Each of Hoult’s words was like a big vat smashing down onto the ground, and all the spectators in the battle coliseum could hear them clearly.

Then, the palm smashed down.

The giant palm, formed from the myriad stars, was the size of half the arena. Each finger had been created with great detail and a life-like feeling, as though it really was a hand belonging to some giant.

However, this was not just in appearance. Such details displayed Hoult’s mastery in the Astral Tempest. Every single star was within his control, and each minute strand of force was within his grasp.

Therefore, he was able to explode all of his force within that instant, slamming down such a terrify attack.

If it were said that what Hoult had displayed earlier was his technique and experience, then this palm attack displayed fully his overwhelming powers, which would allow him to be amongst the best Knights.

Pure and blatant strength pressed down, and the exploding waves of air currents released explosive booms, as though all the air had been compressed together forcefully and then pushed out. Wei Leng even felt as though he was suffocating, like he could not breathe.

Hoult’s palm attack made it seem like the whole world had collapsed. The explosive pressure from the air currents gave Wei Leng no chance of escaping. So, all he could do was block.

In that instant, Wei Leng let out a furious bellow and finally displayed the powers he had been holding back.

A hint of starlight came out from the tip of his sword, as though a bright guiding star had appeared in the endless darkness.

This was the new Killing technique he had gained after comprehending the third level of the Pantheon Monument—Guiding Star in Darkness.

The Melancholic Monarch had created this Killing technique in order to restore the starry sky.

That was true. Back then, in order to attain a breakthrough after the Divine level, the Melancholic Monarch had the thought of creating an artificial star system to recreate the starry sky.

The Guiding Star in Darkness was a Killing technique he had created in order to shoot the stars up into the sky.

How powerful and terrifying was the power which was required for sending artificial stars from the ground up high into the sky? This showed just how ferocious a power was held in the move, the Guiding Star in Darkness.

Based on the foundation of exchanging information with ether particles, he had progressed further to the exchange of energy, creating a series of reactions with explosive powers. It was an extremely brutal power.

If it was said that Hoult’s palm attack could cause the world to turn into a state of chaos as though the skies had collapsed… then Wei Leng’s Guiding Star in Darkness was a hint of light shining out from the darkness, attempting to pierce through skies and escape out of this world.

Both techniques were extremely violent. That moment when the tip of the sword met with the giant palm, the whole world seemed to quiet down for just a second.

As Wei Leng’s body flew out, Wei Leng felt as though his entire body had gone out of control. He felt as though the entire universe had been torn apart and his soul had flown out of this world.

It was as though Hoult’s palm had sent his soul flying.

Wei Leng’s feet stomped down continuously as he tried to stop his body. However, aside from creating a series of cavities in the ground with consecutive banging sounds and sending large pieces of rocks flying, there were no other effects. Wei Leng was soon pushed out of the arena.
