Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts

Chapter 5155 Limitless Pine

Li Tianfan and the others watched in shock as Lu Fan invoked his Brahma Possession. They recognized it as his ultimate technique, but he had chosen to use it right from the beginning.

The entire world seemed to quake when Lu Fan used this technique. Divine radiance blazed from his body, and the figure of Lord Brahma emerged, merging with him. It was as if a god had incarnated in him. His Doyen power, Eternal energy, and faith energy fused into one, and his aura was so immense that it could suppress the very cosmos. Space itself fractured under the strain, unable to contain his sheer might.

“Die! Brahma God Slayer!” Lu Fan roared, concentrating all his power into his sword. His eyes blazed with madness as he unleashed the devastating strike, and the air reverberated with its force, as though the very world might shatter beneath its weight.

“It seems you’re angry or something. But so what? Without a weapon advantage, I’ll definitely beat the crap out of you today,” Mo Nian shouted. Instead of a Heavenly Fate Disk, an ancient pine appeared behind him.

“Limitless Pine!”

When the ancient pine tree appeared, it radiated an aura so profound and desolate that it seemed to alter the world’s very laws. Everyone felt as though they had been transported to another era because of this pine.

Mo Nian stood beneath the ancient pine, his aura unwavering. Even his usually wretched face took on a dignified and precious aura, influenced by the pine’s divine light. As the light enveloped him, Mo Nian’s aura expanded, becoming as vast as the cosmos.

Facing Lu Fan’s full-power attack, Mo Nian raised his sword and met the strike head-on. A powerful explosion shook the land, shattering Grand Dao runes and sending fragments of spacetime flying. Both Lu Fan and Mo Nian were forced to retreat, leaving everyone in shock.

Despite Lu Fan no longer holding back, Mo Nian managed to block his attack, showcasing his terrifying strength. Witnessing his prowess, Bai Yingxue and the others were both startled and delighted. They hadn’t expected Long Chen to have such a terrifying brother.

“Attack together! Don’t worry about him!” Li Tianfan suddenly shouted, charging toward Bai Yingxue and the others. The others followed, realizing that something was off. Mo Nian was already so terrifying, and if Long Chen advanced to the Eternal realm and matched Mo Nian’s level, their combined strength could potentially break through the blockade. It was a worst-case scenario for Lu Fan and the others.

However, just as Li Tianfan launched his attack, the void quivered, and Mo Nian suddenly appeared right in front of him, slapping him across the face.

“Wow, it worked!” Mo Nian exclaimed, clearly surprised by the success. He had used his manifestation’s power to shift positions with his opponent—a new technique he had just grasped after advancing to the Eternal realm. Since it was still fresh, he hadn’t had much practice with it yet.

This technique was a secret art of the Limitless Palace. The spatial fluctuations during the shift were so minuscule that even Li Tianfan hadn’t sensed them. Mo Nian used this technique to complement Long Chen’s divine face-slapping art, creating a nearly flawless merger. This slap delighted Mo Nian, making him feel like he had just discovered a new land.

Mo Nian realized that even if his movement art and slapping technique were inferior to Long Chen’s, he could make up for it with this secret art. Mo Nian knew that he could now unleash the same face-slap that made ghosts sob and gods weep, the face-slap that shook heaven and earth!

While Mo Nian sent Li Tianfan flying, Qin Keqing, Huang Wudao, Luo Yujiao, Yan Hong, and the others were about to reach the white dragon race experts.

“I, Mo Nian, have always felt myself to be shameless enough. But there’s no way for me to compare to you! It seems that I’ll need to keep working hard on it!”

In response to their sudden attack, Mo Nian quickly formed hand seals, and an illustrious palace suddenly appeared before them.

The palace instantly covered Bai Yingxue and the others, along with the Earth Cauldron replica.

Qin Keqing, Huang Wudao, Luo Yujiao, Yan Hong, and the others were all forced back by the divine light emanating from the palace, leaving them stunned.

“What the hell is this?!”

They couldn’t quite classify this palace. It wasn’t exactly a manifestation, and it didn’t seem like a treasure object either. If they were to say that it was real, well... they couldn’t sense its existence. But to call it illusory was also wrong, as its divine light had physically blocked them.

Qin Keqing was the first to react, striking the palace with her Dragon Bone Zither. The palace’s barrier of light subsided for a bit and then quickly bounced back, sending the Dragon Bone Zither flying.

The Dragon Bone Zither’s power hadn’t even exploded upon impact; instead, it simply bounced back as if deflected by a mirror. This barrier didn’t absorb or disperse energy—it merely reflected it. Even a Human Emperor divine weapon couldn’t damage it.

“Hehe, this palace was the only treasure that stingy fellow gave me. He finally helped me show off a bit,” Mo Nian chuckled as he saw that Qin Keqing’s attack was ineffective.

This palace was a gift from the Immoral Daoist Que De, who claimed that it was the symbol for the future palace master—something more precious than his life. He had instructed Mo Nian to protect it well, saying that it would activate on its own once Mo Nian’s power reached the necessary level.

Over the years, Mo Nian had grown skeptical of Daoist Que De’s promises, having been scammed by him too many times. However, when Mo Nian advanced to the Eternal realm, a fist-sized bronze cauldron that Daoist Que De had given him suddenly appeared in his mind-sea.

Simultaneously, a cultivation technique was transmitted into his mind from the palace. It taught him a “Defense” seal. Mo Nian tried it, and to his surprise, this simple seal involved using the bronze cauldron to set up a line of absolute defense.

Mo Nian found that it was so powerful that even a Human Emperor divine weapon couldn’t break it. Now, Mo Nian realized his master had truly given him a terrifying treasure.

Thanks to this treasure, Mo Nian was particularly fearless this time. With the bronze cauldron, he knew he could protect everyone.

BOOM!

Lightning exploded as Huang Wudao’s spear hit the barrier. It also made a large indentation and then bounced off. Seeing this scene, the top experts panicked.

“Kill Mo Nian together!” Lu Fan shouted, and the Brahma Divine Diagram appeared, covering Mo Nian.
