Chapter 425 Unleashing a Bloodbath
[Killed a Divine Ability Realm Late Stage, extremely gratifying, Origin + 3]
A crisp sound rang out. A trace of a smile appeared on Yan Chu's lips, and the Killing Intent in his eyes could no longer be concealed. He looked coldly at the other four members of the Five Friends of Yunling.
Silence! A silence where a falling needle could be heard!
The entire scene was shocked by the gore that had exploded on the ground.
This was not one of the servants from the City Lord's mansion who had just died, but the third member of the Five Friends of Yunling, the "Tricky Talker" Meng Lingze.
Not only was his strength not inferior to the Old Ancestors of the four great Families of Yunqi City, but he was also the strategist among the five friends.
"You are courting death!!!"
The fourth member, Hou Yu, roared in extreme rage. His fists transformed into countless fist shadows, resembling descending mountains. A terrifying, immense force descended from the sky, enveloping Yan Chu's entire body, leaving him unable to advance or retreat.
Divine Ability, Ten Thousand Jun Mountain Fall!
The terrifying weight fell entirely upon Yan Chu, but it still caused the ground within a radius of several thousand zhang of the City Lord's mansion to sink simultaneously. Many people present bore the heavy pressure, making it difficult for them to breathe.
Bang! Bang!!
One after another, several more servants of the City Lord's mansion were crushed into explosions by this heavy pressure. City Lord Yu Chongyue, his face as gloomy as water, swept the servants away to a distance.
"Brat! Die!! I am going to blast you into meat paste!"
"Heh! How dare you show off your petty skills before me!"
Yan Chu sneered disdainfully,
"Today, I will let you know how high the sky is! And how thick the earth is!"
Clang!!
The saber momentum in his palm changed. The originally icy, cold Saber Intent instantly transformed into a terrifying explosive force capable of collapsing mountains, slashing forward with immense weight.
The terrifying Saber Intent caused the ferocious smile on Hou Yu's face to freeze.
Only by facing this Saber Intent directly could one more clearly feel its terror.
The Saber Intent seemed to pierce through space, acting directly upon his Primordial Spirit and Physical Body; even his very soul seemed to develop a flaw.
Yan Chu would not give him the chance to react.
Seven Limits of Heaven-Swallowing and Earth-Destroying, Mountain Collapse!
This Divine Ability-level saber technique's force concentrated and erupted at a single point, spreading in all directions like a shockwave.
Rumble rumble rumble!!!
A terrifying sound of collapsing mountains emanated from the space several zhang ahead. A powerful shockwave, like a landslide of a collapsing mountain, rolled out in all directions.
"Retreat quickly!!"
Someone shouted loudly. The people present could no longer care about much else and all steered their escape lights to flee into the distance.
With a bang, the thousand-zhang radius around the City Lord's mansion instantly turned into dust, pulverized by an extremely condensed saber force, becoming like soft, flowing sand, breaking even the material itself.
"Spare my life!!!"
Amidst the rolling dust and smoke, the fourth member of the rampant Five Friends of Yunling let out a loud cry for mercy.
His entire body could be seen riddled with countless tiny holes ravaged by the explosive force, transparent from front to back, with the Saber Intent entangling the wounds incessantly, making it impossible for him to even recover.
"Remember to learn your lesson in your next life!"
Yan Chu's saber light broke through the dust and smoke, landing lightly on Hou Yu's forehead.
With a puff, his entire person was slashed into countless pieces of flesh by the force of the Mountain Collapse, Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering.

"Fourth Brother!!!!"
Not far away, Jiang Heng, who witnessed this scene, could no longer laugh, staring dumbfounded at the corpse parts scattered all over the ground.
Roar!!!
A furious roar erupted from his mouth, turning into rolling sound waves that cleared everything in front, causing the ground to crack and split again. The violent shockwave struck Yan Chu's body like countless pieces of metal and stone.
Clang, clang, clang, clang!!!
The sound waves sparked countless flashes of fire on his body, and a pair of eyes looked over with a wicked smile.
Having Cultivated the Supreme Daluo Heaven to the fourth level, he had awakened four Divine Abilities.
These four Divine Abilities belonged to Earth, Water, Wind, and Fire, respectively.
Among them, the Earth Divine Ability was named Ten Thousand Mountains Suppressing Body.
As long as his feet stood on the ground, he could draw upon the power of the earth and the mountains from all directions to cover his body, allowing his Physical Body to withstand Magic Treasures and Divine Abilities, remaining as immovable as a mountain, difficult for external forces to invade.
Even among Divine Abilities, there were distinctions of strength and weakness.
Yan Chu, relying on Ten Thousand Mountains Suppressing Body, surpassed all the hard-body Divine Arts he had previously Cultivated.
"Ah???"
Jiang Heng's pupils shrank fiercely when he saw this scene.
He was at the Peak of the Divine Ability Realm, yet this Cloud Tiger Roar Killing Divine Ability had landed on the opponent's Middle Stage, and he was completely unharmed?
"Second Brother! Fifth Brother! Attack together and kill him!!!"
Jiang Heng let out another long howl. Countless fine hairs grew all over his body, and his face squirmed and changed, instantly transforming into a large, white-foreheaded tiger with hanging eyes.
Roar!!!
The tiger roared in the mountain forest, and its long, steel-whip-like tail whipped the air, making it crackle.
"What? Jiang Heng is actually of the Yao Race?!?"
The onlookers were terrified at the sight, and even the four, including Yu Chongyue, were full of surprise.
"What a Tiger Yao! Daring to run into the territory of my Human Race and act so tyrannically!!"
The crowd was immediately indignant, pointing at Jiang Heng and the other three.
"A bunch of ants, I merely possess the Bloodline of the Yao Race!"
"Wait until I deal with this brat, then I will settle accounts with you all!!"
Hearing the surrounding discussions, the voice from Jiang Heng's huge tiger mouth sounded like muffled thunder, causing those who had just spoken to turn pale, and they dared not say another word.
As his voice fell, Jiang Heng did not hesitate any longer and lunged down fiercely.
Within a radius of several miles, it was as if they had fallen into a silent mountain forest, with a fierce tiger leaping through the forest, a fishy wind blowing in their faces.
On the other side, the second of the five, the "Greedy Traveler" Jin Yi, took off the gold necklace from his neck and threw it into the air. The necklace grew against the wind and fell straight down above Yan Chu.
At the same time, the rings and bracelets he wore on his hands all flew off, falling towards Yan Chu's four limbs, intending to bind him.
Then he took out a bronze coin-sword and said with a smile:
"I am gifting this coin-sword to you! To buy your life!"
As his voice fell, a bloody light bloomed on the blade of the coin-sword, and with a swish, it disappeared from his hand.
The fifth of the five, the "Ungrateful Fellow" Jiang Xin, prowled outside the battle circle, his eyes flickering, intending to find an opportunity to attack.
All of this dazzled the crowd, but in reality, it all happened in an instant.
Roar!!!
The fishy wind howled violently, and the entire Yunqi City was filled with flying sand and rocks. Everyone was unable to see a zhang in front of them, nor did they know what was happening ahead.
They could only hear a heaven-shaking tiger roar, which made people's hands and feet go numb, unable to control themselves.
Light flowed in Yan Chu's eyes; his Wisdom Dharma Eye observed everything.
It is said that clouds follow the Dragon, and wind follows the Tiger.
After Jiang Heng transformed into a fierce tiger, he displayed another Divine Ability related to wind and sand, which could confuse people's vision and Primordial Spirit.
And he hid behind the black wind, lunging fiercely at Yan Chu's back from behind.
A huge tiger claw had already reached out toward Yan Chu, intending to dig out his heart to avenge his two brothers.
Slap!
Suddenly, as if Yan Chu had grown eyes on the back of his head, he backhanded and grabbed the tiger claw in his hand. His five fingers, like steel needles, embedded tightly into the fur and flesh, and blood flowed out instantly.
"What?!?"
The naked eye could not see Jiang Heng's full appearance, only a pair of scarlet tiger eyes behind the black wind, revealing disbelief.
"Get off me!!"
Jiang Heng roared again, both angry and in pain, wanting to break free from Yan Chu's hand.
With a swish, the golden necklace from above fell down just right.
...
...
"Second Brother! Help me!!!"
Jiang Heng could not break free and hurriedly called for help upon seeing this.
Swish swish swish!
The six or seven locking Magic Treasures that were hiding in the black wind immediately accelerated, falling onto Yan Chu all at once.
The necklace trapped his head, and various rings and bracelets were fitted onto his four limbs, shining with golden light.
Jiang Heng and the nearby Jin Yi revealed expressions of great joy.
At the same moment, that small coin-sword also appeared from the black wind, its blade becoming transparent and invisible, with only the blood-colored saber light flickering faintly.
It gently slashed across Yan Chu's neck, and blood sprayed.
"Hmph!"
An anthropomorphic sneer appeared on Jiang Heng's tiger face. Another huge tiger claw reached out from the black wind, using the Black Tiger Digs Heart move, digging into Yan Chu's chest and pulling out a bright red, beating heart.
"Hahahaha!!!"
He couldn't help but laugh loudly, feeling extremely gratified.
He even forgot the pain in his tiger claw.
Outside, the local cultivators of Yunqi City, including Yu Chongyue, were all hiding high in the sky, watching the black wind below cover the entire city.
Hearing Jiang Heng's familiar wild laughter again, their expressions couldn't help but change slightly.
"What is going on? Could it be that Fellow Daoist Kang he..."
The fire that had originally ignited in everyone's hearts now slowly extinguished again.
Originally, seeing Yan Chu show off his Divine Might, they thought he could help them eliminate all these Five Harms of Yunling.
Now it seemed that he still could not escape Jiang Heng's clutches.
Just at this moment, a scream suddenly came from the black wind, attracting everyone's attention once again.
"What? How is this possible?!?"
In the dense black wind, Jiang Heng looked at the unharmed Yan Chu before him in utter astonishment, his tiger eyes full of horror.
Only then did he discover that his own tiger claw had been grabbed again at some point, with five fingers deeply embedded into the flesh and piercing through the bone, bringing a heart-piercing pain.
In his excitement just now, he hadn't noticed it at all.
Looking ahead again, Yan Chu, who should have been trapped by the Magic Treasures, had dissipated like foam.
And the bright red, beating heart in his hand also disappeared with a puff.
Jin Yi on the other side of the black fog was clearly also shocked by this scene.
He had clearly felt that the Magic Treasure had trapped someone just now, and that coin-sword had also broken through Yan Chu's flesh; how could it have turned out like this now?
"Damn it!! I will fight you to the death!!"
Jiang Heng was so angry he jumped like thunder. The other tiger claw swung down fiercely, carrying a fierce wind, and the black wind surged.
Swish!
That injured tiger claw suddenly broke free triumphantly, smashing Yan Chu into pieces with one claw. At the same time, dozens of Yan Chus appeared all around, each one vivid and lifelike; Divine Sense could simply not distinguish the real from the fake.
Wind Divine Ability, Gale Phantoms.
His speed was too fast. Each remaining phantom carried a trace of his aura, which gave Jiang Heng and the other the illusion that Yan Chu had been trapped.
In another part of the black wind, the second of the five, Jin Yi, saw this scene and finally couldn't help but feel the intention to retreat.
Just as he wanted to open his mouth to persuade Jiang Heng, a palm was lightly pressed onto his crown.
Whoosh!
Pure Yang Fire poured in from the crown, instantly burning his Sea of Consciousness, Primordial Spirit, and Physical Body, turning him into a withered charred corpse.
[Killed a Divine Ability Realm Late Stage Martial Artist, extremely gratifying, Origin + 3]
This black wind was cast by Jiang Heng, specifically to confuse the enemy's Divine Sense and vision, and he knew all the movements within the wind like the back of his hand.
But Yan Chu was an anomaly.
He had a deeper understanding of the wind than he, who possessed the Bloodline of the Yao Tiger, and his application of the wind was even more masterful.
This black wind seemed to have become the opponent's home field.
"Second Brother!!!"
Feeling Jin Yi's death, he could only let out a mournful cry, unable to do anything in time.
Because the dozens of afterimages surrounding him had already re-aggregated into one.
Yan Chu's expression was incomparably indifferent.
This expression was incomparably familiar to Jiang Heng; it was the expression he had once faced others with, just like looking at ants.
He didn't expect to see this look from an enemy now.
His whole body couldn't help but tremble, the Evil Qi around him dissipated, and he finally felt fear.
"Fellow Daoist Kang, wait! We can talk..."
Swish!
As soon as his voice fell, he felt his vision blur. When he opened his eyes again, Yan Chu had already returned to his original spot.
However, he was holding a bright red heart in his hand at this moment, which was still beating.
"That seems to be..."
Jiang Heng's face was ugly; that seemed to be his own heart.
"Whew..."
He breathed a sigh of relief. At his current Realm, he could survive without a heart.
Not right!
Why does my chest hurt so much?
He looked down and saw that at his chest, which was transparent from front to back, a pure white flame had replaced his original heart.
An indescribable burning pain swept through his entire body.
"You... Whoosh!!"
Like a torch, before Jiang Heng could finish speaking, the flame instantly exploded, burning him until he was reduced to ashes.
In front of the Pure Yang Fire, all living beings are equal.
[Killed a Divine Ability Realm Peak Martial Artist, extremely gratifying, Origin + 3.5]
With Jiang Heng's death, the black wind shrouding the city dissipated, and the scene in the field was reflected in everyone's eyes.
The first and second of the Five Friends of Yunling were also dead, turned into two piles of charred remains, while Yan Chu stood there perfectly fine, his aura not even slightly disordered.
The fifth brother, Jiang Xin, who had been watching, smoothly knelt on the ground in one second,
"I beg Senior Kang to spare my life!! This one has absolutely no intention of disrespect! I am willing to offer all the treasures collected by the five of us to Senior!!"
After finishing, Jiang Xin raised his head, looking straight into Yan Chu's gaze, which had no change in emotion.
His scalp immediately went numb.
Yan Chu had absolutely no intention of leaving any of them a way to live.
Damn!
Cursing inwardly, Jiang Xin turned into a rainbow light with a boom and instantly went far away, flying hundreds of miles in a single breath.
Everyone present tensed their minds and looked out.
Then they saw that Yan Chu had appeared in front of Jiang Xin, not knowing when. He was only focused on fleeing for his life and crashed straight into Yan Chu's fist.
Boom crack crack!!!
The frost-condensed fist light pierced through Jiang Xin's chest, and the astonishing chill gathered into a river several miles long, appearing in the sky.
Jiang Xin, blasted into pieces by the punch, exploded into countless blood flowers, dotting this river of frost, both cruel and beautiful.
[Killed a Divine Ability Realm Late Stage Martial Artist, extremely gratifying, Origin + 3]
Yan Chu nodded with satisfaction. These five people had provided him with quite a lot of Origin, and now the Supreme Daluo Heaven could advance to the fifth level.
His own cultivation could take another big step forward.
Returning lightly to Yunqi City, no one had left at this time. Everyone was looking at Yan Chu with both respect and fear, various emotions intertwined in their eyes.
"Kang... Senior..."
After hesitating for a long time, City Lord Yu Chongyue still braced himself to step forward and respectfully called him Senior.
In the cultivation world, strength is respected.
Although Yan Chu's cultivation was lower than his, this terrifying strength that suppressed everything was definitely worthy of the title of Senior.
"Thank you, Senior, for eliminating the great harms for my Yunqi City! All of us in Yunqi City are endlessly grateful!"
