"Today, I will slay Saints!"
Lu Yuan's expression was calm, his voice neither raised nor loud.
Yet his tone carried absolute confidence and domineering pride.
Before him stood three Saint Realm beings, yet they seemed entirely incapable of shaking him.
Just as when facing all his past foes, he showed not a shred of fear.
Standing proud amid the clouds, decisive and haughty.
"Good, good, very good!"
Opposite him, Lei You's gaze sharpened upon hearing those words.
He had thought this man might have learned fear, never expecting him to remain so blind to his own limitations.
The power within Lei You began to surge forth. In an instant, wind and clouds churned, rolling outward in turbulent waves. He continued, "Since you seek your own death, we will grant your wish."
Lei You was thoroughly enraged now. Only one thought occupied his mind: to slay this man at all costs.
Behind him, the Void Saints of the Three-Headed Ghost Clan and Origin Demon Clan also radiated ferocious killing intent.
To both of them, words were entirely useless now.
What mattered most was one thing:
This man must die by their hands.
Terrifying power surfaced from their bodies.
The killing intent unleashed by the three of them reached an absolute peak, almost solidifying into something tangible.
Brilliant beams of radiance erupted from their figures, flooding the entire expanse of the sky.
Thunder and lightning flashed, draping across the heavens in relentless roars.
Below.
Countless people watched the spectacle, their faces turning pale.
They knew what the three were revealing was not yet their full might, yet it was already terrifying beyond belief.
Across from them, however, Lu Yuan seemed completely unaffected. Standing suspended in midair, his battle intent climbed higher and higher.
Rumble!
At this stage, words were no longer needed.
Only battle remained!
And in the very next instant,
The three Saint Realm beings wasted no more words.
Stepping forward in unison, they held nothing back, releasing their mighty power without reserve.
Thud!
Lei You struck first.
Flapping his wings, thousands of bolts of thunderous lightning erupted from his form, filling the entire sky.
Simultaneously, the figures of the Void Saints from the Origin Demon Clan and Three-Headed Ghost Clan vanished into thin air.
The great clash
Had finally begun.
And the instant the three Saint Realm beings struck,
Lu Yuan sensed an intense crisis.
Especially after those two Void Saints disappeared.
Boom!
Golden vital blood surged forth like a torrent.
A great sun manifested, radiating frightful heat.
Lu Yuan was like an incarnate golden sun, unleashing his current power without holding anything back.
Stepping forward to meet the thousands of lightning bolts, Lu Yuan made no flashy movements, simply throwing a straightforward punch.
Boom!
Golden vital blood turned into a roaring ocean, surging with tremendous waves.
It shook the entire firmament.
Crashing into the thousands of lightning bolts with a deafening roar, the two collided and intertwined like the wrath of heaven itself.
The power of lightning was obliterated, leaving only the golden vital blood surging relentlessly forward.
Faced with this, Lei You frowned slightly.
For Lu Yuan's strength
Was even greater than he had anticipated, as demonstrated by that single punch.
Yet he did not panic, remaining standing with composure.
In the next breath, the other two Void Saints appeared.
The Void Saint of the Three-Headed Ghost Clan brandished a heavenly halberd coiled with endless radiant light and dripping with baleful aura, stabbing directly down toward Lu Yuan's crown.
Beside him, the Origin Demon Void Saint's figure swelled in an instant to tens of zhang tall. The black mist wreathing his body bore an extraordinarily dangerous power, engulfing Lu Yuan completely.
It could be said that these two Void Saints struck purely to kill, leaving no margin whatsoever.
Though suppressed below their true Saint Realm power, their attacks far exceeded what the Sovereign King Realm could endure.
Yet Lu Yuan remained completely unperturbed.
His eyes were calm and detached.
Looking at the two attacking Saints, he simply spread his five fingers.
The supreme Daoist divine ability: Jade Emperor Orthodox Heavenly Thunder Art!
Sizzle!
In the very next instant,
Thousands of lightning bolts surged around him just as they had around Lei You, ravaging the heavens—yet their might seemed even greater.
Thunder cracked and boomed as lightning coursed across Lu Yuan's body before suddenly detonating toward the two Void Saints.
Seeing this, the two did not halt their assault.
They struck again, seeking to obliterate the lightning directly.
Yet they soon found the power was too overwhelming to extinguish.
Boom!
With another colossal crash,
The two Void Saints were forced back, the lightning clinging to them like maggots on bone.
Left with no choice, they channeled their internal energy to purge it.
Their expressions turned grim after doing so.
They had thought that with the three of them joining forces against this man, victory was guaranteed.
Never had they imagined his strength would be so formidable that their opening strike failed completely.
Even Lei You was taken aback.
Three of them had struck,
Yet they had not gained the slightest upper hand!
"Now, it should be my turn."
Lu Yuan remained in place, his gaze unwavering as his battle intent burned ever hotter.
The brief clash had allowed him to gauge the approximate power of the three Saint Realm beings after their descent.
They were very strong, far surpassing the Sovereign King Realm.
Even though they were no longer at their peak,
They were still extraordinarily terrifying because their cultivation realm stood above all.
Yet there was no fear in his heart. As soon as his words fell, Lu Yuan took a step forward.
Golden vital blood surged from his entire body, inundating the sky.
At this very moment,
He finally threw caution to the wind and released the full extent of his power.
Never before had he unleashed it like this since embarking on the evolutionary path.
In an instant,
Lu Yuan appeared directly in front of Lei You and drove a fist forward.
The speed was so astonishing that before Lei You could fully react, he scrambled to mount a defense.
But how could it be so easy?
One had to know:
Lu Yuan had unleashed his absolute peak strength!
Beneath that single punch, the Great Sun Smelting Furnace behind him resonated in tandem, letting out a ferocious roar.
Struck by the blow, Lei You plummeted like a meteor and slammed straight into a mountain peak.
Boulders shattered, throwing up thick waves of sand and dust.
Lu Yuan did not pause. Shifting positions, he appeared before the other two Void Saints, unleashing the Jade Emperor Orthodox Heavenly Thunder Art once more.
In an instant, lightning rampaged around him like countless flood dragons lashing out toward the two Void Saints.
Their expressions changed slightly, yet they did not shrink back, for they were Saints.
Facing someone a realm beneath them,
How could they retreat?
The Origin Demon Void Saint spread his black mist outward, shielding his surroundings.
The Three-Headed Ghost Void Saint raised his heavenly halberd high, divine light pulsing across its blade.
Bang!
Three completely distinct powers collided head-on.
Even from ten thousand meters in the air, the shockwaves spilled downward like an earth-shattering tempest.
To say nothing of Elder Ji, Zhu Qingyu, and the others—even mutated beast kings like the Peacock King trembled violently upon feeling that power, eyes brimming with terror.
Everyone knew that a true, peerless battle had begun!
