Their leader’s Yellow Scarf Warrior was a top-class art of their organization. After all, this was an art that could turn Stellar Energy into stone. Only those of the Immortal level and above could overcome it.

  They would have never believed that the Child of Destruction they were chasing could possess such terrifying strength, breaking their leader’s Yellow Scarf Warrior with just one attack.

  “Impossible! How could he be this powerful?!”

  The second bamboo hat man found it hard to conceal his shock. Of course, he was also the only one of the three who had not exchanged blows with Wang Chong.

  But the three bamboo hat men were far from the only ones to be shocked.

  “It’s him!”

  The Righteous Alliance members turned to look and instantly recognized Wang Chong.

  “It’s that fake Young Master Qingyang!”

  “No, that’s the Demonic Emperor’s disciple! He’s also here!”

  Wang Chong had once used the name of Young Master Qingyang to stay with the Righteous Alliance for a time. Many people were very familiar with his appearance.

  “How could this be!?”

  Song Yuanyi and Xie Guangting also took notice of Wang Chong.

  The alliance lord and vice alliance lord had been through many trials and had developed calm and steady personalities that were not easily perturbed.

  But when they saw Wang Chong slowly descending from the sky, they both grimaced.

  Song Yuanyi, Xie Guangting, and the Righteous Alliance experts had all experienced the power of the three bamboo hat men. The Yellow Scarf Warrior in particular was incredibly strong.

  When Song Yuanyi had fought with him, he had been in an extremely disadvantageous position. If not for the Eternal Spring Mantra’s superb defense, ability to endure long battles, and formidable repulsive power, he probably would have been defeated by the Yellow Scarf Warrior.

  “This kid! When did he get so strong?!”

  The Black Yin Ancestor and his comrades had also noticed what was going on.

  The Black Yin Ancestor had been extremely hard-pressed in his battle. He was singlehandedly dealing with several experts of the same class as the bamboo hat men, and many half–Lu Wus and Black Flame Asuras had also joined in the assault.

  These men in black were simply too strong, their martial arts alien to the Central Plains, and they seemed to have an endless number of top-class experts.

  Whether it was the Five Ancestor Alliance or Righteous Alliance, they were just barely holding.

  Thus, they were stunned to see Wang Chong defeat the strongest of the three bamboo hat men, the Yellow Scarf Warrior, with only a single strike.

  This was the overwhelming strength of a war god, and on this perilous battlefield, it instantly made many people envious and admiring.

  At this moment, the only person who had remained completely calm and unaffected was Wang Chong.

  Art of God and Demon Obliteration!

  This was a supreme technique inherited from Great Tang War God Su Zhengchen. It was a transcendent sword art that had been used to hold a city against tens of thousands of otherworldly invaders. It was excruciatingly difficult to cultivate, and one could spend decades without reaching the level of major understanding.

  Ever since Wang Chong had obtained it, he had been stuck at the level of minor understanding. In the mediocre realms of the True Martial realm and Profound Martial realm, minor understanding would have been more than enough. But it was incredibly lacking in the range of the peak Saint Martial realm to half-step Subtle.

  In normal circumstances, Wang Chong would truly have needed several decades to reach the level of major understanding.

  But with the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art, the boundless and unfathomable might of the Origin Immortal Sword, and the small portion of the Origin Immortal Art he had obtained, Wang Chong had finally been able to convert his Stellar Energy into God Demon Obliteration Stellar Energy!

  He had been able to completely bypass the incredibly difficult cultivation process of the Art of God and Demon Obliteration. For the first time, he was using the God Demon Obliteration energy at the level of major understanding.

  Each of the ten great arts of the Central Plains had their own specialty. While the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art was powerful, that was merely in the aspect of increasing one’s power and when targeting an opponent’s Stellar Energy. In terms of true offensive power, however, only the Art of God and Demon Obliteration could fully make use of Wang Chong’s immense reserves of Stellar Energy.

  “In that case…!”

  As Wang Chong calmly landed on the ground, his body radiating energy, he passed his eyes over the fallen Yellow Scarf Warrior, a hint of surprise in them.

  He was still not too familiar with the Art of God and Demon Obliteration, as he had not had enough time to fully grasp its inner workings. But as he used it more and more, he would gradually be able to exhibit its full might!

  “Hmph, a thorn has appeared. It seems to be that Child of Destruction!” the man with the three-eyed deer mask standing near the passage suddenly said, his eyes coldly gleaming.

  He was keeping track of the entire battlefield and had seen that both Song Yuanyi and the Black Yin Ancestor were completely suppressed. But Wang Chong had defeated two of the three bamboo hat men, with not even the strongest Yellow Scarf Warrior able to hold him down.

  The deer-masked man had seen Wang Chong before, at the heart of the Origin Immortal Formation, and he had been mere moments from capturing him. But the deer-masked man had not expected that the Wang Chong that the three bamboo hat men had been chasing would appear here, and that he would defeat the Yellow Scarf Warrior with just one strike.

  As the man with the three-eyed deer mask prepared to go forward, the man with the golden-red tiger mask spoke in his deep and emotionless voice. “Goat Immortal, you should go. Since the Yellow Scarf Warrior can’t complete his mission, go and kill the boy for him!”

  The three of them had been standing on the sidelines this entire time. While this had partially been out of pride in their status, it was also to act as a reserve so that they could be ready at any time to deal with suddenly emerging thorns like the Child of Destruction.

  “Understood! It’s just a tiny ant! Let me end him!”

  The man with the four-horned goat mask, the ‘Goat Immortal’, looked at Wang Chong and faintly chuckled. He took two steps forward, a scornful look in his eyes, and then his body suddenly erupted with an energy that could cause the entire world to pale.

  All the air for one hundred feet around him suddenly began to twist and distort.

  “It’s him!”

  The Goat Immortal had just begun to move when Righteous Alliance Lord Song Yuanyi and the Black Yin Ancestor both sensed it. The two of them turned to the tall and thin masked man, their faces paling.

  This was not their first clash with this Goat Immortal. They had fought with him in the caves, but neither Song Yuanyi nor the Black Yin Ancestor had been any match.

  “This is a problem! That kid might not be able to hold out,” Xie Guangting suddenly said. He had no good impressions of the Demonic Emperor’s disciple, but these mysterious and powerful men in black clearly wanted to wipe them all out. Whether or not they liked each other, they were all in the same boat. If Wang Chong were defeated, the rest of them would all probably be killed.

  Song Yuanyi said nothing, but there was an inscrutable light in his eyes.

  “Damn, that bastard’s coming again!”

  On the other side, the Black Yin Ancestor wasn’t thinking that far. As the golden-masked Goat Immortal slowly came forward, the Black Yin Ancestor broke out in a cold sweat. When Wang Chong had pulled out the Origin Immortal Sword, causing the caves to quake and drawing everyone to his lo
cation, the Black Yin Ancestor had encountered this Goat Immortal.

  For the first time in his life, the Black Yin Ancestor had been one-sidedly beaten down, only able to take blows without countering, and he had even been reaching his limits as a punching bag.

  The reason the Black Yin Ancestor had emerged from the passage in his dragon form was that the Goat Immortal had still been chasing him down. The Black Yin Ancestor felt dread and death from this man like never before.

  “That kid is doomed. None of us is a match for that Goat Immortal. Probably eighty percent of the people will die here. Once they act, we’ll look for a chance and do our best to break out!”

  A mental wave came from his side. The Bone Devil Ancestor, as a member of the evil path, was a very pragmatic person. In his eyes, Wang Chong had already lost.

  Bang!

  The earth quaked as the tall and thin Goat Immortal suddenly shot forward with astonishing speed, much faster than the Greater Void Step used by the bamboo hat men.

  Above him, the Goat Immortal left a faint scar in the air. His immense energy was actually cutting through the air and making it part.

  Baaaa!

  Everyone heard a strange bleat, then golden light exploded, and a massive golden goat appeared above the cliff. This golden goat had narrow eyes and silver pupils. It exuded an aura of cruelty and power, like a god descended to earth.

  The golden goat looked down from the heavens, locked onto Wang Chong, and then shot toward him like a comet.

  “Ah!”

  Before Wang Chong could even act, the righteous and evil martial artists, as well as the numerous unaffiliated martial artists, felt a dreadful pressure that made them shriek in fear.

  The Goat Immortal’s attack hadn’t even struck yet, but the vast pressure it radiated was already enough to render them motionless. As their bodies trembled, they could feel their meridians beginning to crack and groan.

  “Come!”

  Wang Chong looked up at the Goat Immortal, who seemed intent on bringing down the entire cliff, and his eyes erupted with unprecedented killing intent.

  This Goat Immortal had clearly reached the Subtle realm, and his strength was perhaps even above Bagushidu when bolstered by his three cauldrons. But Wang Chong had no intention of backing down.

  Wang Chong could clearly sense heat from the Origin Immortal Sword, and a destructive energy was surging in a seemingly infinite torrent.

  This was the first time Wang Chong had ever seen a weapon like this, a weapon that had transcended the category of swords. The divine sword caused Wang Chong’s mental energy and various martial arts to soar in power to unprecedented levels.

  “It’s time to see just how powerful the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art at the Subtle realm is!”

  Wang Chong’s black hair danced in the wind. His body felt slightly hot, the divine sword boosting him so much that his power threatened to burst out of his body.

  Boom! Wang Chong leaped forward like a cannonball, shooting toward the Goat Immortal. As Wang Chong rose into the air, the world howled. The vast quantities of Origin Energy built up in the core of the treasury over a thousand years together with the spiritual energy from deep in the earth was all drawn toward Wang Chong.

  The Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art!

  The number one evil art exhibited a might that could awe the world. This was a power that not even the Demonic Emperor Old Man in his prime, when he dominated the martial arts world, could match.

  “Ah!”

  Countless people backed away, their eyes wide open in fear.

  At this moment, a golden sun and red moon had appeared in the air, dozens of times larger than before, dominating the airspace.

  Even the Black Yin Ancestor and Song Yuanyi were taken aback by this sight.

  The Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art was the supreme evil art, and once activated, it would cause the Stellar Energy of everyone in the vicinity to leave their bodies and flow into the body of the user. But at this moment, even though Wang Chong’s Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art had surpassed the peak Great General level and ascended to an even higher realm, it had no effect on any of the people in the area.

  Its power was completely concentrated on the Goat Immortal. Wang Chong had clearly reached a transcendent level of proficiency in the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art. At this level, there was no distinction between righteous and evil.

  “Impossible, impossible! How could the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art be this powerful?!” the Black Yin Ancestor, Myriad Ghost Ancestor, and Bone Devil Ancestor all shouted in stupefaction, astounded by Wang Chong’s power.

  Song Yuanyi and Xie Guangting were also greatly moved by the sight.

  A split-second later, two attacks of unprecedented fury collided like competing comets, several hundred feet above the cliff.

  “Great Destruction Art!” Wang Chong suddenly called out, his icy voice like a boom of thunder.

  Rumble!

  For a moment, all light seemed to vanish from the core region, plunging everything into the darkest night. But the rumbling and booming in the air did not cease, only grew louder and louder. The two dreadful Stellar Energies were constantly colliding with each other like primordial beasts, constantly gnawing and slashing.

  As they ‘looked’ above, even the tiger-masked man and deer-masked man couldn’t help but pale. They had believed that the Goat Immortal was more than enough to instantly take care of Wang Chong and all those other martial artists.

  They had never expected the Child of Destruction to be this frightening. Even the Goat Immortal would need some time to take care of him.

  Bang!

  At this moment of stalemate, a fair and slender palm suddenly thrust forward, pressing up against the chin of the giant golden goat.

  “What is this?”

  Even the Goat Immortal was taken by surprise by Wang Chong’s abrupt action, confused as to what he was up to. But a moment later, he heard Wang Chong speak in a voice that was neither too loud nor too soft, one that was faintly tinged with a despotic aura.

  “Yin and Yang in Resonance, the Hundred Rivers Join the Sea!”

  Wang Chong’s eyes flashed with cold light. He merged his understanding of the Origin Immortal Art with the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art and unleashed their combined power. Rumble! A moment later, Wang Chong’s Stellar Energy began to circulate in reverse, and a whirlpool appeared in his dantian, the symbol of the ‘Origin’.

  And this also caused a shift in the stalemate…

  Bang!

  Space depressed around Wang Chong’s left palm, and that giant golden goat that was capable of sundering the heavens and earth began to deflate like a balloon. That blazing Subtle Immortal Stellar Energy began to surge into Wang Chong’s body.

  “What?!”

  The Goat Immortal instantly paled, his composure and confidence lost.

  This Child of Destruction had displayed wondrous strength, but it had still not been enough to defeat him. The Goat Immortal had never imagined that a meek ant would be able to steal his energy.

  No! This was no longer simply stealing. He was swallowing his energy like some great whale!

  The Goat Immortal was losing energy at an astonishing rate, and all of it was empowering Wang Chong.

  At the Subtle realm, one’s Stellar Energy became like an impregnable fortress, and no outside force could shake it, at least for ninety percent of the world’s martial artists. He had never imagined that an ant that had not reached the Subtle realm would be able to absorb his Stellar Energy which was as heavy as a mountain!

  This was in complete defiance of his understanding of the world!

  “Art of God and Demon Obliteration!”

  Wang Chong’s cold voice resounded through the core region, his eyes sharp. Boom! B
ang! The Origin Immortal Sword tore through spacetime, allowing a boundless golden energy from a higher dimension to pour in. This pure and blazing energy traveled through the Origin Immortal Sword into Wang Chong’s body.

  Others were slow to realize what this golden liquid flowing through this spatial tear into Wang Chong was, but the Demonic Emperor Old Man and Wushang Village Chief were both flabbergasted.

  The energy of the Subtle realm!

  The two of them had recognized this power at a glance.

  The Demonic Emperor Old Man and Wushang Village Chief had previously joined together to make a breach into the Subtle realm that they had used to defeat Bagushidu, but the effort had left them so exhausted that they had chosen not to join the battle for now. And the two of them had been rather worried that Wang Chong would not be a match for his foe.

  They had never expected Wang Chong to be this formidable. He was somehow able to absorb the Subtle realm Stellar Energy of the Goat Immortal and then use this energy to open a passage to that higher dimension and obtain its power.

  Boom!

  The world quaked as an immense energy erupted from Wang Chong’s body. In the blink of an eye, a white bolt of Sword Qi thousands of times brighter than the sun shot forth.

  As this Sword Qi flew through the air, it cut through space and also cut through the giant golden goat form that the Goat Immortal had assumed.

  Bang!

  As everyone else cried out in alarm, the Goat Immortal screamed. His Stellar Energy was scattered, the golden goat vanishing like melting snow. The tall and thin figure left behind flew through the air like a ragdoll to slam into a rock wall thirty-some meters away. The wall immediately caved in, and rocks and dust rained down from the ceiling.

  “Ah!!”

  As the Goat Immortal’s tattered figure dropped down from the wall, all the men in black paled, including the three bamboo hat men. Even the Yellow Scarf Warrior’s eyes flew open in alarm.

  Only he understood what sort of status the word ‘Immortal’ held in their organization. Their immense strength made them true immortals, and even he felt that he would be no match for the Goat Immortal.
