Chapter 1219: Chapter 404 He’s Like the Blazing Sun (Added for 16500 Monthly Votes)_3
Zuo Guangshu said that Dou Zhao’s "Seven Forms of Battle" have reached perfection, and the way he utilizes them lies entirely within a focused mind, truly without deception.
This is truly a clash of dragons and tigers, the pinnacle of showdowns!
On the Arena, Dou Zhao unleashes "Divinity Extinguishes" breaking free from captivity, and with a raise of his hand, he slashes through the air!
The first form of battle, Heavenly Punishment!
In the midst of the sky, a crack precisely appears, and the incoming sun just happens to fall into it!
The sun and the crack vanish together.
Falling into the "Sky crack"!
Naturally, the sunlight extinguishes.
This "Heavenly Punishment," an attack with immense killing power, first utilized by Dou Zhao for movement, is now used for defense, freely and ingeniously to the extreme!
Moments ago it was a life-and-death predicament, and with two slashes, it has already become calm and light!
But for someone as powerful as Dou Zhao, what he seeks is naturally not just calm and lightness.
Almost at the moment Heavenly Punishment was executed, he has already turned around.
He doesn’t even look at the results, for the outcome is already in his mind.
He stands with his back to that falling sun and the newly cracked sky crack... facing the peerless elegance of the white-clothed noble young master, striking down with the move "Skin Bag Defeat"!
Both hands gripping the sword, falling from the heavens.
In this world, beauty and ugliness are merely skin deep.
Pleasure derived from appearances will ultimately decline.
This move specifically targets beautiful facades!
Facing Dou Zhao, who strikes down like a Heavenly God, radiant in appearance, Zhongxuan Zun merely flips his right palm upward, lifting it to meet the heavens.
Within him, five dazzling lights flare up, brightening the Star Tower in the horizon.
He instantly enters the "Five Mansions Bright Together" state he achieved when he defeated Na Liang, in his palm he lifts up a radiant sun, blocking the Tianxiao Sword!
With the sudden increase in power from the "Five Mansions Bright Together," he instantly retrieves the sun.
Avoiding a long detour of the sun within the Sky crack. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
And as the sun collides directly with the Tianxiao Sword, there is only a loud noise.
Like thunder, resembling a celestial drum.
Zhongxuan Zun’s face remains expressionless, his demeanor unyielding.
The light from the "Five Mansions Bright Together," entwined with starlight around his body, not only blocks Dou Zhao’s sword momentum but also avoids the "corrosive intent" of this sword, sparing him from the misfortunes of Gan Changan.
Even more so...
With a raise of his right hand, Dou Zhao is easily pushed, sent flying!
Even Dou Zhao cannot compete in strength with Zhongxuan Zun who has both "Five Mansions Bright Together" and the augmented Power of Zhong Xuan!
But on the Arena, Zhongxuan Zun, clad in white surpassing snow, with his palm supporting the sun, holds off the Tianxiao Sword, pushing Dou Zhao, dressed in red and gold, flying backward into the sky.
This scene is very much like the battle between Dou Zhao and Gan Changan.
Back then, Gan Changan also countered Dou Zhao’s limit with a palm strike.
But Zhongxuan Zun’s actions are naturally not meant to lead to the same outcome as Gan Changan’s.
A peerless prodigy dares what others do not, able to accomplish what others cannot.
What Gan Changan could not do, he can!
How terrifying is the strength of Zhongxuan Zun in the state of "Five Mansions Bright Together"?
Na Liang, revealing a nearly divine body, was so suppressed that he couldn’t even move!
Under this terrifying force, Dou Zhao can’t even shift his sword. The moment the force on the Tianxiao Sword is disengaged, that terrifying power would crush into his internal organs.
This is not something a single drop of blood can resolve!
More importantly, high in the sky, Zhongxuan Zun’s Moon also hangs.
If the Sun and Moon were to converge, Dou Zhao would be crushed into a meat patty in an instant.
Like previously, Gan Changan also channeled dissipating sword energy, striking through the Sky crack with the Fate Sword Technique to "greet" Dou Zhao.
Back then, Dou Zhao shifted his sword, at the cost of a drop of blood, to cut through Gan Changan.
Now, as the scene repeats, unable to shift his sword, what will Dou Zhao do?
He certainly won’t opt to block the Moon with his flesh.
Nor is he willing to test the outcome of the Sun and Moon converging directly.
The veins in his sword-gripping hands burst forth, with muscles protruding, tensing against his attire.
Looking at Zhongxuan Zun, Dou Zhao flashes a brilliant smile: "Tai Yin said you don’t understand the Outer Building, and he was right. You’ve established the Outer Building for such a short time, you should turn back and cultivate for a few more years!"
While his words still hung in the air, in the distant Star Vault, his four personal Star Towers simultaneously shone brightly.
Turn back!
That one phrase, as if endlessly repeating, echoes in Zhongxuan Zun’s ears.
The Melody of Great Freedom from the Sea of Suffering!
That which Dou Zhao honed in the world Beyond the Heavens.
Originally an extremely powerful killing method, used at this moment, simply as he wished, merely for preamble.
Dou Zhao’s gaze first clears like a mirror, then muddies like mud.
The sword on the rack is still, the sword momentum unchanged.
Yet the sword intent has shifted!
He wields the new sword intent, delivering two successive strikes.
One called "Slash Nature see me," the other "Human Disaster."
These are strikes of intention.
The first cuts through the inner self, making Zhongxuan Zun witness his own unworthiness.
The second strike arises from this unworthiness, swaying human disasters! The evil of human nature, from which calamity is born.
Two strikes layered, at the level of the Outer Building, slashing deep into the Divine Soul Battle!
But facing such profound strikes of intention.
With the Five Mansions bright around him, the gloriously radiant Zhongxuan Zun...
He simply asks softly, "Did Tai Yin also say he wouldn’t lose? You wouldn’t forget the outcome, would you?"
Turn back?
What Tai Yin says doesn’t count, and what you say doesn’t count either.
Slash Nature see me?
I have long "seen myself."
I know who I am, I know why I am here, I know where I intend to go.
Father, grandfather, the Chongxuan family, the War God... even Qi Country, the entire present world.
None can sway my resolve!
If I wish to ascend, no mountain is too high.
Where I aim to reach, I will sure arrive.
The world’s disapproval, what does it add to me?
I am Zhongxuan Zun, in this lifetime...
What I think, I do!
The light of the Five Divine Skills entwines with the starlight, merging into one, firmly blocking Dou Zhao’s slashing sword intent from the outside!
As they clash, both sides continue to rise swiftly.
Zhongxuan Zun’s Moon suddenly moves at this moment, roaring as it spins, the moonlight fluttering like ribbons, swiftly charging towards Dou Zhao’s back, attacking from above and below!
