Chapter 532: Chapter 0527: Joint Effort to Kill the Late Stage

Chen Yu and the Red Flame King had each killed an enemy at the Early Guiyuan Realm Peak, then went to assist the Copper Badge Holy Guard.

This Copper Badge Holy Guard’s opponent was a Fire Cultivator at the Middle Stage of Guiyuan Realm.

Originally, he could withstand the Holy Guard’s attacks, but once Chen Yu and Red Flame King joined in, he couldn’t hold up any longer.

“You fight with numbers, bullies!”

The man cursed, preparing to retreat.

But under the trio’s unified assault, the Middle Stage Guiyuan Realm cultivator didn’t get far before he was killed.

Meanwhile, the white-haired elder realized something was amiss and tried to escape, but was stopped by Jiang Boxiong.

“Get lost!”

The white-haired elder yelled, his hands sending out a series of fire bursts that exploded with terrifying force.

At that moment, he burst forth with all his strength, temporarily repelling Jiang Boxiong.

Swoosh!

Without another word, the white-haired elder fled.

Facing three enemies, along with an Ancient Beast Spirit Pet, a direct confrontation would undoubtedly lead to defeat and possibly cost him his life.

As long as he could return to the Fire Lion Sect and use the sect’s grand array to block them, it wouldn’t be a problem.

Then he could ask some old friends for help and kill all these people to avenge himself.

“Blue Water Light Sword!”

Jiang Boxiong immediately rushed forward, swinging his treasured sword repeatedly, launching sweeping waves of pale blue sword impressions at high speed.

True Essence surged around the white-haired elder, forming a protective shield.

Swoosh–

The sword impressions came one after another, eventually piercing through the elder’s True Essence shield.

But he was also wearing a medium-grade inner armor which weakened the power of the sword imprints, blocking them.

“He escaped.”

Jiang Boxiong grunted softly and did not give chase.

Firstly, his cultivation was at the Peak of Middle Stage Guiyuan Realm, although he possessed the strength of the Late Guiyuan Realm, killing an opponent of the Late Guiyuan Realm was extremely difficult and risky.

Moreover, Chen Yu was their primary target for this trip, and killing him might yield even greater rewards than killing someone in the Late Guiyuan Realm.

He also didn’t want any unforeseen incidents to occur.

“Brother Jiang, why did you let him escape?”

At this point, Chen Yu approached.

“It’s very difficult to kill him.”

Jiang Boxiong shook his head slightly.

“Just now, you found it difficult alone, but now we are three men strong, plus an Ancient Beast Spirit Pet; that old man realized the danger and ran.”

“We can’t let this man go; as the head of a sect, he must have plenty of Primordial Spirit Flame Crystals.”

Chen Yu continued, his reasoning was very sound.

Firstly, they were stronger than the enemy.

Secondly, the enemy possessed Primordial Spirit Flame Crystals, and the assets of a cultivator at the Late Guiyuan Realm wouldn’t be meager.

Moreover, wasn’t their main mission in this trip to the Summoning Flame Realm to slay natives of Guiyuan Realm?

Chen Yu was somewhat cautious; he felt Jiang Boxiong was acting oddly.

In his view, Jiang Boxiong’s focus on benefits might even surpass that of Feng Tianhao.

Remembering the past, when Jiang Boxiong and Qian Guang created an awkward scene outside Tongyun Tower with Chen Yu, but Jiang Boxiong was able to quickly forget past grievances and shamelessly sought to make friends with Chen Yu.

Now, he could just watch a golden opportunity slip away without much regret, which seemed quite abnormal.

Jiang Boxiong and that Copper Badge Holy Guard exchanged glances as if communicating through their expressions.

“We need to earn Chen Yu’s trust, rejecting now might arouse his suspicion.”

Jiang Boxiong thought for a moment and sent a message to the Copper Badge Holy Guard.

After discussing, Jiang Boxiong promptly said, “Alright, Brother Chen, you’re right, we can’t let him escape.”

Following that, he was the first to chase after.

Immediately after, the Copper Badge Holy Guard, Chen Yu, and the Red Flame King also pursued.

On the other side.

After escaping successfully, the white-haired elder couldn’t help but mutter angrily, “These bastards, really deserve to die; wait until I gather some Guiyuan Realm cultivators, I will bury you all.”

This time, he had indeed lost disastrously.

Not only did he gain no benefits, but all the men he brought were killed, which was a severe blow to the Fire Lion Sect.

Besides, Elder He had gone to chase the short fatty accompanying Chen Yu; he might still be alive.

However, Elder He had already been jointly killed by Feng Tianhao, Jiang Boxiong, and others.

Suddenly.

The white-haired elder sensed a strong surge of True Essence approaching from behind.

His Spiritual Sense swept behind him, and his expression changed dramatically, “They’ve caught up.”

The white-haired elder increased his speed to his peak state.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Chen Yu’s heart surged, doubling his speed, which, enhanced by the black torn wings, surpassed the white-haired elder.

Beside him, Jiang Boxiong and the Copper Badge Holy Guard were both shocked, not expecting Chen Yu to burst forth with such speed.

“Swallowing Cloud Demon Fist!”

Chen Yu activated the fourth Demon Rune, his left arm wrapped in Demon Pattern emitting a strong gravitational force. Demon intent and Primordial Qi from all around gathered to form a huge shadow of a demon fist.

Infusing massive Demon Pattern True Essence, he smashed down with one fist, sending up a gigantic black demon fist towards the sky.

This wide-ranging attack was difficult for the white-haired elder to dodge unless his speed could further increase to a level faster than the punch, but it was clearly impossible.

Boom!

The demon fist reached the white-haired elder and then violently exploded, forming a swirling black cloud that continually burst apart.

Having broken through the Middle Stage of Guiyuan Realm, Chen Yu’s “Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record” had reached the fifth layer, making this Demon Rune Battle Technique even more powerful.

“This person is very strong.”

The Copper Badge Holy Guard accompanying Chen Yu couldn’t help but think internally.

He was also a Copper Badge Holy Guard, but through their interactions over this period, he felt decidedly less capable than Chen Yu.

Swoosh!

From amidst the dark clouds, a figure in a red robe burst forth.

The elder with white hair had a deeply furrowed, grim face as he fled rapidly.

The strike from Chen Yu just now was immensely powerful and had impacted him, causing a momentary pause in his speed and allowing the people behind him to close the distance slightly.

“Where do you think you’re going?”

Jiang Boxiong bellowed, his sword shimmering with ripples of blue light.

Since they were already in pursuit, they might as well go all out to kill him.

“Blue Sea Sword Rain!”

Jiang Boxiong’s sword emitted a massive surge of blue Sword Qi that soared into the sky.

When the Sword Qi reached a certain height, it suddenly split into thousands of small blue Sword Qi, like a vast rain of swords, shooting downward.

Whiz, whiz, whiz!

The Sword Qi was incredibly dense, with dozens of them striking the white-haired elder.

At one point, his True Yuan Protection Shield was pierced, and a Sword Qi stabbed into his shoulder.

“Damn it, how are these people so strong?”

The white-haired elder was extremely frustrated.

These people were not only young but also had high levels of cultivation and strength, almost like those top talents from the Summoning Flame Realm. How did all these top talents suddenly show up here?

Immediately afterward, Chen Yu launched a Swallowing Cloud Demon Fist, further closing the distance to the white-haired elder.

Swoosh!

Jiang Boxiong lightly flicked his sword, sending a fast-moving streak of blue water light slicing towards the white-haired elder.

Madness Demon Slash!

Chen Yu swung the Demon Flood Dragon Sword, slashing down furiously.

Meanwhile, another Copper Badge Holy Guard wielded a long spear, thrusting out powerful, dark spear shadows.

“Fire Lion’s Fury.”

The white-haired elder spread his arms, a faint red light emanating from his body as he gathered the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi from within a hundred yards.

Hoo-hoo!

Above, flames surged and exploded continuously, forming a majestic and fierce Flame Lion Illusion.

Roar!

The Flame Lion roared and then fiercely pounced forward, its flame claws wildly swiping and its mouth snapping viciously.

Boom-bang-poom!

In the air, explosive sounds rang out continuously, shattering everyone’s attacks with the might of the Flame Lion.

But soon after, the Flame Lion slowly dissipated, and the white-haired elder’s momentum weakened a bit, his lips dry and pale.

“Playing with fire in front of this king, you’re courting death.”

The Red Flame King said arrogantly, and even Jiang Boxiong felt it was imposing.

Roar!

The Red Flame King roared, his body’s flames boiling and burning, slowly rising and condensing into a Flame Qilin Illusion.

The moment the Flame Qilin Illusion formed, it charged forward, continuously roaring and swallowing all the fire attribute powers around it, strengthening itself.

Boom-bang!

The Flame Qilin Illusion descended, colliding with the white-haired elder’s attack, exploding violently and creating a terrifying storm of flames.

“Such a profound mastery of the Fire Dao.”

The white-haired elder flew back in disarray, his face even paler.

The Red Flame King’s strike just now was stronger than he had anticipated.

“Die.”

Jiang Boxiong suddenly appeared on the white-haired elder’s right, thrusting out his sword with a surge of blue Sword Qi wrapped in layers of water light, rushing forward.

“Kill!”

Chen Yu also attacked, continuously swinging the Demon Flood Dragon Sword, unleashing a relentless barrage of fierce attacks.

Facing three people and a Spirit Pet on his own, the white-haired elder quickly became overburdened, unable to hold up, his combat strength waning.

To prevent him from making a desperate last stand and self-destructing, the group surrounded the elder, using long-range attacks to continually wear him down.

Before long, the white-haired elder was gravely injured, his body bathed in blood, one foot in the grave.

“No… I’m not willing…”

The white-haired elder roared skyward, a massive force brewing within him, preparing to self-destruct.

“Blue Water Soul Sword Strike!”

Jiang Boxiong seized the opportunity, his spiritual power surging and merging with his Sword Intent, slashing out a deep blue spiritual Sword Intent attack.

Whiz!

The ethereal blue sword Shadow pierced into the white-haired elder’s head, causing him a sharp mental pain, his body violently shaking.

At that moment, Chen Yu and another Copper Badge Holy Guard struck, slaying him!

“He’s killed.”

Chen Yu said lightly.

“Brother Chen, your strength is truly remarkable. You played a crucial role in this battle. For the distribution of the spoils, you take forty percent, and we two will take thirty percent each.”

Jiang Boxiong approached with a smile, initiating the conversation.

Chen Yu was slightly taken aback, not expecting such generosity.

During the battle with this Late Guiyuan Realm elder, Jiang Boxiong had been the main force.

What’s more puzzling was that the other Copper Badge Holy Guard had no complaints.

“If that’s the case, then I will humbly comply.”

Chen Yu accepted.

They then began distributing the spoils. The head of this Late Guiyuan Realm elder was given to Jiang Boxiong.

From his storage bag, there were also thirty-eight kilograms of Primordial Spirit Flame Crystals, with Chen Yu receiving fourteen kilograms and Jiang Boxiong and another person each getting twelve kilograms.

Next was the distribution of various rare materials, Primordial Stones, Elixirs, and so on…

“What are your plans next, Brother Chen? Should we continue hunting in the Guiyuan Realm, or return to the Holy Land stronghold?”

Jiang Boxiong asked, which concerned their next steps.
