Chapter 1380 – Equity
An Zheng didn’t even manage to differentiate between whether he was in a dream or coming out in a few seconds. When he could clearly see everything that was happening, the golden bodies of the Dao Sect disciples had already been suppressed, and ordinary boxes of food were floating in the air. Every single golden body was kneeling on the ground, as though there were tens of thousands of mountains pressing down on his back.
“You don’t know where you’ve been.”
The old man from the Forbidden Area of Dragon sighed, “If it wasn’t for Xuan-Yuan telling me this, I wouldn’t believe that anyone would ever be able to reach such heights.”
As for how Xuan-Yuan knew this, even the old man did not seem to know.
The food box slowly opened in mid air, and streams of air currents flew out and surrounded An Zheng’s body. These streams of air had a kind of familiar feeling. Before An Zheng had the chance to think about what kind of familiar feeling it was, these streams of air had already entered into his body through every single one of his pores. In an instant, An Zheng felt all his limbs and bones go soft, as if he had never felt such a comfortable sensation before.
His Qi channels had unknowingly been widened, and he felt that every cell in his body was being nourished.
This period of time continued for quite a while, at least a few minutes. During these few minutes, Tan Shanse had the urge to rush out more than once, but no matter which direction he charged in, he found the old man from the Dragon’s Forbidden Area sitting in front of him and waiting. When he returned, it was as if the old man hadn’t moved at all. He just sat there the whole time.
“It seems like today is the day to end things.”
Tan Shanse decided to stop running and stood there waiting for An Zheng.
A few minutes later, all of the energy flow was absorbed into An Zheng’s body through his pores, as if a layer of faint white light had appeared outside of his body, which was not dazzling at all. An Zheng’s body slowly rose as he opened his arms. A faint strand of black energy flew out from his pores, as the air that had entered his body earlier pushed all the impurities out of his body. As the black aura was released, An Zheng’s body began to radiate with a near sacred luster.
An Zheng could clearly feel that his bones had changed yet again. If it was said that an ordinary person’s bones were white with fine holes on them, then An Zheng’s bones were the color of white jade, and one could barely see the fine holes. After this baptism, An Zheng’s bones had already become completely jade, sparkling and translucent. The density of his bones was so high that it was simply unimaginable. This bone itself had already reached the level of a Purple-Rank Divine Artifact.
An Zheng clenched his fist tightly, and a mighty aura was released from his body, blowing all the dust within the underground palace far away. Every single one of them had to raise their hands to block their eyes. The hurricane blew them almost unsteady.
Tan Shanse looked at An Zheng who was in that state, and in his heart, he was still constantly thinking of a way to escape. He had obtained the power of awakening, so he felt that if he were to fight him one on one, even if An Zheng were to also obtain the power of awakening, it wouldn’t matter much. At the very least, he wouldn’t be killed. What he was worried about was that old fogey from the Dragon’s Forbidden Domain. That old man’s strength was probably on par with the Three Immortals Emperor of the Immortal Palace.
The Supreme Dragon of the Forbidden Area, the Immortal Queen of the East China Sea Yaochi, and the Buddha of the Buddhist Sect in the Western Regions, their abilities were not far from the Three Immortals Emperor of the Immortal Palace. The strength of the Buddha of the Western Regions was probably even stronger than the Green Lotus Xuan-Yuan.
“I’ll just take a look at the matters between the two of you.”
The old man from the Forbidden Dragon Region shrugged his shoulders and said, “As an elder, you can’t meddle in fights between youngsters.”
Tan Shanse snorted: “How hypocritical.”
The old man said indifferently, “In terms of hypocrisy, there are few who are better than you.”
Tan Shanse did not object, and pointed at Diao Yuan who was standing far away: “She has nothing to do with this. No matter who dies or dies between An Zheng and I, we cannot implicate the woman of the other party. An Zheng, you should also be clear how many times I have schemed to kill you, but have never had any intention to kill your woman. ”
An Zheng acknowledged: “It’s between you and me.”
Tan Shanse stretched his arms out wide, and said while pacing: “A gentleman first a villain, let her go first. I know you’re all men of your word, but I have to watch her go first. ”
Diao Yuan shook her head while standing in the distance: “I’m not leaving. I’m wherever you are.”
Tan Shanse snorted, “Idiot … If I give you a chance to live, then cherish it. Watch me die? You close your eyes and think about how ugly I’ll be when I die. Instead of letting you see that tragic and ugly appearance, I’d rather let you leave with my most beautiful memories. When you think of me in the future, I will still be graceful, not bleeding all over my face. ”
Diao Yuan gritted her teeth and turned around, the old man from the Dragon’s Forbidden Area looked at An Zheng and frowned: “Are you really going to let me go? If this Tan Shanse allowed her to bring along something related to his bloodline and leave, even if you defeat him, the thing that has his aura on that woman’s body, might cause him to be reborn. ”
He raised his hand and pointed at the purple crystal that was shimmering on the roof. “Tan Shanse knows the way these things are used, better than anyone else. He let this woman go first, so he didn’t have to worry about it anymore. He tried to escape more than ten times, but I stopped him. He looked up at the roof three times and looked away as soon as he caught sight of it, but he couldn’t hide it from me. “So …”
An Zheng nodded, “I know, it’s not that he’s looking at the roof amethyst three times, but five times. And what you said is right, that girl called Diao Yuan must have brought along a blood vessels with him. As long as she leaves, I can’t kill Tan Shanse. Even if the person in front of him was hacked into pieces, he would be reborn. Furthermore, he will not give me the chance to hack him into pieces. He will only hide his ability to escape through the amethyst. ”
“You know why you let her go?”
The old man glared at An Zheng hatefully.
An Zheng slowly heaved a sigh of relief, “Because if he can’t escape, he can’t live either.”
After he finished speaking, An Zheng made a grabbing motion in the air with one hand, causing the amethyst on the rooftop to experienceversal. Previously, it was to send energy towards the sky, but now it was sending energy from the sky. Vast amounts of star power came from outside the region, covering the entire roof of the amethyst.
Tan Shanse’s expression suddenly changed.
An Zheng slowly closed his right eye and at the same time, his Reverse Scale Armor appeared and covered his entire body. The red crystal in his left eye gave off a devilish feeling, and the stars in his left eye flowed around. In Inside the Immortal Palace, the energy that came from beyond the borders of the realms was being transferred into An Zheng’s body through the Eye of Nine Incarnations.
“It looks like there really is no other way out.”
Tan Shanse waved his hand, and a purple long spear formed in the air. Following his finger pointing forward, the purple long spear shot towards An Zheng. There did not seem to be much of a scene, nor was there any exploding aura, but the power on the long spear represented the strength of a peak Celestial Sovereign Ranker.
The pike flew straight at An Zheng, but Chen Shaobai, who was behind, spat out a mouthful of blood, his face pale white. Then there was Monkey. He couldn’t help but fall to the ground, both of his hands shaking uncontrollably.
An Zheng reached ouand behind him, and a purple shield of light appeared within his palm to block right in front of them. Then, his right hand grabbed onto the Eight-Fold Black Heavy Ruler’s wheel and he sent it flying. With a dang sound, the purple longspear collided with the Eight-Fold Black Heavy Ruler and the Eight-Fold Black Heavy Ruler actually cracked apart with a kacha sound … That was an Advanced Divine Artifact, but it was actually cracked by Tan Shanse with a single strike.
When one reached the strength of the peak of Celestial Sovereign, their Purple-Rank and weapons were actually unable to withstand a single blow. And amongst the cultivators who were at the peak of Celestial Sovereign, only the super divine tools above Purple-Rank could match up to their strength.
Putting the Eight-Fold Black Heavy Ruler to the side, An Zheng threw a punch towards Tan Shanse. Tan Shanse did not dodge. Instead, he also threw a punch at An Zheng’s fist. Upon reaching this level of battle, he felt as if he’d returned to his original state. One punch, one punch. There was nothing fancy about it. Furthermore, everyone could clearly see each of their strikes. According to common sense, cultivators at this level should be unable to keep up with their speed of attack every time they attacked.
The building of this place was sturdy enough and had been built by the Dao Sect Successor Disciples with all their might. Therefore, they did not need to worry about it collapsing.
“The showdown between us is actually such a cliché.”
Tan Shanse waved his hand to deflect An Zheng’s punch, and then, the millions of golden light around his body exploded outwards, charging straight towards An Zheng. Millions of golden beams of light that were at the level of the light shield appeared in front of An Zheng to block the attack, and a beam of light that was condensed from the light shield shot towards Tan Shanse witumming sound. Tan Shanse’s black umbrella suddenly split apart, turning into two black reptiles that slithered around his body. When the beam of light arrived, one of the black reptiles landed on his right hand, forming an iron palm that covered his right hand.
Tan Shanse raised his right hand to block the light beam and the light beam shot out, forming a deep groove in the ground.
He was covered in a myriad of gold lights, and the sword rain was smashing straight towards An Zheng. An Zheng raised his light shield and moved forward, all the golden swords on his light shield exploded, and the shattered light swords flew out everywhere. Even if it was jusiny fragment of it, it could still kill Celestial Sovereign early stage cultivators.
“Fighting, killing, and war have never had an elegant way of doing things.”
An Zheng replied as his left hand fiercely grabbed forward. The long purple dragons flew up from the ground one after another, wanting to lock Tan Shanse in. Tan Shanse travelled back and forth amidst the purple dragon that had exploded outwards. He faced those purple long dragons with his back to An Zheng, but it was as if there waair of eyes on his back.
He reached down and a layer of frost covered the ground. The long purple lightning dragons that had exploded were all frozen and shattered on the ground. To be able to freeze the power of thunder and also shatter it, this sort of terrifying power of freezing ice caused one’s scalp to go numb.
Gigantic ice cones appeared one after another. Wherever An Zheng went, these ice cones would attack him from all directions. A ball of blazing light emitted from An Zheng’s body, and the ice spike that was comparable to a Purple-Rank Divine Artifact was actually melted.
The two were evenly matched. It seemed that the war would not end so easily.
