Chapter 302: Venerable Invincible, Huangliang’s Moment
Just as the ten rainbows were about to strike Shen Daoxing, he sensed the danger. The light from the Seven-Colored Profound Platform within him flared brightly, and he transformed into a streak of light, rocketing into the sky.
However, he had only just leaped.
"...#@%...¥..."
A series of strange whispers echoed in the air, like ghosts murmuring in his ear or demons roaring at his side.
Suddenly.
Shen Daoxing saw a black light flash before him. A pair of utterly bizarre, massive black eyes appeared in front of him, followed by Xu Hong’s colossal Dharma Aspect.
"Stop!"
A deep voice emanated from Xu Hong’s mouth.
It was like a Yama Decree from the Underworld—not to be defied.
In that instant, Shen Daoxing’s figure abruptly froze, strangely suspended in mid-air. It wasn’t just Shen Daoxing; everything around him had stopped. The leaves rising with the wind, the debris shooting through the air, even the birds flying high above—everything came to a halt, as if the entire world had been frozen solid.
No!
The speed of everything in the world had slowed—by a hundredfold, a thousandfold, ten-thousandfold—to the point that it seemed as if time itself had stopped.
Only Xu Hong remained unaffected. He slowly extended his giant palm, bringing it down on Shen Daoxing’s head like a mountain crashing down.
Meanwhile, the ten greatswords hurtling toward Shen Daoxing showed no signs of slowing down, closing in to annihilate him from all directions.
Far from the battlefield, beneath a massive boulder, the Tianze Emperor’s eyes flew open. ’That’s... that’s a Divine Technique! A Great Divine Technique that can directly affect the laws of heaven and earth! Xu Hong has actually mastered Divine Techniques!’
The Tianze Emperor’s eyes widened in disbelief. ’That’s a power only those at the Refining Dust Realm should be able to master! How did Xu Hong do it?’
’To grasp Divine Power at the Earth Profound Realm... In the entire history of the East Continent, perhaps only that peerless genius from five hundred years ago, Dugu Sheng, was capable of such a feat.’
THUD!
The Tianze Emperor’s legs suddenly gave way, and he collapsed to his knees. His eyes, wide with disbelief, stared blankly ahead. ’It’s hopeless! This time, my Tianze is truly finished! Doomed! It will be destroyed because of me, its unworthy descendant!’
And at this critical moment, Shen Daoxing’s tiny figure was about to be devoured by the ten greatswords.
At that moment.
"Venerable Invincible, Huangliang’s Moment!"
A majestic voice suddenly rang out across the sky.
The next moment, Shen Daoxing, who had been frozen in mid-air, vanished without any warning, as if he had been erased from existence.
Immediately after.
Tens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of silvery-white sword gleams appeared all at once.
Like a flash of light in the darkness.
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH...
In a single instant, they had already slashed through, cutting through everything in the vicinity.
Instantly, the ten greatswords that had streaked across the sky like rainbows came to an abrupt halt.
The next moment.
BOOM!
With a massive explosion, they all shattered at once.
Only then did Shen Daoxing’s figure reappear.
He stood atop the Venerable Dharma Seal, the Great Ming Demon Sparrow in his hand, having already appeared above Xu Hong’s head, looking down with indifference.
Despite his small frame, Shen Daoxing showed no weakness before Xu Hong’s giant Dharma Aspect. Even facing Xu Hong, who seemed like an Exiled Immortal, his eyes remained utterly indifferent, as if he were looking at nothing more than an ant.
It was the disdain of an absolute superior.
Xu Hong looked up, stunned, then simply raised his hand and pointed a finger toward the sky.
"Stop!"
A Yama Decree, freezing the very heavens!
The leaves drifting in the sky stopped. The flying debris stopped. Even the birds high above stopped, frozen bizarrely in the air. Everything in the vicinity came to a halt.
This was the Divine Power that could control heaven and earth.
However, Shen Daoxing, floating above Xu Hong’s head, was completely unaffected.
’Venerable Invincible, Huangliang’s Moment!’
Because he was faster—hundreds, thousands, even tens of thousands of times faster than Xu Hong.
So fast that in the blink of an eye to Xu Hong,
Shen Daoxing had already vanished. The next moment, hundreds, thousands, even tens of thousands of Shen Daoxings appeared all around him.
This was not a cloning ability. His speed was simply too great. In a mere instant, he had already unleashed hundreds and thousands of sword strikes.
ZZZZT!
Countless arcs of black lightning flickered.
They appeared with the tens of thousands of sword gleams, surrounding Xu Hong’s Dharma Aspect from above, below, and all sides.
The space around them began to twist without warning, stretching long one moment, narrowing the next, then expanding.
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
...
In an instant, tens of thousands of sword gleams detonated simultaneously, erupting in a brilliant explosion of light.
CRACK!
The sound of something tearing apart rang out.
The next moment, a shocking crack appeared on Xu Hong’s giant Dharma Aspect, running from the top of his head all the way down to one of his feet.
Huangliang’s Moment, a myriad of drifting phantoms.
"???"
’This power!’
Not far away, beneath the massive boulder, the Tianze Emperor’s eyes widened in shock. ’That... that power is also Divine Power! This kid has also mastered Divine Techniques, and his cultivation is only at the Spirit Transformation realm!’
’A monster! He’s an absolute monster!’
The Tianze Emperor stared ahead, his eyes wide with astonishment and disbelief.
The great power of Divine Techniques comes from heaven and earth. One must connect with heaven and earth to borrow their power, a feat only cultivators at the Earth Profound Realm and above can accomplish.
For Xu Hong, at the Earth Profound Realm, to master Divine Power was shocking and incredible, but it wasn’t unprecedented.
But to master Divine Power with the cultivation of the Spirit Transformation realm—that had never happened in the history of the East Continent!
The Tianze Emperor stood frozen in place, staring ahead in shock, his eyes filled with utter disbelief.
Venerable Invincible, Huangliang’s Moment!
A Divine Technique of heaven and earth.
This was, naturally, the supreme power Shen Daoxing had comprehended from the Venerable Dharma Seal.
Back then, within the Venerable Dharma Seal in Huangliang’s Tomb, he had witnessed the destruction of the universe, the rise and fall of the Human Race, and endless cycles of reincarnation, annihilation, and rebirth.
Myriad upon myriad of years of reincarnation passed in a single night.
In the past, the Huangliang Immortal had comprehended the Law Power of the Space-Time Law from the Venerable Dharma Seal, using it to create the Huangliang Secret Realm.
As a natural-born Venerable Supreme and the original master of the Venerable Dharma Seal, how could Shen Daoxing not have comprehended something from it?
It was only that his cultivation had previously been too low to use it.
"Hmm???"
Xu Hong froze, looking down at his own body. He then abruptly looked up at Shen Daoxing. "This is Divine Power!"
And the next moment.
"Venerable Invincible, Huangliang’s Moment!"
Shen Daoxing took a single step forward, and in an instant, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of Shen Daoxings appeared.
Then, the tens of thousands of Shen Daoxings simultaneously raised the Great Ming Demon Sparrows in their hands.
"Venerable Taboo, Kunlun Duanyue!"
