Chapter 255: Just Stand Aside
"Kill!"
Wu Feihua bellowed. The edge of the great saber in his hand glinted with a chilling light as he brought it crashing down toward Shen Daoxing, whistling through the air.
But suddenly, a small, exquisite, and translucent jade seal appeared before Wu Feihua’s saber.
"CLANG!"
The sound of metal striking metal rang out.
The seemingly fragile jade seal flashed with light under the great saber’s blow.
Suddenly, the great saber in Wu Feihua’s hand shuddered and let out a mournful cry. He felt the force of his own swing surge back up the blade and slam into his body.
"PFFT!"
The blood and qi in Wu Feihua’s body roiled. He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood as he was sent flying backward, tracing a long, bloody arc through the sky.
"Feihe!"
Wang Mingxuan cried out in alarm. He brought two fingers together and muttered, "Go!"
WHOOSH! The Money Sword in his hand shot out like an arrow loosed from a bow, streaking across the sky in a dazzling arc of light.
Shen Daoxing tapped his toes lightly and leaped into the air, dodging it with ease.
The next moment, the Great Ming Demon Sparrow flew out on its own, transforming into a black arc of light.
"CLANG!"
The sound of metal striking metal rang out again.
Wang Mingxuan hastily recalled his Money Sword to strike the Great Ming Demon Sparrow.
"Wuji! Don’t hold back! Use your full power and crush him with absolute strength! Don’t give him any chance to resist!"
Wang Mingxuan suddenly yelled.
"Kill!"
A cold, furious voice erupted.
Yuwen Wuji roared. His hands, held high, suddenly shone with brilliant light. They seemed to make the air itself crackle as he squeezed, then he slammed his palms together.
In that instant, two enormous golden hands appeared on either side of Shen Daoxing. They mirrored Yuwen Wuji’s posture, their five fingers spread wide as they closed in to crush him.
And Shen Daoxing was still airborne, with no way to push off.
"WHOOSH!"
A black light flashed past.
At the critical moment, the Great Ming Demon Sparrow changed direction and flew over, transforming into a spiritual light.
Shen Daoxing reached out, grasped the hilt of the Great Ming Demon Sparrow, and transformed into a streak of light, shooting away with a WHOOSH.
"BOOM!"
The two giant golden palms slammed into each other, exploding in a dazzling radiance that dyed the entire sky gold. Even though Shen Daoxing had already dodged, the massive shockwave still blasted him far into the distance.
’Is this the power of the Earth Profound Realm?’
’It seems Yuwen Wuji really isn’t holding back.’
Shen Daoxing turned his head to look and his heart suddenly jolted. A pair of enormous eyes had appeared before him without any warning, radiating a sharp light that seemed to pierce through everything.
They were truly a pair of colossal eyes, completely filling Shen Daoxing’s entire field of vision.
He hastily used Sword Control to pull away.
Only then did Shen Daoxing see the full picture. It was a behemoth-like Yuwen Wuji, as immense as a great mountain. A single light step from him could demolish the walls of Ancient Moon City.
His entire body was golden and incomparably majestic. Every move he made exuded a tyrannical aura, like a Golden Armor War God.
Heaven and Earth!
This was a supreme technique that only Earth Profound Realm cultivators could comprehend after communicating with heaven and earth—a Heaven-Reaching Technique that channeled the might of the earth.
An Earth Profound Realm cultivator could crush a Spirit Transformation cultivator as easily as squashing a mosquito.
For Yuwen Wuji to use Heaven and Earth right from the start showed he truly had no intention of leaving Shen Daoxing any way out alive.
In an instant, the common people on the streets below fled in terror, gazing up at the sky as if they were witnessing Immortals and Buddhas.
"Formless Heaven and Earth, Shadowless Daoist Skill, trap!"
Wang Mingxuan suddenly muttered a series of Mantras. The Money Sword before him flared with light, and then, one by one, the coins detached themselves. They split from one into two, two into four, four into eight, until over a hundred copper coins appeared in an instant.
"Go!"
The copper coins began to spin, creating a tornado of money that suddenly enveloped Shen Daoxing. A brilliant golden light flared, forming a sturdy cage.
"Wuji, do it! Don’t let him escape again!"
Wang Mingxuan shouted, extending a finger to perform a Guiding Technique, controlling the coins to bind Shen Daoxing.
Suddenly, Yuwen Wuji moved. He reached out with his giant hand, a hand that could easily crush a pavilion, and darkness instantly fell over Shen Daoxing.
Shen Daoxing merely glanced at Yuwen Wuji, shook his head, and said nonchalantly, "You should just stay on the sidelines for now."
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a small, exquisite, translucent jade seal flew out. The jade seal transformed into a streak of light, arriving above Yuwen Wuji’s head in a flash as a dazzling white light erupted from it.
The Venerable Dharma Seal grew larger and larger, and in a moment, it overshadowed the entirety of Yuwen Wuji.
"BANG!"
A massive crash resounded.
The Venerable Dharma Seal came crashing down.
Yuwen Wuji subconsciously raised both hands to brace himself against the Venerable Dharma Seal.
"BOOM!"
His body came to an abrupt halt and his legs bent. Dust flew everywhere as the ground cracked and splintered with a K-K-KRAK.
The surrounding houses collapsed with a roar under the immense shockwave.
"Rise!"
Yuwen Wuji roared in fury. The golden light around his body intensified, and a surging power rose up. Then, inch by inch, he actually began to lift the Venerable Dharma Seal.
"Oh? You can still lift it?"
Shen Daoxing smiled faintly, then tapped a finger lightly toward the Venerable Dharma Seal. "How about this, then?"
Suddenly, the Venerable Dharma Seal’s white light flared, illuminating the entire sky. In a blur, the Venerable Dharma Seal expanded in all directions. In just a moment, it had doubled in size.
"BOOM!"
The pressure on him increased dramatically. Yuwen Wuji, who had just straightened up, was instantly bent over again. K-K-KRAK! The ground around him fractured once more.
Seeing that Yuwen Wuji still seemed to have some strength left, Shen Daoxing smiled faintly and tapped toward the Venerable Dharma Seal again.
The Venerable Dharma Seal’s white light flared brightly once more, continuously expanding outward.
The people of Ancient Moon City felt the entire sky darken. The Venerable Dharma Seal had already grown to the size of a city, pressing down from above.
"RUMBLE!"
Yuwen Wuji could no longer hold on. He bent at the waist, shouldering the Venerable Dharma Seal on his back. His feet sank an inch into the ground before he could barely stabilize himself. The golden light around his body vanished completely.
"!!!"
Wang Mingxuan looked up at the completely obscured sky, his face a mask of horror.
Inside Shen Daoxing’s body, the Seven-Colored Profound Platform began to spin. Black arcs of electricity flickered as vigorous Venerable Power quietly emerged, gathering in his palm.
BZZZT! BZZZT!
The black arcs of electricity flashed across the sky, warping space.
Shen Daoxing thrust out a palm, slamming it into the cage of copper coins surrounding him.
"BOOM!"
An explosive sound erupted.
The golden light abruptly scattered.
The copper coins shot out like marbles as the cage of money shattered.
"!!!"
Wang Mingxuan turned to look at Shen Daoxing, his shock renewed.
A small red dot of light suddenly appeared, growing brighter and brighter. Wu Feihua, now a streak of red light, shot up from the ground, arriving before Shen Daoxing in just a few breaths.
He glanced up at the sky, then looked back at Shen Daoxing with great delight.
"Now that your Dharma Seal is gone, how are you going to fight us!?"
He bellowed, raising the great saber high in his hands.
"Desperate Divine Saber, Nine Heavens Arrogant Dragon Technique!"
