Chapter 599: Chapter 599: Frequent Use of Powerful Moves

Shi Hao smiled, and the Little Star Universe unfolded.

He had previously kept the Little Star Universe confined to an area within a zhang around him, but now he had extended it to its utmost limit—identical to his domain.

In this twenty-zhang cubic space, the Star River was dazzling, the nebulae were like mist, comets danced, the Black Hole was unfathomable, ceaselessly drawing in any matter and energy, while the White Hole was charged yet unreleased.

Finally, there were no black and white rabbits anymore, and Shi Hao couldn’t help feeling immensely emotional.

The hum of the mist spread, enveloping Jing Yanghua and his three comrades.

When the ten Dharma appearances merged into one, it wasn’t that they could only be used together, they could still operate independently, with their power, furthermore, amplified.

Otherwise, what would be the meaning of merging the ten Dharma appearances?

Previously, when Shi Hao unfolded the Star Nebula Dharma Appearance, one could still see three zhang away in the Founding King Court, but now, it had drastically shrunk to a mere seven feet.

Instantly, Jing Yanghua and his companions were separated, left to struggle in isolation.

Shi Hao smiled and fixed his gaze on Song Jiande first.

Persimmons, of course, should be picked soft.

However, swift battles lead to swift decisions.

With a thought from Shi Hao, flames flickered over his hands.

Fire Scorches the Heavens!

Go!

In an instant, Shi Hao had charged up and released a ball of flame.

Song Jiande was on full alert, his face filled with shock, because when Shi Hao had used this move before, even from up in the stands, it could penetrate a distance of two or three zhang. Thus, he naturally thought that this move wasn’t a significant threat to the Founding King Court.

But now, his visibility had plummeted to seven feet!

Hiss, this guy has improved again.

A distance of seven feet was far too short, so short that if an attack came his way, he wouldn’t be able to react in time.

Therefore, he could only elevate his vitality to its peak, ready to face an attack that might come at any moment.

Boom!

Vaguely, he saw a ball of firelight.

It’s here.

In just an instant, the firelight blasted towards him, piercing through the mist, aiming straight for his face.

At such a short distance, Song Jiande had no chance to dodge. Fortunately, he had been on his guard, and he quickly slapped both palms out to meet the firelight.

However, he immediately turned pale with horror.

This flame was too terrifying; he could feel the frightful heat which had instantly evaporated much of the water inside his body.

Far too terrible!

Boom, before he could finish the thought, the fireball had already struck him.

After the hit surged past, Song Jiande was still standing, but his entire body had turned to charred ash, devoid of any signs of life.

With a thought from Shi Hao, he withdrew the mist.

Jing Yanghua and the other two were initially baffled, then they saw that Song Jiande was no longer in the field, replaced by a charred corpse.

After a moment of shock, intense chills rose in their hearts.

Could this... be Song Jiande?

Shi Hao was there, but Song Jiande was gone, meaning the charred body was most likely Song Jiande.

Good heavens, Song Jiande was the Eighth King, and such little time had passed, how could Shi Hao have killed Song Jiande in such a brief moment?

Shi Hao smiled faintly, "Three left."

Having said that, the mist unfolded again, shrouding Jing Yanghua and his two companions.

Now, Jing Yanghua and his companions were naturally even more anxious.

Shi Hao set his sights on Sha Rong, ready to unleash Fire Scorches the Heavens once again.

Boom!

He didn’t hesitate, nor did he show mercy just because she was a beautiful woman.

Those who sought to kill me had naturally forfeited their lives!

With Fire Scorches the Heavens unleashed, Sha Rong—who was merely on par with Song Jiande in terms of strength—couldn’t possibly withstand it and, in an instant, she turned into charred remains.

Shi Hao intentionally relieved the fog to exert pressure on Jing Yanghua and Wu Siyuan once more.

What!

Seeing that Sha Rong was gone and replaced by a charred corpse, both Jing Yanghua and Wu Siyuan felt a mix of rage and panic.

Sha Rong, a woman of extraordinary martial arts talent, was ardently pursued by them, but sadly, she had eyes only for Bei Yan and gave none of them any chance.

However, this did not deter Jing Yanghua and the others from continuing their pursuit; as long as Sha Rong remained unmarried, there was still hope for them.

But now, that hope was gone.

Not because she had married, but because she was dead!

This naturally enraged them, but at the same time, the ease with which Shi Hao annihilated two of the Eighth Kings also filled them with intense wariness and fear.

The Ninth King might be stronger than the Eighth, but not by a qualitative change.

Shi Hao smiled and set his sights on Jing Yanghua.

The White Hole erupted fiercely, whoosh, and terrible energy gushed forth, striking towards Jing Yanghua.

"You scoundrel, I’ve been waiting for you!" Jing Yanghua bellowed, as a Golden Spear materialized out of nowhere and clashed with the wave of energy.

Boom.

The energy from the White Hole surged past, leaving Jing Yanghua with a severed arm, yet he gripped the spear with his remaining hand and pointed it defiantly at Shi Hao.

True to his title as the Ninth King.

Shi Hao nodded secretly; the two Eighth Kings he previously ambushed had been killed without the chance to resist, but against the Ninth King, he had only managed to disable an arm.

Of course, that was also because the technique had changed; the eruption of the White Hole depended on the energy the Black Hole had absorbed, unlike Fire Scorches the Heavens, whose explosive power was fixed.

Shi Hao attacked, unleashing his full combat power instantaneously.

Boom, he thrust forward the Purple Thunder Spear, and his Stone Sphere Dharma Appearance mercilessly slammed down upon Jing Yanghua.

Bang!

Jing Yanghua parried the Stone Sphere with his spear, splitting his palm open but not caring at all. He discarded the spear and, withstanding another hit from the Purple Thunder Spear, rushed toward Shi Hao, reaching out his hand to seize him.

"Die!" All nine seats of the Nine King’s Court appeared, pressing down towards Shi Hao.

Shi Hao merely smiled, his Black Hole opened wide, and the incoming Royal Courts were absorbed one after another.

What, what?

Jing Yanghua was dumbfounded; those were his Royal Courts being so easily captured?

But in the next instant, boom, the nine Royal Courts spewed back out from the White Hole.

Although Shi Hao’s Black Hole was monstrously powerful, it could not annihilate the Nine King’s Courts completely. He had to discharge them or they would have damaged the Black Hole Physiognomy.

Having neutralized Jing Yanghua’s strike, Shi Hao immediately launched a punch.

His Physical Power activated, making his fist seem almost transparent.

Not the crystal-clear kind of transparency, but rather, like metal that had been seared through.

Boom, that punch was directed at Jing Yanghua.

Jing Yanghua had no choice but to endure it, only to be horrified to discover that his own blood qi was boiling, then burned away completely.

Bang, with one punch, his defenses became exceedingly brittle, and he was blown away; his body hadn’t even touched the ground before it transformed into flying ash.

The might of Physical Power was terrifying indeed.

Shi Hao’s body swayed slightly; despite appearing to have taken care of his opponents with just two or three moves, which ones weren’t heavy-hitters?

The strain on him was substantial.

Another enemy remained.

Shi Hao abruptly dispelled the fog, executed the Cloud Piercing Step, and charged at Wu Siyuan, unleashing the Sky-Flipping Seal.

This too was a heavy-hitter and also the most powerful technique at Shi Hao’s disposal.
