The Howling Wind Claw, which he had been relying on to protect his life this entire time, actually slowed down its speed by a little bit. In the end, it formed a star map, causing the other party to feel slightly surprised.
But he was only just surprised. The middle-aged man casually slapped down with his palm, causing the star map to disintegrate into nothingness.
"Even the Divine Emperor came out. It seems that the Valley of Ice will not rest until I've killed him."
Lei Ao wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth, staring coldly at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man said, "Any threat to the family must be removed. "You can make up your mind. I'll leave you with a complete corpse."
"What a joke, if I had the right to self-determination, how would I have the face to meet with the ancestors?" Lei Ao shouted, "Come on, even if I die, I won't let you off."
"You have already ignited your Divine Veins, and I only used 40% of my power. Do you understand the gap between us?"
The middle-aged man shook his head and raised his hand. "The greatest difference between a Martial Saint and a Saint Ruler is that a Saint Ruler can only use the power of law while a Martial Saint can transform the world.
"Don't make yourself sound like a king." Lei Ao sneered in disdain.
"Yes, I'm not at the Martial Saint Realm yet, but I'm at the peak of the Divine Emperor Realm. After burning my Divine Veins, I'm already infinitely close to the Martial Saint Realm.
As he spoke, the aura of the middle-aged man rapidly increased. Just the aura alone was enough to shock Lei Ao.
"Don't you find it laughable to show off your ability to the enemy?"
"This is not showing off. I'm just telling you, self-determination is the best result." The middle-aged man said, "And this is only because we both have Divine Veins. If it were anyone else, I would not even bother to waste my breath on him for so long."
"Indeed, it's nonsense. I feel goosebumps all over my body when I hear that." Lei Ao abruptly took a few steps forward, facing that powerful pressure, throwing out a heavy punch.
"Fight to the death? It's been a long time since I've seen such a tough young man. " The middle-aged man gently pushed it out as a snowflake appeared in his palm.
"Ten Thousand Blade Hills."
In that instant, rays of light shot out from the stars in the sky and shined on the snowflakes, turning them into countless ice crystal blades that rammed into Lei Ao like a mountain.
"Is it the power of the stars again?" Lei Ao realized that he had nowhere to hide, so he did the same thing. He used the star map to meet the blade head on, slowly eroding its power.
In front of the star chart, the beast shield was behind him, one dissipating, one blocking, such a powerful combination still couldn't completely block the Ten Thousand Blades. The remaining force swept through Lei Ao's body, like a torture, it was soon covered in wounds.
Thousands of knife marks were extremely shocking, and one could clearly see bones between the exposed skin and flesh. Blood flowed like a small river, and if it wasn't for the fact that he didn't want to be reincarnated, Lei Ao's corpse would have been long gone.
"I really didn't expect you to have such a treasure." When the middle-aged man saw Lei Ao receive the Ten Thousand Blades Blade, he was extremely surprised. His attention shifted to the Vicious Beast Shield.
"It's only so-so." Lei Ao heaved a sigh of relief. Although the middle-aged man's move was ten times stronger than the Violet Qi Divine Dragon from the Di Clan that day, he was unwilling to admit defeat.
Middle-aged man was not angered: "There is no point in trying to be brave. Do you think you can take the second move?"
"Next up, you should worry about yourself. You won't have the chance to use the second move."
Lei Ao's injuries hadn't recovered in the first place, and were even worse now. But for some reason, the light in his eyes made the middle-aged man feel a bit of pressure.
Deliberately mystifying? Or did he really have a trump card that he didn't use?
The middle-aged man thought for a bit, and once again, a snowflake appeared in his hand, and specks of star power descended from the sky.
"I already said, you won't have another chance." Lei Ao's hands formed a seal in front of his chest, almost channeling all of his power into the star chart, drawing out a pentagram array with a radius of hundreds of feet.
With a slight raise of his right hand, the Star Formation slowly rose into the air, revolving non-stop above the two of them.
"Don't think that you're the only one who knows how to borrow the Power of the Heavens and the Earth. Next, it's my turn to make a move." Lei Ao stuck out his tongue to lick at the blood at the corner of his mouth, his eyes flashing with bloodthirsty excitement.
"If you want to borrow the Power of the Heavens and the Earth, that is only possible if you have reached my level." The middle-aged man shook his head and smiled, "This formation is indeed very mysterious. Although there are five stars carved on it, it doesn't contain even the slightest bit of star power. Do you think it can stop my attack?"
"Foolish fellow, there are many ways to borrow Heaven and Earth powers, but you don't necessarily have to become a Martial Saint. The Di Clan has their own unique mental cultivation method that allows them to communicate with the Heavens and Earth, and I'm talking about Heaven and Earth powers. The true might of the Heavenly Dao has nothing to do with the stars."
Lei Ao's face was filled with disdain. From the beginning to the end, this middle-aged man had never put him in his eyes, which made him very unhappy.
"He's at the peak of the Divine Emperor Realm. I wonder what sort of reaction the Valley of Ice will have if they lose such a powerhouse."
As Lei Ao laughed, the middle-aged man was shocked to discover that the giant star chart hovering above his head had actually disappeared.
This change made him more careful. He was not in a hurry to attack. Instead, he cautiously released his soul consciousness to search for the location of the star map.
Over there, that's...
Lightning pool!
The middle-aged man's eyes were filled with shock. At this moment, the huge star map appeared in the sky above the lightning pool, continuously absorbing the lightning.
Especially for those five stars, at this time, the original trajectory of the star chart was no longer visible. Instead, it was replaced by countless lightning bolts connecting the five stars to form the Heavenly Thunder Constellation.
This Qi was many times stronger than the Ten Thousand Blade Hills in the middle-aged man's hands. Not to mention that he was not a Martial Saint, even if a Martial Saint came, he would still have to give way.
This strange array could actually absorb heavenly lightning. What was he trying to do? Could he control lightning?
The middle-aged man was puzzled. Since ancient times, lightning was the power of the Heavenly Dao. Some heaven-defying experts could temporarily borrow it, but no one had ever been able to control it.
Those who were able to borrow thunder and lightning were basically all demi-humans. They were born with this kind of talent, and in the human world, they didn't seem to have this kind of talent.
At the very least, the middle-aged man had never heard of any type of divine vein capable of controlling thunder and lightning in battle.
Lei Ao had only just broken through to Saint Ruler, and with his strength, it was impossible for him to do so.
According to common sense, the middle-aged man was right, but this strange star chart made him uneasy.
It was true that ordinary people could not do it, but Lei Ao could, because his body was no longer afraid of the lightning in the lightning pool.
"Are you very surprised?" "The danger is yet to come." Lei Ao waved his hand and the star map rotated and appeared above his head. Streams of heavenly lightning continued to strike down.
"How is this possible? you actually are not afraid of the heavenly thunder. " The middle-aged man was once again shocked, Lei Ao who was surrounded by lightning was completely unharmed, and the heat was rising.
"Die." Lei Ao gave a loud shout and controlled the star map to fly towards the middle-aged man.
At this moment, Lei Ao didn't feel so good. He ignored his injuries. The star map absorbed too much thunder and lightning, which made him feel as if he couldn't control himself.
At the end of the day, this was a power that belonged to the Heavenly Dao. Only the Mad Thunder Sable was able to truly command the group of lightning. Lei Ao's strength was far from enough.
Seeing the star atlas flying towards him, the middle-aged man threw out the Ten Thousand Blade Hills with a reflex.
As soon as the two came into contact, under the endless thunder, the Ten Thousand Blade Peak, which Lei Ao had to suffer through, disintegrated into specks of snow, which couldn't even stop the star map in the slightest.
Seeing that the situation wasn't good, this peak Divine Emperor powerhouse decisively chose to escape. With a teleportation, he dodged.
"What's going on?"
Soon, the middle-aged man was horrified to discover that his teleportation was less than a thousand meters away. The star map behind him was whizzing over.
"You didn't think of it, did you? It's true that the star map cannot communicate with the power of the stars, but it does have the power of space. " Lei Ao's lips curved up in a slight smile.
When it came to the control of space and time, no one in the world could surpass Du Xuan, and the star charts Du Xuan created also benefited Lei Ao quite a bit. His insights into space came from the star map.
The star map he drew using all of his power, was within a 10 mile radius from where he was standing. Unless he relied on absolute speed to escape, no one could use Teleportation within this range.
This was not a enchantment, but it was more useful than a enchantment. At this moment, in a 10 mile radius, Lei Ao had grasped absolute control of the space.
Lightning constantly fell down from the star maps. The middle-aged man had the strength of a peak Divine Emperor, but he could only dodge in a miserable manner. The grievances in his heart were indescribable, and he was nearly pinned down by the star maps several times.
