Huff... Huff...
As Lu Tianrun unleashed his ridian Qi, and spurred the force of so powerful ridian Techniques, the sky above was already adorned with an illusory mountain peak tens of ters tall.
Moreover, as Lu Tianrun's hand seals shifted, the giant peak moved automatically without wind, slowly rotating and seemingly devouring a certain power from above, aiming to greatly enhance its might.
"This... This is..."
Upon witnessing this, Liu Hanyi and others nearby couldn't help but show a hint of fear, as they all sensed that aura which seed tangible but couldn't truly be grasped.
"It's Sky Power!"
Xue Ningxiang was the quickest to react, sensing the power rushing towards the ridian Qi Mountain, her tone sowhat dry, as she already understood what it ant.
"Heavenly Rank ridian Techniques!"
Xu Hongzhuang completed the rest of the sentence, causing the few won and Ling Wan to gasp in surprise, as such ans were beyond what they could currently perform.
Heavenly Rank ridian Techniques, which differed entirely from Earth Rank, represented a completely new level.
Except for Yun Xiao, the demon, almost every cultivator during the Earth Rank Third Realm is incapable of deploying Heavenly Rank ridian Techniques.
This is fundantally different from wielding advanced Earth Rank techniques while in the Seeking Origin Realm, as the most critical aspect is that Heavenly Rank Techniques require the blessing of Sky Power to unleash their full might.
Regardless of how hard one strives at the Earth Rank Third Realm, even at half-step Heavenly Rank, it is fundantally impossible to truly harness Sky Power for their own use, thus making Heavenly Rank Techniques unattainable.
But now, Lu Tianrun's ridian Qi forged an illusory mountain that continuously absorbed Sky Power, and these individuals, at half-step Heavenly Rank, naturally sensed the power they deeply yearned for with utmost clarity.
Even Fu Lingxue, similarly at the late-stage Floating Life Realm, could not help but show a grave expression as she sensed the aura gradually condensing within the mountain.
Fu Lingxue was not absolutely confident she could face the attack from the ridian Qi Mountain head-on, and if that mont ca, she had no other options but to employ Heavenly Rank Techniques.
Even if she evaded instantly, could human speed outrun techniques? The answer was clearly no, fleeing would rely plunge herself into a harder predicant.
Lu Tianrun evidently believed this too; in his view, the other party harnessed Ancestor Vein Power and employed so special Secret Techniques to elevate their cultivation to the middle-stage Floating Life Realm.
Such stringent conditions were painstakingly achieved by Yun Xiao, and under these circumstances, if he could still wield Heavenly Rank Techniques, Lu Tianrun refused to believe it.
Every Heavenly Rank Technique requires a cultivator at the Heavenly Rank Third Realm to diligently cultivate for a long ti, with so even requiring years to master proficiently.
It's certainly not sothing that could be achieved overnight. Previously, the young man hadn't reached the Heavenly Rank Realm, thus making Lu Tianrun convinced that he couldn't have practiced Heavenly Rank Techniques, beyond any doubt.
In fact, Lu Tianrun guessed correctly; even if Yun Xiao was the forr Holy Rank Third Realm Peak Long Xiao Battle God, his cultivation in this life was rather low; wanting to deploy Heavenly Rank Techniques at the Earth Rank Third Realm would only be possible under certain conditions.
After all, Yun Xiao at the Earth Rank Third Realm hadn't thoroughly mastered Sky Power, even if he knew nurous Heavenly Rank Techniques, without Sky Power, they'd be nothing but forms without substance.
And at the mont Lu Tianrun made his move, Yun Xiao imdiately knew the old man was deploying a Heavenly Rank Technique, and thus a peculiar color flashed in his eyes.
Yun Xiao knew himself well; he knew he couldn't endure much longer in this state, as this wasn't his pri period, he was rely gritting his teeth and holding on.
Thus, decisively, Yun Xiao thought of quick resolution; as his mind stirred, the Dragon Taming Sword slung on his back vanished in an instant.
"Die!"
As Yun Xiao made those small maneuvers, Lu Tianrun felt his ridian Qi Mountain had absorbed enough Sky Power.
As he uttered a low shout, the trendous mountain rushed toward Yun Xiao at incredible speed.
The mountain, tens of ters tall, although small compared to so actual peaks, lood like an imposing high peak before the slim figure of Yun Xiao.
This was even several tis larger than the Huge-toothed Demon Lion earlier, and everyone understood that if struck by such a mountain imbued with Sky Power, even though it wasn't solid, one would be instantly pulverized.
Just now, Yun Xiao indeed displayed formidable physical strength, even directly pulling off the Huge-toothed Demon Lion's two sharp fangs, but such strength clearly wasn't enough to resist the pressing weight of the enormous mountain.
Amidst Lu Tianrun's triumphant roar, he had absolute reason to believe that his Giant Mountain ridian Techniques were not sothing that the young boy could easily evade. Just one smash, and this battle would be decided.
Even if the youth was extrely fast and managed to dodge the first strike, could he avoid the second, third, or even the tenth? This was a powerful ridian technique that could be wielded at will.
"Has this kid been scared silly?"
Especially when Lu Tianrun saw the Giant Peak pressing down, and that boy in coarse clothes stood frozen, an elated cold smile appeared on his face.
Of course, Lu Tianrun didn't truly think Yun Xiao was scared senseless; he rely believed his Giant Peak pressed down too quickly for the youth to react.
With this in mind, Lu Tianrun was completely at ease. Yun Xiao, who hadn't made any moves at this point, was destined to turn into a pile of flesh within monts.
Boom!
The giant peak, weighing a thousand pounds, pressed down, and the thin figure indeed couldn't withstand even a mont, being crushed without a trace.
The imnse mountain fell to the ground, stirring a wave of dust. Once everything settled, where could the figure of the boy in coarse clothes be found?
"Finally dead!"
In the distance, Fu Lingxue breathed a long sigh of relief upon seeing this scene. Though rely a youth of about twenty, he seed even more formidable than veteran Floating Life Realm experts from the Tenglong Continent.
Perhaps even Fu Lingxue herself wasn't aware that after witnessing Yun Xiao's skills and intellect, a subconscious sense of apprehension had arisen.
A re half-step heavenly rank ant had dodged death for so long, and not even Lu Tianrun's fad ridian spirit Huge-toothed Demon Lion could subdue him, posing a threat to late-stage Floating Life Realm experts like them.
Fortunately, the waves stirred by the youth were not tidal, and he ultimately fell under Lu Tianrun's Heavenly Rank ridian Techniques mountain, squashed into pulp, dead beyond recognition.
"Big brother he..."
Compared to Fu Lingxue, the expressions of others on the other side differed. The honest and unassuming Ling Wan cried out, only to be interrupted in the next mont.
"Ling Wan, don't shout!"
Xu Hongzhuang interrupted Ling Wan. Perhaps compared to those around her, she remained the most confident in Yun Xiao after battling alongside him on the Slaughter Spirit Battlefield.
Xu Hongzhuang refused to believe Yun Xiao had died like this. She had been observing him closely, and just before the giant mountain pressed down, his thin fra had visibly trembled slightly.
Only soone with powerful soul strength and constant vigilance like Xu Hongzhuang could notice such a subtle movent, overlooked by Fu Lingxue and even Lu Tianrun, who executed the ridian technique.
However, Liu Hanyi, Mo Qing, and the others were confident in Yun Xiao, even though they hadn't observed as keenly as Xu Hongzhuang; they believed Yun Xiao wouldn't die so easily.
By the Big Lake in the center of Impermanence Island, a sowhat illusory ridian Qi Mountain stood, witnessing the fall of a genius. But in the next mont, a sudden change occurred.
Whush... whush...
Suddenly, there was the sound of gusts in the sky before Lu Tianrun, and as he turned in surprise, a massive black figure appeared not far in front of him.
"This... this is..."
Seeing the sowhat familiar massive black figure, Lu Tianrun montarily couldn't react, as it was the Huge-toothed Demon Lion he had just retracted within himself.
However, the Huge-toothed Demon Lion's exposed fangs showed no signs of being broken, and even the right foreleg Yun Xiao had blasted was perfectly intact, as if nothing had happened.
The bizarre scene stunned everyone, none understanding how this happened.
Only Xu Hongzhuang, who had witnessed certain techniques from Yun Xiao, felt a wave of excitent and anticipation in her eyes, as if expecting a scene to unfold.
In contrast to Xu Hongzhuang, neither the won alongside her nor Ling Wan, nor even Fu Lingxue in the distance, or Lu Tianrun closest to the Huge-toothed Demon Lion, could fathom the occurrence.
Of course, none considered this a trick of Yun Xiao. Especially Fu Lingxue and Lu Tianrun believed Yun Xiao had been crushed into a pulp, unable to perform.
Thus, at this mont, Lu Tianrun stared at the realistic Huge-toothed Demon Lion, faintly touched with joy. But as joy brewed within, causing his slight daze, his fate was already sealed.
