Chapter 753 - 749: The Unrivaled Wan Wushen

Chapter 753: Chapter 749: The Unrivaled Wan Wushen

"Is that so?"

The words were soft, yet they struck the five men like a clap of thunder.

Because that was the voice of Wan Wushen.

Wan Wushen had crept up on them, yet none of them had noticed. The realization terrified them.

The five tensed, their gazes sweeping across the void.

But the void was empty. Wan Wushen was either hiding within it or wasn’t there at all.

"Don’t be so nervous. I’m a man of my word. There’s still a good hour until dawn."

Wan Wushen’s voice echoed again.

This time, Xia Yunpeng’s eyes narrowed before he struck without hesitation.

His hand shot out like a claw, tearing the void open.

Through the rift in space, the other four saw an incredibly dense black mist.

Needless to say, that was Wan Wushen’s hiding place.

The black mist there swirled and transformed into a massive black hand that shot toward Xia Yunpeng’s claw.

The next moment, Xia Yunpeng was thrown backward, and the rift in the void vanished.

The eyes of the other four widened in shock.

’A Sealed Martial Realm Sixth Layer expert can’t even faze Wan Wushen?!’

"His cultivation is at the Peak of the Sealed Martial Realm Sixth Layer. If he dares to show himself, the combined power of the five of us will ensure he never leaves this place alive," Xia Yunpeng said grimly, steadying himself.

After speaking, his eyes blazed as he stared into the void with a cold smirk.

At the same time, he transmitted a message to the others using his divine sense. ’From now on, we communicate telepathically. Wan Wushen’s Ten Thousand Demons Godslaying Skill is incredibly strange. He could be hundreds of miles away and still use it to peer through the void and observe us.’

’So that’s how it is. I knew Wan Wushen couldn’t be *that* terrifying,’ Xia Yunhai replied via divine sense, a wave of realization washing over him.

’It’s not Wan Wushen who’s terrifying, but his Ten Thousand Demons Godslaying Skill,’ Xi Chenghua transmitted.

’If we establish our domains, I refuse to believe he can break through,’ Lao Xuexin also transmitted.

’Let’s do it! I’m worried his true target isn’t me, but Young Master Lin,’ Zhao Yuanzhong transmitted, his heart filled with a nagging suspicion about Wan Wushen’s motives.

’Him...’ Xia Yunhai transmitted, his disdain palpable.

SPURT!

Just then, both Bai Yu and Xu Zihao coughed up blood as they regained consciousness.

They still hadn’t managed to break through to the next realm.

The two exchanged a bitter smile.

But then, they both turned to look at Lin Hao.

Lin Hao remained completely still.

But they both knew that Lin Hao had reached a critical moment and would awaken at any time.

Those two wisps of primal qi were the best proof.

"You two," Xia Yunhai began, "Wan Wushen is about to arrive. You’ve both reached the Sealed Martial Realm. Isn’t it time you pulled your weight?"

Although he spoke as if Wan Wushen was nothing special, he hoped to have more people fighting.

If Zhao Yuanzhong was killed, he would be next.

Bai Yu and Xu Zihao turned their heads at the same time. Bai Yu glared at Xia Yunhai, but Xu Zihao’s gaze lingered on Xia Yunpeng next to him.

"Why are you poisoned? Did Wan Wushen already appear?"

Xu Zihao’s words sent a shock through everyone present.

"Poisoned?" The word startled even Xia Yunpeng himself; he hadn’t felt a thing.

But thinking of Wan Wushen’s methods, he already believed it.

So, Xia Yunpeng hurriedly circulated his True Essence.

After a moment, he said, "You must be mistaken. I haven’t found anything unusual."

Xu Zihao pointed to his own head.

Xia Yunpeng’s expression changed. A moment later, his body convulsed as if struck by lightning, and he coughed up a mouthful of fresh blood.

He had cautiously tried to mobilize his Divine Soul, but the instant he did, it felt as though his skull would split apart.

Xia Yunpeng was horrified, a cold chill washing over him.

If Xu Zihao hadn’t noticed in time, then later, when he inevitably tried to use his Divine Soul forcefully, both his soul and his head would have surely exploded.

"Is there anything you can do?"

Xu Zihao shook his head. "There’s not enough time now."

"At least I can still use my cultivation," Xia Yunpeng said with a pained smile.

Xu Zihao still shook his head. "In fifteen minutes, at most, this Shadowless Poison will have spread through your entire body. You won’t be able to use your cultivation then."

"Damn that Wan Wushen!" Xia Yunpeng roared in fury. He immediately thrust out his hand and tore open the void once more.

This time, however, all they saw through the rift was a vast, rolling mountain range.

Wan Wushen had left the area.

Xia Yunpeng dejectedly pulled back his hand.

"Two at the Fifth Layer, and two at the Fourth. We’re no match for Wan Wushen," Xia Yunhai said, a flicker of terror in his eyes.

Bai Yu and Xu Zihao glanced at each other and said in unison, "You’re wrong. It’s not four of us. It’s six."

"I’d like to see just how strong this Wan Wushen really is."

"I’m curious to find out myself."

Bai Yu and Xu Zihao spoke one after the other, a blazing battle intent visible in both their eyes.

A flash of admiration appeared in the eyes of Xi Chenghua and the other two men.

Though Bai Yu and Xu Zihao’s cultivation levels were lower than Xia Yunhai’s, their courage surpassed his a thousandfold.

"Wan Wushen, you’re nothing but a coward! If you’ve got any real spine, face us in an open fight!" Zhao Yuanzhong suddenly roared, his voice thundering across the land.

The words of Bai Yu and Xu Zihao had infected him, filling him with boundless fighting spirit.

Even if he were to die, he would die in a blaze of glory.

"You are not yet worthy," a spectral voice whispered.

The next moment, the void ripped open, and a mass of black qi appeared.

Wan Wushen had arrived!

His cultivation was at the Peak of the Sealed Martial Realm Sixth Layer. With Xia Yunpeng out of the fight, the two Fifth-Layers and two Fourth-Layers were no match for him.

"Time’s up. I’ll be sending you on your way," Wan Wushen said, striking at Zhao Yuanzhong.

This time, he didn’t even bother using the Ten Thousand Demons Godslaying Skill, simply swiping a claw at Zhao Yuanzhong.

But a strike from a Sealed Martial Realm Sixth Layer expert was absolutely terrifying.

The power of his Martial Realm’s domain locked down the surrounding space, making everyone feel as if they were suffocating.

With a single move, he drained all the primal energy from the area.

Zhao Yuanzhong roared and directly unleashed his bloodline power.

Xi Chenghua and Lao Xuexin also attacked, intending to fight Wan Wushen together.

Bai Yu and Xu Zihao wanted to join in, but were horrified to find they couldn’t even move.

The Sealed Martial Realm Sixth Layer was too powerful. Within his Martial Realm’s domain, Wan Wushen was the absolute master, suppressing all things.

Above Bai Yu’s head, the Divine Soul Sword shone with a brilliant light, but it could not strike.

Xu Zihao’s palm was frozen in mid-air, unable to move another inch.

"Xia Yunhai, what are you waiting for? Attack!" Bai Yu shouted, seeing that Xia Yunhai still hadn’t moved.

"Don’t forget, you’re next. If you don’t fight now, no one will be left to help you," Xu Zihao added.

Xia Yunhai still didn’t move.

"Yunhai, if you don’t do something, we’ll all die here!" behind them, the incapacitated Xia Yunpeng cried out.

Xia Yunhai’s expression changed, and he finally made his move.

He too unleashed his bloodline power.

The Sealed Martial Realm Sixth Layer was too strong; without using their bloodline power, they couldn’t hope to break free from the suppression.

"A pack of worthless mutts!"

Wan Wushen’s voice echoed from the void.

The next moment, a muffled groan was heard.

Zhao Yuanzhong’s body was sent flying, blood spraying wildly through the air.

His body had been pierced by Wan Wushen’s claw.

Meanwhile, Wan Wushen’s figure flickered through the void, causing the attacks from Xi Chenghua and the others to strike nothing but empty air.

"I told you I would make you die a painful death, but..."

As Wan Wushen spoke, his entire form suddenly vanished from the void.

Bai Yu’s and Xu Zihao’s faces fell.
