Swordholder

They were filled with resentment, anger, and fear, and could only desperately try to withstand the relentless and terrifying sword attacks, suffering defeat after defeat.

During a lull in the fierce battle, Chen Yuan's gaze suddenly swept towards the ruins below, his pupils narrowing slightly.

In the heart of the devastated ruins, a semi-circular golden aura of psionic energy rises and shines brightly!

Song Qingxue sat cross-legged in the center, her eyes closed, her body filled with spiritual energy, and above her head floated a dark palace phantom, with strands of white spiritual consciousness surging like waves and continuously flowing into the palace phantom!

The soul enters the palace, the spirit returns to its abode!

This is a sign of breaking through to the second level of the Purple Mansion Realm—the Concentration Realm!

Song Tianwen sat upright behind her, his eyes sharp, protecting her throughout the process and continuously supplying her spiritual energy to stabilize her breakthrough opportunity!

"Song Qingxue! How dare you break through at this critical moment?!"

Chen Yuan's voice shook the sky and resounded throughout heaven and earth!

Song Tianwen suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze flashing with cold light, and shouted in a deep voice, "Seniors! Hold him off at all costs!"

Once Qingxue breaks through to the Concentration Realm, the four of us joining forces will surely be able to kill him!

He placed both palms on Song Qingxue's shoulders, stabilizing her injuries while giving her all to help her break through the barrier of her cultivation realm!

"Hahaha! I'm already here. She wants to break through? What a pipe dream!"

Chen Yuan laughed wildly, his voice like thunder, shaking the void endlessly!

Within the halo below, Song Qingxue's mind was shaken violently, her energy flowed in reverse, and she suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood, her breakthrough rhythm instantly thrown into chaos!

"Qingxue, hold on!"

Song Tianwen's face darkened, and he sternly instructed, "Either break through the barrier in one go, or give up immediately and I'll lead you to escape!"

He was deeply shocked.

After a fierce battle during the day, Song Qingxue, filled with boundless hatred, completely broke through the bottleneck in her cultivation realm. She was only one step away from entering the Concentration Realm. This opportunity was once in a thousand years!

But he never expected that Chen Yuan would be so crazy, disregarding the consequences, and chasing him here overnight!

This young man is by no means reckless, but rather decisive and courageous!

Offending the Song family and confronting official power head-on, instead of avoiding their sharp edge, they took the initiative to come to their door and wipe them out.

This is utterly rebellious and utterly unscrupulous!

"I'm not leaving!"

Song Qingxue shook her head violently, her eyes bloodshot, her face contorted with rage and boundless hatred.

"I will forge my path with hatred and break through realms with murderous intent!"

"Today I will enter the Concentration Realm and personally tear this fiend apart, avenging the crushing defeat I suffered due to my negligence this day!"

Song Tianwen's eyes darkened, and he made a decision in an instant, roaring sharply: "Everyone, listen to my command! Form the ultimate killing formation!"

"Stop Chen Yuan at all costs and hold Qingxue back from her breakthrough!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes narrowed, and he secretly shattered a top-secret talisman!

The remaining members of the Song family pulled out their magic pills and gulped them down!

The pill entered his body, and black demonic energy instantly swept over him!

The crowd's eyes were filled with dark demonic light, their muscles bulged and tore their clothes, their bodies deformed, and they transformed into ferocious humanoid beasts such as bulls, black wolves, cheetahs, and black tigers, their murderous aura soaring and their ferocity increasing several times over!

"roar----!!"

A deafening roar echoed in all directions!

Countless mutated ferocious beasts leaped into the air, soaring hundreds of meters into the air, fearless of death, and frantically pounced on Chen Yuan in mid-air!

Although he lacked the cultivation level of the Purple Mansion, after undergoing the transformation into a demon, his combat power far surpassed that of ordinary Yellow Court cultivators, enough to disrupt the battle in the air!

"Like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, utterly overestimating one's own strength!"

Chen Yuan sneered as he moved nimbly, his Blood Bone Sword flashing and twisting, its crimson sword energy piercing through the heavens and earth!

hiss hiss hiss —

In the blink of an eye, more than ten humanoid beasts that had pounced on them were all cleaved in two!

Blood splattered across the sky, and corpses fell into the ruins!

"You bitch, do you think you're the protagonist in a novel? Breaking through at the last minute and turning the tide?"

Chen Yuan burst into the air, laughing wildly, his arrogant and violent aura overwhelming the entire audience!

He single-handedly controlled two great dantians, slaughtering the hordes of ferocious beasts with a mere wave of his hand. His voice, booming like thunder, slammed into Song Qingxue's ears: "Song Qingxue, you dog of a woman, eat shit!"

The thunderous explosions shook Song Qingxue's mind and spirit, and the backlash from her injuries worsened!

"Wow!"

Several more mouthfuls of blood spurted out, making the breakthrough opportunity increasingly chaotic!

"Chen Yuan!! If I break through to the next level, I will skin you alive to vent my anger!!"

Song Qingxue gritted her teeth, her hatred reaching its very core.

"Qingxue, hold on!"

Song Tianwen encouraged him in a deep voice, "As long as you break through to the Condensation Realm now, the path to the Purple Mansion will be clear and unobstructed. In the next ten years, you will definitely have a chance to reach the Dao Platform!"

Upon hearing this, Song Qingxue's spirits lifted!

She forcefully suppressed the backlash injuries, closed off her six senses, and focused all her efforts on breaking through the barrier of her cultivation realm.

But at that very moment, in the void above, Chen Yuan's aura surged violently once again!

His skin was covered with layers of blood-red scales, and his five fingers transformed into sharp, towering blood-red claws, revealing his eerie and demonic nature, and his combat power soared to its peak!

Lin Xiao and Lin Dong were already being suppressed by the Human Skin Umbrella Domain, causing their energy to become disordered, their minds to wander, and their weaknesses to be exposed!

Chen Yuan seized the fleeting opportunity, his figure suddenly swooping down to close the distance, his sword aura exploding like thunder!

Clang!

With a ferocious sweep of his sword, he directly cleaved away the two people's protective magic treasures. The sword energy was incomparably sharp, instantly severing their necks!

puff! ! !

Two jets of blood shot into the sky! The two headless, lifeless corpses plummeted to the ground!

Chen Yuan reached out and precisely grasped the two still wriggling, barely conscious heads in his palm!

Lin Xiao and Lin Dong stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with extreme terror. Their remaining consciousness made them vaguely beg for mercy:

"Let...let us go..."

If a cultivator in the Purple Mansion has an intact head and a remaining spiritual consciousness, their body can be reattached and their life preserved.

They can even use evil methods to prolong their remnant souls, even if they transform into evil spirits or demons, at least they are still alive.

But at this moment, Chen Yuan was already bloodthirsty, his heart set on killing as firm as iron, how could he leave any future trouble!

"We'll spare you two old dogs, but what, are you going to keep you alive for the New Year?"

As the cold words fell, the Blood Bone Sword suddenly slashed horizontally!

Two loud bangs!

Both heads were instantly severed!

The remaining soul was instantly extracted, devoured, and sealed by the rotating human skin umbrella above its head, becoming nourishment for the evil umbrella!

Two powerful experts from the Purple Mansion realm of the Falcon Hunting Team perished in grief and indignation!

Their heads were smashed by Chen Yuan, and their souls were devoured by the human skin umbrella.

Chen Yuan slowly descended through the air. With each step, ripples spread across the void beneath his feet, like waves sweeping in all directions. A terrifying killing intent, accompanied by raging winds and waves, crashed down with a deafening roar!

"I've already killed those two old bastards, Song Tianwen and Song Qingxue. Now, I'll send you two dog siblings on your way."

The terrifying pressure poured down, causing the golden aura around Song Qingxue to tremble violently and teeter on the brink of collapse!

Song Tianwen froze, his mind reeling. He stared in horror at the figure of the blood-haired youth, his heart churning with turmoil!

At the Tianqing County assessment conference, Chen Yuan was just a mere junior of the Huangting level, less than an ant in his eyes, and could be destroyed at will!

In such a short time, this kid has become so powerful!

He was actually able to kill a True Immortal of the Purple Mansion!

Such an incredible speed of advancement is simply unbelievable and astonishing!

"roar!!!"

The remaining mutated beasts of the Song family, fearless of death, roared deafeningly and once again attacked in a swarm!

This is the altered alien warrior under the influence of spiritual energy pollution.

Normally they are just ordinary people, but when it comes to a critical moment of killing, they take a pill called the Mad Demon Pill or Mad Monster Pill, which amplifies their evil thoughts and killing intent infinitely, turning them into ferocious beasts who only know how to kill and are not afraid of death.

This is the fundamental reason why the human kingdom's army was unable to fight against the beast demon army three thousand years ago.

Chen Yuan lowered his eyes and stared at the group of crazed and ferocious beasts, his thoughts racing. He then came back to his senses, and a cruel smile appeared on his lips.

He softly recited the incantation for the deadly human-skin umbrella:

"The umbrella covers the world, all spirits are buried, the path is sealed and the prison is suppressed, souls are sacrificed and spirits are refined, the light of the heaven-slaying soul shines..."

The incantation fell, and the evil weapon stirred!

hum! ! !

The speed of the human skin umbrella's rotation increased several times over, the dark red blood-red patterns on the umbrella's surface intensified, a biting wind howled and swept through, and countless dark ghostly figures emerged from the bottom of the umbrella, floating and drifting!

The entire area under its influence was completely transformed into a hellish prison!
