Shadowless's true body was forced to reveal itself after a shadow shattered, his face still holding an expression of extreme terror and disbelief.
He could not figure out how a woman who appeared to be merely at the Heavenly Realm could see through the origin of his Thousand Shadows Escape, and how she possessed speed and strength that surpassed the King Realm.
Reflected clearly in his pupils was the figure of Ling Xi, who had appeared before him at some unknown moment. Her eyes were calm and devoid of ripples, yet they made him feel terror from the depths of his divine soul. It was the instinctive awe of the weak facing a superior, like an ant looking up at the vast sky.
Ling Xi's fingertip gently tapped the center of his brow.
There was no grand display of power, no shockwave of energy.
But all of Shadowless's vitality, his divine soul, and even the traces of his existence were completely erased from their very origins under this tap, obliterated by an absolutely overbearing and irresistible force.
This was the Dao-Severing Finger created by Ling Xi in her previous life. Even though her cultivation base had not yet recovered, she could still activate it with her Heavenly Realm spiritual energy to directly annihilate her opponent's origin, leaving them without even the chance to enter the cycle of reincarnation.
His body stiffened in place, then, like weathered rock, shattered inch by inch, turning into the finest dust that scattered in the wind.
Not even a trace of blood or a speck of residual energy was left behind. His body and soul were utterly destroyed, completely wiped from the world in the most direct and overbearing manner!
Ling Xi slowly retracted her finger, as if she had merely done something insignificant.
Her expression remained as calm as still water; not even the hem of her clothes was messed up.
The entire battlefield fell into a deathly silence, as if even the wind had stopped flowing.
However, when Ling Xi's gaze inadvertently swept over her surroundings, she clearly caught the unconcealable shock and horror on everyone's faces.
Eldest Martial Brother Xiao Ruobai's exaggerated gasp, Second Brother Fang Hanyu's fleeting look of astonishment, the little fatty in the cocoon of light whose eyes were about to pop out, and the nearly stagnant fluctuations of divine sense from those hidden in the dark...
Oh no!
Ling Xi's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and a thought entirely contrary to her aloof exterior popped up.
Just now, I was only focused on solving the problem and casually used the Dao-Severing Finger... It seems... I was a bit too high-profile!
She could even imagine how her master would lecture her if he saw this scene.
Thinking of this, Ling Xi's usually unruffled state of mind actually rippled with a rare fluctuation, like a small pebble dropped into an icy lake.
Subconsciously, she gently bit her lower lip with her pearly white teeth, a fleeting trace of imperceptible chagrin and guilt flashing through her clear eyes.
What do I do, what do I do... Master told us to keep a low profile... I'm definitely going to get nagged when I go back...
Murong Qiu's frantic roar caught in his throat. He froze in place, the hand holding his sword trembling violently. Looking at the spot where Shadowless had vanished, it was as if he had seen a ghost. Boundless chills rushed from the soles of his feet straight to the crown of his head!
Fast! Too fast! So fast that he, a King Realm sword cultivator, could not comprehend it at all! This was not speed, this was... the crushing weight of profound laws!
Xiao Ruobai gasped, rubbed his nose, and muttered, Third Junior Sister... isn't this a bit too violent...
He said this, but his eyes flickered with excited light, clearly admiring this absolutely overbearing style.
But admiration aside, an unprecedented pressure quietly rose in his heart.
If I remember correctly, this Third Junior Sister of mine... was only at the Foundation Establishment Realm when she joined the sect, right? How long has it been? She has actually reached the Heavenly Realm, and is absurdly strong!
The disciples Master takes in are truly more monstrous than the last.
As the Eldest Martial Brother, if I don't risk my life to train, I'm really going to be left far behind by my junior sister! No, no, once this matter is settled, I must go find more powerful opponents to hone myself!
A trace of astonishment also flashed through Fang Hanyu's eyes before returning to calm, but the gaze he directed at Murong Qiu was already like looking at a dead man.
Inside the light cocoon, Fatty Wang's mouth was open wide enough to stuff an egg into. His mind went blank, leaving only a single thought.
Senior Sister... instantly killed that terrifying assassin?! This Senior Sister is even more savage than Big Brother and Second Brother!
The voyeurs in the dark held their breath at this moment.
Shadowless's fall was not a battle; it was an overwhelming crush, an obliteration! The strength of this green-clad woman exceeded the boundaries of their imagination!
After today, the name Azure-Clad God of Killers will probably spread throughout the Eastern Region!
Meanwhile, at the edge of the battlefield, in a corner completely blended with the shadows of the shattered rocks, Shi Wanshan's massive body remained as motionless as a boulder, even his faintest breathing and heartbeat seemingly halted.
He was fully circulating his breath-concealing technique, protecting them in secret and ready to provide support at any moment.
However, his heart at this moment was far less calm than his outward appearance; towering waves had already been stirred up within!
Mother of mercy... Junior Martial Brother Gu... just what breed of monstrous disciples has he taken in?!
His gaze swept back and forth across Xiao Ruobai, Fang Hanyu, and Ling Xi, growing more alarmed the more he looked.
He knew very well that his Junior Martial Brother Gu was unfathomable and possessed heaven-defying means, able to bring out Emperor Scriptures, Dao Enlightenment Tea, and peerless secret realms... He had long known that the disciples Gu Changge taught would definitely be extraordinary!
But he never expected it to be exaggerated to this extent!
This kid Ruobai, his battle intent pierces the heavens, growing braver with every fight; this is clearly walking the invincible path of proving the Dao through combat! Hanyu's sword intent is profound, like the dawn of primal chaos; he was simply born for the Sword Dao!
And this little girl, from the looks of it, she should be the new disciple Ling Xi that Junior Brother took in a while ago.
That strike just now... that speed and that finger technique, the level of Dao rhythm contained within it, I actually couldn't quite understand it?! Is this really something a Heavenly Realm cultivator can do?!
Shi Wanshan smacked his lips, feeling his worldview being rubbed repeatedly against the ground.
He knew his junior brother was formidable, but he didn't expect him to be so formidable as to cultivate his disciples into such common-sense-breaking monsters!
Junior Martial Brother Gu, oh Junior Martial Brother Gu... how is this teaching disciples... you are simply... creating gods!
He muttered to himself, his tone full of complex emotions—shock, envy...
They are only at the Heavenly Realm... yet they can execute such profound methods... If they were to break through to the Sage Realm, wouldn't that be disastrous? Wouldn't they really ascend to the heavens?!
When that time comes, I'm afraid even I, their Martial Uncle, won't be able to defeat them!
Thinking of this, an absurd yet incredibly real thought suddenly grew wildly in his heart like weeds, making even a Sage Realm expert like him feel a burst of alarm.
I've worked so hard for so many years, and only managed to become a Sage by a stroke of luck relying on the fortuitous encounters given by Junior Brother...
But look at them! This potential! This momentum! If... if I also went to become Junior Martial Brother Gu's disciple... would I... would I also be able to...
As soon as this thought popped up, Shi Wanshan startled himself, his old face instantly flushing bright red with shame.
Bah, bah, bah! Shi Wanshan, oh Shi Wanshan! Do you have no shame! You are the Peak Master of Qingyue Peak! You are their Martial Uncle! How can you have such thoughts of deceiving your master, destroying your ancestors, and lowering your own seniority!
But... this thought was like a curse, impossible to shake off.
Watching the performance of those three monstrous talents below, and then recalling Gu Changge's unfathomable methods and the heaven-defying cultivation conditions on Purple Bamboo Peak...
His yearning for a higher cultivation realm was actually, little by little, overwhelming his so-called face and seniority.
"Hmm... this matter... requires careful consideration, careful consideration..."
Shi Wanshan's eyes flickered as he stroked his beard, actually beginning to seriously weigh the feasibility of this absurd plan.
ng to die together with you." Lin Xuan is dead, his body thrown into the river by his scumbag lover and her accomplice. She, the president of the Su Group, is decisive, ruthless, and ice-cold. For three days and three nights, she had his body fished out of the river, and without hesitation, she kissed the bloated corpse of Lin Xuan. She laid down beside him in a cold coffin, their fingers intertwined, a smile lingering on her lips as she closed her eyes. The noble and cold-hearted woman, only bending for one man—Lin Xuan.

ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?

The kitchen knife he casually forged became a peerless divine weapon, causing numerous experts to fight desperately for it. The young disciple he took in became an immortal lord that led an era, due to cultivating the techniques Ye Feng taught him. Even the skeletons he looked down on the most were ominous demon kings that suppressed countless worlds. Many years later, looking at the void shattered with a punch, Ye Feng murmured to himself: It turns out the peerless kings were myself all along...
