Paragon of Sin
chapter-1407

Enru's form was gargantuan, and her draconic might was daunting to observe, yet as she bit at an area with her full strength, her target wasn't so easily defeated. Thousands upon thousands of Mystic Runes stormed violently around the Earthly Saint, barely revealing the star-pupils, fluffy-tailed, and sharp-eared figure of a handsomely slender figure with the temperament of a royal son of heaven.

A Celestial Chosen!

The Earthly Saint of the Chosen Race let loose a low, growling roar as he pushed out both palms, expanding their Mystic Ward into a sturdy, earthen-yellow sphere that grew to nearly a kilometer in radius.

CHOMP!!

Ernu violently closed her reddish maw! Her sharp, piercing teeth and strong jaws slammed against the sphere. She found herself blocked!

"Hmph! Foul beast!" The Celestial Chosen angrily spat before pushing their hands apart. The sphere began to rapidly expand! Ernu found her mouth trapped as it kept expanding, and a wisp of fear surged in her eyes. Before she could react, the sphere had grown up to four kilometers in radius, and a hearty, spine-chilling snap resounded as her mouth split at the sides, blood gushing downwards. It was as if she was trying to stuff a gargantuan ball into her mouth!

While her strength was domineering to a limit, she was only at her early Second Level of the Draconic Realm, having only grasped this planet-busting power in the last few months. She wasn't very adept at fighting due to her inexperience of age and had made a careless mistake trying to bite her opponent to crush him. Cultivators weren't so simple!

Now, the Celestial Race's Chosen had a clear angle into her esophagus. She could feel his Mystic Aura begin to rise, charging for a devastatingly powerful attack into a vulnerable part of her body. Ernu panicked.

WHOOSH!!

Demonic Dragon Armor!

Xue Yifei's figure was like a violet shadow as she arrived before the sphere, her diamond-shaped scales glistening with a demonic light, and her diamond-shaped pupils radiating earthshaking killing intent. With a clenched left fist, she launched a punch that gathered her strongest strength. The air around her stirred, gathering along the length of her arm. A miniature storm of mana, light, space, time, and demonic power formed that gathered at her fist.

BOOM!!!

"What?!" The Celestial Race's Chosen was immediately taken aback as their spherical manifestation of earthen-yellow mystic power collapsed like paper mache, shattering into motes of billions of crushed light. His eyes widened in indescribable disbelief.

A mortal had such strength?!

Her punch caused it to collapse instantly, and the shockwave was focused by her demonic might, funneling it entirely toward the body of the Celestial Race's Chosen. They formed a hasty defensive measure with their Mystic Aura, but the impact sent them flying hundreds of miles away in a blink, crashing into a nearby region with earthquakes.

Ernu was freed! The Horned-Firmament Azure Dragon couldn't close her mouth as her jaw had been ruthlessly dislocated by the expanding sphere. Xue Yifei's draconic goddess form arrived atop Ernu. With a flick of her slender arm, a small pellet flew into Ernu's mouth and instantly shattered into a gushing river of soft golden light exuding the aura of life.

Within the briefest of moments, Ernu's jaw readjusted into a perfect position, snapping back as the injuries she sustained healed at speeds that could beguile an Ascended being's eyes.

"Don't be careless! Watch out for others!" Her voice was demonically beautiful, capable of both shaking and enchanting the heart, and she spoke in a tone that was unquestionable like a grandmother's instructing tone. Ernu's eyes solidified with a strong anger yet she released a faint nod.

WHOOSH!

The Celestial Race's Chosen emerged from their crater as they flew into the sky, hovering several hundred miles away. "You're the one the others call the Dragonborn Saintess?" They seemed to have taken very little damage from her attack, shrugging it off as their Mystic Physique pulsed with power.

Xue Yifei couldn't help but recall Wei Wuyin's casual comment once while they were lazily sprawled out on a mountain, staring at the beautiful phenomenon of a particular world. He said he always had the urge to laugh when opponents asked useless questions or tried to interact without any genuinely substantial ulterior motive other than curiosity. Why speak?

Just fight!

When everything's settled, you've established your position as the winner, wouldn't it be easy to ask questions then?

She sighed inwardly; Xue Yifei gathered her strength slowly and subtly, building up her power little by little as she stared at this Celestial Race's Chosen. "That's right." She openly admitted.

"No wonder. Your strength is quite terrifying for a mortal. Are you a bestial mutant?" The Celestial Race's Chosen couldn't help but glance at Xue Yifei's transformation, her aura giving strong fluctuations of bestial presence. She felt like a genuine dragon born of a Demonic Lineage. As someone who grew up in the Azure-Prime Galactic Region, the existence of the Demonic Sovereign was prevalent in his heart, and he was fully aware of how terrifying that type of combination could be.

If Xue Yifei hadn't been born somewhere else, she would've been hunted by countless forces, minor and major, and eventually slaughtered mercilessly for her cultivation.

"Bestial Mutant?" Xue Yifei wasn't familiar with that term, genuinely. She lifted her left brow curiously, her internal strength reaching roughly seventy percent and continuing to rise.

The Celestial Race's Chosen frowned slightly as he eyed Xue Yifei's form, and especially her extraordinary beauty that could charm sovereigns and sages alike. In truth, a tinge of heated desire flowed within his heart at the mere sight of her. He loved strong women. Moreover, she was a virgin.

"A Bestial Mutant is a term for a humanoid race mutated by the bloodline of beasts. Typically, this is the result of merging your bloodline lineage with that of a beast, highly unorthodox cultivation methods that eventually pass down onto your familial lineage. Those who initially cultivate the method aren't classified as bestial mutants, but those who are born from them are because the bloodline becomes innately intertwined, affecting the Existential Framework of the infant. They are seen as inferior, unable to reach the Mystic Ascendant Realm."

The Celestial Race's Chosen calmly explained as he eyed Xue Yifei. He couldn't figure out at first glance whether she was a Bestial Mutant or a cultivator who practiced a method that involved the usage of bloodline energy.

Xue Yifei frowned as if deeply contemplating this new information, digesting the question with intense focus. At the moment, her build-up of power had reached over ninety percent. She used her armor to contain and conceal the rampant fluctuations, not causing any disturbance into the air or ambient mana.

"I don't think I'm a Bestial Mutant," she replied with an unsure tone. In truth, by the definition that the Celestial Race said, she shouldn't be one, but Yuan Longshi definitely was one, and she now had qualities of his unique body. Her situation was peculiar.

But in truth-It didn't matter.

100%!

BOOSH!!!

She kicked off a platform of mana, causing the entire world to quiver violently. Xue Yifei's figure blitzed forward!!

The Celestial Race's Chosen was always on guard despite the conversation and swiftly unleashed a defensive-type Fourth Mysticism Ascension Art; a sphere of earthen-yellow formed with tens of layers around him, isolating space, time, and mana.

However, Xue Yifei was undaunted as her strength had gathered to its utter limits, drawing great strength from her World-Bound Star Domain directly, causing her scales to release a burst of solar radiance that enveloped the world in a brief flash of violet, sanguine, black, and white light. The four colors were blinding to observe.

Xue Yifei arrived at the barrier with speed rivaling a supreme ghost, afterimages littered behind her, and she clenched her right fist so tightly that there were faint signs of a black hole forming within! She pulled back her fist and within that same span of time, sent it barreling forward!

The fist was simple yet it contained her greatest concentration of strength to date. Her Draconic Might was unleashed in full! When her knuckles met the barrier, there was an eerie silence that fell upon the world.

The Celestial Race's Earthly Saint's eyes widened as he observed the fist piercing into his barrier. While the scales ripped apart, blood spurting everywhere, and flesh was torn to the point he could even see Xue Yifei's glistening hand bones, it kept going through every layer without stopping for a brief moment.

What type of strength was this?!

He redoubled his effort to reinforce the barrier, but the fist was mighty to an extreme-an unstoppable force! Moreover, he was not an immovable object! Within a millisecond, a time that he could do many things, yet decided to devote that time to reinforce his barrier, the fist had punctured through every defense, reaching his personal Mystic Ward that was like hot butter meeting a sharpened knife.

The fist cut through it all, reaching his Dantian. When it touched his Dantian, aghast as he was, his mind was experiencing nearly indescribable levels of horror and panic. He wanted to shout, instinctively beg for mercy, but the fist arrived at his stomach and with a violent impact, exploded his lower torso within the blink of an Ascended's eye!

A gush of earthen-yellow blood intermixed with traces of golden light splashed across the sky!

Xue Yifei's demonically draconic gaze met his own, and he felt as if he was descending into Hell! How could such a beautiful mortal woman have such disgustingly vicious strength?!

Fortunately, he wasn't without protection. Moreover, he was a Celestial! His Dantian wasn't typically in his lower stomach as most humans or their variants. A talisman guarded his dantian, that was his fluffy tail, so while his lower torso was utterly devastated, his tail sought to escape.

Suddenly, Xue Yifei's horn atop her forehead, which was a mixture of black and white colors enveloped in a sanguine light, released a strong spatial fluctuation.

Yin-Yang Cage of the Firmament!

Xue Yifei unleashed an innate ability of the Horned Firmament Dragon!! The Firmament Cage, a Variant of the Spatial Cage, but as her unique powers had been added upon it, furthering its strength to a level that would put most World Prisons of an Earthly Saint to shame!

The tail had tried to escape, but found itself sealed and restricted! Wisps of endless black and white light unleashing demonic light suppressed it until it had nowhere to run. It squirmed without any signs of escape. Without its body, the strength of the tail was considerably lacking.

"If you had just stood your ground and fought, this would've been tougher." Xue Yifei's enchanting voice resounded as she arrived by the struggling tail that was unleashing bursts of Mystic Light.

Suddenly, several dozen lights rushed forward after seeing this outcome. A few of them were in their Demi-Mystic State. They were Celestials!

ROAR!!

Ernu unleashed a heaven-shaking roar as she flew toward those dozens of lights with her gargantuan form, murderous intent blazing violently within her gaze. Xue Yifei faintly smiled as she thought for a moment, fully sealing the tail with a wave of her hand.

However, she was fully exhausted. At the moment, she could barely maintain her Demonic Dragon Armor. That was the cost of gathering all your strength and unleashing it-you quite literally unleash all your strength. The strain was not minor, but she tried to swiftly gather what starforce lingered in the air to replenish herself.

Fortunately, her Starforce possessed Permanence.

She slowly turned toward the shockwaves in the distance. Sensing the intense fluctuations of Yin Force and Imperial Heaven Aura, she couldn't help but grin. In comparison to fighting this idiot of an Earthly Saint, the Ascendants weren't easy to deal with.

Xue Yifei looked up at the sky; there were nearly a hundred Solar Stars in the sky, all unleashing a myriad of colors upon the landscape. All those were World-Bound Star Domains!

"My husband is something to cultivate those monsters..." Thinking of how Wei Wuyin had almost single-handedly cultivated the Ascendants from nothing, she couldn't help but feel proud.

Meanwhile, just a few seconds earlier, Na Xinyi and Wu Baozhai had just begun the most intense fight of their lives.

[Author's Note: Wei Wuyin rarely uses his titanic strength, but our girl Xue Yifei has no issues with it.]
