"What is that?!"
The gray-robed youth raised his head and stared upward, his mouth agape. Even as the light of the black sun stabbed into his eyes and made them tear up, he didn’t dare look away.
His entire body shuddered violently as a bone-chilling cold surged through his heart.
A black sun, five ters in diater, was crashing down from above.
The terrifying might it contained was so imnse that it left one completely unable to even muster a thought of resistance.
The void twisted and blurred as wave after wave of ripples spread out like water.
The black sun resembled a teor—or rather, a fallen sun crashing straight down from the heavens.
Poof—
Two pitch-black palm prints shattered like fragile bubbles, not even stirring the air.
"This kind of power... is this a High-Level Earth Grade Dou Technique?!" the gray-robed youth shrieked. His eyes were completely bloodshot, veins popping with fury and panic.
His aura suddenly erupted, soaring several levels in an instant. Dense, icy black qi swirled violently around his palms as he struck forward. "I’ll block it!"
In an instant, two even more condensed and massive black palm prints erged, slamming upward toward the falling black sun.
Sss sss—
The icy cold energy clashed with the black sun’s scorching heat. Two completely opposing energies collided and canceled each other out, letting off hissing sounds.
The next mont, the palm prints and the black sun collided fiercely.
Ti itself seed to freeze in that mont.
As if the loudest sound had vanished into utter silence.
Silently, a massive black mushroom cloud surged into the sky.
Wom—
A wave of force quietly spread out, the void rippling like disturbed water.
Wherever it passed—
Crack crack—
Space fractured like glass, covered in fine, web-like cracks that rapidly spread outward, as if unable to withstand the pressure and on the verge of collapse.
Then—
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
The thunderous explosion finally arrived, delayed but deafening, shaking the heavens.
...
Monts later—
The violent aftershock finally began to settle.
Whoosh!
A battered figure shot out from the lingering remnants of the blast.
His hair was disheveled, his robes torn and scorched, blackened in many places. His chest rose and fell violently as he panted for breath, his face pale and drenched in sweat.
"My soul power was nearly drained just to barely block it..." the gray-robed youth trembled with lingering fear. That terrifying explosion had nearly crushed him.
Then ca a wave of heartache. That one move had cost him more than half his soul power!
His soul was already in a half-crippled state, far from its peak.
Now it had suffered even more damage.
Cough cough cough...
Just then, a fit of coughing echoed from nearby.
The gray-robed youth quickly turned his head to look.
In the distance, Wei Yang’s figure erged. With his wings lightly flapping, he hovered several hundred ters away.
At this mont, his black robe was a bit disheveled, and a few strands of hair had co loose from his neatly combed head. But overall, he still looked relatively clean and tidy. Though his face was sowhat pale, his aura remained stable—he didn’t appear weak at all.
"You! How are you...?"
The gray-robed youth’s eyes widened in a mix of shock and fury.
He looked like a beggar, yet the other guy looked as if he hadn’t even been scratched?
But very quickly, he sneered coldly. "Heh... Kid, you put on a good act. But did you think I wouldn’t notice? Even if you hide it well, your aura is slightly unstable and clearly weaker than before... Hmph. With your cultivation level, that last move must’ve taken a huge toll, right?"
Wei Yang simply smiled, neither confirming nor denying.
No matter how powerful the technique, he was currently just a One-Star Dou Huang.
Even a weakened version of Black Sun Burning Heaven Palm was definitely a High-Level Earth Grade Dou Technique. The consumption was, frankly, overwhelming.
Right now, his entire body felt hollowed out.
The vast Dou Qi that had once surged through his ridians was now almost completely drained.
Unfortunately, he hadn’t been able to kill the other guy in one blow.
As expected—old monsters like this weren’t easy to kill.
Still, the gray-robed youth wasn’t doing well either. Beyond looking pitiful on the surface, he had lost more than half of his soul power. If Wei Yang had the strength to unleash Black Sun Burning Heaven Palm one more ti, the gray-robed youth would likely be finished.
Both of them were extrely weakened at this mont.
So the two sides fell silent for a while, staring at each other wide-eyed.
At the sa ti, they both hurried to seize the mont to regulate their breathing and recover a bit.
...
The gray-robed youth’s chest heaved violently a few tis. After calming his breath slightly, he looked toward Wei Yang and asked with suspicion, "That black fla you just used—was it a Heavenly Fla?"
"That’s right," Wei Yang nodded.
"Which Heavenly Fla is it?" the gray-robed youth asked curiously.
In his mory, there didn’t seem to be any record of such a fla.
"It’s nothing much—just number twenty-four on the Heavenly Fla Ranking: Black Sun Burning Heaven Fla," Wei Yang replied with a smile.
"Heavenly Fla Rank twenty-four? Black Sun Burning Heaven Fla?" The gray-robed youth frowned. "Never heard of it."
Then, glaring at Wei Yang, he snapped angrily, "If you don’t want to say it, just say so. Why toy with ? There are only twenty-three Heavenly Flas in the rankings—where does a twenty-fourth co from?"
"Just because it didn’t exist before... doesn’t an it doesn’t exist now, or won’t in the future," Wei Yang gave him a calm glance and said faintly.
"You an... I see, so it’s a brand new Heavenly Fla?" The gray-robed youth suddenly understood.
Then, his gaze turned rather complex as he looked at Wei Yang and sighed with emotion. "I didn’t expect that today, I would be fortunate enough to witness a brand-new Heavenly Fla, and even experience its power firsthand."
"So it’s called Black Sun Burning Heaven Fla? A fine na! I suppose that day when the ten suns appeared in the skies above the Imperial Capital—that anomaly had sothing to do with you, right? This Heavenly Fla possesses extraordinary power. To be ranked twenty-fourth... seems a bit unfair."
Wei Yang replied nonchalantly, "Rankings are just rankings. They don’t an much. Besides, that’s only for now. In the future, I’ll naturally make sure it gets the place it deserves."
"Indeed. It has only just been born. As it gradually reveals its brilliance, it will surely shake the continent, beco known to the world, and redefine the rankings," the gray-robed youth nodded in agreent.
"I suppose I’m the first to contribute to its fa, the first stepping stone on its path," the gray-robed youth chuckled with a bit of self-mockery—but in truth, his tone held a hint of honor.
"Heh." Wei Yang let out a soft laugh and said, "How’s your recovery?"
"Hehe." The gray-robed youth chuckled. "At least enough to withstand two or three more rounds of that move you just used."
"Is that so." Wei Yang glanced sideways at him.
"Then how about you? How’s your recovery going?" the gray-robed youth asked casually, though he was inwardly tense.
His situation was quite passive.
He couldn’t help but glance toward the direction of the Imperial Capital—he had no idea how his Dou Zong subordinate, Di, was doing.
Probably wouldn’t last much longer. Ti was pressing.
"I’ve recovered fairly well too," Wei Yang responded unyieldingly. "At the very least, I can still manage to hit you with that move two or three more tis."
"Heh... is that so?" The gray-robed youth gave a dry chuckle. "So, should we continue chatting then?"
"I’m afraid... that’s no longer possible," Wei Yang exhaled lightly, sounding slightly regretful.
"What?" The gray-robed youth instantly beca alert. In his palms, black currents of energy rapidly erged and swirled.
These mysterious black streams carried an extraordinarily chilling aura, like a cold current straight from the Nine Netherworlds. One could feel that even their soul would freeze if touched by it.
A ghastly blue-white fla erged, blending with the black currents. Even the blue-white fla beca tinged with threads of pitch-black.
This caused its power to beco even more terrifying than before.
Crack, crack, crack—
The surrounding space seed about to freeze over completely, emitting faint cracking sounds.
Looking closely, one could see a faint layer of black frost subtly spreading through the space around the gray-robed youth.
