Chapter 788: Killing Techniques Beneath the Heaven’s Retribution
The mighty Heaven’s Retribution instantly enveloped the sky. The horrifying might made the Transcendent Realm experts’ faces pale. They had just experienced Heaven’s Retribution. Naturally, they were aware that this Heaven’s Retribution belonged to that of a Transcendent Realm. Everyone’s faces became extremely pale.
For Ye Xiwen, these Heaven’s Retribution was totally capable of killing him when things got too dangerous. However, the opponent only had a ten percent chance of surviving, especially when undergoing the Transcendent Realm’s Heaven’s Retribution. It was the most horrifying Heaven’s Retribution they had ever witnessed.
Out of ten Half-step Transcendent Late Realm, nine of them had perished by the Transcendent Realm Heaven’s Retribution. The ten percent chance of survival made their faces pale upon thinking about it.
The terrifying Heaven’s Retribution was the reason why the number of Transcendent Realm experts was so scarce.
However, no matter what they were thinking about, Heaven’s Retribution still descended. The rolling clouds were announcing the arrival of the majestic Heaven’s Retribution.
It was too late for them to leave now. They realized that Heaven’s Retribution had already locked on them. Unless if Heaven’s Retribution was over, they couldn’t escape no matter where they went.
Standing within the center of Heaven’s Retribution, Ye Xiwen took a deep breath. This was the first time he was experiencing a Transcendent Realm’s Heaven’s Retribution. In fact, this was the first time he challenging Heaven’s Retribution using the Star Beast Avatar. Ye Xiwen wasn’t aware of what kind of retribution would descend upon him.
Ye Xiwen smiled as he looked at the four people’s faces that were extremely pale. His smile was extremely bright. They were tricked into being forced to undergo Heaven’s Retribution. He was confident that they wanted to scold him.
Currently, the True Martial School was experiencing an uproar. No one expected Ye Xiwen to use such a way to fight against his enemies. Isn’t this a suicidal attack?
“I never expected Ye Xiwen to have reached the phase of pa.s.sing the Transcendent Realm’s Heaven’s Retribution. If we let him undergo the retribution in a quiet place, our school might have an addition of another Transcendent Realm expert. And yet, he’s going to undergo it during a battle. A Transcendent Realm’s Heaven’s Retribution is already scary enough. In such a situation, it only means death!”
“Indeed. I never expected Ye Xiwen’s talents to be so outstanding. He had just entered our school for a hundred years and already managed to accomplish such achievements. He can be dubbed as the number one prodigy of the school in the past tens of thousands of years. No, it’s too much of a loss if he dies here. When the time calls for it, we have to protect him no matter what the situation was!”
“Junior brother is too rash. Does he plan to perish together with them using Heaven’s Retribution?” said Bai Jiansong as he gritted his teeth, filled with hate. Of course, the hatred wasn’t directed towards Ye Xiwen. It was for the extraterrestrial overlords. “If junior brother experiences any casualties, I won’t let them live a peaceful life!”
He remembered it deeply within his heart. His talents were considered decent. With enough time, he would be able to reach the Transcendent Realm. When the time comes, he would have the capability of taking revenge.
“I agree!” Liu Yanlan by his side nodded coldly. Her heart was also boiling in anger. Only, she wasn’t proficient in displaying her emotions.
Currently, Ye Feng and Ye Ruxue were all panicking. Their spiritual senses were unable to reach such a remote area. They could only listen to the description of others. When they heard of the situation, their face became ashen. Undergoing Heaven’s Retribution while being in combat. Isn’t that just seeking death?
Undergoing Heaven’s Retribution was always a dangerous matter. Preparations had to be complete to entice Heaven’s Retribution. They weren’t certain as to what would happen.
Upon the stage, Huang Wuji’s face was still expressionless. However, the flickering in his eyes displayed the mess of emotions he was experiencing within his heart. He knew that Ye Xiwen stood out purely for him. Otherwise, he didn’t have to face such a risk.
Now, Ye Xiwen only needed a little more effort to ascend to the Transcendent Realm. If today’s matters didn’t happen, he could wait for preparations to complete before undergoing Heaven’s Retribution. However, from Huang Wuji’s perspective, undergoing the retribution so rashly would undoubtedly cost his life. Ye Xiwen was sacrificing himself for his sake.
That can’t happen! When the critical time arrives, I can’t ignore him even with my School Master position!
Contradictory to the True Martial School’s worrisome crowd, the extraterrestrial overlords were comparatively more relaxed.
“Naive! Does he think that he can launch an internecine attack on four Transcendent Realms with such a method? Truly naive!”
“Indeed. What does he think Transcendent Realm experts are? How can such a method kill them?”
“Shameless, truly shameless! How could he use such a method! However, he definitely would fail!”
Ye Xiwen laughed. Utilizing Heaven’s Retribution to kill them? Nope! Ye Xiwen had never thought of using that method. In truth, it was impossible as well. Although Heaven’s Retribution was horrifying, these Transcendent Realm experts weren’t that easy to deal with. They would never be killed so easily. Of course, if they weren’t in the Transcendent Realm, they would be deeply wounded or die by it even if their numbers increase. The danger lay within the cultivation gap was indisputable, after all.
What Ye Xiwen planned on doing was to delay the opponents’ actions with Heaven’s Retribution. With enough time delayed, he would be able to enter the Transcendent Realm. With that, things would be different. The Star Beast Avatar that contains the Star Beast Bloodline would experience a burst in terrifying combat prowess.
Currently, the foundations of the Star Beast Avatar was extremely st.u.r.dy. The past few years were all used to ensure the stability of his foundations. Due to the Star Beast’s bloodline lineage, as long as he overcame the Transcendent Realm’s Heaven’s Retribution, his combat prowess would experience a surging increase. The power slumbering deep within his bloodline would also awaken very quickly. He didn’t need to enhance his combat power like others slowly.
This was his greatest advantage.
“Kill him! Kill him, and the Heaven’s Retribution would end!” said Wei Mingyang with an angry bellow. He was currently outraged. He could feel how thick the clouds were getting in the sky.
At such a moment, the other three Transcendent Realm experts couldn’t remain calm any longer. If Heaven’s Retribution were to befall, the four of them would be affected by it. They had to kill him before the Heaven’s Retribution’s power manifest at an extremely horrifying degree.
The terrifying and boundless aura enveloped everything as if it wanted to drown Ye Xiwen. It was truly horrifying.
Just as the opponent wanted to take action, numerous thunders struck from the sky. In an instant, the entire cosmos became a sea of lightning.
At this moment, the horrifying aura of the heavens was in full display. Everything within the sea of lightning turned into nothingness and dispersed entirely within.
Just like a downpour, it instantly came down and drowned everything. The lightning sea flooded everything. Even the surrounding meteorites had turned into fragments.
Ye Xiwen felt the lightning turning into one huge dragon after another in an instant, and were all bombarding his body. With the Tianyuan Mirror protecting him, these bolts of lightning were unable to get near him.
Like how Ye Xiwen expected, the four Transcendent Realm experts withstood the lightning downpour and came to pursue him.
They were enveloped in layers of Qi and wanted to kill Ye Xiwen instantly. Whenever the lightning downpour befell upon them, it exhausted a large amount of their Qi. They weren’t like Ye Xiwen. They didn’t have the Dragon Vein buried within the Tianyuan Mirror that could be used at their disposal.
“Bang!” Ran Chengtian bellowed and made a move first. The first move he made was the Heavenly Martial Heavens Severing Palm. It was the top-notch lost technique of the Heavenly Martial Sect. His hand almost grabbed the entire world into destruction. His hand came cras.h.i.+ng downwards towards Ye Xiwen. Within the sea of lightning, everywhere was trembling.
Even the insides of the sea of lightning were trembling. The tremble was so terrifying that it even shook the entire world. Ye Xiwen had a feeling that even the skies were going to be severed. He couldn’t avoid nor retreat from it and was forced to endure it with all his might.
The Tianyuan Mirror within his body was radiating with an even brilliant blood-colored radiance. It instantly formed a protective layer, just like a layer of armor. With his hands clenched into a fist, he went up against Ran Chengtian’s attack.
“Boom!”
Two shocking brilliance surged from within, followed by boundless energy waves. It swept through the area with an insurmountable force. Even the boundless lightning retribution sea was swept away by this terrifying force, and nothing remained.
As the radiance dissipated, it was instantly destroyed by the lightning downpour. Ye Xiwen’s body flew from within. Such a horrifying trembling force caused the blood-colored protection on his body to form a few cracks.
Ran Chengtian didn’t hold back at all. His intention to kill Ye Xiwen in the first move was so blatant. Ye Xiwen wasn’t able to withstand it. The strength of a Transcendent Realm expert was much more terrifying than he had imagined.
However, before he could catch a breath, the Ten Extremities Sect’s Mu Qingman arrived in front of him. She brought along a boundless and horrifying aura, which instantly bombarded Ye Xiwen.
In such a situation, Ye Xiwen couldn’t go against her attack forcefully. He immediately expanded his Demon Wings, and his speed increased by a significant caliber. He turned into a ray of golden light and disappeared within the lightning downpour. When he reappeared, he was already thousands of miles away. He immediately dodged away from Mu Qingman’s killing technique. Such a speed was considered to be heaven-defying.
Seeing how Ye Xiwen managed to dodge their killing technique, the Transcendent Realm experts were shocked. They never expected Ye Xiwen’s speed to be so quick. Although none of them had explicitly cultivated techniques that increase speed, it wouldn’t be a glaring shortcoming for a Transcendent Realm expert. Even if it was their shortcoming, it was sufficient in crus.h.i.+ng experts below the Transcendent Realm.
