319: This guy is a ruthless one.

In the vast sea, two figures stood on a giant spear, heading towards the deep sea.

The two men were tall and slender, with handsome faces and upright postures, just like the spear beneath their feet, standing straight and possessing extraordinary temperament and demeanor.

From their essence, they seemed out of place with the people of the Sea of Buried Demons, showing no trace of ferocity around them.

These two were precisely the two Saints of Dianxing Academy, Feng Wuliang and Ji Tiange.

"A small Suspended City actually caused dozens of Prodigies and Saints from various Sects to perish. This is truly an astonishing feat. Who exactly set up such a grand scheme? It's truly a headache."

Feng Wuliang held a wine gourd, drinking leisurely, his gaze idly fixed on the distance.

Their destination was the Suspended City, which was currently at the center of attention.

One reason was to assess the situation and see if they could find any clues. The other was to try their luck and see if they could encounter their old rival, Holy Son Tian Que.

Ji Tiange lay on the spear, saying lazily, "Why are you thinking so much? With just the two of us, even if we knew, it would be futile."

"Unless Junior Martial Uncle Luo makes a move himself, otherwise, finding those hidden behind the scenes will be incredibly difficult."

Ji Tiange did not hold much hope for this mission.

In reality, their outing was somewhat out of necessity.

Among One Sect and Three Halls, apart from Zhong Moli and Li Xingdou making an appearance, the Saint of their Star Palace did not show up, but was also suspected, suggesting that this matter was inseparable from One Sect and Three Halls.

Especially the experts of Six Mansions and Twelve Caves, who would likely think this way, as apart from One Sect and Three Halls, almost no one in the Inner Sea would dare to attack them!

Of course, Star Palace did not want to bear this blame. Coincidentally, Ji Tiange and Feng Wuliang were going to look for Heavenly Que, so this matter naturally fell to them, asking them to secretly investigate who was behind the scheme.

"Forget it, since we're already here, we should at least check the situation. I just wonder if that fellow from Holy Heaven Demon Sect will show up."

Feng Wuliang sealed his wine gourd and sat down cross-legged. They had been in the Inner Sea for a long time, had undergone their trials, and had found the whereabouts of the person they were looking for. Originally, they could have returned early.

However, too many things had happened in the Inner Sea recently, and they were reluctantly pressed into service by Luo Tianchuan... Suspended City!

Holy Son Tian Que, bearing the Great Missing, his burly figure like an iron tower, slowly walked down from the flying boat.

His gaze was calm and extremely indifferent.

He paid no attention to the Cultivators looking at him as they passed by.

Although he had only arrived a few months ago, he was already famous in the Inner Sea!

Firstly, his identity as a Saint of Holy Heaven Demon Sect was already well-known in the Inner Sea. People from various top forces would give him some face.

Secondly, his strength was exceptionally formidable!

He once slapped to death an Elder from a major force, and with his Great Missing sword, he suppressed several Saints from Six Mansions and Twelve Caves who were ranked among the top twenty on the holy son ranking!

Such glorious achievements made it hard for people not to remember him.

"It's Holy Son Tian Que of Holy Heaven Demon Sect. I heard that some time ago, he fought with Feng Wuliang and Ji Tiange of Dianxing Academy and was severely injured. Has he recovered so quickly?"

"This guy is a ruthless person. Only those with equivalent Realm and cultivation can deal with him. He has almost beaten all the Saints on the Inner Sea holy son ranking!"

"Why would he come to Suspended City today? Doesn't he know that recent rumors suggest the deaths of the Saints and Prodigies of Six Mansions and Twelve Caves are related to One Sect and Three Halls? Is he making such a grand display to show something?"

"Who cares if he knows or not? Among the Inner Sea's top forces, besides a few, who else could secretly eliminate so many Saints? With Holy Son Tian Que's cultivation, it's entirely possible!"

Hiss... The expressions of many Cultivators looking at Heavenly Missing grew even more uneasy, filled with fear and suspicion.

Indeed, this guy Heavenly Que's strength was truly formidable, and his appearance in the city now, regardless of his purpose, couldn't help but arouse suspicion!

Heavenly Que walked down the street, his gaze as indifferent as ever. The rumors naturally fell into his ears, not a single word missed.

But how could he take them to heart?

Even if he really killed them, so what?

He didn't care at all!

As for not killing these gossiping people, it was merely because their strength was too meager, not worthy of him making a move.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Heavenly Que's steps halted, and he stood on the street.

His indifferent eyes looked up at the sky, standing motionless.

A gentle breeze ruffled his wild long hair, and his black tight-fitting attire fluttered in the wind.

In the sky, dark clouds gathered, exuding a heavy atmosphere!

The Cultivators in the city also sensed the abnormality immediately. Within the clouds, there seemed to be a terrifying Vicious Beast, staring at him!

"Heavenly Que!"

Above the sky, a voice filled with oppressive Qi suddenly rang out!

The gentle breeze instantly became wild, and fierce winds swirled, causing dust to fly on the streets. Houses, trees, and wine jars by the roadside were all swept around by that inexplicable gale.

A powerful Aura suddenly enveloped the entire city, and everything seemed to freeze at this moment!

Seeing this, the Cultivators throughout the city all showed looks of shock.

"What a powerful Aura! Who is it that has come?"

"It's over, it's over, I think someone from Six Mansions and Twelve Caves has made a move!"

"As soon as he arrives, he attacks Holy Son Tian Que? Is the rumor true, that the deaths of those Saints are really related to Qi Mo Sect?"

"Who knows if it's related? No one made a move for so long, but as soon as Holy Son Tian Que appeared, someone made a move. Even if it's false, it seems to have some truth to it!"

"They won't start fighting here, will they? If they start fighting, we won't have time to run away!"

Many Cultivators complained incessantly.

They had thought that the experts from those top forces wouldn't arrive so quickly.

But now it seemed they had thought too simply. In reality, some people had already arrived secretly.

They just hadn't shown themselves yet!

"You hidden coward, get out here and let me send you on your way!"

Holy Son Tian Que was not an easy person to deal with, and his cultivation was already extremely strong. In the Inner Sea, those who could hold him back were at least Elder-level experts from top forces!

Evidently, just from this Aura, he judged that the strength of the newcomer was not enough to make him bow his head!

"What big words!"

"It seems the deaths of the Saints of Six Mansions and Twelve Caves are indeed related to your One Sect and Three Halls. You'd better surrender obediently today and come back with this old man to explain things clearly!"

In the Void Realm, an old figure suddenly appeared.

The newcomer was thin, with fierce eyes, and a powerful Aura that had reached the Heavenly Elephant Realm Sixth Level!

In the Inner Sea, he was definitely considered a top-tier existence!

There was a Qilin emblem on his chest, indicating that the newcomer's identity was from Qilin Mansion!

..."It's Elder Bamen of Qilin Mansion, Xiang Tiande!"

"It really is him! This is an expert at the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm Sixth Level. In Qilin Mansion, he's considered a mid to upper-tier figure!"

"Is Xiang Tiande representing Qilin Mansion? Or is he an expert from Six Mansions and Twelve Caves? If it's just Qilin Mansion, then he arrived really quickly. Have the others from Six Mansions and Twelve Caves also arrived?"

"I think it's about time. However, they are all secretly investigating the experts who killed those Saints, and it's very likely they are like Xiang Tiande, hidden in the shadows and haven't shown themselves!"

"Tsk tsk, even Xiang Tiande has appeared. It seems this time, Holy Son Tian Que is in trouble!"

"Trouble? You probably don't know the origin of Holy Son Tian Que, do you?"

"Isn't he a Saint of Qi Mo Sect?"

"Tch, where are you from that you don't even know the origin of the famous Holy Son Tian Que? This is a Saint from Holy Heaven Demon Sect, one of the most powerful Sects in the Northern Wilderness. Do you think he can be compared to these Saints in the Inner Sea? He almost swept through all the Saint-level experts of all forces two months ago!"

"Hiss!!! Is he that powerful? Is the gap between Saints really that huge?"

"This can't be measured by 'gap'. It's fundamentally a difference in talent. Two months ago, when the Savage Desolate Sacred Realm opened, this guy got a great Opportunity, and I heard he awakened a terrifying ancient Bloodline, making his strength advance by leaps and bounds!"

"Given this, if Xiang Tiande makes a move against him, the outcome is probably uncertain..."

Xiang Tiande's appearance led to much speculation among the Cultivators, while Holy Son Tian Que remained calmly standing on the street, allowing the powerful Aura to envelop him without the slightest movement.

The surrounding ground, unable to withstand the immense Aura, had already cracked into numerous lines. Heavenly Que's position now only showed some cracks, but in reality, the inside had already been shattered by Xiang Tiande's Aura!

"You just entered the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm Sixth Level, and you're eager to die. I don't mind fulfilling your wish!"

Heavenly Que's voice was very calm, still showing no joy or anger, and his expression had not changed from beginning to end!

He truly did not take the opponent seriously!

Even among Cultivators of the same Heavenly Phenomenon Realm Sixth Level, the gap between them was not insignificant. This was the arrogance of a Saint from Holy Heaven Demon Sect, one of the most powerful Sects in the Northern Wilderness!

"Indeed, you are arrogant enough. Then this old man will not be polite!"

Boom!

As his voice fell, Xiang Tiande no longer held back, his face full of anger and murderous intent!

A majestic and vast Aura erupted from his body. In the Void Realm, a black Dharma Body Power figure, tens of thousands of feet tall, with a solemn expression, appeared, like an Incarnation of a Buddha!

The Dharma Body stood in the Void Realm, and a colossal hand, as if traversing endless time and space, slapped down towards Holy Son Tian Que!

This palm almost encompassed the entire Suspended City. Under the terrifying True Essence, endless runes intertwined, seemingly controlling the entire city, making it impossible for anyone to escape!

"Holy crap!! Xiang Tiande has gone mad! Is he trying to kill everyone here? Run, run!!!"

"Is this the tyranny of Qilin Mansion? To actually try to kill everyone? Isn't he afraid of incurring the wrath of Feiyun Cave? This is Feiyun Cave's territory!"

"What's a mere Suspended City? Do you think they would become enemies with Qilin Mansion for a Suspended City? Run!!!"

Many Cultivators desperately rushed out of Suspended City, their flying boats darting like shuttles, moving at extreme speed!

Fortunately, Xiang Tiande's colossal palm had not fully descended yet, and the flying boats were not trapped within it, otherwise, these people wouldn't have been able to escape!

"Sure enough, someone made a move, and a rather strong one at that. As the main body said, these top forces wouldn't care about the lives of the creatures in a city."

"However, destroying this city won't be that easy."

Shen Liu and Shen Qi stood on top of the Never Look Back Merchant Guild building, watching the giant palm descend in the distance.

"Suspended City won't be destroyed. Holy Son Tian Que is not weak; a single Xiang Tiande can't do anything to him."

The two simply watched as if it were a show.

Boom!!!

On the street, a sharp Sword Qi shot up into the sky!

The Sword Qi transformed into a towering pillar of light, soaring beyond the Nine Heavens!

The Sword Qi was chilling, carrying an invincible Profound Truth of the Sword Dao!

"Slash!!"

The entire Suspended City heard this indifferent voice, and wherever their eyes could see, there was only the dazzling Sword Qi!

Boom!!!

As the Sword Qi and the Dharma Body collided, an invisible storm of energy erupted in the sky. A dazzling light burst forth, so bright that blood flowed from the eyes of all Cultivators!

"Ah! My eyes are blind!"

"I... I can't see, my six senses are shattered, my Qi and blood are in turmoil..."

Screams echoed. Many experts who had managed to escape the city in time, even watching from afar, were severely injured!

Inside the city, it was even more tragic!

Rows of great halls collapsed, countless streets were all pulverized, mountains crumbled, the ground caved in. The once bustling Suspended City was, in just this short moment, utterly devastated by the power generated by the clash between the two!

Many Cultivators were killed. The terrifying energy generated by the collision of Dharma Body Power and Sword Qi transformed into an invisible storm, sweeping out in all directions. For thousands of miles around, it was all ruins!

Conversely, Suspended City still retained half of itself, which was already extremely rare!

Pfft!!!

"You..."

Xiang Tiande clutched his chest, his face pale, and after spitting out a mouthful of hot blood, his entire body trembled.

That single sword strike shattered his Dharma Body and shook his Divine Soul!

Xiang Tiande couldn't believe that this young Saint before him had almost taken half of his old life with one sword strike!

With his Divine Soul shattered, if he couldn't repair it in time, he wouldn't have much time left to live!

Clang!

Holy Son Tian Que sheathed his sword, looking at him indifferently, "Go back and make your final arrangements. Next time you find someone to deal with me, find someone strong enough!"

"Someone like you isn't even cannon fodder!"

One of Qilin Mansion's Elder Bamen, an expert at the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm Sixth Level, was actually dealt with so easily in Heavenly Que's eyes!

This scene made all the Cultivators watching the battle look on in horror!

What kind of strength was required to achieve this?

Had the Saint of Holy Heaven Demon Sect truly become this terrifying?

The name of Holy Heaven Demon Sect, once renowned in the Sea of Buried Demons and then disappearing for many years, now once again intimidated many Cultivators due to Holy Son Tian Que's performance!

This name had actually never disappeared; it was just avoided by many Cultivators.

Heavenly Que turned and walked away, not making another move.

And Xiang Tiande could only watch helplessly as this incredible opponent departed.

His life force was rapidly dissipating, and his shattered Divine Soul would not leave him much time!
