Chapter 1431: Stone of Counteracting Fate

Everyone was gobsmacked. They glanced at Fang Yi\'s glowing body. What the stone of counteracting fate released wasn\'t radiant light, but rather formless energy—not a curse, and instead more like an extreme sense of willpower. It felt as though there were countless figures surrounding Fang Yi, roaring and screaming in defiance.

The stone of counteracting fate was tetrahedral in shape and significantly smaller than the stone of starlit fate that Xing Yu had displayed.

Many of the spectators eyed the treasure greedily.

Sun Xiaowu asked, "Just what is this stone?"

"Allegedly, it\'s a treasure on par with the stone of starlit fate. During the era of the Stargods\' dominance, a new star was born. Some called it a wish made manifest, that this was karma for the Stargods\' tyranny; others considered it fate. This stone came from that star.

"A strong cultivator happened across the stone of counteracting fate and quickly ascended to strength, slaying stronger opponents one after another until that cultivator finally fought against the Stargods\' Starlit Legend, defeating the legend and ending the Stargods\' long reign.

"That stone was what ultimately led to the downfall of the Stargods.

Allegedly, being in possession of that stone will be enough to recapitulate the legend of counteracting fate.

Unfortunately, just like a stone of starlit fate, a stone of counteracting fate will be forever attuned to a cultivator and would be useless even if seized."

Someone suddenly cried out, "No, that\'s not the complete stone of counteracting fate!

Don\'t you remember the conclusion of that fight? The Starlit Legend perished, as did his opponent. Even the stone of counteracting fate was shattered into pieces.

Would this shard alone allow that cultivator to overcome his opponent?"

"Xing Yu\'s not an invincible Starlit Legend yet. He\'s only managed to attune to one such stone."

Another spectator\'s eyes gleamed. "To think that we would see a fight between two cultivators of legend—and in the qualifiers, at that! Any amount of mental trauma would be worth being present for this fight."

Fang Yi had undergone a dramatic transformation. His wounds healed, his bones knitted back together, and his body glowed with radiant light.

Fang Yi\'s eyes were focused, his muscles bunched up, his flesh and blood glimmering with strength. It was as though his body was composed of a series of furnaces that provided him with neverending energy.

Fang Yi\'s status of being was quickly being elevated by the stone of counteracting fate. What energy he had consumed was immediately replenished, and wheels of time flared into existence to his back. Five appeared out of nowhere.

The spectators gasped. As expected of a stone of legend.

Xing Yu raised his head to the skies and laughed. "Incredible. I knew you had to be someone extraordinary. This is a fated fight, and you my fated opponent. We were destined to meet."

Fang Yi\'s eyes flashed like lightning. Although his transformation wasn\'t as extreme as Xing Yu\'s, the wheels of time to his back shone with blinding light. Wind, storm, and time revolved around him in a manner brighter than even the sun. With five wheels of time, he looked like a god descending from the heavens.

Xing Yu, however, seemed perfectly unruffled by Fang Yi\'s transformation. His eyes revealed his confidence and pride. "I will reforge the reputation of a Starlit Legend by defeating you once and for all."

It felt as though a thousand furnaces burned within his body, lighting him up with starfire. The glow emanating from him eclipsed that from Fang Yi.

The sky itself was dyed in two different shades of light.

Xing Yu formed a seal with his hands. A gigantic furnace manifested before him. He added some of his vital energy into the furnace, along with the two sharp blades. Divine fire blazed as the arena shook. The blades shone with starfire.

"[Tiger\'s Howl, Dragon\'s Bellow]!"

Fang Yi\'s spear took on the aspect of a dragon of the winds and a storm tiger as he charged forward.

Wind and storm roared around him, resonating with his genetic energy and transforming into a chaotic dragon of wind and a chaotic tiger of lightning. His spear shattered Xing Yu\'s two blades.

The Starlit Horns! Xing Yu\'s Starlit Horns shone with starlight.

A bell tolled. Another wheel of time formed behind Fang Yi as he thrust his spear forward. With six wheels of time supporting him, it was as though six Fang Yis had simultaneously launched an attack. The spear struck the starlight.

As Xing Yu\'s Starlit Horns activated, countless blades of light shot forth like radiant stars.

"[Shadow and Light]!" Fang Yi morphed into countless clones, each of which moved independently and shattered the blades of light.

"Is this the full might of the stone of counteracting fate? It isn\'t much!"

Xing Yu snorted. Metallic clangs rang out from his body as starfire blazed, transforming into weapons, bells, swords, cauldrons, pagodas—all sent flying forward, hundreds, then thousands, then millions of weapons.

"[Heaven\'s Judgment]!"

The combination of wind and lightning generated a frightening force that seemed to be able to penetrate space. Fang Yi\'s spear emitted chaotic energy as the three disparate sources of energy combined with his temporal force.

Void wind and void lightning merged together and generated a frightening force that seemed to be able to penetrate space.

The spear, with Fang Yi in tow, shot into the rain of weapons that threatened to crush Fang Yi in a flood. Despite the momentum of his spear, Fang Yi felt tremendous resistance.

After all, what he possessed was only an incomplete fragment of the stone of counteracting fate, and there would be a marked difference between him and Xing Yu, who had a complete stone of starlit fate. He would only regenerate once in a fight, and only have one chance at overcoming the powers of fate.

Xing Yu smirked. "Don\'t struggle futilely. You might not know this, but the Starlit Legend was the victor of that legendary fight."

Fang Yi snorted. "And so what?"
