King of Assassins-Chapter 950 - 662: The Final Moment

The power of the Five Elements Array formed by five divine-level powerhouses and five divine artifacts is overwhelmingly strong. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Even though Qin Shiyue is powerful, he is unable to intervene within the Five Elements Array.

This is because the array has already operated its power to the maximum. The powers of the five divine-level powerhouses interfere with each other to some extent. For him to intervene, he would first have to confront the array.

Simply put, the Five Elements Array is already at full power.

Qin Shiyue can only watch the battle from the outside, waiting for the outcome.

From his observation, Gao Xuan's move to self-destruct and convert his essence blood into a sword was quite impressive. However, before the might of the Five Elements Array, these intricate changes don't mean much.

Whether the array can be broken still depends on Gao Xuan's true abilities.

Qin Shiyue is also curious, after being reborn for a thousand years, how much power does he really have left?

No matter how the spectators see or think, it cannot influence the battle.

The bright and sharp sword light formed from essence blood pierced straight into the massive treetop that covered the sky. The treetop dropped streaks of cyan lightning, like countless electric serpents dancing.

The pure yang thunderous might can subdue all external techniques.

Why was Wood Origin able to become the First Saint? It was because his personal cultivation surpassed all in the Holy Hall.

Although the White Tiger Immortal-Slaying Sword and Nine Yang Flame Light Sword are deadly artifacts, compared to Wood Origin's Cyan Dragon Wind and Thunder Banner, they lack in grandeur and fierceness. While the Central Wuji Spear is heavy, it is not as sharp and dominant as the Wind and Thunder Banner.

Although the cooperation among the five divine-level powerhouses is not very tight, the Five Elements power complement each other, further enhancing the power of the Cyan Dragon Wind and Thunder Banner.

Although the sword light formed from Gao Xuan's essence blood is extremely sharp, Wood Origin is not afraid, controlling his domain to envelop it slowly, intending to thoroughly dissolve the blood-colored sword light with endless wind and thunder.

Just as the Cyan Dragon Wind and Thunder Divine Realm was closing, the blood-colored sword light, like ripples, flowed out from the vast domain of the Cyan Dragon Wind and Thunder Divine Realm.

The extremely spiritual change of the sword light amazed Qin Shiyue, who was watching the battle. He recognized this sword technique as Gao Xuan's proud absolute skill: Ripple Sword.

No matter how vast the cosmos is, only Gao Xuan can use this Ripple Sword move.

There is no doubt, the opponent is indeed Gao Xuan!

Realizing this, Qin Shiyue felt an unexpected sense of calm. He had no more doubts; it was merely a battle, either win or die. What is there to fear!

Just as the Ripple Sword light was about to break free from the constraints of the Five Elements Array, the surrounding black dragon had already entangled with the sword light.

The silver-white sword light of the White Tiger Immortal-Slaying Sword followed, and the Nine Yang Flame Light Sword arrived soon after.

The Central Wuji Spear commanded by Tu Zhengnan was also poised and adjusted.

The Five Elements Array composed of five divine-level powerhouses pulsated with endless source power and infinite changes.

The five powerhouses attacked in turn, giving Gao Xuan no room for respite.

The divine-level battle is so straightforward, precisely because they have harnessed their power to the utmost, returning to the essence, each move imbued with unparalleled divine might.

In contrast, Gao Xuan's flashy move when killing Huo Wuming seemed overly complicated. Facing the simple Five Elements Array, that move could not be executed.

In comparison, the Five Elements Array is evidently more sophisticated.

Many powerhouses watching the battle from the Holy Hall felt secretly pleased, thinking that although Gao Xuan was strong, he couldn't escape the Five Elements Array this time.

However, compelling five divine-level powerhouses to join forces, Gao Xuan is indeed worthy of being the unrivaled powerhouse who dominated the Star River a millennium ago.

Many saints felt that Gao Xuan had no chance of surviving, and they now had the leisure to admire Gao Xuan's cultivation.

The blood-colored sword light, trapped by the Beiming Xuanwu Whip, could only engage in a tangled battle with the White Tiger Immortal-Slaying Sword and the Nine Yang Flame Light Sword that followed.

The White Tiger Immortal-Slaying Sword is sharp and fast, while the Nine Yang Flame Light Sword is fierce and powerful. The sharp metal and fiery flame sword lights complemented each other, advancing and retreating, and the dual swords gradually developed a mutual understanding.

In the blink of an eye, the dual swords had transformed into a heavy sword array, firmly trapping the blood-colored sword light and continuously wearing it down. The blood-colored sword light grew increasingly faint, and the sword intent within was nearly depleted.

"Your era is over, let me end you!"

Seeing an opportunity, Tu Zhengnan shouted loudly and thrust his spear forward, and the extremely heavy Central Wuji Spear pierced through the flowing blood-colored sword light.

A divine aspect of a tortoise and serpent entwining emerged on the Profound Yellow Divine Spear, and the Central Wuji Thick Earth Source Power crashed down. Like an invisible mountain of millions of tons descending, the flowing blood-colored sword light was suppressed to the point of near solidification.

The blade of the Central Wuji Spear penetrated straight ahead, disintegrating and shattering the flowing blood-colored sword light.

The Cyan Dragon Wind and Thunder Banner unleashed a downpour of tens of thousands of Wind Blades and Thunder Blades like rain, with electric light flashing madly, transforming the area into a sea of lightning.

The Pure Yang Thunder would completely destroy the divine soul aura and annihilate all life.

Through countless real battles over a millennium, Pure Yang Thunder was proven to be the most effective means of destroying the divine soul. Even a powerful deity could not withstand the power of Pure Yang Thunder.

To utterly kill Gao Xuan's divine soul, the five powerhouses used every means available.

Once the thunder light dissipated, the blood-colored sword light vanished completely.

Wood Origin, Tu Zhengnan, and the other five powerhouses revealed themselves, their gazes fixed on the area where the blood-colored sword light disappeared, each with a solemn expression.

Did Gao Xuan, who was invincible and swept through the Star River a millennium ago, really die just like that?

Although the five divine-level powerhouses exerted their full strength, it was still hard to believe that the opponent was killed so easily without any substantial resistance.

They had set multiple divine barriers, with Gao Xuan having nowhere to hide even if he survived.

Now, they could no longer detect a trace of Gao Xuan's presence.

Tu Zhengnan looked at Wood Origin and asked, "So, is it over?"

Wood Origin remained silent, and his face, as withered as old wood, showed no expression.

Jin Yuyao and Shuimiao also remained silent. It seemed that Gao Xuan was dead, but they both felt something was amiss.

Huo Yunheng mused, "For some reason, I feel like something isn't right?"

Jin Yuyao and Shuimiao both nodded in agreement. The smile on Tu Zhengnan's face vanished as well. He felt the same way.

For divine-level powerhouses, this kind of feeling itself is a problem.

Divine-level powerhouses have super memory and analytical abilities. The information they perceive is never forgotten. Such powerhouses are not blinded by useless information.

Now, everyone felt something was wrong, yet couldn't pinpoint the issue. That itself was a problem.

This meant that there was information missing in their perception, or some of the information hadn't been deciphered.

Qin Shiyue, who was watching the battle, also felt something was wrong but couldn't say what it was.

Previously, although Gao Xuan's combat strength was formidable, he had no special divine techniques. He killed his enemies directly and never used any messy tactics.

But the reincarnated Gao Xuan was now beyond his understanding.

Qin Shiyue asked Nuwa, "Have you noticed anything wrong?"

Nuwa retorted, "You haven't noticed anything wrong?"

She shook her head slightly and sighed, "If you can't even see through this, how do you plan to compete with him?"

Qin Shiyue's eyes suddenly brightened, "That's it, the girl disappeared."

Yuan Youyuan had been following Gao Xuan, but during the onset of the battle, she vanished. It wasn't that she died—she disappeared completely.

With the Five Elements Array, the Virtual Divine Realm, and various arrays heavily sealing the perimeter, how did Yuan Youyuan disappear?

With five divine-level powerhouses and many saint observers, their perception was exceedingly sharp. If even a single Source Power Particle reacted abnormally during the battle, they would notice.

Yet, a living person disappeared without anyone detecting any anomaly. This indicated that everyone had been fooled by Gao Xuan.

It wasn't until this moment that Qin Shiyue suddenly remembered this crucial point. He was immensely shocked and still couldn't comprehend what method Gao Xuan used.

While Qin Shiyue couldn't figure out the changes, he immediately grasped the key point.

"He went to the Nine-pointed Star Lock Divine Palace to reclaim his own body."

Thinking of this, Qin Shiyue immediately issued orders to the many saints: "Everyone, come to the Nine-pointed Star Lock Divine Palace, immediately."

"You just figured it out; you're really getting old and too slow."

Nuwa looked at Qin Shiyue with some pity, "You've already lost this battle."

"If Gao Xuan wins, you'll die too. Are you still hoping for a miracle?"

Qin Shiyue was somewhat angry and confused about what Nuwa was thinking. Did she really find a way out?

Nuwa looked indifferent, "If he wants to kill me, so be it."

Qin Shiyue sighed in his heart; women's thinking is just abnormal, Nuwa included.

With time pressing, he had no leisure to speak further with Nuwa.

Qin Shiyue stood up, and in the next moment, he was outside the Nine-pointed Star Lock Divine Palace.

The three-dimensional Nine-pointed Star Palace hovered in the air, rotating slowly, with layers of runes on its exterior shining with spiritual brilliance.

It was this special divine artifact that completely isolated Gao Xuan and Yun Qingshang from the outside world.

With Nuwa determined to protect this palace, Qin Shiyue had no means to force his way in.

Qin Shiyue now somewhat regretted that his past forbearance and concessions had led to today's bitter outcome.

However, even if he returned to a thousand years ago, he couldn't change this situation.

Because at that time, not only Nuwa but also Jin Yuxiu and everyone in Imperia opposed destroying Gao Xuan's body.

These women weren't clear-headed. Once the rift appeared, they should have resolved the matter completely. Yet, they left his body intact, as if waiting for him to come back to settle scores.

As soon as Qin Shiyue arrived, Mu Yuan and other saints from the Holy Hall also arrived.

A group of top-tier powerhouses from the Holy Hall stood outside the Nine-pointed Star Lock Divine Palace, each with a stern and solemn expression.

Qin Shiyue asked Nuwa in a deep voice, "At this point, are you still going to block me?"

Nuwa retorted, "Does it make a difference?"

Qin Shiyue sneered, "How would you know without trying? At this point, it's a life-and-death situation; who still has the luxury to care about appearances?"

Qin Shiyue told Mu Yuan and other saints, "What are you waiting for? Together, let's break this Locking Divine Palace!"

Mu Yuan and the others solemnly responded in unison. Even though Qin Shiyue rarely showed his face publicly, everyone knew he was the true leader of the Holy Hall.

With Qin Shiyue personally present, they had no room for retreat.

The many saints attacked together, each unleashing their divine artifacts against the Nine-pointed Star Lock Divine Palace.

Countless runes on the Nine-pointed Star Lock Divine Palace were activated, clashing against the various divine artifacts.

For a moment, seven-colored divine light flashed, and Source Power undulated heavily. The entire Holy Hall Headquarters vibrated with a rumbling sound.

Qin Shiyue coldly watched the Nine-pointed Star Lock Divine Palace. Once this palace was broken, it would be the final battle moment.

He couldn't wait to see how skilled Gao Xuan had become after a thousand years!
