Chapter 916: 466: Six Powerhouses! The Peak Showdown

Chapter 916: Chapter 466: Six Powerhouses! The Peak Showdown

The figures that emerged from the crimson mist were all masters ranked in the top thirty on the Points List.

Each one of them had once unleashed strength at the Peak of Pseudo-God.

And what they had in common was that they were all exceptional geniuses never recorded in the initial intelligence on Jue Xing Ancient City.

“Six people joining forces, Moon Blade, it seems you’ve come to know each other?” Li Yuan said indifferently.

From the posture of the six, it was obvious they had gradually encountered each other in the process of pursuing Liu Bing and trusted each other immensely.

Such a team was extremely frightening in strength.

While engaging with Tian Yu Semi-Divine and Lianyun Semi-Divine, although Li Yuan sensed other Semi-Divines entering the range of the Formation,

Li Yuan, fully immersed in combat and locked in a life-and-death struggle, plus the sensory perception partly obscured by the Formation, was unaware of the arrival of such a terrifying group.

However, even if he had been aware, Li Yuan would still have chosen to slay Tian Yu Semi-Divine.

Six unparalleled Semi-Divines? Li Yuan was not the slightest bit afraid.

“Xu Yuan, don’t play dumb,” the dirty-looking girl said with a grin: “It seems, you and Liu Bing are on the same side?”

“I just asked some running Semi-Divines, were Lianyun Semi-Divine and Tian Yu Semi-Divine the ones obstructing you?”

“In such a short time, the two of you working together actually forced Lianyun Semi-Divine and Tian Yu Semi-Divine to teleport away, quite impressive.”

“But we six are not comparable to just those two.”

“Even if you are strong, you’re definitely no match for the six of us.”

“Hand over the Ancestral Realm Order, and I’ll let you go,” Moon Blade said while staring at Li Yuan: “That way, you can still seize the later Ancestral Realm Orders, otherwise blame us for being merciless.”

Li Yuan and Liu Bing exchanged glances.

Listening to Moon Blade, he seemed not to know Tian Yu Semi-Divine had been slain?

That’s right!

Once the Ancestor Realm List rankings are fixed, even if a Semi-Divine dies, unless witnessed firsthand, others would not know.

And with the Formation shrouding everything, it blocked Li Yuan and Liu Bing from sensing the area, also preventing Moon Blade, Yu Ting, and others from seeing the scene of Li Yuan killing Tian Yu Semi-Divine.

In other words, the six top-tier Semi-Divines in front of him were not aware of Li Yuan’s true strength.

“Moon Blade, from the sound of it, do those five listen to you?” Li Yuan said, his mind also racing with many speculations.

Are these six people from the same power?

Breeding so many top talents at once… There’s absolutely no chance it’s a hidden power from this world.

“Xu Yuan, you talk too much.”

“One sentence, hand over the Ancestral Realm Order, and you will definitely be safe,” the dirty-looking girl stared at Li Yuan.

“The Ancestral Realm Order is in my hands, you haven’t even asked me yet, what if I won’t hand it over?” Liu Bing said with a cold laugh.

“Liu Bing, the Holy Blood Heavenly Serpent bloodline is indeed powerful, and your Escape Skill is unparalleled in the world, but the premise is that you haven’t been trapped by us,” the dirty-looking girl laughed: “But since you’ve been trapped, do you still think you can escape?”

“Hmph!”

Liu Bing sneered: “I really want to try, the Ancestral Realm Order is in my hands, come and take it if you can.”

In dealing with Xu Yuan, Liu Bing was very affectionate.

But towards outsiders, Liu Bing was inherently full of pride.

“Stop wasting words.”

“Moon Blade!”

“Move aside or die!” Li Yuan’s icy gaze swept across Moon Blade, Hua Zhongyun, Yu Ting, and the other six.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

One could see numerous Yellow Dragons flying out from Li Yuan’s body, with the Nine Dragons Xuan Armor as a top-grade Pseudo-God Artifact, its might was brought to the utmost by Li Yuan. Combined with the Heaven and Earth River Domain, each Yellow Dragon possessed terrifying strength.

In fact, the nine great Yellow Dragons were merely a garnish.

What was truly fierce and aggressive was that earthy yellow airflow, which was like a river flowing overwhelmingly, madly striking in all directions.

“Little Ice, you run away as soon as you get the chance.”

The instant the Heaven and Earth River Domain erupted, Li Yuan’s voice also echoed in Liu Bing’s mind: “I’ll hold them back.”

“Big Brother, no, I can be of use too,” Liu Bing hurriedly responded.

“Don’t worry,” Li Yuan transmitted with a smile: “You’ve seen your big brother’s strength before, just six of them… just the right number to hone my Spear Technique.”

“Even if I can’t win, escaping won’t be a problem.”

“But if you continue to stay here, more people will come after you, like Ning Chi, Jing Kui, Dong Pan, Kuang Fu one by one… then I really won’t be able to withstand it.”

“Tian Yu is already dead, I’m only able to entangle a group.”

“There’s only a little over two hours left, your chances of successfully entering the core of the Ancestral Realm are very high.” Li Yuan earnestly transmitted.

Li Yuan was telling the truth.

Fighting against three or five top Demigods, Li Yuan still had some confidence… but against ten or twenty? That would be beyond his power.

Liu Bing gritted her teeth, but reason told her that finding a way to escape first was the right choice.

It seemed slow to say, but the exchange between Li Yuan and Liu Bing happened in an instant.

“Boom!”

“Boom!” The terrifying Heaven and Earth River Domain then struck the six top Demigods, their might endless, making all six of them feel an astonishing pressure.

“What a strong Domain,” Moon Blade’s complexion slightly changed.

“This strong?” The burly strong man and the young man in the star-embroidered robe both changed expressions.

“Xu Yuan’s Domain, stronger than before.”

“Another breakthrough?” Hua Zhongyun, Dao Ying, and Yu Ting, the three who had previously fought Li Yuan, were even more astonished.

They knew before that Li Yuan’s Domain was extremely strong, but now it was even stronger.

What they didn’t know was that Li Yuan’s breakthrough in Spear Technique was an essential breakthrough in understanding the integration of the three great Laws… A breakthrough in realm naturally made his Domain, Escape Skill, and many other aspects stronger.

“Supress!”

“Painting Realm open!” The extremely beautiful woman, ‘Hua Zhongyun,’ made her move. Her pure white jade-like palms spread open, immediately causing the surrounding void to emerge with waves of illusory scenes.

Illusory, yet incredibly real.

In an instant, the world where Li Yuan, Liu Bing, Moon Blade, and the other eight powerhouses stood seemed like an exquisite painting scroll.

And this Painting Realm was able to affect space, subsequently impacting Li Yuan’s Domain, visibly reducing the might of Li Yuan’s Heaven and Earth River Domain at a noticeable speed.

“Hm?”

“A Space Domain secret technique? Truly remarkable!” Li Yuan thought to himself.

This was his second encounter with Hua Zhongyun, and he was very clear about how special her methods were.

Li Yuan understood well, that below the level of a True God, most Domains were essentially ‘material Domains’.

But the further one cultivated, Domains often divided into three types.

One type is the material Domain, for example, the Heaven and Earth River, which is cast within normal space, relying on material as the foundation, extremely powerful when might is intense enough to sweep away everything, but it must follow the rules of real-world materials.

One type is the Void Realm Domain. For instance, the ‘Dream Realm Stone’ that Li Yuan has been pondering belongs to this category. When cultivated to the extreme, it can stretch across billions of miles and descend in an instant, transcending the speed of light, yet it is illusive, affecting the hearts of countless beings but difficult to impact reality.

Another type is the Spatial Realm Domain.

The ‘Painting Realm’ deployed by Hua Zhongyun belongs to the Spatial Realm Domain—it is a domain that exists between the virtual and the real, and is a part of the Space Law. It can affect both the Void Realm Domain and the material domain… It merges into the space itself.

Of course, the ‘Painting Realm’ that Hua Zhongyun used has not yet reached the level of affecting the Void Illusion Realm, but it has already penetrated the spatial layers, able to coexist with the ‘Heaven and Earth River Domain’ deployed by Li Yuan, and can also collide and dissolve into each other.

Up to this moment in the Ancestor Realm battle.

Against top-tier demigods one after another, the domain techniques used by Hua Zhongyun are the most special Li Yuan has ever seen.

“Suppress!”

The moment Hua Zhongyun made his move, Yu Ting also swiftly took action, birthing lotuses one after another in the void, the flowing radiance fiercely colliding with the Heaven and Earth River Domain.

In an instant.

The combined outburst from Hua Zhongyun and Yu Ting matched Li Yuan in terms of domain prowess.

“How vast the world is.”

“Everyone’s techniques differ. Even though I possess the Nine Layer Domain Star Technique, some top-tier demigods, when cooperating with each other, can match up to me,” Li Yuan reflected inwardly, never underestimating any opponent.

However, even if the domains didn’t produce success, Li Yuan wasn’t concerned in the slightest.

Fighting these top-tier demigods, the domain was just an auxiliary after all; he still had to fight with the Long Spear in his hands.

Boom!

Li Yuan burst forth like a fierce wind, unleashing ‘Void Travel,’ his speed soaring terrifyingly fast as he lunged towards Dao Ying at one side.

Whoosh!

Liu Bing was quick to follow, intending to break directly out of the encirclement.

“Attack.” Moon Blade finally gave the order.

Boom! The towering and robust man, along with the young man in the starry robe beside him, moved at the same time.

The starry robed young man waved his hand, and a giant Bright Moon emerged behind him. As the Bright Moon bloomed, it fired dazzling spear lights of stars.

The Star Light, like chains, could suppress the heavens.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The speed of the Star Lights was astonishing, as if they possessed an invisible pulling force, landing instantaneously on Li Yuan and Liu Bing, greatly reducing their speed.

“A Binding Nine Layer Star Technique, ‘Star Moon Light’?” Li Yuan’s pupils shrank slightly in surprise.

Star Technique is broadly categorized.

Enlightenment, Body Refining, Domain, Escape Skill, Phantom Body…many categories, and the top geniuses, considering their own futures, mostly would not choose overly niche Nine Layer Star Techniques.

Binding Star Techniques? Few powerhouses would cultivate them, as the Star Meridian is limited and can be completely replaced by Divine Artifacts and similar things.

But at the same time!

Once such a Nine Layer Star Technique is utilized, its might is also remarkably astounding; it is akin to a ‘light,’ and its binding power far surpasses that of Divine Artifact Chains.

“No wonder they said Little Ice can’t escape.”

“Yu Ting is good at domains, Hua Zhongyun wields the Painting Realm, plus this Zhan Xing Semi-Divine’s Binding Star Technique, their cooperation indeed troublesome,” Li Yuan realized the adversary’s formidable nature.

Six such top-tier demigods indeed pose a greater threat than six top-tier demigods who only excel in Body Refining Star Techniques and direct frontal assaults.

“Kill!” While maintaining his domain, Yu Ting waved his War Spear, blocking Liu Bing’s path.

Yu Ting’s speed was astonishing, and his Halberd Technique had changed, managing to completely entangle Liu Bing even under the pressure of the Star Light.

Liu Bing’s greatest strength was speed.

Yet, completely restrained by Zhan Xing’s Star Technique.

“Boom~” Both sides fought at lightning speed, and Liu Bing was completely suppressed.

“Kill!”

The eyes of Dao Ying, sharp as an eagle’s, turned into a streak of light, his saber cleaved the void, fiercely striking at the oncoming figure—Li Yuan.

“Scram!”

Despite being bound by the starlight pressure, Li Yuan’s speed was still terrifyingly fast, with the Silver Moon Spear in his hand sweeping across in anger.

“Bang~”

The Long Spear traversed the vast sky, directly colliding with the Combat Saber.

The color drained from Dao Ying’s face.

He felt an overwhelming force assailing him, causing him to retreat unwillingly, completely suppressed by Li Yuan.

“So strong?”

“This impact force, is much stronger than the last time we fought.” Dao Ying found it hard to believe and communicated through a transmitted message: “Be careful, Xu Yuan has become much more powerful.”

Boom!

The burly and strong Wu Qing, now a Semi-Divine, also stepped forward to block Li Yuan’s path, wielding a Bronze Long Stick.

“Whoosh!” The Long Stick came attacking, tearing apart heaven and earth, striking toward Li Yuan.

“Go away!”

Li Yuan wielded his Spear Light magnificently, the terrifying spear shadow collided with the Long Stick, once again blasting it backwards.

“Kill!” Hua Zhongyun maintained the Painting Realm while her body transformed into four arms, each palm radiating a cyan light. Four palms struck simultaneously, turning into beams of light that bombarded Li Yuan.

“Huff!” Just after sending Wu Qing Semi-Divine flying, Li Yuan turned back and thrust his spear, the tip slightly twisting.

Upon contact with the cyan palms, it burst forth in an instant, tearing through the palm’s defense, blood drenched, causing the beautiful young girl’s complexion to slightly change.

She was much weaker in head-to-head combat and quickly retreated backward.

Meanwhile, Dao Ying and Wu Qing stepped forward to fight again, barely managing to resist Li Yuan.

“This is against the heavens.”

“Is Xu Yuan’s strength in direct combat this strong?”

“Even after negating his Domain advantage, he’s still this terrifying?” These supreme geniuses from Wandao Divine Court were all astonished.

In a battle against the three top Semi-Divine, Hua Zhongyun, Dao Ying, and Wu Qing, Li Yuan alone suppressed them.

Boom!

With a movement, Li Yuan instantly charged like lightning at the star-clothed man, ‘Zhan Xing’.

He had realized, to facilitate Liu Bing’s escape, defeating Semi-Divine Zhan Xing was key.

That Nine Layer Star Technique “Star Moon Light” posed too great a threat.

“Xu Yuan.”

“Your opponent is me.” The filthy young girl who had been holding a saber finally made her move.

Clang!

The Moon Blade’s saber suddenly unsheathed from her embrace.

An overwhelming surge of blood-red light erupted, as if it intended to split the entire world, slashing towards Li Yuan.
