145: Tianjishan Collapse

Bang—

An ultimate palm strike assailed her face, and Song Xiangyun instinctively raised her hand to block it.

A dull sound of palm force echoed in the Void Realm, dispersing into ripples.

At this moment, the two directly entered the most dangerous physical combat, where every Move unleashed shook the mountain, causing it to totter precariously.

The remaining Cultivators nearby, facing such terrifying power, were unable to approach the battlefield of the two, even if they wanted to help Song Xiangyun.

“Why? Why aren't you dead yet!”

After forcing Shen Lian back with a Move, Song Xiangyun became even more enraged.

“Why are you unwilling to fulfill me? Since you brought me from an ant to this level, you shouldn't change your mind. You should sacrifice yourself for me without hesitation.”

“Hahahahaha!”

Shen Lian's maniacal laughter was the reply to Song Xiangyun.

“Sacrifice myself for a bitch like you? Do you know that in this world, no one can speak such shameless words in front of me? Song Xiangyun, your doom has arrived!”

With a deep shout, Shen Lian used a Void Knee Strike, directly forcing Song Xiangyun back several steps.

“Sky Wave Reversal: Sunlit Firmament, go!”

The instant Song Xiangyun stabilized herself, she Fusion-ed the Dao Rhyme imbued in the White Jade Staff and countered with a Move.

“Void Concealment: Transforming Momentum!”

Shen Lian countered, dissolving the opponent's offensive momentum into nothingness, and immediately launched another ultimate Move.

“Void Concealment: Heavenly Sea Raging Tide.”

A thundering strike shot out. Even Song Xiangyun, mighty as she was at the Immortal Realm Third Level, staggered and retreated continuously the moment she received the Move.

“Why hasn't your spiritual power depleted yet!”

Until now, Song Xiangyun finally noticed something was wrong.

After such high-intensity confrontation, Shen Lian's Spiritual Qi showed no sign of weakening. Instead, as his offense grew more frenzied, the explosive power of his Spiritual Qi intensified.

“If you want to find out Shen Lian's trump card, it depends on whether a bitch like you can last until the moment my power and Qi are completely exhausted!”

With a fierce shout, Shen Lian suddenly raised both palms toward the sky.

Instantly, lightning flashed and thunder roared between heaven and earth, and the winds and clouds changed color.

A vortex condensed from clouds was slowly descending from the cosmos.

“Dammit!”

Unwillingness and fury completely filled every corner of Song Xiangyun's heart.

If Shen Lian didn't die, everything she had done today would become a complete joke. Only by killing him completely, regardless of the cost, could Song Xiangyun step over his corpse and ascend to a higher step.

“Emperor Extreme Three Absolutes: Ziwei Return to Origin!”

Disregarding her own limits of endurance, she once again unleashed the Emperor Extreme Cultivation Technique, intending to blast the person obstructing her into dust.

“Void Concealment: Mountains and Rivers Resonate!”

But how could Shen Lian let her have her way?

Mountains and Rivers Resonate and Ziwei Return to Origin—the two ultimate Moves clashed instantly.

BOOM—

The already riddled Tianji Mountain finally could not withstand the pressure simultaneously unleashed by the two, and collapsed instantly.

Countless Cultivators who couldn't escape in time became collateral damage, turning into dust amid horrifying cries for help.

Only those Advanced Cultivators who reacted quickly, sensing the danger early, directly achieved Ascension into the air, thus avoiding certain death.

Amidst the rolling smoke and dust, the two figures plummeting toward the ground were still fighting desperately.

Thunderous palm strikes and overflowing Dao Rhyme left everything in their wake utterly devastated.

Just as the collapsing mountain created smoke and dust that completely obscured their figures,

everything strangely fell silent again.

When the smoke and dust cleared, two peerless figures stood ten meters apart, glaring fiercely at each other.

A moment later, Shen Lian slowly raised his hand and patted the dust off his shoulder.

Immediately, a gust of strong wind swept away all the dust from his body, maintaining his peerless, arrogant demeanor.

“Song Xiangyun, if you have any other means, go ahead and use them!”

“Even this... couldn't kill you... Why... why!”

Song Xiangyun roared in furious unwillingness, her eyes becoming increasingly crazed.

“Shen Lian! You can't stop me, you absolutely cannot stop me!”

She roared and raised the White Jade Staff in her hand.

“The Northern Domain Celestial Staff, the symbol of the Mystic Sect Alliance Leader! No one is allowed to be presumptuous in front of me! And no one is allowed to stand in front of me for this long!”

“Shen Lian, you truly are still so irritating. Your final destination should be Hell!”

After the outburst of rage, Song Xiangyun suddenly let out a long howl toward the sky.

“No one can stop my hegemony. This is the will of Heaven. Who are you to stand before me?”

“Now, I will use my final Move to send you to Hell to repent!”

Shen Lian curled his lips, adopting a relaxed posture: “I'll give you a chance: one Move to decide the victor. If I lose, I will commit suicide on the spot to pave the way for your hegemony, but...”

He extended a finger and shook it gently.

“You won't get that chance again.”

“Aaaahhhh—”

Under Shen Lian's provocation, Song Xiangyun completely lost control.

“Then I'll use one Move to make you perish!”

She violently mobilized all the True Essence in her body, and immediately, Ziwei Qi wrapped around her.

However, Shen Lian suddenly adopted an unexpected posture.

He suddenly pulled out his iron fan, slowly unfolded it, and began to fan himself gently, adopting a completely mocking, spectator stance.

“You dare to humiliate me? Who permitted you to humiliate me like this?”

“I understand now. You must be powerless and intend to calmly seek death, right?”

“Hahaha, then I shall grant your wish.”

Song Xiangyun's expression grew more and more frenzied, having been provoked by Shen Lian until she completely lost her mind.

“Emperor Absolute Three Extremes: Empe— *Gasp*...”

Just as she was about to execute the strongest Move among the Emperor Absolute Three Extremes,

suddenly, she felt the Qi flow inside her body become chaotic.

Her cultivation was also rapidly dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

“This... how could this happen? What is going on?”

Noticing the abnormality within her body, Song Xiangyun immediately panicked.

She looked up, meeting Shen Lian's disdainful and contemptuous gaze, and shouted fiercely: “Was it you? Did you tamper with me somehow!”

Shen Lian put one hand behind his back and pointed into the Void Realm: “The Netherworld Cultivation Technique can certainly cause your cultivation to skyrocket, but unfortunately, all things in the world are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining. Nothing is absolute.

cultivation requires a solid Foundation and gradual improvement. Taking shortcuts will ultimately harm yourself and others. The cultivation base you absorbed was fundamentally not completely Fusion-ed with your own dantian sea.

Although the Cultivation Technique is the same, you ignored the differences between Cultivators, and forcibly used Moves that exceeded your own limits of endurance. Retribution was inevitable.”

“Aah—”

With a scream, Song Xiangyun's entire body emitted bursts of light explosions. This was caused by the Spiritual Qi backlash in her meridians.

After thirteen consecutive bursts, Song Xiangyun's vitality and spirit were completely withered; she had become a cripple.

“Pfft—”

She spat out a mouthful of blood. Watching her hands gradually begin to age and feeling her internal cultivation Foundation completely destroyed, an inexplicable terror seized her mind.

She looked up at Shen Lian, showing an extremely venomous gaze: “You knew all along, didn't you? Why didn't you warn me sooner?”

“Hahaha!”

Shen Lian couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this.

“A bitch should die in the most miserable way. Help you? Is an ant like you even worthy?”

Having finished speaking, Shen Lian quickly stepped forward and directly stomped on her head.

The current Song Xiangyun was already too weak to withstand a single blow, and Shen Lian directly ground her head into the mud and sand.

In a daze, she heard Shen Lian's demonic whisper in her ear: “Tell me, what method should I use to kill you, my bitch Junior Sister?”

Fear, at this moment, spread through Song Xiangyun's body like a poisonous weed.
