Nine Star Hegemon Body Art

BOOM!

The Dragonblood Cross Slash struck Fantian De squarely. However, before Guo Ran could even celebrate, the divine light faded, revealing Fantian De unharmed.

His outer robes had been blasted apart, exposing a skintight scale armor beneath. This armor, made of thumb-sized scales, caused Guo Ran’s pupils to contract sharply.

Each scale pulsed with blood-colored runes—the core runes of Divine Emperors.

Guo Ran’s breath hitched. Every single scale represented a Divine Emperor’s life. This armor had thousands of such scales. In other words, this armor was forged from the sacrifice of thousands of Divine Emperors.

It was an evil relic from the primal chaos era, a treasure that had taken tens of thousands of years to craft. The Divine Emperors had been refined alive, their resentment purified by sacred energy without damaging their core power. Now, all that power was bound into this scale armor.

It was a priceless treasure, and it somehow ended up in Fantian De’s hands.

However, activating this armor was not so easy. Only after condensing thirteen heaven veins and reaching unprecedented heights did Fantian De qualify to wield it.

Had he not worn this armor, Guo Ran’s attack would have severely wounded him. Instead, the Dragonblood Cross Slash had failed completely.

Guo Ran wiped away a cold sweat. He muttered, “Good thing I listened to Boss and didn’t unleash everyone’s full power. Even if we had gone all out, it might not have been enough to break through that defense.”

Long Chen had told Guo Ran not to get too dependent on the Dragonblood Cross Slash. He had advised against gambling everything on a single move.

Despite that, Guo Ran had harbored doubts. He found it difficult to believe that the combined might of the Dragonblood warriors could be stopped by anyone in the same realm. But in the end, he had followed Long Chen’s advice, using only a tenth of each warrior’s power.

Guo Ran had been waiting for a chance to test whether this attack could eliminate a thirteen-vein expert, hoping to ease the pressure on everyone. Instead, he ended up encountering an armor that embodied sheer despair.

Breaking Fantian De’s defenses would mean exhausting the total energy of hundreds of Divine Emperors—without even considering Fantian De’s own strength. Just the armor alone was nightmarish.

Fantian De shuddered from the impact, his face contorted with fury. With a roar, he swung his sword at Guo Ran.

BOOM!

Guo Ran spat out blood as his saber was cut in two.

“What?!”

The Dragonblood Legion was shaken. Guo Ran had just reforged his masterpieces—how had his newly upgraded saber been destroyed so effortlessly?

Gu Yang reacted instantly, thrusting his spear toward Fantian De in an attempt to protect Guo Ran.

BOOM!

As a result, Gu Yang’s spear shattered on impact.

Fantian De sneered, “To die by the Brahma Blade, which was blessed by Divine Venerate Brahma, is an honor for you all.”

Having destroyed two divine weapons, the Brahma blade descended upon the unarmed Gu Yang.

All of a sudden, a giant golden sword materialized in front of Gu Yang—Bai Shishi had resummoned her golden goddess. However, even this radiant guardian was directly shattered by the Brahma Blade.

“That blade contains sacred energy. Only another sacred divine weapon can block it!” shouted Xia Chen.

“Die!” Fantian De shouted, swinging his blade at Gu Yang once again.

This time, a sword intercepted the blow—and it didn’t break.

When they saw who wielded it, shock rippled through the battlefield. It was Tang Wan-er.

Looking back at the fat woman, they saw that she was ensnared by countless chains, unable to move. The woman had split into dozens of figures, but each was bound tightly.

She had been playing with Tang Wan-er, trying to torment her before the kill. Each time Tang Wan-er struck her, she split into more clones. She liked to use this method to crush her opponent mentally.

However, Tang Wan-er was no longer the same person she had once been. After the third strike, she discerned that the fat sea demon lacked a true physical body—she was a spiritual entity composed of water energy. Ordinary attacks were useless against her.

Just as Tang Wan-er devised a plan to strike at her core, her attention snapped to Fantian De and the chaos he had made.

With no other choice, Tang Wan-er had to use the Wind God Chains to temporarily bind her opponent. Forged from the Wind God line’s faith energy, the chains capitalized on the fragmented weak clones of the fat sea demon. For now, she was unable to escape the bind.

Tang Wan-er had arrived just in time. Her sword clashed against Fantian De’s Brahma Blade, successfully stopping it.

The Brahma line wielded divine power—but so did Tang Wan-er. She carried the power of the Wind God, and the sword she wielded was a gift from Feng Xinyue before she entered the Heaven Vein Mystic Realm.

She had wielded it before without recognizing its true potential. But now, after condensing thirteen heaven veins, she finally resonated with it, unlocking its true strength. Though her control over the Wind God’s power was still superficial, her destructive force was already terrifying.

BOOM!

Divine energy exploded outward as their weapons clashed. Both Tang Wan-er and Fantian De were knocked back.

“You two rats have pissed me off!”

From a distance, Yue Changfeng’s furious roar shook the battlefield. He had finally lost patience. Breaking free from Li Qi and Song Mingyuan’s blockade, he charged at the Dragonblood Legion.

One-on-one, Yue Changfeng believed that no one could withstand more than three of his attacks. However, Li Qi and Song Mingyuan’s coordination was masterful. Their seamless blend of offense and defense had locked him down, restricting his movements.

After enduring this suffocating battle for too long, Yue Changfeng abruptly gave up on beating them and rushed toward the Dragonblood Legion. His rage needed an outlet—he had to kill someone to vent, or he felt like he would explode.

But midway, he suddenly changed his course, setting his sights on the Southern and Northern Alliances instead.

Guo Ran had previously ordered them to retreat, but with enemies surrounding them, where could they even go?

After assessing the situation, Xia Chen told them not to move from there. They had offended far too many factions. If things took a bad turn, they would be annihilated in retribution. Ironically, staying here was comparatively safer.

But no one had expected Yue Changfeng to be so shameless.

Just as he switched targets, a muscular figure silently appeared next him, swinging a bone club toward him.

BOOM!

This bone club smashed into Yue Changfeng’s body, and the impact sent shockwaves rippling across the battlefield, causing the ground to explode and sink. The entire world shuddered as Wilde’s large figure emerged.
