As the hand, imbued with divine power, was about to strike his neck, Gao Yan showed no sign of panic.
Suddenly, he raised his right arm and pointed it forward.
Instantly, a stream of azure immortal power shot out from his fingertips.
The moment that immortal power shot out, the eighth-level Earth Immortal felt a sense of impending doom.
Startled, he immediately withdrew his hand and retreated. At the same time, the immortal power within his body rapidly formed a thick immortal power shield on his body surface. Simultaneously, a mid-grade immortal sword appeared in his hand, and he slashed at the immortal power with the fastest speed and greatest power.
"bite!"
His sword did indeed strike the immortal power that Gao Yan had shot out, but it produced a metallic clang. Immediately afterward, the eighth-level Earth Immortal felt a violent tremor in his arm, almost causing him to lose his grip on the immortal sword.
On the other hand, the immortal power was unaffected and continued to shoot towards him!
Damn it!
The eighth-level Earth Immortal's expression changed drastically, and he prepared to dodge, but at that moment, his immortal power suddenly accelerated!
"puff!"
The immortal power that Gao Yan shot out successfully pierced through the immortal power shield on the body of an eighth-level Earth Immortal, and then entered his brow. With a muffled groan, the other party's body went limp and collapsed to the ground, and a trace of soul power dissipated from his body.
Everyone knew perfectly well that the immortal soul had been shattered beyond repair!
Immediately afterwards, everyone looked at Gao Yan with shocked eyes. That was an eighth-level Earth Immortal! He was killed in one move. Moreover, they could see that the eighth-level Earth Immortal couldn't even put up a fight!
Similarly, Zhou Yushen was also quite shocked at this moment, and at the same time, he felt a strong sense of apprehension. He had clearly found out that Gao Yan was only at the fifth level of Earth Immortal.
Although his combat strength is somewhat stronger, it is at most comparable to a seventh-level Earth Immortal.
But to my utter surprise, it has reached such a terrifying level, probably not much different from his own ninth-level Earth Immortal.
"Gao Yan, how dare you kill him?"
The next moment, Zhou Yushen coldly stared at Gao Yan and said.
"How could I dare? Didn't you see it?"
Gao Yan said calmly, then he split off two soul seeds and they entered into the immortal souls of Zhou Yushen and his subordinates, and then read their memories.
After reading some of Zhou Yushen's memories, he couldn't help but be a little surprised!
Because this Zhou Yushen is not a subordinate of any newly promoted Golden Immortal at all; he's a complete fraud.
Upon learning that Guanghan City had been breached by the immortal army of the Southern Guangyu, he, being a fraudster himself, immediately hatched a plan.
He fabricated an identity for himself and came to Tianyao City.
His plan was simple.
The plan was to disguise themselves as subordinates of newly promoted Golden Immortals, then use their status as newly promoted Golden Immortals to intimidate the Earth Immortal forces in Tianyao City, and finally join forces with them to capture the city lord, Zhao Youxian.
They then seize the position of city lord, take the opportunity to plunder the entire city, and finally run away with the looted goods!
"Very well, you actually dared to ruin my master's important affairs. Didn't you ever think about what the consequences would be for offending a Golden Immortal?" Zhou Yushen shouted sternly, still putting on an act.
"Alright!"
Now that he knew the other party was a fraud, Gao Yan was too lazy to argue with him: "Zhou Yushen, you keep saying that your master is a Golden Immortal, so may I ask what your master's surname and given name is?"
"You are not worthy to know the name of my master!" Zhou Yushen had a bad feeling.
"You're not worthy, or you simply can't say it!" Gao Yan sneered. "You're a complete fraud! There's no such thing as a newly promoted Golden Immortal behind you!"
Upon hearing this, everyone in the private room erupted in an uproar!
"You brat, you dare ruin my plans? Die!"
Seeing that he had been exposed, Zhou Yushen was too lazy to continue acting. At the same time, he felt a great killing intent towards Gao Yan. A high-grade immortal weapon spear appeared in his hand, and with a flick of his wrist, several spear shadows enveloped Gao Yan's body.
Zhou Yushen's combat power is much stronger than that of the eighth-level Earth Immortal from before.
But in Gao Yan's eyes, it was still not enough.
With a flicker of his figure, he vanished from his original spot and reappeared behind Zhou Yushen. Then, with a flick of his finger, the immortal power at his fingertip directly shattered Zhou Yushen's immortal power shield. Then, a surge of immortal power, like a small snake, rushed into the other party's sea of consciousness, crushing his immortal soul into dust!
With a swift reach, a high-grade immortal artifact and a storage ring fell into Gao Yan's hands.
Another Earth Immortal at the eighth level was so terrified by this scene that he instinctively crashed into the nearest wall, intending to break through it and escape.
But Gao Yan would never give him that chance.
He raised his hand and pointed another finger, ending his life.
Finally, Gao Yan waved his hand to summon two storage rings and several mid-grade immortal artifacts, and said to the other gang leaders in the room, "Fellow Daoists, I'll be taking my leave now!"
"Respectfully seeing off Fellow Daoist Gao!"
The gang leaders present quickly stood up to see him off.
"Please wait, everyone!"
Gao Yan smiled at them and strode away from Dingxian Tower.
The gang leaders stared at the three corpses on the ground, speechless for a long time.
These words were hidden far too well.
"Chief Bai, what level do you think Fellow Daoist Gao has reached?"
Chen Jian looked at Bai Yushuang, because Bai Yushuang had the highest cultivation level present.
"She must be a celestial being!"
Bai Yushuang thought for a moment and said, "That Zhou Yushen was a ninth-level Earth Immortal and possessed a high-grade immortal artifact, but he was still no match for Fellow Daoist Gao. This is not something an ordinary ninth-level Earth Immortal could do!"
"Ah, a celestial beauty!"
"What is a celestial being like him doing lingering in Tianyao City?" some people wondered.
"What, you want to pry into the secrets of a celestial being?"
"No, don't misunderstand, I was just saying it casually!"
"Alright, everyone had better keep quiet about what happened today!" Bai Yushuang spoke again, "Otherwise, you all know the consequences if you incur Fellow Daoist Gao's displeasure!"
