"Honoured guest?" Zhou Dian raised his brow and looked at Yi Quan mockingly, "Are you joking?"
He thought that Yi Quan was just joking. After all, even from fifty kilometres away, he could clearly see Yang Kai's figure and understand Yang Kai's cultivation. How could such a Human Race brat become Yi Quan's honoured guest?
"This King is not in the mood to joke with you," Yi Quan coldly snorted, "Get out of my Heavenly Monster Valley, or don't blame this King for being impolite."
"It seems that … you don't intend to hand this person over!" Zhou Dian's eyes darkened as he stared coldly at Yi Quan.
Yi Quan coldly snorted and no longer said anything, slowly pushing his strength to the limit.
At this point, both Great Masters knew that it was useless to rely on words. They could only see the truth through their actions.
Everything in the world seemed to freeze at this moment. The gazes of the two Third-Order Great Emperors collided, sending invisible sparks flying into the void.
Many Monster Race Masters saw that the situation was bad and used their Movement Skills to disperse, not even looking back.
Lian Yan did the same. His entire body turned into a red light and retreated several dozen kilometres away in an instant.
Unparalleled fighting intent filled the air as a terrifying Emperor Pressure descended. Space began to tremble as the gravel on the ground slowly floated up …
Even though he was fifty kilometres away, Yang Kai still felt cold all over. If it weren't for the fact that he didn't have a body of flesh and blood, even breathing would have become a luxury.
In a flash, Yuan Fei and Bai Lu, the two Monster Race Masters, appeared beside Yang Kai and nodded slightly to him.
The two no longer had the hostility and rejection from before. Their purpose in coming here was only to protect Yang Kai.
"Where's Purple Squirrel?" Yang Kai asked.
"Young Master has been placed in a safe place," Bai Lu replied softly. "Young Master Yang doesn't need to worry."
She even changed the way she addressed Yang Kai. Obviously, it was because Yi Quan had called him honoured guest.
Yang Kai nodded slightly and focused his strength into his eyes, looking into the distance.
This was a battle between Third-Order Emperor Realm Masters. If he could observe it, it would definitely be of great benefit to him, so he didn't want to miss such an exciting event.
Right at this moment, Zhou Dian had moved.
He leaped. Zhou Dian flew up from his mount and charged high into the sky. A ball of light burst out from his body, and when the light dissipated, a halberd had shockingly appeared in his hand. The halberd was over ten meters long and as thick as a person's arm. Its might was heavy, and it swept through the Spirit Qi in all directions. He seemed to have the ability to stir up the world.
As soon as the halberd appeared, the aura on Zhou Dian's body increased explosively. The energy on the surface of his body surged like boiling water.
This was not a Soul-type artifact, but a weapon condensed from Zhou Dian's own Spiritual Energy. However, this halberd had been with Zhou Dian for many years and had been refined by him using a secret technique. Although it was not a Soul-type artifact. However, it had many miraculous uses, many of which were not inferior to any Soul-type artifacts.
Holding the halberd in his hand, Zhou Dian laughed maniacally. His entire body turned into a stream of light as he swooped down towards Yi Quan, his roar resounding through the world.
"Yi Quan, let this General see if you've made any progress over the years!"
This strike was like a startled swan, like a falling star. It was as if it was about to split the world apart. Every spectating cultivator, regardless of their cultivation, felt a stabbing pain in their eyes, as if they were about to be blinded. At the same time, a chill ran down their spines.
Yang Kai was greatly shocked.
Although he had witnessed the brilliance of several Third-Order Emperor Realm Masters during this period of time, he had never seen such a Master go all out. Only at this moment did he understand how powerful a Third-Order Emperor Realm Master was.
They were almost invincible existences in this world.
Facing this shocking attack, Yi Quan just stood in place, motionless. He looked ahead with contempt, as if he didn't put Zhou Dian in his eyes at all.
* Chi chi … *
A thick pillar of energy visible to the naked eye rushed out from the halberd, transforming into the shape of a dragon. It roared as it pounced towards Yi Quan with bared fangs and claws.
"It seems …" Yi Quan said indifferently, "You've forgotten the pain after the scars have healed. That battle two thousand years ago, have you … forgotten?"
Saying so, Yi Quan flicked his finger.
A thin and weak gadfly-like attack flew out to meet the dragon-shaped energy.
The gap between the two was immeasurable, giving off the feeling of an ant trying to shake a giant tree.
But …
When the gadfly-like attack met the dragon-shaped energy, a dazzling light burst out. The light was so bright that it covered everything in the world and swallowed the giant dragon whole.
The giant dragon roared again and again, causing Zhou Dian's face to change drastically.
Yi Quan stepped on the spot and disappeared.
* Ding … *
A light sound rang out, and by the time everyone came back to their senses, they were shocked to find that Yi Quan had already arrived in front of Zhou Dian and stabbed the long sword in his hand into Zhou Dian's halberd, causing sparks to fly everywhere.
Zhou Dian looked at the long sword with a blank look on his face.
When he fought Yi Quan two thousand years ago, the other party did not use such a weapon. Furthermore, this long sword did not look like it was condensed from Spiritual Energy at all, so he did not know what kind of treasure it was.
But this doubt only lasted for a moment. In a battle between Masters of this level, the slightest hesitation could cost them their lives, so Zhou Dian quickly calmed himself down and shook his halberd, forcing Yi Quan to retreat.
At the same time, a burst of pure Spiritual Energy suddenly burst out and bombarded Yi Quan. It was unknown what kind of exquisite Soul Secret Technique he was using.
Yi Quan's face turned solemn as his Spiritual Energy surged and he used a Soul Secret Technique to neutralize this attack.
Both of them were Third-Order Emperor Realm Masters, so even if there was a slight difference in strength, it was not by much. So, even though the onlookers could not see clearly what was going on, it was definitely extremely dangerous.
One man, one monster. The long-cherished wish that had been unfulfilled for two thousand years finally collided today, bursting into dazzling sparks.
As their Souls collided, the light on their bodies flickered wildly, but their hands did not stop moving either. As the long sword and halberd clashed, a dense clanging sound rang out.
The sword stabbed, flicked, cut, coiled, intercepted, gently and nimbly, while the halberd slashed, hooked, chopped, chopped, and chopped. The two Divine Armaments, two great Masters, seemed to be stirring up the world.
In an instant, the battle became a mess.
Their figures crisscrossed, back and forth, and the sound of metal clashing rang out.
The sword was complex and gentle. The sword light was like a star that shot out in all directions, overwhelming the onlookers.
The halberd was fierce and overbearing. The halberd was like a wave that slapped against the shore, rolling out a supreme power.
Secret techniques, energy, and exquisite movements intertwined to create an intoxicating scene, dazzling and colorful.
All the onlookers stared at the battle intently.
On the battlefield, time seemed to have become erratic. The man and the monster were sometimes as slow as a turtle, and sometimes as fast as lightning. The visual conflict between the front and back seemed to have an invisible impact that shook the hearts of every spectator.
"Ugh …"
Finally, a Monster Race Master could not bear it anymore. His face darkened as he took a few steps back, as if he had suffered some kind of injury. He clutched his chest and slowly closed his eyes, not daring to watch anymore.
As time passed, more and more people were in this situation.
At first, it was only the cultivator of the First Order Dao Source Realm. Then it was the Second-Order, Third-Order …
After an incense stick worth of time, even Yuan Fei and Bai Lu of the Emperor Realm had to push their strength to resolve the discomfort in their bodies. They forced themselves to continue watching.
They did not want to miss this wonderful battle.
In a trance, Yuan Fei seemed to catch a glimpse of something from the corner of his eye and quickly turned to look at Yang Kai.
The next moment, Yuan Fei's mouth suddenly opened wide, revealing a dumbfounded look.
Because he found that Yang Kai's eyes were wide open as he stared fixedly at the battlefield, his pair of clear eyes reflecting the figures of the two masters fighting a few dozen kilometres away, as if he was completely unaffected by the battle taking place.
Not only that, he also showed a thoughtful look from time to time.
This scene stunned Yuan Fei and he couldn't help but quietly poke Bai Lu.
"What are you doing!?" Bai Lu was paying close attention to the battle over there when she was disturbed by Yuan Fei, so she snapped angrily.
Yuan Fei pursed his lips to the side.
Bai Lu looked over suspiciously, but in the next moment, she also showed a look of astonishment.
"This little brat … is very strange," Yuan Fei whispered to Bai Lu.
Even as strong as the two of them were, they still felt somewhat uncomfortable at this moment. At most, they could only watch the battle for a while longer, but Yang Kai, who was weaker than them, was completely unaffected. How could they not be concerned?
"The person Master has taken a fancy to is really extraordinary!" Bai Lu gently nodded.
Just as the two of them were whispering to each other, a pure Spiritual Energy suddenly spread out from Yang Kai's body and enveloped him. From this Spiritual Energy, an indescribable charm gradually emerged.
Yang Kai's entire being seemed to be undergoing some kind of magical change.
"Emperor intent!" Yuan Fei exclaimed involuntarily. "He's actually touched emperor intent?"
At this moment, Yuan Fei clearly sensed something and cried out in alarm.
Bai Lu also looked at Yang Kai with bright eyes, and after a while, nodded slightly, "Indeed! Although it's still very shallow, there is no doubt that it is Emperor Intent. Could it be that he wants to break through to the Emperor Realm here? "
As soon as this thought came to mind, Bai Lu was shocked.
Breaking through in the Divine Ascension World was not a simple matter. Every breakthrough was a life or death situation, and a single mistake could result in the destruction of one's Soul. Because the living beings here did not have flesh and blood, they could not rely on the power of their flesh and blood to resist the World Energy baptism. All they could rely on was their own Soul, so naturally, it was much more difficult for them to break through here compared to a cultivator outside.
At this moment, Yi Quan was still fighting, so if something happened to Yang Kai while he was breaking through, they wouldn't be able to explain it to Yi Quan.
For a moment, Bai Lu couldn't help but be on edge.
She was obviously overthinking things.
Yang Kai was not a living being in the Divine Ascension World. Although he entered here as a Soul Avatar, he still had his own physical body. At this moment, even if he was affected by the battle between the two Masters and had touched some Emperor Intent, before his physical strength improved to a certain level, even if he could make his Soul break through to the level of an existence in the Emperor Realm, it was impossible for him to truly reach that level.
