The enormous shadow of the Heaven-Reaching Ancient Vine coiled layer upon layer in the void, a dark and heavy aura permeating the ancient tendrils. The transport vehicle hovered between the vine domains, with ten escorting cultivators standing guard around the vehicle formation, while the three Holy Clan assassins were completely surrounded in the center.
The murderous intent in the air grew stronger, and even the stardust flowing among the vines seemed to freeze.
At that very moment, one of the Holy Clan cultivators at the Realm Breaking Realm · Supreme was finally enraged by Qin Yu. His eyes turned bloodshot, his spiritual power surged wildly within him, and he erupted with a terrifying aura like a volcano that had been ignited. He took a sudden step forward, his roar echoing throughout the Vine Domain: "Even if I'm robbing a caravan—I'll kill you first!"
The moment he finished speaking, his right hand shot up. "Divine Power— Hand of Shattering Realms!"
In an instant, his palm seemed to become the center of heaven and earth. Countless fine cracks suddenly appeared in his palm, as if spreading out from the depths of the void, densely packed like a spider web, rapidly spreading and covering tens of thousands of feet of space in an instant.
He slowly closed his five fingers. "Boom--!" The heavens and earth suddenly trembled.
The entire space, like a giant mirror, began to peel away piece by piece. Countless spatial fragments detached from the void, scattering in all directions like shattered glass. The spatial barriers between the vines were forcibly torn apart, and turbulent chaotic currents were revealed at the edges of the broken realms. These currents rolled in the void like a raging Sea of Form, devouring everything in their path.
The area where Qin Yu was located suddenly collapsed.
Spatial dimensions collapsed rapidly under the control of that hand, boundaries vanished, and orientation crumbled. The concepts of distance and ins and outs ceased to exist between heaven and earth, leaving only an absolute void like a black hole. Fragments of shattered spacetime were sucked into a swirling vortex, finally dissipating with a sudden clench of that hand—
The entire universe shattered!
The instant this terrifying divine power was fully formed, the Holy Clan cultivator at the Mystic Void Realm Initial Stage's expression changed drastically. He roared angrily, "Stop! Calm down—!"
However, it was all too late.
At that very moment, a cold glint flashed in Qin Yu's eyes, and he shouted suddenly, "Quick! Fellow Daoists—they're trying to rob the caravan!"
These words ignited the entire venue like a flame.
Shen Qingchen barely hesitated, his aura at the Realm Breaking Realm · Supreme erupting forth, the spear in his hand transforming into a silver lightning bolt piercing the starry sky. "You're courting death!"
At the same time, the other six escorting cultivators also made their move.
A cultivator at the Mystic Void Realm condensed divine light in his palm, and a giant golden sword emerged from the sky, its Sword Qi tearing through the vine domain; another cultivator unleashed a massive spiritual seal, its shadow descending from the sky like a mountain; several divine powers erupted simultaneously, and blade light, sword shadow, lightning, and array patterns intertwined in the void to form a destructive storm.
"Boom--!!" Several divine powers struck the "Hand of Shattering Realms" almost simultaneously.
The space suddenly shattered.
The giant hand that had been shattering countless worlds was instantly torn apart by the combined attack of the six cultivators. Spatial fragments scattered and flew everywhere, and the chaotic currents were forcibly pushed back into the void. Before the cultivator at the Realm Breaking Realm · Supreme could react, he was completely swallowed up by the terrifying torrent of divine power.
"Boom--!" A burst of light erupted.
When the spiritual light dissipated, the Holy Clan cultivator was left without even a trace of his soul; he was completely Annihilation, and even the trace of his existence was erased.
The air fell silent for a moment.
Qin Yu didn't stop. His gaze turned cold, and he immediately spoke again, "Fellow Daoists—kill Annihilation and the others directly! Don't let them use their voice transmission to attract other ambushers!"
Shen Qingchen was now completely enraged. He pointed his spear at the remaining two men, his voice booming like thunder. "That's right! Brother Qin is right! They must just be scouts!"
His aura surged wildly. "We must Annihilation them quickly!"
The remaining six escorting cultivators also activated their divine abilities once more, their powerful spiritual energy condensing in the void, and a terrifying pressure bearing down on the remaining two Holy Clan cultivators.
The Holy Clan cultivator at the Mystic Void Realm Initial Stage had a distorted expression. His eyes were bloodshot, and his spiritual power was burning wildly. He looked like a ferocious beast driven to the brink of despair.
"Damn it—!!" he roared, his voice filled with madness. "I'll fight you to the death!!"
He stared intently at Qin Yu, his eyes filled with resentment and murderous intent, as if he wanted to devour Qin Yu alive.
The shadows of the Heaven-Reaching Ancient Vine swayed in the starry sky, their enormous tendrils coiling between heaven and earth like an ancient dragon. The transport vehicle hovered in the center of the vine domain, its array patterns constantly swirling with light, while the ten escorting cultivators surrounding the vehicle were fully prepared for battle.
Seeing his companion instantly annihilated, the Holy Clan cultivator at the Mystic Void Realm Initial Stage went completely berserk. His eyes turned bloodshot, and his spiritual power surged like a volcano. He roared to the sky, his voice echoing throughout the Vine Domain: "Since that's how it is—then we'll all die together!!"
The next instant, the source energy within him suddenly ignited. Boom--!
A terrifying aura erupted from his body, distorting the surrounding space. The power gained by the Mystic Void Realm expert burning his source increased several times in an instant, and a violent storm of spiritual energy swirled around him, like a star collapsing.
At the same time, the remaining Holy Clan cultivator at the Realm Breaking Realm · Supreme also suddenly looked up, his eyes slowly opening.
"Supernatural Power - Pupils of Dao Breaking!"
His pupils turned completely chaotic at this moment, as if countless worlds were being born and destroyed in his eyes. Deep within his eyes, countless lines of rules appeared and then collapsed, as if the laws of the universe were being constantly dismantled and reassembled in his eyes.
His gaze swept across the void.
In an instant, countless ripples spread through the space.
Under that gaze, the array patterns, runes, and magic array structures around the transport vehicle gradually took shape, like a skeleton of rules forcibly stripped away. The rune lines trembled in the void, then crumbled inch by inch, tearing apart like paper being shredded.
His gaze finally settled on Qin Yu.
At that moment, Qin Yu felt as if his existence was being directly spied upon by some force. The foundations of cause and effect, memories, and cultivation seemed to be peeled away layer by layer, the rules binding the surrounding world began to loosen, and the order of all things was slowly collapsing.
At the same time, the Mystic Void Realm Holy Clan cultivator had completely transformed into a figure as swift as the wind.
"Supernatural Power - Wind of the Boundless Realm!" Boom! An invisible wind suddenly swept across the starry sky.
His body seemed to merge completely into the void, and an elusive storm surged around him. The wind was deep and ancient, like a whisper from ancient times. Wherever the storm passed, space began to distort and blur, and boundaries gradually disappeared.
The wind carried countless fragments of shattered laws, shimmering like stardust.
The fragments kept colliding, breaking everything around them down into tiny specks of light.
The storm hurtled towards Qin Yu! Qin Yu's pupils contracted slightly, and he immediately raised his hand to use his supernatural power to defend himself.
A protective divine light instantly unfolded around him, and spatial power condensed into several layers of barriers, attempting to block the terrifying storm. However, the Wind of the Boundless Realm seemed capable of blowing away all boundaries, and the protective light screen quickly blurred in the wind, while the barrier of rules was torn apart bit by bit.
Boom! In the next instant, the storm crashed into Qin Yu.
His figure was suddenly thrown away by that force, and he flew backwards for dozens of feet like a kite with a broken string, leaving a long trajectory in the void of the Vine Domain.
"Brother Qin!!" Shen Qingchen's voice suddenly rang out.
He watched helplessly as Qin Yu was sent flying, his face instantly turning incredibly grim. "Damn the Holy Clan!!"
Shen Qingchen roared, unleashing the full power of his Realm Breaking Realm · Supreme. He pointed his spear at the two Holy Clan cultivators, his voice echoing through the starry sky with fury:
"Robbing a caravan is one thing, but to claim it's only targeting Brother Qin is ridiculous!"
He suddenly took a step forward. "Two Realm Breaking Realm · Supreme Mystic Void Realm Initial Stage— "
"What is this if not a robbery?!"
Shen Qingchen shouted angrily, "Brother Qin is only at the Realm Breaking Realm · Middle Stage! Yet you three ganged up on him! You're clearly spies trying to rob the caravan!!"
He swung his spear fiercely. "Fellow Daoists!! Attack together— Annihilation them instantly!!"
This sentence completely ignited everyone's anger.
The remaining six escorting cultivators had no more doubts at this point.
They witnessed Qin Yu being sent flying, and the Holy Clan cultivator was clearly targeting him. Three powerful figures ganging up on a Realm Breaking Realm · Middle Stage —what else could they be but spies robbing a caravan?
The six of them unleashed their spiritual power simultaneously. The starry sky was instantly illuminated by the light of their divine abilities. Shen Qingchen made the first move.
"Divine Power, Star-Splitting Spear Shadows!"
His spear transformed into a silver meteor, its light tearing through the void. Hundreds of spear shadows intertwined in the air, like a stellar storm crashing towards the Holy Clan cultivator.
Another Mystic Void Realm cultivator raised his hand to form a hand seal.
"Divine Power, Mountain Suppression Heavenly Seal!"
A massive golden seal descended from the sky, its shadow pressing down like a mountain, causing the space beneath it to continuously collapse.
The third cultivator unleashed a cyan longsword.
"Divine Power, Ten Thousand Blades Return to Heaven!"
The sword light instantly transformed into thousands upon thousands of sharp points, sweeping down from the sky. The other three also unleashed their supernatural powers at the same time.
Thunder like a dragon, flames like a sea, and array patterns like chains—six terrifying forces converged in the void to form a destructive torrent.
Before the Holy Clan cultivator at the Realm Breaking Realm · Supreme could react, he was engulfed by the torrent of divine power.
"BOOM--!!" The space completely shattered.
At this moment, the Pupils of Dao Breaking suddenly collapsed. His eyes exploded, and chaotic light scattered everywhere. His body was torn into countless pieces in the storm of divine power, leaving not even a trace of his soul behind.
On the other side, the Xuan Mystic Void Realm cultivator who had burned his own essence was still roaring madly.
"I'll fight you to the death!!" But before his voice could even ring out, the six supernatural powers descended simultaneously.
The spear's edge pierced his chest, the sword's light severed his body, and the Heavenly Seal pressed down.
Thunder, flames, and array patterns erupted simultaneously, boom--!!!
A terrifying energy storm swept across the entire Vine Domain, and when the light dissipated, the Profound Mystic Void Realm Holy Clan cultivator had completely vanished.
Physical body, Fate Soul, traces of existence—all were erased Annihilation. The Heaven-Piercing Ancient Vine Star Domain returned to its deathly silence.
Only the transport vehicle remained, suspended in the void, its array patterns slowly flowing.
The Heaven-Piercing Ancient Vine Star Domain returned to a brief silence. The aftershocks of the devastating divine attack were still slowly spreading in the void. Shattered spatial cracks hung like spider webs between the vines, and were then slowly repaired by the rules of the starry sky.
The transport vehicle remained suspended in place, its array patterns shimmering. Of the ten escorting cultivators, only eight remained around the vehicle array.
Shen Qingchen had already quickly sheathed his spear and hurried to Qin Yu's side, his expression filled with obvious worry. Everyone had clearly seen the scene where Qin Yu was blasted away head-on by the Wind of the Boundless Realm. With Qin Yu's cultivation at the "Realm Breaking Realm · Middle Stage,"
It's a miracle he survived such supernatural power. Shen Qingchen reached out to support Qin Yu and asked anxiously, "Brother Qin, how are your injuries?"
Qin Yu feigned a light cough, a trace of blood even trickling from the corner of his mouth. He appeared to be breathing erratically, as if he had barely managed to steady himself. He slowly waved his hand, his voice slightly weak. "I'm fine... I can still hold on."
He seemed unsteady on his feet as he spoke, as if he might collapse again at any moment. Shen Qingchen's brows furrowed even more. Just as he was about to ask a few more questions, he suddenly noticed that Qin Yu's gaze seemed to be intentionally or unintentionally drifting towards a distance not far away.
The two Realm Breaking Realm · Supreme cultivators who had remained silent were now standing at the edge of the group. They had not made a move since the start of the battle.
Qin Yu's gaze lingered on the two of them for a moment. His gaze seemed casual, but it clearly carried a deliberate meaning—as if he were reminding them of something, or perhaps hinting at something.
Shen Qingchen instantly noticed this subtle movement.
Just then, Qin Yu suddenly lowered his head slightly, as if adjusting his breathing, while an extremely concealed divine sense transmission quietly entered Shen Qingchen's ears.
"Brother Shen." Shen Qingchen was slightly taken aback.
Qin Yu's voice softly echoed in his mind, "Just now... didn't they refrain from making a move the whole time?"
These words were like a cold wind, and Shen Qingchen's pupils suddenly contracted.
He suddenly recalled the battle just now, from the appearance of the three Holy Clan assassins, to the clash of supernatural powers, and then to the final two being surrounded and killed... those two Realm Breaking Realm · Supreme cultivators had actually been standing in the back the whole time.
Without making a move or even a fluctuation of his aura, Shen Qingchen's expression instantly darkened.
He slowly turned his head to look at the two people. His voice suddenly turned icy. "You two—"
Shen Qingchen took a step forward, his gaze locking onto the two of them like a knife. "Why didn't you make a move just now?" The air fell silent for a moment.
Shen Qingchen's voice carried a clear accusation. "From the beginning to the end, you two stood behind and watched the appearance of the three members of the Holy Clan."
His tone grew colder and colder. "What exactly are you two doing?" As soon as he finished speaking, the other escorting cultivators immediately realized what was going on.
All six of them turned their gazes to the Realm Breaking Realm · Supreme cultivators, and the previously relaxed atmosphere tensed up again. They spread out in unison, their spiritual energy circulating quietly, clearly already on high alert.
At this moment, Qin Yu slowly straightened up, and his previous weak appearance seemed to have recovered somewhat.
He gently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then his gaze fell on the two people. Qin Yu's voice was calm, but it carried an undeniable meaning.
"Actually, I was just thinking about something." All eyes turned to him again.
Qin Yu slowly said, "Just now, the two of you remained silent." He gently pointed at the two men. "And you didn't make a move either."
Qin Yu's tone gradually became meaningful. "From the moment the team assembled, you haven't communicated with anyone. You haven't communicated with us either."
The air suddenly became heavy. Qin Yu continued, "Thinking about it now... it really is strange."
He narrowed his eyes slightly. "Could it be—" Qin Yu's voice suddenly turned cold. "You two are also their spies?"
These words were like a boulder dropped into water; the expressions of the other escorting cultivators instantly changed.
Shen Qingchen gripped his spear even tighter, his aura surging once more.
At the same time, the six cultivators in the group also moved closer to Qin Yu, their positions subtly forming a new formation, isolating the two Realm Breaking Realm · Supreme cultivators outside.
The atmosphere instantly tensed, and everyone's eyes were on the two people. At that moment, Qin Yu's eyes flickered slightly from an angle that no one noticed.
He chuckled coldly to himself. "Hmph." "Let's see how long you two can keep hiding."
