At this moment, Ma Jinshuo had completely lost his mind.

Golden Core cultivators rarely break ties easily, especially since he and Su Nuanyun were both Golden Core elders of the Tianhai Sect. But his son's death made him disregard everything else—his only bloodline was gone, and he wanted revenge!

At the same time, Chen Yang, wearing the God-Shielding Cloak, had already arrived at Su Nuanyun's mountain peak. He rushed to Liu Qingxia's side and was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard Ma Jinshuo's roar in the air. His heart jumped into his throat!

"Oh no! We've stirred up a hornet's nest!" Chen Yang's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly realized, "Ma Jinshuo has pinned this on Su Nuanyun. He thinks Su Nuanyun was the one who killed Ma Wei, and Su Nuanyun hasn't even left Tianhai Gate yet!"

He looked up in horror and saw Ma Jinshuo's figure rushing towards the mountain peak. His terrifying divine sense had sealed off the entire space, so much so that not even a fly could escape!

Chen Yang swallowed hard, his heart filled with despair—this was a Golden Core cultivator! If he really wanted to kill Liu Qingxia, could he withstand it? Absolutely not!

"I'll count to three. If you don't come out by then, I'll collect your disciple's corpse!" Ma Jinshuo's voice was like a death knell, icy and chilling.

"3!"

"2!"

He counted extremely quickly, clearly giving Su Nuanyun no chance to argue or catch her breath, only wanting to force her to show herself.

"1!"

After counting to three, Su Nuanyun still hadn't appeared.

Ma Jinshuo burst into maniacal laughter, his voice filled with violence and murderous intent: "Fine! So, Su Nuanyun! Since you won't come out, then let your disciple be buried with my son!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his entire body suddenly erupted with dazzling golden light, his arms clasped together, and the power of his golden core surged wildly within him! The next moment, the phantom images of his hands expanded rapidly, condensing into a golden laser beam with a diameter of more than ten meters, carrying an aura of destruction, and crashing towards Liu Qingxia's secluded cave!

This is a full-force attack from a Golden Core cultivator, containing the power of the rules of heaven and earth!

The mist array atop the mountain was as fragile as paper before this terrifying attack, shattering completely in an instant without offering any resistance! The golden laser beam, unstoppable, crashed down upon Liu Qingxia's secluded cave!

"not good!"

Chen Yang's heart was in his throat. At this moment, he had no way out and no time to think!

He leaped onto the Ghostflame Lotus and roared, "Ghostflame Lotus, full defense!"

"boom--!"

The Ghost Flame Lotus erupted instantly, billowing black flames surging from its body. Countless flames intertwined and coiled, forming a thick, impenetrable wall that tightly enveloped Chen Yang and Liu Qingxia! This was a top-tier Earth-grade secret treasure, combining offense and defense. Even when facing a fatal blow from a Golden Core cultivator, it unleashed its full power!

"Sizzle sizzle—!"

The golden laser beam struck the wall of black flames, producing a piercing screeching sound. The black flames burned fiercely, desperately resisting the attack.

However, the power of the Golden Core Realm was too terrifying. The wall of flames only lasted for three seconds before it exploded, turning into a sky full of black energy that dissipated into the air.

The golden laser beam continued its relentless attack on Chen Yang and Liu Qingxia!

Chen Yang held Liu Qingxia tightly, his eyes resolute, and his spiritual power surged wildly within him: "Tortoise Shell Divine Power, Absolute Defense Xuan Tortoise Shell, activate!"

"Buzz!"

A golden armor instantly covered Chen Yang and Liu Qingxia's entire bodies. It was the Xuan Turtle Armor Divine Power that he had mastered, and its defensive power was simply heaven-defying!

"boom!"

The golden laser beam slammed into the absolute defensive Xuan Turtle Armor. The enormous impact caused Chen Yang's body to tremble violently, and his spiritual energy was instantly depleted!

At the same time, the golden immortal power stored in his spine rapidly dissolved and transformed into a continuous stream of spiritual power, replenishing the consumption of the absolute defensive armor!

"Snap!"

With a crisp sound, the absolute defense armor on Chen Yang's body was covered with cracks, and then shattered with a bang!

"puff--!"

Chen Yang coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face instantly turning ashen, gasping for breath. He sensed that the Immortal Spine at the base of his spine, which was originally ten centimeters long, had suddenly shrunk to only one centimeter!

Fortunately, although the absolute defense armor was shattered, Ma Jinshuo's terrifying attack was already at its limit, and the remaining attack power was greatly reduced, so it finally failed to harm Liu Qingxia in his arms!

Chen Yang's eyes narrowed, a ruthless glint flashing in them. With a wave of his hand, a long, jet-black staff covered in strange runes instantly appeared in his hand—it was the Ten Thousand Souls Demon-Slaying Staff!

Facing the remaining golden attack, he flicked his wrist and casually slapped the long staff with a whooshing sound!

"clang--!"

A deafening metallic clang rang out as the still-powerful golden attack crashed against an impenetrable wall, repelled by the Ten Thousand Souls Sacrifice Demon Staff and slammed into the mountainside beside it, creating a massive crater several meters deep, sending rocks flying everywhere!

"puff--!"

Chen Yang felt his blood surging in his chest, a sweet taste in his throat, and he spat out another mouthful of blood. His face was as pale as paper, but his eyes were still sharp as knives as he stared intently at Ma Jinshuo in the distance. He then swung the Ten Thousand Souls Sacrifice Demon Staff fiercely at Ma Jinshuo!

"boom!"

A dense black shadow suddenly emerged from the Ten Thousand Souls Sacrifice Demon Staff. The shadow twisted and condensed, transforming into a man dressed in black robes with a sinister face—it was Li Daoran, who was sealed within the staff!

"Go! Hold him off!" Chen Yang pointed angrily at Ma Jinshuo in the distance, his voice hoarse but carrying an unquestionable command, with traces of blood still hanging from the corner of his mouth.

Li Daoran floated out, his brows furrowed, his face full of gloom and impatience—he had been sealed in the staff for a hundred years, and he thought Chen Yang would summon him often, but he didn't expect that this kid had completely forgotten about him! If it weren't for today's life-or-death situation, he would probably still be suffocating in the darkness!

Just as he was about to complain, he suddenly sensed the overwhelming aura of a Golden Core cultivator not far away. His face instantly turned deathly pale, and he staggered back three steps, urgently saying to Chen Yang, "Are you crazy? That's a Golden Core cultivator! I only have 30% of my strength left. Sending me there is just sending me to my death!"

"Go now!" Chen Yang frowned, his eyes icy, his tone carrying a blatant threat. "Otherwise, I'll immediately detonate the core of the Myriad Souls Sacrifice Demon Staff, annihilating your soul and condemning you to eternal damnation!"

"You!" Li Daoran was so angry he was blowing his beard and glaring, pointing a finger at Chen Yang, but he didn't dare to actually disobey—he knew Chen Yang meant what he said. "Sigh! I guess I'm just unlucky!" He stomped his foot angrily, his face full of resentment. "Fine, I'll go, but you have to give me the Myriad Souls Demon-Slaying Staff! Without the support of a magic weapon, I can't withstand three moves from a Golden Core cultivator! If I die then, you won't get away with it either!"

"Enough with the nonsense!" Chen Yang roared, pointing in Ma Jinshuo's direction and urging him sharply, "Go up and fight! I'll give you plenty of benefits afterward!"

Without giving Li Daoran a chance to bargain, he waved his hand and threw out the remaining forty-odd Heavenly Fireball Talismans like a meteor shower!

The mountain was already covered in flying sand and thick smoke from Ma Jinshuo's golden laser beam. Now, with these dozens of talismans detonating simultaneously, a series of earth-shattering explosions occurred!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The continuous explosions shook the mountains and the earth, and the entire mountaintop cracked open as if it had been devoured by a giant beast. Countless boulders weighing thousands of kilograms flew into the air, and the sky was filled with dust like dark clouds, covering the entire main peak. The visibility was less than a meter, and even the sunlight was completely blocked!

Under the cover of billowing dust, Li Daoran gritted his teeth, knowing there was no way to retreat. He suddenly circulated his remaining demonic energy, and black energy surged around him, forming a thick black demonic mist. Within the demonic mist, countless wronged souls could be heard howling. A mental pressure far more terrifying than the pressure of a Golden Core Realm expert rushed towards Ma Jinshuo like a tsunami!

"A mere Golden Core cultivator dares to be so insolent here?" Li Daoran raised his head and puffed out his chest, deliberately lowering his voice to make his tone carry a demonic power that pierced the soul, causing the air to tremble. He glanced contemptuously at Ma Jinshuo, trying to intimidate him with his aura—this was the only thing he could do now!
