Prince Hongye’s aura became purer . Each of his pores emitted a golden radiance as he gripped his fists resembling two large hammers .
His power created fluctuations in the air . The spectators instantly retreated for they felt a heavy pressure on their chest as if a boulder was pushing down on them despite the sealing formations on stage .
One could easily imagine the pressure Yan Ziyu was feeling .
It seemed that the prince wasn’t exaggerating when he wanted to defeat Ziyu within ten moves .
“Boom!” The hair on his fists have turned yellow, seemingly cast from gold . A single punch created multiple ripples that eventually formed a golden wall .
The thunderous punch made the weaker cultivators bleed from their ears .
The students from Wanxiang were scared and backed off, no longer chanting .
Meanwhile, Yan Ziyu stood there, unmoving . His spear traveled like a flood dragon and pierced through the golden wall .
The prince wore a pair of ancient gauntlets . They allowed him to catch the tip of the spear, resulting in a metallic clanking .
Seven spirit stones were carved on each of the gauntlets, positioned in an astronomical order . The spear didn’t leave a single mark on it .
“Boom!” The prince gathered power again . This time around, his bones started cracking . The second fist slammed directly on the spear .
A massive power traveled from the spear to Ziyu’s hands . He had no choice but to spin his spear around six times in the air to dispel this force .
This prince was as strong as a bull; no one among the young generation could match him physically .
“This brute is super strong, I think he can break a mountain with a single punch . ” Ningshuai said .
“His offensive power is matchless because of the Golden Sacred Scripture on top of drinking the blood of spirit beasts growing up . If I’m correct, millennium beasts’ blood at least seven times too . He also used Stargold Liquid refinement for his body, so his bones and muscles are reaching the limit . ” Feiyun said .
“Stargold Liquid? What’s that?” Ningshuai’s eyes flashed after hearing about a treasure .
“A precious liquid in the stars, perfect for body refinement . Even Enlightened Beings can’t just get them . ”
“I see…” Ningshuai was even more interested .
“Stargold isn’t actually the stars in space . Pieces are just floating right above the sky . Some are as big as a fist, floating about one meter above the ground, while others can have a radius of tens of thousand miles, way high up in the air, not much different from a real star . ”
“Well, wouldn’t one that big blot out the sky, it must be majestic . " Ningshuai said .
Feiyun nodded: “It is known by several other names, such as Earthstar, Mundane Star, and Gemstar . It is exceedingly rare . Not to mention a big one, even a fist-sized one is considered a supreme treasure . You won’t see one every few million miles, only the luckiest person could randomly find them . It can also produce a liquid, a fist-sized one for a single drop . Prince Hongye probably used that much, so I suppose Qian Dynasty found one in the past . ”
Ningshuai’s eyes almost left their sockets after hearing this .
Feiyun continued: “in fact, this prince has a better offensive game than Beiming Potian . I wonder if Jingshui can match up with him . ”
“Wait, he still isn’t number one?” Ningshuai asked .
Feiyun gently shook his head - who knows if he didn’t know or just didn’t want to explain?
The two on stage have fought for nearly twenty moves . One white and one golden ray were slamming at each other; few could actually see their moves .
The prince was brutal but Ziyu didn’t let up since he had improved in the last few days .
Though the prince had the advantage, he felt embarrassed for not beating the guy within ten moves .
“Golden Sacred Scripture - Elephant God!” The prince’s blood boiled like gushing springs . He grew from three meters to seven meters tall . His arms became golden pillars, looking just like a god .
His ears became flat and big, almost like a palm-leaf fan . He got on all fours with gigantic hooves . Even the Giant watching the stage became startled as if this was a primordial beast coming into being .
“Boom!” The prince stampeded over, easily crushing the techniques unleashed by Ziyu .
His spear nearly got knocked away; his hands started bleeding with deep gashes .
The elephant finally made contact with an unstoppable momentum and continued pushing him into the barrier, even breaking it in the process .
Ziyu was stomped by the hoof indenting a hole into the ground with dust clouding everyone’s vision . Cracks started to emanate from the impact point . Two cultivators were too slow so their legs broke, rendering them stuck in the crevices .
Ziyu’s armor was cracked, on the verge of breaking . Once this final layer collapsed, he would be stomped to death .
“Let’s go!” He gritted his teeth and mustered his remaining strength for one last thrust . The spear managed to penetrate the golden glow of the elephant and struck its stomach . Blood poured down .
The elephant god became furious and roared, causing more than ten spectators to bleed from all orifices and fainted .
It raised its frontal hooves with a blinding glow, ready to stomp its opponent into meat paste .
The students from Wanxiang screamed and covered their eyes, not wanting to look . The female cultivators also turned away .
“Killing is forbidden!” The Giant on stage saw this and rushed forward .
However, someone was even faster than him .
He was too far away and wouldn’t make it on time . Feiyun was the closest so he had no choice but to dart over beneath the elephant and raised both of his hands .
9,998 beast souls rushed out at the same time . His body ignited with fire and issued countless roars . His hands made contact with the hooves and unleashed their massive power .
“Boom!” The ground beneath him got crushed, leaving a waist-deep pit .
The elephant also got blown back, needing dozens of meters of stabilization before coming to a halt . The ground was filled with large hoof marks now .
This was essentially an even exchange but Feiyun managed to save Yan Ziyu .
The crowd stared at him, petrified, unable to believe their own eyes .
Not because he was strong enough to stop the prince, but because his veil has been blown away by the impact, revealing his face .
A man presumed dead was standing before everyone as a cold wind swept by .
Feiyun got out of the pit and patted away the dirt . He touched his face - sure enough, he was exposed .
Nevertheless, he remained calm, unlike the spectators .
“Boom!” The golden glow dispersed and the prince assumed his original form . He stared at Feiyun in disbelief .
“That’s… that’s not the demonic successor…” A young girl became slack-jawed; her eyes agape .
“That’s clearly Feng Feiyun . ”
“Wasn’t he burned alive by that heavenly formation in his mansion? Why is he alive?”
An old cultivator rubbed his eyes to make sure: “The Divine King is alive . He hid his identity to join the competition . ”
“The Divine King is back now!” This news spread like a plague across the capital .
Numerous cultivators ran for the Earth stage for verification .
“Feng Feiyun, this monster had climbed out of hell . Even Yama can’t take his life?” Many didn’t wish to see him again, especially the Grand Chancellor and Long Shenya . They felt something ominous .
