Chapter 679 - 656 Battle Creation Realm (3/3)
"Is this the true face of a Creation Realm expert?"
Zhou Heng suddenly understood why the Great Eternal Emperor had attacked Juexian City—it was because so many people thoroughly deserved a beating and pulling them out for a thrashing would be satisfying!
Right now, he too wanted to thrash these three old codgers!
"You’ve all lived long enough, isn’t it about time you performed a blood sacrifice on yourselves?" Zhou Heng sneered, punching toward the Old Golden-faced Expert.
He let out a long howl, his Martial King’s aura billowing, and on his fist appeared attacking Minor Runes, gathering twenty Broken Runes for a probing attempt.
Bang!
The two collided with a strike, both shuddered and simultaneously stepped back.
This hit was an even match!
"Hm?" The Old Golden-faced Man’s eyes narrowed. This youngster could actually withstand his blow—interesting! But just slightly interesting; such a small fry wouldn’t even be looked at twice in the outside world, he could blow over ten thousand with a breath. If not for the special circumstances here, how could he even spare a second glance, let alone engage in combat?
"Young man, being able to sacrifice your life for us is an honor for you!" said the old man, shamelessly as he launched another palm strike, his palm forming a crescent moon mark as he swept it toward Zhou Heng.
"Bullshit!" Zhou Heng roared in anger, throwing his punch with the number of Broken Minor Runes increased to forty, flashing with golden light, and with its power surged explosively.
Bang!
The two exchanged another hit, again resulting in a stalemate.
"Quite interesting!" the Old Golden-faced Man revealed a hint of intrigue, "Your cultivation technique seems quite impressive!"
"Impressive? I could slaughter you like a dog!" Zhou Heng sneered. This was the Blood River Heavenly Scripture, fiercely sought after by peak-level beings like Dongguo Heng and other Creation Emperors, it even allowed the Old Blood River Ancestor to touch the threshold of further advancement—was it just ’quite’ impressive?
If this opponent recognized it as the Blood River Heavenly Scripture, he’d probably risk his life to snatch it!
"Outrageous!" the Old Golden-faced Man’s face twisted in anger. He really hadn’t taken anyone here seriously—what did it matter if thousands, tens of thousands of these insects died! His figure flickered as he closed in on Zhou Heng, initiating close combat.
This would be even more dangerous!
Zhou Heng snorted coldly, fists swinging, Broken Minor Runes going wild, his battle power astonishing, capable of reverse-slaying a Low-Tier Sunshine Sovereign.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Old and young engaged in a fierce fight—one a Sunshine King surpassing limits, and the other a Creation Realm Expert with his Realm suppressed, both capable of unleashing Sunshine Sovereign-level battle power, turning the sky dark and the grounds dim in their fight.
Meanwhile, other bystanders had been thrown out by the other two Creation Realm experts to be blood sacrificed, leaving only Zhou Heng and, under his protection, Black Donkey and Bing Xiulan alive and the three Creation Realm experts.
"Old Monkey, taking so long to deal with a mere Sunshine King?" taunted the scrawny old man.
"Hahaha, I just wanted to observe his cultivation technique a bit longer! Since Brother Xuan Yang is getting impatient, I shall end this fight within three moves!" laughed the Old Golden-faced Man as he suddenly accelerated, sending waves of cloud light shooting behind him, transforming into swathes of Divine Radiance, slashing toward Zhou Heng.
This was his Mysterious Technique, capable of instantaneously destroying a swath of stars if executed with his real body in the outer world!
Limited by the suppression of Realm here, naturally, it wouldn’t unleash such tremendous power, but it was more than sufficient to execute a Sunshine King of ten cycles!
Whiz, whiz, whiz, countless swaths of purple cloud light flew toward him, each harboring the ferocious destructive power to instantly annihilate anything!
Zhou Heng’s expression stern, he fully deployed his defense, the entire space already sealed by the purple cloud light, unable to evade using Swift Cloud Radiant Step, he had to endure the barrage head-on!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Swath after swath of purple cloud light slammed into him, Zhou Heng’s figure forcibly pushed back by the terrifying force, boom, boom, boom, he did not know how many Cloud Slashes he had endured when after being pushed back hundred yards, he finally stopped.
"What!"
The three Creation Realm experts simultaneously showed a surprised expression because Zhou Heng had actually blocked that strike, and furthermore... he was unharmed!
Impossible!
Unless, this young man’s physique had reached the level of a Sunshine Realm Immortal Artifact!
Hiss!
The three great experts exchanged looks, all slightly furrowing their brows.
Out in the open, let alone a Sunshine Realm Immortal Artifact, even a Sublimation Realm Immortal Artifact would be crushed by their hands! But in this special environment, a physique like a Sunshine Realm Immortal Artifact marked him with an Undying seal!
And they still didn’t know to what extent Zhou Heng’s physique had reached—if it were at Sunshine King, it could be said; Sunshine Sovereign-level battle power could cause damage, and continuous attacks would definitely cause wear and tear!
But if it were at Sunshine Sovereign, Sunshine Emperor levels—then it would be unsolvable here!
Unless they three were willing to exert strength surpassing that of a Sunshine King!
But the consequences of their actions... they had already seen them!
"Just like that!" Zhou Heng declared proudly, his eyes blazing with murderous intent, "Since a blood sacrifice is still needed, you three just fit the bill!"
What?
The Three Great Experts of the Creation Realm were stunned. How many years had it been since they had heard such audacious words in their long lives? To use them for a blood sacrifice? Hahaha, that must be the biggest joke under heaven!
"Ignorant child!" The Old Golden-faced Man struck again, his face grim as he reached out a hand, a terrifying aura swirling around, but before he could reach Zhou Heng, a pop sounded on the back of his palm, and a spray of blood burst forth!
The old fellow had used the power of a Sunshine Sovereign, thus suffering the counterattack of the restriction here, but he wasn’t instantly annihilated like the previous expert of the Creation Realm!
Pop! Pop! Pop!
As his palm rapidly approached, the old man’s entire arm continued to burst with sprays of blood. This punishment from the restriction wasn’t a one-time affair, but continuously applied, though not as intensely.
This palm strike was terrifying indeed!
Zhou Heng’s gaze sharpened, and on his fists, he instantly condensed ninety-nine Broken Runes. He too went all out, pushing the might of his attack runes to the extreme as he faced the Old Golden-faced Man.
Boom!
The two clashed with a powerful strike!
A terrifying wave of power instantly reverberated through the cave, actually forcing the other two experts of the Creation Realm to step back repeatedly!
There was no helping it, they were currently suppressed to the level of a Sunshine King, and combating this force required the capability of a Sunshine Sovereign. If they were unwilling to unleash greater strength, they had no choice but to keep retreating.
—Being able to force back two Great Experts of the Creation Realm as a Sunshine King would surely make Zhou Heng’s fame skyrocket if the news spread!
Regardless of how special this battle was, those who heard wouldn’t care; they would only remember that a Sunshine King was capable of forcing back two Creation Realm Experts!
"What Immortal Technique is this?" The Old Golden-faced Man was furious, yet both astonished and delighted. He had already stimulated his power to that of a Sunshine Sovereign and, together with his mastery of High-tier Immortal Techniques, even a Sovereign beyond limits should be defeatable!
Yet he could only manage a draw with Zhou Heng!
This youngster was clearly only a ten-round Sunshine King, significantly weaker in strength, which meant the Immortal Technique he mastered must be far superior to his own, compensating for the disparity in strength and evening out their battle power.
Hiss!
A Mysterious Technique more profound than his own?
Could the Old Golden-faced Man not be shocked? Could he not be delighted? As long as he killed Zhou Heng, he could extract the Deities within him and directly access Zhou Heng’s memories without having to interrogate him; this ancient and unparalleled Immortal Technique could then be his!
He knew quality when he saw it, and the other two experts of the Creation Realm also had keen eyesight, showing a greedy glint. But they were also curious, wondering which family’s prodigy this 12- or 13-year-old boy might be.
None from Zi Immortal City, Chou Immortal City, or Yin Immortal City seemed to have such a prodigy... Could he be from Juexian City?
Although the three experts were all of the Creation Realm, none were Creation Emperors, and didn’t have the qualifications to reside in Juexian City, the symbol of the highest status in the Immortal Realm. They could only guess whether Zhou Heng might be the genius of Juexian City.
But the temptation of the Immortal Technique was too great, and even if Zhou Heng carried some communication device, it was useless here where contact with the outside world was blocked. As long as they killed him silently, it would truly be unnoticed by gods and undetected by ghosts!
"Hahaha, this is a divine stroke of luck!" Although the Old Golden-faced Man began to bleed profusely all over, he laughed heartily, thinking that this Immortal Technique might compare with the Dragon Transformation Nine Slashes!
His onslaught grew even more fierce.
But it was useless, Zhou Heng’s attack runes hailed from the Blood River Heavenly Scripture, immensely lethal, and together with his savage physical defense, battling a Sunshine Sovereign was nothing to him!
The Old Golden-faced Man had the advantage of continuous strength, fearing no collapse of power, but he also dared not waste it, for the restriction continuously attacked him. Although it didn’t blow him up, was it fun to bleed like this?
If he elevated his battle power again, reaching the levels of a Sunshine Emperor or even a Sublimation King, suppressing Zhou Heng would be mere play. But by doing so, he might destroy himself!
For an unrivaled Immortal Technique, he could bear the loss of a Divine Aspect, but the key issue was the other two experts of the Creation Realm. If he made the sacrifice, would they share the Immortal Technique with him?
In his opinion, absolutely not; such an Immortal Technique would surely be hoarded as a family’s highest legacy, the fewer who shared it, the better!
Then, how could he dare to do this?
"Fellow elders, let’s attack together!" the Old Golden-faced Man called out, unwilling to be the only one exerting himself.
The other two experts looked at each other and nodded in agreement. They also realized it was unrealistic to let the Old Golden-faced Man burst forth alone; there were no such kind-hearted fools in the world!
The three Creation Realm Experts stepped forward simultaneously, launching their attack on Zhou Heng!
If this were to get out, it would surely be sensational!
Zhou Heng sneered, flicked his right hand and drew out the Hundred Ghosts Sword. As he turned the blade, a Spiritual Power Ghost Creature immediately materialized from nowhere, emitting a piercing shriek as it attacked the three experts. His left fist clenched tight, the ninety-nine attack runes gleamed coldly, circulating the battle aura of a Martial King, almost unleashing his strongest battle power.
Bring on the battle; who was he afraid of? (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it on qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to continue reading.)
