Chapter 542: No One Can Protect The Person I Want To Kill!
Those in the Divine Transformation Realm were said to have been living gods!
Each of them possessed some kind of unimaginably terrifying power!
Of course, not even those who were in the ninth tier of the Divine Transformation Realm were allowed to descend within the current environment.
Naturally, only those in the eighth tier of the Divine Treasure Realm were allowed to descend. If experts in the ninth tier of the Divine Treasure Realm wanted to descend, they had to pay a heavy price.
Therefore, many experts in the ninth tier of the Divine Treasure Realm had chosen to wait; the time for them to descend was fast approaching.
If they wanted to arrive a bit earlier than planned, they would’ve had to pay a huge price. It wouldn’t have been worth it.
That was why nobody expected Dan Chenzi to have already been half a step into the Divine Transformation Realm!
Even Zhang Qingming’s expression had changed. Although half a step in the Divine Transformation Realm was not actually in the Divine Transformation Realm, the combat strength at that level had completely surpassed that of the ninth tier of the Divine Treasure Realm.
At first, Zhang Qingming could have been on an equal footing with Dan Chenzi. Now that Dan Chenzi had made a breakthrough, however, he was no longer as confident in fighting Dan Chenzi, unless he too was also able to make a breakthrough.
This was a major difference!
What’s even more unexpected was that with such a level of cultivation, Dan Chenzi had been able to descend. The price he paid must’ve been much greater than the price that Zhang Qingming had paid. This showed that Yan Han’s desire to kill Lu Xuan could never die out.
Zhang Qingming said to the disciples of WuTang Clan next to him, “I’m afraid it will be hard for Lu Xuan to protect himself this time. He doesn’t stand a chance against someone who’s half a step in the Divine Transformation Realm. It will be amazing if can save his life!”
“This Lu Xuan truly is a rare genius, but he is too young and his experience is too shallow. If he’s given a few more years, there’s no doubt that he’ll become the top expert in the world. However, it hasn’t reached that point yet!”
Zhang Qingming wore a somewhat regretful look on his face, pitying Lu Xuan. This time, the possibility of Lu Xuan escaping was extremely slim. Furthermore, defeating Dan Chenzi was impossible.
Dan Chenzi’s power spread everywhere and almost instantly locked onto Lu Xuan. A blue sword light had appeared in his hand, which he sliced down.
Boom!
Suddenly, the world began to collapse. As a violent force instantly exploded everything in range, the sword light landed on Lu Xuan’s body.
All the cultivators present who were below the fourth tier of the Divine Treasure Realm had knelt to the ground, unable to stop their bodies from trembling. When faced with such might, they simply did not have any power to resist.
Even those experts above the third tier of the Divine Treasure Realm felt as if a power like Mount Tai was pressing down on them, as they were trying their best to support themselves.
Even for an existence like Zhang Qingming, his expression had also changed. He had to release his aura to resist the attack.
This was because the mighty power had reached all of WuTang Mountain and scattered onto everyone. If it had been aimed at one person, then the consequences would’ve been unimaginable.
“Pft!”
Everyone saw how Lu Xuan was split in half.
Their eyes and mouths were left wide open in disbelief at the sight.
How did this happen?!
Lu Xuan wasn’t even able to resist one attack from Dan Chenzi. Everyone could see how massive the difference in strength between the two sides was; it was far too wide!
They were not on the same level at all!
Just earlier, Lu Xuan had been able to easily kill the 10 Devils of Bitter Sea. Now, Lu Xuan had been easily cut in half.
The gap between the two sides was so significant that it was impossible for Lu Xuan to make up for it or counter an attack.
This Dan Chenzi was the real hidden ace of Yan Han.
The 10 Devils of Bitter Sea were only sent out to test Lu Xuan’s strength.
A ferocious expression appeared on Dan Chenzi’s face as a fierce light flashed in his eyes.
Lu Xuan had been too amazing. The more amazing he was, however, the more Dan Chenzi wanted to kill him!
This was because once Lu Xuan matured a bit more, he was bound to become a significant enemy for Yan Han.
There were some things that even Dan Chenzi himself was unwilling to admit.
When Yan Han was at Lu Xuan’s current age and realm, his combat strength had not been as amazing as what Lu Xuan displayed.
No one except for Dan Chenzi knew how Yan Han had suppressed the 10 Devils of Bitter Sea back then. Yan Han went through a painful battle that had lasted 10 days and nights.
Yan Han gradually defeated the 10 Devils of Bitter Sea, ultimately making them become his followers.
What about Lu Xuan? What he displayed was much stronger than Yan Han, as he had defeated the 10 Devils of Bitter Sea within the blink of an eye.
Such a person shouldn’t be allowed to live!
So what if he was a genius? So what if he was heaven’s proud son?
All of that was only possible if he was able to grow up safe and sound. Only then would he become the master of an era. If he was unable to grow up safely, then he was just a human being on the road to success.
Dan Chenzi had seen several people like him.
Geniuses and heaven’s proud sons were usually from the big sects or even lineages like their Taichu Path. Was it because there were no amazing geniuses among the other cultivators?
Of course not. This was because they were too weak without the help of the elders. Therefore, the rate of success was far lower than that of these big sects.
With these skills passed down between generations, the big sects began growing stronger. Meanwhile, other small lineages would’ve been cut off after having only being passed down for a few generations.
Many of the magic and martial arts that were once amazing had all lost their inheritance.
“No!”
Suddenly, Dan Chenzi’s expression changed.
He saw that upon being split in half by Yan Han, Lu Xuan had turned into a mass of spirit qi in the sky that scattered in all directions.
“Did he miss?”
Soon, the others had also noticed this. At first, they thought that Dan Chenzi had missed Lu Xuan and only split the residual shadow instead.
“No, I didn’t miss!”
Dan Chenzi’s expression changed instantly. He remembered that he had hit Lu Xuan. He could’ve sworn that he had hit Lu Xuan; there was no mistaking the feeling of splitting him in half.
Even if Lu Xuan had any methods to hide from Dan Chenzi’s eyes, it would’ve been useless. He had locked onto Lu Xuan with his divine mind. Even if Lu Xuan could hide from Dan Chenzi’s sight, he could never hide from Dan Chenzi’s divine mind.
However, despite being split in half, Lu Xuan was still in front of Dan Chenzi, as a mass of spirit qi. This was absurd.
While everyone was left puzzled, the remaining member of the 10 Devils of Bitter Sea had finally breathed a sigh of relief. It didn’t matter how Lu Xuan had disappeared; at least he actually dodged a bullet!
Lu Xuan had put too much pressure on him. The pressure was even greater than the shadow left on them by their master.
However, a sword qi fell from the sky and pierced him almost immediately afterward.
“Pft!”
Fresh blood splattered everywhere as the last member of the 10 Devils of Bitter Sea died!
“No one can protect the person I want to kill!”
