Chapter 590: The Terrifying Elder Su!
“Hmph, you call this an ambush? Since when has the Divine Sword School resorted to such underhanded tactics?”
At that moment, Elder Su shouted loudly and swung Bai Mingshan, whom he held in his hand, downward to the left, as if tossing a spear.
“Swoosh…”
The empty air rippled, and an elderly figure materialized out of nowhere. Their eyes locked on Bai Mingshan, who was being hurled toward them, and they frowned. A burst of light surrounded their body, as though a gentle force aimed to shield Bai Mingshan from harm.
“Ha ha!”
Just then, Elder Su Kuangge’s figure appeared in a blur. His palm was covered with a crystalline glow, and a fierce, blinding palm strike hit the back of Bai Mingshan, as if trying to end his life in one blow.
Deceptive and merciless!
If the elderly figure tried to dodge, Bai Mingshan would be killed on the spot. There was no escape, unless they chose to watch as Bai Mingshan perished. The name of Sword Yama was now confirmed without a doubt.
Upon realizing this, the figure’s expression shifted dramatically. His brows furrowed in discomfort, and with a reluctant glance, he abandoned his attempt to protect Bai Mingshan, quickly sidestepping. A powerful palm imprint shot out from him, radiating brilliant light, and collided with the incoming attack.
“Bang!”
The two palm imprints collided mid-air, sending a violent shockwave that rippled through the space before it slowly faded.
“Boom…”
Elder Bai Mingshan was knocked back, crashing into the mountain. The ground shook, rocks splintered, and he was swallowed up by the dust and rubble, his fate unclear.
Up above, the sudden figure emerged and steadied himself, pushed back by several dozen feet but managing to regain his footing.
The newcomer appeared elderly, with a wrinkled face, flowing grey-white hair, and a grey-white robe. But his eyes were bright and full of life, sparkling like stars, too dazzling to look at directly.
“Great Elder!”
Someone gasped. It was the Great Elder of the Divine Sword School. He had arrived. However, from the brief exchange, it was obvious that Elder Su was not to be trifled with.
“Elder Su, why the hostility? It’s a great blessing that a disciple has inherited the supreme benefits left by the ancestor!”
The Great Elder’s voice was soft, but his expression was tense, fear visible in his eyes as he regarded Elder Su. The recent confrontation had proven that Su Kuangge’s strength far exceeded his expectations.
“Rubbish! One of our disciples from the Fifteenth Sword Peak is dead, and now it’s become a joyous event? Now even I am in danger of losing my life. Since when did the Divine Sword School let you dictate everything?”
Elder Su Kuangge glared at the Great Elder, his voice deep and commanding, sharp and firm.
“Elder Su, please calm down. No one intended to harm you, but we feared you might lose your temper.” The Great Elder stammered, his voice trembling.
“Twisting the laws of nature, confusing light with darkness—today, whoever stands in my way as I capture Yun Lingfeng, the scoundrel, will regret it.”
Elder Su’s voice rang with authority, his robes billowing as an aura of power surged around him.
“Elder Su, why?”
The Great Elder’s eyes narrowed with apprehension, yet he had no choice but to move forward, taking a resolute step.
“Are you trying to stop me? Fine, let’s see how much you’ve grown over the years!”
As Elder Su spoke, his figure shot through the air like lightning, rapidly growing in size in the Great Elder’s eyes. A vicious claw strike surged forward, ready to overpower him.
“Yama’s claw!”
The Great Elder’s expression shifted, and a wave of fiery energy surrounded him. A powerful shield of energy enveloped his body, sending a deep and formidable pressure through the air, making the surrounding space tremble as a fist strike rushed towards him.
“Swoosh…”
The fist strike cut through the air, and Elder Su Kuangge’s claw was instantly shattered, crumbling piece by piece under the force of the collision.
“Shadow…”
The Great Elder’s face changed in an instant. Panic flickered in his eyes as he hastily tried to retreat.
But it was too late. A claw strike appeared beside him, descending rapidly toward his right shoulder.
“The power of space… you’ve reached such a stage!”
The Great Elder gasped in disbelief, his eyes widening with real fear. It was as if a sudden surge of life force was gathering on his shoulders.
In an instant, a shield of light formed above him, emitting searing flames. The small space above the Great Elder’s shoulder warped, sending up sizzling smoke as though it was trying to incinerate the air itself.
“Splish-splash.”
Claw marks landed on the Great Elder’s shoulder, but the shield of blazing flames absorbed the blows. The fiery shield burned fiercely, dimming the brilliance of the claw marks.
“My fiery flame shield is unbreakable!”
A flicker of triumph appeared in the Great Elder’s eyes, believing the shield to be invincible.
“Do you think my Yama’s Claw is that simple?”
Elder Su Kuangge’s eyes narrowed, and a cold glint flashed across his face.
As soon as the words left his mouth, a blood-red light burst from his claw marks. A tremendous force, laden with a terrifying aura, erupted in an instant.
“Crackle…”
The fiery flame shield that had blocked Elder Su Kuangge’s attack shattered into pieces, splintering apart.
Elder Su’s claw strike pressed down directly on the Grand Elder’s shoulder.
“Oh no!”
The Grand Elder cried out in alarm, trying to retreat, but his entire aura dissipated, pouring out completely. A fearsome energy swept across the void, shaking the heavens and earth. The entire Divine Sword School trembled with a deafening roar.
“Hahaha…”
The Grand Elder staggered back, but missed his footing. The impact left his shoulder torn, blood spilling everywhere.
“Ah…”
The Grand Elder cried out in agony as a large portion of his flesh was ripped from his shoulder. Blood flowed freely, his bones visible in the mangled mess.
“Puff…”
He spat blood, his body reeling in defeat as he hastily retreated. Those watching, their gazes trembling, could only watch in horror.
Despite the arrival of the Grand Elder, the other elders appeared weak and helpless, easily defeated by Elder Su’s overwhelming power.
Elder Su’s strength was terrifying, truly fearsome.
The other fallen elders began to stir, rising slowly, each of them bloodied and pitiful.
Elder Bai Mingshan was not dead. He crawled out from the rubble, looking disheveled and broken. His hair was a mess, his face pale, and blood poured relentlessly from him. His left arm had been shattered completely, hanging by only a few torn pieces of flesh, as if severed.
It appeared that Elder Su Kuangge had done this intentionally—he spared Bai Mingshan’s life but crushed his arm with excessive force when he threw him.
“Ah…”
The agony from his broken arm forced a low groan from Bai Mingshan, his face twisted in pain as he glared at Elder Su Kuangge with intense hatred and malevolence.
“Looks like you haven’t improved much in all these years. You’re all still worthless, only knowing how to exclude others. You never gave Su Yi, that young man, a chance. No wonder the Divine Sword School hasn’t been able to thrive. The priceless legacy left by the ancestors ends up in your hands. What a joke!”
Elder Su Kuangge’s voice boomed like thunder, echoing throughout the Divine Sword School.
The elders present turned ashen, their faces twitching with fear.
“Since you refuse to come out, I’ll start killing your descendants and see how long you can endure.”
Suddenly, Elder Su Kuangge’s words took a more ominous turn as his gaze shifted toward the depths of the empty space.
