Chapter 2044: Chapter 1907: The Great Battle Begins

Dragons and tigers gathered!

The depths of Huo Sang Ancient Star had become a place of right and wrong, with powerful Trialists arriving one after another.

Seeing the majestic palace looming ahead, they were all extremely shocked.

Without a doubt, they all knew this was an Emperor’s Palace of a Great Emperor.

"Could this be the palace of the Golden Crow Saint Emperor?"

Someone guessed, feeling uneasy inside!

The Golden Crow clan may be Exotic Birds, but they can also cultivate into human form; in the distant Ancient Times, perhaps such a Golden Crow Saint Emperor really did exist.

After all, Huo Sang Ancient Star was the Ancestor Star of the Golden Crow clan, their place of origin; birthing a Saint Emperor was not impossible.

As more and more people arrived, the place grew increasingly lively.

However, everyone was very restrained; none approached, instead choosing to stay far away and observe.

Obviously, even Xiao Peng Emperor and Ba Cangtian hadn’t entered the Emperor’s Palace; there must be powerful Forbidden restrictions blocking the way, and they weren’t willing to touch that bad luck.

"Rumble..."

The Void trembled, banners billowed, war horns cried!

An Azure Gold War Chariot carried more than ten strong people into view in the distance; the leader’s eyes shot out two streaks of Golden Light, piercing through heaven and earth.

Seeing Xiao Peng Emperor and Ba Cangtian had already taken favorable positions, he didn’t fight over it; instead he chose an angle from which he could charge into the Emperor Palace quickly, drove away the people nearby, and stopped.

"Buzz!"

A powerful aura swept over, shocking everyone’s hearts; they all turned toward the source of the fluctuation!

The aura of the Xuan Realm!

The Void split open; with Yue Haoyu in the lead, the Xuan Realm’s strong people crossed the Void in stride, walked out from the Domain Gate, and descended here.

Led by Yue Haoyu, more than ten people, each walked like dragons and tigers, faces cold and murderous, their surging blood like giant dragons, shooting out of the top of the skull and blasting through the sky.

Besides Yue Haoyu and Yue Chuan, the two Emperor’s sons, the Great Demon and Yu chanzi were a pair of quarrelsome lovers, while Li Yu’er and Wen TaDou were complete oddballs.

Aside from those six, there were seven more who had also stepped from the Xuan Realm onto the Xing Kong Gu Road; though not of the younger generation, their strength was formidable.

Time flowed on; the years sang like a song!

The rising stars of the Xuan Realm had also stepped onto the Xing Kong Gu Road, which made Ye Fan feel a wave of emotion!

His time was running out; he had to finish gathering the materials to refine the Soul Gathering Pill as quickly as possible and return to Earth.

He didn’t know how much longer Su Liuli could wait!

Soul shattered and spirit scattered—this was death for ordinary people; even mere brain death was something modern medicine could not conquer.

Yet in Ye Fan’s heart there had always been a sliver of hope: to revive the dead, to Reunite Souls—perhaps it really wasn’t just a dream.

No matter what, even if there was only one percent chance, he would put in ten thousand percent effort, leaving himself no regrets.

Su Liuli’s death was a boulder pressing on his heart; if he couldn’t bring her back, then everything else became meaningless.

At this moment, Ye Fan was hidden within a Stone; no one could sense his existence.

The Dragon Seeking Formulas were truly a peerless strange technique: seek Dragon Veins, lock mountain rivers, fix Spiritual Ore, Star Shifting.

On the Xing Kong Gu Road, in the Demon World, over these years he had gradually comprehended the secret techniques within the Dragon Seeking Formulas to an extremely profound realm; though not yet at Great Perfection, he was not far off.

"I’ve been waiting for you to show up!"

The Xuan Realm crowd had just stepped out of the Domain Gate when Baling let out a vicious laugh, threw a punch at them, his blazing Punch Ray tearing heaven and earth.

"Boom!"

Yue Haoyu showed no fear, swinging his hand to meet the blow, clashing head-on; the strike shattered the land, magma roared, and a winnowing-basket-sized black hole appeared in the Void, lingering for a long time.

One strike!

Evenly matched!

Baling and the others were about to attack again when the Human Emperor’s Son Yue Chuan’s voice rang out: "Are you sure you want to decide victory and defeat, life and death with my Xuan Realm before we break the Forbidden and enter the Emperor Palace?"

Baling froze. From that single exchange he’d already sensed that Yue Haoyu’s strength was no less than his, perhaps even greater; if they truly decided victory and defeat, life and death right now, it would definitely end in mutual injury, letting others profit for nothing.

As he hesitated, Ba Cangtian of the Xuanhuang Ancient Star Domain let out a cold laugh, strode forward, and swept a chilly gaze over the Xuan Realm crowd.

"What if you include us?"

As he moved, Quasi-Emperor successor Xin Buzu and the others also stepped up, standing beside Baling, forming a terrifying force.

The onlookers felt their hearts clench, knowing this matter would be hard to resolve peacefully; Ba Cangtian and Di Tang, the Emperor’s son of Saint Descent Ancient Star, along with Baling, had formed an alliance.

This was absolutely bad news for them.

With two great forces allied, they could only be knocked out of the game, totally unable to contend, much less fight over any opportunities.

At this moment, all gazes locked onto the Xuan Realm crowd, especially Yue Haoyu.

Recently, storms had been raging, with many rumors spreading that strong people of the Xuan Realm had ambushed and killed other Trialists, seeking to monopolize a peerless fate, making the Xuan Realm crowd the target of everyone’s arrows.

"Are you sure you want to go all out?"

Sensing their killing intent, Yue Haoyu frowned, feeling that things were taking a bad turn.

A life-and-death battle would likely be unavoidable.

"You’re mistaken!"

Di Tang, the Emperor’s son of Saint Descent Ancient Star, lightly wagged a finger and said with contempt, "This isn’t going all out. It’s sending you on your way, avenging the fallen comrades, keeping you from further endangering the Xing Kong Gu Road and harming the entire Human Race."

"Bullshit!"

"You’re spewing filth from your mouths!"

"Utter shamelessness!"

The other Trialists of the Xuan Realm instantly flew into a rage. This was obviously just an excuse, a Wuxian to smear them.

If this charge was really nailed down, the Xuan Realm would be put at extreme disadvantage on the Xing Kong Gu Road, and might even suffer a total blockade from the entire ancient road. That was no joking matter.

"Got so angry you’ve lost your composure? Too bad it’s useless." Jiang Sheng said coldly.

"You piled up evil deeds on the Ancient Road, ambushed and slew your peers, and were jealous of the worthy and resentful of the capable, attacking us first. Only then were we forced to counterattack and kill you."

Di Tang’s voice was icy, his gaze cruel and sinister. "Besides, the living will always be more valuable than the dead, won’t they? We will, in time, surely become the strongest under the whole starry sky. Are we worth less than a few corpses? I think even if someone blames us in the future, they won’t fail to grasp this truth. So you can go in peace."

"You really are shameless to the extreme!" Even the ever-gentle Wen TaDou was enraged, unable to help wanting to strike.

"You’re wrong. This isn’t shamelessness, it’s strategy. I’m deliberately dumping filth on you so you’ll never be able to wash it off, even in death. Only that is satisfying." Di Tang said with a smile.

"Fuck your grandpa!" The usually tight-lipped Li Yu’er was furious too, and couldn’t help cursing out loud.

"You think the people of the world can all be bullied?" the Great Demon said angrily.

"Why waste words on them, just wipe them out!"

Baling gave a cold snort and struck directly, his Big Halberd smashing apart heaven and earth, thrusting straight for Yue Chuan.

Just now he had already crossed blows with Yue Haoyu and felt it would be hard to defeat him, so he left Yue Haoyu to Jiang Sheng!

"Human Emperor Seal!"

Yue Chuan was utterly fearless. With a soft shout, a gleaming golden Big Seal flew out from between his brows, swelling against the wind, turning into a golden mountain that pressed down toward Baling.

The Human Emperor, revered by the Ten Thousand Clans—once the Emperor Seal appeared, clouds surged from all directions. Everyone felt as though facing a Great Emperor himself, and sincerely wished to kneel.

This was respect for the Great Emperor, and also the reality of power; without overwhelming strength, one simply couldn’t withstand this terrifying Emperor’s Might.

Chaos battle erupted!

While Yue Chuan and Baling crossed blows, Yue Haoyu also engaged both Jiang Sheng and Di Tang at once.

"One bright moon shining through a thousand autumns!"

Right from the start, Yue Haoyu unleashed a peerlessly mighty Absolute Technique. A Bright Moon hung across the sky, forcibly blocking the combined might of Di Tang and Jiang Sheng.

"Hum!"

Yue Haoyu stepped directly into the Bright Moon, merging with it as one. Ten thousand rays of light poured down like Heavenly Swords, slashing wildly. With one against two, he fought a grueling battle.

"Kill!"

Di Tang and Jiang Sheng were shocked and enraged, never expecting to be stopped by Yue Haoyu alone. They each unleashed their strongest martial arts and secret techniques, attacking Yue Haoyu in a frenzy!

At the same time, the Great Demon and the others also met with a siege, locked in an indecisive slaughter.

Ba Cangtian watched from the side and did not move!

He was extremely arrogant, disdaining to gang up with others in a joint siege.

If he fought, it would be single combat. He feared no one, but he refused to bear the reputation of bullying the few with the many.

"Boom!"

The Emperor’s Son Yue Chuan was like the Human Emperor reborn. Every gesture carried the bearing of a Great Emperor, Four Spirits circling him, Ten Thousand Clans in reverence.

"Crack!"

The Human Emperor Seal burst forth Infinite Holy Light, smashing the Big Halberd in half by sheer force, then slammed heavily into Baling, sending him flying and scattering a trail of blood.

"Cough, cough..."

Baling’s face was deathly pale, his chest caved in, clearly with his breastbone shattered.

"You’ve made me angry!"

Baling let out a long howl, his blood energy surging like a raging sea. His entire body shone with blinding light, his injuries recovering in an instant. With a great roar, he lunged at Yue Chuan again.

"Trash!"

Ba Cangtian snorted coldly. "With that level of strength, you dare call yourself a Young Supreme? Since when did Young Supremes become so cheap?"

Stung to the core, Baling completely erupted. His gaze was cold and vicious, black hair wild, his Iron Fists smashing apart all that blocked him, hard against the Human Emperor Seal.

Yue Chuan’s expression was solemn, his moves grand and open. Every strand of hair shone with crystalline luster. The Emperor’s Fist of the Human Emperor was balanced and upright, vast and majestic.

Meanwhile, Yue Haoyu was gradually pushed onto the back foot. After all, he was one against two, and Di Tang was in no way weaker than him. If he hadn’t decided from the start to fight with a death-or-glory resolve, he wouldn’t have been able to withstand their frenzied attacks at all.

The surrounding crowd retreated again and again, afraid of being caught in the battle’s shockwaves, their hearts trembling in shock.

So this was the Combat Power of the Young Supremes? It was simply terrifying. Cultivators of the same realm would probably be blown apart the moment they rushed in, without the slightest suspense.

On the battlefield, it was like three gods colliding. Yue Haoyu’s mouth and nose bled, but his eyes blazed. He desperately unleashed the secret techniques of the Moon Emperor Great Emperor, barely managing to resist.

But the Great Demon and the others had fallen into an arduous fight; the situation was extremely critical. As soon as the two sides clashed, several people were heavily wounded and spat blood.

Di Tang’s follower Mu Qingyi, a Saint Lord of the Early-Stage Venerable Realm, radiated mighty Holy Might from his whole body, mowing down all who blocked him.

Only when he ran into Wen TaDou was his mad slaughter finally checked.

The sky itself bled. The battle was unimaginably tragic. The Xuan Realm crowd fought with their lives, each suffering injuries of varying severity.

"Pu!"

One Trialist of the Xuan Realm spewed blood, half his body beaten into pulp, his Divine Soul also grievously damaged, nearly dying.

"Die for me!"

Di Tang’s follower Luo Qing was vicious and cruel. His ten fingers hooked like claws, grabbing straight for the top of that heavily wounded Trialist’s skull. Threads of Finger Beams were sharp beyond compare!
