Immortality from Taming Elephant

Chapter 720 - 318: Decided in One Battle_2

Mu Yusheng nodded with a smile, as if he suddenly thought of something, and opened his mouth to speak."That Han Wangshan, is a very important friend of Mr. Xu, right? I heard that he died very heroically."

Xu Guang was silent.

"What a pity, if I had known Han Wangshan was such a person of integrity earlier, I would have insisted on the Sect agreeing to his matter with the junior sister. Perhaps today, he would already be the Holy Master of Tianya Holy Land."

Mu Yusheng spoke of these seemingly unrelated matters but revealed to everyone present why Xu Guang had come to Wan Chuan State and Tianya Holy Land.

His purpose was simple, to establish Xu Guang as the enemy of the entire Holy Land.

This battle was not just about answering the challenge, it was to uphold the honor of the Holy Land.

He was truly insidious, even if he didn’t make a move, just the verbal confrontation put him in an unbeatable position.

"When you see the junior sister someday, please remember to tell her, Han Wangshan was truly great, Mr. Mu admires him greatly."

Xu Guang looked expressionless, as if he were staring at a dead man.

"I think I need to correct something, Xu Mou is not targeting Tianya Holy Land, just purely thrilled by the hunt. My master, Heavenly Martial True King, once said I am a Martial Fool, this is my nature, cannot be changed. The kindness of Holy Heir Mu and Tianya Holy Land, Xu Mou holds in his heart."

"I misunderstood."

Mu Yusheng said with a smile, yet his tone carried no misunderstanding, it was thoroughly certain.

...

Tianya Holy Land naturally has a designated place for combat.

It’s a flat area atop a mountain peak, not very large.

But indeed, for experts of the Two Nirvana level, space no longer holds any significance in restraining them.

The size of the battlefield does not affect the outcome.

Mu Yusheng stood in mid-air, his green Daoist robe motionless in the sea breeze. His face was gaunt, his gaze as deep as a bottomless ancient well, his presence lacked any overpowering aura, yet vaguely fused with the whole world.

Xu Guang appeared calm, taking a step forward, lotuses formed beneath his feet in the void, birthed from his concentrated killing intent.

Mu Yusheng attacked first, neither sealing nor chanting a spell, just brushing his sleeve lightly.

"Heaven Talisman·Calming Sea."

A palm-sized, entirely deep blue jade talisman, with runes like layers of surging waves, flew out from his sleeve, expanding with the wind, instantly becoming a hundred feet in size, suspended above the battlefield.

It was not a direct attack, but a change of rules!

Xu Guang immediately felt as if he had sunk to the bottom of a ten-thousand fathom sea, an invisible pressure assailing him from all directions, not only did his physical body feel as heavy as a mountain, but even the circulation of Source Qi within became obstructed and sluggish.

More seriously, the seamless connection he had with the Five Emperor Divine Bodies was faintly impeded, weakened by the power of this "Calming Sea"!

A Heavenly-grade Talisman Treasure, connected to space, a heavy treasure.

As a Saint Heir, Mu Yusheng naturally had many trump cards.

This might just be one of his routine combat techniques.

Xu Guang remained expressionless, slowly reaching out.

"Five Emperors Patrol the Sky, Five Elements Rotate, Break!"

Boom!

Green, black, red, white, yellow, five-colored lights broke through the confinement of the Calming Sea power, and five majestic emperor-robed divine bodies proudly manifest!

Each divine body assumes its duty, the Five Elements domain unfolds instantly, creating a small realm of continuous flow belonging to Xu Guang within the absolute territory of the Calming Sea Talisman Treasure!

Mu Yusheng’s eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, seemingly not expecting Xu Guang’s Five Emperor Divine Bodies to be so seamlessly exquisite, able to adapt and counterattack against his talisman treasure’s domain quickly. He stopped probing, and with two fingers pointed to a second talisman treasure.

"Heaven Talisman·Drawing Boundaries."

The second jade talisman flew forth, colored dark yellow, with runes resembling mountain veins and territorial boundaries.

This talisman did not enlarge, but suddenly dissipated, transforming into countless invisible, fine lines, weaving through space!

In an instant, centered around the two, the space of several hundred feet was fractured, folded, and restructured!

Xu Guang’s vision blurred, Mu Yusheng was clearly a hundred feet away, yet his aura felt elusive, as though separated by countless layers of twisted mirrors.

The expansion of the Five Elements domain was obstructed, perception severely disturbed, and the linkage of the Five Emperor Divine Bodies showed a slight discord led by spatial dislocation.

Mu Yusheng’s figure flickered unpredictably in the folded space, each appearance unleashed a condensed, tangible green Daoist technique.

Either "Yi Wood Divine Thunder", like a green Flood Dragon tearing apart space, exclusively targeting the most vital Green Emperor Divine Body; or Xuanming True Water, extreme Yin and cold, attempting to freeze the water cycle controlled by the Black Emperor; or Taibai Metal Qi, sharp beyond comparison, clashing directly with the sharpness of the Gold Emperor Divine Body...

He did not attack blindly, but utilized the spatial advantage and information disparity created by the "Drawing Boundaries" talisman treasure to precisely target the weak nodes of the Five Emperor Divine Bodies, conducting slicing, harassment, and consumption.

For a time, Xu Guang found himself on the defensive, his Five Emperor Divine Bodies exhausted from handling attacks from bizarre angles, their Five Elements rotation rhythm disrupted, and the domain scope continually compressed.

This was a terrifying opponent, his methods nothing short of astonishing.

In just a brief moment, Mu Yusheng already displayed two Heavenly-grade talisman treasures.

This certainly wasn’t the full extent of his power, Qi Refiners are known for their bizarre means, and the more powerful the expert, the more tricky their methods.

Based on two Heavenly-grade talisman treasures, he could deploy a plethora of Daoist Techniques.

Xu Guang’s eyes hardened, forgetting true intent circulated within his mind, forcibly excluding the sensory interference brought by spatial distortion.

Slaughter intent soared, Red Lotus Karmic Fire surged from the Fire Emperor Divine Body, abandoning precise attacks, transforming into a raging sea of fire, with a domineering posture burning and purifying those distorted spatial lines!

At the same time, his main body resonated with the Five Emperor Divine Bodies, Hidden Devouring Divine Technique operated at full throttle, a blood sun millstone phantom appeared behind him, unleashing terrifying devouring power, not only absorbing incoming Daoist technique energy but forcibly assimilating and disrupting the energy maintaining the spatial structure of the "Drawing Boundaries" talisman treasure!

"Boom!"

Red Lotus Karmic Fire scorched space, Devouring Power consumed stabilizing energy, the combination caused the folded space to tremble violently, with a tendency to collapse.

Mu Yusheng furrowed his brow, evidently Xu Guang’s response was beyond his expectations.

Such a method of breaking with force, challenging the roots of dominion, requires an extremely deep source and immense explosive might.

Amid the trembling of space, for just a fleeting moment, Mu Yusheng’s form faltered due to the instability of "Drawing Boundaries".

Deep within Xu Guang’s eyes, a point of extreme darkness flickered.

"Demonic Intent Grows Wild, Formless Soul Attack!"

No earth-shattering momentum, not even noticeable energy fluctuations.

A cold, deathly silent, "Heaven Forsaken" feeling invisible force, like the deepest night, silently spread, penetrating the barriers of turbulent space, ignoring Mu Yusheng’s body-protective Profound Light, directly assaulting his Divine Soul!

The demonic intent wasn’t just a simple Spiritual Shock, it was more akin to a pollution and curse at the level of rules, stirring the target’s innermost negative emotions, past regrets, even the subtle discord towards universal rules, amplifying them, twisting them, ultimately breaking down his will internally, eroding his Dao foundation.

Mu Yusheng’s thus far calm demeanor changed dramatically for the first time!

He felt an inexplicable anxiety, as if a shadow cast over his Dao heart, and in hundreds of years of cultivation, every ounce of doubt, every minor mistake, even reflections on the unfeeling nature of the Dao, were magnified endlessly, attacking his adamant Dao realm.

More frighteningly, he felt the intimate connection he had with universal Source Qi being rejected and isolated by some force!

"What kind of wicked art is this?!" Mu Yusheng shouted sharply, unable to maintain an aloof posture.

A clear and misty Primordial Spirit Light shot from above his head, transforming into the illusory image of an ancient Dao lamp, the lamp light like a bean, yet emitting Pure Yang Dao charm, battling the infiltration and purification of that omnipresent demonic intent.

Simultaneously, his hands swiftly formed seals, disregarding consumption, forcing stabilization of the "Drawing Boundaries" talisman treasure, and driving the "Calming Sea" talisman treasure to unleash a greater suppressive force, attempting to restrain Xu Guang’s body with an absolute domain of power, breaking the source of the demonic intent.

For talents like Mu Yusheng, whose Sect is Wan Chuan State Holy Land, taught personally by a Saint, serving as the Saint Heir of a Holy Land for a hundred years, the combat power required to reach each level of realm is meticulously planned.

To achieve the best within the limits of one’s efforts and Talent.

This is the most fundamental requirement of a Saint Heir.

After realizing the two Heavenly-grade talismans couldn’t quickly resolve Xu Guang, he rapidly began changing his tactics.
