Chapter 607 - 607 Out of the Jaws of

Chapter 607: Chapter 607: Out of the Jaws of Death?Fourteenth Update? Chapter 607: Chapter 607: Out of the Jaws of Death?Fourteenth Update? When this beam of moonlight shone down, all the cultivators in Zhu Island City were shocked.

Those powerful cultivators who usually hid in plain sight, remaining secluded and not leaving their retreats, couldn’t help but open their eyes at this moment and come into their courtyards, looking up at the extremely obvious moonlight in the sky.

Following the path of the moonlight to its landing point, when they saw that it was aimed at a certain villa on Ping Mountain, they couldn’t help but be startled before muttering to themselves, “Is it that old coot from the Huo Family? Unthinkable, absolutely unthinkable, it’s actually him!”

In an ordinary house in Tsim Sha Tsui, an old man with white hair and beard looked toward the location where the moonlight fell, gently stroking his beard and said, “This time, he might truly be able to condense his Golden Core.”

“This old fellow, I thought he was at death’s door waiting to die, but who would have expected him to come up with such a tactic. Remarkable indeed, I’m impressed.”

The cultivators throughout Zhu Island City were now all paying attention to the situation at the summit of Ping Mountain, knowing that if Old Master Huo truly made a breakthrough, extraordinary phenomena would occur.

“Buzz~”

The Seven Star Ancient Sword flew at breakneck speed, breaking the sound barrier, continuously creating sonic booms, frightening the ordinary people below into looking up repeatedly, but with their naked eyes, they could only see a dark shadow flashing by quickly.

...

Old Master Huo, named Huo Yingfei, was currently watching the Spirit Devouring Formation being activated with indescribable excitement in his heart.

Having lived for so many years, Huo Yingfei was now over seventy years old, but his cultivation level had only reached the peak of the Spirit Cultivation Realm.

He had thought that was his endpoint, but he was ultimately fortunate.

By chance, he obtained an ancient tome, and from this book, he discovered another method of breakthrough.

For cultivators to break through, it was merely about absorbing nature’s spiritual energy and refining it into Spiritual Power to incorporate it into oneself.

But for most cultivators, the meridians in their bodies were like creeks, and when cultivating to a certain realm, they had already reached the limit their bodies could bear.

In this situation, there were two choices.

One was to seize another body and cultivate anew, the other was to force a breakthrough.

Neither option was easy.

What Huo Yingfei used was a third method.

By using the pure energy between heaven and earth to gently transform his meridians, making his body stronger, and naturally, he would be able to break through.

The Spirit Devouring Formation was an essential part of the breakthrough process.

But to make a breakthrough, perfect timing, geographical, and human conditions were indispensable.

Now that he had the geographical condition, what he needed to prepare for was to detect when the next lunar eclipse would occur, and as for human conditions, Huo Yingfei originally planned to use wandering spirits as a substitute.

However, Zhang Meng’s sudden appearance made him see an even more suitable replacement.

An extreme yin body, there was nothing more fitting than Zhang Meng for this breakthrough.

If he succeeded this time, not only could Huo Yingfei break through smoothly, but he could also take possession of Zhang Meng’s extreme yin body, which would make his future cultivation efforts yield twice the result with half the effort.

Huo Yingfei could almost see the scene of himself successfully forming his Golden Core, standing at the peak of Ping Mountain, laughing proudly over Zhu Island City.

“Bang!”

A simple and unadorned longsword, like a visitor from the heavens, suddenly descended and pierced through the Spirit Devouring Formation as if it was a Divine Weapon, sending rock debris flying.

Huo Yingfei, who was in the midst of absorbing the essence of the moon, had his process interrupted by this sudden, violent energy, and a mouthful of fresh blood immediately sprayed from his mouth.

Huo Yingfei opened his eyes, his gaze fixed on the ancient sword slanted in the formation, seething with anger, and he bellowed, “Who is it?”

A figure descended from the sky and landed beside the ancient sword.

Clad in a black robe, with an indifferent expression, Li Xiaoyao looked at him and said, “The path of cultivation should be about comprehending one’s destiny, yet you attempt to break through using such heretical and deviant methods. Even if you break through, your achievement will be limited, how pitiful!”

Huo Yingfei angrily said, “Who on earth are you? Why have you destroyed my formation!”

This Spirit Devouring Formation was something he had painstakingly inscribed, spending a fortune in the process.

The stone inscribed with the Spirit Devouring Formation had been fashioned from the essence of stone, gathered from the summits of the Five Great Mountains. The engraving of this formation took him nearly three months to complete.

But now, this formation he had invested countless efforts into, had been destroyed by a young man he had never seen before!

“You attempt to kill my woman, and yet you ask why?” Li Xiaoyao spoke mockingly, turned around, picked up Zhang Meng from the ground.

After sensing her condition, he found that Zhang Meng was weak, but there was no danger to her life.

With a thought, he controlled the Seven Star Ancient Sword to fly out from the broken stones, hovering steadily before him, before carefully placing Zhang Meng upon it.

The Ancient Sword slowly flew away, and only then did Li Xiaoyao turn back to squarely confront Huo Yingfei.

Seeing Li Xiaoyao control the Flying Sword with such ease, Huo Yingfei’s raging emotions quieted instantly, but soon he guessed, “You’re a Mentalist!”

Li Xiaoyao said, “Who I am is not important, what’s important is that you are going to die!”

Having said this, Li Xiaoyao brought his fingers together and, with an empty slash in the air, a terrifying energy instantly cleaved towards Huo Yingfei.

Huo Yingfei’s pupils contracted, and he clapped his palms together, attempting to avoid the strike.

However, Li Xiaoyao’s cultivation level was far superior to his, and Huo Yingfei had been injured from the backlash of his body caused by the interrupted breakthrough, making him no match for Li Xiaoyao.

“Boom!”

Huo Yingfei was blasted down from the villa by the reversal attack, and as the Huo family villa collapsed under this tremendously destructive energy, Huo Yingfei was buried under collapsing debris, his presence gone.

Without a second glance, Li Xiaoyao turned and flew towards the Ancient Sword in the sky.

The strike he had just delivered seemed ordinary, but it actually employed fifty percent of Li Xiaoyao’s strength.

With Huo Yingfei’s level of cultivation, there was no way he could have survived it.

Some cultivators, who had sensed that Huo Yingfei was about to break through, were now hurrying over, wanting to witness the moment of his breakthrough themselves.

However, when they arrived, what they saw was a scene that shocked them immensely.

A young man, with a seemingly simple move, had killed Huo Yingfei, who was at the pinnacle of the Spirit Cultivation Realm!

How powerful was this?

How terrifying was this?

When Li Xiaoyao delivered that strike, all the cultivators around were enveloped in absolute fear, too afraid to move a muscle, the thought to retaliate not even arising.

Who was this young man?

Why had he struck down Huo Yingfei with such deadly force?

Three generations of the Huo family, apart from the third young master Huo, whom Li Xiaoyao had intentionally left alive, were all killed.

The once-dominant force of Zhu Island City had met its end in a manner that was almost laughable.

Underneath the rubble, Huo Yingfei, who should have lost all signs of life, suddenly had a heartbeat.

The moonlight being devoured by the darkness happened to be shining on him.

This remnant consciousness was rapidly recovering.

As the round moon in the night sky was completely devoured into darkness, its original bright moonlight turned into pitch-black beams.

An invisible energy passed into Huo Yingfei, who lay inside the wreckage, through the remnants of the broken formation, in the form of light beams.

The once lifeless and broken body of Huo Yingfei began to recover at a visibly terrifying speed.

The next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes.

At the same time, an extremely powerful aura erupted from within the ruins.
