As everyone looked on in horror, Li Xuancang casually tossed the Grand Elder aside. Su Xinghai, standing behind him, immediately stepped forward and caught the Grand Elder.
"Be careful!"
Seeing this, Supreme Elder Liu and the others cried out in alarm.
The Grand Elder had been utterly powerless in Li Xuancang's hands, but he was still in the Dharma Body Realm. Even gravely wounded, he was not someone a mere Divine Repository Realm cultivator like Su Xinghai could suppress.
The Grand Elder had originally believed death was certain. He had never expected Li Xuancang to be so arrogant as to throw him to Su Xinghai.
The Grand Elder's gaze sharpened. He had found a chance to escape with his life, and he had to seize it.
Enduring the searing pain, he drove his power to strike Su Xinghai dead in one blow before making his escape.
Having guessed the Grand Elder's intentions, Supreme Elder Liu and the others disregarded their own injuries and burst forth at top speed toward Su Xinghai, determined to prevent tragedy.
As he neared Su Xinghai, the Grand Elder bared his teeth and struck out with his palm.
"Die!"
Even heavily injured, this palm strike was enough to kill any Divine Repository Realm cultivator.
Bang!
The palm landed on Su Xinghai's chest, yet the imagined sight of Su Xinghai exploding never appeared.
Su Xinghai stood as immovable as a towering mountain. The Grand Elder's power failed to shake him in the slightest.
"Th-This... this..."
Supreme Elder Liu and the others froze, suspended in midair.
The Grand Elder's pupils shrank as well, disbelief filling his heart.
He tried to withdraw his hand, but a terrifying suction force erupted from Su Xinghai's body, leaving him unable to move.
"Aah!"
The next moment, a heart-rending scream pierced the heavens.
