Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword-Chapter 642 - 619: Stepping on Geniuses (2/3)

The Scorpion-tailed Man was too arrogant, but his strength was indeed formidable. With just one hand, he suppressed a Moonlight Emperor who had surpassed the limit of the Eight-Wheel Moon—it was true he had the capital to be proud.

Zhao Fanlu and the other seven Moonlight Emperors were very dissatisfied, yet being no match for someone was a fact. In the Immortal Realm, nothing was more convincing than strength, and the Scorpion-tailed Man had proven his right to be arrogant with such power.

"Come on, all of you, attack together!" the Scorpion-tailed Man taunted like a cat playing with a mouse, and with a series of slaps, he actually slapped Zhao Fanlu across the face seven or eight times.

A man can be killed, but not humiliated!

And this was the face of a genius at that!

Enraged, the seven remaining on Zhao Fanlu’s side charged out to join the fray.

"Hahahaha, four is not enough to challenge me!" the Scorpion-tailed Man laughed heartily, moving with an ease that betrayed how effortlessly he handled the situation.

Now, it wasn’t up to Zhao Fanlu’s four to choose not to fight. Under the strong suppression of the Scorpion-tailed Man, they had no choice but to battle. The slightest hesitation might result in them being crushed— even if not killed, the humiliation of being slapped was no less than being beheaded.

"So strong!"

"One man suppressing four Moonlight Emperors who exceeded their limits—his power is infuriatingly overwhelming!"

"If even his followers are this strong, how incredible was the Cold Frost Young Master when he was a Moonlight Emperor?"

"But, hitting the minors might provoke the seniors; One Sword Breaks the Heavens Wu Qi is no easy target, is he?"

"I heard that Wu Qi hasn’t arrived yet, and neither has Cold Frost Young Master. Right now, only their followers have come!"

The onlookers discussed among themselves. Even though Wu Qi’s followers were completely overshadowed by the man associated with Cold Frost Young Master, no one dared to underestimate One Sword Breaks the Heavens, whose reputation was not built by his followers.

"All eight of you, come at me!" the Scorpion-tailed Man bellowed. His battle spirit was sky-high, and his scorpion tail flickered like Ghost Shadows, easily capable of piercing through the body of a Moonlight Emperor, its hardness and sharpness terrifyingly formidable.

Comparatively, the human race was more moderate and had no particular advantage in cultivation. On the other hand, members of Alien Races each had their unique talents, such as the Wind Wings Clan being born with the ability to fly, and the Scorpion people’s tail stingers having a special effect in breaking through defenses.

Zhao Fanlu’s remaining four, after exchanging glances, gritted their teeth and joined the battle as well.

They had to fight; their four companions had already been beaten to the brink, could they simply walk away?

Eight together in battle!

Each one of them was a Moonlight Emperor who exceeded the limits, with the strongest even being a Nine Wheels Moonlight Emperor. As they unleashed the power of the Bright Moon, the void trembled with the might of each punch thrown.

"Now it’s starting to look right!" Facing the onslaught of eight people, even with the addition of a Nine Wheels Moonlight Emperor, the Scorpion-tailed Man finally did not dare to take them lightly. With a buzz, he went all out, and instantly Ten Wheels full moons blossomed behind him.

Each moon wheel was a reddish-brown color, untainted by any other hue!

The purer the Moon Wheel, the faster the flow of Spiritual Power. With the same number of Moon Wheels, purity certainly gave an advantage. Although the Scorpion-tailed Man’s Moon Wheels were not the Top Grade white, they were nearly at the pinnacle of purity!

Ten Wheels Moonlight Emperor!

The crowd was amazed. No wonder he dared to fight alone against eight Moonlight Emperors who had exceeded their limits—he turned out to be an even stronger Ten Wheels Moonlight Emperor!

With each additional Moon Wheel, the difference in strength was tenfold. Just in terms of power, the Scorpion-tailed Man completely overwhelmed Zhao Fanlu’s eight. However, power and battle power were not strictly equivalent; Immortal Techniques that amplify power were also to be considered.

"Hahaha, today I will teach you a lesson, and you will learn what means to know the difference between the heavens and the earth!" the Scorpion-tailed Man laughed, dancing with both hands as Immortal Techniques pulsed around him. Overwhelmingly strong, he took on all eight and maintained an absolute advantage.

Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap!

Zhao Fanlu and the others all received fiery slaps across their faces, causing their cheeks to swell highly, their eyes burning with rage, wishing nothing more than to tear the Scorpion-tailed Man limb from limb!

What a monumental disgrace!

The Scorpion-tailed Man then stood still, saying, "Get lost, or if I strike again, it won’t be as simple as a few slaps!" His eyes swirled with a killing intent!

Too strong!

As a Moonlight Emperor who surpassed the limits, his battle power was almost defying the heavens! Had the Sunshine King’s defensive barriers not been impregnable, this man could possibly even cut down a Sunshine King!

The surrounding onlookers were filled with admiration. While they were focused on the Scorpion-tailed Man, their curiosity about the Cold Frost Young Master behind him increased. How monstrous must that person be to have a talent like the Scorpion-tailed Man willing to submit to him!

—This wasn’t something that could be won by Realm alone; after all, there were plenty of Sunshine Kings in this world!

Zhao Fanlu and his companions were red-faced with shame, but they had lost even the courage to continue fighting.

For honor, they could fight to the death, but the problem now was that even a desperate struggle would just be a senseless sacrifice. Wouldn’t that be too unworthy?

Zhou Heng found it boring to watch. The fight might have seemed incredibly exciting to others, but to him, it was just too ordinary. He said to Lian Jingxiang, "Let’s go."

"That kid’s too arrogant, Zhou, aren’t you going to teach him a lesson?" the Black Donkey egged on.

"Heh, weren’t you really scared earlier?" Zhou Heng laughed.

"The Divine Donkey has had a few drinks now, and I’m not afraid of even the Heavenly God himself!" the Black Donkey boasted, emitting the smell of alcohol.

Surely, alcohol emboldens even a nervous donkey!

Zhou Heng laughed heartily, yet he had no interest in bickering with people like the Scorpion-tailed Man. His target had long been set on higher level experts.

The defensive barriers of the Sunshine King were unbreakable, not to mention that the Eight-Wheel Moon could not penetrate it, even his own Thirteen Wheels Moon was the same! But what if the number of Moon Wheels was a bit more?

Fifteen Wheels, Twenty Wheels?

Zhou Heng had the feeling that the Sunshine King’s barriers were definitely breakable, only that the number of Moon Wheels had to reach at least Eighteen Wheels, or even more!

"Stop right there!" He had only taken a few steps away when the Scorpion-tailed Man actually leapt forward to block his path. With Ten Wheels of the Full Moon shining, the Scorpion-tailed Man’s hands enlarged, his body turning pitch-black, radiating a terrifying might.

"Are you talking to me?" Zhou Heng replied with a slight smile.

Was this guy an idiot? He could still smile at a time like this!

The onlookers all thought to themselves, failing to see that the menacing approach was definitely ill-intentioned!

"I called on you to give up your spot earlier and you wouldn’t listen. Do you think I, Chi Ming, am easy to bully?" the Scorpion-tailed Man said coldly, with a chilling glint flashing in his eyes as they opened and closed.

As if he hadn’t heard, Zhou Heng simply said, "Move aside, you’re blocking my way!"

"Hmph, you still want to play dumb now?" The Scorpion-tailed Man sneered, stepping towards Zhou Heng. With each step, ripples naturally formed beneath his feet, spreading outwards in the void.

Impressive!

These spectators were at the very least the presence of the Moonlight Sovereign; they were inwardly shocked to see this scene. This man’s strength was too powerful, someone was going to suffer!

Step by step, the Scorpion-tailed Man closed in on Zhou Heng, a cruel expression on his face as if a cat toying with a mouse. He was a genius of his clan, never having been rebuffed by anyone before; Zhou had already aroused his killing intent.

"Lie down for me!" He extended his right hand towards Zhou Heng’s head.

He wanted to crack open Zhou Heng’s skull with one grab and crush the deity inside, obliterating Zhou Heng both physically and spiritually!

With Ten Wheels Moon shining, the Scorpion-tailed Man seemed like a Heavenly God descending, instilling an intense sense of powerlessness from the bottom of everyone’s heart.

It’s over, that kid is done for!

Smack!

With a casual swipe of his palm, Zhou Heng sent the Scorpion-tailed Man spinning away with a crisp sound. But as soon as his body began to fall, Zhou Heng reached out and grabbed him back, raising his other hand and hammering it down on his head.

Splat, the Scorpion-tailed Man’s head instantly sunk into his chest cavity.

"Chi Ming!" The Elephant-nosed Man, the Tiger-faced Man, and Monkey-haired Face called out in unison, all darting out, shooting towards Zhou Heng.

Humming sounds rose behind them as a series of full moons ascended.

Ten Wheels Moon! Ten Wheels Moon! Ten Wheels Moon!

All three turned out to be peerless geniuses with Ten Wheels Moon as well!

Zhou Heng, holding the Scorpion-tailed Man by the chest, swung up to strike at the three incoming men with the force of a gale. Fearing for the Scorpion-tailed Man’s safety, the three with Monkey-haired Faces were forced to retreat in unison.

"Friend, let’s talk this out, release him first!" said Monkey-haired Face, who among the four held the strongest presence, with ten full moons all shining in golden color, the Moonlight making him seem like an invincible war deity.

Zhou Heng laughed heartily and said, "Now you want to talk nicely? When this idiot attacked me just now, where were you to speak up?"

Monkey-haired Face couldn’t help but turn grim. They were used to dominating, seeing bullying others as their natural right. Why were you weak in the first place? And they indeed were powerful, with few rivals amongst their peers, making them even more tyrannical.

In his view, Zhou Heng was indeed strong, but it was more a case of catching his companion off guard, which allowed for a successful hit. Otherwise, the outcome would be debatable!

"Release him first!" Monkey-haired Face’s eyes turned sharp, with two divine lights shooting out as if they could pierce through infinite space.

"Aaah—" In response, Zhou Heng brutally ripped off one of the Scorpion-tailed Man’s arms, also causing him to let out a scream of agony. Though his head had been driven into his chest, how could a Moonlight Emperor die so easily?

"Bastard!" The three with Monkey-haired Faces all yelled in anger.

This made all the surrounding onlookers panic!

The Scorpion-tailed Man had previously been so imposing, single-handedly dominating eight Moonlight Emperors who had surpassed their limits, with the ease of an undefeated Heavenly God. But in the blink of an eye, he was reduced to being trampled like a dog, such a stark contrast!

It was too big a contrast for anyone to accept!

But also damn satisfying, as who didn’t internally resent the tyrannical actions of the Scorpion-tailed Man and his foursome? Yet these four were so formidable that anyone had to weigh whether they could take them on, as each possessed the terrifying existence of Ten Wheels Full Moon.

Although most who came here were accompanied by experts, who would have the face to call upon "the lord" in a fight among equals? What honor would there be in winning?

If it were a private fight between two parties, then anything goes. Any method would do as long as it brought victory!

But now it was different; almost all the major powers of the Immortal Realm had come here, and the more it was such times, the more everyone abided by the rules.

Laughable pride. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it at Qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
