Chapter 207 - 236: Crushed with a Single Hand! The Celestial Blood Thieves’ Terror, The Celestial Yang Sect’s Plot
"Who is that?"
"The... The Third Elder is dead!"
...
On the silver ship, a few powerful Martial Artists stared blankly at the white-robed figure who had suddenly appeared in the sky.
Their bodies trembled.
In their line of sight...
The rain of blood scattering in all directions across the sky...
...was deeply imprinted in their eyes.
A glaring, vivid red!
Everyone’s heart trembled with shock.
This deceased Third Elder was one of the seven leaders of the Immortal Pirate Ship.
He was also an Inner Sect Elder of the Celestial Yang Sect within Cangzhou, and his Martial Arts Cultivation had even reached the Ninth Level of Dragon Mansion Realm.
But they never would have thought...
They had just arrived at this remote place and hadn’t even met the mysterious Great Sect Elder yet.
...that the Star Robed Elder would be slapped to death with a single palm strike!
As if swatting a fly!
"Go! Now, go!"
On the silver ship, a Black Robe elder with wide eyes and trembling hands immediately roared.
Beads of cold sweat, the size of soybeans, streamed down his forehead.
Soaking the collar of his robes.
And breaking the dam around his heart.
Fear and despair spread wildly through him!
BOOM—
Hearing his command, the Martial Artists controlling the ship quickly reacted, pushing its speed to the absolute limit in an instant!
The silver ship let out a roar that shook the Heart Spirit, its entire body glowing with silver light as it transformed into a silver bolt of lightning, shooting off in a certain direction.
It sped away at top velocity!
Su Bai glanced indifferently at the ship, then lowered his gaze to the small city resting in his palm.
After meeting Su Bai’s eyes, the middle-aged Martial Artist from the Demon-slaying Bureau couldn’t help but swallow.
His Heart Spirit was in a daze!
Everything that had happened in such a short time felt like a dream.
Suddenly, as if remembering something, a hint of joy appeared on his face.
He muttered softly.
"It must be the Boxing Saint!"
RUMBLE—
The next instant, he felt the world spin!
Along with it, everything he saw began to blur.
A violent roar echoed in his ears!
This feeling didn’t last long, perhaps only for a breath or two.
High in the sky, after placing the small city in his hand back in its original spot, Su Bai turned and looked in the direction where the silver ship had disappeared.
Then, he took a step forward.
Treading upon a wisp of golden light.
His entire being vanished on the spot.
「Elsewhere in the sky.」
A ship glowing with silver light broke through layers of cloud-waves, speeding towards an unknown destination.
’Thank goodness, that person didn’t give chase!’
At the ship’s bow, the Black Robe elder felt a surge of relief, not sensing Su Bai in pursuit.
But before long, his brows furrowed.
His expression gradually turned grim!
The others on the ship, with their lower Cultivation, might not have noticed anything amiss yet.
And while his own Cultivation wasn’t particularly strong, he had at least crossed the threshold of the Dragon Mansion Realm.
The strength of his Divine Thoughts was naturally considerable.
At this moment, he keenly sensed that the surrounding cloudscape didn’t seem to have changed at all.
’This means we’ve likely been flying in circles!’
’Something’s wrong!’
A deep worry appeared on the Black Robe elder’s face.
He was just about to give an order.
His deep purple lips parted slightly.
But suddenly!
As if he had seen something terrifying and dreadful, his pupils contracted abruptly.
Overwhelming terror surged through his heart.
Like a monstrous wave churning on the sea!
BANG!!
The next breath, the entire ship slammed violently into five towering golden mountain peaks!
Accompanied by despairing howls.
The silver ship exploded!
It was as if someone had lit a splendid silver firework in the heavens.
Dazzling and brilliant!
’What... is this?’
With this lingering thought, the Black Robe elder’s body was completely engulfed by the terrifying silver flames.
Immediately after, a deafening explosion echoed across the sky!
BOOM!
...
BOOM!
On the Endless Sea, a colossal black ship parted the boundless waves, roaring like a Demon Dragon emerging from the abyss as it sped forward.
At the ship’s bow, the three leaders of the Celestial Blood Thieves stared with wide eyes, their Heart Spirits trembling.
The image of the silver ship being crushed by a single hand!
It was deeply seared into their eyes.
Although no actual sound came from the image...
...it was as if ten thousand thunderbolts were crashing and roaring in their ears.
"Just... how strong is this person?"
A moment later, even the red-haired, burly man, who was always domineering, couldn’t help but say, his eyelid twitching.
And his words broke the silence.
"I don’t know."
At this moment, even the ever-composed great leader, the white-robed youth holding a Jade Cup, looked dazed as he muttered softly.
As one of their rivals, they were well aware of the Star Robed Elder’s strength.
He cultivated a special, ancient Cultivation Technique that allowed him to manifest a Star True Body, greatly enhancing his Physique for a short time!
It was rumored that after using this Cultivation Technique, he could even hold his own for a few exchanges against a Nine Tribulations Realm Great Power.
And yet, this Star Robed Elder was still...
...crushed to death by that mysterious Great Xia Boxing Saint with a single palm!
As easily as wiping out an ant.
Effortless.
Such terrifying strength was truly beyond their comprehension.
And the unknown is the most terrifying thing of all.
Just how strong was this mysterious Great Xia Boxing Saint, really?
It was unimaginable.
No one knew.
"Immediately..."
Snapping back to his senses, the white-robed youth began to speak with a grim expression, about to give an order.
But he suddenly saw the two men beside him turn deathly pale, their bodies trembling uncontrollably!
As if they had seen something utterly terrifying.
The white-robed youth followed their gaze, his brow furrowed.
He slowly looked at the bloody image that had appeared before them.
The next instant, his pupils contracted!
In the image...
...a mysterious Golden Shadow stood high in the clouds, holding a few fragments in its hand, staring indifferently in a certain direction.
And when the white-robed youth’s gaze fell upon the image...
...the mysterious Golden Shadow also looked over indifferently!
Their gazes seemed to pierce through an endless distance.
Meeting in an instant!
PTHOO!
Suddenly, the white-robed youth spat out a mouthful of blood and stumbled backward three consecutive steps.
His robes were stained with blood, his aura weakened and listless!
"Big Brother!"
The other two’s expressions changed. They cried out in alarm and rushed forward in concern.
"I’m... fine..."
The white-robed youth raised a hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.
He looked at the shattered bloody image on the ground before them and said with a grim face.
"Leave!"
...
Meanwhile, at the border of the Great Xia Dynasty, Su Bai stood high in the sky, lost in thought.
Just now, after destroying the silver ship, he had enveloped it with his Divine Thoughts and discovered a trace of a mysterious aura.
And through this wisp of aura, Su Bai keenly sensed that someone was secretly spying on this place.
Pushing his Divine Thoughts to their limit, he vaguely managed to trace the aura back to its source.
However, because the distance was too great, he had only detected a general direction.
After a moment of contemplation, he flickered away.
Kicking up rays of rosy light amidst the clouds and mist.
A gentle breeze stirred.
SWOOSH!
...
SWOOSH!
「Within Cangzhou, the Celestial Yang Sect.」
An extremely anxious middle-aged man, his face clouded with worry, sped forward, his robes stirring wisps of cloud-like light.
He flew towards the highest point in the sect, a silver-white pavilion.
After entering the pavilion, the middle-aged man deftly made his way to the pavilion’s 9th Layer.
There, he saw the Sect Master of the Celestial Yang Sect.
"Sect Master!"
Arriving before the Sect Master, the middle-aged man cupped his fists and bowed.
The urgency on his face caused the Sect Master of the Celestial Yang Sect to frown.
He put down the Jade Cup in his hand and said, "Junior Brother! Whatever it is, you may speak freely."
"Elder Yun’s Soul Token has shattered!"
The middle-aged man took a deep breath and stated concisely.
The so-called Soul Token functioned much like a Soul Lamp.
And the specific meaning of his words...
...was none other than...
...the token shatters, the person perishes!
"Yun Tian is dead?"
The Celestial Yang Sect Master’s expression changed instantly.
His eyes flickered.
After exchanging a few more words with the middle-aged man...
...he dismissed him.
After the middle-aged man left, the Sect Master of the Celestial Yang Sect lowered his gaze, contemplating for a moment.
He then muttered softly.
’Yun Tian’s death is not without its uses.’
They had previously made some arrangements with Yun Tian, preparing a backup plan.
The reason the Star Robed Elder had chosen to go to the Great Xia Dynasty was partly due to them fanning the flames from behind the scenes.
Snapping out of his thoughts.
A few figures surfaced in his mind.
He then murmured.
’It seems it’s time to pay a visit to those old friends of mine...’
