SWISH! SWISH! SWISH...
The scene was undeniably terrifying. Thirty-six blazing swords of Sanyang True Fire hung high in the air before piercing through the clouds, descending to assassinate the Elder of Evils.
Even for an expert at the Innate Late Stage Peak like the Elder of Evils, the attack seed utterly unavoidable. He could only stare blankly with a look of horror as the apocalyptic rain of flaming swords bore down on him. In that instant, he felt a terror that seed to tear at his very soul. He could sense that each of the thirty-six fla swords emanated an aura potent enough to claim his life!
As the thirty-six streams of Sword Qi of Sanyang True Fire descended with seemingly no escape, a boundless fear began to rise within him, despite his status, position, and power. It never crossed his mind that a young man who looked to be only twenty-seven or twenty-eight, perhaps the sa age as his own grandson, could possess such horrifying strength.
Damn it, I have to evade this.
Just as the True Fire Sword Qi roared down, seemingly impossible to dodge, the Elder of Evils proved his ttle as an Innate Late Stage Peak expert. At the last critical mont, he frantically produced an old Jade Talisman from his robe and crushed it. A dazzling golden light shield erupted over his head, but it was still battered by the Sword Qi of Sanyang True Fire, shaking violently and nearly shattering.
BOOM!
A deep rumble echoed. The golden light shield released from the old Jade Talisman lasted less than three seconds before it was breached. Following that, a series of terrifying tremors shook the area as scorching, searing flas engulfed the sky, bombarding and burning the entire zone to a fiery red.
Witnessing this, the expressions on the faces of the bystanders froze in disbelief. The scene was simply too shocking, too terrifying.
Although the golden light shield had only lasted for a mont, it had bought the Elder of Evils, an Innate Late Stage Peak expert, a precious chance to escape. The instant the shield was erected, he grit his teeth and contorted his body into a strange posture, sohow managing to force his way out of that hopeless zone.
Even so, he did not escape the fate of being injured.
SWISH!
A blast of Sword Qi from the explosion whizzed past his ear. With a sickening PSSHT, it sliced deep into his shoulder, instantly creating a blur of mangled flesh and spurting blood.
SWISH!
Another stray Sword Qi shot forward, this ti cutting directly into his thigh. In that instant, a large chunk of flesh was ripped away, revealing the stark white bone beneath. An indescribable, agonizing pain surged through the Elder of Evils.
"AAAGH!"
A ghastly scream tore from his throat. His shoulder, thigh, waist... nearly half of his body had been slashed open by the Sanyang True Fire Sword Qi. What was more horrific was that wherever the Sword Qi had passed, the dreadful flas and sword energy continued to invade his body, destroying everything in their path.
Even the formidable physique of an Innate Late Stage Peak expert began to break down. The sight of his blood-drenched, collapsing body sent chills down the onlookers' spines, making their scalps tingle with uncontrollable horror. It was truly a dreadful sight.
A man barely in his late twenties, fighting one against two, had not only avoided defeat but had erged overwhelmingly victorious. He had maid two Innate Late Stage Peak experts, Liang Ruchun and the Elder of Evils! The thought was utterly frightening.
Consequently, the world suddenly fell silent. The atmosphere beca deathly still, broken only by the distinct clatter of Sunx Tianzheng's teeth as he stood nearby, his face pale with horror.
It was understandable. How long had this one-versus-two battle been going on? Not long at all. Yet in that short ti, Chen Fei, a young man of only twenty-seven or twenty-eight, had managed to heavily injure two Innate Late Stage Peak experts, Liang Ruchun and the Elder of Evils. How terrifying was that?
Even the few people present who considered themselves sowhat stronger than Liang Ruchun or the Elder of Evils knew in their hearts that their own strength was limited. They could never achieve what Chen Fei had just done. And what did that imply?
Deadly silence continued to envelop the area.
Even the experts from the Five Great Immortal Sects watching from nearby had their expressions change drastically. They were completely stunned by Chen Fei's move. They knew better than anyone that the Elder of Evils' last attack could sweep away anyone below the Qi Refining Seventh Layer. But now? Not only had Chen Fei blocked it, but he had also completely suppressed it.
This ant that Chen Fei's strength didn't just surpass the Elder of Evils by a large margin. It was even possible he had reached the Qi Refining Seventh Layer, the sa realm as them! Although they were reluctant to admit it, the fact was right before their eyes, leaving them no choice but to believe. But a Qi Refining Seventh Layer expert this young... was that even possible?
"Humph! What audacity! How dare you try to assassinate a disciple of my Purple Fla Palace!?"
Just as everyone was engulfed in shock and horror, a faint, cold snort echoed through the air. A terrifying wave of Demon Qi shot over from a distant place. Instantly, a series of dull cracking sounds were heard as the thirty-six streams of Sanyang True Fire Sword Qi circling in the air were shattered by that horrifying Demon Qi.
"Pfft—humph…" Chen Fei's face flushed, and he let out a stifled grunt.
Not far off, a gray and black figure was seen hurtling toward them, reaching the utterly astonished Sunx Tianzheng in just a few strides. This gray and black figure was none other than the terrifying Qi Refining Eighth Layer expert of the Purple Fla Palace, Langye. He stared coldly at Chen Fei as an extrely terrifying wave of Demon Qi spread out, causing the complexions of everyone present to change. They felt as if they were suffocating.
A Qi Refining Eighth Layer!?
Seeing this, our Young Master Chen's expression changed, his pupils contracting slightly. If it were only the Qi Refining Seventh Layer, he might have been able to put up a fight. However, the Qi Refining Eighth Layer was a height he currently could not hope to reach. It was impossible to contest.
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
Following closely behind Langye, three other powerful figures arrived one after the other. They were the experts from the other major sects of the Five Great Immortal Sects: the Floating Cloud Sect, the Yuue Family of Black Water Ditch, and the Xuu Family of Chengxia Peak. There was a burly man dressed in tattered animal skins; a middle-aged man nad Qingyue with a complexion as smooth as jade; and another tall-nosed, eagle-eyed elder.
Upon their arrival, however, their expressions all changed. The tall-nosed, eagle-eyed elder from the Xuu Family couldn't help but ask, "Brother Langye, what is this!?"
Such a promising young man... Surely Langye doesn't intend to make an enemy of him!?
"What am I doing? Xu Tianying, didn't you see what he did to my Purple Fla Palace disciples?" Langye responded, his tone icy and laced with undisguised murderous intent.
Ordinarily, if such a promising young man had appeared before him, he would have been extrely interested in recruiting him into the Purple Fla Palace. But now, things were different. First, the boy had dared to be so disrespectful as to severely injure two of their sect's disciples. Second, this youngster also seed to have a grudge against Sunx Tianzheng. And considering the latter's talent and value...
In the end, if he had to choose between Chen Fei and Sunx Tianzheng, he would still choose the latter without a mont's hesitation. The talent Sunx Tianzheng possessed was an absolute certainty to reach the legendary Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm! What did that an? In the vast Eagle Gorge Area where their Purple Fla Palace resided, there were no more than fifteen experts of the Foundation Establishnt True Person Realm. That number alone ant everything.
Since he had already decided to choose Sunx Tianzheng and abandon Chen Fei, he also wanted to nip any potential future trouble in the bud. After all, what Chen Fei had just displayed, combined with his apparent age, had given even Langye a genuine shock. He understood that such a hidden danger could not be left to fester.
"What I did? Heh, could it be that you, sir, failed to see them ganging up on and insisting on a fight?" At this, our Young Master Chen began to speak, a cold sneer spreading across his face. He could easily tell the other party was just looking for an excuse. So, this Wolf Head Monster has developed a murderous intent toward , too.
"You insolent brat, who gave you permission to speak? How dare you disrespect , Langye! You're seeking death!" Langye suddenly erupted in a cold roar as his Demon Qi billowed.
BOOM!
As Langye's final word fell, a shaggy, gray-black wolf's paw lashed out at Chen Fei, as swift as lightning. As the paw descended, a terrifying torrent of Demon Qi flowed forth with devastating, unstoppable force.
HISS! Everyone present was instantly stunned, involuntarily gasping in shock. They couldn't believe that the great figure from the Purple Fla Palace would suddenly strike at Chen Fei—and with a lethal blow, at that!
In that mont, our Young Master Chen's expression naturally turned even more frigid.
However, just then, a streak of silver light shot through the space in front of him at incredible speed. It collided violently with the wolf's paw. Sparks flew with the resounding clang of tal, and the force actually repelled the sneak attack from Langye, an expert of the Qi Refining Eighth Layer.
The silver light spun in the air, revealing its form: a palm-sized silver short sword. A powerful aura of a Mid-Grade Magical Artifact emanated from it.
"Langye, your Purple Fla Palace has eaten all the at. You should at least leave so soup for the rest of us, shouldn't you? If you destroy such a fine seedling, my Exquisite Sect will not let this matter rest!"
A cold warning slowly echoed through the air, causing the expression on Langye's face to turn dark and livid.
