650: Chapter 648 Opening the Altar to Offer Sacrifice to Heaven

"How dare you!"

Seeing the two mountain guards die right before his eyes, Hong Yu was furious. He spun around, pointed at Chu Xuan, and roared angrily.

His life force surged throughout his body, emitting rolling crimson flames that made the surrounding rocks tremble.

"It is you who are bold!" Chu Xuan remained completely unaffected. As his True Yuan surged, a protective gale formed around his body, blowing the surrounding flames away.

Chu Xuan turned his head abruptly, looked up at Hong Yu, and said in a heavy tone: "These two appeared to only be mocking me, but in reality, they were spies from Great Cang, infiltrating our Heavenly Dao Alliance with malicious intent. Do they not deserve to die?"

Hong Yu's expression darkened, and he said coldly: "You say they are spies, but do you have any evidence?"

"I am the Young Alliance Leader of the Heavenly Dao Alliance; my word is the evidence! You are shielding them so blatantly—could it be that you also harbor ulterior motives?"

Chu Xuan's voice was calm, but he made no effort to hide his killing intent, as if he would strike immediately if Hong Yu dared to say one more word of nonsense.

The crimson flames around Hong Yu became thicker, but his brow furrowed deeply.

He discovered that he actually couldn't see through the "Zhou Fan" in front of him, yet he vaguely sensed an aura of the Tianyuan Realm.

Could he really have reached the Tianyuan Realm? Impossible, absolutely impossible!

But immediately after, Hong Yu discovered that the crimson flames he instinctively emitted were completely blocked and unable to penetrate at all, which made him feel vigilant.

One must know that even those who had stepped into the Diyuan Realm could not easily resist his crimson flames, let alone ignore them as Chu Xuan did.

Could he have some special treasure?

A trace of wariness flashed in Hong Yu's eyes, and he snorted coldly: "I know what you want to do by coming back, but since you are courting death, suit yourself. However..."

Hong Yu sneered and said: "You lost your token long ago, and you've also killed the mountain guards. So, how do you expect to enter the main altar? I'll say this in advance: I will not open the gates for you."

By upgrading the Teleportation skill, Chu Xuan had gained a certain level of insight and perception regarding space, and in an instant, he detected a weak point.

Without hesitation, almost as soon as Hong Yu finished speaking, Chu Xuan ignored him completely, took a step forward, used Teleportation, and his figure vanished in an instant.

Seeing this, Hong Yu was slightly stunned, then clenched his fists tightly.

This time, he deeply felt Chu Xuan's disregard and disdain for him, as if, from the bottom of his heart, he had never thought much of him.

Hong Yu felt that his dignity had been severely trampled upon.

A flash of killing intent couldn't help but cross Hong Yu's eyes: "I want to see just how arrogant you can be! This time, you will surely die at the hands of Young Alliance Leader Qi Yun..."

Just as Hong Yu was sneering, he saw Chu Xuan return suddenly. He reached out, gathered his True Yuan, and formed a large cyan hand that grabbed down fiercely.

"I just realized that there is no one on duty here anymore. Since that's the case, I don't need to act anymore; I'll just finish you off and be done with it."

While speaking, Hong Yu had already been firmly grasped by the True Yuan hand, and his bones cracked and shattered inch by inch.

Before his shrieking scream could even escape, Chu Xuan had already formed his fingers into a sword, with the Fire of Nirvana burning on them. With what appeared to be a light, nonchalant tap, it was like a red-hot branding iron plunging into snow, piercing directly into Hong Yu's glabella without any resistance.

The Fire of Nirvana poured madly into his glabella.

In the next instant, the Fire of Nirvana solidified, and countless spikes burst out, instantly piercing through Hong Yu's head, making it look like a sea urchin.

Then, the flames swept over and burned him to ashes.

[Your spirituality value + 12850, your rule fragment + 2]

"That's more like it!" A smile curled up on the corner of Chu Xuan's mouth.

The two mountain guards he had just killed both had a life level of Rank 9, but combined, they only provided a little over 1000 spirituality value.

Half of that returned to the Cangyun World, and of the remaining half, Chu Xuan only received 60% of the gains.

Regarding this, Chu Xuan had to admit that although this path of purification had some hidden dangers, the Fire of Nirvana was simply too useful.

He collected the remaining red armor that had fallen to the ground, as well as a jade pendant. After taking a casual look and finding nothing of value, Chu Xuan took a step forward, used the Teleportation skill again, pierced through the spatial barrier, and re-entered the Secret Realm.

Inside the Secret Realm. It was still surrounded by mountains, similar to the terrain outside, but the difference was that among these mountains, there were countless buildings and structures. A city had been built around the mountains.

"My Dominator, your decisive methods just now truly filled me with admiration. For such idiots who dared to offend you, you should just kill them directly," the Phantom Demon said, his tone filled with flattery.

Chu Xuan ignored the Phantom Demon and strode towards the top of the main peak.

On the Mountain Road, colorful flags fluttered all the way to the peak, where a wide and open area had already been set up with an altar.

Inside this Secret Realm, although the sky had just brightened, it was already bustling with noise and excitement.

Because today, Young Alliance Leader Qi Yun was preparing to open the altar and sacrifice to Heaven at dawn, replacing the still-injured Sovereign Mingzhen to ascend to the position of Heavenly Dao Alliance Leader.

At this main altar site, all the high-ranking members of the Heavenly Dao Alliance had already gathered, as well as most of the powerful Martial Artists from various branches of the alliance.

And as Chu Xuan suddenly appeared in the image of Zhou Fan, it immediately attracted countless gazes.

No one could have imagined that the "Young Alliance Leader" who had been defeated in the past would actually return today. Could it be that he came to watch the ceremony?

People cast their gazes over one after another.

"Why is Zhou Fan back?" "Didn't he already flee and leave the Heavenly Dao Alliance? Why would he return today?" "He's here with ill intent..." "Look at that bitter, hateful expression; could he still want to compete with Young Alliance Leader Qi Yun again?" "Are you kidding? Young Alliance Leader Qi Yun only needs one finger to crush him to death. What qualifications does he have to compete with Young Alliance Leader Qi Yun?" "That's right! Young Alliance Leader Qi Yun is the one everyone wants. Last time, he already let Zhou Fan off with his life. If Zhou Fan still overestimates his own abilities and steps up to challenge him, then he is truly courting death..."

Under the discussions and pointing of many people, Chu Xuan's expression remained unchanged as he walked step by step along the Mountain Road towards the top.

"Young Alliance Leader Qi Yun, Zhou Fan is here!" Standing beside Young Alliance Leader Qi Yun, having arrived a step earlier, Tian Yong immediately said respectfully with a smile: "I didn't lie to you, did I? I really brought Zhou Fan back alive. I just don't know why he would dare to return, but regardless, I have already completed the mission..."

Speaking of this, Tian Yong chuckled: "Young Alliance Leader Qi Yun, about the Blazing Sun Method you promised to bestow upon me, what do you think?"
