Chapter 516: Chapter 516: Battle with Marquis Zi Qing

Marquis Zi Qing, "I genuinely wish to see if, having entered the Six-star Martial Venerable Realm, you have the ability to withstand a full-force strike from me!"

Shi Feng’s face was a picture of solemnity as he watched Zi Xiao. There was no question that he could block a strike with his Blood-colored Battle Armor at the Nine-star Martial Venerable Realm. However, he was acutely aware that if a prolonged battle ensued, he was no match for him.

But he had to fight! "Nine Nether Soul-Shocking Seal!" The Ghost Face Mask instantly appeared on Shi Feng’s face, and a Soul Attack known as the Nine Nether Soul-Shocking Seal thundered towards Zi Xiao.

Despite being a peak Nine-star Martial Venerable, Zi Xiao’s head throbbed with sudden pain under the Half-Saint Level Soul Power attack as Shi Feng donned the Ghost Face Mask, and he looked up with an agonized expression, emitting a pained howl to the sky.

This turn of events for Zi Xiao caused the complexions of the thirteen Dragon Elephant Cavalry behind him to change dramatically. The usually calm, icy, and composed Marquis Zi Qing actually made such a pained sound—something they had never imagined possible.

After launching the Soul Attack on Zi Xiao, Shi Feng’s left hand flicked as he threw the Full Moon Scimitar, which was already charged with power, violently towards Zi Xiao.

The Full Moon Scimitar spun through the air, hurtling towards Zi Xiao’s head with great speed.

"Marquis! Be careful!" The thirteen Dragon Elephant Cavalry behind Zi Xiao noticed Shi Feng’s attack and sensed a mysterious and inscrutable power from the Full Moon Scimitar.

Nevertheless, being a Nine-star Martial Venerable in Martial Arts Cultivation, Zi Xiao quickly recovered from the Nine Nether Soul-Shocking Seal. Recalling the previous headache, a fierce look immediately came over his cold face. He saw the Full Moon Scimitar spinning quickly toward him and thrust forward with his Green-purple Long Spear.

With a sharp clang, the scimitar and the spear tip collided. But under the Nine-star Martial Venerable Power of Zi Xiao, the power Shi Feng had infused into the Full Moon Scimitar was instantly dispersed by a single spear thrust.

After sending the Full Moon Scimitar spinning back, Zi Xiao’s cold face suddenly frowned. He looked up to see a square, mountain-sized, bone-white imprint floating in the void above, enveloping both him and the thirteen Dragon Elephant Cavalry below.

The Nine Nether Four Extremes Seal!

Just now, while Shi Feng had initiated the Nine Nether Soul-Shocking Seal and launched an attack with the Full Moon Scimitar, he took the opportunity to form the Nine Nether Four Extremes Seal in the void.

"This! This power!"

"How strong! How can it be, how can a Six-star Martial Venerate have the ability to unleash such formidable power! What kind of Martial Skill is this!"

With the appearance of the Nine Nether Four Extremes Seal, the faces of the thirteen Dragon Elephant Cavalry below changed drastically, and they showed a look of shock, sensing a power they were utterly unable to contend with enveloping them.

"The Nine Nether Four Extremes Seal! This is the Nine Nether Four Extremes Seal! No wonder it’s so strong! This is one of the ultimate skills created by Emperor Nine Nether in his lifetime. How does this youth know Emperor Nine Nether’s ultimate teachings? Could he be the Nine Nether’s Inheritor?" Among the Dragon Elephant Cavalry, someone recognized the mountain-sized seal as one of Emperor Nine Nether’s ultimate skills—the Nine Nether Four Extremes Seal—and cried out in alarm.

"Marquis, should we initiate the Purple-Green Battle Formation?" someone among the Dragon Elephant Cavalry said at this time.

"Nine Nether Four Extremes Seal? Peak Nine-star Martial Venerable power!" Zi Xiao, with a raised head, muttered to himself without answering his subordinate’s question, a grave expression on his face. He sensed that the square, bone-white seal contained the power at the peak of the Nine-star Martial Venerable Realm!

"Shake!" At that moment, Shi Feng gave a low shout, and then, the Nine Nether Four Extremes Seal in the void abruptly shook towards the ground below!

"Kill!" Zi Xiao let out a loud cry, wielding his Green-purple Long Spear and hurled himself forward, charging up towards the descending mighty seal.

"Dragon Elephant Power!" Shi Feng bellowed as a huge dragon elephant phantom surfaced on his body. While Shi Feng stood in the center of the dragon elephant phantom, the figure rushed forth, colliding fiercely with the bone-white seal.

"Boom!" A violent roaring sound resonated throughout heaven and earth as the powerful energy exploded in an instant.

In the void, a brilliant bone-white light flickered abruptly, clashing with the purple-green radiance, throwing everything into utter chaos. The savage and intense energy ravaged all directions, obscuring everything in the void, including Shi Feng’s figure.

"Could the Marquis be alright amid such a violent and chaotic surge of energy?" A dragon elephant cavalryman came beside his comrade, looking up with a worried expression, asking his companion.

"Don’t worry. We’ve followed the Marquis for so long, when have you ever seen him defeated?" Another dragon elephant cavalryman replied.

"That’s true. The Marquis is invincible in battle, undefeated in assault. He will certainly not be defeated this time!" Reassured by his companion’s words, the dragon elephant cavalryman spoke with conviction.

"A Nine-star Martial Venerable! Still no match, huh?" Zi Xiao also gazed at the void, where the violent energy raged, his face showing a tint of disappointment. He muttered softly before shaking his head.

As the radiant light and frenzied energy in the void began to dissipate rapidly, a proud green-purple figure stood in the midst of the void, somewhat indistinct.

Upon seeing this figure, the dragon elephant cavalrymen shouted, "Look, it’s the Marquis!"

"Indeed, it’s our Marquis. Of course, he wouldn’t be harmed! Even against the Emperor Nine Nether’s ultimate skill, so what? The saying ’raw power can suppress myriad techniques’ holds true — in the face of absolute strength, everything else is futile."

"The Marquis is mighty!"

"The Marquis is mighty!"

"The Marquis is mighty!"

The dragon elephant cavalry below continually called out towards the void.

Finally, as the light and power completely vanished, Marquis Zi Qing, Shi Feng’s figure grew clearer within the void. With a single motion, Shi Feng descended back to the ground, his icy visage staring intently at Shi Feng.

However, Shi Feng’s icy demeanor suddenly changed, his brows furrowed and a sweet taste filled his throat. "Ugh!" A stream of bright red blood spurted from his mouth.

"Marquis! The Marquis!"

"The Marquis is injured?"

"How can it be, how could the Marquis be injured!"

The sudden turn of events caused the dragon elephant cavalrymen behind him to cry out in shock, each one springing into action and soaring toward Marquis Zi Qing.

"No need! I am fine!" Sensing his subordinates approaching from behind, Zi Xiao hastily raised his hand to stop them. Thirteen figures obediently halted mid-air, not daring to advance any closer.

Right after lowering his head to spit blood, Zi Xiao slowly raised his face again, fixing his gaze on Shi Feng once more, "Heh... Heh heh..." Just then, Marquis Zi Qing’s face, directed at Shi Feng, suddenly broke into a grin.
