As the wave of fluctuation passed,
Xu Nian's body erupted in a holy glow.
It lit up the darkness like daylight, and he stood there like a dazzling star.
"This... how is this possible?"
The people around were all showing faces of utter astonishment at the sight.
A Profound Argumentation of the Light Attribute?
Had Xu Nian actually comprehended a fourth Profound Argumentation?
Damn it, if those who spent years without mastering a Profound Argumentation saw this, they'd probably rage themselves to death.
However, fortunately, this Light Attribute Profound Argumentation wasn't too strong; it seemed he had just stepped into the Initial Insight Realm.
If it had been like the Dimension Cutting Profound Argumentation, breaking straight through the threshold of Profound Argumentations,
probably everyone present would feel an urge to commit suicide.
It was just too crushing a blow.
Even though it was only the Initial Insight Realm, everyone understood.
This time, Xiahou Chun was probably in real danger.
After all, Light Attribute Profound Argumentations are the nemesis of all evil methods.
The Profound Argumentation Xu Nian mastered was precisely the Star Purification - the best one in the Light Attribute against Xiahou Chun.
There are three types of Light Attribute Profound Argumentations: Light Enhancement, Star Purification, and Light Annihilation.
What Xu Nian comprehended was the Star Purification in the Intermediate Profound Argumentations, which holds tremendous purifying power against all things evil.
Now, Xiahou Chun, lying in a heap of shattered ice, had a complexion that turned exceedingly gloomy.
The radiance emanating from Xu Nian made him instinctively feel a powerful discomfort.
The Evil Power within his body even began to dissipate and disintegrate under the illumination.
"Damn it, how could this guy have comprehended such a Profound Argumentation," cursed Xiahou Chun inwardly.
Although Xu Nian's Profound Argumentation was merely at the level of Initial Insight, it was already exerting suppression on the Evil Power in his body.
If Xu Nian's comprehension had reached Insight, Xiahou Chun would probably be in agony, screaming in pain.
"How about it, Crown Prince, this was a gift specially prepared for you. Next, I'll let you fully experience the cleansing of Star Purification," Xu Nian said, staring down at Xiahou Chun, whose face was dark to the extreme, with a hint of cold laughter in his eyes.
To deal with Xiahou Chun, he had specifically sought advice from Emperor Ye Tian on methods to suppress Evil Power.
In the end, Emperor Ye Tian had pointed out two directions for him.
One was to comprehend the Fire Attribute's Red Lotus Karma Fire, and the other was the Light Attribute's Star Purification.
Xu Nian ultimately chose to comprehend Star Purification.
After all, the difficulty of comprehending Red Lotus Karma Fire was much greater than Star Purification, and Xu Nian couldn't assure himself that he would achieve Initial Insight in a short time.
Of course, the power of Red Lotus Karma Fire was also much stronger than Star Purification.
Xu Nian flashed, then instantly crossed a distance of a hundred yards.
He appeared right in front of Xiahou Chun.
Xiahou Chun, outraged, hastily swung his Blood Essence Saber at Xu Nian.
A hint of a light smile crossed the corners of Xu Nian's mouth, his holy radiance sparkling.
Xu Nian's Dragon Scale Boxing Gloves instantly covered his hands, the powerful holy vibration enveloping his whole arm.
The Blood Essence Saber struck the back of Xu Nian's hand, producing a sound like that of colliding fine iron.
Although the Blood-colored Dragon Scales were shattered, Xu Nian's skin was unharmed.
Xiahou Chun was immediately shocked, a strong premonition of doom rising in his heart.
He hurriedly tried to retreat.
"Thinking of retreating now? I'm afraid it's already too late, Star-picking Finger."
Xu Nian uttered a cold laugh and then Xiahou Chun saw Xu Nian's finger point at his chest with the speed of lightning.
A strong and unrivaled holy vibration surged through his finger.
Xiahou Chun's chest was instantly pierced by a powerful burst of light, leaving a bloody hole.
The wound felt as if it was being scorched by blazing fire, unbearably painful.
Xu Nian then struck three more fingers in quick succession, each targeting the joints of Xiahou Chun.
Xiahou Chun let out a wretched scream.
The Light Power generated by the Star Purification was rapidly purifying the Evil Power within his body.
This purification was like being burned alive, excruciating beyond belief.
Xiahou Chun fell to his knees before Xu Nian.
Yet Xu Nian's hand was firmly placed on top of his skull.
And on his palm surged the supremely holy Light Power.
Under the erosion of this Light Power.
Xiahou Chun's face twisted immeasurably, in extreme agony.
Black smoke continuously billowed out from the top of his head.
This was the polluted air produced as the Evil Power inside Xiahou Chun was being purified.
"Ahh... Xu Nian... I curse you to a fate worse than death..." Xiahou Chun yelled desperately, his face hideously twisted.
The pain of being burned alive was so intense, he wished for nothing but death.
It was as though all the women he had once tormented were swarming over him, biting and tearing at his flesh bit by bit.
Observers from the distant tower also furrowed their brows one after another.
The shrieking of Xiahou Chun sent shivers down their spines.
The suffering endured by Xiahou Chun was palpable from his screams.
"Hmph, you have harmed so many beings, now you finally taste the pain of being consumed by the Evil Power, Xiahou Chun you committed countless atrocities, today is the day you repay them," Xu Nian snorted coldly, his eyes void of any sympathy.
Who knew how many innocent women had died at the hands of this beast.
Only the agony caused by the backlash of Evil Power could let him truly understand the gravity of his sins.
Originally, Xu Nian did not want to get involved, as the heavens would have dealt with the atrocious deeds of Xiahou Chun on their own.
But Xiahou Chun dared to covet Leng Yanran.
This thoroughly provoked Xu Nian's Reversed Scale.
"Xu Nian, if you kill me, you won't survive either, remember, I am the Crown Prince of the empire," Xiahou Chun threatened furiously.
Xu Nian, however, just sneered.
What of the Crown Prince, who provoked his Reversed Scale.
Even if it were the Emperor of the empire, Xu Nian would still slay him without hesitation.
"Release him, Crown Prince!"
At the same time, a black figure darted out from the darkness, heading straight for Xu Nian to attack.
Xu Nian sensed the breath coming from behind him, but a hint of contempt flashed in his eyes.
The Immortal Sword reappeared in his hand, and without any hesitation, he wielded the Kun Cave Power.
The black figure didn't even get close before Xu Nian split him in half.
The crowd on the tower were visibly shocked upon seeing this.
The man in black was clearly at the Nine-star Saint Level, yet he couldn't withstand a single strike from Xu Nian.
Just how strong is Xu Nian?
"All of you, attack! Kill Xu Nian!" Xiahou Chun bellowed.
From the surrounding darkness, four figures instantly emerged.
These figures were all at the Saint Peak Level.
One of the elders was even at the Peak of Nine-star Body Saint.
Xu Nian, seeing the four Nine-star Saints attacking, a hint of contempt flashed in his eyes.
