Chapter 268: Heavenly Remnant's Fall

Crack!

Blinding Golden Light surged wildly from the crack, instantly illuminating the pitch‑black plaza.

The Heavenly Remnant Daoist widened his eyes, and the snarling grin on his face froze instantly.

"How could this be? What on earth is this power?"

The Heavenly Remnant Daoist roared, his internal true Qi and blood Qi wildly surged into his Blood Hand Palm, trying to reinforce his defense, but it was all in vain.

Boom!

A deafening, earth‑shaking roar rang out; the massive Blood Hand Palm shattered completely in the Golden Light, turning into a sky‑full of blood mist.

Jiang Feng slowly rose from the ground, his whole body enveloped by dazzling Golden Light.

His aura became terrifyingly immense, far surpassing his previous peak state.

The Heavenly Remnant Daoist stared blankly at the Jiang Feng radiating Golden Light, dumb as a wooden chicken.

"Impossible... Absolutely impossible!"

He couldn't fathom it; Jiang Feng had clearly been beaten into a grave injury, utterly unable to strike back, yet suddenly unleashed such terrifying power?

"With your strength, how could you possibly break my shackles?"

The Heavenly Remnant Daoist finally reacted, roaring at Jiang Feng.

"What on earth did you do?"

Jiang Feng gave no reply; his eyes were ice‑cold.

He took a step forward, the stone slab beneath his foot shattered instantly, and Golden Light spread outward with his stride.

From within his body came a faint, low Dragon Chant, as if an ancient beast were awakening…

The Heavenly Remnant Daoist keenly sensed something amiss, his complexion changed abruptly, and a strong unease surged in his heart.

Jiang Feng's aura at this moment was several times more terrifying than before, giving him an extremely unfamiliar feeling.

It seemed the person before him was no longer the Jiang Feng he knew, but another ancient and powerful being.

However, at this moment the Heavenly Remnant Daoist's aura had also reached its peak, infinitely close to the Heavenly Human Realm, his strength having attained an unprecedented height.

Strong confidence overrode his unease, and the Heavenly Remnant Daoist's face again broke into a ferocious grin.

"No matter what tricks you're playing, this time I will kill you completely!"

"Today I will use your blood to consecrate my Path to Becoming Dao!"

As the words fell, the Heavenly Remnant Daoist's figure vanished instantly from the spot.

Countless blood Qi surged toward the sky, rolling and churning, eventually coalescing into a Celestial Blood Road.

The Blood Road rose dozens of zhang high, its whole body composed of dense blood Qi, its surface covered with countless twisted human faces.

This Celestial Blood Road was formed from the lives of Liu Tianzhou, Lin Qinghan, Miao Linfeng, and all other dead Cultivators.

Jiang Feng gazed at the Celestial Blood Road, and a trace of pain finally flickered in his ice‑cold eyes.

Familiar faces flashed one by one in his mind…

"Senior brother, Qinghan…"

Jiang Feng whispered in his heart, his low voice laden with endless killing intent.

"Today, I will use this old dog's blood to appease your spirits in the heavens!"

Jiang Feng closed his eyes and spoke in an exceedingly low voice.

"Kun Long, as long as you help me slay this old dog, I will lift your Double Seal!"

"Kye Kye Kye…"

Kun Long's voice rang in his mind instantly.

"Fine! That's what you said, no backing out!"

"From now on, let me fully take over your body! With me inside, not even that ant about to step into the Heavenly Human Realm—let alone a true Heavenly Human Realm Expert—I could swallow him in a single bite!"

As soon as the words fell, Jiang Feng's body twitched slightly.

Out of sight, faint golden scales flickered beneath Jiang Feng's skin.

His pupils had at this moment turned a crimson red.

"Hmm? This aura… is it Dragon Might?"

The Heavenly Remnant Daoist's voice came from the Celestial Blood Road, tinged with surprise.

"You have a dragon sealed inside you? No wonder you're such a Demon Rogue! But even if it's a dragon, so what? You'll still die today!"

Before the words finished, a blood‑colored arrow, refined to perfection, shot out from the Celestial Blood Road at extreme speed, its whistling tearing the air, heading straight for Jiang Feng's brow.

The blood‑colored arrow gathered the core power of the Celestial Blood Road; even a Half-step Celestial Realm expert could not possibly withstand it.

The Heavenly Remnant Daoist was brimming with confidence, believing this arrow would certainly finish Jiang Feng!

But just as the blood‑colored arrow was about to pierce Jiang Feng's brow, Jiang Feng suddenly opened his crimson eyes.

A bizarre event occurred: the overwhelming blood‑colored arrow, only an inch from Jiang Feng's brow, instantly halted in mid‑air, unable to advance any further.

"How could this be?"

The Heavenly Remnant Daoist immediately manifested, standing atop the Celestial Blood Road, eyes wide open.

Jiang Feng let out a cold laugh, slowly raised his right hand, and reached for the suspended blood‑colored arrow.

Crack!

Jiang Feng's fingertip gently pinched, and the blood‑colored arrow shattered instantly, turning into specks of blood mist that dissipated into the air.

"Damn! What kind of monster is this?"

The Heavenly Remnant Daoist roared, daring not to hold anything back, pouring all his true Qi and blood Qi into the Celestial Blood Road.

"Then let us perish together! Blood Road Burial Heaven!"

The Celestial Blood Road surged instantly, becoming even larger!

The faces above twisted even more severely, emitting a chilling wail, and a destructive aura enveloped the Throughout square.

But Jiang Feng was not Silk at all, and a flash of savage Laughter crossed his crimson eyes.

His figure flickered, like teleportation, and he instantly appeared before the Heavenly Ruined Daoist, moving so fast that the Heavenly Ruined Daoist could not react.

"Not good!"

The Heavenly Ruined Daoist's complexion changed drastically; he tried to retreat, but found his body already locked by a powerful force, fundamentally None to move.

Jiang Feng gave him no chance to react; his right hand formed a Fist with powerful Dragon Might and slammed toward the Heavenly Ruined Daoist's chest.

"Don't even think of killing me!"

The Heavenly Ruined Daoist's Pupils narrowed sharply, and subconsciously raised both hands, gathering his whole body's power for defense.

"Bang!"

A deafening roar sounded, and Jiang Feng's Fist struck solidly against the Heavenly Ruined Daoist's defense.

An ultimate terrifying force erupted, and the Heavenly Ruined Daoist's defense shattered instantly like paper.

"No!"

The Heavenly Ruined Daoist let out a Despair-filled roar, his body flying backward like a kite with a broken string, spitting a large mouthful of fresh blood.

He could Clarity feel that a domineering force surged into his body.

What made him more fearful was that he saw in Jiang Feng's Pupils a flash of Obscurity dragon shadow.

The Heavenly Ruined Daoist struggled in the air, trying to steady his form, but everything was in vain.

"Crack! Crack!"

The sound of Bone cracking kept coming, and the Heavenly Ruined Daoist's body twisted continuously in the air.

His Meridians were completely severed, his cultivation dissipated, and the blood qi within his body was thoroughly purified by Dragon Might.

In the next breath, the Heavenly Ruined Daoist's figure shattered into four parts in the air, turning into a sky of flesh and blood, scattering to the ground.

An evil cultivator of his generation, on the verge of the Heavenly Human Realm, the Heaven‑ruined Daoist, perished.
