Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword

Zhong Gufeng returned to Zhou Heng’s side and struck up a conversation again as if what had just happened was a trivial matter.

But the way people looked at him was completely different now. This was the Imperial Dragon Hall, where everyone’s cultivation level was suppressed to that of a Sunshine King. Being able to easily defeat a Seven-Wheel Sunshine King meant that Zhong Gufeng was considered a super expert here!

Worthy of befriending, worthy of winning over!

As they listened to Zhong Gufeng and Zhou Heng’s conversation, learning that Zhou Heng was actually still the target Zhong Gufeng aimed to surpass, everyone was almost fainting!

The greater the genius, the prouder they were, the less willing they were to admit defeat. For Zhong Gufeng to willingly acknowledge his inferiority, just how powerful must Zhou Heng be?

Terrifying!

But who on earth was this guy? Such a young prodigy should have already been famously known across the world, right?

If there was anyone to blame, it could only be that Zhou Heng’s appearance had changed drastically from an originally tall, young man to what seemed like a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy now. Even Zhong Gufeng almost failed to recognize him earlier, so how could others possibly connect him with the name Zhou Heng?

This was the world of the supreme Sunshine Kings, and with Zhong Gufeng establishing his might in a single fight, naturally, no one else blind enough would come over to ask them to push the door and do the hard labor.

"How many days have you been here?" Zhou Heng asked casually.

"Just two days." Zhong Gufeng answered, pointing to the great door ahead, "There aren’t enough people here yet. At least three times more people are needed, all exerting their strength together before the door can be opened!"

"How do you know?" Zhou Heng was a bit curious.

"Compared to two days ago, the door has loosened a bit, but the current strength is still not enough to fully open it!" Zhong Gufeng said seriously.

"Looks like we have to wait!"

There were not a few people with the same insight as Zhong Gufeng; that’s why they weren’t in a hurry to act and instead started sipping tea nearby. Because anything they did at this moment would be a waste of energy; they had to wait for more people to arrive.

One day, two days, more and more people gathered, among them were the Divine Aspects of two Creation Realm experts who contended with Zhou Heng for the Heart of Wood. They turned green when they saw Zhou Heng.

First shocked, then deeply ashamed, they had been scared into a panicked flight by a mere Sunshine King. It was unclear where these two had been in the past few days, actually arriving later than Zhou Heng.

"Ah, One Sword Breaks the Heavens has arrived!"

A commotion suddenly arose in the crowd, quickly leading to an uproar. They saw more than a dozen powerful Sunshine Kings surrounding a handsome young man, each exuding an air of absolute superiority.

These dozen or so Sunshine Kings were all incredibly strong, and each one came from a prestigious family and was already a famous genius in their own right. But now, they willingly followed an even more dazzling talent.

One Sword Breaks the Heavens, Wu Qi!

In over a month’s absence, Wu Qi had become even stronger. There was Divine Light fluttering around him, his aura was powerful to the point of being terrifying yet also very subtle, truly possessing the demeanor of a supreme sovereign.

He must have experienced some fortuitous encounter to have become countless times stronger than before, as if a mere glance from him could shatter a Peak Sunshine King!

Zhou Heng’s expression tightened, a strong desire for battle coursing through him—he longed for a fight!

Previously, at Hu Mei’s banquet, Wu Qi’s sudden attack nearly blasted him to death. At the time, he was only a Moonlight Emperor, able to protect himself, but to defeat Wu Qi was utterly impossible!

And he had also refrained from attacking out of respect for Hu Mei.

Now, he was thirsting for battle.

"Is this the one called One Sword Breaks the Heavens? Indeed, he has the aura of an unbeatable supreme, like a young divine deity!"

"His fortune is shocking; he definitely obtained some amazing benefits here, breaking through the shackles of the Ten Wheels Moon, capable of breaching realm barriers in one fell swoop!"

"Too strong! Just one look instills fear in my heart!"

"If the Cold Frost Young Master and his group haven’t gained the same fortune, then Wu Qi might emerge as the sole supreme!"

"Among kings, there is always only one!"

Amidst everyone’s buzzing discussions, Wu Qi strode forward, and everyone involuntarily stepped back twice to make way for this young supreme.

Even Sunshine Sovereigns and Sublimation Emperors, how would that matter here? The circumstances were unique; only the current supreme Sunshine Kings, or those who once were, could truly claim to be kings—of course, if a Creation Realm expert was willing to sacrifice a Divine Aspect, killing a supreme Sunshine King would be as easy as flipping one’s hand.

But which Creation Realm expert would be willing to make such a sacrifice?

As soon as a supreme Sunshine King of Eleven Wheels, or possibly even stronger, arrived, he immediately became the brightest star of the event, inciting the envy of numerous young men and stirring the hearts of countless women who wished they could throw themselves at him, longing for a chance to follow such a powerful figure, such a prodigy.

Because becoming a follower of such a young supreme carried the chance of reaping enormous benefits as the individual rose to power, with the potential to become a great personage who would command respect from all around in the future.

But Wu Qi quickly stopped—someone was blocking his path.

Who dared to be so bold?

Everyone was shocked; wasn’t this courting death?

They all turned to look and saw that it was a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy, handsome and spirited, radiating faint golden Divine Light all around him!

"Eh, isn’t that the boy from earlier?"

"This is also a formidable prodigy, but his aura is clearly not as powerful as Wu Qi’s. If he were to fight Wu Qi, he would be utterly defeated!"

"What a pity, why the rush?"

People did not dare to underestimate Zhou Heng; he was a young prodigy. If he were allowed to grow, he surely wouldn’t be inferior to One Sword Breaks the Heavens. But for now, it was clear he was a notch below Wu Qi!

Wu Qi looked at Zhou Heng, revealing a hint of surprise. He could sense Zhou Heng’s strength, but he really didn’t know him at all!

Did he want to become his follower, or did he harbor great ambitions, aiming to defeat him and make a name for himself in one battle?

Wu Qi had the heart of an invincible warrior and the magnanimity of an emperor. He did not mind accepting a talented follower. He was confident that he could win over everyone around him, to serve him willingly.

Therefore, Wu Qi did not immediately become angry; instead, he revealed a smile and said, "Who are you?"

"What does it matter who I am? Let’s fight!" Zhou Heng declared loudly, his fighting spirit soaring to the skies.

"How dare you!" An extremely beautiful woman among Wu Qi’s followers immediately reprimanded. She was not human, with two verdant wings on her back, shimmering with glaze luster.

It was not only her; the other followers also showed angry faces. They revered Wu Qi as a Heavenly God, how could they tolerate anyone being disrespectful to him! freēwēbηovel.c૦m

Wu Qi did not stop her. He felt that Zhou Heng must be very strong, but how strong, he was not clear on; this was a good opportunity for his subordinates to test. If Zhou Heng were all show and no substance, then there was no need to take him under his command.

The gorgeous woman stepped forward, her beauty breathtaking, with her ample bosom and slender waist creating an extremely sensual charm. Yet she was as cold as frost, her gaze filled with killing intent toward Zhou Heng.

She was from the Feather Tribe, with a trace of the Qingluan Divine Bird bloodline, making her talent astonishingly strong. Yet, she had been subdued by Wu Qi, and willingly served him as her master.

Those disrespectful to the master, must be killed without mercy!

Whoosh!

She immediately launched an attack, swinging her right hand, and a gust of wind transformed into a large cyan bird, swooping down on Zhou Heng.

The attack was both fast and fierce; she was intent on not just defeating Zhou Heng but also on taking his life!

Zhou Heng’s brow furrowed; this woman had a vicious heart, actually striking with the intent to kill him!

"Scram!" He scolded sharply, and the aura of the Martial King suddenly burst forth, crashing towards her like a hammer.

Splat!

The Feather Tribe woman shuddered violently, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood. Staggering backward, she spewed blood with every step she took, and her lovely face turned as pale as paper.

So strong!

Everyone was shocked; the aura of the Martial King possessed the power to suppress martial artists of the same realm, but it was unheard of to inflict direct harm!

"You... you’ve ruined a cycle of my Red Sun Power!" The Feather Tribe woman, a trail of blood at the corner of her mouth and full of rage, accused Zhou Heng.

"You should be thankful I showed restraint; otherwise, what you would lose would not be a cycle of Red Sun Power, but your life!" Zhou Heng stated indifferently. Probably only he within the entire Immortal Realm could use his aura as a direct method of attack.

"Bastard!" Another man with an imposing figure jumped out, his muscular body exuding a sense of power and oppression, his presence far surpassing the Feather Tribe woman!

Of course, that was to be expected; the Feather Tribe woman was only a Seven-Wheel Sun King, but he was a Peak Eight-Wheel Sun King, breaking the limit!

He was pursuing the Feather Tribe woman and seeing his beloved injured, he was naturally furious, rushing out immediately.

"Die!" The burly man bellowed, the Eight Wheels of Red Sun rotating behind him. He clenched his fist, transforming it into a massive hammer, and smashed it down on Zhou Heng’s head.

—He knew Zhou Heng’s strength was extraordinarily powerful, so he went all out from the start.

Murderous intent grew in Zhou Heng’s heart. Did they really think he was so easy to talk to? They had repeatedly tried to kill him!

His right fist clenched, he stepped forward to meet the burly man’s attack.

Both men were straightforward, contesting strength and Immortal Law without resorting to any tricks.

Boom!

Both fists collided, and with a snap, the burly man’s fist instantly burst into blood rain, while Zhou Heng’s fist continued without hindrance, splattering blood rain with snap after snap, and the burly man was entirely blown apart!

Divine Aspect and physique destroyed!

Gulp!

Countless people spat out their drinks; this was too exaggerated!

Zhou Heng was strong, which everyone could sense, and he had already proven so by shattering a cycle of Red Sun of the Feather Tribe woman with his aura alone. But no one had imagined that he could be so strong that he could burst a transcendent Peak Sun King into a blood rain with a single punch!

Wu Qi’s expression changed as well. He also had not expected Zhou Heng’s battle power to be so horrifying that he didn’t even get the chance to help.

The death of a mere follower wasn’t something he particularly cared about, but he couldn’t tolerate all this happening under everyone’s watchful eyes, making him feel as though someone had forcefully slapped his face!

He gazed at Zhou Heng, with killing intent and battle spirit rising simultaneously. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to recommend tickets and monthly passes at Qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please go to m.qidian.com to continue reading.)
