Chapter 34: Flattening the Black Mountain!

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

“A disciple of the Empyrean Sword Sect has come to destroy the Black Mountain bandits.”

An ethereal figure that looked like an immortal slowly appeared.

It was Shen Ran, who had cleared the Black Mountain bandits’ base camp.

As Shen Ran appeared, the second-in-command of the robbers realized that the Black Mountain was filled with an extremely strong smell of blood.

“Damn it! It’s actually someone from the Empyrean Sword Sect! Didn’t Master say that the Empyrean Sword Sect wouldn’t care about trivial matters like robberies?”

The second-in-command’s expression changed drastically.

Although this group of Black Mountain bandits usually committed all kinds of crimes, they also knew what kind of people they could afford to offend and what kind of forces they could not afford to offend.

He immediately took out a whistle carved in the shape of a black eagle, put it to his mouth, and blew hard.

“Chant!!!”

An extremely loud eagle cry immediately resounded throughout the entire Black Mountain.

This was a signal that an extremely urgent situation had occurred.

When all the surviving robbers heard this cry, they immediately stopped what they were doing and rushed over to the second-in-command as quickly as possible.

He listened to the dense, hurried footsteps around him.

Shen Ran smiled calmly. “Are you going to call all the robbers over? You really saved me a lot of effort. As a thank you, I’ll let you die quickly.”

When the second-in-command heard this, he immediately frowned and was furious. “How dare you! This is not a place for you to be impudent!”

As he spoke, his first level Divine Sea strength erupted.

His exaggerated muscles that were as knotted as the roots of an old tree kept squirming and expanding.

The 1.85-meter-tall second-in-command of the robbers expanded again and again. In the blink of an eye, he turned into a huge beast that was three meters tall.

His skin turned red, and the dense spiderweb of blood vessels on his body protruded and throbbed.

His entire body seemed to have transformed into a human-shaped furnace, and the infinite heat surged out of his body.

Just by looking at it, one could feel the explosive power from it.

“Thud!”

At this moment, Shen Ran, who was standing opposite the second-in-command of the robbers, moved!

The second-in-command, who was originally dozens of feet away from Shen Ran, felt his vision go blurred.

Shen Ran suddenly flashed in front of him.

Shen Ran clenched his fist and raised his arm high.

All his muscles tensed and expanded, and all his strength gathered on his arm.

“I told you, I’ll let you die a quick death!” Shen Ran looked at the second-in-command with a cold gaze.

It was like looking at another dead person.

“You have a death wish!”

Hearing this, the second-in-command of the robbers was furious. He raised his fist high and was about to smash it down.

At that moment.

Shen Ran raised his fist and punched forward.

In the eyes of the second-in-command of the robbers, this punch was very slow. He could see the trajectory of the punch clearly.

There was no commotion either.

However, for some unknown reason, he could not move his body at all.

All he could do was to stare helplessly as the golden fist inched closer to his chest.

He watched helplessly as his chest caved in bit by bit under the push of Shen Ran’s fist.

“Crack!”

“Crack!”

“Crack!”

The sound of a sternum breaking echoed clearly and distinctly in the second-in-command’s ears.

The second-in-command of the robbers did not feel any pain. He only wondered when his body had become so fragile.

He could not even withstand a punch.

The breastbone defense finally broke.

Shen Ran’s fist pressed against the second-in-command’s lungs.

Not even his sternum could defend him, let alone his soft lungs.

His lungs burst.

Shen Ran’s fist finally hit the second-in-command’s spine from the inside out.

Piece by piece, his spine snapped under the punch.

It penetrated his back and came out of his body.

“I’m dead… .”

Seeing that the ground was getting further and further away from him, his body exploded into pieces in front of Shen Ran and blood splattered everywhere.

The head of the bandit’s second-in-command, flying through the air, thought with the last remnants of his consciousness.

“Bang!”

The head crashed to the ground.

The second-in-command of the Black Mountain Bandits was dead!

At this moment, the robbers who had just heard the whistle for assembling, arrived one after another.

“It’s the second-in-command!”

“The second-in-command was actually killed by him!”

Among all the robbers, the second-in-command, whose strength was second only to the first-in-command, was beheaded.

All the robbers were horrified.

Other than the two leaders, none of them had reached the ninth level of the Qi Refinement Realm.

Faced with such a scene, they were scared out of their wits and fled in all directions.

Shen Ran saw this.

Without any hesitation, he rushed into the crowd and started a massacre.

With every punch, a robber’s head or chest was blasted open.

Ever since Shen Ran came up the mountain, he had only used his physical strength.

A scum like the Black Mountain Bandit was not worthy of him using his cultivation and the Divine Sword Emperor’s Heart.

In just a few seconds, more than half of the robbers present were killed by Shen Ran.

The remaining people had also given up on the idea of escaping. They knelt on the ground and kowtowed to him, begging for mercy.

“Who dares to be impudent in my Black Mountain!

Why don’t you stop!”

At this moment, an angry shout resounded throughout the venue.

The robbers, who were in a state of panic, were overjoyed.

“It’s the Chief!”

“Chief is here! This kid is dead!”

“Chief, avenge our brothers!”
