"Perfect level!"

Brian slightly narrowed his eyes upon seeing Su Ping's attack. It was the perfect law of chaos!

Besides, the attack was extremely powerful; he had rarely seen such an aggressive sword technique. The killing intent imbued in the attack was enough to make the proud dragons tremble!

However, he wasn't going to retreat!

After a boom, Brian's eyes had a dazzling glow when he activated his constitution. Another unparalleled aura rose to the sky, forcing everybody around him to retreat.

He was like a sun, bursting out and unleashing an infinite brilliance.

His battle style was especially to fight head-on!

'A golden spear appeared in his hand. Light burst out of the spear, almost freezing the flow of time; only Su Ping's and his weapons remained unaffected.

"Destruction!"

Brian roared, and slashed with his sword in the most splendid way.

'There was a boom, and the void was shattered. A terrifying amount of energy and laws formed a collapsed black hole where the sword and spear met, swallowing everything around them. The impact uprooted all the trees in the forest; not even the ground could bear the blast, and kept on collapsing.

Everybody was appalled as they watched the shocking battle.

The most powerful laws going head to head. It was truly terrifying!

Out of everybody's expectation, Su Ping, a mere Star State warrior, was able to fight Brian who had dominated the universe fifty thousand years earlier!

Is that really a kid who has just stepped into the Star State?

Su Ping's eyes glittered with excitement. He had rarely gone all out ever since he started training in the cultivation sites. His sword had just been blocked, as if having struck a mountain. It couldn't move any further!

That was a sword technique able to cut the sky apart!

Deity aura was burning inside Su Ping's body. The sword light kept on bursting; instead of beating the guy, he simply didn't want to dishonor his sword!

However, even though he was using his full strength, he was only able to suppress his opponent. Killing him didn't seem like a possibility!

Brian was even more shocked. His spear was an ancient weapon too and had been unstoppable in front of the most formidable foes. And yet, it had been blocked by Su Ping's sword!

Furthermore, he felt that Su Ping seemed to have even more strength than he did.

It was as if there were a terrifying monster inside his body!

Is he really in the Star State?

"Annihilation!"

Brian attacked again; this time, without hiding his true abilities. Two supreme laws fused, resulting in a strange phenomenon that carried a suffocating aura.

Su Ping's expression had a slight change. He detected that his law of chaos was being swallowed at a fast pace!

The guy's paths of time and destruction were both perfect. He had grasped them so well that he could fuse their traits!

Fusing features of perfect paths was thousands of times more difficult than fusing fundamental ones, because perfect paths couldn't be taken apart!

He's better at controlling laws than Iam!

Su Ping was quite alarmed.

As expected of an old famous Star Lord. There were too many unusual geniuses in the universe. He had only grasped the perfect law of chaos thus far. It was hard for him to win in a competition of laws.

Path of fire!

Flames instantly started to burn on Su Ping's sword, with a ferocity that seemed about to drown everything!

But the next moment—the path of fire was blocked by the path of time. It was frozen in "the next moment." The flames seemed to be burning, but they couldn't hurt Brian at the moment.

Both paths were perfect, but the supreme law was unparalleled!

The path of fire was indeed powerful, but it couldn't exceed time.

The nearby onlookers held their breath and narrowed their eyes. They didn't expect that Su Ping had mastered two perfect paths, or that he could fight evenly with Brian.

Shuai Qianhou was observing with narrowed eyes, hoping to find out whether or not Su Ping had other hidden abilities.

But the next moment, Su Ping simply activated the stone shield.

The ultimate treasure was summoned!

Su Ping didn't invoke the power of his second small world. The stone shield was an already exposed trump card, while the second small world wasn't.

4

The stone shield seemed to have been unfrozen just then; it was releasing a dazzling black and golden light. Strange circuits appeared on its surface too, showing an extraordinary divine power.

'The aura of that power made everybody change their expression.

That was… the aura of the Ascendant State!

It was a subtle feeling.

It was a partially neutralized Ascendant State treasure, which wouldn't violate the ban of Ascendant State power on the central continent.

Brian's eyes glittered upon seeing that Su Ping was indeed holding the ultimate treasure. He no longer held back, as he chose to take out a golden flag.

He raised the flag, and stood like an Ascendant State expert.

"Freeze!"

Brian activated the golden flag and invoked its power.

The golden flag was significantly expanded in the wind, and rolled toward Su Ping's golden shield.

Once Su Ping went to the central continent, he detected that the golden treasure was unsealed and then learned of its abilities. The artifact offered the best protection, but it wasn't really a good weapon for offense.

Just after activating the shield, the golden flag moved forth and tied it up like a huge piece of cloth.

Brian was amused by the result and laughed aloud. "Ha, ha

"All the ultimate treasures were forged by the Federation's saints hired by the Celestial experts. To ensure fairness, every ultimate treasure would only have one Ascendant State ability. Yours must be defense, right?"

Brian was in a great mood. If he grabbed that defensive treasure, counting his golden flag, he would have two ultimate treasures. He would be invincible from then on!

He would truly be invincible if he could find an ultimate treasure with offensive capabilities!

His golden flag could suppress defensive ultimate treasures. It had the power to temporarily restrain an ultimate treasure!

The golden flag could be damaged if the ultimate treasure was too aggressive—

However, no defense treasures could break free from the golden flag. It was like receiving a pillow when he was feeling sleepy!

Brian currently felt he was the son of destiny; he fantasized about that day being his day.

"Huh?"

Both Su Ping and Shuai Qianhou changed their expressions upon seeing such reaction.

Needless to say, they had guessed the golden flag's ability.

It was the first time their ultimate treasure was used, but it had been completely suppressed before revealing its power. It was absolutely useless.

Shuai Qianhou changed his expression; his eyes glittered as he wondered if he should retreat.

He didn't want to. He looked at Brian, and gradually clenched his fists. Maybe he would have to use his real power to win the battle.

It was impossible to count on Su Ping.

'That young senior brother of his was too young anyway!

"You dared to come here with a defensive ultimate treasure? You're from the Golden Star Zone? Where are the others?" Brian was in a great mood; he looked at Su Ping as if he were a delivery boy.

Su Ping withdrew his gaze from the golden flag covering the shield; his eyes glittered. He had planned to defend himself with the ultimate treasure and then devote all his strength to attack until he won in a war of attrition. Unfortunately, it seemed that he would have to rely on himself.

"Your ultimate treasure doesn't look so good."

Su Ping looked at Brian and his mocking eyes, then sneered and said, "Even though you've disabled my ultimate treasure, you don't have any ultimate treasure to use now, either!"

"Who do you think you are? You think I need the ultimate treasure to kill you?"

'There was disdain in Brian's eyes. He was shocked by Su Ping's talent, but that didn't mean anything if he died. The guy was a downright idiot!

Real geniuses never placed themselves in danger; nobody remembered the geniuses who had once amazed the universe to only perish quickly after.

'They were just idiots buried in history!

'Without further ado, Brian asked everybody to attack, "Mitch, Bourne, help me kill him. The rest of you, kill the other brat!"

By brat, he meant Shuai Qianhou.

He had cultivated for far longer than Shuai Qianhou had, so he was certainly qualified to call the other guy a brat..
