Chapter 166: Chapter 129: Descending from the Sky! Unrivaled
ROAR!!!
In a daze, the crowd seemed to hear a dragon’s cry that shook their very souls and an elephant’s roar that trembled the earth!
A majestic, dark-gold True Qi erupted from Chen Xuan’s fist, manifesting in mid-air as two massive phantoms: a dragon and an elephant! The dragon’s phantom was swift, wreathed in destructive flames; the elephant’s phantom was ponderous, shattering the void as it advanced, carrying the immense force to shatter mountains and split the earth!
The dragon and elephant struck as one, driven by a domineering will to crush everything in their path, as they slammed violently into the brilliant All Heaven Star Sword Array!
"What?!"
"This is bad!"
"Block it!!"
The elders within the Sword Array were the first to bear the brunt of the attack, their faces paling in horror as they felt the terrifying pressure and malevolent will that seemed capable of destroying the heavens and the earth.
The next instant!
BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG...
SPLAT SPLAT SPLAT SPLAT SPLAT...
The sounds—a series of explosions as dense as popping soybeans and as muffled as war drums, mixed with the gruesome noise of tearing flesh and splattering blood—erupted all at once!
The network of Sword Qi from the All Heaven Star Sword Array, which had seemed so magnificent and powerful—enough to strangle a ninth-layer True Qi cultivator—was like a fragile glass spiderweb before Chen Xuan’s brutish fist, a punch containing triple his combat power and the colossal force of the dragon and elephant. The moment they made contact, the network shattered, disintegrated, and was utterly annihilated!
The savage True Qi from the punch, like an invisible ten-thousand-ton hammer, passed through the collapsing Sword Qi without resistance and smashed violently into each elder’s Protective True Qi, and then their very bodies!
"AH—!"
Shrill, despairing screams rose and fell one after another.
BANG!
A Third Layer True Qi elder’s chest exploded into a bloody crater, spewing fragments of organs and a torrent of blood. His body flew backward like a broken sack, his life extinguished before he even hit the ground.
CRACK! SPLURT!
Another elder crossed his arms to block, but the force of the punch shattered them both, mangling half his body into a bloody pulp. He screamed as he was sent smashing into the wall of a side hall in the distance, his fate unknown.
BOOM!
Grand Elder Lei Zhen’s eyes were practically splitting with rage. He frantically channeled his True Qi and held his longsword horizontally before him, only to hear a piercing CLANG! The treasured sword that had accompanied him for many years was bent and chipped by the sheer force of the punch’s shockwave!
The savage power traveled through the sword, and his right arm instantly exploded into a mist of blood. As if struck by lightning, he was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string, blood spraying from his mouth. He crashed heavily onto the stone steps dozens of yards away, half his body reduced to a bloody mess, leaving him with only enough strength to let out a faint groan.
The other figures were sent flying in all directions like broken sacks.
With just a single punch!
The All Heaven Star Sword Array, the very technique that had made the Celestial Sword Sect famous, had crumbled completely!
Of the dozen or so elders who had formed the array, eight were killed on the spot!
The remaining six, including Grand Elder Lei Zhen, were all left with mangled limbs and shattered bodies, critically injured and on the verge of death, having completely lost their ability to fight!
[You have, with tyrannical and overwhelming might, killed eight elders of the Celestial Sword Sect and severely injured six with a single punch. A surge of satisfaction fills your heart. Retribution points +100,000!]
[It has been detected that a large number of Celestial Sword Sect disciples in the square have witnessed this scene. Their faith has collapsed, and they have fallen into extreme fear and despair. Retribution points +40,000!]
Two consecutive lines of text appeared.
All the disciples in the square were aghast, their faces filled with sheer terror.
"The elders..."
"The elders are dead... How could this happen?"
"Gods, the All Heaven Star Sword Array was broken..."
"A Demon King... He’s a Demon King!"
Countless people cried out in terror, stumbling backward, nearly collapsing to the ground in fear.
At the top of the steps, the furious rage on Ling Wanjian’s face had been replaced by a frozen look of horror and disbelief.
’The All Heaven Star Sword Array...’
’Broken in a single move?’
’Over a dozen elders, either dead or crippled?’
’What... What kind of monster is this?!’
Before this, even when Chen Xuan had reached sixth on the Human List, even when he had revealed his cultivation at the eighth layer of True Qi, Ling Wanjian had paid it no mind.
He had believed that with his numerous elders and his own supreme strength, he could easily suppress this brat.
But now, this brutal reality, like a basin of blood mixed with ice shards, had been poured over him, chilling all his confidence and calculations to the bone.
’If a monster like this doesn’t die, the Celestial Sword Sect will be damned to hell for eternity!’
’Even in his dreams, he, Ling Wanjian, would probably be startled awake by the image of this Flame Demon God!’
"You monster, go to hell!"
Ling Wanjian roared, his face contorted. He drew his treasured sword, and with a sudden flash, he charged forward.
He had indeed reached the Half-Step True Essence Realm!
As he charged, a brilliant light ignited across the surface of his body.
That light was completely different from True Qi.
If True Qi was still just ’gas’...
Then the power on his body was already ’liquid’.
Like liquid mercury.
This was the embryonic form of True Essence. True Essence contained the essence of life and the essence of heaven and earth. He had not yet refined the essence of heaven and earth, but his own life essence had already condensed infinitely, forming a powerful, liquid-like energy.
In terms of both resilience and power, this energy was far beyond what True Qi could ever compare to.
Every drop seemed to contain explosive power.
Chen Xuan frowned. He didn’t dodge. He stomped his foot, sending magma flying, and charged forward, immediately unleashing a devastating palm strike.
It was like two meteors of different colors colliding violently.
BOOM!
With a deafening blast, a boundlessly terrifying aura instantly erupted from between the two.
The immense power was channeled into the ground, causing the entire massive square to erupt in a series of violent explosions.
Countless stone slabs were torn from the ground and sent flying everywhere like scraps of paper.
After the single blow, both figures staggered and were swiftly forced back.
But without a doubt, Ling Wanjian was pushed back further.
He was thrown back several hundred meters in an instant.
Chen Xuan was only pushed back a dozen or so meters.
Despite this, Chen Xuan was inwardly shocked.
’The True Essence Realm really is a different beast.’
’Liquid energy certainly is more explosive than gaseous energy.’
He had originally thought he could finish Ling Wanjian in a single move.
’But he’d actually been pushed back?’
Little did he know, Ling Wanjian was even more horrified.
On the surface, it looked like he had only executed a single Swordsmanship technique.
But in reality, he had just secretly used a Secret Technique that could instantly boost his strength, increasing his power by another fifty to one hundred percent.
’That sword strike should have heavily injured, if not killed, his opponent!’
’But now...’
’His opponent wasn’t just unharmed...’
’He’d actually been knocked back several hundred meters and given an internal injury!’
’What the fuck... This is insane!’
