Chapter 604: Chapter 579: Lure and Kill Again
The Tianjiao who struck at him had an extremely burly figure, standing over three meters tall, his body covered in scales, and exuding thick Immortal light.
This was a Tianjiao of the Immortal Clan.
The Immortal Clan Tianjiao had an icy demeanor, a wildness about him, as three Magic Long River Phantoms circled around his body, with three Domains stacking on top of each other, enveloping Lu Yan as he stepped forward, his spear thrusting forward like a dragon toward Lu Yan.
Behind him, a massive war spirit roared and charged, launching a pincer attack with the Immortal Clan Tianjiao.
"Kill."
Lu Yan let out a long howl, his palm striking out to meet them, engaging in fierce battle with the two powerful beings.
Under the joint attack of the two mighty beings, Lu Yan soon found himself ’on the losing end’.
Of course, he was pretending because the watchful gaze hidden in the shadows was constantly there.
That person, who had been skulking all along, had yet to reveal himself.
This person was the most dangerous, exceedingly covert; without dealing with him, there would be a great threat to the vast starry sky.
And then there was the one controlling the war spirit in secret, who also had yet to show up.
Therefore, he could not reveal his true strength just yet.
However, Lu Yan showed great resilience. Despite being at a disadvantage, his defense was impenetrable, making it very difficult for the Immortal Clan Tianjiao and the massive war spirit to take him down easily.
It seemed Lu Yan was their prime target, so aside from the massive war spirit and the Immortal Clan Tianjiao, the majority of war spirits also lunged toward Lu Yan, with only a few surrounding Zhang Xinru.
Zhang Xinru’s pressure, on the other hand, was significantly less.
"You will not kill me."
Lu Yan feigned an angry roar and began charging frantically to one side, as if he were preparing to flee for his life.
With Lu Yan’s abilities, he was naturally very powerful when attempting to escape, forcing the massive war spirit to retreat step by step.
Just when it appeared that Lu Yan was about to break through the encirclement,
suddenly, the light around Lu Yan brightened sharply.
A purple radiance suddenly fell from above Lu Yan’s head.
Danger.
Lu Yan instinctively felt the danger.
The source of the danger came from the radiance above his head.
"Finally here."
Lu Yan, who had been waiting for a long time, instantly spread out his Five Elements Field, like a protective shield enveloping him within.
The radiance from above was blocked by the Five Elements Field.
Next, the Five Elements Field trembled, and a powerful force burst forth.
With a loud bang, a figure retreated explosively backward.
This figure was blurred, like a wisp of rosy light, twisting and writhing in the air, about to vanish into the void.
"The Light Clan, indeed it’s the Guan Clan, no wonder they’re so well hidden."
A thought flashed through Lu Yan’s mind.
The Light Clan, known as incarnations of light, could merge with light wherever there was light, blending into it, becoming formless and untraceable.
"Now that you’ve revealed yourself, you still want to escape?"
Lu Yan scoffed, pressing his right hand forward as the Five Elements Field expanded rapidly, enveloping the Light Clan’s Tianjiao within it.
Then, inside the Five Elements Field, a terrible force emerged, pressing down on the other party.
Amid the twisting light, the young man from the Light Clan could no longer hide and appeared.
This was a pale-faced young man.
The Light Clan youth struggled to break free, but it was futile.
"Attack together, kill him."
The Light Clan youth let out a fearful shout, as multicolored radiance appeared around his body, countless rays of light shooting toward Lu Yan.
Every ray was a terrifying attack, and in a moment, it seemed as if numerous arrows were shooting toward Lu Yan.
At the same time, the massive war spirit and the Immortal Clan Tianjiao also launched an offensive against Lu Yan.
"There’s another who controls the war spirits and hasn’t shown himself yet, but this will suffice."
Lu Yan’s eyes were cold as he charged against the tide, breaking through the countless rays of light. With a grab of his hand, the force of the Five Elements Field moved with him, seizing the Light Clan youth by the throat.
"You..."
The Light Clan youth’s face filled with terror.
As a Dual Primebody, he had no power to resist Lu Yan at all.
Lu Yan’s combat capability was unbelievably formidable.
He finally understood that Lu Yan had been pretending all along, not using his full strength, with the purpose of forcing his opponent to reveal himself.
But now it was too late for realizations.
Lu Yan’s palm, as if containing the power of the world, crushed down with terrifying force. With a sound, the Light Clan youth exploded into dust, dissipating into a wisp of rosy light.
"Hm? Trying to escape?"
The Light Clan youth was not dead yet; a sliver of his Primordial Spirit, merging with a beam of light, tried to flee.
"Soul Heaven Calming Chaos Skill."
A thought flashed in Lu Yan’s mind, and his Primordial Spirit shone brightly. A powerful soul force, manifesting as a giant python, shot out into the void, gobbling up the remaining soul of the Light Clan youth.
"No..."
The Light Clan youth let out a terrified howl before vanishing completely.
At this point, the Immortal Clan Tianjiao felt a chill in his heart, his body going cold.
He finally realized that Lu Yan had hidden his true strength earlier.
He was well aware of the Light Clan youth’s strength.
Although he could defeat the Light Clan youth if he fought with all his might, it would be difficult for him to keep the youth from escaping.
But in Lu Yan’s hands, the Light Clan youth was powerless and easily killed.
Such combat strength was beyond his ability to contend with.
He leaped backward, fleeing toward the valley’s exterior.
"Thinking of leaving now? It’s too late."
Lu Yan’s chilling voice rang out as the Five Elements Field rapidly expanded, enveloping the Immortal Clan Tianjiao within it.
The Immortal Clan Tianjiao summoned his full strength to push his own Domain in opposition.
However, his Domain could only withstand the Five Elements Field for an instant before collapsing. The next moment, the Immortal Clan Tianjiao was covered by the Five Elements Field.
Roars echoed as he underwent a drastic transformation, morphing into a Qilin with nine heads.
The Nine-headed Qilin.
Lu Yan was slightly stunned, his killing intent intensified, and he said, "Turns out it’s a descendant of that old Immortal Ancestor, deserving of death."
Whoosh!
As his words fell, Lu Yan had already transformed into a blade of light, slashing towards the Tianjiao of the Immortal Clan.
In an instant, the blade of light shattered the heavens.
The Tianjiao of the Immortal Clan roared through his nine heads, each spewing out nine streams of radiance, turning into nine types of Great Tao Skills, bombarding Lu Yan.
At the same time, he pushed his formidable power to the pinnacle.
Three fields overlaid, surging into his long spear.
Three Magic Long River Phantoms merged with the long spear as well.
He thrust the spear with all his might.
Boom, boom, boom...
A thunderous explosion erupted, the Tianjiao’s nine Great Tao Skills, in the face of Lu Yan’s blade light, collapsed at a touch.
The blade light fell, shattering in an instant.
In the end, the blade light collided with the long spear.
Ring after ring of terrifying energy waves scattered in all directions.
The weaker battle spirits burst on the spot, turning to dust and smoke.
Zhang Xinru was also affected, her body reversing course in flight, crashing into the wall again, spitting blood.
Crack!
A sound like breaking metal came from the long spear of the Tianjiao of the Immortal Clan.
His long spear developed dense cracks and then exploded with a pop.
The deadly blade light descended, bloodlight erupted, and the Nine-headed Qilin was split in two, the horrific destructive blade light rampaging through its body, eroding its vitality.
The Nine-headed Qilin wasn’t dead yet, it roared, trying to recover.
Lu Yan’s blade light swept across.
Pu pu pu...
Nine heads were severed, bursting in the blade light; even his Primordial Spirit dissipated in the blade light.
A formidable Tertiary Initial Body was thus effortlessly slain by Lu Yan.
Back during the Sky Fantasy Tower assessment, facing a Tertiary Initial Body, it was not easy for Lu Yan to emerge victorious, taking quite an effort, even fighting hundreds of moves.
But Lu Yan was no longer the same as before.
At that time, Lu Yan’s Cultivation Level was merely at the Tao Sixth Layer Early Stage.
But now, he had reached the Tao Seventh Layer Peak.
His strength had increased by far too much.
Not to mention the fusion of eight fields, and the creation of the Sky Annihilation move.
Lu Yan hadn’t even used these two methods just now.
Because there was no need.
"There’s one more."
Lu Yan’s gaze was lightning-like as he turned towards that enormous battle spirit.
The giant battle spirit was hurriedly running towards the outside of the canyon.
Whoosh!
Lu Yan gave chase, then executed the Soul Heaven Calming Chaos Skill, this time not morphing into a python but transforming into a battle saber, slashing out.
Whoosh!
The battle saber precisely cleaved into the soul fire within the battle spirit.
That strand of soul fire extinguished with a puff.
The moment the soul fire went out, a weak soul fluctuation came from ten or so miles away.
"Found you."
Lu Yan shot out like a bolt of lightning towards the location from where the soul fluctuation had come.
Ten or so miles away, a woman in a black robe, pale-faced, turned around and ran, frantically rushing towards the distance.
However, her speed was far inferior compared to Lu Yan’s.
And for people at their level, ten or so miles was practically within arm’s reach.
Even in the True Meteor Realm, it was the same.
Just a few breaths later, Lu Yan was already close to the woman.
"Split Soul."
The woman shouted softly, and her body split apart, becoming nine, flying in nine different directions.
"So it’s the Ancestral Soul Clan."
A thought crossed Lu Yan’s mind.
The Ancestral Soul Clan was an extremely terrifying race, even more dreadful than the Light Clan.
Born with exceptionally powerful souls, within their clan, special soul practitioners were abundant.
They were adept at Soul Attacks, killing invisibly.
They were also skilled at soul manipulation.
In the Origin Continent and the infinite starry sky, most of the methods and treasures for defending against soul attacks were created to counter the Ancestral Soul Clan.
The Ancestral Soul Clan woman, split into nine, each one real, neither an avatar nor an illusion.
As long as one escaped, she could survive and later recover.
This method granted her a terrifying ability to escape death.
Unfortunately, she had encountered Lu Yan.
"Soul Heaven Calming Chaos Skill."
Lu Yan uttered softly, his powerful soul morphing into nine battle sabers, flying out and slashing.
"No..."
The Ancestral Soul Clan woman let out a resentful scream as all nine bodies burst open, completely annihilated.
Lu Yan stretched out his hand and grasped through the air, capturing three Sumi Mustard Seed Bags in his hand.
Those battle spirits, now uncontrolled by anyone from the Ancestral Soul Clan, seeing Lu Yan and the others, actually continued to roar and pounce at them.
Lu Yan couldn’t be bothered to entangle with them.
That giant battle spirit contained the imprint of an exceedingly powerful being, extremely difficult to annihilate completely; to tangle with it was merely a waste of energy.
With a few flashes, Lu Yan arrived beside Zhang Xinru, enveloped her with the power of the Doctrine, and swiftly left the canyon with her. Not long after, the giant battle spirit was lost without a trace.
