Paradise of Demonic Gods
chapter-1035

The Crown Princess only glared at him, and the martial will in her body seethed increasingly intensely like a huge dragon that was about to awaken.

Xiao Shen appeared as if he had not sensed anything. As he looked at the Crown Princess' beautiful face, his eyes shone with endless admiration as well as... a blatant desire to possess her.

It was not as if there were no beautiful women around him, but this was the first time Xiao Shen had come across one who was both beautiful and strong like the Crown Princess. This made a feeling of love and admiration that he had never felt before gush out from his heart.

Unable to hold back, he raised his hand toward her face to stroke it.

However, before he could get close, he was stopped by an invisible force.

Xiao Shen smiled. "You're really wary."

It turned out that the Crown Princess had encompassed the entire surface of her body with her martial will. Even if her powers became motionless, they were still like thick defensive layers that protected her, making it hard for Xiao Shen to get close.

Xiao Shen shook his head. "Unless you're a heaven-blessed cultivator, you won't be able to break the confinement that is applied on you right now. Even if you're 1,000 or 10,000 times stronger than I am, it'd be useless. This is a difference in realm. Give up."

The Crown Princess did not say a word, but the extent of her struggles within the spatial fragments became increasingly stronger. It was as if her martial will had turned into astonishing waves. As they fluctuated, they seemed to want to wipe out the many spatial fragments completely.

A hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Shen's eyes. "What strong powers."

"But it is still useless," he said, shaking his head. Then he continued, "With our talents, there's no one who can win against us. What is the point of obtaining the world? Don't you think that pursuit of the profoundness in the human body, the probing of the vastness of the universe, and the experiencing of the great harmony in life should be the real pursuits?

"If Sister Fairy is willing to give up on the imperial court, I'm willing to stay by your side and have exchanges of our martials arts in pursuit of that vast and boundless heavenly dao. We can forget about all the disputes in the secular world and become a couple that's envied by all."

Xiao Shen's gaze was sincere and earnest. His gaze seemed to be filled with endless admiration as he looked at the Crown Princess. It was as if he was looking at the most exquisite piece of art in the world.

The Crown Princess' eyes seemed to be smirking as she looked into his eyes. The fury in the depths of her eyes grew increasingly intense.

The thing the Crown Princess detested the most was to be teased by men, let alone when it was an immature brat like Xiao Shen.

She said coldly, "In a while, I'll let you have a good experience of just what the great harmony of life is."

Xiao Shen shook his head and was about to continue persuading her when his countenance changed drastically.

"This isn't right. You've been struck by the Sword 23. How is it that you're still able to talk?"

At the next moment, the Crown Princess' body trembled, and streams of golden light rose from her body. It was as if the entire world had started to tremble together with her.

This was not an ordinary earthquake or typhoon. The space within a range of 100 lis had become one entity and was tremoring together.

Streams of golden light pierced through the sky, as if wanting to pierce through the entire world.

Once Xiao Shen's Sword 23 was performed, all of the space would be able to confine his enemies under the control of his thoughts.

Before this attack, even Tiangang Realm experts would be like flies or mosquitoes, being easily crushed by him.

However, the Crown Princess—who was being restrained now—did not appear to be like flies or mosquitoes at all. Xiao Shen felt as if the person he was confining was like the world-creating giant mentioned in legends.

"Ahhh!"

Enraged bellows were released from the Crown Princess's body, and piercing golden burst out from her eyes and mouths. The atmosphere trembled and exploded. The world shook, and tornadoes blew out in all directions from her body. Crisp pitter patter sounds rang out from the many spatial fragments.

"What kind of joke is this?" Xiao Shen looked at this scene in astonishment. The Crown Princess' powers had reached a deep and bottomless level, surpassing that of any experts he had encountered before. He even had the suspicion that even experts at the Great Dao Realm would not be able to reach this level in their powers.

Violent powers kept being released incessantly from the Crown Princess' body. Even the space in the world was being pushed back endlessly. Each spatial fragment seemed to have been crushed and then pressed together by her once again. It was like piecing together the space that was split apart once again, allowing her to recover her mobility.

The Crown Princess' entire body was encompassed by golden flames, and a suffocating pressure was sent out from her body, knocking out the 5,000-man army in the surroundings.

A seemingly material fury kept on burning in her eyes as she looked at Xiao Shen.

"How do you wish to die?"

Xiao Shen's countenance turned pale as he looked at the Crown Princess like he had just seen a ghost.

'How is that possible? Other than heaven-blessed cultivators, how can anyone else be able to break out of this confinement?'

Under this extremely focused mental state, the time in the surroundings seemed to have slowed down for Xiao Shen. However, he could faintly see that the Crown Princess's right hand seemed to have moved a little, yet it also seemed like it had not moved at all.

At the next moment, a stream of golden light erupted, and the Royal Heavenly Great Palm Imprint slapped out. Violent powers instantly encompassed the area within 100 lis.

Having struck out in fury, the Crown Princess' powers truly erupted. The ground within a range of 100 lis sank in instantly, collapsing and turning into a huge palm print.

The Qing City's city walls in the distance collapsed, and the atmosphere produced countless strong gales that swept out, causing sand and rock to fly everywhere in the sky.

However, this was merely from the weakest repercussive waves from her powers.

Being at the point of the Crown Princess' attacking target, Xiao Shen's figure had already turned into nothingness. The space was like a net. It was extremely compressed by this attack, mixing together with light and shadow as it turned into a state of chaos.

With just one move, Xiao Shen seemed to have been crushed into nothingness.

...

Several thousand meters away, Xiao Shen turned into a bolt of lightning that cut across the sky. His countenance had turned extremely pale, and his mind was in a blank state. The Crown Princess' earlier palm attack was the only thing that kept replaying in his mind.

'Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!

'There's really someone who can become this powerful?

'To think that she really neutralized the Sword 23 with brute force?

'If it wasn't because I know how to use the Seven Privation Extremities, I would really have died just then.'

At this moment, Xiao Shen came to a deep realization that the opponent he was facing was a monster who exceeded the norms. She was a monster whose strength had broken through the levels of another dimension.

'An opponent like this is no longer one that I can handle.

'I must look for other people.'

Just as Xiao Shen was fleeing frantically, the Crown Princess threw a faint glance at the tents in the surroundings. She left behind a clone that had 10% of her powers, while the remaining 90% of her powers darted out fiercely, shooting into the sky.

The golden light in her eyes erupted, seeming to scan through the entire world. Simultaneously, her Sudden Inspiration activated at full power.

"Are you able to escape?"

At the instant the Crown Princess activated her Sudden Inspiration, Xiao Shen—who was in the distance—felt as if he had been struck by lightning. At this moment, he had the feeling that even though the world was big, there was nowhere for him to hide.

He had no idea how the Crown Princess had managed to locate him, how she would attack him, or when the attacks would be coming for him. However, the alarm in his heart palpitated crazily. It was as if the entire world was telling him and warning him that he was about to die.

Under this extreme sense of danger and under the Crown Princess's overwhelming pressure, his speed continued to accelerate, becoming faster, and faster, and faster.

At the very end, it was as if he had broken through some kind of limit. A feeling of comprehension suddenly appeared in Xiao Shen's heart. It was a comprehension toward space-time, the world, and nature.

Under the strong pressure of layers of threat, he managed to make the breakthrough he had dreamed of.

"Haha, I knew it. I'm a heaven-blessed cultivator, a person destined by fate. I won't die!"

With a soft bellow, Xiao Shen struck out a punch, and a mysterious change appeared as the void space before his eyes opened up a path like subjects who meeting the Emperor.

The space was like wallpaper that had peeled off, shattering and falling off incessantly until a stretch of pitch-black emptiness appeared before him.

This was a punch that shattered void space.

Xiao Shen's body darted out, stepped into the shattered void space, and disappeared.

Almost at the instant Xiao Shen disappeared, an extremely domineering palm force arrived from across space.

A great and terrifying explosion erupted in the sky. It produced a golden light so brilliant that even those in the Divine Capital could see it. Countless mountain ranges collapsed, and trees were blown into the sky by the violent wind.

The Crown Princess threw a glance at the void space before her and activated her Sudden Inspiration once again.

However, this time around, she could no longer sense his existence.

"Damn it." The Crown Princess' eyes narrowed, and the fury in her eyes continued to burn. Given how respectable her identity was, how could she possibly tolerate being teased by a brat?

At the thought of the word 'brat', the Crown Princess could not help but think of Fang Xingjian.

Thinking of Fang Xingjian, the fury in her heart burned even stronger.

'This is infuriating.'

She was unable to beat Fang Xingjian, and that man from earlier managed to escape.

The Crown Princess needed a place to vent her fury.

Some women liked to shop when they were angry, other women liked to eat delicacies when they were angry, and some other women liked to watch television shows when they were angry.

Clearly, the Crown Princess was not an ordinary woman. When she was angry, she felt like killing people.

A golden light flashed, and she disappeared from midair.

Right now, within Qing City, the prowess from the exchange between the Crown Princess and Xiao Shen had shocked the several million people across the entire city.

Prince Xin looked at the Imperial Guards' campsite that had stirred up into chaos and shouted in shock, "Was Young Hero Xiao successful?"

He then looked at the Qing City's terrain around him that had changed drastically. The shock in his eyes deepened.

'These two people's martial arts are simply exceptional—like that of a god and a demon. To think that their exchange of blows have the prowess to change the entire world...

The three people standing next to Prince Xin were the ones who had come from the Three Mountains Four Peaks to look for him. All three of them were old men with white hair and a beard. However, their backs were straight, and their auras were deep. They gave off a celestial feeling.

The lean old man, who was the leader of the three, stroked his beard. "Martial Junior Xiao's martial arts have reached an unbelievable realm, and he is just one step away from the legendary Great Dao Realm. His victory is but a matter of time."

Another short and fat old man gathered Gang Qis to his eyes and looked at the campsite in the distance, saying, "He should have succeeded. The other party's 5,000 soldiers have already been knocked out."I think this is with reference from the story Fung Wan. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fung_Wan
