Chapter 438 439: Two Semi-Saints

"This..."

Seeing this, the faces of the surrounding crowd were filled with utter bewilderment.

Su Mo actually tore up the King of Reincarnation's Holy Edict?

It was imbued with Holy Might!

Even if he wasn't going to let the Celestial Envy Old Monster use it, he could have used it himself. It could have multiplied his power several times over.

'Why would he tear it up?'

But they had no idea that Su Mo couldn't care less about it.

Su Mo forcefully tossed the shredded Holy Edict into the air. "You wanted the Holy Edict, right? Here, you can have it back."

FLUTTER!

The fragments of the Holy Edict scattered all over the ground.

"You... you... you..."

The Celestial Envy Old Monster was heartbroken. He scrambled to get on the ground and pick up the pieces of the Holy Edict.

He wanted to piece the fragments back together.

But just then...

Suddenly, a great gust of wind swept in, carrying all the pieces of the Holy Edict into the sky and scattering them.

Now, the Holy Edict was completely gone.

The Celestial Envy Old Monster's eyes turned crimson. "You, Su! You forced my hand! I swear I'll tear you to shreds today! Aaaargh!"

BOOM!

Along with the Celestial Envy Old Monster's furious roar, scarlet flames began to burn all around his body.

"Burning his bloodline?"

"No, this is more than just burning his bloodline. He's burning his heart's essence blood."

"Is the Celestial Envy Old Monster giving up his life?"

The crowd stared at the Celestial Envy Old Monster in horror.

Under normal circumstances, one could survive burning their bloodline, though their strength would be greatly diminished in the future, and they would be unable to advance further.

But burning one's heart's essence blood was a different matter.

It meant certain death!

However, the power unleashed by burning one's heart's essence blood far surpassed that of merely burning one's bloodline.

At this moment, everyone present thought the Celestial Envy Old Monster had gone mad.

"The Celestial Envy Old Monster's strength right now... he must be a Semi-Saint, right?"

"He is indeed a Semi-Saint."

"If this goes badly, Young Master Su is in for a disaster."

Patriarch Zhao, Patriarch Lan, and the others had faces full of worry.

They guessed that Su Mo also possessed the strength of a Semi-Saint.

But the Celestial Envy Old Monster was determined to die, willing to burn his heart's essence blood just to kill Su Mo. Even if Su Mo could win, he would have to pay a terrible price.

And that wasn't all.

The Celestial Envy Old Monster intended to call on Li Yuandao.

"Patriarch Li, this boy's strength is absolutely terrifying. If your Li Family doesn't want to suffer losses and follow in my footsteps, then you will work with me to kill him. Otherwise, you will regret it."

The Celestial Envy Old Monster warned.

Li Yuandao agreed without a second thought. "Fine, I will help you!"

He also wanted to eliminate Su Mo as quickly as possible.

He wanted to avoid any further complications.

He had long since sensed something strange and extremely dangerous about Su Mo.

"Wait for me to take a Blast Pill."

Li Yuandao took a handkerchief from his robes. After unfolding it, a dark, black elixir was revealed inside.

"He really has a Blast Pill!"

Patriarch Zhao said in shock.

Beside him, Zhao Chengru asked, confused, "Patriarch, what is a Blast Pill?"

Patriarch Zhao said in a grave voice, "It's a type of elixir that can stimulate a person's latent potential. After taking it, one can boost their strength to the absolute maximum."

"What? Such a Treasure actually exists in this world?"

Zhao Chengru said in disbelief.

Patriarch Zhao continued, "Judging by its quality, Li Yuandao's Blast Pill is a Ninth-Grade Elixir. It's enough for him to break the limits of the Martial Emperor Great Perfection Realm and temporarily ascend to the Semi-Saint Level."

"This..."

Zhao Chengru was stunned.

The Celestial Envy Old Monster frowned. "Patriarch Li, aren't you being a bit unfair? You had a Treasure like this and didn't take it out sooner?"

If he had also possessed a Blast Pill, he wouldn't have needed to sacrifice his life by burning his heart's essence blood.

Unfortunately, he was a step too late!

Li Yuandao chuckled. "This is a life-saving Treasure of mine. Naturally, I couldn't take it out so early. It must be used at a critical moment to realize its greatest value."

"Enough with the useless chatter. Hurry up and take it."

The Celestial Envy Old Monster urged him on.

He didn't blame Li Yuandao too much, because his own death was already a certainty.

Right now, he only wanted to butcher Su Mo with his own hands.

It was Su Mo who had forced him into this corner.

GULP!

Li Yuandao swallowed the Blast Pill.

BOOM!

The next second, the Spiritual Qi in his body erupted violently, reaching the Semi-Saint Level. He even began to release Holy Might.

Compared to the Celestial Envy Old Monster, who had been driven into a corner and was burning his heart's essence blood, Li Yuandao was even stronger.

WHOOSH!

The Holy Might spread throughout the area, causing everyone to break out in a cold sweat.

These were two Semi-Saints!

'Can Su Mo defeat them?'

"Charge with me!"

Li Yuandao roared and charged swiftly toward Su Mo.

The Celestial Envy Old Monster attacked at the same time.

BOOM!

The two of them attacked Su Mo from the left and right simultaneously, completely cutting off his escape route.

"Boundless Destruction Saber!"

The Celestial Envy Old Monster roared as he swung a terrifying, blood-red saber light at Su Mo.

Meanwhile, Li Yuandao threw a powerful punch.

The people in the crowd couldn't bear to watch.

Who could possibly withstand a pincer attack from two Semi-Saint powerhouses?

BOOM!

The blood-red saber light and the crest of the fist slammed violently into each other, leveling the entire Zhao Family estate.

Everyone simultaneously shot up into the sky.

When they saw the destroyed Zhao Family estate, they were all terrified.

It was a complete disaster!

The Zhao Family's main hall had been practically turned to dust.

Fortunately, they weren't at the center of the battle. Otherwise, if they had been swept up in the attack from Li Yuandao and the Celestial Envy Old Monster, they would have undoubtedly died.

"Hahaha, I've finally killed that brat."

The Celestial Envy Old Monster laughed with excitement.

Li Yuandao nodded slightly.

'No matter how strong Su Mo was, it's impossible for him to have survived the powerful joint attack from the two of us.'

Li Yuandao turned around. "Next up, it's the Zhao Family's turn."

The Zhao Family and the Li Family were mortal enemies.

He had originally planned to borrow the King of Reincarnation's power to annihilate the Zhao Family after his arrival.

But that was no longer necessary.

Because he had taken the Blast Pill and reached the Semi-Saint Level.

The Celestial Envy Old Monster said, "Patriarch Li, seeing as you helped me kill that brat, I'll lend you a hand as well and wipe out the Zhao Family."

"Many thanks!"

The two looked coldly toward Patriarch Zhao.

However, Patriarch Zhao wasn't the least bit flustered. He just stared intently at the center of the battlefield.

Patriarch Lan and the others did the same.

The few of them even conversed in low voices from time to time, as if they were discussing something.

"Patriarch Zhao, what do you think of the Celestial Envy Old Monster and Li Yuandao?"

"What do I think? Heh, they're nothing but farts in the wind."

"I agree, they're nothing. They've completely wasted their Semi-Saint Level power."

Hearing their discussion, Li Yuandao immediately frowned.

'These people actually think the move the Celestial Envy Old Monster and I just used wasn't strong? What a joke. That was a joint attack from two Semi-Saint powerhouses.'

Li Yuandao's face was a mask of confusion. Finally, he couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Zhao! Make yourself clear. How are the Celestial Envy Old Monster and I not strong?"

"Strong? Heh, strong my ass!"

Patriarch Zhao sneered.

Li Yuandao's face stiffened. He said coldly, "Zhao, are you fucking forcing me to tear you to shreds?"

Patriarch Zhao just pursed his lips.

Patriarch Lan pointed behind Li Yuandao. "Patriarch Li, it's not that I want to embarrass you, but I feel I should remind you: before you go tearing Patriarch Zhao to shreds, perhaps you should take a look behind you."

"Behind me?"

Li Yuandao's brow furrowed deeply.

Behind him was the spot where Su Mo had just been standing.

'Could it be... Su Mo is still alive?'
