Chapter 816: Chapter 816: Ultimate Move Versus Ultimate Move!
Caught in the formidable “Kunlun Great Chaotic Sword Array”, Huang Xiaolong remained unnervingly calm.
In a flash, five shadows sped towards Huang Xiaolong, intent on seizing control of his body and devouring his soul.
Just then, Huang Xiaolong swiftly pulled out a handful of talismans from his canvas bag and tossed them out with a dizzying speed!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The talismans disappeared into the ancient chaos energy on the platform.
Huang Xiaolong gave a slight smile and took a step forward!
Boom!!!!
The ancient chaos energy on the entire platform suddenly collapsed as if it had imploded!
The five shadows hurtling toward Huang Xiaolong suddenly lost balance, pulled by a force field, as if they were going to plunge into an endless abyss.
“Not good!”
Shrill cries rang out as the five shadows twisted back in a ghostly manner, merging back into the five Kunlun descendants.
Against Huang Xiaolong’s assault, they returned without achieving anything.
At this time, the ancient chaos energy on the platform boiled and surged more fiercely, circling around Huang Xiaolong as if under his control.
Talismans flickered incessantly.
“What’s happening? We’ve lost control of our ‘Kunlun Great Chaotic Sword Array’!” one of the Kunlun descendants yelled in a high-pitched voice.
“Heh, not only you can set up arrays, I can too.” The entire array, centered around Huang Xiaolong’s body and will, began to rotate. Huang Xiaolong casually reached out and grabbed a thick strand of ancient chaos energy in his hand. “The Chaos Immortal Array, burying demons and gods, supreme across all worlds. This array of mine is known as the ‘Chaos Immortal Array’, which, compared to your ‘Kunlun Great Chaotic Sword Array’, is countless times more powerful. To set up the ‘Chaos Immortal Array’ requires some ancient chaos energy, and your sword array happens to create it, which I can use to my advantage—”
“You used our sword array to set up your own array!” Several Kunlun descendants burst out with enraged and maniacal voices, mixed with shame, shock, and unwillingness…
It turned out that Huang Xiaolong had used the sword array set up by these Kunlun descendants to hijack the ancient chaos energy within it, not only breaking the sword array but also setting up a new one, trapping these Kunlun descendants inside!
These Kunlun descendants had put great effort into setting the array, only to have Huang Xiaolong benefit from their hard work.
The ancient chaos energy on the platform grew more abundant and intense, with every strand as heavy as mountains, making it extremely difficult for the five Kunlun descendants to even move!
“What is this situation? Why is there so much ancient chaos energy surging out? I…I can’t make out the directions anymore! Damn it! It’s so heavy, the air feels like it has turned into solid iron slabs—”
The Kunlun descendants cried out in terror and shock.
They had lost their sense of direction, unable to escape.
The observatory platform fell silent.
This turnaround was unexpected.
Initially, Huang Xiaolong was trapped in the sword array, seemingly doomed, but in the blink of an eye, it turned into Huang Xiaolong counterattacking the Kunlun descendants, trapping them to death.
“I never expected… Young Master Huang to be capable of setting up arrays… Too strong! He has too many trump cards!” Feng Hanyan was dumbstruck.
“A single person setting up a grand array and trapping five experts… He’s unimaginably powerful…” Aside from admiration, Yan Pianpian’s eyes also shone with infatuation.
Huang Xiaolong’s wives, of course, felt extremely proud and elated.
The Ying Family camp finally breathed a sigh of relief.
And Xuanyuan Zhou and the others, their faces turned green.
Xuanyuan Ba’s eye muscles twitched incessantly, and for the first time, a look of fear appeared on his face. “He… he can perform Taoist techniques… who… who exactly is he… But, the Taoist magic of this world, our Yin Tribe is immune to it… he… he…”
Xuanyuan Ba’s mind was a complete muddle.
Obviously, the formation that Huang Xiaolong laid out with his talismans was a Taoist Formation, but the Yin Tribe was supposed to be immune to all Taoist magic in the human realm, so why were they affected?
Above the battlefield, divine light shone in Huang Xiaolong’s eyes as he waved his hand, and the ancient chaos energy suddenly compressed!
“Ah~~~ No!” The five Kunlun disciples were instantly crushed into a ball by the overwhelming force from all directions, like massive mountains bearing down!
Crack~~ Crack~ Crack~~~
The sound of bones being crushed resounded like the popping of beans.
Finally!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The bodies of the five Kunlun disciples were ground into a paste and exploded into pieces.
Their shadows, too, were torn apart, splashing out pieces of disgusting, stinky pus.
Dead!
The five Kunlun disciples, also five members of the Yin Tribe, were annihilated.
The talismans Huang Xiaolong had thrown burned quickly into ash.
The ancient chaos energy on the battlefield dispersed like wind, the Formation destroyed.
Huang Xiaolong stood atop the battlefield, like an ancient deity, with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, looking at Xuanyuan Ba.
“You!” Xuanyuan Ba stood up directly, his fierce face uncertain.
“What now, is it your turn to come out and die?” Huang Xiaolong asked gleefully. “All your minions, all your companions, have died with no burial ground… The last one, is you…” 𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙥𝒖𝒃.𝙘𝙤𝒎
Although he said this, Huang Xiaolong also knew that he couldn’t kill anymore, he had to leave a survivor.
He still needed to extract some intelligence about the Yin Tribe.
From Xuanyuan Ba’s conspiracy this time, it was clear that the ambition of the Yin Tribe was vast and obvious, and moreover, many from the Yin Tribe had already climbed from their realm into the human world.
If Huang Xiaolong wanted to eliminate these members of the Yin Tribe, he needed to obtain enough intelligence; or else it would remain a troubling issue.
“How preposterous!” Xuanyuan Ba roared with rage. “Do you really think you can defeat me? You lowly ant! I am a noble existence! Not something you can defile!”
“Pfft~~ What noble existence?” Huang Xiaolong mocked with a laugh. “Actually, from the very start, you lost to me.”
After a pause, Huang Xiaolong, from afar, turned to look at Yan Pianpian. “Your fiancée has already become my close maid. You didn’t know that, did you?”
“What?” Xuanyuan Ba’s expression stalled as he also looked toward Yan Pianpian.
On the spectator stands, countless pairs of eyes suddenly turned towards Yan Pianpian.
At this moment, Yan Pianpian, without any hint of hesitation, stood up, her face flushed with shyness but her eyes unwaveringly firm, she faced Huang Xiaolong and bowed slightly. “Pianpian… Pianpian is indeed… is… is the servant of this Young Master Huang…”
Upon these words, everyone was horrified!
“At… at Binhai… Pianpian was already… already become Young Master Huang’s servant…” Yan Pianpian bowed her head.
Today, Huang Xiaolong descended like a deity, disdainful and unbeatable, admitting she was his maidservant did not bring shame, but instead, it was the utmost honor.
“Roar~~~!!!!”
Xuanyuan Ao’s hoarse roar rose to the skies as he was consumed by shameful rage, leaving him utterly faceless. In the mortal realm, his status was that of an esteemed Ancient Martial Crown Prince, and everyone in the Huaxia ancient martial arts circle knew he had chosen Yan Pianpian as his fiancée. Yet today, under the watchful eyes of the public, his betrothed acknowledged herself as Huang Xiaolong’s maidservant right in front of him!
This was the epitome of extreme humiliation!
“Good! Very good! You and I will fight to the death! I shall personally ruin you!” Xuanyuan Ba’s eyes were bloodshot, his body suddenly moved, and with that movement, the wind surged and clouds gathered as waves of True Qi exploded from within his body. Surrounding him were thousands of thick Sword Qi that suddenly bloomed, each beam shining with the light of the blazing sun, soaring and illuminating eternity!
“I want you dead!” Xuanyuan Ba’s voice boomed with imperial authority, as if an emperor were proclaiming his might, making one shiver with fear!
Inside Xuanyuan Ba’s body, a total of 656 streams of True Qi exploded forth!
This level of power was simply despairing!
Many people present were almost suppressed to the point of coughing up blood and collapsing on the spot.
“The Crown Prince of Ancient Martial Arts must win! The Crown Prince of Ancient Martial Arts must win!”
The members of the Xuanyuan Family, as well as those surrendered ancient martial arts clans, roared one after another.
“Please, Crown Prince of Ancient Martial Arts, kill this abomination immediately and avenge those who died at his hands!”
“This brat has offended your majesty, Crown Prince, he must die, and all members of the Ying Family must be utterly annihilated!”
“Crown Prince, your cultivation has reached such heights, truly invincible in the world. Slaying this monster will be effortless for you! Please take action!”
…
Xuanyuan Ba’s body, supported by True Qi, actually rose into the air. Stepping through the void, he walked step by step toward Huang Xiaolong, an embodiment of supreme domination.
It turned out, reaching such a realm in ancient martial arts cultivation could grant one the ability to walk through the air, akin to a deity!
“Who gave you the courage to disrupt our plans?” Xuanyuan Ba looked down at Huang Xiaolong from his elevated position. “No matter, I will personally slaughter you so that you understand what it means to respect the strong!”
Boom~~~!
Xuanyuan Ba finally descended, standing on the battle platform opposite Huang Xiaolong!
One was the Crown Prince of Huaxia’s ancient martial arts, heir to the Kunlun sect’s legacy, with abnormally high cultivation, each gesture imbued with imperial grandeur, his martial genius comparable to that of the ancients!
The other was a dramatically rising figure, turning the tide against the flow, relentlessly executing one enemy after another, with aces up his sleeve that were unfathomable.
Now, these two peerless beings were about to clash head-on!
This battle would directly determine the future direction of the Huaxia ancient martial arts world!
All present dared not speak, they even refrained from breathing heavily, eyes glued to the battle platform, afraid of missing any detail of the battle.
“Our plan will continue to unfold step by step… the mortal world will eventually become the paradise of the Yin Tribe… we are the most noble race…” Xuanyuan Ba whispered to Huang Xiaolong.
“I will exterminate all of you unnatural monsters,” Huang Xiaolong said seriously. “To me, this will be a very interesting thing… perhaps even more fun than catching ghosts…”
“You are but like a mantis trying to stop a chariot! Die!” Xuanyuan Ba roared fiercely, his right hand reached out, and a huge swath of air solidified into a Longsword, its edge as bright as a sunny sky.
In a split second, Xuanyuan Ba’s eyes became fierce like swords as he cleaved through the sky. With a flick of the Longsword made of air in his hand, he aimed a thrust straight at Huang Xiaolong’s heart.
“`
The trajectory of this sword constantly leapt, piercing out a stroke of awe-inspiring beauty, intangible and utterly impossible to capture its angle!
Indeed, Xuanyuan Ba had reached an inconceivable level in various fields such as swordsmanship, martial arts, and the manipulation of True Qi, far surpassing those Kunlun successors who were killed by Huang Xiaolong just before. He was the true powerhouse!
Huang Xiaolong was also spirited, laughing out loud, taking a step that merely served as a build-up. With that step, the Sword Intent bursting from Huang Xiaolong reached a terrifying degree; since Xuanyuan Ba used a sword, then Huang Xiaolong would also use a sword. Sword Qi surged to the heavens, completely shattering the surrounding air into chaos, breaking apart.
Dead silence surrounded Huang Xiaolong as he reached out with his right hand, clasping a longsword made of air.
Although Xuanyuan Ba had inherited the ancient Kunlun sect’s teachings and was formidable, Huang Xiaolong controlled the underworld. Within its bounds were countless spirits of ancient martial artists, each once unparalleled, their lifelong secret techniques not buried with them—they had all been passed on to Huang Xiaolong!
Huang Xiaolong unleashed a slash!
Sword Qi, Sword Force, and Sword Intent, all merged into an unparalleled monster dragon, roaring towards Xuanyuan Ba’s sword light!
The two peerless sword lights clashed in the void!
Boom~~~!!!!
The entire battle stage’s ground suddenly sunk in!
Both Huang Xiaolong and Xuanyuan Ba were suspended in the air!
“Good lad!” Xuanyuan Ba’s mouth twitched into a hysterical laugh. From their head-on clash just now, his sword force was actually unable to suppress Huang Xiaolong; there was even a faint sense of being restrained by Huang Xiaolong.
Xuanyuan Ba knew this was the most brutal battle of his life. He concentrated all his power once again, preparing for a desperate strike, while his shadow twitched, ready to abandon Xuanyuan Ba’s body at the critical moment and take over Huang Xiaolong directly!
Xuanyuan Ba had a faint suspicion that Huang Xiaolong must possess a secret not inferior to that of the Yin Tribe!
In a flash, Xuanyuan Ba’s True Qi burst forth and began to integrate!
Over 600 streams of True Qi fused together, forming a blazing sun which cast the entire Ancient City into a sea of red!
On the spectator’s platform, Xuanyuan Zhou suddenly roared, “My son, Xuanyuan Ba, is about to deliver the final blow! This is the strike that concentrates all his strength!”
In the blink of an eye, Xuanyuan Ba let out a furious bellow that seemed to devour mountains and rivers. With a wave of his hand, thousands of brilliant sword Qi, dense and incredibly fierce, surged mightily towards Huang Xiaolong!
“Kunlun Ancient Sword Technique—Sword! Sweep! The! World!”
Xuanyuan Ba, unleashed his strongest strike!
“Forget it, I’m too lazy to drag this out with you.” In a split-second decision, Huang Xiaolong responded.
Suddenly, Huang Xiaolong tossed the longsword of air and, with the speed of magic, began inscribing symbols in the void. In the time it takes to breathe, he had inscribed dozens, even hundreds of runes.
Huang Xiaolong infused all these rune-scripts into the longsword of air!
In an instant, the longsword seemed to spring to life. Its blade shone with golden light, the runes flickered on and off, and with a whoosh, it tore through the air—like thunder, like lightning, like a thundering army, like blazing flames in the sky, like chasing the moon, like a meteorite crashing down—directly slashing at Xuanyuan Ba.
Since Xuanyuan Ba had used his ultimate move, Huang Xiaolong also delivered his own.
Using the Taoist technique of controlling flying swords, Huang Xiaolong turned the longsword of air into a relatively simple flying sword to directly slay Xuanyuan Ba!
This was a clash of ultimate moves!
Boom~~~~~~~!!!!
