Chapter 626: The Dragon Clan's Might, the Means of the Divine Spirit's Remnant Body!

Slap!

A crisp sound rang out between heaven and earth.

In an instant, the entire world fell silent.

Even the Grand Offering himself was completely dumbfounded.

A burning sensation came from his face, though he had suffered no injury at all—after all, he was a Saint Realm expert, and it was merely a slap.

But to the Grand Offering's inner pride, it was an extremely severe blow.

Su Yu slowly withdrew his hand and calmly looked at the Grand Offering before him.

The Grand Offering's expression first went calm, but quickly twisted into something ferocious.

"Su Yu! You dare strike me!"

"Courting death!"

The Grand Offering roared furiously.

As the Grand Offering of the Holy Temple and a Saint Realm expert to boot, he was a top-tier existence across the entire Central Immortal Domain—essentially no one dared to defy him.

Even Saint Realm experts from other factions, even those whose cultivation was higher than his, could only meekly defer to him under the Holy Temple's authority.

Yet of all things.

Today, he had actually been slapped by a boy of no more than twenty.

And a boy at merely the Venerable Realm at that.

How could this not enrage the Grand Offering?

Even though his entire body was restricted by the Azure Dragon Sage, it did not hinder the ferocious look on the Grand Offering's face.

"Hss!"

Countless experts drew in sharp breaths and could not help looking at Su Yu.

This kid was simply too audacious—a mere mid-stage Venerable Realm cultivator actually slapping the Holy Temple's Grand Offering.

This was undoubtedly trampling the entire Holy Temple's face into the ground and stomping on it.

The Holy Temple's retaliation to follow...

Under the gaze of the crowd, Su Yu slowly returned to his own seat.

Jun Xie glanced at Su Yu in surprise and said, "You kid, you've offended the Holy Temple's Grand Offering and you're still this calm—what exactly are you thinking?"

Su Yu smiled faintly and said casually, "Slapping him was my teacher's order. If the Holy Temple dares to make a move on me, my teacher won't just stand by."

"Besides, the Dragon Clan people are all here. My teacher undoubtedly wants them to bear witness—if the Holy Temple makes a move on me in the future, the Dragon Clan will make a move on the Holy Temple."

Su Yu calmly stated his analysis.

A smile also appeared on Jun Xie's face.

"True enough, it's just the Holy Temple. Although the Holy Temple's power has surged rapidly lately, you are still a member of my Blade-Wielding Court. If the Holy Temple dares to touch you, my Blade-Wielding Court won't sit idly by either."

Jun Xie's words were also calm, but within that calm flowed an unquestionable tone.

Hearing Jun Xie's words, the smile on Su Yu's face grew even richer.

"Su Yu!!!"

At this moment, the power binding the Grand Offering vanished.

Instantly, a sky-soaring killing intent erupted violently from within the Grand Offering's body.

At this moment, he no longer cared that the Azure Dragon Sage was watching from the side.

In the Grand Offering's eyes, there was only Su Yu.

Being slapped was undoubtedly a declaration of his incompetence across the entire Central Immortal Domain.

How could the already haughty Grand Offering of the Holy Temple tolerate this?

"Hmph!"

The Dragon Emperor coldly snorted, his figure flickering slightly as he appeared directly before the Grand Offering, a dangerous glint flashing across his face.

"What? Right in front of me, you still want to make a move on my little brother? Even if that old fogy of your Holy Temple came, he wouldn't dare do such a thing!"

An extremely powerful aura surged forth from within the Dragon Emperor's body.

The Grand Offering's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Eighth Heaven..."

A look of fear crept onto the Grand Offering's face.

As the Dragon Emperor's aura spread out, the Grand Offering's heart was washed by that aura and calmed down.

His expression was dark and incomparably ugly.

As if he had eaten shit.

He gritted his teeth, glaring viciously at Su Yu behind the Dragon Emperor, and growled in a low voice.

"This matter is not over between my Holy Temple and Su Yu!"

He did not dare to say it was not over with the Dragon Clan or the Azure Dragon Sage—he only dared to threaten Su Yu.

"Heh, if my little brother loses a single hair, my Dragon Clan will inevitably invade your Holy Temple with our entire clan. I'd like to see whether your Holy Temple's heaven and earth can still withstand the Dragon Clan's fury!"

"It seems you've ultimately forgotten what happened last time. We didn't hurt your Holy Temple badly enough—you really think you're invincible in the Central Immortal Domain!"

The Dragon Emperor sneered, completely unafraid of the Grand Offering's threat.

At this time, the King of the Underworld also stepped forward with a smile.

"My Nine Nether Purgatory shares a ten-year bond of friendship with the Dragon Clan. Within ten years, if Su Yu loses half a hair, my Nine Nether Purgatory stands with the Dragon Clan!"

At this moment, the Nine Nether Purgatory did not mind helping the Dragon Clan trample the Holy Temple a bit.

After all, the two sides inherently shared an indelible hatred.

It was simply that both were top-tier powers—if they openly went to war, it would inevitably bring devastation to all living beings, and if that drew the Blade-Wielding Court to intervene, things would become difficult to handle.

But the Dragon Clan doesn't exist!

The Dragon Clan's strength alone would crush the Holy Temple, and wouldn't cause untold suffering to the living.

"Old bastard!"

The Grand Priest stared viciously at the Underworld King.

However, the Underworld King merely smiled faintly.

At this moment, the Azure Dragon Sage, who had remained silent all along, slowly spoke.

The voice seemed to come from all directions, impossible to trace to its source.

"If not for the God-Hunting War, you wouldn't be returning to the Holy Temple today!"

Within that faint voice carried an extremely domineering aura.

Many of the sages, hearing the Azure Dragon Sage's words, couldn't help but shrink back slightly.

The Azure Dragon Sage had always been domineering — this was the shared understanding of the entire Central Immortal Domain.

Don't expect the Azure Dragon Sage to reason with you; in the Azure Dragon Sage's view, strength was the only thing that mattered.

And this world itself was just the same — sufficient strength could let you do as you pleased!

"Everyone, remember this well: Su Yu is my disciple. As for what happened to my eldest disciple back then, I trust none of you have forgotten."

"Among those of the same generation, if anyone can defeat Su Yu, or even kill Su Yu, I will never say a word about it. But if any of you wish to bully the young with the old, then I'm sorry — the Dragon Clan will fight you to the death!"

The Azure Dragon Sage spoke faintly.

The Dragon Emperor stood with his hands behind his back, his aura brimming with dominance. "This Emperor seconds it!"

The Azure Dragon King glanced at Su Yu with some conflicted feelings; clearly, even now, the Azure Dragon King still found it hard to accept that Su Yu was their Young Ancestor.

The Azure Dragon King shook his head. "The Azure Dragon lineage seconds it!"

"The Red Dragon lineage seconds it!"

"The Black Dragon lineage seconds it!"

"The White Dragon lineage seconds it!"

One after another, ferocious giant dragons coiled between heaven and earth, growling low.

As if influenced by the voices of the many giant dragons, the little azure dragon also raised its head and let out a few proud roars.

It looked extremely adorable.

"Holy Temple, Great Wei — if I discover that any faction among you likes to bully the young with the old, I'm sorry, you will be annihilated on the spot!"

Above the firmament, a pair of enormous pupils appeared.

The gaze stared straight at the Holy Temple's Grand Priest and Qin Tianhua.

Qin Tianhua's body stiffened slightly, his heart roaring.

"Damn it, why did that old bastard notice me!"

Though furious inside, Qin Tianhua didn't dare say anything; he could only stand rigidly in the void.

"Heh, Qin Tianhua, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Your Great Wei dispatched five Venerable Realm experts to assassinate Su Yu — I haven't settled accounts with your Great Wei over this matter yet!"

The Azure Dragon Sage's gaze fell upon Qin Tianhua.

Qin Tianhua's body grew even stiffer; moreover, energy surged within him, ready to act at the slightest movement from the Azure Dragon Sage.

Qin Tianhua would absolutely flee immediately.

Su Yu glanced in surprise at the Azure Dragon Sage's eyes.

Aside from himself and Bai Lie, no one knew about this matter — how did his teacher know?

Could the Azure Dragon Sage's divine soul already be sufficient to cover the entire Central Immortal Domain?

Hiss, that was simply too terrifying.

Su Yu couldn't help but sigh in amazement.

"For this matter, I'll punish your Great Wei by having you extract five times the energy when drawing the divine aura later — how about that?"

The Azure Dragon Sage said faintly.

Qin Tianhua's expression turned somewhat gloomy.

Extracting the divine aura required a Sage Realm expert to accomplish, but extracting too much was harmful even to Sage Realm experts.

Generally speaking, a Sage Realm expert extracting one portion of energy was already hovering at the safety line.

Five times the energy...

This was undoubtedly making himself suffer!

But compared to his own life...

Qin Tianhua ultimately nodded.

He tacitly accepted.

"As for the Holy Temple... those shameless dogs, this time, three times!"

The Azure Dragon Sage looked at the Grand Priest and immediately flew into a rage, cursing out loud.

The Grand Priest's already dark complexion grew even darker.

Being punished was one thing, but to also curse at the Holy Temple — what was that supposed to mean?

However, when you're under someone else's roof, you have to bow your head.

"Everyone, begin!"

The Azure Dragon Sage spoke faintly, and the pair of eyes above the void slowly disappeared at this moment as well.

The Sage Realm experts exchanged glances, shook their heads, and their figures flashed in an instant, arriving directly in the void above the Divine Abyss.

Jun Xiao also came to the upper air.

The Dragon Emperor and the others coiled their massive bodies and let out deafening roars toward the Divine Abyss below.

Roar roar roar!!!

Sound waves spread, and some of the escaping God Spirit Qi, under the dragon's chant, were instantly shattered.

The void trembled.

"Make a move!"

Jun Xiao let out an explosive shout.

Around them, the faces of the many Saint Realm powerhouses turned extremely solemn, as streaks of multicolored light burst forth in the void.

Wave after wave of surging power frantically poured into the God Spirit Abyss.

Accompanying the Saint Realm powerhouses' power eruption, the entire God Spirit Abyss trembled slightly.

Roar!

Within the abyss, the kui's howls echoed.

The next moment, one after another golden kui shot out from the abyss, attempting to rush out of the God Spirit Abyss.

"You neither-human-nor-ghost thing, get out of my sight!"

At that moment, an explosive shout came from the void.

Between heaven and earth, an invisible force seemed to suddenly smash down upon the golden kui.

Thud!

The void trembled.

One after another golden kui, under that force, were instantly struck down into the abyss.

Beneath the God-Suppressing Mountain Range, the Azure Dragon gazed expressionlessly at the light curtain before him.

Beneath his palm, faint traces of energy still lingered.

Suddenly, that strike just now was made by the Azure Dragon Saint.

"Recently, the remnants of the God Spirit have been restless—first, the God Spirit Tide came early, and this time they even stirred up several golden kui to cause trouble; could it be that this fellow's power has recovered?"

The Azure Dragon Saint's brows were tightly knit, lacking his former dignity, only showing worry.

He seemed to be worrying about something.

Above the God Spirit Abyss.

One after another Saint Realm powerhouse erupted with terrifying power, desperately drawing out the God Spirit Qi from within the abyss.

Gradually, above the God Spirit Abyss, a seven-colored space slowly emerged.

Just like a seven-colored cube.

And the extracted God Spirit Qi was directly transmitted by these Saint Realm powerhouses into the seven-colored cube space.

Once the God Spirit Qi entered the seven-colored space, it directly transformed into black silhouettes that frenziedly darted about inside.

The Underworld King, the Grand Elder, and Jun Xiao stood at the forefront.

Their extracted God Spirit Qi was also the greatest in amount.

Especially the Grand Elder, who this time needed to extract three times the God Spirit Qi.

This was even more difficult.

Indeed, beads of sweat covered the Grand Elder's forehead.

And among the crowd. ghxsw.

Qin Tianhua's face was grim as he strained to draw out God Spirit Qi; compared to the Grand Elder, he was even more miserable, needing to extract five times the power.

As a result, Qin Tianhua's arm trembled slightly.

That was a sign of exhaustion.

And in the deepest part of the God Spirit Abyss, unnoticed by anyone.

A pallid arm hovered faintly in midair, and the inky God Spirit Qi was seen emanating from it.

"Has the Human Race come again... tsk tsk, the God-Hunt War..."

"Let this God-Hunt War become an opportunity for this god!"

The void transmitted whispers.

The next moment, an extremely fine black current seeped out from the arm.

Accompanying the emergence of this current.

The black current diffusing from the surroundings actually weakened considerably.

Aside from being slightly darker in hue than other God Spirit Qi, there was no other difference.

This strand of current followed the God Spirit Abyss, continually flying upward.

Soon, it reached the upper reaches of the abyss.

"With so many Saint Realm experts... which one should I choose?"

The black current paused for a moment, then finally found its target.

It rushed forward quickly; upon contacting the power of those Saint Realm experts, the black current shifted slightly, selecting one person's power and surging upward along it.

Qin Tianhua stood pale in the void, continuously drawing out God Spirit Qi, while beside him, some other Saint Realm experts had already finished the extraction.

Only he continued.

That black current, following Qin Tianhua's power, instantly entered his body.

Unlike other God Spirit Qi, this current directly surged into his body.

Finally, it turned into a black thread that wound around Qin Tianhua's hair.

Qi condensed!

Qin Tianhua himself noticed none of this.

He continued to continuously draw out God Spirit Qi.
