Yuan's Ascension

Chapter 639: Sweep, Number One In Huanggu (2)

Boom! The sphere of light suddenly moved, its speed instantly skyrocketing to an inconceivable level as it hurtled forth.

100,000 li per second! 300,000 li per second! 500,000 li per second!

Almost instantaneously, the sphere's velocity reached the speed of light, shooting towards the general direction Imperial Majesty Da Yan pointed at.

Hum~ A powerful wave of Soul Will suddenly spread out—it was Imperial Majesty Lei Fu's Soul Will.

This was the first time he had revealed and extended it. While it instantly exposed his presence, it also allowed him to pinpoint the exact location of Wu Yuan, Eldritch Deity Hou Tu, and the others.

It was like a massive light bulb suddenly illuminating the surroundings, revealing everything in its radius while also exposing itself.

However, at this point, Imperial Majesty Lei Fu no longer cared whether he was exposed or not.

"Detonate!" Imperial Majesty Lei Fu's eyes narrowed slightly. The sphere of light, traveling at the speed of light, was now about a hundred thousand li from Wu Yuan’s group.

Rumble! Like a miniature sun exploding, each lightning spark within the orb erupted with a heaven-defying burst of energy. When they converged, the power instantly reached a terrifying intensity! It was undoubtedly an arcane arts explosion nearing the Archimmortal level.

Boom! Shockwaves instantly spread outward in all directions. The most violent shockwave headed straight for where Wu Yuan, Eldritch Deity Hou Tu and the others were located.

"Go."

"Kill!"

The instant the light sphere detonated, Imperial Majesty Lei Fu, Imperial Majesty Nan You, Heavenly Master Lei Guang, and Heavenly Master Jiu Zhu charged out like four bolts of lightning.

This was a common tactic qi refiners employed – launching a surprise attack with powerful arcane arts, then engaging in battle.

...

On an unremarkable mountain peak, Wu Yuan sat in lotus position on a giant boulder, with Eldritch Deity Hou Tu, High Eldritch Hou Zhi, and Hou Tong not far away. All four were cultivating quietly.

The cycle of life, vitality... Wu Yuan calmly contemplated the Law of Life, numerous Dao insights surging into his mind.

Hum~ Wu Yuan abruptly detected a faint spatial fluctuation. His eyes snapped open, zeroing in on a point far in the distance.

Whoosh~ The distorted spatial fluctuations turned perfectly clear in his "sight". Everything was revealed with crystal clarity!

Several figures stood in the air millions of li away, each emanating raging battle intent. At the same time, an orb of light containing terrifying power was hurtling towards them at frightening speed.

Imperial Majesties of the immortal race? Three Imperial Majesties attacking together? An assassination attempt? Wu Yuan instantly understood what was going on.

However, everything happened too quickly for him to notify Eldritch Deity Hou Tu and the others. With just a thought, the surrounding space began to warp strangely, as if folding in on itself.

Whoosh~ At that moment, the power contained in that orb of light fully erupted, like terrifying electric serpents striking out in all directions. They caused the sky and land to quake, even space itself trembled faintly.

The might of an Archimmortal-level attack could transcend spatial dimensions.

It was also extremely fast. Separated by only a hundred thousand li, those terrifying electric serpents moving at the speed of light would sweep over in just one-sixth of a second.

Hmm? Eldritch Deity Hou Tu noticed the attack first. Though he only had the ether of a First Tribulation High Eldritch, as an existence who had fully comprehended a Dao, his perception was still extremely keen. He could even perceive higher spatial dimensions with his Soul Will.

His pupils constricted slightly.

Boom! His body instantly began to expand rapidly as a hazy earthy-yellow light appeared, covering an area of ten thousand li.

"Not good." High Eldritch Hou Zhi's reaction was slower. He could only watch helplessly as the lightning approached, knowing he would be unable to react in time.

Last was Eldritch General Hou Tong. A flash of fear passed through her eyes - an instinctive reaction. Her Soul Will unconsciously spread out, her gaze sweeping the distance, seeing only a flash of white lightning filling the sky.

An inescapable feeling of her imminent demise consumed her, leaving her trembling like a leaf.

Am I going to die? This was Hou Tong's only thought. The terrifying pressure and the weakness of her soul caused her to despair instinctively. She was utterly powerless to resist.

Just at this critical moment, a towering thousand-zhang tall figure appeared in front of Hou Tong. Two massive wings extended like two enormous shields, wrapping around her.

Is it Hou Feng? A thought flashed through Hou Tong's mind.

Boom! Wu Yuan, who reacted even faster than Eldritch Deity Hou Tu, had already fully activated his three Archeldritch Divine Artifacts. His vital aura instantly soared to unprecedented levels, surging endlessly.

That lightning seemed swift, but Wu Yuan's reaction speed was even swifter. Warping space, activating the Archeldritch Divine Artifacts, employing ether arts, Beast Fusion... multiple techniques erupted almost simultaneously.

Boom! The lightning struck the ground, engulfing everything in hundreds of thousands of li. The entire world was overturned, as if transformed into a terrifying sea of lightning. Mountains and rivers shattered, as though the end of the world had come.

However, when that incomparably terrifying lightning was a thousand li from Wu Yuan, it seemed to hit an invisible barrier, its speed and power diminishing rapidly.

"Suppress!" Wu Yuan's gaze was ice-cold. An invisible yet powerful Dao fluctuation descended, emanating a hazy green light that contained unfathomable might. It collided head-on with the oncoming lightning.

Life True Intent! As the True Intent of a Greater Law, its Dao power alone was easily able to suppress ordinary Earth Immortals.

Rumble~ Under the dual weakening effects of the warped space and Life True Intent, the power of the seemingly fierce lightning was instantly reduced by more than half.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Two terrifying blade rays sliced through space, annihilating streaks of lightning along the way, eliminating the attack’s remaining power.

In the air, Wu Yuan’s emanating overwhelming might as he held two sabers, his wings enveloping Eldritch General Hou Tong.

Everything settled.

"Eldritch Deity Hou Feng."

"Hou Feng, so powerful." Eldritch Deity Hou Tu and High Eldritch Hou Zhi looked at Wu Yuan in shock. This attack wouldn't have killed them, but they couldn’t say it posed no threat at all.

However, Wu Yuan's reaction speed was simply too fast. So fast that this attack, nearly at the Archimmortal level, had no effect whatsoever.

He’s stronger than me. Eldritch Deity Hou Tu was both shocked and delighted. From the two saber strikes Wu Yuan had unleashed alone, he understood that Wu Yuan had now surpassed him in strength.

One had to understand that just over a hundred years ago during the battle of the Earth Archeldritch Tribe, Wu Yuan's strength could only be said to barely reach the Eldritch Deity level. He wasn't even a match for Hou Tu then. But now, he had clearly surpassed him. Truly, a monstrous prodigy couldn't be measured by common sense.

"It's Imperial Majesty Lei Fu and Imperial Majesty Nan You, along with two Heavenly Masters. It seems the immortal race couldn't sit still any longer." Eldritch Deity Hou Tu's voice simultaneously echoed in Wu Yuan and High Eldritch Hou Zhi's minds, filled with wariness.

"How did they know our whereabouts?" High Eldritch Hou Zhi was shocked.

"It must be an ability of the Mirror of Creation." Eldritch Deity Hou Tu said. After the last assassination attempt, the eldritch race had made further deductions about the Mirror of Creation’s functions.

"They dare make a second attempt? I'll send a message to Eldritch Deity Zhu Jiu and the others right now, telling them to launch another attack on Heavenly Pillar Mountain." High Eldritch Hou Zhi growled. "With Eldritch Deity Hou Feng's strength, the few of them won't be able to kill us."

"Don't rush. Imperial Majesty Da Yan is still at Heavenly Pillar Mountain." Eldritch Deity Hou Tu said.

"It’s not just two Imperial Majesties. The three of them are all here. However, that Imperial Majesty Da Yan still seems to think he can conceal his aura from me," Wu Yuan said calmly. "Send a message to Eldritch Deity Zhu Jiu. Today is the day we erase the foundation of the Immortal Court.

With three Imperial Majesties here together, the immortal race has no chance of defending Heavenly Pillar Mountain."

Imperial Majesty Da Yan came too? Eldritch Deity Hou Tu was shocked. He prided himself on his strong perceptive abilities, yet he hadn't sensed anything at all. Wu Yuan could actually detect him?

"Eldritch Deity Hou Tu, protect Hou Tong well. Leave the rest to me." Wu Yuan's voice was indifferent.

Eldritch Deity Hou Tu and High Eldritch Hou Zhi were both stunned. That meant Wu Yuan planned to face them alone?

Whoosh! Before they could clarify, Wu Yuan threw the dazed Hou Tong to Eldritch Deity Hou Tu, who instantly shielded her with his massive body.

Boom! At the same time, Wu Yuan's wings spread wide, his towering thousand-zhang body looking like an enormous butterfly.

In just a few flashes, he crossed hundreds of thousands of li.

The three Imperial Majesties are here together? If you had stayed obediently at Heavenly Pillar Mountain, I wouldn't have been able to do anything to you for a while. I would’ve had to wait until I reached the Earth Eldritch phase to stand a chance of winning. But you just had to come here to attack me? Wu Yuan's gaze was ice-cold.

Boom! Wu Yuan alone charged toward the four mighty powerhouses – Imperial Majesty Nan You, Imperial Majesty Lei Fu, Heavenly Master Lei Guang, and Heavenly Master Jiu Zhu.
