Chapter 438
Without waiting for a response, Sheng Huang immediately kicked the ground, flying towards the yellow-robed young man in front of him at full speed.
At the same time, a metal armor quickly formed itself around his body, covering him from head to toe, without leaving any gaps in his defense.
Holding the bronze warhammer in his right hand Sheng Huang looked like a metal knight, as he swung the peak rank 3 gold grade warhammer at full force, aiming to hit the yellow-robed young man"s c.h.e.s.t!
The young man from the Holy sect hurriedly took out a rank 3 gold grade sword from his spatial ring and held it in front of his c.h.e.s.t with both hands, as he welcomed Sheng Huang"s attack head-on.
However, the moment that he actually felt the power behind Sheng Huang"s attack, the expression on his face suddenly changed.
The bronze warhammer felt no different than a small mountain collapsing upon him, as it sent him flying backwards uncontrollably for more than 10 meters until he finally stopped.
And yet, the young man from the Holy sect barely had enough time to stabilize himself and regain his footing, before another attack followed right after, immediately pushing him into a pa.s.sive position where he could only defend himself.
Staring at the scene at the center of the arena, Xie Xingyi narrowed her eyes as her gaze landed on Sheng Huang"s back, before she turned to look at Liu Mei next to her and spoke in a low voice
""Originally, the Shengtian dynasty was said to have only 2 peak rank 3 gold grade weapons in their possession, and both of them were being used either by the old king of the Shengtian dynasty Sheng Jun, or his wife.
However, nearly 2 months ago, the Shengtian dynasty somehow managed to step foot into the depths of the "Dragon Lord"s villa" and obtained countless rank 3 gold grade weapons!
Even the peak rank 3 gold grade weapons that they found actually numbered more than thirty, let alone the normal rank 3 gold grade ones!
With so many rank 3 and peak rank 3 gold grade weapons, the Shengtian dynasty would have been considered the undisputed strongest power in the entire "Night star continent"!
But who would expect that the "Alchemists" Guild" would actually arrive at the scene a few moments after the Shengtian dynasty and would engage in a chaotic fight with them?
Additionally, the old king of the Shengtian dynasty and the hall master of the "Demon Emperor palace" who were both at the scene in the very beginning, had long since left the depths of the "Dragon Lord"s villa" and were chasing after 2 people on a huge black dragon!
Without Sheng Jun to help them, the members of the Shengtian dynasty fell in a disadvantageous position fighting against the group of the "Alchemists" Guild" that was led by Zhao Lan!
In the end, the "Alchemists" Guild" obtained more than half of the gold-grade weapons in the depths of the "Dragon Lord"s villa", while the Shengtian dynasty got the rest of them.
As for that bronze warhammer in Sheng Huang"s hands, it is one of the peak rank 3 gold-grade weapons that the Shengtian dynasty obtained from the depths of the villa!""
Liu Mei"s lips twitched slightly when she heard this, before turning her gaze towards the bronze warhammer as well.
She couldn"t believe that so many things had happened after Shun Long had s.n.a.t.c.hed the 2 star-rank treasures.
At the same time, Liu Mei felt the translucent armor around her body, causing her eyes to once again search through the crowd around her in an attempt to see if Shun Long was really here!
However, due to the fact that the 1000 disciples in the audience seats were all sitting close to each other, Liu Mei didn"t manage to find the figure she was looking for.
Noticing Liu Mei"s gaze that was roaming through the crowd, Xie Xingyi asked curiously
""Mei, are you looking for brother Shun Long?""
Liu Mei nodded her head, but a disappointed expression soon appeared on her face, before she slowly turned her attention towards the center of the arena.
During the last 25 days that she and Xie Xingyi had spent together, the 2 of them had not only become friends, but after Xie Xingyi regained her strength, she also protected Liu Mei who was weak and couldn"t circulate her qi due to the aftereffects of the rank 5 "Blood Ignition pill".
During this time, Liu Mei had also explained to Xie Xingyi how she and Shun Long got to know her elder sister, causing waves of shock to rise in Xie Xingyi"s heart.
In reality, Xie Xingyi already knew about "a young master" who had a powerful expert backing him, and was probably at the same level -if not stronger- than their entire Xie family!
Xie Xingyi also knew that Shun Long and Liu Mei were the names of the people who had helped her sister obtain a "Dragon Lord"s medallion", allowing her father, her mother, and her elder sister, as well as herself, to all return back to the Xie family!
Thus, Xie Xingyi felt endless grat.i.tude towards the young man and the young woman that she hadn"t met.
However, based on what her sister had said, those 2 people were only Heaven grade cultivators back then and had yet to even step into the Spirit realm!
Could it be that they had managed to advance all the way to the Nascent Soul stage within 2 and a half years?
Although it wasn"t impossible if one had found an extremely rare treasure, in such a situation, that person"s cultivation would definitely be unstable.
As for Liu Mei"s cultivation, whether it was augmented by the help of a pill or not, she could still easily kill a peak rank 3 Nascent Soul stage cultivator by herself. This was certainly not the result of a rash advancement in cultivation!
During this time, Liu Mei had also noticed the attention that Xie Xingyi seemed to have been placing into Shun Long.
She had mentioned his name more than once and had said that she wanted to meet him.
As the days went by, she had even started referring to him as "brother Shun Long".
Originally, Liu Mei had been shocked by all of this and had even distanced herself from the beautiful young woman in front of her, but after spending the last 25 days together, the 2 stunning women ended up coming a lot closer with each other.
Of course, the main reason why they were able to become good friends within a single month, was the fact that Liu Mei had first saved Xie Xingyi while she was still helpless from the 4 peak rank 3 Nascent Soul stage cultivators who were chasing after her. Back then, after Liu Mei had saved her, if she had any malicious intentions she could have killed her long ago.
Both of these things made the 2 women become very close with each other.
At that moment, as Liu Mei and Xie Xingyi stared at the fight in the center of the arena, they saw the yellow-robed young man who was enduring Sheng Huang"s barrage of attacks for so long roar out in anger, before he started to inject his qi in the sword in his hands.
Suddenly, a blinding white light seemed to have erupted from the edge of the sword in the young man"s hands causing Sheng Huang to stop the subsequent barrage of attacks that he was about to follow with.
The eyes of the spiky-haired prince of the Shengtian dynasty slowly turned serious as he swapped his warhammer into his left hand.
At that moment, his lips slowly curved up into a smile as his right palm suddenly started to glow with a dark red-colored light.
Staring at the sword in the hands of the disciple of the Holy sect that was slashing down towards him, Sheng Huang finally smiled and no longer held back his strength! The aura of a cultivator at the early fifth stage in body refinement instantly erupted from his body, as he then pressed his right palm forward ready to clash with the rank 3 gold grade sword head-on, before he shouted in a mocking tone
""GET LOST!""
