"Ahh.."

Jian Lei shrieked miserably as his back was pierced through by the dark sword. He wanted to avoid the attack, but he was powerless. He could only watch as the dark sword pierced through his back and coming out of his chest.

Meanwhile, time seemed to freeze as everyone became dumbfounded at the unraveling scene. They no longer dared to believe their own eyes.

Everyone's mouth was gaping; they couldn't close them for a long time. The great elders watching the fight on the sideline were frightened until their faces were deathly pale.

"Impossible!" Elder Zhuo's heart sank from fear as he witnessed this unbelievable scene.

His legs shivered from fear while his heart thumpingly told him to escape. He knew that he had provoked a demon god.

Not only him, but All the remaining great elders also became pale with horror after seeing this scene. The sect master's cultivation was the strongest throughout the sect, except for the ancestor, yet he was defeated by the little devil. His defeat alone was enough to show them just how powerful Ling Chen had become.

While the great elders as well the disciples that were watching the fight were struggling to accept this reality, Jian Lei was also going through the same thing as well.

"How is this possible!" Jian Lei said in astonishment with a pale expression on his face before he spat out a mouthful of blood.

At this moment, Jian Lei already knew that his life was over as he was at the mercy of Ling Chen. He didn't know why, but the moment the dark sword pierced through his back, all of his cultivation bases was sealed as he couldn't access his True Qi energy anymore.

He didn't know if it was done intentionally or unintentionally, but when the dark sword pierced through his back, some of the corrosive dark True Qi energy dissolve from the sword and spread within his body.

The murderous dark true Qi energy acted like blades as they crazily lacerated his internal organs and his meridians.

Even with his powerful and immense true Qi energy, he was still unable to drive them out of his body or handle their destructive and corrosive power.

However, this wasn't what he was worried about, the thing that preoccupied him the most was trying to figure out how Ling Chen was able to see through his thousand Dao Illusionary cleaving Sword battle technique.

"This is not possible, my thousand Dao Illusionary cleaving Sword has never failed before. Even when using magical gazes, one wouldn't be able to see through it. You, you, how did you do it!"

Jian Lei's thousand Dao Illusionary cleaving Sword was a nameless rank battle technique. It was also his signature move as he had used it to defeat countless opponents.

It was considered nameless because even Jian Lei didn't know what rank it belonged to. This technique didn't belong to the sect. It was a battle technique he had stumbled upon when he was exploring an old ruin from the Heaven Suppression Region.

No one was able to see through this technique even if that person some type of Eye battle technique that allowed one to see through illusion.

Only the ancestor was able to see through this battle technique and that was because he was already a Half-Saint powerhouse.

Even Elder Zhuo who had cultivated a powerful Eye Battle Technique known as Divine Gaze wasn't able to see through his illusion.

However, his time-tested thousand Dao Illusionary cleaving Sword had met its nemesis. With a single glance, Ling Chen was able to see through it. This was simply too unbelievable.

Elder Zhuo and the other great elders were just as surprised. Some of them cultivated powerful Eye battle technique that allowed to see through illusions and still were unable to through the sect's master thousand Dao Illusionary cleaving Sword. They had no way of distinguishing between true and false when Jian Lei used that battle technique. It was so powerful that the people that could defend against it could be counted on one hand.

However, this powerful battle technique was not a match to Ling Chen's eyes. This was simply inconceivable to the utmost extent.

"As I told you earlier, using illusion to fight me is simply displaying one's slight skill before an expert." Ling Chen said with a disdainful smile on his face.

It's indeed true, with Ling Chen's left eye power, he could even see the various elemental true Qi in the air let alone a small illusion.

"Now, it's time to send you off." Ling Chen said as he was about to use his devouring ability to devour Jian Lei's blood and life essence.

His left hand that had the dark long sword suddenly turned to normal. At the same time, the nails on his fingers turned dark and became five inches longer like a beast claw.

Swoosh!

When he was on the verge of piercing through Jian Lei's heart with his beastly left hand, the space around him ripple, and Elder Zhuo suddenly appeared right behind his back. With a cold glint, he plunged a short sword straight towards Ling Chen's back.

The stab was simply too fast and Ling Chen had no time to dodge it.

"That little bastard is dead for sure!" All of the disciples, as well as the elders, already assumed that Ling Chen's fate was sealed when they saw Elder Zhuo's timely sneak attack.

At this moment, Elder Zhuo was ecstatic as he felt his short sword piercing through Ling Chen's back.

However, the next moment, the complexion of the elders suddenly changed as they couldn't believe their eyes.

Ling Chen, with one hand, was still holding Jian Lei by the neck like a chicken, while he used the other one to catch elder Zhuo's short sword.

" I almost fell asleep while waiting for your sword to stab my back." Ling Chen turned around and smilingly said to elder Zhuo.

The initially ecstatic elder Zhuo was now completely frightened due to Ling Chen. At this time, he recognized that the short sword did not pierce through Ling Chen flesh, it was caught by his left hand while he was still facing Jian Lei

At this moment, Elder Zhuo had truly realized that he had kicked an iron plate.

As such, without any hesitation, the aghast elder Zhuo turned around to run, but before he could escape, Ling Chen's beastly claws had already pierced through his chest.

Puchi!

"No!" Elder Zhuo exclaimed with a shocked expression, but he was powerless. His eyes flashed hints of bewilderment and regrets. He did not understand how he had fallen.

Swoosh!

In less than a second, a gush of pure energy and blood was transferred from Ling Chen's fingernails into his body. Meanwhile, Elder Zhuo's body was being drained and depleted like a balloon at an astonishing speed.

Feeling the pure energy coming from his fingernails to his body, a light smiled curved into his lips

" I miss this feeling." Ling Chen whispered to himself as he was enjoying the moment.

The abrupt change happened too quickly, rendering the other elders to be shocked.

Seeing the events that transpired right before their eyes, they felt a cold chill that reverberated throughout their bodies!

At the same time, they were also happy that it wasn't them. They wanted to sneak attack Ling Chen when he was preoccupied with the sect master, but they didn't have the guts to do it.

After he was done absorbing the blood and life essence of elder Zhuo, Ling Chen threw away his dried corpse like a bag of trash.

"Now, it's your time." Ling Chen said as he shifted his gaze towards the deathly pale Jian Lei who didn't have the strength to even lift his finger, let alone fight back.

However, before he could act again.

"Junior, stay your hand!"

A voice, akin to thunder in the sky, rang across the inner sect region; no one could resist the authority contained within that voice. It was as though it had the power to pierce straight to the soul.

Upon hearing that voice, the previously horrified great elders suddenly became ecstatic as they simultaneously shouted:

" Ancestor!"
