Chapter 1290 - 1291: Battle for the Throne
Who today truly deserves to be the undisputed first in this generation?
Is it Demon Heaven, or Zhan Tian?
"Brother Zhan, please!" Demon Heaven spoke with a smile, his tone quite respectful. Although Zhan Tian had already been won over by Demon Heaven, the seat of number one needed to distinguish who was truly the leading figure of the youth generation.
"Then forgive me!"
Swish!
As the words fell, Sword Qi surged, followed by Zhan Tian’s hand revealing a pitch-black long sword, exuding terrifying Sword Power. Although it’s a Mortal Weapon, with the blessing of this sword, Zhan Tian’s Sword Power seemed to ascend another tier.
Both exuded a domineering arrogance, invincible.
At the same time, every pore of the many people tightened; this would be a Peak battle.
For Demon Heaven, he represented Celestial Demon City and could not afford defeat.
"Kill!" Demon Heaven shouted vigorously. The Golden-Winged Roc split infinitely, as if shadows of the Roc were everywhere, each seemed to be a real presence, the Golden Roc Ling Tian could shake the heavens.
An ancient saying goes, "The great Roc spreads its wings, lamenting the low skies, crashing to death."
Although the Golden Roc is not truly a great Roc, it has a touch of a Roc’s grandeur; the terrifying demon might swept across the heavens, and infinite Roc shadows grabbed towards Zhan Tian instantly.
As the Roc shadows appeared, the heavens trembled, the terrifying demon might was enough to destroy everything.
Moreover, Demon Heaven himself seemed to have transformed into the Golden Roc, extremely domineering.
Zhan Tian did not dodge at all, Sword Intent Ling Tian, with rampant demon might raging, rendering the void vortex endless, which seemed to present a bottomless black hole. Suddenly, within that black hole, a giant sword slashed, annihilating everything.
Bang bang bang~
Endless thunderous noise emerged from the void, as if it shattered, those infinite Roc shadows crumbled under the giant sword, terrifying Laws suffused the sky, as if the entire world consisted only of the two.
Swish!
Demon Heaven saw this, with no expression change. If one hit defeated Zhan Tian, then it wouldn’t be Zhan Tian.
Immediately, Demon Heaven was seen burning with rolling flames, these flames were golden.
The Golden Roc seemed to be reborn in fire, a Golden Roc arose from the flames, this was Demon Heaven’s Life Soul, its release oppressed the heavens.
"Destroy!" Zhan Tian grunted coldly, and behind him, an unparalleled Demon Venerable stood over him, silver pupils, soul-capturing, then the demon’s giant hand extended, grabbing towards the Golden-Winged Roc.
The Demon Palm Seal contained monstrous destructive Sword Power.
Bang!
The attack clashed again, the void stirred up endless whirlpools.
"Divine Punishment!" Zhan Tian shouted, instantly condensing another attack, it was Divine Punishment. As Divine Punishment emerged, vast heavens rolled with Mo Yun, heavenly shadows dotted everywhere, as if punishing the heavens.
"Divide!" Demon Heaven grunted coldly, the Golden Roc’s wings sliced through the void, seemingly slicing the heavens in two, those demon shadows annihilated the void, yet Zhan Tian stepped forward, where he went, remnants were endless, and the skies changed colors.
Demon Heaven watched this, his eyes had slight waves; today, beyond him, Demon Heaven, no one else would be a match for Zhan Tian.
Then, Demon Heaven’s body ascended into the air, his expression filled with arrogance. The Golden-Winged Roc he released grabbed within the void, the remnants vanished, then he stepped forward, the Roc crowed loudly.
Suddenly, endless claw marks tore through the sky, carried rolling demon might clawing towards the opponent, annihilating all.
At the Divine Level, such intense combat could erupt, those present had never seen it before, their hearts trembled wildly. Neither kept anything hidden, both confronting each other with their strongest stance.
After this battle, the first and second of the Wind and Cloud Banquet would surely be revealed.
Looking at the approaching claws, Zhan Tian’s pupils turned crimson, at the same time, his long sword hummed, his battle intent not the least bit diminished.
Then, he swung his sword down, the void’s galaxies were endless.
Bang~
Under his sword strike, the claw shattered.
Boom~
Zhan Tian stepped forward, drawing remnants, his figure lunged towards the opponent, evidently seeking close combat.
Yet unsurprising, the Roc suited long range, without approaching, the Roc would not perish.
Only by destroying the opponent’s Life Soul Golden Roc could this battle end.
However, Demon Heaven seemed to have anticipated this, as the Roc spread its wings, soared, the wings tore through the void, endless feathers shot down towards Zhan Tian, where they passed, the space seemed to be torn apart.
"Humph!" Zhan Tian grunted coldly, his sword grew incomparably large, Laws descended from the sky, empowering the sword. Instantly, within the void, a pitch-black Sword Aura spanned there, slashing towards Demon Heaven.
Too shocking.
Watching such a violent battle, the crowd was enraptured.
Their erupted power was overwhelmingly intense, completely overriding the same level.
No one doubted their power.
"Split!" Demon Heaven shouted, the Golden Roc’s claws as if cast from gold, breaking through all, sharply unparalleled, then the void-slashed Sword Aura, pfft pfft~ was actually torn apart by the claws. The Roc crowed once, diving down.
Seeing this, Zhan Tian’s expression finally changed. He sensed a deadly danger from this strike.
Indeed, the diving Golden Roc broke through all defenses and despite Zhan Tian’s terrifying defense, it was difficult to withstand. Then came a soft pop~ there was the sound, Zhan Tian’s chest revealed a bloody wound, just an inch away from the heart.
His body fell to the battle stage.
This was still Demon Heaven’s mercy, otherwise, perhaps that claw mark would directly grab out Zhan Tian’s heart and tear it apart.
"You, lost!" Demon Heaven stood on the battle stage, surveying Zhan Tian. His breath mildly fluctuating, apparently also internally injured, yet after this battle, it was still Demon Heaven who reached the peak.
As for the incomparably strong Zhan Tian, he faced his opponent, his expression unruffled.
At the Wind and Cloud Banquet, aside from Demon Heaven, who else was a match for Zhan Tian?
Then, Zhan Tian spoke to Demon Heaven: "Indeed, I lost. You certainly deserve to claim the top of the Wind and Cloud Banquet, the first, none other than you!"
"You are already very strong, if you persisted a little longer, perhaps the one to lose would be me, therefore, the first seat might have changed hands!"
But Zhan Tian laughed: "Brother Demon jokes, a loss is a loss, and I admit defeat willingly. If this generation’s Wind and Cloud Banquet, your Celestial Demon City hadn’t joined, I would undoubtedly be the first!"
Zhan Tian’s words found considerable agreement among many; in this year’s Wind and Cloud Banquet competition, without Celestial Demon City, who else from the Vast Ice Sea City could stop Zhan Tian’s advance? After all, Mo Qingluan had already been defeated by him.
Demon Heaven nodded, then his gaze turned towards Mo Xuan seated high on the city tower, the implication was clear.
Beside Mo Xuan, Yao Cang sarcastically said to Mo Xuan: "Wind and Cloud Banquet, after this generation, Brother Mo might have no face left to hold another Wind and Cloud Banquet, right?"
It was a taunt, yet unsurprising; now that the first of the Wind and Cloud Banquet was taken by his Celestial Demon City, how would Mo Xuan have any face to hold another Wind and Cloud Banquet in the future? Furthermore, this generation’s banquet would always be a humiliation for Mo Xuan.
Indeed, Mo Xuan’s expression wasn’t looking good.
"Is the Wind and Cloud Banquet over?"
Just as Yao Cang was indulging in delight, a refreshing voice sounded.
Swoosh swoosh~
Many gazes fell on Xiao Tianyu, revealing a peculiar expression.
Then, the crowd saw Xiao Tianyu slowly rise in the air, glancing over at Demon Heaven and Zhan Tian, coldly smirking inside, he Xiao Tianyu had yet to battle, yet these two already claimed the first with a word.
Was he, Xiao Tianyu, nothing?
