Chapter 429: Chapter 429: Yang Xiaotian, You’ve Puffed up the Bull to the Sky
“In this battle, I must defeat you!”
Hearing Du Hongqing’s words, everyone turned their attention to Yang Xiaotian.
Last time when Yang Xiaotian fought against Wei Zongyuan, his two Divine Elixirs and nine Sword Hearts shocked the world, yet no one had seen Yang Xiaotian’s Martial Soul, nor had anyone seen his Soul Rings.
For the past two years, Celestial Burial Academy and Buddha Source Empire had been discussing Yang Xiaotian’s Martial Soul and Soul Rings.
Ji Wudi was also curious about Yang Xiaotian’s Martial Soul and Soul Rings.
Ever since Wei Zongyuan died at the hands of Yang Xiaotian in Martial Emperor City, the outside world’s rumors about Yang Xiaotian’s Martial Soul and Soul Rings had become even more mythical.
Almost everyone unanimously believed that Yang Xiaotian’s Soul Rings must be hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings, and that they were directly condensed, unlike Wei Zongyuan’s, which were upgraded through life-and-death trials.
Directly condensed hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings, their power would definitely be stronger than those upgraded later on.
Yang Xiaotian glanced at Du Hongqing’s two Supreme Martial Spirits, his face calm as he said, “To defeat you, half a move is enough.”
To defeat you, half a move is enough!
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a strong stir among everyone.
Because in the past, during the battle between Wei Zongyuan and Yang Xiaotian, Yang had also said this phrase.
This overwhelmingly confident remark was still being passed around among many disciples at the Celestial Burial Academy.
“That’s just too domineering! Du Hongqing is endowed with the Innate Sword Heart, Sword Body, Sword Bone, and Sword Soul! And he has twin Supreme Martial Spirits! And Yang just said he could defeat Du Hongqing in half a move!”
“Divine Yang is truly worthy of the name Divine Yang!”Nôv(el)B\\jnn
In the crowd, one disciple after another was shocked by Yang Xiaotian’s words.
“Divine Yang, you’re so cool!”
“Divine Yang, I love you!”
Many female disciples, with stars in their eyes, screamed excitedly at Yang Xiaotian.
Listening to those female disciples’ smitten screams, Wang Qing and others couldn’t help but smile wryly.
Ji Wudi, looking at Yang Xiaotian, laughed and said, “This young fellow has the flair I had back in the day, I like it!” With that, he burst out laughing.
Wang Qing was speechless.
The God of Asura, however, frowned, feeling that Yang Xiaotian was a bit too arrogant.
His own disciple had twin Supreme Martial Spirits and was born with the Innate Sword Heart, Sword Bone, Sword Body, and the Immortal Sword Soul, yet Yang dared to claim he could defeat him in half a move.
Did this kid really think his disciple was made of mud that he could trample on as he pleased?
Du Hongqing was also angry, his face flushing red as he glared at Yang Xiaotian. “Fine, Yang Xiaotian, I want to see how you can defeat me in half a move! Everyone says your Soul Rings are hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings, and I really want to witness the power of hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings.”
“Hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings?” Yang Xiaotian said indifferently, “Is that the strongest Soul Ring in your eyes?”
At Yang Xiaotian’s words, all the powerful figures present were stirred.
“What does Divine Yang mean by that? He’s saying that his Soul Rings are not just hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings!”
“What, not just hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings! That’s impossible, right?”
Many powerhouses were astonished.
Even Ji Wudi, the God of Asura, Wang Qing, and others were greatly surprised.
In everyone’s understanding, hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings were the strongest already.
But now, Yang Xiaotian was saying that his Soul Rings were not just hundred-thousand-year!
“Two hundred thousand years? Could Divine Yang’s Soul Rings be two hundred thousand years?”
“It must be! Two hundred thousand years!”
“That’s just too frightening!”
Many disciples at the Celestial Burial Academy excitedly speculated.
Thinking that Yang Xiaotian’s Soul Rings might be two hundred thousand-year Soul Rings, everyone was so excited they couldn’t contain themselves, some even feeling a rush of urgency like they were about to pee themselves.
Urgency to pee oneself, what kind of feeling is that?
That is a feeling of exhilaration to the heavens!
Du Hongqing’s heart also violently shook, his complexion pale. Could it be that Yang Xiaotian’s Soul Rings were truly two hundred thousand years old?
If there really were a two hundred thousand-year Soul Ring, that would be far too terrifying.
A one hundred thousand-year Soul Ring, such as the one from legends, already possessed inconceivable power, let alone a two hundred thousand-year one.
“However, I don’t need to use the power of my Soul Ring to defeat you,” Yang Xiaotian said indifferently.
The excited crowd was taken aback.
What does that mean?
It seemed that Yang Xiaotian did not want to use his Soul Ring.
This left all those who originally wanted to see the two hundred thousand-year Soul Ring greatly disappointed.
Even Ji Wudi couldn’t help feeling disappointed in his heart.
He originally wanted to see if Yang Xiaotian truly had a two hundred thousand-year Soul Ring and witness its terrifying power, but it looked like he would not get that chance.
Upon hearing this, Du Hongqing laughed loudly: “Yang Xiaotian, you’ve blown your own trumpet to the skies, making me actually believe you had a two hundred thousand-year Soul Ring. It seems like you’re too scared to show it; you don’t have a two hundred thousand-year Soul Ring at all!”
“I could boast of having a three hundred thousand-year Soul Ring myself.”
“Anyone can boast.”
Watching Du Hongqing smirk with pride and burst into laughter, Yang Xiaotian spoke up, “Make your move.”
No sooner had Yang Xiaotian spoken than Du Hongqing made his move.
He almost instantly appeared in front of Yang Xiaotian, his fists thundering out fiercely.
As he unleashed his fists, the power of two Supreme Martial Spirits, the force of the War Heaven Sword Body, the Supreme Sword Bone, the Immortal Sword Soul, and the Innate Sword Heart all roared out from his fists.
Boom!
The terrifying punch shook the very space.
Some disciples of lower strength even fell over, shaken to the ground.
This was just the spatial vibration caused by the force of the punch.
It was not even one ten-thousandth of the punch’s force.
Du Hongqing’s Red Dragon and Green Tiger Martial Souls shone brilliantly into the sky, sword energy surged from his body, illuminating countless mountain peaks. The brilliance reminded everyone of the dazzling light Yang Xiaotian produced when he activated the two Divine Elixirs.
Under the overwhelming force of the punch, Du Hongqing appeared like the Sword God of this world, roaring, “Yang Xiaotian, let me witness the power of your two Divine Elixirs!”
As Du Hongqing’s overwhelming force approached, Yang Xiaotian’s body suddenly erupted with three hundred sixty-five golden pillars of light. The pillars soared into the sky and blasted into the heavens.
The sky seemed to have been pierced with three hundred sixty-five giant holes.
The power of all three hundred sixty-five acupoints in Yang Xiaotian’s body was awakened.
“What, the Martial Venerable Realm!”
“Three hundred sixty-five acupoints!”
The crowd on site was shocked.
Ji Wudi, Wang Qing, and others were all astonished.
Du Hongqing, too, wore an expression of disbelief.
More than two years ago when Yang Xiaotian joined Celestial Burial Academy, he had just broken through to Martial Emperor, right? To be sure, Du Hongqing thought that even if Yang Xiaotian had cultivated swiftly, he would only be at the sixth or seventh level of the Martial Emperor.
But Yang Xiaotian had actually made a breakthrough to Martial Venerable!
Moreover, he had opened all three hundred sixty-five acupoints!
Even though he possessed the Innate Sword Heart, Sword Bone, Sword Body, and Immortal Sword Soul, he was just a Martial Emperor.
A Martial Emperor challenging someone who had opened all three hundred sixty-five acupoints in the Martial Venerable Realm?
Wasn’t that courting death?
While Du Hongqing was struggling to believe it, Yang Xiaotian launched his punch. Immediately, the daunting True Essence Power from all three hundred sixty-five acupoints roared out from his punch like a tidal wave.
When a Martial Venerable practitioner opens their acupoints, it not only boosts their vitality and strengthens their body, but also stores True Yuan.
Thus, the more acupoints that are opened, the more True Yuan is stored.
Each of Yang Xiaotian’s acupoints was already several times larger than those of an ordinary Martial Venerable. When True Yuan from all three hundred sixty-five acupoints was activated together, how torrential and terrifying would that be!
