Battle Among the Stars

“You all right?” Chu Buqu checked out Chu Xiachi’s arms for injuries.

“Hehe, alive and kicking and in time,” responded Chu Xiachi.

“When did you ascend?” Nameless asked, sensing the Apotheosis Realm presence.

Gu Yitian glanced Mu Yu’s way. “Five days ago.”

Mu Yu provided the opportunity that Gu Yitian needed to ascend during the visit back to Mount Dustfallen and demonstrated his system for developing a simple rule into something more complex. Thanks to Mu Yu’s Universe Ruler, Gu Yitian figured out a rule for himself.

“You ought to return my sword, then.”

Gu Yitian unfastened the sword he was loaned and passed it back to Nameless, triggering a spurt of energy from Nameless – not that it fazed Bai Jie.

“Like it or not, here I come!” declared Bai Jie.

Fifty Apotheosis Realm foreign races came up behind Bai Jie. Of course, this was not his full force as a number of them were still stationed at Sword Shadow City. Nonetheless, bringing fifty Apotheosis Realm helpers was a testament to his evaluation of his competition’s abilities.

“Mu Yu, you should’ve raided Sword Shadow City while we kept them busy here,” Ku Mu said.

“I already went,” Mu Yu replied.

“Couldn’t get in?”

Mu Yu trained his eyes on Bai Jie. “This is Sword Shadow City.”

“Explain.”

“Hahaha, Eternally Youthful Ku Mu, Sumeru Switch Scroll. Get it?” Bai Jie mocked.

“Sumeru Switch Scroll brought you here?”

“Precisely,” Mu Yu replied. “Sumeru Switch’s ‘switch’ comes from the quote, ‘To resort to all sorts of schemes to usurp power.’ Our only option is to butcher Bai Jie.”

“Simple instructions.” Archfiend Qinglong deployed “I Reign Supreme” right off the bat as he appeared, standing above the foreign races to look down on them, literally. Arriving with him was Archfiends Baiyuan, Luanfeng, Yujiang and Hai Dongqing.

“Kahahaha, I thought you fiends were busy.”

“Don’t test this old one, you wet-behind-the-ears bug,” roared Archfiend Qinglong.

“So what? Defying Divine Executioner incurs the death penalty, expired fiend.”

Archfiend Qinglong and Mu Yu regarded each other with a nod.

“Xiang Nan, it’s about time you returned my heart to me,” aggressed Archfiend Hai Dongqing.

“Third Brother, we need his help to stomp these nuisances out,” Mu Yu urged.

Xiang Nan flicked the archfiend’s heart back into its owner’s hand. “I don’t need it anymore.”

“It’s going to be one on two for us. Stay alert at all times,” Mu Yu cautioned.

“I’ll take seven.” Archfiend Baiyuan cracked his knuckles as loud as he could. “I’m a professional soul race vanquisher.”

“Charge!”

The wind howled along with humanity’s howls. All Apotheosis Realm pugilists deployed their formations right out of the gate, Bai Jie catching everyone inside Sumeru Switch Scroll to force them into fighting among the stars.

Boom! Boom! Boom! The stars trembled as domains collided.

“Advance!” Below the battle among the stars, Zhuge Xiaosheng led Sword Shadow Alliance against the remaining foes.

The five equipped with Celestial Swords frightened off the stars as they summoned energy down. Cheng Yan deployed Cosmic Genesis, catching three from the lunar race. When they commenced their charge, Cheng Yan redirected them, forcing them to attack each other. Cheng Yan cleaved a horn growing out of a crimson monster and then deleted it from Third Heaven.

Xiang Nan dropped Earth Propagation Sand Scatter, burying his yellow qi in the sand screen as he swung horizontally. The two ghost race members stretched out their wings to accelerate their advance. Xiang Nan promptly splashed sand onto their wings, turning the iron wings into stone that exploded into loose grains of sand.

Lie Shang unleashed his domain – Seething Sky Scorcher. He melted his zombie opponent in one slash and combusted the corpse qi left behind, burning what remained of the zombie as well as spreading the inferno. One slash was all it took for him to dispatch a zombie and two bone race members.

Mu Yu doused his three soul race enemies in soul energy, draining them of their power, whilst casting black and white qis onto his sword prior to slashing them. As soon as he caught them on the wrist, it was game over. Boom! And there went one.

Mu Yu, his brothers and the archfiends took on three each as it was a tall order for new Apotheosis Realm cultivators to handle two Apotheosis Realm veterans at once. As veterans, Ku Mu, Tan Qingquan, Chi Buqu and Nameless stalled Bai Jie so that the others could finish their opponents without interruptions.

“I Reign Supreme!” Having shut down his three opponent’s desire to fight confidence, Archfiend Qinglong annihilated his scampering targets in one fell swoop. “Know who you are in the presence of!”

Not even challenged, Bai Jie took his time evading them and transferring soul energy to his allies to counter Archfiend Qinglong’s domain. A silver streak linked up the foreign races, removing the fear that “I Reign Supreme” induced.
