"Five Elements Destruction!"
Tan Yun's body was infused with the brilliant heavenly dao power of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, which violently surged into the primordial chaos god-slaying sword in his hand!
Tan Yun danced swiftly in the vast snowy sky, wielding five swords!
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—"
In an instant, five different attributes of heavenly dao power sword aura erupted from the primordial chaos god-slaying sword, rapidly merging in the void to form a long, multicolored sword aura of Five Elements, stretching six thousand zhang as it fiercely slashed toward the towering golden spear that was charging at him!
With a thunderous “boom,” a sound reminiscent of ancient times echoed as the Five Elements sword aura collided with the tip of the golden spear!
“Ah…”
A heart-wrenching sound of despair emerged from the Sky-Piercing Golden Spear, scaring Yang Zhong, who was wielding a large knife and rushing toward Tan Yun, nearly out of his wits!
Yang Zhong realized that after the tip of the golden spear was struck by the Five Elements sword aura, although the sword aura promptly dissipated, enormous cracks suddenly erupted at the spear tip, and these cracks rapidly spread along the length of the spear!
As the golden spear began to crack, Zhuo Hong, inside the spear, experienced a rapid spread of fractures starting from his head, moving down to his neck, torso, and throughout his body!
“No… no!” Zhuo Hong, covered in blood, revealed a look of reluctance and despair in his almost bursting eyes, “I don’t want to die… I have cultivated for thirty-three thousand years just to barely become a seventh layer in the transcendence realm, and I am so close to transcendence and ascension. I cannot die!”
“Brother Yang, save me… please save me!”
As Zhuo Hong’s cries for help echoed in his ears, tears streamed uncontrollably from Yang Zhong’s eyes. Originally rushing toward Tan Yun, he suddenly turned around, soaring into the sky while shouting in sorrow:
“Zhuo, dear brother, we are fellow townsmen, bonded like brothers. I want to save you, but you should know that my strength is still slightly inferior to yours!”
“It’s not that I am unwilling to save you, but I simply cannot… I’m sorry, I’m so sorry!”
Upon hearing this, Zhuo Hong, inside the golden spear filled with cracks, bled tears as he shouted, “Brother Yang, I understand, I understand everything! You don’t have to apologize. You must escape and tell the sovereign to avenge me… avenge me…”
Zhuo Hong’s voice abruptly cut off as the Sky-Piercing Golden Spear and his body shattered into pieces, scattering in the snowy sky.
And his eight immortal fetuses had not even managed to escape his body before being obliterated without a trace.
Like a mountain, Tan Yun held the primordial chaos god-slaying sword, gazing at Yang Zhong, who was fleeing toward the summit of Zhongnan Immortal Mountain. A smile curved at the corner of his mouth as he coldly remarked, “Since you say you are like brothers, this sovereign thinks you should accompany him on his journey to the underworld!”
“Give up your dying struggle. If you could escape, then I wouldn’t be Tan Yun. Leave your life behind!”
Upon hearing this, Yang Zhong, who had now fled above Tan Yun, amongst the layers of the Sea of Clouds, cursed, “You bastard! Though I cannot defeat you, don’t think you can catch me!”
Ignoring the curse, Tan Yun deemed it pointless to argue with a dying man.
“Primordial divine step!”
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—”
Tan Yun suddenly performed the primordial divine step, his massive figure flickering into the sky above the Sea of Clouds. With each flicker, he crossed fifteen thousand miles of void, and after six flashes, he appeared a thousand miles behind the fleeing Yang Zhong!
“Whoosh!” Instantly, Tan Yun transformed into a fire dragon-like flame, piercing through the void of over ten thousand miles, and in an instant, he appeared above Yang Zhong, taking human form and calmly saying, “Time to die!”
