Chapter 372 - I Know Only One Skill
On the cracked Desolation City, the experts flew up into the sky and looked down at the desert, and their faces were in shock.
Demon Saint had crashed into the ocean of sand, creating a thousand feet tall crater in the sand!
As Demon Saint was sent flying into the sand, something else was bulleting toward him, parting the sand below it like water from its sheer speed – it was Zhong Yue!
"Six wheels? How is that he has an extra one?"
The Ji Xiang Saint clan leader was shocked, and she mumbled, "Qi Practitioners open five secret realms and have five wheels, so why are there six secret realms in his Yuan Shen?"
The light wheels behind the Qi Practitioner were the image projections of the Yuan Shen secret realms, one light wheel represented one Yuan Shen secret realm, and just when Zhong Yue surged his power out, six light wheels were clearly visible to the experts.
Six light wheels, this could only mean that he had an additional Yuan Shen secret realm!
This was the most terrifying part of all!
After all, even the gods had only five Yuan Shen secret realms and opening six secret realms signified that his arcane energy would be more than his peers. His psyche would be stronger than his peers and so would his blood essence. He would have a natural upper hand when he fights against others!
Moreover, this advantage would grow even more significant with his increase in cultivation base.
Taking what had just happened as an example: Demon Saint's Heavenly Saint Demon God Inner Core was stronger and more perfect than Zhong Yue's Fuxi Inner Core, even being able to suppress him in high pressure, but when Zhong Yue's sixth wheel emerged, and his blood essence burst out, their positions suddenly reversed!
"Not only that, he still had cultivated both the celestial and demon cultivation techniques!"
Tian Xiang Saint clan master mumbled solemnly, "Other than Feng Xiaozhong that madman, another Qi Practitioner has done it!"
The other magnate's face stiffened as he said, "[Celestial Demon as One] and the six wheels. Only Feng Xiaozhong has the same achievements. No wonder he would work with Feng Xiaozhong, he must've taught all of this to him!"
"This Mo Luo, who is he? Seems like he is definitely not a demon. But I also haven't heard or seen any human-headed snake-bodied celestial race before."
Far away from them, Zhong Yue and the Demon Saint regained their balance and clashed again. The marvelous【Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art】burst out again and slashed the desert in half in a magnificent spectacle.
The Tai Chi Art was also continually changing. With Zhong Yue's mortal body as the demarcating line between Yin and Yang, the celestial and demon elements could synergize in perfect harmony, akin to the natural rise and fall of the sun and moon around him. His power was so strong that even the Heavenly Dharma giant cultivators couldn't help but raise their eyebrows in shock.
Such skills and prowess were strong enough to let them feel threatened; they couldn't help but question whether or not these skills were something that a mere Inner Core Practitioner was capable of producing.
Demon Saint stomped his leg down, and the sands rose to form an altar. This sand altar would follow him as he moved, and the【Heavenly Saint Godly Radiating Art】's powers were fully unleashed at its peak!
The nine demon gods stood on the nine altars made of flowing sands, surrounding Demon Saint's center altar in the middle and circling around it.
Demon Saint's nine demon gods were crushed away by Bo Xun's head in the Triad Ritual, and these nine demon gods present here were the new ones cultivated by him. With these nine demon gods, there were a total of fifty light wheels with the Demon Saint.
In comparison, Zhong Yue’s six light wheels were merely negligible.
Yet in truth, the six light wheels behind Zhong Yue were way more terrifying than the fifty light wheels, the improvements on his Yuan Shen and mortal body was way more than Demon Saint's 50 light wheels.
This was because the nine demon gods were the manifestation of Demon Saint's own evil thoughts, the light wheels of the nine demon gods were then naturally an extension of the power of his own five light wheels. Hence, they were all weaker than Zhong Yue's six wheels.
Their skills were launched in the most simplistic way, and they weren't accompanied by any dazzling spectacle or explosion. The experts in the city all frowned at the simple and crude skills, but Shura and his peers all stared closely at the battle in pure astonishment.
Just how simple were their skills — Zhong Yue slowly pushed his hand forward while Demon Saint gently bowed forward.
But as their skills clashed together, the world then knew how strong they were. They instigated a catastrophic sandstorm in the desert as they fought, and the entire surrounding landscape turned dark as the sky became blanketed with a plume of sand. The friction between the sand particles amidst the collision incited sparks of lightning that somewhat illuminated the surroundings for split seconds.
At the same time, Demon Saint and Zhong Yue were continuing their fight in the sandstorm.
Their skills were cultivated to the extreme, and every extraneous detail in their skills was stripped away to leave their purest core insights as the foundation of their attacks. As these initially unassuming skills were launched in the sandstorm, the marvelous effects they once had were shown through the flying sands.
These sands in the sky formed into the shapes of the Jiao Dragons, demon gods, lightning, Sword Qi, and every other image. They clashed together and dazzled the eyes of the experts.
Krong——
Their palms struck at one another and blood trickled out from Demon Saint’s mouth, the altar beneath him exploded and the totem patterns that formed the altar shattered into pieces and disappeared away in the sands.
This clash was way stronger than the one they had in the Desolation City, the sand hills in the desert were wholly sucked away and merged in their skills, these granules of sands were then shot out with powerful kinetic energy toward them.
Hundreds of miles away, the Desolation City's city wall shuddered lightly as the sands from the center of the battlefield penetrated into the city wall, creating tiny perforations in it!
The Desolation City was the first line of defense built by the demon race to ward off the threat of the dragon race. The city walls were all constructed most strongly and firmly; many demon Qi Practitioners had poured their own essences into it to make it nearly impenetrable. And yet, Zhong Yue and Demon Saint's battle was comparable to a fight between two Heavenly Dharma giant cultivators. Although the battlefield was far away, the city wall was still inflicted with a tremendous amount of damage!
Zhong Yue's immense arcane energy managed to push Demon Saint backward, and in the next second, the suction force of the【Celestial Demon Yi】then sucked him back toward Zhong Yue's palm again.
This was Zhong Yue's skill, the power of the【Celestial Demon Yi】, a simple skill within which was hidden a marvelous power.
His arcane energy would strike Demon Saint back, and the power in his palm would suck Demon Saint back to him. Like this, Zhong Yue managed to inflict Demon Saint
with substantial injuries.
The two different powers of the suction force were precisely the Yin and Yang Qi – the celestial arcane energy and demon arcane energy. It disrupted Demon Saint's own arcane energy and left him helpless with no choice.
After all, the sixth wheel had bestowed Zhong Yue with a substantial boost in arcane energy and a significant reserve of blood essence, allowing him to surpass Demon Saint's strength!
Ka-cha!
Demon Saint's whole right arm was sucked into the Tai Chi Art of the【Celestial Demon Yi】, his bones cracked and his flesh became minced in the storm of power.
Demon Saint muffled a deep groan and cast the sands around him into swords and thrust them Zhong Yue's stomach. Meanwhile, the two inner cores were fighting in the sky, his Heavenly Saint Demon God Inner Core suddenly plunged down and entered his mouth. As Demon Saint ate the inner core, he clenched on the emerald leaf and also thrust it over at Zhong Yue.
At the same time, the Fuxi Inner Core also returned to Zhong Yue, who then raised the Golden Peng Sword to counter the incoming attacks.
The two divine swords clashed together, and the surroundings turned silent.
Demon Saint turned the emerald sword, and a heavy gale blasted onto Zhong Yue's chest, creating a loud, blunt sound and causing a few of his rib bones to crack. He was sent flying like a ragged doll, tumbling through the sands violently before finally crashing into the city wall.
The heavily damaged city wall finally collapsed, and the buildings crumbled to rubble along with its fall. Zhong Yue was sent flying through the walls of many buildings from the impact force.
Just as Zhong Yue was sent flying to the sky, he had cast out the Fuxi divine third eye, shooting out a sword ray that slashed from the top to bottom of Demon Saint. Unfortunately, Demon Saint's reaction was quick as he managed to tilt his head in to successfully evade the killing blow by a hair's breadth; he managed to escape the attack with only his left ear sliced off his head!
The sword ray was formed by the Yin Yang Qi from the divine third eye and was cast out as the【Great Boundless Sword Qi】. After Demon Saint's left ear was sliced away, it continued down to his throat and down through his chest.
Demon Saint plunged his body down and turned into black smoke that permeated down through the sand to recondense into his corporeal form a thousand feet away from the Sword Qi to effectively avoid Zhong Yue's deadly blow.
“Die!”
He had only one arm left, and he suddenly raised his hand up, flicked his finger, and shot out the emerald sword right toward the flying Zhong Yue.
The emerald sword grew in size as it shot out toward the city.
At the same time, Demon Saint slammed his palm at the desert sands and yelled, "Rise!"
Krongg——
The world started trembling as nine altars were raised around the Desolation City, surrounding the hundred-mile-long fortress in the middle.
“The Heavenly Saint Godly Radiation, sacrifice the Desolation City!”
Marvelous totem patterns then climbed on the nine sand altars, these huge altars then turned anti-clockwise and formed a large ritual array formation that covered the Desolation City in the middle, as if he were trying to sacrifice a whole city!
"Scumbag Demon Saint, you actually dare to do it again!"
Above the Desolation City in the sky, the experts and magnates all erupted in a furor, and they quickly moved the Qi Practitioners out from the city. But there were still over thousands of ordinary demons that were too weak and were thus sacrificed in just the blink of an eye.
As these demons were sacrificed, Demon Saint's cultivation base significantly increased, and his severed arm began to rapidly regrow before it was completely restored to its previous state a just a matter of seconds.
“Big!”
Zhong Yue's sound could be heard coming from the Desolation City, and a loud, blunt noise ravaged rang out as a 30 feet long giant sword swung in the sky and hit the emerald leaf, the nine demon altars, and a few buildings in the city away.
Zhong Yue sucked in a deep breath of air, and his sunken chest was returned to normal. His broken bones were also being recuperated at a visible rate. He swung his sword and slashed down the golden sword down from the sky, and the immense Sword Qi raised huge waves of sand high into the sky as the sword slashed down at Demon Saint!
As the sword was slashed out, Zhong Yue followed behind the Sword Qi like a soaring dragon chasing after the dragon ball. Just as Demon Saint evaded the incoming Sword Qi, a bright light then flashed across his eyes, and Zhong Yue appeared with the【Celestial Demon Yi】coming at him!
“【Celestial Demon Yi】!”
Zhong Yue yelled, and Demon Saint was struck heavily. Blood trickled out from his mouth, and before he could even regain his balance, Zhong Yue flashed forward to him again.
“【Celestial Demon Yi】!”
Demon Saint suffered at the skill once again, and he shouted in exasperated fury, "Mo Luo, is this the only skill you know!?"
Even the magnates and experts above the Desolation City also found it odd. They exchanged looks and thought, This Mister Mo Luo, seems like he really does only know one skill….
“【Celestial Demon Yi】!”
Demon Saint spurted out a mouth of blood again, he suddenly felt his blood essence careening out of control, and they surged out like dragons from his body into Zhong Yue's palm. Demon Saint changed his face drastically, and without further ado, he retrieved a Demon God Blood Charm from his light wheels!
