Chapter 1788: The Power of Space!Translated by: Hypersheep325 Edited by: Michyrr “Die for me! Coiling Dragon Art!” A Saint Martial Barracks soldier bulged with muscle as he roared, Stellar Energy exploding from his body. Roooar! The torrent of Stellar Energy transformed into large serpents and snakes that wriggled into his spear as it stabbed at True Lord Yellow Dragon. This strike packed enormous power, creating a sonic boom as it traversed the air.

Only the best of the best could have survived up to this point in the battle, and this Saint Martial Barracks soldier was clearly one of them. “Not knowing your own strength!” True Lord Yellow Dragon coldly snorted, his face relaxed. He didn’t even glance at that soldier, but that Saint Martial Barracks soldier charging at him felt all his Stellar Energy instantly disperse. Everyone watched in shock as the Saint Martial Barracks soldier howled, blood erupting from his eyes, ears, and pores. Thud! The soldier plunged from the sky like a lifeless block of wood.

In the entire process, True Lord Yellow Dragon hadn’t even moved a muscle. Someone pointed at the sky and shouted, “What is that!?” Whoooah! Everyone soon saw the oddity in the sky. At the point where the Saint Martial Barracks soldier had begun his descent, there was a translucent, human-shaped figure floating, twisting and struggling, apparently screaming in pain.

And upon close examination, this was clearly the now-deceased Saint Martial Barracks soldier on the ground. “Captain!” The remnants of the Saint Martial Barracks cried out, their eyes red. But the others who witnessed this scene reacted in a completely different manner. Whoosh! Even the First Prince’s soldiers and the men in black backed away in fear. The soul!

The yellow-robed man in the air could extract a person’s soul! This was the power of a demon! “Ignorant and puny ant! You dared to attack this god?

Death is truly too good for you!” True Lord Yellow Dragon’s voice was cold and resounding. With a wave of his palm, the soul of that Saint Martial Barracks soldier immediately began to compress until it was a wisp of black smoke the size of a child’s arm that flew into his palm. “Your torture will continue for one thousand years!” True Lord Yellow Dragon turned his gaze to the Saint Martial Barracks soldiers, the Dragon Guards, and the True Dragon Sentinels. Whoosh! All of them instantly grimaced. They didn’t fear death, but none of them could endure their soul being extracted and tortured for one thousand years. “Everyone, be careful!

Don’t be rash!” one of the Saint Martial Barracks soldiers said in grief. That figure in the air was truly unfathomable, and his abilities far exceeded their imagination. But True Lord Yellow Dragon paid them no heed.

From start to finish, he had never cared about the Saint Martial Barracks soldiers or the Dragon Guards. All he cared about was the man within Taiji Palace, the Sage Emperor. Bang! Without even waiting for those below to discuss countermeasures, True Lord Yellow Dragon began to stride through the air. “Treasonous scum, die!” The Dragon Guards had a much simpler reaction. Without hesitation, these powerful soldiers slashed at that dazzling golden figure in the sky.

But those Dragon Guards had barely tightened their grip on their swords and had yet to unleash those grandiose and destructive beams of Sword Qi when, boom! Massive pressure descended onto their bodies. Crack! The cracking of bones rang out through the night. These Dragon Guards, who had been nightmarish existences to the Imperial Army elites and men in black, immediately kneeled. Their kneecaps slammed into the ground, causing the earth to tremble.

All the Dragon Guards on the white jade steps instantly broke out into cold sweats, their faces turning pale. “How could this be?!” All the Dragon Guards were stunned. As the Sage Emperor’s personal guards, they had hearts of steel, and this conviction in their duty made it so that very few things in the world could shake them. Though they knew that the figure in the sky was extremely strong, they had never imagined that he would be this strong.

This pressure alone was enough to render them motionless. All of them finally understood why that Saint Martial Barracks soldier had only gotten within several dozen feet of True Lord Yellow Dragon before his Stellar Energy collapsed and he died. Crackcrack! The Dragon Guards attempted to struggle, the swords in their hands trembling and vibrating while blood seeped out from the chinks in their armor, but in front of True Lord Yellow Dragon’s pressure, none of them could stand. “It’s useless! The weak are the weak!

Trying to struggle with your strength will only lead your meridians to break and your life to end!” True Lord Yellow Dragon coldly declared, and he took another step toward Taiji Palace. His steps were so confident and relaxed that it seemed like nothing in the world could stop him. Bang! At this moment, the weakest of the Dragon Guards suddenly trembled, and then blood gushed from the chinks in his armor. Many of the meridians in his body had snapped at this moment.

The bodies of the remaining Dragon Guards began to tremble even more fiercely, beads of sweat as large as beans dripping down from their hair. But in the end, not a single one of them was able to stand. It was like they had been nailed to the ground. “Too frightening!” The Imperial Army elites in the rear felt fear and awe, and their jaws dropped in shock.

Although the Imperial Army considered itself one of the most elite armies in the world, and the Imperial Palace was itself a den of hidden dragons, they had never before seen such a terrifying being. Those Dragon Guards who had been like gods and devils were powerless against True Lord Yellow Dragon. And the ability of True Lord Yellow Dragon to extract souls also had all of them shivering in fear. “Wonderful!

Kill them! Once we kill those scoundrels, no one will be left to stand in the way of this prince!” First Prince Li Ying stood in the rear of the army, his right fist clenched in excitement. Only the twelve True Dragon Sentinels stood in his way now.

He was on the verge of reaching that supreme throne. As True Lord Yellow Dragon got closer and closer, that pressure grew stronger and stronger. Thud! Thud!

Thud! The three Dragon Guards closest to True Lord Yellow Dragon suddenly bled from every orifice and dropped dead to the ground, and the rest trembled even more fiercely. At this time, the only ones standing were the twelve True Dragon Sentinels. “Move out!” With these two simple words, the True Dragon Sentinels attacked. If they didn’t act now, all the Dragon Guards would die to True Lord Yellow Dragon! Bang! Space trembled, and without anyone being able to see how the attack had been made, a black wave of saber energy cleaved through the earth and shot toward True Lord Yellow Dragon.

In a flash, it was only a few inches from his face. If this attack struck, then even if True Lord Yellow Dragon had been made of steel, he would still be cut in two. Bzzz! One black wave of energy after another was unleashed. There were twelve in total, each fired at a different time and from a different location.

However, all of them arrived at the same time, their energies resonating with each other. The twelve True Dragon Sentinels were attacking the same opponent at once, something that had never happened before. It was obvious that the True Dragon Sentinels felt an unprecedented danger from this man floating in the air.

But despite the awesome power of these twelve attacks, True Lord Yellow Dragon was indifferent, not even a small ripple of emotion on his face. Bzzz! He extended his right hand, and his fingers slowly opened. Inconceivably, those twelve waves of saber energy suddenly froze in the air, several inches from his body, as if time had stopped.

Saber energy was formless, not a physical object. It was impossible for it to remain in one place for very long. Not even the most powerful martial artist could accomplish this.

What was happening here defied the principles of martial arts that all of them knew. “This! Impossible! He can freeze space!” One of the True Dragon Sentinels suddenly realized what was going on.

The saber energy had frozen in the air, becoming like real sabers, but this was not on account of their own strength. Instead, that figure in the air had utilized some supreme ability to freeze that region of space so that nothing within it, even saber energy, could move. The Power of Space!

This was a legendary energy that belonged in the domain of gods and devils. No martial artist since ancient times had ever been able to grasp it. At the very least, there existed no such character in the legends of the Central Plains.

But now, they were seeing it with their own eyes. Space was even more incorporeal than Psychic Energy. That man in the air had unquestionably reached a level of unthinkable power. !!
