Chapter 501: Chapter 499: Tianfang, You’ve Fallen Into My Hands Again

Deng Tianfang?

Xu Yang was even more shocked than the Martial Artist of the War King Clan.

Why would Deng Tianfang appear here?

Could it be that he knows I’m here?

But that’s almost impossible!

Xu Yang furrowed his brows, carefully recalling his journey so far. He was certain his identity could not possibly have been exposed.

Unless it really is a coincidence!

Xu Yang narrowed his eyes, coldly staring at Deng Tianfang.

This guy, after so little time, has actually reached the True Monarch Middle Realm too!

Clearly, as he was rapidly advancing, others weren’t idle either—they were all growing stronger as fast as possible.

"Deng Tianfang, I am a Martial Artist of the War King Clan. Your junior disciple wants to kill me. Shouldn’t he be the one to die?"

The Martial Artist of the War King Clan glanced at the unmoving Xu Yang, steadied himself a little, and glared at Deng Tianfang, gnashing his teeth as he spoke.

"War King Clan?"

Deng Tianfang was taken aback. He didn’t know how the two had crossed paths before, but a surge of fury was born within him.

"So it’s just scum from the War King Clan!"

"My junior wants to kill you, then why don’t you just stand there and let him do it."

Hearing this, the Martial Artist of the War King Clan was so angry that his whole body trembled.

Even Xu Yang couldn’t help but sneer, "That’s truly shameless."

"And who are you? From the War King Clan?" Deng Tianfang looked at Xu Yang, his gaze sharpening; the other’s True Monarch Middle Realm cultivation made him wary for a moment, but he soon let it go.

He came here equipped with measures from Senior Brother Xiao Ming.

"I’m not of the War King Clan, just couldn’t stand to watch." Xu Yang replied indifferently.

"Not of the War King Clan, yet you dare meddle in the disputes between the seven top sects? Don’t know your own limits."

Deng Tianfang grinned sinisterly, killing intent surging.

Swish!

He shot forward like lightning.

The Martial Artist of the War King Clan’s face changed dramatically: "Deng Tianfang, do you really want to go to war with the War King Clan?"

Right now, this was all he could use for threats.

"In front of my Five Elements Celestial Realm, your War King Clan is nothing! Not even a single Heaven-rank. Hmph!"

"Die!"

Boom!

Deng Tianfang didn’t care about him at all, arriving instantly, forming a fist imprint like ten thousand horses crashing, pulverizing the void.

The Martial Artist of the War King Clan’s eyes almost popped out in rage.

At this moment, Xu Yang moved.

He stepped forward, body sinking, instantly shifting in front of the foe, coldly meeting Deng Tianfang’s onslaught.

"Since you want to die, I’ll oblige you first!"

Seeing Xu Yang blocking his way, Deng Tianfang sneered viciously, his fist blazing, power rising to its maximum, holding nothing back.

This punch was like a divine spear piercing the heavens!

Xu Yang’s face was cold, his five fingers suddenly clenching, erupting with the force of the Celestial Refining Divine Tripod from within; a tyrannical power surged out, and his palm flashed up like lightning.

Bam!

His large palm precisely encompassed Deng Tianfang’s fist, violent shockwaves bursting outward from his hand.

"Hmm?"

Deng Tianfang’s figure shuddered.

"Devour!"

Without waiting for Deng Tianfang to react, Xu Yang spat thunder from his mouth.

The Heaven-Devouring Spirit-Eating Skill activated, his five fingers gripping tightly, turning into a terrifying vortex, fiercely pulling at the opponent’s fist.

The Heaven-Devouring Spirit-Eating Skill isn’t just for cultivation—it has miraculous uses in combat too!

"Devouring?"

Deng Tianfang’s face changed drastically. He felt his fist being held fast, even the power in his body was uncontrollably surging out—he shuddered in horror, his bones exploding with sound, spirit marks surfacing, struggling madly.

Xu Yang’s palm trembled, devouring force pushing and pulling!

Bam!

Tianfeng let out a muffled, pained grunt, retreating in misery.

"Where is he?"

He stared in shock, only to discover Xu Yang had vanished from sight.

But as a top ten on the Celestial Pride List, he was decisive; unable to find Xu Yang, he turned abruptly, controlling his spirit marks, summoning a vast ocean.

Whoosh!

In the ocean, crimson flames grew wild.

It was water and fire fused, soft and hard merging!

Spirit marks stretched out, controlled like a heavenly general, pressure flooding heaven and earth.

Rumble!

Angry waves and crimson flames splashed madly, as if a godlike mountain was shattering and crushing all, savage and brutal.

The spirit marks trembled, instantly retracting into his body.

Deng Tianfang spat blood, once again falling.

In front of Xu Yang, he was almost powerless to resist.

Behind them, the Martial Artist of the War King Clan was dumbfounded, utterly unprepared for Xu Yang’s incredible strength, suppressing Deng Tianfang—top ten on the Celestial Pride List—without effort.

"This is the Celestial Pride List’s Five Elements Celestial Realm talent?"

"Top ten on the Celestial Pride List?"

"Just another piece of trash!"

Xu Yang mocked mercilessly.

Deng Tianfang’s face flushed crimson, furious beyond measure: "You dog, how dare you defy the Five Elements Celestial Realm! I’ll make you wish you were dead!"

"A loyal dog indeed!"

Dog?

The familiar word made Deng Tianfang recall painful memories; his face twisted, he slipped fully into madness.

Swish!

He opened his mouth and spat out a rainbow-hued spirit light.

The spirit light was like a bolt of lightning; as soon as it appeared, it released an overwhelming Five Elements might, distorting the void, manifesting breathtakingly beautiful yet destructive elemental visions of heaven and earth.

Within that dazzling light, a thumb-thick little snake seemed to writhe in water, churning up violent ripples, shooting straight towards Xu Yang at a terrifying, unimaginable speed.

Deng Tianfang’s face was fierce; although the little snake was meant for other purposes, he couldn’t care less now.

"That’s..."

Xu Yang’s expression changed slightly; from that snake, he detected a hint of familiar aura.

Xiao Ming!

This little snake wasn’t true life, but conjured by Five Elements intent.

"Lock!"

In a flash, Xu Yang quietly released the power of his spirit marks.

When the snake was within two feet of him, it shuddered.

Xu Yang didn’t fully unleash the spirit marks, so the lock only lasted a moment, immediately shattered by the snake.

But for him, a single moment was enough.

He suddenly clenched his palm; the Dantian Divine Tripod boomed, opening a gigantic abyssal maw. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Bam!

Xu Yang snatched the little snake; the force made his body tremble, a trace of pain coming from his palm.

But then, invisible chains sprang from his hand.

"Devour!"

The Heaven-Devouring Spirit-Eating Skill activated.

An invisible vortex enveloped the little snake.

In an instant, the snake vanished into thin air, swept into his body, swallowed directly by the Celestial Refining Divine Tripod.

"Even a single technique bestowed by Xiao Ming is this powerful?" Xu Yang was deeply shocked.

The strength of that little snake alone was comparable to a High-tier True Monarch!

If Xiao Ming showed up in person, his true power would be unfathomable!

As Xu Yang reeled in shock, Deng Tianfang was even more rattled.

"Impossible!"

"That was forged by Senior Brother Xiao Ming with Five Elements spirit intent—comparable to High-tier True Monarch!"

Deng Tianfang’s body went cold, consumed with terror.

When he met Xu Yang’s sharp, sweeping gaze, his face turned white; without a shred of hesitation, he spun and fled.

"You damned mutt, the Five Elements Celestial Realm won’t let you off!"

Fleeing, he still spat out a venomous threat.

Xu Yang’s gaze was icy; this bastard was truly disgusting!

His mouth was filthy.

Swish!

He dashed after him.

The Martial Artist of the War King Clan saw this, hesitated a moment, then turned and rushed toward the exit of the Ruins.

No choice—he couldn’t get involved. If he stayed, he’d only be a burden in case of trouble.

But he was still extremely curious: Who exactly was Xu Yang?

He actually dared risk offending the Five Elements Celestial Realm to help the War King Clan.

On the other side, in less than a few seconds, Xu Yang closed in on Deng Tianfang.

Boom!

He casually knocked Deng Tianfang to the ground.

Xu Yang walked over slowly, looking down from above at Deng Tianfang.

Deng Tianfang was filled with terror.

"I’m top ten on the Celestial Pride List! My standing within the Five Elements Celestial Realm is unmatched. If you kill me, the sect will know immediately. You can forget about escaping!"

"Is that so?"

Xu Yang smiled playfully, then suddenly said, "Tianfang, you’ve landed in my hands again. Tell me, how should I torment you this time?"
