Chapter 460: He is indeed the monster that Master mentioned with such amazement!
The black-robed man's aura completely vanished. The Heaven-Sealing Barrier was destroyed, and all traces of him were gone.
All the Cultivators stared blankly at the scene, as if an invisible hand had gripped their throats. They opened and closed their mouths, but not a single word came out.
The mighty Heavenly Might was awe-inspiring, bringing an unspeakable terror and trepidation. However, in the face of Li Xuanfeng's shocking feat of killing a Middle Stage Saint King with a single sword, everyone seemed to forget the fear brought by the Heavenly Might, their minds left utterly blank.
"Dead… he's dead?"
The Mighty Half-Saint's expression was somewhat stiff.
A Middle Stage Saint King, who should have been absolutely superior, was actually instantly killed by Li Xuanfeng with one sword?
How vast must the power gap be to achieve such a feat?
The Mighty Half-Saint couldn't imagine it; Li Xuanfeng's power had already exceeded his comprehension.
Just moments ago, he had sighed inwardly, believing the outcome was set and that Li Xuanfeng would be powerless to reverse the situation this time.
He hadn't expected that he was ultimately limited by his own horizons, unable to grasp the exaggerated extent of a Prodigy like Li Xuanfeng.
Emperor Miao was also too stunned to speak.
She gazed distantly into the abyss, Li Xuanfeng's elegant figure holding a sword reflected in her sapphire-like pupils. Her heart pounded, and in a trance, the scene of Li Xuanfeng entering the abyss three years ago resurfaced before her eyes.
"Don't you know that if this Venerable One wants you as a maidservant, you wouldn't even have the right to set conditions?"
"Remember what you said. If this Venerable One becomes interested in the future, perhaps I won't mind fulfilling your wish."
Those words from that year still echoed in her ears. Li Xuanfeng had killed the black-robed Saint and then entered the abyss, departing with an air of nonchalance.
Three years later, this man returned from the abyss, elegantly wielding his sword to instantly destroy a Middle Stage Saint King with a single move.
He was still as powerful, still as invincible, still as unparalleled in demeanor, captivating and intoxicating.
Initially, when Emperor Miao heard rumors of the peerless Emperor Li Xuanfeng, she scoffed, dismissing it as a complete joke.
Even when she personally witnessed him instantly kill Sword Emperor, the number one Emperor Realm Cultivator from the Myriad Sword Holy Land in the Central Continent, and his Dao Protector, she remained highly skeptical.
It wasn't until she personally gathered intelligence and investigated afterward that she truly understood the terrifying nature of this peerless Prodigy.
There was no other man in this world who could compare to him.
Three years ago, Emperor Miao, in order to make Li Xuanfeng spare her great-grandfather, the Mighty Half-Saint, was willing to serve him as a maidservant.
It seemed like she was sacrificing her chastity and freedom in exchange for her great-grandfather's life, but it was also her true inner desire.
The more of a Prodigy and the more powerful Li Xuanfeng became, the more Emperor Miao felt unworthy, feeling inferior and humble to the dust.
Perhaps becoming a maidservant was her only chance to get close to Li Xuanfeng.
But such an outstanding person had countless women wanting to cling to him; would she truly have this opportunity?
With that captivating figure still reflected in her blue eyes, Emperor Miao could only silently hope that one day Li Xuanfeng would truly become interested in her.
Emperor Ice Feather also experienced intense emotional fluctuations, similar to Emperor Miao.
The mountain breeze ruffled her soft hair. After witnessing that brilliant sword light annihilate the black-robed Middle Stage Saint King, Emperor Ice Feather's expression shifted from initial shock to a daze.
She seemed to understand why Emperor Spirit could approach Li Xuanfeng and successfully enter his embrace, becoming his woman.
It was because Emperor Spirit's choice had been firm and unwavering from beginning to end, while her own belief could not remain consistent.
Despite having personally witnessed Li Xuanfeng's Heaven-Defying displays multiple times, and knowing he was an unreasonably prodigious and unique peerless Prodigy throughout history,
she had still harbored doubts and wavered just now regarding whether Li Xuanfeng could turn the tide and break through the desperate situation.
Facts proved that her judgment of people was indeed inferior to that of her friend.
"Master she…"
Emperor Ice Feather's gaze shifted, and she suddenly froze.
She saw her Master, who was always aloof and indifferent, holding the little girl and looking at Li Xuanfeng with eyes full of admiration. The coldness in her eyes had long melted into tenderness, indistinguishable from the gaze one would give a beloved person.
If Emperor Ice Feather had harbored a sliver of hope and illusion before, thinking that her aloof Master could never develop feelings for any male Cultivator, then with such obvious adoration in her eyes now, she truly couldn't deceive herself any longer.
Buzz!!!
A powerful Saint power fluctuation emanated once more, drawing the attention of the stunned crowd again and interrupting Emperor Ice Feather's thoughts.
Though it seemed slow in narration, in reality, it was but an instant. Immediately after destroying the black-robed man, Li Xuanfeng's second attack had already condensed.
Saint Blood River, who had been full of confidence and fearlessness earlier, was now terrified and speechless.
What kind of existence was a Middle Stage Saint King?
He was an existence that even Saint Blood River, a Saint who could suppress all Cultivators in Saint City with his Saint power alone, had to treat with utmost respect!
He was an existence considered a super-powerful Cultivator anywhere in the Canglan World!
Yet, such an existence was instantly killed by Li Xuanfeng with a single sword!
His body and Soul were annihilated, leaving no corpse!
The terrifying vitality of a Saint King, who could Rebirth from just a drop of blood or a wisp of residual Soul, became a joke.
Even against other Late Stage Saint Kings, the black-robed man wouldn't have been defeated so easily. But in front of Li Xuanfeng, he couldn't even withstand a single move. Both lightning and Innate spiritual fire have extremely strong suppressive effects on vitality, let alone the power of Chaos, which can refine everything in reverse.
Saint Blood River had thought Li Xuanfeng was very Heaven-Defying, but he hadn't imagined he would be this Heaven-Defying.
It turned out that without relying on his backing forces or his Master, Li Xuanfeng could still be so powerful.
The instinct for survival caused Saint Blood River's body to explode into billions of blood mist. Although he knew it was impossible, he still wanted to live.
However, the power of Chaos formed a large net, covering the heavens and earth. Before the blood mist could even touch the Chaos net, it began to sizzle and smoke like ice encountering a red-hot iron.
"Ah!"
The pain of his Soul and flesh swept through him, causing Saint Blood River to let out a scream.
The remaining blood mist was forced to converge, reforming into a human shape.
"I was wrong!"
Saint Blood River knelt before Li Xuanfeng, disregarding his image.
However, the brilliant sword light flared up again, then engulfed him. Li Xuanfeng gave him no chance whatsoever.
Saint Blood River wasn't truly admitting his mistake; he was merely recognizing reality and knowing he was about to die.
After the sword light passed, the world returned to silence.
Saint Blood River, a Middle Stage Saint, had fallen!
A Middle Stage Saint King and a Middle Stage Saint were no different in front of Li Xuanfeng.
The Nine Heavens Thunder Tribulation Sword disappeared, and all of Li Xuanfeng's vast Saint power fluctuations were fully contained, instantly making him appear like a Mortal without any cultivation.
The mighty Heavenly Might lingered for a long time, eventually dissipating.
Although the Heaven-Sealing Barrier was already broken, no Cultivator dared to move, nor was any Cultivator affected. Under the absolute disparity in power, Li Xuanfeng's killing of the two would not generate any aftershocks.
If aftershocks were generated, it would instead be an indication of a small power gap and imprecise control over power.
In the silent world, no one dared to speak until Li Xuanfeng spoke first.
Clap clap clap!
Crisp applause broke the silence.
"As expected of the Prodigy whom even Master speaks of with continuous astonishment; indeed, meeting him is better than just hearing about him!"
The woman's voice sounded very clean, like a clear spring flowing through the mountains.
Under the gaze of countless eyes, the figure of the woman in green slowly emerged.
