155: The Five Elements Compass shattered, the Candle Dragon's divine power, and the Five Finger Mountain!
"A Disciple of the Jiesheng Sect?" Lord Zhu asked with some surprise.
However, the black palm showed no signs of dissipating, still crashing towards Shen Xuansheng.
"Since Lord Zhu is aware, why bother asking?"
Shen Xuansheng struck out with a palm: "Seven-Colored Heaven-Opening Art!"
The Seven-Colored Divine Light erupted once more, tearing towards the black palm.
This time, the black palm seemed to carry too much energy; before the Seven-Colored Heaven-Opening Art, it was actually torn into two, merging with the Seven-Colored Divine Light and dissipating between heaven and earth.
Lord Zhu moved his fingers; it seemed that the shattering of this palm was, to him, like a single drop of water in the ocean, completely unconcerned.
"Seven-Colored Dao Body."
"What a rare power; even I am seeing it for the first time. Little guy, it seems I really cannot kill you today!" Lord Zhu chuckled.
Hearing this.
Although Sima Wangquan and Xue Wujian were unclear about it, Shen Xuansheng understood.
The profound mystery of his Seven-Colored Dao Body lay in the seeds of the seven-colored divine lotus. As long as the seeds of the seven-colored divine lotus existed, even if he died and his Dao dissipated, he would be resurrected through the energy of the seeds.
Therefore, this was why Shen Xuansheng had always let the two women, Zhong Li and Zhong Yue, cultivate in the Jiesheng Sect, with a continuous supply of resources.
The twin lotus seeds of the seven-colored divine lotus were Zhong Li and Zhong Yue.
In other words, as long as the three of them did not die and have their Dao dissipate simultaneously, Shen Xuansheng could be resurrected infinitely!
"I can choose not to kill you!"
Lord Zhu said, "However, you must not take away this Dragon vein!"
As Lord Zhu spoke, he slapped down with one hand.
A terrifying energy fluctuation swept over like surging waves, causing one's heart to tremble uncontrollably.
Shen Xuansheng stared intently at that enormous palm, carrying the momentum to destroy heaven and earth, watching as it was about to strike heavily upon the five elements compass.
At this critical moment, Sima Wangquan roared hoarsely: "Old Shen! Once the compass shatters, we will have no chance to take the Dragon vein!"
His voice was filled with anxiety and despair, echoing in the air for a long time.
Hearing this, Shen Xuansheng's heart jolted, but he did not panic.
He took a deep breath, and without hesitation, mobilized all the Immortal Essence Magic Power within his body, gathering it in his palm.
Immediately after, he opened his mouth and squeezed out a low, powerful word from between his teeth.
"Freeze!"
In an instant, the entire world seemed to have solidified.
Whether it was the clouds in the sky, all living things on the earth, or the endlessly flowing river of time, everything ceased its movement.
However, only Lord Zhu's deep, distant eyes continued to flicker with light, like two dazzling stars, watching everything happening before him with great interest.
At this moment, Shen Xuansheng had turned as pale as paper from exerting his full strength to unleash the "Freeze" Divine Ability, and his body was swaying as if it had been drained.
He quickly took out a five-turn golden elixir and swallowed it in one gulp.
As the golden elixir melted down his throat, a continuous stream of medicinal power instantly flowed through his Meridians and acupoints throughout his body, and his previously exhausted Immortal Essence Magic Power began to gradually recover to a full state.
After his Immortal Essence Magic Power had recovered slightly, Shen Xuansheng gritted his teeth and used his last ounce of strength to strike out a palm.
This palm appeared plain and unremarkable, but in reality, it contained endless mystery and power, striking directly towards the giant palm suspended in mid-air...
"Break!"
Hearing a loud explosion, it felt as if the entire world trembled because of it!
The enormous handprint instantly exploded, turning into countless fragments that flew in all directions.
The space and time that had been frozen finally began to flow again, and everything returned to a normal state.
At this time, Lord Zhu stared intently at Shen Xuansheng before him.
His eyes revealed an unprecedented, intense interest, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly as he said softly: "Little guy, not bad!"
His tone actually contained a hint of undisguised admiration.
However, immediately after, Lord Zhu changed the subject and continued: "It's just a pity, as I said before, with your current low level of Cultivation and Realm, wanting to contend with me is no different from a pipe dream!"
His words revealed an unshakable confidence.
"If you possessed the Cultivation of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, perhaps you might have had a sliver of a chance to successfully take this Dragon vein today. But unfortunately, you are not..."
Lord Zhu shook his head regretfully, then extended a finger and tapped lightly towards Shen Xuansheng.
As this finger descended, a terrifying, extreme pressure swept towards Shen Xuansheng like a mountain toppling and a sea overturning.
At the same time, Lord Zhu let out a long sigh, as if he had known the outcome of this battle all along, and helplessly said: "Today, let it end here!"
Black light condensed into a finger, with a coiling Dragon carved upon it.
When this finger appeared, the earth trembled and began to crack, endless flames and magma shot out from underground, and the air was filled with a scorching energy.
"This finger is something I realized during endless years."
"And it is with this finger that I have cut off the life force of the strongest Experts in this world." Lord Zhu said softly.
"Kid, I know I cannot kill you, but I still have to kill you once."
"This finger."
"I call it, the Candle Dragon Life-Extinguishing Finger!"
Hearing this.
Shen Xuansheng gasped, recalling the appearance of Lord Zhu's true form, and a look of sudden realization appeared on his face: "So that's it!"
"Twin pupils as the sun and moon; I should have realized who you were, Senior!"
Hearing this, Lord Zhu's Divine Ability finger paused slightly, and he asked curiously: "Kid, what do you mean by that?"
A smile appeared on Shen Xuansheng's weak face.
"Twin pupils like the sun and moon; closing eyes brings night, opening eyes brings day."
"The legendary creature, the Candle Dragon!"
"Senior, is what this Junior says correct?"
Lord Zhu looked at Shen Xuansheng, and a genuine smile appeared on his wicked face: "Kid, I told you, you little guy are indeed different, to actually be able to recognize me."
"Not bad!"
"However, I said it, today, you must die!"
The finger descended, and wherever it passed, space was completely destroyed. Under the energy of this finger, in the desperate gaze of Sima Wangquan, the five elements compass instantly shattered!
"No!!"
Sima Wangquan spat out a mouthful of blood: "My Dragon vein!!"
Between heaven and earth, the Qi of the Dragon vein dispersed from the shattered five elements compass, turning into streaks of Dragon shadows, wanting to escape into the earth beneath.
"Old Shen, this is a Dragon vein!" Sima Wangquan shouted unwillingly.
Shen Xuansheng took a deep breath.
Looking at Lord Zhu's Divine Ability finger.
"Candle Dragon Divine Ability, Sun-Moon Reincarnation!"
Shen Xuansheng's eyes, at this moment, actually became the same as Lord Zhu's; his left eye was the sun, and his right eye was the moon.
"Five Finger Mountain!"
Behind Shen Xuansheng, a phantom image soared upwards, extending its hand towards Lord Zhu. In Lord Zhu's shocked gaze, Shen Xuansheng's palm was actually beneath Lord Zhu.
Watching himself inside a palm, Lord Zhu laughed: "A Great Divine Ability technique."
"Sun-Moon Reincarnation Art?"
"Haha!"
Lord Zhu laughed: "You even have my innate Divine Ability; kid, the surprise you've given me is not small at all!"
This Candle Dragon Divine Ability was exactly what the System had given him when he previously destroyed the island on the East Sea.
It was just that he hadn't used it before.
