Rumble!
A storm of Genesis Qi erupted, distorting the air.
The moment the brush and cudgel collided, Zhou Yuan’s body quivered slightly and eventually reeled back from the impact. Every step he took caused the air to make a shrill noise.
“If you only have a good Genesis Qi foundation, you are most likely going to die today!”
Mo Yuan sneered. Zhou Yuan’s Genesis Qi foundation was indeed superior to his, but he was from the Heavenly Spirit Sect and had mastered all the top Genesis techniques. Therefore, even if his Genesis Qi foundation was slightly weaker, with the help of the power of Genesis techniques, he could still significantly multiply his strength.
Boom!
When his voice faded, the mighty cudgel shadow relentlessly pursued Zhou Yuan, enveloping him with terrifying pressure.
He evidently intended to take advantage of the opportunity to completely defeat Zhou Yuan.
Watching the tremendous cudgel shadow obscuring the sky whiz down, Zhou Yuan narrowed his eyes and sneered, “Do you think you’re the only one to have high-grade Heaven-tier Genesis techniques?”
“Omega Saint Spirit Art!”
Zhou Yuan rapidly folded his hands into a hand seal. The next moment, a gush of majestic Genesis Qi quickly condensed into a mysterious shadow. The shadow spread out its huge wings of light, swallowing the Genesis Qi of the universe.
The Genesis Qi that erupted from Zhou Yuan’s body also surged as a result.
Clang!
With the stamp of his feet, his figure shot into the sky, and the Heavenly Yuan Brush in his hand transformed into countless arcs of Genesis Qi to meet the cudgel shadows head on.
Boom!
Continuous loud noises rang across the sky. Countless people were stunned to see that every time a brush shadow swept past, the cudgel shadows that filled the sky were cleared away.
Zhou Yuan’s figure also stood motionless in the air and no longer wavered.
When Mo Yuan saw that Zhou Yuan was steadying his attack, his pupils shrank. He peered at the mysterious shadow with light wings. The Genesis Qi emitted from it was in no way weaker than that of the giant ape shadow.
Evidently, what Zhou Yuan used was also a high-grade Heaven-tier Genesis technique!
“What is that boy’s background?”
This question ran through Mo Yuan’s mind, but he immediately snorted coldly, eyes blazing with battle intent. The next moment, he darted out and once again launched an attack.
He didn’t believe he couldn’t deal with a Divine Dwelling stage expert!
Zhou Yuan also refused to give up. The two shadows repeatedly collided like lightning above, and every time they crossed each other, it would cause a violent shock wave of Genesis Qi.
In a short period of time, the two had already fought hundreds of rounds.
Neither of them held back. Every attack was incredibly aggressive, making the numerous spectators tremble with fear.
Everyone of the Yi clan was unblinkingly watching the battle high in the sky. Their expressions seemed extremely tense and nervous. Zhou Yuan was the Yi clan’s last hope.
Yi Qianji and Liu Tianying also had solemn looks on their faces. A moment later, Yi Qianji could help but remark, “Zhou Yuan isn’t ordinary. His strength is actually comparable to Mo Yuan’s.”
They naturally could tell that Mo Yuan had already displayed his full strength, but he still didn’t hold the upper hand against Zhou Yuan.
It was a wonderful battle between the serpent and the ape.
“Father, can he win?” Liu Ming asked nervously.
Liu Tianying muttered, “It’s not certain yet. Mo Yuan is also an extraordinary person, so it won’t be easy to beat him.”
Zhou Yuan’s performance was already beyond their expectations, but Mo Yuan’s reputation in Tianyuan Regions wasn’t weak. So even Liu Tianying, an expert of the Heavenly Sun stage, couldn’t guarantee whether or not Zhou Yuan could really win.
“I have heard that Mo Yuan has refined the essence blood of the ‘Sky Demonic Ape’, a grade-seven Genesis beast. That essence blood has already integrated with his own, and once he fights, his power will soar. His Genesis Qi will rise steadily, and he will be as fierce as a demonic ape,” Yi Qianji said. “It’s his greatest trump card.”
“The blood essence of the Sky Demonic Ape?” Liu Ming exclaimed. A grade-seven Genesis beast had the strength of the Nascent Source stage!
She looked up at the sky, a worried frown crossing her face.
After all, once Zhou Yuan lost, the Yi clan would have to hand over the position of Prefecture Lord of Xiaoxuan Prefecture.
On the Qiu clan’s side, everybody was similarly staring intently at the sky. Even the head of the clan, Qiu Long, had a dark expression on his face. Evidently, he didn’t expect Zhou Yuan to push Mo Yuan to this state.
“Well, you can leap about, but you have underestimated Mo Yuan.” Qiu Long sneered.
Boom!
The fierce battle occurring at high altitude continued and gradually intensified.
However, as the battle became deadlocked, Zhou Yuan found that Mo Yuan’s attacks were becoming increasingly heavy and violent. He squinted his eyes and looked over in his direction. He vaguely saw that Mo Yuan’s eyes were gradually turning red.
An indescribable ferocity surged around him.
“Roar!”
The next moment, an ape-like howl burst out from Mo Yuan’s mouth. His eyes had become completely scarlet, and even the Genesis Qi around him was pulsing violently, causing the air to quake.
“Die!” Mo Yuan let out a sharp scream. The black cudgel flashed out of his hand, turning into a black torrent that directly shattered the surrounding space, aiming for Zhou Yuan with lightning speed.
Zhou Yuan shook his arm, and the hair of the Heavenly Yuan brush shot out. It formed layer after layer, as though forming a huge net.
Boom!
The torrent formed from the black iron cudgel repeatedly bombarded the giant net, crushing it into a terrifying arc, and eventually pierced through to strike Zhou Yuan’s body.
Clang!
Zhou Yuan was blasted away with a loud clang.
Gasps of astonishment rose all over Xuanzhou City.
“Zhou Yuan!” Yi Qiushui also couldn’t help but cry out.
Roar!
Mo Yuan’s eyes were scarlet red. His body moved slightly, and he appeared directly behind Zhou Yuan, a smile twisting his lips. With the clench of his hand, the black iron cudgel flashed right back into his hand.
Boom!
He swung the black iron cudgel down at Zhou Yuan’s body. If the cudgel struck, even a mountain would be flattened.
However, just as the cudgel was only inches away, a speck of light emerged from Zhou Yuan’s palm.
The speck of light expanded in the wind, rapidly growing to the size of a fist. A sword cry echoed across the world.
“Devil Sweeping Sword Orb!”
Zhou Yuan shook his hand, sending the sword pill out. An earthshaking sword cry suddenly erupted from the sword pill. A sharp sword aura gushed out, wrapping around the pill until it transformed into a giant sword of light.
His eyes were piercing and cold as he swung the sword and ignored Mo Yuan’s ferocious cudgel.
“Die!”
“Let’s see if you dare to clash directly with me!”
Mo Yuan didn’t hold back and directly struck at Zhou Yuan.
The cudgel shadow rapidly enlarged before Zhou Yuan. But Zhou Yuan was expressionless; the sword light transformed from the sword pill did not pause in the slightest.
The attacks of both sides were incomparably ruthless, and neither showed the intent of retreating.
Amidst countless horrified voices, when the black cudgel shadow struck Zhou Yuan, the majestic sword formed from sword qi slashed out from an extremely tricky angle and pierced Mo Yuan’s chest.
At this moment, both sides were fighting desperately with their lives.
; Chapter 776 Azure Serpent Form
Boom!
Under the countless gazes of shock, the two figures fought at a high altitude with their lives.
The cudgel wrapped in violent power ruthlessly struck Zhou Yuan’s body, and an incomparably fierce sword light slashed across Mo Yuan’s chest at the same time.
At that moment, shock waves of Genesis Qi shook the air.
Bang!
The two figures froze for a moment before being blasted away at the same time. Their bodies plummeted from the sky and crashed onto the huge stone platform below. The ground cracked in a cobweb pattern, and two deep holes formed in the ground, obscured by dust and smoke.
The entire Xuanzhou City was quaking.
Countless people swallowed saliva repeatedly, stunned by the ferocity of the two men.
Some experts of the advanced Divine Dwelling stage even felt their scalps go numb at the sight. They knew that if they were there instead, they would have been killed.
All eyes were unblinkingly fixed on the battlefield.
Yi Qiushui clenched her fists tight, and her face tensed up nervously. She had no idea who had the upper hand in that fierce battle.
The smoke and dust gradually dispersed from the battlefield, and in one of the huge pits, a figure climbed to his feet. It was Mo Yuan.
However, a terrifying cut reached from his chest to his abdomen, almost cutting completely through his body diagonally. Even his organs were vaguely visible.
Blood rapidly gushed out.
He glanced at the sword mark across his chest. His eyelids twitched slightly, and a trace of fear flashed across the depths of his eyes. He was also a little frightened by Zhou Yuan’s last counterattack.
But the good thing was that he had ultimately managed to withstand it in the end.
Mo Yuan peered at the other pit in the distance, grinning. “Stupid, you dare to fight against me?!”
As his voice faded, the flesh and blood in his chest squirmed about. The bleeding suddenly stopped, and the hideous wound was gradually healing. But the terrifying sword qi that was left in the wound was a bit troublesome, and it was constantly tearing his flesh and bringing him severe pain.
Overall, however, Mo Yuan’s injury was quickly recovering.
When the people of the Yi clan as well as Yi Qiushui laid eyes on this scene, their complexion changed abruptly.
“Mo Yuan has refined the essence and blood of the Sky Demonic Ape. His body has been strengthened and has gained a self-healing ability. No wonder he’s so powerful and fierce. He isn’t afraid of getting injured at all!” Yi Qiushui gritted her teeth. Mo Yuan seemed to have lost all rationality, but he was still extremely cunning. What he had done before was to deliberately provoke Zhou Yuan to fight him with all his strength.
“Zhou Yuan suffered a big loss in the end.”
At this moment, the other people also sighed inwardly, knowing that Zhou Yuan had been tricked by Mo Yuan.
On the other hand, everybody on the Qiu clan’s side was smiling. Qiu Long breathed a sigh of relief. “Mo Yuan’s cudgel was strengthened with majestic Genesis Qi. Even if Zhou Yuan survived, he has most likely lost half his body and no longer has the power to fight.”
“This battle, my Qiu clan has already won!”
The other members of the Qiu clan immediately lit up and congratulated one another when they heard this.
Amidst all the discussion, the dust and smoke of the other pit also dispersed, but there still wasn’t any movement.
“Was Zhou Yuan killed?” someone whispered, feeling that this was somewhat a shame.
There was a fierce glint in Mo Yuan’s eyes. He had great confidence in his cudgel. Moreover, Zhou Yuan hadn’t evaded the attack, which meant that attack should have struck successfully and wounded him severely.
“You’re pretty strong to force me to fight to this state.” Mo Yuan sneered coldly. But just as his voice faded, a voice sounded from the huge pit in the distance.
“Am I?”
Everybody was shocked to see a figure slowly rising from the pit.
It was Zhou Yuan.
At this moment his upper body and robe were torn apart, revealing a slender body that contained explosive power. But most shocking, he was unscathed!
Mo Yuan’s previous destructive cudgel seemed to have had no impact on him.
“How is that possible?!”
Even Mo Yuan’s expression changed dramatically.
He had already poured all his strength into his cudgel, which should have, according to his prediction, inflicted severe wounds to even an existence of the same level as him.
“Nothing is impossible. Your cudgel, it did hurt.”
Zhou Yuan calmly peered down at his body, which upon a closer look, there were mysterious azure scales surfacing on his skin, and his eyes also had turned into azure, vertical eyes.
Like an azure serpent.
It was the appearance of those azure scales, coupled with the activation of the Mythic Saint Body that let Zhou Yuan directly withstand Mo Yuan’s terrifyingly ferocious attack.
“But that’s all.”
Zhou Yuan closed his eyes, and it seemed as though there was an ancient dragon roaring within his body. A majestic power filled his limbs and bones.
That was the power from the World Subduing Heavenly Serpent Qi.
It was only when Zhou Yuan had truly operated the World Subduing Heavenly Serpent Qi to its peak that he came to realize its profoundness, which was far stronger than the Omni Python Qi.
Mo Yuan looked at Zhou Yuan with a darkened face. For some reason, the power of the Sky Demonic Ape surging in his body seemed to have frozen, as though it was suppressed inexplicably.
Zhou Yuan’s eyes snapped open, his azure vertical eyes locked on Mo Yuan without the slightest ripple of emotion.
His body moved up and down like a beast rushing to eat. The air around him exploded all of a sudden.
Boom!
His figure shot out like a ghost, aiming directly for Mo Yuan.
The moment his figure darted, the azure scales on the surface of his skin grew, and his right arm rapidly enlarged. His fingertips extended and, in just a few breaths, transformed into an azure claw!
“World Subduing Heavenly Serpent Qi: Azure Serpent Form!”
Roar!
A long dragon roar reverberated throughout the world.
The Genesis Qi of the universe was pulsing.
Zhou Yuan reappeared in front of Mo Yuan as if he had teleported. He tightly clenched his claw, which was wrapped in indescribable power, and thrust it at Mo Yuan, whose complexion was changing dramatically.
As the punch slammed out, the surrounding space began to crack.
A terrifying power came rushing towards Mo Yuan’s face. His skin tightened, and an indescribable feeling of danger surged in his heart.
This made him understand that if Zhou Yuan’s punch struck, he would most likely not survive!
At that critical moment of life and death, Mo Yuan didn’t dare to hesitate anymore. With a deafening roar, a black glow covered his body and black hair pierced from his skin like needles. He currently resembled a real demonic ape.
His eyes were scarlet red and filled with violent intent.
Boom.
He again poured all his strength into a tremendous fist and punched out to meet the serpent claw head on.
Boom!
Shock waves visibly erupted from around the feet of the two men. The entire huge stone platform began to crumble.
Countless lines of sight were fixed on the battlefield.
They knew that it would be the last collision between the two men.
The impact of the two forces only lasted around a dozen breaths of time, and then everybody witnessed Mo Yuan’s arm explode to pieces, horrified.
Blood sputtered out.
Mo Yuan let out a miserable shriek. His body blasted away like a bullet, crashing into the city and destroying all the buildings along the way. In the mas
sive Xuanzhou City, a deep crevice was torn open.
As the rocks tumbled and whirled into the air, Mo Yuan’s body was buried.
Zhou Yuan stood motionless on the collapsed stone platform. A stream of azure qi rose from him like an ancient dragon.
The sound of collapsing buildings was still ringing in everybody’s ears, but at this moment, countless people in Xuanzhou City fell into stunned silence as they looked at the young figure.
They knew that Mo Yuan had lost!
Chapter 777 Threaten
A deep crevice extended across Xuanzhou City, destroying its balance like a scar that had suddenly appeared on a beauty’s porcelain face.
However, no one in Xuanzhou City was paying any attention to the crevice as they blankly stood there in complete silence.
The building at the end of the crevice had collapsed and there was no movement or sound from Mo Yuan.
Everyone was finally certain that Mo Yuan had lost.
Disbelief immediately surged in their hearts. They couldn’t believe that a famous heaven pride Divine Dwelling List ranker like Mo Yuan would be defeated in front of their eyes.
Moreover, it was a youngster at the intermediate Divine Dwelling stage who had defeated him!
“I can’t believe that Mo Yuan lost.”
Everyone from the Yi clan camp stood in stunned silence. Even Heavenly Sun experts such as Yi Qianji and Liu Tianying were a bit dumbfounded.
The young men and women continuously swallowed their saliva.
They clearly understood how shocking this scene was.
When this matter spread, it would certainly cause an uproar in Tianyuan Region.
A look of awe and respect crept onto everybody’s faces. When they recalled how they had doubted and mocked Zhou Yuan before, they felt so ashamed that they wanted to find a hole to jump into.
Liu Ming’s mouth hung slightly ajar but no sound emerged. Her older brother had always been the most outstanding in her eyes, but as she stared at Zhou Yuan’s figure, she had no choice but to admit that even the brother she always looked up to seemed to have lost his luster.
She murmured somewhat bitterly, “How can there be such a freak.”
