Chapter 1149 - 1148: Now, Are You Convinced?

A single pill not only restored Pei Yuqian's injuries, it also sent his aura surging to the absolute limit. What kind of terrifying pill was this?

Originally.

During the Profound Ice Platform Conference, there were still quite a few who doubted Ye Qingchen's methods. But after witnessing this scene, those Celestial Immortals who had rushed here, looking at Pei Yuqian—like the Fire God reborn, wrathful flames surging around him—no longer held the slightest trace of suspicion in their hearts.

Xu Mingcheng's expression changed drastically; with a sharp "pa" he staggered back several steps, unable to believe it. Yet almost immediately, his face hardened, and he said icily: "It's just a single pill. I refuse to believe you can overturn heaven and earth!"

"Is that so? So you're still unconvinced!"

Ye Qingchen gave a faint smile.

"Everyone, don't be afraid. Even with this Zhurong Pill, he only has the strength of a newly advanced Celestial Immortal! There's nothing to fear—attack together, don't give him a chance to make a move!"

At this moment.

Seeing Ci Ming and Li Suling both slightly hesitant, Shen Wuji suddenly bellowed. His body shuddered, and boundless Demonic Qi erupted like a volcano, rolling out to sweep everything. The surging demonic flames soared to the sky, almost blotting out sun and moon, shrouding this stretch of heaven and earth above the Profound Ice Platform!

The originally clear sky turned into night in an instant.

The billowing demonic flames converged, layer upon layer encircling Shen Wuji's body, and in the blink of an eye they formed a Demon God with a hideous face, cyan skin and fanged jaws, its body bristling with spikes, clad in black armor!

In the void, the roar of Divine Demons resounded.

"Die for me!"

With that furious roar, they saw Shen Wuji already charging madly, wrapped in surging demonic flames. That claw like a god-demon's hand swept down to cover the sky and earth; its terrifying might was several times more dreadful than before!

Like a talon reaching out from the depths of the abyss!

"What a terrifying claw!"

Everyone present changed color in horror.

Of those present, more than seventy percent of the Celestial Immortals would be unable to withstand this single claw.

"Can he block it?"

Pei Chu clenched his fists, his eyes filled with worry.

"He's dead for sure!" Xu Mingcheng's face was full of a cold smile as he swept a glance across Ye Qingchen. "Relying on a single pill to try and overturn heaven and earth—this is sheer delusion! Once he dies, it will be your turn next!"

A hint of mocking smile appeared on Xu Mingcheng's face, but that smile had only just surfaced when it froze completely.

Under everyone's incredulous gaze.

They saw Pei Yuqian seem to have grown familiar with the power erupting in his body. He suddenly raised his head and directly thrust out a palm.

Compared to the gigantic Demon God behind Shen Wuji, Pei Yuqian was like an ant beneath a colossal beast's feet, as if he would be crushed to powder in an instant, utterly unqualified to be mentioned in the same breath.

Yet the result was—

As that palm struck, Shen Wuji's body trembled; the hand of that enormous Demon God manifestation, vast enough to prop open heaven and earth, exploded with a bang, followed immediately by its arm, shoulder, torso, limbs, and head!

As if its body had been packed with explosives, it shattered inch by inch.

And Shen Wuji, included within that Demon God manifestation, under the sweep of this force was the very first to be ground into dust, completely annihilated, body and soul both extinguished!

Silence!

The Profound Ice Platform fell into deathly stillness.

This great fiend from the Western Wilderness had actually been wiped out without even a scrap of bone left!

At this moment.

Pei Yuqian's second strike already swept out like thunder. They saw him suddenly close his hand; the flames around him rapidly converged, and in an instant formed a massive flaming long blade that hacked directly toward Li Suling!

The blade swept through the void, bringing with it a Heaven-shocking edge, tearing apart even the demonic flames that shrouded the heavens above.

This blade was incredibly fast; in nearly the blink of an eye it was wrapped in surging wrathful flame, slashing right up to Li Suling! Facing such a brutal blow, Li Suling had nowhere to hide, nowhere to dodge—he could only grit his teeth and meet it head on.

"Roar!"

Li Suling let out a hoarse roar. His withered, stick-like body erupted with crackling pops as his clothing was torn apart. Under everyone's shocked gaze, his whole body suddenly swelled crazily like a balloon.

In the span of a breath, he transformed into a giant three-zhang-tall figure, charging forward wildly, his stomping feet striking the ground with explosive booms, like an Ancient Fierce Beast striding forth, crashing toward Pei Yuqian in a savage charge!

He was confident in his Body Refinement physique, adamantine and unbreakable; to block this one blade of the opponent's should be no hard task.

Yet the result was—

The firelight flashed past, streaking across the void, cutting straight through Li Suling's body. His physique, which could rival that of a demon beast, under this blade was like knife entering butter, cleaved cleanly at the waist, bisected on the spot.

Li Suling's eyes bulged wide, filled with shock, as if even in death he could not believe it.

"Not good!"

Seeing his comrades, who just a moment ago were still aggressive and domineering, already dead or crippled, leaving only himself in the space of an instant, Ci Ming's pupils shrank to the extreme. Especially when the other party's gaze fell upon him, all the hair on his body stood on end, like being fixed upon by a ferocious beast!

"Not good!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Ci Ming's figure twisted, and with virtually no pause he retreated backward at extreme speed, frantically fleeing across the Profound Ice Platform!

"Hmph!"

But the next instant, Pei Yuqian stepped forth, already sweeping along fierce firelight, appearing directly before Ci Ming! His large hand grabbed out savagely, carrying flames that crushed down.

"Die for me!"

Ci Ming's pupils constricted; his gaze turned cold as the dagger in his hand spun. The dagger drew forth a streak of light seemingly alien to this world, like a venomous serpent lurking in the shadows, lunging straight at Pei Yuqian to tear him apart!

As this dagger strike blasted out, Ci Ming's originally powerful aura suddenly weakened in that instant; even his face aged at extreme speed! Yet his eyes remained steely:

"I refuse to believe that half my remaining lifespan won't be enough to trade for your life!"

"Clang!"

However—

Just as this thought arose, a crisp sound rang out.

They saw—

That dagger-light which seemed not to belong to this world struck Pei Yuqian's palm, and with a sharp crack it snapped, dissolving into countless flecks of light that quietly scattered into the void.

"How is this possible?"

Ci Ming's pupils shrank, but before he could react, that enormous flaming hand had already descended like a sky collapsing, dropping straight down over his head.

"Bang!"

Like a watermelon being squeezed to pulp, Ci Ming's head was crushed on the spot by Pei Yuqian.

Silence!

On the Profound Ice Platform, there was dead silence; everyone stared with eyes wide open.

From Pei Yuqian's counterattack until now, it had all happened in just the span of a lightning flash. Yet what occurred in that instant was something no one had anticipated: Shen Wuji and his two companions, who a moment ago were still overwhelming in momentum and arrogant enough to swallow the heavens, had all perished on the Profound Ice Platform.

Under gazes that were shocked, fearful, or utterly disbelieving, Ye Qingchen slowly lifted his head and bared his teeth in a grin:

"So, are you convinced now?"

As his words fell.

Xu Mingcheng's face was drained of blood, deathly pale.
