Chapter 256: The Clash of Two Factions, Jun Xiaoyao Arrives—One Man Suppresses All Defiance!

Hearing that familiar voice, Little Immortal Fairy halted her steps and turned to look.

Two figures arrived—Ji Qingyi and Li Daoxuan.

For a moment, the atmosphere grew slightly tense.

One side was the Holy Maiden of the Human Immortal Sect and the strongest rebellious prodigy.

The other side was the Holy Maiden of the Demon Immortal Sect and an ancient anomaly of the Reincarnation Demon Sect.

The ambient energy of the surrounding heavens and earth seemed to shift.

As for the other rare prodigies who had come here, none dared to move.

If they wished to ascend the Spirit Altar, they would almost certainly be targeted by Ji Qingyi, Little Immortal Fairy, and others.

Thus, around the Spirit Altar, an eerie silence settled.

In this silence, Little Immortal Fairy broke it first.

She smiled, her pure and beautiful face tinged with seduction, giggling: "So it's Sister Qingyi—you've been following me all along?"

"Heavenly opportunities go to those destined to claim them," Ji Qingyi remained detached, her elegance peerless and otherworldly.

Her face was veiled by a light gauze, concealing a beauty that outshone heaven and earth; only her eyes, reflecting autumn waters, gazed at Wang Chuan, faintly shadowed with solemnity.

The aura emanating from Wang Chuan made her slightly wary.

Wang Chuan had only recently broken free from his seal; his aura had not yet merged with the currents of this era, and his cultivation had not yet reached its peak.

Just as Princess Long Ji needed to enter seclusion for a time to fully adapt to the ambient energy of this age.

Yet even without reaching his peak, the faint pressure radiating from Wang Chuan still made Ji Qingyi feel uneasy.

"Who is this…?" Ji Qingyi said.

"Reincarnation Demon Sect, Wang Chuan," Wang Chuan stood with hands behind his back, expression calm.

"Reincarnation Demon Sect…" Ji Qingyi's eyes flickered with surprise.

The Reincarnation Demon Sect had long vanished into the dust of history.

Yet back then, Wang Chuan was quite famous.

After all, he bore the Reincarnation Holy Body, one of the most brilliant prodigies of his age.

Ji Qingyi's heart sank slightly.

She hadn't expected Little Immortal Fairy to find an ancient anomaly as an ally.

In comparison, Li Daoxuan, though possessing astonishing fortune and formidable strength, still seemed somewhat immature next to Wang Chuan.

At this moment, Li Daoxuan's gaze locked onto Wang Chuan.

Because he sensed the faintly radiating primordial force of the world within Wang Chuan.

"You possess primordial world force?" Li Daoxuan's eyes flashed with sharp light.

Wang Chuan raised an eyebrow slightly—he too sensed the surging primordial world force within Li Daoxuan.

And there was an additional aura, even more potent.

This meant Li Daoxuan harbored three clusters of primordial world force.

Instantly, both men's eyes revealed surprise.

They both desired the other's primordial world force.

"Giggles, Sister Qingyi, this Spirit Altar is extremely dangerous—one misstep and you'll perish and lose your Dao. You'd better not ascend it," Little Immortal Fairy chirped innocently.

Her words sounded as if she cared for Ji Qingyi's safety.

But clearly, her true intent was to prevent Ji Qingyi from ascending the Spirit Altar.

The Human Immortal Sect and the Demon Immortal Sect stood as rivals.

She and Ji Qingyi were also competitors.

Little Immortal Fairy naturally did not wish to see Ji Qingyi grow stronger.

"Little Immortal Fairy, those are the very words I was about to say to you," Ji Qingyi would not retreat, but met her head-on.

A whiff of tension seemed to hang in the air.

The next instant, all four acted at once.

Li Daoxuan's surroundings erupted with chaotic energy; his hand shot out, shattering the void inch by inch.

He sensed Wang Chuan's strength and thus unleashed his full power.

Unlike before, when he held back against Yan Qingying.

When Li Daoxuan fought at full strength, his power was terrifying, his aura chilling.

"Heavens, isn't that the legendary Chaos Body?" The other prodigies around them cried out in shock.

The Chaos Body, even in the Immortal Realm, was a rarity seen once every ten thousand years, let alone in the lower realms.

Hence the profound awe.

"Hmm, Chaos Body?"

Seeing Li Daoxuan's move, Wang Chuan's eyes flickered with surprise.

Though the chaotic energy was unmistakable, he felt something was off.

But Wang Chuan did not dwell on it—he struck back.

Even if Li Daoxuan was a Chaos Body, Wang Chuan himself bore the Reincarnation Holy Body; he could not crush the Chaos Body, but could at least stand against it.

Wang Chuan likewise slammed out a palm, imbued with Reincarnation force.

One man struck with rampant chaotic energy, the other pushed forward with swirling Reincarnation power.

Like needle against point, their forms collided, sending endless ripples through the void.

Ji Qingyi and Little Immortal Fairy also clashed.

Ji Qingyi swept her jade hand, magic power surging, radiant immortal light blazing—as if a phantom female immortal emerged behind her.

Little Immortal Fairy, mischievous and devilish like a demoness.

Dark magic erupted from her hands; her entire aura shifted, becoming a seductress who bewitched all beings.

This peculiar charm, paired with her pure yet alluring face—blending innocence and allure—was deeply captivating.

The Demon Immortal Sect was said to inherit the teachings of demonic immortals; Little Immortal Fairy naturally possessed countless supreme techniques.

As they fought, their battle was a sight to behold—graceful as startled swans, like celestial goddesses dancing.

But compared to the two women, Li Daoxuan and Wang Chuan's battle was far more brutal.

Li Daoxuan punched forward, tendrils of endless chaotic energy coiling around his fist—each strand weighed a thousand jin, capable of crushing mountains.

Chaotic energy was among the strongest forces in heaven and earth, enough to inspire dread.

Any other prodigy struck by even a glancing blow of chaotic energy would have their flesh instantly shattered.

But Wang Chuan was different—he bore the Reincarnation Holy Body and wielded Reincarnation force, another ultimate power.

They clashed, shattering the void, shaking heaven and earth.

Behind Wang Chuan, a phantom wheel materialized, rolling across the sky with overwhelming might.

Boom!

A thunderous crash—Li Daoxuan was thrown back, his chest churning with turbulent blood qi.

In terms of foundation, he still lagged behind Wang Chuan.

To put it vividly, Li Daoxuan was like a newly rich man who rose on fleeting fortune.

Wang Chuan, however, had long accumulated deep roots and profound cultivation.

Just as Li Daoxuan prepared to unleash his ultimate technique—

From afar, a faint voice drifted over.

"What lively company here."

The voice carried a peculiar magic, causing Ji Qingyi, Little Immortal Fairy, Li Daoxuan, and Wang Chuan to all freeze mid-action, their gazes snapping toward its source.

Four figures appeared from a distance.

It was Jun Xiaoyao and his companions.

Jun Xiaoyao's robes gleamed like snow, radiant immortal light swirling around him; his aura transcended all, his gaze first falling on the distant Spirit Altar, then returning to Li Daoxuan and the others.

"Brother Xiaoyao," Ji Qingyi's expression shifted slightly upon seeing Jun Xiaoyao, yet her tone remained calm.

On the other side, Little Immortal Fairy's lips parted slightly as she stared, momentarily stunned.

As the saying goes: hearing a hundred times is not as good as seeing once.

Only by seeing Jun Xiaoyao in person could one understand that "peerless immortal grace" was not metaphor—it was his true essence.

"Brother Xiaoyao is really this handsome? I'm in love!" After a moment of daze, Little Immortal Fairy snapped back, her eyes sparkling with dazzling light.

"You're Jun Xiaoyao," Li Daoxuan frowned.

Though he had always looked down on Jun Xiaoyao, now that he saw him in person—

That aura, that faint pressure—Li Daoxuan felt a bad omen stir within him.

Wang Chuan also turned to look at Jun Xiaoyao.

Though this was their first meeting, he had heard his name countless times from Little Immortal Fairy.

Jun Xiaoyao glanced at Li Daoxuan and Wang Chuan, a faint smile touching his lips: "So the remaining primordial world forces are on you two. Good—I won't have to waste time searching."

At these words, Li Daoxuan's eyes flashed with sharp light.

Wang Chuan, expression calm, replied coolly: "No wonder you're the Divine Son of the Jun Clan—your confidence is impressive. But I have one question: why didn't you wait until we'd exhausted each other before appearing?"

He was locked in combat with Li Daoxuan.

If Jun Xiaoyao had waited just a moment longer, he could have let the two sides weaken each other and seized the advantage.

Isn't that the way of the kingfisher?

Jun Xiaoyao heard this, chuckled and shook his head.

"Sorry, but dealing with you all? I can just crush you outright—why bother with all this trouble?"

Jun Xiaoyao's words left everyone present stunned.

This attitude could no longer be called mere arrogance.

He simply didn't regard the Heavenly Chosen, ancient anomalies, or holy maidens of great sects as worthy of notice!

Jun Xiaoyao alone was enough to suppress all who dared defy him.
