Chapter 292: Killing Qin Yu

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Su Chen, you…” Qin Li suddenly raised his head.

To his surprise, a terrifying longsword had suddenly enlarged in his pupils, leaving him no chance to react.

This was reminiscent of his earlier attack on Huo Xi, with one crucial difference: this time, it was Su Chen who was on the offensive.

Boom!

As the sword descended, the surrounding space distorted, emitting destructive ripples. The land below turned into an expansive ocean, and colossal waves soared into the sky, dispersing the clouds above. It felt like an apocalyptic calamity, sweeping across hundreds of miles.

One by one, the nearby mountains collapsed, and in an instant, the landscape was transformed into chaos.

Some of the experts near the battlefield were sent flying, and even when they were six to seven hundred miles away, they still felt the frigid gusts of wind cutting their skin like knives.

“Is this Su Chen’s true strength?” someone muttered as they witnessed the scene, struggling to believe it. With just one strike, everything within hundreds of miles had been obliterated.

Facing this devastating attack, none of the Quasi-Saint Realm experts present had the confidence to defend themselves. The power of this strike was terrifying.

“What we’ve just seen… Is this Su Chen’s real power?”

They could hardly believe what they were seeing. With just one strike, everything within hundreds of miles was destroyed, leaving nothing behind.

Facing this attack, none of the Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouses present had any confidence in resisting. This attack was simply too terrifying!

Not to mention, Su Chen’s previous strike had caught them completely off guard. If nothing unexpected happened, Qin Li might not have even left a trace behind.

“Now, even the older generation of experts will fear Su Chen, let alone the younger generation! Now, it seems that only some towering figures can truly stand on an equal footing with Su Chen.”

A Quasi-Saint Realm expert remarked with a bitter smile. He didn’t want to admit it, but the truth was undeniable. Su Chen’s display of power today had already surpassed many others. Furthermore, it was essential to remember that he was only in the middle stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm. If he progressed to the late stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm or even reached its peak stage, there was no telling how formidable he would become.

“Sometimes, I genuinely envy the Great Mystery Sacred Sect,” Sui Shang of the Dasui Empire mumbled, watching Su Chen’s retreating figure with mixed emotions. Although the Dasui Empire was a major empire with a Great Emperor Realm expert in its heyday, when they encountered a peerless prodigy, they would still invest heavily in nurturing them. Unfortunately, figures like Su Chen had not emerged within the Dasui Empire’s sphere of influence.

As time passed, approximately fifteen minutes later, a beam of light shot up from the ravaged ground. The moment it appeared, it swiftly headed toward the distant horizon.

“He survived?” Su Chen was somewhat surprised as he gazed at the radiant light.

Before he could say more, he reached out and captured the light in his hand.

“What are you doing, Su Chen?” Qin Li roared loudly, his physical form having already dissipated, leaving only his divine soul behind. However, even his divine soul was feeble at this point, and if he hadn’t had a protective treasure earlier, he would have perished long ago.

“What am 1 doing? Don’t you already know?” Su Chen chuckled and applied slight pressure with his five fingers.

Miserable cries emanated from his palm, sending shivers down the onlookers’ spines.

“Su Chen, he’s a member of the Qin family. If you kill him, you must consider the consequences!” the Spirit Race Patriarch spoke slowly, his expression growing extremely grim.

“Oh? Are you trying to threaten me?” Su Chen slowly turned around, his blue robe fluttering gently, looking untainted, but a chilling smile played on his lips.

“Don’t forget what I said earlier. 1 don’t want to witness instances of the strong bullying the weak. But…” As he spoke, Su Chen glanced at Qin Li’s divine soul. Simultaneously, he exerted slight pressure with his five fingers.

Boom!

A muffled sound echoed. The divine soul power in Su Chen’s hand instantly dissipated.

“This is the outcome of violating the rules!”

Silence.

The entire area fell into absolute silence. Only Su Chen’s words reverberated in the void. As the gentle breeze swept by, Su Chen stood in mid-air, his clothes and hair swaying in the wind, exuding an otherworldly aura. He didn’t make any extravagant moves, just stood there casually, as if he were reigning over the world.

Within a radius of hundreds of miles, countless cultivators dared not make a sound. Even a Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouse from the Qin family had been easily crushed by Su Chen. This left the other Qin family members silent out of fear, not daring to utter a word, let alone issue threats.

Su Chen remained calm, surrounded by Dao runes. His gaze swept over everyone present. Those who met his gaze couldn’t help but avert their eyes. Even the Spirit Race Patriarch, who had earlier provoked Su Chen, chose to look away. As for the Golden Crow Clan and the Infinite Demon Sect, they had retreated to a safe distance. This wasn’t their stronghold, and continuing to provoke Su Chen would be tantamount to seeking death.

“Now it appears our previous preparations were somewhat insufficient,” Tang Shui muttered with his head lowered, a resentful expression flickering deep in his eyes. However, he dared not let Su Chen notice, so he could only contemplate in his heart how to deal with Su Chen.

Before the Prodigy Gathering, their Infinite Demon Sect had secretly formed an alliance with the Dashang Empire, the Golden Crow Clan, the Qin family, and several other powers. Dozens of Quasi-Saint Realm experts had planned to deal with Su Chen together. The plan was meticulous, seemingly flawless. Given Su Chen’s methods, there should have been no escape.

But what they never expected was that Su Chen’s strength was so terrifying. With only middle-stage Quasi-Saint Realm power, he had killed a peak-stage Quasi-Saint Realm expert. This had caught them completely off guard.

Typically, an ordinary cultivator’s strength didn’t change significantly from the initial-stage Quasi-Saint Realm to the middle-stage Quasi-Saint Realm.

However, Su Chen was different. Although he had only broken through a minor realm, his progress was even more astonishing than those who had broken through a major realm.

“Perhaps it’s time to invite a Saint Realm expert,” Tang Shui thought to himself. However, as soon as he uttered those words, he immediately retracted them. He was merely an ordinary elder of the Infinite Demon Sect, without the authority to invite a Saint Realm expert. After all, the Infinite Demon Sect was a genuine sect, not a clan, and had numerous factions within it. Even if all the factions behind him agreed to deal with Su Chen, there would still be those who would obstruct their plans. Moreover, given Su Chen’s current strength and potential, the upper echelons of the Infinite Demon Sect would likely consider reconciling with Su Chen in the future..
