Door to Door!

Glancing toward the other side, Li Guanqi saw Xiao Chen suppressing two opponents with a barrage of frantic spear thrusts, and felt somewhat reassured. Thunderous rumbles echoed endlessly in his ears. Pitted against the undersized ancient Shadow Demon Leopard, Jiuxiao displayed the absolute, crushing dominance of a king! Roar!! Roar! Howl!! The ancient Shadow Demon Leopard let out continuous, agonized whimpers. Its attacks against Jiuxiao could not even penetrate the dragon's defense. Claw strikes delivered with all its might left only faint white scuffs on Jiuxiao's scales. Yet a casual swipe from Jiuxiao ripped away half the beast's flesh, making the leopard's pride in its own defense look like a joke... Li Guanqi did not waste any attention on Jiuxiao's fight, fully convinced the outcome was never in doubt. He calmly turned his head back to the three cultivators before him, looking at them as if they were already dead. "Since you have no more trump cards left, I won't waste my time playing with you." Though fear churned in the woman's heart, a sneer curled her lips. "What brazen arrogance! With just you?" Slash! A world-shaking beam of sword light flashed across heaven and earth, gone in an instant! That sword light was swift to the absolute extreme—so swift that no one had time to react. The protective barrier around the woman had already been sliced to ribbons... Only then did the light across the world abruptly dim. Blood dripped steadily from the blade of the Red Lotus Sword. "Sword Draw Stance: Demon Shadow Slash!" Boom! A thousand zhang of the void behind the woman suddenly tore wide open! The woman looked down at her lower half, which had severed from her torso. Blood surged in reverse, bursting violently from her mouth. "Pfft! Cough, cough..." The man and Ding Gengyang exchanged a frantic glance and, without a word, chose to flee in the same instant! Yet how could Li Guanqi give them the chance? The surrounding space was thoroughly locked down. Even if they crushed teleportation scrolls, he would never give them an opportunity to escape. Suddenly! As he fled in wild panic, Ding Gengyang pulled three teleportation scrolls from his storage ring with terror in his eyes and crushed them all at once! To his utter despair, the shattered scrolls elicited no response whatsoever! A flash of silver light surfaced, but the dense spatial energy was ground to powder by a far more overbearing sealing force! Suddenly! A chill ran down the back of Ding Gengyang's neck. Before he even realized it, an icy blade was already pressed flush against his throat! The man whipped around and poured every ounce of his strength into instantly drawing his sword and slashing out! Boom! A majestic wave of sword light blanketed hundreds of zhang around them. Fierce sword energy ripped the sky to shreds as it hurtled straight toward Li Guanqi! A smirk of mockery touched the corners of Li Guanqi's mouth. He raised Red Lotus, and it flared with crimson radiance! Swish! "Heaven Breaker: Demon Subduer!" His sword intent surged boundlessly. A beam of lightning sword light shattered the incoming assault with overwhelming, irresistible force. The sword light swept past. The man clutched his neck with both hands, feeling only boiling hot blood engulfing his palms. Boom! The sole remaining man trembled so violently that his knees shook. Not a shred of will to resist remained within him... Seeing that beam of sword light had utterly snuffed out his courage to fight back. Only a single thought occupied his mind: run! Run as far away as possible! Yet a sudden chill crawled up his spine. Turning his head, he met a gaze devoid of any emotional ripple. That seemingly mundane look, however, made every hair on his body stand on end! "Ahhh!" He roared frantically, brandishing his sword! Vicious waves of sword light lashed out one after another, crashing toward Li Guanqi like a tempestuous squall. He couldn't understand. He couldn't comprehend why this youth was so terrifyingly strong! He couldn't fathom how this person dared to strike so ruthlessly without showing the slightest regard for the powerful clans backing them! Three Void Refinement experts! These were Void Refining Realm masters who stood atop the clouds! Why?! Why did he dare to kill them the moment he said he would?! "Ahhh! Aren't you afraid of our clans' revenge?!" Li Guanqi stood tall in midair, without even shifting his stance to dodge the oncoming sword light. He simply hovered in the void, gripping the Red Lotus Sword tightly in his left hand, parrying with calm, steady slashes, one stroke at a time. To his eyes, the profoundly intricate trajectories of those sword beams were no different from an ordinary mortal swinging wild punches. Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Boom, boom! Rumble! The concussive bursts of shattering sword light erupted relentlessly, rumbling without pause like war drums. Watching the near-hysterical man, Li Guanqi's eyes flickered, his voice chillingly cold. "Afraid?" "The ones who should be afraid... are your clans." The man's pupils instantly shrank to needlepoints! "What... what are you going to do?!" "Could it be..." Li Guanqi swung his sword violently, instantly obliterating the last traces of sword light before him! Terrifying sword qi crisscrossed the void. Li Guanqi's face twisted into a fierce scowl, and he craned his neck to roar, "Today, among your six clans, every single one of you counts! "After I slaughter all of you, I'll pay a visit to your doors one by one by one myself!" Boom! "Red Lotus Heavenly Dance: World-Ending Lightning Lotus!" Boom! In an instant, an endless deluge of lightning descended across a thousand zhang. Rays of lightning sword light converged into a blooming thunder lotus! What began as a three-foot lightning lotus swelled in the blink of an eye to a breadth of three hundred zhang! Everything within those three hundred zhang was annihilated! Red Lotus Heavenly Dance, world-ending might! This was a spark of inspiration that had first flashed through his mind when he awakened the Red Lotus Apocalypse. Later, during the process of creating his Void Returning avatar, a sudden insight struck him—the stark contrast of life and destruction nurtured within lightning had enabled him to comprehend this strike. The world-illuminating lightning sword light finally dissipated into heaven and earth. Yet the shockwave spawned by this terrifying force blasted the other two Void Refining Realm cultivators over a thousand zhang back! Xiao Chen seized this opportunity and lunged forward. Teleporting beside the elderly man, he gripped his spear in both hands and brought it crashing down atop his skull! Xiao Chen poured all his fury and strength into this blow. Green veins bulged across his arms, and the blood-engorged muscles swelled immensely. The shaft of the Blood God Spear, thick as a wrist, bent into an exaggerated arc. Though it was a rigid spear, it flexed to an angle only a soft spear could achieve. Boom! Flames swirled along the Blood God Spear as a biting heavenly astral wind swept across heaven and earth. The flames detonated, ballooning against the gale! Carrying the boundless force of the blaze, the Blood God Spear smashed down instantly! With terror in his eyes, the old man tossed out several defensive magic treasures, but they couldn't even withstand the astral wind generated by the spear. Bang! The spear landed, instantly crushing the old man's skull to powder, and his body looked as if it had been cleaved by a giant blade. The monstrous power snapped the old man's torso clean in two! Seeing this, the other cultivator acted with treacherous cunning, raising a sword to slash straight at Xiao Chen's arm! Xiao Chen's eyes were bloodshot. Catching the movement out of the corner of his eye, he made an instant decision. He forced his body to twist midair. The sword light flashed, and his entire left arm was lopped off, soaring high into the air! "Flame Lock!" Boom! The power of fire condensed into burning ropes, binding the attacker firmly in place! Xiao Chen let the enemy's longsword slash across his face, shearing off an ear and ripping open his chest. Looking like an avenging fiend, Xiao Chen reversed his grip on the Blood God Spear with his right hand and drove it ruthlessly down into the old woman's neck! "Die!" Squelch! The Blood God Spear plunged straight through the crown of the old woman's head and tore out from beneath her left ribs! Flames consumed the heavens, completely burning away the origin spirits of both deceased cultivators! Seeing this, Li Guanqi let out a sigh of relief, leaving Xiao Chen to slump into the void, gasping for breath in heavy gulps. Drenched in blood, Xiao Chen felt the stifling resentment in his chest ease slightly. Turning toward Li Guanqi, he saw him cleanly severing the heads of all their slain foes! Six mangled heads hovered behind Li Guanqi. He walked over to Xiao Chen's side, slowly reached out a hand, and pulled him to his feet.
