Chapter 648: Three Punches
Above the sea of clouds.
When the silver-robed young man appeared, the curly-bearded elder and the mountainous Shuo Meng, both Spiritual Incarnation Realm yao cultivators, stepped to the sides of the carriage.
Su Yi ignored them.
He was already looking at the silver-robed young man, and he could tell at a glance that he was a mid-stage Spiritual Manifestation cultivator.
However, his aura was extremely strange and unfathomable.
He was like a dormant volcano; no one could predict when he would erupt or how great the resulting destruction would be.
But when his gaze shifted to the silver-robed young man’s companion, the woman in yellow skirts, his eyebrows shot up.
Purple eyes and pointed ears, a natural charm… This was obviously a Purple Moon Fox!
Of the fox races, the Purple Moon Foxes, Blue Hill Foxes, and Fire Spirit Foxes were collectively known as the three “Immortal Fox Bloodlines.” They were the greatest of all the fox clans.
The Purple Moon Foxes were born with purple eyes, pointed ears, and natural allure. They were born with an innate divine ability, “Intoxicating Fragrance Bone Corrosion.” It was a peak-level illusion skill, and it was extremely powerful.
The slightest incaution, and even a Buddhist cultivator with a heart as firm as a boulder would sink into an endless illusory landscape manifested of his desires. The illusions would overturn his soul, and his lust would muddle his brain, transforming him into the Purple Moon Fox’s prey. He’d be little more than a puppet she could control as she pleased.
The fur of a Purple Moon Fox is extremely soft and comfortable. Alas, it's tainted with a naturally seductive fragrance. Otherwise, I could put it over my wicker chair,?thought Su Yi. He couldn’t help but find it a pity.
Had the others present known what he was thinking, their jaws might well have fallen off from sheer astonishment.
What kind of person thought about his wicker chair at a time like this!?
“My good sir, your combat prowess is indeed heaven-defying. It’s obvious at a glance that you’re extraordinary. Might I ask your honorable name and surname, and who your master is?”
The silver-robed youth’s voice emanated from near the distant carriage.
So many of his subordinates had just been killed, but it was as if he didn’t even notice. He even had a leisurely grin on his lips.
This was a display of utter confidence and contempt.
Su Yi had never liked wasting words, and he naturally couldn’t be bothered to do so now. Instead, he got directly to the point. “What I said earlier still applies. Leave the dirty beast behind, and you can leave here alive.”
The silver-robed young man paused, stunned. Then, he couldn’t help but laugh. He glanced at the Molten Gold Lion and said, “Look at that! In his eyes, you’re worth more than all our lives put together.”
The Molten Gold Lion said in a quavering voice, “My lord, that whelp is obviously just doing this as an affront to your dignity! You cannot fall for his tricks!”
“Then what do you think I ought to do?” asked the young man.
The Molten Gold Lion instantly exploded with killing intent. “You ought to pluck his tendons, skin him, cut out his heart and liver, drink his blood, devour his meat, and refine his soul!”
Just hearing this left every human expert’s heart quivering with fright.?What a brutal way of thinking!
“An excellent idea!” praised the beast’s master. He fixed his gaze on the distant Su Yi once more, then said, “But I can offer you a different choice, my good sir. So long as you choose to submit to me…”
Before he could finish, Su Yi shook his head and interrupted him. “That nonsense again? You really are noisy.”
As he spoke, his clothing swayed around him. He stepped forth, raised his hand, and slashed.
Whoosh!
Sword qi sliced through the sea of clouds, radiant and graceful.
Both the human experts and the yao cultivators were at a loss for words.
Neither Su Yi’s enemies nor his allies had anticipated that he’d be so direct; it seemed he couldn’t be bothered to even converse, and that he was pressed for time.
Looking at it another way, Su Yi didn’t care in the slightest that his opponent was the Holy Son of the Holy Church of the Caterpillar!
The silver-robed young man’s expression instantly darkened.?How frenzied is this guy?
“Impudent!” bellowed the curly-bearded elder. He swung his drumstick and whacked the air.
His drumstick was fully three feet long and as thick as a child’s arm. It was snowy white, and it was his natal spirit treasure. He called it the Heaven-Startling Mallet.
A single swing could shake the heavens, move the earth, and make even gods and ghosts cry.
Combined with the elder’s early-stage Spiritual Incarnation Realm cultivation, this attack left the surrounding skies trembling. The air currents wailed and exploded.
However, the moment it collided with Su Yi’s slash——
Bang!!!
A thunderous impact rang out. The curly-bearded elder felt as if he’d clashed with a primordial divine mountain. That terrifying power made him stagger, and he was forced several steps back.
A series of cracks and crunching noises emanated from this Heaven-Startling Mallet.
A startling sword scar had appeared on its snowy surface. A large chunk of it was missing!
This was his natal spirit treasure, so its damage affected the curly-bearded elder, too. His blood and qi flowed in reverse, and he couldn’t help but cough up blood.
One slash, and Su Yi injured a mighty yao of the Spiritual Incarnation Realm!!
A series of gasps rang out on Pinewave Plateau. Meng Jinghai, Gu Shandu, and the other Spiritual Incarnation Realm existences couldn’t help but widen their eyes. They were utterly astonished.
It was already unbelievable that Su Yi could cross Daos to slay Spiritual Manifestation cultivators with such ease.
Yet now, one attack, and he’d dealt a mighty Spiritual Incarnation Realm yao cultivator a heavy blow. Of course they were startled! Of course they were terrified!
“So strong!!”
Shuo Meng’s expression shifted. He now looked utterly grave.
The young woman in yellow said nervously, “My lord, he’s too strong. How about… How about we retreat?”
“Hmph!” The silver-robed young man snorted coldly, then said calmly, “All of you, step back! I’ll take care of him!”
As he spoke, he shot through the air.
Boom!
Dark light soared out of the silver-robed young man’s body, and his long hair fluttered around him. His light amber eyes were suddenly cold and serene.
Serpentine dragons of black lightning revolved around him, bursting with an aura of destruction. Heaven and earth changed color.
Although his aura was “merely” that of the mid-stage Spiritual Manifestation Realm, his momentum made even Spiritual Incarnation Realm cultivators like Meng Jinghai and Gu Shandu sense an enormous threat. Their expressions shifted dramatically.
There was no doubt about it. The Holy Son of the Holy Church of the Caterpillar was an extremely terrifying existence!
“This lofty one left seclusion one month ago. I’ve always disdained to kill my enemies personally.” The silver-robed young man locked onto Su Yi from afar. “I must say, you’re rather fortunate to die by my hand. This way, you can go to the Nine Springs with a smile on your face.”
The corners of Su Yi’s lips twitched imperceptibly.?This kid… Sure talks a lot!
Whoosh!
Su Yi stepped forth, stretched out his finger, and tapped.
The cold glint of a sword’s edge lit up the sky, transformed into a streak of clear sword qi, and slashed at the silver-robed young man.
“Reckless and foolhardy!” The silver-robed young man swung his fist.
A raging, explosive fist imprint condensed out of black lightning and slammed down with a bang.
The surrounding skies trembled, seemingly unable to bear its power.
Crunch!
It severed Su Yi’s sword qi, splitting it in half.
The onlookers were astonished. Since the battle began, this was the first time anyone had neutralized Su Yi’s attacks head-on!
“Power like that isn’t even worth looking at.” The silver-robed young man examined his fair white hands and said slowly.
Meng Jinghai and the others felt their hearts clench.
They dared say with certainty that if Su Yi hadn’t come here today, all of them combined would have been no match for the silver-robed young man and his subordinates.
There would have been only one possible result: they would have been forced to submit!
Yet now, when they witnessed the silver-robed young man’s terrifying abilities, Meng Jinghai and the others couldn’t help but sweat on Su Yi’s behalf. They were inwardly frantic with anxiety.
All of them realized that the moment Su Yi fell, they’d be in for a calamity too!
“Fellow Daoist Yuan Heng, it seems Brother Su has run into real trouble this time.” Lan Suo was more nervous than ever before.
The power Su Yi had displayed earlier really was enough to make one’s heart swell with emotion. He’d astonished her repeatedly.
But who could remain calm now that the Holy Son of the Holy Church of the Caterpillar had revealed his abilities?
“Trouble?” Yuan Heng’s expression was rife with disdain. “Earlier, there was a guy called Qing Luo. He was even more brazen than this holy caterpillar guy, yet in the end, my master took him down with ease.”
“Oh?” said Lan Suo.?Something like that happened?
“Not worth looking at?” Su Yi laughed from above the sea of clouds and said casually, “Fine, then. I’ll punch just three times. If I cannot suppress you within three punches, consider it my loss.”
As this light, airy declaration echoed through the air, he clenched his hand into a fist, raised his right arm, and—
Boom!!
As Su Yi raised his arm, a tyrannical, forceful, and terrifying fist force spread throughout the sky.
Everything within a thousand feet of sky churned and shook violently with Su Yi at its center.
Hm??The silver-robed young man’s pupils constricted as he sensed the pressure bearing down on him.
His eyes flashed, his qi surged, and he readied himself for battle.
And when Su Yi punched—
Boom!
A dazzlingly radiant clear fist imprint shot forth, like a rainbow arcing through the sun. The skies tore like canvas, forming a perfectly straight rift.
The onlookers felt as if an invisible hammer had struck their minds. Their blood and qi surged, and they saw stars. Their expressions changed dramatically.
What a tyrannical fist!
Even just watching from afar, its sheer momentum shook their hearts and minds!
Over by the ornate carriage, the curly-bearded elder and Shuo Meng were visibly stunned. Their hair stood on end.
Even Spiritual Incarnation experts like them felt helpless and insignificant in the face of this fist. They felt trapped; they could neither run nor hide!
This was unquestionably far too terrifying.
The silver-robed young man’s expression changed, and he could no longer remain calm.
The fist’s momentum far surpassed his initial estimates. He attacked directly, no longer daring to hesitate in the slightest.
“The Profound Yin Lightning Halberd!” bellowed the silver-robed young man.
The dragons of black lightning circling around him suddenly surged forth, condensing into a ten-foot lightning halberd. It?emanated?an appalling destructive aura as he slashed through the air.
When fist and halberd clashed——
Boom!!
Heaven and earth shook amidst the rampaging, destructive currents of energy. It was as if the skies themselves were caving in.
Immediately afterward, beneath the onlookers’ astonished gazes, the lightning halberd exploded, inch by inch.
Su Yi’s unstoppable fist force had destroyed it!
The silver-robed young man’s expression changed once more. He hurriedly condensed a magic seal out of searing lightning flames and used it to defend himself.
However, he was like a mantis trying to block a chariot.
First, the lightning seal shattered with a bang. Then, the silver-robed young man was sent flying explosively backward.
It was as if a primordial divine mountain had slammed into him. While still flying through the air, he coughed up blood. It was only after several hundred meters that he managed to stabilize himself.
When the onlookers saw this, they fell deathly silent. All of them were astonished.
Just one fist, and he’d sent the Holy Son of the Holy Church of the Caterpillar flying!!
This domineering scene shook every last one of them down to their hearts and souls!
When the spectators next looked at the silver-robed youth, they saw that his handsome face had paled, and his expression was brimming with alarm, rage, and disbelief.
