When a silver armor shrouded Zhou Yuanâs body, rainbow lights also bloomed from his eyes. The gourd silhouette that was between an illusory and solid state in his Divine Dwellings suddenly vibrated.
Boom!
Waves of terrifying energy were emitted from Zhou Yuanâs body, shattering the nearby s.p.a.ce. Then, an indescribably sharp qi emerged that seemed capable of tearing the world apart.
The entire battlefield quaked under such an atmosphere.
Mi s.h.i.+, who was Zhou Yuanâs opponent, immediately noticed the terrifying energy waves, and his expression grew solemn. He said indifferently, âIâve heard from Ji Mo that you possess an amazing Saint Genesis Art. Are you finally bringing it out now?â
The trump card that Zhou Yuan had, which Mi s.h.i.+ was most afraid of, was obviously the Saint Genesis Art that caused Ji Moâs Sacred Pupil to be sealed.
Everyoneâs gazes were fixed on the battlefield.
They could feel that Zhou Yuan was getting serious.
But it was still unknown whether the astonis.h.i.+ngly powerful Saint Genesis Art he summoned could reverse their situation.
Ai Qing, who was helping Guan Qinglong to lift the seal, scrunched her beautiful brows when she saw the changes on the battlefield. "Captain Zhou Yuan's move isnât wise. His main task now is to stall for time. There is no need to clash with Mi s.h.i.+ again, what ifâŚâ
Although Zhou Yuan was at a disadvantage in his previous match against Mi s.h.i.+, he was still able to stall Mi s.h.i.+. Ai Qing felt that Zhou Yuan only needed to continue to stall Mi s.h.i.+, and there was no need to take such a risk because if he failed, who else could restrain Mi s.h.i.+?
Su Youwei said suddenly, "Mi s.h.i.+ is a strong enemy and there is a gap between His Highness's Genesis Qi foundation and his. If His Highness dragged on the battle, it could be even more dangerous for him. So itâs better to take a risk. From my understanding of His Highness, he wouldnât take such a huge risk if he didnât have confidence.â
Ai Qing glanced at the girl, whose face and elegance stunned even her. How could she not hear from Su Youweiâs tone that she was defending Zhou Yuan. She wasnât a person who liked to argue so she said calmly, âDo you think captain Zhou Yuan can defeat Mi s.h.i.+ under such danger? Of course I hope so, because that would be the best result, but you canât deny that he might fail, right?â
"Then I will step forward. Even if I die here, I will stop him for a while,â Su Youwei replied calmly.
Everyone looked at each other awkwardly. Although the two women didnât say much, everyone present could feel their conflict.
But Wu Yao suddenly opened her mouth and said indifferently, "Zhou Yuan isnât an idiot. He should know the consequences. Since he has made that choice, he knows the result wouldnât be worse than delaying Mi s.h.i.+.â
Although she had a deep grudge with Zhou Yuan, Zhou Yuan was still a Hunyuan Heaven citizen. Right now, he was fighting with his life to resist a strong enemy while they were standing around, so they shouldn't question his choice.
Guan Qinglong also felt a little helpless when he saw the three women arguing. He smiled wryly and said, âCaptain Ai Qing, let's concentrate on helping me break the seal. No matter what captain Zhou Yuan chooses, I will be able to end it once the seal is lifted.â
His voice was full of confidence.
This was the arrogance of being the strongest in Hunyuan Heavenâs Heavenly Sun stage. Although he was sealed by an ultimate move from his teammate not long after the battle started⌠it was not his fault.
Ai Qing didn't say anything else. She closed her eyes and tried to speed up the process of removing the seal.
...
Om!
As a terrifying aura acc.u.mulated, Zhou Yuan, who was covered by silver armor, slowly lifted his hand into the air and a ray of rainbow light emerged in his palm. The light, stunning and dazzling, resembled a rainbow fish.
But when it appeared, the s.p.a.ce around Zhou Yuan was constantly being torn, creating dark traces.
Beneath the armor, eyes that were as cold and piercingly sharp as a blade locked on Mi s.h.i.+. Then, Zhou Yuan lifted his hand.
âRainbow Sky Severing Sword Light!â
Swoos.h.!.+
A ray of rainbow light shot out, speeding across s.p.a.ce.
Roar!
A roar rang out from Mi s.h.i.+âs throat as he frantically retreated. But no matter how he moved and evaded, the s.p.a.ce in front of him crumbled and the ray of rainbow light followed closely behind him as though able to teleport through s.p.a.ce.
Mi s.h.i.+ could feel a power from the rainbow light that made his hair stand up on end.
That power was too strong.
âItâs finally here? I have been waiting for it for a long time. I want to see whether your rainbow sword light that can sever the world cut through my indestructible stone body!â
Mi s.h.i.+ wasnât in the least afraid, and instead, his eyes blazed brightly. He unleashed a long roar as a light ray shot out from his Sacred Pupil. It rapidly spread out like water and completely enveloped his body.
âSacred Pupil, Indestructible Stone Body!â
Mi s.h.i.+âs body suddenly underwent drastic changes. It rapidly swelled and he grew to more than ten-feet tall. His flesh color faded and was replaced by a rich grey-white. Within seconds, he had transformed into an ancient mottled stone man that seemed to have survived countless years.
Roar!
The ancient stone giant emitted a low roar from his throat, and immediately crossed his stone arms in front of his chest, like a mottled stone s.h.i.+eld.
Shua!
The s.p.a.ce in front of him suddenly shattered as a ray of rainbow light shot through.
The ray of rainbow light slashed its stone arms.
The world seemed to still at that moment.
Clang!
An earth shattering noise resounded throughout the world and thousand-feet shock waves swept out. The ground crumbled as countless deep cracks were torn into it. The people in the surroundings who couldnât evade in time were blasted into the distance vomiting blood and were left with multiple wounds across their bodies.
At the source of the collision, where Zhou Yuan and Mi s.h.i.+ were, a bottomless pit had formed. The pit was dark but its edges were smooth as a mirror like tofu that had been sliced by an incomparably sharp blade.
Horror filled countless eyes.
Even the top experts from both sides were palpitating from the terrifying clash.
It was unknown who was superior in that confrontation?
Under countless intent gazes, the Genesis Qi at the source faded and everyone saw an ancient stone man standing quietly with his arms folded in front of him.
âIt withstood that attack?â
Amidst puzzled voices, the ancient stone giantâs arms crackled as cracks spread across half its body and rocks tumbled down âŚ
Bang!
The stone giantâs upper body shattered apart, revealing Mi s.h.i.+âs face. He was covered in bloodstains, which made him look like broken porcelain.
Pff.
He spurted out a jet of blood, staring at Zhou Yuan. "What a domineering Saint Genesis Art...it can even destroy my indestructible stone bodyâŚ"
âBut unfortunately for youâŚI withstood it!â
Mi s.h.i.+ threw his head back and laughed wildly. Although the rainbow light had struck him, he survived in the end. Clearly, his indestructible stone body didnât need to fear the ray of rainbow light too much.
"Hahaha, Zhou Yuan, the power of a Saint Genesis Art is no doubt powerful, but given your foundation, it must have exhausted all your power. What else do you have to play with me?!â
Mi s.h.i.+âs wild laughter echoed across the battlefield, making everyone from the three great heavens turn ashen and look uneasy.
Ai Qing also sighed, shaking her head. Just as she thought, Zhou Yuan's risk-taking didnât achieve the desired outcome.
The situation would turn even trickier after this.
While Mi s.h.i.+ roared with laughter, the silver armor on Zhou Yuan's body suddenly dimmed and then quickly turned into silver liquid and flowed away.
Zhou Yuan calmly glanced at his silver armor that was fading, then at Mi s.h.i.+, who was laughing wildly, and a strange smile curved the corners of his mouth.
Shua!
He sped out.
âYou want to die!?â A ruthless smile came to Mi s.h.i.+âs face when he saw that Zhou Yuan dared to charge forward.
But just as the smile bloomed on his face, he saw rainbow lights flas.h.i.+ng in Zhou Yuan's eyes. Then, another incomparably terrifying wave erupted from Zhou Yuan's body.
A ray of rainbow light shot up from the top of Zhou Yuan's skull and then slashed down at Mi s.h.i.+ like a lightning bolt.
Mi s.h.i.+ stood dumbstruck, and an intense fear filled his eyes. Then, he twisted around without any hesitation and fled. At the same time he roared inwardly, âHis mother! How is it possibleâŚhow could he have another rainbow sword light?!â
