Chapter 961: Strongest Battle States

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

In the Underworld Mountains, Zi Daoyang was battling against Qin Wentian, Nanfeng Yunxi, and Little Rascal.

The experts of the Qin Sect were fighting against the Violet Sect, and explosions were occurring everywhere amidst the chaotic battle. It caused the surrounding mountain peaks to crumble, as fissures and cracks opened up in the ground around the area. Rumbling sounds rang out, resembling a scene from the apocalypse.

Zi Daoyang, Qin Wentian, and company were at the center of this battlefield. His gigantic violet palm imprint clashed against Qin Wentian?s God?s Hand, wanting to devour the energy of God?s Hand using the abyss of darkness. However, Qin Wentian?s eyes gleamed with a terrifying light. His entire body shimmered with a resplendent runic light, and the runic lines converged together, forming a divine physique that had the power to suppress everything. In his body, there was a vast might as well as startling divine energy. Multi-colored rays interweaved, circulating around him.

A shocking strength erupted from him, enveloping Zi Daoyang completely. Qin Wentian blasted out with his left palm, able to annihilate all things in existence.

Zi Daoyang snorted coldly, and the gigantic violet palm abruptly separated from the God?s Hand. The boundless violet light then materialized a violet-colored ancient cauldron that shot outwards. Thunderous booming sounds echoed out, destroying the cauldron and Qin Wentian?s attacks.

“ROAR!” Little Rascal roared in rage, the intensity shaking the heavens. A layer of king?s armor enveloped its entire body, and intricate runes could be seen on its sharp talons. It swiftly raked its claws out, forcing Zi Daoyang into retreat.

“Not bad. You guys might have a little strength in you after all.” Zi Daoyang retreated more than a thousand meters away. He stared ahead, stretching out both his hands as boundless violet light manifested countless supreme gigantic cauldrons, each of them capable of causing everything to collapse, rocking all existences from the beginning of time till now.

“Careful!” Nanfeng Yunxi spoke in a low voice. Zi Daoyang?s attacks were growing more and more terrifying. Right now, he was truly angered, and hence more fearsome than ever.

~rumble!~ Qin Wentian?s body expanded once more. This time, his size reached over a hundred meters, causing him to be even larger than the cauldrons. In addition to the unexcelled runic glow circulating around him, he looked like a divinity that hailed from the primordial era. His eyes were incomparably demonic, containing within them an eternal fire.

His gaze swept across the battlefield, and he saw the great battle between the Violet Sect and the Qin Sect. Xiao Lengyue led several experts to entrap Qing`er. His God?s Hand transformed into different sets of runes, materializing a mysterious energy that weaved together into a gigantic heavenly hammer. An all-powerful supreme light blossomed in the skies as a boundless might gushed forth from the heavenly hammer in Qin Wentian?s hand.

“Qing`er, step away!” Qin Wentian called out. An intense spatial energy radiated from Qing`er, enveloping her instantly. The two of them seemed to be connected on a very deep level, achieving an unbelievable degree of tacit understanding. Qin Wentian?s heavenly hammer rose up before ferociously smashing downwards with crushing force.

At this moment, how large was Qin Wentian?s size? With a hundred-meter body, the heavenly hammer in his hand swung downwards like a meteor shooting through the skies. As long as he was willing to, he could attack anywhere he desired.

The instant the heavenly hammer descended, Xiao Lengyue and several experts on her side felt a chaotic and violent current sweeping over them. An inconceivably domineering pressure suppressed them all. Xiao Lengyue struggled to lift her head, and saw only a gigantic heavenly hammer blotting out the skies, containing a trace of immortal might born from law energy. As the heavenly hammer neared, her countenance turned incomparably pale. Qin Wentian?s strike was terrifying to the extreme.

With a loud shout, boundless freezing energy gushed forth from Xiao Lengyue, intending to freeze everything solid. With her in the center, her surroundings all began to freeze as the frost shot upwards and aimed for the heavenly hammer. Not only her, rays of light erupted upwards from the several geniuses around her. They were all unleashing their strongest attacks.

But as that heavenly hammer slammed down, everyone saw a burst of crushing might dominating everything in the area. When one?s attacking power reached a certain limit, it was capable of destroying everything. Furthermore, Qin Wentian?s strike not only contained a tyrannical power, it also contained an incomparably fearsome suppressive might. In fact, there were even columns of holy, pure-white flames circulating around the hammer?it was the epitome of pure destruction.

Zi Daoyang?s countenance stiffened. He rushed out with lightning speed as the numerous violet cauldrons blasted frenziedly outwards, aiming for that descending heavenly hammer. His cauldrons radiated a similar world-shaking force as well.

Xiao Lengyue turned ashen, the heavenly hammer was about to smash into her. But at the last moment, Zi Daoyang?s gigantic cauldrons appeared before her and collided with that terrifying hammer. A heaven-rumbling explosion thundered out, causing everyone?s eardrums to throb painfully. Several glowing lights appeared in the sky, and the impact caused numerous craters to appear in their surroundings. The gigantic cauldrons were destroyed one after another, but they also succeeded in repelling Qin Wentian?s heavenly hammer. Wielding the heavenly hammer, the God?s Hand trembled violently from the impact as its aura fluctuated wildly.

Qing`er?s body flickered, appearing beside Qin Wentian as fearsome spatial energy fluctuations radiated from her.

In fact, within Qing`er?s body, she was suddenly enveloped by a mysterious energy.

“Green-Lotus Sacred Compendium.” Zi Daoyang sensed the might radiating from Qing`er. He then turned to Qing`er and spoke, “Qing`er, given your current state, you have no way to control the power of this secret art. You must endure extreme pain in order to use it once. I have no intentions of fighting you at all, so why must you activate the Green-Lotus Sacred Compendium?”

Qin Wentian?s eyes gleamed with a strange light. He lowered his head and stared at Qing`er. Back when the three of them had joined forces and injured Mo Xie, Qing`er had precisely used this technique that caused that explosive rise in her strength. But according to Zi Daoyang, Qing`er had to first injure herself and endure extreme pain before she could even use this art?

Qing`er could feel Qin Wentian?s gaze on her. She inclined her head and looked straight at him, her eyes incomparably clear as she smiled. “It?s okay.”

“Nanfeng.” Qin Wentian had no idea if Qing`er would admit to being injured, and he involuntarily glanced towards Nanfeng Yunxi.

“The Green-Lotus Sacred Compendium is the secret art of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor. It?s extremely mysterious and it?s rumored that once activated, the user?s strength will explosively increase. But I?ve never heard of any side effects before… after all, only those extremely close to the Evergreen Immortal Emperor would understand this secret art,” Nanfeng Yunxi transmitted her voice over.

“You?re right, Uncle Evergreen is like a brother to my royal father. I naturally understand what sort of secret art the Green-Lotus Sacred Compendium is,” Zi Daoyang clarified. He stared at Qin Wentian, “You are not worthy to make Qing`er battle for you.”

“Qing`er.” A trace of gentleness and warmth flickered in Qin Wentian?s large eyes, but there was also a hint of guilt. Did she really have to go so far?

“I?m really fine.” Qing`er smiled sweetly in response to Qin Wentian?s concerned look. Her gentle eyes were filled with boundless love. Standing beside her, Nanfeng Yunxi felt moved as she witnessed the exchange. She completely didn?t know what stories the daughter of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor had experienced with Qin Wentian before, but the depth of their relationship was truly deep indeed.

“Nanfeng, Qing`er, and Little Rascal. The three of you surround him; I will be the controller for this entire battlefield. There will be no interference from the others.” Qin Wentian stared up at Zi Daoyang as a terrifying coldness erupted from his eyes. His constellation unleashed an overwhelming suppressive might as figures of suppression fell from the sky, shimmering with a boundless light. At the same time, an unfathomably fearsome burst of sword might radiated from Qin Wentian?s left hand as his Sword Slaughter Constellation was unleashed. His left hand shot up towards the sky, and manifested an all-annihilative gigantic sword that could tear everything asunder.

With a heavenly hammer in his right hand, and a gigantic sword in his left, Qin Wentian?s body shimmered with resplendent runic light, a characteristic of his supreme physique. At this moment, Qin Wentian looked like a real battle god, able to commit wholeheartedly to the battlefield. Stepping out, the earth trembled and cracks appeared underneath his feet, spreading out in all directions.

The members of the Violet Sect and the Qin Sect who were currently in combat glanced at Qin Wentian, extreme shock rising up in their hearts. What sort of character was this Qin Wentian exactly? He seemed to have an endless supply of trump cards, and right now, he was like a supreme battle god that looked capable of dominating everything under the heavens. The startling aura gushing forth from him felt like it could sweep over everything unchallenged.

“I shall accompany you in your fight,” Nanfeng Yunxi declared. After which, a reddish glow shot up into the sky as a phantom of an ancient phoenix appeared. An ancient and mysterious aura gushed forth from her body, causing her own aura to intensify endlessly. That reddish glow expanded, blotting out the entire sky, sweeping across the heavens and earth.

Nanfeng Yunxi stepped out, and she stood in the air as her aura continued to rise.

Being ranked third in the Immortal Ascension Rankings, the strength she displayed earlier was far inferior compared to Zi Daoyang, and was somewhat unfitting of her reputation. However, for true members of the Southern Phoenix Clan, they all knew that her earlier performance simply wasn?t Nanfeng Yunxi?s strongest battle state.

The Immortal Ascension Rankings ranked the rankers based on their combat prowess. After exhibiting their tyrannical strength, Qin Wentian and Qing`er were still ranked fourth and fifth, while Nanfeng Yunxi still solidly occupied the third rank. This wasn?t a fluke, but rather, it was a recognition towards Nanfeng Yunxi?s real strength.

?BOOM!? A deafening blast rang out as the entire heavens and earth seemed to undergo a transformation. Nanfeng Yunxi appeared to be in a separate world, filled with brilliant shades of red, while the cries of numerous ancient phoenixes joined together in a cacophony. The sparkling glow circulating around her resembled a phoenix?s armor, causing her to radiate a sense of holiness.

“Nanfeng, you also want to make me your enemy? Going all out to activate your Southern Phoenix Clan?s ultimate art…you?ve even burned the blood of the phoenix to fight against me.” Zi Daoyang?s expression turned heavy, staring at the opponents before him whose strength just kept rising. The ones ranked third, fourth, and fifth; they were in their strongest battle states, and accompanied by a powerful demonic beast?truly it was a terrifying sight to behold. Even the pressure he?d exuded earlier was completely drowned out by them.

Zi Daoyang no longer had absolute confidence that he?d win this battle.

“Originally, it wasn?t a glorious matter to join forces to fight against you. However you, Zi Daoyang, are ranked first in the Immortal Ascension Rankings, and your strength is undoubtedly stronger than mine. If you are willing to retreat, our Qin Sect is willing to offer a ceasefire,” Nanfeng Yunxi proposed. Although she was powerful, she had a magnanimous heart, and was willing to publicly admit her inferiority to Zi Daoyang.

If the two of them fought one-on-one, she would definitely be the loser. However things were different now. Three powerful experts were all in their strongest battle states, and there was no doubt that if they fought, Zi Daoyang would surely be the one defeated!
