Chapter 383: You’re Like a Fallen Immortal, Killing With the Flick of a Finger
The people of the three nations only knew that Su Yi had broken through in the skies of the Jade Capital, becoming a Xiantian Martial Ancestor before cutting down an entire group of Earthly Immortals.
What they didn’t know was that even if he?hadn’t?broken through, he still would have had numerous means of wiping the entire group out.
Similarly, the people knew that he’d defeated the top sword cultivator of the Great Wei, Qiu Hengkong, before the Wheel of the Moon Sect’s mountain gates.
However, almost none of them knew that only his final attack was a true representation of his power.
Although Qiu Hengkong took that attack head-on, it smashed his defenses effortlessly, as if he were an ant!
Since returning to Heaven’s Origin Academy, he took two Yin-Yang Nine?Purities?Pills daily, and his cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds. He had already reached the peak of the Xiantian Martial Ancestor Realm.
One more step, and he could enter the Grain Avoidance Realm.
He was so close that, if not for his desire to obtain the strongest Dao Seed, he could have stepped into the Origin Dao whenever he pleased!
Thus, despite being surrounded by a group of powerful foes, Su Yi wasn’t the least bit afraid. On the contrary, the sight of enemies on all sides ignited his long-dormant will to fight.
It was lonely at the top. Why? Because worthy opponents were few and far between.
When he really encountered someone worth fighting, he was thrilled. How could he possibly be scared?
Boom!
The longer the battle raged, the more intense it became.
Su Yi’s qi and essence surged. With every casual movement, he broke through the layers of incoming attacks. The longer he fought, the stronger he became.
His gaze was cold and distant, while his essence, qi, and spirit boiled. His will to fight blazed, stimulating his latent potential.
Su Yi could keenly sense that this battle served as tempering for his cultivation base, body, and soul. All three were silently transforming.
His blood boiled, and he felt utterly free and unrestrained. This was even more intoxicating than the world’s most potent alcohol.
If he just had to compare it to something, it was almost like indulging in dual cultivation to his heart’s content…
“Blissful” wasn’t enough to describe it!
When his opponents sensed that Su Yi fought with ever greater intensity the longer the battle continued, their expressions changed dramatically, and their eyes widened in disbelief.
“Six Origin Palace cultivators and twelve Grain Avoidance cultivators have joined forces. How is it possible that even after all this, we still can’t take down a single Xiantian Martial Ancestor?” Qin Dongxu’s expression alternated between rage and alarm.
The strength Su Yi had on display far surpassed the rumors!
“Dammit, is that little whelp really a banished immortal? If not, how could someone so perversely strong possibly exist in this world?” Even an old devil like Tong Xinghai was shocked and alarmed. He dared not believe that a Xiantian Martial Ancestor could be this strong.
Elder Yun, A’Lin, Rong He, Nie Xingkong and the other Possessed looked utterly grave. Their hearts churned with emotion too.
They hailed from another world, and their understanding and insight into the Grand Dao far surpassed the Earthly Immortals of the Azure Continent.
Thus, they saw themselves as lofty and supreme. In their eyes, the inhabitants of this world were nothing but backward savages. Those worthy of their recognition were so rare, they could count them on their fingers.
Yet when they faced Su Yi now, all of their pride and confidence shattered, replaced with shock and fear!
This was because, even in their world of origin, there were no Xiantian Martial Ancestors as heaven-defying as Su Yi.
He was so strong that it was simply unreasonable!
“Kill him!”
“Attack with everything you’ve got. Quick!”
Bellows rang out throughout the hall.
It didn’t matter how shaken they felt. Neither Tong Xinghai’s heretical cultivators nor Qin Dongxu and his allies held anything back.
They were fighting with their lives on the line, with terrifying majesty.
Rumble~
Wind and lightning ran rampant. Flecks of light burst apart. The aftershock of a battle of this level was like a tidal wave sweeping in all directions.
The most unbelievable part was that despite the aftermath of the battle, the palace reminiscent of the abode of a deity showed no signs of damage. Had a battle like this transpired in a mundane city, it would have been a calamity, and it would have caused inestimable destruction.
“Chu Xiu, how long do you plan to wait?” Su Yi’s voice suddenly emanated from the battlefield.
Everyone’s expressions changed.?This guy… He thinks all of us working together still can’t take him down?
Chu Xiu said expressionlessly, “Don’t be in such a rush, Fellow Daoist. When you overcome your current predicament, I’ll have a pleasant surprise for you.”
“Oh?” Su Yi swept his gaze across his foes, then sighed. “Alas, you people are only fit to serve as my stepping stones.”
Even if they joined forces, this bunch wasn’t enough to threaten him. Without a fatal threat, it was hard to use a battle to achieve breakthroughs in his cultivation.
This put a damper on Su Yi’s surging, unrestrained fighting intent. He was starting to lose interest.
This was boring.
He no longer hesitated; it was time to end this.
“Die!” Nie Xingkong waved his swords and charged.
The leader of the Hidden Dragon Sword Sect was an Origin Palace cultivator. He was tall and stalwart, with a despotic, oppressive aura. When he waved his swords, it was as if he were waving twin mountains. Each strike was as mighty as could be.
Even someone in the same realm might not be able to block this domineering onslaught.
But Su Yi, who had already decided to end this, simply leaped into the air, sleeves billowing, and pressed with his palm.
Boom!
A sound like a millstone turning emanated overhead, like a god pushing a massive wheel through the skies. They then watched as a ten-foot palm manifested out of thin air.
The palm looked as if it had been carved out of clear and translucent divine jade. Five types of elemental light emanated from its surface, as well as the profound and miraculous charm of the Dao.
“Die,” said Su Yi, a calm look on his face as his hand pressed down.
The clear palm imprint struck with unstoppable power. The instant it descended, Nie Xingkong’s twin swords seemed like wooden poles by comparison. They wailed on impact, then flew uncontrollably from their owner’s hands.
They couldn’t so much as diminish the clear palm imprint’s power. It continued ahead, slamming into Nie Xingkong, whose bones and tendons snapped as he burst apart with an explosion of gore.
One palm had slapped him to death!
This overbearing, bloody scene left Su Yi’s remaining foes visibly stunned. All of them tensed up. 𝘣𝑒𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭．𝑜𝘳𝘨
Nie Xingkong had been an Origin Palace cultivator, yet he couldn’t block so much as a single palm strike. Su Yi had snuffed him out as easily as if he were a baby chicken!
Chu Xiu silently clenched his fists, his eerie green eyes flashing with cold luster.
Yet he still didn’t move. He just watched the battle in silence. Hua Xinfeng was a spectator too, and when she saw this, she couldn’t help but feel alarmed.?Either this guy is completely heartless, or he’s plotting something!
“Cut!” Suddenly, Gu Qingdu and Qin Dongxu attacked in unison. Both charged at Su Yi.
Gu Qingdu waved his halberd, filling the skies with a rain of sharp, dazzling golden light. Its momentum was terrifying.
Qin Dongxu activated a Daoist insignia flowing with radiant, multi-colored light. The words “Soul Suppression” were inscribed on its surface in an ancient script.
This was a relic. When used, it could suppress and disperse a cultivator’s soul.
Meanwhile, Clarifying Truth flung a string of crystalline prayer beads. They burst with radiant light in midair, unleashing a flood of Buddhist light, which poured down like rain.
The three of them coordinated smoothly, without the slightest gaps.
Not far behind them, A’Lin, Elder Yun, and the heretical cultivators seized this opportunity to attack as well!
This onslaught swept toward Su Yi on all sides, like multi-layered waves.
However, it was different from before. It seemed that Nie Xingkong’s death had stimulated them, and all of them were risking it all on their ultimate techniques. They were fighting for their lives.
.
In the face of an attack of this level, Su Yi showed neither joy nor sorrow. His face didn’t so much as ripple with emotion.
He suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed down?on the?air.
Boom!
Throughout the one hundred feet around Su Yi, countless flecks of light surged into being, like blazing stars, then swept forth.
The Starry Sky Sword Fingers.
When Su Yi unleashed this ability with all his might, it stopped the incoming onslaught with an earth-shaking boom.
“You’ll be the second to die.” Su Yi seized the opening. He stepped forward, appearing right beside Gu Qingdu. His right hand clenched into a fist, which he slammed downward.
“Activate!” Gu Qingdu’s expression changed dramatically. He cast aside his halberd, and his hands formed seals in the air as he activated a miraculous defensive?Daoist?technique.
Bzzzz!
Spiritual light circulated around Gu Qingdu, and a thick, nine-layered, heavy, yellow light barrier formed around him.
But beneath the terrifying power of Su Yi’s fist, the layers of light cracked and burst apart.
The fist slammed into Gu Qingdu, killing him!
Flecks of light burst apart like rain as his various defensive treasures exploded. Even his body burst apart, scattering blood and gore.
Just like that, Su Yi’s second foe fell in battle!
But this was only just the beginning—
Clang!
It seemed Su Yi felt that he wasn’t killing them efficiently enough. He drew the Abstruse God Sword, and his entire presence changed. Weapon in hand, he was now as sharp and imposing as an immortal.
The clear hum of a sword reverberated throughout heaven and earth, and one sword mountain after another appeared out of thin air, forcefully suppressing the attacks encroaching from all sides.
Great Five Elements Suppression Domain Sword!
The suppressive force was enough to injure quite a few of them. Blood dripped from their lips, and their formation almost broke.
Su Yi seized the opportunity to slash three times in rapid succession.
Splurt! Splurt! Splurt!
With a spray of blood, three dripping heads flew through the air. They belonged to Water Monarch Blue Shark, Old Demon Golden Corpse, and You Changkong.
The stumps of their necks were perfectly smooth, but before their headless bodies even hit the floor, the terrifying aftershocks of the raging battle minced them into a meaty pulp. Blood and gore flew through the air, a shocking sight.
Immediately afterward—
Three flicks of his fingers later, a sword penetrated Qin Dongxu’s throat. His eyes bulged, and in the last moments before his life force faded, his bitterness was written all over his face. He knew no peace even in death.
Seven flicks later, A’Lin’s silver spear flew from her hands. She tried to dodge with all her might, only for Su Yi to slice her directly in two, a brutal sight.
Ten flicks later, Lin Yubei let out a terrified shriek. He completely lost his nerve, then turned to flee.
But before he could escape, flecks of dazzling sword light enveloped him, like a galaxy pouring onto the world below. His soul instantly shattered and dispersed.
By now, Su Yi had executed eight of his opponents!
With his sword in hand, he was simply unstoppable. Nothing could stand in his way. He was even stronger and more terrifying than before.
Now, of Su Yi’s foes, only Clarifying Truth, Shang Luoyu, Elder Yun, Rong He, and Tong Xinghai remained.
They’d already fled in terror, creating as much distance as possible. None dared approach, and all of them were visibly shaken and alarmed, as if they’d suffered an overly great shock.
The bloody spectacles they’d only just witnessed dealt them a ruthless blow. All of them felt as if their souls had left their bodies, and their will to fight had crumbled!
When they next looked at Su Yi, it was as if they faced the Sword Dao’s god of death. Dread and panic were written all over their faces.
Even Hua Xinfeng was too stunned to even speak. She could never have imagined that Su Yi could be so domineering even when surrounded by such experts.
He was simply unstoppable! He killed these long-established experts as if they were nothing but monkeys and chickens!
Su Yi looked at Chu Xiu and exclaimed, “You’ve kept your composure even after all this? That’s actually rather surprising.”
Off in the distance, Chu Xiu’s expression was icy as he stood in place.
Even as his subordinates fell one after another, he didn’t move in the slightest.
This was unquestionably out of the ordinary.
