Chapter 373: Battle of the Two Brothers
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Archaic Vermillion Bird’s Four-Fold Barrage clashed with the Qilin Technique. These two fought until the heavens and earth became dim, and even deities seemed to be howling. The surroundings were covered in boundless mist, and all types of void figures swirled about.
At this stage of the great battle, all types of irregular scenes appeared. It was as if an ancient ghost had escaped from the underworld. Shadows could be seen everywhere, and weeping sounds could be heard.
One could clearly see those strange creatures appear, tangling around those two. From time to time, the creatures would throw themselves forward and even threaten the two teenagers.
When everyone saw this, their hearts went cold. Then, some of them were horrified as if they thought of something. They frowned slightly and said with a trembling voice, “Could it be that the legend is true?”
“In the divine level arena battle, the ones who died were all the most powerful heroes of past generations, known as undying war spirits. Even though their bodies died, there was still a type of resentment and unwillingness. When this type of great battle is carried out again, they will appear and participate.”
When this rumor was brought up, it immediately triggered a huge commotion. Many people spoke quietly, their eyes widening. They carefully stared at those void figures, feeling their scalps go numb.
In the distant past, in different eras, just how many outstanding young talents like Shi Yi and Shi Hao had died here?
Without a doubt, if nothing unexpected happened, either Shi Yi or Shi Hao would become one of them today.
When they thought of this possibility, everyone sucked in a cold breath of air. Just the thought of his type of heavenly talent was terrifying! It truly was an unmatched aptitude!
A malicious spirit with disheveled hair pounced on Shi Yi. Its entire body was covered in scales, and its tyrannical aura pierced into one’s bones.
Bang!
Shi Yi snorted. While resisting Shi Hao, he swept out with his foot, kicking the spirit’s claw and arm. An expanse of dazzling light erupted, and that figure scattered, disappearing just like that.
“A tangible substance?!” When everyone saw this, their fine hairs all stood on end. It was confirmed. The creatures could indeed interfere with great battles. They were ancient heroic spirits.
At the same time, Shi Hao also encountered disturbances, and he was attacked by two at a time. One of them was a Green Luan, while the other was a Flame Python. The green bird’s body was like green gold, flickering with an ice-cold luster. The scarlet python’s body was like lava that released blazing multicolored light. They were pouncing over one after another.
This made him wonder if it was because he had previously killed this type of creature in the real world, which was why the ghosts he encountered here also came after him.
Shi Hao didn’t feel any fear. At the end of the day, they weren’t living creatures. They were a failure from the ancient era and had long died in battle. Their magical force and other things had scattered into ashes, so the power of their attack was limited.
Boom!
His entire body emitted Vermilion Bird flames, carrying a formidable aura as he pounced forward. With a rumbling sound, two ancient heroic spirits were ignited, turning into torches before they were incinerated.
Bang!
In the next moment, Shi Yi’s palm turned purple, and an ancient symbol appeared. It carried supreme divine might as it fiercely rushed over. Floating light surged within his palm and fingers, and dozens of purple Qilins immediately appeared in the surroundings.
This was an absolute killing move, known as a taboo within the Qilin Technique. It was rumored that if it was perfectly intact when used by the ancestral Qilin, it could crush large amounts of gods and devils!
Shi Hao moved like a dragon, rushing over with extreme speed. He didn’t dodge at all, scarlet symbols flickering about his entire body. He was vigorous like a human-shaped Vermillion Bird. With a long roar, he launched a fierce attack.
He didn’t defend himself as he performed the Archaic Vermilion Bird’s Four Strikes to the limit, fighting against Shi Yi. As soon as the two met, there were astonishing noises.
Bang!
Purple light flickered between the two palms. One was sparkling and translucent, and the other was bright red like blood. They collided violently, and the Sky Battlefield would explode from time to time as if it were about to collapse.
“It’s so powerful!”
Everyone sucked in a cold breath of air. The confrontation was too terrifying.
Clang! Clang!
When the two of them clashed, it was as if a divine drum was rumbling. It sounded like the weapon refinement room of the Heavenly Realm that had penetrated through the world. The clanging sound of battle spread through one’s bones and into one’s soul.
Everyone’s eyes were dazzled as they watched. As the two individuals flew about, their hearts rose and fell, feeling indescribable shock. A single young supreme being like this would be enough for a clan!
They were brothers from the same family, yet in the end, they fought a life-and-death battle like this.
Boom!
Shi Yi’s head was upside down as he dove down from the sky. There were dozens of Qilins around him, and he was using the most powerful killing move. His aura was terrifying beyond comparison!
It was as if that pair of hands were pushing a wheel of destiny as it smashed toward Shi Hao. This was known as the Qilin Disk in ancient times. Anyone who was grazed by it wouldn’t even have a corpse left.
This was the first time Shi Hao’s expression changed. His entire body was fiery red as he quickly moved to the side, avoiding Shi Yi’s most powerful attack.
Shi Yi’s killing technique brushed past, landing on the faint golden battlefield. With a deafening sound, it smashed this place apart, almost sinking the stage.
Everyone was shocked. The Sky Battlefield was destroyed?! Shi Yi’s combat strength was incredible!
Shi Yi was upside down, and when his attack missed, the Qilin Disk smashed into the faint golden foundation stone, but it didn’t sink just like that. He was extremely flexible, and he quickly stopped himself. One of his hands pressed the ground, and his entire body went horizontal. Then, he swept across the arena.
With a bang, rubble flew everywhere. The golden foundation stone exploded. Shi Yi’s body was indestructible, and it quickly lashed toward Shi Hao like a whip.
During this process, there were several dozen Qilins around him. This was the same as adding Qilin’s power to him, allowing him to possess incomparable power.
Shi Hao’s eyes emitted cold light. His essence energy was highly concentrated, and with a light jump, he soared into the sky. Then, he fiercely stepped down toward Shi Yi.
The strike was incomparably experienced and vicious. It avoided the radiance and directly struck at Shi Yi’s vital part!
Whoosh…
A wave of violent winds appeared, howling between heaven and earth. The golden cornerstones on the ground collapsed and were swept into the sky. Shi Yi was like a spinning top as he spun around. Then, he rushed into the sky, brushing past Shi Hao’s feet and avoiding that attack.
Moreover, he quickly made an attack. The Qilin Step appeared again. This time he continuously stepped forward. Every time he stepped down, heaven and earth would resonate.
Boom!
This time, he took eight steps, which was even more terrifying than last time. He rushed in front of Shi Hao, shaking the latter until his blood surged. Blood flowed out from the corners of his lips.
Moreover, there was a divine disk in Shi Yi’s hands. It was a Qilin disk that could suppress and kill gods and devils. It had appeared again and was smashing at Shi Hao.
Shi Hao faced it head-on. He quickly backed up, avoiding the fatal blow.
However, Shi Yi moved extremely quickly as if he were an exiled immortal. His clothes fluttered about, and his hands were like pillars that supported the heavens. The divine disk in his hands quickly pressed over, incomparably grand.
Boom!
Suddenly, he flung out the Qilin Disk, almost striking Shi Hao. The disk flew far away, smashing through several dozen fences. The Sky Battlefield was ruined beyond recognition.
Just as everyone thought that this dangerous confrontation was finally going to ease up a bit, killing intent rose again.
Shi Hao’s eyes narrowed. Just as he avoided the Qilin Disk, he released a breath of relief. On the other side, Shi Yi’s hands reached out, and his upper body leaned forward as if he wanted to snap Shi Hao’s waist.
Shi Hao suddenly reached out his hand, trying to strike Shi Yi’s head.
However, Shi Yi suddenly kicked over. It was just too fast. His right leg kicked backward like a scorpion’s tail, vicious and precise.
Amid the whooshing sounds, several dozen Qilins followed. That leg struck over, as fast as lightning.
Bang!
Shi Hao used all of his speed to retreat. The Qilins brushed past him, not touching his body, but that scorpion-tail-like leg directly struck his shoulder.
This kick contained Shi Yi’s entire essence energy. The divine force was incomparably boundless. This was a fatal blow, vicious and steady. The style matched Shi Yi’s character.
Even if a piece of divine gold was kicked by that force, it would deform, to the extent where it might even break. That was because the power of this kick was too great.
Shi Hao flew outward, a mouthful of blood spraying out from his mouth. He sighed inwardly. This time, he was careless. Meanwhile, Shi Yi was an unprecedented opponent. He was too strong, and his methods were vicious. He was experienced and had definitely undergone incredible tempering.
His shoulder was in intense pain, immediately becoming red and swollen. His joints cracked, symbols erupting with radiance.
“Oh no! Shi Hao’s shoulder was broken!”
Everyone cried out in alarm, all of them widening their eyes. Was this battle going to end?
Even the supreme experts on the war chariots stood up. Their eyes flickered with radiance as they stared at the Sky Battlefield. They were all surprised.
“Shi Yi is indeed formidable.” Grandma Xihua was all smiles as she stood at Fairy Yue Chan’s side. She was pleased.
“He’s worthy of being the Unmatched Lord. He’s the best!” Beside the large golden spider, a few people were amazed and nodded in unison.
“Father, is he going to lose? Is there any way to save him?” Raging flames surged. Huo Ling’er looked shocked as she asked the Fire Emperor for guidance.
At this moment, many creatures looked over. Many people felt like this battle was likely going to end soon. The sound of bones cracking was too loud. With an arm broken, how was Shi Hao supposed to fight?
“Little brother, you have to be careful.” Shi Yi spoke with ridicule to humiliate Shi Hao.
While speaking, he turned into a streak of purple lightning and rushed over. Since he already had the advantage, he naturally had to make the first move and seize this opportunity to kill Shi Hao.
With a boom, Shi Yi’s might become even greater. He slaughtered his way over while carrying overflowing divine might. His palms and fingers were like millstones as they smashed toward his opponent.
Shi Hao’s eyes flourished with radiance. He didn’t retreat but faced the attack head-on. His entire body was on fire, and the Vermilion Bird’s flames surged as if they were going to burn down the nine heavens!
“Has he gone mad? He’s going to give up one of his arms to fight the enemy until both sides suffer?” Many people cried out in alarm.
Shi Hao’s arm that was kicked moved like a soft cotton. His other hand struck toward Shi Yi’s head.
“Wait, something’s not right!” Immediately afterward, everyone widened their eyes.
Shi Yi was also horrified. He felt that something was extremely dangerous and very wrong.
The sound of bones cracking was ear-splitting. Shi Hao’s soft arm suddenly became taut and straight. It immediately recovered its powerful vitality as it smashed toward the enemy’s neck.
“Previously, his arm wasn’t broken. Only his joints were dislocated. How powerful! His body was actually unaffected!” The Fire Emperor sat on the carriage and was amazed.
Only when he pointed out like this did everyone come to a sudden realization. Then, they were incomparably shocked. Just how terrifying was his physical body? It was unaffected even after suffering such a fatal blow.
Boom!
Immediately afterward, Shi Hao erupted with power, turning into a humanoid Vermilion Bird. He attacked fiercely, seizing the initiative and releasing a thunderous rage.
Bang!
His fist smashed toward the space between Shi Hao’s brows, but in the end, it was stopped by Shi Yi’s arms. Then, he spun around, legs kicking forward.
It was like an endless illusion. It was scarlet red like blood, and the soles of his feet were like blades. Shi Hao was like lightning as he pressed down on Shi Yi’s head, continuously kicking out.
Bang!
In the end, Shi Yi was sent flying. His chest received a kick, and he coughed out large mouthfuls of blood. It was clear that there was a dent in that area, and his bones were broken.
“Again!”
Shi Hao’s entire body surged with spiritual essence. Scarlet multicolored light rose like flames as he swooped down again.
“Heavens, Shi Hao e is too formidable. Just now, he suffered a loss, and now, he went berserk. Shi Yi was actually injured!”
“The battle situation has reversed! Shi Yi is in danger!”
Right when everyone cried out in alarm, the battle situation changed again. Shi Hao operated the Archaic Vermillion Bird’s Four-Fold Barrage to perfection. Even if a true Vermillion Bird appeared, it might not necessarily be as tyrannical as him!
He continuously struck out, and fiery light overflowed into the heavens. Those palms were scarlet red like jade, and they continuously collided with Shi Yi. With a thump, they once again struck Shi Yi, making a crisp sound.
Shi Yi’s shoulder was struck, and he was sent flying again. He coughed out blood from his mouth.
The golden spider’s expression became rigid. The expressions of the creatures from the Demonic Spirit Lake were all dark and gloomy. Everyone’s faces were livid. Just now, they were still discussing fervently, believing that the result was already set in stone, but in the end, the situation was reversed.
“Shi Hao is so powerful!” Grandma Xihua’s expression also changed as she muttered.
Shi Hao moved through the void and quickly approached Shi Yi. He took a step in the air, and like an archaic Vermillion Bird, he struck toward the great stars of the cosmos!
“Open!”
Shi Yi roared. His right eye shot out a jet-black ray of light, immediately making the entire Sky Battlefield tremble. Even the heavens seemed like they were going to explode.
“So terrifying!” Everyone was shocked. They widened their eyes and looked up in disbelief.
When the great battle reached this point, Shi Yi finally used his forbidden divine ability. This was an instinctive power bestowed upon him by the heavens, known to be glorious and unmatched during the ancient era.
Would Shi Hao be able to stop it? Everyone held their breaths.
