Listening to that furious voice, not only were other cultivators startled, but even Yang Zhen himself was taken aback. Looking towards the source of the sound, he saw an old face so gloomy it could drip water.
The first person to discover that Yang Zhen was Kuang Yang, this seemingly cheerful but actually wicked old man, no longer cared about his sanctimonious appearance. In his rage, he unleashed a violent wave of energy and charged madly towards Yang Zhen.
The people around were all stunned, especially the Mad Crone and others, whose faces were full of astonishment.
What grudge do you hold against me that your eyes turned red the moment you met?
The fact that a Half-Step Great Saint would react with such fury upon seeing a mere youth at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm Ninth Heavenly Layer, as if he had encountered his father's killer, is truly astonishing.
The other cultivators who were watching were also startled, their faces showing surprise and uncertainty. In particular, the cultivators around Yang Zhen all made way in a flash, and in just an instant, there was no one around Yang Zhen.
However, this was not the most surprising part. After Kuang Yang unleashed terrifying power and charged towards Yang Zhen, Xue Shou was beside Kuang Yang, also snorted coldly. The temperature of the surrounding world dropped to the extreme, causing the group of people to shiver violently.
Two Half-Step Great Saint!
The two Half-Step Great Saint, enraged, unleashed almost all the power within their bodies, creating raging waves of energy that swept towards Yang Zhen.
The Mad Crone and the others were startled, as if they had never seen Kuang Yang and Xue Shou so furious before, and as if they thought the two were using a feint. They frowned and became vigilant.
This is just too bizarre!
However, what surprised everyone even more was yet to come. The dozen or so Half-Step Great Saint who had come with Kuang Yang and Xue Shou all roared and charged towards Yang Zhen.
"You brat, you're really arrogant, daring to come here so disrespectfully. Where's that Heaven-Swallowing Hou? Bring it out right now, or you'll die a horrible death today."
Upon hearing Kuang Yang's words, everyone present was taken aback, their faces showing shock. The Mad Crone exclaimed, " Heaven-Swallowing Hou! No, impossible! How could there possibly be such a creature as Heaven-Swallowing Hou in this world?"
The red-faced Half-Step Great Saint also wore a shocked expression, staring at Yang Zhen with suspicion and uncertainty. He asked hesitantly, "Did you notice, Mad Crone, that this kid, whose cultivation is only at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm Ninth Heavenly Layer, doesn't seem to have any fear on his face?"
"This..." The Mad Crone squinted at Yang Zhen, then hesitated and said, "Is that really the case? Could it be that this kid has some powerful background, or is he protected by a powerful figure somewhere we don't know about?"
Is there a powerful protector?
After saying this, the Mad Crone shook her head.
Are you kidding me? What kind of powerful expert could protect a mere Celestial Phenomenon Realm Ninth Heavenly Layer cultivator from a dozen or so Half-Step Great Saint?
"What kind of grudge could possibly offend so many Half-Step Great Saint at once?"
The old man beside him pondered for a moment, then shook his head, his face full of absurdity.
"No matter what he has to rely on, he is doomed to die today!"
They were certain to die; this was the feeling of everyone present. Although Yang Zhen did not show any panic on his face, he was absolutely doomed.
Everyone stared in astonishment at the absurd scene unfolding before them, their gazes fixed on Yang Zhen.
The Shameless Cat looked at Yang Zhen speechlessly and asked, "What do we do? Looks like you still want to fight?"
Yang Zhen glanced at the swirling mist atop the summit, a sense of mystery welling up within him. He leisurely drew his Great Deficiency Sword and said, "Let's fight then. It'll be a good opportunity to see how much my strength has improved. We shouldn't be able to kill all these opponents in no time!"
Upon hearing Yang Zhen's almost naive words, everyone present nearly choked on their own saliva!
These are over a dozen Half-Step Great Saint, and Yang Zhen actually wants to kill them all?
Kuang Yang laughed heartily, his long sword flashing like a thunderbolt, causing a series of celestial phenomena with a thunderous roar, and shooting towards Yang Zhen from mid-air.
"Boy, you are the most arrogant and ignorant junior I have ever seen in my life. There are some people in this world that you cannot afford to offend."
Yang Zhen laughed heartily, his aura surging at an astonishing rate. His Great Deficiency Sword, Wu Guang, gleamed loudly. He nodded and said, "That's true. In this world, there are some people you can't understand, and some you can't hurt. From the moment you harmed the little girl, the Little Dao Addict, and this insignificant, Shameless Cat, you were destined... to die!"
boom--!
A deafening roar resounded, and a boundless, dark golden power erupted from Yang Zhen's body. The violent energy shot straight into the sky, accompanied by the earth-shattering roar of ferocious beasts. The illusory image of Qiongqi Heavenly Void, which blotted out the sun, appeared behind Yang Zhen.
"What... what kind of power is this?" The Mad Crone's face showed a look of absurdity, her expression full of shock and disbelief.
The next moment, everyone present widened their eyes and exclaimed in disbelief, " Qiongqi Heavenly Void!"
None of the people present had ever seen the Qiongqi Heavenly Void, yet over the years, everyone present was familiar with the legends surrounding the Qiongqi Heavenly Void's power of Heavenly Punishment.
This terrifying, world-destroying beast has now appeared before everyone in a different form; how could this not be astonishing?
Kuang Yang's eyes narrowed, a look of absurdity flashing across his face. He roared, "No, impossible! Who are you?"
Yang Zhen laughed loudly, and the Great Deficiency Sword in his hand suddenly shone with Wu Guang. With a roar, the violent power directly broke through the distance between the two and slammed the sword towards Kuang Yang!
After realizing what was happening, Kuang Yang's face twisted into a ferocious grin. With a maniacal laugh, he unleashed a devastating sword strike at Yang Zhen: "Boy, although I don't know why you can condense the phantom of Qiongqi Heavenly Void, your power is still far inferior. Today, I'll show you what a chasm between realms truly means!"
boom--!
The earth-shattering, violent clashes erupted, instantly changing the color of the sky and earth. The violent energy surged in all directions, causing everyone to sway unsteadily.
Everyone stared in horror at the numerous Half-Step Great Saint who were coldly observing them from mid-air. When they saw the incredulous look on the faces of those Half-Step Great Saint, they were all horrified!
Could it be... that Senior Kuang Yang has been defeated?
How is that possible? A Half-Step Great Saint could not possibly lose to a cultivator at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm Ninth Heavenly Layer, even with his eyes closed!
Just as everyone was filled with doubt and uncertainty, Kuang Yang's voice rang out. "Impossible, this is impossible! What kind of power is this? It's so strange, so... powerful!"
What power?
Could it be that Yang Zhen has mastered some even more powerful force?
At that moment, a figure fell from mid-air, blood splattering across the sky. This figure was missing an arm!
The entire audience erupted in uproar. No one had expected that Kuang Yang, a Half-Step Great Saint, would have his arm severed in a single exchange against a cultivator at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm Ninth Heavenly Layer!
"Next!"
Yang Zhen's voice came from mid-air, lazy and indifferent.
Just as everyone was taken aback and turned their gazes toward Xue Shou and the others, a cold snort came from the summit. Immediately afterward, the sky and earth changed color, the wind and clouds gathered, and the raging True Essence of heaven and earth within a radius of a thousand miles almost instantly boiled over.
Upon hearing this voice, everyone present, including many Half-Step Great Saint, turned pale!
Saint Realm!
