After he had pondered for a short moment, he shook his head and decided not to hide himself anymore. He transformed into a ball of fire and rushed to the place far away firmly.
His movement was detected by Sunlight Emperor and Brocade Emperor in black right away.
Mars Halberd was a straightforward person indeed, but his years of experience told him that he couldn’t make obvious movements.
So he was still restraining his breath as if he was trying to dodge Sunlight Emperor and the others. He made it look like that he was really looking for a chance to escape from them secretly but was detected by Sunlight Emperor and others due to his careless movements.
“Stop him.” Sunlight Emperor frowned and shot the light in the Light in Mirror to Mars Halberd right away.
The others had the same ideas.
This place might have the things which had been left by Exalted Wood Luminary.
Since Suo Mingzhang didn’t take anything with him, he must have asked Mars Halberd to take those things away and leave this place.
Thinking of that, they all transformed into rays of flowing lights and chased after the fire light.
Seeing that they had already found him, Mars Halberd then began to fly in the fastest speed, trying to show everyone else that he was trying his best to flee regardless of everything.
Though joining hands with Yan Zhaoge seemed to be a better solution, Mars Halberd still didn’t want others to find out about the secret of the Pill Hall. Moreover, Yan Zhaoge seemed to be cultivating himself in seclusion.
Therefore, Mars Halberd decided to distract the enemies by himself first.
He had planned to leave the the Original Nebula and return to the World beyond Worlds at the first place. So he was still on the right track of his plan.
Only that it would be much harder and more dangerous for him to leave now.
“Fellow daoist, please stay.” Sunlight Emperor shouted that behind Mars Halberd.
“Candle Sunlight, you better stop showing your hypocritical face.” Mars Halberd said coldly.
Candle Sunlight Emperor replied with a peaceful look on his face, “I understand you holding a grudge toward me. But I really want you to hear this.”
“Exalted Fire Luminary always goes his own way and ignores the laws and rules all the time. He never cares about others. The huge disaster which was caused by his hot temper has involved all the disciples of the Three Clear Lineage in trouble. I have to make this tough decision in order to uphold justice in the World beyond Worlds.”
“I know he isn’t the only one who has crossed the line. But he has gone too far. There is no turning back for him. Now we can only stop loss in time. You know, I’m also grieved about this."
History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 1230: Won’t You Be Ashamed to Face Your Ancestors?
“After many years, time will show that I am right.” Sunlight Emperor said sternly, “Fellow daoist, it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand my intention. But I hate to see you sinking deeper and deeper into the quagmire of error. Otherwise, you know that problems accumulated over the years cannot be resolved overnight. By then even if you want to mend your ways, it’ll be too late.”
“Please leave this place with me. Don’t get yourself involved in the matters with Exalted Fire Luminary and Exalted Wood Luminary anymore.”
Hearing his words, Mars Halberd snorted and asked,
“After many years, won’t you be ashamed to face your ancestors?”
Mars Halberd, not bothering to say another word to Sunlight Emperor, kept flying without a stop.
“What a slow-witted man. Why do you even bother to waste your time on him? If he wants to die with Suo Mingzhang, let’s make sure he gets what he wants.” A woman beside Sunlight Emperor said that indifferently.
As this female True Immortal chased after Mars Halberd, she suddenly raised her hand.
A silver glowing light flew out from her palm.
The light arrived behind Mars Halberd in an extremely fast speed like a shooting star flashing across the sky.
Mars Halberd shook his body and struck on that silver light like a fire dragon swaying its body. Then the silver light exploded right away.
It seemed that the advantage of the silver light was its speed instead of its strength.
However, after the silver light had been broken, it didn’t disappear. Instead, the light spread and formed a gigantic net which surrounded Mars Halberd at once.
Mars Halberd could feel vaguely that the piercingly coldness inside of the light was aiming at him.
Without any hesitation, he still rushed forward. In the meantime, he showed his true figure, which was a fire red halberd, and brandished himself in the sky.
After that, the large net which was interlaced by rays of silver light was cut right away.
Meanwhile, the surface of the halberd seemed to be frosted up and began to shined crystal light.
As the fire red halberd shook its body, the frost on its surface was broken into pieces. As the frost turned into ashes, the raging flames showed up again.
However, the pause of Mars Halberd had given Sunlight Emperor and the others enough time to catch up with him.
Especially when Mars Halberd was under the mirror light of Sunlight Emperor, he started to move tardily immediately.
Then, in a overly threatening manner, the fire red halberd broke through the mirror light again.
However, with a flash in the sky, a black shadow passed by Mars Halberd and arrived at his front. That was Brocade Emperor in black who had employed the Grand Beginning Bright Emptiness Form.
The two of them were old rivalries, let alone that Mars Halberd was sparing no pains to break out of the encirclement. At the moment, he chopped to Brocade Emperor in black right away.
As flows of qi bumped into each other, the appearance of the fire red halberd seemed to change. Now it was like an axe and also a flag.
Brocade Emperor, with the look on his face remain the same, attacked Mars Halberd instantly with his left palm and right fist.
He employed the Yin and Yang qi in his left palm, with the principle of Taiji. In the meantime, his right fist seemed to be everywhere and all conquering.
Flows of clear qi also intertwined with each other on the right hand of Brocade Emperor in black, transforming into a scepter.
The former unique martial art Taiji Yinyang Palm and the later scepter art now combined with each other at this moment flawlessly, showing the wonder of the nature’s creation.
Mars Halberd’s skill which was evolved from the Heavenly Opening Scripture had managed to suppress the Taiji Yinyang Palm of Brocade Emperor.
However, at this moment, that restriction according to the martial art principle no longer existed. And Brocade Emperor in black was not at a disadvantage any more.
Both parties only confronted each other with toughness.
Brocade Emperor in black fell back while Mars Halberd was stalling by the former and stopped flying ahead.
Mars Halberd was still one upon Brocade Emperor in black.
Even if Brocade Emperor in black had no disadvantages in the martial art principle, he was still no match for the unique Brocade Emperor before since he had been divided into two persons.
Nonetheless, he never planned to fight Mars Halberd by himself alone.
After Brocade Emperor had held off the attack of Mars Halberd, the others had already caught up with them and circled Mars Halberd.
Mars Halberd who remained undaunted acted very quickly. Suddenly, he turned around and struck at one of the emperors of the Immortal Court.
Although Mars Halberd was angry at Sunlight and held grudge with Brocade Emperor in black, he still hadn’t lost his calmness in the battle.
He didn’t choose Sunlight Emperor and Brocade Emperor in black as his target not because they were all from the Three Clear Lineage but because the other rivals of him were weaker.
Since he was besieged right now, he had to attach the
weakest spot of his enemies.
Like the lightness, the coldness, the violence, the warmness, the heavenly opening fire suddenly lighted up and reached to that emperor of the Immortal Court, making the latter feel himself drowning in the fire sea.
When Mars Halberd who was good at attacking faced someone who was weaker than him, he would defeat that person utterly as easy as crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.
That emperor who was defeated had to retreat right away, which left a crack of the encirclement.
Because that emperor might be killed right away if he didn’t retreat.
The emperor which had been targeted by Mars Halberd looked like a middle-aged scholar who was gentle and cultivated.
However, when facing Mars Halberd, he had no gentle reaction at all.
His hands in the long sleeves were pushed forward together and then combined to form a circle. After that, he raised his arms and threw them down fiercely as if he was brandishing a huge hammer.
Flows of immortal qi formed into a huge powerful hammer which was as big as the ancient mythical mountain and then smashed to Mars Halberd.
It was like two generals crossing each other’s path in the ancient battlefield.
One was wielding the huge hammer while the other was waving the halberd. With that, they just started fighting each other in the air.
Mars Halberd could even detect that the True Immortal of the Immortal Court in front of him had cultivated the toughest qi of the Five qis of the Immortal, the Steady Qi.
But he didn’t care.
The outer dao would always be the outer dao!
As Mars Halberd wielded his body, the swift and fierce halberd using its heavenly opening blade cut the hammer into two pieces!
After that, the fire red halberd kept going forward and straightly chopped to his enemy in front of him!
Sunlight Emperor shot the light of the Light in Mirror to Mars Halberd again, but the latter only ignored that.
Even if he was stopped by the mirror light and couldn’t kill his opponent in front of him, he still had the confidence that the man in front of him would be injured so seriously that he had to quit the battlefield. And that would be a best chance for Mars Halberd to open a crack in the encirclement.
However, right at this moment, there was a small earthy yellow umbrella hanging above the head of that emperor of the Immortal Court.
Threads of a ritual began to light up in the space.
A huge ritual exposed itself. After that middle-aged scholar look man had exhaled, he attacked Mars Halberd with his hammer again.
Mars Halberd was startled. Given the condition of their former fight and the injury he had caused, that emperor shouldn’t be able to organize the attack so fast and head off Mars Halberd’s attack .
The problem was the ritual.
Mars Halberd then started to glance over the place around him, finding that besides the man in front of him, the other four emperors of the Immortal Court also had a small umbrella hanging above their heads.
The umbrellas were in white, red, black and blue colors.
“Battle array... Five elements...” The experienced Mars Halberd understood what had happened at once.
Actually he didn’t care the battle array which was formed by the emperors of the Immortal Court.
It would only take him more time to get rid of it.
However, Sunlight Emperor and Brocade Emperor in black were also on the spot.
As expected, since Mars Halberd wasn’t able to break through the encirclement in a short period of time, the light in the Light in Mirror became brighter and brighter in no time, making Mars Halberd feel that he was carrying the heaviest thing in the world.
In the meantime, Sunlight Emperor also reached to Mars Halberd.
Note from the translator:
Dear readers, I'm sorry for the infrequent updates after picking this novel up. And after quite some consideration, I've decided to drop this novel so that I can focus on BL novels only which are really what I love most. Picking up a novel that already has many chapters translated is really a huge task for me. The consistency of the previous terms has been such a headache for me at a point. I hope my translation didn't fail you much. If at some point, it is not that readable, then I'm sorry. I'll keep improving my skills so as to bring better translations. Thanks for reading the translation and sorry again for not being able to finish the whole story. And I'd love it if any other group would be willing to continue this novel to the end. Best regards.
History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 1231 - Siege
“Fellow Daoist, stop making continuous mistakes.” Sunlight Emperor sighed, while holding up the Mirror Light with one hand, and grabbed Mars Halberd with the other hand.
Mars Halberd didn’t bother talking to him. The tail of the halberd slammed into the Sunlight Emperor’s palm.
The Sunlight Emperor’s palm was ever-changing. In the interlace of multiple shadows and the light, the palm of his hand radiated light rays. A fiery red pole rushed out from it.
The long pole looked exactly the same as Mars Halberd’s halberd’s tail. Even the strength and power realm were similar.
Under the collision, both bodies vibrated together.
Sunlight Emperor withdrew his palm; the fiery red pole and the light in his hands dispersed at the same time.
After the light disappeared, there was a trace of burns in his palm.
Despite both of them being in the same lineage of orthodox Daoism, Mars Halberd had already achieved completion for thousands of years. Although he was suppressed in the Dragon Tomb for a long time, he was still much more experienced than the Sunlight Emperor.
Sunlight Emperor was also not discouraged, holding the Mirror Light with the other hand. The candlelight reflected in the ancient mirror shook violently.
Then, a series of milky flames flew out of it and bombarded on Mars Halberd.
Mars Halberd turned back, and the crimson flame dissipated the milky flames.
But at this moment, under the vibrant candlelight in the ancient mirror, it reflected a fire red halberd, and it broke out of the mirror swiftly, confronting Mars Halberd again.
Sunlight Emperor’s gaze was solemn. His Immortal Qi surged forward and merged with the Mirror Lamp.
He was off Clear Illusory Moral Lord’s lineage. At the same time, he also learned the secrets of many Heavenly Scripture, such as the Clear Illusory Moral Scripture, Cyclic Heavenly Scripture, Yin Yang Heavenly Scripture and Myriad Phenomena Heavenly Scripture.
With all the knowledge, it evolved into a mirror art that could fabricate myriads of forms in itself. Also, it was powered by heaven and earth’s candle flame. Thus, allowing it to be endlessly changing and graceful.
Also, Sunlight Emperor’s Immortal concept and Mirror Lamp’s power conception were in the same lineage.
Now he himself urged this unique skill. Under the combination of the two, the power of the reflection in the mirror seemed to be on par with the real Mars Halberd.
The two sides collided. Mars Halberd didn’t manage to get any advantage.
On the contrary, milky white flames flew out continuously, bombarding the real Mars Halberd.
This flame seemed to be light and flimsy without any harm.
But, Mars Halberd knew clearly about its destructive power. If the attack landed, even True Immortals of Three Clear Lineage would not be able to sustain it.
What’s more? A finger came without warning. It was as though it crossed the boundary of time and space, appearing so abruptly on the side of Mars Halberd.
Grand Cosmos Five Manifestations – Grand Commencement Divine Finger!
Black-clothed Brocade Emperor!
On Mars Halberd’s surface, the flames suddenly converged.
In the void, there was only one carved dragon pattern on the fire red halberd.
On the surface of the halberd, a faint luster flashed by.
This luster finally fell on the halberd tip.
<
br /> Then, Mars Halberd streaked across the sky in a beautiful arc.
At this moment, he was no longer as violent as he previously was.
Its movement could no longer be defined by rigidity or softness, nor was it simply a combination of rigidity and softness.
But, it was beyond all that. A fiery red arc was drawn. The entanglement of the Mirror Light was first bounced off, then it avoided the white candlelight flames bombardment. It reached precisely on the fingertip of the Black-clothed Brocade Emperor’s index finger.
Both figures trembled at the same time, and bounced back in the opposite direction.
After bouncing off, Mars Halberd once again traversed the graceful trajectory, escaping the Sunlight Emperor’s Mirror Light subsequent pursuit barely.
With the help of this collision, Mars Halberd quickly traveled through time and space and moved towards the other side.
His target was another True Immortal emperor from the Immortals court.
There were a total of six immortals who came here.
Five of them joined forces to set up the formation. They would borrow power with each other, and to echo with each other in the formation.
In the formation, there was an empty slot.
It was the first woman who released the silver white light to intercept Mars Halberd’s path.
Seeing Mars Halberd rushing towards herself, the woman sneered, “You see me as weakling?”
“Heretics! You’re always proud with the little profit in front of you, acting complacent and putting no one in the eyes. You should know nothing is absolute!”
She bent down to avoid Mars Halberd’s attack, and then punched Mars Halberd from the side.
The silver light on her fist shone like a bright silver long spear.
She utilized her fist arts to activate her spear arts. She intercepted horizontally, directly hitting the middle of Mars Halberd’s waist. It directly broke the fulcrum that allowed him to exert strength. It was apparent that her judgements were precise!
Mars Halberd flashed sharply, and the crimson flame inside exploded, forming a rolling wave. It successfully slowed down the woman’s punch.
But Mars Halberd’s forward pace was slightly slower.
