Chapter 414: Chapter 405: The Human World, Sullied Again

"Die!"

The Seventh Prince roared in fury and lunged toward Ling He.

With a low RUMBLE, an earthy-yellow mist boiled up. His palm, like a mountain range falling from the sky, expanded rapidly, blotting out the heavens. Within the haze, the faint image of a Bian charged forth.

This was his Lifebound Skill. It was derived from his Dharma Aspect, undergoing a further evolution as it erupted from within the mist. Its light surged to the heavens, swallowing the world.

The Bian was enormous and terrifyingly divine, towering like a mountain. It had the body of a tiger but with dragon horns, was covered in golden dragon scales, and radiated a horrifying aura.

"ROAR—" Ling He bellowed, the precious bottle in his hand glowing brilliantly.

A vast, azure ocean surged from his body, transforming into a massive seal as tall as a hill. It rushed toward the Bian, and the two clashed fiercely.

Endless gales and waves rippled out from between them, scouring the landscape and making the very void tremble.

The many soldiers were all utterly shocked.

Only a young Great Saint could fight another young Great Saint.

Right now, the two were locked in a ferocious battle like primordial beasts. Their every move carried the power to tear apart the universe and shatter mountains and rivers, striking terror into the hearts of all who watched.

Anyone imagining themselves on that battlefield knew that they wouldn’t be able to withstand even a wisp of the residual energy. They would be reduced to a bloody mist, their Dao extinguished and their body destroyed.

At that moment, Xiao Sanxuan, Zhong Zunyang, and the other beings also charged forward, burning with power, their divine might soaring.

The death of Qi Xuanxian had been a rude awakening.

This was a battlefield. One moment of carelessness, and even a young Great Saint who dominated their domain could fall!

"Kill!" Zhong Zunyang’s gaze was icy, his entire body shining brilliantly.

His original body was a mountain, not a Human Race Cultivator.

As he unleashed his Magic, dense mountain-like patterns appeared on his skin. He looked like an azure Divine Mountain, his body wreathed in terrifying runes that burned like fire, giving off an impression of unparalleled power.

With a shake of his arms, his aura changed drastically. A boundless azure wave of energy surged forth, and an Eternal Green Mountain descended from above his head. The series of explosions it caused made countless faces pale in horror.

A killing move like this was likely powerful enough to touch upon the realm of a Saint.

Opposite him was Xiao Sanxuan.

Xiao Sanxuan was extraordinarily handsome and martial. His body was veiled in a divine radiance, and he wore a suit of heavy, black-gold armor, attended by various Anomalous Flames.

He was like a divine general of flames being born into the world. Even if he just stood still, his presence alone was enough to cause a drought for three thousand li and prevent rain or fog for a hundred years.

With a BOOM, five Grotto Heavens materialized around him, churning with lava and blazing with divine fire.

Within each Grotto Heaven sat a Flame Spirit, commanding nine types of special Anomalous Flames.

Vermilion Bird! Fire Dragon! Bifang! Huodou! Fire Qilin!

This was the manifestation of his Lifebound Skill, and it was the foundation of his third-rank status in the Ten Thousand Flames Hall.

In terms of Fire Skills alone, he was nearly unrivaled among his peers.

If this weren’t the case, the Great Sun Dragon Lady would not have considered him the best person to counter Fang Yang’s Fire Skills.

Now, he had completely erupted. Like a Fire God descending, he brought endless fire and heat to the mortal world.

Under the watchful eyes of the masses.

The five Flame Grotto Heavens burned freely, surging with divine light and brilliant, auspicious clouds.

Following his will, the five Flame Grotto Heavens transformed into the Vermilion Bird, Bifang, and other Flame Spirits, then charged the protective grand array.

RUMBLE...

Incredibly, the protective grand array was trembling, and parts of it were even showing signs of melting!

"Heavens, what kind of monster is that?"

"The Ten Thousand Flames Hall... Don’t tell me Xiao Sanxuan managed to comprehend the *Ten Thousand Flames Ancient Scripture* and forge his own path?!"

*Hiss...*

"Don’t panic! Don’t panic! Trust the commander!"

Inside the protective grand array, the soldiers from the Golden Clan and the Daoist Mansion of Eternal Life all watched Xiao Sanxuan with reverence, vaguely seeing him as a Flame Deity incarnate.

Grandmaster!

Xiao Sanxuan’s attainments in the Fire Dao School were, at minimum, at the Grandmaster Level.

They wouldn’t even have doubted it if someone said his mastery in the Fire Dao School was that of a quasi-Grandmaster.

After all, such power to break an array was far too terrifying!

At this very moment, the sudden eruption of power from young Great Saints like the Seventh Prince, Zhong Zunyang, and Xiao Sanxuan put Jiuming, Ling He, and their allies under immense pressure.

...

"Insolent!" Ling He’s gaze was frigid. He thrust a fist toward the sky, and his precious bottle roared without end.

In an instant, a colossal Xuanwu rose from the azure river and charged toward Xiao Sanxuan.

A majestic water mist moved with it, filling the sky. Runes glittered within, and upon closer inspection, one could see that this mist was composed entirely of Ten Thousand Jins Heavy Water.

Ten Thousand Jins Heavy Water. A single drop weighed ten thousand jins and was reputed to be able to break all forms of magic.

Although it wasn’t one of the ten great divine waters, it was still a divine water of the highest caliber.

This move immediately intercepted the Vermilion Bird, Bifang, and other beasts, preventing them from posing any further threat to the protective grand array.

"You dare get distracted while fighting me?!" The Seventh Prince’s face was as savage as a demon’s. He was about to tear through the void to appear before Ling He and crush him with a single palm strike.

"Hmph." Jiuming swung his sword again. The Celestial Sword swept out, unleashing a blood-red light that had been pushed to its absolute limit.

Perhaps because it had drunk its fill of Qi Xuanxian’s blood, when the Celestial Sword fell, it was as if a god or demon was striking. A roaring wind erupted as a majestic, colored light shot to the sky, and a violent astral wind stirred.

Wisps of this astral wind actually transformed into Flood Dragons made of white vapor, which swooped down, brimming with killing intent.

"Ah..." Seeing Jiuming appear, flames erupted from the Seventh Prince’s eyes.

While Qi Xuanxian hadn’t been his closest friend, during their time together, he had come to accept and greatly admire him.

Not to mention, the Primordial Ancestor, the Great Sun Dragon Lady, had repeatedly instructed him to look after Qi Xuanxian if he had the strength to spare.
