History’s Strongest Senior Brother - Chapter 1282

Chapter 1282: 1282

In this instant, the Concealed Sovereign – Yang Ce’s entire body felt numb .

Not only could he not circulate his Immortal Aura properly, but even his thoughts had also succumbed to silence .

Luckily, the Concealed Sovereign – Yang Ce had always considered the losing scenario before considering the possibility of him obtaining victory . He had also thought about the possibility of him receiving serious damage from the Three Feet of Frost .

While he was in a state where he couldn’t process any thoughts, the artifact prepared beforehand started to display its effectiveness .

The strong essence of the sun’s scorching flame burst out from Yang Ce’s Spirit Yin Centre . It immediately awakened him from the frozen state of his mind .

With the simultaneous existence of ice and fire, the Concealed Sovereign only felt his head exploding . He felt as if his entire mind was being torn apart .

However, after recovering to his senses, the dim dark radiance around his entire body retracted . He suppressed the violent frigid aura within his body and immediately retreated .

The seven attacks were over . A crack appeared on the Astro Sovereign – Chen Xuanzong’s forehead . Immediately, ice blue devilish light seemed to appear .

Chen Xuanzong forcefully stabilized his state of mind . However, he still did another slash towards the Concealed Sovereign – Yang Ce .

Although it wasn’t as strong as the seven attacks beforehand, the attacks were extraordinarily fierce .

If Yang Ce was still within the frozen state, he would have to receive this attack .

However, now that he had recovered, he managed to relieve the numbness of his body in time . He retreated without hesitation and managed to barely escape this attack of Chen Xuanzong .

However, even so, the wound on Yang Ce’s body was much more serious than he had expected .

Even if Chen Xuanzong’s body wasn’t feeling well, he was still better off than Yang Ce .

The outcome of this battle had already been decided .

The Astro Sovereign – Chen Xuanzong had won!

“Continuously combating against the Water Demon [1] for the thousand years you’ve been frozen . Although it wasn’t combating against a person, it still made your attacks sharper . ” Yang Ce’s Profound Immortal form was not the physique of a mortal anymore .

However, his face was currently pale white as if he was covered with a layer of frost .

He looked at Chen Xuanzong, and let out a long sigh .

Flicker appeared in Yan Zhaoge’s eyes who was spectating at the side . He continuously nodded and felt that this journey wasn’t wasted .

In the past, both the Exalted Water Luminary – Chen Xuanzong and the Exalted Concealed Luminary – Yang Ce were ranked within the New Kunlun Nine Luminaries . They were the pride during that era and were the legendary pillars of the Kunlun Mountain .

Even if it was the era before the Great Calamity, the amount of Profound Immortal Sovereigns like them was extremely little .

A face-off battle between the two sovereigns was even rarer .

Although the period of combat wasn’t long, and the winner was determined within ten attacks, the danger contained within their full-force attacks was unimaginable .

“The Concealed Sovereign can tell that the Astro Sovereign wouldn’t be able to withstand long combat because of his devil seal, and had to end things as soon as possible . As a result, he didn’t plan on fighting without caring for the consequences . ” Yan Zhaoge continuously praised, “His attacks at the start were on purpose . ”

The Sword Sovereign – Yue Zhenbei at the side also said, “Indeed . First of all, he started the attack to avoid remaining passive in the whole fight . Secondly, he wanted to oppress the Astro Sovereign’s attacks, and make him panic . ”

Contrary to what this battle had displayed, both Astro Sovereign – Chen Xuanzong and Concealed Sovereign – Yang Ce were both the most proficient in fighting long battles .

It wasn’t because they had a lot of stamina and strength that were endless . Instead, they were the type to become stronger the longer they engage themselves in combat .

On the contrary, the opponents they were against might become weaker the longer they engage in combat .

Chen Xuanzong was considered to be very introverted in terms of battle .

It didn’t mean that he wasn’t strong at the start . Instead, as the frigid aura continuously filled the air, he would become stronger . Until the frigid aura finally reached its climax, only by then he would be able to achieve his strongest state .

As for his opponent, because of the accumulation of the frigid aura invading them, they would be affected even without the explosion of the Three Feet of Frost . It would cause them to become weaker, and it would be hard for them to display their own strength as usual .

Yang Ce’s style was similar to Chen Xuanzong .

On one hand, it was like the Dim Radiant Twelve Arts’ Art of Wilderness Devouring . When the Concealed Sovereign – Yang Ce displayed his Ketu Dim Encompass Mantra, the corroding power would then devour the opponent’s strength, and continuously strengthen Yang Ce’s power .

On the other hand, other than the Heaven Enveloping Palm and the Ketu Dim Encompass Mantra, he still had the divine secret arts – the Soul Corroding Dark Mist to fight against his opponent .

Previously, Chen Xuanzong’s frigid sword intent was constantly being corroded by Yang Ce’s corrosive powers .

Chen Xuanzong’s body was also slowly being corroded after being affected by this .

As time passed, his physique and mind were gradually getting weaker and weaker .

As a result, those that fought against the Concealed Sovereign – Yang Ce would also gradually grow weaker, and would ultimately be forced to surrender .

Their styles were completely the same, and yet they were equal opponents . Under normal circumstances, unless one of them had made a huge blunder, they would have to fight for a long time, and see who would be able to persist longer .

However, with the devil seal on Chen Xuanzong, the seal would worsen if he were to undergo a long battle . As a result, he used a combat style that differed from his usual style of combat .

He had to finish the battle as soon as possible and decide the outcome of the battle within seven attacks .

If the Concealed Sovereign didn’t suffer from defeat after the seven attacks, there was no need to battle anymore . If they were to continue fighting, the only one benefiting from it would be the Water Demon . If he had to shift his concentration to suppress the demon, he would undoubtedly lose .

The Concealed Sovereign – Yang Ce could also tell that .

Naturally, he didn’t plan on fighting intensely with Chen Xuanzong immediately . If he could stall the battle, he would stand victorious .

However, stalling the opponent required strategy .

If he were to remain passive, and allow the opponent to attack however he wanted to, it would result in the Concealed Sovereign being unable to stall or even withstand his attacks . Instead, he would be completely oppressed by Chen Xuanzong, and ultimately result in a defeat .

Yang Ce had been famous for many years, and he had experienced many kinds of battles throughout his life . Naturally, he knew that the best defense would be staying on the offense .

As a result, he took the initiative at the start of the battle and gained the advantage of attacking first . A Heaven Enveloping Palm cast with his full strength was extremely dominating .

Not only had he seized the advantage, but he had also interrupted Chen Xuanzong’s momentum of charging his attack . He didn’t allow Chen Xuanzong to use one art after another simultaneously and prevented him from achieving a force that could never be defended against .

The front parts of the battle were all within Yang Ce’s calculation . Everything was going as he had planned .

However, Yang Ce never expected Chen Xuanzong’s saber intent to have improved . It ruined his plan and caused his plot to have failed .

Yang Ce was able to withstand the full-force attack from the two-feet-long Broken Cold Sabre . However, when Chen Xuanzong attacked with the one-feet-long saber, it broke through Yang Ce’s defense in the end .

As a result, the Exalted Water Luminary was victorious in this battle .

“However, if he wasn’t purposely hiding it, the Concealed Sovereign doesn’t seem to have studied the Primordial Heavenly Scripture . ” Yan Zhaoge contemplated .

The Concealed Sovereign – Yang Ce’s gaze swept across Chen Xuanzong, Yue Zhenbei, and Yan Zhaoge . His gaze circulated between Chen Xuanzong and Yue Zhenbei . In the end, he let out a sigh and smiled, “Oh well . It’s the same result no matter who wins or loses . ”

Even if he won against Chen Xuanzong, it was just a personal accomplishment .

The Sword Sovereign had returned to the World beyond Worlds earlier than the Exalted Earth Luminary . Before the Exalted Earth Luminary – Jiangshen returns, Yang Ce would naturally be unable to remain in his current stable position .

He shook his head, and his figure backstepped . He escaped within the void and was going to disappear .

Both Astro Sovereign and Sword Sovereign frowned .

However, before they had any movements, a treasured light flew from within the faraway World beyond Worlds . It distorted this area’s cosmic void .

With this as a cover, the Concealed Sovereign’s silhouette quickly vanished .

When Yan Zhaoge witnessed it, he wasn’t concerned about the whereabouts of the Concealed Sovereign . Instead, he looked at the World beyond Worlds .

“What is that?”
