A light fell and the ck night was ripped apart.
This scene naturally made Tian Xing look subconsciously at Chi Guyan.
Her long pink dress was extremely bright and eye-catching under the light. Her beauty came from within, alone and solitary.
However, from her expression, Tian Xing could see that she was not joyous. In fact, she was very calm. There seemed to be no happiness at all.
Most importantly...
Chi Guyan did not look at the sky. Instead, she looked at herself. To be precise, she looked at Fang Zhengzhi, who was in front of her.
"Could it be that she hasn’t given up yet?" Tian Xing was slightly shocked. He did not know what was the rtionship between Fang Zhengzhi and Chi Guyan.
However, he knew that if she was able to stuff the Thousand Years Fire Herb into his chest, their rtionship must be special.
Right now...
The Heavenly Prophecy was about to descend.
It was about tond on the Heaven Dao Pavilion’s Heaven Academic Altar. From a certain perspective, it confirmed Chi Guyan as the Chosen One.
No!
"I can’t waste any more time!"
Tian Xing made up his mind. He did not know what would happen after the Heavenly Prophecynded. However, he had to make his preparations to guard against the massive increase in strength Chi Guyan would experience after the Baptism by the Holy Words.
Right now, much of his energy had been drained.
At this moment...
It was not a smart decision to be in the Heaven Dao Pavilion. After all, no one knew if Chi Guyan would seek revenge for Fang Zhengzhi.
Take the pill!
Take the pill instantly!
When he thought about this, Tian Xing stopped hesitating. He turned around and looked at Fang Zhengzhi once again. At the same time, his other hand formed a w as he prepared to reach into his chest to grab the pill.
However...
The moment he turned his head.
His bulged and turned as round as a circle.
As the Leader of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain, Tian Xing was usually extremely calm and stable. His calm was superhuman. However, at this moment, he could not stay calm anymore.
"Mmm!" A powerful energy, as vast as the ocean, sounded. It was very close to Tian Xing and seemed to take ce right in front of him.
This was something he could not have expected.
"How can this be possible?" Tian Xing could not believe it. He dared not believe it. He no longer thought that Fang Zhengzhi was capable of ambushing him.
With a hole in his right heart, how could he control the aura of heaven and earth?
Was he a demon?
Even if he was a demon, he should follow the natural order. Tian Xing was dumbstruck, but this was not the reason why.
In fact, the scene in front of him shocked him more.
A wheel of light spun non-stop and was split into six parts. Every single part was round and there were six round shapes. They were centered around Fang Zhengzhi’s right hand and they spun non-stop, forming a huge wheel of light.
Most importantly...
On top of the wheel of light, there were two balls of light which were illuminated.
One was blue and the other one was green. The blue one was as blue as the sky. It was almost cerulean in color. The green one was emerald-green and crystal-clear.
At this moment, Tian Xing felt disorientated. He felt as if the wheel of light in Fang Zhengzhi’s hand was not ordinary. It was a world, a world which contained millions of beings.
"I have been putting up with you for way too f*cking long!" Fang Zhengzhi’s voice rang out next to Tian Xing’s ears. He sounded infuriated and determined.
In fact, Fang Zhengzhi was enraged.
Was it not just one stalk of the Thousand Years Fire Herb?
Motherf*cker! He did not want to eat it. Instead, Chi Guyan forcibly stuffed it into his mouth. He almost choked to death on it.
Treasure?
Fang Zhengzhi did not care if it was a treasure or not. He suffered so much and endured so much pain. He already ate it. If he wanted him to spit it out, he would.
Leader of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain?
I want to hit the Leader of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain!
"Boom!" A deafening explosion rang out in the Heaven Dao Pavilion, which shook the entire heaven. An enraged fist struck out with it.
Fang Zhengzhi attacked.
Tian Xing opened his eyes wide in shock. He stood dazedly where he was. Just as he stood there in disbelief, a fist, wrapped by the Rebirth te,nded on his face.
At that moment, Fang Zhengzhi felt an immense sense of satisfaction. He did not care if he was the Leader of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain or whether he was one of the most powerful beings in the Holy Region.
One punch. One rage-filled punch where he used all his strength.
Fang Zhengzhi naturally did not believe that this one punch could knock Tian Xing down. However, even if he lived, it would surely make him bleed.
"Slick!" This was the sound of a fist exiting a body. It sounded exactly the same as when a fist entered it.
At that moment, Fang Zhengzhi felt an intense pain. While Tian Xing’s punch, which pierced through his body, was not enough to kill him, the agony was real.
Blood flew everywhere.
However, Fang Zhengzhi smiled gleefully. This was because the blood did not just belong to him. It was mixed with Tian Xing’s blood, which he spat out from his mouth.
"Kaboom!"
Tian Xing’s bodynded heavily on the ground. His huge ck robes were ripped apart and his nine little crucible-shaped hairpins fell all over the ground.
This scene took ce very quickly.
From the moment the bolt of lightning cut across the sky to the moment when Fang Zhengzhi knocked Tian Xing back with his punch, it took only two breaths.
Silence. A deathly silence.
No one knew what had happened. However, they could all see the huge hole in the ground made from Tian Xing’s falling figure.
This was the Leader of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain...
Hey in the middle of the hole. The corners of his mouth were blood-streaked and his eyes bulged. He wore a look of shock and disbelief on his face.
"Master!"
"What happened?!"
"How can this be possible?!"
The disciples of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain were all shocked by this scene. After all, the person whoy in the hole was Tian Xing, their leader and one of the most powerful beings in the Holy Region.
Who could hurt Tian Xing?
The Nine Pinnacles Mountain disciples could not believe it.
They were not alone. Even the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples, and Emperor Lin Mubai, the Xian King Lin Yun, and the two other emperors and their sons could not believe it.
"Tian Xing was knocked down!?"
The moment the golden bolt of lightning appeared, their hearts brimmed with anticipation and respect. When Tian Xing was struck down, all they felt was disbelief.
When they looked at the sky once more, they saw a figure whose mouth was stained with blood and whose right chest was bloody. This shock turned into horror.
"What is that?"
"Six circles formed a wheel of light?! Pure cerulean and emerald-green..."
"What Dao is this?"
Many eyes bulged and many mouths were wide open. Everyone gazed at the spinning wheel of light.
Horror, suspicion, shock...
"What is that item? It knocked master down?!"
"How can this be possible?!"
"Isn’t that guy dead? How can he be so powerful?!"
The disciples of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain could not believe it. However, this was the truth. Tian Xingy in the hole in the ground. Fang Zhengzhi floated in mid-air.
"Re...Rebirth te, this is the Rebirth te!" Tian Xing’s mouth continued to bleed but he ignored it.
This was because Fang Zhengzhi’s round te of light shocked him utterly. His heart turned cold and his back was drenched with sweat.
"What’s a Rebirth te?!"
"What... is it?!"
"I’ve never heard of it!"
"I... I think I saw records of it. It says that the Rebirth te is an assumption or a hypothesis. It can’t be something real?"
"Assumption?! Assumption! It..."
When the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples and the Nine Pinnacles Mountain disciples heard Tian Xing’s words, their shock was indescribable with mere words.
"Rebirth te! This b*stard... I should have guessed it. He has mastered the Heaven Dao and the Near-Life Dao. I should have guessed it long ago..." Mu Qingfeng mumbled to himself in shock.
He was extremely worked-up. As the Pavilion Leader of the Heaven Dao Pavilion, he could not help but feel his body trembling.
"Shameless thief..." Chi Guyan’s eyes shone colorfully. Dots of starlight congregated together. Her voice was not loud, but one could see that her face was redder than usual and her chest heaved up and down.
...
Fang Zhengzhi looked at the many shocked expressions blow him.
While he heard the disciples from the two sects, as well as what Tian Xing had said, he felt that their focus...
Their focus was wrong.
"Don’t they care about me defeating Tian Xing at all? Or, in other words, I managed to survive three blows from him."
Of course, luck yed a part.
However, from a certain perspective, luck was tantamount to strength.
Why did all these people care only about his Rebirth te? Was this item so shocking? In fact, it had no use whatsoever.
Fang Zhengzhi was not trying to be modest.
He personally tried it before. He tried to assess the difference between one hand with the Rebirth te and one hand without it by shattering rocks.
His result was...
Of course, it made him more powerful, but not significantly so.
This was why he never used his Rebirth te before. After all, it took up a lot of energy and it did not increase his strength by that much. It was rather pointless.
Of course, the situation just now was different.
Fang Zhengzhi had one chance.
Furthermore, it was his only chance.
At that moment, even if he used his Heaven Dao or Near-Life Dao, they did not give him the satisfaction of punching Tian Xing in the face.
It was effective.
Hence, even though the Rebirth te did not make him significantly more powerful, Fang Zhengzhi did not hesitate to use it. After all, after he punched Tian Xing, he could not strike back, right?
He used up all three moves.
This was what Fang Zhengzhi thought.
However, there was a small ’problem’.
"Kaboom!" The sound of the ground shattering could be heard. Then, a ck figure rose from the ground and charged toward Fang Zhengzhi rapidly.
Tian Xing.
No one expected Tian Xing to strike once more. After all, he made a promise to attack only thrice.
However, he did charge toward Fang Zhengzhi. Furthermore, his body brimmed with a powerful killing intent. His eyes, which were normally calm, turned dark and murderous.
A change.
An instantaneous change.
"Die!" Tian Xing roared coldly. His messy hair danced in the wind and his torn robes started to shine with light once more.
He did not know if Fang Zhengzhi could use his Origin Energy. He also did not know how did Fang Zhengzhi end up with the Rebirth te.
He had doubts over many things.
However, these were no longer important.
This was because he knew the significance of the Rebirth te, as well as what it meant for Fang Zhengzhi to live past today.
Fang Zhengzhi was shameless, but his body brimmed with a powerful aura. These all told him that if he lived, he would be a huge threat which must be eliminated right away.
"Tian Xing, stop! Fang Zhengzhi only had four months left to live!" Mu Qingfeng’s voice rang out the moment Tian Xing dashed into the air.
He wanted to stop him but it was way toote. He was too far away from Fang Zhengzhipared to Tian Xing.
Hence, he could only reveal the ’truth’, hoping that it would stop Tian Xing.
In fact, he never expected that the Leader of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain, one of the five sects of the Holy Region, Tian Xing, would break his promise in front of more than 1000 disciples from the Heaven Dao Pavilion and the Nine Pinnacles Mountain.
However, he knew what he was thinking.
This was because, if the roles swapped and he did not know that Fang Zhengzhi only had four months to live, he may make the same decision.
After all, someone who controlled the Rebirth te had immense potential. When this person matured, how terrifying would he be?
No one knew.
Tian Xing and Fang Zhengzhi were now nemeses. Hence, he could not expect Tian Xing to cast this hatred away so easily. He knew that Tian Xing would rather have his name besmirched than to let Fang Zhengzhi live.
"Zap!" Another bolt of lightning dashed across the sky. The dark sky was now splitpletely open. A golden light shone down.
