After Shen Lang killed one person, he did not stop at all. With both hands, he grabbed a chain and pulled hard. Before the few people's bodies had returned to normal, he pulled the two black-clothed men on the other end of the chains closer.
"Rattling!"
The two chains made a loud noise. With Shen Lang's hands shaking continuously, they instantly bound the two people.
While Shen Lang was doing these actions, the leader holding the purple-gold staff did not stop his attacks. He continuously attacked with fierce wind, his attacks becoming more and more intense.
Under the powerful energy bombardment, sand and stones flew around, the scene was terrifying.
"Get out of the way!"
Shen Lang lightly shouted, his right hand pulling the chain and swinging it. The thick chain, like a dragon's tail, struck the person who was trying to sneak up on him at an incredible speed.
"Spit!"
That person grunted and flew backward, it was the one who had previously cast the Earth Bind Spell.
Shen Lang's left hand was also not idle. With just a swing, the chain bound a black-clothed man in front of him, using him as a meat shield.
"Rip!"
This unfortunate meat shield was instantly struck on the chest by the person holding the purple-gold staff, blood spraying onto the ground.
"Damn!"
One of his subordinates died at his own hands, but Shen Lang was unscathed, which infuriated the leader to the point of madness.
...
With these two moves, Shen Lang knocked down three people. He broke the balance among the chain-wielding group, grabbed the chains, and rapidly retreated. His hands continuously moved, using the chains as weapons.
At this moment, two chains were still wrapped around his body, but the two people could not hold him back!
Shen Lang's left-hand chain formed a spiral, creating a fierce wind to defend against the purple-gold staff.
The chain in his right hand turned into a whip, striking the other black-clothed men, causing them to scream and fly away.
The chains that were supposed to bind him had instead become his weapons, and they moved incredibly fast, carrying a fierce thunder force!
The leader's frenzied attacks did not even touch the hem of Shen Lang's clothes, which enraged him to the point of losing control!
"The information was wrong; this time it's going to be troublesome. When did Tianfeng City produce such a powerful character..."
"No, even if he has some brute strength and strange movements, he's just a sixteen-year-old kid! In terms of strength, he can't possibly match me... Since this kind of attack is ineffective, I'll use a brutal and forceful approach! Crush him directly!"
A fierce look flashed in the leader's eyes. He stepped on one of the chains, and his figure shot up into the sky.
The purple-gold staff instantly grew several times larger in the air, surrounded by sharp light, sweeping toward Shen Lang.
"Elephant Mountain Opening Staff, kid, die!"
As the saying goes, "a staff sweeps a wide area"!
This staff sweep created countless staff shadows in the air, forming a massive, terrifying giant, charging toward Shen Lang with astonishing power.
The leader's staff attack even included himself!
This was a desperate move to kill Shen Lang, even if it meant mutual destruction.
He locked Shen Lang with his divine sense, leaving him no choice but to confront him head-on!
"Finally showing your trump card! Once you use your ultimate move, your identity is revealed. If you can't kill me, in a few days, I'll make you wish you were dead!"
Shen Lang shouted coldly, his eyes narrowing. Then, his entire body was enveloped in lightning, and a powerful thunder force erupted from him, instantly breaking the chains that bound him into many pieces.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
The thick black iron chains scattered, striking the chests of the surrounding people who had just recovered and were about to charge.
Several Fifth Heaven Qi Martial Realm warriors, who were already considered experts in Tianfeng City, immediately screamed in pain and were thrown backward by the chains.
The black iron chains, infused with the Thunder Control Divine Technique, had an extraordinary attack power!
This attack not only shocked the leader but also the people from the Holy Light Sect.
These were black iron chains, and even an Eighth Heaven Qi Martial Realm expert would find it difficult to break them into so many pieces. Was this kid's strength really that powerful?
Even with the help of the thunder force, it shouldn't be this strong, right?
...
As everyone was stunned, Shen Lang's arms shook, and a cold aura transmitted from his palms to the ends of the chains. The two chains he held suddenly straightened, becoming like two iron rods.
"Ghost Moon Cross Sword!"
In the air, a bright "X" flashed, deeply splitting the terrifying staff light that had formed the giant!
The giant, about three to four zhang tall, had a huge cross from head to tail.
In a flash, Shen Lang passed through the cross gap, behind the giant, and then the chain whipped like a javelin, instantly piercing the leader's chest!
All of this happened in an instant, at an incredibly fast speed!
"Spit... Martial Way Rule? This is impossible!"
The leader was immediately severely injured. He seemed to see something unbelievable. Before he landed, he rotated the purple-gold staff in the air, like an arrow, shooting toward Shen Lang. At the same time, he rapidly retreated, starting to flee in the opposite direction!
The purple-gold staff emitted a terrifying aura, and the unstable energy was rapidly increasing, causing the two people from the Xuan Dao Sect to change color.
"Be careful, he's making the spirit weapon explode!" the senior sister Zilan from the Xuan Dao Sect shouted.
Shen Lang's eyes narrowed. The chain in his right hand rattled, breaking free and forming a spiral to bind the rapidly approaching purple-gold staff.
At the same time, to avoid the explosion of the purple-gold staff, his figure darted out at an angle, moving as fast as a ghost.
However, whether by coincidence or on purpose, the direction he moved in was toward the people from the Holy Light Sect...
"Boom!"
A loud explosion echoed, and a fierce storm of energy swept the entire area.
Under the pressure of this storm, the people from the Holy Light Sect and the Xuan Dao Sect, who were not close, were forced to retreat further.
The explosion of a spirit weapon in the hands of an Eighth Heaven Qi Martial Realm expert was no small matter. The force of the impact was so great that even the user dared not face it head-on.
The self-destruction of a life-bound spirit weapon was extremely harmful to the user, and no one would do such a thing unless absolutely necessary.
The leader would not have done this if he hadn't seen Shen Lang's astonishing move.
In the flash of light, the few assassins who were already critically injured were instantly killed, none of them escaping!
When Shen Lang acted, it was either not at all or one move per person, giving them no chance to resist.
However, Shen Lang's rapid escape was still a step too slow, and he was hit by the storm. He grunted and his body flew like a broken kite toward the people from the Holy Light Sect!
"Heaven has a path, but you don't take it!"
The people from the Holy Light Sect were overjoyed, brandishing their spirit weapons, ready to kill him on the spot!
However, Shen Lang, hit by the storm, was not as miserable as everyone imagined...
As soon as he landed, Shen Lang's wrist shook, and a long sword spun in his palm, creating a dazzling trail of light. Then, with a light step, he moved like a ghost, rushing to the front of the people from the Holy Light Sect. With a simple swing of the sword, he was already on the other side.
"Rip, rip, rip..."
"Bang!"
The sword flashed, and almost simultaneously, the four people from the Holy Light Sect screamed, dropping their spirit weapons and clutching their necks tightly, their eyes wide open in disbelief as they looked at Shen Lang.
Yao Chengjie was luckier, escaping unharmed. The light shield from his armor blocked Shen Lang's Heavenly Water Blade, only knocking him to the ground without any injury. He lay on the ground, trembling and not daring to move.
Shen Lang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, turned around, and said coldly, "You all wanted to see my weapon, right? Now you've seen it. This sword is my weapon."
The long sword in his hand clattered and was stuck in the broken stones in front of him.
The people from the Holy Light Sect opened their mouths to speak, but only strange gurgling sounds came out, unable to form any words.
Blood continuously flowed from between their fingers...
Despair and fear spread in their hearts. The world before their eyes slowly turned gray, and they struggled to open their eyes, lingering in this world, but in the end, they unwillingly fell into darkness.
"Thud!"
The four people fell straight to the ground, their lives extinguished.
Even in death, they could not believe that the person they called a waste, Shen Lang, could so easily and effortlessly cut their throats and take their lives...
Yao Chengjie was unharmed, not receiving any injuries.
Even so, Yao Chengjie was pale, his body shaking uncontrollably, looking at Shen Lang as if he were an ancient, invincible beast...
He even forgot to run... or perhaps, he simply didn't dare to run!
"Spare me, please spare me, I swear I will never trouble you again... No, I swear to serve you for life! Please spare my life!"
No one could have imagined that the young master of the Holy Light Sect, a prestigious Black Iron-level force, would one day be kneeling on the ground, crying and begging for mercy...
If he had known this person was so powerful, how would Yao Chengjie have threatened him in the Treasure Gathering Pavilion?
If he had known this person was so ruthless, killing so cleanly and decisively, how would Yao Chengjie have dared to provoke him?
But there are no "if only" in this world. If he had known this day would come, he wouldn't have come to Tianfeng City at all...
