Xuanyuan Che's words were calm, yet they carried incomparable arrogance, ringing clearly through the deathly silent Medicine Valley.
Everyone froze, thinking they had misheard.
He... what had he just called the two Saint Kings? Two old bones?!
Those were Saint Kings! Colossal figures who looked down upon the Three Thousand Dao Domains, whose slightest stomp could shake an entire region! The emergence of any one of them was enough to make every major faction treat them with solemn respect. Now that the two had joined forces, their pressure alone was enough to suffocate Saints!
Yet this youth had called them "two old bones"? And asked, "Just you two?"
Mad! He had absolutely gone mad!
"Ignorant brat! You seek death!" The Saint King of Burning Heaven Valley flew into a rage. He had cultivated for thousands of years; when had he ever suffered such contempt? He stopped wasting words and struck at once!
He raised two fingers like a blade and slashed through the air!
"Burning Heaven Dao Slash!"
A crimson-golden blaze of blade light appeared from thin air. It was initially only several feet long, but then it swelled against the wind, transforming into a colossal blade a thousand zhang in length! The flames upon it were no ordinary fire, but Burning Heaven laws condensed from his Saint King Dao Fruit. Wherever it passed, the void was scorched black, and even Great Dao runes wailed in grief! This strike could easily slay a mid-stage Saint!
At the same time, the old woman from Heavenly Palace Academy struck as well, sweeping the jade-like whisk in her hand.
"Heavenly Net, All Laws Forbidden!"
Three thousand strands of whisk hair instantly transformed into white threads that blotted out the sky and covered the earth. Each strand contained the dual laws of confinement and severance, weaving into a massive net that covered the heavens as it descended over Xuanyuan Che!
This net did not target the physical body. Instead, it severed one's connection to the laws of heaven and earth. Once caught within it, one would become a bird in a cage, left to be butchered at another's whim!
The two great Saint Kings struck in fury without holding anything back, determined to suppress and brutally kill Xuanyuan Che in an instant!
"Junior Brother!" Yun Mengyao and the other two were horrified beyond measure, about to rush forward regardless of the cost to help him.
At the same time, within a distant and concealed spatial dimension, a hazy, indistinct feminine figure stood quietly. Even the glimpse of her immortal visage was breathtaking beyond compare.
Her aura merged perfectly with the void, as though she did not exist within this time and space.
When Xiao Qi saw the two Saint Kings cast aside all dignity to attack Xuanyuan Che, a nearly imperceptible flicker of emotion passed through her tranquil eyes.
It was... the displeasure of having been offended, along with icy killing intent.
She slightly raised a jade finger. The surrounding void laws began to ripple subtly, while a terrifying power capable of annihilating a Saint Soul in an instant quietly gathered.
In her eyes, the very existence of those two old fellows was a desecration of the young master.
If Xuanyuan Xiaoyao had not strictly ordered that she must not interfere unless Xuanyuan Che's life was truly in danger, she would have appeared long ago and casually crushed those two noisy flies to death.
Yet in the face of the heaven-destroying joint attack of two Saint Kings, Xuanyuan Che merely shook his head lightly.
"Saint Kings... are only capable of this much."
He no longer suppressed the surging, boundless power within his body. At last... he became somewhat serious.
Bzzzz—!
An indescribable divine radiance of chaos erupted from his body!
It was no longer merely a trace of Bloodline Pressure, but a true display of power!
His body seemed to transform into the source of chaos. Countless streams of Chaos Qi burst from every pore, each one as heavy as a mountain, crushing the void!
Within his eyes, earth, wind, water, and fire replayed themselves, opening heaven and splitting earth!
A blurry yet incomparably majestic phantom emerged behind him. That phantom stood upon primordial chaos and held chaos in its hand, as though it were the beginning of all principles and the end of all things!
The true form of the Innate Chaos Dao Body had begun to manifest!
"Break."
Xuanyuan Che softly uttered a single word.
He still threw only one punch.
Where his fist passed, the thousand-zhang flaming blade light containing the Burning Heaven laws seemed to encounter its natural bane, and the laws composing the blade light shattered instantly.
At the same time, the Heavenly Net descending from above broke apart the instant it came into contact with Chaos Qi. Those whisk strands were like cobwebs meeting scissors, snapping inch by inch and losing all spirituality!
One punch! It broke both Saint Kings' killing moves!
"What?!"
"Impossible!"
The Saint King of Burning Heaven Valley and the old woman from Heavenly Palace Academy cried out at the same time, their eyes filled with horror! Their full-power attacks had actually been broken by a single casual punch?!
That Chaos Qi... that physique... that phenomenon behind him...
"You... what kind of monster are you?!" The old woman of Heavenly Palace Academy shrieked, a trace of fear in her voice.
"Noisy."
Xuanyuan Che's gaze turned cold. He took a step forward, and his figure blurred instantly. Ignoring the distance of space, he appeared directly before the Saint King of Burning Heaven Valley.
"Not good!" The Saint King of Burning Heaven Valley felt his scalp explode. Sensing a fatal crisis, he frantically burned his Essence Blood and summoned an ancient shield engraved with a flaming qilin before him. This was a powerful defensive Saint King Weapon!
Xuanyuan Che did not even glance at the ancient shield. His fist did not slow in the slightest as it smashed directly into the shield's surface.
Clang—!!!
It was like the ringing of a great bell, the sound tearing through the clouds!
The powerful Saint King Weapon shield sprouted countless cracks the instant it touched Xuanyuan Che's fist. Then it exploded with a bang, turning into countless fragments that swept backward!
His fist passed through the fragments and struck the Saint King of Burning Heaven Valley squarely in the chest.
Pfft—!
The Saint King of Burning Heaven Valley's eyes bulged violently, bloodshot veins filling them. He felt as though an ancient star had slammed head-on into him. The Saint King laws protecting his body shattered like paper, his chest bones caved in instantly, and his organs were ground into powder!
He spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with fragments of his organs, within which were threads of shattered Great Dao runes!
His body shot backward like a meteor and slammed violently into a distant mountain. The mountain collapsed and buried him beneath it, leaving his life or death unknown!
One punch! A Saint King defeated! A Saint King Weapon shattered!
The entire scene fell deathly silent! A needle dropping would have been heard!
Everyone seemed to have been struck by a immobilizing spell. Their minds were utterly blank, and they had lost the ability to think.
That was a Saint King! Not some stray cat or dog! Yet he had actually... been blasted apart by one punch?!
The old woman of Heavenly Palace Academy was frightened out of her wits. There was no trace of fighting spirit left in her. With a strange cry, she burned her lifespan and transformed into a streak of light, seeking to tear through space and flee!
"Did I say you could leave?"
Xuanyuan Che's voice was ice-cold.
He held two fingers together like a sword and lightly slashed at the fleeing streak of light.
Screech—!
A fine strand of Chaos Sword Qi crossed space and instantly caught up to the old woman of Heavenly Palace Academy.
"No—!" The old woman let out a despairing scream and desperately activated every defensive treasure she possessed.
Yet everything was futile.
The Chaos Sword Qi ignored all defenses and passed directly through her body.
The old woman's fleeing figure abruptly stiffened in midair. Then her body split into two from the middle. Even her Divine Soul and Dao Fruit were instantly assimilated by Chaos Qi and vanished!
Body and soul utterly destroyed!
Another Saint King had fallen!
From the moment Xuanyuan Che made his move to the death of one Saint King and the grievous injury of the other, only the span of a spark had passed!
Within the distant spatial dimension, Xiao Qi watched Xuanyuan Che resolve the battle as easily as dry weeds and rotten wood, and the trace of displeasure in her eyes quietly faded.
The corner of her immortal visage softened like an iceberg melting, and her lips curved up slightly.
The terrifying power gathered around her silently dispersed. She concealed herself within the void once more, as though she had never existed. Yet her assessment of the young master's strength quietly rose by another level.
"It seemed Lord Xiaoyao's worries were somewhat unnecessary."
Xuanyuan Che floated in the air as the Chaos Qi around him slowly withdrew, while the majestic phantom behind him gradually faded away.
His gaze swept across the utterly petrified crowd below. Everyone his eyes passed over trembled uncontrollably and lowered their heads deeply, not daring to even breathe too loudly.
