“I knew it was you, Beiming Zhishang.” The Divine King spoke.

　　He was the uncle of the current Grand Chancellor, Beiming Moshou and a top expert from this clan who was in the same generation as the Divine King. They fought three times and he lost all three.

　　“Feiyun is a deadman. Long Chuanfeng, you won’t be able to protect him.” Zhishang sneered.

　　“You’re courting death if you want to kill my successor!” Two golden rays shot out from the king’s eyes like thunder flas.h.i.+ng in the sky. Zhishang quickly retreated into the clouds and summoned his Moon Mountain Cauldron to stop the two rays.

　　“Rumble!”

　　The king channeled a yellow spirit energy and condensed it into a saber before slas.h.i.+ng forward.

　　This was the fifth slash of the Dragon King’s Saber Art. The yellow dragon energy materialized into physical form and split the sky. This was countless times stronger than Feiyun’s art.

　　“Boom!” The cauldron almost broke from the impact. Zhishang’s shoulder had a large wound after being struck by the saber art with blood gus.h.i.+ng out.

　　“Long Chuanfeng, you… you have actually reached ninth-level Heaven’s Mandate, a Paramount Giant now…” Fear appeared on Zhishang’s face.

　　“Just using the power of the eighth-level alone is enough to take you down in three moves.” The Divine King replied.

　　The two exchanged their best moves again. Some amazing techniques actually had comparable might to a spirit treasure.

　　After just three moves, Beiming Zhishang vomited blood and lost for the second time. He didn’t dare to linger around this time and screamed: “Long Chuanfeng, you win this time but it’s not just my clan today. There are experts even stronger than me coming. You’re going to pay a great price to protect the boy.”

　　Zhishang disappeared from sight instantly using a heaven-defying art.

　　“You think you can leave that easily?” The Divine King was truly enraged today and wanted to kill him in order to make a point.

　　He has been quiet for too long so people have forgotten about his bloodthirst. They actually dared to come and try to kill his successor? That’s simply not putting him in their eyes.

　　Must kill to intimidate others!

　　“Whoos.h.!.+” He swung his palm and a saber wave in the shape of a dragon flew out towards the horizon, aiming straight for Zhishang.

　　This was the sixth slash of the saber art!

　　A second miserable scream resounded for a thousand miles. A beautiful rain of blood fell down from the sky; another Giant has fallen.

　　“Long Chuanfeng… you win this time…” Zhishang used the other wounded Giant to stop the saber wave and seized the chance to escape.

　　“He’s good at running.” The Divine King wanted to attack again. However, a powerful shockwave came from behind him. Another person has attacked Feiyun while he was away.

　　He slightly s.h.i.+fted his body and rushed back with a jade seal in his hand. The power of the spirit treasure caused thunders to strike everywhere in the sky.

　　Two more half-step Giant and an actual Giant have been killed. Their body exploded into a mist of blood up above.

　　The Divine King was simply unstoppable with flowers of blood staining his clothes and circulating white draconic energy. He loomed above and declared: “Try if you wish to die!”

　　His majestic voice caused the clouds to tremble.

　　The scene became eerily quiet. None of the hiding masters dared to retort.

　　The blood of the Giants was still burning and painting the mountains red. Everyone felt that this was the scene of h.e.l.l.

　　He was too powerful and had eliminated three Giants and two half-steps. Who could actually oppose his murderous prestige right now?

　　Feiyun was fighting against the tribulation underground but he could still feel the amazing battle raging above. It was definitely of the Giant level.

　　The twelfth lava wave was much more powerful than his imagination. It shattered both the six diagrams and the Heaven Battle Altar. The aura surrounding his body was being melted away. His flesh was finally invaded by this earthly energy. Luckily, the nine thousand beast souls were stopping this refining process.

　　Half of his hair has been burnt with wounds everywhere but he still managed to rush out of this lava wave.

　　“Feiyun has surpa.s.sed the twelfth wave now, is he first-level Heaven’s Mandate…” This speaker immediately shuts up before finis.h.i.+ng.

　　“Wait, he’s not coming out completely but drilling even deeper. What the heck is going on?” Many experts used their divine intents to find him and found him sinking even more below.

　　At first, he was several hundred meters deep. Now, one thousand… two thousands… and even more. He almost disappeared from their sensing range.

　　These divine intents were stopped by the thick soil. Even first-level Heaven’s Mandate had a range limit of one thousand meters underground.

　　The Divine King had a tinge of joy and austerity in his expression: “This is the legendary thirteenth wave.”

　　Everyone was shocked including Zhang Badao. This was the first time they heard about it since they a.s.sumed the twelfth was the limit.
