148: All blown to death!

The Yin God in mid-air grinned at the five individuals.

“You’ve been in this barren land for too long and haven’t seen such a good treasure, have you? Today, I’ll treat you to a good meal!”

“Great Sun Burning Heaven Palm!”

As soon as the words fell, the ancient god’s phantom behind the Yin God pushed the artificial sun in its palm towards the Blood Bat King and the other four.

The five of them were instantly horrified, their hair standing on end!

The Six-Winged Blood Bat felt that its entire demon body was unwell; the blood qi within its body began to evaporate, and its dark body started to emit black smoke.

It naturally disliked intense sunlight and brightness, and now that Li Shengyuan’s sun was so close, even before contact, it felt as if it was already dying…

It could only shriek miserably: “It hurts so much… Retreat quickly, retreat back to the underground world! What in the world did this guy create?!”

Its speed was also the fastest; it turned and flew towards the entrance of the underground world, about to breathe a sigh of relief, but it didn’t know when Li Shengyuan’s physical body had already arrived at the entrance.

A cold smile appeared on Li Shengyuan’s face as he assumed a sword-drawing stance.

“Go back, or choose one!”

Upon seeing this, the five beasts’ expressions turned incredibly ugly, while the Six-Winged Blood Bat unhesitatingly charged towards Li Shengyuan’s Third-Grade Undying Golden Body.

It roared ferociously: “Get lost! Don’t block this King’s path!”

It would rather be slashed by Li Shengyuan than be burned by the sun behind it.

And in that instant, the Yin God’s artificial sun had already reached the heads of the other five, who could only use all their abilities to block it, but to their horror, they found that their strength was actually suppressed!

“You wish to kill us, Li Shengyuan? You’re dreaming!”

The four individuals roared in anger, and the next moment they were engulfed by the sun…

At this moment, the Six-Winged Blood Bat also arrived before Li Shengyuan, brandishing its sharp claws and striking at Li Shengyuan.

Li Shengyuan looked at the Six-Winged Blood Bat, which was close at hand, and unhesitatingly drew the Chop Abyss from his hand!

The blade light flashed and passed, and terror replaced the fear in the Six-Winged Blood Bat’s eyes.

“Ah…”

After letting out a tragic scream, its body froze in mid-air; a thin bloodline tore its body apart, while the blade light passed through the Six-Winged Blood Bat, its remaining power undiminished as it collided with the descending sun.

“Vulnerable…”

As Li Shengyuan’s disdainful voice faded, the massive artificial sun finally collided with the ground.

The ground, frozen solid by ice and snow, could not withstand the pressure and instantly caved in, cracking in all directions.

The Insectoids that hadn’t managed to escape far were instantly vaporized!

This time, the Great Sun Burning Heaven Palm, with the blessing of the Congenital Great Sun Diagram, was much more powerful than the one at Shanhai Pass!

At this moment, Li Shengyuan’s physical body flashed and arrived beside the Yin God, and the two merged into one.

Li Shengyuan also let out a long breath. Even if these few weren’t completely dead, they were close enough. The Second-Grade Great Demon hidden here should appear now, right?

With a calm expression, Li Shengyuan did not relax his vigilance at all; instead, he observed the surrounding changes more cautiously through the Congenital Great Sun Diagram.

But after a long time, until the dust and smoke dispersed, revealing the ground destroyed into a large deep pit, the so-called Second-Grade expert still did not appear…

Swallowing two pills to restore the spiritual energy in his body, Li Shengyuan looked down and could only see two mutilated corpses lying on the ground.

They were precisely the Demon King and the Barbarian King; it was normal for the Demon Barbarians, whose physical bodies were tough, not to be completely vaporized.

As for the two Third-Grade Demon Heads of the Demonic Cult and the relatively weaker Six-Winged Blood Bat, they were probably scattered everywhere by now.

However, the two mutilated corpses were still severely damaged; their hearts were gone, half their heads were blown off, and three of their four limbs were missing. They were as dead as could be, looking quite terrifying.

To have remains left after the explosion of the Great Sun Burning Heaven Palm was already quite something…

Even if they tried to escape by their souls leaving their bodies, they would be instantly annihilated, their souls scattered.

Yue Xiyan in the distance stood frozen in place, staring blankly at Li Shengyuan. A single divine ability could instantly obliterate five great Third-Grade experts!

What kind of strength was this?

Yue Xiyan took a deep breath; she was also deeply shocked. This Li Shengyuan seemed to have no upper limit…

But she dared not act rashly and did not immediately sneak into the underground world to search for the Insectoid Queen.

Although Li Shengyuan seemed to have dealt with all the opponents now, it was unknown if there were any hidden experts.

For example, the Second-Grade Great Demon they had speculated about had never appeared…

Li Shengyuan also vigilantly surveyed his surroundings, but he still saw no other figures, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart.

Could it be that there really was no Second-Grade Demon Head guarding here?

That would be too arrogant, wouldn’t it?

No!

Li Shengyuan’s expression tightened, and the next moment he felt a spatial fluctuation coming from the large pit underground. Two bodies, with only a faint breath remaining, were thrown onto the ground out of thin air.

They were precisely those two Third-Grade Demon Heads!

Immediately after, Li Shengyuan’s expression gradually became solemn.

There’s still a master!

Li Shengyuan didn’t have to wait too long; in the large pit, the spatial fluctuations near the two bodies became increasingly intense.

Until finally, the space shattered into a rift, and the spatial rift gradually transformed into a spatial passage…

Tap… tap…

Calm yet clear footsteps echoed from within. Each step seemed to tread upon Li Shengyuan’s heart, making his expression increasingly grim.

Staring at the spatial passage, soon, a foot stepped out from within.

Finally, a refined and gentle-looking man in a long robe appeared before Li Shengyuan. He even held a book in his hand.

This person had no cultivation fluctuations on him, showing no hint of majesty, but Li Shengyuan’s expression as he looked at him was extremely solemn!

Second-Grade Tribulation Transcending Realm!

“Alas~~~”

The man sighed deeply, “I just want to quietly read a book for a while, why can’t you be a little more peaceful…”

Looking at the two Third-Grade Demon Heads groaning in pain beside him, a hint of indifference appeared on the man’s face.

“Lord Demon Venerable… save… save me…”

The long-robed man, referred to as Demon Venerable, shook his head and sighed, saying blandly:

“Little Five, oh Little Five, what use is there for you to live in this world? Five of you fought one and were counter-killed, and you almost caused the Beast Taming Elder to be severely injured and die…”

“Pulling you out just now was already out of consideration for the Cult Master; you should take care of yourselves!”

Then he looked up at Li Shengyuan and chuckled:

“So you are Li Shengyuan. You certainly look like a talented person, but your killing intent is a bit heavy…”

“Actually, I’ve read your poems… ‘Long winds will break the waves someday, and I will set my cloud-white sail to cross the vast sea’—it’s a good poem, truly a masterpiece for all ages!”

After speaking, he nodded repeatedly, excitedly patting the book in his hand, his face full of admiration.

Li Shengyuan watched the Demon Venerable, who was full of scholarly aura, with a grim expression, unsure what he was up to for a moment.

The Demon Venerable then smiled slightly at him, “Perhaps you don’t know, but I’m actually a fan of your poetry. I just didn’t expect our first meeting to be in this manner. I’ve read all the poems of yours that have been circulated, but unfortunately, some of them are incomplete!”

The next instant, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Li Shengyuan excitedly, saying:

“How about this: you complete all the poems for me, and I’ll spare your life today and let you leave.”

“What do you think?!”
