Chapter 632: Snuffed OutTranslator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma Translations

The power that the Astral Ancestor demonstrated at right then distorted the space directly. As he grabbed out, the space and atmosphere twisted, and there were glimmering lights in his palm. It was as if the entire world was being shattered.

The Lonestar Knight and the other two Demigods had joined forces to produce a power that could even shake the entire Xingwang Mountain. However, it was still insufficient to distort space.

Yet, the Astral Ancestor was able to distort space with a casual strike from his palm. However, he then condensed the power through the space distortions, directing them all toward Fang Xingjian.

Through this one attack, Fang Xingjian understood that something had gone wrong with the Astral Ancestor’s memories, turning him into an idiot. However, there were no problems with his martial arts cultivation. The way he distorted space and condensed his power was about the same as how the Blue Sacred Moonlight had done it. In fact, it could even be stronger.

However, faced with the great pressure from the Astral Ancestor, Fang Xingjian remained unfazed, not backing off at all. He struck out with his palm toward the Astral Ancestor’s palm with a great force that could hold up the sky. The violent power also distorted space, bring about layers and layers of ripples, clashing into the Astral Ancestor’s hand.

Bang! There seemed to be the roaring of a myriad of thunder claps in void space, and the Lonestar Knight and his two juniors turned pale. Their eyes, ears, mouths, and noses had started to bleed due to the tremors, and they retreated rapidly.

Even Lan Yue’s body was shaken. Although she did not back off, her face had turned a little pale as well.

The two palms separated upon contact. Fang Xingjian let out a stifled grunt and retreated three steps back. The space around him trembled furiously, distorting into small and broken waves before he came to a stop.

‘Oh? The strength of this old man’s martial will is very powerful. So, this is the Astral Spiritual Physique? As expected of a technique that dominates with power.’

As Fang Xingjian sensed the power struck out that the Astral Ancestor with, a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

Watching this scene in which Fang Xingjian was pushed back, the eyes of the Lonestar Knight and his two martial juniors lit up with excitement. It could be said that with these three steps Fang Xingjian retreated, this was the first time he had been in a disadvantageous position ever since he came up the mountain.

‘There’s hope. There’s really hope,’ The Lonestar Knight thought. ‘Master’s cultivation really hasn’t retreated but has progressed instead. He might really be able to suppress Fang Xingjian completely.’

The Stardust Fairy and Starbeast Hunter also displayed hints of joyful expressions. ‘Could it be that Master has succeeded in attaining the third tier of the Divine level? If that’s the case, then he’ll definitely be able to suppress Fang Xingjian.’

The pressure that Fang Xingjian gave the three of them was far too great. He was so powerful that they were unable to resist at all. Right now, just seeing Fang Xingjian reveal a hint of being in a disadvantaged position gave them endless hope.

Lan Yue, who was at the side, also frowned slightly as she thought, ‘It seems that even though the Astral Ancestor’s memories are in a mess, he hasn’t lost his martial art instincts. It could even be that with him fully focused on cultivating martial arts, he has become even stronger instead.

‘Fang Xingjian is still too rash. After all, the Astral Ancestor is someone who tried for the third tier of the Divine level. Even if he became a fool, he is still not to be underestimated.’

Thinking of this, schemes flashed through her eyes, and she even started to think about a problem.

‘If the Astral Ancestor really suppresses Fang Xingjian, then do I take action? Who do I take action against? Fang Xingjian…?’ A great impulse slowly gushed up in her heart.

Just as the four of them who were at the side each had different thoughts running through their minds, the Astral Ancestor turned his head completely. The starlight in his eyes was now flashing even more brilliantly.

“Hmmm? There seems to be the Prodigious Demolition Sword Physique… the Rebirth Sword Technique… the White Bone Sword Physique? There are also hints of a few other light swords. What an attack to have so many sword techniques incorporated into it…” The Astral Ancestor did not move his mouth and just mumbled through his martial will like a puppet. “What great sword arts. Amongst all the swordsmen in the world, you can be ranked in the top five. Take this Astral River Smash from me.”

He then stood up abruptly, placing his two hands together and raising them high up as endless streams of strong forces exuded from his body. The void space in the surroundings started to flash in the starlight. At this moment, the Astral Ancestor himself seemed to have turned into a star, exuding endless gravitational waves and causing the space within several tens of meters around him to distort.
