Chapter 744 - Archaic and Modern Showdown (2/2)
“If he could not defeat Ye Xiao, then Ye Xiao is not a human, but a god!
“Thus, as everyone knows, Ye Xiao is not a god!”
After saying that, the vast majority of people present raised their hands in agreement.
“I agree with this statement.”
“Right! I agree too.”
“Although Ye Xiao helped us previously, I don’t want to spout nonsense without any basis!
“Although Ye Xiao’s cultivation was very strong and his aptitude was extremely monstrous, one had to know that the cultivation civilization of this world was still far from what it was a long time ago!
“Therefore, even if he was very strong, there was still a huge gap between him and the peak geniuses of the immemorial era.
“Fate is playing tricks on people. Ye Xiao has always thought that he was the strongest. Now, he finally met his match, right?”
Of course, there was naturally a portion of people in the crowd who chose to support Ye Xiao.
“You guys, could it be that you’re ungrateful people? Don’t forget, if it wasn’t for Ye Xiao, we might not even have entered until now. How can you say that?”
“You’re right. Ye Xiao hasn’t even made a move yet, so he might not be inferior to others.
“He has the legendary pure True Immortal bloodline. This bloodline is hard to come by throughout history and is extremely hard to come by! If he has this, he might not lose to others!”
The people spoke one after another, speaking one after another.
Above their heads, the two Sacred Sovereigns with eight apertures, were facing each other from afar, but they had yet to open their mouths to speak.
Their strength was extraordinary, and their auras were extraordinary as well.
They did not even need to open their mouths. Just by looking at each other, they could see the other party’s intentions.
At that moment, the two of them had already been fighting in the dark countless times!
Their auras also became two complete domains within the archaic ruins. They were facing each other from afar, colliding with each other and resisting each other. No one was willing to take even half a step back.
Finally, Sacred Sovereign Shang spoke first.
“There were once many people like you. They were freakishly talented and could cross ranks to kill enemies! Do you know what they became in the end?”
“I don’t know, and I don’t want to know.”
Ye Xiao indifferently spat out a sentence in reply.
Actually, he knew that it was nothing more than a scare tactic.
Perhaps those people had already been killed by him.
Despite that, so what?
He would definitely not go along with what he said. Wanting to use him to show off was absolutely impossible.
Ye Xiao would not give the other party a chance.
Sacred Sovereign Shang seemed to have already guessed that there would be such a reaction. Hence, towards Ye Xiao’s retort, he was not the least bit angry. He only said indifferently,
“If you refuse a toast, you’ll be forced to drink it. Looks like there’s no need to waste my breath on you.”
A strange fluctuation was suddenly transmitted from the air. It was Sacred Sovereign Shang adjusting his own aura.
When everyone felt that scene, they could not help but feel their blood boil.
“It’s about to begin. It’s finally about to begin! Sacred Sovereign Shang has already begun to release his own aura to attack and break the balance. The great battle has begun. I can finally feast my eyes on it.”
The various cultivators watching the battle could not help but become excited. Some of their eyes even shone, and they looked like they had lost the demeanor of a cultivator.
It was very difficult for others to understand their feelings.
However, in reality, for cultivators at their level, if they were able to see a battle between unrivaled cultivators, they might be even happier than if their cultivation base had increased by quite a bit.
That was because a battle between high-level cultivators could often allow one to absorb a large amount of experience.
Some rare experiences were not even inferior to top-grade natural treasures. They could allow them to leap over a level that they would find difficult to leap over in their entire lives.
Faced with Sacred Sovereign Shang’s actions, Ye Xiao naturally would not sit idly by.
He snorted lightly. The aura and energy within his body erupted at the same time.
Boom!
The two supreme energy domains collided, and the entire spatial barrier was mercilessly torn apart into a huge horizontal plane. It looked like a huge gully.
One of them, a Sacred Sovereign with one aperture happened to be standing right in the middle of the two’s attack. In the end, he was accidentally blasted into a pile of ashes on the spot, and even his primordial soul was destroyed without a trace. It was completely annihilated, making it impossible for him to be resurrected.
When everyone saw that scene, their hearts felt as if they were tightly gripped by a huge hand. It was difficult for them to say a single word.
The battle between the Sacred Sovereign with eight apertures had actually reached such a terrifying level.
That was only the beginning of the battle. It had not reached the climax of the battle at all. At most, it could only be considered as a warm-up before the big battle.
However, it was the warm-up before the big battle that was so destructive that the Sacred Sovereign could not even stand in it.
At that moment, everyone suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness!
That powerless feeling that was as small as an ant broke their hearts!
The scene was deathly silent. Some people moved their lips, but in the end, they still did not say anything.
Perhaps it was because they did not want to be destroyed by that unprecedented battle!
Maybe their bodies were already in a state of extreme fear, so they could not say a word.
The battle continued. In the next moment, Sacred Sovereign Shang mobilized even more energy and gave up on full-scale defense. He directly pierced Ye Xiao’s domain. The energy was like a long spear, charging straight at Ye Xiao’s chest.
Ye Xiao was also unhurried. With a slight movement of his eyes, multiple sword rays were released from his domain, destroying the attack while leaving nothing behind.
After shattering his attack with one move, Sacred Sovereign Shang did not show any signs of appeasement. He released a second move. At that time, it was a horizontal slash sword ray that contained at least three sacred arts. The power of the laws was so endless that it was so powerful that it was simply unimaginable.
Ye Xiao narrowed his eyes. That was also the first time he had seen such a strange move.
The sacred art that Sacred Sovereign Shang cultivated was far inferior to his own.
Ignoring the Void celestial art, just the Destiny sacred art and the Primordial Chaos sacred art were existences that he could see but could not touch.
If it was just an ordinary sacred art, the explosive power that he controlled would not be able to shatter Ye Xiao’s defense.
In order to break Ye Xiao’s defense, he actually gathered the three sacred arts together. It was as if they had been twisted into a rope, making it more offensive and more resilient.
That allowed it to withstand Ye Xiao’s sacred art’s power head-on.
The reason why Ye Xiao was concerned was that even he had never used Sacred Sovereign Shang’s method before.
That was not the type of method to display one move and then display another move, stacking attacks and increasing the support effects.
That was the type of person who would use three immemorial sacred arts at the same time and then merge the three together to form a brand new sacred art.
At that instant, that brand new sacred art of his was an existence that transcended realms.
That move was very beautiful. Ordinary people would not be able to do it.
At the very least, Ye Xiao had never thought of or done that before!
