Chapter 355: Chapter 188: Lingxiao City, the Blood Meteor Plan

The moment he finished speaking, Wu Tai’s True Martial Realm Seventh Layer Peak cultivation erupted completely. True Yuan surged like a tempest within him, causing the surrounding space to tremble violently as if battered by a raging flood.

A powerful pressure bore down. With a raise of his hand, he condensed his abyssal True Yuan, then clenched his fingers into a fist and punched down violently. A massive, dark Fist Seal, hundreds of feet wide, shot forth like a meteor from the heavens. It tore through the sky with tyrannical momentum, hurtling toward Du Yao to crush him completely!

“Damn it!!”

‘Even if I die, I will never let someone like you who colludes with Demon Fiends have an easy time!’

Gazing at the massive, dark Fist Seal crushing down from the heavens, a look of grim resolve flashed in Du Yao’s eyes. His fingers flew, forming a series of profound hand seals as if casting some Forbidden Technique. His cultivation suddenly skyrocketed—True Martial Seventh Layer Middle Stage, then True Martial Seventh Layer Late Stage!

BANG! A tyrannical aura suddenly erupted from Du Yao, and the surrounding space shook violently as if struck by a powerful blow.

A glint of sword light flashed in his eyes, sharp as a blade that could pierce the very heavens, shining with an unprecedented edge!

VMMMM!

A sharp sword instantly appeared in his palm, glowing with a faint mystical light. It hummed and vibrated, letting out a clear ring.

“Die!”

With a single wave of his hand, he slashed upward, unleashing a resplendent beam of sword light that tore through the sky. It moved like a True Dragon taking flight, carrying a terrifying Sword Momentum as it surged toward the descending Fist Seal!

BOOM!!

The two supremely powerful attacks collided violently in mid-air, setting off a terrifying explosion. Concentric shockwaves radiated from the point of impact. In their wake, space trembled, trees shattered, and mountain peaks crumbled—the power was utterly astonishing!

“The Spirit Blood Yuan Burst Technique!”

‘He’s ruthless!’

A sharp glint flashed through Wu Tai’s eyes.

The Spirit Blood Yuan Burst Technique. It was a Profound Tier Upper Grade Secret Skill. Once cast, it could temporarily boost one’s Cultivation Realm, but the price was a shortened lifespan and the risk of one’s cultivation foundation being permanently damaged afterward.

‘Cultivation… isn’t its purpose to defy the heavens, to fight for one’s destiny and walk the path to eternal life? Most cultivators would avoid a Technique that shortens their lifespan at all costs!’

‘Yet this man cast such a Forbidden Technique without hesitation.’

‘He traded decades of his life and risked ruining his foundation, all for a fleeting boost in power.’

“Hmph, you think by using the Spirit Blood Yuan Burst Technique, you can escape death?!”

“What a joke!” The corners of Wu Tai’s mouth curled into a smirk, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. He spoke with vicious contempt, “How can a mere ant hope to shake a tree!”

The moment he spoke,

CRACK! It sounded as if some kind of Seal had just shattered.

BOOM!

An aura of True Yuan as deep as the abyssal sea erupted, blasting the surroundings like a monstrous flood.

The aura radiating from Wu Tai was revealed to be at the True Martial Realm Eighth Layer Peak!!

“What!”

Du Yao’s blood-red eyes constricted, his face a mask of utter shock. “True Martial Eighth Layer Peak!!” he cried out in disbelief.

‘I can’t believe he hid an entire layer of his cultivation!’

His heart sank. The gap in their power was immense. Even with the Spirit Blood Yuan Burst Technique, it wasn’t nearly enough to make up the difference!

“Die!!”

While Du Yao was still reeling from shock, Wu Tai struck without hesitation. The abyssal True Yuan around him erupted, casting the sky for thousands of feet in every direction into an inky darkness. Then, he thrust out his palm.

The moment he revealed his true cultivation, Du Yao was already a dead man in his eyes.

In an instant, a thousand-foot-wide, abyssal Palm Seal blotted out the sky. Intricate, profound runes swirled across its surface as if imbued with Divine Power. It crushed through layers of space with the force of a vast ocean, descending upon Du Yao to utterly annihilate him!

WHOOSH!!

Du Yao, of course, would not simply wait for death. Even knowing he was no match for his opponent, he had to give it his all in one last struggle!

The very instant the sky-blotting Palm Seal began its descent, Du Yao unleashed the strongest slash of his life. A beam of sword light like a river of stars cut across the sky, carrying his ultimate Sword Momentum as it hurtled toward the giant palm!

BANG!!

But the moment the massive, star-like beam of sword light touched the sky-covering, abyssal palm, it was shattered as if it were made of glass.

Then, the massive, dark Palm Seal, carrying a vast Divine Power, continued on its path unstoppably, descending to obliterate Du Yao!

Du Yao’s pupils contracted. The enormous, sky-blotting Palm Seal magnified infinitely in his vision, as if an entire world were crashing down upon him—utterly unstoppable!

“Is this… how it ends?” Du Yao muttered. “What a pity…” Then, he slowly closed his blood-red eyes, waiting for death’s embrace.

But in that critical, hair’s-breadth moment,

the world suddenly stopped.

It was as if some extremely profound, unfathomable Dao Rhythm had descended upon the mortal world from beyond the nine heavens.

An immeasurably vast surge of Heaven and Earth Magical Power instantly suppressed all other forces.

In that instant, everything between heaven and earth fell deathly still.

“You were right. How can an ant shake a tree!

What’s more, in my eyes, you don’t even qualify as an ant!!”

A voice laced with Dao Rhythm seemed to resound from above the nine heavens.

The next moment, the stillness shattered.

A vast wave of Divine Power swept out, and the sky-blotting, abyssal palm with its immense momentum was instantly annihilated.

The rolling, pitch-black clouds overhead dissipated in an instant, and sunlight poured down, illuminating the vast world once more!

“Tong… Tongxuan Truth True Monarch!!”

Wu Tai’s pupils suddenly contracted to the size of a needlepoint.

Wu Tai, who had been so arrogant just a moment ago, now began to tremble uncontrollably as a bone-deep fear emanated from the depths of his soul.

‘How can this be!’

‘How could there be a mighty expert of the Tongxuan Realm here!’

‘Wasn’t the Du Family’s ancestor already severely wounded?!’

But before he could even finish the thought,

a figure in a white robe, radiating a hazy, ethereal glow and surrounded by a terrifying Dao Rhythm, suddenly appeared before him. A hand descended upon the crown of his head with the weight of the heavens.

“Soul-Devouring and Essence-Swallowing Technique!!”

In an instant, his Divine Sense flooded into Wu Tai’s mind like a savage beast, unstoppably devouring his memories.

‘Wu Qianlong… collaborating with Demon Fiends… lying in ambush… the Bloodfall Plan… So that’s what this is all about,’ Gu Yun mused to himself.
