Chapter 1714: Chapter 1715: Western Region Genius? Nothing Special! (First Update)

Clang!

A sword resounded, suddenly erupting, Ten Directions Annihilation abruptly appeared in Ling Feng’s palm.

"Eight Swords United!"

In an instant, eight different colored lights burst forth, and that green-robed swordsman, before he could even react, was directly exploded into a mist of blood by the terrifying sword Qi!

"Genius of the West Sword Domain?"

Ling Feng flicked the sword edge in his hand, coldly uttering, "That’s all!"

Sima Xu and another companion, eyes widened instantly, faces filled with disbelief, the scene before them exceeding their imagination.

When did people from the Eastern Spirit Domain become this strong?

In fact, although Sima Xu and his group’s strength were decent, they were only average to upper-middle level in the West Sword Domain, far from being top geniuses, let alone supreme ones.

Moreover, they underestimated Ling Feng from the start, and caught off guard by Ling Feng’s sudden assault, struck by the killing move from the Heavenly Punishment Sword Technique, it was naturally a one-way path to death.

After all, the geniuses from the West Sword Domain, despite their high sword Dao accomplishment, had a significant weakness in physical strength.

"You... how could it be?"

Sima Xu felt his mind unable to turn around, weren’t the martial artists from the Eastern Spirit Domain supposed to be weak?

Little did they know, their bad luck led them to encounter the strongest among the geniuses of the Eastern Spirit Domain.

Moreover, one that was epochally powerful!

"Now, I’ll send you down to accompany him." Ling Feng pursed his lips, having already formed a vendetta, naturally needed to eliminate the root.

Clang!

Ten Directions Annihilation, a glimmer of eerie light, infinite slaughter aura erupted, shaking even the void.

In this Xuanjian Underground Palace, Ling Feng could feel his Sea of Consciousness with the Slaughter Sword Intent and Reincarnation Sword Intent, enhancing every single moment.

Faintly, there was already a trend from Great Accomplishment Sword Intent ascending to Small Perfection level.

"Wait... wait..."

Sima Xu, almost scared out of his wits, hurriedly retreated, while the last swordsman quickly drew his sword, shouting loudly, his figure flashing before Sima Xu, all power poured into this sword, dazzling beyond measure, this was his strongest sword of a lifetime.

But unfortunately, he met Ling Feng!

Sword Soul Junior, merged into Ten Directions Annihilation, one move, Leaving Fire Burning Sky, fiercely slashed out!

Rolling fiery flames transformed into a red arc from the heavens, instantly cleaving that swordsman into two, under the engulfing Chee Yan, turned into ashes.

Not only this, the sword light pierced through, directly slashing at Sima Xu!

At the moment of life and death, a golden barrier lit up around Sima Xu, forcibly isolating Ling Feng’s sword Qi from the outside.

But, it only lasted for a moment!

After a moment, a cracking sound echoed, the light around Sima Xu shattered like an eggshell, but the sword Qi of Leaving Fire Burning Sky was almost neutralized, Sima Xu cleaved with his sword horizontally, saving his life by chance.

"Damn it!"

Sima Xu instantly snapped back, elemental power surged, a layer of blood light erupted from within, transforming into blood-red flames, burning fiercely, emitting an incomparably terrifying aura, followed by a "boom", Sima Xu soared into the sky, ready to escape.

This person, feigning attack, had already plotted an escape route.

"Trying to run? Eight-directions Break Profound!"

Ling Feng uttered a low drink, Ten Directions Annihilation slashed downward, sky-splitting sword Qi erupted, transformed into dazzling arcs, chasing Sima Xu at greater speed.

Boom!—

Sima Xu spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, yet he leveraged the force of recoil, speed suddenly surged, vanishing in a blink from Ling Feng’s sight.

A flash of black light, Despicable Donkey emerged from the Five Elements Heavenly Palace, cursing: "That guy runs faster than a rabbit!"

Ling Feng’s expression darkened, utterly unexpected, that Sima Xu had a protective Dharma treasure, capable of resisting a fused Sword Soul power move "Leaving Fire Burning Sky".

However, although Sima Xu used the Blood Escape Technique to flee, he was struck by Ling Feng’s sword, severely wounded, coupled with the side effects of the secret technique, if not dead, might lose half his life, with constant peril beneath this Xuanjian Underground Palace, his survival chances weren’t high.

Unfortunately, his Divine Sense was greatly suppressed, Unlimited Vision couldn’t cover a vast range, otherwise, he would surely kill to eliminate future threats.

...

On the other side, as Ling Feng predicted, Sima Xu who fled using the Blood Escape secret technique, encountered a massive crisis.

"Pfft!"

Sima Xu spat out a mouthful of blood, fleeing in panic, heavily slammed into a rock wall ahead, his body bent from the back, clearly indicating a completely broken spine, blood dripping heavily on the ground.

Ling Feng’s last sword penetrated his body entirely, the destructive power of the Slaughter Sword Intent manifested at this moment.

No matter how he stimulated elemental power to repair the wound, it continued to bleed, impossible to eliminate the remaining Slaughter Sword Intent.

If this continued, Sima Xu faced a one-way path to death.

"Damn it! Damn it!"

Sima Xu gritted his teeth in hatred, also a little regretful, why did he provoke Ling Feng, that evil god.

However, who would have thought, the perpetually weak Eastern Spirit Domain would produce such a monster!

For instance, being told since childhood that ants are weak creatures, yet suddenly having a moment where one is stepped on by an ant, a feeling indescribably complex.

"Ling Feng, once I return, even if you’re far away in the Eastern Spirit Domain, I’ll capture you, grind you into ashes, only then can I eliminate the hatred in my heart!"

Boom!

Muttering curses, Sima Xu punched heavily on a stele ahead.

Bang!

Giant stone shattered, immediately, eerie gray light appeared on the stele, gray aura surged from the shattered stele, flowing into Sima Xu’s body.

"What... what’s going on?"

Sima Xu’s eyelids twitched madly, the gray mist instantly sucking out his blood, he could even see his body decaying and withering visibly.

"No! No!"

Desperate screams echoed, soon, Sima Xu’s head completely turned into a dried-up zombie, his eyeballs falling from empty sockets.

Before long, replaced by two green ghost fires!

Crack——

Crack——

Then, eerie sounds emanated from Sima Xu’s body, Sima Xu suddenly stood upright!

Gray mist engulfed Sima Xu, the withered body slowly restored to original form.

However, gray auras flowed across his face, hideous and horrifying.

Simultaneously, his body erupted with "crack", "crack" echoes, convulsing, gradually growing taller, then shorter, finally reverting to original form. Yet, those eye sockets remained filled with dark ghost fires, eerily haunting.

"How many years... I’ve finally come back alive! The fourth layer, this time, I’ll enter the fourth layer no matter what!"

Sima Xu’s mouth slightly opened, obscure voice echoed, figure flashed, transformed into flowing light, swiftly departing, shockingly fast.

Except, this Sima Xu, was not the Sima Xu before.
