Swordholder

The bloodthirsty demonic light in the eyes of the mutated beasts below dimmed instantly, and an extreme fear from the depths of their souls arose in their hearts. Their limbs stiffened, and they lost all their ferocity!

Song Tianwen's pupils suddenly contracted, revealing a look of horror.

"This black umbrella... this kid probably obtained it from the ruins of the Ancient Corpse Transformation Sect!"

In a flash, he thought of the origin of Chen Yuan's magic weapon, and his eyes burned with desire.

In particular, he could clearly sense that a unique domain had formed beneath the black umbrella!

Within the domain, cultivation, fighting spirit, and divine soul were all locked, devoured, and crushed!

"Corpse-Rotting Bone Inflammation!!"

Chen Yuan shouted coldly again!

boom!

Beside him, a bright white light suddenly appeared, and a skull burning with a ghostly white flame appeared out of thin air!

In the next instant, one becomes two, two become four, and four become countless!

Countless white skulls, burning with flames, filled the entire void. The white flames burned the heavens and the earth, and the terrifying heat scorched the void, causing it to crackle and distort!

"kill!"

The next instant, with Chen Yuan's shout, thousands of fiery skulls, like a torrential downpour of fiery meteors, crashed heavily to the ground!

"Aaaaaah!!"

The remaining ferocious beasts of the Song family were unable to dodge in time and were all pierced through by the skull flames!

The white flames burned bones and eroded souls; in an instant, all the mutated ferocious beasts were reduced to ashes!

Vanished without a trace!

In just a few breaths, on the entire battlefield, apart from Song Tianwen and Song Qingxue, all members of the Song family were killed and exterminated!

Chen Yuan stepped onto the ground, standing firmly in front of the shaky golden aura of spiritual energy, his eyes cold and filled with an absolute sense of dominance.

He slowly raised his hand, and white bone flames rose fiercely from his palm, pressing directly against the spiritual light shield!

Sizzle sizzle sizzle!!

The ear-piercing sound of corrosion echoed throughout the venue!

The resilient psionic aura, the seemingly solid protective barrier, crumbled and dissipated in an instant, like melting ice and snow!

The shield is shattered!

Song Qingxue suddenly opened her eyes, her blood and qi surging, and a backlash of excruciating pain swept through her entire body!

Furthermore, his breakthrough opportunity completely collapsed, his realm plummeted, and he suffered severe injuries!

"ah······"

She let out a low growl filled with hatred!

At that moment, extreme grief, resentment, and regret overwhelmed her mind!

She stared intently at Chen Yuan, her eyes filled with resentment and bitterness.

During the daytime battle, she relied on her cultivation level and deliberately suppressed her realm to fight Chen Yuan at the same level, wanting to crush him!

However, he was no match for them and was beaten to a pulp.

So she tried to unseal her cultivation realm, but Chen Yuan stopped her and relentlessly attacked her!

The same thing happened today. She was on the verge of breaking through to the Concentration Realm, but Chen Yuan pulled her back from behind!

This person is truly her nemesis, cutting off her opportunities and shattering her path!

"Want to break through? Maybe in your next life."

Chen Yuan smiled coldly, and the Blood Bone Sword slashed out with a roar!

*Sizzle!*

The crimson sword energy surged forward like a tsunami, crushing everything in its path!

Song Tianwen's expression changed drastically, and he forcibly dragged Song Qingxue away, desperately trying to escape!

boom!!!

The spot where the two had been standing was cleaved by a sword, creating a huge ravine several meters deep and stretching for tens of meters, with soil and rocks flying everywhere and the earth cracking!

"That scoundrel Chen Yuan! This is an irreconcilable hatred!"

Song Qingxue's face was contorted with rage, as if she had gone mad!

Although she failed to break through and was severely injured, she was still at the Opening Mansion Realm and her combat power remained!

"Let's join forces and kill him!"

Song Tianwen's eyes were filled with venom and murderous intent!

boom!

boom!!

The brother and sister simultaneously unleashed their full spiritual power, creating a violent shockwave that swirled into a hurricane, attacking Chen Yuan from both the left and right!

boom!

Thousands of white bone and fire skulls rose up around Chen Yuan once again, with nether flames burning fiercely, and crashed headlong into the hurricane between the two!

A tremendous collision erupted, the shockwave swept across the surrounding area, and the aftershocks caused the earth to crack layer by layer!

Taking advantage of the chaos of the attack, a cunning glint flashed in Song Tianwen's eyes. He grabbed Song Qingxue and turned to flee!

"Want to leave? Hmph, did you even ask me?"

Chen Yuan sneered, made hand seals, and activated the ultimate restraint of the human skin umbrella!

hum! ! !

The black umbrella suddenly expanded, covering the sky and instantly enveloping the two fleeing individuals!

The exclusive prison area has taken shape once again, with space frozen and airflow locked!

Song Tianwen and Song Qingxue suddenly froze, as if they were stuck in a quagmire, and their speed dropped by 90%!

"What kind of magical artifact is this?!"

Song Tianwen was terrified and struggled desperately, urging his spiritual power to fight back.

hum! ! !

A layer of transparent golden bell light suddenly appeared around him, with golden runes flowing around it, protecting the brother and sister and forcefully resisting the domain's confinement and erosion!

"Let's see how long you can resist!"

Chen Yuan's eyes flashed with a fierce light as he raised his hand and frantically poured the murderous aura accumulated in the crimson palace within his body into the Blood Bone Sword!

10%, 30%, 50%... 90%!

The extreme malevolent energy was frantically poured into the sword, and almost instantly, ninety percent of it was drawn away!

Clang!

The Blood Bone Sword trembled violently, emitting a joyful and excited clang, and the sword pressure rose steadily, approaching the limit that Chen Yuan could withstand!

Clang!

The crimson sword energy surged into a sky-high canopy, carrying an overwhelming power, and crashed down upon the golden bell!

boom! ! !

A deafening roar that shattered the heavens resounded in all directions!

The golden psionic bell shattered instantly, disintegrating into countless points of light!

The terrifying aftershocks slammed into the two of them!

puff! !

Song Tianwen and Song Qingxue both coughed up blood and flew backward, crashing heavily into the ruins. Countless bones in their bodies were shattered, and their injuries deteriorated to the extreme in an instant!

"Prepare to die!"

Chen Yuan's voice was icy and ruthless. His figure transformed into a streak of blood-red light and arrived in an instant. His Blood Bone Sword was aimed directly at the necks of the two men, and the fatal blow was delivered in the blink of an eye!

"No!!"

Song Qingxue's eyes were bloodshot, her face filled with extreme resentment and despair!

If she hadn't been suppressed by the eerie black umbrella, she would never have been defeated so miserably!

At the critical moment, Song Tianwen suddenly flipped over and stood in front of Song Qingxue!

puff!

A flash of cold light, and his head flew into the air!

"elder brother!!"

Song Qingxue screamed in grief, tears streaming down her face, her heart breaking!

She never imagined that coming to Tianqing County as the prefect would lead to her death.

But the next moment, her body suddenly froze.

Chen Yuan's gaze also sharpened, sensing something amiss!

Song Tianwen's headless corpse stood upright in place, without gushing out a single drop of blood!

Chen Yuan reacted extremely quickly, instantly swinging his sword again to cleave the headless corpse in two!

puff!

The corpse was cracked open, with no internal organs or flesh, just a body full of dry straw!

A substitute... a puppet!

Chen Yuan's pupils contracted sharply, and he instantly understood everything!

The strange look in Song Tianwen's eyes earlier was not a sign of hesitation or indecision, but rather that he had already made preparations!

It wasn't the real thing after all!

Chen Yuan's eyes flashed with murderous intent. Without the slightest hesitation, he turned his sword and aimed it directly at Song Qingxue's neck, who was in a daze behind him!

The substitute can escape, but this woman must be killed!

boom!!!

But just as the sword was about to strike, the entire Blackwater City suddenly trembled violently, and the earth shook violently!

The human skin umbrella above their heads was suddenly struck by an irresistible and terrifying force, instantly causing it to be thrown off course and flying around!

Chen Yuan was violently shaken, as if struck by a thunderbolt from the heavens. His body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, completely unable to control his own body!

This was an absolute pressure far exceeding Chen Yuan's realm, like a tsunami capsizing a boat or a mountain pressing down!

"Damn it, what's going on?!"

Chen Yuan was shocked and horrified. He forced himself to calm down and manipulated the human skin umbrella to return to its normal size, protecting his body and resisting the terrifying pressure raging all over the sky!

He quickly scanned the entire scene, and Song Qingxue's figure had vanished into thin air!

The next second, the entire sky suddenly darkened!

An enormous, all-encompassing hand, blotting out the sky, suddenly swept across the heavens and earth, enveloping the entire world!

boom------!!!

The giant hand crashed down with a devastating force, carrying the power to destroy the heavens and the earth and suppress all ages, slamming down fiercely!

It's like an ordinary person swatting an ant!

The earth collapsed with a deafening roar that lasted for a long time!

Blackwater City was completely annihilated and vanished in an instant!

The city's countless lives and buildings were all reduced to nothingness and blood mist!

As the dust settled, all that remained on the earth was an enormous, wide, and bottomless giant palm print crater!

At the bottom of the deep pit, gravel flew everywhere and dust filled the air.

"puff!!"

Chen Yuan's body erupted with a mist of blood, and mouthfuls of blood gushed out wildly!

Large patches of his blood-red scales cracked and fell off, his skin was covered with dense, hideous cracks, and he was covered in blood, with his bones visible. He had suffered an unprecedented and severe injury!

If it weren't for the evil god's tough body and scales protecting him, he would have turned to ashes along with Blackwater City long ago!

Chen Yuan, supporting his broken body, struggled to his feet from the rubble, his mind reeling and his heart pounding.

A moment later, his gaze darkened as he finally understood the whole story.

The previous Song Tianwen was a substitute puppet from beginning to end!

The real Song Tianwen has arrived!

Upon realizing this, Chen Yuan was overwhelmed with shock and utter disbelief!

In that split second between life and death, a sudden realization flashed through Chen Yuan's mind.

He misjudged Song Tianwen from beginning to end.

This person always kept his true level of cultivation hidden, never revealing even a fraction of it to others.

All the previous restraint, low profile, and strange actions have now been explained.

Above the void, a cold and majestic voice boomed down, like a thunderclap shattering the night sky, carrying a chilling killing intent and mockery:

"Chen Yuan, you little beast, you've got guts! You actually dared to destroy my puppet clone."

Chen Yuan suddenly looked up, his pupils contracted sharply, and a storm of emotions surged in his eyes.

The clouds in the sky parted, and a figure dressed in a solemn official robe stood on the void—it was Song Tianwen's true form.
