Chapter 3767: Instant Kill


    The Wukun Master let out a gentle sigh. “Look at the situation. Are you still clinging onto delusions? Immortal Exalt Tan Yu, unless you request the experts of the Merchant Union of Star Brilliance to intervene, your death is guaranteed today.”


    “But ording to my understanding, whenever the Merchant Union of Star Brilliance intervenes, they will take the hidden karmic ties and the connections to various organisations into ount to estimate the price required. Now that the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment is taking part, it’s impossible for your Immortal Rising City to possess the leverage to rope the Merchant Union of Star Brilliance into this.”


    The Wukun Master looked at Immortal Exalt Tan Yu like he was looking at a pitiful insect. His gaze was filled with sympathy.


    His gaze made Immortal Exalt Tan Yu feel particrly insulted. Fury rose up inside him as his killing intent surged.


    “Wukun Master, this originally had nothing to do with your Sword Sect of Mount Kun. Since you insist on getting involved, you better not me me for being merciless. If I manage to survive today, I’ll definitely tten your Sword Sect of Mount Kun in the future,” Immortal Exalt Tan Yu said frigidly.


    “Unfortunately, you’re definitely going to die today. There are no other possible scenarios. You’re destined to never tten the Sword Sect of Mount Kun.” The Wukun Master’s tone became icy. He closed his hand; a blinding sword silently appeared.


    When he looked at the high quality god artifact sword in his hand, the Wukun Master’s eyes were filled with affection. The sword in his hand was a high quality god artifact. He had gone all out to forge this sword. He spent all of his wealth and spent several hundred thousand years before gathering all of the materials to forge this sword.


    From the moment the sword was forged, he treated it like his daughter, cherishing and loving it.


    The sword also happened to be the only god artifact on him.In order to forge the sword, he had sold all of the god artifacts on him. He even used up more than half of the Sword Sect of Mount Kun’s resources.


    “I named this sword Heaven-lifting, as I will lift up the heavens of our Sword Sect of Mount Kun with this sword. Ever since this sword was forged, it has never been used to kill anyone. Why don’t I use your life to baptise my Heaven-lifting sword today?”


    “Using the blood and soul of a Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt to baptise this sword is without a doubt a good omen. My Heaven-lifting sword is destined to shine across the entire Hall Brilliance Heaven in the future,” the Wukun Master said slowly. As he said that, the sword in his hand erupted with blinding light. The pressure of a high quality god artifact waspletely unleashed, filling the wilderness.


    “Hahahaha, looks like someone has already run out of patience.” The Void-perceiving Ancestor chuckled. He gripped the Heaven-locking Chains as he stared at Immortal Exalt Tan Yu. He aimed to prevent him from escaping.


    Immortal Exalt Tan Yu squinted his eyes slightly. His lips curled into a slight smile before he suddenly said to the empty air, “Fellow, it’ll all be up to you now.”


    The Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master narrowed their eyes slightly and immediately raised their guard. The powerful senses of their souls swept through the surroundings again and again, carrying out a fine search, but they found nothing at all.


    At this moment, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu flipped his hand. A set of formation banners appeared in his hand, radiating with powerful pulses of energy.


    The formation banners rushed into the air and wove with light, directly condensing a huge formation that enveloped several hundred kilometres.


    The interior of the formation seemed like a space of its own,pletely cutting off the outside world.


    The formation was the obscuring formation that Immortal Exalt Tan Yu had carefully prepared ording to Jian Chen’s request.


    The formation was incapable of offence or defence. Its only function was to obscure everything that urred within it.


    “Something is off. Be careful!” The Void-perceiving Ancestor was startled and immediately warned the Wukun Master.


    The Wukun Master squinted his eyes. Sharp light flickered in them. Powerful Laws of the Sword revolved around him. At that moment, the energy around him was already circting at high speeds. His presence rose to the peak. He was ready to unleash a startling strike at any moment.


    “Immortal Exalt Tan Yu, back out of the formation. Remember, do not look into the formation.” Jian Chen’s voice rang out once again, but he did not hide it this time, so the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master also heard him loud and clear.


    The Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master’s faces immediately changed, but in the next moment, a spatial barrier directly took shape, enveloping the region.


    In the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master’s view, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu had already vanished, having been blocked out by the spatial barrier.


    “These Laws of Space clearly have not reached Immortal Exalt?” Immortal Exalt Tan Yu gazed deeply at the spatial barrier before him. Without any hesitation, he drifted backwards and left the range of the obscuring formation in just two steps.


    Outside the formation, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu turned around and faced the obscuring formation. The light in his eyes leapt about.


    He had arranged the formation using formation banners. If he wanted to, he could find out about everything urring inside with a single thought. However, he could only hold back his curiosity without witnessing everything unfolding inside due to Jian Chen’s instructions.


    “<em>Hopefully, fellow Yang Yutian can really bring me a miracle,</em>” Immortal Exalt Tan Yu prayed inside.


    The Wukun Master sneered inside the spatial barrier. “I could destroy a mere Immortal Emperor’s spatial formation in the blink of an eye. Hiding away? Get out here for me.” With his bellow, his Heaven-lifting sword immediately erupted with powerful light. He was about to sh out.


    But suddenly, a strand of sword Qi that was even sharper than the Wukun Master’s appeared in the space before him, shooting over with unbelievable speed.


    The Wukun Master narrowed his eyes. In his view, the sword Qi that was only the size of a finger shone with blinding light. It seemed to pierce through time and bypass space, shooting over with lightning speed.


    Faced with the sword Qi, even someone as powerful as the Wukun Master could not dodge in time because it moved far too quickly. Time and distance did not seem to exist at all before it. It emerged in an instant and arrived at the same moment.


    “<em>I can’t dodge it. I can’t block it. I can only endure it!</em>” As soon as that thought crossed the Wukun Master’s head, the finger-sized sword Qi breached his protective energy and shot right into his forehead.


    He let out a grunt and swayed violently. The energy around him flickered unsteadily, fading in and out.


    The sword Qi breached all of the Wukun Master’s defences, piercing viciously into his soul like a needle. Excruciating pain filled his head. His face immediately paled slightly.


    This was Jian Chen’s Profound Sword Qi!


    However, the Wukun Master was a Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt after all. His soul was far stronger than any Immortal Emperor’s, so Jian Chen’s Profound Sword Qi was still not powerful enough to injure his soul. It could only leave him with some scratches, making him dazed for a moment.


    At this moment, the Wukun Master only felt his head spin. His eyes ckened as he temporarily lost his senses of the outside world.


    It was merely a split second, but this split second was enough to determine the oue of the battle.


    At this moment, surging demon Qi appeared, turning into a ck cloud that wormed into the Wukun Master’s forehead.


    “<em>Hehehehe, a Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt. Not bad, not bad. Let me devour your soul, and I should be able to recover some strength.</em>” The Thousand Soul Demon Exalt’s ruthlessughter rang out from the ck cloud.


    “Argh! Get yourself out of here!” The Wukun Master let out a pained roar. He clutched his head; he was stern. Sharp sword Qi surged through his eyes at times but ck demonic mes leapt around at other times as well.


    His soul had already turned into a precarious battleground by now.


    At the same time, the space above the Wukun Master split open. Several tiny tendrils emerged, turning into sharp swords that pierced the Wukun Master’s organs, dantian, and head simultaneously while pulsing with surging energy.


    The Wukun Master waspletely defenceless. As such, when the vines pierced his organs and dantian, his body copsed. It waspletely destroyed, so only his head remained.


    But shortly afterwards, the Immortal Devouring Orchid’s vines pierced his head with ease, immediately splitting the Wukun Master’s soul in half.


    “Argh!” The Wukun Master’s soul let out a miserable howl. He had not perishedpletely yet, but shortly afterwards, the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt lunged over as a ck cloud, swallowing his soul instantly.


    The Wukun Master’s howls came to a halt. Only the ck cloud that the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt had turned into remained mid-air, churning away violently.


    “Ahh, how pleasant. It’s basically a tremendous amount of nourishment. I’ve recovered quite a lot of strength in such a short time.” The Thousand Soul Demon Exalt’s voice rang out from the ck cloud, filled with delight and satisfaction.


    Meanwhile, the Wukun Master had already vanished from the worldpletely. He was dead.


    Jian Chen, the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt, and the Immortal Devouring Orchid struck at the same time, paving open a path with the Profound Sword Qi to strike first. In an instant, they hadpletely imed the life of a Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt!


    The Void-perceiving Ancestor was frightened out of his wits after witnessing this. He was ovee with both shock and fury.


    "Y-you…" The Void-perceiving Ancestor widened his eyes to the point where they seemed like they were about to fall out of their sockets. He was left tongue-tied and stuttering.


    It was far too shocking. In an instant, the Wukun Master who possessed the same cultivation as him had died. He had died so quickly that he could not even return to his senses. The Void-perceiving Ancestor did not even have the time to provide assistance.
