Chapter 299: No One Can Defeat Me, Apart From Shen Tian!

The corners of Shen Tian’s lips twitched at Bi Xuanqing’s angry words.

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus was the one who did you harm—why are you settling his scores with me!?

I wasn’t even born when that guy visited North Sea. Isn’t it too much to pin the blame on me?

But it was clear that those North Sea demons had no intention of being reasonable, especially those ugly monsters that had not managed to complete their manifestations.

The vendetta between Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus and the Black Snake race—was it really very important who was in the right and who was in the wrong?

It was not at all important—any excuse to beat up that handsome human. The true goal was to beat him until his own mother couldn’t recognize his face!

After all, between the two reasons: “I want to beat you up because you are too handsome” and “I want to beat you up because of the evil deeds committed by your Martial Uncle”…

It was clear that the latter sounded more convincing and righteous!

At this point, multiple wicked eyes were fixed on Shen Tian.

It was like every single one of them had really suffered under Chu Longhe that time, and they were all looking to Shen Tian for revenge.

The White Prince smiled. “Haha, Black Snake Demon Venerable, you sound so high and mighty.

“Although you guys have clamped down on all information regarding the vendetta between Heavenly Venerable He Tu and the Black Snake race, there is no barrier in this world that is completely impermeable.

“Using this excuse to put the Divine Firmament Saint in a difficult spot? That’s just laughable. Do you really think no one in North Sea knows of your people’s dirty deeds?”

Bi Xuanqing’s face instantly paled at the White Prince’s words.

He glared at the White Prince. “You gossipy octopus, you are very arrogant!

“You are a mere Golden Body practitioner, who gave you the guts to tarnish the reputation of my Black Snake race?”

A massive avatar in the image of a giant python appeared behind Bi Xuanqing. The python charged toward the White Prince.

By right, no one was supposed to fight in the City Of Bliss.

However, there were some exceptions to the rule.

Number one: Both sides agreed to a fair fight.

Number two: Not making an actual physical move but using one’s avatar to suppress one’s opponent. Like what Bi Xuanqing was doing here.

In the latter case, there was no major harm done to the opponent. At most, they might just lose a bit of face.

It was clear that the White Prince’s words had provoked Bi Xuanqing. He was using his Nirvana cultivation level to suppress the White Prince.

To progress one’s cultivation level, one had to take things one step at a time. But a very talented prodigy might be able to fight beyond their own level.

Nevertheless, Bi Xuanqing was also an elite prodigy from the Black Snake race. His talents were comparable to the White Prince’s.

At the same time, Bi Xuanqing’s cultivation level was so much higher than the White Prince’s.

Feeling the immense pressure surging at him from all directions, the White Prince was already finding it difficult just to lift one foot.

Struggling, he lifted his eight tentacles to defend himself.

But under the immense pressure of Bi Xuanqing’s avatar, he was completely helpless.

“The great Prince of the Octopus race helping a human. I must teach you a lesson on behalf of your father!”

Bi Xuanqing sneered. His avatar intensified, putting so much pressure on the White Prince that he was thrown across the room.

The White Prince crashed into a wall, completely humiliated.

At that moment, a figure appeared behind him, supporting him.

That surging pressure was instantly dispelled as if it never existed. Bi Xuanqing’s snake eyes narrowed.

Although he did not display his full prowess for his earlier avatar attack so as to seriously injure the White Prince, it was definitely not a force that could be easily negated.

But that human boy appeared completely unaffected when he was helping the White Prince. He clearly had a very advanced ability to control energy forces.

This Divine Firmament Saint is not simple at all!

“Is this how the Black Snake race handles things?

“Martial Uncle Azure Lotus’ conflict with you guys has nothing to do with me. Why are you trying to implicate me and also attacked Brother White?”

Shen Tian gazed calmly at Bi Xuanqing. His impression of this long worm was at rock bottom.

Taking advantage of his many years of cultivation to show off and bully the younger generation? Truly despicable!

Bi Xuanqing returned Shen Tian’s look. “Not happy? Why don’t you step up and fight one round with me?”

Shameless!

Ao Wu snorted. “You stupid worm. A Demon Venerable like you challenging someone of a lower level? Black Snakes are truly shameless.”

Qi Shaoxuan sneered. His Heaven’s Halberd was already firmly in his hand. “You foolish worm. You are not worthy enough to challenge Brother Shen.

“To challenge the Divine Firmament Saint, you must defeat me first. Otherwise, go back to your own territory!”

Qi Shaoxuan’s purple aura surged, making him look like a young Godking.

In Qi Shaoxuan’s eyes, the Divine Firmament Saint was his most-respected mortal enemy. He was also a goal for him to pursue.

Who is this random Black Snake fellow? Such a terrible attitude. He is not at all worthy of challenging Brother Shen. It’s an insult to Brother Shen to be challenged by the likes of him!

This little nobody. Let me settle him on behalf of Brother Shen!

Black Dragon Island human partner?

Bi Xuanqing turned his attention toward Qi Shaoxuan. He could feel a vague pressure emanating from Qi Shaoxuan’s body.

That was the suppression that the Dragon race had over the Snake race. This dragon power source made Bi Xuanqing feel extremely uncomfortable.

But it was just discomfort.

If they were of the same level, Qi Shaoxuan might be able to use this dragon power source to exude substantial pressure on Bi Xuanqing.

However, Bi Xuanqing was a Demon Venerable at the Nirvana stage. This bloodline suppression was not as effective, and he could more or less ignore it.

“Foolish fellow. Since you are so eager to die, I will grant you your wish!”

The crowd parted. Bi Xuanqing and Qi Shaoxuan flew to the City of Bliss’ outskirts.

The wide space there was more suitable for battle. Bi Xuanqing muttered a command, and a green sword appeared in his hands.

“Emerald Cursed Sword!”

Bi Xuanqing grunted coldly and struck out with his green sword.

Hairline cracks appeared in the fabrics of space surrounding the blade.

Tens of thousands of green sword auras gathered in the sky, looking very much like poisonous snakes surging toward Qi Shaoxuan from all directions.

On top of that, most of the sword auras were hidden inside the cracks in space, as if they were venomous snakes hiding in the shadows, hiding and waiting to strike. No one knew when they would suddenly attack Qi Shaoxuan from behind.

It must be said that as the prodigy of the Black Snake race, Bi Xuanqing was not weak at all.

Hundreds of years ago, Bi Xuanqing had already been a well-known prodigy in North Sea. He was ranked in the top ten Perfected Demons of North Sea.

This so-called “Perfected Demon” was the equivalent of the human race’s “Perfected One”. That was to say, the Golden Core stage.

The Perfected Demon rankings were also equivalent to the Eastern Wilderness’s Golden Core List.

After several hundred years of cultivation, Bi Xuanqing had already made much progress and successfully broken through to the Nirvana stage.

His current battle prowess compared to 100 years ago was as wide as heaven and earth.

In Bi Xuanqing’s opinion, it didn’t matter how naturally gifted those humans were. Their cultivation levels were just too weak!

Even the Sixth Dragon Prince, who was ranked first on the Perfected Demon List that time, would lose to the current Bi Xuanqing if he was still at the Golden Body stage.

How could these two human men possibly be more powerful than the Sixth Dragon Prince?

“What an intricate sword technique. Bi Xuanqing has become better since the previous time I encountered him.”

The Shark Prince looked somewhat grim after witnessing Bi Xuanqing’s swordplay. “He is not showing any mercy.”

It was well-known across the entire North Sea that the Black Snake race was not to be trifled with. They were especially good at sneaky, stealthy sword techniques and were best suited to be assassins.

It was rumored that during the Black Snake race’s prime era, they had produced an extremely powerful practitioner who managed to refine their assassin skills to the highest levels. He had even assassinated a Thearch!

And this “Emerald Cursed Sword” was one of the most powerful core battle techniques of the Black Snake race.

It was rumored that when cultivated to the highest levels, one could even challenge the heavens and make a Great Sage tremble in fear.

Bi Xuanqing’s “Emerald Cursed Sword” was not yet at its peak, but he had no problems dominating his peers with it.

Even Qi Shaoxuan was feeling its pressure.

“Purple Mansion Heavenly Eye, activate!”

His purple aura spread across a radius of about 3,000 feet, while a beast-like eye appeared on Qi Shaoxuan’s brow area.

Suddenly, a dazzling purple beam shot out of that third eye into the area already permeated by his purple aura.

With the purple aura and purple light combined, those formerly imperceptible cracks in space and snake-like sword auras were all highlighted and revealed.

“An opponent who relies on sneaky, hidden tactics is not worthy of me!”

Qi Shaoxuan sneered. Tens of thousands of purple rays shot out of his Heaven’s Halberd, forming the figure of a dragon.

Roar!

The thundering dragon roar sent shockwaves through half of the City of Bliss.

For a moment there, the faces of countless ocean demons shifted. Some of the weaker ones just collapsed to the ground, trembling in fear.

Dragon Crowd!

Faced with a prodigy of a higher cultivation stage than him, Qi Shaoxuan had no intention of holding back.

It was a lesson he had previously learned at the God of War Pagoda.

Only a fool would hold back in a battle like this.

Before his opponent had time to react, he must quickly launch his best attack for the win!

This was the best way to beat someone more powerful than you!

To be honest, Qi Shaoxuan’s “ungentlemanly” move had indeed given Bi Xuanqing a fright.

Are all human prodigies that uncivilized?

According to common battle etiquette, shouldn’t you start small to probe your opponent’s skill levels first?

Who uses such a major move right from the get-go? Aren’t you worried you will miss and then have no follow-up?

Bi Xuanqing’s face turned increasingly grim as he felt the surging dragon aura from that dragon figure.

He could feel the power held by that dragon figure. It was not just because of the dragon bloodline suppression—the attack itself was enough to harm him grievously.

Even though his cultivation level was higher than Qi Shaoxuan’s, he would be in a bad state if he was hit.

“You need to cultivate another 200 years before you can even dream of touching me!”

Bi Xuanqing sneered before suddenly vanishing from sight.

This was one of the secret techniques of the Black Snake race. They could merge themselves into the ocean waters and move in stealth.

Although it was not as good as disappearing into the fabrics of space, it was enough to mask their movements from most opponents. From there, they could launch a sneak attack.

The dragon figure continued to roar, and Qi Shaoxuan looked like a Godking standing there with his Heaven’s Halberd. He surveyed the area, making countless ocean demons shiver in fear.

But the four princes and the rest knew very well that this was not a good thing. Qi Shaoxuan was expending way too much energy.

His Dragon Crowd technique looked very majestic, but it had yet to do any harm to Bi Xuanqing.

Bi Xuanqing was now hidden in the seawater, and he was expending way less energy than Qi Shaoxuan.

If this stalemate continued, Qi Shaoxuan would be in grave danger!

Meanwhile, Shen Tian was just staring at Bi Xuanqing in a daze. A sword light glinted in his eyes.

When he was watching Bi Xuanqing’s swordplay earlier, he could feel vibrations from the Flying Sword technique inside his body.

It was like it was studying and absorbing the Emerald Cursed Sword technique!

Shen Tian originally thought that the bronze ring had only given him an extremely powerful sword technique with astounding killing prowess.

However, he realized now that he had underestimated that technique.

The Flying Sword technique could actually study and absorb the essence of other sword techniques. It could deduce the secrets and key principles behind other sword techniques.

As he watched Bi Xuanqing execute his Emerald Cursed Sword technique, a notion appeared in Shen Tian’s mind.

Let me go. I can do it too!

As he continued to analyze, Shen Tian could vaguely detect some of Bi Xuanqing’s swordplay flaws.

If Shen Tian stepped in now, he was confident of breaking Bi Xuanqing’s sword technique in under a hundred moves. As the analysis continued, he might be able to break it in even fewer moves.

“What are the origins of this sword technique?”

Shen Tian mulled over this as he watched Bi Xuanqing’s swordplay.

Even Old Man Ye was not certain of the origins of that bronze ring. It was just too mysterious.

As Shen Tian was enjoying the show, the battle between Bi Xuanqing and Qi Shaoxuan had grown increasingly fierce.

Bi Xuanqing’s cold laugh echoed through the air.

“Human, are these your best moves? You can be considered a genius at the Golden Core stage. A pity that you are still too weak when going against me!”

An extremely condensed beam of sword light suddenly shot out of nowhere.

The sword light was not bright but appeared somewhat dark and dull.

But the moment it appeared, Qi Shaoxuan felt the hair on his body stand on end. An unprecedented sense of danger engulfed his body. It was clear that this was a certain-death move from the Emerald Cursed Sword technique. Bi Xuanqing had been building up to this.

“Foolhardy human cultivator, you will fall before me!”

The faint green sword light sliced open the fabrics of space and pierced deep into Qi Shaoxuan’s left shoulder.

Luckily, Qi Shaoxuan had managed to duck fast enough. Otherwise, it would not have been his shoulder but his heart that was pierced.

Damage to the heart could also be fatal to a Golden Core cultivator. Qi Shaoxuan had the Nirvana Holy Liquid, and he would not die even if his heart was stabbed.

However, he would be completely defeated in this battle.

“How is that possible! You managed to evade my attack?”

Bi Xuanqing’s eyes narrowed. His speed had been to the extreme.

Even against a Demon Venerable opponent, few could dodge that attack.

Qi Shaoxuan was just at the Golden Core stage, so how did he manage to dodge it?

“Haha, you are fast but still way slower when compared to Brother Shen!”

Qi Shaoxuan grabbed Bi Xuanqing’s right arm, his third eye shining with a divine glow. “I have fought so many battles in the God of War Pagoda, do you think I would have gained nothing at all?

“In my eyes, your silly hide-and-seek moves are just a joke.

“The moment your sword pierced my shoulder, this battle already ended!”

The purple glow around Qi Shaoxuan’s brow area surged.

“Purple Eye Beam of Destruction!”

Suddenly, all one could see was a dazzling purple beam.

As Bi Xuanqing struggled on in vain, the beam pierced through space and stabbed straight through his gall.

Upon seeing Bi Xuanqing bleeding and falling limply from the sky, Qi Shaoxuan put down his Heaven’s Halberd.

He took a deep breath. His face was rather pale. It was clear he had also been seriously injured.

Nevertheless, Qi Shaoxuan’s eyes were filled with an unprecedented glow of confidence!

As a Golden Core cultivator, he had defeated a Nirvana Demon Venerable!

This was the true path of invincibility!

No one could defeat him, apart from Shen Tian!
