Chapter 6708 Xue Ying’s Power
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Three days passed.
The Starry River Legion moved constantly, changing formations as they slaughtered wave after wave of outsider devils.
Through nonstop combat, their mastery of formations advanced at a startling pace. Even when they deliberately allowed their formations to collapse, they could restore them almost instantly.
Occasionally, Long Chen would single out key members and remove them from their positions, instructing them to pretend they had fallen. He wanted to see what the others would do.
At first, the formations grew messy again. Yet before long, someone else would step forward, fill the vacancy, and stabilize the formation.
For three days straight, they fought while deliberately suppressing their strength, using battle to temper their coordination. As a result, their teamwork had reached a high level.
By the third day, the Starry River Legion had sharpened into a blade. Even while holding back, they still exuded overwhelming power.
During this period, they encountered no other existences like the Dark Divine General. Clearly, this was the outsider devil race’s territory, and they would have taken all treasures around here. If they were unable to take the treasures, they would destroy them so that others couldn’t get them.
The corpse of the Dark Divine General had only been there because they couldn’t take it away or break it.
Over these same three days, Cang Lu had absorbed a huge amount of energy and broke through to the fourth Heavenstage, becoming a mid-stage Sovereign Lord.
This one breakthrough caused Cang Lu’s aura to soar severalfold. Numerous core runes awakened within him.
The curse energy he had absorbed was evenly divided between himself and the Bloodfiend Halberd. Originally, Cang Lu had instinctively tried to refine it all alone, but Long Chen forcibly redirected half to the halberd.
With both refining the energy simultaneously, the process became far more efficient. Cang Lu no longer needed seclusion. He could refine curse energy while simultaneously absorbing Bloodfiend Qi.
From him, Long Chen could sense the laws of the primal chaos era. They were ancient and overwhelmingly oppressive.
Finally, Long Chen understood why someone like the Heavenly Constellation Ancestor would risk his life to tear down his heaven-earth law manifestation and recreate it.
Based on Cang Lu’s recovery alone, once he advanced to Divine Sovereign, ordinary Divine Sovereigns of this era would be no more than ants before him.
Without undergoing creation through destruction, there was no way to contend with an existence of this level. Judging by Cang Lu’s law fluctuations, even an acquired Divine Sovereign who had undergone such a rebirth would still be unable to challenge him.
The primal chaos era’s Divine Sovereigns were just too powerful, suffocatingly so. They had been born at the right time.
In contrast, Divine Sovereigns of the current era were tragic figures. They had missed the ancient era, and with the arrival of the new era, their realms were already fixed, unblessed by its laws.
Abandoned by two eras, they could only gamble on creation through destruction to seize a fragment of the new era’s blessings. But clearly, that had a limited effect.
Once the disciples of the new area became Divine Sovereigns, even acquired Divine Sovereigns who had undergone creation through destruction would be left in the dust. Although it was hard to accept, this was reality.
Even the new era’s geniuses would struggle to rival the true monsters of the primal chaos era, let alone ordinary experts.
From the Dark Divine General, Cang Lu, Rui Yue, and others, Long Chen knew he had seen only a sliver of that era’s true power. He had to get stronger.
As Cang Lu’s realm rose, his control over his aura grew as well. Aside from the moment of breakthroughs, his aura was practically imperceptible.
Everyone else—including the outsider devils—remained at the early Sovereign Lord realm. In that sense, this was still a fair fight between those in the same realm.
The battle continued.
More outsider devils poured in. Their strength increased steadily, and powerful leaders started to appear among them.
These leaders were not only capable of speech but also of command. They were leading the devil creatures into proper formations.
More importantly, the devil’s side seemed to have sensed something amiss. Their encirclement of the Starry River Legion tightened with every passing moment.
BOOM!
All of a sudden, the void exploded.
A giant figure descended like a meteorite, smashing into the middle of the Starry River Legion.
Hundreds of Starry River warriors joined forces to block the impact, only to be sent flying. The ground split apart as a giant devil wielding a massive flying mace emerged out of the dust.
This giant devil creature was nearly human in shape—no tail or scales, only a pair of fangs protruding from its mouth.
The moment it roared, devil qi flooded the heavens as its table-sized mace smashed downward.
At last, a truly formidable devil had appeared.
According to the Starry River Palace’s classifications, the outsider devils they were fighting now would be considered inner palace disciples. This giant devil, however, was qualified for the Heaven Rankings.
For such an existence to suddenly appear showed that the outsider devils had grown wary of the Starry River Legion. Because they had killed so many devils, the giant devil came out to test them.
Qu Yingying was delighted and thought that she could finally join in, but she got happy too early.
“Xue Ying,” Long Chen said calmly, glancing at her.
BOOM!
The giant flying mace slammed into an astral hand and came to a stop. The resulting qi waves blew back the dust, revealing Xue Ying’s tall and slender figure.
Xue Ying had stopped that world-shattering mace with a single hand, and the impact sent the giant devil staggering back several steps.
“Damn, I knew something was fishy! You damn nine star heirs! Don’t even think about leaving here alive!” roared the giant devil.
The giant devil charged at Xue Ying with such force that the ground beneath its feet exploded.
“It seems they have grown suspicious. In that case, there’s no need to keep acting. Slaughter them all!” Long Chen commanded.
He had already deduced that the outsider devils’ higher-ups were watching. This giant devil was merely a probe.
If it died, they would immediately send out their true elites to slaughter the Starry River Legion. Hence, there was no need to hold back anymore.
After all, the Starry River Legion’s training was complete, and they knew the battle formations by heart. It was time to fight for real.
“Kill!”
The Starry River warriors howled and attacked like tigers. Originally, they were surrounded, but they quickly became the ones surrounding the enemies.
“Do you really think you can kill me?!” the giant devil roared.
A black flame ignited on the giant devil’s forehead, and its aura erupted violently. Strange runes ignited on its flying mace as it wildly charged at the frail-looking Xue Ying.
Xue Ying slowly closed her eyes. When she opened them, a dragon-shaped star diagram appeared in her pupils.
Eight stars appeared behind her. Unlike before, each star now had a dragon coiled around it.
Starlight filled the sky, and a supreme divine might gushed out.
Xue Ying slowly raised her hand, her fingers like a dragon claw snatching the giant mace.
“Mad Dragon Void Ripping Claw!” shouted Xue Ying.
BOOM!
In front of countless shocked gazes, the flying mace shattered in Xue Ying’s hand. A claw-image then continued to strike that giant devil’s head.
Blood flew through the air as the giant devil’s head was crushed like a watermelon.
