History's Strongest Senior Brother c1-1474

  Jing Zhong and the other Flame Devil Kings naturally couldn’t allow Yuan Zhengfeng and the others to wreck this. Therefore, they had pursued them in battle all the way, all being congregated here now.

  To normal people, this region of sea was extremely vast.

  However, to Martial Saints, the space available was extremely limited.

  And currently, in this extremely limited space, more than ten Martial Saint level fighters had been gathered here from the two sides, battling it out as the heavens collapsed and the earth broke apart!

  HSSB397: The pagoda within the deep abyss of flames

  With the Outer East Sea as the main battlefield, the human experts of the Eight Extremities World were currently at the most intense stage of their great battle against the invading Flame Devils.

  Accompanied by the unceasing eruptions of the Fire Pith Veins, the Flame Devils had gradually obtained a battlefield advantage, launching a counterattack, even unceasingly threatening regions outside of the Outer East Sea.

  Currently, with Yuan Zhengfeng and the other peak experts of the human race having detected the origin of eruption of the Fire Pith Veins, they had immediately rushed over.

  The peak experts of the Flame Devil race were also all congregated here, the two in the midst of a decisive battle above this region of sea.

  Yan Zhaoge remained on the outskirts, not advancing blindly.

  Where the core of the battlefield was, more than ten Martial Saint level fighters were currently clashing, even space itself seemingly already being broken through by them.

  Even the other nearby participants of this great battle were at least Essence Talisman Martial Grandmasters or the equivalent Flame Devil Kings. Otherwise, just the aftershocks of the clashes between the Martial Saints would be sufficient to pulverise and decimate them.

  It was like in the situation of the great tribulation of Jade Sea City previously, just that the situation was reversed from back then.

  At that time, Yuan Zhengfeng and An Qinglin had been the defensive side, having to split their attention to keep Jade Sea City safe under the attacks of Jing Zhong and the other Flame Devil Kings. Inevitably, their enemies had held the initiative.

  Now, it was a completely reversed situation. The Flame Devil race had to protect the core of the fire net that was located here, preventing Yuan Zhengfeng and the other human experts from damaging it.

  This way, in a situation whereby the difference in strength between the two sides was not great, the attacking side would inevitably hold the initiative without question.

  If a member of the defensive side focused fully on guarding, flaws being revealed in their own defences, there would the possibility of the offensive side capitalising on it, injuring that person.

  However, as time passed, the battlefield advantage with them as they had transformed the Outer East Sea into a fire sea, the Flame Devils would get more and more valiant amidst their battling.

  If the stalemate continued, the Flame Devils would only grow more and more arrogant.

  Their main targets were Yuan Zhengfeng, Huang Guanglie and the other Martial Saint experts.

  They didn’t care much about the Martial Grandmasters.

  Martial Grandmaster experts approached that deep abyss of flames, yet were unable to destroy it.

  Their great strength descended on the deep abyss of flames, causing fiery light to surge within, the Fire Pith Vein shaken. However, the sea of flames was not quelled.

  With their numerous attempts not seeing any results, the group of Martial Grandmasters had been resigned to assisting Yuan Zhengfeng and the others, attempting to assist them in breaking through the defensive lines of the Flame Devils.

  On the side of the Flame Devils, led by a few Flame Devil Kings, they were also keeping the Martial Saint experts tightly engaged in battle, thereby preventing them from approaching the deep abyss of flames.

  After carefully observing the battlefield for a moment, Yan Zhaoge attempted to contact the senior members of Broad Creed Mountain participating within.

  Yuan Zhengfeng immediately discovered him. However, currently clashing again with the Flame Devil King Wang Jing, the two rather evenly matched, he was unable to extricate himself from it.

  After a while, a figure pushed past the layers of flowing fire, coming before Yan Zhaoge.

  It was precisely Broad Creed Mountain’s East Sea First Seat Elder, the Cloud Soaring Lord Fu Enshu, having been sitting over the Outer East Sea for a long time before this.

  While Fu Enshu was a woman, having always been sharp and unyielding, she was currently filled with some additional baleful intent from the baptism of fire and blood.

  “Why have you run over here as well?” Fu Enshu asked, “Could it be that the person who destroyed a point of the fire net earlier was you?”

  “That’s right, it was me,” Yan Zhaoge said urgently, “Senior apprentice-aunt Fu, could you send me over to the core of the fire net?”

  Fu Enshu said, “The Flame Devils are mainly obstructing Master and the others with all their might.”

  She appraised Yan Zhaoge, “Could it be that you have some idea again? This would probably be different from the situation when you damaged that point region of stability earlier.”

  Yan Zhaoge said, “I have a method that I can try. While I cannot claim to be hundred percent confident, it should still work.”

  Fu Enshu fell into deep thought for a moment before she said resolutely, “Alright, I’ll believe you!”

  Saying thus, Fu Enshu alligned her index and middle fingers into a sword, stimulating her sword arts as majestic sword-lights rose up around her.

  The numerous streaks of sword-light condensed into swords, then formed a sword array, sweeping Yan Zhaoge into their midst, soaring into the skies as they shot off into the distance.

  Majestic and distant, the sword array resembled a world of its own, precisely being the Limitless Heavenly Sword of Broad Creed Mountain’s Three Supreme Arts.

  Fu Enshu shot through the air, leading Yan Zhaoge in penetrating through the great sea, speeding towards the deep abyss of flames at the depths of the sea.

  Flame Devils immediately surrounded them, obstructing the sword-light.

  Fu Enshu seemed not to have noticed them.

  A massive palm suddenly descended from the sky, resembling the collapse of the heavens as it directly dispersed the seawater down below, all Flame Devils under it meeting their demise.

  It was precisely Yuan Zhengfeng making a move, clearing the path for Yan Zhaoge and Fu Enshu.

  Ever since their few failed attempts earlier, it had always been Fu Enshu and the other Martial Grandmasters attempting to assist Yuan Zhengfeng and the other Martial Saint experts in making a breakthrough in the situation.

  Now, it had suddenly inversed, throwing the Flame Devils into disarray as Yuan Zhengfeng and Fu Enshu, the Master and disciple, successfully ripped open a path of advance.

  The Flame Devils’ current strategy was that Martial Saints could definitely not be let past, but Martial Grandmasters were still fine.

  Now, Fu Enshu’s sword-light shot straight inwards towards the depths of the sea.

  While they were temperamental and easily enraged, this sudden abnormal move of the human martial practitioners left the Flame Devils irritable and uneasy, as a Flame Devil King immediately wanted to move to obstruct Fu Enshu.

  “Victory and defeat lies in this venture!” Yuan Zhengfeng roared, his attacks like an unstoppable tide as he led the other Martial Saint experts in pressuring down with a momentum of topping mountains and overturning seas, forcing Jing Zhong and the other Flame Devil Kings to focus on them.

  However, Great Flame Devils turned and headed off in pursuit of Fu Enshu.

  Fu Enshu expanded her sword-light, letting Yan Zhaoge down as they arrived at the deep abyss of flames.

  She herself turned back,
wielding her sword as she domineeringly faced off against the incoming Great Flame Devils.

  Seeing Yan Zhaoge’s figure, a Great Flame Devil revealed a frenzied, furious expression as it abruptly shot over.

  However, it was met by a heavy, indistinct sword-light, nearly running it through.

  A sword in hand, her white clothes fluttering about, Fu Enshu resembled an ocean-stabilising divine needle as she remained above the deep abyss of flames, obstructing the approaching Flame Devils.

  Currently, every second was critical. Yan Zhaoge did not look back as he sped towards the entrance of the deep abyss with his greatest possible speed.

  Opening his Shadow Shrinking Pouch, nine ice shards appeared within Yan Zhaoge’s hands. Throwing them out, they hovered, floating amidst the sea water.

  Next, Yan Zhaoge punched out, the aura-qi from his fist-intent guiding the ice shards in forming a formation.

  Streams of ice-blue radiance flickered, countless spirit patterns flickering as they came together to form a massive spirit formation.

  The nine ice shards were established about the boundary of the formation, lighting up as they formed nine white pillars of light, supporting the formation together.

  With a wave of Yan Zhaoge’s hands, all his limited remaining Devil Shattering Ice Talismans landed within the centre of the formation.

  He punched out once more, the formation shaking as guarded by the nine pillars of white light, it fell within the deep abyss of flames below.

  The deep abyss shuddered slightly, the fiery light within flickering, but no other changes could be seen within.

  Originally still holding on to some anticipation, upon seeing this, the human martial practitioners inevitably revealed disappointed expressions.

  They could only regather their spirits, shifting back to their earlier strategy of assisting Yuan Zhengfeng, Huang Guanglie and the others in breaking through the defensive lines of the Flame Devils with all their might.

  His method not being as effective as it had been with that point region of stability previously, Yan Zhaoge’s expression was not flustered in the least as he only gazed very earnestly within the deep abyss of flames below.

  Amidst a patch of fiery light, Yan Zhaoge faintly saw a certain something.

  Something that was completely out of line with the surrounding environment.

  A small, crimson pagoda.

  HSSB398: Yan Zhaoge controls a dragon

  While that small crimson pagoda was located amidst blazing fire, it emanated a quiet and peaceful feel.

  The blazing fire surrounding it no longer seemed that scary.

  However, it was precisely because of the existence of that small pagoda that countless streams of red light surged upwards, trapping in place the Ice Abyss Domain that Yan Zhaoge had released into the sea of flames.

  The spirit formation supported by nine white pillars of light hovered above the sea of flames, unable to descend.

  While the small pagoda was separated from him by the deep abyss of flames, with Yan Zhaoge unable to carefully analyse it, he could still feel the profound concept that existed within.

  This small red pagoda seemed to have merged as one with the Fire Pith Vein, neither being separate from the other.

  It did not have to be asked for it to be known that for the Flame Devil race to have so easily shaken the flow of the earth veins of the Eight Extremities World, this object must have played an important role.

  The small red pagoda, currently being connected to the Fire Pith Vein, caused the attacks of Martial Grandmasters to not serve much use.

  Yan Zhaoge’s attempt to interfere using the Cold Abyss Domain was also blocked by the small red pagoda.

  “No wonder they are only guarding against the Martial Saint experts like Grand Master,” Seeing this scene, Yan Zhaoge secretly nodded.

  After that, he felt strong killing intent pressure down on him from overhead.

  While the Flame Devil King Cheng Huang had already been killed by Yuan Zhengfeng, Yan Zhaoge’s sudden appearance had still drawn the attention of many of the Flame Devils.

  Language unique to the Flame Devils resounded in the form of heaving guttural, manic roars, their meaning unclear. Immediately, many Great Flame Devils, no longer caring about the other Martial Grandmasters of the human race, swarmed over towards Yan Zhaoge like a horde of bees.

  Fu Enshu held her sword level before her chest, showing no fear whatsoever against the onrushing, aggressive horde of Great Flame Devils as she went forward on her own initiative to meet them.

  As the Martial Grandmasters of Broad Creed Mountain and Jade Sea City saw this, they hurriedly descended, helping Fu Enshu to attack these Great Flame Devils.

  After hesitating for a moment, the Martial Grandmaster experts of Infinite Boundless Mountain and Turbid Wave Pavilion also descended, the two sides remaining engaged in battle.

  While the situation before them was not optimistic, the numerous miracles that Yan Zhaoge had created in the face of danger in the past let them choose to believe in this youth.

  The martial practitioners of the Sacred Sun Clan and the Heavenly Thunder Hall continued helping Huang Guanglie and Shen Li, hoping that their own Martial Saints would be able to break through the defensive lines of the Flame Devil Kings.

  Of all the peak experts of the Eight Extremities World here, due to environmental factors, the one whose performance was currently the most dazzling was the East Coming Martial Saint Huang Guanglie.

  Amidst a sea of flames, the Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners were like the Flame Devils, more valiant the more they fought.

  Huang Guanglie, at the second level of the Martial Saint realm, attacked domineeringly and rampantly, appearing even more fearsome than the Flame Devils.

  However, the Flame Devils kept a close eye on Huang Guanglie, unceasingly obstructing his advance.

  In the battle of the Martial Saint level fighters, the Flame Devils blocked the human experts with all their might.

  In the battle of Martial Grandmaster level fighters, it was precisely the opposite. With Fu Enshu at their head, the Martial Grandmasters blocked the descending Great Flame Devils with all their might.

  Originally already having been geographically disadvantaged, without the support of those of the Sacred Sun Clan and the Heavenly Thunder Hall, the Martial Grandmasters were instantly left struggling against the attack of the Flame Devils that were like an unstoppable tide.

  Some Great Flame Devils began breaking through their defensive lines, shooting towards the deep abyss of flames amongst the numerous mountains at the depths of the sea.

  Fu Enshu’s sword-light flashed, resembling a long rainbow as it streaked through the sea, descending as it completely sliced off half a leg of that Great Flame Devil which resembled a crab.

  That Great Flame Devil howled madly, a hole suddenly opening in its chest from which a thick fire pillar spurted out, sending Fu Enshu’s sword-light to the brink of near collapse.

  At the same time, another Great Flame Devil chased over, targeting Fu Enshu’s back.

  Fu Enshu’s sword-light moved in a circle, a circle of light appearing which resembled a great door to a whole new world.

  It was as though a pouch which could gobble up the heavens and the earth had opened, inviting the lord into the coffin.

  The heavy, majestic sword-intent within pressured the Great Flame Devil to halt, lest it walk itself right into the trap.

  However, the next moment, this Great Flame Devil spun abruptly, arriving to Fu Enshu’s side, continuing to lunge towards Yan Zhaoge down below.

  Fu Enshu moved her sword to obstruct it, but who knew that this had been a feint of the part of the Great Flame Devil, whose true target was actually her.

  “Ha!” Fu Enshu stared at it, not evading or dodging in the least, facing attack with attack as she stabbed out with a sword.

  She was injure
d around her waist by the Flame Devil’s claw, but her sword also ran this Great Flame Devil through.

  However, on the other side, the attack of the Flame Devils grew more and more urgent, beginning to break through the defensive lines established by Fu Enshu and the others and descending towards the deep abyss of flames down below.

  By the entrance of the deep abyss, Yan Zhaoge’s mind was currently highly focused. Even if a sabre or a sword pierced through his body, he would also completely ignore it.

  His attention was currently focused on that small red pagoda, focused on that Fire Pith Vein before him.

  “I originally still wanted to bring this thing back to the clan, but now it looks like I will have to take most of it for myself,” Yan Zhaoge exhaled, “While it will not be a waste, perhaps some more effort will be needed.”

  After having settled on a plan, Yan Zhaoge immediately opened his Shadow Shrinking Pouch.

  Within the Shadow Shrinking Pouch, no longer suppressed by the pillar of the Divine Palace, that true dragon’s body sealed within the ice pillar instantly began acting up as the ice pillar flew out on its own accord.

  As the stone pillar and the ice pillar left the Shadow Shrinking Pouch, they increased in size, instantly becoming massive.

  Yan Zhaoge’s entire body’s aura-qi surged, all turning hot before he extended Heaven Shocker, pulling back its bowstring once.

  As the bowstring shook, the purple light of thunder intermingled with the blazing crimson flames, together slamming mightily down on the ice pillar within which was sealed a true ice dragon’s body!

  The ice pillar began to break apart, the true dragon’s body within shaking as an indistinct dragon’s roar resounded.

  The dead ice dragon had not revived.

  However, the spirituality contained within made one feel as though a true, living dragon had descended into the human realm.

  At the vast, mighty authority of a dragon, whether it was a human or a Flame Devil, all had to look twice at it!
