Chapter 1680 - Crushing the Opposition
The other Immortal Lords’ eyes widened.
Just one attack, and Shen defeated seven Immortal Lords. His movements were so casual and understated that they almost questioned whether or not this really was the Shen Mu they knew.
But no one was more shocked than Tang Yuyan. Only she knew that Shen Mu was only in the Universe Realm!
He was in the Universe Realm, yet he’d defeated seven Immortal Lords in a single attack!
Tang Yuyan’s mind went completely blank. How could such a heaven-defying figure exist in this world?
Before she could wrap her head around it, a grand battle broke out in the distance. Su Yi was no longer polite.
His sleeves billowed as he stepped through the air, swung his palm, and attacked.
Boom!
Dense sword intent erupted around him, piercing the firmament with unrivaled sharpness. He was like a deity of the sword, proud and contemptuous.
One strike, and the immortal treasures whooshing toward him were sent flying back. Their mournful wails shook the heavens.
As the power of his palm spread, three Immortal Lords were swatted like flies before they could even dodge.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Their flesh split and burst, and their Immortal Lord Laws were almost crushed as they cried out in agony.
A moment later, a spatial fluctuation carried them away, and they disappeared from the battlefield.
There was no doubt about it. When they sensed the threat to their lives, they had no choice but to crush their life-saving talismans and flee.
But this meant they’d been disqualified!
“That guy’s actually so strong?”
“He’s as strong as those unrivaled Immortal Lords!”
“Watch out, everyone!”
A clamor of startled, angry shouts arose throughout the battlefield.
The Immortal Lords charging furiously at Su Yi paused, instantly solemn and on guard.
Even the unrivaled Immortal Lords were startled. They could never have imagined that such a heaven-defying figure was hidden amongst Tang Yuyan’s allies.
No wonder he chose not to flee after acquiring this good fortune. He wasn’t arrogant. He just had reason to be fearless!
“Get him!” shouted a white-haired man as he led a group of Immortal Lords into battle.
Li Xiao, the unrivaled Immortal Lord of the White Bone Demonist Sect.
He practiced the Eight Severings Heavenly Demon Sutra, and he was extraordinarily talented. His cultivation had reached the pinnacle of the Saint Realm, and he wielded a serpentine spear swathed in lightning.
When he attacked, electricity surged throughout the surrounding skies. Light burst forth, and his divine might shook the world.
Meanwhile, his allies cooperated smoothly with him, and with each other. Each drew their treasures and attacked Su Yi from different sides to support Li Xiao.
Su Yi’s eyes flashed with disdain. He suddenly leaped forward, like a sword leaving its scabbard, and attacked explosively.
Boom!
He shook his sleeves and drew his finger through the air. Dazzling, piercing sword qi whooshed past, ripping the skies asunder.
The Immortal Lords’ treasures shattered, offering no more resistance than paper window paneling.
Unstoppable sword qi swept outward, wiping out Li Xiao’s allies.
One was split in two at the waist.
One was sliced to ribbons.
Another was pierced through the chest.
The most terrifying part was that all of them had been on guard. Even so, they perished in the face of that tyrannical power. Not one of them managed to crush their life-saving talismans in time!
The disparity in strength was far too great.
It looked as if Su Yi were outnumbered, but when he unleashed his sword qi, he crushed everyone in his path.
Life and death were determined in an instant!
Even the unrivaled Li Xiao was struck by a rain of sword qi. The impact left him swaying on his feet, his blood and qi churning.
He visibly lost his composure. Where the hell did this monster come from? How could he possibly have such terrifying attainments in the Dao of the Sword?
Boom!
The armored Hua Mingwu attacked, waving his blood-red spear, ripping through the skies, and attacking explosively.
That terrifying, ferocious momentum made countless nearby Immortal Lords hold their breath.
Su Yi stretched out and flicked his fingers.
Clang!!
Hua Mingwu’s spear quivered in his grip, and he staggered several steps backward. His expression shifted dramatically.
Su Yi seized the opportunity to strike, like a wind sweeping away remnants of cloud. It was as if his enemies weren’t even there. Wherever he passed, sword qi burst forth, crushing another group of enemies.
Fresh blood splattered the air, and agonized cries shook the heavens.
Although the Immortal Lords immediately crushed their talismans and fled, their outcome was still grisly. Their flesh was left in tatters, and even their souls were badly damaged.
There was no need to even question it. If they hadn’t activated their life-saving talismans just in time, they’d all have been killed on the spot!
This bloody scene shook the other camps’ courage. All of them were shocked.
Just who is this Shen Mu person? Why is he so heaven-defying?
Every last one of these camps had an unrivaled Immortal Lord to oversee things! Alas, even they were helpless to stop Su Yi from forcing one Immortal Lord after another to drop out.
Barely any time had passed since the start of the battle, but nineteen Immortal Lords had washed out already.
And three had died!
Who wouldn’t be shocked after such massive losses? And who wouldn’t have been furious?
Many of the Immortal Lords were so terrified that their will to fight wavered!
He didn’t attack all this time, but it wasn’t because he was too weak. No, he was just hiding his abilities... Tang Yuyan’s heart shook. Endless waves of emotion coursed through it.
By now, how could she not understand that the Universe Realm Shen Mu was actually strong enough to threaten even unrivaled Immortal Lords?
The most ridiculous thing was that when they first met, she treated Su Yi with great prejudice, suspicion, and rudeness. Even after Tang Bao’er argued on his behalf, and even after Tang Lingqi himself repeatedly urged her to take Su Yi seriously, she never once took their opinions to heart.
Even more absurd was that after entering the Divine Hunt Demon Mountains, she and her companions took Su Yi for a well-connected silkpants too cowardly to fight but eager to reap unearned rewards.
Looking back on it now, Tang Yuyan was overcome with unbearable shame and awkwardness.
Tang Hanfeng and the others were completely dumbstruck. The looks on their faces were a sight to behold; they were like dazed chickens. Their minds were completely blank.
They’d been the most critical of Su Yi this entire time. Seeing him fight like this was like an invisible slap to the face, and it left their cheeks hot and stinging.
They finally understood the meaning of the phrase “I had eyes, but I did not see.”
Suddenly, Hua Mingwu roared, “Everyone, let’s fight together and take him down! If we don’t, he’ll just pick us off one after another!”
“Alright!”
“But of course!”
The other five unrivaled Immortal Lords—Li Xiao, Fu Yunzi, Huang Beiye, Tao Rushuang, and Gu Dongliu—straightforwardly agreed.
When the other Immortal Lords saw this, they inwardly sighed in relief and stepped back to watch the battle. They had no intention of participating any further.
In stark contrast, Tang Yuyan and company tensed.
Six unrivaled Immortal Lords had joined forces! A lineup like that could sweep the Divine Hunt without fear of competition!
Furthermore, “unrivaled” Immortal Lords were called that because they had heaven-defying foundations and combat strength within the Saint Realm. They could crush all others of the same level!
People like them typically mastered supreme secret arts and wielded top-notch secret treasures.
People like Gong Nanfeng and Wen Changfeng could even cross realms to fight early-stage Miracle Realm Immortal Kings!
This was what made unrivaled Immortal Lords so terrifying.
Now, six such terrifying experts were targeting Su Yi at once. Tang Yuyan couldn’t help but be more nervous than ever before.
Boom!
Without the slightest hesitation, the unrivaled Immortal Lords gathered, drew their strongest treasures, readied their killer attacks, and charged at Su Yi as one.
“This is finally getting a little bit interesting,” sighed Su Yi. Crushing even in his path was satisfying, but it was missing a certain intoxicating something.
Now that six unrivaled Immortal Lords had joined forces against him, Su Yi finally felt somewhat eager to do battle.
“Hah!” Li Xiao poured his power into his serpentine lightning spear and attacked explosively.
Meanwhile, the other unrivaled Immortal Lords’ killer moves whooshed through the air, blanketing heaven and earth. Their terrifying power shook everything around them, down to the mountains and rivers.
Su Yi didn’t retreat. He swung his fist and clashed with them head-on.
He seemed leisurely, like a master going through the movements of a martial arts form. When he punched, the sky shattered and collapsed, and Li Xiao’s serpentine spear flew from his grip.
Practically simultaneously, Su Yi’s tall, upright figure lit up. He struck five times in an instant, using his fingers as a sword to deliver a furious slash, pressing his hands into a seal, pressing down on the air, and sweeping his palm through the sky...
Every strike crushed an unrivaled Immortal Lord’s killer move, leaving them swaying on their feet. They had no choice but to retreat.
In the blink of an eye, Su Yi crushed their encirclement!
At that moment, Su Yi seemed far too dazzling. He fought barehanded, but he seemed invincible. As he shot across the battlefield, he smoothly outshone all six unrivaled Immortal Lords!
The distant onlookers were flabbergasted, no exceptions.
Six unrivaled Immortal Lords joined forces, but they still can’t defeat Shen Mu?
After this setback, the six unrivaled Immortal Lords’ expressions were incomparably solemn. Every last one of them drew on everything they had left in reserve.
It would have been obvious to anything that they were no longer holding back. They were red-eyed with fury!
“Suppress!” Hua Mingwu bellowed and sent a white bone treasure tower crashing down. When it took to the air, it surged with countless strange and contorted talisman markings. The markings wove together, forming a restrictive power that bore down on Su Yi.
The surrounding area seemed restricted. Everything sank into an unnatural stillness.
“The Five Elements Void-Suppressing Tower!” Tang Yuyan’s beautiful face shifted dramatically. She recognized the tower as a mighty killer weapon. This was Hua Mingwu’s trump card!
In the Divine Hunt Demon Mountains, the restriction of the Laws meant that the appearance of anyone beyond the Immortal Lord level would provoke an inevitable backlash.
That went for treasures too.
This was why Immortal Kings couldn’t enter these mountains. Similarly, this was why none of the participants brought forbidden treasures beyond the bounds of their cultivation base.
Even so, Hua Mingwu’s Five Elements Void-Suppressing Tower was extraordinary, a wondrous and unfathomable ancient treasure. It was a top-class treasure of the Immortal Lord level!
Hua Mingwu was pouring everything he had into it, letting it unleash power terrifying beyond imagination!
But that wasn’t the end of it.
