Chapter 153: Chapter 153: To annihilate you, I alone am enough!

“Who won?”

The crowd on the stone path all widened their eyes, staring at the center of the battle between Li Yun and Cui Yuan.

“Senior Brother Cui!”

As the dust settled, Tang Man and the other two gasped audibly.

On the devastated stone path, Li Yun stood there like an immovable mountain, his clothes not even a bit damaged!

On the rocky wall opposite Li Yun lay a figure sprawled against it!

The immense force had shattered the wall, embedding his body into it. Crimson blood continuously flowed from his right arm and mouth, his face pale as paper.

That person was none other than Cui Yuan!

“How is this possible…”

Tang Man’s eyes widened in disbelief.

He knew very well how strong Cui Yuan was—a genius who had awakened a Six-star Martial Soul, immensely talented, and accepted as a direct disciple by Sun Yingyang, one of the top ten elders of the Outer Sect! Half a month ago, he had already reached the Essence Energy Refinement Realm, with one foot into the Tongxuan Realm!

To put it bluntly, Cui Yuan’s strength had already reached the absolute peak of the Transcendence Realm. Yet against Li Yun, he ended up in such a miserable state!

“So, have you admitted defeat now?”

Li Yun flicked his sleeve and looked at Cui Yuan, a playful grin on his face.

Cui Yuan’s eye twitched, the intense humiliation making his eyes bloodshot as he gritted his teeth. “Despicable coward! You attacked by surprise!”

“Surprise attack?”

Li Yun sneered disdainfully, rubbing his fingers as he replied with interest:

“Seems like you still don’t understand reality. In that case, I’ll give you one more chance to strike, so you can comprehend my methods.”

“Arrogant! Do you really think I’m just a fish on your chopping board, at your mercy?”

A vicious expression flashed across Cui Yuan’s face. With a low growl, his garments began to flutter despite the lack of wind.

In the next moment—

Roar!

A massive flame bear materialized behind Cui Yuan. The six stars shining brightly on its body emanated a suffocating aura.

Li Yun raised an eyebrow. “Oh? A Six-star Martial Soul Fire Essence Bear… not bad.”

“Today, you’re undoubtedly dead! Shattering Jade Palm!”

After releasing his Martial Soul, Cui Yuan desperately channeled his Essence Energy, his aura rising to its peak. His right palm, now radiating dazzling, star-glittered brilliance, struck down at Li Yun with full force.

Boom!

Under that palm strike, the very air rippled with tangible waves.

Li Yun’s lips curled into a sinister grin, his right hand emitting a faint blood light, as he too delivered a palm strike.

Boom!

The two ferocious forces clashed violently, causing a gale to sweep across the stone path, which then returned to silence.

Cui Yuan stood in place, frozen, looking down.

A blood-drenched hand had pierced through his chest, clutching his heart! As his heart throbbed, blood seeped out, staining his robes a vivid red!

“Cough! Impossible! This can’t be! You haven’t reached the Tongxuan Realm, at most you’re only half a step into the Tongxuan Realm. How can your strength be so overwhelming?”

Cui Yuan’s face twisted into a grimace as he stared at Li Yun with wide, unblinking eyes.

He couldn’t understand. Both of them were at the Essence Refinement stage and half a step into the Tongxuan Realm. Why had he been instantly crushed?

“Heh, second-rate sects will always be second-rate. Even their disciples are fools! Do you not understand that even within the same half-step Tongxuan Realm, there exist disparities? Die!”

Li Yun laughed wildly. With a loud “bang,” he directly crushed Cui Yuan’s heart.

Pfft!

Cui Yuan’s eyes widened in disbelief as he took his final breath!

In the fleeting moment of his death, countless thoughts flashed through his mind—regret at accepting this mission, regret at not fleeing the moment he’d learned his opponent belonged to the Extreme Dao Sect…

Buzz!

As Cui Yuan’s heart exploded, strands of vivid red blood energy seeped into Li Yun’s palm.

Instantly, the blood light on Li Yun’s right hand grew even more intense, almost solid in nature.

“As expected of the Essence Blood of a half-step Tongxuan Martial Artist. It’s far superior to that of ordinary people!”

Feeling the surging vitality within his body, Li Yun nodded in satisfaction.

Seeing Li Yun’s euphoric expression, Tang Man and the other two exchanged horrified glances.

“Run!!”

Tang Man suddenly snapped back to reality and, along with the other two Fierce Cloud Sect disciples, turned to flee.

Cui Yuan was a half-step Tongxuan master, an entire level stronger than them, yet he’d been killed in the blink of an eye! If they didn’t run now, what were they waiting for?

At that moment, only one thought filled their minds: Escape! Escape! Escape as fast as possible!

Crash!

Just as Tang Man and the other two turned, several black-clad men radiating murderous intent surrounded them, blocking their path.

“Kill them and force your way through!”

Tang Man roared, his eyes bloodshot, immediately summoning his Martial Soul. A Thorny Leopard, sparkling with five stars, appeared behind him, boosting his aura.

“Shattering Jade Palm!”

“Ten Qi Tornado Slash!”

“Cloud Splitting Leg!”

At the edge of life and death, the three unleashed their most powerful Ultimate Skills, determined to break through and escape.

“Form Battle Formation!”

The five Black Qilin Army members blocking their way remained composed. At their leader’s command, they swiftly arranged themselves into a circular formation, their long spears thrusting out in unison.

Boom!

The two sides collided instantly. The strongest of the five Black Qilin Army members was only in the Transcendence Realm Fifth Layer—a level far weaker than the desperate Tang Man and his companions. The formation crumbled in moments, all five vomiting blood as they were sent flying.

“Run!”

Without pausing, Tang Man attempted to flee the scene.

But just as he turned, a chilling sensation spread through his chest, and his strength rapidly drained away.

A blood-soaked hand pierced through Tang Man’s chest, crushing his heart!

“Senior Brother Tang Man!”

“Kill him!”

The remaining two Fierce Cloud Sect disciples, realizing escape was impossible, steeled themselves and charged at Li Yun together.

“Foolish wretches who overestimate themselves…”

Li Yun shook his head, his figure flashing forward.

Splatter!

Splatter!

Blood sprayed in all directions. In an instant, two heartless corpses fell to the ground!

Li Yun licked the blood lingering on his fingers, a satisfied expression on his face. “Not bad. With this blood essence, my Tu Yuan Blood Hand will reach minor mastery!”

At that moment, a burly man in black approached, casting a glance at Cui Yuan’s corpse. He said:

“Young Master Li Yun, that man awakened a Six-star Martial Soul and was a half-step Tongxuan Realm martial artist, likely a direct disciple of a Fierce Cloud Sect Elder. Now that he’s dead, the Fierce Cloud Sect will probably send Tongxuan experts to investigate. We should leave quickly.”

Li Yun nodded and chuckled. “It’s time to go. However, before that, we still have a guest to attend to.”

As he spoke, Li Yun’s sharp gaze locked onto Luo Cheng’s location.

Luo Cheng smiled bitterly.

As expected, he’d been discovered!

Without hesitation, Luo Cheng stepped out into the open.

“Oh?”

Li Yun sized him up, noticing his youthful appearance—barely fourteen or fifteen—and his Cultivation at merely the Transcendence Realm Fifth Layer. A flicker of surprise crossed his eyes before he laughed:

“I’m curious. Why didn’t you run?”

Luo Cheng replied calmly, “I came for you. Why would I run?”

Hearing this, Li Yun was momentarily stunned, then broke into mocking laughter:

“Those Fierce Cloud Sect disciples were already stupid enough, but you outmatch them in stupidity! Knowing I’m a half-step Tongxuan Realm martial artist, you dare step forward to court death? Or is the Xuanyuan Sect so short on people that they have to send a braindead fool like you?”

Luo Cheng lifted his gaze, his pupils radiating a sharp intensity, enunciating each word with chilling precision:

“To destroy you all… I alone am enough!”
