Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword-Chapter 742 - 719 Battle Gongyang Taisun (3/3)

"Zhou Heng, you seem very confident!" Gongyang Taisun said indifferently, completely unaffected by the "two hundred million Upper Grade Immortal Stones."

"Chickens and dogs, I can take care of them effortlessly!" Zhou Heng smiled, without a hint of anger, as if victory were the most normal thing and not worth getting excited about.

"Such arrogance!" Gongyang Taisun commented, "A mere Sunshine Emperor, what makes you think you can defeat me? You can’t even block eight percent of Xinzhu’s strength, so how could you possibly be my opponent?"

Zhou Heng laughed loudly, "If that’s the case, why challenge me at all, is it fun to bully the weak? Or are you just a coward who only dares to challenge the weak to highlight your strength? However, today you’ve certainly bitten off more than you can chew!"

Those words made Gongyang Taisun’s face darken a bit.

Yes, he was a Sublimation King, and he had even broken through the Realm barriers as a Sublimation King, to challenge a Sunshine Emperor—what would a victory prove? But rumors were flying about that Zhou Heng was Bing Xinzhu’s man, something he couldn’t bear!

That delicate flower was something he had long set his sights on, and only he was capable of plucking it!

Moreover, it wasn’t just Bing Xinzhu’s beauty that he coveted, but something more important.

In order to obtain Bing Xinzhu, he would stop at nothing to remove anyone in his way, so what if he bullied the weak? He didn’t care, nobody sympathizes with the weak!

"Haha, I’d love to see how you’re going to beat me!" Gongyang Taisun laughed loudly, emitting an aura of a timeless hero, an intimidating figure who didn’t care about having once bullied a weaker person.

"I’ll just stand right here, not dodging or hiding, you attack!" He stood like a mountain, since he only needed Zhou Heng to "last" for a hundred breaths, he was in no rush.

"Haha, then I won’t be polite!" Zhou Heng’s right fist solidified, his fist gleaming with golden Divine Radiance, and nine Dharma Aspects appeared behind him, immediately elevating his aura significantly.

"Nine, Nine Aspects Sublimation King!" frёeωebɳovel.com

"How is that possible!"

"Isn’t he just a peak Sunshine Emperor, how did he suddenly elevate to Sublimation King!"

"Breaking through to Sublimation King is easy, he might have already reached the threshold of Sublimation King, perhaps breaking through in these last few days! But to break through with nine Dharma Aspects... that’s impossible!"

"It’s impossible!"

In the stands, people shook their heads, having just broken through and already possessing nine Dharma Aspects? That’s a joke!

"He must have broken through to Sublimation King long ago, just suppressing his aura all this while!"

"Right, that’s why he could barely withstand Bing Xiulan before!"

"He is a Holy Pharmacist, capable of concocting pills that hide aura, it’s not surprising!"

"Definitely the case!"

The crowd murmured among themselves, quickly coming to their own "real truth" that they could accept.

"Nine Aspects Sublimation King?" Gongyang Taisun slightly furrowed his brow, showing a hint of caution, but it didn’t matter. The barrier of the Sublimation Realm was robust, needing Eleven Aspects to break through, so Nine Aspects Sublimation King was just surpassing the limit.

He still had an overwhelming advantage.

"Take this!" Zhou Heng dashed and launched his attack.

Bang!

Gongyang Taisun parried with his hands, a flash of azure brilliance shining, two Divine Radiances trembled, Zhou Heng’s figure touched and immediately retreated back to his original position.

Fifteen Aspects Sublimation King truly was a breakthrough in the Realm barriers, far stronger than Zhou Heng, achieving the level of One Force Breaks Ten Thousand Laws.

Zhou Heng thought to himself, there was a Realm barrier difference between him and Gongyang Taisun, and if it was just a contest of brutal strength, it was too foolish as he was using his weakness against the opponent’s strength.

"Is that all?" Gongyang Taisun dusted off his clothes, his expression filled with disdain for Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng’s expression turned solemn, his aura beginning to rise wildly, like a tsunami, sweeping outward from him in all directions.

The area outside the battlefield was protected by a Formation, making it impossible for Zhou Heng’s aura to leak out, but Gongyang Taisun was hit head-on, his face drastically changing as he felt an immense pressure, almost struggling to breathe!

How is this possible!

The opponent was just a Nine Aspects Sublimation King, and he was Fifteen Aspects! Although both were Sublimation Kings, Fifteen Aspects had broken through the Realm barrier, equivalent to the difference between a normal Sublimation Sovereign and a Sublimation King in terms of strength.

But Zhou Heng’s aura was so overbearing that it even made him breathe with difficulty, how could he not be shocked?

He was a peerless genius, a Martial King, always only known for his aura crushing others, how could he be influenced by someone else?

"Come at me again!" Zhou Heng bellowed, his fists clashing again as he launched another attack.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Gongyang Taisun raised his palms to meet the attack, but this time he could no longer contain Zhang Zhou Heng as he had to retreat several steps with each punch, no longer able to suppress Zhou Heng with strength.

Hiss!

The audience in the Arena all grimaced, many among them being of Creation Realm level, immediately realizing that it wasn’t Gongyang Taisun intentionally giving way, but that he was truly being suppressed by Zhou Heng!

Had Zhou Heng suddenly increased his power?

Absolutely not!

Then there was only one possibility left—that Gongyang Taisun’s power had decreased! But why? It was simple: suppression of momentum!

But Gongyang Taisun was a Martial King, able to suppress others with his presence at the same realm. How monstrously talented must Zhou Heng be?

Zhou Heng grew increasingly fierce in battle. Amidst his roaring, he threw punches like rain, always advancing, never retreating!

In his previous battle with Bing Xinzhu, he hadn’t been able to suppress her with his momentum because his realm wasn’t sufficient—strength was strength, realm was realm; the two should not be confused. But now, he and Gongyang Taisun were both Sublimation Kings; the only difference between them was their strength!

His momentum came into play critically!

Boom!

Zhou Heng unleashed an Explosive Fist. Gongyang Taisun blocked it with his palms, but the terrifying force sent him flying back, crashing heavily against the Arena’s wall and then rebounding.

"Wow—" Gongyang Taisun opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

What!

Everyone was stunned; this scene was beyond their wildest dreams!

Instead of effortlessly defeating Zhou Heng, Gongyang Taisun had been blasted into spitting blood. This wasn’t him buying time; he was genuinely at a disadvantage!

"Brother Dugu, do you think we should stop the fight?" In a private box at the stadium, sat two imposing elders, one the Sublimation Sovereign and the other, though often unassuming, occasionally flashed a gaze sharp as lightning that could make even a Creation Emperor tremble.

That Sublimation Sovereign was Gongyang Luo, Gongyang Taisun’s father. Though he was sure his only son wouldn’t be in mortal danger, how could he not be concerned and personally attend to watch?

The elder addressed as Brother Dugu was none other than the universally recognized top powerhouse of the Immortal Realm, Dugu Xuan!

"No need, my boy Taisun has always had it too easy. Facing some setbacks is good for him; it’s the only way he will truly grow," said Dugu Xuan, his expression unchanged. He was a Super Creation Emperor. Although his status might seem similar to Gongyang Luo’s, his understanding of the Martial Path was leagues beyond.

Gongyang Luo remained uneasy; that was his precious son! Even a single hair harmed would distress him immensely!

"Moreover, Taisun might not necessarily lose; his real power far exceeds what has been seen! Still, this young man... is quite interesting!" Dugu Xuan fixed his gaze on Zhou Heng, "Brother Gongyang, this young man is a Ten Stars Pharmacist, and he possesses a terrifying talent in the Martial Path. Is there really such a genius in this world?"

Gongyang Luo wore a serious expression, "I was the youngest Holy Pharmacist before, but I only earned that title when I was 46,000 years old!"

"This young man is definitely not over five hundred years old!"

Both elders, representing the pinnacle of the Alchemy Dao and Martial Path, were facing a young man with the potential to surpass them in both areas—in fact, Zhou Heng was already being called the foremost in the Alchemy Dao.

"This opponent is good; Taisun needs such rivals to spur his potential and truly surpass all his peers to become the undisputed top," said Dugu Xuan.

The two elders then fell silent, intently watching the battle between Zhou Heng and Gongyang Taisun.

"It seems I’ve underestimated you!" Gongyang Taisun wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Instead of looking discouraged, his face showed fierce combativeness.

As a chosen one, if he lacked even this resilience, how could he have ever been worthy to be taken as a disciple by the top figure of the Immortal Realm?

"Let me show you my true power!" Gongyang Taisun shouted, his right hand waving, suddenly holding a light brown long sword, its surface swirling with a terrifying pressure.

He gently swung the sword, and space itself was torn apart, creating numerous small vortices.

"That’s the Azure Cloud Sword!"

"The top one among the top ten Immortal Artifacts, the Azure Cloud Sword!"

"The matching sword of the top figure of the Immortal Realm, Dugu Xuan, originally just an ordinary iron artifact, but after long use by this top figure and absorbing the blood of countless experts, it naturally gained sentience and became a fearsome weapon!"

"It breaks anything, destroys everything! More crucially, because the Azure Cloud Sword has absorbed the souls of countless experts, it carries an incredibly chilling murderous aura, which isn’t something a Sublimation Realm Martial Artist could withstand!"

"Gongyang Taisun can wield this ferocious weapon, surely by the blessing of Dugu Xuan; otherwise, he wouldn’t even qualify to approach this sword!"

"...Now, what can Zhou Heng use to defend?"

Everyone watched intently. The Azure Cloud Sword itself could suppress Zhou Heng, let alone combined with Gongyang Taisun’s power, and Immortal Technique?

Aside from surrendering, what else could this Grandmaster of Pill Path do?

Hum, Zhou Heng shook his right hand and likewise brought forth a sword.

A black Broken Sword!

Pfft!

Many young people already burst into laughter. A mere broken sword to contest against the current top Immortal Artifact of the Immortal Realm? That was Dugu Xuan’s former matching sword, constantly refined by Treasure Iron, truly a top-level Immortal Artifact!

If Zhou Heng could bring out a Creation Realm Immortal Artifact, there might still be a chance for a fight, but a broken Immortal Artifact... what difference did it make from ordinary iron?

Could it be that Zhou Heng was humiliating Gongyang Taisun in this way? (To be continued.
