Chapter 158: Burning Everything

Most of the people on the flying vessel were Jin Xuan's guards. Aside from the Heavenly Immortal guard who had just been killed, there were six more Heavenly Immortal guards, plus Shadow, a half-step True Immortal cultivator. In the Chaotic Star Domain, only those factions with True Immortals could contend with such a force.

"Kill!"

The guards exchanged glances, their eyes filled with solemnity. The six of them moved into a formation that subtly aligned with the Six Harmonies, closing in on Li Changsheng.

Meanwhile, Shadow stood protectively by Jin Xuan's side, a hint of worry hidden in his eyes.

Although he knew that the Crown Prince must have some trump cards, if anything happened to Jin Xuan, his own fate would be miserable.

"Boom!"

Li Changsheng, wielding the three-pointed, double-edged spear, charged directly at the six Heavenly Immortal guards. Although he didn't intend to use the Sky-Swallowing Sword Art or the Great Strength Ox Demon King's techniques, his physical body was now incredibly powerful. Even the simplest strike from him could severely injure a Heavenly Immortal, let alone the fact that he still had other methods at his disposal.

Blades of sword light erupted from the three-pointed spear, clashing with the attacks unleashed by the six Heavenly Immortal guards. A powerful shockwave immediately swept out in all directions, shattering nearby planetary debris into dust.

Even Jin Xuan's flying vessel was rocked violently. If not for several cultivators desperately channeling their true essence to stabilize it, the shockwave would have easily capsized the vessel.

"Bang!"

After an exchange of blows, the figure in black stood tall, holding the three-pointed spear. The six Heavenly Immortal guards who had faced him were sent flying by a single strike, crashing into nearby floating meteorites.

"Pfft!"

The six spat out mouthfuls of blood.

The strength of this young man in black was too terrifying. If any one of them faced him alone, they would be instantly killed.

"This brat's strength is slightly weaker than that ox demon, but he's still strong enough to rank on the Profound Yellow Earth List!"

Shadow's expression was grave as he whispered:

"Your Highness, I'll go deal with him. Once he's taken care of, we should leave immediately. I fear our location has been exposed, and someone is targeting us."

The Profound Yellow Earth List had only thirty spots, and those who made the list were all top-tier geniuses of their respective realms. Even in the Demon Court, such figures held status no lower than the Crown Princes. Normally, they were rarely seen, yet this time, they had encountered two.

"Go!"

Jin Xuan coldly uttered a single word, his eyes filled with frost.

A mere Heavenly Immortal dared to ambush him? Did they think the Demon Court's Crown Prince was made of clay?

Upon hearing this, Shadow took a step forward, a long blade appearing in his hand. With a fierce slash, he sent a terrifying blade light toward the mysterious young man in black.

He wasn't accustomed to using weapons, but his arms had just regenerated and weren't as strong as before.

The blade light shot out, obliterating everything in its path.

Seeing this, the six Heavenly Immortal guards suppressed their discomfort and each summoned their immortal tools, launching them at the figure in black.

"I, the Clear Source Marvelous Dao True Lord Yang Jian, never act without certainty. With just a few of you trash, you think you can stop me from killing?"

Li Changsheng sneered.

"Bang!"

With a sweep of the three-pointed spear, Li Changsheng shattered the dazzling blade light.

Then, his figure vanished, reappearing instantly beside Shadow. The three-pointed spear thrust directly at Shadow's forehead.

"Crack!"

Shadow was startled and quickly raised his blade to block.

"Boom!"

A tremendous force erupted from where their weapons clashed, sending Shadow flying backward.

"What kind of monster is this?"

Shadow's face showed shock. The young man in black had physical strength no less than that of the Great Strength Ox Demon King. Although the three-pointed spear was only a quasi-immortal tool, that single strike had left a crack in his immortal-grade blade.

If not for the fact that the young man's cultivation techniques and aura were completely different from the Great Strength Ox Demon King's, Shadow would have suspected they were the same person!

"Kill!"

Seeing the young man in black strike again, Shadow let out a loud shout and charged forward with his blade.

"Boom!"

The two clashed and separated, each being sent flying several kilometers before turning into two streaks of light and colliding again.

The six Heavenly Immortal guards stood nearby, their eyes filled with awe.

Although they were considered experts in the Demon Court, in the face of the battle between this Heavenly Immortal youth and Shadow, they couldn't even intervene.

"Is this all the Demon Court's Crown Prince has for protection?"

Li Changsheng's voice was cold.

Back at Golden Lion Mountain, Shadow hadn't been a match for him even without going all out, let alone now when Shadow's injuries hadn't fully healed. Although Li Changsheng couldn't unleash his full strength now, he was still more than Shadow could handle.

"Attack together!"

"Restrain him!"

Shadow roared, his body glowing with blood-red light as he began burning his life essence to fight Li Changsheng.

Seeing this, the others didn't hesitate and attacked together, bombarding Li Changsheng with their techniques.

Even the cultivators on the flying vessel who hadn't reached the Heavenly Immortal realm joined in, not hoping to make a significant impact but merely attempting to slow down the mysterious man in black.

If Shadow, the strongest among them, fell, they would all be annihilated!

"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!"

The void trembled.

A figure in black could be seen darting through space, disappearing into the void and reappearing elsewhere, causing all the attacks to miss their mark.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

With every slash of Li Changsheng's spear, a cultivator was turned to dust.

Only Heavenly Immortals and above could survive a single strike from him, and even then, they were severely injured.

Those below the Heavenly Immortal realm were instantly reduced to clouds of blood mist upon contact with the spear's light.

In just a dozen breaths, three of the six Heavenly Immortal guards had died, and more than a dozen cultivators below the Heavenly Immortal realm had perished.

"This man is beyond us…"

"Your Highness, use your trump card now!"

"Your Highness…"

The followers were terrified, not daring to approach the battlefield. Yet, people continued to fall one after another.

The figure in black, wielding the three-pointed spear, was like a reaper walking through the void, effortlessly harvesting lives!

"Your Highness!"

Even Shadow couldn't help but call out. At this point, he was in a miserable state, with several deep wounds reaching the bone. Although they weren't fatal, the fact that he had been injured so severely in a group fight proved that this young man was beyond their ability to handle.

"A bunch of trash!"

Jin Xuan snorted coldly, and a golden feather appeared in his hand.

As soon as the feather appeared, the temperature of the void skyrocketed. A wave of heat radiated outward from Jin Xuan, spreading in all directions.

"Ah!"

"Ahhh…"

Several cultivators with weaker cultivation levels immediately burst into flames, turning to ash in an instant, not even leaving behind residue.

This…

The others' faces changed drastically, and they immediately channeled their true essence to resist the heat.

But it was too late.

"Boom!"

Wherever the heat wave passed, everything was set ablaze.
