Boom!
The colossal true form of the Giant Spirit, tens of zhang tall, descended with terrifying power, its foot stomping down.
Beneath it, Ling Fan was so minuscule he seemed like an ant.
He appeared as though he could be crushed at will.
Many powerful figures narrowed their eyes.
They saw no hope of Ling Fan surviving this attack.
As they watched.
The foot was about to land on Ling Fan's head.
Even before the full force of the terrifying power struck, the ground beneath was already cracking and collapsing under the immense pressure.
Yet, Ling Fan, standing in the center, remained unfazed.
He raised his gaze, his deep, indifferent eyes revealing a hint of disdain.
A mere late-stage Giant Spirit Realm cultivator dared to step on him. Truly, he courted death.
Ling Fan had not feared late-stage Giant Spirit Realm cultivators even when his injuries were not healed.
Now, not only were his injuries fully recovered, but his Nirvana Tribulation Body had advanced further, reaching the minor accomplishment stage. The blood pill within his heart had increased to five. His current strength far surpassed all beings in this Upper Heaven Realm.
Without a Martial Venerable, all were ants.
Even a true Core Condensation Realm Martial Venerable, he had the strength to contend with.
Ling Fan casually raised a hand. This hand appeared incredibly fragile, as if it would be shattered upon contact with the Giant Spirit's true form.
However, as this hand extended, the Giant Spirit's foot, which seemed to carry immense force as it descended, encountered an insurmountable obstacle and ground to a halt.
No matter how hard Tu Zuo, the Fourth Hall Master of the Scarlet Dragon Hall, exerted himself, the foot of the Giant Spirit's true form could not advance an inch.
"What's going on!"
"Holy crap, he actually blocked it..."
The gazes of everyone trembled, disbelieving what they were witnessing.
In their eyes, a late-stage Giant Spirit Realm cultivator who had condensed the Giant Spirit's true form represented the pinnacle of combat power in the Upper Heaven Realm. Without the emergence of a Great Accomplishment King, the few late-stage Giant Spirit Realm cultivators in the Upper Heaven Realm were considered invincible.
Yet, today, their understanding was shattered.
Tu Zuo's face turned red with exertion.
As the Fourth Hall Master of the Scarlet Dragon Hall, if he couldn't even deal with a junior, he would have lost face to the extreme.
"Get lost!"
A cold, dismissive reprimand echoed from beneath the Giant Spirit's foot.
Immediately, a pure Yang Qi, like a blazing flame, erupted like a rolling torrent.
It resembled a pillar of light soaring into the sky, instantly piercing the sole of Tu Zuo's Giant Spirit's true form. The terrifying power then sent the tens of zhang tall Giant Spirit's true form flying.
Ling Fan stepped forward and flicked his fingers three times. Three streams of pure Yang Qi struck the Giant Spirit's true form again. With a series of explosive sounds, the chest, head, and limbs of Tu Zuo's Giant Spirit's true form rapidly shattered.
Finally, before the stunned gazes of all, Tu Zuo's Giant Spirit's true form, condensed with immense spiritual power, was casually destroyed by Ling Fan.
At that moment.
The entire scene fell silent!
Everyone had yet to recover.
Ling Fan, with one hand behind his back, casually extended the other and grabbed at Tu Zuo from a distance.
With this grab, the space between them seemed to instantly curl and shatter layer by layer. Terrifying blood qi transformed into a fearsome palm, reaching out to seize Tu Zuo.
Tu Zuo felt a great sense of alarm.
He frantically mobilized all his remaining spiritual power, forming a thick shield of spiritual energy. Then, he summoned a circular shield with forty-four golden patterns. A tiger head imprinted on it suddenly surged forth, transforming into the phantom of a terrifying demon tiger that circled him.
But no matter what means Tu Zuo employed, it was all in vain.
With this grab, all of Tu Zuo's defenses became mere decorations. With a series of cracking sounds, the blood qi palm passed through them, seized Tu Zuo by the neck, and lifted him as if he were a chick.
"Gah, gah!"
Tu Zuo's eyes widened in terror. The gaze he directed at Ling Fan was no longer filled with contempt and disdain, but with boundless panic and fear.
As the blood qi palm gradually tightened, Tu Zuo's eyes bulged, and his face turned red, as if the blood vessels beneath his skin were about to burst.
An unprecedented, overwhelming fear surged within him, engulfing everything.
"Don't, don't kill me! I'm the Fourth Hall Master of the Scarlet Dragon Hall! Our Great Hall Master is a Great Accomplishment King! If you kill me, he won't let you off..."
Ling Fan sneered dismissively.
To be dozens or hundreds of years old and still resort to such threats.
Ridiculous.
The blood qi palm tightened abruptly.
Bang!
Tu Zuo's body instantly exploded into a mist of blood. His spiritual body let out a shrill cry, attempting to escape, but as the blood qi palm gripped it again, terrifying flames erupted from within the palm. Tu Zuo's spiritual body was thus refined and killed.
Everyone watched this scene in stunned silence.
Fear surged wildly within their hearts.
That was the Fourth Hall Master of the Scarlet Dragon Hall, a true late-stage Giant Spirit Realm powerhouse, yet he was strangled to death like an ant...
Ao Long Wudi, the Holy Son of the Scarlet Dragon Hall, trembled.
Thump!
His legs gave way, and he collapsed to the ground, utterly dejected.
Ling Fan clapped his hands.
Without looking at Ao Long Wudi.
He turned his gaze towards Elder Yin Tuo of the Heavenly Azure Sect and Elder Xue Hanming of the Snow King Palace.
Under Ling Fan's gaze, both Yin Tuo and Xue Hanming felt immense pressure.
They exchanged glances.
Without any superfluous words.
They both chose to attack simultaneously.
And with their first moves, they unleashed their full power, holding nothing back.
Boom!
With two piercing shrieks that tore through the sky, two terrifying and boundless spiritual powers erupted in a roar.
Yin Tuo of the Heavenly Azure Sect pointed at the sky. The long robe on his body billowed in the wind, and he floated up.
As the robe flew higher and higher, it expanded wildly, like a sky-obscuring curtain, spreading across the sky outside Moon Gazing Valley.
One of the Heavenly Azure Sect's foundational spiritual artifacts, the Sleeve Universe!
Many recognized this incredibly powerful Profound Tier Middle Grade spiritual weapon, one of the renowned spiritual weapons in the Upper Heaven Realm.
Once, Elder Yin Tuo of the Heavenly Azure Sect had wielded this spiritual weapon to completely annihilate a medium-sized sect.
Alas, that sect, from top to bottom, all several thousand people, were all killed in one fell swoop, including several Giant Spirit Realm powerhouses of the sect!
At this moment, as this powerful Profound Tier Middle Grade spiritual weapon appeared, it displayed immense might, as if it intended to engulf this entire realm and refine it into nothingness.
As Yin Tuo pointed at Ling Fan, this boundless curtain formed by the spiritual weapon descended like the sky itself, suddenly covering Ling Fan below.
And at the same time.
Elder Xue Hanming of the Snow King Palace erupted with a terrifying power of ice sealing. As she pointed forward, terrifying ice and snow churned, transforming into two colossal ice crystal dragons.
With a roar, they attacked Ling Fan from left and right, coiling around him.
With the sky-curtain suppressing from above.
And ice dragons besieging from below.
Ling Fan seemed to have fallen into an extremely perilous situation.
