Soul Emperor Martial God

On the spectator seats, the expressions of the Eight Great Commanders suddenly turned serious.

"These three youngsters are about to make an all-out strike," said Emperor Yee with a light chuckle.

"Judging by their momentum, they must be ready to use a Middle-level Heavenly Rank Martial Technique."

"That's right," Emperor Huang, Emperor Tong, and Wind Emperor nodded simultaneously, their faces showing a touch of pride.

Dugu Kuang, Lin Qing'er, and Feng Jueqing were indeed the young Heavenly Talents of their Kingdoms.

Golden Emperor smiled and clasped his hands together, saying, "These three are still so young and merely at the Half-step Earth Extreme Cultivation, yet they are already able to master Middle-level Heavenly Rank Martial Techniques."

"Such talent is indeed remarkable."

"For the Flame Dragon Continent to have three such Heavenly Talents, it is truly a blessing for our East Sea Fortress."

"Golden Emperor is too kind," Emperor Huang and the others quickly waved their hands, but smiles kept dancing on their faces.

Low-level Heavenly Martial Techniques required at least the Heavenly Element Realm to be wielded.

And as for Middle-level Heavenly Martial Techniques, they belong to the domain of Martial Artists above the Fourth Layer of Earth Extreme.

Heavenly Rank Martial Techniques, as the strongest techniques of the Flame Dragon Continent, even a single rank difference would yield a huge disparity.

Take the Martial Artists Xiao Yi had fought against.

Not even the likes of the Everday Palace Master and the Snow Blade Sect Master possessed Middle-level Heavenly Rank Martial Techniques, let alone used them.

It was only Martial Artists at the level of the Cold Ice Palace Master who owned and had used such techniques.

The fact that Dugu Kuang and the other two could use them with just Half-step Earth Extreme Cultivation was truly remarkable.

As the Golden Emperor spoke, he turned to look at Emperor Yee with a teasing smile, "I just don't know whether the Heavenly Talent of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect can also display a Middle-level Heavenly Rank Martial Technique."

"To my knowledge, the strongest technique in the inheritance of the Sky-splitting Sword Demon is just a Low-level Heavenly Rank Martial Technique."

"No," Emperor Yee had yet to speak when Ice Emperor shook his head.

"What my subordinates have told me is that Xiao Yi possesses an extremely powerful Martial Technique that even scared two Earth Extreme Late Stage Martial Artists."

"Its power is definitely above the Middle-level Heavenly Rank."

"Hmph," Golden Emperor snorted disdainfully, "That was only because he previously ingested the essence of the Endless Black Sea, exhibiting enough combat power."

"Even if he really has that powerful a technique, I suspect it's just some trickery."

Below, the 32 commanders and over ten thousand staff members from various fortresses were also watching the Martial Arts Arena intently.

If nothing unexpected occurred, this would be the last decisive battle of the third round.

On the Martial Arts Arena.

Since Dugu Kuang launched his first punch, his fists had continued to thunder out.

Each punch was more ferocious and astonishing than the last.

It wasn't until the eighth punch that he stopped, his face turning pale.

The sword cries from Feng Jueqing were also unceasing, like the deep abyss's wind, cold and overwhelming.

When he finally stopped swinging his sword, his arm had gone limp.

The green sea of fire from Lin Qing'er grew more turbulent.

When the fire sea stopped expanding, she too had turned pale.

Three terrifying attacks converged on Xiao Yi.

Such momentum was alarming, and even the barriers surrounding the Martial Arts Arena rippled from the impact.

Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes, inside the Blizzard Sword, a miniature blizzard had already formed.

He swung down the sword heavily.

A towering sword momentum clashed with the three terrifying attacks.

There was a loud, violent roar, deafening.

Countless attribute lights wreaked havoc across the field.

The dazzling radiance in the midst of the chaos was an assault that even ordinary Extreme Realm Martial Artists did not dare to touch.

When the collision of the two sides' attacks reached its zenith,

The roars reached their loudest.

Intense explosions covered dozens of miles around the Martial Arts Arena.

"What terrifying power," nearly all the Martial Artists in the spectator seats exclaimed.

"As expected of the top Heavenly Talents from various Kingdoms and Martial Arts Holy Lands, their combat power is so astonishing."

Seconds later.

Only after the explosions subsided did everyone finally see the situation on the Martial Arts Arena clearly.

On the Martial Arts Arena, chaos reigned.

The ground within a several miles radius had a thin layer shaved off.

It wasn't thick, but over such a vast area, it was enough to whip up dust and stones.

Amidst the swirling dust, only one person remained, Xiao Yi, with a trace of fresh blood at the corner of his mouth.

Before him, rivals like Dugu Kuang and Feng Jueqing, along with a host of Heavenly Talents like Tuoba Ao, were all blasted off the Martial Arts Arena, plummeting into the Endless Black Sea.

"Hiss," the Martial Artists in the spectator seats couldn't help but draw a sharp breath.

Alone he stood, directly confronting Dugu Kuang and three other towering Heavenly Talents, along with Tuoba Ao and five other Heavenly Talents, altogether eight of the most formidable, and defeated them.

Such power, how could it not shock people.

On the Martial Arts Arena, that slightly bedraggled but unbowed figure undoubtedly became the focus of everyone's attention.

Even the Eight Emperors in the highest seats were staring intently at Xiao Yi.

Others might not have seen clearly what happened in the midst of that explosion.

But the Eight Emperors, the Supreme Strong, had seen every second of the explosion in crystal clarity.

The Ice Emperor stared at Xiao Yi, incredulous, "How is this possible, is that kid a monster?"

"He actually withstood the Eight Extremes Sky Shattering technique delivered at the peak of Dugu Kuang's Extreme Realm Fifth Layer power with just minor injuries."

Emperor Huang's eyes were filled with astonishment, "In a mere instant, he struck three times with the sword, casting the Intermediate Heavenly Rank Martial Technique three times."

"Just how boundless is the Primordial Power inside that kid?"

Emperor Tong frowned, "Xiao Yi must have been hiding his true strength all along."

"His real combat power is definitely not limited to just the Fifth Layer of Earth Extreme."

Even as formidable as the Eight Emperors were, they were collectively stunned.

Down below on the Martial Arts Arena, Xiao Yi wiped the blood from his mouth and withdrew the Blizzard Sword.

The battle that had just transpired was exactly as the Commanders had described.

He had absorbed Dugu Kuang's Eight Extremes Sky Shattering, and in an instant had unleashed the Ice Sky Splitting Slash three times.

His goal, of course, was to defeat Dugu Kuang and the others in one fell swoop.

The Ice Sky Splitting Slash, something he had always used in the past, had long been second nature to him.

Naturally, he could easily perform it three times in a row.

The vast Qi Spring and Small World within him held much more Primordial Power than ordinary Martial Artists.

This allowed him to previously ignore many of the restrictions within the Heavenly Rank Martial Techniques.

Of course, the Ice Sky Splitting Slash he executed with weaker cultivation in the past, compared to the one unleashed with the power of the Peak of the Extreme Realm Fifth Layer now,

held incomparably different powers.

Another point, earlier on, while overpowering Dugu Kuang and the others, he had already used Asura Transformation, fully stepping into the realm of Extreme strength with his physical prowess.

This was also the reason why he could easily overpower Dugu Kuang and the others before, with much increased strength.

Additionally, when he had earlier withstood Dugu Kuang's Eight Extremes Sky Shattering, he had almost invoked all of the Asura Power within his body to amplify his physical strength.

This was how he managed to end up with only minor injuries.

Originally, he possessed 80 drops of Asura Power in his body, now most of it had been exhausted.

It must be said, while the Asura Battle Body continued to be cultivated, the Asura Power was also being refined.

Indeed, a single drop of Asura Power now may well be more potent than twenty drops were before.

Of course, changes in physical strength are difficult to discern.

This was also why the Eight Emperors, upon seeing Xiao Yi withstand Dugu Kuang's technique with only minor injuries, speculated that Xiao Yi had concealed his true strength.

In their view, Xiao Yi's actual strength was far beyond the Peak of the Extreme Realm Fifth Layer, naturally enabling him to easily block Dugu Kuang's technique.

Bang… Bang… Bang…

Just then, within the Endless Black Sea, eight booming sounds echoed.

Eight figures soared from the sea surface, landing back onto the Martial Arts Arena; it was Dugu Kuang and his group.

At this moment, the eight were a sight of deflation and carried considerable injuries.

"We are defeated," Dugu Kuang, who was always so arrogant, showed an unprecedented dejected expression.

But that trace of despondency quickly turned into a smile and a fighting spirit.

"Xiao Yi, wait for it, one day we will fight fairly again, and I will defeat you."

"I'll be waiting," Xiao Yi said with a light smile.

...

The third update.
