History’s Number 1 Founder - Chapter 1274

Chapter 1274

Zhu Hongwu specialized in the Martial Way, and his will of the Martial Way was pure and cultivated . His physical flesh was also very strong and even improved after he reached the Immortal Soul Third Level .

Generally speaking, a Martial Way cultivator in the Immortal Soul First Level burst with energy so great that one would feel like he was standing in front of the Sun when facing him . Standing close to such Martial Way cultivators was like standing close to the Sun .

Martial Way cultivators in the Immortal Soul Second Level didn’t possess an undulation of aura that burst with so much energy, but they were much more powerful . As their pores shook, it felt as if stars in the sky flashed . Outside their bodies, it was the Greater World . Inside their bodies, there seemed to be other worlds of their own . The stars in and outside of their bodies resonated and shone together .

The physical flesh of Martial Way cultivators in the Immortal Soul Third Level was even stronger . When they unleashed their energy, the universes in their bodies seemed to destruct, before they were born again .

Zhu Hongwu didn’t need to unleash his energy now, but the universe in his body continued to experience that process as he inhaled and exhaled . It was extremely frightening .

When he unleashed his power now, the universe in his body remained stable while the world outside of his body started to collapse – void space was torn apart and walked towards destruction .

Besides his strength, Zhu Hongwu was also very quick . He managed to close the gap significantly in a short span of time . He reached before Yue Hongyan and Zhu Yi instantly .

He was a Martial Way cultivator, which meant that his lethality doubled once he got close to his opponents .

Zhu Yi didn’t seem bothered by this and streaks and streaks of gases surged from his body . As the streaks of gases intersected, they turned into a huge Qilin . The Qilin roared, although it didn’t carry any killing intent . However, it was still very terrifying .

Above the Qilin, a light wheel also appeared . As the light wheel revolved, radiances appeared subtly in the Heavens and Earth and gathered towards the light wheel .

The revolving light wheel seemed to revolve countless worlds at the same time .

Zhu Yi said indifferently, “The Celestial Treasure Wheel revolves the countless concepts of the Dao, but not the will of Buddhas and divine beings . ”

That light wheel combined with the Qilin and an immense force was unleashed from the Qilin’s body suddenly . This immense force could suppress countless worlds .

This was a force that Zhu Yi summoned after he combined his Celestial Qilin Mantra with the Great Heavenly Wheels .

As the Qilin roared and appeared in front of Zhu Yi and Yue Hongyan, its hind legs stepped in void space while it lifted its two front legs up into the air . Following that, he stomped both its front legs down on Zhu Hongwu . It’s as if the sky had turned over and was crashing towards the ground .

“Oh? Your Celestial Treasure Wheel was taken from Shao Dongtian, but it’s more complete than his . ” Zhu Hongwu’s gaze flashed and he didn’t seem too surprised . His palm opened up and a tremendous force was unleashed . Zhu Hongwu used one of his palm to grab onto both front legs of the Qilin that were about to stomp down .

Whereas Zhu Hongwu’s other hand turned into a claw shape and grabbed onto a sensitive area of the Qilin’s belly . “You’ve obtained the Cang Heaven Spell Blade and comprehended the Great Nine Heavens Holy Sword Technique . Recently, you’ve even obtained the City in the Sky wreckage and the Heavenly Imperial Jade . You now possess more Heaven Gate’s mantras and treasures than Shao Dongtian now . ”

“But don’t forget that the Great Heavenly Wheels is in my hands . Besides the Great Nine Heavens Holy Sword Technique and Celestial Sky Formation, the Heaven’s Gate mantras that I possess are the most complete . Right now, I’m even above the Heaven’s Gate mantras . ” Zhu Hongwu’s claw struck out and appeared extremely crude . It resembled a despicable move that ordinary physical martial artists liked to use .

But Zhu Yi’s Qilin wasn’t able to avoid this claw . The sensitive area in its belly was pierced by Zhu Hongwu’s claws .

As Zhu Hongwu pulled his hand back after piercing the Qilin’s belly, he tore the entire belly apart .

Zhu Yi’s powers condensed to form the image of the Qilin, which allowed this mythical creature to descend into the mortal world . But Zhu Hongwu was like a satanic god sent down to destroy the world, as he killed the Qilin .

“Fourth Junior, go over to Saros first . ” Zhu Yi’s expression didn’t even change slightly . He lifted his hand up and conjured a spell . Then, he pointed at Zhu Hongwu and his mana surged out .

Yue Hongyan stared at Zhu Hongwu and flames seemed to dance in her eyes . But her gaze appeared very cold .

Although her chest was burning with fury, her spiritual altar and sea of awareness was extremely clear . She was never so calm before .

She nodded her head before her figure flashed and she escaped rapidly . She proceeded towards the Saros Magical Tree that was emitting a dim golden radiance at the top of Mount Lan .

Zhu Hongwu was expressionless, “It’s too late to leave now . ”

After he forcefully tore the Qilin’s belly apart, Zhu Yi continued to step forward and attacked Zhu Yi and Yue Hongyan .

With Zhu Hongwu and Zhu Yi’s current powers, they were able to ignore the concepts of time and space . But when their opponents were equally good and could restrain them too, the concepts of time and space would resurface again .

For a powerful Martial Way cultivator like Zhu Hongwu, getting into close contact with his opponents allowed his immense explosiveness to greatly increase his speed . The extent of that increase was so great such that he moved even faster than his opponents’ mind . His opponents would then be unable to react to his attack in time .

But as Zhu Hongwu just moved, he saw streaks and streaks of gases spurting from Zhu Yi’s body . These gases turned into dragon projections .

As these dragon projections roared, they revealed a will of continuous improvement and advancement . They originated from Zhu Yi’s Soaring Dragon Spell . They had no offensive abilities, but they revealed the majestic and grand concept of humans’ drive to seek improvements .

At this moment, these dragon projections unleashed a powerful attack that contained an immense destructive force . Zhu Hongwu was encircled, and these dragon projections started to attack Zhu Hongwu like meteorites that were crashing down!

Zhu Hongwu was slightly moved, “Emperor of Violence’s mantra? You got it from the Marquis of Jinghuan, Liang An?

Zhu Yi wasn’t frantic as he spoke, “The Emperor of Violence cultivated both the Martial Way and spells, while Liang An specialized in the Martial Way . But he still managed to inherit some of the spells that the Emperor of Violence cultivated . ”

“The Emperor of Violence was selfish and greedy . He was also very self-centered . But his will to improve and become better is something that’s worth adopting . I kept the essence of his mantras and removed the unwanted parts . Father, please give me your guidance on this . ”

Zhu Hongwu’s brows raised, “It’s not worth mentioning . ”

As his figure trembled slightly, he seemed to unleash countless iron fists in an instant . They struck the dragon projections and crushed these projections .

But at this moment, Zhu Hongwu stopped for a moment . He didn’t try to capture both Zhu Yi and Yue Hongyan . He started to analyze Zhu Yi again .

Shi Zongtang, the Royal House Lord and the rest observing the battle were also moved, “Many reckoned that Zhu Yi is the strongest among Lin Feng’s disciples because of the Higan Golden Bridge . But now it seems like his powers are still very frightening even without the Higan Golden Bridge!”

Zhu Yi managed to use both the Heaven’s Gate mantras and Emperor of Violence’s mantras without making them seem awkward . He seems like a descendant from the Heaven’s Gate that transcended time to come to the Modern Age, or someone who immersed himself with the Emperor of Violence’s spells for many years .

Even a descendant of the Heaven’s Gate and Emperor of Violence might not be so familiar with these mantras and spells as Zhu Yi .

Not many mantras and spells could be cultivated easily, but Zhu Yi managed to use them so easily .

“That’s not the key…” Zhu Hongwu stared at Zhu Yi and did not continue to be on the offense . He was extremely experienced in battle . Although he only exchanged a few moves, he knew that the problem wasn’t so simple like it seemed on the surface .

The important thing was that Zhu Yi managed to react even though he was in such close contact with Zhu Hongwu . He counteracted Zhu Hongwu’s attack suitably and wasn’t pressed because he was in peril .

If a spell cultivator’s powers and level were much greater than a Martial Way cultivator, he would be able to react to the Martial Way cultivator’s attacks if they were a certain distance apart .

Moreover, too huge a gap in powers was enough to prevent the weaker party from getting close to the stronger party because the stronger party could transform space and the distance between them .

While Zhu Hongwu admitted that Zhu Yi’s powers were greater than most Immortal Soul cultivators and even some of the Cardinal Tribulations Beginning Stage cultivators, he believed that he wasn’t quick enough to avoid his attacks .

Normally, once he got so close, it was impossible for Zhu Yi to react to his attacks . Victory was already decided before the battle started .

But reality happened in the opposite way . The both of them were engaged in an intense close-combat battle . While Zhu Hongwu was the more active party, he wasn’t able to gain the upper hand, much less achieve victory .

The most abnormal thing was that Zhu Yi didn’t even bother to increase their gap between them!

Zhu Yi remained where he was and never took one step back . He clashed head-on with Zhu Hongwu and they fought intensely with each other . ”

Even when Zhu Hongwu’s attack slowed down, Zhu Yi didn’t capitalize on the chance to widen the gap between them . He remained calmly where he was and looked at Zhu Hongwu .

“Predicting and deducing just like the Three Lifetimes Karmic Curse? No, I infused the way of karma . It’s not possible for him to use a spell like the Three Lifetimes Karmic Curse to predict my actions, not with his powers . ”

“It seems like he saw through my illusions and is able to react beforehand…” Zhu Hongwu stared in Zhu Yi’s eyes . He saw the word ‘Yi’ appearing in Zhu Yi’s eyes and there were also streaks of radiances that flashed in his eyes . A mystical power concept surged out from his eyes . It was as if countless things were evolving .

Zhu Yi looked at Zhu Hongwu and said, “Father, show me your true capabilities . In the entire history of human cultivators, I should be one of the top few spell cultivators who’s unafraid of a Martial Way cultivator getting close to me . ”

Zhu Hongwu said coldly, “Unfilial son, you’re the one who’s at a disadvantage now . ”

As he spoke, he punched out his fist towards Zhu Yi . His fist seemed extremely slow, but was actually very heavy like the Earth and vast like the Heavens . It engulfed the Heavens and Earth .

The entire Heavens and Earth seemed to solidify, and Zhu Hongwu’s fist inched forward . It was extremely slow, but it was unavoidable .

In void space, a light wheel appeared and kept on revolving . Many divine beings and Buddhas sang together above the light wheel, while streaks of purple radiances flashed . They revealed the aura of a domineering ruler .

A brutal force crashed down on Zhu Yi . Zhu Yi had to face it directly!

Zhu Hongwu said quietly, “Unfilial son, show me how much you’ve learnt from your master!”
