Chapter 227: Chapter 1159: Insta-killing the Nine Yang Saint Body

As Chen Xuan’s palm struck down, the crimson-gold Primordial Qi filling half the sky howled as it surged ferociously forward.

Jiang Longyang let out a furious roar and thrust his own palm forward to meet Chen Xuan’s at extreme speed.

"How bold!"

BOOM!

BANG!

An unimaginable explosion rang out, as if a sun, dazzling beyond measure, had detonated on the spot.

The terrifying True Essence bored into the earth, ripping it to shreds. Immense, crisscrossing cracks spiderwebbed across the ground as it shook violently.

It was like a magnitude 8 earthquake.

The scene was terrifying beyond description.

As for Jiang Longyang, who had met the blow, he violently spat out a mouthful of blood. The palm he had thrust forward exploded on impact. With a sickening POP, Chen Xuan had utterly obliterated it, turning it into a mist of blood.

Chen Xuan’s indestructible palm, charged with an unknown amount of power, was like a piece of red-hot divine iron. Its momentum unabated, it slammed viciously into Jiang Longyang’s chest.

The True Qi barrier protecting Jiang Longyang’s chest was torn apart like cheap fabric, making a series of PFFTing sounds. The searing Nine-Yang True Fire inside his body was utterly useless.

Even as he desperately tried to channel the Nine-Yang True Fire, pushing it outward to form a new barrier against Chen Xuan’s supremely powerful palm...

But it was no use.

Against Chen Xuan’s overwhelming, ferocious power, the Nine-Yang True Fire—the very same power that had always given him boundless confidence and immense pride—was as insignificant as a candle flame, utterly ineffective.

Chen Xuan’s Cultivation was a full Third Layer higher than his!

He had countless buffs stacked on top of that!

And he had been building up power the entire way here...

The power of such a palm strike was beyond description.

Even an expert at the Inner Realm would have had difficulty blocking it!

Let alone with his own incomplete Nine-Yang Saintly Body.

BANG!

SQUELCH!

With a deafening CRACK, Chen Xuan’s terrifying palm finally slammed into Jiang Longyang’s chest. The force was so horrific it blew his entire torso apart on the spot, leaving a gaping hole straight through him.

The bones, flesh, and organs inside were all pulverized and sent flying in every direction.

Spitting a torrent of blood, Jiang Longyang let out a wretched scream. His completely naked body was flung like a broken sack for hundreds of meters before crashing into the distant ground with a loud THUD.

The moment he landed, the terrifying Nine-Yang True Fire instantly incinerated the ground in a radius of several dozen meters.

Wreathed in searing, terrifying flames, Chen Xuan seemed to teleport, giving his opponent no chance. Almost at the same instant Jiang Longyang was sent flying, Chen Xuan appeared before him in a flash and brought his foot down.

With a THUD, he stomped on Jiang Longyang’s face.

He drove Jiang Longyang’s entire head into the ground, making the earth tremble once more and sending countless bits of rubble flying.

Jiang Longyang coughed up mouthfuls of blood. Absolute, overwhelming fear flooded his heart, his mind going blank.

’What is happening?’

’Inner Realm? No!’

’This isn’t the Inner Realm, it’s normal True Essence!’

’A True Essence master actually beat me, a Nine-Yang Saintly Body, to the brink of death!’

’This is impossible!’

"Jiang Longyang, I’ll let you die knowing who killed you. I’m Chen Xuan. Weren’t you the one who wanted me dead? A shame you’re destined to fail!"

Chen Xuan’s tone was cold.

The boundless True Essence in his body erupted fiercely.

He gave Jiang Longyang no chance to speak or explain. Terrifying True Essence enveloped the man’s head as Chen Xuan stomped down, intent on shattering his brain.

But just then, a muffled, pained roar sounded as a boundless wave of Spirit suddenly erupted. BOOM! The environment around Chen Xuan abruptly changed, as if he had been plunged into the churning belly of a volcano.

There were scorching flames and terrifying temperatures everywhere. A massive, red, demonic dragon charged toward him.

"Chen Xuan, go to hell!"

Jiang Longyang’s furious roar came from the fire dragon’s mouth.

"GET LOST!!"

Chen Xuan roared furiously.

’A mere spiritual illusion thinks it can affect me?’

Indestructible Fist Intent (Level 2) instantly erupted.

BOOM! An earth-shattering lava troll seemed to rise behind him. It raised a massive hand and, with a loud SMACK, swatted the ferocious, fiery red dragon, causing it to explode on the spot.

The fiery illusion before him shattered instantly.

Like a mirror shattering, the scene returned to what it was before.

"Chen Xuan, spare me! I know I was wrong! I’m a Nine-Yang..."

Jiang Longyang screamed in terror.

Chen Xuan stomped down hard. SQUELCH! Amidst Jiang Longyang’s agonized screams, his head was crushed, sending flesh and blood flying everywhere.

[You rushed over a great distance to kill a Nine-Yang Saintly Body. Your heart swells with satisfaction. Retribution points +30,000!]

A line of text appeared.

Chen Xuan slowly exhaled, raising the air temperature even higher. The surroundings had become a sea of fire, still burning fiercely.

Satisfying!

He had never felt so satisfied.

Although he hadn’t tortured the man, it still put him in a good mood.

As for why he hadn’t tortured him like he did others...

It was because he was worried the man had other trump cards!

He was a Nine-Yang Saintly Body, after all!

It sounded intimidating, and he was definitely different from an ordinary person.

If something unexpected happened, it would be bad.

Chen Xuan wouldn’t risk letting his joy turn to sorrow.

So, a one-shot kill was the best outcome.

"..."

Not far away, a disheveled Dong Jianxue, her clothes scorched in many places, was rushing desperately in this direction. Suddenly, her pupils contracted in terror, and she froze in her tracks.

A burly figure, wreathed in golden flames, stood not far from her. His body still radiated a terrifyingly ferocious aura, and his foot was planted on a stark-naked figure...

That figure...

Who else could it be but her fiancé, Jiang Longyang?

"Jiang... Jiang Longyang..."

Dong Jianxue’s voice trembled as she couldn’t help but cry out.

"Don’t shout. He’s dead," Chen Xuan said lightly, turning to fix his gaze on Dong Jianxue. "Who are you?"

"You’re lying! How could Jiang Longyang die? He’s a Nine-Yang Saintly Body! He can’t die!"

Dong Jianxue screamed like an angry little phoenix.

Chen Xuan glanced over.

’Hm.’

’The Nine-Yang Saintly Body is indeed different from the rest.’

’Even in death, it can still pull a new trick.’

SCHWFFT!

A streak of True Qi flashed past, instantly slicing it flat.

Blood spurted high into the air.

"Now he’s really dead."

Chen Xuan’s tone was nonchalant.

"..."

Dong Jianxue trembled, her eyes quivering as she stared blankly at the naked corpse. She could no longer hold back her tears...

"Who... who are you?"

She looked at Chen Xuan, crying.

"Never mind who I am. Who are you?"

Chen Xuan looked at her.

’If she’s his sister or some other relative, I might as well squeeze her for some retribution points.’

"I... I’m his friend!"

Dong Jianxue puffed out her cheeks and said immediately.

"A friend? I doubt it."

Chen Xuan walked forward, the flames around him blazing. "Would a mere friend cry so sorrowfully?"

"I... I am just his friend. I have no grudge against you. You can’t possibly kill me, can you?"

Dong Jianxue quickly backed away as she spoke.

"Hm, that’s true."

Chen Xuan stopped, looking thoughtful.

’I don’t like killing people I have no quarrel with.’

’I’m not some homicidal maniac, after all.’

"But I don’t believe you’re just his friend,"

Chen Xuan said again.

"It’s true! Even if we were more than friends before, now we’re just friends! Waaa..."

Dong Jianxue collapsed to the ground, crying.

’That bastard died so easily...’

’Just a moment ago, I was standing lookout for him while he was messing around with another woman...’

’Well, look at you now.’

’Let’s see you mess around now.’
