Chapter 688: Using My Bones Against Me—Do You Know What Reckoning Awaits!

High in the sky, Fang Yu sat cross-legged.

With his Great Five Elements Art, he not only suppressed the external void, but the five-colored canopy's terrifying radiance had already seeped into Fan Qingying's Chaotic Heaven-and-Earth Manifestation.

Consuming this former No. 1 on the Immortality Contender list was merely a matter of time.

Yet Fang Yu could multitask, observing Shi Yi's Heaven-Mending Art and the Rebirth Pupil Technique.

Both held profound enlightenment for his own Dao.

Below, after using the Heaven-Mending Art to restore his life, Shi Yi faced Shi Hao's Bai Di wielding the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, his expression drastically changed as he launched a desperate assault.

"Rebirth Pupil births chaos!"

Shi Yi roared, his pupils swirling with misty haze like the origin of the world, spewing forth chaos to block the terrifying sword qi.

"Open Heaven!"

Another pure land was opened by Shi Yi—only one zhang in diameter—but within that one zhang, all was serene and tranquil.

This was the mystery of the Rebirth Pupil; Shi Yi had no choice but to fight desperately.

Yet the Bai Di in hand revealed the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass; both the Bai Di and the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass represented two terrifying supreme arts of heaven and earth—the Bai Di was the Bai Di Golden Emperor Slash from the Five Elements, while the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass was a specialty of the Perfect World, one of the Three Sword Scriptures, famed as unmatched in slaughter.

The pure land summoned by Shi Yi's Rebirth Pupil was instantly shattered by the combined force of these two supreme arts.

The crowd was stunned—Rebirth Pupil had already manifested such profound techniques; its pure land defense was invincible, yet it still could not resist Shi Hao's assault—just how fierce was Shi Hao's attack?

Within the pure land, Shi Yi was struck by devastating sword qi and instantly wounded; he spat blood profusely, his expression solemn to the extreme.

"Incredible—is Little Stone about to defy heaven itself?"

"Rebirth Pupil is said to be invincible—even gods fall before it—but now, is its reputation exaggerated?"

"No, Rebirth Pupil is truly powerful; ordinary prodigies would have perished long ago. He's only at a disadvantage because he's facing Little Stone—this one has cultivated too many mysterious Dao arts, far beyond Shi Yi's reach. After all, he's the disciple of that god!"

"Shi Yi has suffered another grave injury—he's activating Rebirth Pupil's power again. Look, his vitality is recovering… wait, there's a new change—what's that? Armor? Can Rebirth Pupil manifest armor?"

As the crowd stared in shock, they saw Shi Yi's left eye gushing divine radiance like liquid, enveloping him, accompanied by a fragrant scent; his flesh instantly restored, glowing fiercely, every inch of skin blazing brilliantly, shrouded in holy aurora, radiating divine might.

Simultaneously, translucent, armor-like crystalline plates emerged, slowly covering his body.

It was a suit of armor, enveloping his entire frame.

This sight stunned everyone.

Could Rebirth Pupil really be so terrifying? The radiance from his left eye had transformed into armor—was this still Rebirth Pupil?

"So what if you have armor? I'll still smash it to pieces!"

Shi Hao said coldly, standing at a distance.

He noticed his brother's vitality was astonishingly strong, but it didn't matter—he'd just keep smashing him. He didn't believe the Heaven-Mending Art could restore him endlessly.

"Good brother, you've truly surprised me."

Shi Yi sneered, his armor igniting; countless symbols appeared, transforming into a streak of light that slashed toward Shi Hao.

The battle erupted again.

"How is the armor formed by Rebirth Pupil?"

In the void, Fang Yu's gaze also watched the battle below.

Fang Yu wasn't surprised his disciple held the upper hand—he hadn't personally taught Shi Hao the Great Five Elements Art, but the mysteries revealed in the Heaven-and-Earth Manifestation were enough for Shi Hao to defeat Shi Yi. What truly interested Fang Yu was Shi Yi's Rebirth Pupil, now manifesting into real armor to protect his body.

This reminded Fang Yu of the legendary divine technique, Divine Elephant Subjugating Hell Force.

A mysterious art from the Sacred King Realm, as one cultivates and ascends in realm, this technique can manifest numerous magic treasures—such as the Robe of the Gods, Angelic Wings, Hell Furnace, Hell Gate, and more. At first, they're semi-illusory like true qi, but upon reaching higher realms, the Robe of the Gods becomes a tangible, real armor—a magic treasure with unimaginable defensive power.

Cultivating one technique until it produces multiple supreme treasures rivaling fairy and divine artifacts—that's one of the terrifying aspects of Divine Elephant Subjugating Hell Force.

Rebirth Pupil could never compare to Divine Elephant Subjugating Hell Force, yet its ability to manifest armor to protect Shi Yi's body was still fascinating.

Yet even with Rebirth Pupil's armor shielding his body, Shi Yi remained at a disadvantage; Shi Hao, unafraid, unleashed the Peng Technique and numerous mysterious arts—this was an ultimate supreme speed.

"Boom!"

Shi Yi was blasted flying, his armor cracking as if shattering.

Shi Hao stepped forward a thousand zhang in an instant, moving with supreme speed like a Peng sweeping forward.

Shi Yi activated his eyes again; a indescribable power surged forth, chaos qi spreading as if carving out a battlefield.

Both Shi Yi and Shi Hao now seemed trapped within a desolate little world—no one else remained, only endless ruins and faint, flickering chaos qi, making the place feel utterly barren.

Rebirth Pupil's power had constructed an entire world!

With a thunderous roar, the entire silent world rapidly shrank, becoming a prison meant to seal Shi Hao inside.

This desolate little world blurred, wreathed in wisps of chaos qi, appearing eerie and terrifying.

It seemed to sever all connection with the outside world; Shi Hao had clearly held the upper hand, yet now he was sealed within this dark space, leaving the onlookers stunned.

"Is Shi Yi about to win?"

"He's only at the Inscription Realm—how can he create a little world? This is truly terrifying."

Even those of the Formation Realm, royal-ranked cultivators, were deeply shocked.

They felt if they were sealed within that little world, they would surely perish.

"Shi Hao, the Marquis of the Wild Heavens of the Shi Nation—will he perish?"

Someone wondered.

"Rebirth Pupil is truly terrifying; one misstep and you perish—it's hard to kill, hard to oppose!"

Yet at that moment, Shi Hao let out a cold snort; his body suddenly radiated five-colored light, expanding outward and instantly prying open the little world, then surging skyward to appear before Shi Yi, delivering a brutal blow.

"Spit!"

Shi Yi spat blood profusely, suffering another grave injury.

Yet in the instant he was wounded, light swirled in his eyes—one eye represented destruction, the other creation and rebirth; yin and yang qi transformed into black-and-white light, surging rapidly to slay Shi Hao.

Yin and yang qi could recreate heaven and earth—or obliterate the void; instantly, they drowned Shi Hao.

Shi Hao roared, five-colored divine light blocking before him, resisting Shi Yi's killing technique.

At the same time, Shi Hao's ten Grotto-heavens emerged, suppressing the void, and he continued to press forward in his assault.

The Kun Peng treasure art and the Five-Colored Divine Light flowed together through the void, empowered by the ten Grotto-heavens, pressing forward to obliterate.

Shi Yi kept coughing up blood, because Shi Hao's attacks were too ferocious, too overwhelming, but he had not yet been defeated outright.

Within Shi Yi's eyes, light flowed, and two golden war-spears flew out, like something out of myth, piercing through the void, invincible against any defense.

Shi Hao's expression did not change. Five-Colored Divine Light flowed out from around his entire body, and as the ten Emperor-figures circulated at will, they immediately shattered that golden war-spear.

Shi Yi roared once more, and from his eyes flew out another war-halberd, cleaving straight down.

It was still sent flying by a single punch from Shi Hao. Then Shi Hao flashed forward, appearing right before Shi Yi, and slammed a fist down in suppression, driving it straight into Shi Yi's right chest, punching clean through, light shining through from front to back, fresh blood exploding outward.

For an ordinary cultivator, this blow alone should have meant death.

But the Heavy-Pupil wielder's eyes dripped blood, and somehow he steadied his own physical body, preventing it from exploding apart. At the same time, a mysterious power surged forth from his chest—not blazingly radiant, but its aura was terrifying beyond measure, as if it would make the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths tremble.

Many cultivators, sensing this power, trembled all over, unable to resist the urge to prostrate themselves in worship.

At this moment, Shi Yi's entire body radiated light, and from his chest it seemed as if a resplendent sun was rising, illuminating the mortal world, impossible to look upon directly.

A Supreme aura faintly emanated outward.

"Supreme Bone, my… Supreme Bone."

Shi Hao saw clearly what it was and let out a sigh.

He was clearly just a child, but upon witnessing the change taking place in Shi Yi, Shi Hao still heaved a long sigh.

After a gap of several years, he had finally seen his own Supreme Bone. It was all because of this bone that so much blood and tears had been shed.

His elder aunt had coveted this bone, stripped it from him, nearly causing his death, and later there were people of the Rain Clan who came to slay his parents.

And after that, his elder aunt was killed, and many people of the Martial King Wang Fu were crippled and slaughtered.

Supreme Bone.

"Not bad, my good younger brother. I have already used the Patching Heaven Art in the Upper Ancient Sacred Court to completely refine this bone. I am very curious—if you were to die beneath the Supreme Bone, I wonder what you would feel?"

Shi Yi had originally been gravely wounded, but after the Supreme Bone appeared, endless runes manifested all around his body, as if they were a scripture. At the same time, the sound of sutra-chanting rose here, rumbling and reverberating.

A terrifying power manifested within Shi Yi's body, like an ocean heaving, like lightning roaring, producing an incomparably grand sound.

Swaths of runes emerged, dazzling beyond compare, carrying a divine might that suppressed the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
