In the face of an ineffective sword technique, a hindered heavy blade, with no chance to disengage from the battle.
The four Starlight Holy Towers in the distant star vault all quivered in unison.
Starlight cascaded down, and shockingly, behind Dou Zhao, it condensed into a hand.
A hand wielding a blade!
The starlight extended into a long sword, identical in shape to Dou Zhao’s Tianxiao Sword.
With the hand of starlight gripping the sword of starlight, it swung in a counter-attack, striking directly upon the moon disc, dimming its radiance and cleaving it in twain!
This was the manifestation of "Divinity Extinguishes"!
Dou Zhao said that Zhongxuan Zun truly did not understand that one phrase about the Outer Tower until now, reaching the very end!
His Starlight Holy Tower embodied his "path".
The path of battle! freёwebnovel.com
And the starlight wielded the divine blade that slays gods!
That hand of battle formed from starlight, with a single strike, sent the moon disc flying. The blade twisted, its momentum changed, immediately following with the technique "Skin Bag Defeat", bypassing Dou Zhao, slashing towards Zhongxuan Zun!
Dou Zhao was a true powerhouse who had stepped onto his own spiritual path.
Like Gan Changan, Na Liang, and Zhongshan Wei Sun... also glimpsed their own paths, but none as much as him, who had already been able to manifest the killing power of his path.
Truly comprehending the terrifying power of this level of the Outer Tower!
Among all the Outer Tower Cultivators Jiang Wang had encountered, only Su She and Yin Guan had demonstrated their "path". Especially the latter, even more potent.
Now with Su She dead and Yin Guan’s divine arrival, the other powerful figures from the Outer Tower that Jiang Wang had seen were largely focused on developing Divine Skills and mastering various secret techniques of the Outer Tower level.
Naturally, this is because the concept of the "path" is comprehensible in spirit but indescribable in words.
Even the renowned institutions of the world could only subtly guide with the four characters of the "Star Tower," providing a little support with the development of the Four Spirits Star Domain... Such was the mighty effort of the sages.
Finding the "path" is difficult, but "holding" the path is a hundred times more so than seeking it. To reach the point of manifesting the killing power is even more challenging.
Yet, the development of Divine Skills yields immediate and invincible results. The secret techniques of the Outer Tower are highly universal, something everyone has the potential to master.
By comparison, the choices made by the majority of Outer Tower Cultivators become evident.
And as for the concept of the "path," after the divine arrival, upon obtaining the Golden Frame and Jade Marrow, having lived over five hundred years, it would not be too late to explore. With a higher perspective, more time, and naturally more confidence.
Back to the battle.
Dou Zhao was undoubtedly one of the top geniuses of the Outer Tower, who, whilst contending with Zhongxuan Zun, remotely commanded the Starlight Holy Tower, using the way of battle to drive the divine blade that slays gods.
Cleaving the moon disc, slashing towards Zhongxuan Zun.
Now with this strike falling, how will Zhongxuan Zun respond?
He can probably only dodge, voluntarily forfeit this moment of advantage, switching from attack to defense.
This was the consensus of many observers in the stands.
But at such a moment, high above.
The five Divine Power Lights swirling around Zhongxuan Zun surged.
Part of it streamed upward to the heavens, merging with the starlight cast from the distant Azure Dragon Star Domain, intertwining with each other, amalgamating to "forge" a hand.
A hand with a radiant glow, robust and powerful.
The hand clenched into a fist, and with a sudden burst of movement, it struck upon Dou Zhao’s sword of starlight!
Zhongxuan Zun had also found his path, also capable of manifesting the killing power of his path!
Sword and fist collided abruptly, exploding into a shower of starlight, scattering across the sky.
The two figures amidst the starry rain.
One clad in a red-bordered golden martial uniform, and the other in pristinely white garments...
Continue to ascend at high speed, as if piercing through the star vault, soaring towards something higher and farther.
This scene, dreamlike and entrancing, captivated the onlookers.
On Dou Zhao’s side, starlight controlled the divine blade that slays gods.
While on Zhongxuan Zun’s side, starlight met with the fist of Divine Skills!
This was a true collision at the ultimate peak of the Outer Tower!
In every sense, the pinnacle in all its aspects!
And it was not until this moment that Zhongxuan Zun gave his final response: "I have achieved the peak of the Outer Tower in forty-nine days."
He looked up at Dou Zhao, and with an unhurried smile, he said: "You all talk about how seasoned and rare you are... it seems that the Outer Tower is not so difficult to comprehend after all!"
As he spoke, he still supported the moon disc with one hand, lifting both Dou Zhao and his Tianxiao Sword... ascending!
At such a moment, with the Tianxiao Sword and the moon disc still in opposition, their forces clashing wildly, the two, who had just flown past the cleaved moon disc, soared even higher.
The two individuals, accelerating upwards, the chilling sound of tearing winds grew sharper, but also more distant...
The two had flown beyond the Arena, rising to even higher reaches of the sky.
The brilliance and elegance, the red-gold and snow-white, retreated further and further from the spectators’ sight... into the distance.
Where might the final destination be?
At the domicile of the powerful winds? Or perhaps, where the genuine blazing sun of this world hangs?
But regardless of where the endpoint lies. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
This was Zhongxuan Zun’s advantageous situation.
For he was the one lifting Dou Zhao upwards, he was advancing, and Dou Zhao was retreating. In the distant high heavens, no matter what peril they encountered, it would be Dou Zhao who bore it first.
Thus, all possible dangers became aids to Zhongxuan Zun’s arm!
To speak of it, the battle had evolved to such a situation.
It was nothing more than Dou Zhao breaking through his predicament with two slashes of his blade, attacking his opponent, only to be blocked again.
This was not truly a moment of weakness.
Dou Zhao had responded flawlessly from beginning to end, never revealing a hint of vulnerability.
But facing Zhongxuan Zun, shining with the light of the Five Mansions, this was a flaw!
A mere block with the moon disc then a push had thrust Dou Zhao into a dire situation!
And as Dou Zhao struggled and even unleashed the starlight divine blade that slays gods, all were dissipated by Zhongxuan Zun.
Now, Zhongxuan Zun made it clear he had rid himself of greed and hubris, not attempting to expand his advantage in other aspects, but grasping this non-advantageous advantage, driving Dou Zhao towards the endgame!
