Lu Zhou tore through space and arrived in front of Hong Jian before he pushed his hands out.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Hong Jian had no choice but to strike with his palm as well.
The duo continued to exchange palm strikes. One moment, they appeared in the east of Fallen Gods Mountain, and the next moment, they appeared in the west. They flashed back and forth as they fought at the same frequency.
Lu Zhou’s palm seals grew stronger and stronger as his fighting spirit soared.
After 15 minutes, they fought to a draw.
Hong Jian’s eyes widened in anger as he said, “How’s it possible that you’re only a lesser Saint?”
Lu Zhou replied in a deep voice, “It’s too late for you to find out.”
Boom!
The duo flew back at the same time and faced each other from afar.
Seeing that the four Feather tribesmen had been tortured beyond recognition, Hong Jian could no longer care about them. He wiped the blood off the comer of his lips and said, “No matter what, you have to die today.”
suddenly, the blood Hong Jian spat out dissolved into spots of light and disappeared. Following that, his body and wings began to glow red as though they were burning.
Little Yuan’er, who was constantly running around to avoid the backlash, pointed at Hong Jian and said, “Master, hurry up and kill him! He’s so annoying! Look, he’s even transforming!”
At this moment, Little Yuan’er had a feeling that once Hong Jian completed his transformation, he would become even more powerful.
At this moment, Hong Jian suddenly used the law of space.
As the space near Little Yuan’er began to ripple, Lu Zhou appeared in front of Hong Jian and said, “It’s not enough.”
A palm seal sailed out.
Hong Jian frowned, using his red wings to block in front of him.
Boom!
‘The wings managed to neutralize the force of the palm seal.
Then, Hong Jian used the law of space to move again. Alas, the results were the same. Every time he reappeared, Liu Zhou would be one step ahead of him and unleashed a palm seal at him.
“It’s still not enough,” Lu Zhou said.
Hong Jian grew more agitated the longer he fought. The frequency in which he used the law of space increased as well.
Even for Great Saints, using the power of the Dao so frequently would consume a lot of Primal Qi and take a toll on their spirit and will. When Great Saints faced opponents who had yet to become Saints, it would be easy to defeat their opponents with the power of the Dao. However, if their opponents’
power of the Dao was almost the same, the factor that determined victory would be the cultivation base.
Boom!
After blocking another palm seal, Hong Jian roared, “Void Imprisonment!”
At this time, the blood on Hong Jian’s body and in the surroundings suddenly weaved in a cage between heaven and earth. Then, the cage began to shrink.
“Ah?!” Little Yuan‘er’s expression changed drastically upon seeing this. She grabbed Conch and used the Seven Stars Cloud Treading Steps again to run away. Alas, no matter how hard she tried, she could not break free of the cage.
A victorious smile appeared on Hong Jian’s face as he said, “Let’s see how you deal with this. Lesser Saints are just lesser Saints no matter what.”
Hong Jian watched as the cage continued to shrink. His mood improved slightly. Unfortunately, it did not last for long before he heard a voice say, “Freeze.”
Once again, electric arcs appeared and swept out. They seemed even stronger than before, and they were also spreading further than before.
The masked man raised his head and said irritably, “How annoying! Can’t you wait until I finish dealing with these bird men before you freeze me?!”
This time, the range of the Hourglass of Time covered a radius of 50,000 meters.
In the forest, all the beasts turned into life-like statues. The leaves and wind froze as well. Drops of water froze in midair while ripples froze on the surface of the lake. The flying beasts froze in the sky with their wings spread out mid-flap; they did not fall.
Once again, Lu Zhou arrived in front of Hong Jian and brought Unnamed out.
Lu Zhou did not hesitate and used the Guiyuan Sword Technique, Traceless Sword, Snowy Mountain, Return and Enter Three Souls, and Primal Restoration.
The countless energy swords that shot out were all tens of thousand feet long and they pierced through Hong Jian’s chest, sending him flying back.
As soon as time flowed, the area within a radius of 10,000 meters was razed to the ground instantly. The mountain peaks that were hundreds of thousands of feet tall were cut off while the towering ancient trees fell in unison. The majestic Fallen Gods Mountain was cut like a piece of tofu, causing rocks
to tumble down.
The masked man looked around speechlessly before he said, “Is this necessary?”
In order to prevent Hong Jian from healing himself again, Lu Zhou swooped down and arrived next to Hong Jian.
“Argh!” Hong Jian cried out fiercely as his blood and vital energy burst forth like a storm in all directions. Most shockingly, his feathers detached themselves from his wings, looking like the sharpest spears.
Lu Zhou could tell the feathers were very sharp. To be safe, he retreated and erected his protective energy.
Hong Jian said fiercely, “Explode!”
Then, a pear! flew out in front of Lu Zhou and exploded with a terrifying force.
The masked man looked up in shock. “The Divine Soul Pearl? This is bad! It’s over!”
Boom!
The explosion from a Great Saint’s Divine Soul Pearl was naturally fearsome.
‘The masked man did not have time to save Lu Zhou.
From afar, Little Yuan’er glanced at the four beaten Feather tribesmen. Their feathers suddenly disappeared, and soon after, they retreated and disappeared as well. No one knew where they went.
Whoosh!
The explosion from the Divine Soul Pearl seemed to affect time and space.
Faced with absolute power, strategy, scheme, and tricks were useless. It was the same for laws. Faced with absolute power, they lost all meaning.
The laws were like a house. The person who built the house was the strongest, and those who followed the laws could enter the house. Those who did not follow the rules could not enter the house, but if they were strong enough, they could trample the house and destroy it.
Little Yuan’er held onto Conch and ran with all her might. The Nirvana Sash wrapped around them as she flashed around in a frenzy. The jade talisman had been destroyed so she could leave. No matter how she ran, she would not be able to outrun the explosive force that was sweeping out from the Fallen
Gods Mountain. At this time, she turned around and gritted her teeth, “I’ll block it!”
Then, Little Yuan’er manifested her astrolabe in front of her and Conch.
The golden astrolabe was dazzling.
As soon as Conch saw the golden astrolabe, she could not help but exclaim, “20 Birth Charts?!”
Boom!
The powerful force pushed the two girls 10,000 meters back.
Little Yuan’er had exhausted all her strength. Her astrolabe had caved in, and she had almost lost a Birth Chart.
Conch hurriedly brought her astrolabe out next to Little Yuan’er’s astrolabe to block the remaining force.
After the explosion died down, silence descended.
Little Yuan’er panted heavily. Her back was drenched in sweat. Even if she had 20 Birth Charts, it was impossible for her to fully block the explosion of a Great Saint’s Divine Soul Pearl. It was partly due to luck that they survived the disaster as well.
The two girls tried to look ahead as they gasped for air.
“Master!” Little Yuan’er’s expression was anxious. Then, she turned to Conch and said, “Wait for me here. I’ll go and save master!”
Conch cried out, “Ninth Senior Sister, you can’t go!”
Little Yuan’er said, “I can do it. I have 20 Birth Charts now! You deliberately hid your cultivation? Did you learn this from Fourth Senior Brother? When did you pass your Birth Trial? Don’t go. You’ll worry master!” Conch said as she pulled Little Yuan’er back.
Conch was slightly disappointed that Little Yuan’er hid her cultivation base from her. After all, the two had never kept secrets from each other.
Little Yuan’er said, “I don’t have the time to explain it now. I have to save master!”
Conch looked at the battlefield.
The Fallen Gods Mountain no longer existed. What remained was only a huge circular crater.
After an unknown amount of time, the dust finally settled, and they could finally see clearly.
‘A powerful energy pushed away the fog and cleansed the air.
Lu Zhou hovered in the lower part of the sky, completely unharmed. He stood with his hands on his back as he looked at the bloody Hong Jian with an indifferent gaze.
Hong Jian’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets when he saw Lu Zhou.
The duo stared at each other for a long time, and they both knew the outcome of the battle.
On the ground in front of Hong Jian, his Divine Soul Pearl was half-buried.
Hong Jian finally could no longer hold on and fell limply to the ground. He kneeled on the ground as he struggled to support his body with his arms. Fresh blood dripped to the ground continuously from the bloody hole in his chest that could no longer heal.
‘Then, Hong Jian laughed maniacally before he said tremblingly, “I… I think I know… who you are…”
Lu Zhou did not say anything as he descended to the ground and walked toward the Divine Soul Pearl.
A satisfied smile appeared on Hong Jian’s lips as he said, “It’s my honor to be able to die at your hands.”
Creak!
Hong Jian’s body suddenly froze.
Crack!
Following that, Hong Jian’s body shattered and turned into a pile of dust.
