The First Venerable of All Paths

"How can you be so strong?"

Su Chongshan looked at Fang Xuan with disbelief on his face.

He is a Qi Gathering Realm expert.

Even though he lowered his cultivation level to enter the secret realm, his cultivation level and combat experience are still far superior to Fang Xuan's.

Now, however, he was severely injured by the opponent's sword.

This is completely unreasonable.

"You've always overestimated yourself."

Fang Xuan, holding a long sword, walked towards Su Chongshan, his eyes flashing with murderous intent.

Su Chongshan had tried to take his life on several occasions.

Now that it's in his hands, Fang Xuan naturally won't show any mercy.

"You little bastard, what are you doing?"

A flicker of panic crossed Su Chongshan's face, and he said in a trembling voice, "You wouldn't dare kill me, would you?"

"As expected of the Su family."

Fang Xuan slowly raised the long sword in his hand and poured his Yuan energy into the blade.

"They all love this condescending attitude!"

Sword energy surged, and a sharp sword light slashed fiercely towards Su Chongshan without any hesitation.

"Who gave you the courage?!"

The sword energy pierced through the air, growing larger and larger in Su Chongshan's horrified eyes.

"Fang Xuan, you're not capable of killing me!"

Faced with a life-or-death crisis, Su Chongshan roared and threw out a golden talisman.

"Golden Armor Talisman, explode!"

The golden talisman exploded, and the golden light condensed into a golden shield, blocking Su Chongshan's path.

Golden Armor Talisman, a defensive talisman.

This talisman is quite valuable and can save your life in a critical moment.

This was something Su Chongshan had to pay a considerable price for.

Although reluctant, Su Chongshan couldn't care less about anything else.

"Snap!"

The sword energy swept across, and the golden shield shattered instantly, not even lasting a moment.

But for Su Chongshan, this amount of time was enough.

Taking advantage of the instant he threw out the talisman, Su Chongshan rolled awkwardly on the ground, quickly creating distance.

"That was close!"

He looked at the sword mark lying on the ground, his face still showing lingering fear.

It was so close.

He died by Fang Xuan's sword.

"You dodged pretty quickly."

Fang Xuan curled his lips and said coldly, "I'd like to see how many swords you can block."

After saying that, Fang Xuan once again slashed at Su Chongshan with his sword.

Su Chongshan still possessed the cultivation of the peak of the Body Refinement Realm; he had only suffered a loss due to carelessness.

just now.

He no longer underestimated Fang Xuan and chose not to confront him head-on.

With his internal energy circulating, Su Chongshan stomped his foot on the ground, using the terrain to avoid Fang Xuan's attack.

Even so, Fang Xuan's attacks became increasingly fierce and swift, keeping Su Chongshan at a disadvantage.

"Kid, you can't kill me."

Su Chongshan sneered, "Your cultivation is inferior to mine. With such a reckless attack, your Yuan energy should be almost depleted, right? How long can you hold out?"

Fang Xuan casually unleashed a sword strike, its power significantly reduced compared to before.

"Has the elemental energy been depleted?"

Upon seeing this, Su Chongshan immediately let out a sinister grin.

"Kid, it's my turn now!"

Then, Su Chongshan crouched low and charged towards Fang Xuan like a ferocious beast.

With a flick of his hand, thunderous sounds erupted.

Martial arts technique: Thunderclap Palm!

This time, Su Chongshan's speed was extremely fast.

He had waited too long for this moment, and he was ready to deliver a fatal blow to Fang Xuan.

Fang Xuan seemed to be exhausted and unable to deal with Su Chongshan's attack, so he had no choice but to temporarily avoid the brunt of the attack.

"Just as I expected!"

Su Chongshan was three points faster.

"You've reached the end of your rope; this is where you'll meet your demise!"

Su Chongshan crossed his hands, then quickly separated them. The violent palm wind, condensed from Yuan energy, first deflected Fang Xuan's longsword, then slammed into Fang Xuan's chest.

This scene, though described slowly, actually happened in the blink of an eye.

Just as Su Chongshan's palm strike was about to land on Fang Xuan, a cold smile suddenly appeared on Fang Xuan's lips.

"Bang!"

At the critical moment, Fang Xuan's body flashed with purple light, activating his Chaotic Saint Body, and he used his physical body to withstand Su Chongshan's palm strike.

Su Chongshan felt as if his palm strike had hit a boulder, unable to budge the opponent in the slightest.

"Were you faking it just now?"

Su Chongshan's expression changed drastically, and he realized that Fang Xuan had been feigning weakness to lure him in.

Realizing he had fallen into a trap, Su Chongshan was about to retreat when a fist containing extreme killing power slammed into his abdomen.

Killing Path King Fist!

The second move: Killing Might Shatters the Mountain!

"Pfft!"

Su Chongshan's eyes bulged out, and he was sent flying backward as if struck by lightning.

Fang Xuan did not stop there and immediately pressed forward.

With a chilling aura emanating from the blue water sword in his hand, he slashed fiercely toward the man's neck.

This sword strike was intended to take Su Chongshan's life.

Su Chongshan was in mid-air when his internal meridians were shattered.

Faced with Fang Xuan's deadly sword strike, there was no room to dodge.

"Pfft!"

The sword fell, and the corpse was severed from its head!

"thump!"

Blood splattered, and a head rolled to the ground, its eyes wide open, dying with its eyes still open.

Su Chongshan has fallen!

"Whoosh!"

After killing Su Chongshan, Fang Xuan himself was also greatly depleted.

After all, the opponent still possessed the cultivation level of the Body Refinement Realm Perfection, and had extremely rich combat experience.

If Fang Xuan hadn't feigned weakness to lure his opponent into a trap, he might not have been able to kill him in a direct confrontation.

"Fang Xuan, you...you killed my second uncle?"

Not far away, Su Yang witnessed Fang Xuan kill Su Chongshan, and his face was full of shock.

"As you can see."

Fang Xuan smiled coldly: "You're next!"

"You dare!"

Su Yang turned and ran, shouting fiercely, "If you kill me, the Su family will never let you get away with it!"

"I have no intention of letting the Su family off the hook either!"

Filled with murderous intent, Fang Xuan drew his sword and charged towards Su Yang.

"thump!"

Just then, a figure crashed down in front of Fang Xuan.

It was Fang Danian!

At this moment, Fang Danian was covered in injuries and his breath was weak.

Clearly, he was at a complete disadvantage in his fight against Su Mian.

"Big brother!"

Seeing Su Mian approaching, Su Yang quickly went to greet her and said, "Fang Xuan killed my second uncle!"

"What?"

Su Mian's expression changed. She glanced at Su Chongshan's corpse not far away, then looked at Fang Xuan, her face immediately turning ashen.

"Fang Xuan, I originally intended to spare your life out of consideration for the long-standing friendship between our two families, but unfortunately you don't know how to cherish it."

Su Mian said indifferently, "Today, you stole my opportunity and killed my second uncle. You must pay with your life!"

"Young Master, you must leave quickly! I'll hold them off!"

Fang Danian struggled to his feet and stood in front of Fang Xuan.

"Yes, young master, you must leave immediately!"

Fang Wen shielded Fang Xuan behind him and said, "Even if it costs them their lives, they won't be able to harm you in the slightest."

"You're all barely able to save yourselves, and you still want to protect that little bastard Fang Xuan?"

Su Yang sneered, "If you know what's good for you, I advise you to surrender."

Fang Xuan raised an eyebrow.

Just as Su Yang said.

Fang Danian and his men were all seriously injured and had no strength left to fight.

On the contrary, Su Mian and the others still maintained abundant Yuan energy.

No matter how you look at it, he doesn't have much of a chance of winning.

"Fang Xuan, I can give you two choices."

Su Yang looked at Fang Wen and the others, and said in a chilling tone, "If you kill a few of them, I might consider sparing your life; otherwise, kneel down and kowtow, and then cripple your own cultivation, and I will let them go."

"The choice is yours."

After saying that, Su Yang burst into laughter.

He not only wanted to humiliate Fang Xuan, but also to kill him and destroy his spirit.

Letting the Fang family kill each other is even more satisfying than killing Fang Xuan directly.

"Young Master, don't trust him!"

Fang Danian said, "Su Yang is a complete bastard, a despicable and shameless person. He's just trying to sow discord."

"right!"

Fang Wen gritted his teeth and said, "Young Master, we will do our best to hold them off in a moment. You should find a chance to leave as soon as possible."

"Su Yang, don't embarrass yourself with such low-level tactics."

Fang Xuan lightly stroked the blade with his finger.

"And do you really think you have victory in the bag?"

Upon hearing this, Su Yang was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Fang Xuan, even now, can't you see the situation clearly?"

Su Yang sneered, "With all of you severely injured trash, what do you think you can do to fight against the Su family?"

"Alright, that's enough of the nonsense."

Su Mian said expressionlessly, "It's time to send them on their way."

"Tsk, are they planning to gang up on us?"

Just then, a mocking voice reached everyone's ears.

"Mind if I join in the fun too?"

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look.

Each of them showed a different expression.

"Li Tianjiao!"

Su Yang said in a deep voice, "Why are you here?"

"What? This secret realm belongs to the Su family, and I can't come?"

Li Tianjiao was sitting on a tree branch, rolling his eyes at Su Yang.

Then, Li Tianjiao looked at Fang Xuan and smiled sweetly.

"Brother Fang Xuan, do you need any help?"

Li Tianjiao swung his legs and said with a smile, "As long as you say the word, I'll kill all these annoying guys."

"Li Tianjiao, what do you mean?"

Su Yang's expression changed, and he said angrily, "Do you intend to interfere in the affairs between the Su family and the Fang family?"

"If you like to think this way, then so be it."

Li Tianjiao curled his lip and said with a look of disgust, "Anyway, I've always disliked your Su family."

"you......"

Su Yang was about to speak when Su Mian stopped him.

"Li Tianjiao, are you sure you want to stand up for Fang Xuan?"

Su Mian said indifferently, "Don't make the wrong choice because of a momentary impulse."

"Are you trying to teach me how to do things?"

Li Tianjiao's pretty face turned cold, and she said without any politeness, "Now, I'm giving you two choices: either get out of here, or die!"

"Li Tianjiao, don't go too far!"

Su Yang coldly retorted, "Do you really think we wouldn't dare kill you?"

"This is a secret realm trial. Even if you die here, your Li family won't dare to cause us any trouble."

Trials in secret realms: life and death are your own responsibility.

This was a rule jointly established by the three factions before entering the secret realm.

No one can disobey it.

"Then let's give it a try."

Li Tianjiao clapped his hands, and several figures emerged from the dense forest; they were the other martial artists from the Li family.

In an instant, the situation reversed.

"Li Tianjiao, what good will this do you?"

Su Yang's face was extremely grim, and he said in a deep voice, "There's only one secret realm. Even without us, do you think Fang Xuan would give it to you?"

"That's none of your business."

Li Tianjiao looked at Fang Xuan and said, "Brother Fang Xuan, shall we fight?"

Before Fang Xuan could speak, he heard Su Mian suddenly sneer.

"Great, very good."

Su Mian clapped her hands and said, "Since you've chosen to join forces, don't blame us for being impolite!"

After saying that, a talisman appeared in Su Mian's hand, which he forcefully threw out.

"Boom!"

In an instant, a violent teleportation force burst forth from the talisman.

Upon seeing this, Li Tianjiao's pretty face changed.

"This is... a teleportation talisman?"
