Divine King of Honour-Chapter 612 - Star Shield
"Clang!"
Xu Nian parried with his sword held across.
Xia Longyuan's Star Shattering Mountain Palm struck directly onto the blade of Xu Nian's sword.
It sounded like the deep, resonant tolling of a giant bell.
Xu Nian instantly felt an incredibly terrifying power pouring down the blade.
"Boom!"
Xu Nian took a forceful step backward.
The ground cracked instantly, and one foot sank half a foot into the earth, finally blocking the fearsome force.
"Hmph, you've blocked one palm, but can you block my second one!" Xia Longyuan smirked slightly, a sharp light flashing in his eyes.
Another palm shot straight towards Xu Nian's face.
Clearly, Xia Longyuan had planned this sequence of attacks,
each one linked to the next, all leading up to this final strike.
Therefore, the power of this palm was far greater than the previous one.
The two men were very close to each other, and with Xia Longyuan's swift movement,
it was nearly impossible for Xu Nian to dodge.
"Hum!"
However, at this moment, Xia Longyuan felt the space around him stretched suddenly.
His figure was, in an instant, pulled away from Xu Nian.
Naturally, his attack missed its mark.
"Damn it, it's the power of space again."
Xia Longyuan cursed inwardly.
Space Power was unpredictably strange.
Once activated, it was very difficult to contend with.
Xu Nian, who wielded Space Power, was quite a difficult opponent to handle.
A sharp light flashed in Xu Nian's eyes, and his figure soared out, mysteriously disappearing into thin air.
Xia Longyuan's eyes sharpened instantly, and he vigilantly scanned his surroundings.
"Hum!"
A wave of spatial fluctuation came from the left side.
Without a moment's hesitation, Xia Longyuan unleashed a palm strike towards the left.
However, his attack hit nothing but void.
"Hum!"
At the same time, a figure appeared behind him in an instant, bringing down a sword slash.
The sword light was sharply fierce, containing an extremely powerful Cutting Force.
"Not good!"
Xia Longyuan was alarmed and hastily deployed Star Protection.
A surge of starlight swelled, and a metallic shield appeared in his hand.
"Clang!"
Xu Nian's Sword Radiance struck upon the shield, creating a grating sound.
The tip of the sword clashed with the shield, creating bright sparks.
"Eh?"
Xu Nian was startled; his Dimension Cutting Profound Argumentation-imbued Sword Radiance
hadn't managed to penetrate the metal shield.
He immediately struck with his sword again.
"Clang!"
The result was still the same.
Xu Nian's Sword Radiance bombarded the shield, which directly dissipated the blow.
The moment Xu Nian's attack hit the shield, he distinctly felt an Immortal Talisman emerge upon it.
This talisman was exactly the same as the one on the Iron Tower man.
With the emergence of this talisman, Xu Nian's attack was completely dissipated.
"It's no use, this shield is an Ancient Spiritual Artifact I obtained from a relic, covered with a layer of Ancient Immortal Seal. Your attacks simply cannot break through it," Xia Longyuan said disdainfully.
Armed with the shield, he feared no attack.
Even if the attack was powerful, the shield could weaken seventy percent of its strength.
The remaining power transmitted to his arm was only thirty percent, its force greatly diminished.
"Such a strong shield, now Genius Emperor Xu Nian's attacks will not have any effect at all."
"Indeed, Xu Nian is in trouble now, his attacks are ineffective, and the Eighth Prince can continuously launch attacks and slowly exhaust Xu Nian to death."
```
...
The crowd all around was buzzing with discussion.
One after another began to view Xu Nian with increasing pessimism.
Although Eighth Prince held an advantage with his treasures,
being able to possess such treasures was in itself a manifestation of mighty strength.
Xu Nian, gazing at the shield in Xia Longyuan's hands, also flashed a hint of solemnity in his eyes.
He had not expected that Eighth Prince would have such a Spiritual Artifact shield.
Furthermore, atop the Spiritual Energy shield was an Immortal Seal.
Xia Longyuan had already mentioned that he had found the shield in the Ancient Relics.
If that was the case, then the seals on the Iron Tower man must be similar.
It was just that the Iron Tower man clearly did not know how to activate the seal.
Otherwise, it would have taken some effort for Xu Nian to kill him.
It was apparent that Xia Longyuan knew a bit more than the Iron Tower man.
Indeed, it was because of the activation of that seal that Xu Nian's attack had not had the slightest effect.
"Xu Nian, I must say, your Space Profound Argumentation is truly formidable. For an ordinary Battle Emperor Level expert, it would indeed be very difficult to defend against. However, your attacks have no effect on me, so you have lost this battle," Xia Longyuan said with a taunting look in his eyes.
Space Profound Argumentation, unpredictable and impossible to guard against,
But with Xia Longyuan's added defense of a "turtle shell",
he naturally did not fear Xu Nian's assassination attempt.
"Declaring my loss now? Aren't you a little too early in your celebration?"
Suddenly, Xu Nian sneered mockingly.
Following that, a strong green light suddenly surged in Xu Nian's eyes.
And with the outbreak of this green light,
Xia Longyuan's entire body stiffened instantly.
"Ah!"
Then Xia Longyuan clutched his head and let out an extremely painful scream.
Simultaneously, Xu Nian's body shot out in a flash.
Indeed, Xu Nian had used the Gray Dragon Eye.
Now, Xu Nian's Soul power had reached the Nine-star War Emperor Level.
So, what if Xia Longyuan possessed a defensive shield?
As long as he saw Xu Nian's eyes, his soul would be subject to Xu Nian's Soul Attack.
"Die!"
Xu Nian bellowed, and his Immortal Sword immediately swung down in a slash.
Xia Longyuan's eyes widened in terror, trying to mount a defense.
But the agony from deep within his soul rendered him incapable of focusing.
"Clang!"
Xu Nian's sword came down.
Directly atop the shield.
This time, no seal lit up on the shield.
The powerful force generated by the sharp sword sent Xia Longyuan flying away.
"Boom!"
With a loud crash, Xia Longyuan's figure plummeted to the ground like a meteorite, thunderously smashing into the earth.
Xu Nian, witnessing this scene, did not stop there.
Instead, he executed the Mixed Element Slash.
Three successive slashes were made.
Three terrifying Sword Radiance instantly bombarded the crater.
Tearing open three deep and massive sword gashes.
Dust filled the sky, and dirt flew everywhere.
"What... what's going on here?" The crowd gaped in astonishment.
How did Xia Longyuan suddenly scream in agony, and why didn't he activate the Immortal Seal in the face of Xu Nian's attack?
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
Everyone's gaze turned toward the direction of the crater.
Dust filled the air, obscuring everything.
"Did Eighth Prince die?" someone speculated.
"It's possible; those three Sword Radiance were very powerful. Perhaps the Eighth Prince didn't block them!" someone else chimed in.
For a moment, everyone's eyes turned to the figure of Xu Nian in the sky, their gazes filled with immense respect.
Xu Nian stood there with his sword, his face showing not a hint of relaxation.
"Boom!"
Sure enough, at that moment, from the dust-filled crater erupted a terrifying thunderburst.
