Gazing at the towering might of the great path, countless people in the surrounding area looked up at the battlefield, and their hearts trembled.
Xing Kai had wanted to kill Ye Futian to prove his Spiritual Heart because of what had happened at the Peach Banquet.
However, he had lost to Ye Futian and Yu Sheng.
Now, it seemed to be the exact opposite.
Ye Futian wanted to kill Xing Kai by force. He wanted to kill him before the Ninth Servant's will descended upon him.
Everyone knew how much power Ye Futian had used in the Battle of Qianye City back then. He had been able to overpower several Holiness of Nirvanas, and several Holiness of Nirvanas had died at his hands. The Saint Lord of Jiuyang dared not touch him, and even Gai Huang was unable to do anything to him.
But this time, how much power did Ye Futian intend to use? Would it be the same as last time?
Furthermore, just how powerful could the special Mark of God of War that the Ninth Servant had placed on Xing Kai be?
If the Ninth Servant were to show up in person, there would be no suspense in the battle. Even if Ye Futian were to call upon Emperor Kua's will like he did last time, he would only be borrowing Emperor Kua's power. He would not be able to stop the Ninth Servant, who stood at the pinnacle of Holiness of Nirvana.
But this time, the Ninth Servant was only using the mark of the god of war and borrowing Xing Kai's power. It was impossible for him to bring his own powers to bear.
The Halberd of Time and Space was imbued with the ultimate way of fire. Ye Futian's Spirit Orb seemed to have infused all of it into the weapon. A terrifying vortex of Flames of the Way appeared between heaven and earth, surging into the Halberd of Time and Space in a frenzy, causing it to burn. It turned into an extremely holy Halberd of Time and Space, which went for Xing Kai's throat.
Ye Futian's fiery eyes were extremely cold, and his murderous intent was as intense as the flames.
In the Ancient Imperial City, a figure stood on top of a palace. His aura was monstrous and billowing, enveloping the heavens and earth in an instant.
The vast and boundless Ancient Imperial City seemed to be enveloped by this monstrous pressure. Everyone in the vicinity of the Ancient Imperial City's City Lord Mansion felt their hearts tremble violently.
What was going on?
They lifted their heads and looked at the peak of the Ancient Imperial City. They could vaguely see the Ninth Servant hovering in the air, looking far away. His will surged wildly as he headed off into the distance.
His long robe fluttered in the wind, containing an overbearing and unparalleled aura. He stood there like a god.
Furthermore, the Ninth Servant was filled with intense murderous intent.
Ye Futian of Qianye City wanted to kill Xing Kai right in front of him.
As the guardian of the descendants of Battle Emperors, the meaning of his existence was to protect their growth, to witness them surpass themselves, to step into the legendary realm, and to achieve the achievements of the past Battle Emperors.
How could he watch Xing Kai and Xing Qiu die?
No one would have been able to kill them. No one would have been able to threaten Xing Kai or Xing Qiu's life.
He had to kill.
Did Ye Futian really think that he would be able to kill Xing Kai by activating Emperor Kua's will?
He had no idea what the Mark of the God of War represented.
The Ninth Servant lifted his arm and pointed his finger forward. The space before him shook as if it was about to be pierced by that finger.
At the same time, in the faraway Crimson Dragon City, Xing Kai also raised his arm and pointed forward.
A shadow seemed to have appeared on Xing Kai's body at that very moment. It was as if the shadow did not belong to Xing Kai. Ye Futian seemed to have seen another figure tens of thousands of miles away through that shadow. It was that peerless figure who stood at the very top of the Ancient Imperial City.
That finger attack did not seem to have been unleashed by Xing Kai, but by that figure.
That finger attack seemed to have gathered the great path of heaven and earth at one point, landing on the Halberd of Time and Space.
He was able to fight against the Halberd of Time and Space with his finger. That was a very powerful confidence.
A terrifying dark vortex seemed to have appeared where the finger and the Halberd of Time and Space clashed, twisting the great path and devouring their surroundings. The will of fire burned everything and rushed towards that finger. But at the same time, Ye Futian felt his arm tremble violently. It was as if he was unable to hold the Halberd of Time and Space. That heavy power penetrated him, seemingly intending to pierce through his body through the Halberd of Time and Space.
Ye Futian was sent flying with a grunt. Where their attacks collided, a dull rumble was heard. The terrifying vortex destroyed everything.
Xing Kai's finger was wreathed in flames as if it had been scorched. A powerful will of the great path covered it, healing the damaged parts.
It was apparent that both of them were borrowing power, and both had obvious flaws. They were not powerful enough on their own.
Xing Kai's flesh and blood was unable to withstand the flames.
Ye Futian's borrowed body was also unable to withstand the power of the Ninth Servant's attack, which was able to cut through the Halberd of Time and Space and injure him.
Borrowing Emperor Kua's power was not Emperor Kua himself, after all. He was still a Proving Holiness saint. Furthermore, he did not fully activate that power this time. He was suppressing it, worried that he would suffer a powerful backlash.
Xing Kai faced Ye Futian. At that moment, Ye Futian felt as if the Ninth Servant of the Ancient Imperial City was looking at him from afar. That unparalleled bearing was unparalleled, and it seemed as if he could not be shaken.
He was at the pinnacle below Renhuang, a Holiness of Nirvanas on the Regional King Ranking.
He was borrowing Xing Kai's body, yet he was using his own power. What kind of method was that?
But then again, no matter what method he used, the Ninth Servant would have had to pay a price to be able to do that.
At that moment, Ye Futian saw Xing Kai raise his hand and grab at the air. Suddenly, the great path of heaven and earth flowed in a frenzy. The space where he was seemed to have been isolated. Endless will of the great path shrouded and pressed down. It was as if endless palm prints of victory had been born from it, circling around them.
"The might of Holiness of Nirvana." Everyone's hearts trembled violently. That was the Ninth Servant's comprehension. Even though he was not there, he was still borrowing the great path from afar.
They looked at the center of the battlefield. Ye Futian's body was shrouded in the will of the great path. The space around him seemed to have been isolated by the will of the great path, making it impossible for anyone to step in. The space was suppressed, intending to kill Ye Futian within.
Ye Futian gripped the Halberd of Time and Space tightly in his hand. His body seemed to have been scorched red. Their surroundings were burning. A towering fiery god of war coalesced. He stared at the figure before him, and the fiery light from his eyes seemed to be able to burn the space around him.
"Boom!" The flames of the great path burst, and Ye Futian's body trembled. He seemed to be in pain, but his eyes were extremely determined.
Seeing Ye Futian's eyes, the Ninth Servant of the Ancient Imperial City's killing intent burned even more.
He had a vague understanding of why Xing Kai had lost.
He extended his hand and clenched his fist. In an instant, the palm prints of the great path surrounding Ye Futian rained down in a frenzy. Their surroundings rumbled, intending to bury that space right there and then.
Furthermore, every single palm print of the great path was incredibly powerful. They streaked through the air and blasted at Ye Futian's body.
Ye Futian's body, which was a Proving Holiness saint, would not have been able to withstand the attacks, even if he had a sacred body. He would have been killed.
Ye Futian's body seemed to have turned into a sun under those terrifying attacks. Beams of sunlight shot out, just like the sun that Ye Futian had seen in Emperor Kua's ruins.
Terrifying beams of sunlight covered the entire area, shooting at the incoming palm prints of the great path.
The palm prints rumbled, intending to continue on their way to kill Ye Futian. However, they were gradually melted into nothingness until they were pierced by the divine light of the sun.
Ye Futian bathed in boundless divine fire under that powerful light. He looked like a god of war of the sun.
He stepped forward and traversed the air, lashing out with the divine fire of the sun. The Halberd of Time and Space itself seemed to be burning. The light of the flames pierced through everything as he lashed out, heading straight for Xing Kai's body.
The Ninth Servant saw him coming and took a step forward. A dazzling golden divine wall appeared before him. It was like a divine seal of the great path, howling and blasting forward.
The Halberd of Time and Space clashed with the divine seal of the great path. Incredibly violent power seemed to have shattered the air around them. However, the divine seal of the great path was swallowed by the flames at the same time. A gap appeared in the middle, and the light from the Halberd of Time and Space shot out from it. The Ninth Servant waved his hand and clashed with it, using the momentum to retreat.
The Halberd of Time and Space spat out a terrifying beam of light that continued forward, shooting at Xing Kai. At the same time, Ye Futian's fiery god of war body was also knocked back. His body shook violently, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, but it was instantly evaporated by the flames.
"Get back," a voice was heard. The Ninth Servant said as he continued to retreat. The cultivators of the Ancient Imperial City all retreated as well.
Gai Huang blasted a palm forward, and the light of space flashed. He retreated as well, taking Xing Qiu and the others with him.
Shen Tianzhan and Wu Yong stepped forward, staring coldly at those who were leaving. However, they did not chase after them. Instead, they turned around and came to Ye Futian's side.
"Let's go." Ye Futian retracted his aura and turned around to leave. While he did not bring out his full power like last time, it still took a lot out of him, and he was badly injured.
But then again, the Ninth Servant probably did not have it easy. After all, he was borrowing Xing Kai's body to fight, and his powers were greatly restricted.
The people of Qianye City retreated in another direction.
Countless people in the area watched as they left, and their hearts were slightly shaken.
If the Ninth Servant had not appeared in that battle, Ye Futian would have probably killed Xing Kai.
Furthermore, after the Ninth Servant's will descended, Ye Futian still intended to kill him.
However, the Ninth Servant's powers were too great. Even with the seal of the god of war, it was as if he had descended himself, bringing out Holiness of Nirvana level powers.
The conflict between the two sides was bound to intensify after that battle.
Furthermore, with Crimson Dragon City powerful, neither side had much to worry about.
There was probably going to be a huge storm coming up!
