Chapter 951: Beaten Back
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
Once again, Mo Xie was injured. This was the second time he was injured from a joint assault by Qin Wentian, Qing`er and Nanfeng Yunxi.
The last time had happened before he established his supreme physique. Mo Xie’s arrogance knew no bounds, saying that with him present, the inheritance could only belong to him and the others had no qualifications to fight him for it. He wouldn’t allow Qin Wentian to be ahead, hence a clash occurred between them. Qing`er and Nanfeng Yunxi joined the battle, and that was the reason why Mo Xie gave up on dealing with Qin Wentian. In the end, he could only depend on his own abilities to comprehend the establishment of physique in a fair manner.
Mo Xie had succeeded, and he established an indestructible physique as his strength rose up to an even more terrifying level. His entire body circulated with dark golden light, generating waves of unfathomable might.
But after that, Qin Wentian appeared once more to fight him over the inheritance. And in addition, this time around Qin Wentian had truly succeeded in seizing it away. How could Mo Xie not be enraged? At their first clash, he was injured. Now after establishing his powerful physique, he was injured once again.
There was no change to the opponents grouped in front of him—they were still Qin Wentian, Qing`er, and Nanfeng Yunxi.
"How powerful. Apparently, Mo Xie wasn’t the only one to grow stronger, Qin Wentian has also achieved a transformation. The runic light circulating around him now seems extremely powerful. His whole body is radiating with a fearsome might," somebody commented as he observed Qin Wentian.
"Qin Wentian seems to have established a different kind of physique? Could it be that in front of that golden body, Mo Xie wasn’t the only one to succeed in establishing a supremely powerful one? Qin Wentian managed to do it as well?"
Looking at Qin Wentian now, it was clear that his body contained a unique physique. His aura had grown much vaster, and there was a mysterious energy emanating from him that gave off a sense of unfathomability. It was extremely powerful.
And not just Qin Wentian, Qing`er had also transformed. Her eyes contained hints of a demonic charm, and the diagrams within their depths were immeasurably deep, capable of unleashing a horrifying might. This daughter of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor seemed to have boundless potential, and a heaven-startling secret hidden inside her.
"In that case, Mo Xie won’t have the advantage when facing against these three. They’re all too powerful."
The spectators saw Mo Xie stabilizing his aura, and the rumbling waves of energy sounded out once more. Rays of dark golden light shot out from Mo Xie’s eyes as he stared coldly at Qin Wentian and the other two. This was already the second time. After he established the indestructible physique, he’d still been injured by Qin Wentian. Mo Xie wouldn’t stand for such a humiliation.
And Qin Wentian’s attack was actually this strong. One must know that Qin Wentian’s cultivation level was lower than his, and only at the eighth-level. And logically, the attacks from an eighth-level ascendant shouldn’t be able to shake him up at all. Even if he stood there and allowed his opponent to attack freely, his opponent would still be helpless.
However, Qin Wentian’s God’s Hand contained enough power to actually injure him. How violent and tyrannical was his attack?
—BOOM!— Mo Xie stepped out again. But at this exact moment, Qin Wentian coldly spoke, "Do it!"
As the sound of his voice faded, he, Qing`er, and Nanfeng Yunxi surrounded Mo Xie. In an instant, all the other geniuses retreated rapidly to a distant position. No one dared to be near them.
chi…… They saw Mo Xie stab his finger outward. Instantly, a terrifying surge of devilish tribulation force convergedinto a fearsome devil sabre that directly slashed forth, aiming for Qin Wentian. If this sabre blow were to land, it was enough to bring about a violent death to the target.
Qin Wentian used the God’s Hand to materialize a spear. At the tip of this spear, boundless runic light sparkled as a pure white energy infused into it. Qin Wentian pierced forward with the spear, as though wanting it to penetrate everything, It blasted directly into the devilish sabre that was slashing towards him, and shattered it completely.
If Qin Wentian’s earlier attack was considered a sneak attack, this time around it was clearly a head-on strike. He used the tyrannical offensive power of the God’s Hand to repel Mo Xie’s attack. Once again, the surrounding geniuses were struck by how domineering Qin Wentian’s strength truly was.
Nanfeng Yunxi stretched out her palm. Instantly, an ancient phoenix flashed by as manifestations of phoenix wings slashed out an unending storm of blades. The tip of the wings contained a terrifying blazing red glow, ripping forth with indomitable might.
Qing`er also made her move. The spatial currents around her frenziedly spun about as the terrifying lotus diagrams directly imprinted themselves on Mo Xie.
The attacks from all three of them reached Mo Xie at the exact same instant. And no matter how heaven-defying Mo Xie’s strength was, he was still somewhat flustered when dealing with these three powerful opponents.
"These attacks are not enough!" Mo Xie roared in rage, punching out with his fist. With a thunderous explosion, the devilish tribulation force transformed into a world-destroying calamitous might, capable of annihilating everything.
—bzz!— Qin Wentian’s long spear erupted forth again, containing an unstoppable momentum that could break through everything. Mo Xie blasted out a palm imprint to block it, but to his shock, he discovered that the God’s hand had unleashed the spear art with a surge of destructive energy more powerful than ever before, easily shattering his golden palm imprint.
The chaotic spatial currents possessed an extreme threat towards Mo Xie as they were able to bind him. Qing`er’s strength was already very powerful. Right now, her strength had climbed to a level roughly three to four times more powerful compared to before. The Immortal Slaying Diagram shot out directly towards Mo Xie.
Mo Xie stretched his hand outwards and a fearsome devilish might erupted from him. Boundless runes condensed into an abyss of darkness as Mo Xie launched out numerous palm strikes that slammed into the Immortal Slaying Diagram. His palm imprints transformed into a diagram of darkness, colliding head on against the Immortal Slaying Diagram and frantically devoured the energy within.
—BOOM!— The God’s Hand powered Qin Wentian’s attack, causing the strike to land with a speed as fast as lightning. The light glowing around his body contained a unique might within that could destroy all things in existence. The God’s Hand gathered this boundless strength and unleashed it through the spear strike. The manifested spear light spread outwards, over 10,000 meters wide, and obliterated every type of energy that made contact with it.
Mo Xie simply stood staring at Qin Wentian’s attack. His other hand also stretched out as boundless tribulation devilish force transformed into a dark golden shield, exhibiting the strongest defense.
At this moment, the strongest spear and the most sturdy shield collided against each other.
A deafening blast rang out as cracks appeared on the shield. But at the same time, a surge of devilish tribulation force shot out from within the shield, aiming towards Qin Wentian.
Both of Mo Xie’s hands were defending against the terrifying attacks of these two supreme experts. He transformed into an ancient devil, its body dark golden in color, and possessed a heaven-shaking might.
However, he was already struggling to fight against the two. At this moment, Nanfeng Yunxi’s cold eyes turned over, causing Mo Xie’s countenance to stiffen. He wanted to hurry and break free from Qin Wentian and Qing`er’s attacks, but what kind of people were they? The moment he struggled free, they would use that instant to deal a death-dealing strike at him.
Mo Xie’s tribulation devil constellation shone even more intensely, shooting beams of light towards Nanfeng Yunxi.
With a wave of her hand, the phantom of an ancient phoenix appeared. The wings of the phoenix closed, wrapping around her protectively, and Nanfeng Yunxi then radiated a powerful energy that blocked the dark golden beams of light shooting from Mo Xie’s constellation.
chi…… After the attacks abated, Nanfeng Yunxi transformed into a beam of light that erupted towards Mo Xie. In that instant, an endless shower of beautiful winged attacks fell down like rain and lacerated Mo Xie’s defenses apart. He inclined his head; his dark golden eyes were extremely cold. Mo Xie had acknowledged that he was not their opponent if the three of them joined forces. There was a trace of hesitation in his eyes.
—BOOM!— Another terrifying sound rang out. Mo Xie’s dark golden shield had finally broken apart. Qin Wentian’s spear shimmered with a brilliant light as he stabbed it towards Mo Xie.
At this instant, Mo Xie’s defense finally broke down completely. Under pressure from his three attackers, he was even in danger of dying.
"SCRAM!" Mo Xie roared in anger. Mo Xie could be considered a man of principle. Even now, he was still only using his own energy to defend, without borrowing the aid from an immortal-ranked weapon. Qin Wentian stabbed him with the spear he’d created with the God’s Hand, and traces of blood could be seen on his indestructible body. Despite his vast might and powerful aura, he was still forced ruthlessly backwards. His body trembled involuntarily from the impact as he did his best to stablize his footing.
Qin Wentian continued forward. His eyes were ice-cold without a hint of his earlier civility. Mo Xie was ranked second in the Immortal Ascension Rankings and had even obtained the inheritances of two ancient emperors. One could very well imagine how powerful he was. As for Qin Wentian himself, he was only at the eighth-level of Celestial Phenomenon. It was clear he would still be somewhat weaker.
Mo Xie stared as the three of them advance towards him, as though with the intention of claiming his life. His eyes erupted forth with a terrifying light as a burst of immortal might flooded the area, and he instantly dashed forward.
"EVADE!" Qing`er shouted. Her spatial energy enveloped the other two as they narrowly dodged the attack. Mo Xie continued sprinting towards the exit of the cave and as he reached it, he turned his head and coldly stared at the three of them, putting away his immortal ranked weapon. "Your actions today. I, Mo Xie, will remember them."
And with that, his silhouette flickered as he vanished from sight.
Qin Wentian retracted his energy, and took a deep breath. Just now, Mo Xie had only wanted to escape, and hadn’t used his immortal-ranked weapon against them. As the one ranked second in the Immortal Ascension Rankings, Mo Xie disdained such actions.
If he truly used that immortal-ranked weapon to defeat them, he would no longer be Mo Xie.
"Let’s leave. Mo Xie has been beaten back, and the final true inheritance will soon be seized by Qin Wentian." The other geniuses stared at the three of them. They depended on their astounding strength to defeat Mo Xie, someone who obtained the inheritance of two ancient emperors, and had succeeded in forcing him to flee. When the three of them joined forces, it was truly too terrifying.
However, now that Qin Wentian had seized his inheritance……would Mo Xie still spare Qin Wentian?
Zi Daoyang, Mo Xie and Qin Wentian; all three were in the City of Ancient Emperors. It seemed to be destined that a storm of immense proportions would soon rise up between these three!
