Ascending to Godhood: I Can Foresee All Futures

Chapter 313: Chapter 177: Overwhelmingly Suppressing the Ten Heroes

Before the Palm Seal even arrived, its terrifying pressure caused the incredibly sturdy Bluestone Arena beneath Chen Sheng’s feet to groan, unable to bear the weight. A massive, golden palm-shaped indentation faintly appeared on its surface.

A cold glint flashed in Chen Sheng’s eyes. He neither dodged nor retreated, standing firm as if his feet were rooted to the spot.

His hands flew, forming a Sealing Technique. The Nine Nether Profound Gang within him surged forth, instantly condensing before him into a Treasure Seal. It was as crimson as blood, etched with profound patterns, and faintly echoed with the clear cry of a Divine Bird.

Six Extremes Golden Bell Technique—South Pole Vermilion Bird Seal!

”SCREEE!”

A sharp cry, like that of a Vermilion Bird, seemed to ring out from the void.

Trailing a long tail of flame, the blood-red Vermilion Bird Seal shot upward, colliding head-on with the descending, colossal golden palm in a brutal, straightforward clash!

”BOOM—!!!”

A deafening explosion, like rolling thunder, echoed across the skies of Wushan Mountain.

Golden Buddha Light and blood-red Gang Qi collided like two violent torrents, annihilating each other in a massive explosion.

A visible, ring-shaped shockwave spread out frantically, kicking up clouds of dust and debris.

An even match?

No!

Dharma Treasury’s pupils contracted sharply.

His Great Vajra Palm Seal, unleashed with his full power, had violently trembled upon impact with the blood-red Vermilion Bird Seal. Then, fine cracks had spiderwebbed across its surface before it shattered with a bang.

But the blood-red Vermilion Bird Seal, though its glow had dimmed considerably, had not completely dissipated. It continued to hurtle toward him, carrying the last of its fierce momentum.

’What?!’

Alarm bells screamed in Dharma Treasury’s mind. He hastily deployed another technique, launching several golden palm phantoms in quick succession to finally shatter the remnants of the Vermilion Bird Seal.

In a single exchange, the victor was already clear!

At that moment, the other enraged young geniuses seized the brief opening—the momentary shift in aura after Chen Sheng’s clash with Dharma Treasury—and launched their attacks.

”Chen Sheng! Die!”

Lu Maozhi’s eyes were bloodshot, old and new hatreds surging within him. With a furious roar, he unsheathed his Cyan Blade Sword.

The Sword Light split, instantly blossoming before him into a cyan Sword Lotus. It was ten feet in diameter, exquisite yet radiating a chilling killing intent.

It was none other than Luoyun Manor’s ultimate Secret Technique: Cyan Lotus Sword Technique - Ten Thousand Blades Lotus Flower.

Dozens, then hundreds, of incomparably sharp cyan Sword Qis shot out from the lotus petals. Like a violent squall, they enveloped Chen Sheng from his flank and rear, targeting his vitals.

Lu Maozhi knew the vast disparity in power between himself and Chen Sheng. Therefore, he opened with a desperate, all-or-nothing killing blow. He didn’t expect to land it, but hoped to distract Chen Sheng and create an opportunity for his brother and Li Xuance.

However, Chen Sheng didn’t even turn his head.

His left hand remained in its Sealing Technique posture, but his right hand shot up like lightning and pressed down on the air.

Six Extremes Golden Bell Technique—East Pole Cyan Dragon Seal!

”ROAR—!”

A desolate dragon’s roar echoed.

A heavy Treasure Seal materialized from thin air. It was a dark, burnished gold, with the phantom of a cyan dragon coiling around its surface. Carrying a tyrannical force that could tear the sky and suppress the world, it hurtled brazenly toward Lu Maozhi.

Wherever the Cyan Dragon Seal passed, the torrent of seemingly unstoppable cyan Sword Qis disintegrated like snow in boiling water, unable to impede it in the slightest.

’Not good!’

Lu Maozhi’s face paled in horror as the shadow of death instantly enveloped him.

He desperately circulated his body’s protective Evil Qi and shot backward, simultaneously bringing the Cyan Blade Sword horizontally across his chest in a desperate attempt to block.

”CLANG—CRACK!”

A crisp shattering sound rang out.

The instant the Cyan Blade Sword met the Cyan Dragon Seal, the blade groaned as if unable to bear the strain, then snapped in two.

Immediately after, the condensed, tyrannical Seal Power slammed into the protective barrier of Evil Qi he had hastily thrown up.

”PUH—!”

His protective Evil Qi shattered like paper.

As if struck by a sledgehammer, Lu Maozhi’s chest visibly caved in. He sprayed a mouthful of blood and was sent flying backward like a broken sack, slamming hard against the edge of the arena.

”Maozhi!”

Lu Xuanzhou’s eyes nearly split with rage. He flashed forward, managing to catch his brother in mid-air.

His brother felt limp in his arms. Lu Maozhi’s breathing was faint as a thread, his face ashen, and he had fallen completely unconscious.

If he hadn’t been wearing the Protective Treasure Armor gifted by his family, and if Lu Xuanzhou hadn’t absorbed some of the impact, that single seal would have been enough to kill him on the spot.

Cradling his brother whose life force was rapidly fading, Lu Xuanzhou shot a look at Chen Sheng. His eyes blazed with monstrous hatred, mixed with a sliver of terror he refused to acknowledge.

”Chen—Sheng—!”

A bestial growl rumbled in Lu Xuanzhou’s throat. He handed his brother to the approaching Villa Disciples, then spun around to lock eyes with Li Xuance, whose face was just as ashen and whose eyes were filled with undisguised killing intent.

No words were needed. They both moved at once.

”Vast Sea Return Flow, Profound Flood Dragon Transformation!”

Lu Xuanzhou roared, and his Cyan River Sword hummed as it left its sheath. The Profound Gang around him began to vibrate at an unprecedented, frantic frequency.

Over a hundred streams of fierce Sword Qi, instead of attacking his foe, reversed their course. Like a hundred rivers flowing back to the sea, they converged on the blade of the Cyan River Sword, compressing and condensing with furious energy.

”ROAR—!!!”

A sword-keen cry, like the roar of a heaven-shaking dragon, echoed to the clouds.

A cyan Flood Dragon, formed entirely from pure Sword Gang, roared forth from the Cyan River Sword!

The Flood Dragon was nearly two hundred feet long, its scales and claws made of Sword Qi, looking terrifyingly lifelike. It coiled above Lu Xuanzhou’s head, emanating a terrifying sharpness capable of rending mountains, its gaze locked firmly on Chen Sheng.

”Go!”

Lu Xuanzhou bit the tip of his tongue and spat a mouthful of life-essence blood onto his blade. The Cyan River Sword’s glow flared, transforming into a cyan streak of light that merged with the head of the Sword Qi Flood Dragon, increasing its power by another thirty percent.

Then, with a phantom grasp of his hands, he thrust them down toward Chen Sheng.

The Sword Qi Flood Dragon roared and swung its tail, lunging down from the right with devastating power.

Almost simultaneously, Li Xuance, on the left, unleashed the powerful attack he had been building.

”Red Water Prairie Fire!”

The red Gang Qi around Li Xuance burned like fire as the Red Water Sword in his hand transformed into a surging, crimson Sword River.
