Chapter 232: The Brilliance Of Their Battle

Under the star-studded sky, Wang Xuan stood immovable, having effortlessly obliterated the entire mechanical legion with a single, decisive strike. Explosions continued to ripple through the battlefield, as the energy systems of the heavy-duty machines catastrophically failed, setting off a chain reaction that destroyed the surrounding mechanical beings. It was a disaster of epic proportions.

On the secret network, a stunned silence prevailed. Everyone watched, utterly shocked by the unfolding spectacle. The Sun family was in a state of disbelief, their faces drained of color. In mere moments, they had lost an unimaginable number of mechanical beings. It was like watching their wealth burn away, a bleeding of the Sun family's very essence.

This was a different scale of destruction compared to Chen Yongjie's earlier battle. While Chen had only paralyzed many machines and damaged a few components, those machines were largely intact and repairable. Now, the Sun family watched as their latest alloy materials melted away in the ferocious energy outburst, leaving nothing salvageable.

In the lunar-lit night, the horrifying glow of explosions lit up the sky, the blasts deafening, sending tremors through the earth itself. In Jingyue City, onlookers from high-rise buildings recorded the stunning scene, a spectacle unlikely to be witnessed again in their lifetimes. Frantically, they captured every moment.

The Sun family faced a night of unthinkable losses, a catastrophe beyond measure. "What are we waiting for? With the Zheng family already toppled, if this continues, Transcendents will supplant us. We must unite now to annihilate them, not a single one can be spared!"

Core members of the Sun family reached out personally to other influential families, breaking through unspoken boundaries and revealing harsh realities. The sudden upheaval within the Zheng family had sent shockwaves through the Sun family, who were acutely aware of the grave implications. Now, their elders and influential members were fervently lobbying, pushing their agenda with unparalleled urgency.

"Let us unite. This is a battle for dominion over consciousness. We share common values. If left unchecked, the financial dynasties will fall, usurped by others, and the New World will have new masters!"

In secretive discussions, some cautioned the Sun family to maintain composure, arguing that Transcendents were not the ultimate existential threat they were perceived to be. At the highest levels, a select few were privy to deep secrets, having glimpsed what lay three years ahead.

Revealing such information would undoubtedly cause a massive upheaval. By now, a handful of top financial dynasty leaders had begun accessing special information channels, further complicating an already intricate situation.

"Even if you choose not to engage directly, opting to observe from a distance, at least afford us some leeway. Do not hinder the Sun family from deploying their warships!"

Under the night moon, the vast, empty land lay silent, strewn with the shattered remains of mechanical beings, a landscape of wreckage and scrap metal. The Sun family's Transcendent, heart pounding with regret, lamented their initial decision to bestow the ancient lamp. In the hands of an enemy, its power had magnified beyond belief, seemingly reborn and far more potent than before.

He couldn't believe that the artifact, once solely targeting the spirit with its dark red arrows, now possessed physical offensive capabilities. Clad in ancient armor, designed to protect against the lamp's spiritual attacks, he found himself facing an entirely new threat.

In the cool moonlight, Wang Xuan walked forward, accompanied by the ancient lamp casting a hazy halo around him. He took the long spear from his back into his hands.

Clang!

In the distance, the armored figure shimmered with runes, drawing a misty green longsword from behind. With a swift motion, he swung the sword forward, unleashing a blinding flash of light. A green dragon seemed to leap forth, surrounded by swirling sword light, stirring the sky as Transcendent matter boiled around it.

This ancient sword, nurtured by Transcendent matter and long activated, was a true treasure. Its light was so intense it seemed to cut through anything. As it swept across, the remains of the giant mechanical beings, still partially intact, were silently sliced in two.

Such sword light was terrifying; ordinary Transcendents could not withstand it and would be split apart, reduced to blood and bone.

Wang Xuan did not evade. Holding his long spear and accompanied by the ancient lamp, he stepped forward, his speed astonishing. With each step, he shattered the ground, crossing hundreds of meters in a single bound.

Around him, miraculous visions appeared, shielding him from the relentless sword light.

Old Chen, watching intently, couldn't help but sigh. He knew he had to strive harder to attain such power. Wang Xuan's physical strength could now confront treasures directly, withstanding their force without faltering.

The armored man was stunned. His sword, a legacy of an ancient teaching, was wielded by few in this age of declining Transcendents. Could someone really counter it with mere physical strength? Inside the Sun family, there had been debates due to startling speculations about Wang Xuan. Now, he was convinced that this young man was comparable to the legendary geniuses of ancient lore.

The armored man, bolstered by various treasures, confronted other Transcendents like a deity descended, his every move radiating astonishing energy.

Clang!

He propelled the green sword, turning it into a streak of light that cut through the night sky, aiming at the young man ahead.

Shh!

Simultaneously, Wang Xuan controlled a short sword with his mind, sending it flying into the night. Its bright light illuminated the darkness, dazzling and brightening the entire desolate battlefield. In an instant, the long and short flying swords collided, sparking a fierce and intense battle.

The spectacle left people in shock. Never before in modern society had they witnessed such a scene a real sword fight, with flying swords clashing in the night sky. Were the legends true? Did ancient sword immortals really exist? Now, they were witnessing a battle with flying swords.

"Unbelievable, flying swords in the sky, just like the legends of the Sword Immortals of Shu Mountain coming to life before my eyes. Zhong Qing, I think I'm in love. Really, introduce me to that young sword immortal!" exclaimed a young spectator, completely captivated by the scene.

"I can't believe it, a flying sword duel... this is beyond anything," exclaimed the younger generation from the financial dynasties and major organizations. This was far more thrilling than any of their space races.

"Thinking of leaving?" Wang Xuan pursued relentlessly, the ancient lamp accompanying him. His flying sword slashed swiftly through the air, and he brandished a long spear, chasing after the Sun family's Transcendent.

Boom!

Suddenly, a terrifying beam tore through the night sky, coming from afar. This energy was so potent that even Transcendents couldn't withstand it, as contact would result in instant obliteration.

Wang Xuan anticipated this and evaded in time. Still, the residual energy from the terrifying beam sent him tumbling. Around him, miraculous visions appeared, and the ancient lamp glowed, casting a soft protective light over him.

Had it not been for the miraculous visions and the ancient lamp activated in a split second by Wang Xuan, the residual waves of the beam might have inflicted severe damage on him. The ground bore witness to the beam's devastating impact, with a massive crater formed and all matter within the area melted. The aftermath left rocks and remnants of mechanical beings liquefied and then evaporated.

The distant warship's firing was so powerful that even a land immortal would be reduced to a bloody mess upon impact.

Many gasped in horror as the Sun family, in their ruthless pursuit, unleashed their warship to obliterate Wang Xuan, disregarding all consequences. Yet, what seemed unbelievable to them was Wang Xuan's ability to evade such a wide-ranging attack.

Whoosh!

More shockingly, Wang Xuan didn't retreat towards Jingyue City but continued his pursuit of the armored man.

Thud!

Another terrifying beam came hurtling down, akin to a comet striking the earth. The energy and shockwave were so fearsome that mountains could be leveled and lakes instantly evaporated.

Wang Xuan evaded swiftly, anticipating and moving ahead of time. When the final shockwave hit him, it was again blocked by the light from the ancient lamp.

The onlookers were astounded. Was this ancient lamp defying the heavens? It seemed that as long as he wasn't hit directly, even the residual effects and widespread beams of attack were ineffective against him.

Wang Xuan relentlessly closed the distance between himself and the armored man.

Suddenly, the man turned around, wielding a yellow, gourd-like object.

Shh!

Wang Xuan activated the ancient lamp, launching an astonishing arrow, over a hundred meters long, even more terrifying than before. It struck the yellow gourd directly, followed by a series of arrows, shooting forth in rapid succession.

Simultaneously, he closed in at high speed!

Buzz!

The warship near the horizon hovered in the mid-air not far away, hesitating instead of attacking. Evidently, the Transcendent practitioner of new arts on the ground held a significant status within the Sun family.

At that moment, the bright short sword tore through the night sky, striking with a thrust, severing one arm of the armored man with a piercing sound. He cried out in pain, his spiritual energy thrown into disarray, causing the yellow gourd to plummet towards the ground. The warship remained suspended in the air but refrained from launching an attack.

Wang Xuan's eyes blazed with resolve. He mustered all his strength for a bold attempt. The warship, initially lurking at the edge of the horizon, had swiftly flown to a closer position. It wasn't at a great altitude, roughly about ten miles above the ground.

Boom!

In that moment, Wang Xuan's spiritual energy boiled over like never before. He resonated completely with the ancient lamp, activating it to its fullest to unleash his strongest strike.

Shh!

A red beam, as if tearing the blackened sky asunder, shot upwards, reaching the ten-mile height in the sky.

Bang!

The sky erupted in flames and blinding energy, followed by a colossal explosion that shook the heavens and earth.

"My God!" At this moment, everyone watching the battle was utterly stunned, expressing their shock with exasperated exclamations.

Then, Wang Xuan hurled his long spear with tremendous force. It soared across the sky and, with a thud, impaled the Sun family's Transcendent to the ground, pinning him there decisively.
