Chapter 253: What Eighth on the King Ranking? The Holy City’s rankings are truly misleading!

"Li Xuanfeng!"

The Imperial Realm expert from the Sky Puppet Sect had a face as dark as a thunderstorm.

He had watched helplessly as the Yin Puppet King was killed.

Li Xuanfeng's strength had completely exceeded expectations, and he had shown no mercy when taking action. He hadn't even considered that the Yin Puppet King was backed by the Sky Puppet Sect; he had just killed him so casually!

Although the Yin Puppet King had the intention to kill Li Xuanfeng and seize his treasures, he hadn't made the first move!

It was one thing for Li Xuanfeng to strike first, but to dare and kill him directly—was he not considering the consequences at all?

If not for the Spirit Emperor's intervention, the Imperial Realm expert from the Sky Puppet Sect would have already rushed into the Void Realm and slapped Li Xuanfeng to death!

The Cultivators throughout the city were incomparably shocked, yet they dared not make a single sound.

Whoosh!

In the Void Realm, Chaos mist and golden light intertwined around Li Xuanfeng, pushing his speed to an astonishing level as he charged toward the nearest target, the Spear Overlord.

The moment the Yin Puppet King fell, the Spear Overlord and the Hundred Fire King began to flee for their lives.

Clang!

Although the Hundred Fire King fled the fastest, Li Xuanfeng didn't give him the chance. The Golden Emperor Bell appeared out of thin air and descended directly to envelop him.

The Hundred Fire King, who had thought he could escape, felt as if an incomparably vast world was pressing down on him from above. Terrifying power imprisoned him before he was pulled into the inner space of the Golden Emperor Bell.

With Li Xuanfeng's current strength driving an Imperial Dao weapon, how could the Hundred Fire King possibly resist?

As the Golden Emperor Bell suppressed the Hundred Fire King, Li Xuanfeng caught up with the Spear Overlord.

Swish!

A sword beam slashed out. The Spear Overlord could only grit his teeth and unleash his strongest move; a sky full of dense spear shadows covered the area.

It felt as if millions of spears were attacking at the same time.

Boom!

However, after a roar, the spear shadows dissipated. The sword beam, its momentum undiminished, seemed to have a homing function as it precisely struck the Spear Overlord, cleaving his Physical Body and Soul in two!

"Peerless King, will you not stop yet?!"

"The situation between you and my Xu family has not reached the point of life and death!"

"Stop now, and there is still room for reconciliation!"

The Spear Overlord could no longer maintain his mysterious air of composure. His face was filled with terror, and his body, cleaved in two, could not recover.

Hum!

A vast Domain descended, channeling all its power into himself, yet he still could not recover.

"Weren't you going to settle scores with me?"

"Since you lack the ability, why did you bother coming forward?"

"Next time, send the Withered Emperor!"

Li Xuanfeng slashed out twice more, ignoring whatever else the Spear Overlord said.

Chaos surged, engulfing the Spear Overlord, and in an instant, he was annihilated into dust.

The Spear Overlord, third on the King Ranking, had fallen!

Chaos mist permeated the area, quickly devouring and refining his Domain.

Whoosh!

With a flicker of movement, Li Xuanfeng arrived before the Golden Emperor Bell.

The Golden Emperor Bell rapidly shrank and was put away by him, revealing the figure of the Hundred Fire King.

"Peerless King!"

The Hundred Fire King could not hide his horror.

He discovered that the Spear Overlord's aura had completely vanished, leaving only a vast Domain being rapidly consumed by the Chaos mist.

Li Xuanfeng didn't say a word and struck at him with a sword beam.

Swish, swish, swish!

A glazed fire basin appeared in front of the Hundred Fire King. Hundreds of terrifying flames howled out from the basin, instantly coalescing into a seven-colored fire lotus.

Boom!

The sword strike collided with the fire lotus. Terrifying energy raged, and brilliant light engulfed both their figures.

Bang!

The glazed fire basin was suddenly knocked away, falling into the depths of the Void Realm.

"Is it fun?"

Li Xuanfeng's voice came from within the brilliant energy light. Then, a loud boom was heard, like a Physical Body being brutally exploded by a fist.

"Peerless King!!!"

The Hundred Fire King's furious roar swept through the Void Realm.

"I am asking you if it is fun!"

Boom!

"Speak!"

Boom!

"Is it fun?"

Boom!

"Ah!!!"

"Peerless King!!!"

"The Black Fire Sect will not let you go!!!"

The Hundred Fire King roared hysterically, like the impotent rage of one facing a desperate situation.

As the brilliant energy light gradually faded, a Hundred Fire Domain descended, revealing the Hundred Fire King being beaten to a pulp by Li Xuanfeng time and again, only to re-condense each time.

Humiliated like this, he originally didn't want to re-condense, but Chaos mist surged from all directions, grinding away his flesh and blood, forcing him to re-condense!

In the end, the Hundred Fire King gave up, letting the Chaos mist erode him rather than be humiliated by Li Xuanfeng any longer.

He attempted to self-destruct his Domain, but Li Xuanfeng severed the connection with a single sword strike.

"It is clearly so boring, yet you keep talking about fun every day."

Li Xuanfeng couldn't be bothered to continue. He instantly slashed out thousands of sword beams, hacking the Hundred Fire King's Physical Body and Soul into dust.

"The Black Fire Sect will not let you go!"

The Hundred Fire King left behind one last unwilling voice, and then his aura was completely extinguished.

The Hundred Fire King, second on the King Ranking, had fallen!

Puff!

The Heaven-Opening King was terrified to the extreme. Having seen the Yin Puppet King, Spear Overlord, and Hundred Fire King killed by Li Xuanfeng in a posture of absolute crushing dominance one after another, he was already paralyzed by fear.

He was already at a disadvantage, and because he was distracted by his terror, the Spirit Puppet seized the opportunity and pierced his forehead with a spear.

Although this strike did not directly take his life, it left him in an irrecoverable situation.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

Instantly, thousands of spear shadows whistled out, piercing countless holes in the Heaven-Opening King's body. The Chaos mist left behind by Li Xuanfeng spread along the spear shadows, constantly eroding his wounds and preventing the Heaven-Opening King from recovering.

Whoosh!

Li Xuanfeng moved and descended to this spot.

"Peerless King!"

The Heaven-Opening King, whose body was already riddled with holes, had a terrified expression.

He recalled the fear he felt when he once saw the Blood Devil King take action—no, it should be said, a fear even deeper than that!

The strength Li Xuanfeng had displayed was definitely above the Blood Devil King! He was the true number one on the King Ranking!

What Eighth on the King Ranking? The Holy City's rankings are truly misleading!

"Don't kill me!"

Faced with life and death, the Heaven-Opening King felt that nothing else mattered. Although he felt it was pathetic and humiliating to have actively challenged Li Xuanfeng before, and now to be begging for mercy, he couldn't care about that anymore in order to survive.

The Yin Puppet King, Spear Overlord, and Hundred Fire King, who were stronger than him, were all vulnerable before Li Xuanfeng; he absolutely could not resist. When a person dies, everything becomes empty; only by surviving can one talk about anything else.

"Oh?"

"Wasn't it 'life and death are determined by fate'?"

Li Xuanfeng raised an eyebrow. The Heaven-Opening King immediately fell silent.

"Spirit Puppet, finish him quickly!"

Li Xuanfeng said indifferently.

"Yes, Master!"

More Chaos mist surged from the Spirit Puppet.

Li Xuanfeng had long since injected a lot into her in advance; at this moment, it all erupted. The spear danced, piercing through the Heaven-Opening King's Sea of Consciousness.

"Peerless King!!!"

The Heaven-Opening King felt anger and despair, but more than that, regret.

Li Xuanfeng's strength was truly beyond imagination. He had thought him arrogant and presumptuous, but who knew he actually possessed the strength to look down upon the entire King Ranking!

Originally, the existence of the Blood Devil King was already somewhat outrageous, but who could have expected an even more outrageous Li Xuanfeng to appear?

To think he couldn't even defeat his weapon was simply a great humiliation!

The Heaven-Opening King, ninth on the King Ranking, had fallen!

Just as Li Xuanfeng had said, the Heaven-Opening King didn't even have the qualifications to make him take action. His two King-Dao weapons were enough to finish him off.

The only downside was that the Spirit Puppet had shattered the Heaven-Opening King's Domain with one spear strike.

Endless Chaos mist surged out from Li Xuanfeng's body, devouring all the Domains completely.

Except for using the Golden Emperor Bell to prevent the Hundred Fire King from escaping, Li Xuanfeng hadn't even used his Domain from start to finish. Killing these people didn't require him to use much strength at all.

"This battle, perhaps, is not over yet."

As the Chaos mist was still refining the Domains, Li Xuanfeng's gaze seemed to pierce through the spatial barrier to see the Grand Competition arena.
