Huo Wei's body instantly exploded!
Only a bloody mist remained in the air. A dignified Divine Power Realm expert from the Huo Family of the Ancient Race Continent had been powerless to resist an opponent of the sa realm. Not even a shred of his body was left!
"The Beidou Sword!"
"Star Power!"
Over there, Huo Jinwen and Huo Jinwu cried out almost simultaneously, their voices trembling.
'The Beidou Sword? Are they talking about my Seven Star Sword?' Xu Luo didn't dwell on it. He activated his Shaking Light Step, transforming into a streak of light as he slashed his sword toward the fat old man, Huo Jinwen.
RUMBLE!
The blood-colored greatsword in the hands of the Ancient Deity behind Huo Wanzhang slashed down, landing in front of Huo Jinwen to form a bloody wall that radiated boundless killing intent!
Xu Luo's Seven Star Sword struck it fiercely, creating a deafening crash. His body was thrown back by the impact.
Huo Jinwu roared, and his giant green palm, reeking of a foul stench, slapped toward Xu Luo once more.
"Get your claws off !" The light of Xu Luo's sword flashed as he slashed at the giant green palm.
Although Huo Jinwu was a powerhouse at the Second Layer of the Sword Saint Realm, he didn't dare to clash head-on with Xu Luo.
The fa of the Beidou Sword... In ancient legends, it was no less renowned than Beidou's Eighth Star!
Legend said this sword ca from the heavens, that it did not belong to the Mortal World and possessed the power to destroy heaven and earth. The last ti it appeared before mortals was in the distant Ancient Era. No one expected it to reappear in the world today.
"It has to be him! No one else... could wield the Beidou Sword!" Huo Wanzhang roared, his aura instantly surging to its absolute peak!
The Third-Layer Divine Power Realm expert was about to fight for his life.
"Get lost!" Xu Luo barked. He clenched his left hand into a fist, channeled his Tyrant Technique, and smashed it viciously toward Huo Jinwu!
Huo Jinwu let out a sharp cry as his entire body turned a sickly green. It was a terrifying sight, and the putrid stench he emitted was nauseating!
"You little bastard! I'm not finished with you for killing my companion!" Huo Jinwu's Poison Skill was famous throughout the Ancient Race Continent. The strange poison contained within the God-Trapping Array was his creation.
Even Xu Luo was wary of the deadly poison on Huo Jinwu's body. Killing him might not be difficult, but killing him without getting poisoned himself... that would be very hard!
At the sa ti, Huo Wanzhang launched a killing blow, determined to suppress Xu Luo!
Xu Luo battled the two n. The fat old man, Huo Jinwen, who had just narrowly escaped death, was almost completely unable to join the fight and could only watch from the sidelines.
'This gap in our realms... is really infuriating!' Xu Luo thought to himself. If Huo Wanzhang and Huo Jinwu were only at the First Layer of the Divine Power Realm like Huo Danqiong and the others, Xu Luo was confident he could take on all five of them. Even if he couldn't kill them all, at the very least, no one would be able to stop him if he wanted to escape.
But now, fighting against two of them, although his combat prowess was unparalleled and he was practically invincible among his peers, he was still sowhat outmatched when facing two Divine Power Realm experts whose realms were higher than his own.
The three of them fought in this silent, desolate stretch of hills, their battle so intense it blotted out the sun and moon. They held nothing back, making no effort to control the powerful shockwaves from their fight, which completely obliterated the surrounding area for hundreds of miles!
The energy released when Divine Power Realm experts fought without restraint was terrifyingly imnse.
The fat old man, Huo Jinwen, had already retreated hundreds of miles away!
He was seething with frustration. The boy had clearly been just a snot-nosed kid in the Transformation Realm before, soone he hadn't even deigned to look at.
But who would have thought that in less than half a month, Xu Luo, who could do nothing but run from him before, had actually grown into a Divine Power Realm expert? What was even harder for him to accept was that Xu Luo's combat prowess was so terrifying!
Slaying Huo Danqiong, who was of the sa realm, with a single strike and blasting Huo Wei to pieces—this terrifying power made Huo Jinwen's very soul tremble. He was scared... truly scared!
If Xu Luo weren't currently being suppressed by the combined efforts of Huo Wanzhang and Huo Jinwu, Huo Jinwen would have had the urge to turn and flee.
He muttered to himself, 'They have to suppress him... They absolutely have to suppress him!'
"Boy, surrender now!" Huo Wanzhang bellowed. Behind him, the blood-colored greatsword in the hands of the Ancient Deity Dharma Aspect suddenly transford!
It turned into a great, blood-colored net that descended upon Xu Luo!
Huo Jinwu waved his hands continuously, flinging out large quantities of poison. The air filled with an acrid sll.
In that sa instant, the white ape Dharma Aspect behind Huo Jinwu turned a shimring green. It looked incredibly demonic, its eyes blood-red and glowing with a bloodthirsty light.
It sealed off all of Xu Luo's escape routes!
"You little brat... Enjoy the grand feast of poison from your Grandpa Jin Wu! I guarantee it'll be an unforgettable experience!" Huo Jinwu's face was contorted in a savage grin. His skinny body seed to contain boundless power as he cackled madly in mid-air.
BUZZ!
Behind Xu Luo, a Dharma Heaven and Earth finally rose. Five great stars ascended into the sky!
RUMBLE!
The five great stars erupted with incomparably intense starlight!
The starlight was blindingly brilliant!
The very world seed to grow restless at the appearance of the Five-Star Dharma Aspect. As if it could not bear the weight of these five stars, the void itself began to twist and distort.
The blood-colored net descended upon the Five-Star Dharma Aspect, setting off a series of thunderous explosions.
The blood-colored net shattered!
Huo Wanzhang coughed, spitting out a mouthful of blood. A look of disbelief filled his eyes.
Staring at the five ascending stars, Huo Wanzhang roared, "This is impossible!"
BUZZ!
Among the five great stars, the central Jade Balance Star emitted a sound like celestial music. In that instant, the world fell silent, leaving only this single tone!
BANG!
The shimring green giant ape Dharma Aspect behind Huo Jinwu imdiately exploded!
Blood stread from Huo Jinwu's mouth as he plumted from mid-air, crashing violently into the dust... Nearly every bone in his body shattered from the fall!
"Jin Wu!" Ignoring his own injuries, Huo Wanzhang let out a furious roar. "I'm going to kill you!"
"You think you can kill ?" A look of grim determination flashed in Xu Luo's eyes. Although he had heavily wounded his opponents, he himself was not lightly injured.
In the recent exchange, multiple wounds had been left on Xu Luo's body. Several were bleeding so profusely that bone was nearly visible.
At the sa ti, Huo Jinwu's poison was indeed potent. Even though the Jade Balance Star Soul had absorbed most of it, Xu Luo had still been unavoidably poisoned.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Xu Luo and Huo Wanzhang clashed once again.
"Brother!" Over there, the fat old man Huo Jinwen watched his own brother, Huo Jinwu, fall to the dust. He let out a piercing shriek and rushed over.
Xu Luo was continuously coughing up blood, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw Huo Jinwen rushing over. He laughed, and his figure suddenly dropped downward.
"Jin Wen... get back!" Huo Wanzhang's eyes nearly split from rage. 'This little bastard is cunning to the bone! He knows he's no match for , so he's picking off everyone around one by one.'
'If he kills Huo Jinwen too, then even if I manage to capture him... it will be difficult to explain this to the Elder Council when I return to the Ancient Race!'
The fat old man, Huo Jinwen, suddenly felt a chilling killing intent lock onto him and imdiately assud a defensive stance.
After a long mont... he felt no movent. He seed to hear Uncle Wanzhang's irrepressible roar from the sky, but the sound... why was it getting farther and farther away?
Huo Jinwen subconsciously raised a hand to his throat. To his horror, he found it covered in blood!
PSHH!
A spurt of hot blood shot out from a thin line on his neck, almost invisible to the naked eye!
Huo Jinwen's head rolled off his neck. His eyes were still wide open, filled with a blank confusion. Even in death, he never understood what had happened.
"AAAAARGH! DAMN IT ALL!" Huo Wanzhang let out a crazed roar, finally and utterly enraged. He hadn't used killing blows before because he wanted to capture Xu Luo alive.
A living Beidou's Eighth Star was of imasurable value—it could even allow a Saint to ascend to godhood!
Whether a dead Beidou's Eighth Star held the sa value, no one could say. At the very least, when he left the Ancient Race Continent, the Elder Council had ordered him to find the living Beidou's Eighth Star and bring him back.
"If I wasn't trying to take you alive, how could they have died? How could they possibly have died? You little bastard... I'll throw it all away! I will kill you today!" Huo Wanzhang, goaded beyond reason, had completely lost his sanity.
The giant Ancient Deity behind him also erupted with intense killing intent!
"Die!"
The giant Ancient Deity instantly transford into a streak of white light and shot toward Xu Luo!
After severing Huo Jinwen's head with a single slash at an unbelievable speed, Xu Luo shot into the distance.
Suddenly feeling the killing intent contained within that white light, Xu Luo imdiately halted and sent the five great stars from his back to block it directly.
BOOM!
An explosion of light erupted. The world... beca a vast, empty expanse, filled with nothing but blinding light, as if nothing else existed.
Huo Wanzhang felt all the power in his body drain away in that instant!
He coughed up several mouthfuls of blood, yet he was still cackling madly. "Hahaha, trying to escape from ? No matter how strong you are... you're just soone who recently entered the Divine Power Realm... while I... am at the... Divine Power Realm's... Third Layer... GAH!"
He spat out another mouthful of blood, then took out a large handful of Elixirs and stuffed them into his mouth without looking.
When the light faded, Huo Wanzhang looked toward where Xu Luo had been standing. It was now a patch of scorched earth, with a giant crater over a hundred ters deep gouged into the ground!
Groundwater was already seeping into the crater, but Xu Luo was nowhere to be seen.
"What a pity..." Huo Wanzhang sighed and muttered, "I hope the Elder Council... won't bla . I was forced into this. He had already grown to a terrifying level. There was no way I could capture him; I could only kill him... At least, that's better than him growing into a peerless powerhouse one day... and coming back to kill us... right?"
Muttering to himself, Huo Wanzhang staggered unsteadily toward Huo Jinwu, who was lying there with all his bones broken, having long since fallen unconscious.
'He can't die... If he dies too, no one will be able to prove how terrifying Xu Luo was. If he lives... my chances of avoiding the Elder Council's punishnt... will be that much greater.'
"Such a pity... such a pity!" Huo Wanzhang was still sighing.
