Chapter 672 671: The Sixth Supreme Yang Divine Fire

'Damn it! Damn it all! That bitch actually called that bastard Young Master! As expected, she was sent by Father to follow this kid, and with an Emperor's Weapon! All of it... it should have been mine!'

A savage expression twisted Nangong Xinghui's face.

He looked as if he wanted to skin Yang Xiao alive and swallow him whole.

He had feigned his departure earlier.

But in the end, he had doubled back.

He did it for the Emperor's Weapon in Yang Xiao's hands. Though he knew it would be incredibly difficult, it was an Emperor's Weapon. If he could get his hands on it, it would surely add to his own foundation.

It might even allow him to be completely reborn.

But now!

Yang Xiao wasn't dead.

And the first team of the Seven Evils was completely annihilated. It was infuriating!

"Young Master, Evil One and his men... they just died like that?"

Within the void, the newly appointed Celestial Evil also wore a look of disbelief.

"It's all that bitch's fault! She actually helped that kid use the Taiyin Heaven-Sealing Talisman. Otherwise, how could that bastard possibly have contended with Evil One and his men?"

At this point, Nangong Xinghui's hatred extended even to Yue Lingxi.

He felt that if she hadn't interfered, that bastard would have died at the hands of the Seven Evils long ago. How could the situation have turned out like this?

"So what should we do now? Should we continue...?"

Celestial Evil made a throat-slitting gesture.

Nangong Xinghui glanced at him.

In the end,

He nodded.

"There can be no more mistakes this time. I can give you more time to lie in wait, but the result must be that kid's death. Also, don't let him enter Star Emperor Academy!"

"Yes! Rest assured, Young Master."

Celestial Evil replied.

The Six Evils appeared behind him in unison.

With a flash, their figures

vanished into the void.

Seeing the second team of the Seven Evils depart,

Nangong Xinghui's expression remained cold. He waited until another team of Seven Evils at the Divine Venerable Peak appeared behind him before waving his hand.

The group vanished into the void.

This time,

he truly left.

He badly wanted to stay, but lingering here time and again would inevitably expose his tracks. If that happened, it wouldn't be easy to distance himself from the matter.

In the end,

Nangong Xinghui's only goal was to kill this bastard who could affect his plans.

It was not to expose himself before his increasingly majestic and powerful father.

'I hope this team of the Seven Evils is a bit smarter.'

...

"Y-Young Master, what kind of technique was that?"

Just as Yue Lingxi vanished,

Nangong Xinghui departed,

and the new Seven Evils lay in hiding.

High above Star God Academy, Nangong Tianling finally snapped back to reality.

She looked at Yang Xiao, her face a mask of astonishment.

At first, she had been a little afraid that Yang Xiao would be harmed by the Evil Qi after absorbing it from her, but then she discovered something.

That Evil Qi

seemed to have no effect on Yang Xiao at all.

In fact, it even seemed to be beneficial to him somehow.

"Evil Qi is also a form of energy. As long as you use a special method to contain it, it's perfect for replenishing my Divine General Talisman."

Yang Xiao said faintly.

He knew.

He knew that after he killed a powerhouse comparable to the Divine King Level, Nangong Tianling would inevitably be uneasy, suspicious, and filled with all sorts of emotions. Therefore, to avoid unnecessary trouble,

he revealed a few things to her.

For example, the Divine General Talisman.

Speaking of which,

The power of the Divine General Talisman was finally starting to dwindle. Even though Yang Xiao's strength, with the full support of the talisman, allowed him to fight—and even defeat—an expert on par with a Tier Eight True God, also known as a Titled Divine Venerable.

But the moment he was surrounded and attacked,

it was very likely that his energy would fail, and his enemies would seize the opportunity to kill him.

Therefore,

this thing was only useful against a single opponent.

Unlike one's own cultivation,

which was the true foundation.

A sense of urgency rose in Yang Xiao's heart.

'Looks like I need to find a Supreme Yang Divine Fire as soon as possible. I wonder if one exists on the Star God Continent?'

Yang Xiao was well aware.

His own combat power had already reached a kind of peak.

With his strength at the Peak of Small Divine Power, he could fight against Second and Third Tier True Gods.

Such combat power was already considered the limit of his potential.

Even in his first life, he had only barely reached this level at his absolute peak. To advance further, he had to take another step.

'Right now, my Combat Techniques, Divine Soul, aura, and Secret Techniques have all reached a limit. Improving them further will be difficult. My cultivation, however, is the root of everything, the foundation. I need to accelerate its improvement.'

A thought crossed Yang Xiao's mind.

He looked toward Nangong Tianling.

And at that moment,

Nangong Tianling finally understood the meaning behind his words.

"A Divine General Talisman? Isn't that a legendary supreme talisman treasure? I've heard there are also Divine Venerable Talismans and even Divine King Talismans! For you to have obtained such a treasure, Young Master, is truly a great fortune... Ahem. However, Young Master, this power is ultimately an external force, not your own foundation. The All Heavens Starry Sky Skill I left for you—what level have you cultivated it to?"

Upon hearing Yang Xiao's explanation, Nangong Tianling was first overjoyed.

But in the next instant, she reverted to her previous demeanor.

Her expression grew solemn.

She put on the air of an elder.

Leaving Yang Xiao speechless.

'This woman...'

'She really is something else...'

But Nangong Tianling seemed not to notice.

She continued, "While the Divine General Talisman is good, it is ultimately not your own power. Your own cultivation is your foundation. Moreover, the All Heavens Starry Sky Skill contains the Star Secret Pattern, which is the bedrock of our Star Lineage. You should focus on comprehending it, Young Master. Don't be too hasty. Polish your skills well. For now, you should continue your studies at Star God Academy. With your current cultivation, you can enroll as an ordinary student. After some time, once you become a True God, you can take the entrance exam for Star Emperor Academy. That is where the true chosen of heaven gather. If you can enter, the Young Miss will surely be very pleased."

At this, Nangong Tianling glanced at Yang Xiao.

She said, "I still remember the three-year promise you made, Young Master. A year has already passed. I wonder when you will be able to fight me relying on your own cultivation?"

As she spoke, her eyes held a teasing look. She especially emphasized the words "relying on your own cultivation," clearly provoking Yang Xiao.

Hearing this, Yang Xiao

was truly speechless.

Although his current cultivation was only at the Peak of the Small Divine Power Realm, at the Peak of the Cyan Flame Third Revolution,

with his combat power, forget about a mere Tier One True God like Nangong Tianling—even a Tier Three True God would likely be no match for him.

Yet this woman still dared to use this tactic on him.

It made Yang Xiao's face darken, leaving him at a loss for words.

However, he also knew that Nangong Tianling was right.

His own cultivation was, in the end, still lacking.

If Yue Lingxi hadn't secretly helped him with that last opponent, and if that guy hadn't been so contemptuous, careless, and had an unstable aura, he probably wouldn't have been able to kill him even with the Divine General Talisman.

With the power of his Divine General Talisman, he could at most contend with a Divine Venerable.

Moreover, because the Divine General Talisman's energy was limited, it was only effective against a single person.

If he were to be surrounded,

he would inevitably be defeated once its energy was depleted.

The result of defeat

would likely be death!

'It seems I need to find the sixth type of Supreme Yang Divine Fire. I wonder if there's any on this Star God Continent?'
