"Dead! They're all dead!"
Across from Lei Ming, the only Supre Elder still alive besides Ye Chuanfeng was trembling from head to toe. His legs shook as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head, leaving his limbs ice-cold.
Previously, under Ye Chuanfeng's leadership, they had been full of confidence. They believed victory was assured and that they could easily slay Su Han to reap huge rewards. But this young man had turned out to be an evil demon in sheep's clothing. When he bared his fangs, no one could withstand his formidable power.
Ten Supre Realm experts had launched a coordinated attack, including standouts like Ye Chuanfeng and the fire-robed elder. Yet, in less than three minutes, nine had fallen. Every one of them died a grueso death, their vitality utterly extinguished with no hope of survival.
How could such an outco not be horrifying? How could it not instill terror?
The Supre Elder felt a wave of relief wash over him. I'm so lucky I was fighting Lei Ming; otherwise, I'd be a corpse by now.
Escape! The single thought consud his mind. Faced with such a terrifying Su Han, his Dao Heart had crumbled. Bereft of the will to fight, he wanted only to flee as far as possible, hoping to never cross paths with Su Han again.
WHOOSH!
His reaction was swift. The space around him fluctuated as he tore open a rift, preparing to dive into the Void and escape.
"Interdiate Grade Divine Power: Thundercloud Storm!"
Lei Ming, though also shocked by Su Han's power, reacted instantly. Seeing the Supre Elder trying to flee, he imdiately executed his Divine Power Technique. The Destruction Thunder Domain surged, transforming into a cluster of thunderclouds that ford a violent storm. It slamd into the Supre Elder, shattering the surrounding space and preventing his escape into the Void.
"I have to escape, or I'm dead!"
This Supre Elder was rely at the First Layer of the Supre Realm, a newly promoted elder whose strength was no match for Lei Ming's to begin with. Now, with no will to fight, he was completely focused on escaping. A fleeing soldier is destined to lose. In his constant attempts to block and flee, Lei Ming repeatedly found openings in his defense. A flurry of strikes sent him crashing to the ground, heavily wounded and gasping for breath.
BAM!
Lei Ming showed no rcy. He transmuted a thunderbolt into a blade and executed the Supre Elder. With that, only Ye Chuanfeng remained.
"Lei Ming! Su Han!"
Ye Chuanfeng had witnessed everything. He gritted his teeth, his eyes blazing with a fury that made him want to tear Su Han and Lei Ming to shreds. He could never have imagined that Su Han and Lei Ming would break free from the trap he had so ticulously set. Now, all his allies had perished, while Su Han and Lei Ming had not only survived but were not even seriously injured. This… this is simply inconceivable!
But Ye Chuanfeng could not retreat, for there was no path of retreat left. If he did not kill Su Han today, he would never know a mont's peace. He had no choice but to keep attacking, hoping that Lady Luck would favor him and grant his wish.
The only good news for Ye Chuanfeng was that he was uninjured and his Spiritual Energy consumption was low. This was because when Su Han controlled the Eight Gates of Life and Death Formation, he had focused on killing the other elders, rely defending against Ye Chuanfeng. Start with the weak and finish with the strong—this was Su Han's tactic. Judging by the results, it was exceedingly successful.
"The Eight Gates are open! This ends in life or death!"
Su Han's pitch-black eyes stared fixedly at Ye Chuanfeng. An icy killing intent erupted from him, causing the surrounding temperature to plumt to a freezing point. An intense urge to kill surged within his chest, not just for himself, but for his master. Therefore, Ye Chuanfeng must die!
BOOM!
Su Han attacked with his full power. Demonic Qi burst forth and his Divine Sense surged, pushing the Eight Gates of Life and Death Formation to its absolute limit.
HUM!
In an instant, the eight Holy Artifacts erupted with a dazzling and resplendent Holy Light. The terrifying Holy Might it unleashed twisted the very heavens and earth. Veins bulged on Su Han's neck and large beads of sweat slid down his forehead. His face was deathly pale, his footing unsteady.
The power of the Eight Gates of Life and Death Formation was comparable to a Low Grade Holy Formation. Pushed further by eight Holy Artifacts, the strain was trendous even for Su Han. Gritting his teeth, he held on as all eight gates opened and the eight Holy Artifacts shot toward Ye Chuanfeng.
"teor King Body!"
Feeling the terrifying power of the Eight Gates of Life and Death Formation, Ye Chuanfeng's expression changed drastically. He knew he had to go all out, or he would not survive this attack. He fully activated his teor King Body. Although it had not reached Great Accomplishnt, it had long since achieved minor accomplishnt, granting him a Phenonon and an Origin Technique.
"Origin Technique: Pillar of Starlight!"
Ye Chuanfeng roared to the heavens, pushing his teor King Body to its limit. In a flash, the night sky darkened as a beam of starlight was drawn from beyond the cosmos. This starlight, bursting forth from so unknown star, was a deep and pure blue. It was brighter than any gemstone, glistening with an indescribable beauty.
Like a pillar, the starlight descended from the sky. It was a hundred ters thick, connecting heaven and earth as it enveloped Ye Chuanfeng, making him appear as majestic and inviolable as a divine Star Lord.
RUMBLE!
The eight Holy Artifacts flew out at once, striking at Ye Chuanfeng from the eight cardinal directions of the formation. Ye Chuanfeng pushed forward with both hands, using the hundred-ter pillar of starlight as his shield.
Ye Chuanfeng was a Supre Realm Ninth Layer expert, and his teor King Body had reached minor accomplishnt. The power of this Origin Technique was naturally imnse; against an ordinary Supre Realm Martial Artist, it would be enough to crush them with ease. Unfortunately for him, he was facing Su Han—a Su Han who possessed eight Holy Artifacts.
The eight Holy Artifacts unleashed their Holy Might in unison, pressing down with such weight that the very air seed to congeal. As they slamd into the hundred-ter pillar of starlight, a deafening explosion of energy ripped through the area, leveling the entire Yaoguang Peak. The shockwave tore through the Seven Stars Sect, and countless disciples were caught in the blast, suffering heavy casualties.
The Black Blade struck like lightning, the Golden Pagoda descended like a mountain, a golden wheel sliced through the air, and the Holy Feather Skybreak tore through the void. With the exception of the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda and the Reincarnation Path Mirror, all the Holy Artifacts were primarily for offense. Launched in concert through the Eight Gates of Life and Death Formation, they quickly overwheld the pillar of starlight. It shattered, crumbling into countless motes of light that rained down from the sky.
PFFT!
With the hundred-ter pillar of starlight destroyed, Ye Chuanfeng suffered a severe backlash. His face turned deathly white, and he coughed up a large mouthful of blood. He was flung backward for several thousand ters, crashing through and destroying two ordinary mountain peaks before slamming into Tianshu Peak. The impact caused the entire mountain to groan and tremble, bringing it to the verge of collapse.
This ti, Ye Chuanfeng was grievously wounded and utterly defeated.
"Kill!"
Su Han, too drained to continue channeling the Eight Gates of Life and Death Formation, recalled the other Holy Artifacts. He gripped only the Black Blade as he charged toward Ye Chuanfeng. At this mont, Ye Chuanfeng was on the brink of death, beaten half-senseless and completely unable to defend himself. Another strike would surely kill him.
"Stop!"
Just then, a voice brimming with grave authority bood out, thick with Holy Might.
