Dongfang He’s face slightly changed, and an inexplicable panic and unease surged in his heart.
"Devour?" The Ice Phoenix slightly furrowed her brows, thinking to herself, "Does the master also possess the Divine Power of devouring? The master is currently only at the Golden Core Stage, can he really devour such a strong power?"
When Gu Chenfeng’s loud shout fell, an extremely terrifying Devouring Power suddenly erupted from within him.
"This is the power of devouring!" The Ice Phoenix’s beautiful eyes widened instantly, and she couldn’t help but gasp in astonishment, "The master actually possesses such a terrifying Devouring Power!"
"This isn’t Spiritual Power, what kind of power is this?" Dongfang He frowned deeply, and the unease in his heart grew even stronger.
The overbearing Devouring Power began to frantically devour Dongfang He’s Energy Slash.
"He’s devouring power!" Dongfang He was shocked and terrified beyond belief, "He can actually devour such strong power! Does he have a death wish?"
The giant Energy Slash visibly shrank, and its once formidable aura rapidly weakened.
"What overbearing Devouring Power! It’s simply unbelievable!" The Ice Phoenix watched, dumbfounded and full of shock.
Dongfang He stood frozen in terror, like a wooden chicken.
After the Energy Sword shrank by a circle, the white Sword Aura easily shattered the Energy Sword and fiercely charged towards the petrified Dongfang He.
Seeing the domineering Frost Sword Aura shooting towards him, Dongfang He snapped back to reality in terror, frantically retreating as he activated his Spiritual Power to condense an Energy Shield. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel✶fire.net
Yet, as Dongfang He retreated a few meters, his body suddenly came to a halt.
"Not good!" Dongfang He’s face suddenly changed drastically.
The overbearing Ice Attribute Spiritual Power had already frozen Dongfang He’s feet. The terrifying Ice Attribute also began spreading around him at a speed visible to the naked eye, forming an Ice Array.
Dongfang He desperately activated his Spiritual Power, intending to forcibly break through the ice, but no matter how he struggled, his feet seemed clamped by iron tongs, unable to break free.
Even desperately invoking Water Attribute Spiritual Power couldn’t break the ice.
What terrified Dongfang He even more was that the Water Attribute Spiritual Power he unleashed was also devoured by Gu Chenfeng.
The overbearing Frost Sword Aura quickly shot towards him, and Dongfang He, anxious and burning with impatience, roared angrily, "What the hell is this Ice Attribute?"
Dongfang He was completely panicked, and despair appeared in his eyes.
With cold eyes fixed on Dongfang He, Gu Chenfeng said coldly, "The Celestial Technique has exhausted your Spiritual Power significantly; you can forget about breaking free, you can’t escape."
"Gu Chenfeng! The third Elder of the Myriad Swords Sect is in the Medicine God Hall. If you kill me, you won’t survive either! By then, the Dongfang Family and the Myriad Swords Sect won’t spare the Ancient Divine Sect!" Dongfang He threatened angrily.
"Is that so? I’ll be waiting for them," Gu Chenfeng replied with a cold smile.
Dongfang He’s threats were evidently of no concern to Gu Chenfeng.
The closer the domineering Sword Aura got, the more fearful Dongfang He became, finally begging in terror, "Gu Chenfeng! Stop! Please stop! I’ll do whatever you want, just don’t kill me, spare my life."
Gu Chenfeng sneered, "I want you dead."
Dongfang He’s expression shocked, then he snarled angrily, "Gu Chenfeng! If you dare kill me, I won’t let you go even as a ghost!"
Just as Dongfang He’s angry shout fell, the domineering Frost Sword Aura mercilessly struck him, its explosive energy engulfing him, his fate unknown.
The Water Attribute Spiritual Power Dongfang He had activated was all devoured by Gu Chenfeng.
This meant that Dongfang He had no Spiritual Power defenses left.
The power of Gu Chenfeng’s sword was terrifying, and even if Dongfang He survived, he would definitely be severely injured.
As the explosive energy gradually dispersed, Dongfang He’s figure slowly reappeared.
Dongfang He was still alive.
Truly deserving of his status as a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, his physique was incredibly strong.
Even with no defenses, facing the terrible Sword Aura head-on, he survived.
Dongfang He’s aura was extremely weak, covered in blood, with severe injuries, appearing extremely wretched.
"Gu Chenfeng!" Dongfang He gritted his teeth and roared, his fierce glare like a snake’s as he stared at Gu Chenfeng.
"Why survive? To experience the thrill of dying again?" Gu Chenfeng coldly laughed, then formed a Sword Point, conjuring dozens of Ice Swords.
Under Gu Chenfeng’s control, each Ice Sword simultaneously transformed into dozens of tiny Ice Needles.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
The Sword Point directed the air, and over a thousand Ice Needles shot out like lightning with sharp, tiny sonic booms.
Dongfang He’s pupils shrank, intense fear and despair surging once again in his heart.
Over a thousand Ice Needles cruelly pierced through Dongfang He’s body, his blood splattering continuously, turning Dongfang He into a sieve in mere moments, destroying even his Nascent Soul.
As arrogant as he was moments ago, now he died just as wretchedly.
Looking at Dongfang He’s corpse riddled like a sieve, Gu Chenfeng thought to himself, "If it weren’t for the Devouring Power, even with my current strength, I wouldn’t be able to defeat a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator using the Divine Realm Sword Technique."
"Master, are you alright?" The Ice Phoenix flashed forward and asked.
"I’m fine," Gu Chenfeng shook his head slightly, "Let’s go to the Ancient Divine Sect."
"Yes, Master," the Ice Phoenix replied with a happy smile.
Just as Gu Chenfeng’s spirit ship sped away.
The figure of Yao Hun appeared out of thin air, as if he’d always been there.
The great battle occurred just outside the Ancient Celestial Mountain, and with Yao Hun’s cultivation, he naturally sensed it.
Watching the spirit ship flying away, Yao Hun thought to himself, "Old Ancestor’s strength is truly terrifying. At the late stage of the Golden Core, he was able to kill five Nascent Soul cultivators. There’s not a second one like that in the entire Cultivation Realm."
"The late-stage Nascent Soul peak power, Old Ancestor can endure it; all this is beyond my imagination, truly worthy of the Old Ancestor."
Glancing at the bodies of Dongfang He and his companions below, Yao Hun’s eyes flickered with a chill, coldly saying, "Myriad Swords Sect, Dongfang Family, you’ve got guts."
Outside the mountain gate of the Medicine God Hall, several long queues had already formed.
Several queues stretched from the mountain gate into the deep mountains, with more people continuously arriving.
Despite the numerous cultivators present, the scene remained very quiet; no one dared make any reckless moves.
Not only did they refrain from acting out, but each face was filled with respect and admiration.
Even the third Elder of the Myriad Swords Sect, a Divinity Transformation Stage expert, had to obediently queue up now.
One person looked back, then respectfully said, "Third Elder, Junior Brother Ye and the others have been gone so long, why haven’t they returned yet? Did something happen?"
"Third Elder, I feel something has gone wrong too," another said respectfully, "With Junior Brother Ye and the others’ strength, plus Dongfang He, killing a Golden Core Stage is a piece of cake; it shouldn’t take this long."
The third Elder slightly furrowed his old brows, also feeling something was off, then said in a low voice, "There must have been an incident. Go check immediately, and if you see Gu Chenfeng still alive, kill without mercy!"
