Mystic Heaven Finger

At the summit of Wendao Mountain sat a deep-purple egg.

Suddenly, the shell cracked and scattered in all directions, revealing the figure inside.

Xia Yu stood up, looked at the shell fragments on the ground, and shook his head with a wry smile.

It was not a real eggshell. It had formed from the blood he had shed and impurities expelled from his body, which had settled around him.

After cultivating nonstop, day and night, for two full months, he had finally compressed all the Origin Force in his body.

The only thing that left Xia Yu speechless was that, although his Origin Force had been compressed, three of his original seven small worlds were now empty.

This...

He felt like crying, but had no tears. The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy he would need for future cultivation would absolutely be an astronomical amount.

Looking into the void, Xia Yu suddenly extended a finger and pointed.

A streak of light flashed and vanished.

The void shuddered slightly, humming.

Xia Yu frowned slightly, looked toward the distant Martial Saint Mountain, and pointed a finger at it from afar.

Boom...

A ten-thousand-pound boulder atop Martial Saint Mountain suddenly exploded.

"Who dares bully our Martial Saint Academy?"

A figure rushed to the summit, only to find rubble strewn across the ground.

Looking around in confusion, he spotted Xia Yu and frowned slightly, then shifted his gaze elsewhere.

Xia Yu was a king realm cultivator. From so far away, he could not possibly have attacked Martial Saint Mountain.

After searching for a long time without finding anyone, he could only leave in frustration.

Meanwhile, Su Deyu, who was hiding nearby, was utterly shaken.

The power of that finger strike was terrifying.

He could shatter a ten-thousand-pound boulder with a single strike just as Xia Yu had, and could even do better.

But he was at the half-step saint realm.

And Xia Yu?

King realm second heaven!

The gap was enormous.

"Thank you for watching over me, Master!"

Just then, Xia Yu suddenly bowed toward Su Deyu's hiding place.

He found me?

Su Deyu coughed dryly and walked out with his hands clasped behind his back.

"When did you notice your master?" Su Deyu asked, smiling broadly.

This disciple is incredible!

The thing is, what have I even taught him? What have I given him?

Wait, those mountains of Spirit Stones.

At that thought, Su Deyu's heart ached.

"I only just noticed you, Master. You must have been watching over me all this time. I'm deeply grateful."

"Mm, at least you have a conscience, brat. You're done cultivating, right? Hurry down the mountain, or your Martial Uncle Lin will come after me with his life on the line."

As soon as Xia Yu descended the mountain, he saw Lin Xulun.

"Greetings, Teacher." Lin Xulun respectfully offered a disciple's salute.

"Hello, Lin..." Xia Yu paused. Calling him Martial Uncle Lin seemed inappropriate. What should he call him?

After a moment's hesitation, he said, "Let me visit my elder sister first, then we can talk."

"Yes, Teacher."

Lin Xulun answered and followed behind Xia Yu like his attendant.

Seeing Xia Yao's rosy complexion put Xia Yu in a wonderful mood.

After they chatted for a while, Xia Yao told Xia Yu to attend to his business.

Lin Xulun stood nearby. Although he said nothing, his fingers kept fidgeting, making Xia Yao feel awkward.

She knew perfectly well that the more highly her younger brother was valued, the safer he would be.

Xia Yu stayed a little longer before leaving the courtyard with Lin Xulun.

Suddenly, a voice reached Xia Yu's ears.

"Xia Yu, you turtle! Come out and fight!"

"Xia Yu, you're a gutless bastard! Come out if you've got the balls! What kind of ability is hiding inside the Dao-Seeking Academy?"

"Xia Yu, who the hell do you think you are? All you can do is hide, too scared to show your face? Say you're a big turtle and crawl a few laps on the ground, and your granddaddy here will let you off!"

Xia Yu looked at Lin Xulun, who said calmly, "Ever since you entered seclusion, Teacher, people have been issuing challenges. Later, they even started hurling insults."

"Su Xiang'er and Shen Yuxuan couldn't take it and went out to fight. Both were injured. After that, Old Su forbade anyone from accepting a challenge."

Xia Yu nodded, turned, and darted toward the Dao-Seeking Academy's entrance.

"Hey, someone's coming out! Someone from that turtle of a Dao-Seeking Academy finally came out!"

"Who is it? Those two last time weren't worth a damn."

"It's Xia Yu! It's that turtle Xia Yu! Quick, call Senior Brother Lu! Call Senior Brother Lu! Xia Yu's come out!"

Someone shouted, and a signal arrow shot into the sky.

His expression calm and his hands clasped behind his back, Xia Yu slowly walked out.

"It really is Xia Yu! Hahaha! Xia Yu, you turtle hiding in your shell, you finally decided to come out!" someone laughed loudly.

Xia Yu glanced at him and asked, "You're from the Martial Saint Academy?"

"Your granddaddy's from the Martial Saint Academy! What of it? Want to hit me? Come on! I'm begging you to hit me!"

Xia Yu smiled and said, "First time I've heard that request. I'll grant it!"

He extended his hand and pointed a finger.

Mystic Heaven Finger!

Bang!

An intact head exploded on the spot.

A headshot!

Xia Yu smiled and said, "Too weak! Who gave trash like him the courage? Who else wants a beating?"

In an instant, the Martial Saint Academy's disciples all avoided Xia Yu's gaze.

That disciple had been in the king realm, yet his head had exploded before they could even see what happened. It was terrifying!

Most of these people had not experienced that battle. Although they knew Xu Weilin, the inner sect's Senior Brother, had been killed, they all believed the Dao-Seeking Academy's teachers had killed him.

Naturally, the Martial Saint Academy's higher-ups would not publicize the matter. It was far too humiliating.

Especially after Su Xiang'er and Shen Yuxuan were injured, the people from the Martial Saint Academy had become even more arrogant.

Seeing that no one spoke, Xia Yu smiled and asked, "Who injured my Senior Sister Su Xiang'er and Senior Brother Shen Yuxuan?"

"What, you want revenge? It was me." A voice rang out from afar.

The moment those words fell, the man arrived.

He wore white robes, his face handsome as polished jade, his bearing striking.

"Greetings, Senior Brother!" The Martial Saint Academy's students all saluted.

With an indifferent expression, the Senior Brother glanced at Xia Yu and asked arrogantly, "You're Xia Yu?"

"Senior Brother? The newly appointed inner sect Senior Brother? Your last Senior Brother was killed by me." Xia Yu smiled.

"Hmph! I was away gaining experience at the time and hadn't returned. That worthless Xu Weilin-what was he? I, Zhang Yicheng, simply couldn't be bothered to compete for the position of Senior Brother. Otherwise, how could it ever have been his turn?"

Zhang Yicheng's face was full of arrogance.

"Oh, your surname is Zhang. Is that old man Zhang Xinyi your son?"

"How dare you! He's my grandfather." Zhang Yicheng's expression darkened, and his voice instantly turned icy.

"Ah, the white-haired sending off the black-haired. One of life's greatest sorrows."

Xia Yu sighed softly.

"You want to kill me? What an outrageous joke! Hahaha..."

Suddenly, his laughter cut off.

A finger abruptly appeared against the space between Zhang Yicheng's brows.

Smiling, Xia Yu said, "Go on, laugh. Why aren't you laughing anymore?"

Zhang Yicheng's expression changed drastically. He had not even seen how Xia Yu had attacked!

He was at the half-step emperor realm!

And he could step into the emperor realm at any moment.

Bang!

Before he could speak, his head exploded!

One finger, one headshot!

Xia Yu reached into Zhang Yicheng's robes, took out his Heaven and Earth Bag, and tossed it straight into the Heaven-Incinerating Furnace.

Suddenly, he realized that the clothes this fellow was wearing were actually a treasure too.

A defensive king weapon.

Without another word, he stripped it off as fast as lightning. His eyes lit up again. There was even a suit of inner armor underneath!

Without the slightest hesitation, Xia Yu stripped him bare.

"How dare you desecrate Junior Brother Zhang's corpse!"

A furious roar came from afar.

A figure landed in the square.
