Chapter 493: Annihilation Propound Thunder!
One man against an entire nation.
Li Yun had truly done it.
"Impossible. This is impossible."
Crown Prince Xing Tian’s eyes bulged with fury, and his heart was filled with extreme shock and rage. He could not believe that Li Yun had killed all of his subordinates with a single sword strike.
After all, among his subordinates were dozens of experts at the peak of the 9th level of the Mortal Core Realm. There were five who ranked within the top twenty of the Outer Sect, two who ranked within the top ten, and even Xing Chenhao, who ranked third. Such a lineup could almost sweep through the entire Outer Sect, yet this luxurious force had been defeated by Li Yun alone.
All of this felt like a massive slap that had ruthlessly struck his face.
’Kill him. He must be killed.’
Crown Prince Xing Tian roared madly in his heart. ’If this person does not die, he will become a calamity for my Starheaven Ancient Kingdom. No matter what, he must be killed.’
At that moment, as if sensing something, Li Yun also turned his gaze toward Crown Prince Xing Tian. An astonishing killing intent instantly surged from his body.
All obstacles had already been cleared.
Next, it was time to settle the final score with Crown Prince Xing Tian.
"Crown Prince Xing Tian, your time of death has come."
Li Yun sneered and slowly walked toward him.
"Li Yun, do you truly intend to make an enemy of me?"
Crown Prince Xing Tian’s face was as dark as water, gloomy enough to drip. "You have defeated so many of my subordinates and trampled on my dignity before so many people. That should be enough for you to feel satisfied. Withdraw now, and I can pretend that none of this ever happened. Otherwise, do not blame me for being ruthless."
"Oh?"
Li Yun sneered without the slightest restraint. "Then I would like to see just how ruthless you can be. No matter what you say today, you are doomed to die."
"How dare you?"
Crown Prince Xing Tian roared angrily. "Do you really think I, the crown prince of a nation, am a soft persimmon you can squeeze as you please? I would like to see how much combat power you still have left after using that attack."
Boom!
As soon as his words fell, an astonishing aura erupted from Crown Prince Xing Tian’s body.
That aura had actually reached the Half-Step Earthly Core Realm.
"Violet Thunder Tribulation Eye!"
A crack suddenly appeared between Crown Prince Xing Tian’s eyebrows, and a purple vertical eye emerged from it. Blinding electric light shot out from that eye, dazzling like the judgment of a deity descending upon all living beings, carrying the power to destroy everything in its path.
Back in the Chaos Flame Secret Realm, Crown Prince Xing Tian had once used the Violet Thunder Eye. However, that had only been a high-grade Profound Rank martial skill. This Violet Thunder Tribulation Eye was an upgraded version, a top-grade Profound Rank martial skill.
"Die!"
He roared angrily.
The blinding electric light crackled fiercely and shot straight toward Li Yun’s heart.
Li Yun gave a cold smile and only used an ordinary sword attack. Astonishing Sword Qi burst forth from his sword, and its power reached an extreme level. Although the purple lightning was formidable, it was still torn apart by a single sword strike.
"Die."
Then, Li Yun’s expression turned cold and merciless.
Without the slightest hesitation, he swung his sword down toward Crown Prince Xing Tian’s head.
"Ah!"
Feeling the threat of death, Crown Prince Xing Tian finally went completely berserk.
"Li Yun, you forced me into this."
Crown Prince Xing Tian’s disheveled hair danced wildly as he roared, "Before entering the Chaos Heaven Secret Realm, I once requested an ultimate weapon from Senior Brother Qianmo. Originally, I did not want to waste this weapon on you. But now, you have forced my hand."
"To die under the Annihilating Profound Thunder is something you should be proud of, even in death."
Boom!
In the next moment, the cyan thunder bead completely erupted.
Instantly, a terrifying force that seemed capable of destroying heaven and earth spread wildly outward.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Thunderous sounds rang out one after another, and the void collapsed piece by piece. Under such terrifying power, even the sun and moon seemed to lose their radiance, and even heaven and earth appeared to tremble. This force truly seemed capable of destroying the world and obliterating all things.
The cultivators who were slightly closer to this force did not even have time to dodge. They were directly swept up by the terrifying power. In an instant, those peak 9th level Mortal Core Realm cultivators were shattered into dust, leaving not even a trace behind as they vanished completely between heaven and earth.
Seeing this terrifying scene, the faces of all the cultivators present changed wildly.
"What is that thing? How can it possess such dreadful power?"
"This level of power is equivalent to a full-force strike from an Earthly Core Realm expert. Run. Run for your lives."
All the cultivators scattered frantically.
Even Princess Yuehan and the others had their expressions change sharply, turning extremely grim.
"Annihilating Profound Thunder. Crown Prince Xing Tian actually brought such a killing weapon."
"This Annihilating Profound Thunder is a low grade Heaven Rank disposable spiritual artifact. Once it erupts, its power can rival a full-force strike from a 1st or 2nd level Earthly Core Realm expert. This time, Li Yun is definitely dead."
"Forget Li Yun. If we are caught in the blast of the Annihilating Profound Thunder, all of us will die too. Hurry and retreat."
"Go. Leave quickly."
In an instant, Princess Yuehan and the others, who had returned to watch the battle, retreated frantically. However, when they looked at Li Yun, a trace of pity appeared in their eyes.
Once the Annihilating Profound Thunder erupted, even a Half-Step Earthly Core Realm expert would be severely injured. Although Li Yun had repeatedly created miracles and had even forced Crown Prince Xing Tian into desperate straits, there was simply no possibility of survival before this killing weapon.
A peerless genius who had only just begun to rise was about to fall here.
It was pitiful and lamentable.
