Xuanwu War Sovereign

In the gully, the four combatants were unaware that hundreds of yards away, a pair of eyes was fixed upon their battle.

She was a tall, graceful woman dressed in green, with an oval face, arching brows, crimson lips, and a cascade of black hair.

She exuded a fresh aura, as if she had merged with the forest itself—an Elf born from the woods.

This woman was none other than Ye Qinghua, the expert from Heaven’s Edge Sea Pavilion whom Jiang Bing’Er had been unable to find.

After witnessing the brutal slaughter of her fellow disciples, Ye Qinghua hadn’t left the forest. Instead, she had crept back, seeking an opportunity for revenge.

But she was alone and outmatched. Unable to face the two Alien Race experts by herself, she had remained hidden, biding her time.

Her eyes fell upon Qin Feng and Jiang Bing’Er.

Yu Gu and Master Qing’s ambush did not surprise Ye Qinghua.

Ye Qinghua saw right through the two Alien Race experts’ scheme. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

’This yin and yang... the myriad paths of yin and yang interweave, smelting all of creation. This is the Yin Yang Battle God Demon Technique. That beast actually managed to cultivate such a Divine Ability. Rumor has it that this technique is related to Yin Yang Reverse Dao, the Supreme Great Divine Ability ranked sixteenth on the Divine Power Ranking. No wonder my sisters couldn’t stop him and were slaughtered!’

Ye Qinghua’s chest rose and fell, her eyes turbulent with emotion.

The Divine Power Ranking listed one hundred Supreme Great Divine Abilities, each possessing world-shattering power.

Yin Yang Reverse Dao was one such Supreme Great Divine Ability, containing the Mystical Meaning of the very Origin of yin and yang.

...

’My Yin Yang Evil Dragon was dodged?’

Yu Gu’s expression changed drastically! A look of utter disbelief flashed in his triangular eyes.

The Yin Yang Battle God Demon Technique was his ultimate trump card. Relying on it, he had defeated many experts from All Stars Academy who were in the Third Secret Realm of the Condensing Vein Realm.

Yet today, it had failed!

"You dare get distracted!"

A black shadow flickered, and Qin Feng appeared before Yu Gu. His five fingers were like iron talons, and as he struck out, it was as if five bolts of lightning shot out to bind Yu Gu.

Blood Prison Shadow Thunder Claw!

After advancing to the Martial Arts Thirteenth Layer, Qin Feng’s greatest reward wasn’t refining that bizarre Seed of Heaven and Earth. It was that after his surging Innate True Qi transformed into Star True Power, he could finally use some of the Martial Skills he had brought to the Great Success stage in his past life.

BAM! BAM! BAM!

His five fingers pierced through Yu Gu’s skin as easily as splitting bamboo. To Yu Gu’s horror, Qin Feng’s hand plunged in and ripped out a turquoise gallbladder.

Streaks of silvery-white lightning erupted, instantly obliterating the gallbladder.

"AAAAARGH!"

With his gallbladder destroyed, Yu Gu didn’t die immediately, but his fate was sealed. The gallbladder is the most vital organ for the Celestial Snake Clan, equivalent to the heart of the Human Race.

"You despicable human! I’ll take you down with me!"

A venomous hatred flashed in Yu Gu’s triangular eyes. His tail whipped upwards as he transformed into a giant serpent with black scales and white rings.

’The last struggle of a cornered beast?’

Qin Feng frowned. A vicious gust of wind hit him as the serpent’s tail coiled around his waist. An immense force pressed in, threatening to crush his every bone and sinew.

ROAR!

Above, the giant serpent opened its maw and lunged, aiming to bite down on Qin Feng’s head!

Startled, Qin Feng quickly jerked his head aside. CRUNCH! It felt as if steel had been driven into his shoulder. A sharp pain shot through him as the giant serpent bit down, its fangs sinking into his collarbone.

CRACK! CREAK!!

At the same time, under the immense pressure, Qin Feng’s bones groaned like bending metal. But to Yu Gu, it felt as if he were wrapped not around a person, but a piece of tempered steel.

Its fangs nearly shattered in its mouth! Waves of excruciating pain shot through its jaw!

"Bite me! It’s useless even if you do!"

Qin Feng sneered, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. He activated the Eight Desolates Undying Profound Technique, and a formidable power surged from his bones and sinews. A silvery-white light flickered across his skin, visible to the naked eye, as the countless bones crushed by the serpent instantly regenerated.

BANG!

A powerful force erupted from his body. A silver light burst from Qin Feng’s eyes, and like a Blast Ape, he began to pry open the serpent’s coils step by step with sheer brute force.

"Black Tortoise Sea-Suppressing Fist!"

Suddenly, Qin Feng’s gaze sharpened. With a thunderous roar, a heaven-shaking power surged forth. The Qi Force around him merged with his Eight Desolates Undying Profound Technique, forming an invisible, colossal Xuanwu that came stomping down.

BOOM!

The ground trembled!

An unstoppable wave of Qi Force erupted from his body. In an instant, with a flash of blood-red light, the giant serpent coiling around him snapped like a rope, breaking into several pieces.

SHRIEK!

With a final, agonized shriek, the giant serpent reverted to its human form and crashed to the ground.

Yu Gu’s form was a gruesome sight; his half-human, half-serpent body lay severed in three or four pieces.

Yu Gu’s Life Force was incredibly tenacious. He didn’t die instantly. His severed body parts thrashed about violently, like squirming eels.

"Yu Gu!"

Hearing the commotion, Master Qing blasted the white-robed girl away with a single move and flashed a hundred paces back. Seeing Yu Gu’s gruesome state, Master Qing shuddered, a chill creeping into his heart.

’Yu Gu was actually defeated!’

’It hasn’t even been twenty breaths, and this Celestial Snake Clan expert, a master of the Yin Yang Battle God Demon Technique, was defeated!’

Master Qing’s expression turned grim. While Yu Gu might not have been in the top ten of the Demon God Temple’s younger generation, he was definitely in the top twenty.

Even he would have had a tough fight against Yu Gu and his Yin Yang Battle God Demon Technique.

And yet Yu Gu was dead!

Dead at the hands of an All Stars Academy expert who only seemed to be at the Martial Arts Thirteenth Layer.

’This is definitely a Demon Level genius.’

’This kid is incredible. He beat Yu Gu to death with his bare hands. I’m no match for him. Discretion is the better part of valor. I’ll report this to the Demon God Temple and let their experts deal with him! I might even get a reward for it, a chance to enter my clan’s Land of Inheritance. My power will soar, and I’ll finally catch up to that arrogant bastard!’

With that thought, Master Qing wasted no time. His figure flashed, transforming into a streak of red light that shot toward the depths of Heaven-Reaching Ridge.

Fire Escape Technique!

This was the Talent Divine Ability of the Golden Flame Lions from the Celestial Lion Race. Its speed was incredible; when Master Qing unleashed it, he covered hundreds of yards in the blink of an eye.

A smug look appeared on Master Qing’s face. He glanced back occasionally at the furious white-robed girl and the black-robed youth, a cold sneer in his leonine eyes.

Though Master Qing was burly, his speed was anything but slow. In the blink of an eye, he had already fled several hundred yards.

By the time Qin Feng looked up and saw Master Qing fleeing, it was already too late.

There was no catching him now!

Qin Feng glanced at the white-robed girl. She was still in a daze, not understanding why Master Qing had suddenly run away.

’What a useless teammate!’

Qin Feng’s figure flickered as he frowned.

’This girl is really something else...’

Feeling helpless, Qin Feng couldn’t even be bothered to scold her. His face darkened as he considered their options. With the Alien Race expert’s escape, their location was compromised. They would soon be hunted by experts from the Demon God Temple.

The white-robed girl looked uneasy. She hadn’t noticed Master Qing’s intent to flee at all. Caught completely off guard, she had let him get away!

Seeing the black-robed youth ignoring her, the girl lowered her head, a wronged expression on her pretty face.

Just as Master Qing’s figure was about to disappear from view...

Suddenly, from the Ancient Forest, several black Ancient Vines as thick as a child’s arm shot out like Spiritual Serpents. Caught completely by surprise, the fleeing Master Qing was instantly trussed up like a mummy.

THUD!

He crashed to the ground with a heavy thud.

Qin Feng’s eyes lit up, a savage glint flashing within them. ’A perfect chance!’
