Divine King of Honour

At the same time the Undying Devouring Sky Beast Avatar headed to the Hell Sea, Xu Nian himself had already remained by the Fuyao Lake for a full ten days.

During these ten days, they had repeatedly tried to break through Fuyao Lake's forbidden barrier and step onto the island at the lake's center, but ultimately all attempts failed.

Within Fuyao Lake lay a giant Demon Beast, the Fierce Sky Tiger Whale, whose strength was extraordinarily powerful.

Whenever anyone set foot on the lake's surface, it would immediately launch an attack.

Previously, Murong Xue was able to suppress it below the lake surface by using her Ice Attribute Profound Argumentation Domain.

But gradually, she found that the Fierce Sky Tiger Whale became more violent; whenever Murong Xue stepped onto the lake surface, it would immediately collide with it, to the extent that even Murong Xue's Ice Attribute Domain could not withstand the whale's frenzied impacts.

Moreover, what troubled Xu Nian and the others the most was the Sword Qi emitted from the center of the lake.

There were instances when Xu Nian and the others were shocked and flew back by this Sword Qi.

The power of this Sword Qi was extremely strong, completely overwhelming them.

"Damn it, why is it so hard to break through Fuyao Lake? That Sword Qi just now was terrifying; if I were any slower, I'd be in pieces," Feng Cheng couldn't help but curse.

For the past days, he too had continually attempted to traverse Fuyao Lake's barrier, but all efforts had failed.

And it wasn't just him; Xu Nian and Murong Xue didn't fare any better.

"In the end, our power is still a bit lacking. The strength of this Sword Qi can already threaten those with Immortal Body Completion," Xu Nian commented.

Although his strength rivaled a Middle Stage Earth Immortal, he still fell short compared to a Middle Stage Earth Immortal with Immortal Body Completion.

"Let's just give up," Murong Xue said, shaking her head.

She indeed had exerted her utmost efforts, yet the results remained the same, leaving her with no choice but to surrender.

Xu Nian, however, furrowed his brows, remaining silent.

He knew that the Token from Fuyao Lake was crucial for Murong Xue. Without it, her future prospects would inevitably be heavily limited.

This was something Xu Nian didn't want to see, especially since Murong Xue had previously expended her trump card for his sake.

Now, unable to aid her in obtaining Fuyao Lake's Token, Xu Nian refused to be resigned.

"I'll give it another try later; this time I'll use my Space Profound Argumentation," Xu Nian declared.

He had tried using Space Profound Argumentation before.

But the Space Profound Argumentation Domain was still at the First Level Domain realm.

The power unleashed by the Sword Qi caused the entire space to become unstable.

Therefore, Xu Nian found it impossible to conduct Space Shuttling; attempting it forcefully might land him in a spatial rift.

"Forget it; you've already tried Space Profound Argumentation," Murong Xue said, shaking her head.

She understood Xu Nian's intentions, but deep inside, she'd rather forgo the Fuyao Lake Token.

"It's okay, I can try again," Xu Nian smiled.

With that, he headed towards the lake surface once more.

"I'll go with you!" Murong Xue stated.

However, Xu Nian shook his head, and in the next moment, he shot out towards the lake surface.

"Roar!"

A loud roar emerged from the lake.

The next moment, a colossal shadow was about to breach the water surface.

Xu Nian's gaze suddenly sharpened, and he activated the Gravity Space Profound Argumentation, attaching all gravity to his feet.

"Go!"

Xu Nian stepped onto the black shadow, and in the next moment, the shadow that was about to burst out of the water was stomped back to the lake's bottom by Xu Nian.

It emitted a whimpering sound.

"You can handle it this way?" Feng Cheng exclaimed from afar.

If he were the one dealing with this Fierce Sky Tiger Whale, it would probably take him a long time.

But in front of Xu Nian, the Fierce Sky Tiger Whale couldn't cause even a ripple.

Xu Nian stepped on the tiger whale and sped toward the center of the lake.

Murong Xue's expression turned serious; they all knew that the next challenge was the truly daunting one.

Compared to the Sword Qi, the tiger whale was a trivial obstacle.

"Buzz!"

Sure enough, at this moment, an extreme radiance shot out from the cloud and mist at the lake's center.

Its speed was incredibly fast, and its power intimidating.

Xu Nian's gaze became intense, and he swiftly mobilized his True Essence, while a King Jing Sword appeared in his hand.

"Slash!"

At his loud shout, the sword in his hand fiercely slashed towards the Sword Radiance.

The extreme brilliance collided with Xu Nian's sword tip, sparking a dazzling flare.

Xu Nian's tiger mouth immediately burst open, making his hands a bloody mess in the next moment.

His face was contorted in pain.

Murong Xue, watching from afar, was shocked and covered her mouth, her eyes filled with concern.

Feng Cheng notably winced, feeling chills run down his spine.

He had personally experienced the power of that Sword Radiance, and it was indeed an unbearable sensation.

Choosing to endure it directly was reckless, even suicidal.

"Break for me!"

Yet Xu Nian showed no sign of backing down, roaring boldly.

The Sword Radiance in his hand suddenly erupted with a strange oscillation.

In the next moment, the Sword Radiance that clashed against Xu Nian's sword tip began to fade and finally vanished without a trace.

With the disappearance of the Sword Radiance, Xu Nian exhaled in relief.

"Eh, he actually blocked it? How did that Sword Radiance vanish just now?" Feng Cheng expressed in surprise.

Originally, the Sword Radiance had a distinct advantage, and if Xu Nian had persisted momentarily, he wouldn't have managed to withstand it.

Yet the Sword Radiance vanished in an instant.

"It was Space Profound Argumentation. He applied the Space Shuttle Profound Argumentation to his sword tip, using the instability of space to nullify the power of the Sword Radiance," Murong Xue remarked in amazement.

"It can be done like that? Truly, Space Profound Argumentation is formidable," Feng Cheng said in astonishment.

Murong Xue didn't reply, instead focusing on Xu Nian, who continued moving forward.

Undoubtedly, the execution of that move had drastically depleted Xu Nian's energy.

Redirecting such a powerful attack naturally required immense self-exhaustion.

At this moment, Xu Nian's True Essence was nearly drained.

Nevertheless, Xu Nian showed no intention of retreating; his focus sharpened as he rushed toward the island at the lake's center once more.

"Buzz!"

Another Sword Radiance emerged from the mist.

Xu Nian's gaze turned cold, and he repeated the technique.

In the next instant, his arm's flesh burst open, exposing the stark white bone, a harrowing sight.

Just observing caused Feng Cheng and the others to share in the agony.

"Ahhh..."

Yet Xu Nian persisted, finally deflecting this Sword Radiance as well.

Seizing the moment before the third Sword Qi emerged, Xu Nian transformed into a streak of light, shooting into the mist.

"Eh? He got in!" Feng Cheng exclaimed in surprise.

Murong Xue's expression mirrored the astonishment; she hadn't expected Xu Nian to truly succeed.

Who knew what his current state was?
