Chapter 908: Chapter 908: Complete Victory
This is not the power of primordial energy bursting from the body, but the sheer physical strength that directly shattered the space force field, causing space to crack.
Because all the spatial forces within the combat arena were shattered, within this range, one could only rely on their own body to fight.
Numerous clones shattered, Qi Tianxin wielded a round shield that instantly transformed into a sphere, completely enveloping his body, countering the force of the space shattering.
Those familiar with the shield immediately recognized it as the All-Solid Shield, reputed to be indestructible.
The All-Solid Shield possesses resistance to all attribute secret laws, diminishing the effectiveness of various laws by up to eighty percent, and with its secret god-like material, it is virtually unbreakable.
Yet under the blow in this shattered space force field, the All-Solid Shield trembled violently and instantly fractured into countless pieces.
Everyone was shocked at this punch, as such battle strength unleashed purely by physical power defied the term "terrifying." Even the strongest secret spirit’s physique was unlikely to reach this level.
Xiu Jie Ming stood on the ruins-like combat platform, while Qi Tianxin remained unharmed, reappearing in the higher sky.
The position he found himself in had already exceeded the original scope of the combat arena.
Theoretically, the area within the protective shield is the extent of the combat arena; being knocked outside this range equates to losing the match.
However, since the protective shield had already been destroyed, there were no clear boundaries anymore.
Nonetheless, Qi Tianxin’s position far exceeded the original site of the arena by who knows how many times, and it was obvious to anyone that he had left the original range.
"Qi Tianxin lost," Qin Qiu said, squinting his eyes.
Everyone else understood that Qi Tianxin had already lost; the moment the All-Solid Shield broke was his last chance.
But Qi Tianxin chose not to fight but to retreat completely, making the loss indisputable.
"You won." Qi Tianxin’s figure descended slowly onto the ruins, looking calmly at Xiu Jie Ming.
He did not struggle or attempt to challenge the rules; he admitted defeat just like that.
"Qi Tianxin, what are you doing? You’re still within the arena’s range, you haven’t lost; the arena never stipulated that you couldn’t ascend to a higher altitude," Feng Wuci stood up excitedly, addressing Qi Tianxin.
"I’ve already lost," Qi Tianxin said lightly, walking out of the arena.
"Qi... Tian... Xin..." Feng Wuci’s voice turned shrill: "You are the Master of the Court, my husband, a man, you should fight for your honor, you can’t admit defeat like this, you haven’t lost yet."
"A loss is a loss, it doesn’t change because of who I am." Qi Tianxin spoke while turning to look at Chen Guan, then approached Chen Guan and Ji Nanhong.
"I lost. I’m the one who should apologize. I’m sorry, I was foolish as a pig, blind to your merits. If I had another chance, I would definitely keep you in the Celestial Court Army and let you inherit Old Ji’s legacy to glorify the army. If you were by my side, I might still have a chance to achieve the dream Old Ji and I had back then. Sadly, time cannot be reversed, and all I can do is offer you my apologies." With that said, Qi Tianxin turned and left.
"Qi... Tian... Xin..." Feng Wuci angrily called, chasing after him.
Chen Guan did not stop her; Qi Tianxin came to apologize on Feng Wuci’s behalf, and it was not appropriate to demand another apology from Feng Wuci.
The election ended with Xiu Jie Ming crowned as king, becoming the new master of the Ancestral Court.
However, there would be a transitional month for the handover, after which Xiu Jie Ming would need to restructure his team, causing various positions within the Ancestral Court to change.
Chen Guan and Ji Nanhong would have to wait a month before they could rejoin the Celestial Court Army.
"I want Chen Guan dead... I want Chen Guan dead..." Feng Wuci repeated this sentence through gritted teeth over and over.
"Qi Tianxin lost, you lost too. A loss is to be acknowledged. Qi Tianxin acknowledged it, and so should you," the Celestial King looked at his daughter and sighed.
"Why should I acknowledge it? I am your daughter, the wife of the Ancestral Court’s master, why should I acknowledge it? What is Chen Guan to deserve such respect?" Feng Wuci said angrily.
"At Chen Guan’s age, I was no Celestial King, only an ordinary cultivator. Qi Tianxin was not the Ancestral Court’s master from birth, either; he started as an ordinary cultivator. Being my daughter, his wife, how are you any more noble than others? Moreover, Qi Tianxin is no longer the Ancestral Court’s master, you should recognize your own position." The Celestial King spoke.
"I want Chen Guan dead." Feng Wuci stubbornly stared at the Celestial King.
"Didn’t you hear what I said? It seems I’ve spoiled you too much, making you so unscrupulous." The Celestial King said calmly, "When you borrowed the God-Sealing Map last time, I already told you it was the last time; don’t involve the Feng Family with your and Qi Tianxin’s matters again."
"Will you really not help your daughter?" Feng Wuci asked, biting her lip.
"I cannot help you. The Feng Family is not just mine or yours; it cannot be implicated because of you alone. Now that Xiu Jie Ming has taken the throne, and Chen Guan and Ji Nanhong will surely return to the Celestial Court Army, the Feng Family cannot afford to make such enemies because of you."
"Fine, if you won’t help me, I’ll take revenge with my own hands," Feng Wuci turned to leave without hesitation, not looking back.
Even the battle-hardened Celestial King, accustomed to countless storms, felt powerless at this moment.
Power cannot solve every problem, and it seems he failed to educate his daughter properly.
Chen Guan returned to the Great Cave Heaven of the Ji Family, finding Ji Fenglie standing guard.
"Ji Fenglie, our opportunity has come," Chen Guan said lightly, dressed in armor as he approached Ji Fenglie.
"What opportunity?" Ji Fenglie asked, somewhat puzzled.
"You haven’t received the news within the Great Cave Heaven; the Chief Judge position in the Ancestral Court has changed hands. Qi Tianxin and Feng Wuci no longer have the Ancestral Court’s protection," Chen Guan said calmly.
"Is this true? Are you planning to move against them?" Ji Fenglie was taken aback, "Even without the Ancestral Court’s backing, Feng Wuci is still the Celestial King’s daughter. Aren’t you afraid of trouble from the Celestial King?"
Initially, Ji Fenglie intended to ask, but recalling the Great Demon’s capabilities, he swallowed his words.
"Don’t you want to avenge your imprisonment?" Chen Guan was aware of Ji Fenglie’s grievances.
Ji Fenglie grinned at the words, cold light glinting in his eyes, "Of course I do, but those two are deeply cunning. It won’t be easy to catch an opportunity to kill them."
"I have my ways," Chen Guan said lightly.
