#583 - Kill the Mid-heaven Half Saint
Jun Wuxie turned a deaf ear to the clamoring of those Lesser Heavenly Position Half-Saints.
“Lan Lan, hurry and recover!”
Jun Wuxie secretly instructed. Lan Lan's current realm meant that each use of her secret technique consumed a great deal of energy.
Afterward, he stepped to the center of the stone platform, and with a grab of each hand, Tian Ming and Gu Yin fell into his grasp.
These two Middle Heavenly Position Half-Saints were originally extremely powerful, and he could only barely contend with them using Lan Lan's divine ability.
But at this moment, their True Energy was being eroded by the Curse of Utmost Darkness, and their souls were also being eroded, almost to the point of losing themselves. Their souls were simply unable to control and drive their own energy.
In this situation, Jun Wuxie could manipulate them at will, but it would be difficult to directly kill them just like that.
This was because their flesh and blood were still filled with True Energy, making their defenses extremely strong.
Even if they couldn't fight back or actively defend, it would still take him a long time to beat a Middle Heavenly Position Half-Saint to death.
And he simply didn't have that much time to waste, because once they were completely controlled by the Curse of Utmost Darkness, they would become completely demonic and evil, becoming very terrifying. He would no longer have a chance!
But this moment was the perfect opportunity!
His hands each locked onto the necks of Tian Ming and Gu Yin, lifting them into the air.
Tian Ming and Gu Yin were suffering from the erosion of the Curse of Utmost Darkness, and still had some remaining soul consciousness that had not been obliterated. Facing Jun Wuxie lifting them up by the neck with one hand, they felt deeply humiliated.
“Ah!!”
They let out fierce roars, the sounds like the wails of a night owl, carrying the strangeness and violence of the Curse of Utmost Darkness.
“Jun Wuxie! How dare you treat us like this? Our sects will make you pay tenfold, a hundredfold!”
“Damn it, I'm not reconciled! How could I fall into the hands of you, a mere junior? You will not die a good death! You will not die a good death!”
They struggled, their hearts torn, both pained and unwilling.
“You bastards, as dignified Middle Heavenly Positions, you actually came to attack me, someone undergoing the Saint Tribulation, personally! You have no shame or bottom line! You thought you had everything under control, but you didn't expect to fall into my hands and become fish on a chopping board. How does it feel to fall from heaven into the abyss? Isn't it exhilarating?”
“Ah!!”
Tian Ming and Gu Yin's last shred of sanity, upon hearing these words, made their black hair stand on end in anger, their hatred splitting the sky!
How unwilling they were in their hearts! How could they, as dignified Middle Heavenly Positions, fall to such a state?
They were Middle Heavenly Position experts, standing tall in the clouds, looking down upon all living beings!
A mere junior who had just broken through to the Saint Realm had actually caused them to capsize in a gutter!
How could this be? How could this be allowed!
“You, Tian Ming, were so arrogant a few months ago, chasing me for hundreds of thousands of miles! At that time, you were high above, holding the power of life and death, how radiant and high-spirited were you? What's wrong? Now, besides howling with a torn heart, where is your power? Show it to me again, hmm?”
“And you, you were angry that I killed your Ancient Phoenix Sect's Lesser Heavenly Position Half-Saint? What right do you have to be angry, hmm? Your Ancient Phoenix Sect painstakingly plotted to kill me, so it's only natural that I kill you in return. What's with that look of hatred, as if someone defiled your wife and slept with your daughters?”
After Jun Wuxie finished speaking, he laughed wildly, laughing very recklessly.
Middle Heavenly Position Half-Saints, what terrifying experts, what lofty existences!
How powerful and overbearing they used to be!
But now they had fallen into his hands, and were about to pay the price for their foolish actions!
After he finished speaking, he ignored the last bit of struggling consciousness of Tian Ming and Gu Yin, directly communicating with the two Destiny Stars.
Instantly, the rotation speed of the Destiny Stars suddenly increased, causing the Congenital Taiji Star Ocean to spin rapidly along with it.
A terrifying devouring force was generated, frantically sucking the True Energy contaminated by the Curse of Utmost Darkness from Tian Ming and Gu Yin's bodies into his own.
How deep and pure was the True Energy of the two great Middle Heavenly Position Half-Saints?
It surged like a condensed river, pouring into his body through his hands.
The Congenital Taiji Star Ocean stripped the Curse of Utmost Darkness from the True Energy, directly sucking it into the Millstone of Annihilation of the ink-colored Taiji Star Ocean's Destiny Star for grinding.
The Primordial Gold Body Art circulated, forcibly transforming the True Energy of the two into Blood Qi, gathering it in the Divine Cave, and being ground by the golden Destiny Star's Millstone of Annihilation.
The golden Destiny Star constantly expanded, and then burst forth, the vast Blood Qi condensing into more stars, adorning the golden Taiji Star Ocean.
He could feel his life Blood Qi expanding, rapidly rising.
“Ah!! Damn brat, what are you doing? What are you doing?”
Tian Ming and Gu Yin let out sounds of shock and anger. Even though their souls were about to be completely devoured by Utmost Darkness, they still couldn't accept it when they discovered that their power was being sucked away by Jun Wuxie!
They would rather become evil demons and wreak havoc on the world than fulfill their enemy!
They struggled with all their might, wanting to control their own True Energy.
But the Curse of Utmost Darkness constantly attacked their souls, making it impossible for that remaining bit of consciousness to do so. They could only watch helplessly as their power was constantly sucked away, and within their Divine Caves, the stars dimmed and melted away.
Their bodies were gradually withering.
Those Lesser Heavenly Position Half-Saints originally thought that Jun Wuxie couldn't do anything to the Middle Heavenly Positions, couldn't harm their lives, and that the Middle Heavenly Position experts were about to become demonized, so he would soon be forced to let go and move away from the stone platform.
What they didn't expect was that their bodies were withering at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Only then did they realize that Jun Wuxie was actually devouring the True Energy and fleshly Blood Qi of the two Middle Heavenly Position Half-Saints!
What kind of method was this?
A Saint Realm cultivator could actually devour the energy of Middle Heavenly Position experts? This was simply like a fantastic tale!
Usually, only in situations where a higher realm absolutely crushed a lower realm could one forcibly suck away the other party's energy!
“Jun Wuxie! You… you dare to do such a thing that goes against the principles of heaven! You will definitely be rejected by the world!”
“Quickly release them! Absorbing the energy of your own kind, you will be despised by the world!”
Those Lesser Heavenly Position Half-Saints loudly rebuked and roared, but they could only stand in place and roar, not daring to step forward at all.
Jun Wuxie completely ignored the clamoring of those Lesser Heavenly Position Half-Saints, coldly watching Tian Ming and Gu Yin struggle in pain and despair in his hands.
His face was full of comfort.
The energy of Middle Heavenly Position Half-Saints was truly too pure! For him, this kind of energy resource was of excellent quality!
Within the Divine Cave, the Destiny Stars spurted out vast golden Blood Qi, pouring into the Star Ocean, and under the gravity within the Star Ocean, constantly condensing into stars.
At the same time, he circulated Blood Qi to temper his physical body, a series of operations proceeding simultaneously.
He could clearly feel his physical body becoming stronger, his realm rising rapidly!
With a boom.
In just a short moment, a tsunami-like momentum erupted from his body, and his aura rose greatly!
Saint Realm, Third Transformation!
In just a short moment, he directly broke through his realm!
Such a scene made the muscles on the faces of those Lesser Heavenly Position Half-Saints twitch, and they trembled with anger.
When they were in the Saint Realm, it took them a long time to break through a single realm, but this hateful junior in front of them, forcibly devouring the energy of their Middle Heavenly Position Half-Saints, actually broke through in such a short period of time!
His realm continued to rise, until it reached the peak of the Saint Realm Third Transformation, and then stopped.
It wasn't that he couldn't continue to improve, but that he forcibly stored the Blood Qi transformed from that energy in his flesh and blood.
Cultivating the Primordial Gold Body Art, every inch of his flesh and blood, every cell, was equivalent to a small Dantian, capable of storing a massive amount of energy.
Absorbing the energy of others, breaking through too many realms in a short period of time was not a good thing. It would lead to a floating realm, unstable foundations, and leave behind drawbacks.
His body was like an endless container!
In the past, he didn't dare to use his fleshly Blood Qi Dantian to store high-level energy.
At that time, the strength of his physical body was insufficient, and his fleshly Blood Qi Dantian was relatively fragile, easily causing problems.
But now it was different, he could be unscrupulous, unless the energy level was too high or too violent, it would not have any impact on his fleshly Blood Qi Dantian.
When Tian Ming and Gu Yin's True Energy loss and origin loss reached the point where their realm was about to fall below the Half-Saint realm, Jun Wuxie controlled the two Destiny Stars to forcibly devour the Curse of Utmost Darkness that was attacking their souls, allowing them to quickly regain their senses.
“You…”
Tian Ming and Gu Yin looked at him with shock, anger, humiliation, and hatred.
They couldn't believe that this junior could so easily suppress the Curse of Doomsday, stripping it from their Sea of Consciousness!
Jun Wuxie coldly glanced at them, and with a bang, threw them onto the stone platform, stepping on them one foot each, while his hands grabbed into the void.
The souls of Hun You and Jin Luo, whose consciousness was about to dissipate, were sucked into his hands, and he lifted them into the air by their necks.
Tian Ming and Gu Yin, trampled underfoot, watched as Hun You and Jin Luo's bodies gradually withered, letting out heart-wrenching roars and screams.
They seemed to see the various things they had just encountered, humiliation, anger, unwillingness, resentment, and other emotions burning in their bodies. For a time, they were so angry that their hearts were attacked, and they spat out a mouthful of old blood.
Who didn't revere existences like them?
Now, not only had most of their energy been sucked away, but they were also being trampled underfoot in public!
This person was just a Saint Realm cultivator who had just passed through the Heavenly Tribulation!
“Ah!! Great Heavenly Position, where are the Great Heavenly Position experts of my sect? Why don't you take action? How can you watch us suffer such humiliation! How can you!”
Tian Ming and Gu Yin were in a state worse than death, their voices filled with hatred resounding through the eight wastelands, the torment in their hearts making them extremely painful!
All the dignity of their lives was shattered today, trampled beyond recognition. The other party was just a Saint Realm initial stage, how could they not be unwilling? How could they not hate?
“Shut your damn mouths! You're too noisy!”
Jun Wuxie planted two feet directly on their faces, flattening their noses and faces.
With their cultivation realms fallen, no longer the Middle Heavenly Venerables they once were, they simply couldn't withstand Jun Wuxie's formidable power. All their teeth were crushed, mixed with blood, and gushed from their mouths.
"You… little… bastard… will… not… die… a good… death!"
They were consumed by hatred, cursing vehemently, but with all their front teeth shattered, air escaped freely, rendering their speech unintelligible.
"So what? You're being trampled and humiliated under my feet?"
Jun Wuxie chuckled. Having fallen to this state, they still spewed endless threats. What was the point?
Pfft!
The two were so enraged that they spat out mouthfuls of blood, nearly passing out.
Soon, the true energy and essence of Hun You and Jin Luo were devoured by him until their realms nearly fell below the Half-Sage level.
He even devoured the Dark Curse within their sea of consciousness, restoring their clarity. Facing their own miserable plight, the two powerhouses were heartbroken and unable to accept it!
"Hmm, your physical bodies are not bad; they can be used for medicinal refining!"
Jun Wuxie remarked coldly, startling the four men, their bodies trembling violently. They stared at him in disbelief, roaring, "What did you say? You demon! You're insane and will be punished!"
"I'm insane and will be punished? How many insane things have you done in your lives? Did you ever think you would be punished? Today's ending is your retribution. Must I have the heart of a Bodhisattva when dealing with people like you? Did you have your brains squeezed by a door?"
As he spoke, he directly enveloped the four with his blood energy, activated his Natal Star, and devoured them frantically.
The four screamed and struggled, but to no avail. Their eyes were filled with despair and resentment, their gazes like those of venomous snakes.
"So what if we die? Do you think you can escape the pursuit of our four sects? Ignorant fool, one day even the War Saint won't be able to protect you. We'll be waiting for you in the Yellow Springs, hahaha!"
They cackled maniacally.
Jun Wuxie sneered, absorbing their cultivation realms until they fell below the Ancestral Sovereign realm. He casually delivered several slaps, directly shattering their weakened souls into fragmented soul light, silencing their clamor.
The entire swamp fell silent, utterly still.
Jun Wuxie opened his Numinous Ring and collected the corpses of the four men. He stood on the hexagonal stone platform, his moon-white sword robe fluttering in the wind, his thick black hair flying, and surveyed the Lesser Heavenly Venerable Half-Sages whose faces were ashen, their eyes filled with murderous intent, trembling with rage.
"Now, it's your turn."
His tone was calm, yet it carried a terrifying killing intent.
"Hahaha! You little brat, you're just relying on the Crimson-Haired Demonic Entity. If we don't get close, you have nothing to rely on! Unless you can keep that Crimson-Haired Demonic Entity by your side forever!"
Those Lesser Heavenly Venerable Half-Sages were furious and laughed in extreme anger. Their Middle Heavenly Venerable powerhouses had been careless, or rather, they had never expected that the one named Jun could actually bring out the Crimson-Haired Demonic Entity.
But now they were prepared and would never fall for it!
"You? Are you worthy of me using the Crimson-Haired Demonic Entity against you?"
Jun Wuxie smiled, a brilliant, sunny smile. His clean, even teeth gleamed with a crystalline luster, making him look like a harmless, warm-hearted man.
"Hahaha! Ignorant child, stop talking and show us what you've got! If you have the guts, move away from that stone platform and come try?"
They were incredibly angry, almost exploding from his arrogance.
A junior in the early stage of the Saint Realm actually dared to be so arrogant. Without the Crimson-Haired Demonic Entity, he was nothing!
"Trying is dying!"
The brilliant smile on Jun Wuxie's face suddenly vanished. Golden blood energy surged into the high heavens, engulfing the sky, illuminating the thousand-mile swamp into a golden world!
He stepped across the sky, like a savage beast from the ancient times crossing through space and time. A sun-like fist imprint blasted forward, shaking the Eight Desolations, its fierce power overwhelming!
