Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword-Chapter 585 - 564 Fu Family Mobilizes (1/3)

Zhou Heng flipped his palms and advanced towards Fu Wenbo.

Immortal Technique against Immortal Technique, Overturning Heaven Palm!

Boom!

A massive roar echoed as Zhou Heng was forced to retreat seven steps, but his expression remained unchanged. He was simply outmatched in strength, yet he did not suffer any disadvantage.

After all, an Eight-Wheel Moonlight Sovereign only equated to a One-Wheel Moonlight Emperor, or even just a Half-Wheel Moonlight Emperor!

This strike, neither side had used their full strength since they did not summon their Moon Wheels, but this exchange allowed them to understand each other quite well!

The opponent was a formidable enemy, not to be underestimated!

The power difference between a One and a Half-Wheel Moon was significant, but the rank of the Immortal Technique was sufficient to bridge the gap—a thousandfold burst of strength could compensate for a hundredfold difference in power.

It wasn’t unheard of for a Four-Wheel Moonlight Emperor to slay a Five, or even Six or Seven-Wheel Moonlight Emperor. One reason was the victim’s complacency, and the other was the role of Immortal Technique.

What truly concerned Fu Wenbo was that, although the palm techniques Zhou Heng learned were Immortal Techniques, they didn’t seem very powerful. Compared to those, the Moon Wheel Technique he used earlier put more pressure on him!

Unwilling to give Zhou Heng time to think, Fu Wenbo immediately launched a second wave of attacks, howling loudly. He intended to trap Zhou Heng into a fixed mindset—Immortal Technique against Immortal Technique, Moon Wheel Technique against Moon Wheel Technique.

The Blood Transformation Palm was activated; crimson starlight constantly flickered and furiously bombarded toward Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng’s fighting spirit soared as well; with a long howl, he cycled the Overturning Heaven Palm as swiftly as flying, the golden Divine Radiance shining brightly, he countered with unabated vigor.

Although he was slightly weaker in strength, possessing the robust physique of a Moonlight King allowed him not to mind even if he took some residual force.

One was slightly stronger in power, the other had a sturdier physique. Fu Wenbo had a slight edge on the scene, but he was far from suppressing Zhou Heng, so one could barely say the situation was evenly matched.

Fu Wenbo’s complexion grew increasingly unsightly. Was he, a dignified Two-Wheel Moonlight Emperor, actually drawing even with a Moonlight Sovereign?

No matter how monstrous that Moonlight Sovereign was, for him, this was an outrageous humiliation!

"Be subdued by me!" the old geezer finally went all out. Two full Moon Wheels emerged behind him, and deities also stepped out of his forehead, an ancient tree covered in thorns. Upon appearing, it swayed its branches and scattered black leaves.

The air suddenly became viscous.

This Wild Horse City was already known for its unusual gravity that limited speed. With this additional effect, moving became extremely difficult, as if one was mired in mud, where moving an inch was a struggle.

Empowered by the strength of Two full Moon Wheels, Fu Wenbo unleashed his Blood Transformation Palm with full force, blasting it at Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng let out a long howl and, unbelievably, suddenly sped up. He displayed an Eight Wheels Half Moon behind him, instantly moved behind Fu Wenbo, and slammed both palms towards Fu Wenbo’s back.

How is this possible!

He had clearly bound Zhou Heng’s speed with deities, so how could he suddenly accelerate? This totally defies logic!

Fu Wenbo internally screamed, but at this moment, it was too late for him to change his tactics. He could only fully guard his back and take Zhou Heng’s hit head-on.

Bang!

Zhou Heng’s palms struck down; the Overturning Heaven Palm channeled power on par with a Moonlight Emperor, filled with terrifying destructive force!

"Ahh—-" Fu Wenbo was directly sent flying hundreds of zhang, a stream of blood spraying wildly as he flew, and he was directly slammed into a wall, with only one foot still visible outside.

But in just an instant, the old fellow burst out from the wall. As a Moonlight Emperor, he wasn’t so easily defeated.

The exchange had put him at a disadvantage, but he wasn’t beaten yet.

However, everyone else who witnessed this scene found it breathtakingly astonishing.

They had anticipated that Zhou Heng possessed the might of Eight, Nine or even Ten Wheels Moon, capable of breaking through realm barriers. But speculation and seeing proof with their own eyes were entirely different matters!

Eight-Wheel Moonlight Sovereign!

When had they ever seen such a monstrous talent in their Xihai City?

Furthermore, this Eight-Wheel Moon was so pure, indicating that Zhou Heng’s perception was equally frightening, his path aligning closely with the Heavenly Dao, making it so pure!

Yet an Eight-Wheel Moon at most equaled a One-Wheel Moonlight Emperor. They could accept Zhou Heng drawing even with Fu Wenbo, but the idea of him defeating this top-tier expert of Wild Horse City...it was unimaginable!

This guy was not only monstrously talented but also mastered profound Immortal Techniques, thereby launching a surprise attack on Fu Wenbo, striking the seasoned Moonlight Emperor till he spat blood!

Both brave and cunning!

"Damned brat!" Fu Wenbo roared. He had never considered that he would be at a disadvantage before, more concerned with how to suppress Zhou Heng without making him feel utterly outmatched and triggering his urge to flee.

He hadn’t expected to be hit by Zhou Heng’s palm. Had he not reacted promptly, he might have had another hole in his chest!

He launched a full Two Wheels Moon attack at Zhou Heng, this time harboring not the slightest hint of underestimation in his heart. He fought with one hundred and twenty percent of his spirit and brought to bear his full battle power.

The face of the Fu Family couldn’t be lost! His own face couldn’t be lost either!

Boom!

Fu Wenbo unleashed gusts of fierce wind, which transformed into multiple thorny brambles, rolling towards Zhou Heng in an all-encompassing manner.

Zhou Heng burst into laughter, executing the Swift Cloud Radiant Step. With both fists swinging simultaneously, a golden Divine Radiance lit up the heavens and the earth. He slipped through gaps in Fu Wenbo’s attacks, launching what appeared to be straightforward but highly effective counters.

He did not employ the Overturning Heaven Palm again, for the Fu Family would no doubt send more people, and he had to conserve his strength.

Although Lian Jingxiang and Situ Ling would surely stand up for him when the time came, he did not want to owe them any favors.

Favors are such a hassle!

Although the Swift Cloud Radiant Step was also an Immortal Technique, it did not belong to the offensive category; thus, it consumed significantly less Spiritual Power. Furthermore, Zhou Heng did not need to exert his full strength—after all, it was just a mere Two Wheels Moonlight Emperor!

The fight was intense, primarily with Fu Wenbo on the offensive and Zhou Heng employing hit-and-run tactics. However, Zhou Heng occasionally launched fierce counterattacks, forcing Fu Wenbo into quite an embarrassing state.

After ten minutes, figures shrouded in powerful auras arrived, their intimidating presence enveloping the entire field, each emanating a chilling aura.

——The Moonlight Sovereign reinforcements of the Fu Family had arrived.

In places like Shen Immortal City or Noon Immortal City, a Moonlight Sovereign might not amount to much, but in Hai Immortal City, they were figures of the highest standing, each engrossed in their seclusion, striving to break through to the Sunshine Realm.

Thus, it took some time for these Old Ancestors to leave their seclusion after Fu Wenbo sent out his message, who would wait around on standby for a call to action?

Even so, not all Moonlight Sovereigns were mobilized. Two Seven Wheels Moonlight Sovereign Old Ancestors were at a critical juncture in their breakthrough and could not possibly stop, nor was it necessary to stop for a mere Eight-Wheel Moonlight King.

Together with Fu Wenbo, the Fu Family deployed eleven Moonlight Sovereigns this time, among them were two Six Wheels Moonlight Sovereigns. Surely, such an assembly couldn’t fail to suppress an Eight-Wheel Moonlight King?

They had more than enough strength to crush him a hundred times over!

"Wenbo, you’re having such a hard time dealing with a junior Moonlight King?" chuckled an Old Ancestor from the Fu Family. Although they were from the same family, he and Fu Wenbo were not on good terms, and he could not resist teasing him upon seeing the latter’s disheveled state.

"Hmph, you can try for yourself!" retorted Fu Wenbo coldly, his heart brimming with frustration, making him irritable towards everyone.

Zhou Heng’s figure flashed, widening the distance from Fu Wenbo, and momentarily halting the battle. He looked towards the hovering Moonlight Sovereigns of the Fu Family and said indifferently, "One-on-one isn’t working, so now you’re ganging up? The Fu Family really knows how to ’shine.’

His words turned the faces of the Moonlight Sovereigns of the Fu Family red.

But they had no intention of stopping. Zhou Heng had killed Fu Zewen and publicly tortured Fu Liding; if they failed to take Zhou Heng down, could the Fu Family still hold their heads high in Wild Horse City?

Moreover, an Eight-Wheel Moonlight King had already breached the Realm barrier, possessing a might comparable to that of a Moonlight Sovereign. Defeating such an entity was simple, but killing or capturing him was exceedingly difficult; it required a substantial number of Experts of the same Realm to form a joint attack!

If there were too few, Zhou Heng could potentially fight like a cornered beast and drag one of them down with him!

Therefore, deploying such an overwhelming force was not exaggeration—it was a precaution!

"Boy, you have no chance, surrender!" commanded a Six Wheels Moonlight Sovereign of the Fu Family, deliberately releasing his Moon Wheel, with six full moons spinning and exerting a terrifying pressure.

"Very well," said Zhou Heng, hands behind his back, "Who will capture me?"

This!

The Moonlight Sovereigns of the Fu Family exchanged looks. The previous statement was just a formality; they were supposed to rush at Zhou Heng after he stubbornly responded. But they did not expect Zhou Heng to actually "surrender," putting them in a difficult position.

Of course, they did not believe that Zhou Heng would really "surrender," yet now that he had adopted a "surrender" stance, if they didn’t even have the courage to "capture" him, how could they continue to operate in Wild Horse City?

"I will!" steamed Fu Wenbo, still seething with anger and having previously fought Zhou Heng, he had gained some understanding of his opponent and stepped forward.

He dared not be careless, channeling Spiritual Power throughout his body, leaving deep footprints on the ground with every step. This indicated his utter preparedness; he could no longer control the overflowing Spiritual Power.

Zhou Heng, however, remained relaxed, looking up at the stars in the sky as if he did not take Fu Wenbo seriously at all.

The difference in their abilities was blatantly clear.

The onlookers snickered; each of them had the backing of a Moonlight Sovereign. Even if they couldn’t match up to the Fu Family, so what? Would the Fu Family dare to start a war with their clans over a snicker?

Moreover, there’s safety in numbers. How many people were there? So many powers combined were not just an issue for the Fu Family but would also cause a headache for the Situ Family!

When Fu Wenbo approached within three feet of Zhou Heng, his eyes suddenly flashed with ferocity, and he slapped both palms towards Zhou Heng’s chest.

But at the moment his palms struck out, Zhou Heng also moved—and moved faster. A streak of black light flashed, cutting swiftly across Fu Wenbo’s right arm!

Swift Cloud Radiant Step combined with Feiyu Seven Swords!

Zhou Heng, after holding back for so long, finally struck with an astonishing sword!(To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation tickets and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read at m.qidian.com.)
