Bang!
Wielding the black heavy spear in his hand, a terrifying aura erupted from Mo Xingtian's frail body at this moment. Dark rays of light sparkled on the surface of the black heavy spear, appearing as if it was about to transform into a demonic dragon that soared into the skies, stirring up the heavens and earth, a sight that would leave one horrified.
Mu Chen's eyes narrowed as he gazed at the black heavy spear in Mo Xingtian's hand. Clearly, he could sense how extraordinary this black heavy spear was. It was definitely an extremely powerful Spiritual Artifact, and from the fluctuations radiating from it, it was extremely likely that it had already reached the level of a peerless rank Spiritual Artifact. A Spiritual Artifact of such a rank was extremely rare even within the Demonic Dragon Palace and the other peak powers. From the looks of it, Mo Xingtian had truly gone all out for the sake of killing him.
"I had originally believed that I would be able to easily finish you off. However, it seems like I was wrong. However, this is good as well. It's been a long time since I've used the 'Devouring Dragon Demonic Spear'. I hope that you'll be able to give it a good time today." Staring at Mu Chen, Mo Xingtian's raspy voice rang out.
"I won't let you down!"
Mu Chen laughed heartily, his laughter akin to thunder. However, not a single trace of laughter could be seen within his scarlet eyes. Instead, they were filled with an icy chill. As his laughter reverberated, he took a step forward, as a giant dragon shadow surfaced beneath his feet. With a swoosh, it tore through the air and appeared right above Mo Xingtian. Hugging the air with both hands, the Great Meru Demonic Pillar ferociously smashed downwards, bringing along an expanse of shadow.
As the shadow enveloped the area, a layer of the earth collapsed.
Raising his head, Mo Xingtian looked towards the descending demonic pillar. All of a sudden, he tightly gripped the heavy spear in his hand. With a step forward, his figure unexpectedly shot forward.
Swish!
Stepping in the air, Mo Xingtian thrust his spear forward. Spear rainbows swept out, akin to the roar of a demonic dragon. Without the slightest bit of retreat, it heavily struck the black demonic pillar.
Dang!
A clear metallic sound rang out, while visible ripples spread across the sky. However, this time around, Mo Xingtian did not end up in the same miserable state as before. Instead, he merely tapped the air with his toes, dispelling the frightening force. His deathly still eyes looked towards Mu Chen, as a hoarse voice rang out, "Is this all the Great Meru Demonic Pillar can do in your hands?"
Without any expression on his face, Mu Chen took a step forward, before the Great Meru Demonic Pillar in his hand instantly rushed towards the sky. As it radiated an ominous aura that blotted the skies, its size instantly expanded. In a short span of a few breaths, it was already a few hundred feet in size. Extending his hands, Mu Chen hugged the demonic pillar from afar, before heavily swinging it down.
Bang!
At this moment, the entire space distorted and the air within a thousand feet exploded. It was like a vacuum zone.
"Dragon's Devour!"
All of a sudden, the demonic spear in Mo Xingtian's hand jerked, as black light that blotted the skies swept out. In the next instant, it flew out from Mo Xingtian's hand. As the dragon roared, black light blossomed, transforming into a gigantic demonic dragon that coiled in the sky. As the demonic dragon coiled, it appeared to cover the heavens and earth.
Roar!
With a roar, the demonic dragon extended its hundred feet long claws, grabbing onto the descending demonic pillar. At the same time, its gigantic dragon tail brought along frightening power as it ruthlessly swung towards the Great Meru Demonic Pillar.
Bang!
Bang!
As the two colossal objects brazenly clashed in the sky, frightening energy fluctuations appeared to shatter the surrounding space, causing it to appear exceedingly frightening.
This was a showdown between an Ominous Primordial Artifact and a Peerless Rank Spiritual Artifact!
However, the Immemorial Ominous Weapon was currently in a sealed state. On the other hand, the peerless grade Spiritual Weapon in Mo Xingtian's hands was currently erupting with astonishing power.
Countless experts raised their heads to look at the earth-shattering fight taking place in the sky, as their eyes brimmed with astonishment. Anyone could see that the two people in the sky were brimming with killing intent. Every move they made was filled with killing moves, clearly intending to take the other's life.
However, when they thought about the grudges and grievances between the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy and the Demonic Dragon Palace, they felt relieved. They were originally enemies of life and death. Now that they were facing off against each other, only a fool would show any mercy.
Bang!
Being a peerless grade Spiritual Weapon, the Devouring Dragon Demonic Spear clearly possessed its own spirituality. As long as Mo Xingtian gave the command, it would automatically take action against its opponent. At the same time, the Great Meru Demonic Pillar was an Immemorial Ominous Weapon. Its might was comparable to a genuine Divine Weapon. If not for the fact that it was sealed, a single smash from it would have been able to shatter the Devouring Dragon Demonic Spear. Therefore, faced against the attacks from the Devouring Dragon Demonic Spear, the Great Meru Demonic Pillar seemed to have been stimulated. Fiendish aura surged out as it furiously smashed towards the demonic dragon formed by the Devouring Dragon Demonic Spear.
Under the attacks from the Great Meru Demonic Pillar, the gigantic demonic dragon emitted waves of howls of pain. No matter what, a skinny camel was still bigger than a horse. Even though the Great Meru Demonic Pillar was sealed, its power was far from what a peerless grade Spiritual Weapon could compare to. Therefore, in this exchange of attacks, the Devouring Dragon Demonic Spear gradually fell into a disadvantageous position.
Raising his head, Mo Xingtian looked towards the Devouring Dragon Demonic Spear, which was gradually falling into a disadvantageous position. Turning his gaze towards Mu Chen, he gave a faint smile and said, "Now that you no longer have the Great Meru Demonic Pillar, how are you going to contend against me?"
The reason why he had brought out the Devouring Dragon Demonic Spear was for the sake of restraining the Great Meru Demonic Pillar. As long as Mu Chen didn't have such a frightening ominous weapon in his hands, Mo Xingtian's fear and dread towards him would clearly decrease.
Perhaps the Devouring Dragon Demonic Spear would not be able to delay the Great Meru Demonic Pillar for too long. However, this amount of time would be more than enough for him to finish off Mu Chen.
Swish!
As his voice rang out, his figure had already transformed into a black wisp of smoke, shooting towards Mu Chen at a speed akin to a spectre.
Mu Chen's eyes narrowed. With a shift of his body, the shadow of a dragon surfaced beneath his feet, as he abruptly retreated.
"I'm afraid that you won't be able to get rid of me with your Dragon Soaring Technique."
With an indifferent smile, Mo Xingtian took a step forward. In that instant, his body seemed to turn somewhat illusory. With a shiver, he disappeared.
Seeing this, Mu Chen's pupils instantly contracted.
Bang!
At seemingly the same instant, black lightning erupted from Mu Chen's body. Lightning arcs danced about, while two lightning runes surfaced on his chest. In an instant, he had activated his Lightning God's Physique.
Bang!
At the instant when Mu Chen activated his Lightning God's Physique, a palm appeared to pierce through space from behind him. Bringing along Spiritual Energy that blotted the skies, it heavily patted down towards the vital points on Mu Chen's back without the slightest bit of mercy.
Without turning around, Mu Chen had similarly sent a palm towards his back.
Bang!
As the two palms collided, frightening fluctuations swept out.
Mu Chen's figure flew backwards, while a trace of blood surfaced from the corner of his mouth. At the moment of head-on collision with Mo Xingtian, he was finally able to sense how powerful the latter was. The boundless Spiritual Energy was akin to an ocean, seemingly boundless and endless. Furthermore, Mo Xingtian's Spiritual Energy was clearly much purer and stronger than ordinary Spiritual Energy.
This should be due to him having passed through his Spiritual Energy Disaster.
As Mu Chen's figure flew backwards, a chilling glint appeared within his eyes. Without making any adjustments to his breathing, ignoring the waves of pain radiating from his arm, he abruptly formed a seal with his hands, causing boundless Spiritual Energy to explosively erupt from his body.
Behind him, a stretch of starry sky surfaced once again, with four gigantic beastial figures rapidly condensing and taking shape.
After all, Mu Chen was only at the Heavenly Completion Stage Initial Phase. Even though his body was currently brimming with fiendish energies, it was impossible for him to obtain the slightest bit of advantage in a head-on clash with Mo Xingtian. Therefore, if he wanted to obtain victory, he would have to rely on the advantage of his Deity Tier Spiritual Art.
"You're going to use this move again?"
Looking at the starry sky behind Mu Chen, Mo Xingtian gave an indifferent smile. "This move might be slightly useful against Liu Ying. However, I'm afraid that it won't pose any threat to me."
Remaining expressionless, Mu Chen ignored Mo Xingtian's words as his hand seal changed.
Roar!
As they roared, four gigantic beastial figures suddenly shot out from the starry sky, before rushing straight towards Mo Xingtian.
Seeing this, Mo Xingtian indifferently shook his head as Spiritual Energy that blotted the skies radiated out from his body. Akin to an ocean, it was vast and mighty, bringing along the might to crush mountains.
Mu Chen's gaze was ice-cold as his hands suddenly formed an extremely complicated and unfamiliar seal.
All of a sudden, the four beastial figures roared towards the sky, while rays of brilliance shot out from their bodies. From afar, they appeared to have transformed into a gigantic thousand-metre wide glowing seal. Within the glowing seal, the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird and Black Tortoise occupied four corners, while vast and mighty Spiritual Energy radiated from them, appearing as if they wanted to seal the heavens and earth.
"Four Gods Constellation Scripture, Four Gods Heaven Sealing Seal!"
Humm!
Humming noises erupted from the gigantic divine seal, before transforming into a ray of brilliance. Hiding the skies and covering the earth, it pressed down, causing the Spiritual Energy in the world to flee and scatter away.
As the divine seal enveloped down, the faces of Xia Youran, Liu Ying and the rest started to faintly change. This was especially the case for the latter, whose eyes were filled with shock, before clenching her teeth in anger. Exactly how many trump cards does this brat have hidden!
Bang!
As the divine seal enveloped down, the torrential Spiritual Energy sweeping out from Mo Xingtian's body was completely suppressed and scattered. Under the suppression of the divine seal, the brilliance that blotted the skies started to weaken, appearing as if it had been sealed.
Raising his head, Mo Xingtian looked towards the divine seal that was rapidly suppressing him, as well as the torrential Spiritual Energy that was rapidly dissipating under its suppression. Finally, some solemn fluctuations started to surface within his deathly still eyes. In the next instant, he gave a soft sigh, his sigh still brimming with indifference and killing intent.
"You're actually able to reach such a level at the Heavenly Completion Stage Initial Phase? No wonder Hokuang Reiwon holds you in such high regard!"
"If you're allowed to continue your cultivation, I'm afraid that in less than a year's time, there'll be no one within the younger generation of the Northern Heavens Continent that would be able to contend against you!"
"However, I might not give you such an opportunity again!"
All of a sudden, dark-red blood started to flow from the tip of Mo Xingtian's finger, before gently tapping it on his forehead. As the blood flowed down, traces of blood started to climb, bit by bit, into his deathly still eyes. Faintly, they seemed to transform into a strange and malevolent blood rune on his face.
Seeing the strange actions of Mo Xingtian, Xia Youran and the rest were first startled, before seeming to have thought of something, causing their faces to instantly turn deathly pale.
"That's the Dragon Killing Demonic Rune?"
(Thousands and thousands of words condensed into a single word of thanks. Happy New Year everyone!)
