Chapter 346: Devouring Pressure
“Just a wave of pressure can’t hurt me!”
Ye Yun’s voice suddenly echoed across the sky.
Everyone froze in disbelief. How could the pressure from a Golden Core stage expert—capable of slaying any Foundation Establishment stage cultivator—fail to harm Ye Yun?
Yet there he stood, eyes gleaming as he took a bold step forward and smiled at Elder Seven.
Elder Seven gaped. He knew Elder Jin’s cultivation level—second layer of the Golden Core stage. Though Mei Yansheng was also Golden Core, the gap between them was immeasurable. Elder Jin could kill Mei Yansheng in a single move.
“I’m telling the truth,” Ye Yun repeated calmly.
Though puzzled, Elder Seven noted Ye Yun’s unharmed state and clear speech.
Elder Jin’s face twisted in shock. When Elder Seven withdrew his Soul Power, he’d condensed his own pressure into a lethal arrow aimed at Ye Yun’s brow. Even if the boy survived, his Soul’s Fire should’ve been snuffed out, leaving him a mindless husk.
But Ye Yun stood unharmed, mockery flashing in his eyes.
“How?!” Elder Jin rasped.
“Why not?” Ye Yun shrugged.
The crowd erupted in murmurs. What treasure did Ye Yun possess? What was his true strength? He’d become a walking mystery.
Duan Yunsha and Duan Hongcheng exchanged stunned looks. Even Du Chuntian, shielded from the pressure, paled at its destructive force—he’d never withstand it unscathed like Ye Yun.
Su Hao leaped down from the Judgment Platform, landing beside Ye Yun. Shen Mo broke free from Yan Changchun’s grip to clutch Ye Yun’s sleeve. Su Ling and Su Yinxue rushed over, tears streaking their cheeks.
“I’m fine,” Ye Yun chuckled.
Only he knew how close he’d come to death. Elder Jin’s attack carried not just Soul Power, but threads of the laws of heaven—a force beyond mere cultivation levels. When that pressure-arrow struck, annihilation seemed certain.
Then it happened—a swirl of black and white light emerged from his brow, swallowing the attack whole. The Heart of Immortals and Demons had acted, devouring the pressure as easily as breathing.
Ye Yun nearly laughed. Of course the artifact protecting him would intervene—his death would inconvenience it. With this, Golden Core experts lost their terror. Their true qi wasn’t vastly stronger, but their grasp of spatial laws and Soul Power made them lethal. Yet against the Heart’s power? Useless.
“Golden Core soul attacks?” Ye Yun smirked. “Overrated.”
Elder Jin ignored Su Hao’s approach, glaring at Ye Yun. “A Qi Refining brat surviving my strike? Impossible!”
“The world’s full of wonders,” Ye Yun said. “You’re just a minor Golden Core expert, not some pill-breaking reborn immortal. Don’t flatter yourself.”
Elder Jin’s eyes narrowed. “You know of core rebirth and earthbound immortals? Who are you? No border town rat speaks thus. You’re from the Great Qin Empire, like Shen Mo!”
Gasps rippled through the crowd. It made sense—only a scion of the Great Qin’s major forces could possess such power and treasures.
“I’ll visit the Great Qin soon,” Ye Yun said lightly. “Jin Kingdom’s too small.”
“You deny imperial ties?” Elder Jin pressed.
“I do.”
“Then die!”
Elder Jin lunged like a great roc, his form blurring into a remnant shadow. A lethal light shot toward Ye Yun’s heart.
Elder Seven moved to intercept, but a mirror materialized before him, bathing him in searing flames. Beyond the blaze, Elder Jin’s strike closed on Ye Yun’s chest—
A Golden Core expert’s killing blow, unleashed without mercy.
