Chapter 1893: Unstoppable Power in 1992

But there was no way around it, she didn’t want such a result either.

"Mu Hanyan, you’re at death’s door and still dare to toy with this old man with such petty tricks. Do you think this old man will fall for it?" Ou Pingxuan indeed flew into a rage, and with a flourish of the sword in his hand, a blazing inferno roared to life, transforming into a giant tiger of flames in the midst of his angry roar.

This fire giant tiger stood nearly ten feet tall, easily taller than a person. Though it was formed from the laws of fire, it appeared almost tangible, as if condensed from magma.

This is the biggest difference between divine arts and swordsmanship. Although swordsmanship can also use qi to form illusions, like wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, its inherent power is not very great. It is more used to confuse vision and disturb the opponent’s mental state, whereas the dharma image congealed by divine arts can invoke the power of the laws to a much greater extent.

Usually, the higher the cultivation of the priest, the more condensed the laws are when performing divine arts, and the stronger the power. Ou Pingxuan’s fire tiger was solidified enough to resemble magma, and its inherent power could be imagined.

In the midst of its roar, the fire tiger charged wildly, opening its ferocious maw towards Mu Hanyan, revealing its dazzling fiery-red fangs. As its four feet stepped over the ground, a trail of charred footprints rapidly appeared on the ground beneath.

"Master Priest, be careful!" Shen Yuhe exclaimed in shock, her voice high with alarm.

Beside her, Sikong Qinglan, Wen Gaoren, Gu Qingyang, and others were also filled with expressions of utmost shock.

If that previous sword strike was not enough to reveal the opponent’s full strength, then this time, his power was entirely laid bare before everyone. This was undoubtedly a Tenth Rank Divine Heart Priest-level expert.

Although Mu Hanyan had previously displayed the strength of a Divine Heart Priest, seemingly more than just an Initial God Heart Priest, she was still far from reaching the Tenth Rank Divine Heart Priest realm. Facing such an enormously powerful divine art from the opponent, how could she possibly have any chance of resistance?

Without any hesitation, several people simultaneously unsheathed their swords, forming hand formations and each performing their most adept divine arts to attack the fire giant tiger.

Of course, they knew that with their strength, they could not possibly be a match for the opponent. They did this merely to share a bit of pressure for Mu Hanyan. They also understood that their actions were almost akin to courting death, but they had no better choice.

Seeing them take action, Ou Pingxuan merely smirked coldly. With strength like theirs, he didn’t even need to lift a finger; the power of the laws within the fire giant tiger alone could shock them to death. However, thinking about the array formation technique on Mu Hanyan, he still moved his divine sense to slightly withdraw two-tenths of his spiritual power.

After all, to truly help the Lingyu Divine Hall out of its predicament and ensure the long-lasting prosperity of the Ou Family, keeping a firm grip on the Lingyu Divine Hall, the array formation technique on Mu Hanyan was crucial. Before obtaining her set of techniques, Ou Pingxuan did not want to easily take their lives.

In his view, her life or death was just a matter of his whim. After Mu Hanyan was honest enough to hand over the array formation technique, it wouldn’t be too late to silence them.

Unfortunately, these were just his own thoughts.

Just as his thoughts pivoted, his eyes suddenly froze, his cold smile solidifying on his face. Sikong Qinglan and the others also halted in their tracks simultaneously, their eyes showing extreme shock.

That tiny flame, more fragile than a candle flame, suddenly burst open, flashing a blinding firelight that stung their eyes. Immediately after, a burning fire spear inexplicably appeared.

This scene wasn’t unexpected for them; in fact, they had seen it many times before and wouldn’t make a fuss about it. But unlike before, this time, the fire spear possessed a metallic luster, its solidity on par with that of the fire giant tiger.

Moreover, beyond the law aura unique to divine arts, it also contained another kind of terrifying and gripping air of danger.

What’s going on? Has the Master Priest’s strength also reached the Tenth Rank Divine Heart Priest level? This was obviously impossible, but why was that fire spear so solid? What on earth was that aura so distinct from the divine arts laws?

Before they could fully understand, the fire spear plunged directly into the ferocious maw of the fire giant tiger. The fire tiger, condensed with the spiritual power of a Tenth Rank Divine Heart Priest, naturally had no weak defense. Compared even to powerful tiger-like exotic beasts, it was not lacking, possibly even stronger. Yet against Mu Hanyan’s fire spear, it was as fragile as paper.

In just a blink, the fire spear pierced through the giant body of the fire tiger, heading straight for the masked elder on the opposite side. The fire giant tiger let out a mournful wail and shattered into streams of light.

Ou Pingxuan’s face drastically changed. Who the hell said Mu Hanyan was at most an Initial God Heart Priest? If this was just an Initial God Heart Priest, then had his entire life’s cultivation amounted to nothing?

Seeing the fire spear stabbing straight into his chest, Ou Pingxuan truly felt the urge to strangle Ou Dechuan to death. However, if such a thing were to happen, it would only be after he saved his own life.

"Earth Shield, defend!" In a moment of desperation, Ou Pingxuan didn’t even have time to think, rapidly forming hand formations.

With a sweep of his longsword, a massive stone shield appeared in front of him. That stone shield glistened with a lustrous shine throughout, as if crafted from the hardest quartz and iron jade, with runes displayed on its surface.

Shen Yuhe and others were slightly startled again, remembering that with the opponent’s cultivation, he could fully comprehend a second or even third law.

The defense power of the Earth Law was something they had witnessed before. And the opponent’s Earth Shield was evidently far beyond anything they had seen from Fang Donglai, an advancement not just by one realm, but ten or a hundredfold in strength.

But soon, they realized they had worried too much. Even if the opponent’s Earth Shield far surpassed Fang Donglai’s, it could not withstand Mu Hanyan’s terrifying and shocking Eight Desolate God Fall.

"Boom!" With a flash of red light, the fire spear pierced into the stone shield, followed by a thunderous sound of its shattering.

Everything happened in just a moment. The black cloth covering Ou Pingxuan’s face was soaked in cold sweat. His hands desperately formed hand formations, and his mouth chanted swiftly.

One, two, three... a total of ten stone shields with shimmering patterns stood in front of him.

But even so, they could not withstand the power of the Eight Desolate God Fall! A series of thunderous booms resounded, and the ten stone shields exploded one after the other. Some had not even fully condensed before the fire spear pierced through, turning them into shards of stone shooting in all directions.

Behind, Shen Yuhe and others were already dumbstruck, aware of Mu Hanyan’s might, but never expecting it to extend to such an extraordinary degree. This was a Tenth Rank Divine Heart Priest-level expert, yet in front of her, they were utterly defenseless. At this moment, they even felt a bit relieved for Long Aoli, who managed to survive under Mu Hanyan’s hand; his luck was truly extraordinary.

Even they were astonished, as was Mu Hanyan herself. She had not anticipated that the combination of her Great Sword Master Peak swordsmanship cultivation with divine arts would be so irresistibly powerful.

Bear in mind, the opponent’s strength would be considered at the Great Sword Master level compared to the Holy Court Continent. Even if he couldn’t defeat her, he should not have been rendered so helpless.

Finally, fear appeared in Ou Pingxuan’s eyes. He swiftly turned around and fled into the distance. The information was wrong; Mu Hanyan’s strength far exceeded expectations. If he didn’t escape, he feared he wouldn’t even be able to save his own life.
