Chapter 1779
"Oh?" Chen Xuan raised an eyebrow, looked at the young man with divine feathers, and sneered: "You're so fearless because you're relying on the Feathered Divine Dynasty behind you, aren't you?"
His gaze swept over the purple-clad youth and Qiu Zixian, his disdain growing even stronger:
"As for the two of you, although I can't deduce your specific forces, I imagine you're either behemoths at the level of a divine dynasty, or... disciples of a holy land above a divine dynasty, right?"
When it comes to the ability to roast people, Chen Xuan is no less capable than Yu'er and the others, and may even be better—after all, he rose through the ranks from the bottom of Longxia and knows best how to hit people where it hurts.
At most, Yu'er and the others' words stirred up the other party's emotions and made them lose some of their rationality.
But Chen Xuan's words struck at the opponent's weak points, and their destructive power was on a completely different level.
Aren't you afraid of revealing your identities and power? Well then, I'm going to tear off that fig leaf and expose it to everyone.
Sure enough, Shen Yu's face darkened instantly upon hearing the words "Feathered Divine Dynasty".
When Chen Xuan mentioned the word "deduction," the pupils of Shen Yu, the purple-clad youth, and Qiu Zixian all contracted simultaneously—
They never expected that this unknown early-stage Void Realm cultivator would be able to glimpse the Great Dao and touch the edge of the Heavenly Secrets.
The young man with divine feathers turned completely cold. His golden wings suddenly unfurled, radiating dazzling divine light. He leaped into the air with a light touch of his toes, and with a raised right hand, a massive golden longbow slowly materialized in the void—
The bow appears to be crafted from the branches of a sacred Fusang tree, gleaming with ancient patterns. Faint, ancient runes swirl around the purple bowstring, clearly indicating that it is no ordinary object.
"You know far too much!"
Shen Yu's fingers touched the purple bowstring, and with a sudden pull, a crimson-gold arrow materialized out of thin air—as soon as the arrow took shape, the space around the void arena began to tremble violently, even the air was torn apart, emitting a mournful "buzzing" sound.
This shows just how terrifying the power contained in that arrow was.
He suddenly made a move! No one present could react in time. Even the onlookers who were still shocked by the "Feathered Divine Dynasty" only had time to open their eyes wide.
The crimson-gold arrow, like a shooting star, tore through the void with a sharp whistling sound, heading straight for Chen Xuan's head—it was clearly meant to kill!
Zi Mang and Qiu Zixian stood aside, watching calmly, as if this was just a trivial matter, and that it was not their place to deal with an "ant" like Chen Xuan.
"Insolence!" Yu'er shouted, and her divine sword was instantly drawn from its sheath. The spiritual light on the sword surged, and she was about to rush forward to block the arrows.
Piaoxue and Lin Yuyao also tensed up at the same time, their magical power surging, ready to fight at any moment.
Chen Xuan didn't move. He watched the crimson-gold light grow larger and larger in his pupils, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
He twitched his fingertips slightly, forming a sword-like finger, and gently pointed it at the void—
hum!
In an instant, the surrounding space seemed to be squeezed and compressed by an invisible hand; time seemed to stand still, and even the flow of air slowed down.
The arrow, which was originally as fast as a shooting star, suddenly slowed down when it was within inches of Chen Xuan, moving forward little by little like frozen water.
Faced with this "snail-slow" arrow, Chen Xuan simply extended his sword finger and gently pinched it—the crimson-gold arrow, which contained terrifying power of the Great Dao, shattered instantly between his fingers, turning into golden dust that dissipated in the wind.
"What!" Shen Yu was shocked at the sight. His golden wings froze in mid-air, and the playfulness on his face vanished, replaced by disbelief.
Even a cultivator at the late stage of the Void Reversal Realm might not be able to withstand his arrow, yet Chen Xuan neutralized it so easily.
"I see..." The purple-clad youth also put away the contempt in his eyes and looked at Chen Xuan properly for the first time, his hand gripping the sword hilt tightening slightly—this white-clad youth was much more troublesome than he had imagined.
Qiu Zixian's smile deepened, as if she had discovered an interesting toy. Her gaze swept halfway around Chen Xuan, her tone full of inquiry:
“You have some strength, but little brother, your ambition is quite large—to deduce the Great Dao, the Great Dao of Space, and the Great Dao of Time… Oh, your understanding of the Great Dao of Time is still very low, but you are quite good at using it.”
The three people's reactions were already shocking enough, but the cultivators watching from the outside world had long since fallen into a suffocating silence.
Especially the celestial beings and gods who came from the five holy cities, they knew best the identities of Shen Yu and the other two—they were the successors cultivated by the legendary top forces!
Yet, this very being's killing move was easily blocked by an unknown youth?
Compared to the boundless shock felt by Jiang Bieli, the Grand Elder, and others, the five people, including Wang Teng, who had previously taken to the stage to fight, felt their hearts sink even more.
They finally realized that Lin Yuyao, Yu'er, and the other three women were not at the peak of the Void Reversal Realm at all. The three on the arena, along with Chen Xuan who appeared last, were the true Void Reversal Realm experts.
"Are we... like frogs in a well, with a limited view of the sky?"
Wang Teng looked at Chen Xuan, who was calm and composed on the stage, his voice low as a murmur, his eyes full of frustration—he had previously thought he was exceptionally talented, but compared to Chen Xuan and the others, he was simply a joke.
"The core successor of the Feathered Divine Dynasty, if he were to unleash his full power, could kill even a celestial god or immortal with a single arrow... Yet he was able to block it so easily. What... what level of cultivation does he possess?"
Xuan Po's voice trembled, and his gaze toward Chen Xuan held a hint of fear.
"That's unfair! The Immortal Emperor set the rules long ago: the Divine Nest and the Holy Land are not allowed to interfere in the battles between Holy Cities!"
An old cultivator from Qilin City suddenly roared. He knew he could never leave Qilin City in his lifetime, and rather than wait to die in humiliation, he would rather fight.
"You've openly violated the rules of the Great Emperor, aren't you afraid of being held accountable by the Dao Alliance?!"
These words were like a pebble thrown into a calm lake.
More and more cultivators began to echo this sentiment, citing the rules of the Immortal Ancient Emperor as their argument—they might fear the power behind Shen Yu, but the Immortal Ancient Emperor's prestige was enough to make any power wary.
Shen Yu, the purple-clad youth, and Qiu Zixian indeed frowned slightly.
They could ignore these insignificant cultivators, but the rules of the Immortal Ancient Emperor were something that even the forces behind them dared not openly violate, let alone the cultivators themselves.
But all of this passivity was because of Chen Xuan! If it weren't for this white-robed youth interfering, they would have already obtained the Holy Qilin's essence and left quietly.
Shen Yu's face darkened completely. With a thought, the golden light on the Fusang Divine Bow intensified, and several new branches sprouted from the bow, radiating an even more terrifying pressure: "Boy, I was careless just now."
His fingers touched the bowstring again. This time, the crimson-gold light not only enveloped the arrow, but also caused golden flames to emanate from his body. The void trembled even more violently, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.
"This arrow will surely kill you!"
