Free Web NovelChapter 1771: Chapter 1638: The Old Bastard’s Magnificence
"The era has changed..."
A Quasi-Emperor of the Demon Clan muttered to himself, feeling waves of shock surge in his heart.
Before Taigu, it was the prime of the Demon Clan.
Back then, the Demon Clan was the absolute protagonist of this world, with one Demon Emperor after another being invincible in their times, firmly suppressing the humans.
After Taigu, the protagonists of the world changed; only one Demon Emperor appeared from the Demon Clan, while humans had more than one Great Emperor.
Nevertheless, the number of Quasi-Emperors in the Demon Clan was never less than that of the Human Race, perhaps even more.
Because most holy lands of the Demon Clan were forcefully carved out from the great world by Ancient Demon Emperors, the rules of heaven and earth did not change much!
This means their proving Dao environment is completely different from the Human Race, making it much easier for them compared to humans, naturally, under the same realm, their combat power is not as strong as the Human Quasi-Emperors.
Although Human Quasi-Emperors are extremely rare, once one emerges, they are astonishingly talented, causing fear in the Demon Clan’s hearts.
"I want to experience the ultimate skills of your Human Race, and see what progress you’ve made over the years!"
Jin Dapeng shouted, and directly attacked.
Behind him grew two pairs of Divine Wings, and as the four wings flapped, they immediately**** launched Heavenly Swords, densely packed Tao Patterns covered the Heavenly Swords and they split down.
This was formed by Infinite Tao Patterns, his strongest strike, in a battle between Quasi-Emperors, sometimes one strike could decide victory or defeat, life or death.
Swoosh!
The Old Bastard waved his hand, and the Tao Patterns instantly condensed into a giant palm, grabbing all the Heavenly Swords in his hand and directly obliterating them.
This scene made the Demon Clan’s strong people terrified, each one as silent as a cicada in winter, although they didn’t experience it firsthand, through the fluctuations transmitted by the Treasure Mirror they could clearly sense the power of Jin Dapeng’s strike.
Yet—
This strongest strike was actually caught bare-handed, could this Human Quasi-Emperor named Yao Guangyu really be so powerful?
"I don’t believe it, we are both in the Quasi-Emperor realm, you can’t be stronger than me!"
Jin Dapeng looked incredulously at the Old Bastard’s hand.
His strongest blow was actually caught bare-handed by someone, this outcome was unacceptable to him.
"Buzz!"
Jin Dapeng’s eyes emitted destructive light, his left eye flew out a dark sun, his right eye flew out a silver moon, sun and moon emerged together, turning into a grinding disk, and launched an attack towards the Old Bastard.
Jin Dapeng was desperate; this was his ultimate move, competing with the universe for its creation, competing with the sun and moon for brilliance, advancing harmony and killing simultaneously.
Boom!!
The void collapsed, the aura of destruction surging across the entire outer battlefield, as if the world was about to be destroyed.
Through the images transmitted back via the Eagle Eye Platform and Treasure Mirror, everyone still felt immense pressure, as if the sky was about to collapse.
The people on the ground far below also felt this terrifying pressure, it was conceivable how much pressure the Old Bastard was now enduring.
At this moment, everyone’s hearts were in their throats, silently praying for the Old Bastard to win the battle.
High above in the sky, in the outer battlefield, the Old Bastard appeared solemn and dignified, with hands moving as if time stood still, his gaze firm, unmoved by the frightening aura of destruction, drawing the trajectory of Dao.
"This is..."
Ye Fan with the Martial Arts Heavenly Eye faintly saw the actions of the Old Bastard, his heart moved.
The Old Bastard’s techniques were closely linked to the Immortal Stele Scattering Hand, seemingly connected or disconnected, no one knew what terrifying attack might finally be unleashed.
Ye Fan was very clear about the characteristics of the Immortal Stele Scattering Hand, which seemed endless, its power increasing as the user’s cultivation improved.
If a Quasi-Emperor used the Immortal Stele Scattering Hand, how terrifying would the attack power be?
Ye Fan couldn’t even imagine it, attentively watching the Old Bastard’s techniques.
Gradually, he realized this wasn’t entirely the Immortal Stele Scattering Hand, there were still significant differences from his Immortal Stele Scattering Hand.
If Ye Fan himself used it, the Immortal Stele Scattering Hand only required one palm strike, with divine power operating along a specific route, while the Old Bastard’s method involved transforming some divine power routes into Dharma Seals.
Boom!
The void shattered, a giant Heavenly Stele suddenly manifested, ancient and enduring, emitting endless pressure.
The massive stele filled the sky, carved with sun, moon, stars, birds and beasts, even a strike from the Ancient Times Human Race.
It could be said, this massive Heavenly Stele nearly depicted a complete cosmic sky, vast heavenly might suppressing the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Boom!!
The Heavenly Stele**** released Infinite Holy Light, emitting a resounding grandeur, suppressed down, unstoppable, directly shattering the black sun and silver moon birthed from Jin Dapeng’s eyes.
"Ah..."
Jin Dapeng let out an earth-shattering scream, his eyes bleeding, his body violently trembling, bending under the Heavenly Stele’s pressure, about to kneel to the ground.
"What kind of Miao Technique is this, with such might?"
The Demon Clan were horrified; Jin Dapeng’s Sun and Moon Life and Death Disk was his strongest innate divine skill, his eyes turning into a World Grinding disk, capable of definitely defeating Quasi-Emperors of the same realm.
However, under the Old Bastard’s Heavenly Stele, it couldn’t even withstand one move before being shattered, what was this concept?
"Bravo!"
"We’re going to win!!"
On the contrary, the Human Race erupted in waves of cheers like a tsunami, the Old Bastard was too dominant, almost completely crushing the opponent.
Above the firmament, the Heavenly Stele transformed into an eternal one, emitting infinite Mystic Light, surrounded by Chaotic Energy, with endless celestial rules, and the great Dao’s rumbling was incessant.
Jin Dapeng’s eyes widened, his face flushed red, a strong Divine Radiance erupted from his body, yet he couldn’t withstand the pressure of the Heavenly Stele, begrudgingly bending his waist and kneeling, every bone within him creaking, on the verge of exploding.
The Outer Battlefield was filled with light, celestial Tao Patterns crossed, interwoven into a celestial net, firmly suppressing Jin Dapeng below.
"Ah..."
Jin Dapeng suddenly spat a mouthful of fresh blood, shouting as he manifested his true form, a giant Peng Bird like a mountain, akin to a star, his whole body radiating ten thousand golden rays.
However, even manifesting his true form was in vain; under the suppression of the Heavenly Stele, nothing could escape.
Jin Dapeng charged with all his might, spreading his wings over ninety thousand miles, yet was firmly suppressed below by the Heavenly Stele, unable to break free no matter how he struggled.
Crackle and pop!
Not only could he not escape, but with the Heavenly Stele slowly descending, the pressure he faced grew greater, his whole body’s bones exploding, nearly being crushed.
In such a situation, not bowing down meant sure death, even born with pride, Jin Dapeng was nearly unable to hold on, blood spouting from every pore, looking especially miserable.
Jin Dapeng, although the newly broken Quasi-Emperor, hadn’t traveled far down this path, but his strength was incredibly powerful, especially after manifesting his true form, yet he still struggled to endure.
The Heavenly Stele seemed like another world, containing the mighty power of the world, beyond human ability to resist, even Quasi-Emperor couldn’t.
"Get up!"
Jin Dapeng roared, his voice vibrating through the Nine Heavens, shaking the sky of this land, transmitting tens of thousands of miles, trembling the celestial rules.
At this moment, the Heavenly Stele actually began to fade, shaking violently, showing signs of being unable to suppress him.
"Hang in there, persistence is victory, the Human Clan’s Old Bastard is almost not holding on, you must hang in there!"
The Demon Clan leader Quasi-Emperor Chi Lin shouted loudly, cheering on Jin Dapeng.
Meanwhile, all Human cultivators were nervous, secretly praying that Old Bastard could overpower his opponent, earning this critical victory for the Human Race.
Now in the Quasi-Emperor realm competition, the Human Race and Demon Clan were tied one-one, the Human Race desperately needed this victory!
If Old Bastard fell short, the Human Race would lose the competition at the highest combat power!
This would have a huge impact on future competitions, even decisively!
At this moment, all Human cultivators pinned their hopes on Old Bastard, wishing he could overpower his opponent, gaining a glimmer of hope for the Human Race’s future.
"Suppress!"
In the midst of people’s prayers and hopes, Old Bastard shouted, his voice shaking the universe, casting mystic light from his hands, merging into the Heavenly Stele, making it solidify again.
Soon, Old Bastard’s figure flashed, descending from the sky, erupting with light brighter than the sun, one foot stepping on the Heavenly Stele.
This is an eternal image, unforgettable through the years—Immortal Academy Director Old Bastard stepping on the Heavenly Stele, suppressing the Demon Clan Quasi-Emperor so they can’t lift their heads!
"I’m unwilling!"
Jin Dapeng spat blood, his bones crackling, almost crushed, even his Divine Soul couldn’t withstand such terrifying pressure, unable to escape from below the Heavenly Stele.
With just his strength, suppressing the Demon Clan Quasi-Emperor of the same realm, Old Bastard showed invincible posture, breaking through the Emperor Barrier under the current circumstances, proving Dao Quasi-Emperor, his combat power crushing Quasi-Emperors of the same realm.
This eternal image, no matter how many years pass, remains etched in the hearts of people, unerasable.
Both the Human Race and Demon Clan were deeply shaken by Old Bastard’s invincible posture.
"Ah..."
Jin Dapeng was about to be defeated, unable to withstand such pressure, roaring to the sky, blood flying everywhere, even his Divine Soul was about to be obliterated.
However—
At this moment, Old Bastard suddenly smiled brightly, withdrawn his supreme power, dissolving the Heavenly Stele, restraining all energy.
His clothes fluttered, standing alone in the Outer Battlefield’s void, behind him the endless stars of the universe, making him look like a deity, akin to a Banished Immortal!
Everyone knew that he was more than capable of easily annihilating Jin Dapeng, yet he didn’t do so, nor did he make him truly bow down.
The world fell silent, no one expected Old Bastard, in the end, chose to withdraw, defeating his opponent with invincible posture, yet refrained from doing so.
"The Human Race... truly has great courage!"
Chi Lin was stunned for a long time, finally sighing softly.
This battle, Old Bastard not only showcased invincible combat power of the same realm, telling the Demon Clan that Human strong people could completely crush Demon Clan, but also demonstrated great courage—the Human Race wasn’t afraid to wage war, merely considering the alliance and greater picture!
Other Demon Clan, especially the belligerent Demon Clan Imperial Family, blushed red, bowing their heads in shame.
They had committed heinous crimes against the Human Race and Xuanwu State, yet the Human Race reciprocated grievances with kindness, choosing to withdraw when capable of slaying their Quasi-Emperor.
In comparison, they felt they had gone too far.
"Why didn’t you kill me?"
Even Jin Dapeng couldn’t believe Old Bastard would so easily let him go.
After all, between the Human Race and Demon Clan was not private enmity, but racial hatred, fully in his favor, knowing well Old Bastard had the ability to let his blood stain the Outer Battlefield, falling here.
"Revenge breeds revenge endlessly; we were once allies fighting side by side. Our Human Race is willing to live peacefully with your Demon Clan, developing together, it depends on your attitude!" Old Bastard replied.
Upon hearing these words, Jin Dapeng’s whole body shook, silent for a long time, then lifted his head, bowed deeply to Old Bastard: "I’m convinced, wholeheartedly, from today on, no matter others’ attitude, my Golden Peng clan, willing to continue being allies with the Human Race!"
