Su Xiyan felt an overwhelming pressure bearing down on her, and in the next moment, even the surrounding temperature dropped significantly.
"How is this possible?"
Su Xiyan furrowed her brows as spiritual energy involuntarily began to manifest around her body, defending against the plummeting temperature.
"Xiyan, stay here and guard this place. I'll go meet the enemy."
Su Yuanying gave this brief instruction before heading toward the front.
Su Xiyan didn't even have time to say anything before Su Yuanying had departed.
Sang Biao went along as well, knowing he couldn't avoid this confrontation. Rather than fleeing, he decided it would be better to face it head-on – perhaps there might still be a chance for a turning point.
In the capital city, at the Monster Hunters' Guild.
Inside a villa building, five elderly men with white hair but youthful faces exchanged grave looks.
"The seal is loosening!" one of them said coldly.
"How is that possible? That seal has lasted for over a thousand years, how could it weaken so easily?" another elder responded with a dry cough.
"Ah, what's meant to come will always come. Perhaps this is fate," sighed an elder with a hunched back.
"Haven't you noticed? Two auras have vanished from the capital. They must have already gone."
The elder sitting in the middle of the group spoke in a deep voice, his penetrating gaze fixed on the distant view outside the window.
"Su City faces great danger. We old fellows should go out and stretch our muscles. Though I wonder if we can still fight after not moving for decades."
The last to speak was a lean elder with eagle-sharp eyes that commanded respect without even showing anger.
As they were talking, a hurried figure entered the room.
It was none other than Elder Xu. Upon entering, he showed great respect to the five: "Honorable Elders, terrible news! There's a situation in Su City, and there's activity at the Ghost Kiln as well. They seem to be heading toward Su City."
"We are already aware."
The leading elder responded with a light cough.
"Then... should we move out immediately?" Elder Xu asked respectfully.
"We old folks have had it easy all our lives. We thought we could enjoy our retirement in peace, but heaven has other plans. Since this is the case, let's make the journey."
The leading elder sighed deeply as he stood up first.
The others also rose to their feet, as the leading elder's decision was their decision as well.
For Su City, and for the safety of all citizens, they had no choice but to take responsibility.
In Su City.
A handsome young man stood suspended in mid-air, and beside him was another man shrouded in black mist. Though his features were unclear, the terrifying aura emanating from him was enough to distort the surrounding air.
Their mere presence caused the sky to change color.
Looking around, while the sky elsewhere remained normal, the area above the Monster Hunters' Guild was completely engulfed in darkness.
The powerful cold qi was so intense that it caused nearby plants to instantly wither and yellow.
This was a terrifying destructive force, an absolute power that commanded submission.
Su Yuanying, who had stepped forward, wore a fierce expression, not because he harbored deep hatred for the two, but because their overwhelming pressure was too horrifying.
He had to use all his strength just to barely resist it.
How terrifying must these beings be?
Su Yuanying wondered internally, completely shaken.
At least in his knowledge, he had never encountered such powerful beings before.
The opponent must be the legendary Demon Saint; nothing else could exert such tremendous pressure.
"So this is the Demon Saint?" Su Yuanying frowned. His mind was clear of all other thoughts, and he hadn't even considered escape.
Because he knew there was no possibility of escape.
Moreover, he couldn't flee – Chen Shuo needed his protection during cultivation, his daughter needed his protection, and even without them, all the people of Su City needed his protection.
As Su City's strongest monster hunter, fighting to the end was his destiny.
At this moment, he had already prepared himself for death.
While keeping his eyes on the opponent, his hands formed seals as he muttered incantations under his breath.
He released his power to its maximum, knowing that if his strongest technique couldn't at least somewhat restrict the opponent, he would never get another chance to act.
"Demon Hunter Divine Array, arise!"
Su Yuanying clapped his hands together to complete the final seal, shouting loudly as a great formation slowly rose from beneath the Monster Hunters' Guild.
This was Su Yuanying's last resort, a masterpiece created from years of accumulating his blood essence.
He knew he could never break through to become a legendary monster hunter, but with the emergence of Ghost Kings, he needed his own trump card to contend with them.
This array was originally prepared by Su Yuanying for Xiao Mingchen, intended to defeat him in one strike.
The array's power was not to be underestimated – it could easily kill even a Ghost King.
However, the array had one major flaw: it couldn't be carried around. It could only be used at fixed locations and required geographical advantages, utilizing the power of heaven and earth to display its true might.
This was the fundamental reason why Su Yuanying had chosen this location for the Monster Hunters' Guild. The site's special properties, occupying a position of extreme yang energy and containing the vitality of many living people, provided the perfect natural advantages.
Combined with his Demon Hunter Divine Array, it could launch attacks beyond normal limits.
However, since Xiao Mingchen had been easily eliminated by Chen Shuo, Su Yuanying hadn't revealed this array.
Now, at this moment, it finally found its use.
As the Demon Hunter Divine Array emerged, the surrounding cold aura was somewhat suppressed. An energy of extreme yang filled the area, bringing a glimmer of light to the pitch-black sky.
Though faint, this candle-like flame kindled hope in this moment.
"The Demon Hunter Divine Array? Interesting. I didn't expect to find such an extraordinary person under heaven. To achieve this level with just the power of a half-step legendary monster hunter – if he were allowed to grow into a true legendary monster hunter, he might become a great enemy to our Vampire clan."
The young man sneered with a hint of appreciation.
After speaking, he glanced at his attendant: "Dark Demon, I leave this to you. Don't disappoint me."
"Rest assured, master. This little array can't do anything to me."
The Dark Demon smiled contemptuously. As countless beams of holy light from the array descended, he merely waved his hand casually, completely nullifying all the attacks.
Seeing this, Su Yuanying was shocked. This array had been refined with his essence for over a decade.
Its power was enough to easily destroy a Ghost King, yet before this person, his array seemed like child's play.
u serious?" Chen Feng watched helplessly as his painstakingly trained disciple, fresh off a championship victory, publicly abandoned him. "You had your chance, but you didn’t appreciate it. Now, face the consequences of your choice!" Chen Feng possessed the "Master System," a treasure trove of supreme martial arts techniques, capable of molding ordinary individuals into peerless prodigies. "Legs like yours? A shame not to train in the Crippling Kick." "Ever heard of a palm strike that descends from the heavens?" "Auntie! I see extraordinary bone structure in you—a martial arts prodigy, one in ten thousand." The once-defiant senior disciple, now watching her juniors rise to fame one after another, dominating the internet, was consumed by endless regret.
