Chapter 724: Meeting No Resistance

Ye Fenghe’s aura suddenly changed.

The waters of Goldenscale Lake suddenly shook beneath his feet, stirring up mists. The originally clear skies were suddenly overcast and oppressive.

A terrifying pressure spread out around him, startling heaven and earth.

In an instant, all discussion came to an abrupt halt. The atmosphere was silent and austere.

“Who is that guy? His aura is terrifying!” Many of the onlookers’ expressions shifted.

“He’s obviously in the Spiritual Incarnation Realm, but his aura is a whole level above Spiritual Revolution cultivators like Huan Tianxu and Nie Wanzhi. Who is that?” The Xia Emperor was inwardly solemn, and a grave look appeared on his brow.

The vast majority of the cultivators present had absolutely no idea who Ye Fenghe was, and earlier, they weren’t overly concerned about him.

But now that he’d revealed his imposing presence, they suddenly realized that the unknown man Su Yi was about to fight was an extremely terrifying existence!

And this put Shen Suiyun on guard.

His bellyful of anger dissipated, and he calmed down.

As a fellow Spiritual Incarnation cultivator, Shen Suiyun could tell how terrifying Ye Fenghe was; he was far beyond most of the modern Azure Continent’s Spiritual Incarnation cultivators!

I’ll just let them fight amongst themselves. If Su Yi gets killed, it’s less trouble for me. If this person gets killed, well, Su Yi will surely pay a price for his victory.”

Besides, I can seize this opportunity to get a sense for Su Yi’s strength.

As he pondered, Shen Suiyun forcefully suppressed his humiliation and silently left the area.

Fortunately, even though all eyes were upon him and Su Yi, no one criticized his decision.

This made him sigh in relief.

“So, you want to die one at a time?” When he saw that only Ye Fenghe had stepped forth, Su Yi couldn’t help but frown. He seemed a bit displeased.

“I alone am more than enough to kill you,” Ye Fenghe said coldly.

Before his voice had finished reverberating through the air, he unsheathed his sword.

Clang!

The sword’s hums spread out like waters at high tide, and sword qi rose into the clouds.

Ye Fenghe’s sword was dark as ink, and it surged with blazing light, like tiny, fiery stars. Its searing, tyrannical aura ran rampant with shocking destructive power.

The Celestial Fire Dao Sword!

With his weapon in hand, Ye Fenghe’s presence changed, becoming even more terrifying.

Despite himself, even Shen Suiyun was stunned. He couldn’t even imagine where someone like this had come from.

However, this wasn’t enough to scare him. He was confident that, were he to fight in Su Yi’s stead, he’d come out on top!

The power of the Nine Tripod Suppression Barrier Formation enveloping the city silently started to circulate, surrounding the area around Goldenscale Lake.

Without a formation to seal it, even just the aftershock of such a grand battle was enough to ruin the entire district!

“Seems to me that you’d best attack me all at once,” sighed Su Yi.

This declaration left Ye Yunlan stunned.?He might be young, but his courage is truly shocking.

The Kunwu Mountain Ye Family was the hegemon of the Mysterious Blue Realm, and their foundations were deep and ancient.

As a member of the Ye Family, Ye Fenghe’s Spiritual Incarnation Realm foundations were the best of the best within the Mysterious Blue Realm; he could gaze upon the vast majority of his contemporaries with pride!

Amongst the Azure Continent’s Spiritual Incarnation experts, few were even worthy of fighting him.

Yet now, Su Yi was completely disregarding him!

Of course Ye Yunlan was surprised!

“You’re barking like a mad dog. You don’t know the meaning of the word death!” Ye Fenghe snorted coldly and swung his sword without hesitation.

Kch! Kch! Kch!

His slash triggered a rapid-fire series of explosions.

A streak of sword qi flew through the air, surrounded by a dazzling, searing rain of light that spread like wildfire.

The enormous Goldenscale Lake suddenly boiled over, filling the surrounding area with steam.

The crowd was astonished, and they felt goosebumps rise on their skin.?What a terrifying slash!

“Fine, then. I’ll send you on your way first.” Su Yi rose to his full height, and his aura expanded, like a wave suddenly rising from long dormant seas.

He leaped forward, and when the sword qi neared him, he suddenly?thwapped?it with his right hand.

Boom!

It was like the wind sweeping away remnant clouds. The slash filling the sky with divine fire exploded into pieces and receded like waters at low tide.

In one casual, understated gesture, he’d destroyed Ye Fenghe’s slash!

Everyone present was dumbstruck.

Shen Suiyun’s expression shifted.

He’d only just been thinking that he would have had to use his full power to neutralize that strike, but Su Yi… did it with apparent ease!

“Excellent!” Ye Yunlan shouted his approval.

“Fenghe, don’t get complacent, and don’t hold back any longer!” Ye Changchun furrowed his brow, and he sounded a bit displeased.

“Got it!” Ye Fenghe’s eyes flashed with cold light, and he circulated the full extent of his cultivation base.

His thin frame burst with the surging radiance of the Grand Dao, and his aura expanded continuously. Even the surrounding skies collapsed with a wail.

“Cut!” With a deafening shout, Ye Fenghe swung his sword.

Streaks of sword qi swept through the air like a divine firestorm. A vast swath of celestial flame blanketed heaven and earth.

From a distance, it was as if the skies had become a blazing sea. Tens of thousands of streaks of sword qi surged within the flames.

A Dao of the Sword like this was shocking indeed; even ghosts and gods would flee from it!

Su Yi didn’t even look at it. He just stepped into the sky.

His blue robes and long hair fluttered around him. The profound and inscrutable Dao Intent of Genesis circulated around him, and when the sword qi like a sea of fire descended upon him, it dispersed with a bang as it drew near.

As if nothing could break through his defense!

When he stepped forward, he was like an awl boring through everything in his path. He ripped through the sea of flame, scattering misty light.

He walked right in, as if nothing stood in his way!

His gait seemed unhurried, but in the blink of an eye, he neared Ye Fenghe with unstoppable momentum.

Then, he swung his fist.

It was just a simple punch, without the slightest flourish.

But when it landed….

Boom!

Heaven and earth suddenly shook, and as big as it was, all of Goldenscale Lake caved in. Its waters swept toward the shore in massive, hundred-foot waves.

The cultivators on shore all stepped back in alarm.

The power of the Nine Tripod Suppression Barrier enveloping the shoreline suddenly fluctuated violently.

It seemed that when this?fist?landed, it would overturn heaven and earth!

That terrifying, tyrannical momentum left Ye Fenghe visibly startled, and his hair stood on end. It intimidated his mind and soul, leaving them trembling in fright.

Dammit! Isn’t this punk a bit too strong?

Earlier, Ye Fenghe had been incomparably confident in himself, but now, he was completely frantic.

Because this punch gave him a whiff of a potentially lethal threat!

“Absolute Incineration!” This stimulated Ye Fenghe, who went all out. He circulated his entire cultivation base as if he’d gone insane, then thrust with his sword.

Boom!

The black blade blazed as if it were on fire, exploding with one hundred thousand feet of divine radiance.

It gave onlookers the impression of a blazing sun rising out of the sword. It stung their eyes so badly that they almost couldn’t bear to look at it.

Despite himself, Shen Suiyun was impressed; were he to face this all-out attack, he feared he’d have to use his full power to block it.

Ye Yunlan’s eyes narrowed, and he silently circulated his qi.

Ye Changchun and Ye Xueting similarly readied themselves for battle.

None of them had anticipated that Su Yi would reveal such unstoppable momentum right off the bat. He’d already forced Ye Fenghe to use his trump card!

But it was at that moment that Su Yi’s fist slammed into Ye Fenghe’s sword qi.

Boom!!!

It was as if a comet had slammed into the earth, collapsing the ground with an explosive impact.

Beneath the onlookers’ astonished gazes, that blazing sun of sword qi smashed into pieces beneath Su Yi’s fist.

An explosive rain of light scattered, but the fist force continued ahead, its power undiminished as it slammed into Ye Fenghe.

This Kunwu Mountain Ye Family Spiritual Incarnation expert’s defensive treasures shattered like glass, one after another, and his defensive aura suddenly caved in. In the end, it couldn’t take the pressure, and it dissipated with a bang.

Immediately afterward, fist force cleaved into his chest, which offered little more resistance than rotten wood.

Bang—!

Ye Fenghe was sent flying back.

He was still in midair when his flesh started cracking. Blood gushed from his wounds, like a cluster of geysers, and the sound of shattering bones emanated from within his body.

𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

In the end, he fell into the lake a thousand feet away with an audible splash.

When the crowd looked over, they saw that his hair was disheveled and his body was covered in blood. He was injured to the brink of death!

And his sword was wailing. It had landed beside him, its blend trembling as it cried out like a despairing beast.

How could one punch be so strong?

The entire area fell deathly silent. Everyone was wide-eyed and tongue-tied.

Ye Fenghe’s strength was blindingly obvious. Who could imagine that he wouldn’t be able to block even a single one of Su Yi’s punches?

Su Yi was as forceful as an axe through bamboo, and he fought as if there were no one else around. This left a deep impression on everyone present.

He’s already gotten this strong…??Shen Suiyun’s heart was in turmoil, and his body silently tensed. Even he was stunned by the tyrannical power of Su Yi’s punch.

“How is this possible!?” Ye Xueting couldn’t help but cry out, and?Ye Changchun’s expression darkened.

“Excellent!” Ye Yunlan’s spirits soared, and his expression filled with utter surprise and delight.

He would never have guessed that Su Yi, whose cultivation was still just in the late-stage Spiritual Incarnation Realm, would be strong enough to suppress the Spiritual Incarnation Realm Ye Fenghe!

“Fellow Daoist Su killed Huan Tianxu and the others on the tenth day of the third lunar month, but…. His strength had obviously undergone an earth-shaking transformation since then,” muttered the Xia Emperor.

He’d watched how Su Yi slew Huan Tianxu and five other Spiritual Revolution cultivators. He was naturally aware that Su Yi’s strength was no longer comparable to what it had been back then!

Of everyone present, Wen Xinzhao, Qing Ya, and Daoist Master Coldsmoke were the calmest.

“I told you to attack together, but you stubbornly insisted on overestimating yourself. How are you any different from a mantis trying to block a chariot?” As his calm voice rang out, Su Yi walked toward Ye Fenghe.

“Stop!” Ye Xueting attacked without hesitation. She shot forward like a beam of slowing light and charged at Su Yi.

Whoosh!

While she was still in midair, she slashed at Su Yi without hesitation. Dazzling, snow-white sword qi swept forth like a bolt of cloth.

“You? You can’t save him.” Su Yi shook his head, then flicked his fingers.

Bang!

Ye Xueting’s incoming sword qi shattered, inch by inch.

At the same time, Su Yi stepped forward.

Whoosh~~

Several hundred feet away, the currents surged around Ye Fenghe, enveloping him in a hundred-foot sword qi vortex.

“No——!” Ye Fenghe shrieked in terror and alarm.

However, his shouts soon came to an abrupt halt.

He was a peak Spiritual Incarnation expert of the Kunwu Mountain Ye Family, yet now, beneath countless astonished gazes, a vortex of sword qi reduced his body to a meaty pulp.

Even his soul dissipated!
