Chapter 1710: Battle of Battle Intents

Xiang Shaoyun's powerful battle intent surged into the sky, breaking through the confines of the god-grade formation around house number 8 and reaching beyond the isolated space hosting the housing area. All the young Gods in the housing area sensed the terrifying battle intent.

That battle intent was more than a regular battle intent. It was the battle intent of three lives, and it had also accumulated their domineeringness. The arrogance of a lone sovereign contained in that battle intent caused great displeasure among the young Gods.

"Whose battle intent is that? Is he provoking all of us? How audacious!"

"It seems to be coming from house number 8. Is it Ling Ziruo? That doesn't feel right."

"No, it's not her. This is the battle intent of a man. It is incredibly arrogant and domineering. Who's so rash that he would unleash his battle intent upon all of us? Is he courting death?"

"I don't care who he is, but if he keeps his battle intent out, I'll teach him a lesson."

...

All the young Gods were indignant. Such a battle intent was the biggest provocation to them. They would not silently endure it.

In house number 8, Ling Ziruo had first-hand experience of Xiang Shaoyun's prowess. Her eyes lit up brightly as she gazed at the aura of dragons and tigers around Xiang Shaoyun's body. The majesty of his aura could not be hidden, and his overbearing God Realm energy was far beyond that of a regular fourth-stage Rebirth Realm cultivator. In fact, his energy seemed stronger than even a fifth-stage Rebirth Realm cultivator.

What a powerful battle intent, she exclaimed inwardly.

The Divine Battle Intent Tea would bring one's battle intent to the peak upon consumption. At the same time, it would reveal one's hidden potential. Ling Ziruo had long known of Xiang Shaoyun, but she did not look highly upon his chances of becoming the young guild master. But when she heard about how he had visited the young Gods one by one, she couldn't hold her curiosity and decided to meet him.

She wanted to see just how special this person was, this personal disciple of a guardian god who also possessed the innate devil abilities. Sure enough, he was extraordinary. His pride and his overbearingness caused even her heart to flutter. A man like that had absolute confidence in himself. Nobody would be able to stand in his path.

"Xiang Shaoyun, fight me!" After draining a cup of Divine Battle Intent Tea, Ling Ziruo attacked.

Because Xiang Shaoyun's battle intent was surging, he would probably turn mad if he did not have an avenue to vent his desire for battle. Ling Ziruo served as the perfect sparring partner for him to have a good battle.

The moment the two attacked, the god-grade formation in the house turned on and isolated the house from the outside world. Nobody outside could sense anything from the house. Only those within could know what was happening.

Xiang Shaoyun was at fourth-stage Rebirth Realm, while Ling Ziruo was at peak sixth-stage Rebirth Realm. There was a big gap between them, but when they fought, they were evenly matched.

Xiang Shaoyun held nothing back as he utilized his Three Lives Fist and profundities of powers, unleashing a chain of attacks on her. Ling Ziruo was Guangling Palace's number one palace lady. She was born with the Ethereal Physique, a physique that resonated with the world the moment she was born. With her physique, she could draw boundlessly from the ambient energy around her. As she thrust her palms out repeatedly, it was as though a silver moon was spinning before her. She was incredibly strong.

She pushed her combat strength to a level that would match an eighth-stage Rebirth Realm cultivator. That wasn't her full strength, but she believed that it would be enough against Xiang Shaoyun.

However, when her palm came in contact with Xiang Shaoyun's fist, she could feel a terrifying strength that not even her eighth-stage Rebirth Realm combat strength could overcome. She was forced to pour even more strength into her attack.

"Don't hold back. Use all your strength, or you will suffer a miserable defeat," said Xiang Shaoyun overbearingly.

He used the Three Lives Fist again and again, branding his punches with not only his fist intent but also the numerous profundities of powers. He was pushing his punches to an unimaginable level.

The power of his devil pearl worked together with his astral energy, granting him a terrifying strength.

"Fine. I'll see where your limits lie," said Ling Ziruo as she unleashed a series of palms. It was as though an immortal lotus was blooming, but at the same time, it was also as though a silver moon was rotating endlessly. Her attacks were incredibly destructive, threatening to destroy an entire world.

The nine palace ladies in the house hurriedly distanced themselves from the battle. They were forced to join hands to defend themselves against the battle's shockwaves. The two combatants were too terrifying. Working together was their only choice if they wanted to survive.

"Why did they start fighting? Did they have a conflict the moment they met?"

"Their battle intents are terrifying. I was so terrified I didn't even dare to open my mouth earlier. It truly is disheartening to learn of the massive gap between us."

"Xiang Shaoyun is courting trouble by challenging our senior. Senior Ling has a much higher cultivation level. I'm afraid he won't be her match even if they had the same cultivation level."

"But they seem to be evenly matched?"

…

Each house in the housing area could create a pocket space. Without that ability, the battle between Xiang Shaoyun and Ling Ziruo would have devastated the house.

Xiang Shaoyun attacked boldly without bothering to pull his punches. Ling Ziruo was doing the same. She might have a higher cultivation level, but she found that Xiang Shaoyun was an extremely thorny opponent. With Xiang Shaoyun's raging battle intent, he pushed his Primal Inception Physique to the limits, reaching a level that was beyond even the Ethereal Physique's ability to suppress. In fact, she would have been defeated long ago if it wasn't for her higher cultivation level.

Spatial Chain!

A white chain manifested beside Ling Ziruo. The chain stabbed through space, coiled around Xiang Shaoyun and formed an absolute seal around him. The spatial attack was extremely domineering. Even an eighth-stage Rebirth Realm cultivator would not be able to escape it. In fact, it was powerful enough to contend against ninth-stage Rebirth Realm cultivators.

That was Ling Ziruo's true strength. Left with no choice, Xiang Shaoyun mustered all his strength and blasted his palm at the empty air.

Divine Sinister Space Palm!

The palm transcended space and caught Ling Ziruo by complete surprise. A decent amount of the energy around her was scattered, causing her attack to weaken considerably. Xiang Shaoyun took the chance to unleash a primal chaos blade toward the chain around him, forcibly creating an opening. He charged toward Ling Ziruo.

"Time for your defeat!" said Xiang Shaoyun as he swung at Ling Ziruo's neck. He did not look like he was going to hold back.

Ling Ziruo's eyes shone brightly as she formed several hand signs, manifesting two silver moons that blocked the incoming slash. She then counterattacked.

Mirage of Twin Moons!
