In all honesty, Xu Chengxian was rather handsome. He lacked heroic spirit, but now due to his fury, he seemed more and more soldierly, making up for the deficiency in his imposing manner.
He was only 17 to 18 years old at the moment, but he was already a top-notch expert amongst the universe’s younger generation. His formidable heaven-bestowed strength made him constantly conceited.
Yet today, he was unexpectedly humiliated as well as looked down upon. His hair moved hysterically and a divine brilliance burst from his tranquil eyes.
“You must all die!” He yelled as his body’s energy shot up with an alarming saturation. During recent times his power on Earth had greatly increased.He looked at Chu Feng with hatred because previously, he had witnessed him biting Qin Luoyin’s scarlet lips in his fight against the goddess of the Dameng Pure Land. This made him loathe and detest the latter. As he understood it, the Dameng Pure Land intended to ally with the Spirit Race through marriage and he himself had already chosen Qin Luoyin as his dao companion.
And now, it almost maddened him that Chu Feng was daring to be so provoking.
“Charge!” Xu Chengxian bellowed. It was a change from his usual gentle temperament. He was like a fearful beast, releasing a shocking evil-foreboding air as he was about to dive forwards.
“My divine son, wait a moment!” Beside him, a middle-aged man from the Spirit Race quickly grabbed him back and said, “Your body is precious and divine. How could you take to the playing field so rashly! Let Old Zhang go and kill him!”
Clearly, this middle-aged man was of high status. He had powerful strength and his words had great authority. The Spirit Race’s divine son, Myriad Star Physique Xu Chengxian, couldn’t help but consider his suggestion.
Naturally, he knew that the middle-aged man was out for his good. He didn’t let him interact with Chu Feng as everyone knew how terrible the great Demon Chu was.
Many months ago, Chu Feng made an impressive name for himself through his killings at the battle of the home of myriad gods in Mount Kunlun. He had beheaded the Deity Race’s divine son Luo Fu and slaughtered the Netherworld Race’s divine son. Moreover, he had killed many Dao protectors in a row. In the end, he had walked away unhindered as his ferocity was too great.“Chu Feng... he means nothing!”
However, the Myriad Star Physique Xu Chengxian was malevolent at this moment and didn’t listen to the advice. Instead, he began swearing because he couldn’t stand the title Myriad Green Physique.
Simultaneously, he was also very self-confident. His recent evolution on Earth was evident, and his strength had increased by a great proportion. At the same time, he thought back to the great battle of Kunlun, where Chu Feng had relied merely on the resplendent reincarnation flame. But then it had almost depleted so it was not worth being fearful of.
“My divine son!” The middle-aged man muttered and nevertheless pulled him back.
At the same moment, several elders from the Spirit Race stood up. One of them was particularly strong with eyes like silver lanterns, emitting a divine radiance. Meanwhile, his exterior was also silver white and this proceeded to intensify. This Dao protector rose up into the air and, without waiting for another word from Xu Chengxian, started out on a mission to murder Chu Feng.
“Myriad Green Physique, you’re mine. Come here!” Ouyang Feng shouted from a distance.
Chu Feng restrained him and told him not to hurry. Then he himself rushed forth to welcome the elder. Without another word, he wielded his reincarnation blade.
“The Spirit Race’s Zhang Kun!” The elder charged forward and announced his own name.
“Cut the rubbish. Your name means nothing when you’re only a dead man!” Chu Feng shouted. He had no goodwill feelings toward the Spirit Race. They had targeted the evolvers from Earth from the very beginning and had wanted to kill him on multiple occasions.
For instance, when a fair fight was underway between him and the Deity Race’s saint, he was drawing support from Kunlun’s Heavenly Vine, but the Spirit Race’s saintess Mu Qinghan had wanted to interfere with the fight. She had even attacked, intending to kill him and Yaoyao.
And not long ago, a few of the elders from the Spirit Race had ambushed all of those at Mount Eternal. They caused great injuries to Yellow Ox, Ouyang Feng, and the others. There were deaths even among the great Kunlun demons.
Now, they were here again on a large scale invasion. How could he not kill them?
“Attack!”
In a split second, they became engaged in a fight. At once, Chu Feng used Lightning Fist and the power bursting out from the amazing Yang-Realm technique exceeded expectations. Shining, radiating, and exploding, he resembled a sun in the form of a human!
Yang qi rolled in front of Chu Feng’s fist. He was surging with energy while practically sweeping away all obstacles in the way.
He attacked with his bare hands, pushing his way forward as valor pervaded out of his entire body. This shook the island, and all were stifled due to their fear. The Yang qi was greatly intimidating!
On the other side, Zhang Kun, the Spirit Race’s elder, had originally produced nine flying swords. These had formed an arrangement of swords, but it was now broken up by a beat.
Dang, dang, dang...
It was the attack of Chu Feng’s fists. His golden fists were hitting hard on the flying swords, and the collision sent out beam after beam of gaudy sword rays. The sky became dazzling as the rain of light was like a waterfall with a terrifying and majestic aura. Many evolvers were horrified.
Clang!
Finally, one of the blue-green flying swords could no longer bear the fists and shattered from the beating.
Bang!
Following this, another purple flying sword flew out of the arrangement.
Chu Feng’s fists were resplendent and grew increasingly violent. Soaring with Yang qi, his body was like a great big fireball. He bathed in an energy-rich golden light and resembled a war god looking down on the battlefield.
Ka-cha!
Eventually, an azure-blue flying sword fell apart in pieces. Originally, this was a high-quality secret treasure, yet now, Chu Feng’s resplendent golden fists had shattered it. He had destroyed a secret treasure using his bare hands!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
The remaining six flying swords turned and came shooting over, resonating to one another like six practiced horses. They were to dismember him. They had an unusually dazzling radiance, and their sword qi was like a rainbow. From a distance, they looked like six wonderful rainbows with terrifying sword qi. They destroyed the ashy fog enshrouding the island and lit up the entire place.
Chu Feng snorted coldly. He rose up into the air and charged ahead. A big golden clock appeared by his side and inscribed upon it were the twelve true form diagrams.
However, now this wasn’t used to show breathing techniques. Instead, it was used to drive the Robbery Induction breathing technique.
The most terrifying aspect of the Robbery Induction was that it could steal away the true meanings of other techniques and use them as its own. Now that it was spurred on its might was becoming even more vigorous.
Dang, dang, dang...
With raging sword qi, countless sword beams exploded out. Yet in the end, Chu Feng managed to block them all using the energy from the Robbery Induction breathing technique to form a Golden Bell Canopy.
Bang!
He was like a human bomber but with incredible speed. He knocked the flying swords away and swooped down as energy issued from his body at an alarming intensity.
The golden mushroom cloud rising up from his body could be seen, faintly colliding violently with Zhang Kun, whose countenance had changed abruptly.
Dang!
The sound of the bell was imposing. The dazzling Golden Bell Canopy surrounding Chu Feng’s body bashed against Zhang Kun and blood trickled from the corner of the latter’s mouth as he fell backward.
Unquestionably, Zhang Kun was a well-known figure amongst the Dao protectors. His powerlaid amidst the later stages of the transformation realm, and his battle capacity was quite high. His race had spent quite a lot of resources to send him to Earth.
Yet his arm was convulsing after the fierce match, and the web between his thumb and forefinger of his right hand was covered with blood. He couldn’t overthrow Chu Feng’s Golden Bell Canopy nor block his Lightning Fist.
This was because the Yang-Realm technique was too potent and could sweep all that was in its way. It crushed its way onwards!
In the short-lasting fight, Zhang Kun had fallen over a thousand feet backward. He was one of the few who could fly on the island but was now falling.
Bang!
Another Lightning Fist was sent over. The divine technique was incomparable and its golden light ripped open the sky like lightning. After illuminating Zhang Kun’s pale face, it also shone upon the shocked faces of divine sons from various races.
Plop!
One of Zhang Kun’s arms dropped off from his shoulder as Chu Feng’s horrifying fist twisted it off. One side of his body then became fissured as blood dripped from it.
Soon after, he shrieked miserably. With a loud bang, his body collapsed after another strike from the golden fist and he transformed in a rain of blood. And thus, an expert perished.
“Who else is there? Come on!” Chu Feng shouted loudly.
“This demon is too savage. We have to join forces and kill him!” The middle-aged man by Xu Chengxian’s side muttered. He wanted to unite the divine sons so that they would attack together.
Using his Fiery Eyes, Chu Feng could see his mouth clearly. Immediately, he knew what he was talking about and said, “I could kill your Dao protectors when I was in the visualization realm. Even if you’re stronger than them, why would I be afraid of you since I’m now in the cloudeater realm? You dared to set foot on this island and kill my brothers, so today, I’ll kill however many you come at me with. None of you will leave!”
All of the evolvers on the island were trembling with fear, terrified of Chu Feng.
Chu Feng shouted once again. “Xu Chengxian and Innocuous Divine Physique, come out. Weren’t you guys after my breathing technique? You even tried to murder my parents for it. I’m here now, so come and fight me!”
“Get out of the way!” Xu Chengxian pushed the middle-aged man away to stop him from obstructing.
The middle-aged man tried to dissuade him and said, “My divine son, don’t act impulsively. This demon is increasingly harder to fathom. We don’t have to fight to the death with him when we have other tricks.”
“Do you think I’m not as good as him? Last time, he was depending on the reincarnation flame and ambushes. Why would I be afraid of him this time?!” Xu Chengxian didn’t listen to the advice and was conceited and confident.
Bang!
Meanwhile, he soared into the sky, acting quickly.
A weapon, which seemed ancient and antique, appeared in his hand. This was most definitely an old tool and looked like a lance remodeled from a club.
Chu Feng recognized this at once. This was the pole from the Divine Blood Banner. Under the watchful eyes of everyone else, Xu Chengxian didn’t dare use the banner and only took out the weapon’s pole.
Xu Chengxian berated, “Chu Feng, who do you think you are? I have always hated you. I wanted to kill you. Demon Chu? Get yourself over here and I’ll kill you now!”
He had always been conceited and arrogant, enjoying success from a young age. But Chu Feng had ambushed him at Kunlun, beating him so bad that the back of his head swelled and poured with blood. To him, it was an incredible humiliation.
“Clang!”
Without another word, Chu Feng took out his reincarnation blade to face the dangerous Divine Blood Banner. This was because he was fully aware of how terrible this secret treasure was, as he, too, possessed one.
Dang!
In a split second, the two people burst out. As they charged together, the two weapons clashed and sparks flew in all directions. It was incomparably violent!
Of course, the opponent’s metal-pole-turned-lance was rather formidable. It could block the reincarnation blade without being snapped in half. It was an ancient weapon and was considered as an unusual piece of treasure.
“Die!”
In that instant, the Myriad Star Physique Xu Chengxian used up all his might. He didn’t want to fight Chu Feng tediously. Instead, he wanted to see their strength at once using their strongest techniques.
Then a brilliance diffused from his body. It was unusually vivid around him. There were stars as big as millstones revolving around him.
Meanwhile, what was in the middle of the sky was even more dreadful. The dense fog on the island had dispersed as the starlights in the outer realms twinkled before they poured down in torrents. Numerous stars emerged in the daylight, striving for splendor with the sun!
At this moment countless stars were falling gloriously.
Far across the sky, the stars’ radiance illuminated the world. They then began to converge until in the end, it looked as though there were many silver waterfalls falling through the sky, crashing toward Xu Chengxian.
The Myriad Star Physique was aggregating the luster of all the stars to boost his own body!
“No technique could encroach me. How could you fight against me?!” Xu Chengxian bellowed. With his hair flying upward and his gaze fierce and forceful, his grandeur was compelling.
Chu Feng tried to strike forward using his Reincarnation Blade. Unexpectedly, it didn’t do anything to the stars as the stars were too dense and formed a thick layer. It was practically a wall forged out of divine gold and protected Xu Chengxian so that he was far behind the front line.
Now, he was bathed in the stars’ radiance and their power. His core was like a god’s, and external techniques could hardly harm his body!
Everyone drew in gulps of cold air. This constitution was so abnormal and simply unshakable!
Bang!
Chu Feng hacked vertically with the reincarnation blade in his grasp, the soaring red clouds filled with incomparable might. Yet in the end, only a tiny part of the stars were cut off. He hadn’t managed to slice it open completely, and so the Myriad Star Physique remained untouched!
“I’m divine all throughout, how could you beat me? Bring me your life!” Xu Chengxian shouted.
He resembled a colossus traveling as he steered the stars to move with a rumble. There was too much movement, and the stars filling up the sky surged up violently. There was an outpour of energy as he thrust his metal lance forward together with the dense body of stars. Lightning flashed and thunder reverberated.
Bang!
Chu Feng dodged. Frightening divine radiance flew out from the lance’s point and it evoked a torrent of smoke and rocks dashing to the skies after it fell onto the island. One hit from the lance was enough to stir up a great mountain!
People drew in breaths of cold air and even the countenances of divine sons from various races shifted. No one had imagined that Xu Chengxian was this powerful.
Even the old geniuses from the Deity Race muttered and said, “His strength has risen drastically over the past few months he had spent on Earth. He has realized the force of the starry skies, which has responded to his constitution. Now, there’s few who could suppress him. This is the beginning of the Myriad Star Physique’s awakening!”
Everyone else agreed. Xu Chengxian had definitely become one of the strongest young evolvers!
Bang!
Xu Chengxian, with his lance in hand and bathed in the stars’ luster, charged toward Chu Feng once again as the stars encircled his lance. His energy surged as he practically shattered the air.
At this moment, he seemed as though he was possessed by a battle god!
Between heaven and earth, a great violent explosion sounded. Every strike of his glittered with starlight and was rolling with energy. He was practically destroying everything in his way!
Chu Deng’s scarlet blade gleam was unable to hack open the starlight. All his attacks were rendered useless.
“Chu Feng, so-called Demon Chu, get over here and accept your death. In my eyes, you’re already dead!” Xu Chengxian berated, murderous intent filling his handsome face.
