Chapter 730: Destruction Is Simpler

"Kid, you are indeed a genius, but you shouldn't have, you really shouldn't have, come here!"

As the handsome young man's voice fell, ten thousand miles of dark clouds completely obscured the light, instantly turning this place into a pitch-black night where one could not see their own fingers.

Within the dark clouds, thunder rumbled, as if ten thousand jun of thunder were coiled and ready to strike; the faint light within caused one's heart to palpitate.

In an instant, the heavens and earth changed color, and all things lost their voice, as if everything were trembling under this terrifying omen, not daring to make the slightest sound.

Only the handsome young man's wild laughter remained on the spot; he could not wait to devour the person before him!

"Kid, since you delivered yourself to my door, then I will graciously accept!"

As a cold snort rang out, the dark clouds in the sky seemed to plummet instantly, submerging Shen Yu within them.

Bolts of lightning erupted from the dark clouds, and countless bolts of thunder intertwined, their infinite power converging into one—a bolt of lightning that pierced through the heavens and the earth.

It traversed the heavens and earth, like a pillar of the sky.

The next moment, the lightning fell, swallowing everything with an aura capable of destroying all; the terrifying destructive power almost turned everything nearby into charcoal in an instant.

But the next moment, a ray of light seemed to flicker from within the dark clouds, as if confronting the thunder's radiance.

Before the handsome young man could react, the dark clouds falling from the sky had completely collapsed, and a vast radiance appeared from the direction where Shen Yu had been standing.

The next moment, this radiance charged straight at him, its speed so fast that it was impossible to dodge, to the point where there was not even time to defend.

Only when this radiance drew near did he react.

This was no radiance at all; it was clearly a human figure, a figure whose aura alone made him tremble.

"Bang!" As a huge sound rang out, the terrifying shockwave subsequently struck his face.

Grabbing the middle-aged man beside him, Shen Yu retreated rapidly, nimbly dodging the aura of the shockwave.

Meanwhile, the space in the distance twisted crazily under this power, and the entire Great Array trembled violently, as if it had nearly shattered under this single blow.

"Lord Shen, this, this..."

Looking at the scene before him, the middle-aged man who had been standing beside Shen Yu seemed somewhat stunned.

From the moment the dark clouds fell and submerged them, he had felt a sense of certain death.

That suffocating sense of crisis was as if even the slightest touch would leave him without a whole corpse; it was a sense of despair where no struggle was possible.

Only then did he understand just how great the gap was between them—so great that it left him unable to muster the courage to resist, only able to close his eyes and wait for death.

For a Martial Artist, what kind of despair was this? Thinking back on how he had wanted to use his own broken body to block the enemy, it seemed somewhat laughable.

And just at this moment, he suddenly felt a terrifying power that one could only look up to appear vaguely beside him; this power was hazy, yet it made him feel as humble as an ant.

At the same time, all crisis was isolated, as if it had never appeared at all.

When he quietly opened his eyes, he saw that a figure had appeared before Lord Shen Yu at some unknown time, and the terrifying power he had vaguely sensed originated from this person.

Who was this person, and when did they arrive?

Just as this question surfaced in his mind, the next moment, a scene appeared that left him dumbfounded.

This figure had actually used their own body to forcefully block the world-destroying thunder falling from the sky.

And with a casual wave, in that light wave, the thunder and dark clouds all dissipated completely.

Such a scene made the middle-aged man widen his eyes involuntarily, and he patted his face in disbelief.

His face hurt; this was not a dream, but how could a person's hand tear through thunder so easily?

At this moment, he felt his previous worldview had been completely overturned; this was entirely different from the martial arts experts he usually saw.

There were no flashing blades or clashing swords, no fists striking flesh. Just a casual strike, a light palm, and the earth shook and mountains swayed, destroying the world like a natural disaster.

When did the martial arts world become like this? It was too terrifying; perhaps he should just retire to the mountains and forests? That would be just fine!

"Not dead?" Narrowing his eyes slightly, Shen Yu looked into the distance, where someone was trying to break through the Array and escape.

Yet not far away, his own Puppet had clearly already slammed the handsome young man into the ground with one hand, creating a bottomless giant pit on the spot, with the cracked ground even extending to his feet.

How did he get to the other side and nearly escape?

It must be said, these old fellows truly cannot be underestimated; fortunately, he had been prepared.

Under Shen Yu's control, Dong Yu flew rapidly into the sky and kicked him back down with one foot.

The opponent's figure was kicked right in front of Shen Yu.

"How is it possible, how did you do it!" Struggling to climb up, the handsome young man spat out a mouthful of blood.

These people all had some life-saving ultimate techniques, and his proudest was the Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell technique.

He could, at the most critical moment, sacrifice the majority of his cultivation to leave his old shell in place, while a new shell condensed and formed in the distance to escape.

And just now, he had used Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell to leave his old shell behind, while his new body escaped under the cover of the terrifying shockwave from being beaten.

But just as he was about to leave, he discovered he could not escape at all; his original Array had been tampered with at some unknown time.

Who was so wicked, this was not how one bullied people!

"Old fellow, why do you think I was wasting words with you earlier? While you were busy tampering and gathering the greatest power of the Array, was I not also sealing this place to prevent you from escaping!"

"You cannot escape!"

"Why don't you just give up struggling? You can't escape anyway. Stand there and don't move, two punches will send you off; if you struggle, I fear it will only make you suffer more."

"Kid, you!" Since he began walking the martial arts world, he had never been insulted like this. Today, even if he died, he would drag you down with him!

A flash of ruthlessness passed through his eyes, and the handsome young man rushed up violently, covered in blood, clearly having used some secret technique to burn himself.

But this power gained by burning his potential and life had no effect when it touched Shen Yu, melting away like frost.

"How is it possible!" Widening his eyes, this was the umpteenth time he had said this.

Clearly, this kid was not much stronger than him; how could his desperate, full-force strike have no effect at all?

Patting his body, Shen Yu looked at the opponent helplessly. You say, even if you want to launch a sneak attack, you should find someone easier to deal with.

Yes, in terms of cultivation, he was not as good as that Puppet of his, but he had a cheat.

Just a moment ago, Shen Yu had already activated his invincible defense; within a quarter of an hour, even if you worked yourself to death, you would never be able to hurt him.

And just at this moment, the figure of Dong Yu had arrived from behind, and with a light palm, merely a casual wave, he was struck back into the ground once more.

A pit even larger than the previous one appeared, and the handsome young master's figure lay miserably at the bottom, no longer able to escape as he had just done.

With a light wave of a hand, the handsome young master's figure was sucked directly up, and Dong Yu grabbed him with one hand.

With just a little force, he could crush him to pieces with one hand.

"You cannot kill me!" Struggling desperately, the handsome young master's eyes held an extremely intense desire to survive; clearly, he did not want to die.

"There are still many lost people who need me to save them, to liberate their hearts. My ideas have not yet been accepted by the world, how can I die here! ~"

"Kill him!"

"Wait, don't you want to ask me something? You people who style yourselves as righteous, don't you all want to persuade me, hoping to change me?"

"I don't want to. Am I sick? Why the hell would I debate with you? Isn't destroying you simpler than persuading you? Kill him!"
