Boom!

The black escape light, imbued with formidable True Qi, rushed in like a whirlwind. Almost as soon as everyone laid eyes on it, it had flown from the peak of Nine Dragon Mountain to the sky above them.

"The Seventh Elder is here!"

"The Seventh Elder is here! With the Elder's arrival, there is no one above or below that can save Ye Qingchen now!"

The originally pale-faced and utterly desperate disciples of the Slaughter Hall also lifted their heads, noticing the swiftly darting escape light, and simultaneously let out a hysterical roar.

They rejoiced at the Elder's arrival.

They rejoiced that finally, someone could subdue this divine demon, Ye Qingchen!

"Ye Qingchen, die for me!"

In the astonished gazes of the crowd, that escape light soared skyward like a bolt of lightning, then suddenly descended straight down, like an arrow shot by Hou Yi, directly targeting Ye Qingchen with murderous intent.

The void of several hundred feet was crossed almost instantaneously, crashing down fiercely.

"Boom!"

A colossal sound erupted.

The entire Nine Dragon Mountain seemed to tremble, raising endless dust. Ye Qingchen had already retreated backward at the moment of impact, spreading his arms like a great bird, landing on the ground hundreds of meters away.

The crowd stared in shock, seeing a figure emerge from the dust, standing on the ground like a divine demon. The ground beneath Ye Qingchen's feet had completely collapsed under the impact.

Countless cobweb-like cracks spread densely in all directions.

"Ye Qingchen!"

Amidst the dust.

The figure slowly walked out—an exceedingly handsome middle-aged man with a long spear. His eyes burned with a green flame, radiating infinite killing intent: "You actually dare to forcibly invade our Slaughter Hall's camp!"

"It's the Seventh Elder of the Slaughter Hall!"

"It's Lin Kuanghu!"

"I always knew there was an elder stationed at Nine Dragon Mountain within the Slaughter Hall, but I never expected it to be him..."

Upon seeing this middle-aged man, the onlookers gasped collectively.

Those who knew Lin Kuanghu's identity turned pale.

It must be known.

Lin Kuanghu, holding a position in the Slaughter Hall—a place of madmen—and even serving as an elder, naturally relied on his cultivation of the Profound Pill Seventh Heaven and ruthless methods!

Though his cultivation was not as profound as the likes of the old guard Yuan Shisan, the number of beings who perished by his hand was not small.

It could be said that he rose to his current position stepping over a mountain of corpses amidst a sea of blood.

"Seventh Elder!"

"Seventh Elder!"

As the man intended to speak, the surroundings filled with mournful cries.

The numerous disciples of the Slaughter Hall wept profusely.

Some disciples even knelt on the ground, crying out pitifully: "Seventh Elder, we implore you to execute this beast! Our Slaughter Hall brought four hundred and eighty disciples to Nine Dragon Mountain this time, but now less than one in ten remain. Without seeing this beast being slashed by a thousand cuts, ground to dust, how can our fallen brothers rest in peace?"

Hearing this, Lin Kuanghu's gaze swept over the tragic scene around him, his eyes turning cold as he roared like an enraged tiger: "You dare slaughter the disciples of our Slaughter Hall!"

"Why wouldn't I dare?" Ye Qingchen stood with his hands behind his back, unshaken by the man's murderous posture, speaking calmly: "Since you, the Slaughter Hall, dared to pursue me, you should have known the consequences."

"What did you say?"

Lin Kuanghu hissed coldly, his killing intent almost tangible.

"This is nothing but you, the Slaughter Hall, reaping what you have sown!"

Ye Qingchen shook his head, saying:

"I've never seen a sect as shameless as your Spirit Coffin Sect, where disciples act wantonly, bullying others. The elders of the sect, in utter disregard of right and wrong, indiscriminately."

"Not only did you besiege me in Xingyue City, but you also issued a bounty on me. Since you wish for a relentless battle to the death, I, Ye Qingchen, will oblige you to the very end!"

Ye Qingchen's voice, initially soft, grew louder, eventually resonating throughout the entire Nine Dragon Mountain.

"I swear here today that one day, I will not only destroy your Slaughter Hall but also raze your Spirit Coffin Sect!"

Boom!

Upon these words, an uproar erupted throughout Nine Dragon Mountain.

Such a scene was unheard of, unseen.

Destroy the Slaughter Hall, raze the Spirit Coffin Sect!

What audacity does Ye Qingchen possess?

"With me here today, do you think you can leave Nine Dragon Mountain alive?" Lin Kuanghu clenched his fist, eyes ablaze with murderous intent. "I swear, today I will grind your bones to dust!"

Saying this, he suddenly stomped, and immense True Qi surged forth like black flames, shooting up a hundred meters high. Then, with a shake of his hands, he wielded his long spear, instantly releasing thousands of starlike spear glows.

These spear glows were like thousands of arrows shot simultaneously, sweeping through the void.

Looking up.

The entire sky over Nine Dragon Mountain seemed to transform into a starry sky. The endless stars on this celestial canopy appeared to be ignited in an instant by Lin Kuanghu's attack, overwhelming all!

This terrifying scene caused everyone around to feel a chill. As expected of the Seventh Elder of Slaughter Hall, such power with a single move.

Was this intended to obliterate Ye Qingchen in one strike?

"The Seventh Elder is here; that kid is doomed!"

All the disciples of Slaughter Hall clenched their fists, with fierce light flooding their eyes.

People from various surrounding factions secretly shook their heads.

It's not that they don't favor Ye Qingchen, but Lin Kuanghu's notoriety is overwhelming. Ye Qingchen, though accomplished, pales significantly in comparison. How could he possibly stand against Lin Kuanghu?

Faced with the approaching glows, capable of penetrating even space, let alone a mere mortal body.

Even Ye Qingchen couldn't help but be profoundly solemn. He knew well that within Nine Dragon Mountain sat a Slaughter Hall elder, not a figure like Yuan Shisan, who was in the Profound Core Ninth Heaven, but still an incredibly formidable character.

However.

He needed to leave Nine Dragon Mountain, to venture to Abyssal Valley.

Ye Qing was still in the hands of that mysterious master, her fate unknown.

Therefore.

He had to carve a bloody path out.

Just as he stated earlier.

Kill Gods if they stand in the path, destroy Buddhas if they block the way!

"Sword rise!"

Facing the fierce assault from Lin Kuanghu, Ye Qingchen held nothing back, simultaneously unleashing his sword stance. An imposing phantom rose behind him, and at the same time, with a grasp of his right hand.

In an instant, a multitude of Wind Flying Swords rapidly formed around him, bursting into a kaleidoscope of cyan light, rushing towards the myriad starlights.

Boom!

Over Nine Dragon Mountain, a dazzling light erupted. In the eyes of the shocked onlookers, those flying swords instantly shredded the myriad starlit spear glows.

Moreover, their momentum was undiminished, charging towards Lin Kuanghu.

"Humph!"

Witnessing this scene, Lin Kuanghu snorted coldly, pointing his spear. It transformed into a brilliant ray, charging forward. Yet Ye Qingchen suddenly clenched his right hand.

Boom!

The myriad flying swords merged into one like ten thousand swords returning, swiftly coalescing to form a single flying sword. This sword was merely three feet six inches long but crystal clear, emerald green, like it was forged from jade.

As it surged forward, its tip supported a hundred-meter diameter arc-shaped barrier, a spectacle formed by air resistance.

It struck directly at the tip of Lin Kuanghu's spear!

Dong!

A majestic sound erupted.

"What?"

At this moment.

Lin Kuanghu's expression changed dramatically.

He felt an unprecedented and horrifying force sweeping in like a tidal wave, coming with no warning, with no gap, already infiltrating his body.

Bang!

A terrifying explosion rang out.

In the incredulous eyes of all present, the ground suddenly burst and, amid countless turbulent air currents, Lin Kuanghu lost his balance, akin to an arrow that left the string, shooting back fiercely.

Traveling a hundred meters, he crashed heavily onto the ground, creating a trail several thousand meters long, finally halting against a huge rock.

"This..."

The entire place fell into dead silence.

Everyone stood frozen, in disbelief.

In the disbelieving eyes of the crowd.

The young man standing in the field suddenly looked up, his cold voice echoing across Nine Dragon Mountain: "Lin Kuanghu, you wish to kill me, but it won't be that easy!"
