230: They shall all be buried with this decaying body of mine!

"Now! War God Nine Tribulations — Saint Slaughter!"

Xiao Ruobai's halberd erupted with an unprecedented brilliant golden light, piercing straight toward Ku Xuan's exposed chest, which was wide open due to his Domain being suppressed!

"Chaos Returning to the Void!"

Fang Hanyu swept his fingers like a sword, and a gray Sword Qi silently sliced toward the Meridian nodes where Ku Xuan's saintly power was flowing most sluggishly!

"Dao Severance!"

Ling Xi pointed her fingers like a sword, and an extremely condensed Devouring Finger Wind arrived first despite being launched later, striking the weakest point where Ku Xuan's Divine Soul connected with his Saint Domain!

"No!!!"

Ku Xuan let out a roar of shock and fury. He tried to block and dodge, but his entire body felt wrapped in an invisible mire. His movements were as slow as a snail, and mobilizing his saintly power was arduous!

He could only watch helplessly as those three fatal attacks, with incredible angles and timing, struck with pinpoint accuracy at his most uncomfortable and undefendable positions!

Boom! Shink! Pfft—!

The golden halberd light tore through his protective Death Qi, the Chaos Sword Qi annihilated the Laws he tried to condense, and the Devouring Finger Wind directly dealt a heavy blow to the connection between his Saint Soul and Domain!

Ku Xuan felt as if he had been struck by a massive weight. His withered body flew backward like a tattered sack. What he spat out was no longer ordinary blood, but gray blood containing Origin saintly power!

The Death Qi around him dissipated rapidly, and that terrifying Extinction Domain shattered inch by inch like broken glass!

He slammed heavily onto the ground, his Aura instantly withering to the extreme. His eyes were filled with disbelief, humiliation, and sky-high rage!

Pfft—!

He spat out another mouthful of Life Saint Blood and looked up, staring fixedly at the slowly approaching trio of Xiao Ruobai. His voice was hoarse and distorted, filled with frustration and collapse:

"This... what on earth is this?! Suppressing my Domain... you... you aren't fighting... this is bullying! Shameless! Despicable!"

He had lived for thousands of years and experienced countless battles, but he had never been so frustrated as he was today!

Despite having a saintly power Realm far exceeding his opponents, he was suppressed like a wooden man by a completely incomprehensible method, left with no choice but to take the beating passively!

This was more painful than killing him!

The onlookers were dumbfounded.

In the distance, all the Cultivators who saw this scene were completely stunned.

They only saw that Saint Ku Xuan had originally held the upper hand, aggressively launching a finishing blow, and then... then he suddenly became stiff as if hit by a Body-Fixing Curse. Next, he was easily heavily injured and sent flying by those three youngsters. Now, he was actually lying on the ground, cursing in a fit of rage?

"What... what happened? Why did that old Saint suddenly fail?"

"I didn't see clearly! It just felt like he suddenly became very clumsy, and then he was hit..."

"What is he yelling? Bullying? Who's bullying whom? He's a Saint being beaten like this by three Heavenly Humans, and he's still accusing others of bullying him?"

"This old Saint... could it be that he's too old and... suddenly went mad while fighting?"

A Cultivator guessed cautiously, his face full of sympathy and disbelief.

The confused onlookers completely failed to understand the frustration and anger originating from the depths of Ku Xuan's Soul.

They only saw the result—an overbearing Saint was easily heavily injured by three youngsters using a seemingly bizarre method, and he had even broken down and started cursing.

At the peak of a mountain not far away, shrouded in a natural mist Formation, the Great Ancestor's figure was almost merged with the mountain rocks, his Aura restrained like a stubborn stone.

His gaze was like lightning, piercing through the Void Realm, taking in the entire battle in the valley.

His face, which usually carried a bit of a fiery temper, was now full of astonishment and... a hint of admiration that was hard to hide but had to be suppressed, making his expression look a bit strange.

"Well fought!"

He cheered silently in his heart, his bell-like eyes flashing with brilliant light. His clenched fist swung silently in the air, as if he couldn't wait to personally join in and cheer.

"Damn it... these three little brats... are truly Reincarnations of Prodigies! To force a Saint to the point of flying into a rage, having his Dao Heart collapse, and lying on the ground cursing, all while in the Heavenly Human Realm... in all my years, this is the first time I've seen such a thing! The disciples Changge took in... are truly... truly..."

He "truly"-ed for a long time, seemingly trying to find a word to describe it but failing.

Then, he seemed to remember something. His powerful Saint King Divine Sense, like an invisible net, once again silently swept across the entire area, his brow furrowing slightly.

"That kid Xuan Yangzi said that bastard Wanshan must be lurking nearby to protect them... he can really hide! My Saint King Realm Divine Thought swept through several times and still hasn't dragged him out!"

"Hmph... but I did scan a few sneaky brats hiding their heads and tails..."

A flash of severity crossed his eyes, but he suppressed the urge to act immediately. Taking a deep breath, he patiently continued to remain hidden.

"Wait... just you all wait... see if I don't beat the crap out of you!"

At the edge of the valley, in an inconspicuous corner.

Shi Wanshan was currently operating his Breath-Concealing Cultivation Technique with all his might. His whole person seemed to have turned into a part of the mountain rocks; his Aura, Karma, and even his sense of presence were restrained to the extreme.

Even the Great Ancestor of the Saint King Realm would find it difficult to detect him easily. He stared wide-eyed at the battlefield, his heart already churning with stormy waves.

"Strong! Too strong! Eldest Martial Nephew's War God Body is overbearing! Martial Nephew Fang's Chaos Sword Intent is tricky! Martial Nephew Ling's Devouring Power is bizarre! Their cooperation is even more seamless!!"

Seeing Ku Xuan being heavily injured and cursing in frustration by the three of them, he was so excited he almost couldn't resist slapping his thigh and cheering.

Suddenly, that absurd thought of "becoming Gu Changge's disciple," like the most stubborn weed, once again grew uncontrollably from the bottom of his heart. No matter how he tried to suppress it, he couldn't get rid of it.

At this time, Xiao Ruobai and the other two ignored Ku Xuan's curses. Their gazes were cold as they pressed closer step by step.

Strike while he's down!

Looking at the approaching trio, especially the faint, bizarre Domain fluctuations around them that he hated to the core, Ku Xuan spat out another mouthful of Life Saint Blood in anger, staining the ground in front of him red.

He was half-kneeling on the ground, his Aura withered to the extreme. But in those cloudy eyes, instead of despair, a near-insane malice and determination burned!

I'm not willing! This old man is not willing!

A voice roared frantically in his heart, filled with unspeakable humiliation and sky-high hatred!

Why?!

I, once a grand Saint King, would actually lose today to three juniors of the Heavenly Human Realm?! Beaten so miserably by them, with my Saint blood spilled and my face completely lost!

He was previously in the Saint King Realm, and only because his Qi and blood had decayed had his cultivation slipped to the Early Stage of the Saint Realm, but he was still a true Saint!

All below the Saint Realm are ants; this is an eternal and unchangeable iron Law!

But today, this iron Law was broken, and it was broken by three impossibly young juniors, right in front of countless people!

Those discussions faintly coming from a distance, filled with shock, pity, and even schadenfreude, were like countless steel needles stabbing into his ears, piercing the pride and dignity he had maintained for thousands of years!

Ku Xuan's rationality completely burned away in the flames of jealousy and hatred, and the last trace of weighing and hesitation also vanished!

Since the Heavenly Dao bestowed you with such talent, yet let this old man encounter you before his end... then it is Heaven's will for me to act on behalf of the Dao and thoroughly stifle you future giants right here!

Let your talent, your Anomalies, and your lives be buried together with this old man's decaying body!
