207: You are too weak! (Second update!)

Boom!

A terrifying pressure, far exceeding that of all the Qi Refiners present, erupted from Sun Fang and swept across the entire garden.

The aura was evil, cold, and filled with ill omens and madness.

Black Qi swirled around his body, his skin shriveled at a visible rate, yet his eyes glowed with a strange crimson light.

Qi Refining Seventh Stage!

Qi Refining Ninth Stage!

Foundation Establishment!

The Bottleneck was instantly broken through!

The Family Heads of the Jiangnan Families and the Sect Heads of the Sects present were all Qi Refiners who had cultivated diligently for decades, yet at this moment, in the face of the pressure emanating from Sun Fang, they felt as small as ants.

"This... this pressure far exceeds the Ninth Stage of Qi Refiners!" the Wu Family Head exclaimed, his face filled with disbelief.

"Impossible! He clearly was only at the Fifth Stage of Qi Refining, how could he ascend to the heavens in one step!"

"It's that Medicinal Pill! What kind of evil elixir is that!"

Everyone looked in horror at the figure shrouded in black Qi on the arena; that was no longer the Sun Fang they knew, but a complete monster.

Sun Fang felt the surging, unprecedented power within him, and seeing the horror on the faces of those elders who were usually high and mighty below the stage, he burst into a hearty laugh.

"Hahahahaha! Do you see! This is power!"

"That person really didn't lie to me! This is true power!"

His venomous gaze swept over his father, Sun Hongtu, the Sun Family Head. "Old man! Didn't you always say I was inferior to Lin Xiao? Didn't you always use him to suppress me? What about now! Now, I am hundreds of times stronger than him!"

Sun Hongtu trembled with rage, pointing at him, but unable to utter a single word.

Sun Fang's wild laughter echoed through the garden; he spread his arms as if to embrace the entire world.

"From today onwards, all the Qi Refiner Families of Jiangnan will submit to me! I, Sun Fang, will become the only King!"

"I will refine all of you into my Puppets! Hahahahaha!"

At these words, the expressions of all the Family Heads and Sect Heads present changed drastically.

"Arrogant brat! You have fallen into the Demonic Path!"

"Everyone, let's join forces to subdue this villain! Otherwise, there will be endless trouble!"

"Attack!"

In an instant, several Family Heads attacked simultaneously.

The Wu Family's " Stacked Wave Palm" (Overlapping Wave Palm), the Li Family's " Thunder Finger" (Rushing Thunder Finger), the Zhiwei Sect's " Taiyi whisk" (Taiyi Whisk), various spiritual lights intertwined into a large net, covering Sun Fang from above.

This was the peak power of the Jiangnan Qi Refiner world; a combined strike was enough to split mountains and shatter rocks.

However, Sun Fang merely snorted disdainfully.

He didn't even make any extra movements, simply allowing the black Qi on his body to surge, forming a pitch-black barrier.

Boom!

All attacks landed on the barrier, only causing a ripple, and were then completely devoured by the evil black Qi, causing no damage whatsoever.

"What?!"

"Our attacks... ineffective?"

Everyone who attacked felt a deep sense of powerlessness and fear.

Their proud ultimate techniques, in front of him, couldn't even break a single barrier.

Uncontrollable fear spread through the crowd, and some young Disciples even began to feel their legs weaken, their faces pale.

Watching everyone's despairing expressions, the smile on Sun Fang's face grew wider and more twisted.

He enjoyed this feeling of Dominating everything, controlling the life and death of others.

But soon, his smile froze.

Because he noticed that among all the horrified and terrified faces, there was one person who remained calm from beginning to end.

Lin Xiao.

He still stood quietly behind Lin Xiaotian, his eyes closed, as if everything happening around him had nothing to do with him.

That kind of calm was not a pretense, but a deep-seated indifference.

This made Sun Fang feel as if he had punched with all his might, only to hit empty air, an indescribable discomfort.

Why!

Why is everyone else afraid, but you are not!

Why do you always act so high and mighty!

Boundless anger and jealousy instantly overwhelmed the confidence Sun Fang had just built up.

"Lin Xiao!" he roared, his crimson eyes fixed on that figure, "I'm going to tear you to shreds first! I'm going to make you wail and beg for mercy at my feet!"

Hearing his name, Lin Xiao finally slowly opened his eyes.

He raised his head, calmly looked at the frenzied Sun Fang on the arena, and spoke faintly.

"Too weak."

The voice was not loud, yet it clearly reached the ears of everyone present.

The bustling garden instantly fell silent.

Sun Fang's furious rage was startled; at this moment, he clearly perceived that as Lin Xiao spoke, an indescribably sharp Qi permeated from him.

That was not spiritual power, not pressure, but something purer, more of an Origin.

Sword Qi.

Just a trace of leaked Sword Qi made his skin tingle and his Divine Soul tremble.

His proud power, in front of this Sword Qi, was as fragile as thin paper.

Flee!

Must flee!

This thought screamed frantically in his mind.

But he was horrified to find that Lin Xiao's aura had completely locked onto him; if he dared to move even an inch, he would immediately invite a thunderous strike.

He dared not move.

He didn't even dare to move a finger.

Extreme fear ultimately transformed into hysterical madness.

"Ahhh! I don't believe it! Die for me!"

Sun Fang roared, unleashing all the power he had gained from the evil elixir within him without reservation; the black Qi condensed into a giant ghostly claw, bringing with it a piercing sound of tearing air, grabbing towards Lin Xiao.

This strike was enough to level this courtyard.

Lin Xiaotian's heart below the stage almost stopped beating.

However, Lin Xiao merely casually raised his right hand, joining his index and middle fingers.

He gently pointed at the howling ghostly claw.

A barely perceptible white Sword Qi flashed from his fingertip.

Pfft.

A soft sound.

The giant black ghostly claw split in the middle, then disintegrated inch by inch, turning into black smoke and dissipating into the air.

And that white Sword Qi, its momentum undiminished, instantly pierced through Sun Fang's chest.

"Ugh..."

The black Qi on Sun Fang's body receded like a tide, and he collapsed softly to the ground, twitching weakly, as if all his bones had been removed.

A bloody hole in his chest, blood gushing out, the strange red light in his eyes had also faded, leaving only endless fear.

Instant kill.

The entire venue remained silent.

Everyone stared blankly at this scene, their minds blank.

A genuine master far exceeding the Ninth Stage of Qi Refining, a monster who could easily crush all the Family Heads, was just... crippled with a single finger?

Lin Xiao slowly walked onto the arena, step by step, towards Sun Fang who was lying on the ground.

His footsteps, in the silent garden, were like the drumbeats of the God of Death, striking everyone's hearts.

Sun Fang looked at the slowly approaching figure, and his pants instantly became wet.

He wanted to beg for mercy, but his throat was choked with blood, so he could only make "ho ho" sounds.

Lin Xiao stopped in front of him, looking down at him.

"I won't kill you."

Hearing this, a trace of relief at having escaped death flashed in Sun Fang's eyes.

But Lin Xiao's next words plunged him into an abyss deeper than death.

"Someone will come to interrogate and investigate you thoroughly."

Sun Fang was completely desperate.

He knew he was finished.
