Chapter 69

As the great battle erupted, with every breath, cultivators fell, marking the end of Taiheng Sect.

Yang Xi, Liu Changxing, and Xiao Hu rushed to the scene, with Li Shuisheng still on Xiao Hu's shoulder.

"Brother Gu..." Li Shuisheng, upon hearing the explosion from the upper level, rushed up without hesitation. During this time, he was attacked by the cultivators of the Landon Pavilion, narrowly escaping death but suffering severe injuries. He was eventually saved by Xiao Hu.

"Zibi, what's going on!" Xiao Hu frowned. He and Zibi were both exceptionally talented, receiving special treatment from Taiheng Sect. Xiao Hu rarely interacted with other cultivators, and only Zibi knew his thoughts.

There was no need to ask too many questions about the current situation.

"Hmph, still worrying about that stupid woman, you're really beyond saving. Uncle Tuye, the two old men have already been dealt with by Enlightenment True Person. As for these few little ones, will you make a move, or should I play with them?" Yifeng's cultivation was unmatched, except for the three heads of the academies, no one could surpass him.

Tuye glanced at Gu Xuyao and shook his head.

"Forget it, since you're so interested, I'll let you have it."

Yifeng bowed slightly to Tuye and looked forward.

"You few, come together if you dare. I'll let you taste the new cultivation technique taught to me by the Landon Pavilion." As he spoke, a faint blue light appeared in Yifeng's eyes.

The best temptation to make a cultivator betray their sect is, of course, cultivation techniques.

"Ha!" Gu Xuyao roared, lightning enveloping his body. Facing a traitor like Yifeng, Gu Xuyao would never back down!

The situation was beyond redemption; if they were to fight, they would fight together!

Yixia also let out a fierce cry, her movements faster than Gu Xuyao's. Sparks erupted from her palm, and a wave of flames surged towards Yifeng under her control.

Yifeng coldly snorted, not fearing Yixia's technique. Lightning flashed, and Yifeng was enveloped in lightning, unleashing the Thunder Roar in a more refined manner than Gu Xuyao!

The lightning and fire collided!

A loud explosion, a burst of white light, and the two figures intertwined. Yifeng's punch broke through Yixia's flames, and she frowned, blocking her face with both arms.

A dull "thud" sounded, and Yixia was sent flying, landing and retreating dozens of steps before being caught by Gu Xuyao.

"The Landon Pavilion is really generous, even giving you pills to enhance your cultivation." Yixia narrowed her left eye, sensing that Yifeng's cultivation was different from before. Indeed, to make Yifeng betray, the Landon Pavilion had truly invested a lot, not only in cultivation techniques but also in pills to increase his internal yuan force. At this point, Yifeng was just a step away from the third layer of the Root Birth Realm.

"Ha ha ha, nonsense. Do you think such pills are precious to the Landon Pavilion? Let me tell you, once today's matters are over, I will soon enter the third layer of the Root Birth Realm. At my age, breaking through to the Source Transformation Realm is a matter of course. As for whether I can achieve even greater things in the future, who knows? After all, I am not like you; I have a strong backing!"

Yifeng was very satisfied with his current power. Yixia was no match for him, but he wouldn't win so easily.

"Thud"

Gu Xuyao stomped heavily, the ground sinking. He raised his head, lightning crackling around him.

"Is that so." He looked at Yifeng. "You are indeed strong, but are you as strong as Bai Xing, who can control puppets?" He smiled coldly. "At that time, only Sister Yixia and I were there. Yulin used his will to save us, almost killing Bai Xing. Today, I have Sister Yixia and many fellow disciples by my side. They told me that even if Taiheng Sect is destroyed, they will crush you, the traitor, to dust!"

Gu Xuyao's words ignited everyone's fighting spirit. Liu Changxing led the charge, his body suddenly swelling grotesquely, his muscles bulging and tearing through his robe. Like a boulder, he charged straight at Yifeng!

Yifeng coldly snorted, not fearing such an attack. Lightning enveloped him again, forming a storm of electric light.

The fourth roar of the Thunder Roar, Qi Surge!

Dense lightning emitted a terrifying aura, but Liu Changxing was undaunted, crashing into the lightning. Several loud explosions sounded, and the Qi Surge, which was almost at the third layer of the Root Birth Realm, was broken through by Liu Changxing!

Seize the moment!

This was Liu Changxing burning his own life. If not, he wouldn't have been able to break through Yifeng's technique. Everyone understood this. Although Yang Xi was usually cowardly, he now threw caution to the wind, unleashing all his skills in a full attack on Yifeng!

"You foolish things, do you think I only know the petty tricks of Taiheng Sect!"

Yifeng's body spun, forming a blue light curtain in the air. The curtain, like a flowing cloak, completely enveloped him.

All of Yang Xi's attacks hit the blue light curtain, but without any effect. Suddenly, a long sword emerged from the curtain, too swift for Yang Xi to dodge!

Blood splattered, and Yang Xi narrowly avoided a fatal blow, but his arm was severed. The blue light curtain then dissipated, revealing Yifeng holding the sword.

"Hmph, overestimating yourselves. You have contributed so much to Taiheng Sect, but Ling San Shi never gave you a precious weapon. Now, I haven't even joined the Landon Pavilion, yet I have a fourth-grade precious weapon. Tell me, what is the point of your actions!" Yifeng sneered, brandishing the long sword.

The battle around them was intense, with Ling Ao and Ren Wuyou fighting Enlightenment True Person below. Although Ling Ao and Ren Wuyou were already at the third layer of the Root Birth Realm, they had not yet broken through to the Source Transformation Realm. However, with their deep cultivation and combined attack, they were not immediately defeated by Enlightenment True Person.

"Fourth-grade precious weapon?" Yang Xi was drenched in cold sweat, walking to his severed arm, picking it up, and holding it. "Yes, the weapon is powerful, but we are living beings, not puppets controlled by treasures and techniques." Yang Xi burned his severed arm with his remaining hand. "You can destroy my body, but you cannot trample my dignity!"

Yang Xi roared, attacking with his remaining arm!

At the same time, Gu Xuyao, Liu Changxing, and Yixia all attacked Yifeng!

Lightning, flames, and heavy punches all aimed at Yifeng, but he showed no fear.

"Word of Eternity!" Among Taiheng Sect's techniques, the Word of Eternity was the most powerful, usually only the sect leader could practice it. As Ling San Shi's most trusted disciple, Yifeng had the privilege of learning two techniques. The Word of Eternity was simple and straightforward, emphasizing absolute power, whether in speed, physique, or brute force.

Yifeng's entire body glowed purple, and his aura changed!

"Fourth Roar, Qi Surge!"

With the enhancement of the Word of Eternity, the lightning from the Qi Surge turned purple-white. Although Yifeng was still at the second layer of the Root Birth Realm, the power of this technique was extremely terrifying!

Xiao Hu and Gu Xuyao, with lower cultivation, dared not face it head-on, but if they didn't attack, Yifeng would be invincible.

Liu Changxing roared, his already enlarged body swelling further, like a meteor, crashing straight into Yifeng!

Everyone knew Liu Changxing was creating a path for them. No one hesitated, following the path he opened, attacking Yifeng together!

"Boom!" Liu Changxing was sent flying, the power of the Word of Eternity!

His body returned to its original size, falling like a broken kite onto the battlefield. He was defeated, but the others were not!

No one checked on Liu Changxing, as they, like him, had only one goal in mind!

"Kill!"

Yang Xi, after losing his arm, became even more fierce, changing his usual demeanor, roaring and delivering a punch filled with anger!

Yifeng's casual blow that sent Liu Changxing flying was not as easy as it seemed. As a cultivator, he needed to adjust the yuan force within his body.

The human wave tactic finally paid off. Yang Xi hit Yifeng's lower abdomen, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. His face twisted, and he kicked Yang Xi's chin, the sound of bones breaking, and Yang Xi was sent flying, clearly not surviving.

"Roar!"

The second roar, unceasing, Gu Xuyao had now mastered this technique. The weakness from his long coma had disappeared, and now he was filled with anger!

His massive fists mercilessly struck Yifeng's chest, and a stream of blood spurted out as Yifeng was sent flying by Gu Xuyao!

"Thud"

Yifeng fell to the ground, weak and powerless. The boasts he made earlier were now forgotten.

"Yixia..." Yifeng, clutching his chest as if it were splitting, looked at Yixia approaching step by step. She was still as beautiful, her beauty enhanced by the surrounding flames and screams.

She said nothing, her eyes devoid of any pity. The flames in her hands spoke for her, and her flowing hair was her action.

But Yifeng was not alone. A lightning-fast figure attacked, and Yixia, in a panic, had to jump back before she could deliver the killing blow.

"Thud" A large pit appeared where Yixia had been standing, the result of the Shattered Stone Foot, one of Tuye's most skilled techniques.

"Tsk tsk, Yifeng, you said you wanted to play, but now you're so weak. You, you, you have disappointed me." Tuye sneered, picking up the long sword Yifeng had dropped. "I saved your life this time, so I'll keep this treasure. After all, I am your uncle. As for how you will thank me in the future, we'll discuss that later."

Tuye, no longer looking at Yifeng, turned to Yixia and Gu Xuyao.

"You two..."

"Boom!"

A deafening explosion! The entire upper level of Taiheng Sect shook, and all the cultivators stopped their activities. Half of the upper level of Taiheng Sect was destroyed in this explosion!

"Hmm, the Death Grass led me here. It seems there is something I want here."

Everyone's attention focused on the air, where a cultivator was floating, exactly three zhang above the ground!
