The Supreme Being Against Heaven
Chapter Summary
His aura surged upward continuously, almost breaking through to Level 1 of the Nascent Soul Realm! “Don’t be afraid!” “I will take you out of here alive!” “And I will bring you back to reunite with the 2 Mengyi sisters again!” “Primordial Divine Step!” Suddenly, Tan Yun’s speed increased to a shocking level. “Senior Brother Murong!” “Are you chasing Tan Yun right now?!” “If you hear me—answer me!” After quite some time, a faint voice pierced through the empty air and entered Liu Rulong’s ears.
At this moment, Tan Yun, who was fleeing for his life, had eyes as red as blood. His face was twisted with pain, and his long hair whipped wildly in the wind.
Suddenly—
a 2-chi-high flame burst into life above his head!
As the Soul Flame began to burn, fresh blood poured out from Tan Yun’s 7 orifices, flowing down his face, which was twisted in unbearable agony!
At that moment,
he looked like a demonic fiend that had crawled out of hell.
His aura surged upward continuously,
almost breaking through to Level 1 of the Nascent Soul Realm!
Tan Yun knew very well
how enormous the gap was between the Great Perfection of the Spirit Embryo Realm and Level 1 of the Nascent Soul Realm.
Even though his power had increased tremendously at this moment,
he still might not be Murong Kun’s opponent!
Moreover—
he was still carrying Xue Ziyan with him!
Therefore,
he absolutely could not fight Murong Kun to the death right now!
If he could not kill Murong Kun within 3 ke,
once the Soul Flame extinguished,
his soul would suffer severe damage.
And at that time,
he would completely fall into Murong Kun’s hands!
Run!
Only by escaping alive today
would he have a chance to take revenge in the future!
“Tan Yun… you… what happened to you?”
Xue Ziyan looked up at Tan Yun’s head, which was covered in a faint flame.
Tears streamed endlessly down her cheeks.
“Don’t worry… I’m fine!”
Tan Yun gritted his teeth, enduring pain beyond what a human could bear,
and spoke word by word.
“Don’t be afraid!”
“I will take you out of here alive!”
“And I will bring you back to reunite with the 2 Mengyi sisters again!”
“Primordial Divine Step!”
Suddenly,
Tan Yun’s speed increased to a shocking level.
He fled with all his strength through the lush mountains!
He had no fixed direction.
The only belief in his heart was—
escape and survive!
His figure flashed through the forests and mountains.
Every step he took
no longer covered 30 chi
but increased to 40 chi!
Thus,
the distance between him and Murong Kun, who was chasing on a flying sword,
gradually began to widen!
Tan Yun’s terrifying appearance just now
had truly shocked Murong Kun.
He had thought the other party was about to use a devastating technique beyond his level.
But when he saw Tan Yun fleeing frantically,
all the worries in his heart instantly vanished.
“You trash!”
Murong Kun stood on his flying sword,
his cold laughter echoing throughout the valley.
“If I’m not mistaken…”
“you must be using the forbidden technique — Soul Burning, right?”
“So what?”
“Do you think you can escape?”
“How foolish!”
Suddenly,
Murong Kun roared loudly.
“Gather the Wind!”
In an instant,
a 10-chi-tall whirlwind erupted around his body.
His flying speed on the sword increased by 30%!
Then he rushed forward,
chasing Tan Yun who was 300 chi ahead!
After running through valleys and forests for quite some time,
Tan Yun glanced back.
He saw that Murong Kun was still about 300 chi behind him,
standing on his flying sword with a mocking smile.
Tan Yun’s expression became even more serious!
If this continued,
within 2 ke
his soul would be burned to ashes,
and he would die in this valley!
A sense of helplessness surged in Tan Yun’s heart,
but he still gritted his teeth and endured,
deciding to move forward step by step!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Tan Yun carried the crying Xue Ziyan
and rushed into the deep forest,
fleeing toward the edge of the valley…
“You trash! Stop struggling uselessly!”
Murong Kun, surrounded by the whirlwind,
stood firmly on his flying sword.
His voice was filled with confidence, as if everything was under his control.
“No matter how much stronger your soul is compared to ordinary cultivators at the Great Perfection of the Spirit Embryo Realm…”
“you still cannot endure Soul Burning for long!”
“You trash!”
“I really want to see… how long you can hold on!”
Tan Yun’s expression was firm like steel.
Without even turning back,
he roared in response.
“Shut your dog mouth!”
“As long as I don’t die today—”
“in the future, I will repay you 10 times over!”
“Until you have nowhere to escape, whether in heaven or hell!”
“Heh… you’re about to die and still dare to talk big, not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth!”
Murong Kun’s eyes revealed a vicious glint.
At the same time,
in the Withered Wood Valley,
Liu Rulong descended rapidly from the sky while standing on his flying sword, landing in front of the 50 disciples who were still standing motionless with blank expressions.
He roared loudly.
“1 ke ago, I heard Tan Yun’s scream!”
“Tell me right now—where is he!”
Thinking of his father, mother, and younger sister, who had died miserably,
in this world,
no one wanted to kill Tan Yun more than him!
His thunderous roar caused the 50 disciples to regain their senses.
Because Tan Yun had already left the Withered Wood Valley,
the influence of his hypnotic power gradually faded.
When they realized that Xue Ziyan was no longer in the withered forest,
they immediately told Liu Rulong
that Tan Yun had rescued her and escaped!
“Damn it! Damn it!”
Liu Rulong roared like a madman.
“Tell me!”
“When he escaped, which direction did he go!”
One of the disciples answered in a trembling voice.
“Reporting to Senior Brother Liu… after we saw Tan Yun’s eyes, we all lost consciousness…”
“We don’t know which direction he took Xue Ziyan…”
Everyone spoke with fear in their voices.
“You useless trash!”
Liu Rulong cursed furiously.
He grabbed one disciple by the collar
and shouted,
“Where is Senior Brother Murong then?”
“Did he go after Tan Yun or not?!”
“Reporting to Senior Brother Liu… I… I don’t—”
Before he could finish speaking—
Slap!
The disciple was instantly sent flying by Liu Rulong’s strike!
“Useless waste! You don’t know anything!”
Liu Rulong was almost driven mad with rage.
Spiritual power surged from his body.
Then he shouted loudly,
his voice waves spreading far into the distance.
“Senior Brother Murong!”
“Are you chasing Tan Yun right now?!”
“If you hear me—answer me!”
After quite some time,
a faint voice pierced through the empty air
and entered Liu Rulong’s ears.
“Liu Rulong…”
“Tan Yun is escaping from the valley…”
Upon hearing this,
Liu Rulong was overjoyed!
He immediately stepped onto his flying sword, soaring into the sky,
then gathered all his spiritual power
to control the sword and rush toward the outer edge of the valley!
From Murong Kun’s faint voice just now,
he estimated that
Murong Kun was at least 80 li away.
Not long afterward,
Tan Yun, who was carrying Xue Ziyan in his arms,
began to feel slightly dizzy.
He knew very well that
before long,
his soul would be burned into ashes,
and he would certainly die!
The only choice now
was to risk his life
and use the remaining time while the Soul Flame was still burning
to fight Murong Kun to the death!
Thus,
Tan Yun slowly reduced his speed,
pretending that his strength was exhausted,
in order to lure Murong Kun closer.
At the same time,
he quickly formed a counterattack plan in his mind!
A cold laugh sounded from behind.
“Heh heh… what’s wrong?”
“Burning your soul for too long and starting to feel dizzy?”
“You can’t run anymore, can you?”
Murong Kun’s expression was filled with excitement.
He continued chasing Tan Yun without slowing down even a little!
The distance between them rapidly shrank.
250 zhang…
200 zhang…
150 zhang…
When Murong Kun appeared above Tan Yun’s head at a distance of 100 chi,
his killing voice echoed.
“You trash… turn into ashes!”
“Don’t worry!”
“After you die…”
“I, Murong Kun, will go and properly enjoy Mu Mengyi!”
“I will take her as my concubine for life!”
“I will play with her day and night!”
The moment he finished speaking,
Murong Kun roared loudly!
In an instant,
countless lightning bolts, each as thick as an arm,
burst out from his body,
like lightning serpents!
They rushed downward toward Tan Yun with ferocious force!
In just a blink,
dozens of lightning serpents
completely swallowed Tan Yun’s figure!
The forest within a radius of 150 zhang around Tan Yun
was instantly flattened to the ground!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Rumble!
Trees collapsed.
Rocks shattered.
Dust and smoke shot up into the sky,
like a giant mushroom-shaped explosion!
The scene looked like the end of the world!
The violent tremor caused the demonic beasts in the surrounding mountains and forests
to panic and flee in all directions!
