Chapter 64: The Terror of a Single Slash Instant Kill of a Cave Heaven Realm Expert
As the oppressive aura descended, everyone felt an overwhelming pressure.
Those below the Dharma Aspect Realm even had the urge to kneel.
In contrast, the terrified Dharma Aspect experts revealed expressions of joy.
They recognized this aura as belonging to a Cave Heaven Realm Marquis.
Some were ecstatic.
The newcomer was the supreme elder of their faction.
They felt as if they had escaped death.
But Ye Wushang’s next move stunned them all.
Facing the pressure, Ye Wushang’s expression didn’t change.
It was as if he hadn’t heard the voice at all.
With his blade in hand, his momentum undiminished, he slashed.
BOOM!
The blade swept across the land, carving a massive trench hundreds of miles long.
Swallowing the remaining Dharma Aspect experts.
“No!”
“I haven’t broken through to Cave Heaven yet I don’t want to die!”
“I hate this! I was one step away from ascending. Why did I get involved?”
“Ye Wushang, I curse you!”
Their cries of regret and hatred were drowned in the blade light.
When the light faded, only a deep trench remained.
No trace of life.
Just one slash.
The late-stage Dharma Aspect experts couldn’t even resist.
They were crushed instantly.
Spectators fell silent.
They stared at Ye Wushang, the black-clad youth with a blade, unable to shake their awe.
Even the distant aura paused, clearly shaken.
Then, a more terrifying pressure erupted, crashing down on Ye Wushang.
“Ye Wushang, you court death! Kneel!”
A voice thundered.
A mighty force pressed down on Ye Wushang, as if an entire world sought to crush him.
If not for his powerful physique and immense strength, he might have faltered.
But after adjusting, he simply shrugged.
A surge of blade intent burst from him, slicing through the pressure.
Spectators felt the oppressive aura vanish.
Ye Wushang had not only freed himself, but also relieved them of the Cave Heaven expert’s pressure.
They were stunned.
Ye Wushang had no fear even of a Cave Heaven Realm powerhouse.
Then, the elder descended.
White-haired and aged, he tried to hide it, but his end was near.
He had lived over 1,400 years.
No elixir could extend his life much longer.
“It’s Tongyun Ancestor of the Lingfeng Empire! A relic from over a millennium ago!”
“No wonder he’s so powerful he’s a Cave Heaven Realm expert!”
“Even the Five Elements Pine has drawn out a Cave Heaven expert!”
“Can Ye Wushang handle this? Cave Heaven is leagues above Dharma Aspect!”
Tongyun Ancestor surveyed the blood-soaked battlefield.
Seeing his empire’s pillars dead, he felt a stab of pain.
Those four half-step Cave Heaven experts had cost a fortune to cultivate.
They were the future of the empire.
If they had broken through, they could’ve secured centuries of peace.
Now, Ye Wushang has wiped them out.
Normally, factions would spar and negotiate injuries, not deaths.
But Ye Wushang didn’t play by those rules.
Tongyun’s Ancestor was filled with regret and murderous intent.
“Ye Wushang, you truly don’t know your place!”
His killing intent was palpable.
Most would panic under such a gaze.
But Ye Wushang remained calm.
He stepped forward, eyes cold.
“A washed-up relic who broke through with external aid and will never advance again. How dare you bark at me?”
With the Eye of Destiny, Ye Wushang saw through him.
The impact was deafening.
Spectators covered their ears, eyes locked on the clash.
Energy waves rippled outward.
Ye Wushang snorted, shattering the pressure.
Tongyun Ancestor was forced back dozens of meters, stunned.
His eyes betrayed his shock.
Now he understood why Ye Wushang was hailed as the top of the Four Dragon Prodigies.
With flowing black hair and blazing battle intent, Ye Wushang looked unstoppable.
Tongyun Ancestor felt a twinge of regret.
“Old dog, with that pathetic strength, you dare bark at me? Try this Northern Abyss Shatter, Slash!”
Ye Wushang struck again.
Seven-layer blade intent surged.
Golden light flashed from his arms Ninefold Golden Body Art activated.
His Heavenly Blade Physique roared with power.
His Regenerative Supreme Bone glowed, enhancing his technique.
With all forces combined, a slash unlike any before burst from Zhan Yue.
BOOM!
The sky trembled.
All creation shattered.
The slash birthed a celestial phenomenon: rows of Northern Abyss glaciers formed.
The blade light transformed into a thousand-meter giant Kunpeng.
Its gaping maw surged forward.
Glaciers shattered, their energy absorbed into the Kunpeng.
It roared, charging the Tongyun Ancestor.
He tried everything, roared, unleashed secret arts, summoned treasures.
But nothing worked.
Kunpeng devoured it all.
Finally, it swallowed him whole.
“Impossible!”
Tongyun Ancestor’s final cry echoed.
And then he was gone.
A Cave Heaven Realm elder…
Slain.
