The First Venerable of All Paths

"A formation?"

Staring at the bursting crimson chains, Kuang Yao was first taken aback, then smiled calmly: "How laughable, daring to use a magic array in front of my Mad Lion Mercenary Group?"

"Form ranks and hack them to death!"

As soon as Kuang Yao finished speaking, more than a dozen members of the Mad Lion Mercenary Group gave a cold shout and stood in their designated positions.

"Form a Berserker Blade Formation and kill him!"

These mercenaries, each wielding a long sword, formed a formidable sword formation by connecting their elemental energy.

"It's the Mad Lion Mercenary Group's Mad Blade Formation!"

Exclamations rang out, clearly indicating that the magic array had been recognized.

"I've heard that this Mad Blade Formation is a fourth-grade formation. The more people there are, the stronger the formation becomes. The Mad Lion Mercenary Group has used this formation to kill many wild beasts in the Sunset Wasteland. I don't know if it's true or not."

"Of course it's true."

Someone said, "I saw it with my own eyes when I was training in the Sunset Wasteland, it can't be fake."

"In that case, that kid is in trouble."

Someone gloated, "Even if he has three heads and six arms, he's doomed after killing Vulture Gang Leader and Mad Wolf."

"kill!"

A dozen mercenaries shouted in unison and slashed at Fang Xuan with their long swords.

"Trying to break my formation? How laughable."

Fang Xuan stomped his foot on the ground.

"Buzzing!"

The chains shot out like lightning, cutting through the air.

"Click click click!"

The crimson chains formed by the array patterns easily shattered the blade's light.

All the mercenaries' expressions changed.

"Condensing Madness Blade!"

A mercenary leader shouted and poured all his inner energy into his longsword.

Then a huge long sword appeared out of the void.

The sword was several meters long, and the sharp blade light it emitted left clear marks on the ground.

"cut!"

The team leader's eyes sharpened, and the giant sword slashed down from mid-air, locking onto Fang Xuan and Xiao Zhuzi.

Fang Xuan raised an eyebrow as he watched the giant blade descend upon him.

"Lock the mountain!"

Fang Xuan raised his arm and gently pointed forward with his finger.

Dozens of array-patterned chains roared out and bound the giant sword.

"Snap!"

But it was only for a moment before the array-patterned chains snapped, and the giant sword continued to fall.

Fang Xuan remained calm and pointed again with his finger.

"Trapped at sea!"

More array-patterned chains emerged from the earth, all coiling towards the giant sword.

The giant sword was successfully trapped and could not move at all.

"Brothers, give it your all, he can't hold on much longer!"

The team leader grinned maliciously and said, "Kill this brat and avenge the Fifth Regiment Commander!"

"Kill them!"

All the mercenaries mobilized all their energy and poured it into the giant sword.

"Snap!"

A chilling blade of light flashed, severing the array-patterned chains once more.

"Kid, die!"

As soon as the array-patterned chains broke, a cold glint flashed in the leader's eyes, and he slashed at Fang Xuan with his sword.

The blade gleamed coldly, radiating killing intent.

Seeing the long sword about to fall on him, Fang Xuan raised his God-Slaying Spear and thrust it forward with lightning speed.

This shot was as sharp as a gazelle's horns, leaving no flaw whatsoever.

Even more impressively, he struck first from behind, piercing the leader's throat with a single shot through the gap in the menacing blade's edge.

"Well......"

The team leader stared wide-eyed, his face filled with fear and regret.

"Bang!"

Fang Xuan twisted his spear, and the killing aura directly shattered the leader's body.

"The team leader is dead!"

The death of their leader startled the remaining mercenaries, who quickly retreated in all directions.

"Are you able to leave?"

Fang Xuan's killing intent grew stronger, and he slammed his spear into the ground.

"Ban!"

Hundreds and thousands of array-patterned chains swept outwards from Fang Xuan, covering an area of ​​several meters in radius.

All the mercenaries were as if sealed off by a barrier, with no way to escape.

"not good!"

Seeing this, Kuang Min, who was in mid-air, raised his palm and pressed it down suddenly.

"Boom!"

The spiritual energy gathered and transformed into a giant hand, which slammed down on the array barriers, attempting to rescue all its subordinates.

"roll!"

Fang Xuan let out a cold shout and thrust his gun forward.

Flames coalesced into a spear, carrying an aura of slaughter, and pierced the palm with unerring accuracy.

"Bang!"

With a muffled thud, the spiritual energy palm exploded.

At the same time, within the array barrier, crimson chains crisscrossed, piercing through the bodies of mercenaries one by one.

In just a few moments, all of the dozen or so mercenaries were killed.

When the array barrier dissipated, apart from Fang Xuan and Xiao Zhuzi still standing, there was only a pile of corpses on the ground.

"Dead?"

"They're all dead!"

Many people stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.

"How did he do that? What kind of formation was that?"

Exclamations of surprise rang out continuously, filled with astonishment and awe.

"A formation master?"

Kuang Yao's expression hardened, and he said in a deep voice, "I thought it would be easy to deal with, but I didn't expect it to be so troublesome."

"Fourth brother, you go."

Kuang Yao said expressionlessly, "This time, it has to be alive."

"Don't worry, Third Brother. Killing him with a single slap would be too easy for him."

Kuang Min cracked his neck, a sinister grin spreading across his face. "The man who killed me, Kuang Shi, I'll teach him a lesson that makes him wish he were dead!"

After saying that, Kuang Min formed a hand seal.

The spiritual energy surged forth, condensing into a spiritual armor around Kuang Min.

"Break the Waves!"

Kuang Min roared and threw a punch at Fang Xuan below.

"Buzz!"

A fist aura, flowing like water, shot out from Kuang Min's fist and smashed towards Fang Xuan.

This punch was far more powerful than any of the previous attacks.

After all, Kuang Min is a powerful expert at the third level of the Divine Will Realm and the fourth leader of the Mad Lion Mercenary Group, so his strength is naturally not bad.

"This time, he probably won't be able to handle it."

Han Yanling crossed her arms and said with a mocking expression, "If you beg me now, I can save your life."

Fang Xuan ignored Han Yanling's words.

He lowered his body slightly, clenched his fist, and threw out a punch as well.

"King's Fist Shakes the World!"

As the fist energy erupted, it immediately burst forth with overwhelming killing intent, tearing apart Kuang Min's fist energy.

Kuang Min took a half step back, his gaze sharp.

Fang Xuan, on the other hand, took four or five steps back.

The body's Qi and blood churn.

"You managed to stand after taking one of my punches, you're actually quite skilled."

Kuang Min licked his lips and chuckled, "But kid, I won't hold back on this punch."

After saying that, Kuang Min formed a hand seal.

The spiritual energy surged in like a tidal wave, transforming into a vast expanse of energy.

Before the attack even landed, a powerful and terrifying aura spread outwards, causing many people to look horrified.

"Such a powerful aura."

The third elder of the Han family said, "Even I can only be considered his equal at best."

"A mere third-level Divine Intent Realm martial artist is nothing in front of my Han family."

Han Yanling scoffed, then looked at the thin figure behind Fang Xuan, a strange glint in her eyes.

"Third Elder, find an opportunity to capture that little girl for me later."

Han Yanling said smugly, "Since he's willing to offend the Mad Lion Mercenary Group for a little bitch, he must have done it for a reason. With her in my hands, I don't believe that guy won't bow his head and submit."

"But......"

"There are no 'buts'."

Han Yanling said imperiously, "Third Elder, this is an order. If you dare to disobey again, don't blame me for not showing any mercy."

"I obey."

The Third Elder sighed, feeling quite helpless.

This young lady has been spoiled rotten. Not only is she lawless, but she also has absolutely no brains.

Since everyone knows that someone would risk their life for a mere maid,

If we really mess with that little girl, who knows what kind of trouble it will cause.

We'll see how things go later. If things really don't work out, we can always leave Sunset Town.

The world is vast, and I, an old man with the cultivation of the Divine Realm, am not unable to go anywhere.

Fang Xuan was unaware of their thoughts.

He gazed at Kuang Min, whose aura was growing stronger, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

"Stay where you are. With me here, no one can hurt you!"

He turned to look at the little bamboo, his tone gentle.

The little bamboo, which had been silent all along, suddenly paused for a moment.

She confirmed it.

She had indeed heard that voice before.

It's just that so much time has passed that she really can't remember.

Then, she shrank back, her voice hoarse and faint.

"You...you be careful."

"Haha, don't worry."

Fang Xuan let out a wild laugh and stood there holding his gun.

"Today, no one can kill me!"

The voices of the youth echoed between heaven and earth, their boundless pride soaring to the heavens.

"Only at the third level of the Divine Intent Realm? Watch me kill him with a single shot!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Xuan stomped his foot on the ground.

The ground suddenly cracked open, and Fang Xuan used the force to soar into the sky.

A green light flowed beneath his feet, and the killing intent emanated endlessly from the God of Slaughter Spear.

"His spear flashes like a divine strike, kill!"

At this moment, Fang Xuan had become one with the God of Slaughter Spear, unleashing a powerful killing move by combining man and spear.

"Your spear intent is not weak, but it's nothing compared to mine!"

Kuang Min sneered and gently pushed forward with his palm.

"Splash!"

The water-like spiritual energy surrounding him transformed into a wall of water, which swept towards Fang Xuan with overwhelming force.

"Waves upon waves!"

The water waves overlap, a high-grade Xuan-level martial art.

This martial art can instantly unleash the full power of spiritual energy.

Destroying mountains and rocks is no problem for them.

However, the moment the water wall touched the spear, it evaporated like snow under the scorching sun, turning into a thick fog.

In the blink of an eye, the entire wall of water vanished.

But the spear, carrying a brutal killing intent, pierced straight through the void and passed right through Kuang Min's body.

"puff!"

Blood splattered, and Kuang Min's body trembled, frozen in place.

He stared at the gaping wound in his chest, a look of horror and fear creeping onto his face.

"I......"

Before Kuang Min could finish speaking, a chilling and sharp aura surged from his meridians, causing him to explode.

"Bang!"

Crimson fireworks burst across the sky and earth, taking the life of a powerful cultivator at the third level of the Divine Intent Realm.

The world was completely silent.

Kuangmin is dead?!

Moreover, he died at the hands of a martial artist in the Qi Condensation Realm.

This unexpected turn of events left even Han Yanling stunned.

"How...how can he be this strong?"

Han Yanling's tone was slightly irritated, and she said in a fit of exasperation, "Third Elder, can you tell what his cultivation level is?"

"At least the third level of divine will, or even higher."

The Third Elder looked grave and said, "Young Miss, we cannot afford to offend this person. Let's abandon those thoughts."

Han Yanling clenched her fists, her face full of resentment.

"Wait a little longer. Kuang Min is dead, but there's still Kuang Yao."

Han Yanling said sternly, "Once they fight to the death, I might have my chance."

The Third Elder covered his forehead.

Damn it.

Did this young lady of the Han family ever get her head caught in a door when she was a child?

That's absolutely foolish!
