Chapter 136

"Dark Night King, didn't expect you lot to have lived to this era too, all come over to receive death!" Jiang Taixu shouted loudly, his voice shaking the Heavenly Vault, standing with hands behind his back, facing the multitude of heroes alone, causing all the heroes to tremble all over.

Accompanied by the angry shout resounding through the clouds, space violently shattered, like a gigantic spider web extending in all directions, and in just the blink of an eye, three black shadows walked out from the cracks as if.

The three people were shaped like withered wood, rotten excess flesh hanging on their faces, the other exposed parts also rotting abnormally, hanging limply.

The leading Dark Night King's eyes flashed with resentful ghostly light, his voice hoarse and carrying a hideous ferocity: "Jiang Taixu! I've waited this long, just to personally witness your life fade and Dao vanish! To offer sacrifice to my dead elder brother!"

"Less nonsense!" Jiang Taixu's body shook and he rushed straight forward, the void behind him shattering piece by piece.

Having just witnessed Jiang Taixu's strength, the Dark Night King didn't dare be careless; the space above his head was torn open like a scroll, Great Dao rules rapidly outlined within, a huge divine statue connecting heaven and earth, standing horizontally in the world, looking down on all things!

"It's the Dark Night Lord! The Dark Night King's phenomenon!" The surviving Saint Lord level figures exclaimed in shock.

The legendary Twin Kings' phenomenon actually appeared in the world again, crossing the long river of history!

"Jiang Taixu! Today I'll send you on your way!" The Dark Night King's phenomenon extended a hand striking down like a mountain peak; before the fist wind even fell, the fluctuations caused by the fist intent had already covered the surrounding ten million buildings; the buildings at the very center, under the protection of formations, couldn't bear the weight and collapsed and shattered.

Jiang Taixu's eyes were calm without ripples; a sharp intent like a soldier contending with heaven rushed straight at the sky phenomenon; the Nine Secret Killing Saint Arts revealed their sharp edge at this moment once again!

The Dark Night King only felt that what stood before him was not a person, but a soaring giant sword; the sharp edge made him feel that just a glance would split him in two halves; his soul couldn't help but tremble!

"What are you lot spacing out for! Back then you were chased and killed by him, forced to become this ghostly appearance!" The Dark Night King shouted angrily at the two old monsters beside him, gritted his teeth and continued striking down.

Upon hearing this, the two old monsters' figures vanished into the shattered void; two clusters of soaring pitch-black flames blasted toward Jiang Taixu.

Jiang Taixu neither dodged nor avoided, using his hand as a sword he thrust toward the flames rushing straight at him; his arm was sharp beyond compare, piercing through the burning flames straight in, completely ignoring the black flames.

Accompanied by the sound of bones shattering, one old monster flew out from the soaring black radiance; his chest seemed to have been sliced across, a smooth flat cut dividing the bone into two halves.

Even with his chest completely bisected, the old monster still didn't die; his eyes revealed extremely dense fear; his body couldn't help but tremble as he flew backward in retreat!

That strike just now made him recall thousands of years ago when he was being hunted; that despair of being crushed and ignored by a peerless monster genius! Just a simple strike, and it gave rise to thoughts of retreat! An existence he absolutely could not resist.

Before the old monster could retreat far, a streak of green light tore through the void and instantly appeared before him, carrying a breath that suppressed all things blasting onto his body; Dao patterns faintly emerged within.

He didn't even manage to let out a miserable scream before the old monster thoroughly perished; even his rotten corpse turned to ashes in the flames!

The Dark Night King's expression was ugly; he hadn't expected that Jiang Taixu, whose lifespan was nearly exhausted, actually still had such strong combat power! Could it be he really can break through that step?

No! Absolutely cannot let him break through!

The Dark Night King's eyes were full of venomous resentment; his phenomenon rapidly pressed down; along the way the void was rolled and shaken, as if doomsday had descended!

"Scold!" Jiang Taixu let out a light shout; his divine sense, like a storm carrying huge might, rushed straight at that old monster.

Where did the old monster's divine sense have the stability of Jiang Taixu's painstakingly cultivated divine sense; just a mutual collision made him become sluggish!

"Not enough! Still not enough!" Jiang Taixu lifted his head staring straight at the falling giant statue; his eyes revealed madness and battle intent.

"Has God King Jiang gone mad? Why doesn't he condense his scattered phenomena to confront! It'll be too late soon!" The people below concerned for Jiang Taixu couldn't help but exclaim in shock.

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand! God King Jiang is using the opponent's attack to break his final step of breaking the shackles!" Someone with discernment had already seen through God King Jiang's plan.

The Dark Night Lord naturally also saw through the opponent's plan; the power on his body completely poured into the phenomenon; his expression already completely hideous: "Using me as a whetstone? Then let's see if you can block it or not!"

Jiang Taixu faced the fist wind head-on; the sharp intent on his body surged violently; yet his face grew increasingly calm! Mountain Tai collapsing before him yet his countenance unchanged! His heart also gradually calmed within the shattering space!

"Jiang Xuan, do you think God King Jiang can really break through successfully?" Ye Fan couldn't help but look at Jiang Xuan beside him, whose expression was calm, and ask.

Jiang Xuan nodded calmly: "Even if God King Jiang can't succeed, the Dark Night King can't do anything to him either; the Dark Night King from start to finish is just a whetstone!"

As if responding to Jiang Xuan's words, on the Void Battlefield Jiang Taixu slowly opened his eyes; looking at the fist wind already three feet above his head; looking at the opponent's rotten hideous face; endless sharp intent suddenly surged on his body.

The giant statue rushing straight down seemed like frozen space; the fist wind paused at three feet above his head.

The rotten flesh lumps on the Dark Night King's body completely lost their luster, falling piece by piece; pitch-black blood just barely touching buildings could shake formation-protected buildings into ruins.

But even with the Dark Night King exhausting everything, he couldn't make the phenomenon move even a single bit!

Feeling the increasingly dense aura soaring straight to the heavens, Jiang Xuan knew this battle was over; and God King Jiang had finally stepped onto the road of a Saint!

Just as Jiang Xuan had anticipated, one saw a green light Domain Expansion instantly unfold; the phenomenon seemed to be divided into millions of fragments by swords; along with the Dark Night King's rotten corpse bones also being sliced into millions of segments.

Those Saint Lords below who came to besiege and kill had their eyes split with rage; they looked trembling at the Dark Night King being sliced by a thousand knives; as if seeing their own future.

The Extreme Dao Emperor Soldiers deadlocked in the sky, upon seeing the Dark Night King dead, seemed to know this siege had no result; after one collision they quickly hid into the void.

Jiang Taixu looked thoughtfully at the direction the void disappeared; turned his head to look at the intercepted Saint Lords below; his face calm without ripples.

"God King Jiang! Leave a line when being human! I guarantee I won't trouble the Jiang Family again!" A Saint Lord's legs trembled; his voice also couldn't help but tremble slightly; obviously he was already frightened badly!

"Save these words for your next life! If you're lucky enough to have a next life!"

Accompanied by the shattered space slowly healing, a great battle dropped its curtain; but people still couldn't return to their senses from the battlefield just now for a long time.

This was completely a situation of God King Jiang slaughtering!

No! Now he might already be Saint Jiang!

Jiang Xuan patted Ye Fan's shoulder; with a smile on his face said: "Let's go! Now it's your breakthrough opportunity!"

Not long after, a group of people returned to Hualong Pool again.

Regarding Ye Fan's request to borrow Hualong Pool, Jiang Taixu agreed wholeheartedly; the grace of the Divine Spring before, Jiang Taixu also kept in mind; he was just worried how to repay Ye Fan.

As for Jiang Xuan, he instead wasn't in a hurry to return the favor; anyway he already owed enough; the relationship between the two was also much closer than with Ye Fan.

Because Jiang Taixu had just killed in all directions, on Hualong Pool's side instead no forces dared probe further; afraid of provoking Jiang Taixu who had just advanced to the Saint realm.

Ye Fan glanced at Jiang Xuan; seeing Jiang Xuan looking at him encouragingly; he resolutely sat into Hualong Pool.

As he circulated, golden light rippled in Hualong Pool rapidly surrounding Ye Fan; even his clothes were soaked and dyed golden; this is the phenomenon of Primordial Force concentration being too high and materializing; vast Primordial Force like it didn't cost money rushed like a great river into Ye Fan's small body.

As he absorbed more and more Primordial Force, Ye Fan's body exuded a breath of the Cosmos; the surrounding void shook as if fearing this breath.

A trace of surprise flashed in Jiang Taixu's eyes; he had already seen that this young man actually possessed the Ancient Desolate Holy Body! The Ancient Desolate Holy Body had actually cultivated to the point of breaking through the Four Extremes; one can see just how not simple this young man is!

But when he looked at Jiang Xuan again, he felt that having such a person by Jiang Xuan's side seemed very normal too. Even if it's the Ancient Desolate Holy Body, there's not half a bit of comparability with Jiang Xuan!

Jiang Xuan wasn't anxious; he knew Ye Fan would definitely succeed; what he waited for was only the final appearing Innate Dao Diagram; as for the Lightning Tribulation, Ye Fan needed to bear it himself; with True Dragon Immortal Medicine liquid, enduring the Lightning Tribulation isn't a problem either.

Above Hualong Pool, golden light carrying Cosmos breath soared into the sky; the whole sky was dyed golden yellow; attracting many forces to feel curious; probing gazes arrived one after another.

Only this time the probing wasn't fearless; it was careful and cautious looking over. Some young outstanding talents weren't afraid of Jiang Taixu; young generation's matters, the old generation generally wouldn't act; sensing the movement they rushed over one after another.

A crowd of young generation seeing Jiang Xuan watching from afar, all couldn't help but shrink their necks; Xiao Peng Wang seeing Jiang Xuan even couldn't help but retreat a few steps.

After reacting, his face flushed red and he walked forward a few steps; as if demonstrating his courage.

Jiang Xuan had no time to pay attention to those probing gazes, his eyes fixed straight on Ye Fan in the Hualong Pool.

At this moment Ye Fan had already consumed the fourth Enlightenment Leaf, and an ethereal scene of vegetation faintly emerged around him; a harmonious Natural Qi rose from his body, and his aura surged violently by a large margin!

"It's begun!" Jiang Xuan said in a low voice.

"The Ancient Desolate Holy Body actually wants to break through the Four Extremes!" Xia Jiuyou looked in shock from the distance at Ye Fan in the Hualong Pool.

"We can see that without you telling us!" Xiao Peng Wang was forever arrogant toward others; at this moment his eyes were also full of gravity and shock!

The Ancient Desolate Holy Body is known as a constitution Unrivaled in Same Realm; breaking through the Four Extremes means the Ancient Desolate Holy Body has reached minor completion — if it reaches major completion in the future, their pursuit of the Great Dao will gain one more powerful Strong Enemy.

The many talented youths who originally only came to watch the excitement now surprisingly had the thought of rushing up to surround and kill Ye Fan.

But lifting their heads to glance at the flourishing Jiang Taixu and the 'utterly vicious' Jiang Xuan, the killing intent in their hearts dissipated completely in an instant.

Neither can be provoked!

The old — the old cannot be provoked; the Thirteen Saint Lords and the Dark Night Lord with blood not yet dry are the greatest Deterrence! The young — the young cannot be provoked either; even if someone hasn't truly witnessed it and wants to test it, they are held back tightly by people on good terms beside them!

Test it and you're dead!

"Break for me!" Ye Fan roared in anger, his eyes instantly erupting with ten-thousand-zhang Golden Light rushing straight to the heavens, churning the surrounding clouds into chaos; the world seemed to have only him left!

Energy in the Hualong Pool churned, its flowing speed becoming ever faster, like a galaxy pouring into a black hole, its depth unfathomable!

The sky seemed provoked into anger; black dragons enveloped from all directions, the sky above the Hualong Pool instantly pressed down with dark clouds, flashing lightning proclaiming anger from the Great Dao!

Boom!

Accompanied by earth-shaking thunder, a bolt of lightning crashed down fiercely, striking straight onto the meditating Ye Fan.

Ye Fan made no movement, relying on his body to withstand it head-on.

The sky seemed to rage with flashing purple lightning, giving no time to prepare; purple lightning continuously covered downward beneath the dark clouds, completely submerging the Hualong Pool in lightning.

"This is the Nine Words Heavenly Tribulation!" Jiang Taixu said in a deep voice. He hadn't expected the Ancient Desolate Holy Body to be so unaccepted by the Great Dao — merely breaking through the Four Extremes Realm actually brought down the Nine Words Heavenly Tribulation, such a powerful tribulation!

Jiang Xuan's gaze was solemn, adjusting his body's state; after the Heavenly Tribulation it would be his turn!

"Is your little brother alright?" Jiang Taixu glanced at Jiang Xuan whose expression hadn't changed, and couldn't help asking.

Jiang Xuan nodded firmly: "No problem!"

Watching Ye Fan swept by wave after wave of purple lightning, everyone's thoughts differed.

Some expected him to succeed; some expected his life to end right here, preferably so they could seize that Furnace Cauldron themselves; others watched coldly from the sidelines, eyes fixed dead on Jiang Xuan, pondering how to take revenge.

Xiao Peng Wang sighed inwardly: Why isn't he the one up there crossing the tribulation!

Finally the last bolt of lightning fell, the lightning tribulation stopped; Ye Fan, who had consumed True Dragon Immortal Medicine liquid, was in decent condition.

Sensing the lightning had ended, Ye Fan opened his eyes, turned his head to look at Jiang Xuan in the distance: "Jiang Xuan! I succeeded!"

But Jiang Xuan did not respond to him; instead he gazed solemnly at the pitch-black sky.

At this moment the dark clouds pressed even closer, like a Taotie Abyss about to devour everything!

"Not right! The tribulation clouds haven't dissipated!" A cry of alarm rang out from the distance.

Along with the alarm, the originally pitch-black sky suddenly blazed bright; a painting spanning the heavens slowly unfurled, accompanied by dragon chants and phoenix cries, exotic treasures and strange beasts circulating within the painting, every one emitting a terrifying aura!

That fully unfurled Dao Diagram pressed downward at a slow speed!

Unstoppable! Undefendable!

Despair rising in Ye Fan's heart nearly drowned him; that intent of rejection and loathing from the Great Dao made it very hard for him to summon any thought of resistance!

"Innate Dao Diagram! Why would an Innate Dao Diagram appear!" Even Jiang Taixu, who had already broken through to the Saint realm, couldn't help the shock in his heart at this moment!

After shock came helplessness; an Innate Dao Diagram appearing during the tribulation — this clearly means the Great Dao completely refuses to allow the Ancient Desolate Holy Body to break through!

Jiang Xuan's face was heavy as he stepped toward the Hualong Pool.

"You're courting death! Even if I exhaust everything I can barely make it stop!" Seeing Jiang Xuan actually walking toward the Hualong Pool, Jiang Taixu instantly appeared before him and said anxiously.

Jiang Xuan smiled brilliantly, his eyes without a trace of fear: "God King! I've waited for this day for a very long time!"

Jiang Taixu's body shook; looking at that fearless gaze, he seemed to see his younger self, and unconsciously let go, allowing Jiang Xuan to walk firmly into the Hualong Pool!
