Chapter 1878 - Chapter 1878 Chapter 1874 The End of the Battle _1

Chapter 1878: Chapter 1874: The End of the Battle _1 Chapter 1878: Chapter 1874: The End of the Battle _1 He never thought that he would be pushed to such an extent by Yang Chen.

“If Flame God Star is not enough, I’ll have to resort to Desolate Star,” Zuo Xiao was wavering in his heart.

Desolate Star was his biggest trump card at the moment, one that he rarely used. In the past, Flame God Star and Ming Shen Star were enough to deal with all of his opponents.

He hadn’t even used Desolate Star when he became one of the Four Heavenly Kings.

Although he was considered the weakest among the Four Heavenly Kings, Zuo Xiao didn’t see it that way. In his eyes, Desolate Star was his biggest trump card, and with it, he could easily deal with the other Heavenly Kings.

One day, he would use this technique to prove his position among the Four Heavenly Kings.

But now, Yang Chen was forcing him to use it.

“What a fierce kid!” Zuo Xiao growled and stomped his foot.

“Desolate Star, attachment!”

As he spoke, a massive demon god emerged from his back, with two horns on its head and an enormous body. The manifestation appeared as a momentary illusion before dissipating like smoke.

However, Yang Chen knew that the Starry Power had already been infused into Zuo Xiao’s body.

Zuo Xiao immediately struck out with another palm, but this time, the power coming towards him was completely different.

This wave of power was accompanied by black smoke, within which was a layer of rotting energy. Wherever it passed, the scent of the air turned foul.

“Rot? Death? Destruction?” Yang Chen felt an overwhelming amount of power from this strike.

This power was intriguing.

However, he didn’t back down. He had no room for retreat at this point.

The ultimate power of Innate Oneness Qi collided directly with the Desolate Star’s palm attack.

Boom!

A tremendous force emanated from them, causing the surrounding space to oscillate and even tear apart.

“Run!”

“Get out of here, the space is tearing apart. This is bad!” The onlookers witnessing the pinnacle of power from their clash were horrified and began to flee.

Cheng Lin was also startled by Yang Chen’s surprising strength and immediately said, “Sisters-in-law, let’s go!”

Zhang Min and Silver Jade blushed upon hearing the term “sisters-in-law,” but now was not the time to dwell on it. Cheng Lin led them as they quickly fled.

Soon, the front half of the Xuan Tao Palace shattered, and the surrounding decorations vanished in a flash.

Yang Chen and Zuo Xiao were at the center of the tremors, unable to determine the victor.

At this moment, Yang Chen unleashed the full might of his Innate Oneness Qi, only to realize a terrible truth.

His True Qi was gradually rotting upon contact with that palm strike…

That’s right, it was like a corrosive force. Ultimately, his True Qi had vanished entirely.

“How is this possible? There was so much True Qi!” Yang Chen’s pupils contracted.

“Hahaha, Yang Chen, I admit that you’re powerful, but your strength is useless before the Starry Power of Desolate Star,” Zuo Xiao laughed hysterically.

At this moment, Yang Chen felt anxious: “This is bad!”

And so, the astonishing battle gradually drew to a close.

The surrounding spatial fluctuations persisted for about the time it took to brew a pot of tea before slowly dissipating.

Many dark, gaping fissures in space marked the achievements of Yang Chen and Zuo Xiao’s fight.

It was precisely because of these spatial cracks that people dared not approach. Even those at the Demi-God Phase wouldn’t dare guarantee that they could escape unscathed if they got too close.

Fortunately, the vast and abundant Twelve States had a favorable geographical environment, allowing the space cracks to slowly heal and recover over time.

Only when the spatial fissures were mostly mended did people dare to approach again.

“What’s the result of the battle?”

“Who won?” Various people discussed the matter, most of them being Zuo Xiao’s subordinates.

“Isn’t it obvious? Hehe, you guys don’t know how powerful Brother Zuo Xiao is. I’ve seen him use the power of Desolate Star once in Luo Star Island. The power of Desolate Star is extremely rare, with only a few in Luo Star Island being able to successfully communicate with it. Anyone who can do so is undoubtedly a top-tier genius.”

“With the power of Desolate Star, our boss is invincible. What is desolation? It can even rot Divine Power, turning it to nothingness. What can Yang Chen use to resist it?”

However, as they looked up, they were all suddenly struck speechless.

Standing before them was none other than Yang Chen.

And lying on the ground was their supposed unbeatable leader, Zuo Xiao.

Not only Zuo Xiao’s subordinates, but even the people of Xuan Tao Palace, like Cheng Lin, were also dumbfounded. Zuo Xiao had actually lost, and the victor was Yang Chen.

At this moment, Zuo Xiao was lying on the ground, unable to believe what was happening. He spat out a mouthful of blood and roared, “How is this possible? How?!”

“Brother Zuo Xiao, nothing is impossible,” Yang Chen replied weakly.

It should be noted that this battle had also drained him considerably. It was not easy for him to achieve victory.

He even almost lost, as his Innate Oneness Qi gradually rotted, leaving his chances of victory slim to none.

However, in the end, he calmed down to discover that the rotting effect of Desolate Star’s power had a speed limit; it couldn’t instantly corrode all of his True Qi like a gaping mouth.

Before it had rotted completely, his Innate Oneness Qi could still harm Desolate Star.

Next came their final showdown.

He poured Divine Power into his One Breath of Chaotic Origin and combined it with his Innate Oneness Qi to unleash his most formidable power.

Despite the immense power of Desolate Star’s strike, the rotting speed ultimately couldn’t keep up with Yang Chen’s destruction. After their fierce battle, Yang Chen narrowly prevailed, defeating Zuo Xiao.

Now, he truly understood the prowess of Four Heavenly Kings-level experts. Zuo Xiao was indeed no ordinary person, possibly equaling–or even surpassing–He Yiming.

If it weren’t for his master’s Magnetic Divine Mountain, defeating He Yiming wouldn’t be difficult. But dealing with Zuo Xiao was a completely different story.

“So, Brother Zuo Xiao, how do you choose?” Yang Chen asked with a smile.

Zuo Xiao stared at Yang Chen, lost in thought.

He had lost.

Completely.

Battles lost in front of so many people could never be covered up. It was precisely because of this that the stakes of his bet with Yang Chen became unequivocal.

As one of the Four Heavenly Kings, losing meant that he had to be taken under Yang Chen’s command and become his subordinate.
