"God-slaying Spear!"
"Pfft—"
The Martial Artist at the forefront suddenly froze, and the light in his eyes dispersed instantly.
Before he could react, a golden Sword Qi had already cut across his neck.
"Old Five!"
The remaining four people were furious, their eyes almost popping out, as they all turned and charged toward the source of the Sword Qi.
Their True Qi connected and formed a huge net of True Qi, crushing all the trees within ten zhang into powder.
"Break!"
Gu Sheng shouted fiercely, and the True Qi within him surged abruptly.
His aura climbed rapidly, breaking through his former limits in an instant.
"Nirvana Three Profound Changes, Second Change!"
The golden Sword Qi swelled against the wind, transforming into a sky-shattering length of several zhang. The Sword Qi tore through the air with a piercing shriek.
"Join forces to resist!"
The four Earth Martial Realm martial artists simultaneously unleashed their strongest defenses, forming four thick Light Shields with their True Qi.
"Boom—"
Amidst the deafening explosion, four figures flew out, spraying blood from their mouths.
Their meridians were severed inch by inch in the aftermath of the Sword Qi, and they were already crippled when they fell.
"This... this is impossible!"
Meng Xiao turned pale as his lips trembled.
"You’re clearly only at the Xuanwu Realm..."
Xie Qingxuan stood not far away, her beautiful eyes sparkling with surprise.
She had never imagined that this seemingly ordinary young man would possess such terrifying power.
"Gu Sheng..."
She whispered softly, her heartbeat accelerating uncontrollably.
"Bastard!"
Meng Xiao suddenly sneered, taking out a Jade Talisman from his Storage Ring and crushing it fiercely.
"You forced me to do this!"
As the Jade Talisman shattered, a suffocating pressure descended suddenly.
A phantom figure formed in the air, though blurry, its terrifying aura made the entire forest tremble.
"Heavenly Martial Incarnation!"
Xie Qingxuan exclaimed in shock.
"Gu Sheng, run! This is an incarnation of a Heavenly Martial Realm expert!"
"Hahaha, run? Too late!"
Meng Xiao laughed wildly, pointing at Gu Sheng.
"Ancestor, kill him!"
The Heavenly Martial Incarnation slowly raised its hand, gathering a terrifying power capable of destroying mountains.
But at this critical moment, Gu Sheng’s figure suddenly dissipated into specks of golden light in the air.
"What?!"
Meng Xiao’s smile froze on his face.
"Fool, that was just my Spirit Embryo Incarnation."
Gu Sheng’s voice came from the other side of the forest, and his true body emerged.
In a few leaps, he reached Meng Xiao, and Gang Qi in his hand condensed into a Qi Sword aimed straight at Meng Xiao’s throat.
"No!"
At the brink of life and death, Meng Xiao burst out with unprecedented potential, barely avoiding the fatal strike. The Qi Sword grazed past his neck, leaving a gash.
"You can’t kill me!"
Meng Xiao shouted hysterically.
"It’s not easy for a young friend to have such cultivation at your age."
The Ancestor’s voice was hoarse, carrying an air of condescending benevolence.
"Why not just let today’s matter pass?"
"Ancestor!"
Meng Xiao couldn’t believe it, his eyes widening.
"He cut off my arm, how can..."
"Silence!"
The Ancestor snapped coldly, and Meng Xiao immediately ceased speaking.
Gu Sheng’s mouth curled into a mocking smile.
"Old man, your attitude toward reconciliation is insincere. If you’re afraid, show some sincerity; if not, then let’s fight!"
"Insolent!"
The Ancestor’s eyes flashed with cold light.
"I, considering your difficulties in cultivating, am giving you a way out, and yet you do not know when to be grateful!"
"Hahaha!"
Gu Sheng laughed up to the sky, his laughter filled with disdain.
"Old geezer, stop pretending here. Your Meng people ambushed first, and now that you can’t win, you want to reconcile? How is there such a good thing in the world!"
Meng Xiao gritted his teeth at the side.
"Ancestor, this brat is extremely arrogant and cannot be spared!"
The Ancestor’s face turned gloomy.
"Kid, I’ve given you a chance."
Before the words were finished, his aura suddenly exploded, and the pressure several times stronger than before crushed toward Gu Sheng.
The ground cracked, trees broke, and the Xie siblings were directly pressed to the ground, bleeding from their mouths and noses.
