Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts

Chapter 5436 Evil Execution Wind Moon Slash

The moment this divine light appeared, Long Chen’s soul froze, and an intense sensation of death enveloped him.

With no time to pull out Evilmoon, he shot back like a bolt of lightning, knowing that if he were to be struck by this divine light, he would definitely die.

As he retreated, Lei Linger surged forward, her lightning-clad form bypassing him just in time to intercept the divine light.

BOOM!

Lei Linger shattered into countless lightning runes upon impact, and the force of the detonation sent Long Chen tumbling through the air, blood spraying from his mouth as the relentless divine light caught up to him.

The divine light squeezed his body mercilessly, contorting it as his bones fractured under the immense pressure. It felt as though his entire body might collapse.

Just then, Tang Wan-er and the others woke up from their meditative state. They barely had time to register the divine light before it slammed into them. However, the divine runes surrounding their bodies mitigated much of the damage, leaving them shaken but not gravely injured.

Just then, another explosive sound rang out. Huo Linger’s flame lotus had passed through the divine light and struck the Silver Hair Void Crusher.

The Silver Hair Void Crusher had unleashed the power of the divine throne, channeling a fragment of Lord Brahma’s divine might. It was an unstoppable, indomitable force, capable of annihilating all existences beneath the Divine Emperor realm with ease.

However, his mastery over the divine throne was trash; he could only wield a trace of its immense power. That fragment, though, was devastating enough to overwhelm most foes.

Yet, Huo Linger’s attack carried a ferocity that could not be ignored. It embodied her full strength and the combined might of the Golden Crows, which were then compressed to the limit. On the other hand, the Silver Hair Void Crusher’s attack expanded outward like an all-encompassing wave, its power diffused across the battlefield. Huo Linger exploited this, focusing her attack into a single piercing strike.

As a result, though the Crusher’s divine energy had gravely wounded Lei Linger and Long Chen, it failed to halt Huo Linger’s assault.

The moment the flame lotus collided with the divine light, it twisted wildly, as though alive and struggling against an unyielding force. Space itself seemed to freeze, suspended in a fragile stillness. Then, with a violent rupture, the lotus pierced through the divine barrier and struck the Silver Hair Void Crusher directly.

BOOM!

Huo Linger and the lotus detonated in unison, unleashing a massive explosion that consumed the sky. A blazing mushroom cloud rose, tearing through the heavens as shards of shattered spacetime scattered like fragments of a broken mirror.

The Silver Hair Void Crusher staggered, a guttural gasp escaping him as he spat out a mouthful of blood. A gaping, bloodied wound could be seen in his chest, threatening to split him in two.

The Silver Hair Void Crusher’s expression was twisted with fury. Despite his vigilance and overwhelming power, he had been injured once again; it was an insult to his pride that he could not endure.

“Damn brat!” he roared, his voice quaking with fury as he shot toward Long Chen.

But before he could strike, a wave of chilling Sword Qi descended from above.

BOOM!

The Silver Hair Void Crusher raised his palm, shattering the Sword Qi in a single blow. When the dust settled, a graceful figure stood between him and Long Chen.

“Wan-er, move aside. Let me deal with him.” Long Chen’s voice was strained, blood dripping from his lips. Despite his injuries, he still had cards to play.

“No,” Tang Wan-er replied firmly, her gaze unwavering as she raised her sword. “This time, I’ll protect you. I’ve sworn to myself countless times that one day, I would stand before you, shielding you from the storm.”

“Wan-er... cough...” Long Chen’s voice faltered, followed by a violent cough that brought up more blood.

Xiao Yue and the others rushed to support him, and Tang Wan-er gestured for them to retreat. “Take him back. I’ll deal with this guy myself.”

The Silver Hair Void Crusher eyed Tang Wan-er with a contemptuous smile and said, “Since you want to die in front of him, I don’t mind fulfilling your wish.”

“Then we’ll see if you have that ability,” Tang Wan-er said coldly.

She swung her sword in a slow arc, and her manifestation changed, revealing a luminous full moon. Within the moon’s glow, the silhouette of a slender, otherworldly woman emerged. Though her features were obscured, those who could see her could feel her unmatched, divine grace.

The next moment, Tang Wan-er blazed with sacred light, and the air around her changed, becoming noble and aloof, like a goddess of the nine heavens. Sacred light surged around her, intertwining with the divine runes in her manifestation and pouring into her sword.

Long Chen’s eyes widened as he connected the dots, a shocking thought flashing through his mind. Could it be...?

Just then, Tang Wan-er pointed her sword at the heavens. After that, countless divine runes flowed out of her manifestation and into the sword.

“What?!”

The Silver Hair Void Crusher’s face darkened, his instincts screaming danger. With a flicker of intent, the Divine Commander Blade[1] materialized in his hand. As one of the eight great divine commanders, his connection to divine energy was unparalleled, and he instantly recognized the nature of Tang Wan-er’s attack—it was infused with true divine energy.

The full moon in Tang Wan-er’s manifestation was just like his divine throne. She was channeling divine energy directly from it, a feat he hadn’t anticipated.

Under normal circumstances, an attack like this would have posed little threat. However, the Silver Hair Void Crusher was far from his peak, his body ravaged by repeated injuries. The gaping wound in his chest remained open, and enduring another attack of this magnitude was beyond him.

Acting decisively, he lunged forward to intercept her.

Tang Wan-er’s voice resonated like a sacred hymn:

“Great Wind God, hear your disciple’s call. With your unmatched divine power, help your disciple slaughter evildoers! Evil Execution Wind Moon Slash!”

Her sword descended in a sweeping arc, and with it came a divine will so overwhelming that it seemed to split the very heavens.

The clash was cataclysmic. Her blade collided with the Silver Hair Void Crusher’s, and a violent eruption of divine energy followed.

In an instant, Long Chen formed a series of hand seals and opened one of his shut eyes. Just as he was about to unleash the Purgatory Eyes to drag Tang Wan-er out of the explosion radius, he saw a figure appear in front of her.

Ye Lingkong raised his hand and twisted the void, forming a giant shield that protected Tang Wan-er.

As the explosion subsided and the chaos settled, people saw the Silver Hair Void Crusher with his hair in disarray. His face was pale, and blood dripped steadily from his sword. His arm was riddled with countless cracks, barely holding together. Tang Wan-er’s attack had come dangerously close to shattering it completely.

Long Chen exhaled in relief upon seeing Ye Lingkong. “Brother, you finally arrived. Any later, and we’d have been done for.”

“Friend, let’s leave things here,” Ye Lingkong said as he eyed the bloody Silver Hair Void Crusher.

Seeing the stalk of grass perched between Ye Lingkong’s lips and his nonchalant behavior, the Silver Hair Void Crusher was overcome with fury.

“Who is your friend?! Die!” the Silver Hair Void Crusher roared, swinging the Divine Commander Blade at Ye Lingkong.
