"I don't believe a single word of what you're saying!"
Li Feiyu went off-script, directly cursing them out, leaving the Core Formation Cultivators, Tianwuzi, Star Palace Elders, and others dumbfounded.
Did he not care about the dignity of a Nascent Soul Cultivator at all?
Li Feiyu continued, "If you want to teach me a lesson, if you want to know the secret of my rapid advancement to Nascent Soul Stage, if you want to know news of my Junior Brother Han Li, just say so directly."
"As long as you can catch me… everything is negotiable!"
Heavenly Fate and Elder Fire Cloud exchanged glances. As long as they weren't meeting on a battlefield, encountering a Nascent Soul Cultivator by chance usually didn't lead to such a huge fuss.
"Fellow Daoist Heavenly Fate, what do you say?" Fire Cloud smiled lightly, looking at Heavenly Fate.
Heavenly Fate's eyes showed disdain, "As expected, a newborn calf fears no tiger. Since he's looking for death, then let's grant him his wish."
"Senior Brother, my Blood Curse!"
"We'll talk about it later!"
Tianwuzi was on the verge of tears. Didn't they agree to lift his curse first?
Li Feiyu shot into the sky, flying into the distance, with Heavenly Fate and Elder Fire Cloud following leisurely behind him.
Tianwuzi and Elder Liu also followed, but kept a considerable distance, observing from afar.
After Li Feiyu stopped, he faced the two Nascent Soul Middle Stage Cultivators directly, "I can clearly sense that you are very strong, but I am not weak either. Perhaps after this battle, no one in the entire Inner Star Sea will dare to underestimate me!"
Heavenly Fate snorted coldly, "Overestimating yourself!"
He performed a hand seal, and a purple True Lightning, as thick as an arm, descended abruptly towards Li Feiyu's head.
Li Feiyu's lips curled into a slight smile, and a dark green light emanated from his palm as he pushed upwards.
The Azure Wood True Lightning collided with the purple True Lightning, creating a shocking explosion. From within the explosion, a purple lightning arc, as thick as a finger, pierced through and landed on Li Feiyu's palm. Li Feiyu immediately felt a stinging pain, and his palm was somewhat charred.
His pupils contracted slightly, surprised by the power of this purple True Lightning.
Heavenly Fate said disdainfully, "Though both are True Lightning, the Purple Heavens Profound Skill I Cultivate, in terms of Dao methods and Divine Abilities, ranks among the top five in the entire Inner Star Sea."
"My Purple Heavens True Lightning has already reached its limit, on the verge of transforming into Purple Heavens Divine Lightning. How could it be comparable to the True Lightning you've just cultivated?"
After a pause, Heavenly Fate continued, "However, your Physical Body did surprise me. That trace of lightning arc couldn't even penetrate your palm."
Li Feiyu was slightly startled in his heart. Nascent Soul Middle Stage Cultivators truly could not be underestimated.
Then, he said to Elder Fire Cloud, "I wonder what Divine Abilities the Star Palace's Nascent Soul Middle Stage Elder possesses. Why don't you show them off!"
"The Star Palace has dominated the Inner Star Sea for thousands of years; they must have quite a few formidable Cultivation Techniques."
"Since you wish to witness it, then I shall grant your wish!"
Elder Fire Cloud suddenly shouted, "Blazing Extreme True Fire!"
Hearing this name, Heavenly Fate was slightly surprised, turning to look, then his lips curled into a slight, somewhat disdainful smile.
Elder Fire Cloud's hand produced a crimson-gold treasure bow, exuding an extremely powerful Aura. It was clearly his Lifebound Treasure, which he had nourished for a long time.
As he drew the bow, a dazzling white fiery spear formed, its aim fixed on Li Feiyu's head. He said, "If you have the ability, take this strike!"
Li Feiyu's expression was solemn. This strike was far more terrifying than Heavenly Fate's Purple Heavens True Lightning. The combination of activating his Lifebound Treasure and a fire Divine Ability was, without a doubt, his full-power attack.
Li Feiyu silently activated his perfected Blazing Sun Dharma Body, Profound Yellow Qi, and the Geomagnetic Pearl, which converted its gravitational force into repulsive force. Then, a mass of Taiyin True Water shot out, forming a thick ice wall midway.
"Go!"
Accompanying Elder Fire Cloud's voice, the white spear formed by the Blazing Extreme True Fire erupted with an incredibly terrifying Aura, crashing into the ice wall formed by the Taiyin True Water with a series of explosive roars.
Elder Liu still had lingering fears about the Taiyin True Water, but a Divine Ability of such power was instantly pierced through by the white spear with overwhelming force.
Passing through the ice wall, the white spear entered the geomagnetic repulsive force region. The powerful repulsive force field abruptly slowed its speed, and much of its Aura and power were eroded.
However, this repulsive force field also couldn't stop it. In the blink of an eye, the white sword had already collided with the three-foot-thick Profound Yellow Qi.
Li Feiyu's figure retreated rapidly, quickly landing on a medium-sized island not far behind him.
The Earth Emperor Skill's Profound Yellow Qi could only exert its maximum power when rooted in the earth, continuously drawing power from it.
Indeed, after landing on the island, a continuous stream of earth power replenished the Profound Yellow Qi, engaging in a fierce struggle with the white spear.
Heavenly Fate said, "They say that when those who Cultivate the Earth Emperor Skill reach the Nascent Soul Stage, their defensive power becomes even more terrifying. Rooted in the earth, they are invincible among their peers and can withstand attacks from Cultivators a stage higher."
"Seeing it today, it is indeed so."
He chuckled, "Fellow Daoist Fire Cloud, it seems your full-power strike won't be enough to take him down."
Elder Fire Cloud snorted coldly, his expression icy, and did not respond.
Li Feiyu fully drew upon the power of the earth to condense his Profound Yellow Qi. The power of the Blazing Extreme True Fire spear was continuously weakened. Not long after, Li Feiyu's palm, burning with golden flames, suddenly passed through the Profound Yellow Qi and grasped the white spear.
"Elder Fire Cloud, returning it to you!"
His Physical Body power erupted, a surge of Qi rippling outwards. Then, he suddenly threw it, and the white spear flew towards Elder Fire Cloud.
The spear's power was nearly depleted, but propelled by Li Feiyu's strength, it still possessed considerable might.
Elder Fire Cloud again drew his Magic Treasure longbow, casually conjuring an arrow to clash with the white spear, resulting in their mutual destruction.
Heavenly Fate laughed, "Fire Cloud, it seems you alone can't handle this young man. Fortunately, I'm here, hahahaha~"
"My Junior Brother said that your Divine Abilities are varied, and you Cultivate multiple Cultivation Techniques, with strength comparable to a Nascent Soul. It seems he was right."
"If it were just Fire Cloud alone today, you indeed wouldn't be taken down, but with me here, you won't escape our grasp."
"Is that so?" Li Feiyu's lips curled into a slight smile, "If I only had the strength I displayed last time, today might indeed be unavoidable. But didn't your Junior Brother tell you that during the entire battle, I didn't even use a single Magic Treasure?"
"Do you think that having cultivated a Nascent Soul Stage Divine Ability, I wouldn't have refined my own Lifebound Treasure?"
Heavenly Fate and Fire Cloud's expressions changed slightly.
Li Feiyu slowly ascended into the sky, and a formation diagram appeared above his head.
As soon as this formation diagram appeared, the surrounding Five Element spiritual Qi grew denser, continuously converging towards this spot.
"Grand Formation, rise!"
Heavenly Fate and Fire Cloud watched silently. They didn't believe that Li Feiyu could withstand their combined assault even after using his Magic Treasure.
The closing time of the grand formation was much faster than last time.
Fire Cloud sneered, "Just a grand formation? That's supposed to trap us? Are you sure you're not digging your own grave?"
Li Feiyu didn't answer. Streaks of light, which were long swords, shot out from his body. Some of these long swords began to divide, one splitting into nine.
In the blink of an eye, there were three hundred and sixty-five long swords within the grand formation, their tips all pointing at the two of them.
Each long sword had mysterious patterns on its blade, and with each breath, it subtly resonated and harmonized with the entire grand formation.
Tianwuzi and Elder Liu in the distance were dumbfounded. Never had anyone's Lifebound Treasure been on such a massive scale. A formation diagram plus three hundred and sixty-five long swords—could he really control all of them?
Moreover, their combined power was definitely at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage level, and the combined might was far more terrifying than the Magic Treasures nourished by other Nascent Soul Middle Stage Cultivators.
Tianwuzi silently thought, "Senior Brother, you're not going to fail too, are you?!"
If that were truly the case, then no one in the entire Inner Star Sea, except for a Great Cultivator of the Nascent Soul Late Stage, would be able to do anything to him.
Tianwuzi couldn't help but worry about his own fate.
Elder Liu felt the same way.
