Xuanwu War Sovereign

BOOM!

A silver and a gold streak of light slammed into each other in mid-air. Two streams of invisible True Power collided, unleashing an earth-shattering boom.

RUMBLE!

The two figures were blasted hundreds of feet apart, streaking across the sky. With a bang, a silver light landed. The ground beneath it shook, forming a crater several inches deep. Bathed in silver light, Qin Feng clenched his fist, his bones and sinews letting out a series of cracking, popping sounds.

The hand behind his back trembled. Qin Feng clenched his fist so tightly that the veins bulged on his skin.

’Such a powerful physique. It’s not the least bit inferior to the first level of my Eight Desolates Undying Profound Technique. The Celestial Lion Royal Family is truly difficult to deal with!’

A grave expression appeared in Qin Feng’s eyes.

’This is the strongest opponent I have ever faced!’

BANG!

Shi Wushuang was thrown back, sliding hundreds of feet across the ground before he barely managed to stop. A layer of invisible golden light flowed over his body. A sharp pain shot through his hand, and a drop of blood trickled down his skin to the ground. Astonishment flashed across his face, quickly replaced by waves of killing intent in his eyes.

Shi Wushuang raised his head and stared at Qin Feng, his heart growing cold. ’Such immense power! He can fight me, a Profound Extreme Realm cultivator, with nothing but pure True Power. With talent and strength like this... this boy absolutely cannot be allowed to live!’

’If he is allowed to mature, he will become an enormous threat to the Demon God Temple.’

"Kill!"

Qin Feng and Shi Wushuang’s eyes met, and each saw the bone-deep killing intent in the other’s gaze.

Qin Feng’s figure flashed, like a bolt of silver-white lightning tearing through the air. He casually brought to bear the Martial Arts he knew from the Condensing Vein Realm in his past life.

He thrust out a palm, and his silver-white Star True Power twisted into a roaring thunderbolt that seemed to originate from a Star River.

Shi Wushuang’s eyes were icy. Golden-yellow Golden True Power erupted from his body. His Golden True Power was incomparably sharp, carrying a trace of a vast, primordial aura. He struck Qin Feng’s palm with a fist, unleashing an indestructible force that could actually clash head-on with Qin Feng’s Star True Power from his Celestial Dao Skill.

’Emperor’s Power... this is the power of a Demon God Bloodline! It must be the Demon God’s Divinity at work.’

Fist to flesh!

BAM! BAM!

The two of them were unbelievably fast, like a pair of tornadoes locked in a frantic battle.

Shi Wushuang was incredibly fast, and his Fist Technique was majestic and domineering. Every claw strike and every punch carried a vast, imposing might, as if an Emperor had descended upon the Eight Desolates, putting immense pressure on Qin Feng.

Qin Feng’s style, in contrast, was unpredictable. At times it was like a fierce gale, at others like the ocean tide, or a sudden flash of lightning. Ultimately, it all resolved into the image of the eternal stars. His every punch and kick was direct, simple, fast, accurate, and ruthless. His power was as vast and aloof as the boundless, starry sky.

He moved with fluid ease, perfectly blending hard and soft styles.

Many Divine Abilities gradually began to manifest, integrating into his techniques and adding to their might.

ROAR!

A massive Spiritual Serpent, dozens of feet long, blasted out from his Palm Technique. This was a Divine Ability that manifested after he had achieved Great Success with his Spiritual Snake Demon Subduing Fist Technique.

Qin Feng called it the Spirit Snake Divine Ability.

"Lion Emperor’s Earth-Splitting Claw!"

Unleashing a Martial Arts technique of his own, Shi Wushuang struck out with a majestic, domineering claw. A gigantic golden talon materialized and instantly obliterated the massive Spiritual Serpent.

"Huangji World!"

Without losing any momentum, a cold glint flashed in Shi Wushuang’s eyes. Like a streak of golden lightning, he instantly appeared just ten paces from Qin Feng. He unleashed a terrifying aura that seemed to blot out the sky itself. His entire being transformed into a supreme Celestial Lion as he struck with his claw. The very air around Qin Feng seemed to strain, his skin rippling as if it were about to burst.

"Profound Turtle Sea-Suppressing Fist!"

Qin Feng’s eyes grew cold. Without moving, he took a deep breath as a silver light rippled around him. His Profound Turtle Sea-Suppressing Fist, which he had mastered to the level of Great Success, combined with his Star True Power and instantly formed the image of a gigantic, silver Profound Turtle Suppressing the Sea.

BAM! BAM!

The incomparably ferocious golden fist bombarded the Profound Turtle, resulting in a violent collision. RUMBLE! Dust flew up from under Qin Feng’s feet, and the ground beneath him sank three feet deep.

’Such powerful defense! My Golden True Power contains a trace of an Ancient Emperor’s aura, and its quality is far superior to ordinary True Power. Even when I add the might of my Imperial Race’s Ultimate Skill, the Emperor’s Earth-Shattering Fist, I still can’t break his defense!’

A flicker of rage passed through Shi Wushuang’s eyes.

"Emperor Level Second Form, Headless Dragons!"

An incomparably fierce power of supreme hardness and pure yang emerged. Like a thunderclap, Shi Wushuang leaped into the air and struck down with his palm. RUMBLE! A boundless golden light surged as the utterly berserk force threatened to shatter the Void and blast Qin Feng into dust.

"What a terrifying Palm Technique!" Nearby, the experts from both sides who had been fighting their own battles hastily stopped and scattered in all directions.

The might of this palm strike was simply too immense.

Many experts of the Celestial Lion Clan turned to gaze at the god-like figure of Shi Wushuang in mid-air, their expressions akin to pilgrims beholding a deity.

This was the Ultimate Skill of the Celestial Lion Royal Family, the Emperor’s Earth-Shattering Fist. Only those who had truly awakened their Celestial Lion Royal Family bloodline were qualified to practice it.

It was a Supreme Divine Ability passed down from the Celestial Lion Demon God himself—incomparably mighty, possessing a power of supreme hardness and pure yang. It was the ultimate skill with which the Celestial Lion Demon God had once dominated heaven and earth.

Legend had it that the Celestial Lion Demon God had once used the Emperor’s Earth-Shattering Fist to completely melt the eternally frozen Black Ocean.

An immense sense of crisis welled up in Qin Feng’s heart. Shi Wushuang was wielding an Earth Tier Martial Arts Great Divine Power. With this one punch, the force of the Fist Technique was constantly increasing.

It was absorbing the power of supreme hardness and pure yang from the world, even condensing the True Sun Fire from the heavens to strengthen itself, as if it intended to melt the very Firmament. This was far more terrifying than Lû Chunyang’s True Sun Fire Divine Ability.

"Xuanwu Yin Yang Dao! Profound Turtle, Spiritual Serpent, combine! Yin Yang Divine Map!"

With a furious roar, boundless concepts of both hardness and softness arose in Qin Feng’s mind. Like a river of stars, his Star True Power erupted from every pore on his body, forming a gigantic, silver-white serpent.

This was his Spirit Snake Divine Ability.

The next moment, a deep roar resounded as a giant turtle appeared behind Qin Feng. The serpent and the turtle flew above his head, yin and yang connecting like a Yin Yang Tai Chi Fish. Guided by his Fist Technique, they underwent a yin-yang transformation, forming a silver Dao Map in front of him.

A supreme aura of yin-yang transformation and the rotation of Tai Chi filled the Void, seemingly converting the space itself into pure Yin and Yang Qi.

RUMBLE!

With an earth-shattering roar, the thick beam of golden, pure-yang light slammed into the Yin Yang Divine Map, causing a cataclysmic explosion.

The immense shockwave rippled outwards.

THUMP.

Hundreds of feet away, Wang Yue’Er, who was battling an expert from the Celestial Lion Clan, was instantly obliterated into a bloody mist by the force of the blast.

The Celestial Lion Clan expert she was fighting was also crushed without any chance to resist. With a sickening crunch, chunks of his flesh scattered through the air.

However, to everyone’s utter disbelief, although the Yin Yang Divine Map was small, the rotation of its yin and yang energies actually managed to block the fist strike.

The Yin Yang Divine Map transformed the power of supreme hardness and pure yang. With yin and yang acting as one, unpredictable as the Celestial Dao itself, the map withstood the attack. The immense force was absorbed and dissolved, finally coalescing into a two-toned, yin-and-yang solar orb.

This solar orb, like a miniature sun, contained a power that could chill one to the bone.

It felt as though it could erupt within the Void at any moment.

Qin Feng’s eyes lit up. Curling his fingers, he instantly seized the miniature sun. An indescribable, berserk power—searingly hot and purely yang—surged from his palm. Yet, as strong as this power was, it was helpless against Qin Feng’s Star True Power.

His Heavenly Dao Level Star True Power easily crushed the energy, absorbed it, and converted it into more of his own.

Qin Feng’s gaze swept toward the place where dozens of experts from the Celestial Lion Clan had gathered.

"Oh no!" The expressions of the Celestial Lion Clan experts changed drastically.

They began to scatter and flee, but it was already too late.

With a flick of his wrist, Qin Feng sent the orb of concentrated True Sun Fire hurtling like a meteor into the crowd of Celestial Lion Clan experts.

RUMBLE!

An earth-shattering explosion erupted, leaving a crater hundreds of feet wide in its wake.

Severed limbs were scattered everywhere. The mist of blood was instantly vaporized.

Before Shi Wushuang’s furious eyes, more than thirty of the forty to fifty Celestial Lion Clan experts were killed instantly by the blast.

Of the remaining twenty or so survivors, seven or eight were maimed, losing arms or legs, while the rest had only survived by being farther from the epicenter.
