Chapter 2172 - 723: Provocation of War (Part 2)

Chapter 2172: Chapter 723: Provocation of War (Part 2)

Chu Xisheng smiled slightly at the words, his hand resting on the long blade, continuing to gaze at the sixth layer of Buzhou Mountain: "In the past, Emperor Xuanhuang was infected by the Heavenly Gaze because the true forms of the Ice God and Thunder God descended to the Mortal World, and were jointly besieged by Ziwei, Gouchen, and others."

Shen Shaomiao seemed to have an epiphany.

If it weren’t for Emperor Xuanhuang being bitten and unable to draw strength to suppress the Corpse Poison, how could this second-generation Saint Emperor, whose power was already on par with the Ancestor Gods, be infected to the point of not being able to drive out the poison?

Therefore, she no longer hesitated, unfurling a pair of golden wings behind her, transforming directly into a ray of golden light, soaring into the air: "Take care of yourself."

Shen Shaomiao used the Divine Crow Gu, a Gu Insect she cultivated single-handedly, inspired by the Great Sun Golden Crow, allowing her to use Light Escape, possessing travel speed comparable to the Great Sun Golden Crow.

The power to activate the Divine Crow Gu came from the ’Divine Essence Gu’ she implanted in the Jiuli Tribe people.

This ’Divine Essence Gu’ is usually harmless and can even help those implanted with it in the Jiuli Tribe to practice Martial Arts and strengthen their bodies.

But if Shen Shaomiao encounters a powerful enemy, she can extract strength from the ’Divine Essence Gu’, substituting it for Heaven and Earth Primordial Power.

She used this method to avoid the nine-layered Cloud Sky, enabling her true form to walk in the Mortal World, never worrying about Source Addiction.

Just as Shen Shaomiao fled fifty thousand miles away, she felt from the direction of Buzhou Mountain, an incredibly dominant and vast Sword Intent rushing into the sky, completely breaking open the Nine Heavens Cloud layers over there.

Shen Shaomiao, through the Gu Insects she left behind, heard Chu Xisheng’s cold voice.

"Shen Tianjing, I heard today you lead the All Gods with true forms descending to the Lower Realm, stationed inside Buzhou Mountain, I am here to sincerely invite you to battle!"

Shen Shaomiao knew that ’Shen Tianjing’ was the real name of Gouchen Star Monarch before becoming ’Gouchen’.

Chu Xisheng directly calling him by name showed his rejection of the other’s identity as Gouchen Star Monarch.

※※※※

"Boom!"

A thunderous roar erupted from within the ’Temple of Ten Thousand Gods’ on the sixth layer of Buzhou Mountain.

This place was swept by an incomparably powerful and vast, fierce and dominant Sword Intent, crushing and annihilating everything in its path!

Not only did this grand temple collapse, but many giant spirit maids and guards inside were crushed into pulp.

Even the newly appointed Southern Heavenly Emperor of Buzhou Mountain was bleeding from every pore, kneeling on the ground, appearing miserable.

Chu Xisheng had his Sword Intent locked on Gouchen Star Monarch, yet even those just grazed by the residual waves were nearly shattered by Chu Xisheng’s Divine Intent Saber.

"Damn it!"

Wenqu Star Monarch waved his large sleeve, and instantly countless bamboo slips and scrolls surged out from his sleeve, encircling him like moats.

Every character on those bamboo slips released potent power, resisting Chu Xisheng’s incredibly mighty Divine Intent Saber.

Yet, this was Buzhou Mountain!

The gathered Sword Intent of Chu Xisheng far exceeded the tolerance capacity of Wenqu Star Monarch.

In just an instant, Wenqu Star Monarch was bleeding from his nose and mouth, and various scrolls he carried showed slight cracks.

Wenqu Star Monarch’s face looked extremely unpleasant.

During the time of the first-generation Wenqu Star Monarch, when the Sixth Generation Emperor Canghuang was still alive, the power of words and Word Spirit was extremely strong and was one of the deepest Heavenly Rules at the Fifth Layer.

Back then in the Mortal World, there were schools named Confucian, Legalist, Taoist, Mohist, Soldier, Miscellaneous, Farmer, etc., spreading among the populace, creating numerous classics that could be passed down for tens of millions of years.

However, after the All Gods annihilated the Human Race Heavenly Court, to prevent the return of Emperor Canghuang’s power, they destroyed all these classics, greatly weakening the power of words and Word Spirit, reducing it to the outer rim of the Fourth Layer.

Thus, under Chu Xisheng’s Sword Intent, Wenqu Star Monarch, as a Quasi Emperor, performed extremely poorly.

Gouchen Star Monarch, however, focused on the throne, unwavering.

He looked coldly at Chu Xisheng beneath the mountain, his gaze as cold as ice.

The Divine Intent Saber from Chu Xisheng, surprisingly, couldn’t move a single piece of his clothing.

Tan Lang stood up.

His already burly figure swelled slightly under the Sword Intent impact.

Not only was he a Saint of the Greed Heaven Technique, but also the second True Spirit of the Swallowing Heaven Technique, possessing the power to devour the heavens and earth.

Although Chu Xisheng’s Divine Intent Saber was incredibly powerful, it still could not surpass the limits of his Heavenly Rules Power.

Seven Killings Star Lord annihilated, slaughtered, and extinguished all Sword Intent rushing toward him!

He too gazed at Chu Xisheng beneath the mountain, looking at the scoundrel who once made him return defeated from the Mortal World, the seven swords behind him rising with sharp and exceptional Sword Qi.

—This bastard has actually directly attacked beneath the Buzhou Mountain they guarded!

However, among the All Gods, the first to counterattack was Chantian Star Lord.

He instantly manifested the body of the Six-winged Golden Cicada, then turned into a dazzling golden light, rushing down the mountain.

This Saint, known for Divine Speed and the cutting technique, the second True Spirit of the Ten Thousand Tremor Technique, appeared before Chu Xisheng in just a flash.

His speed was faster than electrics, varying unpredictably, yet Chu Xisheng’s Divine Intent Saber couldn’t lock onto his true form several times.

Instead, it was Chantian Star Lord’s six-wing cicada blades that shattered Chu Xisheng’s outer layer Divine Gang.

However, the avatar of golden light then collided against Chu Xisheng’s Eternal Wall, creating a thunderous roar.

After being reinforced by the Twelve Dragon God Heavenly Guardians, even Chantian Star Lord’s Six-winged Shocking Saber and cutting power could not shatter it, his entire head nearly flattened.

"A fine Six-winged Golden Cicada indeed!"

Chu Xisheng casually pulled out the ’Heavenly Heart Extermination Mysterious Blade’, countless Silver Mirror Blade Gang sprang up around his body: "Pity you haven’t become an Emperor, your Innate Divine Body is too weak, ultimately just a grain of rice glimmer!"

At this moment, numerous incomparably sharp Sword Qi were generated in the void, pursuing and chasing the Six-winged Golden Cicada, forcing this Innate Divine Worm to continuously retreat and dodge, moving further away from Chu Xisheng.

Some of those Sword Qi were self-launched, and some were Chu Xisheng’s Ruyi Zhuntian Blade cuts, all extremely perilous.

Though the Six-winged Golden Cicada possessed strong combat power, it was notoriously strong offensively but weak defensively, not daring to endure even a single hit among them.

Moreover, he felt that any sword skills he possessed were subtly countered by the opponent.

The opponent possessed and mastered the foundation of Sword Tao, altering the profound meaning of the Sword Tao! It made the Six-winged Golden Cicada’s Six-winged Cicada Blade incompatible with this world.

Chu Xisheng’s Divine Intent was continuously focused on Gouchen Star Monarch, never shifting an inch.

His eyes revealed a mocking smile: "Shen Tianjing, you descend to the Mortal World, isn’t it to take my life? Now I am here, why do you not dare to appear, is it because you lack the courage to battle?"

While speaking, Chu Xisheng beckoned to the mountain.

The Divine Contract Stele behind him simultaneously emitted grand golden brilliance.

He surprisingly borrowed the ’Sky Shifting Technique’ from Gouchen Star Monarch.

This person was able to sit steadily within the Temple of Ten Thousand Gods, unmoving, by using the ’Sky Shifting Technique’ to move stars and alter constellations, diverting away Chu Xisheng’s lashing Divine Intent Saber.

Yet at this moment, when Gouchen’s Sky Shifting Power was forcibly borrowed by Chu Xisheng, the ground below his throne instantly cracked inch by inch, sinking three feet.

Gouchen’s face was still icy, remaining motionless.

He still diverted away more than half of Chu Xisheng’s Divine Intent Saber power.

Although Gouchen Star Monarch had his ’Sky Shifting Technique’ borrowed, he still possessed the ’Void Skill’.

The essence of Sky Shifting still lies in the Void, in the Stellar.

Although Gouchen Star Monarch had his Heavenly Rules Power borrowed, his understanding of Heavenly Rules’ essence remained. He could still transfer Chu Xisheng’s power through the Void Technique.

Yet the next instant, Gouchen found that even his Void Skill could no longer be utilized.

Chu Xisheng’s Divine Contract Stele had already taken this second Heavenly Rule from him.

Boom!

With this roar, Gouchen Star Monarch not only sank a further three feet in body, but fresh blood also oozed from the corner of his lips.

Seated quietly next to him, equally unmoving, Star Lord Heavenly Stove, couldn’t help but sigh: "Gouchen Your Majesty, this place is unfavorable for us, perhaps it’s better to retreat to thirty miles away over the sea, to choose another open space to spar further."

Near Buzhou Mountain, the Fourth Generation Saint Emperor could easily gather the Divine Intent Sword Power to rival the Ancestor Gods.
