Chapter 493: Chapter 441: Honghu Feather Sword, Great River Ancient Country
The Emperor Dragon Fist!
The supreme killing technique of the royal family, demonstrated powerfully by the Spirit Realm Third Level Zhu Yousong, left countless people astounded.
Ever since his defeat at the hands of Pei Xuanjing, Zhu Yousong had rarely made his move in public. Many people believed that he was no longer able to keep up with the current top powerful talents.
But today, the power he displayed made many people realize that the long-silent Prince of Xiang hadn’t regressed, but had advanced further.
Boom!
The collision between the Fist Seal and Sword Qi let out a thunderous noise.
The roaring air waves, surging True Qi, fiery Blood Qi, sharp Sword Qi, and the dominating Heavenly Dragon clashed fiercely, like the thunder destined to destroy the world, the Heavenly Dragon roared in anger.
“It’s impressive that you were able to withstand my attack; you have some ability,” a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the Black-armored Guard.
The power behind the opponent’s punch was much stronger than he had expected, but it was only that much and nothing more!
The next thing, he took a step forward again, and the terrifying aura on his body was released.
Then, sword light flashed, and an even more horrifying strike was slashed out.
Such a terrorizing aura darkened Zhu Yousong’s face, a touch of astonishment in his eyes.
Spirit Realm Fourth Level!
The Black-armored Guard was a strong warrior at the Fourth Level of the Spiritual Realm. Then, how strong would the leader—the man in silver armor—be, and what is his cultivation level?
Not only him but also many Spirit Realm powerhouses around had noticed the guard’s strength by now.
“This is the Honghu Feather Sword! These are people from Jiang Country,” Xue Hanyi suddenly spoke, his words reaching clearly into everyone’s ears.
He had felt slightly familiar when facing the opponent’s casual strike before, but he hadn’t been able to see through their identities yet. However, when the opponent made the second strike, Xue Hanyi finally remembered the opponent’s swordsmanship.
Honghu Feather Sword, also originating from the Sky Wasteland World, is a royal martial art from the Great River ancient country. Only members of the royal family or those with their approval can practice it. Anyone else found practicing it will face relentless revenge from the Great River ancient country.
Like Da Xue ancient country, this Great River ancient country also inherited the status of the vassal country from the Heavenly Zhou Era. After many years, they have also become a primary power in the Sky Wasteland World.
Being two ancient countries, Da Xue and Great River are relatively close, and frequent conflicts happen between them. They bear a grudge against each other.
The last thing Xue Hanyi expected was for people from Jiang Kingdom to be here as well.
“However, even if they bring along a Spirit Realm Sixth Level powerhouse, they may not necessarily get the upper hand and are likely to lose more than they can gain,” Xue Hanyi looked at those numerous strong men from Jiang Country who stood proudly in the sky, secretly thinking.
After noticing Pei Xuanjing’s show-stopping performance at the fight against the Howling Moon Gray Wolf, Xue Hanyi’s admiration for Pei Xuanjing had reached a new height.
From his perspective, Pei Xuanjing, in this ancestral land, is an invincible existence currently. Unless a Spirit Realm Seventh Level powerhouse appears while Heaven and Earth have yet to fully recover, nobody can resist Pei Xuanjing.
The arrogance of these people from Jiang Country, daring to try and seize the Golden Book and Jade Scroll, was a search for a dead end.
Seeing these people’s identities exposed by Xue Hanyi, many at the scene realized that these unexpected guests were also from the Sky Wasteland.
However, now facing the powerhouses who have returned from the Sky Wasteland, the Spirit Realm powerhouses on the scene were not particularly intimidated. After all, the strength demonstrated by Pei Xuanjing was enough to suppress everything.
Boom!
Zhu Yousong, Prince of Xiang, was forced back several miles by the violent force. After all, he had just broken into the Spirit Realm’s Third Level. Facing a Spirit Realm Fourth Level powerhouse, even with his top-notch martial skill, he could hardly make up for the gap between them. His defeat was not surprising.
Just as the Black-armored Guard tried to attack the Prince of Xiang again intending to kill him, someone blocked him.
A ray of light emitted from the Imperial Jade Seal in Zhu Houji’s hand, shot towards the opponent’s long sword.
Clang!
A soft sound was heard; the light swept over, dissolving the long sword directly, and the remaining light pierced through the body of the Black-armored Guard, leaving a huge hole in his chest.
“Aargh!”
In tremendous pain, the Black-armored Guard screamed and fell from the sky.
However, one of his comrades acted immediately and rescued him.
Everyone was shocked, unable to believe that the powerful Zhu Yousong would be defeated so easily, and he had almost lost his life too.
What caused them to stare in disbelief was what happened next. The Black-armored Guard, who had so easily defeated Zhu Yousong, was unable to react in time and was almost killed instantly by Zhu Houji using the power from the Imperial Jade Seal.
This was the first time Zhu Houji had made a move in front of everyone; no one would have thought that the Emperor of Great Ming would be hiding his skills so deeply. The way Zhu Houji easily defeated the Spirit Realm Fourth Level Warrior, even almost killing him, caused a chill to run down everyone’s spines.
If their previous attitudes towards Emperor Zhu Houji had been somewhat contemptuous, now this one move alone was enough to cause people’s fear and awe.
“Is this the might of the Divine Dynasty’s ruler?”
“Ascending to the Divine Dynasty, even without possessing the Golden Book and Jade Scroll, the power they possess simply due to the Imperial Jade Seal places them at the apex of the world.”
Many minds were racing with conjecture, speculating about what benefits Emperor Zhu Houji had gained when ascending to the Divine Dynasty.
Seeing the warrior rescued, Zhu Houji’s eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. Several rays of light emanated from the Imperial Jade Seal again, falling over the group.
“Courting Death!” The silver-armored young man’s face twisted with anger at Zhu Houji’s move. With a roar, he swung his long spear and stabbed out.
The terrifying Spear Intent emerged, seeming to pierce everything, crossing the sky. In an instant, it blocked all the rays of light.
The silver-armored youth jolted the body of his spear; the spear stabbed through the void, like a starry river. The roar of dragons and the howl of tigers echoed as he suppressed Zhu Houji.
Hmm!
Zhu Houji’s face tightened, feeling the terrifying Spear Intent. He felt as if he was submerged in a sea of corpses and blood, surrounded by countless spears stabbing towards him, unavoidable and inescapable.
He was able to display such tremendous strength just now by borrowing the power of the Imperial Jade Seal and the blessings of Heaven and Earth, as the heaven’s favor had not yet dissipated after the Divine Dynasty’s ascension. That was why he manifested such mightiness.
But Zhu Houji’s real experience in battles was hardly profound. He had just suppressed his strength, and now when facing such domineering and brutal Spear Intent from the silver-armored youth, he didn’t have many means to counter it.
In an instant, he felt his hair standing on end, and his heart trembled with terror.
“Hehe!”
A soft laughter echoed, spreading in all directions. Like a spring breeze, it easily dispersed the fierce and domineering Spear Intent of the silver-armored youth.
