Qin Yun had already transford into a solid Vajra. He tore out a fla of light, exuding an Aura that made one tremble. His face was hideous and mad, his gaze holding only that figure standing before the Starfire.
Now that the Starfire had rekindled, it was impossible for the Royal Court to attack in again. Then his end could be easily imagined.
And all of this was due to the damned Remnant Spirit breaking its promise and being treacherous!
Right now, there was no room for maneuver. No matter what the Remnant Spirit said anymore, he wouldn't believe it. While making his move, he had already noticed the energy particles bursting around Su Chen.
"Putting up a stubborn resistance!"
Qin Yun didn't care at all. Even though previously, due to Anchoring Spirituality in his body, it had nearly hollowed out his body, and he had just suffered Backlash and was already heavily injured, his overall strength long since no longer at its Peak Condition, it was still absolutely not sothing the other party could withstand.
"Die for !"
Thump!
A dazzling brilliance suddenly exploded. Energy ripples surged, like a miniature sun detonating. Looking from afar, it was as if a certain area of the Starfire had flashed.
Amidst the explosion's Aftermath, a shadow of light shot out. Qin Yun's Vajra giant fist, the size of a millstone, smashed down, blasting Su Chen to fly backwards, tearing out a patch of Violent elental mist mixed with crimson. However, the hideous and mad smile on his face stalled, gradually turning into a look of horror.
Although he suppressed Su Chen and sent him flying backwards for a distance, that was all there was to it.
This punch of his didn't feel like it smashed into a body of flesh and blood, but rather like it smashed into a steel plate. The scene of flesh and blood flying that he envisioned didn't occur.
Su Chen had withstood this Violent strike of his!
"Qin Yun!"
Behind him, Ku Boye's ntal fluctuations were like the cold wind in the twelfth lunar month. His turbid eyes were entirely crimson, and his speed was already at its limit, but he still couldn't catch up to Qin Yun...
For an old fogey like him, his only wish was to see the Sect remain strong, and what was needed was the younger generation like Su Chen. If he was killed by Qin Yun...
Suddenly, his dead leaf-like figure abruptly stopped in mid-air, looking at the scene before him feeling it was Unimaginable, "This... this..."
In the distance, Qing Cang, who was just preparing to mobilize the Ancient King's Phantom Image, widened his eyes. On his face, which should have been pale due to his injuries, an abnormal flush surged, "He actually... blocked it!?"
That was Qin Yun! Even if he was weaker, he was still a Morning Star! Su Chen...
After the brief shock, he let out a long breath of relief. It was good as long as he blocked it, it was good as long as he blocked it.
The several Heads of Seats who were similarly preparing to rush to the rescue also froze halfway. Lin Langtian gasped, subconsciously shouting in shock: "How is that possible?"
The several of them looked at this scene in the distance; it was simply like a fantasy tale. Su Chen had crossed his arms and actually blocked Qin Yun's strike.
Even if Qin Yun was in an unprecedentedly weak state, even if Su Chen only seed to barely block it... but blocking it was blocking it...
Within the temporary command center, the nurous high-ranking Sect mbers were Staring with tongue tied. There was dead silence, with only the humming sound of the Paynt Terminals operating.
"He blocked it!" A Sharp Gleam burst from Lu Feng's pupils. His figure flew forward a distance in disbelief, seemingly making sure he hadn't seen wrong. His face was taut, and he spat out two words: "Qin Yun, truly trash!"
King Peng's mind churned, and he sighed: "What a pity, it's truly too much of a pity..."
Such a tyrannical display of strength definitely represented an unprecedented secret or ability. If the plan had gone smoothly, they would have made a huge profit.
"How did he withstand it? How could he withstand it!?" In the mothership below, Han Xiao roared repeatedly. Within the entire command post, there was Pin-Drop Silence.
Until a certain mont, soone suddenly called out: "Your... Your Highness!"
"Speak!" Han Xiao's expression was gloomy. He had convinced the Royal Clan to bring the Galaxy Throne over precisely for this unprecedented rit.
rging the fire of the Bronze Sect was sothing even his father hadn't done. If he succeeded, his position would naturally be unshakeable.
As for Su Chen, in his eyes, he was rely an add-on.
But now, with the Bronze Sect's Starfire thoroughly recovered, everything had co to naught.
"...The Royal Court is under attack..."
"What?" Han Xiao's expression drastically changed.
...
"Why are they still fighting?" Zhou Yunyang stood before the window. With his Professional Tier, he could vaguely see the previous God-Defying Titan, having already done his best.
"The Starfire has thoroughly recovered, why is there still a battle inside the Sect?"
But behind him, He Peiting's face was extrely bizarre, carrying a flush of excitent.
"This guy still wasn't at full power just now..." At this mont, Black Buddha's desire for Su Chen was unprecedentedly strong, strange lights glimring in his eyes.
"It's truly too hard to imagine, I've never seen this kind of lifeform. I definitely, definitely, definitely must get my hands on him."
"Get your hands on what?" Zhou Yunyang turned his head, sowhat puzzled.
Black Buddha stalled, only then realizing that he actually hadn't controlled himself just now and had spoken his inner thoughts out loud. He hurriedly revealed a simple and honest smile: "Nothing."
Zhou Yunyang also didn't mind, excitent remaining on his face, "The Starfire has thoroughly recovered, and the Royal Court is Returning in Defeat. Tonight, you'll drink a little with ."
"Yes..." He Peiting nodded in agreent, withdrawing his expression, secretly scheming, "Su Chen still doesn't know this Advent Body exists, this is my biggest advantage."
"It's fine that we couldn't achieve Falling Fire, but I must take Su Chen away. I'm afraid I'll have to mobilize more Divine Blood and Faith Essence over here, and strike with the speed of a thunderbolt. While the Bronze Ancient King hasn't returned, this is my last chance."
...
"That seems to be the Bronze Sect's Star Seed, Su Chen. He blocked Qin Yun's attack?"
On a spaceship concealed in the distance, a device extending dozens of ters long from the front end, similar to a tal cannon barrel, was engraved with massive amounts of symbols. However, upon closer inspection, one could discover that the front end faintly emitted a glass-like glow. This seed to be a type of filming equipnt.
It could penetrate through the distorting interference of the Energy Barrier to capture so of the scenes inside as much as possible.
Even so, the image on the screen was still extrely blurry. Only after multiple rounds of processing could so outlines be made out.
The filr's breathing was hurried, his face flushed red: "Holy crap, holy crap, huge news! Quickly, quickly contact the Prophet Society. I want to sell this for 10 million? No, 100 million... No... I want to sell it for 1 billion Star Credits!"
...
Su Chen had his hands crossed above his head, Vitality surging throughout his body. He slowly let out a breath and looked up at the Vajra before him, only feeling a stinging sensation coming from all over his body.
He had always been very curious about exactly what degree his accumulation and Foundation during this period of ti could reach.
Previously, even when facing Taixuan Tianyi or Black Buddha, they hadn't forced him to use his full strength.
Until now, Qin Yun's sudden strike forced him to bring out all his thods to deal with it. This mont was his Peak Condition.
"Immovable Vajra paired with Arcane Artifact Enhancent is truly too perverted. If you can't shatter in one go, then you can't cause injuries, only reduce my Physical Stamina."
"Right now, Qin Yun is long past his peak, not even comparable to those Heads of Seats. There's fundantally no way he can shatter my body, which has been elevated to the 8th-Tier through Limit Break, and enhanced with five 9th-Tier Mystic Tools as well as two Morning Star Artifacts."
Su Chen could clearly see the blankness on Qin Yun's face. Obviously, the fact that he could withstand this strike greatly exceeded the other party's expectations.
Qin Yun was blanking out, but he wasn't. The muscles in his right leg tightened, and blood-gold thunder erupted. Carrying a terrifying Great Strength, he raised his foot and swept it out horizontally.
Qin Yun fundantally didn't resist. His Vajra figure was like a top, spinning as it shot out.
But it looked like he hadn't sustained too many injuries; only a bit of blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. However, his expression remained blank, as if he hadn't reacted, still unable to believe it.
Su Chen only felt his right leg go a bit numb. He clicked his tongue inwardly, "With my current state, I can fight, but there's no need."
The fact that he could maintain this state relied on the Eternal Physique reducing his consumption, and then continuously Draining nutrients from the Great Heaven Pill to replenish himself. If he relied solely on himself, he estimated he could only withstand one hit before his strength would be exhausted.
The consumption at this mont had reached an Unimaginable degree. The shrinking speed of the Great Heaven Pill had also increased significantly.
"This thing is truly amazing. If I have the chance in the future, I must get a few more."
Su Chen had A Slight Stir in One's Heart, and his ntal fluctuation imdiately rippled out: "Don't just stand there dazed, attack!"
Being able to fight didn't an being able to win.
The substantial gap between him and Qin Yun was truly too large. It was only by using Limit Break to forcefully raise his Tier by one, and pairing it with enhancents, that he could withstand it.
But wanting to win was still far from enough. Even in a heavily injured state, Qin Yun was still a genuine Morning Star.
But he wasn't the only one here.
The closest one, Ku Boye, suddenly reacted and had already charged forward. But he didn't attack Qin Yun; instead, he stood in front of Su Chen to block for him.
Lin Langtian and the others had also rushed over. He Chengying closed in, wielding a pair of giant axes that were entirely crimson. His eyes burned like molten gold; with every raise of his hand, the axe blades burst out with crimson tongues of fire.
Lin Langtian's body was surrounded by grayish-black yin energy rolling like angry waves. With a light tap of his finger In the Void, talismans condensed from black mist descended. The talismans silently exploded, transforming into countless soul-devouring black shadows that pounced towards Qin Yun like locusts.
The five Heads of Seats, so skilled in close combat, so skilled in long-range attacks, various entirely different energy torrents intertwined and collided In the Void, blasting out silent shockwaves.
"How could this happen? How could this happen?" Qin Yun acted as if mad. He was already unhesitatingly splashing and squeezing his own Primal Source regardless of the cost. He didn't put up any defense against the incoming attacks, only wanting to head towards Su Chen. But he was firmly locked in the center, finding it difficult to break through.
Naturally, Su Chen couldn't fight Qin Yun in this kind of situation, and only watched from the periphery.
For Heads of Seats like Lin Langtian to join forces to suppress a heavily injured Qin Yun at this mont, there was still absolutely no problem.
It didn't take but a mont for Qin Yun to be bound up. His injuries were disastrous, and he was tightly subjected to a Blockade, half-kneeling In the Void.
"Hahahahaha!" Qin Yun's hair was disheveled, his body covered in blood, and his face twisted. His ntal fluctuations rolled continuously, "You've all been deceived, you've all been deceived! He isn't Su Chen at all!"
"He is that Remnant Spirit! His body was taken over by that Remnant Spirit long ago! Idiots! Truly a bunch of idiots!"
"Remnant Spirit?" Lin Langtian's expression shifted slightly, looking with so pity at Qin Yun half-kneeling In the Void. It hadn't even been a few years since the ti when his power was at its zenith, and so scenes from the past were Vividly Rembered.
With just a reach of his hand, he obstructed the transmission of Qin Yun's ntal fluctuations.
Su Chen hugged his arms and floated to the side, having already deactivated the various enhancents. After all, it wasn't without a price, especially Limit Break. Afterwards, the price was the stagnation of Developnt Progress.
The longer it lasted and the higher the Tier, the longer the stagnation ti. He looked at Qing Cang, who appeared here by his side, his brows slightly furrowing: "Senior Brother, how did this guy run out?"
"Ultimately, I still held onto a sliver of hope." Qing Cang shook his head, his gaze extrely indifferent as he looked at the disheveled Qin Yun.
"You've all been deceived, Qing Cang... He hasn't been Su Chen for a long ti." Qin Yun's icy and gloomy gaze stared at Su Chen: "Do you really think you can hide it from everyone?"
No one cared what Qin Yun was saying.
On one side was the future Ancient King, Su Chen, with boundless potential, who had just resolved the Crisis of the Flas at a critical mont and forcefully withstood a strike from Qin Yun.
The other was the traitor Qin Yun, Putting on an Act, attempting to deceive everyone and lure the Royal Court over. It was self-evident who to believe.
Moreover, the various incomprehensible things about Su Chen hadn't just started now.
No one paid attention to him.
Su Chen then asked sowhat hesitantly, "Then should we still lock him up and wait for the Ancient King to return and kill him?"
"Waiting for the Ancient King to return is letting him off too easily!" Qing Cang sneered, "The cri of betraying the Sect is unforgivable!"
Previously, although Qin Yun had killed the Morning Stars of several other Sects in the Flare Realm, there were no Bronze Sect Morning Stars among them. It could only be said that he was on the verge of death and seeking self-preservation.
But just now, attempting to destroy the Bronze Shield from the inside and lead the Royal Court in was already Set in Stone as an act of treason.
"On behalf of Master, I now execute him for the cri of treason!" Qing Cang's voice was freezing cold. As his words fell, the Ancient King's Phantom Image above the Bronze Core extended a finger, and a streak of data Lightning Glow fell into Qin Yun's body.
Killing a Morning Star was extrely troubleso; Spirit-Flesh Unity was not just empty talk. Even though Qin Yun was already heavily injured, it would still take them quite a bit of effort to thoroughly kill him.
"You... have all been deceived..." Until the mont of his death, Qin Yun was still murmuring this sentence, his eyes gradually dimming.
Su Chen looked at Qin Yun's corpse, his gaze shifting slightly.
Lin Langtian and the others still had sowhat complex expressions on their faces, but there wasn't a sliver of pity in Qing Cang's eyes. He rely turned his head and looked through the brilliant barrier towards the location of the Royal Court's fleet.
"Now, it's ti to settle the score."
With the Starfire secure, without a true Radiant Moon coming, wanting to breach this place was a fool's dream.
Then the thod Master left behind naturally had other uses.
Qing Cang had A Slight Stir in One's Heart, and the massive Phantom Image above the Bronze Core abruptly withdrew. It transford into a wisp of Streaking Light, heading straight outside the barrier.
...
"There will never be an opportunity this good again."
King Peng withdrew his gaze and said dejectedly.
"Let's go." He lost interest. Continuing to stay here already had no aning whatsoever.
There was so unwillingness in Lu Feng's eyes, but looking at that Energy Barrier resplendent as green gold, he could only shake his head.
The figures of the several people flashed, and along with the Galaxy Throne, they all disappeared from the mothership.
When they returned to the command room, their expressions couldn't help but stall. They saw Han Xiao trembling all over, his face deathly pale, and his expression in a daze.
Not just him, the others in the command room were much the sa. So people even seed to have fainted.
"What's wrong? This mothership has an energy shock absorption system, the Aftermath from just now shouldn't have affected this place."
King Peng was puzzled. Han Xiao barely managed to maintain so reason and said in a trembling voice: "Sothing... sothing... happened. The Royal Capital is under attack! Zhou Lingtian brought the Longriver Clan to launch a surprise attack on the Royal Court! Also, Evil God Cultists from Crimson, Sly Fox, and Faceless Ghost have made a move!"
