253: Chapter 253 He only has himself to blame
As the battle between Qin Chuan and the three Half-step God Realm experts began, whether it was Lu Zhengrong and Lu Chenshuang at Yunding Villa, or the many Martial Artists watching from the mountainside to the foot of the mountain, everyone was shaken to the point of instability by the Aura erupting from their collision.
Terrifying!
It was simply too terrifying.
They were also Martial Artists, but compared to the four before them, they were completely on a different dimension. They even doubted whether everyone was truly Cultivating the same martial path.
Lu Chenshuang was horrified in her heart: "Can he really suppress three Half-step God Realm experts with his own strength alone?"
Boom!
Just at this moment, a loud noise shook the heavens and the earth.
It was Qin Chuan facing the attacks of the three Half-step God Realm experts, his True Qi flowing as if golden runes were streaming into his palms.
A golden palm print struck out across the air, like a Phoenix reborn in fire, soaring ninety thousand miles straight up.
This palm spanned a distance of a hundred zhang, instantly shattering the attacks of the three Half-step God Realm experts.
"Pfft..."
"Pfft..."
"Pfft..."
Gu Xuanming and the other two were all repelled. Their bodies felt as if they were being suppressed by a massive mountain, and they all spat out a mouthful of blood, their complexions turning several shades paler.
"A Divine Ability?"
"Is this truly a Divine Ability???"
Gu Xuanming's expression held a bit more shock.
The three of them prided themselves on being the strongest of this century, but facing Qin Chuan's Magic Treasure and Cultivation Technique... it was completely not on the same Rank.
How could they know that Qin Chuan was currently only at the False Core Realm? If he had truly entered the Golden Core Realm, they would be nothing more than ants that could be swatted to death by Qin Chuan with a casual wave of his hand.
"Could he really already be at the God Realm?"
Xiao Huohuo's face was gloomy: "This is already comparable to a Divine Ability that only those at the God Realm can unleash!"
The three of them had to simultaneously activate their Cultivation Technique and launch a joint attack just to barely manage a single strike at the God Realm level.
Yet Qin Chuan, with a flick of his finger, could unleash a Divine Ability comparable to the God Realm.
They had indeed underestimated this Emperor Qin.
Suppressing Kunlun Mountain, defeating the Two Sages of Kunlun, killing Ye Kunlun in Hong Kong, suppressing Tianshu...
"Emperor Qin!" Gu Xuanming's voice resounded through the firmament.
"I acknowledge that you are the strongest existence among those at the Half-step God Realm!"
"But if you think you have won just like this, then you are rejoicing too early!"
As he spoke, Gu Xuanming clapped his palms together, and a Magical Artifact resembling an iceberg appeared in his palms.
Gu Yinshan and Xiao Huohuo's pupils constricted simultaneously after seeing it.
"Ice Age?"
This was a Magical Artifact, the ultimate Magical Artifact on Earth, with a Rank even higher than Xiao Huohuo's previous Blazing Fire Bell.
However, this kind of Magical Artifact had extremely high requirements for storage; it had to be a user who Cultivates ice-type techniques, and it also had to be in a place of extreme cold.
On this point, Gu Xuanming did fit the criteria.
"I never thought you, Gu Xuanming, would actually have such an Opportunity!" Both of them felt a bit of jealousy and envy.
As the Ice Age appeared, an extremely biting cold Qi soared into the sky from the Magical Artifact, like a cold wave freezing ten thousand miles, rolling back through the firmament.
Wherever the cold Qi passed, even the air was frozen solid and shattered; the entire sky seemed to have been frozen by this power of extreme cold into a thousand-zhang-long ice scar...
The many Martial Artists watching all changed expressions and retreated one after another; some who were too slow were instantly frozen.
How terrifying!
But Lu Zhengrong and Lu Chenshuang, who were inside Yunding Villa, were completely unharmed.
"This Magic Treasure is actually somewhat impressive."
A hint of interest appeared on Qin Chuan's face, and then the True Qi around his body suddenly surged.
The cold Qi that was permeating over, just as it was about to completely freeze Qin Chuan, was blasted away by this erupting True Qi.
"This..." Gu Xuanming's eyes held astonishment.
One had to know that this cold Qi was enough to freeze heaven and earth, yet it had been blasted away by Qin Chuan.
Before Gu Xuanming could react, Qin Chuan threw out a punch.
Boom!
The entire Yunding Mountain began to shake.
What looked like a simple punch actually melted and shattered the thousand-zhang ice scar layer by layer, and the ten-thousand-mile ice wall shattered inch by inch like fragile glass.
And the intent of this punch had not yet ended, heading straight for Gu Xuanming.
Bang!
The Ice Age shattered...
Gu Xuanming was knocked back several dozen meters by this punch; even though he had stabilized his figure, he was still teetering.
This punch... had almost beaten the life out of Gu Xuanming.
Xiao Huohuo and Gu Yinshan, upon seeing this, became somewhat fearful.
The three of them joined forces, yet they couldn't do anything to Qin Chuan at all.
Now that Gu Xuanming was almost beaten to death, how were they to continue the battle?
"Emperor Qin..."
"We admit defeat!"
How could Xiao Huohuo dare to continue fighting? Continuing to fight would only lead to a dead end.
"We will withdraw from Yunding Villa and never come out of seclusion for the rest of our lives!"
"Yes, yes, yes... We will no longer come out of seclusion!" Gu Yinshan nodded repeatedly.
"It is already too late!" Qin Chuan's cold voice came, and a Cyan Sword Rays flashed past.
Xiao Huohuo and Gu Yinshan combined their strength to resist this sword strike.
But this was Qin Chuan's Lifebound Treasure; under full activation, how could these two possibly contend with it?
Especially since they had already lost their Battle Intent in their hearts; facing the Lifebound Treasure fully activated by Qin Chuan, they were powerless to resist.
Pshhh!
Pshhh!
Both of them were slain almost at the same time!
Gu Xuanming was not yet dead; he still had one breath left. Seeing the situation at this moment, his expression was filled with utter despair.
Having dominated the martial world for a century, he had ended up with this outcome today.
"Huu..." Gu Xuanming exhaled a breath: "This can be considered my own self-inflicted consequence."
"Teacher!!!" Venerable Zhang roared.
The Cyan Sword Rays then followed and slew Gu Xuanming!
Yunding Villa returned to silence, and the terrifying Aura from before vanished along with it.
Two months ago, Gu Xuanming, Xiao Huohuo, and Gu Yinshan, these three old monsters from a century ago, had strongly emerged from seclusion, once again dominating the entire Dragon Kingdom Martial Arts just as they had a century ago.
But two months later, all three were slain by Qin Chuan at Yunding Mountain.
A legendary generation ended right here.
The Martial Artists who had originally come from the mountainside to the foot of the mountain to join the three old monsters were now in dead silence, their faces filled with confusion.
This battle... just ended like this?
Three Senior Half-step God Realm experts, just like that, were simply slain by Qin Chuan?
Even having seen it with their own eyes, they still found it very hard to believe such an outcome.
After today, in the entire Dragon Kingdom Martial Arts, who could contend with Emperor Qin?
Inside Yunding Villa. Venerable Zhang knelt on the ground, in immense pain.
"How could it be like this?" Lu Chenshuang's complexion was deathly pale to the extreme.
She knew Qin Chuan was very strong, but she hadn't expected him to be strong to this degree.
If even three Half-step God Realm experts couldn't do anything to Qin Chuan, could it be that only a true God Realm expert could compete with Qin Chuan?
"Grandfather... could this Emperor Qin already be at the God Realm?"
Her way of addressing Qin Chuan had changed; now, she felt fear for Qin Chuan deep in her heart, so how could she still dare to call him by his name directly?
Lu Zhengrong was silent for a long time before speaking.
"Whether he is at the God Realm, I do not know, but those Families that came to join them, especially those Families that had offended Emperor Qin in the past, are likely truly finished!"
