Immortal Starry Sky-Chapter 660 - 632: Golden-Clad Wang Xu

"What a spectacular duel!"

The Venerable Fulu, seated at the high platform, withdrew the golden light from his eyes and remarked with satisfaction.

"Yaoze, seeing the genius student from your Supreme Palace die before your eyes, you remain indifferent?" Venerable Gua Ao looked at Venerable Yaoze.

Venerable Yaoze also retracted his gaze, his expression as calm as a still well, unchanged from beginning to end.

For Shu Lu to possess such strength, even if he were not the top genius among the Supreme Palace's students, he was still a rare existence.

If Venerable Yaoze had intervened, he could have saved Shu Lu from Wang Xu's hands in an instant, even with the green barrier array.

But Venerable Yaoze did not do so.

"Today is the day of the Palace Worship, all killings, life or death, are irrelevant." Venerable Yaoze spoke indifferently.

Venerable Gua Ao and Venerable Fulu exchanged glances and nodded.

Indeed, not to mention that the battle among students on the day of Palace Worship is voluntary, relying solely on individual strength. Shu Lu dying at Wang Xu's hands has no reason to be justified.

Moreover, the more critical aspect is that they are supreme beings who overlook all life, the Ganges Realm's controllers.

Even if the top student of the first seat were killed before them, it wouldn't stir even the slightest ripple in their hearts!

"This student named Tai Xu is quite extraordinary. He joined the palace less than two thousand years ago and has grown to such an extent. His fortune is astonishing. Perhaps we can allocate a slot for him in the upcoming 'Pool of Truth' journey," Venerable Gua Ao smiled.

"Earlier, I saw his core flicker with golden light, suggesting a breakthrough, with strength reaching a new level. Such excellent potential should be cultivated vigorously!" Venerable Fulu nodded in agreement.

...

The green array continued to operate with its remaining power. From the outside, the palace mansion where Wang Xu was still appeared picturesque with clear mountains and waters and lively birdsong, but inside the realm, it was already dilapidated, filled with smoke and dust.

In the void, Wang Xu's physical body was completely shattered, his core emitted an incomparably dazzling golden light, like a beacon in the night, radiant and illuminating the entire world.

And within this core, a pure life aura continuously seeped and spread.

Two hours later.

Hua!

The flickering of the golden light at the core intensified, and apart from the boundless golden light, nothing else could be seen in the world, as if everything was submerged in this golden light, leaving only a purely golden and flawless world.

The brilliance of the golden light was dazzling for just a moment; as time passed, the golden light gradually dimmed.

With void fluctuations, a corner of a robe slowly appeared within the golden light.

It was a sleeve, a wide golden sleeve fluttering in the wind, gradually emerging from the golden light, revealing its original form.

Next came the front of the robe, with splendid trimmings, intricate and mysterious golden thread patterns outlining a gracefully burning flame design.

Suddenly, a slender hand extended from within the sleeve.

It slowly raised and finally rested on the front of the robe, in front of a determined face shaped from the gathered golden light.

"Life leap... Is this the true gap between lives?"

The golden-faced person carefully examining their palm was none other than Wang Xu.

His entire skin radiated golden light, and Wang Xu only felt a surge of heat within his body. Besides this, it was the change brought about by the Chaos Devouring Fire he had just absorbed from Shu Lu!

This change was indescribably wonderful, and Wang Xu found it difficult to articulate it in words.

Rebirth.

These two words were the closest.

"Disperse."

With a wave of his hand, the golden light around Wang Xu shattered abruptly, transforming into a rain of golden light scattered across the sky.

"This golden light is just too conspicuous."

With golden light still emanating from his skin, a thought crossed Wang Xu's mind, and all the light converged, once again revealing his original Ancient Bronze-colored skin.

"This golden robe, is it a gift from this life leap?"

Wang Xu wore a luxurious golden robe, exuding a sacred and noble aura, just like his current transformation. His life level had completely transcended the realm of cultivators.

"This is your life's color!" You Ji's figure appeared, only now he was not dressed in a red robe, but had become dark gold, like a blend of deep red and light yellow, with a mysterious and dreadful feeling.

"Life's color... The six Supreme Controllers I saw then, the color on their bodies, must be their life's color, right?" Wang Xu said.

"Correct. Your life's color is just beginning to show. If you want to reach the level of the Supreme Controllers, you need to absorb more Chaos Devouring Fire," You Ji nodded.

"Encountering Shu Lu in the Ganges Realm was pure chance. Where else would I find more Chaos Devouring Fire?" Wang Xu shook his head.

Not only was meeting a Devourer so coincidental, but even if he encountered one, they were fellow beings in the vast Ganges Realm. Unless absolutely necessary, Wang Xu was unwilling to confront them in life and death again.

"This array is quite good, it will be useful in the future."

With a glance, a golden glimmer flashed in Wang Xu's eyes, and in an instant, he saw the eye of the array. With a wave of his hand, a stone engraved with array runes flew over into his hand.

This Array Stone originally belonged to Shu Lu. With Shu Lu's death, its life imprint was erased, and it became ownerless.

After retrieving the Array Stone, the fictitious inner world disappeared, revealing the ruins that now lay beneath Wang Xu's feet.

"The Palace Worship is still ongoing. Do you want to take a look?" You Ji gazed towards the Central Palace, where a continuous roaring sound could still be heard.

"With the palace mansion destroyed like this, there's no way for me to cultivate even if I wanted to. Let's go, and see the senior brothers." Wang Xu smiled slightly and then stepped forward.

...

Central Palace, the grand competition of the Palace Mansion is underway.

The combatants are from the Supreme Palace and the Supreme Palace Mansion's trainees.

Judging by the emanating waves, these two trainees have reached the level of the First Blade Seat Sea Cliff, if not surpassed it.

A figure clad in a black robe appeared at the edge of the spectator stand.

In order not to attract attention, Wang Xu deliberately changed his golden robe to a deep black color.

His appearance did not draw much attention, as most eyes were focused on the Martial Platform, completely neglecting Wang Xu.

Yet the three Venerables from the higher section cast a glance at Wang Xu simultaneously.

"Sixth Junior Brother."

On the First Blade Seat, three figures sat upright. Seeing Wang Xu coming, they nodded.

"Tai Xu greets Fifth Senior Brother, Fourth Senior Brother, Third Senior Brother," Wang Xu said respectfully.

These three were Wang Xu's Fifth Senior Brother, Fourth Senior Brother, and Third Senior Brother.

As for Second Senior Brother and First Senior Brother, they were nowhere to be seen.

The three had serious expressions, rarely smiled, and focused intently on the duel on the Martial Platform, showing that today's duel was far from being relaxed and enjoyable.

"The victory has been decided."

Wang Xu had just sat down when the battle ended with the Supreme Palace's side claiming victory.

The victor, a man with green pupils, lifted his head directly after winning, gazing towards the Eternal Palace trainees' direction, firmly locking his gaze on the individuals sitting at the First Blade Seat.

"Always heard of the Eternal Palace's First Blade Seat's illustrious reputation, not sure who would duel me?" The green-eyed man said arrogantly, sweeping his gaze with his brows lowered.

The Senior Brothers' eyes tightened.

"Dear Senior Brothers, let me face him," Wang Xu intended to stand up first because he was ranked lowest here, so it was naturally his turn.

A large hand reached out and pressing down on Wang Xu's shoulder.

"Sit down, Sixth Junior Brother, let me go." A thunderous voice echoed, as the Fifth Senior Brother stood up.

Fifth Senior Brother "Hei Ying" was a burly giant, towering like a pillar. Standing up, he became extremely conspicuous, instantly drawing everyone's gaze onto him.

"Old Six, sit back and enjoy the show." Fourth Senior Brother Hou Xing smiled slightly, gently fanning himself with a fan crafted from fifty-four sharp blades.

Seeing this, Wang Xu nodded and sat back down, while Fifth Senior Brother Hei Ying leaped out like a meteor, crashing onto the Martial Platform, shaking it with web-like cracks.

Their battle was about to erupt.

Don't be deceived by Fifth Senior Brother Hei Ying's burly stature, for he excelled in the "Black Saber," renowned for its speed and illusions.

The Black Saber was elusive, under Hei Ying's control it could transform into "clones," making it difficult for enemies to discern reality from illusion, once confused, the victory was instantly decided.

Green-eyed man's strength was not simple either, he was a trainee of the Supreme Palace's first Dragon Throne; otherwise, he wouldn't be so brazen as to directly challenge the Blade Seat.

Roar!!

A colossal Golden Dragon's shadow erupted from the body of the green-eyed man, followed by a sound that shattered the clouds, a resounding roar!

Hei Ying's face changed drastically, immediately activating his ultimate "Black Blade Illusion Realm," pulling the green-eyed man into it.

Their battle entered a feverish phase, with both sides fighting tooth and nail.

"Old Five!"

At this moment, Third Senior Brother Shen Le's eyes flashed as he observed the battlefield, then his body transformed into a blade-shaped lightning and charged out.

"Hei Ying lost." Wang Xu had already seen the change in the battle.

Hei Ying lay in Shen Le's embrace, eyes dim, blood pouring from his mouth, his chest seemed clawed open by a giant beast, with the inner core partially damaged, his life energy rapidly fading.

Contrast with the green-eyed man, although slightly pale, his robe was slashed with multiple cuts, yet the harm done to him was fairly limited.

"You let me win." The green-eyed man revealed a victor's smile.

"I'll fight you!" Third Senior Brother Shen Le's eyes turned grim, stood up, glaring fiercely at the green-eyed man with eyes full of killing intent.

"He is just an injured man, you are taking it too far."

From the Supreme Palace's side, a man clad in a wide yellow robe, with dark red skin, stepped out.

"Third Dragon Throne, Huang Kong." Shen Le, as the Blade Seat's Third Brother, knew his rival well?

"Dare to fight?" Huang Kong licked his lips, eyes filled with bloodthirsty battle intent.

"Enough with the nonsense!"

Shen Le placed Hei Ying aside, stepping forward boldly, his form immediately transformed into a blade-shaped lightning and shot out!

Dragon's roar emerged from Huang Kong's mouth, suddenly his stature enlarged rapidly, his dark red skin cracked, transforming into pieces of dark red Dragon Scales, his eyes turning beast-like, surrounded by a red mist.

Their fight erupted instantly!

Hei Ying and the green-eyed man retreated swiftly, Shen Le and Huang Kong were the top trainees of the first seats in the palaces, their terrorizing power was beyond imagination! (To be continued.
