Crack—
Almost in the first exchange, Qiong Zhu's defenses were shattered. His expression changed drastically with horror, never expecting his opponent to be so powerful that his defenses were utterly fragile.
However, he also fiercely gathered all his divine power, brandishing his battle weapon to strike, clashing with the other.
Qian Xun swung his terrifying fist, sweeping up golden radiance as deep and vast as an abyss and sea, colliding with Qiong Zhu's battle weapon.
With a deafening boom, his fist was indestructible and imperishable. Qiong Zhu's Dao weapon sword-wings completely shattered, equally fragile.
That fist broke through everything, directly smashing into Qiong Zhu's head, instantly exploding it into a thousand blossoming peach flowers.
Qiong Zhu's divine soul also crumbled, on the verge of annihilation. In his fleeting moment of lingering consciousness, he distinctly heard Qian Xun's icy words: "Even if I'm looking for trouble with that heartless man, it's not something a mere alien mongrel like you can provoke, nor could I ever be friends with alien mongrels like you. For you alien mongrels, I kill every single one I see!"
Boom—
Qiong Zhu was utterly annihilated. No matter how powerful he was, he was no match for War Saint Qian Xun, slain within two exchanges. Blood radiance soared to the heavens, and his divine soul was also pulverized.
Strong! Too strong!
Everyone's hearts trembled. Was this the manifestation of the invincible War Saint's peerless combat power? A dignified young generation's supreme couldn't even last two rounds. He was probably not much weaker than the Yuanchu Imperial Son or the Battle Saint King.
Boom—
Simultaneously, within the 49th Pass, an aura at the Great Power level surged. It was the Great Commander guarding this pass, also a Great Power, and an extraordinary one at that. Usually acting on behalf of the City Lord of Jingtian to guard the pass, he naturally had to mete out punishment upon discovering someone daring to violate the ancient pass's rules by attacking.
However, War Saint Qian Xun just cast a cold glance and then directly tore through the void to leave, his speed incredibly fast. In the blink of an eye, he had left the 49th Pass, entered the Birth Emperor Star, and vanished.
The Great Commander could only watch all this indifferently. Even he could not capture this War Saint Qian Xun.
If not for the City Lord of Jingtian presiding over this pass, this War Saint Qian Xun would likely dare to confront the Trial Ancient Pass itself.
War Saint Qian Xun tore through the void and departed, leaving the 49th Pass and a crowd of stunned powerhouses. It took a long time for them to react, and then astonishing news began to spread.
The War Saint had returned, seeking a battle with the Battle Saint King.
Undoubtedly, this was immensely shocking, for both the Battle Saint King and War Saint Qian Xun were inheritors of the Battle Saint Lineage.
Since ancient times, the inheritors of the Battle Saint Lineage had all been exceptionally brilliant individuals, producing many invincible figures.
The most renowned and celebrated were naturally the first-generation Battle Saint Ancestor and the second-generation Sovereign of Formlessness.
Now, this generation's Battle Saint King was similarly monstrously talented. On the Ancient Path, he was hailed as the second Sovereign of Formlessness, and moreover, a Chaos young generation's supreme, invincible within the same realm, capable of battling the Yuanchu Imperial Son who mastered time secret arts without defeat.
All of this was more than enough proof; he was destined to remain invincible.
On the other side, War Saint Qian Xun was also an invincible ruler dominating the Ultimate Ancient Path, hailed as a future overlord of the Ancient Path, for he had already demonstrated invincible potential. The world believed that, given time, he would inevitably become another overlord of the Ancient Path.
Now, the only difference was a matter of time.
Now that the two Battle Saints were about to engage in a great battle, no one knew how intense it would be. It probably wouldn't be inferior to the previous duel between the Battle Saint King and the Yuanchu Imperial Son, and might even be more ferocious.
The masses eagerly anticipated it, countless people hoping to witness the scenes of the two Battle Saints clashing.
Simultaneously, just outside the Birth Emperor Star, a spatial wormhole appeared in a region of the Star Sky, from which three fearsome figures emerged.
Each one circulated an imperishable aura, and more importantly, their blood energy was boundless, rumbling with long resonance. It seemed as if terrifying potential was awakening within them, as if supreme emperors were slumbering within their bodies, making hearts tremble with awe.
Undoubtedly, these three were invincible Imperial Sons possessing Supreme One bloodlines. Now they had returned, their bodies wreathed in sinister black light, unmistakably the aura of the Alien Race's Ancient Universe.
The three Alien Race Imperial Sons had returned, looking down from a high vantage point upon the Birth Emperor Star, their expressions indifferent.
"Is this the legendary Birth Emperor Star? It truly is extraordinary."
"This Ancient Universe... back then, the five emperors of our realm wanted to descend, but were unfortunately stopped. The emperors were greatly enraged."
"Correct. We've finally returned from that Ancient Path. This time, we cannot fail. It concerns the grand plan of our realm's universe."
"This time, even if there are Ancient Monarchs blocking the way, they will surely die."
The three Alien Race Imperial Sons all had cold, stern expressions, exuding a thick aura of conspiracy.
"I've heard that the Battle Saint King is also on the Birth Emperor Star. But that's fine; we can deal with him along the way."
"An inheritor of the Battle Saint Lineage, a Chaos young generation's supreme, not inferior to us, with immense potential, hailed as the second Sovereign of Formlessness. But it's also a pity. He can only blame himself for being an inheritor of the Battle Saint Lineage. He must die without a doubt. This time, we will surely take his head and finish him."
"It's not yet time to expose ourselves too early. Wait until the 50th Pass appears, capture the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body. Although the Battle Saint King's potential is fearsome, he is only secondary."
"Moreover, both Battle Saints have appeared on the Birth Emperor Star. I've heard that Qian Xun has a great grudge with the Battle Saint King. Perhaps we can watch them kill each other. Best if they both perish together, saving us some effort."
The three Alien Race Imperial Sons conversed briefly, then quickly vanished, infiltrating the Birth Emperor Star.
Elsewhere, also within the vast depths of the Star Sky, a majestic and towering ancient hall appeared, wreathed in dark mist, hidden within.
Dark divine chains streaked across the sky, among which flowed the aura of an Ancient Monarch. It was unmistakably a powerhouse from the Soul-Restraining Hall, now appearing.
Among them was even the Hall Master of the Soul-Restraining Hall at the Ancient Monarch level, gazing from afar at the Birth Emperor Star. A voice emanated from within: "The Great Emperor Reincarnation Body... it's about to emerge. Once we seize the Emperor's Foundation, we can become emperor and claim the throne, no longer needing that Ten Thousand Epochs Grand Plan."
"However, the Battle Saint King is also on the Birth Emperor Star. While capturing the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body, we must also capture the Battle Saint King to carry out the Ten Thousand Epochs Grand Plan. Killing two birds with one stone, one might say."
As the words fell, the fearsome main hall of the Soul-Restraining Hall vanished into the dark, gloomy cosmic Star Sky, disappearing...
In a distant star domain, a streak of light was rapidly streaking across the sky at an astonishing speed.
This streak of light seemed to transcend the boundaries of time and space, reaching an extreme speed. In the blink of an eye, it surpassed star domain after star domain, traversing the dark, cold, and eternal cosmic Star Sky.
Faintly visible, it was not one person, but two.
And they were a pair of sisters.
Everyone, feel free to guess who this pair of sisters might be. Hehe!
