Chapter 69

Jixuan struck again, but this time the intent behind his punch was different.

This punch seemed to carry the weight of the cycle of life and death, far stronger than his previous righteous punch.

Even Junxuehuang, Junzhangjian, and the others felt an extreme sense of danger from this punch.

"Be careful, Divine Son!" they couldn't help but warn.

"Xiaoyao, be cautious," Jiang Shengyi also spoke up to remind him.

But Jun Xiaoyao himself remained calm, his expression unchanged as he watched Jixuan's approaching punch, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Because he felt that when Jixuan's punch intent was released, his Supreme Bone in his chest seemed to tremble slightly.

"What's going on? Could it be that the thing Jixuan is holding has some connection to my Supreme Bone?" Jun Xiaoyao muttered to himself.

His Supreme Bone had already awakened the Heavenly Tribulation Light and the complete version of the Heavenly Hand.

But the power of the Supreme Bone was far from just that.

It had even greater potential to be tapped.

And now, after sensing the intent of the cycle of life and death in that punch, his Supreme Bone actually reacted.

"Interesting."

Jun Xiaoyao's eyes flashed, and he clenched his fist.

The power of the seven million giant elephants erupted, golden mana surged, and coalesced into an ancient divine elephant that could suppress the universe.

He once again activated the Ancestral Dragon Nest's divine ability, the Dragon Fist.

Dragon qi wrapped around his arm, forming the shape of a green dragon, the dragon qi he had taken from Xiao Chen.

One dragon and one elephant, with dual enhancements, made Jun Xiaoyao's every move seem to possess the vast and mighty power to shatter the heavens and split the earth!

Jun Xiaoyao thrust his fist forward, the dragon and elephant following, the shock waves causing fear and trembling!

The air in front of him seemed to be pushed aside by this vast power, creating a vacuum!

This punch was shocking!

"Life-Annihilating Fist!"

Seeing this, Jixuan let out a long howl and unleashed his greatest strength.

Mana and divine power poured into the Sage King's hand bone.

Runic symbols appeared in the surrounding void, and a holy aura pressed out.

At the same time, the metal he held in his fist added a force of life and death to his Life-Annihilating Fist!

It could be said that any genius facing these two moves would feel despair and be completely unable to resist!

Bang!

Like a meteor colliding with the earth, the two fists met, and a violent wave of mana spread, leveling the surrounding land and causing deep cracks to spread.

In this extreme collision, Jixuan was sent flying backward, spitting out blood.

His wrist bone was shattered, his entire arm slightly twisted, his skin and blood vessels unable to withstand the divine power and split open.

The dark metal he held in his hand also slipped from his grasp and flew away.

Jun Xiaoyao raised his hand, and the metal was caught in his hand.

"Jun Xiaoyao, give it back!" Jixuan crashed through several ruined buildings before stopping.

He continued to cough up blood, his expression a mix of shock and anger.

Jixuan never thought that even with his full strength, he would not be a match for Jun Xiaoyao.

He even lost that important item.

Jun Xiaoyao ignored Jixuan and played with the metal in his hand.

This time, his Supreme Bone in his chest transmitted a clear sense of longing.

"Is this metal... the Cycle Gold?" Jun Xiaoyao raised an eyebrow.

He came from an ancient family, and his perspective was naturally extraordinary.

He had seen many rare treasures.

Cycle Gold was a divine metal, used to forge the Empyrean's proof-of-ascension weapon, and was very rare.

Even a fingernail-sized piece of Cycle Gold would be enough to make a group of sages fight to the death.

However, this small piece of Cycle Gold had already lost its essence, leaving only a faint sense of the cycle of life and death.

Jixuan had used this sense of the cycle to make his Life-Annihilating Fist even more powerful.

But even so, he still lost to Jun Xiaoyao.

"Jixuan, you actually have something like this," Jun Xiaoyao said calmly.

"Give it back!" Jixuan's face was grim.

At this moment, Jiang Shengyi said, "I've heard that in the Holy Spirit Academy, there is a holy spirit from ancient times. Could this small piece of Cycle Gold be a remnant from it?"

"Is that so?" Jun Xiaoyao was enlightened.

Jixuan had another identity as the Holy Son of the Holy Spirit Academy.

It was not impossible for him to obtain this small piece of Cycle Gold.

"Speaking of which, I might have to visit the Holy Spirit Academy in the future. This could be related to the transformation of my Supreme Bone," Jun Xiaoyao thought.

He looked at Jixuan and said calmly, "I thought it was something special, but it's just a remnant. Is this what you call a treasure?"

With that, Jun Xiaoyao crushed it into powder with one hand.

The Cycle Gold, having lost its essence, was easily crushed.

Jixuan's face turned red with anger.

He had never experienced such humiliation.

But as Jixuan felt angry, a sense of powerlessness also spread.

Previously, he had harbored a侥幸 (侥幸 means侥幸, but in this context, it can be translated as "侥幸" or "侥幸") that even if he couldn't defeat Jun Xiaoyao, he could at least fight him.

But the harsh reality told him that the gap between him and Jun Xiaoyao was still like a chasm.

What kind of minor sage was he in front of the Divine Son of the Jun family? Nothing!

"No, I haven't lost yet. The entire secret treasure is still under my control. If I can obtain that treasure, surpassing Jun Xiaoyao in the future is not impossible!"

Thinking of this, Jixuan rallied his spirits and became invigorated.

He took out an ancient talisman and infused it with mana.

In an instant, from the black divine tower at the center, array patterns spread out from the ground, covering the entire secret treasure with countless star-like array patterns.

At the same time, the ground shook, and hundreds of demonic corpses emerged from the earth.

They did not target Jixuan, who held the ancient talisman, but rushed directly toward Jun Xiaoyao and the others.

Most geniuses would probably be terrified by this scene.

But Jun Xiaoyao remained calm.

"Is this your confidence?" Jun Xiaoyao was unconcerned.

"Hmph, Jun Xiaoyao, accept this gift. The next time we meet, I might crush you!"

With that, Jixuan's figure flashed, and he entered the black giant tower.

"Pathetic!"

Jun Xiaoyao let out a cold laugh and raised his hand.

Surging mana surged, and a shocking sword intent spread from his body.

A brilliant and dazzling sword beam shot out, as if a divine shadow had manifested, the sharp sword beam capable of tearing through space.

With one sweep, a deep trench was plowed in front of him, and over a hundred demonic corpses were instantly killed.

They might have been powerful in life, but after death, their mana had dissipated, and they had been eroded by the gray mist, greatly reducing their strength.

But even so, these demonic corpses could still pose a life-threatening danger to geniuses at the Divine Bridge and Unity realms.

But now, Jun Xiaoyao casually wiped out over a hundred demonic corpses!

Seeing this, Jixuan, who had entered the black divine tower, was drenched in cold sweat.

When fighting Jun Xiaoyao, he hadn't even used the Immortal-Slaying Sword Technique!

"The grass I plan to harvest cannot escape my palm."

Behind Jun Xiaoyao, demonic wings extended, greatly increasing his speed as he rushed toward the black divine tower.

Seeing this, Jixuan also urgently used the Jia family's great body technique, the Void Step, his figure darting through the void toward the top of the tower.

The victor takes all.

This was the final showdown!
