Chapter 2422: Crushing, Seeking Help

~7 min read 1,292 words

Such a huge gap left everyone present with an unreal feeling.

Countless gazes stared blankly, sweeping back and forth over Ye Zhangqing and An Sheng Xin.

The situation changed so quickly that no one had anticipated it.

And An Sheng Xin stumbled up from the ground, his eyes bloodshot as he looked at Ye Zhangqing.

Ancient Immortal Realm — this Xia Jie barbarian's cultivation is actually Ancient Immortal Realm, putting him ahead of the four of them.

He became the first of the current younger generation to break through to the Ancient Immortal Realm.

But how could it be possible? How could it be him? Just relying on him, a single Xia Jie barbarian, what qualifies him to be the first to break through to the Ancient Immortal Realm?

He should be a good-for-nothing.

An Sheng Xin couldn't accept the fact that Ye Zhangqing had broken through to the Ancient Immortal Realm, at least for a moment.

Even if he had the Nine Heavens Treasure Tree, it shouldn't be him who was first to break through; even if it were Tianlin, Miao Qianqian and the others, An Sheng Xin could accept that, but the only one he couldn't accept was Ye Zhangqing.

Yet he did break through.

In that recent exchange, An Sheng Xin personally felt Ye Zhangqing's cultivation level.

The suppression from the great realm gap left An Sheng Xin with no recourse.

He hated, he envied, and could not accept it.

Facing An Sheng Xin's ferocity, Ye Zhangqing walked toward him step by step, neither hurried nor slow.

His steps were not fast, but the killing intent emanating from his whole body already revealed his murderous intent.

Since the earlier probing had already confirmed An Sheng Xin's true cultivation, there was naturally nothing left to hide.

Today I will here behead An Sheng Xin beneath my blade.

Everyone present also guessed what Ye Zhangqing was thinking.

Under normal circumstances, the Immortal Realm's Five Great Yāoniè, even senior powerhouses would not dare to kill them.

Moreover, not to mention these Yāoniè, each person possesses countless life-saving treasures.

Moreover, behind each of them stands a supreme expert protecting their Dao.

Furthermore, the current Five Great Yāoniè each have backgrounds that can be described as overwhelming.

The reason is simple: not being a top-tier power of the Immortal Realm, they cannot afford the Xiūliàn of a single Yāoniè, let alone protect that person's safety.

Furthermore, a Yāoniè's talent would never choose to join an ordinary faction.

Against such a background, slaying a Yāoniè will inevitably provoke a frenzied retaliation from the forces behind them.

With such consequences, how many people in the Immortal Realm could bear them?

But the problem is, this is not a normal situation, and Ye Zhangqing is not an ordinary person.

Others might not dare to kill, but Ye Zhangqing definitely would.

The killing intent emanating from his whole body already explained everything.

Ignoring everyone's astonished thoughts, Ye Zhangqing stepped step by step to stand before An Sheng Xin.

An Sheng Xin felt that icy killing intent, gritted his teeth; although he knew he was no match, he would absolutely not surrender.

Therefore, before Ye Zhangqing could act, he launched the attack first.

And as soon as he struck, he went all out, sword intent swirling around his body; the terrifying sword intent caused the surrounding space to change color.

It indeed looked chilling.

But such terrifying sword intent, in the face of Ye Zhangqing, appeared rather feeble.

No matter how grand your momentum or how flashy your moves, I am just a single blade.

Under everyone's gaze, Ye Zhangqing faced An Sheng Xin's fierce sword intent, his feet unceasing, and he slashed out a single blade.

Directly shattering An Sheng Xin's sword intent that surrounded his body into pieces.

The sword intent that An Sheng Xin had painstakingly condensed, under Ye Zhangqing's single blade, instantly shattered into pieces.

Everyone watching was stunned; this was completely a crushing domination.

"A dead-end situation, still struggling?"

Among the Five Great Yāoniè, the gap in cultivation is exactly that—a gap; even a small realm difference cannot be bridged, let alone a great realm difference, which is like a chasm.

Ye Zhangqing simply and crudely overwhelms with power, relying on the cultivation realm gap to crush An Sheng Xin head-on.

And this leaves An Sheng Xin with no recourse whatsoever.

The sword intent he had fully condensed hadn't even been used before Ye Zhangqing shattered it with a single blade.

Without the sword intent protecting him, An Sheng Xin was naturally completely exposed before Ye Zhangqing.

The next second, a blade arc flashed across, followed immediately by An Sheng Xin's anguished cry as an arm was cleanly severed.

Originally aimed at the neck, intending to behead him with one strike, but An Sheng Xin, risking grave injury, managed to dodge.

Although the severed arm quickly regenerated, appearing as good as new, An Sheng Xin's complexion still paled a bit.

Most importantly, while doing these things, Ye Zhangqing always appeared nonchalant.

There was no sign of any strain.

Although Limb Regeneration is not difficult for An Sheng Xin, it could even be said to be the simplest thing.

Yet Ye Zhangqing could so easily sever his arm; once done, how far off could a second or third be?

And how many times could he endure Limb Regeneration?

As expected, the next second Ye Zhangqing struck again; this time An Sheng Xin's head was directly chopped off.

Although still insufficient to kill him, he soon regenerated and recovered.

Yet Ye Zhangqing showed no concern; if Yāoniè talent were that easy to kill, such a vast Immortal Realm would not have only the Five Great Young Yāoniè.

Wanting to slay An Sheng Xin with a single blow, even relying on cultivation realm superiority to crush him, is impossible.

However, it doesn't matter; this guy can achieve Limb Regeneration and indestructible soul, but there is always a limit.

Killing to this extreme is enough; there will always be a blade capable of destroying both his body and spirit.

Ye Zhangqing was not discouraged either; he continued to close in step by step, preparing to strike.

An Sheng Xin, however, actively retreated at this moment, widening the gap; his expression gave the impression of fleeing in defeat.

Seeing this, many of the Heavenly Pride present felt a sense of regret.

That is the exalted Holy Son of Extreme Bliss Palace, the first Holy Son of Extreme Bliss Palace—when has he ever been driven to such a desperate strait?

He looked as if he had no courage left to fight back.

Faced with Ye Zhangqing, he could only cover his head and flee like a rat.

However, just as everyone was still sighing over this, they heard An Sheng Xin shout.

"Come help me quickly."

Among the many young Heavenly Pride present, coming from various forces, there naturally were those affiliated with Extreme Bliss Palace.

And the Heavenly Pride disciples of those forces, by rights, ought to obey An Sheng Xin's commands.

For them, Extreme Bliss Palace is like an Upper Sect.

If the Upper Sect issues an order, how could they not obey?

But at this moment, upon hearing An Sheng Xin's words, these Heavenly Pride disciples fell silent, staring at each other.

Helping him by taking action? Look at the situation—those present are all of the younger generation; the older generation's experts are absent.

And the opponent An Sheng Xin faces is Ye Zhangqing, who, like him, is one of the present age's five great monsters, and who has also broken through the Ancient Immortal Realm.

Having them step forward to stop Ye Zhangqing? That's like lighting a lamp in the toilet—do they even have the ability?
