Chapter 514: Chapter 512: Infinite Sea, Chen Xuanji

"The strength of these three is formidable!"

Xu Yang also opened his eyes to look.

The young man in the lead wore embroidered robes, exuding an extraordinary aura!

His cultivation had reached High-tier True Monarch, faintly giving Xu Yang a sense of danger.

To have such a feeling—absolutely not ordinary!

At his side were a middle-aged man and an old man. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Both possessed True Monarch Perfection cultivation.

They looked like the young man’s bodyguards.

"Chen Xuanji!"

"Hiss—!"

An outcry erupted, making everyone gasp in shock.

"He is Chen Xuanji?"

Xu Yang scrutinized the youth in doubt and surprise. Thinking of that sense of danger from him, he couldn’t help but feel at ease.

If it was him, then it all made sense.

Although he only had the cultivation of High-tier True Monarch.

Chen Xuanji, Star Nebula Infinite Sea’s number one prodigy, second on the Celestial Pride List!

Only beneath Xiao Ming!

Compared to the Celestial Pride List Xu Yang saw when he first arrived at the Spirit Realm, the cultivations of the talents on that list had all undergone earth-shattering change.

"Now things are really troublesome."

"All three of them are exceptionally strong."

"If they want to snatch the Celestial Essence Spirit Stars, who would dare disobey?"

"Just one might not even satisfy a single one of them!"

...

The crowd’s expressions darkened, all lost in tangled thoughts.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!!

The three stepped into the hall. Feeling the might of each Celestial Essence Spirit Star, their faces all showed fiery excitement.

"Who are the Daqian Martial Artists?"

Chen Xuanji swept his gaze around, giving a cold, sinister smile.

Instantly, all eyes turned toward Yie Vajra, Gon Lang, and their companion.

The three’s faces immediately grew particularly grim.

They were no longer ignorant newcomers; of course they understood the weight behind the name ’Chen Xuanji.’

The others all looked delighted.

If Chen Xuanji targeted Daqian—just the three of them—maybe everyone else could avoid disaster.

Chen Xuanji sneered coldly: "You Daqian trash sure have some luck."

"But that ends here!"

"Kill them!"

"Chen Xuanji, you’re pushing us too far!" Yie Vajra bellowed in fury.

The words just fell when Chen Xuanji’s two bodyguards vanished on the spot.

Boom!

The two True Monarch Perfection experts struck simultaneously.

One’s Divine Technique transformed into a savage, peerless beast, overwhelming with a terrifying killing aura and surging malevolence.

The other’s Divine Weapon soared sharply toward the heavens, unleashing a shroud of razor-sharp ripples over the entire Spirit Star Space.

Xu Yang’s face changed slightly. These two were much stronger than Men Qianjun from before.

If they combined forces, even if Xu Yang revealed all his power, it might not be so easy.

Top-tier experts among True Monarch Perfection.

But to stand by and watch Yie Vajra and Yang Ziye be killed...

Xu Yang took a deep breath, already preparing to step in.

Just then—

Yie Vajra and the other two simultaneously threw out Spirit Talismans.

Whoosh!

Golden radiance erupted, boiling like waves, transforming into shields circling each of them.

Bam bam!

Clang!

The savage beast shrieked, the Divine Weapon trembled.

Yet, the shields held firm against the assault!

"This is... the power of Shenxiao!"

The pupils of both experts shrank, their faces instantly turning ugly.

Chen Xuanji’s expression darkened as well.

Three shields, each radiating a heart-pounding aura of Shenxiao.

"The Daqian Emperor spares no expense."

Chen Xuanji muttered coldly under his breath.

To carry such life-preserving items showed that these three held no small status in Daqian.

But Chen Xuanji had no choice but to give up his killing intent!

He simply could not break the shields.

"Ignore them. Focus on cultivation—absorb and leave as soon as possible." Gon Lang barked, sitting down cross-legged, disregarding everything around him.

Yie Vajra and Yang Ziye followed suit!

For a moment, those who had just been happy were once again filled with anxiety.

Chen Xuanji gave them a cold glance, then suddenly looked around.

His two bodyguards took the hint, pointing to several people on one side, saying, "You lot, get lost!"

On that side, there were eight people.

Eight Celestial Essence Spirit Stars!

Xu Yang was right there among them!

"How outrageous!"

"Damn it, why am I so unlucky?"

"So many people, and they chose me!"

"Chen Xuanji, you bastard!"

Several faces turned pale, only daring to curse in their hearts, not daring show it at all.

Swoosh swoosh!!

In the blink of an eye, several people hastily got up and left in a panic.

Chen Xuanji’s infamy, along with the strength of his two bodyguards, was several times more intimidating than even Xu Yang.

In just a moment, only Xu Yang remained among the eight.

He sat unmoved as a mountain!

The crowd looked on with subtle expressions.

He even dared defy Chen Xuanji’s will?

"That guy’s doomed. As strong as he is, he’s absolutely no match for those two, and Chen Xuanji’s probably at True Monarch Perfection too."

"Who is this man? He’s got guts."

"He’s still not leaving?"

Chen Xuanji and his two men all fixed their gaze on Xu Yang.

The old man narrowed his eyes coldly: "Won’t drink the toast? You’ll taste the penalty!"

Before the words landed, his figure flickered, turning into black smoke and darting forward in an instant.

Clang!

The old man curled his palm around a blade, hacking down with a thunderous slash!

Bam!

A deafening roar exploded by everyone’s ears, wild shockwaves carrying streaks of chaotic blade energy everywhere.

The old man’s face abruptly shifted—his slash had been caught squarely by a large hand, unable to press down an inch further.

"Impossible!"

A mere High-tier True Monarch, blocking his blade barehanded?

This was simply inconceivable!

"Interesting." The old man’s eyes flashed fiercely, his blade surged in force, wild power doubling.

"Kneel for me!"

His furious howl thundered through the depths of the river.

Everyone stared, eyes wide and unmoving.

Would he kneel?

Xu Yang did not kneel. In that explosive instant, he stood straight like a javelin and swept the blade aside with a palm strike.

At once, a crimson blood blade appeared in his hand.

"Heaven-Splitting Divine Blade!"

Clang!

The two blades clashed, countless currents of blade energy exploding outward.

Like mountains crashing and tsunamis colliding—catastrophe incarnate!

The old man never expected Xu Yang’s true strength to be so overwhelming. Caught off guard, with a muffled grunt, he staggered back several steps.

An instant uproar swept across the hall!

This sight even made Chen Xuanji raise his brows, full of astonishment.

"This kid is that strong?"

The other bodyguard cried out in shock, response swift—stepping up to the old man’s side in an instant.

"Let’s go together!"

One look and the two attacked in unison.

No one noticed Gon Lang and his companions, eyes wide in disbelief, staring at the crimson blood blade.

As Daqian Martial Artists, they knew this Divine Weapon all too well.

Only one man could wield it!

Xu Yang!

Yang Ziye clutched her mouth in shock, swallowing the two words on the tip of her tongue!

"Boy, with Young Lord Xuanji here, you dare defy our Star Nebula Infinite Sea? You’ve got guts."

"But having guts means you’ll fall here!"

Boom!

The two experts—one old, one middle-aged—unleashed their full power, momentum flooding out like a rising tide.

The overwhelming might of top True Monarch Perfection blazed like a prehistoric volcano erupting, sweeping across hundreds of feet.

A shriek from a savage beast, a terrifying eruption—earth-shaking, sky-shattering.

A tide of carnage surged, drowning Xu Yang utterly!

Everyone was struck dumb, hearts pounding; even the aftershocks of the light left them numb with fear. They could never endure such an attack head-on—let alone Xu Yang, who faced it directly.

"This time, it should be over."

"After all, he’s only High-tier True Monarch. No matter how strong, he couldn’t withstand it!"

"Forcing two Star Nebula Infinite Sea experts to go all out to suppress him—he can already be proud."
