#476 - One versus Two
Jun Wuxie rapidly swung the Invincible Sword, each strike landing on the World-Cleansing Millstone, causing it to tremble violently and halting its descent.
The invincible sword intent impacted the millstone, which was connected to the Son of Heavenly Purity's mind and body, causing his body to suffer the impact of the sword intent, his frame shuddering repeatedly.
He held his palms out towards the World-Cleansing Millstone, the Hunyuan World-Cleansing True Qi flowing into the millstone like a rushing river, trickles of blood seeping from the corners of his mouth.
"Bastard!"
The Son of Heavenly Purity's gaze was icy. Throughout his life, his battles had always been swift and decisive, like a hot knife through butter. Never had he struggled so much.
Yet now, he was actually being forced back to the point of bleeding from the mouth.
This, for someone aspiring to become an invincible powerhouse, was an unacceptable humiliation!
"Hunyuan Body!"
He let out a long roar, an earth-shattering momentum erupting from within his body. Immediately following, strands of runes emerged, coalescing into talismans, branded onto his flesh.
In that instant, his True Qi doubled, his physical strength increased dramatically, and the pupils in his eyes transformed into two Tai Chi diagrams.
Within his pupils, the Tai Chi diagrams constantly expanded and contracted, one after another Tai Chi light diagrams flying out, sinking into the World-Cleansing Millstone.
With a resounding boom, the astonishing millstone's power greatly increased, abruptly sinking downwards.
Jun Wuxie only felt that the force he was bearing instantly increased by more than twofold!
His golden blood energy sphere was already severely deformed, on the verge of collapse at any moment.
Under such circumstances, the pressure on his physical body was immense, his bones emitting cracking sounds.
"You are indeed quite capable!"
Jun Wuxie's eyes narrowed slightly, and with a boom, chaotic energy surged.
Chaos Suppresses the Heavens, the phenomenon domain manifested, enveloping his body.
While defending himself, he urged the chaotic energy within the domain, gathering it into a massive fist, integrating his martial intent into it, and launching a storm-like barrage of attacks against the World-Cleansing Millstone.
Simultaneously, he wielded the Invincible Sword in his hand, slashing at the World-Cleansing Millstone.
Gradually, even the Son of Heavenly Purity's Hunyuan Body could barely withstand it.
His body trembled, and some of the talismans on his body were obliterated.
The World-Cleansing Millstone could no longer press down, instead being forced back, its surface covered in sword marks and fist-shaped grooves, completely deformed.
"Tian Yuan, are you even capable of this?"
The Soul Son, his body ethereal, spoke coldly, dissatisfied with the Son of Heavenly Purity's disadvantage.
With a talent growth strength of only two layers of the Ten Thousand Worlds, his arrogance was baffling.
"Shut your mouth!"
The Son of Heavenly Purity glared coldly at the Soul Son.
"Hey, you need to remember, today isn't a fair competition. What did we come here for? To hunt down the disciple of the Martial Saint! Put away your pedantic pride and self-respect. We should join forces to kill him!"
As the Soul Son's voice faded, his ethereal body completely disappeared.
Jun Wuxie's pupils constricted slightly, golden light blooming, the upgraded version of his pupil technique scanning the surrounding void.
However, the Soul Son seemed to have vanished into thin air.
His pupil technique was actually unable to penetrate his stealth techniques!
An extremely dangerous feeling surged into his heart.
He immediately summoned Lanlan.
"Woof!"
Lanlan let out a low growl, its round eyes flashing with cold ferocity, staring intently at a certain spot in the void.
"Rat lurking in the shadows, get out here!"
Jun Wuxie slashed out with his sword, the invincible sword light cleaving the sky.
The Soul Son's figure was revealed instantly.
The Soul Son's eyes were dark and cold, revealing a hint of sinister smile, his figure flashing before disappearing again.
This time, Lanlan whimpered in one direction, then whimpered in another.
It was constantly changing direction, seemingly unable to pinpoint the Soul Son's exact location.
Jun Wuxie particularly loathed this kind of assassination technique, something that couldn't be brought into the light.
Presumably, the Soul Son dared to challenge the Son of Heavenly Purity precisely because of such assassination techniques.
He simply stopped looking at the Soul Son, integrating his martial intent into his powerful primordial spirit, spreading his divine sense, carefully perceiving every subtle change in the surroundings.
At the same time, he controlled the chaotic energy, frantically hammering the World-Cleansing Millstone.
Boom!
The severely deformed, sword-scarred World-Cleansing Millstone could no longer withstand it, shattering with a resounding crash.
The Son of Heavenly Purity's body shook violently, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. The talismans on his body instantly dimmed considerably.
Just then.
The void beside Jun Wuxie suddenly cracked open, an astonishing sword light, like the power of a celestial being, pierced through the chaotic domain, reaching his temple in an instant.
He felt a warning sign in his heart. The runes that had already gathered beneath his feet flashed, and his entire body shifted horizontally almost within a ten-thousandth of a second.
However, even as his body was still in the process of shifting, Lanlan emitted a warning growl.
Simultaneously, behind his body, the void cracked open, an ancient sword that seemed to be dripping with blood, flashing with a chilling bloody light, pierced through the sky, penetrated the domain, and the frigid sword energy instantly reached the back of his head.
The hairs on his entire body stood on end. He jerked his head to the side, the bloody sword light passing almost flush against his cheek, a strand of hair falling with a drop of blood.
Boom!
As his head shifted, he abruptly turned around and blasted out a palm strike.
River Seal!
Between his palm and fingers, a large seal shot out, rivers coiling around it, emitting a roaring sound, blasting forward.
But it struck empty air.
Because the Soul Son, having missed his strike, had already retreated into the void.
"Hunyuan One Qi · Transformation into Three Purities!"
During their perilous exchange, the Son of Heavenly Purity suddenly took a step forward.
His body instantly transformed into three.
Two Sons of Heavenly Purity appeared simultaneously on his left and right sides.
The two incarnations raised their hands, World-Cleansing Millstones that seemed to rotate like Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagrams appearing between their palms and fingers, violently blasting at Jun Wuxie's domain, causing the domain to shake violently.
"Incarnations?"
Jun Wuxie was shocked. The Son of Heavenly Purity had actually cultivated two incarnations.
Hunyuan One Qi Transforms into Three Purities. This secret technique, in its ultimate state, should be able to cultivate three incarnations.
The aura of these two incarnations was clearly several times weaker than the Son of Heavenly Purity, probably only possessing a maximum of twenty percent of his strength.
At this moment, the true body of the Son of Heavenly Purity attacked. On his flesh, all the talismans seemed to have gained new life force, even more brilliant than before.
He took a step forward, the Hunyuan Qi surging from his fist, creating a blazing fire as it rubbed against the air, carrying terrifying power as it blasted towards him.
"With just the two of you, you are no match for me!"
Jun Wuxie was incomparably confident, his gaze cold. The Invincible Sword in his right hand disappeared, his palm clenched into a fist, welcoming the Son of Heavenly Purity's attack.
Seven Kill Fist · Yin-Yang Chaos!
The moment the fist struck out, the heavens and earth shattered, the eight wildernesses were annihilated, the universe collapsed, and the terrifying phenomenon of Yin-Yang reversal manifested, crushing forward with the fist imprint.
A deafening boom.
The two's fist imprints collided.
The terrifying impact of the collision caused Jun Wuxie's chaotic domain to collapse.
At the same time, somewhere in the void cracked open, and the bloody ancient sword reappeared.
This time it wasn't sword light, but the sword and the person wielding it, instantly breaking through the sky. The frigid, bloody sword edge reached the back of Jun Wuxie's head.
Jun Wuxie, who was still clashing fist imprints with the Son of Heavenly Purity, suddenly revealed a cold smile at the corner of his mouth.
With a clang!
Under Jun Wuxie's secret instructions, Lanlan, who had been prepared, cast the Dragon Scale Shield, successfully blocking the bloody ancient sword when it was only half a foot away from the back of his head.
At the same time, Jun Wuxie was still clashing fist imprints with the Son of Heavenly Purity.
But his Primordial Incarnation suddenly rushed out of his body, heavily colliding with the Soul Son who had attacked from behind.
The Soul Son had not expected that at the last moment, at a distance of only half a foot, under such close circumstances, he would be blocked by the defensive shield cast by Jun Wuxie's pet.
He was slightly stunned in his heart.
That brief moment of distraction, a ten-thousandth of a second, destined him to be unable to avoid the impact of the Primordial Incarnation.
His entire body was sent flying out, his center of gravity not yet stabilized, not having had time to re-enter the void, an invincible sword light fell.
With a poof.
The Soul Son's left arm, from the shoulder blade, was completely severed.
He screamed, the excruciating pain causing a look of suffering to appear in his eyes.
Roar!
Immediately following the sword light, a golden fierce tiger pounced, causing his pupils to contract. He retreated rapidly, his body ethereal, re-entering the void.
At this time, with a boom.
Jun Wuxie's true body unleashed the power that had been deliberately accumulating within his arm.
The power of the Seven Kill Fist · Yin-Yang Chaos instantly exploded.
Boom!
The Son of Heavenly Purity's fist imprint was shattered, his body suffering the impact of the Yin-Yang Chaos phenomenon, his fist imprint blasting him away. He flew out on the spot, large patches of talismans on his flesh collapsing, flesh and blood flying. He slid backwards for thousands of meters along the void, collapsing a large mountain, his sternum fractured, his entire chest caved in, his liver and lungs shattered, his heart almost blasted apart, and a mouthful of blood spewed out.
"Ah!!!"
The Son of Heavenly Purity soared into the sky from the collapsed mountain, letting out a roar that shook the mountains and rivers.
His entire body was covered in blood, his chest even more shocking, but his baleful aura soared to the sky!
"Hunyuan Golden Body, Imperishable Through Myriad Calamities!"
He roared, striding towards Jun Wuxie, each step causing golden talismans to appear on his body, a wisp of faint immortal energy spreading out.
His aura was even stronger than his peak!
His entire being was permeated with golden light, even his hair was golden, each strand flying, his flesh covered in dense golden talismans, like immortal scriptures engraved on it.
The Son of Heavenly Purity's current state resembled a golden war god descending to the mortal world, that invincible domineering aura impacting people's hearts.
"It seems that you can barely be considered an opponent!"
Jun Wuxie's pupils constricted slightly, his powerful primordial spirit martial intent sensing the surrounding void.
The Soul Son was injured, and his concealment technique was no longer as flawless as before.
He had already captured a trace of his aura.
Looking at the aggressively approaching Son of Heaven's Purity, his mind stirred.
With a booming sound, the Yuan Shi Avatar's golden blood energy surged like a boiling ocean, with dragons and tigers accompanying it, rushing towards the Son of Heaven's Purity and instantly engaging him in a great battle.
Meanwhile, his true body, with runes flashing beneath his feet and golden blood energy澎湃 in his palm and fingers, disappeared from its original spot, appearing in a certain void where it directly blasted the space.
The space shattered, and a black-robed figure flew out in a sorry state, coughing up large mouthfuls of blood, the black robe on his body soaked through with blood.
"You rat who can't see the light of day!"
Jun Wuxie's eyes were cold as he walked towards the Soul Son.
The Soul Son's eyes were incomparably sinister as he vanished with a flash, wielding a blood-colored ancient sword.
Jun Wuxie stopped, a glint of cold light flashing in his eyes as his body instantly appeared hundreds of meters away, blasting the space there with a punch.
The Soul Son, who had been hiding there, was once again sent flying, spraying blood wildly.
"You... are not good enough. You are far inferior to the Son of Heaven's Purity!"
Jun Wuxie's words were like a sharp knife piercing into the Soul Son's heart, causing his pale face, revealed by his shattered mask, to twist uncontrollably.
"Jun, you're acting so arrogant! If it weren't for that battle pet, that sword earlier would have pierced your soul and sent you to the Western Paradise!"
The Soul Son gritted his teeth, saying sinisterly.
"If? There are no ifs in this world!"
Jun Wuxie continued to approach him, finding it laughable that the Soul Son actually thought he had survived because of Lan Lan.
Even without Lan Lan, he could still have neutralized that fatal blow.
He still had a Chaos Domain that he hadn't used.
That Chaos Domain had been used once outside the capital city, and everyone who knew its effects had died.
Therefore, he had not used it today, intending to keep it as a trump card.
After all, there was still the most mysterious person here, possibly the strongest of the three, silently watching the battle, eyeing him like a tiger.
The Soul Son clutched his chest, staring at the approaching Jun Wuxie.
He did not hide in the void again.
He was well aware of his current state; hiding in the void was useless. He couldn't perfectly conceal his aura, making it a mere facade in front of his opponent.
"Heh, do you really think you can kill me?"
The Soul Son stalled for time, rapidly accumulating power.
Jun Wuxie did not respond, blasting over with a punch, as fast as a shooting star.
