Shrouded Sky

Chapter 257 - Suppressing The Leviathan

The Grand Desolate Halberd, pitch black, cold and gloomy, heavy as a mountain, even cultivators of the Four Pillars Realm could hardly hold it in their hands. At this moment, it fell from the sky, landing on a sheer cliff, instantly sending smoke and dust soaring.

Everyone was dumbfounded. The pitch-black Grand Desolate Halberd smashed the stone cliff, sending dust into the air and giant rocks rolling down with a rumble.

“The legend is true. Even cultivators in the Four Pillars Realm may not be able to hold it, I never thought it would really be so heavy.”

“It broke off more than ten meters of the cliff just by impact, just how heavy is the Grand Desolate Halberd?!”

Everyone was shocked. It wasn’t a massive object but simply a weapon held in one’s hand, yet they couldn’t help but marvel at the strength of the Leviathan God Race, able to wield something so heavy in battle.

The true form of the Leviathan Prince was several dozen meters long, golden and dazzling, radiant in brilliance, its wings striking the heavens, the fierce wind shaking heaven and earth.

At this moment, Ye Fan landed on its back and began a fierce fight. The giant golden bird body shook violently.

Boom!

The nine-meter-high great cauldron smashed down, golden feathers flying everywhere. Even one as powerful as the Leviathan Prince in his true form couldn’t endure it, crying out to the skies.

His whole body shone with golden light, shooting out tens of thousands of sword energies, attempting to cut Ye Fan down. But now he was exhausted, and with Ye Fan protected by the cauldron and the green lotus, they couldn’t harm him.

“I don’t believe I can’t smash your flesh!”

Ye Fan didn’t use his divine sense but only struck with the great cauldron, making the Leviathan Prince’s true form cry out long and loud, messy golden feathers scattering like streaks of light.

Bang!

Ye Fan held the cauldron and struck the Leviathan Prince’s back repeatedly, always in the same spot. A sound of bone cracking rang out.

The Leviathan Prince spat out a mouthful of blood, two of the bones in his back broken.

“I’m going to kill you!” His eyes were filled with endless killing intent.

Golden light dazzling, he transformed into human form, struggling to break free.

Dong!

Ye Fan sat on his back, sticking there, and lifted the cauldron down onto his head.

Even one as strong as the Leviathan Prince was dazed by the blow, feeling the world spin and his ears ringing.

Dong!

Ye Fan didn’t want him to recover, and struck again with the cauldron, making the Leviathan Prince dizzy, as if drunk, rolling in the sky.

However, he was after all a young generation powerhouse, undefeated among his peers since his debut, with astonishing combat power.

“Ah…”

He let out a loud roar, golden hair flying, about to throw Ye Fan off, sword energy shooting into the sky in fierce resistance.

Bang! Bang!

Ye Fan’s fists rained down on his head, neck, and back. The Leviathan Prince spat blood, rolling over and over.

In the distance, everyone was stunned. The arrogant Leviathan Prince was being beaten while someone sat on his back, such a scene was hard to imagine, yet it was happening now.

Bang! Bang!

Ye Fan sat astride the Leviathan Prince, punching again and again, making his hair messy, his face bruised, blood splattering.

Everyone was in a daze. The dignified Leviathan Prince was being beaten so badly, falling into such a state.

“Enough, the battle should end now!” In the distance, a demon race cultivator spoke coldly.

“Your Highness, tell him to stop.” Another spoke up, they were all followers of the Leviathan Prince.

“Yes, let the battle end here.” Even the followers beside the lady in green spoke.

Yan Ruyu nodded. There was no need to continue; the outcome was almost decided. The Leviathan Prince was the descendant of the Leviathan God Race’s royal line, if he died here, the consequences would be severe.

“Who said I lost? It’s not over yet!” the Leviathan Prince roared angrily, golden light surging into the sky. He suddenly shook his body and flung Ye Fan away.

“This is… the Leviathan War Dragon Art!” someone exclaimed.

“Isn’t this sacred battle art only usable above the Four Pillars Realm?”

“Damn, this crazy bird wouldn’t have undone his seal, would he? Trying to shamelessly kill Ye Fan?!” Tu Fei was shocked.

“The War Dragon Art, seeing it again, damn, I’m furious!” The big black dog muttered, as if recalling some past event.

When the Leviathan War Dragon Art took form as a diagram, it could also be called the War Dragon Diagram!

Boom!

Golden divine flames blazed around the Leviathan Prince, and behind him appeared the War Dragon Diagram!

A golden divine bird, entwined with a true dragon, vividly manifested, exuding supreme might, shaking people’s souls, making even the distant spectators uneasy.

“Your Highness, stop him! That crazy bird has undone the seal, breaking his word!” Tu Fei shouted.

Yan Ruyu shook her head. “His seal won’t be undone in less than an hour.”

The man in green nodded. “The Leviathan Prince didn’t undo his seal, he used a secret method to force out the War Dragon Art!”

“This supreme forbidden method is terrifying, it’s the Leviathan God Race’s top secret. It can be called both a killing technique and a phenomenon.” The big black dog spoke lowly.

The Leviathan Prince stood like a god, dazzlingly bright, the War Dragon Diagram behind him, its terrifying might like a vast sea surging toward Ye Fan.

“Since my birth I have never been defeated, yet you’ve made me so miserable. Even if you are the Primeval Desolate Sacred Physique, today... I will kill you!” His voice was cold, his hair stained with blood, his gaze terrifying.

The Leviathan Prince’s whole body turned golden, flames blazing even fiercer, his pupils turning gold as he punched forward.

The dragon’s roar shook the heavens!

Behind him, the golden Leviathan came alive, turning into lightning to strike at Ye Fan, followed closely by a true dragon!

The terrifying aura, the supreme might, made people tremble and want to kneel.

“Damn, it really is the War Dragon Diagram!” the big black dog gnashed his teeth.

Boom!

Beside Ye Fan, the green lotus appeared, swaying out a curtain of light to protect him.

The golden Leviathan’s claws stretched wide, its golden wings slashing down, the true dragon coiling to crush Ye Fan.

But something shocking happened, the Leviathan and the dragon vanished inexplicably a meter from Ye Fan.

The Leviathan Prince’s body trembled, the War Dragon Diagram reappearing behind him, Leviathan and dragon facing each other, vividly lifelike, their might still intimidating.

“What happened just now?”

“Why did the War Dragon Diagram vanish when it flew out, only to return behind the Leviathan Prince?”

“The Primeval Desolate Sacred Physique can resist phenomena, the War Dragon Diagram can also be called a phenomenon, and it was suppressed!”

“How is this possible? In ancient times, the War Dragon Diagram was unstoppable and rarely suppressed…”

Everyone was stunned, this was the ultimate confrontation between two supreme physiques.

Ye Fan calmly said, “Your phenomenon is useless against me.”

“The War Dragon Diagram is both a phenomenon and a killing technique!” The Leviathan Prince gritted his teeth, pouring in godpower. The diagram grew even more fearsome, the Leviathan and dragon seemingly descending into the world.

Then the Leviathan merged into his right hand, the dragon into his left. One could faintly see a Leviathan wrapped around one hand and a dragon around the other.

“When the manifestation is hidden, that is the supreme Leviathan War Dragon Art!” The Leviathan Prince shouted, attacking barehanded.

Boom!

In his hands, Leviathan and dragon appeared faintly, seemingly able to crush mountains, striking toward Ye Fan. The Leviathan’s and dragon’s auras shook the soul.

Below, a mountain was hit, grass and trees turned to ash, rocks flying, the peak nearly collapsing.

Bang!

Ye Fan countered with the Holy Fighting Method, his golden fist colliding with the Leviathan and dragon. Energy waves surged, blasting both of them away.

In the distance, everyone’s hearts pounded. If such a supreme technique hit them, they would turn to ash!

Ye Fan flew back, calm, his golden palm striking forward.

The Leviathan Prince was slapped away, unable to execute the supreme technique again.

“What’s going on? Just now that bird’s aura was terrifying, but suddenly it’s gone?” Tu Fei was puzzled.

“I see, it’s because the supreme Leviathan War Dragon Art can only be used in the Four Pillars Realm. It’s already good he could strike once.” The man in green explained.

“He couldn’t harm the Primeval Desolate Sacred Physique with one strike, and now he can’t launch a second, his divine power is exhausted.” Yan Ruyu nodded.

“If it were in the Four Pillars Realm, what a terrifying scene it would be to unleash the supreme Leviathan’s War Dragon Art?” Tu Fei was shaken.

Ye Fan charged, his golden fist smashing into the Leviathan Prince’s face, sending him flying, coughing blood.

In an instant, Ye Fan caught up, raining heavy blows onto the Leviathan Prince’s body.

“I want to see how many punches it takes to break your bones!”

Ye Fan’s golden fists struck the same spot. After nine consecutive punches, the Leviathan Prince’s chest bones cracked.

He didn’t stop, striking other spots, soon discovering that seven to nine punches in one place would break the Leviathan’s bones.

“So that’s how it is!”

Ye Fan was surprised to find that besides having an extremely strong physique, the Leviathan Prince also mastered the Leviathan’s Rebirth Technique.

It was this innate divine art that made the Leviathan Prince’s endurance ridiculously strong.

The Leviathan Prince roared, his eyes still full of killing intent, counterattacking even now.

Bang!

Ye Fan smashed the cauldron into his head, this time knocking him out completely.

Now, no matter how unwilling he was, the Leviathan Prince had no options left, his godpower was exhausted, and he fainted.

Ye Fan kept striking heavily, exploring the Leviathan God Race body’s secrets. In that moment, he threw more than a hundred punches, figuring out which parts were strongest and which weakest.

All this happened in an instant, the bone-breaking sounds almost continuous. Those trying to stop him were already too late.

“Stop at once!” A demon cultivator shouted, the Leviathan Prince had the hope of walking the path to becoming an emperor. If crippled by the Primeval Desolate Sacred Physique, it would be an immeasurable loss.

“The battle is over, stop now.” Even the man in green spoke, not wanting to cause great chaos.

…

Bang! Bang!

Ye Fan threw more than three hundred punches, breaking over forty bones in the Leviathan Prince’s body, even his jaw was broken.

He knew he couldn’t kill the Leviathan Prince, or it would cause a huge disaster, the demon race wouldn’t let it go.

So he was precise in his strikes, aiming only to understand the Leviathan bones.

By the time the others rushed over, the Leviathan Prince’s fiftieth bone was broken, his powerful body almost in tatters.

“Why didn’t you stop earlier?!” a demon cultivator shouted.

“Leviathan Prince, are you alright?” Someone shook his body.

“It’s fine, he’s not in mortal danger.” Yan Ruyu, as beautiful as a moon palace fairy, white clothes fluttering, swept her gaze over the crowd, calming their emotions.

“The Leviathan Prince was actually defeated…”

“The Primeval Desolate Sacred Physique is frightening. A pity he can only stop at the Dao Palace Realm, never regaining his past glory.” Many shook their heads.

Everyone looked strangely at Ye Fan. Rumor had long said that the Leviathan Prince had a chance to walk the path of the Demon Emperor.

But such a young demon king was beaten badly in the same realm by someone the world called a crippled body, his body nearly destroyed.

If Ye Fan could enter the Four Pillars Realm, it would be like knocking the Leviathan Prince out of the emperor qualification battle.

“Pity, he will never be able to step into the Four Pillars Realm in his life!” someone sighed.

“Although the Leviathan Prince lost to the Primeval Desolate Sacred Physique in the same realm, his path to the emperor is unobstructed. This battle may actually benefit him.”

“The Primeval Desolate Sacred Physique indeed lived up to the legend, continuing the undefeated myth. Pity he’s reached the end, with no further path.”
