Xuanwu War Sovereign

The Celestial Punishment Hall was originally a place dedicated to punishing the unruly and defiant students of All Stars Academy who had committed grave mistakes.

Later, the Celestial Punishment Hall gradually carved out its own path.

Some exceptionally talented geniuses, by studying the path of heavenly punishment, managed to grasp their own Divine Abilities. They integrated these into their personal Martial Dao, forming various Celestial Punishment Martial Arts that were exceedingly lethal and terrifyingly powerful.

To observe the way of heaven, to execute the punishment of heaven.

The path Young Emperor Jin comprehended was the path of golden punishment.

The Martial Arts he specialized in was the Golden Emperor Godslaying Technique. This was a High-level Technique of the Spirit Martial Level, and its power was astonishing.

From this, Young Emperor Jin comprehended an astounding Martial Arts Divine Ability, which he named the White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash.

"Qin Feng, I admit you’re a genius, able to fight off the killing blows of a Condensing Vein Realm expert while at the Martial Arts Ninth Layer Heaven. But I’m here to tell you today that there’s always someone stronger. As much of a genius as you are, with your exceptional aptitude, you can still fall easily. Not every genius has a smooth journey. Since ancient times, the number of young geniuses who have perished is beyond count!"

A blazing golden radiance erupted from Young Emperor Jin’s body. The brilliant golden light gathered above his head, exuding a sharp aura. A single wisp of its energy seemed capable of cleaving mountains and rivers.

Once this golden light fully erupted, the result would be utterly terrifying!

Seeing this golden light appear, the expressions of Baiyun and Yun Mo changed drastically. Baiyun sent a mental transmission, "Qin Feng, be careful! This is Young Emperor Jin’s signature Divine Ability, the White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash! This Divine Ability can absorb the Geng Metal Qi from the heavens and earth, allowing him to command the Geng Metal Power. It’s exceptionally sharp and extremely terrifying!"

Baiyun’s face was filled with worry. Young Emperor Jin had been famous for a long time, dominating the five kingdoms, and was a prominent figure even among the six great Punishment Masters.

Relying on this Divine Ability, Young Emperor Jin had even slain "Man Slaughterer," the infamous and long-established bandit king of Wuyun Kingdom.

"Man Slaughterer" rampaged across the Wuyun Kingdom, coming and going like the wind. He had even killed an expert of the Second Secret Realm of the Condensing Vein Realm who had mastered Martial Arts Divine Abilities.

Even a person like that had fallen at Young Emperor Jin’s hands!

The moment the golden light appeared, Qin Feng’s Divine Soul trembled. He felt an immense threat, as if a sharp sword were hanging right over him.

It was like standing on a celestial execution platform, with the Godslaying Axe hanging above his head.

Qin Feng was locked on by this Divine Ability. He felt that no matter where he ran, he could not escape the golden light’s fatal strike.

’A Metal Attribute Divine Ability!’ A terrifying pressure weighed on his heart, and Qin Feng’s expression darkened.

Among the basic, Mutated, powerful, and supreme Attributes, although the Metal Attribute was merely a basic one, its offensive power was exceptionally tyrannical.

For Young Emperor Jin to dare name this Martial Arts Divine Ability the White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash, using the title of the White Emperor, it must absolutely be outstanding among all Metal Attribute Divine Abilities!

With a faint, cold smile, an ice-blue light erupted from Qin Feng’s eyes, locking onto Young Emperor Jin.

Second Order Innate Divine Power, Ocean Control!

Qin Feng had a Lifebound Divine Ability as well!

And it was an Innate Divine Ability at that!

The next moment, Young Emperor Jin’s expression changed drastically. The Qi and Blood in his body ran rampant, and wisps of icy frost appeared on his sideburns.

PFFT!

With a muffled groan, the energy around Young Emperor Jin fell into chaos. The golden light gathered above his head shattered, breaking like a sword and emitting the crisp clang of metal.

Young Emperor Jin’s expression changed drastically. He never imagined that Qin Feng, a Martial Artist at the Martial Arts Ninth Layer Heaven, would also possess a Divine Ability.

Furthermore, it was a Tier Two Innate Divine Ability, a level above Tier One.

He had suffered a huge loss in an instant. The blood in his body felt like it had been frozen solid in a flash. If he hadn’t suppressed it with his True Power, he feared he would have turned into a block of ice on the spot.

Young Emperor Jin suppressed the raging fury in his heart. His Golden Emperor True Power surged, melting the ice inside him. In just a few breaths, nearly half of the ice in his body had melted.

But in the next moment, his face suddenly lost all color. He looked up to see a figure pouncing toward him like the Nine Great Divine Dragons.

Go for the kill while he was vulnerable!

Qin Feng charged like a rampaging dragon, drawing the Ancient Sword from his back.

Innate Tide Extinction Fifth Sword!

All of his Innate Primordial True Qi surged into the Ancient Sword. While in mid-air, Qin Feng gripped the hilt with both hands and thrust it forward explosively.

Like a rapidly spinning top!

Fast!

Unimaginably fast!

The sword light burst forth, seeming to pierce even the Void!

In an instant, it was before Young Emperor Jin’s chest! The piercing Sword Qi gave him the terrifying illusion that even his soul was being run through.

HSSS!

Young Emperor Jin sucked in a cold breath. One wrong move had led to a cascade of errors!

It was too late for him to dodge. A flash of fury crossed his eyes as Young Emperor Jin poured all the Golden Emperor True Power in his body into the longsword clutched in his hand.

Gripping it with both hands, he ignored the stabbing pain of his frozen Qi and Blood and desperately threw the greatsword up to block in front of him.

CLANG!

The unparalleled sword light smashed against the greatsword, as if crashing against an incomparably tough reef.

The intangible blade edge scraped past the greatsword, and the Sword Qi surged like a monstrous wave.

BANG!

A tremendous force struck the spine of the blade. Young Emperor Jin couldn’t hold onto his greatsword. The immense force propelled him, sending him flying dozens of yards like a broken doll.

PFFT!

In mid-air, he spat out a mouthful of Blood Qi, along with faintly visible, frozen chunks of blood from his internal organs.

RUMBLE!

His body crashed into Celestial Pool Lake like a cannonball, creating a huge splash and a deafening roar.

"Lord Chief Executioner!" a group of Celestial Punishment Hall disciples cried out, their faces pale.

An Outer Disciple of the Celestial Punishment Hall with a grim expression stepped forward and roared angrily, "Qin Feng, how dare you murder Jin Zhenxing!"

With a flicker, Qin Feng appeared a hundred paces away. His face was pale and his stance was unsteady. The slightest movement sent a wave of weakness through his body, and he could barely hold the Ancient Sword in his hand.

That one sword strike had exhausted all of Qin Feng’s Innate True Qi. The recoil from Young Emperor Jin’s counter-attack on that final blow, in particular, had nearly shaken Qin Feng’s entire body apart.

Young Emperor Jin was unexpectedly formidable!

Even in a situation that should have been certain death, he still had enough strength left to launch a counter-blow against Qin Feng.

Hearing this, Qin Feng swept a cold gaze over the few Celestial Punishment Hall disciples. "Are you all idiots? He was trying to kill me, so I’m not allowed to kill him back?"

The killing intent in Qin Feng’s eyes was piercingly sharp. At that moment, the few Celestial Punishment Hall disciples felt as if they were being stared down by the Death God himself.

The experts felt a chill run through them. Not even the most vicious bandits, who had slaughtered countless people, possessed such a terrifying gaze.

’Does he intend to silence us by killing us all?’ The few Celestial Punishment Hall disciples grew uneasy!

Baiyun and Yun Mo hesitated for a moment before moving to stand by Qin Feng’s side.

This made the Celestial Punishment Hall experts even more wary. Baiyun and Yun Mo were by no means nobodies!

The two women were especially famous for their beauty, with countless pursuers, many of whom were even within the Celestial Punishment Hall.

"Senior Brother Wang Yue, Senior Brother Zhao Kang, what do we do now?" Behind the two Outer Disciples, several Martial Artists from the Celestial Punishment Hall asked, gritting their teeth.

Wang Yue and Zhao Kang looked conflicted.

COUGH, COUGH!

Just then, a fit of coughing came from the lakeside, and Young Emperor Jin crawled out of the water.

Young Emperor Jin’s face was as white as a sheet. His body was emitting cold air as he lay sprawled by the lake, looking exceptionally miserable.

Young Emperor Jin had blocked Qin Feng’s final, fatal sword strike. But the power of that strike was simply too terrifying. Although he had blocked it, his internal organs had been violently shaken.

Young Emperor Jin’s organs had already been injured by Qin Feng’s Divine Ability. Now, having suffered another grievous injury, the cold air seeped into his organs, leaving him with only half a life.

Young Emperor Jin was incredibly tough. He actually clenched his teeth, enduring the pain without letting out a single groan.

"Senior Brother Jin!" Wang Yue and Zhao Kang flickered, hastily dragging Young Emperor Jin out of the lake water. Both shot a hateful glare at Qin Feng.

"Qin Feng, the Celestial Punishment Hall is not finished with you over this!"

A cold glint flashed in Qin Feng’s eyes but vanished in an instant.

The group hurriedly dragged Young Emperor Jin down Heavenly Red Peak.

’Even Young Emperor Jin suffered such a huge loss?’ After the group had left, a handsome youth in aqua-blue robes appeared on a mountain peak not far from Heavenly Red Peak.

The handsome youth stared in the direction of Heavenly Red Peak with astonishment, his eyes filled with a gloomy darkness.
