Chapter 448: Gu Xuanming, Die!

The entire Wangyue Mountain changed dramatically in an instant, with wind and thunder raging between heaven and earth.

Howling gale, rolling black clouds, and streaks of golden lightning tore through the dim sky, echoing throughout the forest.

Immediately, countless dazzling golden lights erupted from Jiang Feng's body.

The golden light was extraordinarily brilliant, instantly piercing the surrounding black mist and illuminating the whole Wangyue Mountain.

"Roar!"

A thunderous Dragon Chant suddenly rang out, shaking heaven and earth.

Carrying the mighty ancient Dragon Might, it caused the heavens and earth to resonate.

A massive Golden Dragon Illusory Shadow roared out from Jiang Feng's body.

Its dragon horns were jagged, its eyes blazed like the scorching sun, it unfurled enormous dragon wings, hovering above Jiang Feng's head, blotting out the sky, exuding a destructive aura.

With the appearance of the Kun Long Illusory Shadow, Jiang Feng's injuries healed at a visibly rapid pace.

His once bloodied and mangled body saw wounds gradually close, and the depletion of his essence was fully restored.

In the next instant, Jiang Feng lightly tapped the ground with his feet and rose high into the air.

His pupils flickered with dazzling golden light, and his entire demeanor transformed dramatically.

In that moment, Gu Xuanming's body went rigid, his pupils contracted sharply, and he stared fixedly at Jiang Feng suspended in the air.

At that moment he seemed to see a genuine ancient giant dragon.

That fear made his whole body cold, almost robbing him of the courage to resist.

He could not comprehend how Jiang Feng, who moments ago had no power to resist, could suddenly become so powerful.

That aura even gave him a sense of insignificance, like an ant before a giant dragon.

"You... what kind of monster are you!"

Gu Xuanming could no longer hold back, his voice trembling slightly.

Jiang Feng hovered in midair, looking down at Gu Xuanming from his lofty height.

"Gathering the Shennong Clan One-Stage Qi Yun and the Dragon Bone of Kun Long, Gu Xuanming, this single finger of mine contains a millennium's worth of essence—wonder if you can withstand it?"

As he spoke, Jiang Feng slowly raised his right hand.

His fingertips subtly gathered power, and countless brilliant Starlight converged from heaven and earth, coalescing at his fingertips.

Even the mere aura pressed the surrounding air to the point of near solidification.

Gu Xuanming watched the Starlight at Jiang Feng's fingertips, and his fear reached its peak.

At that moment, only one thought filled his mind.

"Run!"

He would leave this place at any cost!

He knew clearly that Jiang Feng at this moment was no longer someone he could contend with.

If Jiang Feng's finger were to descend, he would surely perish without a trace, leaving no room for any resistance.

"No! I cannot die!"

Gu Xuanming screamed wildly in his heart.

He had endured for decades, barely reaching the Wu Zun Realm, how could he die here?

With that thought, Gu Xuanming dared not linger any longer, turning and sprinting toward the mountain peak.

To run faster, he even began to burn his own life essence.

At that moment, the black mist around him surged instantly, his speed peaked, and his figure flickered through the forest like a phantom.

"If only I can buy a little time!"

Even though he had exhausted all his strength, burned his life essence, and reached his speed limit, the deadly sense of danger behind him still loomed like a sharp blade.

Hovering in midair, Jiang Feng watched Gu Xuanming's fleeing silhouette, a cold smile curling at his lips.

After finally forcing out Kun Long's trump card and spending so much effort, could he really let you escape so easily?

"Then die!"

He slowly raised his hand, his gaze fixed, and pointed a distant finger toward the direction Gu Xuanming was running.

"Puff!"

A faint sound rang out.

Immediately, a bizarre scene unfolded.

The space ahead of Gu Xuanming seemed to collapse completely at that instant, the surrounding air warping and distorting.

Even the very space began to crumble, black rifts appearing and exuding a terrifying suction.

The Starlight gathered at Jiang Feng's fingertips instantly transformed into a Golden Light Pillar, bearing world‑shattering destructive power!

Where it passed, trees and rocks vaporized instantly, and even the black mist was completely evaporated.

Gu Xuanming, desperate in his sprint, sensed the change behind him and instinctively glanced back.

When he saw the rapidly advancing Golden Light Pillar and the collapsing space around it, his soul fled in terror!

He accelerated again, exhausting his last ounce of strength…

Yet his speed seemed sluggish before the Golden Light Pillar.

In a heartbeat, the Golden Light Pillar caught up, instantly enveloping his entire body.

"No! I am not willing to accept this!"

Gu Xuanming let out a desperate scream.

"Boom!"

A earth‑shaking roar erupted as the Golden Light Pillar burst forth.

Terrifying destructive force swept Gu Xuanming's body completely.

He just formed his Wu Zun Golden Body, and under the attack of the Golden Light Pillar it was instantly smashed, crumbling like paper.

The first‑generation Martial Ancestor Strongman, Gu Wang Sect Leader Gu Xuanming, didn't even have a chance to resist before Jiang Feng's single finger turned him instantly into a pile of ash.

With Gu Xuanming's death, the Trembling of Wangyue Mountain gradually subsided throughout.

After Jiang Feng exterminated Gu Xuanming, the Golden Light on his body gradually faded, and the Kun Long Illusory Shadow slowly retracted back into his body.

He only felt a wave of weakness all over; the true Qi and Shennong Qi Yun inside him were almost completely exhausted.

He could no longer support his hovering body; his body went limp, half‑kneeling on the Ground, gasping heavily.

That single finger just now almost drained all his strength.

Jiang Feng, half‑kneeling on the Ground, was drenched in sweat, and his complexion turned somewhat pale.

He rested for a good half a day before slowly opening his eyes, recovering a sliver of spirit.

At that moment, Kun Long's urgent voice immediately rang in Jiang Feng's Brain.

"Get up quickly! No more rest! Go see if that old thing has anything good!"

"This Time His Seat has suffered a big loss; not only did I borrow your Shennong Qi Yun, but also employed the power of Dragon Bone, costing me a lot of origin. I must be allowed to choose first! Otherwise His Seat and you are not done!"

Jiang Feng heard that and gave a slight grin at the corner of his Mouth.

"Don't worry, I can't do without you; letting you choose first is fine."

Jiang Feng took a deep breath, forcefully supporting the weak true Qi within, and stepped forward toward the Mountain summit.

After walking for about the time it takes a incense stick to burn, Jiang Feng finally arrived at the entrance of the cave on the Mountain summit.

The entrance was small, only allowing one person to bend and pass; around it lingered a faint trace of sinister Spiritual Energy.

Jiang Feng steadied his mind, took a deep breath, bent and walked into the entrance.

Just upon entering the entrance, a surge of dense Spiritual Energy instantly slammed into his face.

Inside, the cave was spacious, not the narrowness imagined.

The Ground was paved with smooth rocks, and the walls were inlaid with several Night Bright Pearls that emitted a soft glow, illuminating the entire entrance so that everything inside could be seen with Clarity.

And just as Jiang Feng stepped into the entrance, Kun Long's shocked voice suddenly rang in his Brain.

"Sss! This guy… this damn thing actually hid so many good things?"
