Chapter 680 - The Hand that Could Summon the Stars (2/2)
The Demon Lord advised, ”Let's leave and I will bring you to see my ancestor, Great Saint Qushen. If you spend some days learning from him, you will have your chance to defeat these two.”
Yunyang took some time to reply, ”Then, thank you older brother for the trouble.”
During this conversation between Yunyang and the Demon Lord, Shen Lian and Emperor Xia were already battling it out for thousands of rounds. They were merely fighting on an area of a square inch, but they aura and aftershock which was emitted had already demolished the entire capital city of Wangcheng.
Kui Li had also stayed away from the battlefield. The demons of Xia clan never seemed to die and reduce in numbers. They were all in close pursuit of Kui Li. While she had mastered the five colored divine lights, it was still a big challenge to brush all these demons off.
This was the first occasion when Shen Lian was fighting a life-and-death duel with Emperor Xia, the strongest warlord in the Netherworld. Emperor Xia's emperor garment was so ripped; showing his chests full of blood and scars, and his scruffed up hair. Yet, no matter how heavily he received the damage, his fighting spirit never faded and actually got stronger and fiercer.
The demonic seed of the Primeval Demon possessed an unbelievable vitality. Armed with an indestructible body flesh, Emperor Xia could possibly become the second Great Sage, Heaven's Equal.
He laughed hysterically and said, ”If you cannot kill me, I will wear you off till your death.”
Shen Lian remained expressionless. His robe was clean and his spiritual body spotless. He surpassed Emperor Xia so much more in an elegant demeanor. His reply was, ”My techniques were that of Guizang. You better save your arrogance, Emperor Xia.”
His tone was loud and clear. He continued his attacks towards Emperor Xia. This was when the clouds dispersed to show the bright moon and sky full of stars.
Emperor Xia noticed that the stars were unusual.
The boundless stars were shining so brightly, and some were shooting down, turning the area to seen vast and wide.
The stars were not those of the netherworld. They were the everlasting stars of the universe, emitting bright light and discharging limitless energy.
A meteor rain was seen falling from the sky. The asteroids as large as mountains were summoned from the void by Shen Lian, and then turned into rays of light being charged at Emperor Xia.
That was the real power of world destruction, and Shen Lian did not look very composed this time.
A man was riding on the black Qilin, overlooking Diqiu when he saw this scene. He had three eyes. That was Wen Zhong, and he could not help but frown. Wuding's Flying Stars Incantation would not have had such magnitude even if it was being cast at maximum level but this technique from Shen Lian's prohibited Celestial Arts was actually inspired from the Flying Stars Incantation, and it had surpassed the latter.
He was so shocked and wondered what kind of monster this man was. He might even have to forego the thought of avenging his honored master with his lone strength.
The blue sky had already been shattered by the meteor rain. Emperor Xia's spirit was overwhelmed by a large amount of spiritual pressure. This was the first time he felt such immense sense of crisis.
