23: With a single punch, the Old Ancestor of the Azure Wolf was stunned!

The young wolf demon died without ever realizing who killed him, or when he appeared... Shen Nian stood above the wolf demon, with lightning flowing under his feet, holding a large wolf head in his hand, his expression calm.

This scene instantly attracted the attention of all the wolf demons, and for a moment, they all looked bewildered.

Even Xia Youyue was stunned.

When did he get there?

The next second, the White-robed Figure skillfully extracted the wolf demon's demon core and placed it into his Storage Pouch, then casually tossed the wolf head aside like trash, before looking at the nine great demons with eyes that seemed to be sizing up prey.

Upon seeing this, the nine great Golden Core Stage demons immediately flew into a rage, and at the same time, their hearts were completely panicked.

The one who died was a Prodigy of their race, deeply favored by the Old Ancestor!

This time, when they invaded Yunzhou, the Old Ancestor gave him almost all the authority, yet he was gone right after leaving home. If they couldn't provide an explanation, they would be finished when the Old Ancestor arrived to demand accountability.

"Human Race, how arrogant!"

"Die!"

Boom!

The aura of the nine great Golden Core wolf demons permeated the entire forest, and the terrifying fluctuations created layers of Qi waves around them. Although they were incredibly furious, they were not foolish. The opponent's methods were too strange. Although he was only a Golden Core Stage Cultivator, it was not difficult for them to guess.

This white-robed youth must be another Human Race Prodigy!

His strength must not be compared to ordinary Golden Core Cultivators, and they didn't really want to fight to the death to kill him. They just wanted to buy a little more time. Once the Old Ancestor arrived, no matter how terrifying he was, he wouldn't be able to stir up any waves.

But they had all underestimated this young Human Race... By the time fear appeared in the pupils of these nine great wolf demons, their bodies were already separated... Crack!

Thunder roared, and a brilliant bolt of lightning illuminated the dark night, like a Thunder Dragon baring its fangs and claws.

After the lightning dissipated, the bodies of the nine great Golden Core demons went limp and all fell from the sky. Only one breath of time had passed.

"So fast...!" Xia Youyue, who was still killing wolf demons below, was shocked. This time, she barely managed to catch a glimpse of Shen Nian making his move, but with her strength, she only saw a wisp of a lightning shadow.

Wait!

This movement Divine Ability... Nine Steps of Thunder Movement????

Xia Youyue's pupils suddenly contracted. In the past, she had also wanted to practice this movement Divine Ability, but after several months, she still couldn't get started. Even she, who was known as the number one in Great Xia in terms of Comprehension Ability, chose to temporarily give up.

But now, someone her age was performing it... Nine Steps of Thunder Movement was one of the most precious Divine Abilities of the Great Xia Demon Suppression Division. Only one person in Yunzhou had accumulated enough merit to exchange for it, and that was Commander Chen Gang... It wasn't hard for her to imagine that Shen Nian took this Divine Ability after killing Chen Gang. She hadn't mentioned it before, as she still had that much magnanimity.

But!

How did he Cultivate it?

This was a Nascent Soul-level movement Divine Ability, and he was only at the Golden Core Stage???

Moreover... this was clearly at the Perfection level!!

This... could it be that he was already Cultivating Nine Steps of Thunder Movement before?

If that were truly the case, how could he have devoted himself entirely to Body Refining?

Xia Youyue was shocked by a peer for the first time. She couldn't imagine how, at such a young age, he had trained his Physique to the level of a Hunyuan Grandmaster, and also managed to Cultivate a Nascent Soul Divine Ability to Perfection!

While she was still in shock, the wolf demon pack stopped their encirclement of her and all looked at the White-robed Figure in the sky, revealing expressions of fear. The naturally fierce wolf demons actually began to retreat... Suddenly!

A suffocating sensation permeated the air.

Xia Youyue's gaze was fixed coldly on the slowly approaching Old Wolf. The emerald green jade bottle in her Dantian began to emit purple Qi, and her aura started to change from hurried to calm. She needed to fully concentrate on unleashing this killing move.

Anything below Nascent Soul can be slain!

However, this killing move had only one drawback: it required too much time to prepare and she couldn't be Divided Soul.

"Shen Nian, he is Old Ancestor Cang Lang. You hold him off, and I'll deliver the fatal blow!" Xia Youyue quickly sent a voice transmission.

Although the situation was somewhat sudden, fortunately, only one appeared. They had to deal with him quickly. If the Tiger Lord and Ox Lord appeared, bringing their entire demon horde, then they would surely die!

However, Xia Youyue felt more at ease with Shen Nian being able to hold him off. With just the Nine Steps of Thunder Movement, he could remain undefeated.

Mid-air.

Upon hearing Xia Youyue's voice transmission, Shen Nian showed no panic. Instead, after collecting the demon cores of the nine great Golden Core wolf demons one by one, he turned to look.

"…" Xia Youyue was instantly speechless. Are you that eager?

Old Ancestor Cang Lang is still watching, you know!

The hunched figure of Old Ancestor Cang Lang walked slowly, looked up at the white-robed youth in the sky, and after a moment of silence, said, "Hunyuan Grandmaster?"

"Such a young Grandmaster, truly unheard of. Are you the Disciple of the Third Valley Master of Sunset Valley, the one known as Indestructible Vajra?"

Whoosh!

A lightning shadow flashed past.

Old Ancestor Cang Lang's expression changed, and a massive fist reflected in his eyes. His body instantly swelled, his gray robe was torn apart, and four demon Talismans appeared on his limbs.

Boom!

A punch missed, striking the forest behind Old Ancestor Cang Lang, rumbling. A huge channel was blasted through the forest, extending for over a thousand meters.

It was imaginable how terrifying this punch would be if it landed on a Physical Body.

"This young Grandmaster seems quite impolite..." Old Ancestor Cang Lang's massive wolf eyes contained surging anger. His true form, over ten zhang tall, appeared, his entire body covered in explosive muscles. His black fur was as hard as steel needles. If not for the white wolf whiskers at the corners of his mouth and eyes, no one would have guessed that this was a wolf demon whose Lifespan was nearing its end.

Xia Youyue, seeing the opponent use demon Talismans from afar, her expression became a little more serious.

Old Ancestor Cang Lang actually had connections with the Heavenly Demon Cave!!

Generally speaking, Yao Race who liked to slaughter common people were rogue demons or tribes, with no affiliated forces. Their strengths varied, with the strongest being at the Peak Golden Core stage, which was why the Demon Suppression Division could hold them back.

But once the Heavenly Demon Cave was involved, it was a different story.

The Yao Race within it, like Human Race Cultivators, all belonged to forces, and among them were the Qingqiu Fox Clan who could refine Magic Treasures, Talismans, and Medicinal Pills.

Their Physical Body and Bloodline were already far stronger than Human Race Cultivators in the same Realm, and they had even more precious resources. Sometimes, Xia Youyue wondered if this world was created for the Yao Race!

And the Human Race were their prey... Shen Nian's expression was like this, and the killing intent in his heart was unstoppable as he looked at Old Ancestor Cang Lang. As long as he killed him, his Qi would be renewed, and his destiny could be changed.

Old Ancestor Cang Lang saw the look in his eyes and said coldly, "Do you really think that by becoming a Grandmaster and mastering movement Divine Abilities, you can be invincible?"

The next instant.

Nine lightning shadows appeared, accompanied by a disdainful voice: "Too much nonsense."

Old Ancestor Cang Lang immediately bared his fangs, erupting with crimson demonic power. Within it were mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and those with lower Realms would have their minds confused by this aura.

In an instant, Old Ancestor Cang Lang moved, his speed equally fast, directly confronting Shen Nian.

Neither of them used any Divine Abilities; they were choosing to clash head-on with their Physical Bodies!

Old Ancestor Cang Lang knew the opponent was a Body Cultivator, but Body Cultivators also came in different grades. He didn't believe that the opponent, so young, could have refined his Physical Body to be stronger than his Nascent Soul true form.

Seeing this, Xia Youyue gritted her teeth.

"Damn it!"

"I only asked you to hold him off. This Cang Lang's Physical Body has been almost completely refined, otherwise, how could he be a half-step Nascent Soul!"

"Even a Hunyuan Grandmaster would have to be careful when clashing with him head-on, and you!!"

However, just as she was about to make a move, a Foundation Establishment wolf demon among the wolf pack next to her suddenly howled, and the wolf pack immediately charged at her.

However, the next second.

A loud bang erupted in the sky.

Fist against fist, a star-like divine Pattern appeared on the back of Shen Nian's hand. He unleashed the power of his Indestructible Chaos Body without reservation, with only one thought: quickly kill this Old Wolf.

Bang!

Blood immediately spurted out, turning into a rain of blood, and a massive wolf's hoof shattered... Old Ancestor Cang Lang looked at his empty right arm in disbelief, momentarily distracted.
