- A moment later, a violent spatial fluctuation suddenly came from above the plaza. The sky shattered like a mirror, revealing a dark and deep crack.
The spatial rift had finally opened, and a terrifying suction force emanated from it, drawing the Soul Clan disciples one by one into it.
Looking at the scene before him, Hun Changqing couldn't help but marvel at the power of the Dou Sheng expert.
"I will soon reach that level, and I will surpass him!"
Hun Changqing clenched his fists, his eyes resolute. Although he was shocked by the power of the Dou Sheng expert,
his heart was filled with boundless ambition. He believed that he would reach that level in the near future; he had enough confidence in himself.
Calming his chaotic thoughts, Hun Changqing also walked towards the spatial rift, returning to the Soul Clan.
But suddenly, his whole body trembled, and he abruptly turned his head.
He saw Hun Feng approaching him from afar, holding a small red pestle in his hand, the pestle radiating a terrifying aura.
Hun Feng sneered at Hun Changqing,
"Hun Changqing, since you're so stubborn today, it means the possibility of you being of use to me is slim.
In that case, you have no value living, so die!"
Before Hun Changqing could react, the small pestle emitted a scarlet light.
In the blink of an eye, it was in front of Hun Changqing, about to strike him.
Hun Changqing immediately mobilized all his Taiyin True Qi, and Weak Water and Primordial Heavy Water instantly appeared, his battle qi armor instantly condensing.
The Taiyin True Qi frantically urged Weak Water to decompose the power of the red light, and the heavy water condensed into a shield, blocking Hun Changqing's path and resisting the approaching red light.
However, it was unclear what kind of treasure the small red pestle was, as it soon shattered the light shield formed by the Primordial Heavy Water.
The red light instantly struck Hun Changqing, his battle qi armor shattering instantly, and most of his body was melted by the red light.
Hun Changqing was then sent flying backward, crashing heavily into a stone pillar in the distant plaza before slamming to the ground.
At this moment, the left half of Hun Changqing's body was gone, his gruesome wound gushing blood incessantly; almost no part of his body, he resembled a vengeful ghost from hell, a truly pitiful sight.
The only good news was that his storage ring was on his right hand, and hadn't been melted away along with his body by the red light.
"Huh? You're actually not dead!"
Hun Feng exclaimed in surprise.
Hun Feng was shocked. He knew that the small pestle he had just used was forged by a high-level Dou Zun of his clan using materials and a magic core from an eighth-tier magical beast.
That red light was the extremely powerful exclusive fighting technique of that eighth-tier magical beast; although it didn't reach the power of the beast's attack, it was at least equivalent to the attack of a low-level Dou Zun.
Hun Feng never expected that Hun Changqing could survive such an attack.
Judging from Hun Changqing's appearance, it didn't seem like he had used any of the Soul Clan's exclusive life-saving fighting techniques.
Moreover, the Soul Clan's life-saving combat techniques are all incredibly precious, and the conditions for cultivating them are all incredibly demanding. Given Hun Changqing's status, he shouldn't be qualified to access those fighting techniques.
Hun Feng was extremely puzzled.
Hun Changqing, meanwhile, was in a miserable state, his heart filled with rage. He had never felt such a strong urge to kill anyone in his entire cultivation journey.
From birth, he possessed the Taiyin True Body, cultivated the Taiyin True Explanation, and possessed the Three Divine Waters.
He had never taken his peers seriously; even Xiao Yan, the chosen one, wasn't particularly valued in his eyes, whom he considered easily manipulated.
Hun Feng and Hun Yu were, in his eyes, two clowns whom he could easily suppress.
He even showed little respect for the powerful figures in his clan, confident that he would soon be able to look down upon them from afar.
Unexpectedly, he had suffered such a crushing defeat today. Looking at Hun Feng in the distance, the killing intent in his eyes was incredibly intense, almost tangible.
However, Hun Changqing wasn't blinded by anger. He hurriedly activated the Three Lights Divine Water within his body.
In an instant, a drop of water, interwoven with gold, silver, and purple, appeared before Hun Changqing's brow, then multiplied into countless droplets that enveloped his entire body.
Hun Changqing's body radiated a tri-colored light, and the bleeding from all his wounds ceased instantly.
New flesh sprouted from his wounds, healing at a visible speed.
Looking at Hun Feng, who was rapidly approaching him from a distance, Hun Changqing gave him a cold glance, then swiftly disappeared into a spatial rift not far behind him.
Seeing that Hun Changqing had escaped, Hun Feng could only give up in frustration. He had thought his attack was a sure thing.
Ever since failing to obtain the Corrosive Yin Fruit from Hun Changqing, his already fierce and violent nature had been wracked with murderous intent.
He believed that Hun Changqing's defiance now meant he would be unruly and uncontrollable in the future, so he simply eliminated this unstable element.
Although there were explicit rules against fighting in this plaza, he was no longer in his clan's territory.
However, if he could kill Hun Changqing with a single blow here, who could possibly cause him trouble as the direct descendant of the Soul Emperor?
He had already sensed that Hun Changqing was at the peak of the Dou Huang realm, and
he only had one chance to launch a sneak attack. To ensure a fatal blow, he didn't use his full strength, instead taking out a treasure given to him by the Soul Emperor.
But he never expected that Hun Changqing wouldn't die after taking that terrifying red light; instead, while he was still stunned, Hun Changqing successfully entered the spatial rift and escaped.
"Was that... Hun Changqing? Why would Prince Hun Feng suddenly attack Hun Changqing?"
"Who knows? Maybe he offended Prince Hun Feng somewhere. I've noticed Prince Hun Feng's expression is always unpleasant whenever he sees Hun Changqing."
"This Hun Changqing is courting death. He's arrogant just because he has some talent, daring to offend Prince Hun Feng. Doesn't he know who he is?" "
Exactly! Hun Changqing's days in the clan are going to be tough. A genius might just perish."
"Hmph, he brought it on himself. Besides, what kind of genius is he? His bloodline isn't even rank-one. He's advancing quickly now because of his talent, but he'll be helpless when he reaches the Dou Zun or Dou Sheng level. And who knows if he'll even have a future!"
Everything that happened happened in an instant, starting suddenly and ending just as suddenly. Before anyone could react, Hun Changqing had already escaped.
The crowd, now recovered, were buzzing with discussion, their eyes filled with mockery as they looked in the direction Hun Changqing had gone.
