Chapter 1528: Intense Battle Beneath the Earth! (III)

Translated by: Hypersheep325

The bamboo hat leader had been far stronger than his opponents. Even in death, an invisible energy continued to creep through the bodies of the deceased martial artists.

Their skin, hair, fingernails, and even the blood in their veins were slowly turning to stone.

"Kid, you’ve truly got some luck!" the bamboo hat leader loudly said as he loomed like a god. "Since that's the case, I might as well kill you now to prevent any future problems!"

The earth rumbled as the bamboo hat leader moved his massive body filled with boundless strength. His every moment caused the area to tremble as if it couldn't endure his immense might.

Rumble!

With a speed and agility completely out of sorts with his massive body, the Yellow Scarf Warrior charged at Wang Chong.

His massive fist exploded with golden light, wreathed in destructive torrents of energy.

Rumble!

The Yellow Scarf Warrior's fist moved quickly, but Wang Chong's attack came with even greater speed.

Wang Chong showed no signs of backing down against this dreadful power that could petrify martial artists and their Stellar Energy.

Now that he was fully recovered and even stronger than before, he could even fight evenly with Song Yuanyi. Wang Chong was ready to fight with all his might and not give a single inch.

"Art of God and Demon Obliteration!"

Wang Chong instantly used the supreme sword art of the Central Plains.

The air buzzed, and a moment later, a vast sword intent howled out of Wang Chong's body.

A milky-white light filled the world, instantly transforming into a beam of Sword Qi several dozen feet long that shot toward the massive figure of the Yellow Scarf Warrior.

Boom!

These two energies that far surpassed a peak Great General collided in the air.

Crack! For a moment, it felt like space itself was being torn apart, and then fierce gales exploded outward.

Men in black and martial artists were swept up in the violent shockwave.

But in this contest of apparently equal foes, the final result left everyone surprised.

Boom! The white bolt of grandiose Sword Qi tore unstoppably through the almost armor-like Stellar Energy around the Yellow Scarf Warrior.

In a flash, it had struck the thick, rocky arm of the Yellow Scarf Warrior.

"Aaah!"

There was a wretched scream and a thunderous explosion. The Yellow Scarf Warrior staggered backward, his face of stone covered in shock.

"How could this be!?"

The Yellow Scarf Warrior appeared to have been given an extremely bad fright. As he backed away, he cast aside the massive stone arm, which fell apart into rock slabs.

But he was too late.

The other parts of the Yellow Scarf Warrior's body were instantly covered in cracks and began to break away.

Through these cracks in the stone, one could see countless strands of white Sword Qi swimming like snakes through his body.

Even after the clash, the dreadful sword intent and Sword Qi of the Art of God and Demon Obliteration continued to travel through and wreak havoc on his body.

Not only that, the remnants of Wang Chong's Sword Qi had caused the bamboo hat leader to lose control of his Yellow Scarf Warrior body for the first time.

The destructive power of this sword art was greater than he had imagined.

Boom!

The Yellow Scarf Warrior's massive body staggered back, and finally, boom! It crashed into the wall in a great cloud of dust.

"What!?"

For a moment, all was silent. The other two bamboo hat men paled in shock at this sight, disbelief in their eyes.

Their leader's Yellow Scarf Warrior was a top-class art of their organization. After all, this was an art that could turn Stellar Energy into stone. Only those of the Immortal level and above could overcome it.

They would have never believed that the Child of Destruction they were chasing could possess such terrifying strength, breaking their leader's Yellow Scarf Warrior with just one attack.

"Impossible! How could he be this powerful?!"

The second bamboo hat man found it hard to conceal his shock. Of course, he was also the only one of the three who had not exchanged blows with Wang Chong.

But the three bamboo hat men were far from the only ones to be shocked.

"It's him!"

The Righteous Alliance members turned to look and instantly recognized Wang Chong.

"It's that fake Young Master Qingyang!"

"No, that's the Demonic Emperor's disciple! He's also here!"

Wang Chong had once used the name of Young Master Qingyang to stay with the Righteous Alliance for a time. Many people were very familiar with his appearance.

"How could this be!?"

Song Yuanyi and Xie Guangting also took notice of Wang Chong.

The alliance lord and vice alliance lord had been through many trials and had developed calm and steady personalities that were not easily perturbed.

But when they saw Wang Chong slowly descending from the sky, they both grimaced.

Song Yuanyi, Xie Guangting, and the Righteous Alliance experts had all experienced the power of the three bamboo hat men. The Yellow Scarf Warrior in particular was incredibly strong.

When Song Yuanyi had fought with him, he had been in an extremely disadvantageous position. If not for the Eternal Spring Mantra's superb defense, ability to endure long battles, and formidable repulsive power, he probably would have been defeated by the Yellow Scarf Warrior.

"This kid! When did he get so strong?!"

The Black Yin Ancestor and his comrades had also noticed what was going on.

The Black Yin Ancestor had been extremely hard-pressed in his battle. He was singlehandedly dealing with several experts of the same class as the bamboo hat men, and many half–Lu Wus and Black Flame Asuras had also joined in the assault.

These men in black were simply too strong, their martial arts alien to the Central Plains, and they seemed to have an endless number of top-class experts.

Whether it was the Five Ancestor Alliance or Righteous Alliance, they were just barely holding.

Thus, they were stunned to see Wang Chong defeat the strongest of the three bamboo hat men, the Yellow Scarf Warrior, with only a single strike.

This was the overwhelming strength of a war god, and on this perilous battlefield, it instantly made many people envious and admiring.

At this moment, the only person who had remained completely calm and unaffected was Wang Chong.

Art of God and Demon Obliteration!

This was a supreme technique inherited from Great Tang War God Su Zhengchen. It was a transcendent sword art that had been used to hold a city against tens of thousands of otherworldly invaders. It was excruciatingly difficult to cultivate, and one could spend decades without reaching the level of major understanding.

Ever since Wang Chong had obtained it, he had been stuck at the level of minor understanding. In the mediocre realms of the True Martial realm and Profound Martial realm, minor understanding would have been more than enough. But it was incredibly lacking in the range of the peak Saint Martial realm to half-step Subtle.

In normal circumstances, Wang Chong would truly have needed several decades to reach the level of major understanding.

But with the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art, the boundless and unfathomable might of the Origin Immortal Sword, and the small portion of the Origin Immortal Art he had obtained, Wang Chong had finally been able to convert his Stellar Energy into God Demon Obliteration Stellar Energy!

He had been able to completely bypass the incredibly difficult cultivation process of the Art of God and Demon Obliteration. For the first time, he was using the God Demon Obliteration energy at the level of major understanding.

Each of the ten great arts of the Central Plains had their own specialty. While the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art was powerful, that was merely in the aspect of increasing one's power and when targeting an opponent's Stellar Energy. In terms of true offensive power, however, only the Art of God and Demon Obliteration could fully make use of Wang Chong's immense reserves of Stellar Energy.

"In that case…!"

As Wang Chong calmly landed on the ground, his body radiating energy, he passed his eyes over the fallen Yellow Scarf Warrior, a hint of surprise in them.

He was still not too familiar with the Art of God and Demon Obliteration, as he had not had enough time to fully grasp its inner workings. But as he used it more and more, he would gradually be able to exhibit its full might!

"Hmph, a thorn has appeared. It seems to be that Child of Destruction!" the man with the three-eyed deer mask standing near the passage suddenly said, his eyes coldly gleaming.

He was keeping track of the entire battlefield and had seen that both Song Yuanyi and the Black Yin Ancestor were completely suppressed. But Wang Chong had defeated two of the three bamboo hat men, with not even the strongest Yellow Scarf Warrior able to hold him down.

The deer-masked man had seen Wang Chong before, at the heart of the Origin Immortal Formation, and he had been mere moments from capturing him. But the deer-masked man had not expected that the Wang Chong that the three bamboo hat men had been chasing would appear here, and that he would defeat the Yellow Scarf Warrior with just one strike.

As the man with the three-eyed deer mask prepared to go forward, the man with the golden-red tiger mask spoke in his deep and emotionless voice. "Goat Immortal, you should go. Since the Yellow Scarf Warrior can't complete his mission, go and kill the boy for him!"

The three of them had been standing on the sidelines this entire time. While this had partially been out of pride in their status, it was also to act as a reserve so that they could be ready at any time to deal with suddenly emerging thorns like the Child of Destruction.

"Understood! It's just a tiny ant! Let me end him!"

The man with the four-horned goat mask, the 'Goat Immortal', looked at Wang Chong and faintly chuckled. He took two steps forward, a scornful look in his eyes, and then his body suddenly erupted with an energy that could cause the entire world to pale.

All the air for one hundred feet around him suddenly began to twist and distort.
