Proactive Attack, Making a Wedding Dress for Others!

In the dark of night, scattered sparks suddenly transformed into dense Sword Qi.

Each strand of Sword Qi blazed with fire, emitting a sharp edge, and then let out a piercing whistle!

Su Xin, a cultivator at the first level of the Primal Energy Realm, and his companion, also at the first level of the Primal Energy Realm, had been simultaneously attacking Xia Wuji. However, when this Flame Sword Qi appeared, expressions of utter panic immediately flashed across their faces.

Who dared to continue their attack?

They hurriedly stopped their forward momentum. One swung his saber, the other wielded his sword, deploying defensive measures to block Xia Wuji's Flame Sword Qi.

But their defenses were like paper, utterly useless. In an instant, the two let out tragic wails as streams of Flame Sword Qi pierced their bodies!

With undiminished residual power, and under the control of Xia Wuji's emanating spiritual energy, these Flame Sword Qi abruptly changed direction, shooting towards the remaining cultivators in the Sea of Qi Realm.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Sword Qi whistled, and blood splattered.

In the blink of an eye, no one was left standing on the field except Su Xin; all others had perished.

"Xia... Xia Wuji..."

"You... what cultivation level are you?"

"Don't kill me... please..."

Lying on the ground, covered in blood, Su Xin struggled to lift his head. He looked at Xia Wuji, who was sitting by the campfire roasting meat, his face contorted in pain, and his heart filled with endless dread.

So... Xia Wuji is this powerful!

Xia Wuji ignored Su Xin. He simply broke off a piece of the roasted rabbit leg and ate it unhurriedly before getting up and walking over to Su Xin.

He lifted a foot and stepped on Su Xin's head.

"Bang!"

Su Xin's head slammed heavily onto the ground, sinking into the earth.

Xia Wuji removed his foot and said coldly, "Do you know why I didn't kill you?"

Su Xin: "I know... I know... I was wrong. I apologize. If you let me go... I promise I'll never bother you again. Also, I'll definitely give you something satisfactory to ransom my life..."

Xia Wuji let out a cold laugh and said, "I'm keeping you alive not for your apology, nor for your Su family's possessions. Tell me truthfully, where is Chu Jue!"

That Twelfth Prince of the Great Chu Dynasty, Chu Jue, had repeatedly caused trouble and even put out a bounty on Xia Wuji.

Xia Wuji naturally wouldn't wait for more trouble to come to his doorstep.

He wanted to take the initiative.

"The Twelfth Prince has a treasure that can lock onto the location of the Rock-Swallowing Behemoth. He's currently leading my brother and the others to hunt one..."

"They've already found a Three-Eyed Rock-Swallowing Behemoth..."

Su Xin dared not conceal anything. Under the threat of death, he honestly told Xia Wuji everything he knew.

"Xia Wuji..."

"Young Master Xia, Brother Xia... Uncle-Master Xia... I've told you everything. Please, be merciful and spare me..." Su Xin wept profusely.

Xia Wuji sneered and said, "But did I say I would let you go?"

As his voice fell, he stepped forward, completely crushing Su Xin.

Xia Wuji found four Yuan Crystals and several pills among the corpses, collected them all into his Storage Ring, and then released flames to burn the bodies and erase all traces.

Following that, he moved with a profound footwork technique, departing at extreme speed.

As dawn broke.

In a region of the Secret Realm space filled with rugged, strange rocks.

The Twelfth Prince Chu Jue, Su Guang of the Su family, and several noble disciples with Primal Energy Realm cultivation had gathered.

"Reporting to the Twelfth Prince, everything is ready, we can proceed," Su Guang said, cupping his hands before Chu Jue.

Chu Jue, who had been sitting cross-legged, eyes closed, and cultivating, slowly opened his eyes and said, "Is there still no news of that Xia Wuji?"

The moment the name Xia Wuji was mentioned, Chu Jue's eyes turned incredibly cold, and a dense killing intent emanated from him.

Su Guang said, "Your Highness, please rest assured. You've already issued a bounty. It's useless for Xia Wuji to be cunning. In this Secret Realm space, he has nowhere to run. It's only a matter of time before he falls into your hands."

"Now, let's deal with that Three-Eyed Rock-Swallowing Behemoth first."

The other noble disciples nodded in agreement.

Chu Jue hummed and said, "You all can rest assured too. Hunting Rock-Swallowing Behemoths with me won't treat you poorly. I guarantee each of you will enter the top ten and successfully pass this assessment."

As he spoke, Chu Jue stood up and looked into the distance. "This Three-Eyed Rock-Swallowing Behemoth is equivalent to a cultivator at the tenth level of the Primal Energy Realm. Be careful when we engage later, and act according to the plan!"

"Yes!"

"Let's move!" Chu Jue gave the order.

A look of intense anticipation appeared on his face.

Hunting a One-Eyed Rock-Swallowing Behemoth only yielded two points; a Two-Eyed Rock-Swallowing Behemoth gave ten points; but a Three-Eyed Rock-Swallowing Behemoth directly awarded one hundred points!

At this moment, Su Guang, who had the cultivation of the third level of the Primal Energy Realm, immediately rushed out. After charging a distance, his body suddenly leaped up, drawing a top-grade treasure sword. Sword light erupted, and he fiercely slashed towards the ground!

A crack split open in the ground from his sword strike.

"Roar!"

An enraged roar echoed from beneath the earth.

Immediately after, a massive stone arm, like a mountain suddenly emerging from the ground, swung towards Su Guang.

"Gale Talisman!"

From a distance, a woman with the cultivation of the second level of the Primal Energy Realm softly called out. She formed hand seals and unleashed a talisman. The talisman glowed in the air before transforming into a gust of wind.

As Su Guang was about to be struck, he was empowered by the Gale Talisman. His body instantly shifted sideways in mid-air, successfully evading the attack. He then landed and charged towards the Twelfth Prince, Chu Jue.

"Roar!"

An enraged roar sounded again, shaking the heavens and earth. A Rock-Swallowing Behemoth, standing ten feet tall, suddenly rose from the ground!

Its massive stone head had three eyes, one of which was a vertical eye filled with a hazy, gray light.

A beam of gray light shot out from the vertical eye, blasting towards Su Guang.

Su Guang, still under the effect of the Gale Talisman, narrowly dodged the gray light. When the gray light hit the ground, the earth instantly solidified into a thick layer of stone skin, covering an area of dozens of feet!

This was the power of the Three-Eyed Rock-Swallowing Behemoth. Not only was it immensely strong and incredibly durable, but the light from its third vertical eye possessed petrifying abilities.

Su Guang was drenched in cold sweat. Under the immense danger and stimulation, his speed increased even further.

The ten-foot-tall Three-Eyed Rock-Swallowing Behemoth madly pursued Su Guang.

Suddenly.

"Boom!"

"Boom boom boom boom!"

Violent explosions erupted around the Rock-Swallowing Behemoth.

Chu Jue and his companions detonated treasures they had buried in the area beforehand, directly blasting the Three-Eyed Rock-Swallowing Behemoth to the ground. Many of its hard stone plates shattered.

"Attack!" Chu Jue commanded.

Everyone immediately surged forward, unleashing various powerful techniques. Taking advantage of the Rock-Swallowing Behemoth's fallen state, they unleashed a barrage of attacks!

For a time, the area was filled with the sounds of booming and constant explosions.

"Roar!"

The Three-Eyed Rock-Swallowing Behemoth let out a massive roar, enduring the immense pressure, and stood up again. It swept its arms, and its vertical eye shot out beams of gray light, terrifying the noble youths of the Great Chu Dynasty. They quickly retreated, falling back to Chu Jue's side.

Chu Jue snorted coldly, formed hand seals, and a ring instantly flew out. This ring was a low-grade Spirit Artifact of the first rank. It enlarged in the air before descending and encircling the Three-Eyed Rock-Swallowing Behemoth.

The ring tightened!

The Three-Eyed Rock-Swallowing Behemoth's arms and body were bound and squeezed, continuously breaking apart!

"Congratulations, Twelfth Prince, on successfully hunting the Three-Eyed Rock-Swallowing Behemoth!" Su Guang and the others immediately shouted. They ceased their attacks and congratulated Chu Jue.

According to the rules, whoever landed the final blow would receive the points.

A brilliant smile appeared on Chu Jue's face. He then drew a saber, which was also a low-grade Spirit Artifact of the first rank.

Next, with just one strike, a hundred points would be his!

But at this moment, a figure suddenly flashed over and stood directly on the Three-Eyed Rock-Swallowing Behemoth's head!

It was Xia Wuji, who had arrived!

He thrust his sword straight down!

The sword tip pierced into the Three-Eyed Rock-Swallowing Behemoth's head!

Sword Essence erupted!

The Three-Eyed Rock-Swallowing Behemoth's head shattered completely!

Chu Jue and the group of noble youths stared at the scene, their expressions initially stunned. Then, boundless rage erupted in each of their hearts!

They had meticulously planned and risked danger, only for their efforts to benefit someone else!
