The disciple kept running towards the direction of the spiritual power fluctuations, swiftly swinging his personal sword, shattering Xu Sheng's clones one by one!!
When he only felt one last trace of Xu Sheng's spiritual power fluctuation around him, he panted heavily, "Now it's your turn, prepare to die!"
As soon as he had spoken, he charged towards Xu Sheng...
With a "clang!" a crisp metallic collision sounded as their personal swords slammed into each other, the massive recoil sending Xu Sheng stumbling back several steps. But the disciple clearly didn't intend to give him a chance and charged again without hesitation...
He shouted coldly, "Mid-Grade Profound Martial Skill!! Spirit of Earth Bind!!"
Suddenly, he slammed a hand onto the ground, and in an instant, the ground beneath Xu Sheng's feet began to tremble and crack, as countless rocks burst forth from the crevices, rapidly coiling around Xu Sheng's legs...
His brows furrowed as he felt an abrupt increase in pressure on his legs, as if they had become several times heavier, leaving him completely unable to move...
The situation was becoming rather dire!
Taking advantage of this, the disciple sneered, "Now let's see you run, Desolate Fist!"
His fist emanated a desolate aura, and a massive force continued to surge from it...
With a "boom!" the fist struck Xu Sheng in the abdomen, blasting him dozens of meters backward...
As Xu Sheng managed to steady himself, he felt a throbbing pain in his internal organs, and then, with a sweet taste in his throat, he spat out a mouthful of blood tinged with the metallic scent of gore...
Seeing that Xu Sheng still hadn't fallen, the disciple exclaimed in shock, "Huh?? He took my punch and still hasn't fallen!"
Is this guy really at the True Immortal Realm? If he were, then he should have been knocked unconscious or even had his body shattered by my punch! But clearly, the fellow before him had only sustained heavy injuries!
If someone like this grew stronger, just how heaven-defying would that be!
Wouldn't he be invincible among his peers!
Xu Sheng coughed again, covering his mouth, "Cough cough..."
If that strike had been a bit stronger, perhaps he would have been directly obliterated!
...
Meanwhile, the three disciples who were besieging the elder saw Xu Sheng nearly getting blown away and one of them exclaimed, "Beautiful! I knew it, how could Senior Brother Li not deal with a True Immortal Realm guy! But it's a bit surprising that he didn't blow up the opponent with one punch!"
Another male disciple spoke gravely, "Stop looking over there; Brother Li will definitely be able to slay him. Our target is this guy right here."
The only female disciple clenched her personal sword, gritting her teeth, "Even though it's three against one, I can't feel any advantage at all! Truly a powerhouse of the Profound Immortal Realm Ninth Layer!"
Even just two minor realms apart seemed to pose an enormous challenge for all three of them!
Upon hearing their conversation, the elder parried another attack with the Soul Summoning Banner, then after a glance at the injured Xu Sheng, said with a cold voice, "You dare to be distracted while fighting me; now, let me show you my true power!"
Profound Grade Top-Tier Martial Technique! Demon Soul Magnetic Explosion!
The next moment, the old man's presence became extremely dangerous as he began to accumulate a massive amount of spiritual power within his body...
Then, with a "boom!", a burst of pitch-black shock waves spread out from the elder like a tide, carrying a terrifying force that covered the surroundings...
Caught off-guard, all three disciples were hit by the pitch-black shock wave and immediately let out screams of agony...
"Ahhh!!!"
"Pfft!!"
"Aargh!!"
Their faces turned several shades paler as the three staggered back more than a dozen steps before they could barely stabilize their figures…
They stared intently at the elder, grinding their teeth and saying, "Damn it, what sort of martial technique is this? There's no chance to dodge it!!"
"Although the injury isn't serious, the kind of pain that comes from the soul is so excruciating it makes one wish for death,"
"This guy is too crafty! We must fight with all our might!"
…
Meanwhile, the disciple with eyes closed, relying on the fluctuations of spiritual power, sneered at Xu Sheng, who was half-bent over, "Alright, I've entertained you long enough, I need to go assist them! So, go to hell!!"
Immediately, several dense Sword Qi swept towards Xu Sheng with an overwhelming force...
If hit, one would be gravely injured at best, or torn to shreds at worst!
Xu Sheng, realizing this, endured the faint pain coming from his abdomen…
His eyes suddenly hardened, and he aimed his palm at the other, shouting coldly, "Wind Suction Palm!"
No sooner had the words fallen than an intense suction burst forth from his palm, which immediately ensnared the Sword Qi and sent them back toward the opposing disciple even faster…
Seeing this, the latter was dumbfounded...
Martial techniques can be used this way??
After snapping back to reality, he frantically swung his personal sword to fend off the Sword Qi…
However, it's not so easy to defend against so many powerful Sword Qi released by oneself!!
Finally, as one Sword Qi went undefended, several hit his chest simultaneously, causing a series of blood blossoms to burst forth…
He couldn't help but let out a scream, "Ahhh!!! Ahhh!!!"
Right after, as he felt his mangled chest, it was as if he had been insulted!!
His cheeks became consumed with rage, and in a stern voice, he roared, "I'm going to kill you!! Kill you!!"
How dare a trivial being from the True Immortal Realm cause him such a serious injury!!
Only by killing him could he quell the fierce rage in his heart!!
Seeing this scene, Xu Sheng continued to provoke him with words, "Is this all it takes to enrage you? It seems your temperament is quite lacking!"
Upon hearing this sentence, the opposing disciple's anger reached its peak!
He roared loudly, "Shut up!! What right does a True Immortal Realm nobody have to judge me!!"
As those words fell, he erupted in movement, charging towards Xu Sheng like a cannonball…
Xu Sheng pursed his thin lips and once again released dozens of clones, starting to run in all directions, attempting to draw the disciple's attention…
But facing the numerous clones, the disciple bellowed, "Earth Grade Low-Level Martial Skill, Extinguish Delusion Sword Qi!!! Die, all of you!!"
With that, he ferociously grasped his personal sword and slashed horizontally…
A gigantic Sword Qi, dozens of meters in size and carrying a momentum that could destroy heaven and earth, ripped through those clones, reducing them to nothingness in an instant…
And then, it surged directly towards Xu Sheng…
…
