Chapter 689: Killing Two Birds with One Stone
"Boom!"
Fang Tianyu's body rapidly fell, finally smashing into the ground and creating a crater.
"Cough! Cough!"
Continuous coughing sounds emanated from his throat as blood kept overflowing from the corners of his mouth. His originally handsome face was now completely unrecognizable.
Because of this dramatic turn of events, which happened too abruptly, the Sea Transformation Peak cultivators of the Cold Extreme Palace did not regain their senses in time to catch Fang Tianyu.
Shen Feng in the sky, looking down at Fang Tianyu on the ground, was also within that faint golden light, which had weakened the force of his attack. Had it been outside, the key he had drawn would certainly have turned Fang Tianyu's head into a cloud of blood mist.
Yan Yitao and Fan Langfei, witnessing Fang Tianyu being whipped away, had their nerves in their brains suddenly tense up. Their figures unconsciously retreated a bit, keeping vigilant expressions on their faces and a hint of unease in their eyes. They had thought Shen Feng was an ant that could easily be crushed, but it turned out he was an ant that could trample elephants!
Jiang Muyun and Xu Ziyue, with their beautiful eyes flickering, lips slightly parted, obviously hadn't anticipated this outcome either. Their gazes fixed on Shen Feng, filled with curiosity and doubt.
Lu Tingting stood below, stupefied like a wooden stake, her face full of disbelief. After a few seconds, she couldn't help but pucker her lips, muttering to herself, "He, he's actually that strong? Even Fang Tianyu got whipped away by him? Was everything he did before just an act?"
Zou Bocheng denied, "Does he need to act for anyone? I think maybe there's something odd about the huge key behind him, only we haven't felt it yet!"
Amidst the talk,
a bitter smile was on his lips, and the shock on his face had not yet faded.
Lu Jinghua's Adam's apple bobbed, swallowing spit continually, and said, "Fortunately, he bears us no malice, otherwise I fear even Master wouldn't be his match."
Zou Bocheng's old face turned red, defending, "That's not necessarily true, maybe he relies on the huge key in his hand."
As the three of them whispered,
the scorn on the faces of the other cultivators below had not completely dissipated. When Shen Feng sent Fang Tianyu flying with a single key strike, their expressions had frozen, the boy they viewed as a mere jesting clown possessed such combat strength?
Meanwhile,
Yan Yitao and Fan Langfei could no longer bear the pressure. They hurriedly shot out of the golden light and only after reaching a safe distance did they stop in the sky.
Shen Feng didn't bother with the two who had escaped. His figure immediately arrived in front of the large golden building's gate.
When the huge key in his hand accidentally touched the gate,
a "click" sounded.
A small hole appeared on the gate, and Shen Feng tried inserting the huge key; it fit perfectly. With so many cultivators present, it was clearly impossible for him to secretly open the door.
Xu Ziyue and Jiang Muyun, seeing the change in the gate, had their expressions subtly alter, not expecting that the huge key in Shen Feng's hand was actually crucial for unlocking this place.
As the key left Shen Feng's palm, the aura and momentum within his body were no longer suppressed. Many immediately sensed his cultivation.
Fang Tianyu, lying in the crater, felt the intense pain on his face and Shen Feng's dismissive attitude. He was the number one son of the Lower Realm! This time, he was sent flying by a little Nascent Variation Late Stage kid? He couldn't swallow this humiliation. When had he ever been in such a sorry state? With all the strength left in him, he yelled at the Sea Transformation Peak cultivators of the Cold Extreme Palace, "Kill this kid for me, and bring me his head!"
Upon hearing Fang Tianyu's roar,
the two Sea Transformation Peak cultivators from Cold Extreme Palace finally snapped out of their daze. In the Cold Extreme Palace, their combat power was the strongest among all in the Sea Transformation Stage, and they even had the strength to battle against Half-step Tribulation Transcendence cultivators.
Clearly sensing that Shen Feng only had Nascent Variation Late Stage cultivation, the two advanced and retreated in the air, pushing their momentum to the utmost limit.
The two pinnacle Sea Transformation cultivators from the Cold Extreme Palace made their moves at the same time, their combat power much greater than Fang Tianyu's.
The cultivators present fixed their gazes on Shen Feng after watching these two pinnacle Sea Transformation individuals take action. The key moment that sent Fang Tianyu flying indeed shocked many, but now, facing two pinnacle Sea Transformation cultivators from the Cold Extreme Palace, in their eyes, it seemed this kid had no chances of stirring up any trouble.
Lu Tingting, after witnessing this scene, grew anxious involuntarily. Of course, her heart sided with Shen Feng, but with the simultaneous action of two pinnacle Sea Transformation cultivators, and their aura so strong, unlike that of ordinary cultivators of the same stage, could Shen Feng really survive their assault? The odds were extremely low.
Zou Bocheng and Lu Jinghua were not optimistic about Shen Feng's prospects either. In their view, Shen Feng was overly arrogant, and he would definitely pay for it with his life.
Yan Yitao and Fan Langfei, who had retreated to a safe distance, regained their composure and watched the unfolding situation with a cold smirk.
Xu Ziyue and Jiang Muyun, lacking the power to stop the two extraordinary Sea Transformation pinnacle cultivators, could not intervene now without risking a complete break with Cold Extreme Palace.
After all, Cold Extreme Palace was the leading force among the Righteous Path Sects!
It seemed that Shen Feng was destined to be but a fleeting glory, shining just once before quickly vanishing from this world.
Shen Feng naturally felt the two Sea Transformation pinnacle cultivators charging at him. He frowned deeply, finding these nuisances too irksome. He pulled the massive key from the small hole.
Far from receding, his figure surged forward, charging downward.
The two cultivators from Cold Extreme Palace were also approaching, having exited the golden light.
Without hesitation, Shen Feng rapidly infused his Spiritual Energy into the massive black key and, with a forceful throw, sent it hurtling towards the head of the leading Sea Transformation pinnacle cultivator.
Because the black key was extremely heavy, and with the added impetus of Shen Feng's strength, its speed was incomparably fast, with no energy emitting from it, as it was all covertly contained.
The cultivator in the lead, seeing the tip of the black key appear in front of his face in an instant, had no time to dodge. He concentrated all his power into his palm at the fastest speed, refusing to believe that his Peak Sea Transformation cultivation couldn't block the key.
Reality is always brutal!
With a "puchi!"
After the black key pierced through his palm, another "puchi!" followed, penetrating his head directly.
The cultivator behind him, thinking that the black key would be blocked, revealed endless terror on his face when he saw the key emerging from the back of the head of the person in front, and he desperately tried to dodge.
But he was a beat too slow, and with a "puchi!" amid boundless horror, the black key pierced through his head just the same.
The massive black key, skewering two heads, looked like two quails' eggs strung on a bamboo stick.
With a "bang!"
Ultimately, the massive black key was driven into the ground, and everyone witnessing the heads impaled on the shaft of the key felt a chill run down their spines!
