Chapter 1236: Encircling Xiang Shaoyun
About five people from the fan club were in the Soul Foundation Realm. All five of them tried to seal Xiang Shaoyun's movement, preventing him from defeating the other fan club members one after another.
"Xiang Shaoyun, we'll let this slide if you can defeat us. Don't lay your hands on the others," Zhou Haoyu shouted.
"Get lost, all of you!" said Gongsun Tiehu because the fan club members fleeing everywhere were getting in his way of dealing with Xiang Shaoyun.
The members failed to escape in time and started wailing miserably as Xiang Shaoyun delivered them a beating.
"I'm going to trample over every single one of you," said Xiang Shaoyun with a sneer.
He increased his speed, leaving a series of afterimages as he moved about. Wherever he went, someone would wail miserably and be sent flying. The fan club members were unable to escape. Only a short while had passed, yet the only ones left standing were the five Sovereigns.
The five Sovereigns were infuriated. They had not imagined that Xiang Shaoyun would show them so much disrespect. He had really trampled over their people. Further annoying them was the fact that they couldn't keep up with his speed or pose him any threat.
Xiang Shaoyun finally stopped moving. He beckoned at the five and said, "It's your turn."
"You're getting too cocky. I'll eliminate you," said a second-stage Soul Foundation Realm cultivator. With a roar, he charged Xiang Shaoyun atop a two-headed lion.
The two-headed lion was a Demon Sovereign. The lion roared, sending a terrifying shockwave toward Xiang Shaoyun while the attacker swung his halberd at Xiang Shaoyun's chest. The attacker had a combat strength comparable to a fifth-stage Soul Foundation Realm cultivator, possessing the might worthy of being a prodigy from the True Martial Academy. As he attacked, a first-stage Soul Foundation Realm cultivator attacked as well.
Gravity field!
The second attacker was an earth cultivator. Utilizing the profundity of earth, he formed a powerful gravity field to restrict Xiang Shaoyun's movements, forcing him to slow down. At the same time, the second attacker charged forward with his silver axe, sending a boundlessly powerful attack toward Xiang Shaoyun. The two geniuses worked together, resulting in a terrifying combination.
With Xiang Shaoyun's strength, he remained calm in the face of their attacks. He said, "Only the two of you? This is pointless."
Right after saying that, he threw a punch out before sending a spinning kick to the second attacker. Xiang Shaoyun was completely unaffected by the gravity field. His opponent might know the profundity of earth, but he had a higher proficiency over the profundity of earth. He was almost immune to the gravity field's effects.
Xiang Shaoyun's punch blasted through the lion's roar, continued on, and blasted the halberd away before sending both the attacker and his lion flying. As for the spinning kick, it unleashed a sharp blade of wind that wreaked destruction on the axe wielder. The wind blade ripped his clothes away to reveal a shiny inner armor before sending the axe wielder flying away as well.
Their combat strength was far weaker than Xiang Shaoyun's. No matter how hard they tried, they wouldn't be able to close this gap. Even so, they had still been able to create a perfect opportunity for Zhou Haoyu and Su Youzi to make their move. The two rushed Xiang Shaoyun with their saint weapons.
These were all prodigy cultivators that had grown rapidly. Naturally, they had each encountered some fortuitous encounters and had obtained the True Martial Academy's support. It wasn't surprising that they would have some saint weapons on them when heading to a place as dangerous as the Devil Domain.
Xiang Shaoyun was too strong. Their only option was to use their saint weapons against him. Even Devil Concubine considered interfering in the fight when she saw their saint weapons. However, she decided against it after some hesitation.
A man as domineering as Xiang Shaoyun placed great importance on his dignity. He would not allow his woman to get involved in his fights. In any case, she didn't believe that Xiang Shaoyun would be defeated so easily. When two saint weapons were taken out, even the weather changed.
"Xiang Shaoyun, take this!" Zhou Haoyu roared as he attacked with all his strength.
Nine Revolution Star Explosion!
This was a battle technique Zhou Haoyu was famed for, and it was also the most remarkable technique he knew. It was incredibly powerful, and when it was activated, it was as though several stars were exploding at the same time.
Su Youzi's saint weapon was a long whip. He brandished the whip, turning it into a massive python that coiled around Xiang Shaoyun in its attempt to squeeze him to death.
Skyfetter Python!
Two top geniuses from the True Martial Academy attacked together with two saint weapons and unleashed a might so powerful that the sky and earth seemed to overturn. The people nearby fled far away in panic, afraid that the shockwaves would hit them.
Zhou Haoyu was a third-stage Soul Foundation Realm cultivator, and Su Youzi was a fourth-stage Soul Foundation Realm cultivator. Both their soul foundations unleashed a boundless pressure as their soul marks and battle techniques worked together to completely seal the battlefield.
Not even a peak Sovereign would be able to easily survive a joint attack like theirs. Being the target of their attacks, Xiang Shaoyun could naturally feel how powerful the attacks were. He might have a powerful physical body, but he still couldn't withstand the might of saint weapons.
Thus, he had to first break their techniques before moving out of the saint weapons' way. As he had been focused on dealing with his first two opponents, he hadn't been able to escape in time. Against them, his only option was to face their attacks upfront.
He wanted to take the Radiant Saint Sword out, but he decided to use the Overlord Skyslaying Saber instead after some hesitation. This was the weapon he was the most comfortable with. Although the Overlord Skyslaying Saber had yet to recover to the saint-grade, Xiang Shaoyun still wanted to use the saber to see his current limits.
Overlord Skyslaying Saber, sixth stance, One Slash to Destroy the Heavens and Earth!
Instantly, his lightning bone shone brightly, and his lightning energy burst out of his body. His entire person seemed to have transformed into a clump of lightning. The terrifying lightning energy resonated with the world around him, creating a storm of lightning in the Devil Domain. The storm joined with his thick saber intent and shot toward his two opponents. Countless lightning sabers flew forward with a dreadful might that seemed capable of annihilating the entire world.
