Chapter 99

Second Update!

——

Swish! Swish! Swish!

In the twilight, figures rushed toward the Li family mansion.

At this moment, almost everyone in Songyan City knew that Chen Xi had returned and had single-handedly charged into the Li family mansion. People who originally thought Chen Xi was doomed to die discovered that the Li family mansion was continuously filled with piercing screams and thunderous explosions... The battle seemed to never stop.

What did this prove?

It proved that Chen Xi was still alive and had been fighting alone against the entire Li family!

This fact was bizarre and unbelievable. As everyone knew, Chen Xi was just a small apprentice who only knew how to make talismans a year ago, and his cultivation was only at the innate realm. The Li family could easily send a skilled expert to kill him.

But now, this person had single-handedly charged into the Li family, not only did he not die, but he had been fighting all along. How could this not astonish people?

Could it be that this person had obtained a great opportunity in the Southern Barbarian Netherworld, causing his strength to skyrocket in just a year?

To verify their thoughts, almost all the Purple Mansion cultivators in Songyan City were mobilized, including the General's Mansion, Songyan Academy, Tianxing Academy, Hongye Academy...

They were not there to help Chen Xi; they were purely driven by curiosity. After all, Chen Xi's enemy was the Li family, and no one would be foolish enough to oppose the Li family, the top power in Songyan City.

Before long, within a hundred miles of the Li family, the area was occupied by Purple Mansion cultivators from various forces. To avoid causing misunderstandings with the Li family, they hid in the shadows, indicating that they would not interfere.

However, when they saw the bodies, blood, and entrails scattered everywhere in the Li family mansion, and when they saw Li Ming being shredded into a bloody rain by thousands of sword beams, everyone's faces changed.

Those with keen eyes could even roughly estimate Chen Xi's strength from his attacks, leaving them shocked and speechless.

Purple Mansion realm!

Sword Intent!

Speed as swift as the wind!

Yellow-grade supreme flying sword!

To possess such terrifying strength and magical treasures in just a year, how was this possible? How did he achieve it? Could he have been hiding his true strength all along?

When they heard the Li family patriarch Li Yizhen's anguished cry and Chen Xi's admission of killing Li Huai, all the onlookers felt a sharp jolt in their hearts.

Li Huai, the eldest son of the Li family, was a standout among the young generation in Songyan City, with a resounding reputation and hailed as the Li family's most outstanding genius in a thousand years.

Such a prodigy had actually died at the hands of Chen Xi...

Sweeping Star?

Is this still a Sweeping Star?

Is there a Sweeping Star who can boost their strength in a year, comprehend Sword Intent, and possess a Yellow-grade supreme magical treasure?

At this moment, no one dared to underestimate Chen Xi anymore. They no longer viewed him as the talisman-making apprentice from a year ago. As for the title of Sweeping Star, it was forgotten by everyone.

In the cultivation world, strength is always the standard for everything. Identity, status, and honor are all closely related to one's strength. Even within sects, families, and academies, to obtain more resources, one must have matching strength. The reactions of the onlookers perfectly illustrated this point.

At this moment, six figures crushed through rolling waves of energy and appeared beside Li Yizhen, who was immersed in the pain of losing his son.

As soon as the six figures appeared, a terrifying aura like a mountain spread out. Even from a great distance, the onlookers felt a heavy pressure.

The six elders of the Li family, who had been in seclusion!

Good grief, the six old monsters of the Li family had actually all come out!

The onlookers dared not indulge in wild thoughts and focused their eyes on the battle, not blinking.

The Li family could become the top family in Songyan City because of these six Purple Mansion realm elders. Now that they had all come out, it was a once-in-a-century event. Who wouldn't want to see the strength of these six?

How many moves could Chen Xi withstand under the combined efforts of the six Li family elders?

This thought inexplicably appeared in the minds of all the onlookers.

The ground was awash with blood, severed limbs, and entrails floating in it, the pungent smell of blood so thick that even the wind couldn't disperse it.

These were the bodies of the Li family's young disciples.

They were the hope of the next generation of the Li family.

Now, they lay in the blood, their appearance tragic. This scene, when seen by the six elders like Li Fengtu, made them look at Chen Xi with a desire to tear him apart.

"Are you the wicked son of the Chen family?" Li Fengtu's voice was filled with boundless coldness, his eyes fixed on Chen Xi, revealing a killing intent.

Chen Xi did not answer him. Instead, eight Xuanming flying swords suddenly appeared around him, like a school of fish, their sword beams flickering, emitting a sharp and cold aura.

Eight Yellow-grade supreme flying swords!

The pupils of Li Fengtu and the other five elders all contracted, their expressions filled with shock and doubt. They could also control eight flying swords, but if all eight were Yellow-grade supreme, that was uncertain.

"No wonder you are so confident, it turns out you possess eight Yellow-grade supreme magical treasures." Li Fengtu's eyes flashed with cold light, speaking coldly.

"Brother, kill him, seize these eight swords, and avenge our Li family clansmen!"

"Kill him? That would be too easy. We should flay him alive, extract his soul, and ensure he never reincarnates!"

The other elders spoke coldly, their words filled with intense killing intent.

"If you want to kill me, I will also destroy your Li family." Chen Xi said indifferently, "Since it's like this, today, we will fight to the death!"

Destroy our Li family?

Seemingly not expecting Chen Xi to be so bold, Li Fengtu and the others were stunned.

In that moment of shock, the eight Xuanming flying swords around Chen Xi burst into light, slicing through the air. The sword beams of ice condensed into lines, and the eight swords formed eight lines, interlocking and crisscrossing, their fierce and deadly aura heading straight for Li Fengtu's head.

The sword momentum was fierce!

As swift as lightning!

The first level of the Annihilation Wind Flowing Light Sword Formation—Annihilation Wind Instant Kill!

At this moment, facing the combined efforts of the six Purple Mansion elders, Chen Xi used the Annihilation Wind Flowing Light Sword Formation for the first time!

Even the incomplete version of this Xuan-grade sword formation was worth 800,000 pounds of spirit liquid in the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, and only Yellow Court realm cultivators could control it. It was indeed swift as the wind and light, with unmatched sharpness and lethality.

When Chen Xi used it, it contained a trace of the Dao of Wind, its speed so fast that it could not be described as merely astonishing.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

A sword beam flashed, leaving a trail of blood. The eight Xuanming flying swords left eight shocking wounds on Li Fengtu's body, blood spurting out. If he hadn't sensed the danger and dodged desperately, this single attack would have taken his life.

"Such audacity to ambush! Attack!" Li Fengtu, his clothes stained with blood, was thoroughly enraged. A flying sword appeared in his hand, spinning and cutting, shooting out.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The other five elders also waved their sleeves, and five luminous flying swords shot out almost simultaneously.

These six elders of the Li family, all at least at the Seventh Star Purple Mansion realm, now acted together. The six flying swords intertwined, their trajectories different, instantly locking down Chen Xi's escape routes, clearly having practiced a formation combat technique.

Chen Xi felt a strong sense of danger. He suddenly activated the eight Xuanming flying swords, two guarding in front of him, the other six transforming into six streaks of light, clashing with the six flying swords. A series of metallic explosions echoed, ripples spreading out, and sparks flying as the flying swords collided, like a meteor shower.

Six loud booms!

All twelve flying swords were shaken apart.

The six elders of the Li family's attack ended in a stalemate with Chen Xi!

Seeing this, the countless eyes of the onlookers all contracted, a shock flashing across them.

Unlike the onlookers, the six elders of the Li family, as the parties involved, felt the impact more directly. Seeing Chen Xi hold his own against six of them, their expressions changed.

Swish!

Blocking the six flying swords, Chen Xi was shaken, feeling chest tightness and blood surging. He dared not engage in a hard fight and used the Divine Wind Feather Escape technique, his figure becoming ethereal, like a breeze blending into the void, unpredictable.

In a direct confrontation, with his Fifth Star Purple Mansion realm cultivation, he could not withstand the combined efforts of these six old men. However, if it were a one-on-one fight, Chen Xi was confident he could crush and kill any one of the six.

After all, the first level of the Annihilation Wind Flowing Light Sword Formation had the power to kill ordinary Yellow Court realm cultivators!

At this moment, Chen Xi was seeking an opportunity to defeat each of the six individually.

"His movement is too fast; we must use the Small Six Directions Formation to kill him!" Li Fengtu roared, changing his position to form a seamless defensive formation with the other five elders.

They stood back to back, facing all directions. From a distance, they looked like a giant with six heads and twelve arms, moving like the wind, agile and flexible, acting as one.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

With roars, the six elders of the Li family controlled their six flying swords, slashing at Chen Xi, who moved like the wind in the void.

For a moment, the sky was filled with streaks of sword light, spinning and cutting, flashing and tearing, as if trying to rip the void into cracks.

Chen Xi's Divine Wind Feather Escape technique was incredibly wondrous. As long as he wanted to dodge, even if there were twice as many flying swords, he could still evade them with ease.

However, it became extremely difficult for Chen Xi to get close to Li Fengtu and the others. The six of them formed the Small Six Directions Formation, like a person with six pairs of eyes, defending without any blind spots. Any ambush would be seen by them.

"Chen Xi can force these six old men to use the Small Six Directions Formation; he is indeed too powerful."

"Indeed, if it were a one-on-one fight, no one would be Chen Xi's match... It's hard to imagine how he could have cultivated to this level in just a year. The term 'rapid progress' doesn't even begin to describe it."

In the crowd of onlookers, seeing the battle reach a stalemate, they all whispered, their voices filled with admiration for Chen Xi's strength.

In the air, Chen Xi kept moving, ethereal like smoke, swift as the wind and lightning.

The six elders of the Li family knew Chen Xi was looking for their weaknesses to defeat them one by one, but they were helpless. Chen Xi's movement was too strange, faster even than their flying swords. No matter how they attacked, he always managed to dodge skillfully, like a wind that changed endlessly.

If this continued, it would not be a good strategy.

"Yizhen! Quickly activate the clan protection formation!" Li Fengtu turned his head and saw Li Yizhen regaining consciousness on the ground. He immediately shouted.
