The Supreme Being Against Heaven
Chapter Summary
“Tan Yun… you are truly courageous!” “I never expected that you would actually dare to come and rescue Xue Ziyan!” That familiar voice made Tan Yun’s heart suddenly tremble! Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately released his spiritual power, wrapped Xue Ziyan in his arms, and used the Primordial Divine Step to flee at once! “It is precisely because I am Senior Sister Mu’s best friend…” “that you must let me go!” “Senior Sister Mu loves you very much…” “To me, she is like a real older ...
Tan Yun rescued Xue Ziyan and accidentally discovered that a Fire Element Seed was hidden underground. This discovery made him extremely excited.
In his heart, he immediately made a decision.
One day, he would definitely return here to dig out that Fire Element Seed and use it to nourish his Primordial Flame!
But at that very moment—
a low, beast-like roar echoed throughout the withered forest.
“Tan Yun… you are truly courageous!”
“I never expected that you would actually dare to come and rescue Xue Ziyan!”
That familiar voice made Tan Yun’s heart suddenly tremble!
Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately released his spiritual power, wrapped Xue Ziyan in his arms, and used the Primordial Divine Step to flee at once!
His figure flashed rapidly through the withered forest.
With every movement, he could leap as far as 30 chi.
With the massive support of spiritual power, his speed increased astonishingly!
He did not summon his Blood-Winged Spirit Lion to escape.
Although it was a Level 1 flying spirit beast that had already reached adulthood,
its cultivation level was still too low. If Murong Kun, who was at Level 1 of the Nascent Soul Realm, chased after them, he could easily kill it!
Within a short period of time,
with spiritual power enhancing his body, Tan Yun’s escape speed was 30% faster than the Blood-Winged Spirit Lion.
Suddenly,
another roar filled with hatred sounded from behind!
“Tan Yun!”
“When Mu Mengyi returned to the sect from Meteor City, she had already been poisoned by the Soul-Destroying Powder I secretly planted!”
“If it weren’t for a bastard like you interfering, she would already be my woman by now!”
“And once, you even dared to injure my ear!”
“Today I will skin you alive and tear you into pieces!”
This was a meeting between mortal enemies.
The eyes of both sides burned with intense hatred!
Murong Kun stood on a flying sword.
He rushed out from the cave, flying rapidly across the withered forest,
chasing after Tan Yun who was about 1,000 chi ahead.
The distance between them was shrinking rapidly!
Before long,
Murong Kun had already closed the distance to less than 300 chi!
He looked down at Tan Yun, who was fleeing below,
his eyes filled with killing intent.
Yet deep within that gaze was a trace of shock.
He never expected that
a cultivator at the great perfection stage of the Spirit Embryo Realm like Tan Yun could reach such speed!
At the same time,
he understood even more clearly that
Tan Yun must die!
Otherwise,
if the other party were to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm in the future,
he might no longer be his opponent!
After rushing out of the withered forest,
Xue Ziyan, who was in Tan Yun’s arms, looked up at him with gratitude.
She said anxiously,
“Tan Yun!”
“Whether in power or speed, you cannot compare with Murong Kun!”
“Don’t worry about me. Put me down and escape to save your life!”
Tan Yun replied firmly,
“You are not only Mengyi’s friend,
but also my friend, Tan Yun’s friend!”
“How could I abandon you!”
He clenched his teeth before continuing,
“Moreover, I already promised Mengyi that I would bring you back!”
“And since it is a promise, I must fulfill it!”
“Tan Yun!”
Xue Ziyan shouted with all her strength.
Her eyes gradually turned red,
and a tear slid down her pale cheek.
Her voice trembled.
“It is precisely because I am Senior Sister Mu’s best friend…”
“that you must let me go!”
“Senior Sister Mu loves you very much…”
“To me, she is like a real older sister.”
“If you die because of me… what will happen to her!”
“Tan Yun… please let me go!”
“If I’m not here, at least you can still comfort her!”
“But if she loses both of us at the same time…”
“her heart will surely shatter!”
“And who will remain to comfort her…”
Every word Xue Ziyan spoke
came straight from her heart.
And every sentence she said
was like a blade stabbing deep into Tan Yun’s heart!
Finally,
Tan Yun spoke in a low voice,
“Fine…”
“I promise you.”
“If we truly reach a dead end, I will escape to save my life.”
He clenched his teeth tightly.
“But before the final moment…”
“I will never give up—”
However,
before he could finish speaking,
Murong Kun, standing on his flying sword in the sky,
appeared behind him at a distance of only 100 chi.
A mocking laugh sounded.
“Heh heh… how touching.”
“So touching that I’m about to cry!”
“Hahaha!”
Then he spat disdainfully.
“And you still say you will never give up?”
“Ridiculous!”
His voice suddenly turned cold.
“Die!”
Murong Kun stood on his flying sword
and extended his right hand, pushing toward the air in front of him!
Suddenly,
the space ahead began to tremble!
A thick bolt of red-white lightning tore through the air
and shot violently toward Tan Yun’s back!
Its speed
was even faster than Tan Yun using the Primordial Divine Step!
At such a critical moment,
in order to prevent the weakened Xue Ziyan from being struck by the lightning,
Tan Yun immediately shifted his body to the left
and threw Xue Ziyan forward!
Boom!
Tan Yun could not evade in time.
The violent lightning power, filled with terrifying pressure,
struck his right arm directly!
Pu! Pu!
A mist of blood burst out from Tan Yun’s right arm.
His body was blasted by the force of the explosion and sent tumbling through the air.
Zzz… Zzz…
Thin strands of electric current spread across his entire body!
“Tan Yun!”
Xue Ziyan, who had been thrown into the air, cried out with a trembling voice.
“Don’t worry about me—run!”
“Remember… tell Senior Sister Mu for me…”
“If there is a next life, she and I will still be best friends!”
“I hope the 2 of you can live happily together… love each other forever… and never be separated again!”
Murong Kun looked at Xue Ziyan with a vicious expression
and snorted coldly.
“You wretched woman!”
“You’re about to die and you’re still blessing them?”
“Let me tell you something!”
“Today, none of you will survive!”
“After killing both of you, I’ll go back and properly deal with that slut Mu Mengyi!”
Suddenly,
he struck out with his palm fiercely!
Lightning power exploded with the sound of the air shattering,
then shot toward Xue Ziyan, who was suspended in midair!
Whoosh!
Tan Yun, who was still being thrown through the air, was shocked to the extreme.
His body flashed!
In the next instant, he appeared directly in front of Xue Ziyan!
He held her tightly in his arms
and used his own back to take the lightning strike instead!
Boom!
The robe on Tan Yun’s back instantly tore apart.
Flesh and blood splattered everywhere!
A large amount of lightning currents covered both Tan Yun and Xue Ziyan in an instant!
The explosion sent Tan Yun flying dozens of chi away.
A mouthful of blood burst from his mouth
and splashed across the face of the panicked Xue Ziyan!
“Tan Yun!”
Xue Ziyan burst into tears immediately.
“Why are you so foolish!”
“Why risk your life like this!”
“If you die… what will Senior Sister Mu do!”
“Let me go… let me go!”
Tan Yun held her tightly.
He spoke in a hoarse voice.
“Don’t worry…”
“We haven’t reached a dead end yet!”
Just as they were about to crash into the ground,
Tan Yun twisted his body in midair.
Then he staggered and landed on the ground with great difficulty.
Blood was still flowing from his mouth endlessly,
yet he used the Primordial Divine Step once again!
At the same time,
he also activated the forbidden technique — Soul Burning!
The aura of death enveloped Tan Yun’s heart,
but his desire to live
became even more intense!
It was like a violent storm
that completely extinguished the flames of death in his heart!
In that instant,
many memories suddenly appeared in Tan Yun’s mind!
He thought of the gods who had once betrayed him.
He thought of his father, mother, and grandfather back home.
And he also thought of Mu Mengyi, the woman he loved,
who was waiting anxiously for his return!
He…
wanted to live!
No matter what price he had to pay!
Murong Kun looked at Tan Yun’s fleeing figure,
and shock appeared in his eyes.
“What a powerful body!”
He was genuinely shocked.
Originally, he had thought that
his 2 lightning attacks
would cause the first strike to shatter Tan Yun’s right arm into pieces,
and the second strike to tear Tan Yun’s body apart!
But he never expected that
Tan Yun’s right arm and back
would only be torn open with blood splattering!
Suddenly,
a painful howl
like the wail of a vengeful ghost
tore across the sky!
The sound echoed across nearly 100 li!
70 li to the south,
Zhong Wushiyao, who was searching for Liu Rulong,
suddenly trembled.
Her beautiful eyes revealed shock.
“That voice… it’s Tan Yun!”
That scream
also snapped Murong Kun out of his thoughts.
At that moment,
his pupils contracted violently.
When he looked at Tan Yun again,
and clearly saw Tan Yun’s condition—
a chill surged up from the soles of his feet
and rushed straight into his heart!
