Yang Xiao's gaze froze upon hearing this. He, the number one prodigy in Kyushu City, was about to be humiliated by an unknown junior. This was simply unforgivable.
He stretched out his arm, preparing to unleash his flaming spear again, but Gu Yifeng said calmly, "Enough."
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the Seventh Elder and said, "I'd like to hear how you intend to expel me on behalf of the Azure Wind Academy?"
"Do you dare to gamble your life with me?" The Seventh Elder stared at Gu Yifeng, his face full of provocation.
"Bet with your life?" Gu Yifeng frowned. Although he was exceptionally talented, he was still young. How could he compete with the Seventh Elder in terms of life and death?
"As expected of the Seventh Elder of Cangfeng Academy, what a vicious scheme! He forced Gu Yifeng to gamble his life with him, leaving him with no way out. Even if he is unwilling to gamble his life, the other disciples of Cangfeng Academy will not let him go." The crowd trembled inwardly. This Seventh Elder is truly ruthless.
Clearly, he had anticipated this situation and deliberately set a trap to confine Gu Yifeng within the formation, forcing him to gamble with his life.
If he wins, Gu Yifeng will surely die; if he loses, he can completely clear himself of suspicion and leave no room for criticism.
Yang Xiao looked in that direction and sighed inwardly. The Seventh Elder had indeed put in a lot of effort, but unfortunately, he had encountered Gu Yifeng and was destined to return disappointed.
"Are you sure you want to gamble with your life?" Gu Yifeng looked at the Seventh Elder opposite him with indifferent eyes. His voice was slightly hoarse, as if he had experienced many vicissitudes of life. At this moment, his temperament had undergone earth-shattering changes, and his aura had been transformed.
His eyes shone with a dazzling light, like the light of stars, enveloping him in a galaxy of brilliance, as if he were wearing a layer of starlight armor, revealing an extraordinary temperament.
At this moment, he was like a god descending to earth, standing proudly in the void, giving people immense pressure.
"Of course!" the Seventh Elder replied without hesitation, his eyes sharp and his tone aggressive.
He was confident that with his fourth-tier Emperor Realm cultivation, killing a third-tier Emperor Realm martial artist would be a piece of cake.
"Since you're so stubborn, don't blame me for being ruthless." Gu Yifeng said calmly, then took a step forward. With each step he took, the space around him trembled violently, as if it couldn't withstand his pressure. His speed increased, and he disappeared from the spot in an instant.
"boom!"
An extremely terrifying soul power erupted, sweeping across the vast space in an instant. Powerful soul attacks roared and slashed towards the Seventh Elder, accompanied by multiple elemental souls such as the Thunder Rule and the Ice Rule. The power was astonishing and impossible to defend against.
"A trivial skill!"
The Seventh Elder snorted coldly, waved his sleeve, and a wisp of purple light burst forth from his sleeve. In an instant, a huge cauldron materialized out of thin air. Its entire body was deep purple, engraved with intricate and ancient patterns, releasing an extremely heavy sense of oppression, as if it contained an ultimate destructive power.
"Suppress!" The Seventh Elder shouted, and the Purple-Gold Cauldron floated in mid-air. The lid opened, and in an instant, a tremendous suction force burst out, devouring all the surrounding soul attacks and Yuan Power, including Gu Yifeng's Yuan Soul, all of which were taken away by the Purple-Gold Cauldron.
Seeing that Gu Yifeng's attack was countered by the Purple Gold Cauldron, the crowd was stunned, their eyes shining with surprise.
Many people whispered among themselves, "This Seventh Elder is not only powerful, but his soul power is also terrifying. He was able to withstand Gu Yifeng's soul attack. No wonder he can hold onto his position as the Seventh Elder!"
Gu Yifeng looked at the Seventh Elder, a sarcastic smile playing on his lips, and said, "This is just the beginning."
Upon hearing this, the Seventh Elder's expression suddenly hardened. He looked up, and a strange, dark light suddenly appeared in his pupils, with two black vortexes slowly rotating, as if connecting to another world.
"That place is..." Many people's hearts pounded, and their eyes were filled with horror.
Seventh Elder, he comprehended the rules of the demon?
What the Seventh Elder revealed was the most quintessential part of the Law of Demons—the Law of Devouring.
His own soul power was strong enough that he comprehended the laws of demons and fused them to forge a demonic artifact that devoured the demonic cauldron.
This cauldron refines all things in heaven and earth, devouring everything, making it extremely terrifying.
Once this cauldron appears, even beings of the same level will find it difficult to escape its devouring power.
Gu Yifeng also saw the Devouring Demon Cauldron, and his pupils couldn't help but shrink. What kind of demon cauldron is this? It actually contains the attribute of devouring.
The Seventh Elder glanced at Gu Yifeng, a mocking smile flashing in his eyes, and said indifferently, "Now you know you were wrong, right? Too late."
Having said that, the Devouring Demon Cauldron expanded wildly, instantly reaching a height of a hundred feet, obscuring the sky. Its mouth opened, as if gusts of purplish-black hurricanes were sweeping out and engulfing Gu Yifeng.
A series of shrill screams echoed through the sky as the hurricanes rushed towards Gu Yifeng, intending to tear his body apart.
The Seventh Elder narrowed his eyes. These hurricanes contained extremely strong corrosive power, which even ordinary fifth-order Emperor Realm cultivators might not be able to withstand. Gu Yifeng was doomed.
"Overestimating himself," he thought to himself.
Gu Yifeng raised his head and looked at the hurricane that was rapidly approaching him. His face remained calm, as if he was not worried at all. In his mind, a wisp of sword intent rose up.
"Sword intent".
Everyone felt a slight tremor in their hearts. It seemed that Gu Yifeng was truly at his wit's end, otherwise why would he resort to sword intent?
But the Seventh Elder had a bright smile on his face. In his opinion, Gu Yifeng was showing signs of exhaustion. He was activating the Demon Cauldron and wasting his life essence to activate it. In addition, he was using his sword intent. So what if Gu Yifeng had comprehended the rules of the sword?
A clear, crisp sword cry rang out, and Gu Yifeng's body erupted with endless, dazzling silver-white light. Countless sharp swords appeared and surrounded him, radiating a sharp aura and ringing out.
"Slash!" Gu Yifeng pointed his finger, and the swords simultaneously unleashed dazzling sword light, carrying unparalleled and fierce killing power, rushing towards the hurricanes.
"Thump, thump, thump..."
Swords clashed, producing resounding clangs. Invisible sword rules permeated the void, ravaging space as if to destroy everything.
"These are all swords?" Many people stared wide-eyed at this scene. Behind Gu Yifeng, there were many precious swords floating, and each of them contained extremely strong sword intent.
Just how many rules of swordsmanship has he mastered?
Many people have a thought in their minds: perhaps this is the only explanation, otherwise all of this cannot be explained.
The Seventh Elder stared intently at the swords flying towards him, his heart trembling slightly. He felt that those swords were too sharp, and if he were to touch them, he would surely be injured.
"Rumble." The purple-gold cauldron in his hand floated upwards continuously, and terrifying auras were released from the cauldron. Strands of demonic runes flowed out and gathered at the top of the cauldron, transforming into a purple-black demonic sun that released terrifying demonic power, as if it could burn everything.
