Boom!
An intense vibration shook the ground beneath their feet, causing it to crack open.
Pei Xuanjing stood unmoved, but his opponents staggered backward, the aftershocks of the battle startling their horses.
An eerie silence.
Gazing at Pei Xuanjing, his clothes flapping in the wind, head held high, standing unyieldingly, the crowd fell silent.
Only those who had faced him in hand-to-hand combat could truly appreciate Pei Xuanjing’s power.
At this moment, they understood why Pei Xuanjing had earned such a prestigious reputation in such a short period.
Why he maintained his calm even while pursued by the imperial court of the Great Ming.
The four first-grade masters, Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon, were stunned and speechless.
They could not comprehend the great gap between themselves and Pei Xuanjing, despite being of the same grade. How could a man be so powerful?
King Chujiang looked at this extraordinary man, feeling the hidden fear rise within him once again.
In the previous battle at Xuanfu, Pei Xuanjing fended off the encirclement of numerous masters and weighed down by heavy troops, yet he managed to kill Qian Ning and another first-grade master effortlessly, then calmly walked away.
Back then, Pei Xuanjing was merely of the second-class realm. Now that he has broken into the first-class realm, perhaps only the world’s greatest master could defeat him!
“My lord, are you okay?” Yue Huan, who had just regained her senses, asked Ning King Zhu Chenhao, whom she had quickly pulled and pushed away during the fray.
Even though Zhu Chenhao was a third-grade Martial Artist, he achieved his rank of master by refining mystical artifacts.
In addition, given his pampered upbringing, he lacked the ability to fend for himself in such a fight.
“The four of you are indeed talented. In the world of martial arts, you’re considered top tier. However, it’s a shame that…”
Appreciation flashed in Pei Xuanjing’s eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
He then transformed into a divine sword of unmatched sharpness, coldly stating, “I’m afraid this is your end.”
His words were calm, yet they seemed to carry an indisputable will.
In this instant, everyone present could feel the formidable aura emanating from him.
Without needing any reminder, Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon, along with King Chujiang and the others, readied their True Qi and their Blood Qi surged, preparing for Pei Xuanjings impending furious attack.
Not that they hadn’t considered striking first.
However, faced with Pei Xuanjing’s terrifying aura, they knew that taking the initiative would only expose their weaknesses. It was better to focus on defense.
Bang!
Pei Xuanjing’s True Qi erupted. His Blood Qi roiled and surged as he drew his sword. Every motion, from drawing the blade to slashing it, was as fluid and continuous as flowing water without any hesitation!
A dazzling swordlight emerged, bright enough to illuminate the entire world.
The radiance of the brilliant sun-like sword intent burst forth, demonstrating a power that seemed capable of severing the heavens and the earth.
All external sensations seemed to disappear. In their minds, everything in the world disappeared, leaving only the sword before their eyes.
They responded!
Synchronized by years of rapport, the four masters of Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon acted in unison without the need for communication.
Their powerful True Qi surged, their Blood Qi on the horizon flowed rapidly. They held nothing back, nor did they dare to. They unleashed all their power at Pei Xuanjing.
The four of them, as martial siblings of the same sect , were experienced in this combined attack. When they teamed up, their power increased exponentially from before.
King Chujiang and the high -ranking members of the Mire Sect also released their most powerful Martial Studies, forming a siege alongside the four masters’ attack.
Boom…boom…boom…
The sounds of constant explosions rang out like thunder.
However, Pei Xuanjing remained unmoved.
Whoosh…
Pei Xuanjing’s body was surrounded by rippling waves of Qi, his overhead Blood Qi appeared to mimic the coursing of the Heavenly River, stirring and wild.
Such powerful Blood Qi.
The Blood Qi disturbed the area around by several dozen feet, causing even trees to burst into flames from its heat, without any sparks being present.
Bang!
It was like splitting mountains and cracking the earth, as if the sky was falling and the ground was collapsing. Dust filled the air, a burning wave of heat surged in all directions. The fierce collision caused everyone present to be pushed back by the intense vibration.
Splat!
All four masters of Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon retreated several feet, blood trickled from the corners of their mouths as they stared at the man standing tall, his clothes roaring in the wind, his hair flowing with the breeze.
The ground beneath Pei Xuanjing’s feet remained unscathed, but beyond that area, the earth was filled with cracks, as wide as a wrist.
“Yue Huan, take Ning King and go. Don’t worry about us,” Wind Blade coughed out a mouthful of clotted blood and said solemnly.
“Senior brother!” Yue Huan covered her mouth with a heavy heart. She glanced at Ning King Zhu Chenhao, who was too shocked to speak a word. Her eyes hesitated as they shifted back to the Wind Blade and the others.
“Don’t let our deaths be in vain. If you get a chance, avenge us.” Snow Spear’s voice rang out.
Yue Huan gritted her teeth, ready to leave with the Ning King.
“You want to leave? Did you ask me?” A trace of cold light flashed in Pei Xuanjings eyes.
His body spun around, and he once again drew his sword.
“Stop him!” The Wind Blade shouted, raising his weapon to meet him head-on.
Flower Sword and Snow Spear also followed closely.
At this moment, Pei Xuanjing had no intention of entangling with them, his Blood Qi was flowing, and the muscles, bones, and skin of his body were rumbling. He raised his hand, and a sword whizzed down.
The sword technique was called: “Flying Immortal Outside the Sky”.
Now, without any worries, Pei Xuanjing had boldly performed this move.
As the light flew obliquely, it resembled a startling radiance cutting the sky, penetrating deep into the bone marrow, the chilling sword aura, the edge of the sword was invincible.
Splat! Thud!
One sword pierced the throat. Three first-grade masters faced Pei Xuanjing’s sword and fell on the spot. Their weapons clattered to the ground.
“Senior brother!” Upon seeing this, Yue Huan’s eyes were red with rage. But she knew she was not Pei Xuanjing’s match. Her eyes displayed immense hatred as she took one last toxic look at Pei Xuanjing, remembering his face in her memory.
She then decisively led Ning King Zhu Chenhao to flee into the distance.
Of course, Pei Xuanjing would not allow them to escape.
He casually swung his sword a few times, killing King Chujiang and the others, then leapt forward to continue the chase.
Poor King Chujiang, infamous in the Martial World, and a man who inspired fear in many, was slain by Pei Xuanjing as easily as killing chickens or butchering dogs. From the beginning to the end, he was not even aware of his opponents’ identities.
Yue Huan was a first-grade martial artist. If she had been alone, it would have taken Pei Xuanjing some effort to chase her down.
However, burdened by Zhu Chenhao, she hadn’t gotten far before Pei Xuanjing caught up.
Whoosh!
Seeing no way out, Yue Huan threw her rings from her hands. Her missile, roaring with slicing wind, charged straight at Pei Xuanjing, hoping to hold him off.
Clang!
Pei Xuanjing flicked his wrist, and the two rings were deflected. A swift thrust of his sword ended her life.
Now, Zhu Chenhao was left alone, facing the terrifying Pei Xuanjing..
