Gao Yan was already a half-step Emperor, so he could see that Yao Yue was only a late-stage high-grade Yuan Monarch.
Given Yao Yue's strength, he could actually kill a peak Yuan Monarch and a high-grade Yuan Monarch. He was indeed a monster!
However, Gao Yan felt that no matter how powerful he was, he would not be able to withstand a single blow from a half-step Emperor!
"Little Black, Great Master He, step back!
Let me deal with these boastful fellows first! "Yao Yue said in a low voice.
"Boss, I will advance and retreat with you!" Little Black immediately said.
After Little Black obtained the inheritance from the Ancestral Stele, his strength had risen rapidly. Furthermore, he had many Yuan Stones to devour. It would not take long for him to reach the high-grade Yuan Monarch Realm.
Now, with his strength at the peak of the middle-grade Yuan Monarch Realm, he could easily contend with a high-grade Yuan Monarch.
"Great Master Yao, it is all my fault. I am willing to stay and advance and retreat with you!" He Yiqiu was a responsible person.
It was a pity that he was only a middle-grade Yuan Monarch. If he stayed, he would only be a burden to Yao Yue.
"Don't be anxious. I will send all of you on your way one by one!"
Gao Yan said faintly as he waved a yellow fist. This fist contained a powerful emperor aura that condensed the surrounding earth realm's origin energy. It was extremely powerful and was enough to kill any Yuan Monarch.
This fist headed straight for Yao Yue and arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye!
Yao Yue did not seem to have the ability to react. He was still stunned on the spot!
Just as everyone thought that he was going to be hit, he also waved his fist!
Bang!
The two fists collided and produced a shocking explosion.
When the power of the fist force dissipated, Yao Yue was still standing on the spot without moving at all. He had actually blocked the powerful attack of a half-step Ruler.
Gao Yan, Gao Yu, and the others were all shocked. They didn't expect Yao Yue's strength to be so powerful!
"You are able to block my attack with the strength of a high-grade Yuan Monarch!
Looks like you can really compare with those monsters in the hall!
What a pity!
What a pity! "
Gao Yan came back to his senses and sighed. His body flashed as he charged towards Yao Yue. At the same time, he threw out a few more punches. His continuous attacks were getting stronger and stronger!
Every single one of these punches was powerful enough to shatter rocks and shatter mountains. They could instantly kill any king tier!
Yao Yue could clearly sense that the other party was getting serious. He thought to himself, I have to end this quickly so that Little Blackie and Grandmaster He won't be able to escape unscathed!
With this thought in mind, Yao Yue finally activated his Dual King Power, causing his strength to explode.
He took the Traceless Steps and activated the Wind Realm's Origin Energy, raising his speed to the limit.
When he dodged Gao Yan's attack, one of his hands turned into a tiger fist, while the other turned into an eagle claw. Both of them carried a powerful attack towards Gao Yan.
Gao Yan's reaction wasn't slow either. Layers of earthy yellow light enveloped his body, protecting him from Yao Yue's attack.
Bang bang!
Yao Yue's tiger fist and eagle claw landed on these layers of defensive energy, but they were unable to break through them!
The strength of a half-step Emperor isn't just for show! Yao Yue exclaimed inwardly.
"You're still lacking in terms of strength. Take this!" Gao Yan sneered and attacked Yao Yue again.
Stone-Crushing Fist!
This was a high-grade King Skill. Every punch was powerful enough to shatter any rock. Dozens of punches were thrown at the same time, completely enveloping Yao Yue.
Yao Yue was unable to dodge. He continuously sent out palm strikes that resembled waves, blocking the incoming punches.
The two of them instantly engaged in an intense battle, causing heaven and earth to tremble. Loud explosions rang out one after another, attracting the attention of the experts in Rain City.
Many experts were watching from afar, their eyes filled with shock.
"Where are these people from? The shockwaves from their battle are so powerful. It's most likely a battle between half-step Emperors!"
"From the looks of it, they should be half-step Emperors. There's a huge age gap between them, yet that young man already possesses the strength of a half-step Emperor. Could he be a monster from the Cangxuan Palace?"
"Let's watch the show first.
They're probably fighting for revenge. It has nothing to do with us. "
"I think that group of people is from the Cangxuan Palace. Are they mobilizing so many people just for this young man?"
Gao Yu, who was watching the battle from the side, saw that his fourth master was unable to defeat Yao Yue. He ordered, "Go and kill that horse and that old man!"
Gao Yu's goal was to distract Yao Yue so that his fourth master could take advantage of the situation.
"Old man, I'm done playing with you!" Yao Yue shouted. He stomped his foot on the ground and used the true meaning of earth.
The true meaning of earth was a state where the heavens and earth became one. It wasn't something that just anyone could use, not even an Emperor.
This kind of state could only be entered by those with extremely strong comprehension ability.
Those who could comprehend this state would become the strongest among their peers after reaching the Emperor realm.
Yao Yue had been fighting with Gao Yan because he wanted to lure him to the ground. Only then would he be able to unleash the true meaning of earth.
The soil on the ground began to change, and a large amount of soil and stones condensed into a huge palm print that slammed towards Gao Yan.
"What?!" Gao Yan cried out in shock when he saw the powerful stone palm that had suddenly formed.
He didn't dare to hesitate. He immediately counterattacked with his strongest strength, intending to shatter the palm.
However, just as he was about to tire himself out from dealing with the huge stone palm, Yao Yue attacked again.
Whirlwind Finger!
Swish!
A finger radiance with a powerful spiral force shot out from Yao Yue's finger.
By the time Gao Yan reacted, the powerful finger beam had already reached his chest.
Bang!
With a powerful spiral force, the finger light directly pierced through the defensive power of Gao Yan's body, opening a bloody hole in his body, and sent him flying.
Yao Yue didn't chase after Gao Yan. Instead, he turned back and charged toward the Kings who were attacking Xiao Hei and He Yiqiu.
"You'll have to get past me first!"
A loud voice pierced Yao Yue's eardrums. A powerful gust of wind came from his side.
Jiang Tianxing was waving a golden spear and stabbing toward Yao Yue.
Yao Yue was anxious to save Xiao Hei and He Yiqiu. He increased his speed to the maximum and dodged Jiang Tianxing's attack. A long sword covered in flames appeared in his hand as he slashed toward the Kings in front of him.
This long sword was the high-grade Royal Weapon, Dawn Sword, that he had obtained from the auction.
Yao Yue finally used his strongest fire elemental energy attack. Numerous sword rays slashed through the air.
The Kings who were about to surround Xiao Hei and He Yiqiu were scared out of their wits.
They knew how powerful Yao Yue was and didn't dare to fight him head-on. Two of them couldn't even react in time and were cut into pieces by Yao Yue's sword.
Jiang Tianxing attacked from behind. He used his strongest attack, determined to kill Yao Yue with his spear.
Heavenly Reincarnation Spear!
His spear shadows were as dense as raindrops. At the same time, they formed a circle of Reincarnation Spear. The terrifying power of strangulation and assassination combined was enough to shock any half-step Emperor!
This was a true Emperor-level skill. The increase in power was terrifying. It wasn't something an ordinary Emperor-level skill could compare to.
Although Yao Yue was strong, he was still weak in terms of combat skills. Facing such an attack, he had no choice but to use the Divine Phoenix Halberd.
Soaring Phoenix!
Yao Yue waved the Divine Phoenix Halberd. The power of the Demonic Core and Primary Sea gathered on the halberd and attacked Jiang Tianxing.
Rumble! Rumble!
Gold and fire tangled together. The golden whirlpool and the fire Phoenix fought fiercely. The shockwaves within a few hundred meters were everywhere.
Gao Yu and the others retreated. Xiao Hei and He Yiqiu did the same. They were afraid of being hit by the shockwaves.
'This kid is really strong. If we don't kill him today, he'll become a threat in the future!' Gao Yu thought to himself.
While the two were fighting fiercely, Gao Yan had already recovered. He stopped the injuries on his body and took out a high-tier Emperor-level saber. He wanted to join the battle and kill Yao Yue together with Jiang Tianxing.
"I'll chop you into pieces!" Gao Yan roared and slashed down at Yao Yue from the sky.
Mount Tai Crush!
Gao Yan's attack was like a mountain crashing down. It was extremely terrifying.
Yao Yue sensed the danger. After forcing Jiang Tianxing back, he looked up and said, "You don't have the ability to do that!"
Swish!
Two rays of the Fire God's Eyes suddenly burst out, directly attacking Gao Yan who was descending from the sky.
Gao Yan did not expect Yao Yue to be able to use such a strange attack. He was too close to Yao Yue. By the time he noticed the attack, there was no way he could dodge it.
He was hit once again, and a bloody hole appeared in his chest. A different kind of flame started to spread on his body.
"Ahhh!"
Gao Yan screamed again and again. He couldn't get rid of the flames on his body. He turned into a flaming man and fell from the sky.
This was the Crimson Yellow Flame, a terrifying flame from the second layer of the Fire Domain. Even a half-emperor would not be able to extinguish it easily.
Jiang Tianxing took advantage of Yao Yue's distraction to stab his spear at Yao Yue's chest.
Yao Yue could not react in time and was stabbed in the chest by Jiang Tianxing.
Jiang Tianxing thought that Yao Yue was dead for sure, but when his spear reached Yao Yue's chest, it could not pierce through Yao Yue's chest.
'Is he wearing an emperor-grade armor?' Jiang Tianxing wondered.
Just as he was about to pull his spear back, Yao Yue grabbed the spear with one hand and swung the Divine Phoenix Halberd at Jiang Tianxing's head.
Jiang Tianxing jumped in fright. He quickly abandoned his spear and retreated.
Heavenly Halberd Arts, Earth Halberd Stance!
Yao Yue wanted to secure victory with a single strike. He immediately used his strongest halberd art. A powerful halberd light enveloped Jiang Tianxing.
Jiang Tianxing did not have a weapon to block the attack, and he was not as fast as Yao Yue. He could only brace himself and block the attack.
Yao Yue and Jiang Tianxing's battle prowess were about the same, but Yao Yue had too many advantages. His physical body was as tough as a pseudo-Emperor weapon, and the flames he blasted out were a special kind of fire. It was an unchanging law that fire countered metal!
The outcome was clear.
