On the battle stage where Ji Xuan and Wen Busheng were…

Ji Xuan stood in midair and a tremendous amount of spiritual energy gushed out from his body like waves. Behind him, it was as if the vast amount of spiritual energy had formed a faint yet huge sacred sun.

Floating in the air, the sacred sun emitted a shocking spiritual energy pressure, frightening many of the students witnessing the scene. Even those who had undergone three grades of the Spirit Disaster would probably not dare to face this level of attack directly. Ji Xuan had the highest reputation among the eight captains because he indeed had some outstanding abilities.

As many people exclaimed about him, Ji Xuan was, however, gazing ahead with a serious look. Wen Busheng stood there with a calm expression, his palm turning dark gold. It looked as if it were forged by gilding and an inexplicable pressure came from it.

“Sovereign hand bone…”

Ji Xuan stared at Wen Busheng intently and said slowly, “You are really very lucky.”

At that moment, Ji Xuan finally understood why Wen Busheng could lead a team that was not very strong but still managed to pass through every round and get into the top eight places. It turned out that this ordinary-looking guy actually had a powerful trump card.

“Sovereign hand bone?”

Around the battle stage, some students heard the competitors speaking. Shocked, they stared at Wen Busheng’s golden right hand with astonished looks. There is actually a sovereign hand bone in his palm?

Wu Busheng similarly stared at Ji Xuan and said, smiling, “It’s only luck. In the ancient remains of the shattered continent of ruins, I was fortunate enough to obtain a senior’s hand bone, which he kept by using his blood essence. Furthermore, it just so happens that the sovereign hand bone and I are quite compatible. I also know a bit of the art of transplanting, although I just managed to succeed.”

“Good luck indeed.” Some people could not help but feel amazed. When sovereign-level masters passed away, their bodies could be kept for thousands of years. However, even if someone was lucky enough to obtain such a sovereign bone, he could not transplant it into his body because the bone was not meant to be part of him. Once the bone was transplanted, it would instead cause a backlash, unless he was so lucky that the compatibility between the sovereign bone and himself was rather high.

Though it had an incredibly small chance of happening, Wen Busheng actually encountered such a situation. His luck was really envied by many.

“However, judging from the pressure of your sovereign bone, I’m afraid that its original owner was at most a grade five sovereign when he was still alive. Therefore, if you want to win today just by relying on the power of the bone, it will be difficult,” Ji Xuan said emotionlessly.

“If I do not try my best, who will know the result?” Wen Busheng similarly smiled lightly. Even as he faced Ji Xuan, who was very strong, he still did not show the slightest sign of fear.

“Then let me have a taste of the power a sovereign-level master can leave behind after passing away.” Ji Xuan glanced at Wen Busheng deeply, but his look started to turn cold. His body gradually ascended into the sky and behind him, the sacred sun formed by the great amount of spiritual energy grew clearer and larger.

Everyone could feel that the spiritual energy all around them started raging. The light emitted from the sacred sun could even boil the spiritual energy of the world.

All knew that Ji Xuan had decided to use an ultimate move to end the battle.

Puff.

Taking a deep breath, Wen Busheng suddenly clenched his golden fist. The sleeve on that arm instantly turned into dust and the blood vessels there started wiggling like dragons. All the blood in his body began flowing continuously into the palm.

As the blood entered, the dark gold palm turned duller in color, but the pressure coming out from it gradually increased.

Everyone watched in silence, not even daring to breathe loudly. Clearly, the two were planning an attack that would decide the winner.

Rumble!

The violent spiritual energy caused many ripples in the sky. The calm before the terrifying impact even caused the atmosphere to be somewhat frozen.

In the sky, the sacred sun behind Ji Xuan had already expanded to thousands of feet. Floating in front of the sun, his body appeared to be extremely small. The floating sacred sun was like the blazing sun falling from the sky, causing everyone to feel incredibly shocked.

When the sacred sun reached its extreme, a fine light seemed to appear in Ji Xuan’s cold eyes. He looked at Wen Busheng from above and his hands started to form a seal. A cold voice spread throughout the sky.

“The Great Sun Art. The sacred sun will cleanse the world!”

Buzz!

The giant sacred sun instantly gave out a buzzing vibration. As Ji Xuan completed his seal, everyone saw to their astonishment that the sacred sun suddenly shot upwards into the sky.

Vroom!

A while after the sacred sun reached high up in the sky, it dove down fiercely like a scorching sun was falling. Carrying a highly destructive power, it fell towards the battle stage under the startled gazes of many.

Under the horrifying attack, a series of dents appeared on the very firm battle stage and soon started to rapidly spread.

An alarming pressure came from the sky and Wu Busheng’s look turned more dignified. Lifting his head, the huge sacred sun magnified quickly in his pupils.

At that moment, he slowly raised up his right hand. It was as if a dark gold liquid was flowing inside the golden palm. Wen Busheng’s face turned more and more pale. Just then, he turned his palm upwards and hit the empty space on top gently.

“Hand of the Sovereign!”

A soft voice sounded off in Wen Busheng’s mind.

Buzz!

At the place where Wen Busheng’s palm landed, space started to fluctuate vigorously to the extent that visible ripples spread out one by one, just like water in a lake.

Golden light bloomed out and all could clearly see that a golden palm print flew out from Wen Busheng’s palm. The palm print increased in size as it ascended against the wind and in a short while, it grew to a thousand feet.

The golden palm charged upwards as if a giant were swinging his palm. Eventually, under countless astounded viewers, it fearlessly collided hard with the falling sacred sun.

Bang!

At the moment of collision, the whole world seemed to become quiet. However, the silence was only momentary and immediately afterwards, a bright dazzling light burst out in the sky.

It was as if the scene were caused by two meteorites smashing into each other.

An intense spiritual energy impact spread out in madness as many people raised their heads and watched the collision in awe. The sacred sun and the golden palm slammed into each other crazily as their terrifying powers kept corroding the other, trying to eliminate one another.

However, both powers were exceptionally strong. Thus, the two attacks actually entered a stalemate for the moment.

Seeing the scene from the battle stage, Wen Busheng’s golden palm, which was pressing against the empty space, slowly moved again. His face turned paler.

Buzz!

Suddenly, the golden light from the palm turned brighter. Then, everyone saw that the golden palm actually clenched and the sacred sun burst into pieces.

Gasp.

Everyone gasped in shock. Nobody could have imagined that Wen Busheng was this strong and could actually crush Ji Xuan’s powerful attack into pieces.

The sovereign hand bone was indeed strong.

Vroom!

After crushing the sacred sun, the golden palm took advantage of the violent spiritual energy explosion and charged upwards in the sky, slapping hard towards Ji Xuan.

That entire space was slightly distorted by the spiritual energy collision, so nobody could see Ji Xuan’s expression at that moment. However, as Wen Busheng continued his victorious pursuit, Ji Xuan faced it and did not seem to be planning on dodging it.

Vroom!

The golden palm appeared in front of Ji Xuan and smacked down with a great force.

Ji Xuan was emotionless and a cold look seemed to flash across his eyes.

Screech!

Suddenly, an ancient eagle cry spread throughout the sky. Many people raised their heads and seemed to spot an illusory eagle wing floating in the sky, eventually landing across the golden palm.

The illusory eagle wing only appeared for an instant and disappeared after passing through the golden palm, causing many to rub their eyes. It was as if the scene had been just a hallucination.

The golden palm suddenly came to a stop less than five feet in front of Ji Xuan and could not move any closer.

Ji Xuan extended his palm with an unconcerned look and gently tapped on the golden palm.

Crack.

Along with Ji Xuan’s light tap, the indestructible golden palm actually, to everyone’s astonishment, smashed into pieces and turned into golden light spots all over the sky.

Puh.

Wen Busheng, who was below, spewed out a mouthful of blood. The spiritual energy fluctuation in his body was extremely weak. He fell down on one knee with blood dripping down from the corner of his mouth.

Wiping away the bloodstain near his mouth, he lifted his head. At the moment, Ji Xuan was slowly descending and staring at him with a cold look.

“I lost.”

Wu Busheng smiled bitterly and then heaved a soft sigh.

As Wen Busheng said this, surprised exclamations were heard all over the place. Nobody could have thought that Wen Busheng, who originally had an advantage in his attack, would lose all of a sudden.

This Ji Xuan was really too strong.

Hearing the exclamations all around, Wen Busheng turned his head and gazed at a battle stage in the distance. There, an incredible spiritual energy fluctuation was being given out as well.

Ji Xuan’s reputation is indeed supported by his abilities. Mu Chen, whether Ji Xuan can be defeated or not is all up to you now…
