"Dare to sneak attack me, you’re courting death..."
A wild surge of power gathered from all directions, the surrounding meat slurry once again coalesced, reshaping into the likeness of Elder Huo.
"It’s the Rebirth Lotus! Elder Huo actually used a celestial treasure..."
Silence filled the air.
No one expected that their secret meeting would be interrupted by Zhang Xuan’s sudden appearance, nor did they anticipate Elder Huo, so formidable, would be killed on the spot without any chance to resist. But most surprising was the grand elder possessing such a rare artifact!
The Rebirth Lotus, a special treasure bestowed by the world, requires the absorption of ten thousand years of Origin qi to produce a single bloom. Once forged, it allows one to resurrect three times. Though categorized as a medicinal material, its effectiveness rivals even the most powerful treasures.
Ignoring the shock surrounding him, the recovered Elder Huo felt his head was about to explode. With a furious shout, he extended his hand towards Zhang Xuan.
In his palm, a dark vortex appeared, resembling a beast devouring Phantasm Space, while eighteen fire dragons emerged from both sides of his hand, stirring the heavens. Follow current novᴇls on novel-fire.net
Elder Huo’s Ultimate Skill — Fire Dragon Devouring World!
With strength at the Bodhisattva Peak, combined with this set of skills, few in the world can withstand it. Coincidentally, Zhang Xuan was one of them.
"Stop that nonsense! I’ve come to ask you some questions, don’t resort to fighting all the time, it’s not good!"
Zhang Xuan didn’t dodge, instead waved his hand, and the Xuanyuan War Chariot immediately charged towards the fire dragons.
It was like a hammer smashing onto a cockroach; in quick succession, eighteen crisp sounds rang out, and the eighteen fire dragons didn’t last even half a breath before simultaneously exploding, turning into a sky full of inferno.
Elder Huo was once again smashed into a meat patty, scattered everywhere.
"The blood essence at the Bodhisattva Realm Peak is indeed good stuff!"
This time, Zhang Xuan didn’t allow the opponent to recover, instead he grasped the air, collecting the scattered blood into the Suspended Realm.
Most of a cultivator’s strength is concentrated in their blood essence; with this blood gone, even if Elder Huo could resurrect, he likely wouldn’t have much strength left to prance about.
As expected, supported by the Rebirth Lotus, the grand elder resurrected the second time, yet without the blood essence’s support, his energy was frail to the extreme. He had just been at Bodhisattva Peak, now barely reaching the Peak of Life Sea 9-dan, dropping a full Cosmos Bridge realm level.
"Elder Feng, Elder Lei, act together, execute this Mandate Chaos Master..."
Unable to bear almost dying twice in mere breaths, Elder Huo couldn’t hold back any longer, shouting out loud.
"Are you Zhang Xuan? Trespassing into my Wanxiang Sect headquarters, assailing our grand elder, die!"
Elder Feng called out first, a flick of his wrist brought out a burlap sack into his palm, tossing it gently as it hovered in mid-air, blowing towards Zhang Xuan.
Celestial treasure, Burlap Sack!
Once deployed, it could unleash a hurricane that even Bodhisattva Realm cultivators find hard to withstand, causing the world to change color.
Elder Lei also took out a hammer and nail, tapping lightly, a thick bolt of lightning pierced through space, aiming straight at Zhang Xuan’s head.
The three grand elders of Wanxiang Sect commanded three elemental phenomena, each possessing overwhelming strength, otherwise they wouldn’t dare contemplate capturing Zhang Xuan to sell.
Utilizing the Wanxiang Map, their prowess was even more formidable; wind, fire, and thunder twisted space-time, seeming to refine everything.
Seeing Zhang Xuan trapped in the center of the assault and showing no intent to leave, Elder Ouyang Hai’s face changed, full of worry.
Just then, a calm voice sounded beside him.
"Obviously, it’s because the three grand elders recklessly offended Zhang Xuan..."
Mid-sentence, Elder Ouyang Hai realized something was amiss, quickly turning his head, only to see that the youth originally caught in the storm’s center was now quietly standing not far from him, looking curiously up.
"You, how are you here?"
Elder Ouyang Hai was stunned.
Having clearly seen him trapped by the three elders with absolute power, in inescapable misery, yet in the blink of an eye, he had arrived here, appearing so leisurely?
"Oh, I saw they were fighting fiercely, so I came over to hide..."
Zhang Xuan smiled gently, flipping his wrist, revealing some seeds in his palm, offering them: "Would you like some?"
Elder Ouyang Hai’s mouth twitched, speechless.
These are the three grand elders of Wanxiang Sect, each one a dominant figure in the Source World, and here, amidst their joint assault, not only did this man escape, but he’s calmly eating seeds, watching the commotion...
What on earth is his strength?
No wonder Buddha and Demon Lord both scurried away in fear, faced with innumerable experts encircling him, many died or were hurt, yet this man exceeded all expectations with sheer terror.
"Hahaha, surely dead this time!"
"Ouyang Hai kept boasting how formidable this guy was, but caught in our siege, not resisting, vulnerable!"
At this moment, Elder Feng and Elder Lei both laughed heartily above.
In their attack moments ago, they used their mightiest strength. The opponent hadn’t even fled; there’s no need to check, surely burned to ashes...
"Uh... grand elders, could you check who’s beside Elder Ouyang Hai?"
Before their excitement fully settled, Bai Xiaosheng’s awkward voice rang out.
Elder Feng and Elder Lei hurriedly glanced towards Ouyang Hai, surprisingly seeing a young man munching seeds, nodding gently as he met their gaze.
The two grand elders felt their brains buzzing, ready to explode anytime.
As the attackers, they could clearly sense if the opponent escaped; united strikes should have left him unscathed. The most puzzling thing was how he slipped out, and where did the seeds come from?
Could it be he stood quietly to one side, watching us perform?
"Keep going, your battle techniques are impressive, I haven’t seen enough..."
Spitting out a seed shell, Zhang Xuan said with a smile.
"Zhang Xuan, you seek death..."
Unable to endure any longer, Elder Huo let out a furious shout, words hardly finished as he felt his body uncontrollably vanish.
In that instant, Zhang Xuan’s hand had gripped his neck.
"Having a Rebirth Lotus is great, three resurrection chances for one person. But unfortunately, if not valued, it’s useless..."
Zhang Xuan shook his head.
"Dare you try killing me, this is the Wanxiang Sect headquarters..."
Elder Huo roared, but before he finished, he felt a fierce pain in his throat.
His head tilted to the side, evidently, his throat had been snapped by the youth.
Zhang Xuan shook his head, looking skyward: "Since you’re unwilling to perform, it’s time for me!"
Then he gently raised his fist, aiming it towards the sky, delivering a punch.
