“Don’t speak yet, I’ll kill first.”
Suddenly, Lu Xuan made his move!
His massive hand shot out, instantly conjuring a Heaven-reaching Handprint in the void. It was colossal, as vast as a Great Domain, surging with terrifying momentum, and hung menacingly above Elder Qianli’s head.
Even before it descended, Elder Qianli was drenched in sweat. He stared at Lu Xuan, utterly aghast. “How is this possible?!” He had never felt such a chilling premonition of death, not even in the presence of Feng Tianxiao! Just what level of power did Lu Xuan possess?
It was then, with a quick glance, that he finally noticed the great demon roasting in the void. It looked like the Pig-headed Demon General, Zhu Xiong! He was already perfectly roasted, crispy on the outside, tender on the inside! Qianli hadn’t even recognized him until now!
“Wait!” Elder Qianli roared.
But Lu Xuan ignored him completely, and the colossal, illusory hand slammed down.
Boom! Like the hand of a god, it was imbued with Rule Power, profoundly mysterious, crushing all opposition with sheer momentum!
A look of sheer terror flashed across Elder Qianli’s face. He let out a desperate roar, “Scripture of Silence!” In an instant, a swirling mass of black mist erupted around him. The other Silent Destruction Sect Elders nearby also activated their Scripture of Silence, and vast, ethereal mists immediately billowed outwards.
This was the Silent Destruction Power! The ultimate secret art of the Silent Destruction Sect, capable of withering the Divine Soul, decaying the physical body, and annihilating all power! Yet, before Lu Xuan’s colossal palm, it couldn’t wither a thing! All the Dao Patterns were shattering!
Elder Qianli’s face was a mask of shock. “How is this possible?!” The Silent Destruction Power, born from death itself, was a force the Silent Destruction Old Man had comprehended from the brink of annihilation. Over countless ages, it had even integrated insights from Eerie Power and Ominous Power, making it a sinister force comparable to the Witch Race’s power! Yet, it couldn’t block Lu Xuan’s colossal palm! Their Silent Destruction Power was being annihilated!
Elder Qianli let out another roar, directly summoning a Half-step Supreme Spirit Weapon and frantically activating it. But it was useless! Utterly useless!
“Crack!”
“Crack!”
Though Lu Xuan’s palm strike seemed effortless, it wielded the true power of a One-star Supreme. Who in this starry sky could possibly withstand it?
“No! No…”
“What kind of cultivation technique is this?!” Elder Qianli shrieked, his voice raw. The other Silent Destruction Sect Elders behind him were equally unable to remain calm. Damn it all! With the Heaven and Earth Change, they had planned to make a grand stand in the Southern Wilds! Were they truly going to fall halfway through their exploration of the Bronze Ancient Palace? Their ultimate goal was the Supreme Path, and in these three months, they had already collected a vast amount of Star Stones. The Supreme Path! They could have walked so far on it!
With that thought, Elder Qianli and the others, pushed to the brink of despair, ignited their boundless potential. Ignoring the backlash of Eerie Power and Ominous Power, they began to burn their souls, burn their flesh.
“Boom!”
After a series of explosive cracks, the robes of Elder Qianli and the others shredded, revealing dense red hair covering their bodies – a terrifying symbol of Eerie Power. The Eerie Power within them had reached its peak! They were pouring everything they had into resisting Lu Xuan’s palm! But even so, it didn’t slow it down in the slightest!
Elder Qianli wailed incessantly. “The Supreme Path, our Supreme Path!” he cried. “We can’t die yet, Lu Xuan, spare us!”
“Our Silent Destruction Sect will withdraw the bounty on Ji Fuyao!”
Lu Xuan scoffed coldly. “I just want to know,” he said, “why is my head only worth one low-grade spirit stone?”
“That was set by the Silent Destruction Old Man!” Elder Qianli shrieked.
“Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!” Moments later, amidst the agonizing screams of Elder Qianli and the others, their bodies dissolved into bloody mist. Form and Spirit Destroyed! Several Quasi-Dao Supremes of the Silent Destruction Sect had fallen just like that! A shower of crimson blood rained down across the starry sky! All of them, Instant Killed!
Not only that, but the Eerie Power and Ominous Power clinging to Elder Qianli’s body were completely annihilated by Lu Xuan’s palm, vanishing without a trace.
Witnessing this, Zhu Xiong’s face contorted. What the hell is there to fight?! Lu Xuan had obliterated even those two forbidden powers; there was no way a mere Two-rotation Quasi-Dao Supreme like himself could do that! The remaining great demons of the Demon Court trembled in terror. They had just witnessed the most horrifying thing in history. If Lu Xuan was a Three-rotation Quasi-Dao Supreme, how could he have emerged so early? If he wasn’t, then how could he be so incredibly powerful? It made no sense!
Lu Xuan turned to Feng Tianxiao, his voice flat. “Your turn.”
“Wait.” Feng Tianxiao suddenly waved his hand, which was visibly trembling!
Lu Xuan asked, “What’s wrong?”
Feng Tianxiao gritted his teeth. “I’m calling for backup!”
Calling for backup! Lu Xuan’s lips curved into a faint smile. “Alright,” he said. He glanced at the massive roasted pig demon, which was nearly done. He tossed a small bottle to Chen Changsheng. “Third Disciple, add some seasoning!”
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng took the small bottle. At the same time, he retrieved the Azure Nether Celestial Water, All-Reach Profound Powder, and Azure Origin Sweet Dew, pouring them directly over the roasted pig demon.
“Sizzle!” The Three-pronged Rake spun continuously, and the roasted pig demon meat released an intoxicating aroma. Even Feng Tianxiao and the others couldn’t help but swallow. Roasting a great demon with three Heavenly Treasures? Lu Xuan was utterly extravagant! Throughout the history of the Southern Wilds, had there ever been such a terrifying individual?
Lu Xuan turned and walked towards Chen Changsheng, then addressed Feng Tianxiao. “You can call your people now. I’m going to eat for a bit.”
Feng Tianxiao’s face twitched. He was in a bind, unsure what to do. Who in this world fought a battle, then went off to eat, and even told their opponent to call for backup? He couldn’t imagine how furious the Demon Lord of the Demon Court would be if he learned of this!
However, Feng Tianxiao did have an idea. No matter how powerful Lu Xuan was, he still held reverence for the Grand Dao Sect Ancestor! After all, the Grand Dao Sect Ancestor had left a wisp of his Dao Rhyme Soul in this very starry sky! And now, that wisp of Dao Rhyme Soul was controlled by the Supreme Profound Sect! This was because the Grand Dao Sect Ancestor, Dao Yi, had been constrained by the Supreme Profound Sect’s founder, Liu Ruyan. If they could summon the Grand Dao Sect Ancestor, perhaps the remaining members of their Demon Court could escape! This was their only option.
With that thought, Feng Tianxiao immediately activated an Unsurpassed Secret Art. His hand seals shifted, and brilliant spirit patterns surged, as he began to contact the Supreme Profound Sect.
Moments later, Yetian’s ancient voice echoed. “What is it? Have you found Lu Xuan?”
Feng Tianxiao hesitated for a moment. “Not yet. But there’s something I wish to ask.”
Yetian frowned. “Speak.”
A glint flashed in Feng Tianxiao’s eyes. He lowered his voice. “Can you still summon the Grand Dao Sect Ancestor, Dao Yi’s, soul?”
Yetian pondered for a moment. “Naturally. What do you mean?”
Feng Tianxiao warned, “I have an ominous premonition. You’d best be prepared before you arrive.”
Yetian burst into arrogant laughter, then said coldly, “Feng Tianxiao, has your Demon Court been scared witless?”
Feng Tianxiao: “…”
Yetian’s voice deepened. “A while ago, I gained some Outer World opportunities and have already stepped into the Two-rotation Quasi-Dao Supreme realm. I’m currently pushing for Three-rotation Quasi-Dao Supreme! As I am now, I am invincible under the starry sky!”
