The Flame Devil Kings let out ear-shattering howls in unison as the blazing fire congregated within the air once more, about to surge again towards Jade Sea City.
Now amidst dense, cold, quiet white light, the Extreme Yin Crown rose slowly into the air.
Where the moonlight touched, all was cool between the heavens and the earth as the downward momentum of the congregated blazing fire actually also eased slightly.
Taking advantage of this moment, Song Wuliang quickly stimulated the Jade Sea Limitless Grand Formation. The grand formation circulated and closed back inwards, torrential seawater obscuring the sky as it enveloped East Dragon Island and Jade Sea City once more, keeping the attacks of the Flame Devils outside at bay.
Illuminated by the moonlight, her face pale as a sheet, Meng Wan kept the Extreme Yin Crown.
The one who had been under the greatest pressure, Jade Sea City’s Lord Song Wuliang, had a mouthful of blood spurt directly out of his mouth from the backlash.
Beside him, the faces of Old Man Mo, Huang Guanglie, An Qinglin and Chu Yan also flashed intermittently with red and green as their qi and blood were thrown into disarray.
Having yet to enter the Martial Saint realm, Infinite Boundless Mountain’s Chief Chu Yan had fresh blood oozing from the corner of his mouth. His hand held no object, the black clump of light manifested of the Heaven Cleaving Axe already having vanished. Still, his earlier axe-wielding right hand was currently tremoring unceasingly.
Jing Zhong and the other Flame Devil Kings also didn’t have it good, but their injuries left them even more rash and furious.
Having allowed Huang Guanglie and An Qinglin to successfully join up with the defenders, they felt extremely angered and humiliated as they launched furious attacks like fire once again!
Song Wuliang inhaled deeply, his complexion having improved greatly as he now wielded the Jade Sea Pill Heart Sword and the Jade Sea Limitless Grand Formation in meeting the enemy once more.
Old Man Mo, Huang Guanglie and the others did the same as well.
At this moment, with them having joined forces, relying on the geographical advantage provided to them by the Jade Sea Limitless Grand Formation, it became easier for them to stand against the host of Flame Devil Kings.
Because of their numerical inferiority, the human martial practitioners were placed at a disadvantage. However, as they focused on defending, they were still able to hold on.
It was finally no longer like earlier when it had seemed as though the place might soon easily collapse at any moment.
“If we can hold on till Yuan Zhengfeng and Shen Li re-seal the situation in the Earth Domain and hurry over to reinforce us, we will then be able to plan for our counterattack. This time, we definitely have to make those Flame Devils know what’s good for them!”
“If they are unable to take down Jade Sea City after a long time and decide to manoeuvre past it to attack elsewhere, what should we do?”
While resisting the attacks of the Flame Devils, Song Wuliang and the others exchanged their opinions.
Now, however, the expressions of Old Man Mo and Huang Guanglie both changed as they looked towards the east.
Soon after, Song Wuliang’s and An Qinglin’s expressions changed as well. The three Sacred Artifacts, the Extreme Yin Crown, the Jade Sea Pill Heart Sword and the Heaven Cleaving Axe, shook together.
Meng Wan and Chu Yan were greatly startled before they felt an extremely terrifying aura appear in the distance, next arriving in the air above East Dragon Island in an instant!
A heaven-shocking, earth-shaking roar resounded as the screen of water enveloping Jade Sea City shuddered intensely, seemingly about to shatter just like that.
Without the slightest hesitation, Huang Guanglie and the others combined all their powers once more, erupting with their greatest, most ferocious strength!
The majestic pillar of light swept along the limitless jade sea as it shot into the skies once more.
In the sky above, the sea of flames split apart to reveal a massive figure which stomped downwards!
Old Man Mo appeared grave as he had never been before as he let out a long breath, “Great Flame Devil King!”
History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 473: Yan Di leaves seclusion!
HSSB473: ??????????
The experts of the human race launched a joint attack from Jade Sea City, with the Extreme Yang Fist and the Jade Sea Formless Sword as the core, the Heaven Cleaving Axe and the Flowing Cloud Illusory Sword assisting them and the Painting Saint Old Man Mo coordinating and boosting all of these.
The vigorous power formed of toughness and softness as well as yin and yang coexisting erupted completely in an instant, rising unceasingly in strength as it shot upwards.
Jing Zhong and the other Flame Devil Kings let out terrifying howls in unison, blazing fire congregating.
The two forces met within the air, clashing intensely.
Now, a massive foot stomped down from above Jade Sea City. Instantly, the very sky seemed as though it was collapsing!
The faces of Song Wuliang and the others turned ashen.
Infinite, boundless violent flames seemed to solidify at this moment as they agglomerated unceasingly at the bottom of that massive foot, fierce and oppressive.
As the current oldest person of the Eight Extremities World who had personally experienced the first and most intense invasion of the Flame Devils in the past, Old Man Mo’s face was currently sunken as water.
“Great Flame Devil King!”
Actually, while not having experienced that great battle, everyone here was already directly feeling it firsthand!
The terrifying force pressured downwards unceasingly, shattering the golden light and the jade sea.
Huang Guanglie, Song Wuliang and the others roared in unison, vigorous true essence congregating and roiling upwards, transforming into infinite, frenzied tides which obstructed the descending force.
That massive figure in the sky was now revealed to all.
It seemed as massive as a mountain peak, its lower body resembling a bull, its upper body resembling a tiger, a massive bull’s head sitting upon its shoulders with curved horns visible on it. Its entire body was filled with patterns of flame, blazing fierily.
Its crimson eyes stared manically and viciously at the Jade Sea Limitless Grand Formation down below.
A deafening roar resounded as the Jade Sea Limitless Grand Formation mightily broke apart!
As the water screen which filled the entire sky was ripped apart, it descended like a torrential flood in the direction of East Dragon Island and Jade Sea City down below.
However, before the torrential waters could land on the ground, they had already been turned into steam by the blazing fire.
A dark, massive figure suddenly shot out from the dense white clouds of steam.
The one who was closest, Infinite Boundless Mountain’s Chief Chu Yan, was virtually unable to react, relying completely on the spiritual guidance of the Sacred Artifact itself as he raised the Heaven Cleaving Axe up and cleaved outwards.
A terrifying fissure opened within the air, yet was instantly filled up by the blazing fire.
Incinerated by flames, those spatial tears actually healed.
The next moment, Chu Yan and the Heaven Cleaving Axe flew backwards together!
The Heaven Cleaving Axe was jolted out of Chu Yan’s hands as the black glow surrounding his entire body directly turned dim.
Blood splattered through the air as the face of the Chief of Infinite Boundless Mountain was pale as a sheet.
By the side, the clear moonlight of the Extreme Yin Crown was rippling ceaselessly like water.
Enveloped by its radiance, Meng Wan appeared even paler as blood was oozing out from the corner of her mouth as well.
Earlier, it was with her assistance that Chu Yan had barely survived. Even so, Chu Yan had very nearly been slain on the spot while the Heaven Cleaving Axe had been gravely wounded as well.
He did not pursue as before him, Huang Guanglie, Old Man Mo, Song Wuliang and the others had already combined forces in attacking once more!
Huang Guanglie punched outwards, golden light shining as all turned bright between the heavens and earth for a great distance all around.
The large golden sun in the sky overhead seemed like it had descended from the nine heavens as it currently illuminated the surrounding area.
While the Jade Sea Limitless Grand Formation had been broken, Song Wuliang wielded the Jade Sea Pill Heart Sword, the sword-light formless, resembling multiple huge waves which shot towards that Great Flame Devil King.
While he was currently still at the first level of the Martial Saint realm, wielding the Jade Sea Pill Heart Sword, Song Wuliang was clearly much stronger than Chu Yan with the Heaven Cleaving Axe had been.
The integrated sword-intent and the Sacred Artifact unceasingly supported his attacks as the formless sword-light appeared endless yet was hard to discern.
Elder Mo’s expression was calm and silent. This time, he no longer drew within the air.
Multiple lines of blood shot out from the acupoints of his entire body. Guided by his true essence within the air, they transformed into a painting of blood.
As the Painting Saint killed, he would draw a painting with the blood of his enemies that, condensed within the air, would not disappear for a long time. This was one of the most terrifying legends of the Eight Extremities World.
Now, he was painting with his essence blood, painting a majestic, catastrophic scene of the heavens collapsing and the earth breaking apart!
True space seemed to merge together with Old Man Mo’s painting at this moment, also possessing the momentum of the heavens collapsing and the earth breaking apart.
That Great Flame Devil King seemed to chuckle strangely before a howl like the explosion of thunderbolts resounded.
It struck out with its claws, its left claw aimed towards Huang Guanglie while its right claw targeted Old Man Mo.
Blazing fire agglomerated on its left claw, resembling a cage which enveloped Huang Guanglie within.
Huang Guanglie’s tyrannical The Sun Comes East was solidly trapped by that cage, actually unable to erupt.
The great golden sun roared, clashing with the flames before it finally split apart and exploded.
As all-encompassing golden light and crimson flames flew together, Huang Guanglie retreated with a muffled groan.
The Great Flame Devil King’s right claw viciously targeted Old Man Mo’s painting of blood.
The heavens and earth that had already been showing signs of collapse now broke apart completely!
However, the Great Flame Devil King seemed unaffected, its claw seemingly having penetrated through space as it still grabbed towards Old Man Mo.
Meanwhile, facing Song Wuliang’s sword-light, it opened its mouth and spat out clumps of flame.
Infinite flames transformed into countless runes within the air, all composed of flames and leaping about unceasingly.
The millions of runes came together to from a sea of flames, extinguishing Song Wuliang’s sword-light.
As the boundless sea of flames expanded, it was even more vast and majestic than Jade Sea City’s Lord Song Wuliang’s formless, endless sword-light!
After easily breaking through the full-powered attacks of the trio, the Great Flame Devil King strode forward.
It trod within the air with its feet that were like the hooves of bulls, roiling flames instantly extending towards its surroundings in all directions wherever it walked.
The infinite waters of the Jade Sea shrunk back from it, the heavens and earth turning into a sea of flames.
While the Fire Pith Veins of the area had not been triggered, while the affected area was much smaller than before, at this moment, wherever this Great Flame Devil King stepped, the waters of the sea actually seemed like it was being cooked by blazing fire just like it had been back then!
The massive bull’s head lowered slightly, the horns on it pushing outwards as explosions seemed to resound within the sky.
Jade Sea City’s Lord Song Wuliang was instantly wounded, the sword-light of the Jade Sea Pill Heart Sword also dimming somewhat.
The Great Flame Devil King clawed forward, clawing the heavens and grabbing the earth.
Huang Guanglie and Old Man Mo fell into continuous retreat, finding it hard to resist those attacks as blood trickled out from the corner of both their mouths.
On the other end, An Qinglin, Meng Wan, Chu Yan and the martial practitioners of Jade Sea City were all critically pressured by the other Flame Devil Kings!
That Great Flame Devil King chuckled strangely, its massive frame descending on East Dragon Island.
Accompanied by him landing, East Dragon Island instantly began to completely split apart!
Jade Sea City that sat on the island resembled a sandcastle against the tides of the sea as it was on the brink of collapse.
Old Man Mo said bitterly, “This place is going to fall!”
Everyone had bitter expressions on their faces.
Not only was this place going to fall, everyone here apart from Old Man Mo and Huang Guanglie basically had no chance of escaping at all!
It was even uncertain whether the two of them might be able to successfully break out of this encirclement and escape with their lives.
Song Wuliang looked at Jade Sea City and East Dragon Island with a pained expression on his face, gripping his sword as his gaze remained resolute.
All the Jade Sea City martial practitioners felt despair as they gazed at that massive frame that made it seem as though a devilish divinity had descended into this world.
Suddenly, they discovered that that Great Flame Devil King had a look of surprise within its massive bloodred eyes as it gazed towards the distance.
Taken aback, everyone unconsciously gazed over.
A streak of purple light suddenly shone by the horizon, the roar of a dragon resounding.
The purple light grew greater and greater till finally it resembled a heavenly pillar as it split the boundless sea of flames apart with a momentum that seemed able to cleave through the very heavens and the earth!
Amidst the imposing sabre-light emerged a man, arriving close by them in an instant.
While he appeared not much older than thirty, his brows were already white as they were speckled with some bits of frost.
However, his entire person carried no feeling of agedness at all, instead being sharp and edged as well as intractable and domineering to the extreme, resembling a sabre that could hack the heavens apart!
Seeing the newcomer, everyone was more stunned as compared to joyful, “Yan Di!”
“You’ve Transcended Mortality and entered Sainthood?”
History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 474: The current strongest of the Eight Extremities World!
HSSB474: The current strongest of the Eight Extremities World!
Transcending Mortality, Entering Sainthood.
These four simple words seemed like a heavenly gulf.
Even before the Great Calamity, Transcending Mortality and entering Sainthood had been a very difficult thing.
Meanwhile, in the current Eight Extremities World of after the Great Calamity, there had only been six Martial Saints in total.
Yan Di, known by the people of the world as Yan Wudi, had never tasted a single defeat at the hands of martial practitioners of the same cultivation level since the start as he had presided over all of his peers.
Even opponents with higher cultivation bases than him had been inferior to him as well.
Close to two years ago, having entered the Transcending Mortality stage, there had no longer been an opponent for him amongst Martial Grandmasters at all.
In the eye
s of the world, the Transcending Mortality Martial Grandmaster Yan Di could only seek out an opponent amongst Martial Saints.
No one doubted Yan Di’s ability to step into the Martial Saint realm. In fact, no one even doubted that he would become the youngest ever recorded Martial Saint of the Eight Extremities World following the Great Calamity.
However, even those who thought most highly of him would never have expected that just two short years later, Yan Di would already have traversed that heavenly gulf which countless were unable to cross for their entire lifetimes, Transcending Mortality and entering Sainthood!
Old Man Mo, Huang Guanglie, Song Wuliang and An Qinglin all suspected their senses for a time, feeling that they must have seen wrongly.
“Roar!”
A heaven-shocking, earth-shaking roar shook the area as all-encompassing flames congregated within the sky.
The Great Flame Devil King unleashed both its claws, the light of fire instantly rampaging across the sky as blazing fire seemed to have burnt through space itself, creating terrifying fissures where it passed.
Enveloped by the flames, the heavens and the earth seemed close to shattering.
The experts of the human race all felt a chill within their hearts as they regained their wits.
Their opponent had already answered their doubts with its actions.
In the eyes of that Great Flame Devil King, of all the human experts present here, it was Yan Di who posed the greatest threat!
Faced with the blazing fire that split the heavens and the earth, Yan Di did not falter as he remained fearless.
He raised the sabre within his hands that flickered with purple light before chopping downwards, the sky above his head sliding with his blow.
A majestic sabre-intent that was immeasurable and without peer collided with the ferocious blazing fire, both beginning to shatter unceasingly together!
The shattered sabre-qi as well as blazing fire within the air turned into numerous hurricanes, sweeping along the flames as terrifying storms of flame were formed, numbering in the thousands as they swirled within the sky.
The Great Flame Devil King trod within the air, lowering its head as it charged towards Yan Di with its two horns facing him!
