Martial arts is like a mountain that you keep climbing.
For those who actually embark on this path, no one knows where it will end.
Those who cannot climb the mountain envy those at its foot, while those at the foot look up at those halfway up. And those who appear to be standing at the summit, no one knows what they see in their own eyes...
In short, for martial artists, having their understanding challenged is a routine occurrence.
But the scene before them was still enough to shock everyone present.
No one could have imagined that this group of people, whose combat power was almost as great as mountains and seas and who had already stood at the top of the university, would be slaughtered like cattle and sheep.
They had no chance to fight back, and didn't even have time to react.
"I've found you."
"Ha, Shenqian, what do you think..."
Just after Sun Zhen, the leader, uttered those six words, the world suddenly became bright.
One cut!
No, to be precise, it was a slash that no one saw clearly.
After the slash, only blood splattered, and no screams could be heard, but the seven arms that shot into the sky sent chills down everyone's spines.
A moment later, suppressed, muffled cries of pain rang out one after another.
Standing on that low slope, the seven people who were at the forefront, the peerless geniuses from the Seven Heavens Ranking, those who could only look up to most people present, were directly crippled.
Like chopping melons and cutting vegetables.
No, even chopping melons and vegetables requires finding the right angle, but Shen Qian didn't even move a step. He simply and casually swung his knife, and it was as if the most precise arc in the world drew a circle between the seven people.
"hiss!"
"You're insane, how dare you..."
The remaining people on the hillside were either shocked or resentful, but before sinking, they didn't utter a single wasted word, and the long sword in their hands gleamed brightly once more.
This time, however, everyone was finally able to clearly see its trajectory.
Amidst the intense threat of death, the seven who had just experienced the pain of losing an arm—those who remained somewhat calm remembered to pick up their arms, while those whose minds were in complete disarray only had time to follow their instincts and press the teleportation button.
boom!
The dazzling blade light collided with the protective aura that popped out from the seven bracelets.
At that moment, the supposedly indestructible halo began to tremble violently, making one wonder if it was about to shatter at any moment.
The turbulent aftershocks instantly leveled the entire hillside, and the remaining people scrambled to take cover.
Sun Zhen and the other six finally disappeared from the Nine Heavens Battlefield after a brief delay.
Clang!
A large number of Nine Heavens Decrees fell onto the grass.
There was a brief silence at the scene.
While the ordinary martial artists around them were still stunned, the remaining twenty-six people instantly made two completely different reactions.
Nine people turned and ran without hesitation, while the other seventeen...
Almost immediately after exchanging a glance, they attacked Shen Qian.
"He must have used some kind of supernatural power!"
"Take advantage of his weakened state and kill him together!"
"Don't hold back!"
Different angry shouts rang out, but they did not affect the unspoken understanding between the seventeen people.
Those who can be called geniuses must have extraordinary abilities.
Their extraordinary talent, rich combat experience, unyielding martial arts will, and countless life-or-death experiences through fortuitous encounters all told them...
Don't turn your back on someone stronger than you.
Therefore, the possibility of escape was immediately ruled out by them.
Faced with a formidable opponent, just as No. 56 and the other three made their choice in the Spirit Witch World, they did not retreat, nor did they lose their composure. Instead, they adopted the wisest course of action.
Move forward without reservation!
Only in this way can one create even the faintest chance of killing a partner amidst adversity.
Even though they were on opposite sides at this moment, it must be said that there was admiration in Shen Qian's eyes.
As expected of the Seven Heavens Ranking, they are all unparalleled geniuses, one in ten thousand. The phrase "collapses in an instant" can only be used to describe worthless objects, but they are clearly not.
It's just a pity...
When the gap becomes so large that it is incomprehensible, no matter how high your fighting spirit is, it is just wishful thinking.
This gap is like that between a king and a nobleman, between mountains and seas, between mountains and seas and ordinary martial artists, and between Shen Qian and them.
Shen Qian unleashed a single slash, but the blade's light instantly transformed into a surging wave that engulfed all seventeen people.
This is neither a martial art nor a supernatural power; it is simply the most basic application of Yuan energy, even with a touch of fancy flair.
But to the seventeen people, this was a raging storm, the despair at the end of the world.
Their various methods, which they were so proud of, even their secret techniques for burning Yuan energy, all seemed so pale in the face of this absolute power.
boom!
"puff!"
Seven or eight people caught at the edge of the blade coughed up blood and flew backward, while the rest were all instantly slammed into the mud.
After unleashing that slash, he didn't even look at them; his figure had already transformed into a storm, sweeping over the nine people who had just started to flee in the blink of an eye.
At least one thing is for the seventeen people scattered across the grass to be thankful for right now.
That is, they did not leave their backs to the front.
They didn't even try to show off their ridiculously slow, crawling speed in front of the sinking.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft...
Blood splattered, as if history were repeating itself. In just four seconds, nine arms shot into the sky, bringing with them a shower of blood.
At this moment, Qiu Furong, who had run the farthest, had only just sprinted 280 meters.
