SOVEREIGNTY WAR EMPEROR, VOLUME 2 - Season 8 Episode 1

“A grade three spirit weapon that provides an amplification of 70%?” The spectating area all the Zhang Clan higher-ups were seated at was deathly silent.

After a short moment, the group of Zhang Clan higher-ups looked at the Zhang Clan’s Patriarch. “Patriarch, the grade three spirit weapon in the possession of the Eldest Young Master is…”

“I don’t know either.” Patriarch Zhang shook his head slightly stiffly, his gaze never left Zhang Shou Yong’s spirit weapon gourd, and his heart was filled with shock.

Where did my eldest son obtain this spirit weapon?

In terms of amplification, even the grade three spirit weapon in the possession of the Darkhan Dynasty’s Imperial Family is probably far inferior to this spirit weapon.

“Another grade three spirit weapon that provides an amplification of 70%!” The pupils of Xiang Ying who sat by King Yong’s side constricted, and for a time, he couldn’t refrain from sending a voice transmission to ask the violet clothed young man in the distant sky. “Brother Ling Tian, Zhang Shou Yong’s spirit weapon…”

“Pavilion Master Xiang, you’ve guessed correctly. This grade three spirit weapon in the hands of Big Brother Zhang was personally refined by the grade three Weapons Craftsman behind me.” When he heard Xiang Ying’s voice transmission, he even didn’t turn around to look at Xiang Ying before being able to guess Xiang Ying’s thoughts.

“As expected!” Although Xiang Ying had indeed guessed so earlier, now that he heard Duan Ling Tian admit it himself, Xiang Ying couldn’t help but be greatly shocked in his heart.

From this, Xiang Ying realized a problem, and it was that so long as the grade three Weapons Craftsman behind Duan Ling Tian were to refine a spirit weapon, practically all the spirit weapons refined were top grade amongst the top grade…

The grade three spirit whip in Feng Tian Wu’s possession was capable of providing an amplification of 70%.

The grade three spirit weapon gourd in Zhang Shou Yong’s possession was capable of providing an amplification of 70%.

Besides that, when he became acquainted with Duan Ling Tian all those years ago, it was because Duan Ling Tian had placed a grade four spirit sword in their Treasure Gathering Pavilion, a grade four spirit sword that could provide an amplification of 60%.

“Exactly what sort of existence is that weapons craftsman?” At this moment, Xiang Ying was even more curious about the Weapons Craftsman behind Duan Ling Tian.

As for the other people in the surroundings of the Cage Battle Arena, all of them were surprised.

“This is the fourth grade three spirit weapon that has appeared today… I thought that Zhang Shou Yong would lose to Ye Xiao, yet I never imagined that he would withdraw a grade three spirit weapon!”

“Yeah, Zhang Shou Yong who possesses a grade three spirit weapon has completely surpassed Ye Xiao in terms of strength!”

…

The scene before them caused the group of spectators to feel that a turn in the road had appeared.

Bang!

Another enormous bang sounded out, and it was caused because Zhang Shou Yong’s wine gourd was smashed out once again by him after it returned to him, causing it to collide with the crescent moon controlled by Ye Xiao.

After a few head on collisions, Zhang Shou Yong’s expression remained unchanged, whereas, Ye Xiao’s countenance seemed pale.

“Zhang Shou Yong!” With a raise of his hand, Ye Xiao’s crescent moon flashed back to return into his hand. “I truly never imagined that after not seeing you for so many years, you actually have obtained such fortune to obtain a grade three spirit weapon like this.”

Originally, as far as he was concerned, it was completely sufficient to crush Zhang Shou Yong with the two types of Concept he’d comprehended.

But out of his expectations, Zhang Shou Yong actually possessed a grade three spirit weapon, and it was a grade three spirit weapon that was capable of providing an amplification of 70%.

After numerous head on collisions, he felt a wave of powerlessness in his heart.

“You’re able to comprehend two types of Concept, so why can’t I possess a grade three spirit weapon?” Zhang Shou Yong spoke with a calm expression.

“Zhang Shou Yong! Since you possess this grade three spirit weapon, I know I’m not a match for you… But if you didn’t possess this grade three spirit weapon or your strength was equivalent to me, then it would be impossible for you to defeat me!” Ye Xiao spoke in a slight disgruntled tone.

“Is that so?” Zhang Shou Yong started laughing. At the same time, the Origin Energy on the spirit weapon gourd in his hand faintly subsided slightly.

At the same time, the ancient mammoth silhouettes that were more than Ye Xiao gradually dispersed in the sky above Zhang Shou Yong.

29 ancient horned dragon silhouettes coiled in the sky, and they stood facing the 29 ancient horned dragon silhouettes in the sky above Ye Xiao.

“What do you mean by doing this?” Even though he asked like this, but Ye Xiao’s eyes revealed at strand of imperceptible delight.

“Nothing much. Didn’t you say that I’m relying on the might of my spirit weapon and relying on my strength that surpasses you to defeat you? Now, I’ve suppressed my strength to a similar level as yours to fight you… Are you satisfied?” Zhang Shou Yong spoke slowly, and his expression still remained calm as if he was speaking about a matter of no importance.

For a time, the surrounding crowd of spectators were in an uproar as they felt Zhang Shou Yong was being careless.

“Zhang Shou Yong, you’ll regret this.” A wisp of an evil smile arose in the corners of Ye Xiao’s mouth as his legs slightly shook, causing him to flash towards Zhang Shou Yong once again.

Starfall Moonchaser!

With a raise of his hand, the grade four spirit saber in Ye Xiao’s hand flashed out once more, and it transformed into a crescent moon that flashed through the sky towards Zhang Shou Yong.

Bang!

Practically at the instant Ye Xiao attacked, Zhang Shou Yong stomped onto the sky, causing the enormous brick that appeared out of thin air beneath his feet to shatter with a bang, and then it transformed into nothingness as it had completely its mission.

Zhang Shou Yong himself instead shot into the sky like a cannonball, and he soared up into the sky in the first possible moment.

Zhang Shou Yong had a solemn expression when facing the crescent moon that changed directions and headed up towards him, and he used a voice that only he himself could hear as he mumbled. “Mt. Tai Suppression!”

Practically the instant the Zhang Shou Yong finished speaking, his wine gourd directly flew up into the sky with a raise of his hand, and it started expanding.

Of course, it didn’t really expand, but the Origin Energy in the surroundings of the wine gourd had skyrocketed, and it transformed into a wine gourd that was like an enormous mountain.

In the surroundings of this wine gourd condensed into form from Origin Energy and was like an enormous mountain, material earthen yellow energy swiftly coiled around and instantly caused the enormous wine gourd to seem as if it was real.

When faced with Ye Xiao’s attack, the enormous wine gourd fiercely plunged down with a speed that grew swifter and swifter.

Rumble!

Everywhere the enormous wine gourd passed, it gave rise to a wave of explosions in the air that sounded like thunderclaps.

At the same time, everyone in the sky above the Cage Battle Arena including Duan Ling Tian felt as if the scorching sun in the horizon had been covered up by this enormous wine gourd.

Before this enormous wine gourd, Ye Xiao’s spirit saber that had transformed into a crescent moon seemed like an ant.

“What ability is this?” Ye Xiao’s expression became slightly grim as a bad premonition arose in his heart.

Right at this instant, the enormous wine gourd fierce collided with the crescent moon that chased after Zhang Shou Yong like a shadow.

Bang!

An enormous bang sounded out, the enormous wine gourd shook in the sky while the crescent moon was instead blasted flying, and the Origin Energy and Concept within was instantly obliterated.

“Pu!” Ye Xiao’s Origin Energy had always been connected with the grade three spirit saber via his martial skill, Starfall Moonchaser, and not that everything on the spirit saber was obliterated, it caused him to suffer from a backlash as he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Right when Ye Xiao had once again held the grade four spirit saber in his hand.

Rumble!

The enormous wine gourd descended towards Ye Xiao from above, and it was as if an enormous mountain was enveloping towards Ye Xiao.

For a time, the surrounding area was enveloped by a shadow with Ye Xiao at the center.

“Hmph!” Ye Xiao’s gaze went slightly cold as Origin Energy coiled around the spirit saber in his hand, and then his two Concepts emerged at his call.

Swoosh!

In the next moment, Ye Xiao soared into the sky and seemed to have transformed into a bolt of lightning as he moved to intercept the enormous wine gourd.

“Let me see how many strikes of my saber your wine gourd that’s condensed into form from mere Origin Energy and ninth level Earth Concept is able to withstand!” Ye Xiao shouted out coldly, and in a short moment, he’d already swung out more than a few tens of strikes with his spirit saber.

Om! Om! Om! Om! Om!

…

Numerous narrow and long saber lights flashed out to descend onto the enormous wine gourd, and it seemed as if it smashed onto firm ground and easily penetrated into it.

It wasn’t long before a few hundred hideous saber marks had appeared on the bottom of the enormous wine gourd, yet the wine gourds speed of descent didn’t slow down in the slightest.

“How can this be possible?” In the end, Ye Xiao was slightly numbed.

Bang!

The enormous wine gourd finally smashed onto Ye Xiao’s body, and accompanied by an enormous bang, Ye Xiao swiftly fell to crash onto the cage above the Cage Battle Arena.

“Hu~ Hu~ Huhu~~” Ye Xiao who lay on the cage breathed heavily, and his eyes revealed slight terror as he looked at the enormous wine gourd that had stopped in midair.

He was unable to wrap his head around how Zhang Shou Yong achieved this.

The strength Zhang Shou Yong utilized was clearly similar to him, yet after Zhang Shou Yong utilized his Origin Energy combined with ninth level Earth Concept to coil around the grade three spirit weapon wine gourd’s surroundings to condense into an enormous wine gourd, it instead possessed the strength to easily crush him.

Up until now, he was unable to wrap his head around what ability Zhang Shou Yong had used.

He was sure that this was absolutely not the might of a martial skill!

It was impossible for even a high grade Earth Rank martial skill that was infinitely close to a Heaven Rank martial skill to be so abnormal.

“Zhang Shou Yong is victorious!” Once after the old man in the sky above the Cage Battle Arena recovered from his shock and announced did Duan Ling Tian and the group of young geniuses recover from their shock.

“Even though it was extremely outstanding, the martial skill Big Brother Zhang executed earlier was insufficient to allow him to instantly crush Ye Xiao… His Earth Concept is actually capable of forcefully condensing the Origin Energy that coiled around the wine gourd and had condensed into form to become an actual piece of earth!”

“Those numerous saber lights from the hundreds of attacks Ye Xiao shot out blasted onto the enormous wine gourd, yet most of its energy had been neutralized on the way by the earth that surrounded the spirit weapon wine gourd. In the end, when it finally collided with the spirit weapon wine gourd, it already didn’t possess much strength left, and it was utterly unable to affect Big Brother Zhang.” Duan Ling Tian couldn’t help but gasp.

According to the memories of the Rebirth Martial Emperor, there was only a single possibility.

The possibility was Zhang Shou Yong had already touched onto the threshold of Intermediate Concept.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to rely on ninth level Elementary Concept to condense his Origin Energy into a real piece of earth.

Materialization of Concept was something only Intermediate Concept was capable of achieving.

For example, once Water Concept was comprehended to the level of Intermediate Concept, it was even capable of condensing into real water when combined with Origin Energy.

The Fire Concept was similar, it was capable of being combined with Origin Energy to condense real flames.

No matter what Concept of nature it was, so long as it touched the level of Intermediate Concept, then so long as the person that had comprehended the Concept of nature was willing, they would be able to materialize the Concept.

“Just like when Han Xue Nai attacked that day… When her Intermediate Ice Concept was combined with Origin Energy, it could form into real snow and strong winds that swept out to directly freeze the target into a popsicle!” Unknowingly, Duan Ling Tian recalled the mysterious young girl.
