Chapter 748: Di Xuanhe's Weapon, the Severing World Golden Wheel

The name Di Xuanhe carried immense weight.

Anyone who had studied Zhong Shan's background would immediately recognize the white-robed man as Di Xuanhe. At the very least, Ye Qingcheng and Tian Xiaozi had figured it out. This man was undoubtedly Di Xuanhe. Only a genius like Di Xuanhe could display such formidable strength.

Other Sky Extreme Realm experts present also recognized Di Xuanhe, and their pupils contracted in fear.

What kind of fierce person was Di Xuanhe?

Even with the newly acquired Sky Extreme Realm cultivation, he had once forced the Supreme of the Yang Realm's Dragon Clan into ascension. Such a terrifying figure, could he possibly be inferior to Blade Maniac or Hong Jian?

Some even speculated that Di Xuanhe's power rivaled Ye Qingcheng's!

The Sky Extreme Realm experts seemed to realize something and signaled their disciples to retreat quickly.

Upon recognizing Di Xuanhe, Ye Qingcheng immediately focused on Zhong Shan in the distance.

Something felt off. The previous uneasy feeling surged back into his heart.

Di Xuanhe, who the God Crow Daoist repeatedly emphasized as a fierce and formidable opponent, was said to be on par with him in strength. If so, then the Black Sea gamble was a foregone conclusion. Di Xuanhe would soon resolve the two Dao Lords on Ye Qingcheng's side. But what was he doing? Using their own techniques against them?

No, he was stalling for time. But why?

Ye Qingcheng couldn't comprehend it and looked towards Zhong Shan with a serious expression, a trace of anxiety flashing in his eyes.

Across the Black Sea, Zhong Shan sat on his dragon chair, leaning on the armrest, with a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.

Seeing Zhong Shan's smile made Ye Qingcheng even more uneasy. What was happening?

Tian Xiaozi, on the shore, also sensed something was amiss.

Something was wrong. Just as he was scheming against them, it seemed Zhong Shan was also scheming. Otherwise, given Di Xuanhe's personality, he wouldn't be dragging this out.

Di Xuanhe wasn't a soft touch; he was guiding Blade Maniac?

No, something was definitely wrong. Tian Xiaozi also had a bad feeling, as if his scheme was being countered by another.

Many spectators were immersed in the battle, captivated by the brilliance of the white-robed man, unaware of the underlying plot. Those who recognized Di Xuanhe, particularly the Sky Extreme Realm experts, grew increasingly restless, sensing a deep and dangerous conspiracy.

Ye Qingcheng couldn't pinpoint the source of his unease, growing more agitated by the moment.

Suddenly, he glanced towards the floating island where the Immortal Monument and the Ancestral Divine Beast were placed.

His pupils contracted. Where was the Ancestral Divine Beast?

It was gone!

In a flash, Ye Qingcheng sped towards the floating island. Zhong Shan, who had been watching him, quickly followed.

"Ye Qingcheng, what are you doing? Are you trying to renege after losing?" Zhong Shan shouted.

In an instant, they both reached the vicinity of the floating island, confronting each other.

"Where is your Ancestral Divine Beast? Without it, do you still intend to gamble? Are you trying to make a wager without any stake?" Ye Qingcheng's voice was cold, masking his growing anxiety.

All eyes turned towards them, and a sense of unease spread among the onlookers.

"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"

In the distance, Di Xuanhe struck with his blade, killing Blade Maniac with his own technique.

The audience's attention quickly returned to the duel. The scene had changed too fast, too bizarrely. They hadn't even had time to fully comprehend what had just happened.

One moment, Blade Maniac and Di Xuanhe were locked in a fierce battle; the next, Blade Maniac was dead, slain by Di Xuanhe's blade.

"What do you have to say now?" Zhong Shan reached out to grab the Immortal Monument.

Suddenly, Ye Qingcheng drew the Slaughter Immortal Sword, pointing it at Zhong Shan.

"What do you think you're doing?" Zhong Shan glared angrily.

In the distance, Tian Xiaozi flew over slowly, and Di Xuanhe quickly approached.

In an instant, they arrived close by.

At that moment, Ye Qingcheng's Slaughter Immortal Sword was pointed at Zhong Shan, but his expression was extremely blank, as if he was deeply pondering something.

"Impossible, impossible. Zhong Shan, is it you?" Ye Qingcheng's eyes suddenly turned red as he looked at Zhong Shan.

The countless spectators were slightly stunned. What was Ye Qingcheng doing? Was he refusing to admit defeat and trying to reclaim the Immortal Monument? At this moment, people stopped wondering where the Ancestral Divine Beast had gone and started thinking about Ye Qingcheng's behavior, deeming it disgraceful.

Even Tian Xiaozi was filled with confusion, the previous sense of foreboding growing stronger as he also looked at Zhong Shan.

Zhong Shan smiled faintly and said, "From today onwards, the Ageless Realm is erased from the underworld!"

Although Zhong Shan's voice wasn't loud, it spread far and wide.

Hearing this, almost all the spectators felt a mix of emotions. What was Zhong Shan talking about? Was he mad? Erasing the Ageless Realm?

Tian Xiaozi understood immediately, his pupils contracting in shock. No way, was the Black Sea gamble merely a distraction? Had Zhong Shan actually destroyed the Ageless Realm?

How could this be? How could an empire possibly destroy the Ageless Realm?

However, if this weren't the case, why was Ye Qingcheng reacting so dramatically? As the realm's lord, Ye Qingcheng must have sensed that the Ageless Realm's immeasurable merit was in jeopardy, explaining his drastic reaction.

Could it be true? Tian Xiaozi was instantly filled with terror as he looked at Zhong Shan.

"It really is you? I'll kill you!" Ye Qingcheng roared in madness.

The Ageless Realm was destroyed! Ye Qingcheng had never considered such a possibility because it seemed impossible. Zhong Shan had deliberately lured him here to destroy the Ageless Realm?

Nangong Sheng and Hao Meili hadn't come because they had gone to the Ageless Realm. But how could that be? With two Great Demonic Masters guarding it, how could it be possible? Yet, the loss of merit was real and undeniable.

The Ageless Realm was lost under his watch?

Ye Qingcheng instantly became incredibly furious.

With a furious roar, Ye Qingcheng swung the Slaughter Immortal Sword at Zhong Shan. The speed of the strike was terrifying.

However, Di Xuanhe was right there.

"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"

A loud explosion echoed through the air. A dazzling golden light radiated from Di Xuanhe, blinding the surrounding strong cultivators. Di Xuanhe blocked the Slaughter Immortal Sword's strike, the powerful collision shattering the surrounding space.

Tian Xiaozi retreated rapidly, while Zhong Shan seized the opportunity to collect the eleven Immortal Monuments.

The space around them fractured, and a powerful spatial black hole engulfed Zhong Shan, Ye Qingcheng, and Di Xuanhe.

The surrounding space trembled violently.

When the black hole dissipated, the three reappeared.

Zhong Shan stood in the back, with Di Xuanhe and Ye Qingcheng facing off.

Ye Qingcheng wielded the Slaughter Immortal Sword, its murderous aura soaring to the sky. With the sword's release, the area around Ye Qingcheng turned blood-red, the intense killing intent pressing down on Di Xuanhe.

Di Xuanhe finally revealed his weapon for the first time. The massive saber he previously wielded had disappeared. In front of Di Xuanhe now was a gigantic golden crescent-shaped wheel. The colossal golden wheel radiated beams of golden light, surrounded by mist. The wheel's surface was covered with strange symbols, the outer arc adorned with razor-sharp blades, and the inner arc equipped with nine gleaming spikes.

The golden wheel, standing as tall as two men, had Di Xuanhe positioned within its inner arc. As the wheel rotated, its outer arc clashed with the Slaughter Immortal Sword, creating not sparks but small black holes.

"Crack, crack, crack, crack!"

The weapons collided with immense force. Normally, a ninth-grade magic treasure wouldn't withstand the Slaughter Immortal Sword, but this golden wheel held firm. Its golden light flashed fiercely, intimidating anyone who looked at it.

"What is this?" Ye Qingcheng asked, horrified.

"The Severing World Golden Wheel!" Di Xuanhe replied solemnly.

"Severing World Golden Wheel? I've never heard of it!" Ye Qingcheng's forehead dripped with sweat.

"This is its first appearance!" Di Xuanhe said.

"Boom!"

The two separated briefly.

The Severing World Golden Wheel, with Di Xuanhe at its center, spun rapidly. Sometimes it circled around him, sometimes it encircled him completely, making him appear invulnerable. Wherever the outer arc passed, it left behind spatial fissures.

Ye Qingcheng looked at Di Xuanhe in shock. How could there be a treasure that could rival the Slaughter Immortal Sword?

At that moment, Di Xuanhe pointed, and the enormous Severing World Golden Wheel, spinning with terrifying speed, shot towards Ye Qingcheng. Wherever it passed, it left a curtain of blackness in its wake.

The countless spectators were stunned. The battle between Di Xuanhe and Ye Qingcheng was a world-shaking duel, one that truly made their blood boil.

On a distant peak, Tian Xiaozi watched the two combatants with a mix of awe and confusion. Beside him, another man appeared.

"Patriarch, when should we act?"

"Wait a little longer. They will start killing each other without our intervention. According to the original plan, we were supposed to help Zhong Shan eliminate Ye Qingcheng, delivering a severe blow to the Ageless Realm. But now that Zhong Shan has already destroyed the Ageless Realm, he's become even more formidable. We need to adjust the plan slightly. Wait for my command," Tian Xiaozi ordered.

"Yes!" The man nodded, then swiftly left the peak.

At that moment, a battered figure hurried towards Tian Xiaozi.

"Patriarch!" rasped a hoarse female voice.

"Tian Lao? What happened to you?" Tian Xiaozi asked in shock, looking at Tian Lao.

Tian Lao's hair was white, and she looked utterly exhausted.

"I was ambushed by the geomancer of the Great Yu Dynasty. He broke my Eight Silk Heaven Net Formation, and Xiao Wang betrayed us!" Tian Lao said, her voice filled with bitterness.

"What?"

"Impossible, Xiao Wang would never betray us!" Tian Xiaozi exclaimed.

"Patriarch, it's true. Otherwise, the geomancer of the Great Yu Dynasty wouldn't have found my location!" Tian Lao said, her face filled with hatred.

"No, I refuse to believe it. Xiao Wang has been loyal to me. He wouldn't betray us. It's impossible!" Tian Xiaozi shouted.

In the distance, the battle between Ye Qingcheng and Di Xuanhe intensified. The Severing World Golden Wheel was incredibly fierce, matching the legendary Slaughter Immortal Sword in power. The battle raged on without either weapon giving way.

"We'll see how long your wretched wheel can hold out!" Ye Qingcheng shouted, his voice tinged with madness.

He thrust the Slaughter Immortal Sword at Di Xuanhe once more. Di Xuanhe's lips curved into a slight smile, as if he had been waiting for this moment.
