Chapter 652

Next was the Departing Fire Art. The exquisiteness of the Departing Fire Art was not much inferior to the Purple Sun True Scripture. This art was the inheritance of Fire Peak, and only disciples of Fire Peak could cultivate it.

Ranked third was this Scorching Sun Boiling Sea Art, which was said to be simplified from the Purple Sun True Scripture. Although it was not as overbearing as the Purple Sun True Scripture, it was not much inferior to the Departing Fire Art.

Elder Liu Qingyuan had cultivated the Scorching Sun Boiling Sea Art for many years, while Xu Yang had only broken through for a short time. Even with the foundation of Jin Gang Qi, he was confident his Gang Origin was stronger than Xu Yang's.

His figure suddenly disappeared from where he was, his entire body emitting scorching high temperatures, like a great sun crashing into Xu Yang. Wherever he passed, the burning trees were shattered by the tyrannical aura, puffing into powder.

His body flew rapidly close to the ground, tearing a gap in the ground.

"Pop, pop..."

Xu Yang also moved!

His entire body's muscles and bones emitted crisp sounds, his aura like a volcanic eruption, and a wave of air swept out with him as the center, overturning vegetation and mud.

Amidst the vast momentum, dots of gold appeared on his body, then spread rapidly to his entire body. In an instant, he became golden all over, as if cast from gold.

Jin Gang Art!

Gang Origin surged on his body as well, like burning golden flames, emitting high temperatures that could melt gold and iron.

"Bang!"

The ground exploded, Xu Yang took a large step, and his figure suddenly disappeared from where he was. Before the two collided, their auras had already begun to clash, the earth constantly collapsing, and the power of heaven and earth surging violently.

"Boom!"

The air vibrated, and a huge Ming King phantom appeared behind him, emitting dazzling light. In an instant, an aura of "immovable as a mountain" appeared on Xu Yang, as if he and heaven and earth were connected together.

Ming King Immovable Body!

The tyrannical aura covered the sky and the earth, and the power of heaven and earth swarmed over. Xu Yang's robes bulged, his muscles bulged, his figure grew taller, and boiling power roared and surged within his body.

Compared to when he killed Song Yushao, he was much stronger.

However, Elder Liu Qingyuan was not Song Yushao; he was much stronger than Song Yushao.

Facing the large hand Elder Liu Qingyuan slapped out, he threw a punch without hesitation.

"Boom!"

A deafening roar resounded, Gang wind surged, and the fist rose with golden flames, piercing through the air, the fierce fist force enveloping Elder Liu Qingyuan.

Both were cultivating supreme Yang cultivation methods. Before the fist and palm collided, everything around them had already suffered destructive blows; the ground was scorched red, and heat waves rolled.

"Bang!"

Fist and palm collided, flames carrying the terrifying power of piercing gold and cracking stone surged in all directions. Under the terrifying shockwave, everything within a radius of more than ten feet turned into powder, and smoke and dust like dragons soared into the sky.

Within a radius of dozens of feet, all burning vegetation was extinguished by the force of the wind, puffing into powder.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

The earth collapsed, chaotic stones pierced the sky, and further away, many giant trees were uprooted and collapsed in pieces, a scene extremely terrifying.

If Xu Yang hadn't had scruples earlier, truly fighting Elder Liu Qingyuan with all his might in the canyon, none of these people like Sun Tao would have survived.

It could be said that Sun Tao saved Lu Ren, Zhang Hanzhou, and the others.

If Sun Tao hadn't been in the team, he wouldn't have gone to such lengths to lure Elder Liu Qingyuan here before making a move; he would have fought in the canyon directly.

"Martial arts imagery!" Elder Liu Qingyuan's pupils contracted, staring dead at the Ming King phantom behind Xu Yang.

For Heavenly Origin martial artists, martial arts imagery was very normal. They had a lifespan of at least two hundred years; if they couldn't comprehend martial arts imagery in one year, they could do it in ten years; if ten years wasn't enough, then twenty years. Comprehending martial arts imagery was just a matter of time.

But how long had Xu Yang broken through to Heavenly Origin? He had actually cultivated the Ming King Immovable Body to the Major Success realm of imagery body-tempering. There was a high probability that Xu Yang had already comprehended martial arts imagery before breaking through to Heavenly Origin.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

Xu Yang's legs were like roots in the earth, immovable as a mountain, only to see the ground under his feet constantly collapsing.

Elder Liu Qingyuan only felt that he was like a mountain that was difficult to shake; no matter how much strength he used, he couldn't shake Xu Yang back even a fraction. His palm felt as if it had slapped against a mountain, and the counter-shock force almost made his bones break and tendons snap, his blood and energy surging, and his muscles and bones roaring.

At the same time, an even more violent and scorching aura came through Xu Yang's fist, as if it wanted to roast his body.

"You ate that Zhu Yanguo!"

In an instant, he understood something. The Zhu Yanguo that Song Yushao had spent so much effort cultivating had actually benefited Xu Yang, making Xu Yang's Gang Origin far more overbearing than the supreme Yang Gang Origin he had cultivated for decades with the Scorching Sun Boiling Sea Art.

"Not bad!"

The Ming King phantom behind Xu Yang swayed, emitting vast pressure, constantly absorbing the power of heaven and earth and transmitting it into his body.

A tyrannical aura was emitted, and he turned his fist into a palm, his palm tearing through the air and slapping out.

The earth was like being swept by a stormy sea, mud waves surging.

Negative Mountain Xiong Wang Palm!

Behind him, there was no martial arts imagery of the Negative Mountain Xiong Wang Palm, because martial arts imagery could only appear in one form and could not be used in superposition.

However, even without using martial arts imagery, the attack made using the Negative Mountain Xiong Wang Palm was stronger than one made using a simple fist technique.

His entire body's muscles expanded further, like a giant bear standing upright, the tyrannical aura covering the sky and the earth, the surging power making the veins on his arms bulge.

"Boom!"

Destroying mountains and breaking peaks!

The fierce and peerless force tore through the air, the power of heaven and earth swarmed over, and Xu Yang's palm emitted dazzling golden light.

Fierce light flickered in Elder Liu Qingyuan's eyes, and his murderous intent surged; today, no matter what, he had to kill Xu Yang.

Only hearing a "boom," his protective Gang Origin surged, and power surged like flowing water, gathering on his hand, directly blasting toward Xu Yang's underarm in a tricky way.

He had also cultivated the Negative Mountain Xiong Wang Palm and knew the weak points in the palm technique.

This palm was as fast as thunder, the force fierce and peerless. Before the palm arrived, Xu Yang's protective Gang Origin had already rippled, and the swarming power of heaven and earth was shaken away. Between the two, there was only a comparison of pure strength.

Xu Yang's eyes were icy cold, and his murderous intent also surged.

If Elder Liu Qingyuan didn't die, he couldn't ascend the dragon with peace of mind, leaving a crisis for Xu Qing.

The palm he slapped out turned over, slapping diagonally toward Elder Liu Qingyuan's large hand.

"Boom!"

Double palms collided, sounding like iron being struck. Two strands of Gang Origin exploded, turning into violent force that swept out. The ground within a radius of more than ten feet sank again, turning into a large pit, and smoke and dust soared into the sky.

Both of them had their bodies shake, their blood and energy surging like waves, their faces revealing a flushed color.

One had a tyrannical physique, and one, although his body-tempering cultivation base was not high, had been deeply cultivated in the Heavenly Origin Realm for many years, and his flesh shell was equally terrifying. Plus the vigorous Gang Origin, this move was evenly matched, and their muscles and bones roared.

"Boom!"

Xu Yang suppressed his surging blood and energy, his aura climbed, his power boiling like water, and a wave of air swept out with him as the center, the Ming King phantom behind him following and surging, becoming even more massive.

Eight Fiends Subduing Dragon Strength!

To this day, his Eight Fiends Subduing Dragon Strength had become even more profound, and it could already increase his combat power by nearly forty percent.

The boiling power surged like a dragon, his muscles and bones roared, and the great dragon on his back seemed to have come alive, wriggling section by section.

"You have actually cultivated the Eight Fiends Subduing Dragon Strength to this point!" Elder Liu Qingyuan shouted, his heart shocked.

He knew very well what kind of cultivation method the Eight Fiends Subduing Dragon Strength was, because he had also cultivated it, but after pondering for many years, it was still at the entry level and not yet Minor Success.

Xu Yang had obtained the Eight Fiends Subduing Dragon Strength for only a few months, and he could already increase his combat power by so much; his comprehension was simply terrifying.

Regret grew in his heart for forming a grudge with Xu Yang, and at the same time, his determination to kill Xu Yang became even firmer.

"Kill!"

Xu Yang's fighting spirit surged, one step cracking the ground, like a fierce beast from ancient times carrying monstrous murderous aura.

Behind him, the Ming King imagery shone brightly, frantically absorbing the power of heaven and earth. ===== CHAPTER 653 =====
