Bang!
With a single step, the air shattered beneath him. Qi Jingkun forcibly halted his montum, feeling a reverse flow of his qi and blood he couldn’t suppress, and then spewed another mouthful of fresh blood.
"You! You’re clearly only at the Awakening Vein Realm. How can you possess such combat strength..."
Qi Jingkun, disheveled and battered, glared at Luo Cheng with wide bloodshot eyes, unable to accept what had happened.
An Earth-level Great Power can communicate with Heaven and Earth Essence Energy, moving with a transcendent might that overshadows any Awakening Vein Realm expert.
He was a dignified mid-stage One Extre Earth-level Great Power. Even without activating his Martial Soul and in a normal state, his strength should have been enough to crush an Awakening Vein Realm expert, yet he was severely injured by Luo Cheng in just one blow!
This was unacceptable to Qi Jingkun, almost driving him mad!
Through this clash, Luo Cheng had already assessed his own strength, at least at the late-stage Earth-level Great Power level.
Certain of himself, he fixed his gaze on Qi Jingkun and loudly declared, "I said I’d make an example of you, and I will! Die!"
With the word "die," Sword Qi flickered before Luo Cheng, countless strands transforming into a swirling tornado, shooting violently toward Qi Jingkun, true to the na of Divine Wind Absolute Kill.
Swish, swish, swish...
The Sword Qi, infused with half-step Sword Intent, roared fiercely, tearing the sky into countless black rifts with its sharpness!
"Damn it!"
Qi Jingkun, both shocked and furious, never imagined being overpowered by an Awakening Vein Realm expert. Severely wounded, his qi and blood churned, and he couldn’t even unleash sixty percent of his full strength.
"Kid, when I get my hands on you, I’ll cut you into a thousand pieces! You’ll learn what regret truly ans!"
Roaring in fury, Qi Jingkun activated his Martial Soul. At the sa ti, he took out a hexagonal shield dazzling with four stars in his left hand. Infusing it with all his Essence Energy, the shield instantly glead with a faint glassy luster.
Clang, clang, clang...
The Sword Qi arrived in an instant, slashing like a great river, causing the shield to erupt into a shower of sparks.
Qi Jingkun, holding the shield, spat blood, retreating step by step.
Though the shield blocked most of the Sword Qi, the continuous force still shook the bones in his left arm, and his entire body’s qi and blood surged.
Moreover, not all the Sword Qi traveled in a straight line; so circumvented the shield, grazing his body. Even with Protective Essence Energy guarding him, the Sword Intent embedded in the Sword Qi left him badly beaten and cut!
Within monts, Qi Jingkun’s hands and feet were bleeding profusely, as if he had rolled down a mountain of blades.
Suddenly!
Crack!
Under the relentless Sword Qi assault, the shield’s surface quickly dimd. With a slight cracking sound, a fissure burst open in the middle, swiftly spreading, clearly on the verge of collapse.
"How can this be!"
Qi Jingkun’s eyes turned blood-red; everything that had happened today was beyond his understanding!
This shield, a treasure he used at the Awakening Vein Realm, though only a Four-star Interdiate Treasure, should have offered defense unbreakable by any Awakening Vein Realm expert under his Essence Energy’s augntation.
Yet faced with Luo Cheng’s Sword Qi, it neared collapse so quickly!
With a loud boom, the shield shattered into thousands of pieces.
"Ah! Elder Mu! Save !"
Qi Jingkun was sent flying, his long knife disard, staring at the dense swarm of Sword Qi, all his courage gone, drowned in boundless terror. He scread in sheer panic.
Elder Mu, observing from afar, sprang into action, Essence Energy surging, five fingers grasping at the air.
Buzz!
The surrounding Essence Energy roiled, a water vortex suddenly manifesting before Qi Jingkun. The residual Sword Qi viciously struck it, setting off intense ripples, swallowed completely like pebbles in the sea, leaving no trace.
Whoosh!
With a flicker of motion, Elder Mu arrived at the battlefield’s center, an Eight-star Water Flow Martial Soul shimring behind him. Ripples spread around him, engulfed by a water curtain as tangible as reality, absorbing the battle’s aftershocks, restoring peace.
Having survived the ordeal, Qi Jingkun’s face turned ashen. Coughing blood, he glared at Luo Cheng and said:
"Elder Mu, this person can’t be left alive, or he’ll certainly beco a grave threat to the Qi Family!!"
He was genuinely frightened.
Never once in decades of life had he encountered such a terrifying Awakening Vein Realm expert!
Elder Mu nodded slightly, looking at Luo Cheng with undisguised shock in his eyes, remarked:
"I never thought Xuanyuan Sect would produce soone like you, still at the Awakening Vein Realm, yet capable of directly contending with Great Power-level experts. With such talent and strength, you’re qualified to rank in the top ten of the Domain List—no, perhaps even the top three! No wonder Yun Tianyan couldn’t match you."
"It seems everyone was fooled by your apparently Wasted Martial Soul. Not only are you not a waste, but you’re also an astonishing, glamorous genius! I’m truly curious, with a Wasted Martial Soul, how have you achieved such greatness?"
"It’s either your death or mine today; no need for chatter!"
Luo Cheng’s gaze was icy, disdainful of words, as he wielded the Fla Jade Sword, launching wave upon wave of Sword Qi. The sweeping fan shape engulfed Qi Jingkun and Elder Mu simultaneously.
His aim was clear: to kill Qi Jingkun first, slaying them one by one!
"You won’t kill him."
Elder Mu, sensing Luo Cheng’s intent, responded with vast ripples of Essence Energy, and with one hand, conjured a giant hand of flowing water, crushing vast swathes of Sword Qi.
Blocking the Sword Qi, Elder Mu looked at Luo Cheng, speaking indifferently:
"If it were a mont before, you might have had a chance to defeat . Unfortunately, your chance is gone now."
In Elder Mu’s view, Luo Cheng had already maximized his battle prowess, barely on par with a late-stage Earth-level Great Power, comparable to her.
An Awakening Vein Realm warrior with such combat prowess was indeed terrifying, extraordinarily terrifying!
But ultimately, it was just Awakening Vein Realm cultivation, fundantally different from a Great Power-level expert.
In knowing both herself and her enemy, Elder Mu didn’t believe Luo Cheng had any chance before her.
"Oh, really? I must test it myself and see if I truly have no chance!"
Luo Cheng’s will couldn’t be swayed by re words. His gaze sharp, he flickered into action, instantly closing in on Elder Mu, executing another Divine Wind Absolute Kill.
"Since that’s the case, let show you what reality ans."
Elder Mu sneered coldly, raising a finger. Heaven and Earth Essence Energy surged toward her, swirling intensely at her fingertip. As she pressed down, the water flow expanded into a waterfall-sized column, charging directly at the Sword Qi Tornado.
Boom, boom, boom...
The mont the two forces collided, they erupted wildly, causing the atmospheric currents to roil violently, scattering water frenziedly!
Elder Mu’s brows furrowed lightly, noting that from afar, one might not perceive it. But in direct confrontation, she genuinely felt the terrifying nature of Luo Cheng’s Sword Qi. Augnted by half-step Sword Intent, each strand was nearly indestructible, even by her hand, for he was rely an Awakening Vein Realm swordsman!!
As the two stalemated, an unexpected twist arose.
Seething with pent-up rage, Qi Jingkun saw a chance, his form flickering, silently and stealthily appearing behind Luo Cheng, his eyes glinting fiercely and maniacally:
"Haha! Kid, die! teorite Break!"
Qi Jingkun shouted, his entire body surging with Essence Energy, launching a punch as furious as thunder at Luo Cheng’s back.
Rumble!
The powerful fist energy, burning through air friction, ignited, descending like a blazing teor, ready to annihilate all!
"You’re the one who’s going to die!!"
Facing two Great Power-level experts, Luo Cheng was naturally on guard. Enveloped by Soul Power, all around was under his control. As the sudden ambush ca, his eyes flickered with cold light. Without looking, he t it with a left-handed punch.
The punch appeared soft and powerless, amplifying Qi Jingkun’s grim satisfaction, sneering with ridicule: "Haha! Kid, no matter how strong your swordsmanship is, you’re just at the Awakening Vein Realm! You dare confront head-on with your physique? Die!"
As his words rang out, the two fists clashed fiercely.
In an instant, the roars of dragons and elephants rang out, like chariots and horses clashing, as though countless lightning bolts rained down from the heavens, causing layer upon layer of atmospheric explosions.
"Oh no..."
The previously savage-faced Qi Jingkun’s eyes suddenly widened, watching helplessly as his fist power crumbled, his fist shattered inch by inch, followed by his arm, then chest!
With a resounding bang, a large hole was blown through Qi Jingkun’s chest, struck through by Luo Cheng’s single punch!
