The man stood in front of Xing Jue and the others with his hands behind his back. His snow-white robes fluttered in the wind and he looked like a deity that had descended from the heavens. His entire body gave off an otherworldly aura.
As for the energy ripples that were still spreading, they seemed to be obstructed by the man. They rolled and churned half a meter away from the man before coming to a stop.
Although he could not see the man's face, the gentle aura that was being emitted from the man made Xing Jue feel extremely comfortable. It was indescribable and he could only stare blankly at the mysterious man who had suddenly appeared.
"Wu ~"
At this moment, Dugu Haoyu, who had already sunk into the soil, struggled to climb out of the soil after Hun Zhan's pressure was gone. He wanted to see what was happening in front of him.
"You … you … you are?"
When he caught sight of the man before him, his body actually started to tremble violently. His face was filled with disbelief, and could only be described as shock. Even though it was only his back view, Dugu Haoyu could sense an extremely familiar feeling from this man's body. It was this special feeling that caused him to be in such disbelief.
At this moment, the boundless energy ripples gradually dissipated and the man's figure appeared in front of everyone's eyes. The Spirit Eater Tribe members were all stunned by the man's appearance. Although they did not recognize the man in front of them, they could imagine that the man must have extraordinary strength to be able to block Hun Zhan's attack.
"… …"
However, compared to them, Hun Zhan, who was standing in the sky, was like Dugu Haoyu. His body was violently trembling. This was a sign of extreme emotional fluctuations. Furthermore, one could clearly sense the emotion on his face, which had changed beyond recognition. It was fury, an indescribable fury. Furthermore, his eyes were filled with a crazy killing intent!
"Dugu Changyi!!!!"
Suddenly, a crazy roar rang out from Hun Zhan's mouth. The formless sound wave was so powerful that it instantly engulfed every corner of the Sky Martial Continent. The boundless pressure caused everyone to cover their ears in order to resist the penetrating power of the sound.
At this moment, half of the ground below had collapsed. If it was not for the fact that everyone present was a Combat Emperor, they would have already died.
"What? Dugu Changyi? "
When Hun Zhan's voice rang out, the expressions of Yao Yutian and Lady Dan, who were about to rush over to the Mysterious Hall, changed drastically. Waves of disbelief struck their hearts.
But at this moment, the two of them did not stop because of this. Instead, they forcefully suppressed the confusion in their hearts and increased their speed as they flew towards the Profound Hall.
"Fa … Father?"
Hun Zhan's roar had clearly entered Xing Jue's ears. At this moment, when he looked at the man in front of him again, Xing Jue did not dare to believe what he was seeing.
The word 'father' kept coming out of his mouth, but for some unknown reason, he was unable to say it. He could only stare blankly at Dugu Changyi, not even daring to blink. He was deeply afraid that when he opened his eyes again, Dugu Changyi would no longer be there.
"Changyi … is it really you?"
At this moment, Xing Jue was not the only one who was excited. The heavily injured Dugu Haoyu was also excited. In fact, when Dugu Changyi appeared, Dugu Haoyu had already suspected that he was Dugu Changyi. However, he still did not dare to believe the truth in front of him. That was because he had personally witnessed Dugu Changyi being killed by the Profound Sky Demon Sealing Talisman.
Buzz!
At this moment, Dugu Changyi, who was standing with his hands behind his back, gently waved his sleeves. A strange energy barrier enveloped Xing Jue, Li Xiaohan, and Dugu Haoyu. At the same time, a strange temperature spread out from the three of them.
At this moment, the pain that filled every part of their bodies was rapidly decreasing. Even their wounds were rapidly healing. Such a strange effect was something that even a Heavenly Treasure Pill could not achieve.
"I'm sorry that I'm late!"
However, just when Xing Jue and the other two were amazed by the strange energy barrier, Dugu Changyi finally turned his head and revealed his face.
It was a face that had experienced the vicissitudes of life, but it was filled with determination. His facial features were extremely similar to Xing Jue's imagination. Especially his deep eyes, which were filled with tenacity and wisdom that ordinary people did not have.
When this pair of eyes was sizing him up, Xing Jue could clearly feel the blood in his body boiling.
After sizing up Xing Jue, Dugu Changyi suddenly squinted his eyes. The corners of his mouth formed a faint smile. Although he did not say anything, this smile alone conveyed his affirmation of Xing Jue and his endless yearning for him for the past twenty years.
"Dugu Changyi, you actually did not die?" At this moment, a roar filled with anger rang out in the air again.
"Oh, why? Hun Zhan, is it that hard to believe? " Hearing Hun Zhan's question, Dugu Changyi reluctantly shifted his gaze away from Xing Jue and looked at Hun Zhan in the sky.
"Could it be that it was just a clone? Impossible, with my Soul Strength, it is impossible for me to not recognize a clone. " Hun Zhan thought back to that scene and still did not dare to believe that Dugu Changyi had actually escaped death right under his nose.
"It is because you are too confident in your Soul Strength that you allowed me to pass with a clone. Since I can seal your soul in an instant and prevent you from using your Spiritual Explosion, it is naturally possible for me to avoid your Soul Detection."
Dugu Changyi smiled at Hun Zhan. There was no anger on his face, but this casual smile was the most sarcastic mockery in Hun Zhan's eyes.
"Hmph, just nice!"
"Even in my dreams, I have wanted to personally kill you. Today, you have fulfilled my wish."
"Die!"
Suddenly, Hun Zhan swung his right arm and struck out with his palm. Layers of berserk energy rippled in the air.
"Hu hu hu ~"
Soon after, a majestic black tornado formed in the air. The tornado swept across the horizon and directly fell towards Dugu Changyi. Such a terrifying attack, just the pressure it emitted was enough to make it difficult for everyone to resist.
"Quickly, leave this place."
Feeling the pressure emitted by the black tornado, Hun Ji realized that the situation was not good. Although she did not know if Dugu Changyi could withstand Hun Zhan's attack, if they continued to stay in this battle, just the aftershocks of the battle would be enough to kill them.
Before the attack arrived, the pressure was already there. The majestic pressure caused Dugu Changyi's robe and hair to flutter. However, he maintained a calm smile on his face and did not even blink.
At this moment, the black tornado arrived with a loud bang. With such a powerful force, even Xing Jue and the other two who were inside the energy barrier tensed up and broke out in a cold sweat for Dugu Changyi.
"Disperse!"
However, just as the tornado was about to land, Dugu Changyi let out a soft shout. The extremely violent tornado suddenly stopped a few meters away from him and began to gradually dissipate. After a while, it completely disappeared without a trace. What shocked everyone the most was that Dugu Changyi did not even move a finger to dissolve such a powerful attack.
"How is this possible …"
"Could it be … Could it be … Could it be that you …"
At this moment, the most shocked person among the crowd was Hun Zhan. He was currently standing in the air with an extremely ugly expression. His eyes were wide open and filled with disbelief.
"Heh … Hun Zhan, in order to find the Saint Stones, I have searched almost every corner of the continent. I have visited countless ancient sites and forbidden grounds. However, in the end, I only found two Saint Stones."
"The Saint Stones are extremely powerful. They contain energy that I have never seen before. Even so, I am certain that only two Saint Stones are not enough for me to break through to Battle-Saint in one go."
"At that time, my identity as a descendant of the Spirit Eater Clan was exposed by you. Therefore, I faked my death and did not even tell my closest brother and lover. It was all so that you would believe that I was truly dead."
"I endured the guilt and longing for my brother, Shui Yue, and Jue 'er. I hid my identity and suffered for over twenty years just to wait for a special day."
"That day was the appearance of a heavenly phenomenon. I knew that there were not many Saint Stones left on the continent. In order to break through to Battle-Saint, I could only wait for the arrival of another calamity."
"And now, I have finally reached the level of a Battle-Saint!"
Dugu Changyi stared at Hun Zhan with a burning gaze. He explained everything that had happened to him word by word. At this moment, the truth of how he had managed to survive until today and how he had become a Battle-Saint was completely revealed.
"Impossible. The Saint Demon is so powerful. How could it be killed by you alone?" Although Dugu Changyi had clearly stated the truth, Hun Zhan still refused to believe his words.
"Hahahaha …"
"Hun Zhan, how can a scum like you, who is stained with the blood of your own clan, understand my actions?"
"Enough of your nonsense. Today, I will settle the old debts of the past."
Bang.
Suddenly, Dugu Changyi took a step forward. A majestic energy soared into the sky. At this moment, Dugu Changyi's figure had already disappeared.
When he reappeared, he was already behind Hun Zhan. His palm, which could crush a mountain range into dust, was heading straight for Hun Zhan's neck.
"Shameless boasting!"
Hun Zhan seemed to be prepared for Dugu Changyi's sudden attack. With a twist of his wrist, the Middle Grade Spiritual Weapon, the Black Curse Sword, appeared in his hand. As his figure retreated, the Black Curse Sword was already slashing at Dugu Changyi's arm.
Clang.
However, Hun Zhan had never expected that Dugu Changyi would not dodge his powerful attack. Instead, he twisted his wrist and forcefully grabbed the Black Curse Sword in his hand.
Swoosh!
After that, Hun Zhan forcefully pulled his arm back. Hun Zhan felt his hand go numb. The Black Curse Sword was already in Dugu Changyi's hand.
