By the time they realized what was happening,
Jiang Fan had already leaped in front of the Supreme Elder clutching his head and howling in pain.
“Not good!”
“Supreme Elder Kong, watch out!!”
Supreme Elder Kong had remained the furthest away, believing himself to be the safest.
He was largely unguarded.
When he abruptly heard the urgent cries of those around him, he finally raised his head to look forward.
But what he saw was nothing but a flash of purple brilliance obscuring his vision.
The next moment, a chill spread across his neck.
His eyes widened, and his head flew into the air.
“No! Elder Kong!”
One of the Supreme Elders let out a heart-wrenching scream.
If a disciple died, they hardly cared; new ones could always be recruited.
If an elder died, they felt some pain, but it was bearable.
But for a Supreme Elder, someone who had shared decades of brotherhood and camaraderie, to die—this was unbearable.
“I’ll kill you!!”
One Supreme Elder, his eyes red with fury, donned a pair of gloves and unleashed a strike that seemed to tear heaven and earth asunder!
Already in the Ninth Layer of Core Formation, his blow, fueled by his rage, was unimaginably powerful.
Jiang Fan didn’t hesitate.
He turned and made a series of intricate gestures with his hands.
Before his chest, a Seal Technique rapidly took shape.
It seemed to open a mysterious gate.
Golden light began to flow from Jiang Fan’s body, condensing behind him into an incredibly lifelike Eight-Armed Divine Statue.
“Divine Lord Vast Heavens!”
Jiang Fan thrust both palms forward with tremendous force.
The Divine Image behind him mirrored the attack.
BOOM—
The Supreme Elder, startled by the sudden appearance of the Divine Statue, hesitated momentarily.
In ordinary circumstances, he would have retreated cautiously.
But now, blinded by rage, he noticed the danger yet chose to confront it head-on.
He managed to block the first two hands of the Divine Image with his palms.
Realizing the raw power behind them was equivalent only to the Eighth Layer of Core Formation, he sneered. “Is this your trump card?”
“Then you’re dead for sure!”
“Begone!”
He unleashed the overwhelming strength of his physique, aiming to obliterate the Divine Image.
But just then—
Two more arms of the Divine Image moved!
They struck his head suddenly.
Completely unprepared, the Supreme Elder’s eyes opened wide as his skull was instantly shattered!
“Elder Duan!”
“Supreme Elder Duan!!”
The crowd could hardly believe their eyes!
In the blink of an eye,
both Elder Kong and Elder Duan, two Supreme Elders, had perished!
“This one is highly dangerous!”
“All Supreme Elders, attack together!”
A Supreme Elder second only to He Jiuzhang roared with killing intent, his long white hair thrashing like a demon’s.
With him leading,
six remaining Supreme Elders, two elders, and the Sect Master,
all charged at Jiang Fan with roars of fury.
