Chapter 5692 Peak Duel (3)
Chapter 5692 Peak Duel (3)
Through the temporal rift, he could see the kingdom of Yue.
....“Yue Kingdom?”
“Emperor!”
As he reached the end, astonishment flickered in Shi Xiu’s eyes.
He had thought his grandson had encountered a formidable Tribulation Realm, necessitating the opening of the prohibition.
But he hadn’t expected that the opponent his grandson had faced would also be an Emperor.
He couldn’t help but exclaim, “It seems that this Sacred Assembly is truly unprecedented!”
The Sacred Assembly of the Ancient Wood Sect, although meant for selecting a Holy Maiden, also recruited some core disciples during the selection process.
That’s why the spots were so precious.
Becoming a core disciple of the Ancient Wood Sect wasn’t easy.
Even someone like Shi Jiu, a direct descendant of the Seven Tribulation realm, needed to go through rigorous selection to become a core disciple of the Ancient Wood Sect.
But even so, how many could reach the Five Tribulation realm?
Only the Holy Maiden could achieve that.
The remaining core disciples, despite being cultivated by the Ancient Wood Sect, mostly stopped at the Three or Four Tribulation realm.
Like his grandson, or the Emperor who fought against his grandson.
Such an extraordinary Emperor would find it effortless to enter the Ancient Wood Sect.
He might even become a candidate disciple of the Ancient Moon Divine Sect.
They were among the few prodigies in the Shi Kingdom.
Shi Xiu also thought of the Divine Archer, who had risen within a mere 10,000 years.
Fan Tianfeng!
With the same 200,000-fold divine power.
Possessing unfathomable strength.
Coupled with some extraordinary Emperors from the ancient Wood Sect, this Sacred Assembly is indeed quite intriguing.
Sensing Shi Jiu’s arrival in Yue Kingdom, Shi Xiu promptly communicated with an ancient powerhouse within the royal family of Yue.
A scattered Tribulation powerhouse of the Six Tribulation realm.
Once an Imperial Emperor of a certain era in Yue Kingdom, he had led Yue Kingdom to its peak.
Among the 16 kingdoms, there are rankings.
Currently, Yue Kingdom ranks at the bottom, but in the era of that ancestor, it was among the top five.
He was also a Half-Step Seven Tribulation existence, unfortunately failing in his tribulation crossing, becoming a Scattered Tribulation.
“Shi Xiu, why do you summon me?” A venerable voice echoed through spacetime, reaching inside the kingdom of Shi.
Shi Xiu calmly replied, “I have a junior with me, in your Yue Kingdom’s imperial palace, I hope you, elder brother, spare his life.”
…
“Ts ts, such a young and tender little fellow!”
Two mighty beings exchanged words with a gap between them.
Shi Xiu lowered his posture to speak, naturally giving face to the ancient powerhouse from Yue Kingdom.
He was a Scattered Tribulation descending from the mountains, while Shi Xiu was the Universe Master ascending the mountains.
Within the Yue Kingdom’s imperial palace,
Empress Fengchen received a transmission from an ancestor within the royal family, her expression unchanged.
Naturally, she had discretion.
In today’s Yue Kingdom, she still called the shots.
Even though there were several ancestors within the royal family, she was ultimately the one in power, and those ancestors would all give her face.
If it was truly necessary to kill someone like Shi Jiu to boost Yue’s strength, no one would hesitate.
But it wasn’t necessary.
It was best to make Shi Jiu retreat willingly.
The current Empress found Jian Wushuang more and more pleasing to the eye.
Not only was his strength extraordinary, but his background also suited her taste.
As a descendant of the Wu family, he had the support of the Wu family behind him.
In the future, the Wu family would also stand together with the royal family of Yue.
It could be considered mutually beneficial.
Crack!
The barrier began to show cracks.
The Spirit Element Slash was completely shattered, countless divine powers surrounded Jian Wushuang, as if swallowing his figure whole.
Not only did this cause Jian Wushuang to break out in a cold sweat, but it also made everyone else tense.
Of course, except for Princess Jincheng.
Even Shi Han and Shi Jiu didn’t want Jian Wushuang to fall like this.
Powerful individuals always sympathize with each other.
Moreover, Jian Wushuang had previously given him the treasure to restore his divine power for a fair fight.
Even though he returned the universe crystals, with this gentlemanly gesture, it still earned him admiration. Surrounded by countless divine power, Jian Wushuang’s back was enveloped by the Candle Dragon Feather Wings, and despite the violent divine power assault, it couldn’t break through.
The defense of the Beast God Armor was impeccable.
It weakened 99 percent of the divine power attacks.
Those that landed on Jian Wushuang at most could only shatter his divine body.
It didn’t count as serious injuries.
As long as it was a conventional injury, he could instantly recover.
After the raging divine power persisted for the time it takes to burn an incense stick, it completely disappeared.
Shi Jiu floated in the air, his clothes tattered, and his silver battle armor slightly damaged.
Looking at the figure of the Beast God in the center of the divine power.
Whoosh!
Jian Wushuang unfurled his Candle Dragon Feather Wings.
Indeed, his divine body had ruptured.
But in the next moment, his divine body instantly recovered, his aura erupted once again, reaching 190,000-fold.
“Your secret technique is formidable!” Jian Wushuang couldn’t help but exclaim.
However, Shi Jiu widened his eyes in astonishment and said, “You didn’t suffer any injuries at all?”
Not only Shi Jiu, but everyone watching the battle also felt incredulous.
Even Wu Li, this time, furrowed his brows.
The more he understood Jian Wushuang, the more he felt that something was not quite right.
Jian Wushuang’s strength seemed to exceed his expectations.
This time, he miraculously recovered from serious injuries at an astonishing speed.
“Unfortunately, just like that, you can’t threaten me at all!” Jian Wushuang flashed his figure and instantly rushed out.
In just an instant, he had already arrived in front of Shi Jiu.
With a clenched fist, he directly struck the opponent’s chest, followed by a series of melee attacks.
Facing the frenzied assault, Shi Jiu quickly stabilized.
Employing the power of restrictions, although he gained a brief boost, time was limited.
He was more anxious than Jian Wushuang.
“Spirit Element Slash!”
Shi Jiu took a half step back, once again unleashing his peak secret technique.
“The same move again? It’s getting boring!” Jian Wushuang dodged aside, gathering a massive sword blade in his hands, which descended from the sky, aiming straight for Shi Jiu’s face.
Before the hand seal could even form, Shi Jiu had to retreat to avoid it.
Jian Wushuang didn’t give him any chance at all.
After disrupting his opponent’s secret technique, he lunged forward again.
Shi Jiu hurriedly defended himself.
Now he was left with only one last move.
Dragging it out any longer would undoubtedly result in his defeat.
But using that move would entail a huge consumption of energy.
He might even end up falling into a deep slumber.
Buzz!
Shi Jiu erupted with divine power once more, directly boosting his power to 200,000-fold.
He didn’t dare to use that move lightly, so he had to fully unleash his restrictions.
He erupted with 200,000-fold divine power to counter Jian Wushuang.
Feeling the continuous surge of divine power, Jian Wushuang’s expression turned cold.
He thought he could wear down Shi Jiu, but he didn’t expect his opponent to be so resilient.
Now it had been 15 minutes, with no sign of weakening, but rather, Shi Jiu was getting stronger with each battle, now even reaching 200,000-fold divine power.
At this rate, he was at a disadvantage.
“Beast God Domain!” Jian Wushuang shouted with equal fervor.
In his normal state, he had reached his peak.
With a power of 198,000-fold!
Boom!
Jian Wushuang gathered Qi in both hands, unleashing countless violent Qi waves, directly charging towards Shi Jiu.
The Qi waves surrounded them, relentlessly attacking.
Shi Jiu allowed Jian Wushuang’s attacks to come, bearing them all.
