Chapter 2827: Chapter 2827: Knocked Out with One Punch

When the Golden Armored Divine Venerable Realm Expert appeared at this place, he saw Baihua, Linglong, and other Goddesses, discovering they all had Innate Spiritual Roots. His heart filled with delight, he desired to take them as Daoist partners, cultivating together in the future to enhance his cultivation level.

Later, he learned that Baihua and the others were from the Starlord Hall of Vermilion Phoenix Star, yet they did not recognize his direct disciple, Wei Wuji. He guessed some upheaval might have occurred on Vermilion Phoenix Star, and planned to capture them to go and find out.

Baihua and the others were injured, their combat power somewhat impaired. They didn’t have time to form a formation again, watching helplessly as the Divine Power Palm descended, hopelessness in their eyes.

"He’s back..."

Baihua suddenly sensed an extremely familiar aura, her delicate body trembling slightly. Murmuring to herself, her eyes already welled with tears.

The other Goddesses in the Emperor’s Palace also had tears welling in their eyes.

Wu De, Ghost Hand, and other male experts, upon sensing that familiar aura, burst into laughter.

Whether it was Baihua or Wu De, they all knew Fang Bai had returned.

Other experts, including the Golden Armored Divine Venerable Realm Expert, were utterly baffled by the tears and laughter from the Goddesses of the Emperor’s Palace.

Even the Divine Power Palm unleashed by the Golden Armored Divine Venerable Realm Expert paused momentarily before continuing to descend.

"Get out of my way!"

With a loud shout, a gold-gleaming large fist appeared out of thin air, drawing a golden tail, and struck the descending Divine Power Palm.

The fist and palm collided, the palm instantly perforated by the fist, disappeared.

"How...how is this possible!"

The face of the Golden Armored Divine Venerable Realm Expert changed drastically, exclaiming in shock.

He had sensed that the newcomer was of the same realm and cultivation level as himself, also at the initial stage of the Divine Venerable Realm. However, the divine power contained in the other’s punch was something an initial stage Divine Venerable Realm Expert couldn’t possibly muster?

This was clearly a crushing dominance born of a realm gap!

The Golden Armored Divine Venerable Realm Expert, being well-informed, immediately thought of the term "cross-level challenge" and suspected his own misfortune for encountering an expert capable of cross-level challenges, who also seemed to know these Goddesses.

The golden-gleaming punch, having broken through the Divine Power Palm, continued unabated, smashing toward the Golden Armored Divine Venerable Realm Expert.

Unable to dodge, the Golden Armored Divine Venerable Realm Expert had to grit his teeth, forming a defense qi shield in front of him, readying himself with his divine artifact for full resistance.

"Boom!"

Upon impact of divine power, a shock wave erupted, the Golden Armored Divine Venerable Realm Expert flew backward like lightning, crashing through layers of rock, breaking through the water of a great lake, emerging beyond to the starry sky.

The power of that punch was formidable, directly knocking the Golden Armored Divine Venerable Realm Expert from beneath the rocky strata to the starlit sky above the lake.

The Golden Armored Divine Venerable Realm Expert, his body limply suspended in the starry sky, was knocked unconscious by that punch.

"Looks like I arrived just in time!"

Fang Bai’s figure, along with his voice, appeared before the Goddesses of the Emperor’s Palace.

Seeing Fang Bai with a slight smile on his face, the Hundred Flowers Empress and other Goddesses broke into laughter through their tears.

Wu De, Ghost Hand, and other experts of the Emperor’s Palace cheered aloud.

"You’ve ascended to the Divine Venerable Realm?"

Baihua sensed Fang Bai’s aura with a face full of surprise and delight.

The other close companions also surrounded Fang Bai, scrutinizing him up and down.

They discovered that, since parting ways with him years ago, Fang Bai’s essence, energy, and spirit had all undergone qualitative changes, undoubtedly reflecting significant breakthroughs in his realm and cultivation.

The punch Fang Bai had just thrown directly knocked the Golden Armored Divine Venerable Realm Expert unconscious, showcasing formidable combat power and implying that his realm had indeed reached the Divine Venerable Realm.

"That’s right, I am now a Divine Venerable Realm expert."

Hearing Baihua’s inquiry, Fang Bai nodded with a smile, under the attention of the Goddesses of the Emperor’s Palace.

"Wow, amazing!"

"The Divine Venerable Realm, it’s a major realm higher than us!"

"The gap between our realms seems to have widened again!"

"With you, a Divine Venerable Realm expert, overseeing our palace, who would dare to provoke us now?"

"You’re back now; hopefully you won’t wander off again anytime soon, and can guide our cultivation well!"

...

The ladies surrounded Fang Bai, patting and touching him, their hearts filled with joy, laughing uncontrollably.

"Two friends have returned with me; let me introduce you to them!"

Speaking, Fang Bai and the other experts of the Emperor’s Palace burst out of the underground rock strata, using the water avoidance art to part the lake water, appearing above the lake surface.

Although they left the Divine Crystal Vein, they didn’t leave the place, while the various experts who originally coveted the Divine Crystal Vein lost interest and left after Fang Bai appeared and punched the Golden Armored Divine Venerable Realm Expert unconscious.

They didn’t possess Divine Venerable Realm strength, staying on would only invite humiliation without benefit.

The enticing Divine Crystal Vein had to be abandoned.

"Great Might Divine King, Rongrong, please come down for a talk!"

Flying above the great lake, after seizing the Golden Armored Divine Venerable Realm Expert’s Spatial Divine Realm, Fang Bai no longer paid him heed, instead calling towards a starship in the starry sky.

On the starship in the starry sky, an old man and a young lady in yellow looked down at Fang Bai and the experts of the Emperor’s Palace below.

The old man and young lady were the Great Might Divine King and his granddaughter, Rongrong.

After leaving the Huanyun Star System with Fang Bai, they had been searching for an alchemist capable of refining Divine Elixirs for the Divine King Realm, inadvertently passing by this Qiyun Star.

Feeling the aura of Baihua and the experts of the Emperor’s Palace, Fang Bai immediately rushed out of the starship, intervening at a critical moment to halt the Golden Armored Divine Venerable Realm Expert’s attack.

Throughout the process, neither the Great Might Divine King nor his granddaughter intervened because they knew Fang Bai alone was sufficient to handle the situation.

"Could all those Goddesses around that rascal be his Daoist partners?"

Seeing the swarm of beauties around Fang Bai, the Great Might Divine King was momentarily stunned and murmured to himself.

Rongrong, observing the expressions and movements of Baihua, Linglong, and other Goddesses towards Fang Bai, recognized the unusual relationship among them, causing her expression to dim.

She had thought Fang Bai had only one Daoist partner, not expecting so many.

"Come! Let’s go down and have a look! I must ask Fang Bai why, having so many Daoist partners, he yet refuses to accept you."

Thus spoke the Great Might Divine King, putting away the starship into his Spatial Divine Ring, then descended alongside Rongrong to Fang Bai’s front.

The Goddesses of the Emperor’s Palace, having received Fang Bai’s transmission, knew the old man was a Divine King Realm expert, and even the young lady in yellow was a mid-stage Divine Venerable Realm expert, thus respectfully paying homage.

Therefore, when Fang Bai introduced the grandfather-granddaughter pair, the Goddesses of the Emperor’s Palace simultaneously bowed, voicing in unison: "Greetings, Upper God!"

The Great Might Divine King, initially bristling at the sight of so many exquisite Goddesses around Fang Bai, intending to call him to account.

But now, with the Goddesses of the Emperor’s Palace treating him so courteously, he considered them under Fang Bai’s command and restrained himself.
