Chapter 804: Chapter 802: Found a Treasure

Xu Yang’s mastery over the Wind Meteor Immortal Expanse had now reached near perfection. Bolstered by his killing intent, its full-force eruption was utterly astounding. Although it wasn’t as terrifying as activating the Wind Source of the Daluo Saber, using the latter would drain all of his energy. With his current strength, even facing the combined assault of eight people, the might of the Wind Meteor Immortal Expanse was enough to parry sixty to seventy percent of their attacks, even if it couldn’t block them entirely.

RUMBLE!

Saber intent and saber qi intertwined, forming a boundless storm that wreaked havoc. In an instant, all eight of them were blocked.

CLANG!

CLANK CLANK CLANK!

"What a terrifying storm!"

"Damn it, he actually blocked us!"

"Quick, don’t hold back! Don’t give him a single moment to breathe!" someone roared.

"Too late," Xu Yang sneered.

In a battle between experts at the Peak of Celestial Immortal, a split second was enough to execute a myriad of moves. The moment the Canglan Blade Waterfall—conjured by the Wind Meteor Immortal Expanse—blocked the eight cultivators, he made his move.

His immortal essence remained boundless and robust. Erupting with his Heaven Locking intent, Xu Yang drove back his nearest opponent with a single slash. Becoming one with his saber, he charged fiercely like a wild beast, defeating three people in the blink of an eye.

Outside the arena, dead silence had fallen.

The spectators were so shocked they couldn’t even speak, as if they were witnessing a miracle. The saber-wielding figure stood like an unrivaled War God, displaying peerless ferocity.

"Damn it! Attack together!" a man roared, frantically erupting with power.

For ten of them to join forces and lose five members right off the bat was an absolute humiliation.

SWISH SWISH SWISH!

The final five threw caution to the wind and completely surrounded him. Divine Techniques erupted, and Divine Weapons flashed with a biting chill as they attacked Xu Yang without holding anything back.

Xu Yang’s expression remained unchanged. He met his enemies with his saber, weaving an airtight net of blade light.

WHOOSH!

His body shuddered, and he was finally forced back.

The five were overjoyed.

"He’s reached his limit!"

"Hahaha!"

"Let’s finish him off in one fell swoop!"

"My limit?" Xu Yang licked his lips, a wicked smile spreading across his face as he suddenly shook his immortal foundation.

BOOM!

Boundless immortal essence surged from his body. The four sections of the Daluo Saber unleashed a resonant clang, and pitch-black flames suddenly swept across the plaza.

WHOOSH!

The black fire rolled and churned, surging toward the five like roaring dragons and fierce tigers to devour them. The moment the Heaven-Burning Divine Fire appeared, the five felt their hearts palpitate with fear. This fire possessed extreme corrosive properties.

"It can actually refine immortal essence! Be careful!"

BOOM!

The five combined their strength to shatter the tide of flames, tearing right through it.

"Where is he?"

Bizarrely, Xu Yang had completely vanished from their sight and perception.

Liou Sanqian’s eyes widened. Even with his cultivation as a Golden Immortal, he felt incredibly shocked.

Xu Yang hadn’t disappeared; instead, he had merged into the bizarre black flames. However, through some unknown method, he had concealed himself so flawlessly that the five opponents couldn’t sense him at all.

Liou Sanqian’s heart tightened, and he instinctively suppressed the urge to shout a warning.

It seemed like there really was a chance to win.

"Look out!" one of them suddenly paled, the hairs on his body standing on end as a massive sense of danger washed over him. Without hesitation, he roared, twisting his body to swing his staff down.

CLANG!

A torrential force surged forth, numbing the webbing between his thumb and index finger and forcing him to stumble backward uncontrollably.

"How can he possibly have so much strength left?" The amount of immortal essence Xu Yang had consumed parrying the combined attacks of ten people was simply immeasurable. Even with a Ninth Grade immortal foundation, how could he still possess such boundless immortal essence?

CLANG CLANG CLANG!

Xu Yang swung his saber in a rapid succession of slashes. The ferocious power behind the strikes caused the man to cough up blood and fall to the ground in a sorry state.

The other four finally snapped out of their daze and lunged forward madly.

"It’s time to end this battle!"

"We absolutely won’t let you defeat another one of us!"

On the surface, even four of them held an absolute advantage against Xu Yang. Regardless of the outcome, pushing the battle to this point had already left the crowd shocked beyond words. Even if he lost now, he had every right to be proud.

But naturally, Xu Yang wasn’t going to give up.

"End it? You’re speaking too soon," Xu Yang said, vibrating the four sections of the Daluo Saber. He leapt straight up into the air, unleashing an unbroken stream of blade light that rained down on the four like a torrential storm.

The four charged forward fearlessly. Sabers and swords flashed, creating earth-shattering phenomena as they all fought with their lives on the line. As trial opponents chosen for a Dragon Tiger Venerable, they absolutely could not hold back. They had to treat this as a life-or-death struggle. Losing here would be a crushing humiliation.

This time, Xu Yang neither retreated nor dodged. Relying on his powerful perception, reaction speed, and his boundless Immortal Yuan Foundation, he met the four head-on. Growing stronger with every clash, his aura soared to the heavens, making him look like a true War God.

The four opponents, however, were horrified. Their immortal essence was on the verge of running dry, yet Xu Yang showed no signs of bottoming out.

Fighting against ten people meant Xu Yang’s immortal essence consumption had to be at least six or seven times theirs. The fact that he was still this robust was simply unfathomable.

"Heaven Locking intent."

Countless illusory chains materialized out of thin air, densely enveloping the four.

But they were already on guard.

"You still want to use this trick? Break for me!"

Xu Yang grinned. "You fell for it."

While his Heaven Locking intent was strong, locking down four people at once was quite difficult. However, his true goal was merely to distract them.

In the instant the four struggled to tear apart the Heaven Locking intent, Xu Yang’s body expanded. Immortal essence erupted from him, kicking up sky-high waves like a surging river, causing the onlookers to gasp in astonishment. Judging by his stance, anyone would think he had just stepped onto the battlefield rather than having fought a combined assault of ten people for half the day.

"Is the immortal essence of a Ninth Grade immortal foundation really this terrifying?"

"This is even more astonishing than seven or eight experts at the Peak of Celestial Immortal combined. When facing a strong enemy, as long as he isn’t instantly suppressed, he can wear them down until their scalps tingle with despair."

"What is he doing? Facing all four at once?"

Xu Yang’s actions suddenly left many confused. His advantage clearly didn’t lie in this type of confrontation. Even Liou Sanqian was taken aback.

Xu Yang dove straight at the four, his target shockingly not being just a single individual.

As he closed the distance, the four violently broke free from their restraints. Their attacks coalesced in an instant and shot straight toward him.

Xu Yang pushed his physical body and immortal foundation to their absolute limits. This was the first time he had ever fought so fiercely.

"Come out," he murmured in his heart.

At the very instant they collided, boundless ancient Evil Qi spewed forth like a geyser.

BOOM!

In a trance-like daze, it felt as if thousands upon thousands of ancient wills were roaring and howling, viciously slamming into the four’s Primordial Spirits. Caught completely off guard, the four let out simultaneous muffled groans.

RUMBLE!

As the five collided, Xu Yang’s entire body trembled, but he stabilized himself in a flash. Enveloped in Evil Qi Immortal Essence, he swept his sleeve and drove one person back with a single slash.

Immediately after, moving as fast as lightning and striking like thunder, he unleashed one slash, two slashes, three slashes at the second person... leaving him no room to breathe. By the fourth slash, the opponent let out a cry of pain as his Divine Weapon slipped from his grasp and fell to the ground.

Without even a glance, Xu Yang abruptly shifted his posture to confront the final two.

The two instinctively swallowed hard, their faces turning pale. By now, the feeling in their hearts was no longer shock, but terror and a spine-tingling dread. The opponent standing before them simply wasn’t human.

"I don’t believe you have any strength left!" one of them gritted his teeth, brandishing his sword. However, his aura was already several degrees weaker than when the fight began. The same was true for the other.

"As you wish!" Xu Yang smiled faintly. The life essence accumulated within the Celestial Refining Divine Tripod instantly flooded his hollowed-out immortal foundation.

In truth, after such consecutive bursts of power, even with a twelfth-grade immortal foundation, his immortal essence would have been pushed to its limit. After all, facing ten people meant the energy expenditure for every strike was roughly ten times that of a normal attack. No one could withstand such an unreserved drain and squandering of energy.

But he still had the Celestial Refining Divine Tripod. Many of his other techniques were difficult to utilize right now, but this tripod was the very foundation he had proudly relied upon throughout his cultivation journey.

BOOM!

"Wind Meteor Immortal Expanse!"

It was that exact same move.

The powerful Immortal Technique manifested as a sky-piercing wave of blades. Endless saber qi wreaked havoc and twisted, transforming into an all-encompassing, biting storm that hadn’t weakened in the slightest compared to when he first used it.

"It’s that move again..."

"Heavens, how is he still in peak condition at a time like this?"

"Just how much immortal essence does he have?"

The crowd was completely numb. The shock was simply too much to bear.

CLANG!

The storm directly swallowed the final two men.

The moment they saw the attack, the two were dumbfounded. Then, bitter smiles filled their faces as their will to fight was ruthlessly torn to shreds, crumbling entirely.

From beginning to end, Xu Yang had never used any excessively flashy Divine Techniques. Using only his massive foundation, his astonishing immortal essence, and strike after continuous strike, he forcefully defeated ten people relying purely on absolute strength and endurance.

And those were ten mighty experts at the Peak of Celestial Immortal!

When the battle concluded and the dust settled, the ten people were either lying down or hunched over, all panting heavily with blood trickling from the corners of their mouths. Their faces were deathly pale, and their auras were weak. It was unimaginable that a ten-versus-one battle would end in such a scene.

In contrast, aside from looking slightly fatigued, Xu Yang’s aura remained at its peak.

The entire venue was completely silent, deathly still.

Liou Sanqian trembled with excitement, a blazing fire burning in his eyes.

"I’ve struck gold. I’ve struck gold!" he murmured to himself. "Tower Lord, you need to come back quickly."
