Chapter 210

“What!?”

“Blackheart was smashed with a single punch!?”

“How … how is that possible!?”

“That old guy was at the Tenth Stage of the Soul Transformation Realm, just a step away from the Void Refinement Realm!”

“A body cultivator!? That sword cultivator from the Heavenly Dao Holy Land is also a body cultivator!”

At this moment, someone exclaimed aloud. “A body cultivator!? No wonder he could punch Blackheart to pieces! But in this era, body cultivators who can reach the Sixth Stage of the Soul Transformation Realm are exceedingly rare!”

In the sky, blood rained down. The Yin Demon Banner unfurled, revealing a faint black silhouette. Although his body had been destroyed, Blackheart’s primordial spirit had taken refuge within the Yin Demon Banner.

“You little brat, do you think killing me will be that easy!?” Blackheart sneered as he flicked his fingers, shooting out a beam of light. The light directly shattered the meteorite lying in the crater below.

Instantly, golden light burst forth.

A wave of searing heat swept through the entire valley. The golden light rose gradually, resembling the rising of a great sun.

“This … is the Solar Star Core?”

“The Solar Star Core! That’s the core of a star, formed after a sun shatters in the depths of the cosmos. It contains the purest solar and stellar energy in existence!”

“This is a peerless treasure. No wonder it caused a fiery rain across the sky earlier!”

With the Solar Star Core now revealed, the surrounding crowd of cultivators became visibly excited.

Their gazes burned with greed. Even a fragment of the Solar Star Core was as valuable as a sacred artifact. Even the mighty leaders of holy lands would fight to claim it.

“You brat, if you think you can kill me and monopolize the Solar Star Core, you’re dreaming!”

“Unless you kill every single cultivator present here!”

“Hahaha!” Blackheart laughed triumphantly.

Although his body had been destroyed, he saw this as an opportunity to escape amidst the chaos. He couldn’t take the Solar Star Core with him, but he also wouldn’t allow it to fall into the hands of these juniors from Heavenly Dao Holy Land. If he could stir the situation into turmoil, his chances of escaping would improve.

“Courting death!” At that moment, a cold snort resounded from the sky.

Then the triumphant smile on Blackheart’s face was replaced with sheer terror.

A figure in a moon-patterned robe appeared within his sight.

Although the figure was still some distance away, they closed the gap in a single step and stood directly in front of him.

“You … Youyue Peak Master!?” Blackheart trembled uncontrollably, overwhelmed by regret.

Why was he laughing just now?

Why hadn’t he used those precious seconds to escape?

“Die!” Zhan Qiuyun wasted no words.

Her jade-like hand extended, and with a single palm strike, she pressed down.

Blackheart didn’t even have time to cry out in pain before his primordial spirit was completely obliterated.

The Yin Demon Banner was promptly stowed away by Zhan Qiuyun.

Her beautiful eyes sparkled with excitement as she gazed at the Solar Star Core, suspended in midair, radiating heat and brilliance like a miniature sun.

She had, in fact, arrived long ago but had been silently observing Yang Chen’s display of strength. It wasn’t until the Solar Star Core appeared that she could no longer remain passive.

The value of the Solar Star Core to her was immense—enough to justify killing everyone present if anyone dared challenge her claim to it.

After annihilating Blackheart, Zhan Qiuyun reached out to seize the Solar Star Core. Her gaze swept across the crowd.

Although the onlookers’ eyes were filled with burning desire, not a single person dared step forward to stop her.

“Youyue Peak Master!”

At this moment, a middle-aged man at the Tenth Stage of the Soul Transformation Realm spoke up. However, before he could finish his sentence, Zhan Qiuyun clenched her five fingers.

In an instant, the previously calm space surged violently with spatial power. Dozens of pitch-black spatial blades tore through the man, reducing him to ashes. Even his primordial spirit had no chance to escape.

This scene sent shivers down the spines of everyone present.

The Youyue Peak Master truly lived up to her reputation. She appeared otherworldly, like an ethereal goddess, yet her ruthlessness was unparalleled, leaving mountains of corpses in her wake.

The man she had just killed was no ordinary figure—he was an elder of a righteous sect. Yet, before he could even finish speaking, she ended his life without hesitation.

“This Solar Star Core belongs to me!” Her voice was clear and commanding. “If none of you brought a Dao Integration Realm powerhouse along on this trip, then don’t even think about claiming it! Attempting to do so will only bring about your deaths!”
