Chapter 146 Withstanding the Divine Body
Bright Moon Rising over the Sea was a Variation only mighty ancients possessed. Its might was incalculable. Back then when he displayed this Variation, he obliterated many Greater Demons without any of them being able to resist.
But at this time, he actually used this rare Variation against a nameless youngster. It truly astonished all the surrounded outstanding talents.
Ye Fan was alarmed. Their statuses were separated by heaven and earth. Ji Haoyue attacking him with his divine body had surpassed his expectations. In fact, it was beyond anyone’s expectations.
Although he had the Sacred Body and his golden Sea of Bitterness was extraordinary, he was unable to display it. It only stayed within his body.
Ye Fan didn’t even think the golden Sea of Bitterness was a Variation. It was merely an energy source. To cultivate a true variation would require much more time.
All of this happened in just a flash, and everyone around hadn’t even reacted.
The moonlight was like water, in an instant stopping right before Ye Fan, not descending down. Ji Haoyue was like a god above, nine halos appearing above his head, looking just like a divine king. He gazed at Ye Fan, his expression incomparably cold.
Beside him, Ji Ziyue exhaled in relief, saying, “What are you doing big brother Haoyue? Quickly stop. You’ve already cultivated three secret realms and he’s still only a little cultivator in the Wheel and Sea secret realm. Why do you need to use your Variation to test him?”
The others all immediately understood they had been wrong in thinking that he was using his Bright Moon Rising over the Sea Variation to test this nameless youngster.
Hua Yunfei walked up and said, “Senior brother Haoyue, put away your Variation. You have a divine body, and there’s no need to use it to suppress junior brother Ye.”
“Do you really think I was just testing him?” Ji Haoyue didn’t turn around, his gaze completely focused on Ye Fan. “I really did attempt to use my Variation to crush him, but something blocked me and the moonlight wouldn’t fall.”
“What?!”
Everyone’s expressions changed. How was that possible? Many of them actually assumed he was joking.
Ji Haoyue’s words were the truth. The very instant he saw Ye Fan at such a close distance he felt a strange feeling. His divine body involuntarily emitted light.
It wasn’t that he had a precious treasure on him that attracted him, but that his physique was extraordinarily special, thus causing a reaction from his divine body.
Hua Yunfei didn’t continue trying to stop him. He appeared extremely spiritual, his blue clothes fluttering, entering a serene state as he tried to sense something.
The Flickering Sacred Lady was the Flickering Light Sacred Land’s most outstanding female disciple. Her bright pearly skin sparkled, her whole body covered in light, her immortal body elegant and graceful like a divine lotus blooming. She also entered a tranquil state, closing her eyes and trying to sense something.
The moon gently revolved above Ji Haoyue’s head. Another wave of moonlight rushed down onto Ye Fan.
But it was just like the last time, stopping before Ye Fan’s body as if it was blocked by something.
The moon shook, and it was like a huge wave of white feathers spilled out, sparkling brightly with a sonorous reverberation.
However, it was still the same result. The pure white moonlight was still stopped, unable to descend, completely blocked by some invisible force.
The bright moon once more shook, releasing a moon blade. Back then, all of the various spiritual treasures of the demon race were completely crushed by it. Now he once more brought it out, sending it slashing forward.
“Big brother!” Ji Ziyue called out in alarm, but she was still bound in place and unable to stop it.
Hua Yunfei had a strange expression. He had once fought with Ji Haoyue and he had a deep understanding of that blade’s might. But what happened next caused everyone to be shocked. The moon blade actually became motionless. Although it had descended down very close to Ye Fan, it was still blocked.
By now, everyone was completely astonished. How could a nameless little cultivator block the divine body’s attack?
Why was it like this? Everyone’s gaze fell on Ye Fan, none of them understanding.
Everyone was aware that it wasn’t that the Bright Moon Rising over the Sea Variation didn’t live up to its name. This was something passed on from almighty ancients. Its might was definitely not questionable. Even experts of the senior generation might not be able to block it.
Back in the day, even the old women of the Greater Demons were unable to form the slightest resistance against the Bright Moon Rising over the Sea. Even tearing apart mountains and crushing the earth was not difficult for it.
Thus, this astonishing scene truly was amazing.
“My feelings weren’t wrong. At first sight I knew something was wrong…” Ji Haoyue muttered to himself.
The moon shook, slowly revolving. The sea behind him surged up, waves charging towards Ye Fan.
At this moment Ye Fan felt very strange. His body’s golden Sea of Bitterness was surging, violet lightning and thunder flashing. He wanted to bring it out, but he was unable to do such a thing.
However, an indescribable energy did overflow from it, blocking the Variation. He was the only one right now who understood just what was happening.
This was a contest between the Ancient Desolation Sacred Body and the Eastern Wastelands divine body!
The blue-green waves surged up. Their power was enough to move mountains and crush the earth. Even experts who had cultivated three secret realms would be ensnared within them, unable to move at all.
However, the raging waves were unable to bind Ye Fan. They all stopped in front of his body, the wild waves calming down and once more becoming calm.
It was at this moment that the bright moon slowly began to sink down. This was the most powerful killing attack of the Bright Moon Rising over the Sea Variation!
According to legend, the bright moon was able to move mountains and crush seas, tear apart the heavens and destroy the land. It was even able to easily kill an expert who was a whole secret realm above them.
The Wheel and Sea secret realm held four levels, while the Dao Palace secret realm held five. But a Variation was so powerful it was able to kill experts who were four or five levels higher than you! That was what a rare Variation was!
It was said that the Bright Moon Rising over the Sea Variation was limitless. As long as one continuously increased one’s cultivation base, this kind of Variation would continuously improve, becoming more and more powerful.
The moon lowered within the sky, bright as jade with gentle light overflowing from it. The light was like crystals, yet also like rainbow-colored glass.
The whole sky shone with endless light. Endless jade flowers descending, endless lights lit up and engulfed the world.
Ye Fan’s whole body hurt. Although his physique was extraordinary, even it was almost unable to endure anymore. The endless light made it so he was unable to move an inch.
The moon’s energy slowly crushed down, wanting to tear apart his body, crush his spirit, and exterminate his divine sense.
He was extremely unwilling to accept such an ending. His Sacred Body hadn’t yet been cultivated successfully. To fight a divine body who had cultivated three secret realms was naturally almost impossible. Everything was due to the cultivation base, not the Variation.
This time, the moonlight completely enveloped Ye Fan. The bright moon hung over his head. It seemed with just a shake from it, it would be possible to completely crush his body and spirit.
Huge waves soared within Ye Fan’s body and lightning and thunder flashed. A strange energy finally appeared, blocking the frightening pressure and slowly eliminating the moonlight.
At the same time, the bright moon was slowly forced away from his head.
Everyone was shocked. To be able to force back the Bright Moon Rising over the Sea Variation was simply too astonishing!
Only Ye Fan himself grumbled inside. He was almost unable to bear it, only just barely managing to force back the bright moon.
“My bright moon has Nine Revolutions. This is merely the first one and there are still eight more. Let’s see if you can handle it.” There were still eight halos above his head, the dazzling light connecting to each other like a crown, making him seem just like a divine king overlooking the mortal world!
In reality, with the birth of a divine body, he really was like the Eastern Wastelands’ divine king. Once he successfully cultivated to a higher level, he would be without match, completely invincible and worthy of the name of the Eastern Wastelands’ divine king!
“Big brother Haoyue, he’s only in the Divine Bridge realm. You’ve already cultivated three secret realms, he naturally can’t block you!” Ji Ziyue loudly shouted.
“I’ll only use a portion of my divine energy ok? Let’s continue. I’ll use the Wheel And Sea secret realm’s power to test him.”
Ye Fan immediately felt the pressure weaken, but when that bright moon continued revolving, he felt as if huge mountains were descending down on him. Cracking sounds came from his body, like it was on the verge of bursting apart.
The bright moon’s Nine Revolutions emitted bright lights that curled around the surroundings and tried to tear apart Ye Fan’s body.
Suddenly, his Wheel and Sea exploded out with a dazzling splendor like a huge golden sun, causing that bright moon to immediately become dark.
The silver moon was directly sent flying out, smashing into a mountain summit.
“What kind if physique is this to be able to block the Bright Moon Rising over the Sea Variation…”
“How is this possible?!”
No one doubted the power of the Bright Moon Rising over the Sea. That bright moon quickly proved its power. When it crashed into that mountain peak, silver light exploded out unrestrained, silently crushing that mountain into nothing but dust!
This caused everyone’s expressions to completely change. A divine body using the Bright Moon Rising over the Sea Variation was actually blocked by a nameless little cultivator! This was completely unheard of.
However, at this moment, Ye Fan was also sent flying, smashing into a huge mountain wall hundreds of meters away before finally stopping.
He wasn’t wounded, having only been sent flying by a powerful force.
Those geniuses were all amazed by this.
“Why would such a thing happen? He didn’t bring out any Variation, so how could he resist the Bright Moon Rising over the Sea?”
…
At this moment, Li Xiaoman was the most startled. Only she knew that Ye Fan had the Ancient Desolation Sacred Body. He had probably managed to successfully cultivate a bit, and thus was able to contest against the divine body.
Both were extremely impressive!
This was the evaluation that many people made.
Ji Haoyue used the Wheel and Sea secret realm’s power to use his bright moon’s Revolutions to suppress Ye Fan, but the result was they were both sent flying.
To be able to fight equally with the Eastern Wastelands’ divine body was definitely unimaginable!
A nameless little cultivator truly possessed such a powerful physique? Most of them were now completely focused on his body.
Ji Haoyue was the sun in the sky, but this youngster used just his physical body to contend against his Variation. This allowed everyone to sense his potential. If he were to be properly groomed, he might not be inferior to the divine body!
To most of them this meant he was practically a divine sprout. Although he was only around fourteen years old, he was definitely worthy of grooming.
“It really is unimaginable and a marvel.”
“It’s inconceivable for him to really be able to block the divine body’s Bright Moon Rising over the Sea Variation…”
Everyone looked at him like he was a precious gem. Ye Fan felt uneasy, sensing a big trouble was brewing.
Hua Yunfei’s expression was quiet. Plucking his zither, an immortal music filled the air like bubbling springs, letting everyone’s hearts calm down and once more sit.
Li Xiaoman’s expression was complicated as she looked over at Ye Fan before she eventually returned to her calm self.
Ji Ziyue sat together with Ye Fan, not sitting with Ji Haoyue. At this time he was frowning, but he didn’t say anything.
The Flickering Light Sacred Lady with her beautiful sparkling skin looked like a heavenly fairy who had accidentally landed in this world. She was one table away from Ye Fan, lightly nodding and thus transmitting her goodwill.
