Chu Linfeng felt a slight shock in his heart upon seeing Jia Taibai dodge his attack. It seemed that Jia Taibai was indeed very powerful, with a reaction speed even faster than the Beast King.

"Hehe, how does that taste? You managed to dodge that strike, so it looks like we’re going to have some fun today. It seems you’ve been hiding your strength. If I’m not mistaken, you should be at the Fifth-Layer Peak of Martial Venerable Realm, but you’re still no match for me. So today, everyone here has only one outcome—death!"

The other patriarchs of Qingtian City were also enraged. They never expected the young man’s strength to be so heaven-defying. They pulled out their weapons, ready to join forces to kill the two of them.

"Xiao Qiang, keep them busy. I’ll be right there!" Chu Linfeng secretly transmitted to Xiao Qiang, while the Chaotic Dragon Power within him surged wildly. Jia Taibai’s strength did not seem any weaker than the Ghost King; to kill him, Chu Linfeng needed to use his full power, including attacking with the space’s Thunder Element.

Chu Linfeng was of two minds, gathering Thunder Element on one side while circulating Chaotic Dragon Power on the other, preparing to use the Star Slash to test the opponent’s strength and see if it was as he thought. If so, he could only rely on the Qilin Arm. Unfortunately, his current realm wasn’t enough to unleash the terrifying Divine Slash, or one move might suffice to slay him.

"Kid, you’re indeed impressive to see through my true strength. If we could be friends, perhaps we could control the Netherworld in due course. But now that you’ve killed my son, we’re bound to a relentless outcome," Jia Taibai said angrily.

The back, wounded by the Golden Element Sword Qi, had completely healed at this moment, with a recovery speed no weaker than Chu Linfeng’s. Truly a formidable opponent. "You talk too much. If you want to kill me, show your true skills. If it’s still that broken Domain, forget it; your Domain has practically no effect on me."

Chu Linfeng looked at the opponent with a smile but became even more cautious in his heart. The Cyan Frost Sword appeared from the Storage Ring, and his figure flashed as he unleashed Star Slash. However, he didn’t use the Thunder Element attack; he needed to gather more Thunder Element for the assault.

"Bring it on!" Jia Taibai shouted angrily, swinging his Golden Giant Sword energetically. The Golden Sword Qi attacked Chu Linfeng. Both attacks were immensely powerful, filling the entire space with a violent energy aura. Countless gusts of wind formed into a massive tornado sweeping the sky, causing the winds and clouds to change as if it were the end of the world.

"Boom!" The explosive sound of energy collision echoed through the heavens and earth. A towering mountain was leveled to the ground by the energy of the strike. Countless intricate cracks appeared on the ground, each several meters wide and unfathomably deep, stretching beyond sight.

The two were simultaneously blasted several hundred meters by the powerful energy attack before coming to a halt. Chu Linfeng’s chest heaved erratically, as he forcefully swallowed a mouthful of reversed blood that had surged to his throat, gaining a newfound understanding of the strength of the Fifth-Layer Peak of the Venerable Martial Realm.

"It seems my current defense power and strength can only contend with a basic Fifth-Layer Venerable Martial Realm practitioner. Even an intermediate level seems challenging. I need to improve my strength. The Human King and Netherworld Lord might be even stronger; I’ve underestimated them," he muttered to himself.

"Lin Feng, knowing your own limitations is wise. To slay a powerhouse of this caliber requires a stroke of luck. The secrets you carry are too many, giving you an unpredictable advantage. After this affair, be sure to conceal your strength, or you’ll regret it," Sword Spirit spoke at this moment.

"I understand that naturally. Today’s battle is bound to be extremely tough. If only I could break through one or two more realms," Chu Linfeng said with a bitter smile.

Meanwhile, Xiao Qiang had also engaged in battle with the other patriarchs. Although he was a Fourth Level of Venerable Martial Realm expert, his opponents were not weak. He seemed to be struggling but, for now, was not in dire danger.

Jia Taibai’s blood and energy were also in turmoil at the moment. He was shocked by Chu Linfeng’s strike. At such a young age, to possess such strength was truly unheard of. Perhaps in hundreds of thousands of years, such a heaven-defying figure had not appeared in the Netherworld. If a person like this were to grow, he would certainly become an overlord. By any means necessary, he must be assassinated at any cost.

"Kid, you’re strong, stronger than I imagined. If given another ten years, perhaps no one in the Netherworld could be your match. But now, I won’t let that happen. Take another strike from me!" Jia Taibai said.

The Golden Long Sword in his hand shone with a golden light, slowly enveloping him. At this moment, he appeared like a Golden Armor War God, imposing and giving off an incredibly terrifying aura.

Chu Linfeng knew he was unleashing a mightily overbearing Martial Skill. Perhaps it was the strongest Martial Skill he could wield. It was crucial to disrupt it before he had fully executed it to substantially injure him.

This was an opportunity Chu Linfeng had to seize. He immediately employed the Qilin Arm, channeling all the Chaotic Dragon Power into his arm, while the controlled Thunder Element appeared above Jia Taibai’s head.

With a thought, a thunderbolt, thick as a barrel, appeared in the sky. The speed of the thunderbolt was so fast that Jia Taibai couldn’t react. It struck his body in an instant; the formidable Power of Thunder and Lightning enveloped him entirely, his body flickering with lightning, which, combined with the golden light on him, appeared even more bizarre.

"Ah!" Jia Taibai felt as though his body had fallen apart when struck by the sudden thunderbolt. The pain spread throughout his body immediately. Despite his Fifth Layer of Venerable Martial Realm strength, he was struck down into the earth, sinking into the soil.

At this moment, Chu Linfeng seemed like a War God. Employing Instant Teleportation, he appeared directly in front of Jia Taibai as he fell to the ground, and Star Slash was unleashed simultaneously. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

The Star Slash deployed with the Qilin Arm, though perhaps not tearing heaven and earth apart, had a terrifying Attack Power. The entire ground trembled as if in an earthquake, instantly creating a bottomless pit hundreds of miles in diameter, with even subterranean magma visible.

Such tremendous commotion truly caused the ground to quake and the mountains to shake. The destructive effect of this massive Attack Power left the fighting Xiao Qiang and several others in the air stunned, rendering them momentarily frozen as they all looked down at Chu Linfeng on the ground...
