History's Strongest Senior Brother c1-1474

  The red glow vanished, white light appearing.

  Where the cold, white sword-qi of the Immortal Ending Sword passed, it possessed the momentum of breaking bamboo as those layers of formation instantly began to collapse all at once.

  Yan Zhaoge flipped the heavens with a palm, instantly dissipating all those shattered spirit patterns into the wind.

  While the Cyclone Turtle beneath Daoist Shi felt fear, it still rose into the air and helped Daoist Shi to resist the incoming attacks with its heavy shell.

  Reddish-black light flickered, transforming into mists of light which came together to form a massive turtle shell barrier that possessed shocking defensive power.

  Yet, as Yan Zhaoge’s palm descended, the turtle shell barrier was instantly densely riddled with cracks.

  “Open!” Yan Zhaoge roared, again exerting force with his palm as a majestic force which reversed causality and effect and overturned the heavens and the earth pressured that turtle shell barrier to the point of shattering bit by bit.

  An incomparably terrifying Cyclic Heavenly Seal slammed mightily down upon the back of the Cyclone Turtle.

  The sturdy turtle shell trembled, not immediately breaking apart.

  However, that Cyclone Turtle emitted an agonised wail as blood spurted out of its seven orifices!

  Yan Zhaoge laughed loudly, flying up into the air as he no longer paid that old turtle any heed.

  King Xuancheng now calmed himself and sped over. While the Five Fires Seven Fowl Armour was greatly damaged as it was unfit for further battle, he had to ignore this as he hurried over to save Daoist Shi.

  Without the assistance of formations, Daoist Shi’s strength was extremely limited as he might be weaker than even the likes of He Dongcheng and Gu Zhang.

  Yan Zhaoge laughed strangely, not accepting King Xuancheng’s challenge as he expanded the Immortal Trapping Sword, red sword-light flickering as he was elsewhere in an instant.

  Meanwhile, Yan Di’s terrifying sabre attack which cleaved the heavens and split the earth apart was already frenziedly crushing down upon King Xuancheng and Daoist Shi with the weight of Mount Tai.

  Yan Zhaoge’s figure flickered as he helped Yan Di to block the Star Plucking Practitioner, Guan Lide.

  “There is no Immortal Artifact. Still, there are other things that we have to welcome you with,” Looking at the Star Plucking Practitioner Guan Lide before him, Yan Zhaoge chuckled.

  Guan Lide gazed at Yan Zhaoge, “So you are Yan Zhaoge? Extraordinary indeed. Still, you are still far from sufficient to grasp the Immortal Artifact left behind by the Dim Radiant Emperor.”

  He opened up his palm, waving his fingers about as they resembled countless stars streaking across the sky.

  Each of these stars seemed to possess their own unique rhythm and trajectory as it was intricate to the extreme.

  While Guan Lide was pressuring him with his aura based on his superior cultivation base right after they started clashing, his martial arts did not seem to be so reckless and domineering.

  His supreme martial art, the Star Plucking Palm, possessed a majestic aura alongside intricate acuity.

  Currently, as those stars circulated, the space that Guan Lide was in seemed as if it had transformed into the illusory space of the universe.

  “That person just now who cultivated in the Aeon Light Heavenly Scripture indeed possessed strength beyond the norm. It would not have been easy for me to defeat him as well.”

  Guan Lide said coldly, “Still, if you think that you being able to kill him means that you can defeat me too, you would really be thinking too highly of yourself.”

  “I will not be suppressed by your Immortal Trapping Sword.”

  Yan Zhaoge sought to strike the Dawn Star Prime Essence Crown on Guan Lide’s head with his dark green bamboo branch. Yet, the latter’s figure became very difficult to grasp.

  The red glow of the Immortal Trapping Sword flickered all around. However, that all-encompassing starlight combined into a single entity that repelled Yan Zhaoge.

  Shooting stars plummeted from amongst the sea of stars, enveloping the heavens and covering the earth as they descended towards Yan Zhaoge.

  Yan Zhaoge’s sword art switched from the Immortal Trapping Sword to the Immortal Ending Sword as where the white sword-qi passed, all those meteors were chopped down.

  Hanging high in the sky, the Extreme Yang Seal seemed like the centre of the universe even amidst this sea of stars.

  Still, amidst the shifting of the starry sky, golden starlight that was bright to the extreme surged, obstructing the path of the Extreme Yang Seal. It was precisely the radiance of Guan Lide’s high-grade Sacred Artifact, the Dawn Star Prime Essence Crown.

  Guan Lide’s voice seemed to resound everywhere at once, “If that bamboo cane of yours is unable to strike at my Dawn Star Prime Essence Crown, and even with a supreme treasure like the Extreme Yang Seal, you are still unable to fully unleash its power, what can you possibly do to me?”

  Amidst his words, the all-encompassing sea of stars was gradually dyed golden.

  Where the golden meteor shower passed, space itself was entirely riddled with wounds.

  This was the immense, domineering might of a late Immortal Bridge Martial Saint unleashing the power of a high-grade Sacred Artifact.

  While it was a wide area attack, any single one of those golden meteors would be sufficient to slay an expert of the seventh level of the Martial Saint realm.

  Facing such a large scale meteor shower, if mid Immortal Bridge Martial Saints did not possess high-grade Sacred Artifacts, even they would be unable to resist its might!

  “Seeing how you and your father are both geniuses favoured by the heavens and have it hard cultivating, I will point out a clear path for you,” Guan Lide said mildly, “Cultivating in the Immortal Exterminating Four Swords, there is no place in the World beyond Worlds that will accept you. Hurry and hand the Immortal Artifact over, and then you can hurry up and flee.”

  Yan Zhaoge laughed, bringing the Extreme Yang Seal back above his head and extending a screen of sunlight to block the mighty golden meteor shower.

  The two forces which were both tough and blazing to the extreme collided unceasingly.

  Yan Zhaoge expanded the Immortal Ending Sword, coordinating with the Extreme Yang Seal in fending of Guan Lide’s attacks.

  “Those who dare invade my Broad Creed Mountain today-none of you should think about leaving,” Yan Zhaoge smiled, “As for whether I cultivate in the Immortal Exterminating Four Swords, is that still important?”

  He executed the Yin Yang Finger with his left hand, diverting the descending golden meteors to strike at the nearby King Xuancheng and Daoist Shi.

  There, having lost the Five Fires Seven Fowl Armour and the Cyclone Turtle, the two ancestors of the Grand Xuan Dynasty were already finding it hard to hold on against Yan Di’s heaven-shocking, earth-shaking attacks!

  The Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation swept back the heavens and the earth, seeking to cut off even their paths of retreat!

  Guan Lide rebuked, “You junior who knows not the height of the heavens and the boundlessness of the earth!”

  Enveloped by his palm, the stars circulated as they resisted Yan Zhaoge’s Yin Yang Finger.

  This was a variation of his Star Plucking Palm that shifted and moved the stars. It possessed similar miraculous principles to the Yin Yang Palm to some extent.

  While it was inferior to the profundities of the Yin Yang Finger, Guan Lide’s cultivation base far surpassed Yan Zhaoge’s as he was able to control the myriad stars to resist the Yin Yang Finger.

  At the same time, as the river of stars circulated, it actually seemed about to shake the Extreme Yang Seal, causing its position to deviate away from the top of Yan Zhaoge’s head.

  A dense sea of stars spun amidst the air, transforming into a massive vortex in which starlight glowed brightly.

  Where the vortex passed, it devoured and destroyed everything, sweep
ing through the heavens and the earth!

  Time and space seemed to have lost all meaning at this moment.

  Guan Lide of the ninth level of the Martial Saint realm went all out with a full-powered strike now as he sought to take down Yan Zhaoge as quickly as he could.

  Otherwise, when Yan Di had taken care of King Xuancheng and Daoist Shi, he would be able to come over and combine forces with Yan Zhaoge to deal with him.

  Guan Lide was already able to see how after forcibly resisting a spear of King Xuancheng’s with his Five Element Deific Immortal Body, wielding the Heavenly Dragon Sabre, Yan Di viciously chopped down on King Xuancheng’s body!

  “But…” Guan Lide simultaneously pushed his hands forward, pressuring down together as that terrifying vortex formed of a sea of stars mightily descended towards Yan Zhaoge’s head, “I am faster!”

  Arriving above Yan Zhaoge’s head, the vortex mightily exploded!

  It was as though the myriad stars had congregated, becoming distorted to the extreme as an existence that devoured everything amidst space before they were destroyed all at once!

  That shocking power actually also seemed vaguely to somewhat contain the terrifying momentum of the extinguishing power of chaos as a great explosion occurred within the universe!

  A cold light flickered in Yan Zhaoge’s eyes.

  He chuckled, “There is no escape for you now.”

  Yan Zhaoge directly kept the dark green bamboo cane, simultaneously extending his palms above his head.

  History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 883: Challenging the Star Plucking Practitioner!

  HSSB883: Challenging the Star Plucking Practitioner!

  Between Yan Zhaoge’s palms, light and darkness intersected, chaos vaguely appearing.

  At the same time, streams of white light shot into the skies.

  The power of Broad Creed Mountain’s Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation was completely concentrated on Yan Zhaoge.

  Bolstered by the formation, Yan Zhaoge used the Dim Radiant Twelve Arts with the Peerless Heavenly Scripture concealed within, joining his palms to block the explosion of the vortex.

  At this moment, chaos was retracted.

  Everything collapsed inwards towards a single point before returning to nothingness.

  Guan Lide’s figure was temporarily locked in place for an instant.

  His palm force was entangled with Yan Zhaoge’s true essence, unable to advance or retreat.

  While this was just for an instant, Guan Lide immediately sensed that something was wrong.

  However, before he could change his stance, purple light suddenly appeared within Yan Zhaoge’s eyes!

  Yan Zhaoge gazed coldly at Guan Lide, the purple light of thunder first appearing within his right eye.

  Followed by his left eye.

  Then his entire body.

  Light seemed to have abruptly dimmed between the heavens and the earth at this moment.

  There were only thunderbolts that shocked the heavens which mightily erupted at this instant!

  It was as though infinite, unquantifiable thunderbolts were confined to that one instant, all blazing, all erupting, all released at once!

  It was precisely An Instant’s Thunder!

  At this moment, it was not just the power of the Eye of the Thunder Emperor fragment concealed in Yan Zhaoge’s right eye that was released completely.

  Alongside that, the vigorous true essence of Yan Zhaoge himself also blazed entirely at this instant!

  With Yan Zhaoge’s current cultivation base, erupting the power of the Eye of the Thunder Emperor fragment which he possessed already did not take much out of him.

  After the eruption of power of the Sacred Artifact fragment, it would again descend into slumber. However, Yan Zhaoge’s own strength would not be affected.

  Now, however, it was not just that Sacred Artifact fragment but also Yan Zhaoge himself who was utilising An Instant’s Thunder for a full-powered strike!

  Even qi returning techniques like those of the Yin Yang Heavenly Scripture, the Taiji Yin Yang Palm and Finger Flicking Shocking Thunder were unable to replenish such a merciless eruption within a short period of time.

  Following this attack, Yan Zhaoge’s essence, qi and spirit would be deteriorating greatly.

  With this as the cost, he had unleashed his ultimate, most powerful attack!

  Terrifying thunderbolts formed a majestic light pillar that was dazzling to the extreme as at that one instant, it existed as the sole entity of brightness between the heavens and the earth!

  The power of the Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation was completely concentrated on Yan Zhaoge.

  Yan Zhaoge abruptly switched his palm to the Immortal Ending Sword.

  With the help of the formation and the eruption of An Instant’s Thunder, Yan Zhaoge was able to switch stances just that half step faster than Guan Lide.

  However, just this half step was already the distance between the far-reaching ends of the earth!

  The terrifying sword intent which extinguished all things with the end of all creation manifested.

  The blazing power of an Instant’s Thunder was completely transformed into the sword qi of the Immortal Ending Sword at this moment.

  The dense white sword-qi suffused the heavens and earth.

  Executed without reservation, this was the strongest sword that Yan Zhaoge had unleashed ever since having mastered the Immortal Ending Sword Manual!

  The infinite sword-qi was retracted, condensing into a single beam.

  A beam whose power was incomparably focused!

  A beam which was even faster than ordinary sword-qi of the Immortal Ending Sword!

  While Guan Lide was already able to vaguely sense this, he was still half a step too slow in the end.

  The brutal sword-qi directly penetrated through the vortex formed of a sea of stars that was in the midst of exploding above Yan Zhaoge’s head, shooting on upwards and directly stabbing Guan Lide!

  Guan Lide raised a hand to block it. Yet, that sword-qi continued on with the momentum of breaking bamboo, penetrating straight through that palm which seemed able to pluck the stars and grasp the moon!

  Guan Lide’s tragic moan resounded between the heavens and the earth.

  However, no blood spurted out at all.

  The flesh and blood where his wound was had been cleanly vaporised by the sword qi with nothing at all left behind!

  The white sword-qi’s momentum persisted as after piercing through Guan Lide’s palm, it pierced right through his chest!

  Guan Lide grit his teeth, stimulating his true essence with specks of starlight appearing and congregating around his wounds as he sought to temporarily suppress his injuries for now.

  Yet, as the starlight came into contact with the wounds created by the white sword-qi, it instantly dissipated as the area where the wounds were resembled broken porcelain, expanding slowly but surely into the surrounding areas!

  Guan Lide was shocked and enraged as he wielded his Dawn Star Prime Sun Crown, releasing a streak of bright golden starlight which targeted Yan Zhaoge directly.

  While Yan Zhaoge was extremely weakened now, he still wielded the Extreme Yang Seal in helping him to block the attack of the Dawn Star Prime Sun Crown.

  Seeing this, Guan Lide was caught between fury and despondence.

  Never would he have thought that he, a lofty late Immortal Bridge Martial Saint, might actually eat such a stifling loss at the hands of Yan Zhaoge.

  However, he dared not linger now.

  His current injuries were grave indeed. And meanwhile, after slaying King Xuancheng, Yan Di had just inflicted a heavy injury on Daoist Shi!

  While Daoist Shi was still able to establish other formations besides the Heaven Earth Divination Formation, they were still hard pressed to quell Yan Di’s domineering, unparalleled power.

  Without the Cyclone Turtle to protect him, it was even harder for Daoist Shi to exert his means.

  Yan Di was similarly p
aying attention to the situation over on Yan Zhaoge’s side.

  After inflicting a heavy injury on Daoist Shi with a sabre, he took a deep breath before shooting into the skies, coming to assist Yan Zhaoge in bringing down Guan Lide.

  The sabres descended in an endless stream like infinite tides as the heavily injured Guan Lide was unable to extricate himself, being forced to rely on his Dawn Star Prime Sun Crown to defend.

  This high-grade Sacred Artifact of his was good at offence and weak at defence in the first place. With Yan Di having seized the initiative now, he was instantly suppressed by him to the point of being unable to raise his head.

  Yan Zhaoge laughed out loud, throwing out the dark green bamboo cane.

  The Northern Ocean Clone received the dark green bamboo cane, mercilessly slamming it down on Guan Lide’s head!

  Guan Lide was infuriated to the point that steam seemed to be rising from his seven orifices.

  While the Northern Ocean Clone was weaker than Yan Zhaoge himself, the dark green bamboo cane in his hand came forcefully down to meet Guan Lide’s Dawn Star Prime Sun Crown.

  Heavily injured and facing Yan Di’s sabres, Guan Lide was only able to manoeuvre himself about with great difficulty.

  Currently, he was unable to rely on his martial arts to move about agilely and prevent the Dawn Star Prime Sun Crown from being struck by Yan Zhaoge’s dark green bamboo crown like he had earlier.

  He could only watch on helplessly as his Dawn Star Prime Sun Crown was struck by that strange dark green bamboo cane, its starlight dimming as a result.

  His high-grade Sacred Artifact aside, as his mid-grade Sacred Artifacts were struck by the bamboo cane, they were instantly destroyed!

  Even when Shen Lingzi had died earlier, Guan Lide had only felt shocked and astonished as he had remained confident in his own strength.

  Even though the strength of Yan Zhaoge and his father far surpassed his predictions, in the eyes of Guan Lide, the worst case scenario was only that he would not be able to get that Immortal Artifact.

  Apart from that, he really could not think of anything else that might happen.

  Now, however, this peak expert of the ninth level of the Martial Saint realm was truly able to feel the threat of death looming over him!
