Chapter 248: Chapter 166: 1 Dragon, 1 Elephant! Unrivaled

What a terrifying monster!

BOOM!

Chen Xuan gathered all his strength into one fist and smashed it down upon the hexagram before him. Instantly, two terrifying phantoms—a dragon and an elephant—crashed down and overwhelmed it.

THUD!

The entire island rumbled violently once more.

The area for countless miles around trembled slightly, as if struck by a terrible earthquake. Once again, searing, terrifying ripples of energy swept out in all directions with Chen Xuan at the center.

The searing, terrifying power burned across the ground, layer by layer, causing the earth itself to churn violently and kicking up untold amounts of soil, rock, and deadly shockwaves.

Terrifying flames incinerated everything.

Finally!

The hexagram on the ground, which had been blazing with a bloody light, was completely obliterated by Chen Xuan’s strike, leaving no trace behind.

The blood-red portal in mid-air immediately began to twist and blur, dissipating uncontrollably.

The entity behind the portal seemed to sense the change outside and let out a series of deep, furious roars. Its body slammed desperately against the portal, producing a series of muffled booms.

But with the ritual interrupted, it ultimately failed to break through.

WHOOSH!

The blurry portal in mid-air quickly vanished completely.

A scorching wind blew past, and then there was nothing but silence.

All around, there was nothing but raging flames and dense, pitch-black darkness.

On the ground, Li Wusheng and Qin Wuyan both wore wretched smiles. Their bodies throbbed with stinging pain, and blood trickled from their mouths.

’A monster!’

’This is a fucking monster!’

’He even forcefully erased the ritual to summon a Dark Holy Spirit...’

’If we had known a monster like this was here, we never would have taken the risk to come in.’

[You have destroyed a strange grand summoning formation. You feel a sense of satisfaction. Retribution Points +10,000!]

[Detected that an Evil Cult elder’s spirit has broken. Retribution Points +40,000!]

Two lines of text appeared.

Chen Xuan was exceptionally satisfied.

’And here I thought I wouldn’t be able to shatter it.’

’Turns out it wasn’t so tough after all.’

But suddenly, he raised an eyebrow.

’Wait!’

’Why did it only detect the Evil Cult elder’s spirit breaking? What about the Evil Cult’s Saint Son?’

Chen Xuan suddenly whipped his head around.

The next moment, an extremely powerful spiritual pressure erupted from behind him. With a BOOM, the world roared and seemed to transform in an instant, plunging him into an incredibly bizarre, blood-colored world.

Chen Xuan frowned, his eyes scanning his surroundings. He suddenly realized what was happening, and his expression darkened.

’Divine possession?’

’A technique that the Evil Cult’s Saint Son and Saintess both possess!’

"I almost forgot about that."

Chen Xuan’s tone was cold. "But did you really think a mere illusion like this could affect me?"

WHOOSH!

His Indestructible Fist Intent (Level 2) erupted almost instantly. A colossal phantom of fire, seeming to touch the sky and stand upon the earth, appeared behind him. It reached out its hands and, with a sudden tear, ripped the bizarre, blood-colored world apart.

In an instant, everything returned to normal.

Not far from him, the Evil Cult’s Saint Son, Qin Wuyan, was surging with a powerful aura. His face was densely covered in hideous, twisted blood-red runes, and his eyes stared at Chen Xuan in disbelief.

’He’s fine?’

’He was completely unharmed by my ’Divine Might’?’

Divine Possession! It was an extremely strange technique of the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect. Once used, it would summon a Demon God from the netherworld. However, a human body generally cannot withstand the immense power of a Demon God, so the deity would bestow a limited amount of its power and a powerful Spirit, depending on the strength of the user’s body.

Generally, this Spirit was the most terrifying part.

It could affect all non-divine beings!

’How could he be unaffected?’

"You... what kind of freak of nature are you?"

Qin Wuyan’s face was filled with horror.

BOOM!

Chen Xuan slapped him.

Qin Wuyan’s face twisted. He violently threw up his arms to block, and in the next moment, a peerlessly terrifying wave of energy erupted between them again.

Qin Wuyan knew Chen Xuan would never let him go today. His face contorted, and he attacked like a man with nothing to lose, swinging his arms in a wild barrage of strikes aimed only at Chen Xuan.

"You want me dead? Then you’ll pay the price!"

He let out a hysterical roar.

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

A continuous series of terrifying booms echoed out.

Powerful and dreadful waves of energy swept wildly in all directions.

Chen Xuan’s searing, terrifying body was like an unshakeable mountain.

By the end of the exchange, Qin Wuyan’s face was contorted in pain, and he cried out wretchedly.

Both of his fists were a bloody pulp. The bones in his hands and forearms were shattered—the metacarpals, the ulna, the radius—all of it. His arms, like they were made of straw, seemed to be getting shorter.

On the ground, the Evil Cult elder Li Wusheng, whose muscles and bones had been completely shattered, let out a sudden roar. Relying on the potent effects of the dragon’s blood to recover from his injuries, he once again leaped up from the ground and lunged fearlessly to grab hold of Chen Xuan.

"Saint Son, run! I’ll hold him back—"

BOOM!

Chen Xuan slapped out, and Li Wusheng’s body was instantly torn to pieces.

His words were cut off abruptly.

His head, filled with terror, was sent flying into the distance, wreathed in flames.

"Continue!"

His voice was calm as he looked at Qin Wuyan.

A wretched smile spread across Qin Wuyan’s face, and he finally stopped moving.

How could he not realize it? From the very beginning, Chen Xuan had just been toying with him!

The man was simply using him for practice!

"Chen Xuan, you motherf—"

SQUELCH!

Chen Xuan’s fist shot through the man’s mouth. With a jolt of his arm, he blew his head to pieces.

’You still want to curse me?’

Chen Xuan was quite displeased.

[Retribution Points +10,000!]

[... +30,000!]

Two consecutive lines of text appeared.

Remnant flames still flickered in all directions, not having burned out completely.

But the surrounding darkness, like a bizarre tide, quickly surged back in, carrying a sinister, cold power that rapidly extinguished the flames.
