UNSTOPPABLE MARTIAL ARTS: STARTING FROM ATTRIBUTE POINTS ALLOCATION
Chapter 897: Chapter 437: Battle Atop the Goddess Peak_2Chapter 897: Chapter 437: Battle Atop the Goddess Peak_2
“I can only try my best.”
For Lu Yun, using Seventh Grade Divine Power at this moment was extremely draining. His limit was to execute it twice, but the initial battle with Dugu Jue had already consumed some of his strength.
As soon as he finished speaking, he crossed tens of yards in a single step, instantly charging forward.
In a flash, he was utterly transformed, like a brilliant streak of a meteor, clearing the air and manifesting dazzling light that stunned the hearts of onlookers.
At the same time, layers of mysterious symbols flashed, branding upon his body. Starlight shimmered like purple divine light enveloping him, making him seem transcendent and saintly.
He interchanged hand seals, employing another method of unleashing the Seventh Grade Divine Power he had used earlier. Constellations of massive star spheres coalesced, formed by runes, exuding both mystery and gravity.
...Boom!
He too seemed to turn into a colossal star sphere, dominating Dugu Jue from the center.
A vast net composed of stars, with Talisman Restrictions densely packed, radiated the most splendid light.
Dugu Jue was fearless, regarding the terrifying starry net as if it were nothing, his saber light striking like thunder, continuously slashing down.
As previously stated, he wanted to wait for Ye Xingchen and Xiao Yun to employ all their methods before crushing them with his overwhelming force.
Therefore, he did not resort to using his powerful divine abilities.
“Hurry, I can’t hold on much longer.” Ye Xingchen’s face was ashen with near exhaustion. Utilizing this divine power was still too forced for him.
Xiao Yun was silent. His palms and fingers shone with light, erupting with an astonishing brilliance. When directed at Dugu Jue, it was like a fiercely burning sun, emitting terrifying brightness and unbearably dazzling to behold.
Boom!
Amidst a loud explosion, Dugu Jue’s protective barrier collapsed, instantly enveloped by powerful flames.
“Did it work this time?”
Sweat beaded Xiao Yun’s forehead as he murmured to himself.
What he had just unleashed was not an ordinary divine power, but a Seventh Grade, having reached Perfection.
Initially, he had no intention of revealing this trump card, but the strength displayed by Dugu Jue was too extraordinary.
“It’s actually a perfected Seventh Grade Divine Power.”
Zhang Zhongyuan, who was watching the battle, identified the source of that fire with a single remark.
Instantly, the surrounding crowd erupted into an uproar.
Hu Mengqing, Gao Yingqian, Qin Yi, and others looked despondent. They were once renowned alongside Xiao Yun, Ye Xingchen, and Dugu Jue on the wilderness continent, but now they had been far outstripped.
Of course, those who felt the greatest impact were the likes of Deng Wuqing and other Martial Academy’s Saint Children, especially a few who had once held themselves high, with eyes only for Yuan Yao and Wuchen, looking down on the many Heavenly Prides with an arrogant stance.
But now, Dugu Jue had reached the fourth level of the Heavenly Human Realm, and Xiao Yun and Ye Xingchen were also on the verge of breakthrough, with each having mastered a Seventh Grade Divine Ability to accompany them.
Just then, from the endless Sea of Fire, saber light surged like the Milky Way, dividing the Sea of Fire into countless shards.
The potent Saber Intent caused the entire training platform to vibrate, splitting it into numerous cracks, and the Array Prohibition in the sky also showed dense patterns.
The saber force was astonishing. If it weren’t for the strong Array Prohibition, the saber light would have likely torn through it much earlier.
However, the two on the training platform were not so lucky. The powerful Blade Aura swept over like streaming light, its might terrifying.
Ye Xingchen’s expression tightened, and he immediately took out a protective treasure – a palm-sized black bracelet.
It rotated counterclockwise, rapidly enlarging and releasing brilliant starlight, absorbing most of the incoming Blade Aura.
Immediately after, Xiao Yun unleashed his divine ability, blocking the remaining force. Only then were they out of danger.
But before they could rejoice, a streak of light flashed towards them – it was Dugu Jue. He wielded his black Long Blade, striking Ye Xingchen heavily with the flat of the blade.
Already exhausted and driving the black star bracelet forcefully, Ye Xingchen lost all capacity to fight back and was swept off the training platform.
Seizing the moment, Xiao Yun soared high, Blazing Flames spreading from within him seemingly without end. The powerful wave of flames surged heavenward, pressing relentlessly toward Dugu Jue.
Dugu Jue swung his Long Blade, establishing a boundary around himself that the fire couldn’t penetrate in the slightest.
“Hiss!”
The Sea of Fire churned, transforming into hundreds of thousands of Fire Chains, sweeping in from all directions and attempting to bind Dugu Jue.
“Thud!”
With the swing of the Long Blade and the flash of saber light, a rumbling sound erupted, and the Fire Chains were slashed apart one after another.
Immediately afterward, the Saber Intent surged like waves, with Dugu Jue at its center. It spread in all directions, rippling endlessly like the undulations of water.
The vast Sea of Fire and the serpent-like Fire Chains broke apart and were extinguished one by one.
“Saber domain!”
Two voices cried out, almost simultaneously,
One belonged to Deng Wuqing, who also cultivated the way of the saber, and had long reached the state of Perfection with his Saber Intent but had yet to take the final step.
Upon seeing the Saber domain displayed by Dugu Jue, he immediately recognized it.
The other was Zhang Zhongyuan, an elite disciple of the Green Flame Palace, who, with his broad knowledge, recognized it at a glance.
However, upon seeing that even Dugu Jue, who was not even an official disciple, could cultivate a Saber domain, he couldn’t help but be inwardly astounded.
“Kill!”
Xiao Yun was not willing to concede defeat and attempted one final resistance.
Endless flames retreated backward, then condensed into a mass, turning into over a hundred black suns, which, like black holes, pulsated with terrifying power.
Boom!
In an instant, the black hole-like ‘suns’ plummeted down, aiming directly at Dugu Jue.
Whether successful or not, Xiao Yun did not give his opponent any further opportunity; the rest of the hundred black fireballs fell at the same time.
“Boom…boom…boom…”
Accompanied by the terrifying sound of the shockwaves, a dreadful storm was whipped up, billowing across wave after wave. Throughout the sky above the martial training platform, complex and profound Talisman Restrictions flickered.
The ground, cracked like a spider’s web, formed deep pits as endless flames burned and spewed forth.
“Hiss…”
Upon witnessing such a scene, the crowd of spectators couldn’t help but gasp, finding the commotion Xiao Yun stirred up unbelievable.
“Can Dugu Jue withstand it?”
Many people had a bad feeling in their hearts.
“With this level of power, it should not pose much trouble for Dugu Jue.” Deng Wuqing, who had a slight understanding of the Saber domain, clenched his fists and held his breath in concentration.
Even though Xiao Yun displayed extraordinary strength that shocked everyone, Deng still did not view him favorably.
Not to mention that Xiao Yun’s realm was already lower than that of Dugu Jue who possessed the Saber domain; Dugu Jue’s strength had long surpassed the limitations of his current realm.
Saber Intent and Saber domain, although only one word apart, provided an enhancement that was as different as heaven and earth.
Zhang Zhongyuan nodded slightly, undoubtedly agreeing with Deng Wuqing’s previous statement.
Xiao Yun also seemed to realize something was amiss. After all the black fireballs had fallen, he continued to manipulate the power of the Sea of Fire, bombarding tirelessly in Dugu Jue’s original direction, pressuring him without giving any chance for a counterattack.
However, despite his all-out effort and relentless assault, he still failed to achieve his goal.
“Pfft!”
A sound of tearing through the air erupted, and the resplendent Blade Aura pierced through the black Sea of Fire, extinguishing the terrifyingly powerful black fireballs.
Accompanied by the dazzling light, Dugu Jue’s figure burst forth from the Sea of Fire, standing on high ground, his Long Blade flickering with cold light, his Saber domain extending as he looked down at Xiao Yun.
He was dressed in black, slightly disheveled, but completely intact.
In contrast, Xiao Yun’s once white garments were now loose and disordered, with gaps appearing in them, and on his handsome face, there was also a faint trace of blood.
“We’ve lost,” Xiao Yun said with a wry smile. He and Ye Xingchen had joined forces, using all their trump cards, and yet they hadn’t even touched their opponent’s clothes, a blow indeed to him.
“I am merely a step ahead of you, and that’s all there is to it. To catch up to them, there is still a long way to go.”
With that, Dugu Jue sheathed his Long Blade, and the Saber domain was completely retracted. The sky above the martial training platform cleared once more, and the gentle sunlight streamed down, casting long shadows of the two figures.
Hearing this, Xiao Yun’s expression became even more somber as he obviously knew who ‘they’ referred to in Dugu Jue’s words.
Yuan Yao and Wuchen, always aloof and far beyond reach in strength, were still considered Heavenly Prides among the Green Flame Palace’s official disciples.
Not to mention Nangong Xue who had shown terrifying talent, cultivating as easily as drinking water, advancing through realms in succession.
Lu Yun was even more of a given; even a top-tier elite disciple like Zhang Zhongyuan would have to bow down in acknowledgment.
Compared with these individuals, Xiao Yun’s attainment of Perfection in a Seventh Grade Divine Power suddenly seemed insignificant.
