“Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art!”

Wang Chong lunged forward, his hand opening like the talons of an eagle. At the same time, gold and red manifestations of the sun and moon emerged from his shoulders and enveloped Fumeng Lingcha.

Hwooo! A fierce gale stirred to life, and Wang Chong’s body began to exert an immense pull that shook the Stellar Energy within Fumeng Lingcha and began to pull it out of his body.

“Not good!”

Fumeng Lingcha was alarmed by this sight, never imagining that Wang Chong would be so strong. Instead of waiting around, he had attacked first, and his first blow had not been holding back in the slightest.

“Wang Chong, you dare!”

Neeeigh! Fumeng Lingcha’s stallion failed to hold, blood bursting from its body as it thudded to the ground.

Fumeng Lingcha paled. Wang Chong was trying to kill him!

Boom!

With no time to think, Fumeng Lingcha turned his saber around and unleashed a band of saber energy that swept toward Wang Chong as quickly as lightning.

A terrible howl like that of countless savage beasts erupted from behind Fumeng Lingcha. Light and shadow converged and space twisted, and in the blink of an eye, a massive desert appeared.

In the middle of this vast desert were countless savage monsters. These monsters were gray all over and covered in scales, and they moved with incredible agility. And above these monsters was a gigantic monster with wings, the body of a dragon, and the tail of a beast.

The Underworld Ya Elephant!

Fumeng Lingcha was a Hu and had spent more than half of his life guarding the Western Regions. The Western Regions had a culture completely different from the Central Plains. The Underworld Ya Elephant was an ancient beast spoken of in the legends of the Western Regions, the god of all beasts.

According to these legends, long ago, there was a desert here that was inhabited by countless savage sand beasts. Together with their god, the Great Ya Elephant, they guarded this desert.

It was also said that somewhere in the desert was a passage to the underworld, and that the Underworld Ya Elephant was the controller of death, the god of the underworld. Thus, in earlier times, the nobles of the Western Regions would have statues of the Underworld Ya Elephant as the guardian beasts for their graves.

(TN: The Ya, 猰, is an ancient beast first described in the ‘Classic of Mountains and Seas’. There are two descriptions of it, one that it has a dragon body and a human face, and the other that it has a dragon head. In both descriptions, it is described as a man-eater.)

The art being used was derived from this legendary beast. It was one of the three ancient God Arts of the Western Regions, and the most powerful art ever learned by the generations of Protector-Generals who oversaw the Western Regions.

As Fumeng Lingcha had a poor relationship with Gao Xianzhi, the transmission of this art had come to an end, since Fumeng Lingcha had not taught it to Gao Xianzhi.

Owwww!

There was a shrill wail, and the desert behind Fumeng Lingcha suddenly exploded to one hundred times in size, rising up to crush Wang Chong. The Underworld Ya Elephant fiercely swung its dragon tail and then lunged up at Wang Chong, its body seething with pure deathly energy.

“Die!”

Fumeng Lingcha’s face had twisted into a savage visage. He had spent every moment of those days and nights in the imperial prison cursing Wang Chong’s name, and it was this hatred and desire for revenge that had hardened Fumeng Lingcha’s resolve, allowing him to finally cultivate that supreme Underworld God energy of the Underworld Ya Elephant Art that he had always failed at.

This was a terrifying energy that transcended death. No energy could contend against the power of the Underworld God, not even Great Generals!

Fumeng Lingcha had dared to challenge Wang Chong precisely because of this supreme Underworld God energy.

Bang! Bang!

At the precise moment Fumeng Lingcha lunged forward, to his left and right, two of his ‘subordinates’ lunged forward. These men had mixed in with Fumeng Lingcha’s actual subordinates, even tumbling together with the rest when Wang Chong upset their horses.

But when they attacked, they revealed astonishing levels of cultivation.

A few moments ago, they had been about the same as the others, but a moment later, their energy soared.

Clang!

As these two lunged forward, black energy seethed off their bodies and shockingly coalesced into two thick chains. The chains writhed like pythons as they howled through the air and attempted to wrap around Wang Chong.

“Who are these people?”

Cries of alarm came from all around as the Big Dipper Army officers backed away in the face of this pressure. Shock was visible in their eyes as they stared at the two men.

Fumeng Lingcha was already extremely strong, but to think that he would have such powerful experts among his subordinates...! They didn’t seem much weaker than Fumeng Lingcha, and most astonishing was that completely alien energy, dark and sinister.

“Hmph, finally made your move?”

Wang Chong sneered, completely unmoved by this development. His Psychic Energy was five times that of experts of the same level, and even though these two had tried their utmost to conceal their power, Wang Chong had still noticed them the moment they appeared, these ‘weak’ ‘Qixi generals’.

“Iron Cloak Art!”

Wang Chong’s dantian trembled, and his Subtle realm golden Stellar Energy immediately compressed into a golden cloak which he tossed at the black chain being thrown by the expert on the left.

“Heavenly Mandate Battle Armor!”

Wang Chong also summoned the Heavenly Mandate Battle Armor from the Stone of Destiny, and in a flash of light, the noble and resplendent suit of armor stepped onto the stage once more after a long absence. But this time, Wang Chong threw it over at the black chain coming on his right.

Bang!

These two dark chains were extremely strange. The Subtle realm ‘Iron Cloak’ almost instantly exploded on impact with the left chain, and the Heavenly Mandate Battle Armor began to groan after the chain on the right wrapped around it, a clear mark being left on that nigh invincible suit of armor.

Such strength made one’s blood run cold!

“Not good!”

But surprisingly, those two ‘subordinates’ of Fumeng Lingcha’s were not at all happy to see the Iron Cloak blown to pieces and the Heavenly Mandate Battle Armor squeezed. Rather, their hearts sank like stones while their faces scowled.

Wang Chong’s reaction was too fast!

Those strange chains were specifically meant to seal Wang Chong’s domineering Subtle realm power, but they had been stopped by Wang Chong’s Iron Cloak and Heavenly Mandate Battle Armor.

Their original plan had been to take advantage of Fumeng Lingcha’s sudden assault to catch Wang Chong off guard.

They had never expected Wang Chong to be so sharp. His swift reaction had completely upset their plans.

“Kill him!”

The two stomped on the ground and suddenly changed directions, hoping to use this abrupt movement to get another attempt at sealing Wang Chong, but they were too late.

“Hmph, still want to try? Get out of here!”

Wang Chong coldly smiled. No one had ever been allowed to change plans right in front of his face or continue attacking after their scheme had been exposed. These two were too naive!

Bang!

Wang Chong’s back exploded with golden light as he used the Supreme and Infinite Origin Immortal Art. Rumble! A grandiose pavilion straight out of a fairyland manifested in the air, its resplendence stunning all the Big Dipper soldiers. The backdrop of this pavilion made Wang Chong seem even more powerful and majestic, his body exuding the unstoppable aura of a god looking down from the heavens.

Rumble! Space trembled, and before Fumeng Lingcha could even react, his terrifying Underworld God energy dissipated like mud in the ocean, devoured by Wang Chong’s Trayastrimsa Heaven. Right after that, Fumeng Lingcha’s two ‘subordinates’ also felt their energy vanishing into the Trayastrimsa Heaven.

“What?!”

The three of them all paled in fright.

But before they could do anything, Wang Chong began his counterattack. Their shocked eyes beheld the golden light behind Wang Chong surging toward them in a great wave.

“Go, Origin Lance!”

There was a thunderous explosion as Fumeng Lingcha’s Underworld Ya Elephant God Art exploded back toward him. After being devoured by the Origin Immortal Art and bolstered with Origin Immortal energy, it had come hurtling back together with the Underworld God energy.

Such was the vastness of this energy heading toward Fumeng Lingcha that he didn’t have the space to dodge.

“This is impossible!”

Fumeng Lingcha’s eyes flew open in disbelief as the vast wave of Underworld God energy hurtled toward him, his hard and stubborn face having turned ghastly white long ago.

At this moment, not even if Geshu Han revived and appeared right in front of his face could he be more shocked.

Underworld God energy was a supreme energy, and as far as Fumeng Lingcha knew, unbeatable. It should have been impossible for it to be absorbed, much less returned back to the user.

As these thoughts flew through his mind, boom! Fumeng Lingcha went flying through the air like a ragdoll and crashed to the ground.
