197: Dengxian Palace's reaction

The offensive swept towards Spirit Severing King and the others like a storm.

Spirit Severing King and the others immediately launched their own attacks to resist.

However, apart from Spirit Severing King, who could now contend with Xu Qi'an, the others were not strong enough.

The three-colored sun falling from the sky alone made the others look troubled.

“Lord Spirit Severing King, I’m afraid we are no match for this Xu Qi'an!”

A Cultivator in the Tribulation Transcendence Stage said with a look of horror.

A hint of anger appeared on Spirit Severing King’s face, and he cursed, “A bunch of fools! If you can’t even take down this Xu Qi'an, how will you answer the Spirit Emperor!”

Rumble!

Countless tribulation lightning bolts broke through the air first.

The Minor Achievement Perfection Realm tribulation lightning power was simply not something they could withstand.

In just a few breaths, several screams rang out from Spirit Severing King’s side.

Immediately after, several weaker Tribulation Transcendence Stage Cultivators turned into charred corpses, falling to the ground with no vital signs.

Only Spirit Severing King and one of his subordinates remained in mid-air.

Spirit Severing King’s robes were now torn, and his body was covered in a burnt smell.

Xu Qi'an sneered, “Spirit Severing King, your Severing Law is probably not good enough. You can sever ten bolts of tribulation lightning, but not dozens!”

This was the first time Spirit Severing King had encountered such a humiliating situation. He had initially thought victory was assured, but he never expected Xu Qi'an’s strength to already be comparable to an Old Ancestor of a sect!

Even he, one of the Three Kings who shook the four directions and awed the world with his Qi, couldn't win!

“Xu Qi'an, don’t get cocky!”

“Today, even if I have to sacrifice ten thousand years of Lifespan, I will sever you here, otherwise you will eventually become a formidable enemy to my Ascension Palace!”

In the next breath, Spirit Severing King plunged one hand into the chest of a nearby subordinate. His strength rapidly increased, reaching the Tribulation Transcendence Peak.

Not only that, but his injuries were also gradually recovering.

His subordinate looked bewildered, completely unaware that Spirit Severing King would actually kill him.

“My King, am I not your… most loyal subordinate?!”

Spirit Severing King’s expression revealed a hint of madness: “What use is loyalty? Only Immortal Ascension is our lifelong aspiration!”

“Lord Spirit Emperor will surely succeed!”

“All Cultivators are but steps on our path to our grandwilling!”

Xu Qi'an’s eyes narrowed slightly, and the three-colored sun in the sky completely descended at this moment.

Rumble!

The three-colored sun, carrying a dense destructive power, smashed a huge deep pit where Spirit Severing King had been.

The power of Yang Laws dissipated. Xu Qi'an swept his Divine Sense and found nothing where Spirit Severing King had been, but suddenly he sensed a powerful severing attack coming from behind him.

His mind focused, and he immediately used Chaos Conception to simulate all the Yang Laws into Space Law power!

Instantly, the Minor Achievement Perfection Realm Space Law power burst forth. He suddenly vanished from his original spot, and at the same time, he changed the direction of that severing attack.

In an instant, a voice of shock and anger came: “Minor Achievement Perfection Realm Space Law!”

“How is this possible! How can you possess Space Law power!”

Xu Qi'an did not reply, but instead desperately searched for Spirit Severing King's location.

“Found him!”

He suddenly realized that Spirit Severing King had hidden himself within his own Law power, which was why he hadn't found him immediately.

“It actually carries a trace of Major Achievement Law might!”

Xu Qi'an looked at the place where the severing attack had passed, and secretly sighed with emotion.

“Hmph! Even if you have Space Law power, you won’t be able to get out. You can’t break through the seal of the Myriad Phenomena Qiankun Array!”

In an instant, Xu Qi'an noticed that this array was continuously shrinking.

The distance between him and Spirit Severing King was constantly decreasing, which gave Spirit Severing King ample space to unleash his Severing Law.

“Then try this!”

Xu Qi'an’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he directly unleashed the power of Time Laws!

In an instant, time within the Myriad Phenomena Qiankun Array froze. Spirit Severing King was unable to move an inch in mid-air, and even the Law power on his body could not flow.

“What’s going on! My time has been frozen!” Spirit Severing King’s expression changed. His thoughts were still intact, but he was utterly astonished.

“It’s the power of Time Laws!”

“You actually possess Time Laws as well!”

It was already astonishing for one person to possess two Law powers; if they were two top-tier Laws, it was even more unbelievable.

“This is impossible!”

Xu Qi'an ignored Spirit Severing King’s astonishment. He poured all the Law power in his body into a primordial chaos spiritual treasure.

This was precisely the primordial chaos spiritual treasure, Profound Yang Sky-Asking Sword, that the Yang Sect had given him.

After he gathered treasures, the Profound Yang Sky-Asking Sword’s might was already equivalent to Major Achievement Law power.

“Spirit Severing King, please savor the might of my single sword strike!”

Xu Qi'an held the Profound Yang Sky-Asking Sword, his eyes as sharp as a sword.

However, Spirit Severing King was still desperately trying to break free from the shackles of Time Laws. Seeing the condensed sword might in Xu Qi'an’s hand, his heart trembled uncontrollably.

“No!”

But before he could free himself from the shackles of Time Laws, he saw a golden sword blade shoot towards him.

Screech!

The golden sword blade pierced through Spirit Severing King’s body, and the dense Law power shredded Spirit Severing King’s body to pieces.

Bang!

Spirit Severing King is dead!

Xu Qi'an, on the other hand, waved his hand, and all the Law power within the Myriad Phenomena Qiankun Array condensed in his hand.

This included Spirit Severing King’s Law power and the Law power of the other few individuals.

The Law power of these individuals was not the same, but it could serve as nourishment for the growth of Chaos Conception.

With Spirit Severing King’s death, the Myriad Phenomena Qiankun Array lost its support, and Xu Qi'an immediately flew out of the Tian Shu Sect.

“One of the Three Kings is nothing more than this.” Xu Qi'an couldn’t help but secretly sigh with emotion.

Suddenly, Xu Qi'an discovered that his strength was much greater than he had imagined.

“Since that’s the case, there’s still a grudge with Xuanling Immortal Palace, so I’ll settle that too!”

Xu Qi'an then flew towards Kong Heng Sect.

......

Ascension Palace.

Today, the Ascension Palace was destined to be anything but peaceful.

Because Spirit Severing King, one of the Three Kings, had died!

Not only that, but the Ascension Palace’s forces in the Weiyang Star Region and Lingyuan Star Region were completely uprooted.

Mo Qianjie sat high on the main seat of the white jade palace, expressionless, his eyes tightly closed.

Below the main seat was a huge square, hundreds of feet wide, with many Ascension Palace Cultivators dressed in white robes.

“Palace Master, please allow us Three Kings to lead the Ascension Palace Elders and Cultivators to eliminate this person!”

The War Spirit King, one of the Ascension Palace’s Three Kings, said angrily.

He had always had a good relationship with Spirit Severing King. Upon emerging from his secluded cultivation, he suddenly discovered that Spirit Severing King had been killed!

This was a slap to the face of their Ascension Palace!

Mo Qianjie slowly opened his eyes and lightly formed a hand seal with his right hand.

“Xu Qi'an, is this person my final Tribulation Transcendence??”

“But why can’t I predict anything about this person?”

“No, there are still decades until the Immortal Wine Banquet. If I act now, it will ruin my arrangements!”

“The chance for Immortal Ascension is right here, how could I waste this opportunity!”

“It’s just one less chess piece, what does that matter?”

“As long as I can achieve Immortal Ascension, I can give up anything!”

“But what if this person is the variable of the final Tribulation Transcendence?”

“It seems this person must be exiled!”

He then swept his gaze over all the Ascension Palace Cultivators present, making up his mind.

“War Spirit King, Leaf Spirit King, Sea Spirit King, heed my command! Open the Immortal Relic Summoning Array!”
