Having been missing for a long time, Yan Zhaoge had suddenly reappeared, accompanied by a Martial Saint and protected by a supreme treasure of the Myriad Dragon Palace. This had truly surpassed the predictions of those of the Sacred Sun Clan.
However, Huang Xu still decided to make a move. Since he dared to make a move, he naturally had full confidence.
Although he had lost the Great Sun Heaven Measuring Ruler, the Heaven Cleaving Axe was also a Sacred Weapon. Although it had been heavily injured and had yet to fully recuperate, its vitality had already recovered, and Huang Xu had gradually familiarized himself with this Sacred Weapon.
Whether it was that unfamiliar Martial Saint or the strange palace, they were currently being held back by the two Martial Saints of the Radiant Light Sect.
Those within Broad Creed Mountain were blocked, unable to leave.
If that foreign Martial Saint dared to give the Imperious Cold Martial Armour to Jin Jie, he himself would not be able to stand against Jin Jie.
With that, with the Heaven Cleaving Axe in hand, Huang Xu was naturally confident of taking down Yan Zhaoge of the Martial Grandmaster realm. Therefore, he had made a move.
While this might arouse the dissatisfaction of Yang Zhanhua and Jin Jie, the Sacred Sun Clan still had to put up a good performance, otherwise they would inevitably be looked down upon by others.
And so, Huang Xu made his move, and then …
Then, he was stunned.
The Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners by the side were all stunned as well.
Even Jin Jie who was currently clashing with the Northern Ocean Clone was momentarily dazed.
A Saint Weapon was forced to retreat by a bamboo cane?
Was that still a bamboo cane?
Could it be some kind of special treasure?
Is that why I can't see anything special from the outside?
But no matter how he looked at it, apart from the faint purple glow, it was just an ordinary dark green bamboo joint.
There was no spiritual qi leaking out, nor was there the slightest manifestation of any unique energy. Even when it came into contact with the Heaven Cleaving Axe and repelled the Heaven Cleaving Axe in that instant, he could not feel anything special.
But it was precisely this unremarkable bamboo cane that had repelled the Sacred Artifact, the Heaven Cleaving Axe, and had even shattered the high-grade spirit artifact, the Nine Sun Robe, that Huang Xu carried with him, with a single cane strike.
The Nine Sun Robe, the accompanying high-grade spirit artifact of the Chief of the Sacred Sun Clan.
The Great Sun Heaven Measuring Ruler was generally held in the hands of the clan's strongest expert, not necessarily for the sole use of the clan's Chief. And this Nine Sun Robe was equivalent to the status symbol of the Sacred Sun Clan's Chief.
But now, it had been destroyed by a seemingly ordinary bamboo stick in an instant!
Huang Xu was dumbstruck, and he felt his vision go black as he almost fell from midair.
"This kid is so weird!" Looking at the dark green bamboo cane in Yan Zhaoge's hand and then at the Northern Ocean Clone before him, Jin Jie felt a chill within his heart, "This Martial Saint does not have his own independent thoughts, instead being a clone refined by this kid!"
"A great grandmaster martial artist refined a Martial Sage into a doppelganger?!"
Sucking in a deep breath, appraising Yan Zhaoge earnestly for the first time, Jin Jie was even more shocked, "His true age is not much older than his outward appearance. At such a young age, an Essence Talisman Martial Grandmaster?!"
He composed himself, his sword-light expanding, waves surging all the way to ten thousand feet as he attacked towards Yan Zhaoge.
"Kid, let's see if your bamboo branch can break the sword in my hand."
The Northern Ocean Clone laughed coldly, a dazzling golden spear suddenly appearing within his hands, its shaft covered entirely in dragon scales.
With a thrust of the spear, the dragons roared!
Having obtained so many dragon corpses in the dragon tomb and also having the Northern Ocean Clone as a Martial Saint, Yan Zhaoge's artifact forging arts could be displayed to the fullest.
Sacred Artifacts were hard to forge, but forging high-grade spirit artifacts within a short period of time was nothing more than a walk in the park.
This spear of the Northern Ocean Clone's was not a high-grade spirit artifact, instead being the model of a Sacred Artifact. While it had yet to enter the Martial Saint realm, it possessed incomparable power.
Garbed in the Imperious Cold Martial Armour and wielding a spear, the Northern Ocean Martial Saint's strength far surpassed when he had been bare-handed earlier.
With a Kunpeng Descending Wings, the jade green sword-light that spanned tens of thousands of feet was directly extinguished, the spear pointed straight at Jin Jie's forehead.
Shocked, Jin Jie retracted his sword to defend, barely managing to block the spear.
At the same time, after having repelled the Heaven Cleaving Axe once more, Yan Zhaoge swung his dark green bamboo cane in a circle in mid-air, striking towards the sword in Jin Jie's hand!
Jin Jie's immense strength as a Martial Saint was suppressed by the Northern Ocean Clone and the Imperious Cold Martial Armour as he was hard pressed to exert it. He could only watch helplessly as Yan Zhaoge's cane directly broke the high-grade spirit artifact sword in his hand into two!
"As I see it, it can be broken." Yan Zhaoge laughed, "This bamboo cane of mine is not that useful in beating people. Still, it should still be of some use against various treasures."
His words not only angered Huang Xu to the point that his vision darkened once more, even Jin Jie felt stifled to the point of wanting to vomit blood.
It should still be of some use?
Beating a Sacred Artifact into retreat, beating a high-grade spirit artifact directly to the point of collapse!
Jin Jie sucked in a deep breath, swivelling his head to look at Huang Xu as he roared fiercely, "Give me that axe."
Huang Xu could no longer hold anything back now as he hurriedly agreed.
However, Yan Zhaoge's Northern Ocean Clone came over once more, the Dragon Scales Spear in his hand sweeping horizontally between the two.
Jin Jie's gaze turned cold, "Do you really think that a first level Martial Saint can block us?"
Jade green light surged madly about his entire body, transforming into a sword-aura that resembled jade, condensing into a tangible form as it was sturdy and sharp, seemingly indestructible.
The sword-aura rampaged through the horizon, space condensing wherever the jade light passed before shattering!
However, he discovered that Yan Zhaoge's Northern Ocean Clone did not attack as he instead stood unmoving where he was, streams of light also circulating from the acupoints of his entire body.
An icy sea of five thousand kilometres condensed above the Northern Ocean Clone's head, numerous ice dragons bobbing within it.
An incomparably huge Kun Peng rushed out from the deep sea, transforming into a great Peng.
However, with a flash of light, the Kun Peng actually split into two.
The Kun fish returned to the water, and the Great Peng soared into the sky.
The Northern Ocean Clone's entire aura was no longer the same. Even without the Imperious Cold Martial Armour, Jin Jie would not be able to dominate him.
"Let me correct a misunderstanding of yours," Yan Zhaoge smiled, "This clone of mine is not at the first level of the Martial Saint realm."
He had obtained many top-notch absolute arts and cultivated them successfully, improving even further.
More importantly, he had refined a large amount of essence energy left behind by the True Dragon in the dragon tomb into his body.
After the vast, surging power had been integrated with his martial arts, Yan Zhaoge's Northern Ocean Clone had stepped into the second level of the Martial Saint realm!
The Northern Ocean Clone gripped the Dragon Scales Spear with both hands, stabbing out with it. Kunpeng and Kunpeng combined attacks accompanied by a surging icy sea, instantly shattering Jin Jie's jade sword-aura into smithereens!
Roaring, the Northern Ocean Clone struck out with a spear once more, forcing Jin Jie to hurriedly retreat.
On the other side, Huang Xu was shocked.
He currently felt regret, feeling that he had been too hasty.
Still, seeing that the Myriad Dragon Palace was on the verge of being unable to suppress Yang Zhanhua and the Dawn Sun Crown, Huang Xu felt slightly reassured.
He hurriedly retreated.
As long as Yang Zhanhua and the Dawn Sun Crown extricated themselves and joined forces with Jin Jie, victory would immediately be reversed.
However, Yan Zhaoge arrived before Huang Xu in a single step, the dark green bamboo cane in his hand striking downwards, instantly causing Huang Xu to nearly lose his grip on the Heaven Cleaving Axe.
Looking at Huang Xu, Yan Zhaoge smiled coldly, "Right, this thing does not belong to your Sacred Sun Clan. You won't feel pained if it is broken."
He drew a circle with the bamboo cane in his hand, his movements turning from ferocious to gentle.
The bamboo cane pressed down on the Heaven Cleaving Axe, suppressing it such that it was unable to move.
Huang Xu's expression changed greatly.
Yan Zhaoge's bamboo cane flicked lightly, sending the Heaven Cleaving Axe to the side.
Then, he raised his left hand high into the air, striking down towards Huang Xu with a palm!
Huang Xu emitted a muffled groan, striking upwards with a palm.
A heavenly altar that resembled a pagoda whilst also an altar rose, shining with all-encompassing sunlight as eight great golden suns slowly rose into the air.
However, Yan Zhaoge's palm struck the heavens, a Cyclic Heavenly Seal mightily slamming down, directly shattering that great golden sun along with that heavenly altar!
Yan Zhaoge's tone was cold and indifferent, "Today, the sun sets."
The terrifying momentum of his palm swept along the shattered golden light, resembling the descent of the sky as the great sun was extinguished.
Huang Xu's eyes seemed on the verge of imploding as his brain was smashed apart by Yan Zhaoge's heaven-flipping palm! (To be continued.)
