The black stone plaza fell deathly silent.
Three heaps of mangled flesh lay sprawled on the ground, the pungent stench of blood shooting straight up their nostrils.
Sun Yu stood ten paces from the bronze table, his dark eyes fixed on Xiao Tiannan.
"I came here to eat meat, and this is how you welcome me?"
The fake smile on Xiao Tiannan's face froze completely.
He looked at the three Blood Washing Realm Peak Ancestors on the ground, their heads crushed beneath a single stomp, and cold sweat instantly soaked through the back of his purple-and-gold official robes.
No True Qi had been released, and there had been no physical contact.
Just by standing there, he had used some bizarre gravity to crush martial artists of the same realm.
What kind of monster was this?!
"Attack! Activate the formation!"
Xiao Tiannan could no longer care about his plan to lure the enemy deeper. He roared furiously.
Li Xuekuang and Tie Zhan, standing beside him, reacted with lightning speed.
Both bit through their tongues at the same time and spat a mouthful of blood onto the ground beneath the bronze table.
Xiao Tiannan crushed a Dharma Formula between his hands and poured every bit of his Divine Sea Realm early-stage true essence into the ground.
"Rumble!"
The entire black stone plaza shook violently.
With the ancient bronze table as the Formation Eye, eight thick, dark golden pillars of light shot skyward. They converged in an instant, forming an inverted semicircular golden shield in midair.
The shield contracted inward at tremendous speed, like a bulldozer, intent on forcing Sun Yu into the Cold Dragon Blood Abyss behind him!
"Fall back! Force him down!"
Xiao Tiannan's eyes were bloodshot as he stared fixedly at the shield.
Sun Yu stood where he was, watching the golden wall of light sweep toward him.
He didn't throw a punch at it, nor did he retreat.
He merely turned to look at the bottomless black fissure behind him.
The abyss was incredibly deep. A vast, immense tide of blood and Qi lay dormant at the very bottom.
It was the scent of pure demonic beast flesh and blood.
Compared with the dead meat on the bronze table, it was fresh and vigorous by tens of thousands of times!
A feverish, blood-red light suddenly flared in Sun Yu's eyes.
"You want me to go down?"
Sun Yu turned back and looked at Xiao Tiannan and the other two, standing beyond the shield with their guard up.
A mocking smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
"Since you've prepared the main course below, I won't stand on ceremony."
Before his words had even faded,
Sun Yu didn't wait for the array light shield to reach him.
He turned around of his own accord, drove his legs into the ground, and shattered the black stone floor beneath his feet.
Like a meteor plunging from the heavens, he leaped without hesitation and jumped straight into the bottomless Cold Dragon Blood Abyss!
The wind howled madly in his ears.
His body plummeted at tremendous speed.
Darkness swallowed his vision in an instant.
Above,
Xiao Tiannan saw Sun Yu jump into the abyss of his own accord. He froze for a moment, then burst into relieved laughter.
"Fool! What a reckless, suicidal lunatic!"
Xiao Tiannan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and formed another hand seal.
"Seal the formation! Lock down the abyss!"
The golden shield slammed down with a crash, like an indestructible well cover, completely sealing the entrance to the Cold Dragon Blood Abyss.
Li Xuekuang and Tie Zhan slumped to the ground, gasping for breath.
"That scared the hell out of me..." Tie Zhan stared at his own hands. "If that monster had attacked me just now, I wouldn't have lasted a single move."
"He's as good as dead." Xiao Tiannan straightened up, adjusted his official robes, and recovered the dignity of a lord.
"The awakening formation has already been activated. The Ice Calamity Dragon at the bottom of the abyss will awaken any moment. This ancient beast, at the middle stage of the Divine Sea Realm, has a body ten times harder than fine steel, and its breath can freeze magical treasures to pieces. No matter how tough that brat's body is, to the dragon he's nothing but a bone that might be a little hard to chew!"
Xiao Tiannan swept his sleeve, and true essence gathered in midair to form an enormous water mirror.
"Come, everyone. Let's enjoy the show and watch this madman get torn to pieces by the dragon!"
Down in the abyss, Sun Yu plummeted at breakneck speed.
He folded his arms across his chest, his pale, cold brocade robe snapping in the gale.
Facing the great demon below, at the middle stage of the Divine Sea Realm, Sun Yu didn't underestimate it for a moment.
Sun Yu's body suddenly sank in midair.
His falling speed instantly soared several times over!
Deep in his dantian, the bottomless black hole collapsed inward to an utterly inconceivable extreme.
The Prison Suppressing Force Field expanded with a thunderous boom!
Its radius surged from thirty zhang straight to one hundred!
The gravity within the field violently crossed the fiftyfold threshold and locked at a terrifying hundredfold!
A hundredfold gravity!
Every bone in Sun Yu's body rang out with a piercing sword cry.
The dark golden demonic patterns of his Asura Undying Body flickered wildly beneath his pale skin, perfectly bearing the extreme pressure that could crush an iron mountain into a flat iron cake.
"ROAR!!!"
Just then, a terrifying dragon's roar shook the heavens from the very bottom of the abyss!
The sound waves became a tangible froststorm, surging upward and crashing viciously into Sun Yu.
Sun Yu looked down.
In the darkness at the abyss's bottom, two enormous vertical pupils glowed like blood-red lanterns.
A monstrous beast over a hundred zhang long, its entire body covered in thick, dark-blue ice scales, awoke from its slumber.
The Ice Calamity Dragon!
Middle stage of the Divine Sea Realm!
The Imperial Court's formation had trapped it here and starved it for three hundred years.
Now, catching the scent of the human blood and Qi blazing from Sun Yu, the dragon went completely berserk.
It raised its massive head and fixed its gaze on Sun Yu, plunging toward it.
Its gaping maw opened wide.
"Whoosh!"
A breath of Extreme Cold, over ten zhang in diameter, shot upward like a beam of dark-blue light, blasting toward Sun Yu!
The breath was cold beyond all measure.
Everywhere it passed, several feet of solid ice instantly formed over the abyss walls, and even the air froze, spiderwebbed with fine cracks.
Above, before the water mirror,
Xiao Tiannan pointed at the dark-blue beam on the screen and laughed aloud.
"The dragon's breath! Absolute zero—it can freeze a Divine Sea Realm early-stage magical treasure to pieces in an instant! He's finished!"
Li Xuekuang and Tie Zhan stared intently at the water mirror, their eyes shining with the satisfaction of revenge.
In the abyss,
Sun Yu watched the breath of Extreme Cold slam toward him and showed no intention of dodging.
His hands hung loosely at his sides.
"Vmmm!"
Asura Undying Body—fully unleashed!
Dark-red Asura Gang Qi burst from his body, forming a demonic armor that clung tightly to his skin.
"BOOM!!!"
Sun Yu's body plunged straight into the beam of Extreme Cold!
The terrifying frost instantly enveloped him, trying to burrow into his pores and freeze his true essence and blood.
Yet—
The moment the frost touched the layer of dark-red Asura Gang Qi,
"Ssssss!"
A piercing hissing sound of vaporization erupted.
The Extreme Yang annihilating heat carried by the Asura Gang Qi was like raging flames boiling snow.
The dragon's breath, powerful enough to freeze magical treasures to pieces, couldn't even freeze a single hair on Sun Yu's head. It was incinerated and vaporized by the heat around his body, turning into a dense cloud of white mist!
Sun Yu bore straight through the beam of Extreme Cold and continued plunging down, unstoppable.
His speed didn't lessen; it increased!
Above, before the water mirror,
Xiao Tiannan's laughter caught in his throat. His eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets.
"Impossible! He withstood the dragon's breath with his body alone?!"
At the bottom of the abyss,
The Ice Calamity Dragon's pupils contracted.
In all its long life, it had never seen a human dare to withstand its breath with their flesh.
Just as it was about to close its jaws and smash the tiny human to pieces with a swipe of its claw,
Sun Yu had already pierced through the beam of breath.
"A hundredfold gravity."
Sun Yu gave a cold snort.
He aimed both feet at the dragon's enormous head below and stomped down with all his might!
"RUMBLE!!!"
Carrying the terrifying acceleration of a hundredfold gravity, Sun Yu's body was like a real heavy armor-piercing missile. He landed squarely on the Ice Calamity Dragon's forehead!
A deafening crash shook the heavens and earth.
The ice that had endured for ten thousand years at the bottom of the abyss shattered over a vast area.
"ARGH!!!"
The Ice Calamity Dragon let out a scream of excruciating pain.
The scales on its head, tough enough to withstand strikes from spiritual artifacts, cracked apart beneath Sun Yu's stomp.
That enormous head was forced down by his unreasonable brute strength, slamming hard into the rocky floor of the abyss.
It smashed a crater dozens of zhang deep!
Sun Yu used the rebound to turn a somersault in midair and landed steadily on the floor of the abyss.
He raised his head and looked at the hundred-zhang demon dragon ahead, thrashing its head as it struggled back to its feet.
There was not a trace of fear in his eyes.
Only feverish excitement at the sight of an exquisite ingredient.
"What a huge piece of meat."
Sun Yu licked his lips, and the tendons in his legs snapped taut.
Swimming Dragon Steps!
The ground beneath his feet exploded. His body became a dark-red blur, skimming over the ground as he charged straight at the demon dragon.
The Ice Calamity Dragon flew into a complete rage.
It was an ancient beast at the middle stage of the Divine Sea Realm, yet a human at the Fetal Transformation Realm had stomped on its head!
"ROAR!"
The demon dragon opened its gaping maw. Its thick, mountain-pillar-like tail swept toward Sun Yu with a terrifying sonic boom that tore through the air.
The force of that tail was enough to pound a hundred-zhang-tall mountain flat.
Sun Yu neither dodged nor flinched.
He charged into the sweeping tail.
"Force field, open!"
"Vmmm!"
The space within a hundred-zhang radius suddenly sank.
The moment the sweeping tail entered the field, it seemed to have had a mountain of iron weighing tens of thousands of tons hung from it, and its speed abruptly plunged.
Sun Yu thrust out both hands.
His ten fingers were like ten peerless steel blades.
"Squish!"
His fingers pierced the dark-blue ice scales at the end of the dragon's tail and sank deep into its flesh and bone.
Sun Yu clamped both arms around the thick tail.
The Ice Calamity Dragon felt its tail being grabbed and abruptly tried to wrench it free.
But then, to its horror, it realized—
Its power, enough to churn rivers and seas, couldn't budge this human, tiny as an ant, even a fraction!
Sun Yu's feet were nailed into the rock.
Dark-red demonic patterns flashed madly beneath his pale skin.
His Major Accomplishment Sword Marrow rang out in a deafening resonance.
True essence erupted from his dantian like a tsunami.
"Get up!!!"
A feral roar ripped from Sun Yu's throat.
His waist and abdomen tightened with sudden force, and his spine snapped straight like a fully drawn bow.
Before the water mirror above, Xiao Tiannan and the others watched in utter horror.
A terrifying sight that completely shattered their understanding of the world unfolded before them.
Sun Yu.
A human being less than two meters tall.
With both hands wrapped around a dragon tail dozens of times larger than he was.
He forcibly lifted an ancient demon dragon, a hundred zhang long and weighing tens of millions of jin, off the ground.
And swung it up from the bottom of the abyss!
"Whoosh!"
Sun Yu swung the colossal dragon body through the air, unleashing a gale powerful enough to destroy the world.
The muscles in Sun Yu's arms bulged as he suddenly spun around.
He wielded the hundred-zhang demon dragon like an enormous whip.
Then, toward the abyss wall on one side—
with savage brutality—
he slammed it down!
"RUMBLE!!!"
A terrifying crash shook all of Wind Snow Prefecture.
The hundred-zhang dragon body smashed squarely into the hard rock wall.
The entire face of the cliff collapsed in an instant!
Countless boulders tumbled down.
The Ice Calamity Dragon let out a shrill, agonized wail. Its icy scales, mixed with dragon blood, sprayed wildly through the air.
But this wasn't the end.
It was only the beginning.
Sun Yu's eyes were bloodshot as he once again put his arms into the swing.
He lifted the dragon body and hurled it toward the wall on the opposite side.
"RUMBLE!!!"
The rock wall exploded.
He swung it up again!
And slammed it down!
"RUMBLE!"
"RUMBLE!"
"RUMBLE!"
Unbridled violence! Sheer savagery!
Sun Yu stood rooted in place, both hands gripping the dragon's tail with all his might.
Again and again, like swinging a giant hammer, he smashed this mid-stage Divine Sea Realm ancient demon against the walls of the abyss.
Dragon blood fell like a torrential rain.
With every dull crash, the dragon's shrill cries grew weaker—and more desperate.
