The moonlight was like water, the hazy and pure white radiance sprinkled down. In this clear and cold sky, a few clouds were dyed with the pure radiance.
However, this did not change the tense atmosphere in the sky.
Xiao Chen's Underworld Iron Battle Armor flickered with a cold black light. The blood on it had yet to dry. The sword he pointed forward was dripping with blood. It was dyed with the blood of the divine knight and had beheaded the White Tiger Battle God. Now, it was pointed at the two half-step Martial Ancestors, causing the killing atmosphere to turn extremely cold.
The surroundings were filled with a bloody mist. The divine knight and the White Tiger Battle God retreated in horror, hugging the headless corpses like they were avoiding the plague. They disappeared into the horizon.
The Asura half-step Martial Ancestor's eyes shot out two scarlet lights as his pupils constricted. He had not expected Xiao Chen's battle armor to be so extraordinary. Even his holy sword could not leave a mark on it. This made him feel both fervent and uneasy. With such astonishing defense, how was he going to kill it?
The Skeleton Sovereign King also felt some regret. It seemed like he had been too rash this time. Now, the two huge deities formed by the two ancient Divine Formations had been killed. The situation was not good.
"Unexpectedly, after not seeing you for more than a hundred and fifty years, you have already broken through to the Earth Penetrating Realm. Furthermore, you have such a divine battle armor. I think that is most likely an Ancestor God's battle armor. Otherwise, how could it have such defensive power?"
The moment the Asura half-step Martial Ancestor said that, many of the cultivators on the ground burst into an uproar. An Ancestor God's battle armor was definitely a legendary item. Normally, it was rare to even see a half-step Martial Ancestor's treasure, not to mention an Ancestor God's battle armor and weapon.
Xiao Chen raised his sword and pointed it at the two half-step Martial Ancestors. Then, he walked forward step by step, not showing any pressure at all. His calmness and composure were somewhat frightening.
Not only did he show no fear when facing a strong half-step Martial Ancestor, he even revealed a high fighting spirit.
"What's the point of saying so much? Don't you want to take my life? In that case, make your move."
The Underworld Iron Battle Armor around Xiao Chen shone with a crystalline luster, making the two half-step Martial Ancestors feel pain in their eyes. That was not true pain but mental pressure. There was no mistaking it. That was the battle armor of an Ancestor God!
With their cultivations of Second Heaven Half Martial Ancestors, it was simply impossible for them to breach such a frightening defense.
At this moment, the two of them could be said to be in a situation where it was difficult to get off. They wanted to retreat, but they couldn't. If they did that, they would lose all face, and how would they face the world?
"In your words, the battle from more than 150 years ago has continued until now. Let's have one."
After Xiao Chen spoke to this point, he crossed three hundred meters with each step. When he arrived, he swept the sword in his hand at the two half-step Martial Ancestors. The resplendent divine light extended for dozens of kilometers, its light piercing the eyes as it tore through the world.
In the Nine Prefectures and the Four Realms, he was the only one who was not a Half-Martial Ancestor, yet he dared to brandish a bloody sword at a Half-Martial Ancestor!
"Arrogant brat!"
In any case, Old Asura and Old Skeleton's nickname was Half Ancestor. It was truly a loss of face for them to be swept away by a junior.
The Asura half-step Martial Ancestor soared into the air and dodged that divine light sweeping across the sky. The scarlet Asura Holy Sword in his hand gave off a brilliance that made the stars and moon pale in comparison. It chopped down at Xiao Chen, dyeing the entire sky scarlet. The pungent smell of blood spread in the sky, and a sea of blood appeared.
At the same time, the Skeleton Sovereign King also soared into the sky. He waved his snow-white bone staff and smashed it forward. The bone staff quickly enlarged, becoming as majestic as a white mountain. It turned into a huge mountain of white bones pressing down.
"Chi! Chi!
Chi! "War swords tore through the air. Twenty-seven war swords rushed out at the same time, breaking through the boundless sea of blood and blocking the huge mountain of white bones. They crisscrossed in the sky, creating comet-like lights.
An intense battle broke out. Soaring waves of blood and a vast sea of white bones appeared at the same time, drowning the three Great Ancestors.
Fortunately, this shocking battle took place in the distant sky. Otherwise, the earth would have been destroyed beyond recognition.
"Boom!"
Scarlet waves surged into the sky, and a scarlet sea surged in the horizon. This was the Asura Blood Sea.
Xiao Chen laid two sword formations, each with thirteen war swords. They surrounded two Half Ancestor Martial Ancestors. At the same time, he held one in his hand.
"Chi!"
The sword light spat out for dozens of kilometers, making the stars and moon pale in comparison. The war sword in Xiao Chen's hand chopped a blood spirit that charged out of the sea of blood in half.
A scalp-numbing shriek rang out. The blood spirit returned to the sea of blood to recover and prepare for another attack.
This was not a simple blood spirit. It was a strong evil spirit from the Asura half-step Martial Ancestor's world. It was condensed from the remnant soul energy of an Asura half-step Martial Ancestor. Its combat prowess was close to that of a half-step Martial Ancestor.
"Boom!"
Thousands of waves of blood surged in the sky. The blood spirit healed in the blink of an eye. It was reborn bathed in blood and launched another sneak attack.
Xiao Chen was as calm as an ancient well. He took out a black jade and poured out a drop of sparkling, translucent blood bead. Then, he smeared it evenly on the war sword.
When the blood spirit surged with boundless waves again and charged over under the cover of thousands of Blood Fiend Evil Spirits, Xiao Chen left behind an afterimage and entered the sea of blood.
"Chi!"
The sword light soared into the sky and split the sea of blood. Countless Blood Fiend Evil Spirits turned to ashes. The war sword giving off a startling scarlet light pierced the chest of the strongest blood spirit.
Immediately, azure smoke rose. The blood spirit let out a blood-curdling scream. It was incomparably mournful as it turned into a blood mist and fled.
In the distance, the Asura half-step Martial Ancestor's expression changed drastically, revealing extreme shock. He could already feel that the blood spirit was severely injured and nearly collapsed.
"That is … the blood of an Ancestor God. It is specialized in restraining Yin spirits and evil beings!"
The Skeleton Sovereign King also noticed the situation here and was incredibly shocked.
Just at this moment, Xiao Chen pressed forward with surging killing Qi.
"Rumble …"
Mountains of white bones flew out from where the Skeleton Sovereign King was. Who knew how many white bone creatures bared their fangs and claws on the bone mountains? They waved their bone sabers and soared into the sky, charging at Xiao Chen.
"Break for me!"
Xiao Chen swung his war sword and hacked forward. A piercing light illuminated the mountains and rivers, and a might pressed down. The vast white bone mountains shattered one after another, and those white bone creatures turned into ashes.
"Come, let's go to the Outer World for a decisive battle to the death!"
The Asura half-step Martial Ancestor and the Skeleton Sovereign King clenched their teeth as they struggled to break free of the sword formation and flew to the Outer World.
Xiao Chen followed closely behind. Many rainbow-like war swords surrounded him, radiating a strong fighting spirit.
The strong loose cultivators soared into the sky, wanting to see what was going on in the Outer World. Unexpectedly, a horrifying might cut off their path, filled with a destructive aura.
This was a Magic Skill that only a strong half-step Martial Ancestor could execute. This was a warning, not letting them follow. Everyone could only return resentfully.
Tonight was destined to not be a peaceful night. It would leave a deep imprint in many people's hearts.
At the summit of Miticas Peak, Lan Nuo connected to thousands of stars. Beams of divine light fell from the Outer World like a huge waterfall, all of them connected to her Divine Body.
Everything in the world, the stars in the universe, and the Outer World continuously tempered her Divine Body. It had already lasted for an entire night, and it looked like she was about to reach perfection.
Lan Nuo's skin was as fair as ice, and her beauty was unmatched. A holy radiance overflowed from her. She was about to become an eternal half-step Martial Ancestor!
The battle between half-step Martial Ancestors could no longer be seen. Everyone's gaze was focused on the summit of Miticas Peak, watching the proud Goddess of this generation.
When dawn broke in the east and the first ray of golden sunlight shone out, Lan Nuo's entire body erupted with light, cutting off the divine light connected to thousands of stars. She let out a phoenix-like cry, and the divine light spread over the entire snowy mountain.
She stretched out a slender finger and pointed at the air. Instantly, there were tens of thousands of multicolored lights and thousands of auspicious lights. A small mountain of refining materials appeared. They were all legendary peak quality divine materials!
She was going to become a half-step Martial Ancestor and refine her own Intellectual Sword at the same time. She was only one step away.
At this moment, the seven-colored cloud carried Lan Nuo and all the refining materials towards the east.
Her speed became faster and faster. In the end, she tore open the space and headed straight for the sun.
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. Lan Nuo's target was actually the sun!
The powerful rogue cultivators knew her intention. She wanted to use the Heavenly Fire inside the sun to refine the most powerful divine weapon.
It could be said that this was the most crucial step for her to become an eternal half-step Martial Ancestor. If she really succeeded, her Divine Treasure would possess an incomparably terrifying divine power.
Since ancient times, only a few people dared to take such a risk when they became an eternal half-step Martial Ancestor. They went deep into the center of the sun to refine their divine weapon.
If they succeeded, the might of the divine weapon would be unimaginable. Xing Tian's battle-axe and Heavenly Shield were the best examples. The Brass Essence was tempered by the Heavenly Fire of the sun, and it was watered by the divine radiance of millions and millions of stars. Its might reached an appalling level.
--- In the Starry Heavens, the battle reached its climax.
Xiao Chen swung his sword and directly split the scarlet sea in half. Then, he charged over like a meteor with boundless killing intent. He split the mountain of white bones in front with his sword and started a close-range fight with the two half-step Martial Ancestors. The Asura Clan's half-step Martial Ancestor's hair was disheveled, and his entire body was covered in blood. The Skeleton Sovereign King was also riddled with wounds. Cracks covered his bone staff, looking like it would break at any moment.
This was an earth-shattering battle. Dozens of asteroids had already been reduced to ashes by them.
"Roar …"
At this point, the Asura Clan's half-step Martial Ancestor's eyes were already bloodshot. After suffering a great loss today, his Qi and blood surged wildly. He roared, and a huge palm covered the sky. Then, he grabbed ten-odd asteroids in the distance and refined them to the size of pearls before smashing them at Xiao Chen.
Although they had shrunk, the horrifying energy contained within them was completely stimulated. At the same time, he infused close to half of the Asura Clan's half-step Martial Ancestor's strength into them. He wanted to use this to break the Ancestor God Battle Robes. Otherwise, they would not be able to injure Xiao Chen at all.
Xiao Chen moved the twenty-odd swords to his side, forming a sword formation for defense. The sword in his hand was dyed with a drop of the Ancestor God's blood, making it incredibly sharp.
"Chi …"
Xiao Chen held the sword with both hands and hacked forward. A resplendent sword light traveled for dozens of kilometers, illuminating the dark Starry Heavens.
"Pu …"
The unparalleled battle sword hacked apart the first asteroid. Vast energy immediately spread out in outer space, covering the sky. The dazzling light made the quiet sky flare up.
Following that, the second, third, fourth … ten-odd asteroids crashed into Xiao Chen at the same time.
Xiao Chen continuously hacked with the sword in his hand. Piercing light burst forth continuously, dazzling and resplendent in outer space. That terrifying energy fluctuation was sufficient to destroy a vast number of cultivators.
Even if an Absolute Being were here, he would probably turn to ashes.
Xiao Chen's Ancestor God Battle Robes flickered with a dark light, looking crystalline and translucent. A seven-colored holy tree hovered above his head. Its seven leaves were resplendent and transparent, sending down seven silk-like beams of divine light that firmly protected his head.
The Skeleton Sovereign King was even more ruthless. It directly refined twenty-odd asteroids and sent them smashing at Xiao Chen.
The sky shattered. The energy containing the aura of destruction shook the starry heavens.
Xiao Chen's body erupted with light, and the twenty-seven swords danced wildly. He shouted and shattered many asteroids as he charged towards this half-step Martial Ancestor.
At this moment, Magic Skills and Combat Techniques appeared everywhere. The entire sky seemed to be in a frenzy.
On the surface, Xiao Chen looked fine. The Ancestor God Battle Robes blocked most of the attacks. However, his physical body suffered some injuries. That was the strong and horrifying half-step Martial Ancestor God Energy that shook through the battle robes.
The three started fighting again. At this moment, their eyes turned bloodshot.
"The boundless sea of bones shall turn you into a demon."
The Skeleton Sovereign King waved his hands, and thousands of skeletons appeared in the starry heavens, charging towards Xiao Chen. Then, a huge ancient city appeared before him.
Although it did not have the majestic might of the ghost city, it could still be called majestic and imposing.
The entire ancient city pressed down on Xiao Chen from high up in the sky.
At the same time, the Asura half-step Martial Ancestor split into thousands of clones, appearing in the sea of bones and working with the Skeleton Sovereign King to surround Xiao Chen.
"Rumble …!" The huge ancient city descended, shattering countless white bones and pressing Xiao Chen inside.
"World of Death, boundless might, heed my call! Destroy!"
Terrifying energy fluctuations surged violently. The Skeleton Race had escaped from the World of Death in the past. Although the Skeleton King's generation didn't know where the World of Death was, they still mastered some secret techniques that were related to the World of Death.
However, he wanted to borrow the might of the world to suppress Xiao Chen temporarily.
"I'll borrow the power of your world of death to refine my divine body!"
Although Xiao Chen was pressed inside the ancient city, it did not pose much of a problem. He continuously guided the might of the world of death into his body.
He had been reborn in that world in the first place. How could he fear such an attack?
"Explode!"
"Rumble …!" That huge ghost city immediately shattered in the starry heavens.
This was definitely a shocking battle, even more intense than the battle at the forbidden sea back then.
After fighting for a long time, Xiao Chen vomited ten-odd mouthfuls of blood, getting knocked back by the two half-step Martial Ancestors.
"The Ancestor God Battle Robes are not omnipotent!"
Even though the Asura half-step Martial Ancestor and the Skeleton Sovereign King's combat prowess plummeted, their eyes still blazed with a ferocious fighting spirit as they charged at Xiao Chen.
Suddenly, sword light soared into the sky!
The dazzling light illuminated this starry heavens. The twenty-six swords ignored the Skeleton Sovereign King and surrounded the Asura half-step Martial Ancestor. Divine lights glowed as they charged at the old Asura.
At the same time, Xiao Chen raised the sword in his hand above his head and hacked down. A fifty-kilometer-long sword light shot out.
"Pu …"
A scarlet light soared into the sky. The Asura half-step Martial Ancestor was hacked in half!
Although he managed to dodge the twenty-six swords, Xiao Chen's sword struck him.
"Ah …"
The Asura half-step Martial Ancestor screamed. He felt intense pain from his soul. That sword was stained with the Ancestor God's blood. It seeped into his flesh, causing his soul to tremble continuously.
"Bang …"
The two halves of the Asura half-step Martial Ancestor recombined with much difficulty. A glaring drop of blood was squeezed out and flew back to the sword in Xiao Chen's hand.
The Asura half-step Martial Ancestor was significantly injured. Once again, he felt the terror of the Ancestor God.
On the other side, for the sake of dealing with the Asura half-step Martial Ancestor, Xiao Chen suffered three strikes from the Skeleton Sovereign King and vomited blood repeatedly. Finally, he turned around and used the twenty-seven swords to hack at the old skeleton.
"Keng qiang" sounds rang out incessantly. The white bone staff in the Skeleton Sovereign's hand finally broke, and his arm bones, leg bones, and other bones were also cut off by the battle sword.
"Roar …"
The Skeleton Sovereign King was anxious and furious. He felt the danger.
Not far away, the Asura half-step Martial Ancestor recovered his physical body temporarily. He had no choice but to rush over to rescue him again.
This was a great battle that no one in the starry field could see. It was incomparably intense. The killing intent made the starry river pale in comparison.
And in the vicinity of Miticas Peak, many loose cultivators had yet to disperse.
They were waiting for Lan Nuo's return. They were also waiting for the result of the battle between Xiao Chen and the two half-step Martial Ancestors.
Everyone was looking forward to it with excitement.
At this moment, it was already noon. The winter sun was not dazzling. It gently illuminated the earth.
Just at this moment, a spatial door appeared in the sun. The exceptionally beautiful Lan Nuo appeared and descended to the ground.
Thousands of rays of multicolored light and tens of thousands of auspicious lights. Her entire body was enveloped in divine splendor. In her hand, she held a holy sword that could make the sun, moon, and stars lose their splendor.
Forged by the Heavenly Fire of the Sun, refined by the half-step Martial Ancestor's mind, and watered by the divine power of billions of stars, she finally created this Intellectual Sword.
"Clang …"
Lan Nuo descended to the summit of Miticas Peak and sheathed the Intellectual Sword. All the light vanished. Then, she used her powerful spiritual sense to scan the surroundings. Finally, she asked Beyond the Mountain.
Beyond the Mountain was very gratified. He pointed to the sky and told her where the battlefield was.
Lan Nuo soared into the sky and was about to fly away.
However, just at this moment, a figure descended from the sky. Xiao Chen's iron clothes were stained with blood. Even his fluttering black hair was somewhat wet. Blood was dripping from his sword unceasingly.
Everyone was horrified. One had to know that he fought with the two half-step Martial Ancestors just now. It went without saying whose blood it was. This was simply too horrifying.
His black hair fluttered, his battle clothes flickered, and his sword was stained with blood. Xiao Chen landed on the ground and sent a voice transmission to Chrysus and the others. After that, he nodded at Lan Nuo. With a flash of light, he disappeared into thin air.
Originally, he came to see Lan Nuo. In the end, he only nodded his head. It was as if he had just turned over a page in history. Then, Xiao Chen went far away.
Back then in the Lifelong Realm, Lan Nuo once sent someone to pass a message to him. If he was in trouble and was not in closed-door cultivation, she would definitely go and help him.
Even though he did not receive her help, Xiao Chen could be considered to have completely repaid this favor.
Seeing Xiao Chen disappear into thin air, Lan Nuo was slightly stunned. After that, she nodded her head gently.
All the practitioners were in an uproar. They felt that Xiao Chen's cultivation was too terrifying. After disappearing for more than a hundred and fifty years, he actually killed two deities comparable to half-step Martial Ancestors after he returned. Then, his sword was stained with the divine blood of two half-step Martial Ancestors …
In the Nine Provinces and the Four Realms, he was the only one who was not a half-step Martial Ancestor, yet he could contend with a half-step Martial Ancestor.
He returned from the battle in the sky and left just like that. He did not say anything, as if he had never appeared.
