Section 44

"Your younger brother Cloud Mountain also ambushed me halfway. If it wasn't for..." Xia Feng looked back, unsure what to call her for a moment.

Calling her 'Holy Maiden' felt too distant and would definitely make her angry, while calling her 'Wife' was overstepping the boundary, a hurdle he truly couldn't cross.

"If it wasn't for us wives arriving in time, you would have really succeeded!" The main wife, Sun Yazhu, snorted coldly and stepped forward first, as if knowing Xia Feng's thoughts, and spoke ahead of him.

"That's right, your Yunxiang Sect is truly arrogant! You dared to touch my man, Zhao Lingxuan!" Fiery Holy Maiden Zhao Lingxuan said angrily.

"Right..."

"Exactly..."

"So, I'm not here to negotiate with you." Xia Feng nodded, looking coldly at Cloud Elephant.

The people present that day also included his parents, a host of Xia Family members. If the Ten Great Saintesses hadn't come, their Xia Family would have been annihilated!

This was a life-and-death feud, one that would never end well!

"You... you can't be Xia Feng. He was only a Earth Rank Martial Venerable. How could he break through to Martial Emperor cultivation within three days? Senior, please stop playing tricks on me..."

Cloud Elephant swallowed hard. He couldn't understand, truly couldn't understand.

If a Martial Venerable could break through a minor Realm and a major Realm so easily, then how could he have been stuck at this Bottleneck for hundreds of years?

"Playing tricks?" Xia Feng shook his head, a cold light flashing in his eyes. "Believe it or not, I'm here for revenge today. Not a single person from your Yunxiang Sect will escape!"

After speaking, a afterimage instantly appeared on the ground. Spiritual energy gathered under Xia Feng's feet, and the Ethereal Dream Walk was immediately cast.

"No, Senior, I..."

Cloud Elephant's pupils shrank violently. He still wanted to plead his case, but Xia Feng had already arrived before him, raising his hands to strike two palms!

The Yunshan Sect's ultimate technique, the Cloud Mountain Hand!

The towering and powerful clouds transformed into substantial giant palms, dozens of times more terrifying than when Cloud Mountain used it that day!

"Ah!"

"Pfft!"

The two Elders standing beside Cloud Elephant, who were currently the two strongest Earth Rank Ninth Layer Martial Venerables under the Cloud Mountain Hand, were instantly sent flying by Xia Feng.

They spewed blood wildly, their bodies shattered by the violent Cloud Mountain Hand. Their True Spirits had just flown out when they were also twisted and shredded by the strong wind!

Everyone in the Yunxiang Sect, whether Elder or Disciple, felt immense fear rising in their hearts.

Is this the strength of a Martial Emperor?

Killing Earth Rank Ninth Layer Martial Venerables with just two casual palms was like slaughtering chickens and dogs.

"Cloud Mountain Hand, you... are you really Xia Feng?!"

A look of terror appeared in Cloud Elephant's pupils.

The Yunshan Sect was annihilated by the domineering Holy Maidens, and countless martial techniques flowed out. Xia Feng had not been on the path of cultivation for long. Besides him, there would be no one else who would Cultivate this martial technique!

Truly renowned Martial Emperor experts who had already made a name for themselves would certainly not go to a middle-grade Sect to learn their martial techniques. Even a supreme-grade Sect like the Yunxiang Sect was not qualified!

Therefore, the matter of breaking through from a low-level Martial Venerable to a Martial Emperor in three days was true!

"Damn it, why? How could you Cultivate to Martial Emperor so quickly!"

Cloud Elephant's face was twisted, an endless surge of jealousy arising in his heart. He had used countless methods to break through to Martial Emperor over several hundred years, but he could never cross that threshold.

And this man before him had broken through so casually in just three days.

This contrast stimulated him to the point of going mad.

"Does asking so much matter? Anyway, you're about to die." Xia Feng said expressionlessly.

"You..." Cloud Elephant was furious. Although his strength was among the best of Heaven Rank Ninth Layer Martial Venerables, facing a Martial Emperor, even a beginner Huang Realm First Layer Martial Emperor, he had no chance of winning.

"I know! You must have used some secret method to forcefully increase your cultivation! This is the only reasonable explanation!" A flash of inspiration struck Cloud Elephant's mind. He suddenly seemed to have thought of something and said with joy in his heart.

"Actually, your true Realm is at most Heaven Rank First Layer Martial Venerable. Your strength cannot be Martial Emperor. It's all just a facade!"

The more Cloud Elephant thought about it, the more certain he was that his guess was correct. He sneered, "Relying on the Ten Supreme Holy Maidens, you seem to have mastered quite a few cultivation secret methods, but do you think you can scare me by borrowing their prestige?!"

"There is a path to Heaven, but you didn't take it. There is no gate to Hell, yet you insisted on coming! Xia Feng, today I will let you know what it means to come and never return!"

"Is it really as you think? Wouldn't you know if you tried?" Xia Feng sneered.

"Go to Hell, you cunning brat!"

Cloud Elephant didn't say another word. His entire Aura instantly erupted, and he charged towards Xia Feng like a cannonball!

Chapter 49: Thunder Punishment Executes Cloud Elephant

Facing the opponent's attack, Xia Feng remained unmoved. He stood quietly in place.

One punch, one kick, one palm... No matter what Move the opponent used, Xia Feng merely defended calmly.

Cloud Elephant gritted his teeth and pulled out a giant axe. Xia Feng also drew the Qingxue Sword, but he still didn't actively attack, only continuously parrying the opponent.

He was feeling, feeling the increase in strength brought by being a Martial Emperor, understanding the toughness of his Physical Body.

Xia Feng's advancement speed was too fast, and his combat experience was too little. To truly unleash the strength of a Martial Emperor, the first step was to familiarize himself with his own abilities.

"Bastard, are you playing with me?!"

Seeing Xia Feng effortlessly dodge his attacks again and again, Cloud Elephant was furious.

"You're too weak. Didn't you eat?" Xia Feng frowned, seemingly a little dissatisfied. "Or is this the full strength of a Heaven Rank Martial Venerable?"

"Don't think you can act recklessly just because you forcefully increased your strength using a secret method. What is not cultivated by yourself is ultimately just an empty shell!"

Cloud Elephant roared. At this moment, he had completely concluded that Xia Feng was a fraud who was just borrowing prestige.

It was well known that Realms not achieved through one's own strength would never last.

Being of the Emperor rank was impossible. Xia Feng could never reach the Emperor rank in his life.

The only reasonable explanation was that Xia Feng had temporarily elevated himself to the Half-Step Emperor rank. This was the only way to explain why he could shatter space.

At this moment, Xia Feng was only dodging his attacks but not counterattacking, which undoubtedly meant he was afraid that using too much Half-Step Martial Emperor power would quickly reveal his true state.

Thinking of this, Cloud Elephant was unwilling to continue entanglement with him.

"You think you can reach Half-Step Martial Emperor? Kid, I will make you regret coming into this world!"

Cloud Elephant's hatred for Xia Feng had reached its peak. Since the opponent was unwilling to end things peacefully, there was no need for him to hold back any longer!

With the Ten Supreme Holy Maidens backing this kid, he couldn't hold onto the Yunxiang Sect either.

His younger brother was gone, most of the Sect Elders were dead, and now the Sect was also about to be gone.

Since that was the case, why should he keep Xia Feng alive?

First, kill this kid. At worst, he could escape the Great Xia Empire later!

"Secret Method, Nether Blood Demon Burst!"

Cloud Elephant roared upwards, directly biting through his tongue. A mouthful of black blood instantly gushed out.

The black blood surged out, immediately swirling around him. Cloud Elephant's own face also began to twist.

His original human appearance was gone, replaced by a fierce ghost with a green face and fangs!

At the same time, his Aura also climbed sharply, increasing by seven or eight times from his Heaven Rank Ninth Layer Martial Venerable Aura!

Half-Step Martial Emperor!

"Heh heh, Xia Feng, now I am also a Half-Step Martial Emperor."

"To kill you, I sacrificed five hundred years of my lifespan. You should truly be proud!"

Cloud Elephant looked greedily at his arms. The strength of a Half-Step Martial Emperor was truly fascinating.

At this moment, he even felt that he could shatter the mountain supporting the Yunxiang Sect with a single punch!

Xia Feng smiled and clapped his hands, encouraging, "The Realm of Half-Step Martial Emperor, now that's more like it."

Damn it!

Cloud Elephant's smile instantly froze. Could Xia Feng not see the difference between them? How dare he still provoke him?

"Bastard! Go to Hell!"

He roared and bellowed, his demonized body erupting with the power of a mountain collapse and a sea tsunami, leaping towards Xia Feng!

A giant blade flashing with terrifying energy fiercely slashed down. The weaker inner Disciples of the Yunxiang Sect present all lowered their heads, not daring to look at the sharp axe blade. Some of them had already vomited blood from the terrifying Aura!

"Husband, it's so boring for you to play alone. We're making our Move too." Sky Fox Saintess Yu Siya looked up and shouted to the sky.

"Good!"

Her response was only a single word from Xia Feng.

"No, what do you want to do?!"

The remaining eight Elders of the Yunxiang Sect looked at the Ten Supreme Holy Maidens approaching them with extreme fear.

"We have three Earth Rank Martial Venerables and five Xuan Realm Martial Warriors here. Are you ten Huang Realm Martial Venerables looking for death?" The Fourth Elder shouted.

But unfortunately, the Ten Great Saintesses completely ignored him and directly attacked!

Ten Huang Realm Martial Venerables? That depends on who they are!
