Making up for 83,000 Genesis Qi stars was not as simple as he had imagined.
On the Cangxuan Sect’s side, everyone’s expressions grew solemn. Zhou Yuan had encountered the most difficult and troublesome fierce battle ever since he entered the Cangxuan Sect.
Chapter 649 Disadvantage
Boom!
Violent dark yellow Genesis Qi collided with the ash-grey Genesis Qi, causing shock waves to rage out, and the impact directly tore apart the surrounding dense forests.
At the source of the collision were Chu Qing and Jiang Taishen.
At this very moment, both men’s imposing auras were incomparably fierce and terrifying. During the attack, Genesis Qi filled with destructive power surged and filled the air.
Their battle, based on aura and power, was much more impressive than Zhou Yuan's.
“Sacred Underworld Palm!”
Jiang Taishen soared into the air and slammed his palm down. The ash-grey Genesis Qi directly transformed into a giant palm filled with chilling cold air and struck at Chu Qing.
Before the palm even landed, the ground was beginning to crumble.
Chu Qing lifted his head, his eyes piercing. Looking at Jiang Taishen’s fierce attack, he stamped his feet, and his long needle-like hair swept out like pointed awls.
“Barren Thorns!”
Buzz!
Dark yellow Genesis Qi filled each strand of black hair, which looked like black awls from afar. The strands of hair shot straight up, tore through the air, and collided with the giant palm that was slamming down.
Boom!
Berserk Genesis Qi erupted once again.
Both figures shook. They reeled back from the force and quickly steadied their bodies.
Jiang Taishen’s white hair had long loosened over his shoulders. They had already fought hundreds of rounds, but they still failed to settle who was the winner. It was obvious that Chu Qing's strength mustn’t be underestimated.
“Chu Qing, your Ancient Barren Qi has improved a lot,” Jiang Taishen said indifferently.
“Your Sacred Underworld Bone Qi also isn’t bad.” Chu Qing smiled, but there was not a hint of a smile in his eyes.
Jiang Taishen lifted his head to look at the highest point of the huge mountain, and he remarked indifferently, “But unfortunately, your Zhou Yuan is no match for Jin Chanzi. It won’t be long before Jin Chanzi kills him.”
He seemed to be speaking casually, but his thoughts were vicious. He was attempting to use Zhou Yuan’s situation to affect Chu Qing and lead him to make a mistake.
Chu Qing looked up at the top of the mountain and quickly retracted his gaze. His handsome face was as calm as a lake as he responded, “Ever since junior brother Zhou Yuan came to Cangxuan Sect, when has he not faced an opponent stronger than him? Jiang Taishen, you don't understand him.”
“Is that right?” Jiang Taishen smiled. He did not care. Perhaps in his view Zhou Yuan had no qualification to make him want to understand him. “I hope you can still utter such words when he's beaten to death.”
.......
In comparison to the earth-shaking movements on Chu Qing and Jiang Taishen's side, the mountainside that Yaoyao and Zhan Taiqing were on seemed to be a little quieter. But within that quiet, there was still strong murderous intent surging.
As Yaoyao stood on a boulder, the area between her brows glowed with an incredibly strong Spirit light. Zhan Taiqing stood on a tree trunk, and at this moment her pretty face seemed to be twisted.
She had been struck by Spirit Flame. If the Genesis Qi inside her body hadn’t frantically obstructed and gotten rid of it, her Spirit would have suffered severe damage and experienced severe burning pain.
That kind of burning pain came directly from the Spirit, and it would be unbearable for ordinary people.
“That woman deserves to die!”
Zhan Taiqing tightly clenched her teeth, and her scarlet eyes were filled with viciousness as they locked onto Yaoyao. Blood-red Genesis Qi roared and raged around her body.
Yaoyao had incredibly weak Genesis Qi, but her Spirit power was frighteningly strong. The one thing that Zhan Taiqing found unbelievable was that she was able to refine wisps of Spirit Flames. After all, Spirit Flames could only be produced when one stepped into the Transformation stage.
Although Yaoyao’s Spirit Flame was not quite complete, for someone who had not set foot into the Divine Dwelling stage, she was still a great threat.
“Your little sweetheart is most likely going to be killed soon!” Zhan Taiqing smiled coldly.
Her intention was exactly the same as Jiang Taishen’s.
But Yaoyao did not even glance at her. She knew that it would be a difficult battle for Zhou Yuan to face Jin Chanzi, but nobody here had more confidence in Zhou Yuan than her.
She understood Zhou Yuan too well. So, it was still unknown who would have the final laugh on the mountain’s summit.
“I think you should be more concerned about when you will be killed?” Yaoyao’s eyes drooped slightly, a flicker of cold light gathering in her pupils. She raised her beautiful hand and lifted countless boulders with her Spirit power.
Shua!
The boulders, under the manipulation of her Spirit power, were hurled in the direction of Zhan Taiqing with incredible speed and power.
Moreover, there seemed to be an invisible flame quietly passing by among the boulders.
......
On the peak that was watched by countless gazes.
Jin Chanzi crossed his arms, indifferently looked at the crumbling mountain wall, and smiled. “It’s pretty impressive that you have such accomplishments in your physical strength and Spirit, but unfortunately it’s of no use.”
From Jin Chanzi’s perspective, it was pretty funny and ridiculous that Zhou Yuan cultivated three kinds of powers. If he had the time and energy, it would have been better for him to focus on specialising in one power, just like Zhou Xiaoyao’s Spirit power, which gave many people a headache.
“Boy, don't hide and embarrass yourself. The battle has started, you can’t retreat now.” Jin Chanzi laughed in mockery. He had managed to suppress Zhou Yuan with his previous attacks, but he couldn’t kill him completely because of his physical strength.
Of course, that was just the previous exchange. If Zhou Yuan continued to fight, it was unknown whether he would survive.
As Jin Chanzi thought of this, a killing intent flashed in his eyes.
But as his voice faded, the area of the collapsed mountain wall was still as quiet as before. This made Jin Chanzi sneer, “Coward, are you frightened by me?”
Boom!
When his voice fell, dark green Genesis Qi came roaring out. It transformed into a waterfall and aimed for the collapsed mountain wall.
The fallen boulders were shattered.
Dong!
And as the boulders exploded, a fist light fiercely shot out and collided with the Genesis Qi waterfall. The impact shattered numerous nearby boulders.
That figure slightly quivered and immediately shattered the Genesis Qi waterfall.
Jin Chanzi narrowed his eyes when he saw Zhou Yuan standing in the rubble. There was a mysterious light enveloping Zhou Yuan, and behind the cloak of light were two outstretched wings of light. The Genesis Qi around him was constantly being drawn into the mysterious wings and channeled into Zhou Yuan’s body.
“Oh? If I'm not mistaken, that should be one of the seven great techniques of the Cangxuan Sect, the Omega Saint Spirit Art, am I right? Haha, you indeed have some ability since you are able to cultivate this art.
“What? You think that Genesis technique can make up for the huge gap between you and me?” Jin Chanzi shook his head, peering pitifully at Zhou Yuan. “You are still so naive.”
Zhou Yuan wiped away the trace of blood on the corner of his mouth. He stared expressionlessly at Jin Chanzi and said, “Jin Chanzi, don’t be so happy too soon.”
He crouched down, stretched out his hand, and gently touched the
ground with his palm.
A mysterious Saint Rune slowly emerged in the palm of his hand, and all of a sudden the earth began to tremble.
Earth Saint Rune!
The real battle had just begun!
Chapter 650 Turned around
Buzz!
When Zhou Yuan’s palm came into contact with the ground, the entire towering peak trembled all of a sudden. In the depths of the ground, majestic Genesis Qi surged like underground snakes and then whizzed over from all sides, frantically rushing like a tide into Zhou Yuan’s body through his palm.
A yellow glow bloomed from the surface of Zhou Yuan's body.
The frantically surging Genesis Qi in his body was constantly roaring.
The Earth Genesis Qi was incredibly majestic, and it was unbearable to an ordinary body. Fortunately Zhou Yuan had made some accomplishments in his physical body. Otherwise, he wouldn’t dare to draw that kind of Genesis Qi into his body.
Even so, his flesh and blood were still impacted when the Earth Genesis Qi penetrated his body, and multiple blood marks were left on the surface of his body.
Fortunately the Taiyi Green Wood Mark inside Zhou Yuan’s body was continuously producing life force to repair his torn flesh. Otherwise, before he even made a move, his body would have been riddled with thousands of holes.
A yellow glow condensed on the surface of Zhou Yuan’s skin. It vaguely seemed to be forming some kind of mysterious light pattern.
The oppressive Genesis Qi emitting from Zhou Yuan’s body was rising into the air with astonishing speed, and the boulder underfoot was unable to withstand the power any longer. Cracks spread throughout it.
Hu.
Feeling the rushing power that resembled an enraged dragon in his body, Zhou Yuan exhaled a long breath. This power was what gave him the actual confidence in fighting Jin Chanzi.
The exchange of moves before was just to test what level Jin Chanzi’s Genesis Qi foundation had reached.
Not far from Zhou Yuan, Jin Chanzi had a playful expression on his face, but he immediately froze when he noticed the oppressive Genesis Qi being emitted from Zhou Yuan’s body.
At this moment, there was a great surge in Zhou Yuan's Genesis Qi that made him feel a level of danger.
It should be said that this feeling of danger was something that Jin Chanzi had not felt when Zhou Yuan had used all three different powers at the same time.
It was evident that the present Zhou Yuan had used some kind of unknown method to trigger his Genesis Qi to increase dramatically.
“That boy is still hiding more secrets?” Jin Chanzi’s expression turned chillingly cold.
His eyes flashed, the killing intent within them growing more intense. He stomped his foot, sending dark green Genesis Qi shooting into the sky like a volcanic eruption, The qi transformed into countless rays of toxic dark green light aiming directly for Zhou Yuan.
As the toxic light swept through the void, even the air was corroded and became toxic.
Evidently, as Jin Chanzi faced the present Zhou Yuan, his playful attitude of a cat playing with a mouse began to change. The previous Zhou Yuan was no threat to him, but now the mouse seemed to have changed.
So Jin Chanzi intended to thoroughly eliminate Zhou Yuan before he completely lost control of the situation.
Countless rays of dark green toxic light whistled down like wildfire. Zhou Yuan looked up, thousands of dark green lights reflecting in his eyes, and he said nonchalantly, “You are too impatient.”
He also sensed that Jin Chanzi’s attack was filled with more intense murderous spirit and was hastier than before.
Jin Chanzi let out a loud sneer, but he did not utter a word.
Zhou Yuan remained calm and composed. Jin Chanzi’s attack was very fierce. If it was before, he really would have found it difficult to withstand. Perhaps his Genesis Qi foundation was still not as good as Jin Chanzi’s, but the gap between them was no longer impossible to make up for.
He spread his hands out, and the golden Genesis Qi leapt into the air, transforming into a golden cloak of light that wrapped his body.
Swoosh!
Countless rays of toxic qi fell, bombarding the golden light barrier. That earth-shaking momentum was terrifying, and it even tore thousands of holes into the surrounding ground.
However, what filled the countless eyes beyond the mountain with shocked disbelief was that even if the golden barrier was being repeatedly bombarded and was constantly rippling, it was still standing and protecting Zhou Yuan.
It wasn’t until the last dark green light fell that the golden barrier wobbled and quietly shattered.
And standing inside, Zhou Yuan did not move an inch. He remained calm and composed.
Hua!
There were loud gasps of astonishment from the audience beyond the mountain.
All faces were covered with shock and astonishment. This was the first time Zhou Yuan had escaped unscathed from one of Jin Chanzi’s attacks since the battle started.
“How did he become so powerful all of a sudden?”
“He had to completely activate his Genesis Qi before in order to withstand one attack from Jin Chanzi, but how could he do that with just a foundation of 39,000 Genesis Qi stars?”
“That kid is indeed strange!”
“No wonder he dared to go up against Jin Chanzi. It turns out that he has a trump card up his sleeve...”
“..........”
On the peak all eyes were watching, Jin Chanzi stared at Zhou Yuan with a dark face, infuriated that Zhou Yuan could withstand his attack.
It was no doubt a slap to his face.
Zhou Yuan paid no attention to his gloomy expression, and he exhaled a long breath. With eyes like that of an eagle staring at Jin Chanzi, he slowly asked, “You’ve been the one attacking, so it should be me next, right?”
Boom!
When Zhou Yuan’s voice fell, his eyes turned chillingly cold. Behind him, the shadow of the Saint Spirit spread out its wings.
Shua!
His figure disappeared like a flash of light.
Jin Chanzi’s pupils shrank. Zhou Yuan’s speed was extremely astonishing.
He stood on his tiptoes and shot skywards.
But just as he appeared in midair, a shadow appeared in front of his body like a ghost. His fist clenched, and a punch came roaring towards him.
Boom!
When the punch slammed out, there was an astonishing gust of wind, and even the air was vibrating slightly. A shrill boom resounded as the fist exploded.
Jin Chanzi’s expression slightly changed when he felt that fist’s power. But he immediately let out a cold snort and swiftly thrust his palm out. He was going to display his Genesis Qi foundation without restraint.
Bang!
The fist and palm collided, and even the air trembled incessantly.
Zhou Yuan and Jin Chanzi were both shaking.
But Zhou Yuan pounced out the next moment, countless fists roaring and rumbling in Jin Chanzi’s direction.
Jin Chanzi’s face was dark, but he did not move an inch and faced the attack head on.
Boom!
The two figures frantically crisscrossed in midair. Every collision produced a gust of wind and caused the air to quake.
In just a few minutes, the two men had almost fought hundreds of exchanges. The lightning-fast bombardment dazzled the countless people watching.
Each attack was fatal and filled with murderous intent.
Boom!
The two figures collided once again in the sky, both looking a little disheveled and sinister. Frantic Genesis Qi swept out, blotting the sky.
Both figures quivered, and then they shot backwards.
Zhou Yuan reeled back one hundred feet before he landed, digging up dozens of deep pits. On the other hand Jin Chanzi was propelled 130 feet away, and when he landed, he continually drew back several hundred steps.
Jin Chanzi’s face turned ashen by the time they steadied their bodies.
Beyond the mountain, there were countless gasps of astonishment. Each gaze, filled with shock and disbelief, hovered around Zhou Yuan's body.
This was the first time that Zhou Yuan had the upper hand in a head-on attack during his battle against Jin Chanzi!
The situation seemed to be gradually tilting to the side nobody believed in.
Chapter 651 The Great Demon Toad Technique
It was a complete mess on the towering peak.
Countless gazes of shock and disbelief were fixed on the two figures on the peak, particularly on Zhou Yuan. Nobody thought that Zhou Yuan would gain the upper hand.
What did that signify?
Zhou Yuan had gradually closed the gap between them, or perhaps he had even exceeded it.
This was simply difficult to imagine. After all, the gap between 39,000 Genesis Qi stars and 83,000 Genesis Qi stars was too great, but Zhou Yuan was able to bridge this gap.
This could be said to be a miracle.
On the Sacred Palace’s side, the disciples who were previously wearing contemptuous expression seemed to have stiffened. They were unable to believe the scene that they had just witnessed.
In their view, Zhou Yuan was the weakest of the three people sent out from the Cangxuan Sect. The difference between him and Jin Chanzi was too great. They were certain that Jin Chanzi would destroy Zhou Yuan and make the entire Cangxuan Sect collapse.
The previous rounds were as they had expected: Jin Chanzi occupied the upper hand. But who would have thought that Zhou Yuan’s Genesis Qi would surge dramatically like an exploding seed. Not only did it make up for the gap between them but it also let him gain the upper hand!
This scene was clearly a tremendous shock to the Sacred Palace disciples.
In contrast to the deathly silence on the Sacred Palace’s side, there was an immediate deafening cheer on the Cangxuan Sect’s side.
Tang Muxin, Gu Hongyi and others were all stirred up.
Although they did not understand why Zhou Yuan would explode to such a non-human level, in any case, the present situation was a good thing for their Cangxuan Sect.
As long as Zhou Yuan was standing, it would still be unknown who would win the battle on the seventh peak!
