The light grew a bit brighter, but a chill seed to pierce through the hearts of all the Heavenly Heart cultivators present.
In just a breath’s ti, two Heavenly Heart cultivators died on the spot, and their deaths were exceedingly tragic. This brutal reality shook everyone present.
Fang Zhongze froze for a mont, then almost hesitantly shouted, "Retreat, quickly retreat!"
"Don’t panic. Those with space-related abilities, release so space secret technique energy behind us as we retreat, quickly!"
Zhou Yan spoke in a cold voice almost at the sa ti.
At this mont, not only the Heavenly Heart cultivators, even Zhou Yan felt the seriousness of the situation was beyond imagination.
Even though he had been invincible in the past, at this mont Zhou Yan felt a chill over his entire body, with a pressure of death oppressing him, making him feel as if the gravity of this world had beco heavier.
Zhou Yan’s hand gripped the Ghostly Light Sword tightly, neither retreating to the back nor being the first to withdraw.
"Do as Zhou Yan says!"
At the sa ti when Zhou Yan finished speaking, Fang Zhongze imdiately called out.
At this mont, three cultivators imdiately unleashed two streams of white text energy and a twisting cube of energy.
The energy happened to land behind the retreating Heavenly Heart cultivator nad ’Chong Yangzhou’, and at that mont, an invisible energy like a tentacle suddenly struck from behind him.
The powerful attack force, carrying a sharp sky-breaking sound, collided with the three streams of space power. At that mont, an explosion seed to occur behind Chong Yangzhou, with a ’bang’ sound, energy scattering wildly.
A force like a tidal wave slamd hard against Chong Yangzhou’s back. He had sensed it and was frantically rushing forward, but the energy struck his back, causing him to let out a miserable cry, like a kite with a broken string, flying forward at a faster speed.
Even though one blow was blocked, a terrible blood hole appeared on Chong Yangzhou’s back, with scarlet blood gushing out, and the bones in his back had broken, revealing sharp bone spikes, shockingly grueso.
"We’re dood; we can’t escape now!"
Fang Zhongze’s face changed drastically, knowing it was impossible to escape now, and he imdiately turned back to organize people to take action.
"Heavenly Heart cultivators with space power strike again imdiately. I rember there are two of you with wind power secret techniques; act together, and coordinate with wood power to stabilize the wind power. I’ll handle this!"
Zhou Yan’s mind imdiately pondered, eventually coming up with the best plan.
As long as there’s a mont of opportunity, he can hit this invisible monster, an aspect in which Zhou Yan holds many advantages.
"Zhou Yan, you’re not even at the First Level of the Sea of Suffering. Are you sure you can do this?"
A Heavenly Heart cultivator nad Hu Yan Zimo expressed doubt about Zhou Yan’s strength and judgnt.
"Do as Zhou Yan says!"
Fang Zhongze demonstrated exceptional decisiveness, shouting imdiately.
In a single hesitation, all the Heavenly Heart cultivators suddenly felt alert, knowing there wasn’t much ti and the opportunities given to everyone were few, so they no longer hesitated.
After all, Zhou Yan was a top genius in the past; perhaps he really has a solution now?
Now, in a situation with no way out, even a sliver of hope is hope, a lifesaving straw that might save lives.
Therefore, after a brief hesitation, cultivators imdiately acted according to Zhou Yan’s plan.
But opportunities are often fleeting.
After all, the three space powers were rely fragntary techniques, and the effect could only cover a very narrow area. When the three space powers were released again, the invisible stream of light clearly penetrated the confinent of the spatial power, suddenly appearing outside its blockade.
At this mont, a surge of wind power imdiately acted on it, rolling the invisible energy back a step. After a step, the initially unconstrained invisible energy body suddenly fell back into the spatial power’s confinent.
Then, the wood power, filled with life energy, suddenly rolled into the confinent, colliding with the invisible energy.
The previously invisible energy imdiately revealed its form—a transparent creature like an octopus with a large mushroom head and eight transparent, worm-like tentacles. Smooth and sharp, these tentacles could stretch several ters in a breath and retract to just over a ter as naturally, truly bizarre.
As the octopus appeared, Zhou Yan’s figure, like an afterimage, suddenly appeared not far in front of the creature.
The octopus’s tentacles, like a stream of light, nearly reached Zhou Yan’s chest in the blink of an eye. Its speed was unavoidable, and the attacking power of the tentacled monster was overwhelming enough to create an instant-kill situation.
At this ti, whether it was Fang Zhongze, Su Yu, Zhao Ya, or Ye Yulin, they were all utterly stunned; the stream of light almost simultaneously declared Zhou Yan’s death sentence, announcing the failure of this counterattack.
The consequences of a failed counterattack were foreseeable.
Yet, at the mont the octopus tentacle monster attacked Zhou Yan’s chest, a glaring purple fla suddenly appeared on his chest. The purple fla was not large, only the size of a bowl, but it just covered the monster’s claw, as if the octopus monster deliberately delivered its killing intent into the purple fla.
"Sizzle—"
At that mont, the octopus monster’s tentacles suddenly thrust out from the purple fla, imdiately igniting rapidly like flowing water. The tentacles shrank back instantly, but the purple fla followed and spread to the octopus monster’s body.
Simultaneously, Zhou Yan propelled himself with his legs, shooting forward like a cannonball. With a leap over nearly ten ters, he left everyone at the scene dumbfounded.
This speed, this reaction and calculation ability, if it were by chance, it would be fine, but if it were truly calculated, it was chilling to the bone.
The purple fla spread along the tentacles to the entire body of the octopus monster, which emitted shrill howls like an evil ghost. Under this howling, it seed that colder air currents were whistling in from afar.
This change caused all the Heavenly Heart cultivators present to change their expressions drastically.
As Zhou Yan shot out, his Ghostly Light Sword unleashed a force of the Ancestral Dragon Secret Technique.
The Ancestral Dragon Secret Technique was the Tao Zhou Yan comprehended when he stepped onto the Sword Burial Ancestor Star for the second ti. This kind of secret technique was far stronger than the average one.
Within this ultimate killing secret technique, there were fragnts containing slaughter secret techniques like Soul Killing and Soul Slash. Having not forgotten past mories, Zhou Yan’s understanding of past events was even deeper.
In the current environnt, his advantage was far beyond what these Heavenly Heart cultivators could match.
But, because the secret techniques he possessed were powerful and nurous, the number of Demonic Heart cultivators he needed to slay far exceeded that of the other Heavenly Heart cultivators.
Zhou Yan understood this very well in his heart, but he did not mind—because within him were chip fragnts and Jade Flying Sword fragnts, which also contained energy. Once refined, they would bring substantial benefits.
Even though past mories were intact, the subsequent mories missing from Emperor Lei Yan were forever lost—Zhou Yan knew this was Emperor Lei Yan fulfilling him, because once he obtained those missing mories of Thunderfla Emperor, Zhou Yan would truly beco Emperor Lei Yan, transforming from an avatar to the main body. At that mont, it would be akin to the main body rging with the avatar.
Emperor Lei Yan’s so-called final Harmonization was also a deceit, ant to slay the eternal mantis and obtain the most perfect slaughter gene, while also fulfilling Zhou Yan.
And the result unfolded just as Emperor Lei Yan had calculated.
This plan, even Lee Ran, Yanyan, and many others, were kept in the dark. They all believed it was a battle between Emperor Lei Yan and the chanical Emperor, but in reality, it was a cooperative plan between Emperor Lei Yan and the chanical Emperor.
...
With one strike, Zhou Yan pierced through the forehead Soul Sea of the octopus monster, shattering its Soul Sea—this was the weak point for all Heavenly Heart cultivators and Demonic Heart cultivators. Once struck here and the Soul Sea or future Heavenly Crystal was destroyed, even an Immortal would die.
Immortality represents eternal life, aning possessing eternal lifespan. But it doesn’t an one can live eternally.
An ordinary person may live for decades, but they could also die young due to natural disasters or man-made calamities in their childhood.
The logic is the sa.
Eternal Life cultivators possess life that lasts eternally, indestructible Heavenly Crystals, but once the Immortal Heavenly Crystal is refined, devoured, or destroyed, they too will perish.
The reality is similarly harsh.
At this mont, Zhou Yan destroyed the Soul Sea of the transparent octopus monster with one strike. The writhing and twisting purple fla tentacles of the octopus monster twitched and were refined into ashes by the purple fla.
On the ground, nothing remained but a puddle of foul-slling white sli.
However, after Zhou Yan slew the octopus monster, a massive amount of Clear Spring energy poured down directly onto the Soul Sea, causing Zhou Yan’s Soul Sea to tremble four tis, and then suddenly a golden border-like trace appeared on his Soul Sea.
At that mont, Zhou Yan felt all seven of his secret technique fragnts beco more condensed, and the cohesion of the purple fla beca more solid.
A flash of golden light flickered on Zhou Yan’s body, quickly extinguishing, but his aura beca noticeably deeper.
"Good, another First Layer Sea of Suffering powerhouse has erged!"
Fang Zhongze sighed in relief, continuous shades of surprise flashing in his eyes, obviously astonished by Zhou Yan’s formidable ans.
Previously, Zhou Yan hadn’t even reached the First Level of the Sea of Suffering Realm, yet he possessed such calculation and reaction abilities, which was indeed an astonishing feat.
"Indeed, unexpected, this is the difference between a genius and an ordinary cultivator. It seems, even with the sa starting point, if you don’t strive and work hard, you still can’t stand at the pinnacle!"
Su Yu mused slightly, then spoke a heartfelt sentint.
After Su Yu spoke, there was a mont of silence at the scene.
"Quick, go, it seems there are several cold winds erging from afar."
Fang Zhongze also felt affected, but his expression suddenly changed, and he imdiately spoke gravely.
Everyone imdiately gathered their thoughts, not daring to relax in the slightest.
