Teleportation is a supernatural ability that, aside from some demonic beasts with spatial talents or top-tier spatial abilities, cannot be directly performed by human cultivators. Only when the nascent soul leaves the body can true teleportation be achieved. Lu Xuan's lightning escape technique only appears to be teleportation; it is actually just a high-speed escape technique pushed to its limit.
However, Ling Xiaofeng's movement just now was definitely a true teleportation. This was a divine power that the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light had never displayed before the world. Within the range of this divine power, the caster could actually teleport physically.
However, Lu Xuan showed no sign of hesitation. Instead, he forcefully used his lightning escape technique and followed. The two chased each other several times within the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light. A fierce glint flashed across Ling Xiaofeng's face. Being forced to this extent by a junior made him feel extremely humiliated. Although he didn't know what Lu Xuan was relying on, he had already decided to use all his might to directly kill Lu Xuan.
Five small hexagonal shields suddenly assembled in mid-air. The power of the five elements condensed on the shields, then merged into a special, unified power. This was also the Primordial Magnetic Divine Light. However, it felt more dangerous than the surrounding Primordial Magnetic Divine Light.
The combined shields shone a beam of five-colored light in mid-air. At the same time, the surrounding magnetic divine light suddenly compressed, binding Lu Xuan within it.
This seemed to be some kind of advanced divine power of the Primordial Magnetic Divine Light. Lu Xuan could even sense that Ling Xiaofeng's aura became unstable the moment this move was used.
It carried enough power to severely injure a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, or even to directly annihilate one. Five-colored divine light descended from the sky, enveloping Lu Xuan within it.
But at this moment, Lu Xuan, who was enveloped in light, suddenly let out a cold snort.
"break!!!!!"
Ling Xiaofeng felt a sharp pain in his brain. His expression changed drastically, his energy became chaotic, and he almost lost control of the Five-Colored Divine Light. Although he eventually regained his balance, that momentary lapse in concentration had already led to serious consequences.
Lu Xuan previously used the Divine Shock Thrust. That's right, the same Divine Shock Thrust used by the future Old Demon Han. Having undergone several reincarnations and cultivated various Daoist meditation techniques, his divine soul was incredibly powerful. It might even be stronger than Old Demon Han's divine soul at this stage, after he later practiced the Great Evolution Technique. Therefore, he could naturally use a skill like the Divine Shock Thrust.
Moreover, he felt the name of this move suited his aesthetic perfectly. So he used it without hesitation. As for what name Han Laomo would use in the future, he couldn't care less.
Ling Xiaofeng immediately sensed something was wrong and used his teleportation ability again, disappearing from his original spot. But this time, just as he regained his composure, he found a fist coming straight at him.
A bronze mirror suddenly appeared, blocking Lu Xuan's fist. Ling Xiaofeng, with his extremely fast combat experience, reacted quickly. But the next second, a crisp shattering sound rang out.
That fist actually shattered the bronze mirror magic artifact and struck his protective divine light directly. Ling Xiaofeng felt a rapid vibration, carrying a surge of external spiritual energy, rushing into his body.
He instinctively tried to use his teleportation ability, but the next second he was horrified to discover that the tremor had spread throughout his entire body, shattering the spiritual energy he had gathered.

Chapter 500 A Powerful Alliance
The Shockwave Demon Art—at least in this world, this kind of technique has existed for a long time. It's a close-combat supernatural power that has been passed down in the demon realm.
However, for Lu Xuan, who knew the principle behind it, replicating this supernatural power was the simplest thing in the world. In fact, the special repelling martial art he learned in the mortal world was an alternative application of this technique.
However, Lu Xuan didn't have true qi at that time, so he could only rely on his physical body and the vibration of his weapon to simulate this effect. By using the high-speed vibration of his weapon, he could deflect his opponent's weapon at the moment of collision.
Now, it's a combination of physical body and internal spiritual energy, with the two working together to create a high-speed resonance. This allows the vibrations to be instantly transmitted to the other person, whether it's contact at the spiritual or physical level.
Amplifying this vibration within the opponent's body can directly shatter their concentrated spiritual energy, preventing them from using any supernatural abilities that rely on spiritual power.
The terrifying aspect of this Shockwave Demonic Art is that it is almost a natural counter to human cultivators. Relying on their physical strength, once demons break through a human cultivator's defenses and land a punch, the battle is essentially over.
In the original novel, when the ancient demon of Fallen Demon Valley first appeared, he slaughtered everyone with his Shocking Wave Demon Art. Early and even mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators were ruthlessly cut down in his presence. If it weren't for Han Laomo's extraordinary abilities, he would have almost certainly died in that battle.
Having landed a successful punch, Lu Xuan didn't pause for a moment. He threw a second punch.
The fight between the two top cultivators was transformed into a hand-to-hand combat scene by Lu Xuan. However, this was far more shocking than ordinary hand-to-hand combat. After all, Lu Xuan was using his bare hands to defeat Ling Xiaofeng, the number one cultivator in the Chaotic Star Sea.
Invisible ripples spread out from Ling Xiaofeng's physical body. The surrounding Yuan Magnetic Divine Light also began to become unstable due to this vibration.
Lu Xuan's true trump card was never the Evil-Repelling Divine Thunder or the True Fire of the Sun. It was his physical body.
From the very beginning of his transmigration, he discovered that his physical body was much stronger than before. However, at that time, he couldn't sense anything deeper; he simply relied on his physical strength to dominate the battlefield. Because initially, his physical strength was actually limited.
However, as Lu Xuan's overall cultivation level gradually increased, he discovered that his physical body was also breaking through its limits time and time again. He hadn't actually practiced any body-refining techniques, yet his physical strength continued to evolve. By the time he advanced to the mid-Nascent Soul stage, his physical strength was practically monstrous.
However, in his previous battles, he had almost never encountered an opponent who could force him to use his physical body. Ling Xiaofeng was the first. As the overlord who ruled the Star Sea, Lu Xuan had given him ample respect.
Ling Xiaofeng likely possessed more than one protective magic treasure. Even though he couldn't gather spiritual power himself, multiple rays of spiritual light still appeared, protecting his body. Many refined magic treasures have this kind of active protective effect. It wasn't surprising to Lu Xuan that a figure as important as Ling Xiaofeng possessed such magic treasures.
However, no matter how many protective magic treasures a person possessed, they were utterly ineffective against Lu Xuan's fists. After just three or five punches, their protective aura would dissipate. Lu Xuan himself was an incomparably powerful offensive magic treasure. Any defensive magic treasure became as fragile as an eggshell before him.
Within a few breaths, at least seven defensive magical artifacts had their spiritual light shattered by Lu Xuan. At this moment, a look of terror appeared on Ling Xiaofeng's face. He had never encountered such an opponent before. With just his fists, he could render him utterly powerless!
Even if that barbarian at sea had mastered the Heavenly Demon Art to its peak, he could never achieve such an effect. The key point is that, unable to gather spiritual energy, he has no other recourse but to wait for death.
Of course, there was also the intervention of his wife, Wen Qing. However, regardless of the outcome, Ling Xiaofeng was well aware that Xinggong's face had been completely humiliated today.
To his surprise, Lu Xuan's fist seemed to be weakening. He suddenly snapped out of his daze and looked up to see Lu Xuan's meaningful gaze. Ling Xiaofeng instantly understood. He took a deep breath, and the five-colored shield above his head emitted another beam of five-colored light, forcing Lu Xuan back.
This time, Lu Xuan did not charge forward again, nor did Ling Xiaofeng press his advantage. The two remained locked in a distant standoff in mid-air.
This left the surrounding onlookers somewhat puzzled.
"The Palace Master is indeed a cut above. Sect Master Lu ultimately couldn't hold out." Some thought Ling Xiaofeng had broken Lu Xuan's unknown technique. However, some highly skilled rogue cultivators noticed something amiss. But even if they did, no one would say it out loud in this setting.
The emergence of a powerful cultivator capable of rivaling the Star Palace Master in the Chaotic Star Sea is already astonishing enough. The crucial point is that this cultivator is only at the mid-Nascent Soul stage. One can only imagine how terrifying he will be once he reaches the late-Nascent Soul stage.
Even more terrifying is that this suddenly rising great cultivator has most likely reached some kind of agreement with the Star Palace. With such a powerful alliance, many people have already imagined the tragic end of the Six Paths Demon.
Lu Xuan didn't intend to kill Ling Xiaofeng here. Firstly, there was still Wen Qing, who also used the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light, who hadn't yet made a move. Although her skill level was only so-so, and even if she did, she might not be able to stop Lu Xuan. However, for Lu Xuan, there was no need to kill Ling Xiaofeng directly.
After all, killing Ling Xiaofeng would weaken the Star Palace's reputation, and the pressure from the Demonic Path would fall on his shoulders. Lu Xuan also disliked the Demonic Path, but the Demonic Path of the Chaotic Star Sea had already been designated by Hongyu as a testing ground. He didn't plan to interfere directly for the time being. Therefore, it was better to let the Star Palace take the lead while he developed slowly in the rear.
Although the human realm doesn't seem to have high combat strength, besides the hidden Nascent Soul cultivators, there are also sealed ancient demons. There's more than one entity that could threaten Lu Xuan. He decided to play it safe for a while longer. He'd wait until he reached the late Nascent Soul stage, or even the Nascent Soul stage, before making a move.
"Palace Master Ling's Taoist arts are profound, I admire them greatly. How about we have a battle today, ending in a draw? What do you say, Palace Master Ling?"
“My cultivation is a notch above yours, and I’ve already lost since I couldn’t defeat you. Sect Master Lu’s Daoist techniques are truly impressive.” Ling Xiaofeng was straightforward, giving Lu Xuan plenty of face.
"The Primordial Magnetic Divine Light is the most peculiar divine power I have ever seen. If Palace Master Ling can master it, the outcome of today's battle is still uncertain. I think it would be better if our Hidden Immortal Sect cooperated with the Star Palace?"
The surrounding cultivators who were watching the drama unfold immediately stirred with excitement. Here it comes! These two behemoths are finally going to cooperate! This is great; the landscape of the Star Sea is likely about to change drastically.
