"Pfft!"
The spear's edge tore through the remaining purple protective shield as easily as slicing tofu, instantly piercing Yun Hui's left shoulder and spraying blood. Even more terrifying, the sharp energy contained within the spear's edge exploded within his body, directly shattering half of his body!
"ah--!"
The piercing screams abruptly ceased.
Xiao Chen flashed and appeared in front of Yun Hui. His eyes were unwavering, and he kicked Yun Hui's head.
"Bang!"
With a muffled thud, Yun Hui's head was kicked away, rolling roundly to the other side of the battlefield, his eyes still wide open, as if still holding the last trace of disbelief—How dare you really kill me? I am the son of the Ziji Pavilion Sect Master!
"You little beast! How dare you!"
Xuan Yun's eyes were bloodshot, his anger erupting like a volcano. He had only intended to teach Yun Hui a lesson and temper his arrogance, but he hadn't expected Xiao Chen to be so ruthless, actually going so far as to kill him!
He could no longer hold back, and with a swift movement, he charged toward Xiao Chen. Purple mist surged around him, and the pressure of the Dao Inquiry Realm swept out like a tsunami, even bending the ancient trees around him.
"Old man, your opponent is me!"
A dark figure, like a small mountain, stood in front of Xuan Yun—it was Shi Tou! He had been holding back his energy for a long time. The pressure of Xuan Yun's Dao Inquiry Realm aura fell on him, but instead of frightening him, it aroused the ferocity in his bones.
"boom!"
Shi Tou swung his fist, as big as a clay pot, with a force that tore through the air, and smashed it toward Xuan Yun's face. A faint black aura even lingered around his fist—a sign that he had pushed his physical cultivation power to its limit.
Xuan Yun snorted coldly and raised his hand to slap away the seemingly reckless punch.
In his view, a mere body cultivator, no matter how strong their physical body, could never be a match for him, a cultivator at the Dao Inquiry Realm.
But the moment their fists collided, Xuan Yun's expression changed drastically!
An immense force emanated from the opponent's fist, carrying a brutal and unreasonable power that directly caused his arm to go numb and his entire body to uncontrollably retreat three steps!
"A body cultivator? He actually possesses such brute strength?" Xuan Yun was both shocked and furious. He had indeed been careless just now, but this kid's strength far exceeded his expectations!
"Tickling!" Stone grinned, giving Xuan Yun no chance to catch his breath, and his fists rained down like raindrops. The sounds of the impacts echoed through the forest, each punch carrying the power to split mountains and shatter rocks.
Xuan Yun unleashed his Purple Lightning, and countless purple lightning snakes coiled around the stone, crackling as they struck it, leaving only faint scorch marks—the stone's body had long been tempered to the point where it was impervious to blades and spears, and this amount of lightning was practically nothing more than a tickle to him.
"Damn it!" Xuan Yun became more and more alarmed as he fought.
He discovered that this strong man was not only strong and tough, but also extremely difficult to deal with. Several times he tried to go around the stone to kill Xiao Chen, but the other party held him tightly. His fist, as big as a casserole dish, was like a leech, impossible to shake off!
Meanwhile, Xiao Chen had already sheathed his spear, his gaze calm and unwavering as he looked at Yun Hui's head, which had rolled to his feet. To him, this was merely the elimination of an enemy, nothing more.
He looked up at the battlefield and saw Shi Tou force Xuan Yun back with a single punch. He couldn't help but nod – Shi Tou's training during this period had not been in vain, and the domineering power of a body cultivator was on full display.
"The hatred for killing my disciple is irreconcilable!" Xuan Yun was burning with rage from being entangled by the stone, and when he saw Yun Hui's head, he completely lost his mind.
He slapped his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood essence. The purple mist around him condensed into a purple spear, which was his natal magic weapon, the "Purple Lightning Spear"!
"Boy, die!" Xuan Yun held the Purple Lightning Spear, channeling all his spiritual power into it, and thrust it toward Shi Tou's heart. Purple lightning crackled around the spear tip, clearly indicating his intention to kill!
"Well done!" Stone was not afraid at all. Instead, his eyes turned bloodshot and his body was filled with black energy that surged like boiling water. Xuan Yun's relentless pursuit had completely ignited the ferocity within him, causing him to go berserk!
Instead of retreating, he advanced, meeting the purple lightning spear head-on with his fist!
"The first punch!"
"Clang!" The Purple Lightning Spear trembled violently, and its tip was bent from the impact.
"The second punch!"
"Crack!" A crack appeared on the spear.
"The third punch!"
"boom!"
Xuan Yun's natal magic weapon, the Purple Lightning Spear, was actually shattered by Shi Tou's three punches!
"puff!"
With his natal magic weapon destroyed, Xuan Yun suffered a severe backlash, spitting out a mouthful of blood and instantly weakening.
"die!"
Stone's eyes were bloodshot, and his fists, shrouded in black mist, did not stop for a moment, like cannonballs being fired, punching Xuan Yun one after another!
"Bang bang bang!"
The dull thud was accompanied by the cracking sound of bones breaking. Xuan Yun didn't even have time to scream before his body was rapidly deformed and collapsed under the violent fist of the stone. Finally, with a "boom", he exploded into a mess of flesh!
"Stone!" Jiang Li hurriedly stepped forward and took out a small jade bottle from her storage bag. Inside were a few drops of crystal-clear liquid—the sap from the old locust tree of the Qingyun Sect, which had the miraculous effect of calming the mind and healing injuries.
She dripped tree sap onto the stone's forehead and watched as the injuries he sustained from the rampage and lightning healed at a visible speed, before she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
A moment later, Shi Tou slowly woke up, rubbed his head, grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth: "It feels so good, my whole body feels numb."
Jiang Li rolled her eyes helplessly at his silly look, silently complaining to herself:
That's for sure. After being struck by the purple lightning of the Dao Inquiry Realm for so long, how could it not be numb?
Xiao Chen stepped forward, patted Shi Tou on the shoulder, and looked at him with a hint of approval.
If Shi Tou hadn't held Xuan Yun back so tightly, he might not have been able to defeat Yun Hui so easily.
The forest returned to silence, with only the stench of blood and the scent of vegetation mingling together.
Jiang Li glanced at the bloodstains and remains on the ground and frowned, saying, "This place is not suitable for staying for long. The fighting is too noisy and may attract other cultivators or demonic beasts."
Xiao Chen nodded: "Let's go deeper into the area."
The three of them did not linger and quickly disappeared into the depths of the dense forest.
Only the still-dry bloodstains and scattered bone fragments on the ground silently testify to the brutal battle that had just taken place.
Deep within the endless forest, the golden light grew even more intense, and the aura of the Heart of the World faintly emanated from it.
This attracts more people to this perilous place, but it also foreshadows an even more dangerous struggle that awaits them.
