The Supreme Being Against Heaven
Chapter Summary
At the same time, within the bamboo forest behind Changling Immortal Mountain, inside a solitary courtyard, Shen Qingfeng, who had been meditating cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes! “You injured my younger brother so brutally.” “And now you’ve destroyed my hand as well.” “This hatred—cannot coexist under the same sky!” “Tan Yun, I know you want to kill me too.” “In that case, why don’t we give each other a fair chance—without violating sect rules?” “In the outer sect, life-and-death battles...
“Yes, yes!”
“Hmph! What do you mean ‘yes’?”
“From what I heard, 7 days ago, Senior Sister Tantai from our Alchemy lineage stepped into the ‘Soul Refinement Realm’ and was promoted to a disciple of the Immortal Sect!”
“If that’s the case, it should now be the ‘13 Great Beauties’!”
“...”
When it came to beautiful women—
it was always a popular topic among male disciples.
The more they talked, the more excited they became, completely forgetting everything around them.
As the topic shifted to the “13 Great Beauties of the Inner Sect,”
even the miscellaneous disciples spoke animatedly, spittle flying everywhere!
For a moment,
laughter echoed across the foothills of Changling Immortal Mountain...
“Tan Yun, get out here!”
Suddenly—
a roar filled with boundless fury thundered down from the sky!
The smiles on the faces of the miscellaneous disciples froze instantly!
Everyone looked up toward the source of the voice—
only to see a tall, imposing young man in red standing atop a spirit cauldron,
holding a golden spear, hovering above the residential area of the miscellaneous disciples!
At the same time,
within the bamboo forest behind Changling Immortal Mountain,
inside a solitary courtyard,
Shen Qingfeng, who had been meditating cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes!
His white hair fluttered,
and his spiritual sense spread across the entire Changling Immortal Mountain like an invisible tide!
“That kid… just as my second brother said—he never stays quiet wherever he goes.”
He murmured to himself,
while observing the situation near the residential area with his divine sense.
“This is bad! Li Zian is here!”
“What do we do… what do we do!”
“...”
The miscellaneous disciples panicked,
instinctively gathering together like a flock of startled birds!
Standing atop the cauldron,
Li Zian swung his spear and pointed it directly at Tan Yun,
roaring with rage,
“You bastard! You dared to injure my younger brother!”
“Today, I’ll make sure you’d rather be dead than alive!”
Amidst the overwhelming pressure,
Tan Yun remained calm,
his cold gaze locked onto his opponent as he spoke word by word—
“Since you’re here…”
“Then leave your life behind!”
“Harmony Divine Eyes!”
In an instant—
under the dark night,
2 eerie crimson beams shot out from Tan Yun’s eyes!
Like tangible blood vessels,
they pierced straight into Li Zian’s eyes!
Li Zian felt a sharp pain in his head,
his vision instantly blurred!
“Whoosh!”
Tan Yun shot upward like an arrow!
With a flick of his wrist, he unleashed a dazzling curtain of sword light,
enveloping Li Zian within it!
At the critical moment,
Li Zian violently shook his head, regaining clarity,
and saw the sword light closing in!
He quickly tilted his head to dodge—
the blade sliced off strands of his hair!
“You bastard! You’ve cultivated an eye technique!”
Li Zian roared,
as lightning bolts the size of bowls surged and coiled around his body!
He thrust his spear forward ferociously,
aiming straight for Tan Yun’s throat!
“Clang!”
Tan Yun raised his flying sword to block,
sparks flying everywhere!
But his low-grade flying sword—
was pierced through and shattered in an instant!
The spear tip continued thrusting toward his throat once more!
At this moment,
Tan Yun’s spiritual sense was already close to the “Great Perfection of the Embryonic Soul Realm.”
Thus,
after using the “Harmony Divine Eyes,”
it had little effect on Li Zian anymore!
“Hongmeng Divine Step!”
In a split second,
Tan Yun’s body was enveloped in rapidly swirling pale golden spiritual energy!
Just as the spear was about to pierce his throat—
his figure vanished!
And instantly reappeared behind Li Zian!
His right fist blasted forward with full force,
striking toward Li Zian’s back!
Li Zian snorted coldly,
his face filled with disdain.
He controlled the cauldron beneath his feet to spin around,
turning to face Tan Yun.
His left hand transformed into a claw,
lightning flowing between his 5 fingers,
as he grabbed the incoming fist and roared—
“Break!”
“Boom… crack!”
Claw met fist!
The sound of bones breaking rang out clearly!
The explosive force, combining lightning and pale golden spiritual energy,
erupted in the low sky like a radiant nebula!
Or like a golden wheel infused with lightning,
blooming in the night!
The immense shockwave spread outward at incredible speed,
shattering the surrounding green bamboo forest!
Leaves scattered and fell like rain!
“Ahh! Impossible!”
“You’re just an ant at Level 7 of the Nascent Soul Realm—how can you injure me?!”
Midair,
Li Zian’s face twisted in agony as blood splattered!
The left hand he was confident would crush Tan Yun’s fist—
was instead shattered instantly upon impact with a punch powerful enough to destroy a mid-grade spirit weapon!
Under the dim moonlight…
The 5 severed fingers—
shattered piece by piece in midair!
“Whoosh!”
A streak of light shot out from Tan Yun’s storage ring,
transforming into a flying sword that appeared beneath his feet, enveloped in spiritual energy.
Standing atop the sword,
Tan Yun fixed his gaze firmly on Li Zian, his expression solemn.
He knew well—
that the reason he had been able to injure his opponent just now
was entirely due to the other party’s carelessness!
At the same time,
from the way Li Zian had regained his senses and counterattacked so swiftly after that first strike,
it was enough to prove—
that Li Zian truly deserved his title as a genius disciple of the 12th Elder!
After Tan Yun used the “Hongmeng Divine Step,”
Li Zian’s speed—was hardly inferior to his own!
There was no doubt—
this was the strongest opponent Tan Yun had faced since entering the Nascent Soul Realm!
But even though victory was uncertain,
even though life and death hung by a thread—
Tan Yun had no intention of retreating!
Thinking of how Li Zian had sent Cheng Yaozuan to kill him, and now had personally come to strike,
Tan Yun’s eyes filled with killing intent!
A boundless murderous aura surged forth!
Tonight—no matter the cost,
he would kill Li Zian!
On the other side,
Li Zian’s intent was no different!
Despite enduring the pain of his shattered hand,
he stood atop the cauldron,
staring coldly at Tan Yun.
“You injured my younger brother so brutally.”
“And now you’ve destroyed my hand as well.”
“This hatred—cannot coexist under the same sky!”
“Tan Yun, I know you want to kill me too.”
“In that case, why don’t we give each other a fair chance—without violating sect rules?”
“In the outer sect, life-and-death battles must be fought on the arena.”
“But in the inner sect—battles can happen anytime, anywhere!”
“I, Li Zian, challenge you—Tan Yun—to a fight to the death!”
“If you have the courage—will you accept?!”
Tan Yun’s expression turned cold.
“I was thinking the same. Why wouldn’t I—”
Before he could finish the word “accept”—
an aged voice filled with urgency suddenly rang out!
“Boy! Do NOT accept!”
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
Under the night sky,
a figure shot over from the mountainside!
In the blink of an eye,
Shen Qingfeng appeared beneath Tan Yun, who stood on his flying sword!
He spoke anxiously,
“Boy! The reason you managed to injure him just now is because he didn’t understand the strength of your physical body!”
“You must understand this!”
“He is a disciple of the 12th Elder—his strength ranks within the top 30!”
“You are definitely not his match!”
“Do NOT accept the challenge!”
“Don’t forget—my second brother’s life is tied to yours!”
“You must be cautious every step of the way!”
Before Tan Yun could respond,
Li Zian looked down at Shen Qingfeng with a cold expression,
then cupped his hands slightly.
“Steward Shen, allow this disciple to remind you—”
“According to sect rules, battles between inner disciples cannot be interfered with by others.”
“Please understand.”
“Li Zian!”
Shen Qingfeng roared,
“Even your master must show me respect!”
“Who do you think you are, to dare lecture me on what I should do?!”
Shen Qingfeng knew very well—
if Tan Yun died,
Shen Qingqiu would also die from the poisonous oath!
How could he not be anxious?!
“Steward Shen, please calm your anger. This disciple knows he was wrong—I will take my leave.”
Li Zian feigned fear,
but inwardly cursed nonstop—
“With that old man here, I can’t make a move against Tan Yun… I’ll have to wait for another opportunity!”
“Don’t you dare act arrogantly in my Ling Shan Herb Garden again!”
Shen Qingfeng snorted coldly.
“Get lost!”
“This disciple takes his leave…”
Just as Li Zian was about to step onto his cauldron and leave—
suddenly!
Tan Yun’s eyes sharpened,
and he shouted loudly—
“Wait!”
“I accept the challenge!”
