Chapter 35: Yun Changkong, Dead!
Chapter 35: Yun Changkong, Dead!
"That's Shen Tonghai, the Eight-Armed Ape!"
"Hisss—"
When they saw Gu Qingfeng strike down Shen Tonghai with lightning speed, many faces turned to horror.
Shen Tonghai, the Eight-Armed Ape!
He was a renowned martial artist in the world of the jianghu.
Though not a top-tier expert, his cultivation had long reached the mid-stage of Blood Refinement, yet he couldn't withstand a single breath from Gu Qingfeng.
Such power.
It was truly shocking.
Yun Tianxing's pupils constricted, and his face turned furious.
"Gu Qingfeng, you dare to kill here!"
Gu Qingfeng sneered.
"You all gathered here to kill me. What's wrong with me killing you? Do you expect me to just bow my head and accept my fate?"
His words hung in the air.
Yun Tianxing's eyes darkened. "You first exterminated the Qin family, and now you kill Grandmaster Shen in broad daylight. How can I let you leave Tianyun Sect alive?"
With that, Yun Tianxing looked at the others.
"Today, I ask all of you to join me in suppressing this demon—"
"Yun Tianxing, if you want to fight, why call for others? Let me see the strength of the Tianyun Sect Master!"
Before Yun Tianxing could finish his sentence, Gu Qingfeng interrupted, his powerful aura erupting as he thrust a palm toward Yun Tianxing. A terrifying wave of heat surged forth, causing the latter's face to pale.
Immediately,
Yun Tianxing activated his own aura, his body becoming as pure as jade. Then, his sword unsheathed, a white streak sliced through the air, the faint sword shadows blurring the line between reality and illusion.
The Tianyun Body Refinement Technique!
The Tianyun Sword Technique!
These were the two greatest techniques of Tianyun Sect.
As the sect's master, Yun Tianxing naturally mastered both.
The others watched in shock, especially at the sharp sword qi that could make their skin tingle even from a distance.
However,
As Gu Qingfeng's palm thrust forward, all the sword shadows suddenly dissipated. He grabbed the sword in his hand, and the mid-grade divine weapon, which could cut through iron like butter, failed to penetrate his palm's defense.
With a powerful grip, Gu Qingfeng crushed the sword, which let out a mournful cry as it shattered.
The force from the shattered blade caused Yun Tianxing's tiger mouth to split, his face changing once more.
"Go!"
Gu Qingfeng casually flicked his wrist, sending several iron shards slicing through the air. They instantly broke through Yun Tianxing's physical defenses, blossoming into several blood flowers on his body.
Then,
He took another step forward, his large hand pressing down on Yun Tianxing.
The terrifying might made Yun Tianxing's face turn to fear.
"Stop—"
A furious voice echoed, but Gu Qingfeng paid no heed. His hand landed on Yun Tianxing, breaking the bones of the latter's defending arms into several pieces. The remaining force struck his chest, causing it to cave in, and he fell to the ground, dead in an instant.
"You're courting death!!"
Yun Changkong erupted in rage, his powerful aura bursting like smoke. His sword, gleaming and cold, stabbed toward Gu Qingfeng's back.
Gu Qingfeng, as if sensing it all along, suddenly turned, flicking his finger to deflect the sword. He then thrust another palm toward Yun Changkong's center, the scorching aura forcing the latter to defend.
From Gu Qingfeng's first move to Yun Tianxing's defeat, and then to Yun Changkong's attack, everything happened in a split second.
As Gu Qingfeng and Yun Changkong clashed, the others finally snapped out of their shock.
Seeing Yun Tianxing, whose chest was caved in and who had already died, most of the people present turned pale.
Yun Tianxing's strength was among the top three of all the martial artists present.
Such a powerful opponent had been subdued by Gu Qingfeng in a single move.
The others were stunned by his strength.
However, some who had witnessed Gu Qingfeng's killing of the Qin family's patriarch were not as shocked.
After all, the Qin family patriarch had been defeated by Gu Qingfeng with overwhelming force, so it was no surprise that Yun Tianxing, who was weaker, would meet the same fate.
At that moment, everyone's gaze turned to the arena.
Gu Qingfeng and Yun Tianxing were enveloped in a swirling mass of blood energy, making it impossible to see what was happening inside. Occasionally, flashes of sword light and waves of heat could be seen.
The intense, fiery energy made people think of something.
"Blazing Sun Palm!"
"Gu Qingfeng has mastered the Blazing Sun Palm!"
"Rumors say that when the Blazing Sun Palm is cultivated to a high level, it can produce a Blazing Sun Palm Force, making one's blood and qi as hot as flames. I never thought Gu Qingfeng would not only obtain the Blazing Sun Palm but also reach such a profound level in such a short time—"
An old veteran martial artist spoke with a look of shock, as if he had just realized something.
In the past, the Blazing Sun Immortal was renowned, and the Blazing Sun Palm he created was well-known in the martial world. Although not many people knew the specifics of this martial art, it was certainly not unknown.
Hearing this, the others' expressions changed once more.
It had only been three years since Gu Qingfeng obtained the Blazing Sun Palm.
In just three years, he had cultivated this formidable technique to such a profound level.
Such talent left them all in awe.
At that moment, the battle in the arena took a turn. The rolling blood energy surged and seemed to converge into a towering inferno that erupted with a booming sound. Then, a sword hummed, and a figure was sent flying.
Had the battle been decided?
Everyone looked at the figure that had been sent flying, trying to see who had been defeated.
When they recognized the fallen figure, their faces turned even paler.
"Yun Changkong!"
The current Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Cloud Sect had a scorched palm print on his chest, and blood was flowing from his nose and mouth.
"Cough, cough!"
Yun Changkong struggled to his feet, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at Gu Qingfeng.
"Blazing Sun Palm Force... I never thought you would cultivate the Blazing Sun Palm to such a level... Spurt!"
Yun Changkong's words were cut short as he spat out another mouthful of blood and fell heavily to the ground, silent and motionless.
That single palm strike had shattered all of his internal organs.
Only the powerful vitality of a fully cultivated Blood Essence realm practitioner had kept him from dying instantly.
With Yun Changkong's demise, Gu Qingfeng stood there, his green robe unblemished and without a scratch on him. He glanced coldly at the corpse on the ground, then turned to look at the others.
"Is there anyone else who wishes to challenge me?"
His words hung in the air, and the entire arena fell silent.
No one dared to speak.
The Heavenly Cloud Sect, whose leader and Supreme Elder had both been killed, knew that if they were to act, they would likely meet the same fate.
The remaining Heavenly Cloud Sect elders could only seethe with anger, but they dared not voice it.
