Chen Honghu's actions clearly shocked the cultivators of the Southern Heaven Great Domain, but they could do nothing for him and could only continue to sigh in disbelief.
Many cultivators looked at Chen Honghu with pity, because no matter how shocking his actions were, his fate was predictable!
Because the Imperial Lord- level expert who had just made his move now had a hint of anger on his face.
Chen Honghu's prowess only serves to highlight his incompetence!
Despite being a whole realm above his opponent, he couldn't defeat him in a single blow, leaving the Imperial Lord- level expert feeling utterly humiliated.
If a mere Early Saint Venerable were to escape from his grasp, he would become a laughingstock in the Southern Heaven Great Domain.
No need to even think about it; otherwise, he won't be able to stay in the Southern Heaven Great Domain anymore!
At this thought, the powerful Imperial Lord expert was completely enraged, and he decided that this time he was going to get serious!
"Boom!"
The terrifying fluctuation of spiritual energy vanished directly into the void, and the next second it appeared above Chen Honghu's head as he was escaping.
By this time, some people had already recognized the identity of the powerful Imperial Lord who had made the move; he came from a sect that was among the top ten in the Southern Heaven Great Domain's Strength Ranking.
That sect even has a powerful expert who is Half-Step Immortal!
This is why no one is willing to take action.
No one wants to offend such a behemoth sect for the sake of such an ordinary teenager!
Amidst the sighs of the crowd, time suddenly stopped.
Yes, everything suddenly froze for a moment, a moment so brief that many people didn't even have time to react.
At that very instant, a black light flashed above Chen Honghu's head.
The black light moved at an extremely fast speed, almost approaching the speed of light, and shattered the attack of the Imperial Lord expert with lightning speed.
"Boom... Boom... Boom..."
A series of Hongmeng sounds echoed behind Chen Honghu.
"Boom!"
Finally, a deafening sound rang out. Chen Honghu turned around in disbelief, only to see a firework blooming in the void.
The Imperial Lord -level expert who had just made his move had vanished.
Needless to say, the firework in the sky just now was produced by the explosion of that Imperial Lord- level expert, and all the cultivators present were stunned for a moment.
explode?
Why did that Imperial Lord expert suddenly explode?
They looked at each other, completely bewildered as to what had happened in that brief moment.
Not to mention them, even Chen Honghu, who was not far away, didn't understand what had happened.
Chen Honghu had thought he was doomed, but that Imperial Lord expert actually... self-destructed?
That's right. When it comes to explosions, if we exclude attacks from other people, the only reason that can cause an explosion is self-destruction.
But why would that powerful Imperial Lord- level expert self-destruct?
At this moment, apart from the powerful cultivators at the Half-Step Immortal level present, no other cultivators knew what had happened.
However, it didn't take long for people to realize what was happening.
All eyes began to focus on the dark figure at the gate of the Land of the Extreme Dao city.
To their surprise, the dark figure spoke quickly, in a hoarse and cold voice.
"When the Land of the Extreme Dao opens, it is forbidden to attempt to seize the Primordial Token!"
That one short sentence explained everything that had just happened.
Clearly, it was this shadowy figure who made the move.
A brief silence fell over the starry sky.
After a moment, an old man came out.
The old man had a goatee, small eyes, and looked somewhat shrewd. When he spoke, his words carried an indescribable slickness.
"Your Excellency just made a sudden move without warning, killing our Xuanxing Sect's Imperial Lord- level expert directly. Isn't that a bit too domineering?"
As he spoke, the old man released his aura.
A powerful figure who Half-Step Immortal!
This old man was actually the Half-Step Immortal powerhouse from the Xuanxing Sect!
Countless cultivators fell silent once again; it seemed their opponent had met their match this time!
To be honest, although they felt that the methods of the Imperial Lord- level expert from the Xuanxing Sect were a bit excessive, the fact that this black shadow attacked without warning seemed to be about the same.
Before the Land of the Extreme Dao, the dark figure slightly raised its head upon hearing this.
A streak of blood-red light appeared in those dark eyes, flashed briefly, and then disappeared.
"We hope Your Excellency will give Xuanxing Sect an explanation!" the old man with a goatee continued.
However, the next explosion rang out again in the starry sky.
"Bang!"
"Boom... Boom... Boom..."
Waves of spiritual energy spread outwards, and in the blink of an eye, the old man with the goatee also exploded.
As a powerful expert who had reached the Half-Step Immortal, the explosion of his spiritual power was no small matter. The surrounding cultivators retreated hundreds of miles almost instantly, fearing that they would be affected by it.
However, what they did this time was really unnecessary.
A dark figure not far away raised and clenched his hand, compressing the space and quickly dissolving all the spiritual energy fluctuations.
The vast starry sky fell silent once more.
It's not that the onlookers were silent for so long; it's just that... they didn't know what to say!
Countless creatures stared blankly at the scene before them, many of them even secretly pinching their thighs, simply unable to believe it was real.
However, the excruciating pain in their legs constantly reminded them that this was real!
A powerful expert who was on the verge of Half-Step Immortal was killed in such a casual way!
Even the aftershocks of the explosion were easily suppressed.
All eyes instinctively turned to the Primordial Rankings not far away.
On the Southern Heaven Great Domain Sect Faction Ranking, Xuanxing Sect, which was originally ranked tenth, has instantly fallen to twenty-first place, a drop of eleven places!
Everything before their eyes told them that what had just happened was real!
The strongest member of the Xuanxing Sect has fallen!
While countless cultivators were still in shock, the dark figure remained unmoved, standing motionless before the city gate.
"Huh?"
The shadowy figure suddenly noticed something and became somewhat interested in it.
In the very center of the explosion site, a tiny walking stick was left behind.
If the people of the Xuanxing Sect saw it, they would naturally recognize it as a magical artifact crafted by their ancestor.
The shadowy figure seemed more interested in the miniature cane, and with a flick of its wrist, it sent the cane flying toward it.
The other cultivators of the Xuanxing Sect watched helplessly as their ancestor's cane was taken away, but they couldn't say anything.
Because it was that dark figure who killed their ancestor with a single strike!
