Chapter 689: Explode

Sword qi ran rampant, sweeping forth like the ocean and blanketing ten thousand feet of sky. The sight was dazzling to behold.

Three Spiritual Incarnation Realm existences had died, their souls scattered!

The entire area fell deathly silent.

The crowd was rooted to the spot with utter astonishment.

Dongguo Hai had been just about to intervene, but he didn’t make it in time.

When he witnessed this, the mighty grand elder of the Dongguo Family, an expert with one foot in the Spiritual Revolution Realm, reacted as if he’d been struck by lightning.

“How is this…” he couldn’t help but cry out.

Earlier, Dongguo Hai had been overbearing and forceful. He saw Su Yi as a threat, and proclaimed that he’d surely kill him here and now.?He even called Wen Xinzhao and the others traitors, and he intended to punish them severely.

He’d been so domineering that he even disregarded Dongguo Feng’s attempts to stop him. He seemed to think others’ lives were in his hands, and he could do with them as he pleased.

Yet now, when he watched Su Yi take down six Spiritual Incarnation Realm cultivators with casual ease, his expression changed dramatically. His eyes widened, and he looked utterly flabbergasted.

“Grand elder, had you listened to me earlier, how could this have happened? You’re to blame for those six seniors’ deaths!”

Dongguo Feng let out a long sigh, a conflicted look in his eyes and a hateful expression on his face.

“Feng’er, are you insane?” Dongguo Hai’s face was ashen as he shouted, “Everyone here saw it. Su Yi killed our clansmen! How can you say that I caused their deaths?”

He was obviously beside himself with anger, and Dongguo Feng’s attitude only enraged him even further.

Dongguo Feng was silent.

Those six seniors were already dead!

What good was arguing about it now?

“Qing Ya, watch closely.” Su Yi’s calm voice echoed throughout the area.

After a brief, stunned pause, Qing Ya seemed to understand. She chirped, “Mm!”

Whoosh!

Su Yi stepped into the air, then shot toward Dongguo Hai like a streak of light.

“You’re seeking death!”

Dongguo Hai was long since utterly infuriated, and when he saw this, his hair and beard bristled. He suddenly stretched out his hand and attacked.

A bronze spear wrapped in lightning fell into Dongguo Hai’s palm.

Then, his imposing aura exploded around him. The wind and clouds changed color, and electricity surged.

Dongguo Hai was an expert just one lucky break away from entering the Spiritual Revolution Realm. When his full power and fury burst forth, the entire landscape trembled.

“Die!” He bellowed, his voice shaking heaven and earth. His spear thrust through the air, making him seem like a primordial barbarian god.

Tyrannical, violent, and forceful beyond measure.

He’d launched just one attack, but the terrifying killing intent on display suppressed the skies. Explosive electrical radiance ran rampant, and without exception, the onlookers’ scalps went numb.

The power Dongguo Hai had on display far surpassed those six Spiritual Incarnation Realm existences!

Su Yi swung his sword and clashed with him head-on.

Clang!!!

A deafening impact rang out as a grand battle began.

Sword qi shot forth and spear shadows overlapped. Their clash seemed to overturn heaven and earth, and a windstorm of destruction swept outward.

They were like two deities locked in combat.

One shot through the skies, sword in hand. His combat prowess was unbelievable and heaven-defying, and he seemed utterly unrestrained. The power of his swordsmanship pieced the nine heavens and ten earths.

The other swung his war spear with the momentum of a barbarian god, every movement perfectly under control. He was tyrannical beyond compare, and terrifying electrical energy filled his surroundings.

What shocked the onlookers most was that even against someone like Dongguo Hai, Su Yi didn’t seem at all at a disadvantage. No, he looked as carefree and composed as ever.

Furthermore, the longer the battle raged, the more forceful Su Yi seemed. He was actually suppressing Dongguo Hai!

Within just a few breaths of time, several bloody gashes appeared on Dongguo Hai’s body.

“Isn’t he a bit too strong…?”

“What Spiritual Manifestation cultivator can suppress a peak Spiritual Incarnation expert?”

Uproar rang out on all sides. Countless people were astonished by the scene playing out before them.

It was then that Dongguo Feng understood something on a visceral level.

Su Yi didn’t just far surpass him when it came to attainments in the Dao of the Sword. Even his raw power and foundations in the Grand Dao exceeded his, and by no small margin, either!

Otherwise, he couldn’t have killed six Spiritual Incarnation Realm experts as easily as if he were taking something out of his pocket.

He certainly couldn’t have seized the advantage while fighting a peak Spiritual Incarnation expert like Dongguo Hai!

Where the hell did he come from??For the first time, Dongguo Feng felt a bit bewildered.

The top ten experts of Bluecloud Tower’s Ranking of Stars included eight geniuses of top ancient factions. The remaining two were from top otherworld factions.

Not one genius of the modern Azure Continent had made it into the top ten.

This had long since become common knowledge.

Yet now, Dongguo Feng dared say with certainty that Su Yi’s strength was more than enough to fight for a spot in the top three!

To the best of Dongguo Feng’s knowledge, the experts in the top three were all chosen sons of heaven. They didn’t just have heaven-defying talent; they’d been blessed by fate, and their combat prowess was terrifying.

Their most notable commonality was that all three of them had killed top Spiritual Incarnation cultivators despite their Spiritual Manifestation Realm cultivation. Each was more pervertedly strong than the one before.

And Su Yi possessed similar abilities!

“Dammit!” Dongguo Hai alternated between rage and alarm, his expression shifting non-stop.

However, in comparison to his earlier, unadulterated fury, his expression had an obvious newfound solemnity, as well as dread!

Although the battle had only just begun, he already had more than ten bleeding gashes. Each tore open his flesh, leaving wounds that would take quite some time to heal.

Even more terrifyingly,?utterly?inscrutable sword qi lingered in each of his wounds.

Despite Dongguo Hai’s peak Spiritual Incarnation Realm cultivation, he couldn’t expel it from his body!

Splurt!

Suddenly, Dongguo Hai felt a stinging pain in his left arm. A streak of sword qi had carved open another bloody gash, tearing the flesh and spraying fresh blood.

I?can’t let things go on like this!?A maddened, decisive look appeared in Dongguo Hai’s eyes.

He was well aware that the longer this went on, the greater his disadvantage, and the more likely this ended with his death.

“Activate!” Dongguo Hai’s voice boomed like spring thunder.

A streak of the night condensed into a talisman and shot out of the crown of his head.

The talisman was only about the size of a palm, and it was emblazoned with a strange and imposing totem——

Within a dark vision of purgatory, a pair of unearthly eyes blazed with black flames.

Boom!

As the talisman shot forth, its aura alone enveloped the landscape in a terrifying, oppressive atmosphere.

Everything trembled, and the mountains and rivers lost their color.

What kind of treasure is that?

Terror rose in the spectating cultivators’ hearts.

“The God-Burning Talisman!” Dongguo Feng’s pupils constricted as he recognized it. It was an Imperial treasure the Dongguo Family had passed down for generations.

Rumor had it that it had been forged from the Yingzhao Trueblood of an Imperial expert, while the image on its surface depicted the Yingzhao’s birthplace: the Night Hill! action

Using this talisman was simple, but it required the blood of a Dongguo Family member as a trigger, as well as one of their ancestral legacies.

Dongguo Feng’s heart shook, and he was visibly conflicted.

He would have preferred to kill Su Yi himself; he wasn’t willing to just watch as such a legendary genius of the Dao of the Sword?died?beneath a talisman.

But he was all too aware that the grand elder… wouldn’t show any mercy!

“Su Yi, for a little?whelp?like you, dying beneath our clan’s family-protecting talisman is an honor; proceed to the Nine Springs with a smile on your face!” Dongguo Hai said cruelly, his tone indifferent.

However, Su Yi just laughed. “A talisman, that’s all. It’s not enough to enable someone on the verge of death to do whatever he pleases.”

Beneath the onlookers’ flabbergasted gazes, Su Yi casually put away the Abstruse God Sword, then said softly, “Explode!

It was just one word, yet it was like a divine decree.

The gashes covering Dongguo Hai’s body lit up, bursting with dazzling sword light.

Dongguo Hai visibly lost his composure. He tried to activate the God-Burning talisman, but to his astonishment, the streaks of sword qi remaining in his wounds seemed to be resonating with each other, forming a strange restriction inside him.

It was as if his entire cultivation base had been instantly sealed; he couldn’t move a muscle.

Then——

The restriction formed of remnants of sword qi erupted inside him like a long pent-up volcano.

“No—!” Dongguo Hai cried out in terror.

His body burst into pieces, spraying the sky with blood and fragmented flesh.

It was like a crimson firework blooming beneath the dome of heaven, beautiful, yet horrifying.

The entire area fell silent.

.

The crowd’s eyes widened, and they stood there in a daze.

Several Dongguo Family experts, including someone on the verge of stepping into the Spiritual Revolution Realm had… exploded, just like that?

Even more terrifying was that they had no idea just how Dongguo Hai had died!

Only the top experts among the crowd realized that Dongguo Hai’s death was due to lingering threats left in his wounds.

The power left in his wounds had accumulated until suddenly, it burst forth, taking his life!

When Yu Jiuzhen and the other top experts present realized this, their hair stood on end.

They suddenly realized something.

Before this battle began, Qing Ya said she wanted Dongguo Hai to hurry up and explode so that she didn’t have to look at him any longer.

And Su Yi had agreed!

Now, Dongguo Hai?had?really… exploded…

All of this was unquestionably far too terrifying, and it proved that even before he’d attacked, Su Yi had already decided to use this method to kill Dongguo Hai!

“Was it fun to watch?” Su Yi looked at Qing Ya and asked with a smile.

She hurriedly shook her head. “It was satisfying, but his death wasn’t at all fun to watch. It was actually quite disgusting.”

Su Yi couldn’t help but laugh.

When they saw this, the crowd’s hearts churned with emotion once more.

“Grand Elder…!”

The various Dongguo clansmen were visibly overcome with grief and despondency.

Of them, Dongguo Feng looked the most conflicted.

He stood there in a daze, his face pallid, his expression wooden, and his eyes blank.

No matter what, Dongguo Hai and his followers were his seniors. Moreover, they were his relatives.

He’d just watched, helpless, as they lost their lives. Of course Dongguo Feng was grief-stricken! How could he not be?

“If you want to avenge them, I welcome you to try at any time.” Su Yi suddenly looked at Dongguo Feng. “Of course, if the Dongguo Family wants revenge, you’d best be prepared to pay the corresponding price.

“Right, this treasure is no more useful to me than chicken ribs. You’d best hold onto it.”

With that, Su Yi swung his sleeves.

Whoosh!

The God-Burning Talisman hovering in midair blurred into a streak of black light and shot toward Dongguo Feng.
