Chapter 17: The Dong Huang Inheritance Is Terrifying

6 min read1,480 words

Countless streams of solar essence from the distant starry sky crossed time and space to converge, merging into the Chaos True Fire and multiplying its might!

A sea of flames surged to the heavens, sealing off all directions and utterly engulfing the Saber King!

The Saber King roared in fury. The emperor-light radiance around him swelled, transforming into countless tiny saber beams that guarded his body. They spun madly, continuously cutting down the onrushing Chaos True Fire.

But he, too, felt the pressure. This flame was extremely troublesome, containing the two ultimate powers of chaos and the sun. His saber intent was actually unable to completely sever it; instead, there was a tendency for it to be assimilated and burned by the flames!

“Ten Thousand Sabers Return to the Current, Annihilating Strike!”

The Saber King held nothing back, unleashing his killing move.

Behind him, phantoms of hundreds of millions of divine sabers of every form appeared. They were the manifestation of the “Saber Dao” he had accumulated through campaigns across the Realm Sea and the slaughter of countless powerful foes!

Hundreds of millions of saber shadows converged and merged into his fingertip, transforming into an ultimate saber that seemed plain and unadorned, yet made every weapon in the hands of all weapon-wielders across the battlefield wail in grief!

This saber contained his lifetime’s cultivation and comprehension of the Saber Dao. It was the ultimate embodiment of his law of severance!

Facing this terrifying strike, the Chaos Golden Crow showed not the slightest fear. Instead, it let out an even more piercing cry.

It folded its wings, its entire colossal body seeming to transform into a chaotic sun on the verge of eruption!

The core secret art of Donghuang Taiyi’s inheritance—Chaos Sun Divine Explosion!

Using itself as the catalyst, it compressed the powers of chaos and the sun within its body to the absolute limit, and then… released them with a thunderous blast!

“Rumble—!!!!!”

An explosion beyond words occurred!

Light devoured everything. Sound annihilated everything. Laws collapsed everything!

The border pass battlefield seemed to return to the primordial chaos before heaven and earth had opened!

Whether they were the kings of the Immortal Realm or the Immortal Kings of the Foreign Realm, all were sent flying by the aftershock of this terrifying collision, withdrawing from the core region in horror.

When the light gradually dispersed, the Saber King could be seen standing in the void with saber in hand. His aura was slightly disordered, the emperor-light radiance around him somewhat dimmed, and even a thread of dark-golden blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

On the other side, the form of the Chaos Golden Crow condensed anew. Though its resplendent feathers appeared somewhat disheveled, and its aura was no longer at its peak,

the battle intent and majesty within those twin pupils blazed even more fiercely!

They were evenly matched!

Without fully relying on the Chaos Bell, Lu Xuan, relying on Donghuang Taiyi’s inheritance and his true Golden Crow body, had forcibly clashed with the Emperor-Light Immortal King, the Saber King, without falling the slightest bit behind!

At this moment, Lu Xuan proclaimed to the entire Immortal Realm and the entire Foreign Realm the supreme potential of his own Great Dao!

He, Lu Xuan, even without the Chaos Bell, was still a supreme powerhouse standing at the pinnacle of the heavens!

The Saber King looked at the Chaos Golden Crow, whose aura remained powerful, his gaze gloomy to the extreme. He knew that today, trying to take down Lu Xuan and seize that bell was already nearly impossible.

Perhaps, if they continued fighting, the outcome would still be unknown!

The atmosphere on the battlefield became incomparably subtle.

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on these two supreme powerhouses, waiting for their next move.

Lu Xuan had transformed into the Chaos Golden Crow, using his own body to clash head-on with the Emperor-Light Immortal King, the Saber King, without falling behind.

This earth-shattering scene plunged the entire border pass battlefield into deathly silence, and then an uncontrollable uproar and tidal wave of shock erupted!

“He… he crushed emperor-light saber intent with his bare hands?! Am I dreaming?!”

A veteran Immortal King with white hair and beard spoke in a trembling voice, almost unable to believe his own eyes.

That was an Emperor-Light Immortal King!

The sharpness of his saber intent was enough to sever the ages, yet it had been confronted head-on with a physical body and crushed?

“Chaos Golden Crow… Is this his true strength? Without relying on that bell, he himself has already reached the absolute peak of the Immortal King realm!”

King Pan’s mind shook violently. He finally understood that what Lu Xuan had previously displayed might have been only the tip of the iceberg.

The origin and inheritance of that Golden Crow Immortal King were so mysterious and powerful that they could drive one to despair.

The splendor in Immortal King Qingwei’s beautiful eyes grew even brighter. Looking at that infinitely majestic Chaos Golden Crow in the starry sky, she murmured,

“Supreme sun, evolving chaos… His Dao is unprecedented, and his future is limitless…”

The desire in her heart to befriend him became incomparably firm.

Immortal King Shikong and Immortal King Jimie exchanged a glance, each seeing undisguisable shock in the other’s eyes.

They had lived for endless years and seen countless geniuses and monstrous talents, but someone like Lu Xuan, who at the Immortal King realm could contend with an emperor-light giant and even faintly reveal his own unique and supreme Great Dao, was something they had never heard of before!

“The Immortal Realm… has truly produced a true dragon!”

Immortal King Shikong murmured, his tone complicated.

The surviving defenders of the Immortal Realm were even more moved, tears welling in their eyes as they waved their broken weapons and let out cheers that shook the heavens.

Lu Xuan’s strength had given them unparalleled confidence and hope!

In contrast to the excitement of the Immortal Realm, on the Foreign Realm’s side, whether ordinary dark beings or those Immortal Kings, all seemed as if a basin of ice water had been poured over them from head to toe, leaving them chilled to the bone.

“How is that possible… Lord Saber King’s emperor-light saber intent… was crushed?!”

“What kind of monster is that?! Since when did the Golden Crow clan produce such an existence?!”

“His flames, his chaotic aura… even our dark origins are trembling!”

Fear spread through the Foreign Realm army like a plague.

The power Lu Xuan displayed had completely exceeded the scope of their understanding. It was a suppression on a fundamental level.

King Chi and Wushang’s faces were ashen, their previous composure gone.

The status as giants they had taken pride in no longer seemed so dazzling before Lu Xuan, who could stand evenly against the Saber King.

They even felt an ominous premonition rise in their hearts—this plan of feinting east and striking west was probably going to fail completely!

The Saber King felt it most deeply.

He stared fixedly at the Golden Crow ahead, whose aura had suffered some slight depletion but whose battle intent was growing ever higher. The stormy waves in his heart were difficult to calm.

He had campaigned across the Realm Sea. What kind of opponent had he not seen?

But an opponent like Lu Xuan, whose physical body, Great Dao, and divine abilities were all perfect, as though he had no weakness, and whose potential seemed endless, was one he had encountered for the first time!

“Good! Very good!”

The Saber King laughed from extreme anger. The emperor-light radiance around him blazed once more, and his battle intent was completely ignited.

“After drifting through the Realm Sea for endless years, it has been long since this king encountered an opponent who could make me feel excited! Today, let you and I fight to our hearts’ content!”

He no longer regarded Lu Xuan as a junior he could casually grasp in his palm, but truly placed him on equal footing with himself—even as an opponent he had to face with all his strength!

“As you wish!”

The Chaos Golden Crow that Lu Xuan had transformed into gave a majestic response. Its wings trembled, and it took the initiative to launch an attack!

He did not use the simple and brutal Chaos Sun Divine Explosion again, but instead began to employ a battle method from Donghuang Taiyi’s inheritance that was more aligned with the origin of the Great Dao!

“Chaos Tribulation Light!”

The Chaos Golden Crow opened its mouth and spat out not flames, but a hazy gray divine light, as though formed from countless tiny bolts of chaotic lightning!

As soon as this tribulation light appeared, it seemed to draw forth the chaotic tribulation power in the unseen. Wherever it passed, what followed was not destruction, but assimilation and reshaping!
