Soul Emperor Martial God
Chapter 1374: Beast Hand’s Might
"Golden Light Forbidden Land?" Xiao Yi heard this and frowned.
Behind him stood two Peak Sword Cultivators, as mentioned by the Beiyin Sect Great Elder.
This matter, he knew well.
During his training days ago, he heard about Beiyin Sect Great Elder pursuing him and how Elder Yun Yuan and Hui Deacon slaughtered Beiyin Sect forces.
When he was being chased back then, Xiao Yi had wondered why the Beiyin Sect Great Elder suddenly stopped the pursuit.
He understood only a few days ago. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
As for the Golden Light Forbidden Land.
Xiao Yi glanced at the large Golden Light Pit nearby.
If he guessed correctly, this large pit’s name was indeed the Golden Light Forbidden Land.
At this moment, the Beiyin Sect Great Elder noticed Xiao Yi’s expression and couldn’t help but chuckle mockingly.
"What, you didn’t know this place is the Golden Light Forbidden Land?"
"So that’s it, no wonder."
The Beiyin Sect Great Elder’s laugh grew colder.
"No wonder you dare to come here."
"Well, since death is near, let me enlighten you before you die."
"The Golden Light Forbidden Land is the most dangerous place within the Golden Light Dangerous Land."
"Normally, except for those foolish demon beasts, no sane Martial Artist dares to approach."
"Furthermore, this place has been designated a forbidden land by the Ten Thousand Gold Mansion; no one is allowed to approach without their permission."
"Of course, there are always fools in this world."
"Those self-righteous young Heavenly Talents always think they are strong and fearless."
"They wish to see what’s inside the Golden Light Forbidden Land and hope to gain its benefits."
"Naturally, they end up dying here."
"Haha, you venture into the Gateless Netherworld."
The Beiyin Sect Great Elder said mockingly.
"Benefits?" Xiao Yi ignored most of the Beiyin Sect Great Elder’s words.
"You don’t even know about this?" The Beiyin Sect Great Elder sounded slightly surprised.
"Heh, there are indeed benefits inside the Golden Light Forbidden Land, and they are immense."
"However, no one can obtain them, and neither will you."
As the Beiyin Sect Great Elder spoke, he stared at Xiao Yi, his face growing increasingly mocking.
"I thought you were like those self-righteous young Heavenly Talents, eager to investigate the Golden Light Forbidden Land."
"Now it seems you stumbled upon this place by accident."
"Haha, it seems fate indeed."
"A little thief like you is intolerable by heaven, and today, I will ensure your fall."
As his words fell, the Beiyin Sect Great Elder’s face surged with killing intent to the extreme.
A surge of Primordial Power suddenly gathered in his hand.
Boom... boom... boom...
Streams of Martial Arts River instantly descended, sealing off a range of a hundred miles.
"This time, I won’t give you a chance to escape," the Beiyin Sect Great Elder coldly laughed.
Last time, he thought Xiao Yi was surely dead under the strangulation of Martial Arts Power.
Yet he didn’t expect Xiao Yi, despite being severely injured, to escape.
This time, he would ensure no such accident occurs.
Xiao Yi’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he said coldly, "This time, aren’t you afraid of the Cloud Abyss Sword and Hui Wushi?"
"Afraid?" The Beiyin Sect Great Elder laughed wildly.
Around them, he had sealed the area with nine thousand six hundred streams of Martial Arts River.
With his Martial Arts Great Power, killing a brat was effortless.
"Of course, there is fear." The Beiyin Sect Great Elder laughed mockingly.
"Two Sword Dao Kill Gods; throughout the Central Region, who wouldn’t be wary of them except for a few old fellows?"
"But, so what?"
"I said earlier, this is the Golden Light Forbidden Land within the Golden Light Dangerous Land."
"How many Heavenly Talents have perished here? I kill you and throw you into that unfathomable abyss of the Golden Light Forbidden Land; who would know?"
"Hahahaha." As the Beiyin Sect Great Elder spoke, his face grew increasingly smug.
"Prestigious Xiao Yi, Vice Hall Master of Wind Shattering Hall and Asura Hall double hall, City Lord of Four-direction City, and the victor crushing all Heavenly Talents in the Hundred Schools competition."
"Today, you will fall here."
"Oh no, to the outsiders, you would merely be missing."
"After all, no one would know you lie deceased under the Golden Light Forbidden Land."
"Haha, a Supreme Monster, destined to perish unheeded and buried in a cold abyss; thinking about it fills the old man with delight."
Indeed, it was delightful to him.
After all, Xiao Yi killing his Beiyin Sect Elders equated to challenging the Beiyin Sect.
He, a renowned Martial Arts Great Power of the Beiyin Sect and Central Region, personally set out to hunt him.
Yet, it resulted in failure, forcing him to retreat in frustration.
God knows how stifled he’d felt these days.
This time, Xiao Yi came to the Golden Light Dangerous Land himself, and coincidentally encountered him, giving him a silent opportunity to kill; it’s imaginable how delighted he felt.
The Beiyin Sect Great Elder continued coldly.
He wasn’t in a rush to kill Xiao Yi; confident that Xiao Yi couldn’t escape this time.
He wanted more to see Xiao Yi’s scream before death, or perhaps... plead.
Yet, Xiao Yi’s next words made him suddenly furious to the extreme.
"In other words," Xiao Yi coldly laughed, a sinister glimmer on his face.
"If I kill you now and bury your body in this unfathomable Golden Light Forbidden Land, no one would know either?"
"Kill me? Bury?" The Beiyin Sect Great Elder was first stunned, then enraged.
"Utterly ridiculous." The Beiyin Sect Great Elder laughed in anger.
"I initially intended to let you live a bit longer, but now, I’ve changed my mind."
Boom... The Beiyin Sect Great Elder waved.
Streams of Heaven and Earth Power with immense might pressed towards Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi furrowed his brow and swiftly flashed out of the Great Formation.
This Ice Profound Sealing Formation was specifically set up by him for sealing furnaces, not to waste the Spirit Stone power inside due to the Beiyin Sect Great Elder’s attack.
"Trying to escape again?" The Beiyin Sect Great Elder saw Xiao Yi flash and raised both hands, the nine thousand six hundred streams of Martial Arts River rampaging instantly.
Boom...
Streams of Martial Arts River crushed forth.
The space collapsed as they passed.
The river almost instantly reached Xiao Yi.
At this moment, Xiao Yi slowly reached out his hand and squeezed hard.
Boom...
A booming explosion.
The robust Martial Arts River was like a fragile river, instantly crushed into splattering river water.
The scattered streams of Martial Arts River turned into dots of Martial Arts Power, dissipating into the world.
"Hmm? Crushing my Martial Arts River with a wave of a hand?" The Beiyin Sect Great Elder was shocked.
In his memory, months ago, Xiao Yi needed to exert himself fully with a sword, using Secret Technique and that bizarre Sword Skills to barely break one of his rivers.
And now, months later, to crush it by hand?
Upon closer inspection, Xiao Yi’s arm had changed unknowingly.
That was not a human hand but the Beast Hand of some unknown demon beast.
The dark Scale Armor proclaimed its incomparable hardness.
The claw emitting cold light proved its astonishing sharpness.
The red glimmer interwoven with the Scale Armor seemed to contain explosive power.
Indeed, the Beast Hands from the Eight Dragons Burning Fire Furnace were now covering Xiao Yi’s hand.
