Chapter 522: Chapter 520: Admitting Defeat

Facing the close-range attack from a high-tier Shenxiao Realm powerhouse, Xu Yang didn’t move an inch.

He couldn’t escape either.

Staring at Ren Changtian, Xu Yang wore a mocking look.

"Shit, I fell for it."

Ren Changtian’s face changed dramatically; without hesitation, he halted his attack and retreated in a frenzy.

Swoosh swoosh!!

From within the Cyan Jade Yin Yang Pendant, two arcs of rainbow light burst out, instantly catching up to Ren Changtian.

"Ren Changtian, you dared kill the Shi Family’s great meritorious subject. Your crime is unpardonable; death is too light for you!"

Two Shi Family powerhouses, one high-tier Shenxiao Realm, one Shenxiao Perfection Realm, attacked together.

Strong cultivators nearby saw this and came rushing like lightning to rescue Ren Changtian.

But the Shenxiao Perfection Realm stamped down with one foot, sending waves surging; array-like spirit patterns spread rapidly from underfoot, instantly coalescing into a giant a hundred meters tall, blocking them.

"No!"

Ren Changtian screamed miserably, struggling desperately.

But facing two mighty experts joining hands, the outcome was already sealed!

"Bet you didn’t expect to die this fast when you attacked, did you?" Xu Yang sneered coldly.

Boom!

Ren Changtian’s body exploded. In his final moment, he glared hard at Xu Yang, endless hatred lingering in his eyes.

A dignified high-tier Shenxiao Realm, dying such a suffocating death!

Ren Changtian’s fall made the Infinite Sea’s many experts even more furious, even more uneasy!

The War King Family has simply gone completely insane.

Spirit Stone Province is sealed!

"Damn it, if this continues, we’ll all die here."

"Not even all the War King Family experts have gone all out yet!"

"Where’s the ancestor? The old ancestor can’t just stand by and watch us die!"

"If the ancestor takes action, Can Sutian would step in too; that’ll directly break the balance, making an even bigger mess."

"Shit, fucking hell."

...

Xu Yang retreated.

The only reason he showed up was to lure Ren Changtian here—and kill him!

Watching the battle raging across the sky like gods and demons, Xu Yang’s heart trembled.

It was terrifying to the extreme!

If this were happening in Daqian, the Great Qian Heaven and Earth would’ve been utterly shattered by now!

Just in this short while, dozens of Shenxiao Realm experts have already fallen.

All of this, just over an ancient secret realm tree!

"All I can say is, Mr. Shi is decisive enough!"

Xu Yang muttered under his breath.

With this, none of the other powers would dare stir up trouble over the secret realm tree again.

And the Infinite Sea would suffer terribly from this blow.

Might even have to swallow their pride!

Of course, there was still one key player!

Can Sutian!

Though he stood with the War King Family, right now what popped into Xu Yang’s mind was just one word.

Shit-stirrer!

For all sides in the Spirit Realm, Can Sutian was basically a damned shit-stirrer!

And this stirrer was outrageously thick!

"Hmm? There are actually True Monarchs here too."

Xu Yang suddenly noticed a few True Monarch Martial Artists on the ground, trembling all over, not even daring to lift their heads, so he darted over.

"Xu Yang!"

Their faces changed as soon as they saw Xu Yang.

"Good chance!"

"He’s only high-tier True Monarch. We have two highs, one perfection!"

"Idiot, are you nuts? If he still has a hidden Shenxiao Realm on him, we’re dead for sure."

The one who suggested it was instantly cursed bloody by the other two.

What happened to Ren Changtian just now was still fresh in their minds!

"Capture him, and maybe there’s a chance to live."

"If we don’t act, you think we’ll live?"

The one advocating to act growled coldly.

The other two’s faces darkened, gritted their teeth, then nodded sharply.

"Kill!"

The three didn’t hesitate any longer, erupting together.

"Still have the guts to attack me..." Xu Yang raised a brow, then relaxed, easily guessing their thoughts.

If they could capture him, he’d be an excellent hostage!

Too bad—even if the Cyan Jade Yin Yang Pendant had no one hiding now—

His strength could not be matched by just these three.

Right as Xu Yang was about to make a move, an annoyed voice sounded: "You bastard, hogging all the action and not calling me!"

"Shi Hu?"

Xu Yang glanced over, surprised.

Shi Hu dashed over like lightning, radiating the aura of a high-tier True Monarch.

"When did you break through?"

Shi Hu said quietly, "Why, only you’re allowed to break through?"

He had completely given up struggling in front of Xu Yang.

When he learned Xu Yang had screwed over Chen Xuanji and single-handedly snatched a secret realm tree, he was totally stunned.

Seriously, cut it out, okay?

How could any single person manage that?

But right now, the secret realm tree stood beneath the Stone Spirit. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"Quit spacing out, let’s go."

"Slaughter those three wastes."

Shi Hu grinned, quickly shelving all his other thoughts.

Swoosh swoosh!

The two burst out at once.

Shi Hu went head-on with a high-tier True Monarch, with no fear at all.

Xu Yang summoned the Asura Blood Saber, spirit marks swirling in the air.

"Lock!"

"Heaven-Crushing Divine Saber!"

Boom!

One savage slash—the high-tier True Monarch glared fiercely: "Fuck, how is he this strong?"

The blade light pressing in felt even scarier than facing a perfection True Monarch!

Splurt!

High-tier True Monarch split in two. The blade’s might was somewhat dulled, but it still swept straight toward the True Monarch Perfection.

Gulp!

The True Monarch Perfection swallowed hard in terror, frantically summoning spirit marks, making them boil over like mad.

Clang!

The blade light was blocked, but a huge force struck.

Xu Yang’s face didn’t change; he swiveled his palm, the Asura Blood Saber unleashing a bloodthirsty screech, twisting like a dragon or serpent, the blade’s edge like a monstrous bloody maw snapping at the enemy’s spirit mark.

Bang!

The opponent’s spirit mark was thunderstruck, cracks shooting through, retreating instantly.

The True Monarch Perfection grunted dully, tossing out a pearl.

"Bad!"

Xu Yang’s heart jolted; he leapt back without hesitation, his sleeve swirling wildly, creating a dense tide of saber light in front of him.

Boom!

A wave of destructive power burst forth, shredding the saber light like a storm tearing through bamboo, driving Xu Yang backward.

With a muffled grunt, Xu Yang’s face paled slightly, suffering a minor injury from the shockwave.

Lifting his gaze—

He saw the fleeing True Monarch Perfection abruptly freeze.

Shi Hu appeared beside him like a ghost, snatched out with curved fingers, yanking a colorful thread from the True Monarch’s body right into his palm.

Splurt!

A faint line appeared on the True Monarch Perfection’s neck—a spray of blood gushed out; he crumpled on the spot.

"Always gotta rely on me."

Shi Hu cocked his chin proudly.

Snatching the spoils right under Xu Yang’s nose felt pretty great.

Xu Yang didn’t mind. Curious, he examined the thread: "What treasure is that?"

Shi Hu’s face darkened. He muttered, "My old man gave it to me. It’s the Stone Flame Spirit Silk—made from materials shed by the Stone Spirit."

Stone Spirit?

Xu Yang was startled; on close look, he noticed the thread’s surface flickered with faint flame-like light.

No doubt—it was a high-quality True Monarch’s Supreme Treasure.

"Enough!"

A sinister shout suddenly rang from endless, remote void.

The massive stone shadow sealing the entire Spirit Stone Province shuddered, seeming close to shattering.

"Hiss!"

"It’s the Infinite Sea’s Heavenperson Ancestor!"

Shi Hu’s face twisted.

"Heavenperson can’t sit still any longer." Xu Yang squinted into the void.

"A hundred thousand spirit sources! Shi Feng, let them go!" The Infinite Sea’s Heavenperson Ancestor’s voice boomed across the land, completely ignoring the Stone Spirit’s seal.

The Infinite Sea just backed down!

"Deal!" Shi Feng didn’t hesitate, instantly lifting the seal.

"A hundred thousand spirit sources? Is that a lot?"

Xu Yang looked at Shi Hu in confusion.

Shi Hu’s face immediately began twitching hard at those words.
