Chapter 1555: Secret Realm of the Heavenly Crystal

A magnificent force swept through, Yuan Emperor Xue Honglou stood there, and Su Yi felt a holy light pressure that was much stronger than Ouyang Yuanfeng’s. Although Xue Honglou’s cultivation was low, he possessed the aura of a saint king, and he was definitely not weaker than Ouyang Yuanfeng!

At this moment, Su Yi’s energy surged wildly, without any reservation. He aimed to finish the battle with Xue Honglou swiftly.

Kill intent flickered in Su Yi’s eyes, and he forcefully pushed his palms, causing a series of cracking sounds from his joints. A vast gust of wind accompanied by roaring flames directly attacked Xue Honglou.

"Flaming Heavenly Palm！"

Suddenly, the deafening roar of wind and thunder swept over, countless palm imprints flew in the sky, carrying immense flames and radiant heat. They enveloped both Xue Honglou and Wang Quande.

"Saint King Protective Body Qi!" said Xue Honglou, who stood in the flames as Li Ling watched from a distance.

Saint King Protective Body Qi is a unique martial art of the Saint Child. It relies on the energy of the saint king to activate and is an absolute defense exclusive to the Saint Child of the Sacred Mountain. Su Yi had witnessed it before when Nanan Ruyu used it.

"So what! People from the Sacred Mountain will die! Attack!" shouted Su Yi confidently. If Nanan Ruyu could be defeated, then Xue Honglou could be defeated as well!

Within the tightly-sealed flame palm print, a fierce red light and vigorous wind swept through. Su Yi swiftly moved, constantly changing his posture.

In an instant, a faint golden light surged from under Su Yi’s feet. The sound of a dragon’s roar echoed as all his powerful attribute energy gathered on his soles, forming a tremendous footprint.

"Wrath of the Eight Wastelands，Nine Maneuvers to Shake the Universe！"

The overwhelming footprints, shimmering with divine light, came flooding in. Each footstep stronger than the previous, the footprints’ radiant waves shattered the space ahead, causing countless cracks and ripples to appear.

Derived from the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique, the martial art Wrath of the Eight Wastelands emanated an immensely powerful force. Under the footprints, the space tore apart, creating waves and fissures, overwhelming the heavens and the earth, directly bombarding Xue Honglou’s Saint King Protective Body Qi.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The attack sounded like a wild storm, making everyone tremble, dizzy, and struggle to breathe.

"Can Xue Honglou withstand such a fierce attack?" Yun Qing worriedly asked.

"Cheers!"

"Crash!"

Suddenly, a beam of golden light shot out from the flames. With a loud shout, Xue Honglou’s figure was obscured by a strange whirlpool, and a dazzling light engulfed the surroundings.

In an instant, Su Yi, who had retreated rapidly, and Xue Honglou, who had burst out, faced each other in mid-air, both with a look of surprise in their eyes.

Su Yi noticed that Wang Quande, who was by Xue Honglou’s side, was now on the verge of collapse. He was covered in injuries, suffering from the collision of the saint king’s aura and the breath of the golden dragon. His energy was in chaos, blood continuously flowing from the corners of his mouth, a pitiful sight.

Turning to Su Yi and Xue Honglou, Su Yi’s gaze was solemn. His body had suffered some damage from the intense impact, with tattered cloth flying in the air. Flames surrounded Su Yi’s body, making him appear majestic and god-like.

On the other side, Xue Honglou’s appearance was disheveled, with a few strands of hair hanging between his eyebrows. His gaze towards Su Yi was dark and ominous.

"No wonder Nalan lost! Your strength is enough to make you one of the Saint Childs!" Xue Honglou said coldly.

"Are you looking for me in the Chaos Realm? The incident at the Spirit Treasure Tower!" Su Yi remained calm and steady, facing Xue Honglou’s intense soul suppression without backing down.

"You are not qualified enough for me to come looking for you!" Xue Honglou stared at Su Yi, seemingly not mentioning his own visit to the Chaos Realm.

Su Yi could feel the strange movement deep within Xue Honglou’s soul. Invisibly, the unstoppable fighting spirit and unease surged once again.

"Su Yi, this guy’s killing intent is strange! It doesn’t seem to be directed at you, but it’s strong! Let me help you!"

Yun Qing’s energetic voice transmitted, and the colossal body of the Wood Spirit God stirred, like an invincible and mighty deity descending upon the world!

"Don’t worry," Su Yi replied calmly.

Waves of swirling ripples continued to appear in the void around Xue Honglou’s body, like an elegant young man walking out of a painting. He looked at the scattered debris and listened to the cries all around, coldly sneering.

"The Sacred Mountain slaughtered the Li family, and you have killed so many people from the Sacred Mountain. I don’t need to investigate! There will naturally be people who will hold you accountable for this! The Sacred Mountain is not something you can meddle with!"

Xue Honglou said something that surprised Li Ling and Su Yi. All the disciples of Sacred Mountain were proud of it, but this Fifth Saint Child seemed indifferent to Sacred Mountain’s great difficulties.

"Fifth Saint Child… you!" Li Ling hesitated to speak. This was not something a Saint Child should say.

"However, I must obtain the Water Crimson Heavenly Crystal. If you try to take it, you will die!" Suddenly, Xue Honglou burst with a terrifying killing intent, his shout resonated like thunder, shaking the air!

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Just then, the bustling sounds from different areas in the distance began to fade away. The voices of Elder Xu and Elder Liu echoed through the entire world, like thunderous waves in the sky.

"Quickly find out who did this! I want them torn to pieces!"

"Old fool! Sacred Mountain thieves! They have occupied Baicao Mountain for many years. Listen, everyone, let’s fight!" The Thunderous Demon Lion’s eyes were wide with anger as it spoke to Elder Xu.

Heavenly birds shook the sky in the distance, fierce beasts lurked nearby, and a terrifying Beast Tide erupted in the entire forest.

Roars of beasts filled the forest, causing it to tremble!

The sound explosions and cries filled the air, making the people at the Li’s Ancestral Hall even more scared and horrified!

"Two old ghosts are coming, we definitely can’t beat them!" Yun Qing frowned.

Su Yi looked into Xue Honglou’s fierce eyes, which seemed to have the power to purify all things in time. It made everyone who saw them feel a sense of awe.

Deep in thought, Xue Honglou didn’t use his true trump card, and he couldn’t guarantee that he could instantly defeat him. Engaging in a fight was not a wise choice. He glared at Ouyang Jinwei and Ouyang Yuanfeng.

"These two people from the Ouyang family are really troublesome! But it seems like Xue Honglou doesn’t want Elder Xu and Elder Liu, or Wang Quande, to find the Water Crimson Heavenly Crystal!" Su Yi frowned.

"Aren’t they from the same lineage?" Yun Qing was puzzled.

With the punishment temporarily given to Sacred Mountain, Su Yi felt somewhat comforted. The losses of Sacred Mountain were already severe enough. The only thing left was to clean up the battlefield. Once Su Yi left, Elder Xu and Elder Liu would not investigate the matter of the Beast Tide any further.

Immediately, Su Yi mentally probed and said to the Iron Soul Beast, "Old Iron, is the power of the Heavenly Crystal Residue enough to activate the Water Crimson Heavenly Crystal?"

"It’s enough! Use your magic to catalyze the mantra I gave you, and the hidden method will naturally be broken. The location of the Water Crimson Heavenly Crystal will then be revealed!"
