The instant Jiang Chen reached his decision, he immediately unleashed his Void Tribulation Soul, causing his combat prowess to surge exponentially. Gripping his Silver Immortal Sword firmly, he lifted it high above his head and executed a ferocious downward slash. 'Myriad Changes Hidden Void Blade Technique, strike!'
"Damn it!" Both Sun Tianlin and the still-present Sun Tianxin felt an overpowering sense of mortal peril envelop them at the same moment. They shivered, their bodies turning icy cold from head to toe!
Their finely-tuned combat instincts activated without a moment's delay, urging them to initiate defensive actions.
"Spiritual Sky Covering Shield!" Sun Tianxin quickly unleashed a shield, which morphed into a translucent golden barrier that encased him entirely.
Sun Tianlin, on the other hand, was less fortunate. His entire wealth had been seized by Jiang Chen, leaving him with nothing but a defensive secret art to rely on.
Moreover, Jiang Chen's surprise assault had caught him unawares. Despite his swift response, Sun Tianlin was still a fraction of a second too late.
Add to that, Sun Tianlin had struggled against Bo Luncang, whereas Jiang Chen had outright slain Bo Luncang himself!
Now, Jiang Chen's primary target for extermination was Sun Tianlin, without a doubt.
In a state of panic, Sun Tianlin hastily activated an array of magical barriers around himself for protection.
However, against Jiang Chen's Silver Immortal Sword, these barriers proved completely futile. The multiple layers shattered effortlessly, much like a hot knife slicing through butter.
"No!! I beg you..." Sun Tianlin's plea of absolute despair was abruptly cut short—his severed head already flying through the air, a fountain of blood spewing from the neck. His life force was extinguished instantaneously by the fearsome power.
It was only at this juncture that Sun Ji's mother and the rest of the Sun Clan snapped back to reality. Their eyes dilated in utter shock and terror, staring at the lifeless Sun Tianlin.
A great powerhouse of the Nirvana Peering realm had been executed right before their very eyes—in an instant!
The sheer horror and disbelief burst forth, saturating their entire selves and eclipsing rational thought. A transient mental void gripped the minds of all those who witnessed the scene.
Sun Tianxin, another powerhouse in the Nirvana Peering realm who had managed to maintain his composure, was equally stunned, his visage a mask of disbelief.
A fellow Nirvana Peering realm powerhouse had been vanquished just like that—slain in a mere moment without even a sliver of opportunity for resistance!
In the next instant, a torrent of unbridled fury surged from the deepest recesses of Sun Tianxin's heart. "Bastard! You dare to extinguish a life from my Sun Clan; today, I'll carve you up, feast on your flesh, and finally reduce you to mere ashes!"
Almost a fourth of the Prosperous Stone Immortal Star was under the dominion of the Sun Clan. Now, someone had actually had the audacity to slay a Nirvana Peering realm powerhouse of the Sun Clan right on this very star. Such an act was beyond intolerable and utterly inexcusable!
Sun Tianxin was well aware that he likely couldn't vanquish the adversary himself.
Yet, in his mind, all he had to do was to ensnare Jiang Chen, making escape an impossibility for him.
Once the Sun Clan's ancestor, a powerhouse in the Nirvana Cleansing realm named Sun Xiangyuan, arrived, the opponent would be as insignificant as a doomed ant!
Consequently, without a moment's hesitation, Sun Tianxin lunged directly at Jiang Chen.
Events unfolded at a breakneck speed. While the rest of the Sun Clan was still reeling from the sudden demise of Sun Tianlin, Sun Tianxin had already closed the distance to Jiang Chen.
However, a glacial killing intent flickered in Jiang Chen's eyes. Unleashing the might of a true dragon, he metamorphosed into his dragon-human hybrid form. 'Death Calamity True Dragon!'
An even more potent aura emanated from him, propelling him straight into the Late-stage Nirvana Peering realm!
"What! How can this be!" Sun Tianxin's facial expression underwent a drastic transformation, his pupils shrinking to the size of mung beans. His heart momentarily skipped a beat before thundering in his chest like a frenzied drumroll.
A boundless sense of dread surged from the core of his being. Driven by a primal instinct for self-preservation, Sun Tianxin yearned to retreat and flee at any cost.
In that critical moment, Sun Tianxin unleashed various self-damaging secret arts, even materializing a flying immortal tool around himself.
Nevertheless, even with such measures, his speed still paled in comparison to Jiang Chen's.
"Perish!" With a mere flicker of thought, Jiang Chen activated the speed-boosting feature of his Nine Pointed Radiant Star Ring, materializing behind Sun Tianxin as if he had transcended the fabric of space itself.
In the next moment, his Silver Immortal Sword, infused with the energies of various Great Daos, effortlessly sliced through Sun Tianxin's feeble defenses.
"It's impossible! Aaagh!!" Sun Tianxin's agonizing scream reverberated through the heavens, followed almost immediately by a death-cry marking his end.
Slash!
His head shot skyward, blood splattering like rain against the sky!
Sun Ji's mother, Sun Liu, and the others were still reeling from their initial shock when they saw Sun Tianxin also plummet, slain!
Immediately, a more potent wave of astonishment and terror surged, rendering everyone speechless, their mouths hanging open in disbelief.
Then, with a mere wave of his right hand, Jiang Chen executed his Death Attraction Nine Tribulations Sword Technique. A hundred streams of sword Qi erupted from his Silver Immortal Sword, precisely cleaving through all who remained.
The air was saturated with the pungent scent of blood, so dense that it refused to dissipate.
'Death Calamity Dark Star Moon Dao Embryo, Wordless Heavenly Jade,' Jiang Chen mentally intoned, transforming all the corpses into specks of blood-colored light and clusters of pure cultivation base, which he then absorbed into his own body.
'Not a bad haul,' he thought, sensing the freshly acquired qi and blood along with the cultivation base. He nodded to himself, satisfied.
In this engagement, Jiang Chen had eradicated two Early-stage Nirvana Peering realm powerhouses along with over fifty Transcendence realm powerhouses of various cultivation levels. Additionally, the efficiency of the Death Calamity Dark Star Moon Dao Embryo in absorbing cultivation bases had improved to one-fifth.
As a consequence, Jiang Chen acquired a considerable boost in his cultivation base, edging him closer to the Middle-stage Nirvana Peering realm. His combat power also saw a corresponding increase.
The qi and blood energy he harvested was even more plentiful, sufficient for him to undertake the practice of two Nirvana Peering-level cultivation methods.
After gathering all of Sun Tianlin and the others' belongings, Jiang Chen said, "Wan'er, Ning'er, choose some cultivation methods for me." Then, cloaking himself, he activated the Nine Pointed Radiant Star Ring and soared into the distance.
Minutes later, a band of people rushed to the scene, their expressions tinged with uncertainty. Leading them was Lang Xingyuan from the Compassionate Sword Immortal Palace.
Although he had departed with his group a bit earlier, he soon sensed the vibrations of a battle at the Nirvana Peering level and quickly returned.
Upon their arrival, however, all they found were remnants of battle qi; the scene was otherwise empty.
'When was the last time the Prosperous Stone Immortal Star witnessed such an intense, high-level clash?' Lang Xingyuan mused, his heart pounding with amazement and anxiety.
'It's likely that Sun Tianlin and his people were involved. Yet, it's shocking that two Nirvana Peering realm powerhouses could vanish without a trace. Could demonic forces be the culprits?'
'Sun Tianlin had returned from the Immortal Martial Continent leading a million-strong army and acting oddly. There must've been some underlying issue.'
'Is it possible that a demonic powerhouse is manipulating Sun Tianlin to open a spatial channel, thereby infiltrating the Prosperous Stone Immortal Star?' As this thought crossed his mind, Lang Xingyuan shivered, his heart chilled by the dread that gripped him.
Capable of dispatching both Sun Tianlin and Sun Tianxin in a duel, whoever was behind this could easily eliminate him, Lang Xingyuan, as if swatting a fly.
An overwhelming sense of dread flooded his heart. Wasting no time, Lang Xingyuan crushed a blue talisman that he held.
Instantly, a wave of potent spatial energy emanated from the talisman, whisking him and his companions away to another locale.
'He made a quick getaway. But even if they had stayed, striking them down now wouldn't be prudent,' Jiang Chen mused. 'The demise of Sun Tianlin and his companions is bound to spread. Silencing these people won't keep it a secret; it would only draw the Compassionate Sword Immortal Palace's wrath.'
'Both the Compassionate Sword Immortal Palace and the Purple Crest Immortal Sect lay claim to the Prosperous Stone Immortal Star. Their ongoing friction works well as a distraction for the Purple Crest Immortal Sect.'
'Undoubtedly, the Sun Clan and the Purple Crest Immortal Sect will be incensed by the deaths of Sun Tianlin and the others, triggering a hunt for me. But the presence of the Compassionate Sword Immortal Palace should give the Purple Crest Immortal Sect pause.' With these thoughts, he promptly veered away and continued his flight.
