Battle Continues

"Yuan Tian, you've gone too far!"

Well now, Po Hun was saying Yuan Tian had gone too far. Before this, Wo You remembered Yuan Tian accusing Po Hun of the same thing. So who exactly had gone too far? Wo You had no idea. Perhaps both of them had this hobby—whenever they were at a disadvantage, they accused the other of going too far. That was only human nature, and perfectly understandable.

"Gone too far? I'm going too far with you. What can you do about it?" Clearly, Yuan Tian did not take Po Hun's words seriously. If I'm not bullying you, then who should I bully? Let you bully me instead? Was that possible?

"Four Symbols Turn to Slay Heaven, gather!!!" Po Hun was enraged. Everyone had a temper. After being suppressed and beaten for so long, how could he not be angry? Even a clay Buddha had to flare up eventually, let alone Po Hun, who was steeped in Sha Qi and killing intent. This situation had to change.

As Po Hun spoke, Yuan Tian clearly sensed four immense streams of saber qi shooting from Po Hun's Four Symbols Heaven-Slaying Formation. Carrying unmatched Sha Qi, they hurtled toward Yuan Tian's Chaos Star Formation. They were actually saber qi formed from Sha Qi itself. Everywhere the saber qi passed, Stars were ground into nothingness. Only after nearly a hundred Stars had been obliterated did those four streams of saber qi finally vanish. Seeing this, Yuan Tian could not help swallowing again. This was far too terrifying. The power contained in each stream of saber qi was absolutely no weaker than that of a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal. What kind of power was this? Most importantly, it had not been unleashed by four Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals or experts above the Quasi-Sage realm, but by three Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals and one "half-dead" Zenith Heaven True Immortal. And from the looks of it, they had not even used their full strength. How could Yuan Tian not be shocked?

I can't let them keep this up, or won't they grind me flat? Star Shift!

The Stars within the formation seemed to decrease, yet also seemed to increase, giving off an utterly illusory feeling. Then, suddenly, the Stars moved. Countless Stars swept down upon Po Hun and the others like the sky collapsing over the earth. Yuan Tian intended to settle everything in one stroke and wipe out Po Hun's group at once. This time, Yuan Tian had truly paid a bloody price. After this attack, his mana fell to only around twenty percent. He had barely recovered to fifty percent through absorbing star power and drawing on what mana remained from before, but now thirty percent had vanished in one go. Yuan Tian nearly collapsed from exhaustion. Still, it was all worth it. This time, Yuan Tian was confident he could utterly destroy Po Hun and the others. Their battle had gone on far too long, and Yuan Tian truly could not endure it any longer.

Countless Stars crashed into Po Hun's Four Symbols Heaven-Slaying Formation. Some Stars entered the formation and were ground flat by the Sha Qi contained within it. Yet even more Stars carried on the task their fallen "warriors" had failed to complete. They gave Po Hun and the others not a moment's respite, charging at them one after another without pause. Finally, a thunderous BOOM rang out, so loud that even the Chaos Star Formation trembled.

After a long while, every sound ceased. It was as though even time had stopped. Everything seemed so peaceful, yet so strange.

"Is it over? It should be over, right?" Looking at everything before him, Yuan Tian could not help thinking. It was finally over. A sudden wave of weariness washed over him, something he had never felt since being reborn in the Primordial Wilderness. But after fighting Po Hun for so long, with the battle being so intense and without a single moment of rest, Yuan Tian truly felt tired. Right now, he desperately wanted to rest properly. It seemed he had not slept in far too long.

Before that, Yuan Tian still needed to clean up the battlefield properly. First, he had to confirm whether Po Hun was dead. Although Yuan Tian did not really believe Po Hun could have survived an attack of that intensity, confirming it would put his mind at ease. Otherwise, he would feel uneasy.

Of course, confirming whether Po Hun was finished was important, but other matters were important too. For instance, Yuan Tian could collect his spoils of war. After such a long, high-intensity battle, it was time to reap the harvest.

Yuan Tian had been extremely covetous of Po Hun's Po Hun Saber. The saber was the courage of all weapons, the weapon of dominance. Yuan Tian loved that sort of thing. Now that he had a chance to pocket such a rare weapon, Yuan Tian would absolutely not stand on ceremony. Nor was there any need to—if he did not take it, it would only go to waste. Still, it seemed a little too early for Yuan Tian to start thinking about spoils.

BOOM!!!

"Huh? What was that? Could Po Hun and the others not be dead?" Hearing another explosive sound in this silent space, Yuan Tian could not help harboring that suspicion.

As though to confirm Yuan Tian's thoughts, someone spoke.

"Hehe, Yuan Tian, you didn't expect me to still be alive, did you?" There was no need to guess. It was Po Hun's voice.

"I didn't expect it. I truly didn't expect it. Po Hun, don't tell me you transformed from a cockroach? You still didn't die after all that. You really have a huge life." Yuan Tian was now genuinely filled with incomparable admiration for Po Hun's tenacious vitality. He had seen people with tough lives before, but never one this tough.

"Hehe, of course I have a huge life. But could you explain what a 'cockroach' is?"

"Huh?" Yuan Tian truly had not expected Po Hun to ask such a question. But in the spirit of helping others, Yuan Tian magnanimously told him, "A cockroach is an insect. Cockroaches have incredibly strong vitality, so I called you one. Do you understand now?"

Po Hun was speechless. That bastard Yuan Tian had actually compared him to a lowly creature like a cockroach. This was unforgivable! He was a great innate demon god, an innate demon god possessing the inheritance of a Primordial Chaos Demon God. How could he be described as such a thing?!

Yuan Tian had not the slightest interest in what Po Hun was thinking. He was more interested in how Po Hun had survived an attack of such power. Moreover, Po Hun did not seem injured at all. How had his originally grievously wounded body even recovered somewhat? Could Po Hun truly have transformed from a cockroach? Otherwise, why was he getting better the more they fought? Since there was a question, naturally he had to ask it. Yuan Tian had always been a good student who was never ashamed to ask questions.

"Fine, seeing as you answered my question earlier, I'll magnanimously tell you." Well now, Po Hun was truly a model of forgetting the pain once he had eaten his fill. How long had it been? Yet he was already acting arrogant again. "The reason I did not die is because of my demon god avatars. It was their protection that kept this venerable one from being killed by you, brat. Hmph, hmph. Unfortunately, several of my avatars were grievously injured because of this, and you nearly destroyed one of this venerable one's spirit treasures. Now, we shall settle both old grudges and new debts together." The more Po Hun spoke, the angrier he became. Even if he had not said anything, he would still have been furious.

Oh, right. Only after hearing Po Hun mention his demon god avatars did Yuan Tian remember that he had yet to see Po Hun's three avatars. So they had been grievously injured and put away by Po Hun. Yuan Tian felt like a complete failure. Such a powerful strike had merely heavily injured several avatars instead of killing them outright. What a failure.

Wait, Po Hun said I nearly damaged one of his spirit treasures. What spirit treasure? Was it his Po Hun Saber? But wasn't that perfectly intact in his hand? Then what was it? Yuan Tian was confused and could not help examining Po Hun again. Huh? What was that beneath Po Hun's feet? Why did its shape look so familiar? That was...
