Chapter 311: I Am Peerless in the Human World

A strike from a Holy Spirit, especially a peerless figure who has undergone Extreme Sublimation after reaching perfection, is something that even a contemporary Great Emperor under heaven must treat with caution.

Facing such a situation, Zhang Xuan remained unchanged; he raised his fist and collided head-on with that most terrifying blade light, and the Heaven Desolate Halberd was actually sent flying high into the air by a single punch.

Even Shi Huang's hands were trembling; in this round of attacks, he had carried his weapon to confront Zhang Xuan head-on, yet he had still fallen into a disadvantage, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

Even the Lunhui Zhi Zhu and Guang'an Zhizun nearby had their expressions turn somewhat strange, never having expected Zhang Xuan to be so forceful and overbearing.

Zhang Xuan looked at his unscathed fist, but he shook his head.

"You dare call this the Heaven Desolate Halberd?"

"If this were the Luan Gu Era, you would have died ten times over just for this title!"

Being looked down upon, Shi Huang was extremely furious, but the partial information revealed in Zhang Xuan's nonchalant words made his heart skip a beat.

The figure before him was truly too special, nonchalantly sending Amitabha Great Emperor and his ten billion believers to the Immortal Realm.

And he had even made such earth-shattering plans, tricking multiple Ancient Emperors and Supremes into this so-called Immortal Path.

It seemed that such a figure indeed possessed the passage to the Immortal Realm, and must know a great many secrets of the Immortal Realm, causing murmurs to arise in his heart.

When normal Great Emperors and Ancient Emperors trade verbal barbs, it is mostly to defeat the other's Dao heart, but it is often ineffective; after all, Great Emperors and Ancient Emperors all possess an invincible heart and are well aware of the secrets of the entire Universe.

But in front of Zhang Xuan, this mindset could not be maintained.

Because the figure before him truly knew the most ancient secrets, even involving the Immortal Ancient Era and the Luan Gu Era, and could even connect to the Immortal Realm; this was the secret that all Great Emperors and Ancient Emperors most wanted to know.

Once Zhang Xuan spoke of such matters, no one could remain calm.

Yet Zhang Xuan did not provide any detailed explanation in this regard, his fist light swinging as he smashed over once again.

It was still a simple and unadorned movement, still a calm punch, but this time Shi Huang changed his strategy, using his peak techniques to clash head-on with that fist light.

The result was still falling into a disadvantage, still being suppressed, and this time he finally changed color.

Zhang Xuan, however, still calmly raised his fist and pushed forward.

The upgraded version of the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art circulated, and more terrifying and vast power came from afar, being swallowed into his body, making his aura increasingly vast and terrifying.

In a very short time, he had successfully suppressed Changsheng Tianzun and analyzed Changsheng Tianzun's Dao Fruit.

By this time, Changsheng Tianzun no longer had much effect on him.

The purest and most special Origin merged into his body, while more vast Essence merged into the Small World, making this Small World even more powerful and complete.

Shi Huang's expression changed drastically; when the third punch landed, the Heaven Desolate Halberd that accompanied him in dominating the world was shattered, and a huge gap appeared on it.

When the fourth punch fell, the Heaven Desolate Halberd was smashed into two pieces.

Then, vast light flooded this area.

Under the sweep of the terrifying power, Shi Huang's physical body was shattered, and Guang'an Zhizhu and Lunhui Zhi Zhu both changed color because of it.

The master of the God Ruins also had gloomy eyes at this moment.

He felt terror and wanted to make a move at this time, but the Great Accomplishment Saint Body locked onto him without hesitation, and Gai Jiuyou also locked onto another one.

Two supreme figures who possessed the Heavenly Heart Imprint and were one with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth stood before them, and they could easily tear apart the heavens and earth and destroy the heavens and the underground.

This successfully made them stop their actions, and they did not make any excessively dangerous moves.

Zhang Xuan, however, treated it calmly.

"No matter, let them come together!"

The energy within his body was boiling further.

In the process of the great battle with Shi Huang, he had already sensed Shi Huang's special rules.

The opponent could not hold back much in this life-and-death battle, and then it was absorbed and analyzed by this Small World, making the Dao techniques within Zhang Xuan's primordial spirit increasingly natural.

He was clearly practicing the Eight-Nine Profound Art, but it was somewhat like the legendary Nine-Turn Profound Art or the Nine-Turn Origin Art.

It vaguely resembled the three of Moral Heavenly Venerable, Lingbao Heavenly Venerable, and Yuanshi Tianzun combined into one.

Three supreme, peerless figures, combining the opening of the heavens and earth, the creation of the heavens and earth, the existence of the heavens and earth, and the destruction of the heavens and earth.

And now, Zhang Xuan was absorbing Dao Fruits and rules from the rules of one powerful Great Emperor after another, supplementing his own Dao Fruit in the shortest possible time.

Having just forcibly smashed that peerless weapon, Zhang Xuan still had some wounds on his body.

But at this moment, after Changsheng Tianzun's Dao Fruit and Origin merged into his body, he did not need to make any further moves or changes, and the wounds on his body naturally healed perfectly.

Even the most fundamental parts within his body were changing.

Broken strands of hair were being repaired, and even the weakest scars in the deepest parts of his skin were being mended.

Aging cells were quickly expelled from his body, and his metabolism was frighteningly fast, terrifying and peerless.

The most supreme power under heaven was changing silently within his body, and then blooming.

Ordinary practitioners of the Secret of 'Zhe' reaching the peak level would be at most like this, capable of rebirth from a drop of blood, but here with Zhang Xuan, it was going a step further, displaying Changsheng Tianzun's unique exploration of the path to Chang Sheng.

Deep within Zhang Xuan's body, the deepest Origin was vaguely changing.

The Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art was already the most special and powerful method for fusing Origins, and it could also transform a new fetus from an aging old one, achieving the accomplishment of the Indestructible Heavenly Art.

But the Origins that Zhang Xuan swallowed time and time again were a bit beyond the scope of the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art; every single one of those Origins belonged to the strongest beings of heaven and earth.

Never had a person practicing the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art been able to be as exaggerated as Zhang Xuan; even the Ruthless Great Emperor was only so-so.

Even the Ruthless Great Emperor, if strictly discussing cultivation conditions, was far inferior to Zhang Xuan.

Having eaten the best Origins under heaven, it also brought Zhang Xuan a few minor side effects.

Even for the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art and the Indestructible Heavenly Art, it was very difficult to perfectly digest and absorb the Origins within his body, and it was even a bit unattainable.

After all, every single Origin absorbed belonged to an earth-shattering figure.

The Great Accomplishment Saint Body on Sheng Ya, Changsheng Tianzun of the Mythological Era, the reincarnated bodies once left behind by Dugu Baitian and the Demon Lord of the Shenmu World...

Every one of these supreme Origins possessed indestructible characteristics, and to this day, it was difficult to truly merge them with Zhang Xuan perfectly.

Even though Zhang Xuan had already improved the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art, it was still somewhat difficult to digest.

This was not because the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art was not strong enough; any scripture created by a Great Emperor was the most suitable scripture, at least the most suitable for that Great Emperor.

But for others, it was different; others who wanted to reach the ranks of the supreme ultimately had to walk their own path.

Zhang Xuan had made certain modifications to the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art, and had even clarified the path forward.

He would swallow the Origin of many figures, including even their Dao Fruit, and finally use these endless Dao Fruits to mend the heavens.

It was equivalent to saying he first acted as one who steals from the heavens, yet in the end, acted as one who mends the heavens.

The entire framework and direction were determined, but achieving this path remained tortuous and imperfect; at the very least, he had encountered a slight problem in digesting the many Dao Fruits right now.

The figures he needed to digest were too strong and fierce; he was still a bit unable to swallow them at the moment.

And when Changsheng Tianzun's insights into the Secret of 'Zhe', into the Origin, and into life fell completely into Zhang Xuan's hands, his body trembled slightly.

A large portion of the Origin that had originally been vaguely mixed into a mass within his body, yet had long been unable to form a state of chaos—the most solid and difficult-to-digest parts—were triggered and digested at this moment.

The Origin fused at this time, and the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art was further perfected.

Then Zhang Xuan looked at the other three Ancient Emperors who were quite vigilant, and suddenly laughed softly.

"Hiding and dodging for so many years, always worried and fearful; now that I am truly standing before you, I find that you are nothing more than this, and it even makes me very disappointed. Come at me together!"

Amidst the light words, the heavens and earth seemed to be shaking, as if they were about to be torn apart.

The expressions of the other three ancient Supreme beings all changed; the current situation was completely out of their control.

Before, Shi Huang and Zhang Xuan were in a standoff, and because of the dignity of Ancient Supremes, they would not attack a figure simultaneously.

After all, a Great Emperor had always been invincible; there was no such thing as attacking one person together.

But when Shi Huang was beaten into serious injury in a light and breezy manner, and even his weapon was snapped after a few punches, they could no longer sit still.

They even had a strong feeling of being humiliated.

Zhang Xuan, however, did not feel much; he simply walked through the array in a light and breezy manner.

For this day, for the Dark Turmoil, he had prepared for several years; previously, the Dark Turmoil had always been a great mountain pressing on his heart.

But now, with a few punches and kicks, he had beaten Shi Huang, one of the very terrifying sources of Darkness, into serious injury.

Even Shi Huang, not far away, was silent and very uneasy as he used the method of rebirth from a drop of blood to re-condense his physical body.

The figure who was once invincible in the world and brought endless psychological shadows to others now appeared to be nothing more than this.

"Perhaps we don't need to fight to the death here; even the Immortal Realm is not eternally peaceful. We can join forces..."

Lunhui Zhi Zhu said these words with difficulty. For an Ancient Emperor who was invincible in the world, such words were simply a disgrace, because he had vaguely revealed the intention of letting Zhang Xuan take the lead and then entering the Immortal Realm together.

But after he said such words, although the three people beside him were endlessly angry, they did not refute him.

When others are the knife and board, and I am the fish and meat, under normal circumstances, they would absolutely never bow down to any figure.

But Zhang Xuan had broken through this boundary and was strong to the point of exceeding common sense.

With a few punches and kicks, he could beat an invincible figure into serious injury. Moreover, the other party had not yet truly attained the Dao at this time. Although he had not yet achieved the status of a Great Emperor, no one present doubted that he would write a myth, and one even more formidable and terrifying than the Mythological Era.

After all, the strength Zhang Xuan had shown now was already truly invincible in the heavens and on earth; they were convinced and submissive.

The Emperor of the Mythological Era was nothing more than this, and Zhang Xuan was even more special than the Emperor of the Mythological Era.

The Emperor of the Mythological Era needed to use the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill to help people extend their lives, while Zhang Xuan had absolutely no need for these.

He could directly use the endless Immortal Substance to revive the oldest and most powerful figures in the Forbidden Zone.

And he could keep them in their peak state at all times; such a posture and such a display of wealth were incomparable to anything in the whole world.

Therefore, being humiliated by Zhang Xuan like this, they calmed down instead.

They even had the capital to be self-respecting and proud; after all, they were not rotten cabbage in the fields, they were figures who were invincible in the heavens and on earth throughout the ages, having once dominated an era.

Judging from the information about the Immortal Domain revealed by Amitabha Great Emperor and others, as well as the graves scattered all over this world.

The Immortal Domain was not truly peaceful; after the Immortal Ancient Era and the Luan Gu Era, the true enemies of the Immortal Domain had not all died, and they were still engaged in very terrifying wars.

Under such circumstances, they felt that with their strength and realm, they were worth being recruited by the other party, as long as Zhang Xuan was willing to show respect to the virtuous...

"Just based on you lot?"

The four figures were all silent; in fact, they had all acquiesced to such behavior, but they heard such a sneer from Zhang Xuan's mouth.

That sneer from Zhang Xuan, emitted from his nostrils, was not loud, but it successfully made the anger in the chests of the four Ancient Emperors and Supremes who were invincible in the world burn fiercely in the shortest possible time.

They had never been treated like this before; in an instant, they felt as if they had been ignited.

"No one has ever been able to treat us like this, even if you hold the secret to the Immortal Domain, it won't work. An Ancient Emperor cannot be insulted, a Supreme cannot..."

Facing the furious Ancient Emperor, facing that Lunhui Zhi Zhu whose blood and Qi were boiling, Zhang Xuan did not talk any nonsense at all and directly swung a big slap down.

Immediately, all words were blocked in their throats, and not a single word could be uttered.

That terrifying, boundless power and blood Qi forcibly sent Lunhui Zhi Zhu flying.

There was no need to use any means or methods of attack. At this moment, Zhang Xuan was one with the Small World, the power within his body was endless, his magic power was as vast as an abyss, and his physical body, which was more formidable and overbearing than that of a contemporary Great Emperor, combined with his invincible magic power, was unstoppable.

The most overbearing and terrifying power surged out and then crushed over.

No one could stop it; in just a few punches and kicks, Lunhui Zhi Zhu had already become a puddle of blood and mud, yet he still struggled to be reborn.

Zhang Xuan grabbed him with a backhand and threw him backward. Just then, the head of the God King of God Kings let out a roar, and invisible ripples swept over; that solid and immortal Sendai and primordial spirit shattered into fragments, turning into a brilliant firework.

An Ancient Emperor who was invincible in the heavens and on earth thus came to an end. Not to mention Shi Huang, even Gai Jiuyou was a little stunned.

This action was too easy; killing an Ancient Emperor was like killing a chicken.

Yet Zhang Xuan looked calm, the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art operated, and once again, incomparably vast Origin Essence flowed into his body, perfecting his Origin.
