Chapter 315 The Mob
"Boom!"
As Luo Hui truly met his end at the hands of Qinchuan, a burst of astonished cries erupted from the crowd.
"How is this possible!"
"Even Elder Luo is no match for this kid?"
The elders from the Nine Great Clans were all staring at the decapitated Luo Hui on the martial arts platform, speechless with shock.
"This was a Supreme Saint! Even if that old ghost Chi wanted to suppress Elder Luo, he would have had to expend considerable effort—how could he have been killed so effortlessly by him?"
The very elders who had previously mocked Qinchuan for his arrogant overconfidence now fell into stunned silence, all hushing up.
The elders and disciples of the Burning Heaven Sect had been dumbstruck and rendered speechless a while ago, since Qinchuan was not well-known before, only a few disciples heard that Qinchuan had become a direct disciple of the Sect Leader.
Back then, many disciples were resentful, thinking to humiliate Qinchuan severely during the sect's grand competition and force him to give up being the Sect Leader's direct disciple.
Later, news came out that Qinchuan was not the Sect Leader's direct disciple, but had actually become a Supreme Elder of the sect.
At that point, the news had not yet spread widely, but these people were even more resentful, not understanding why the Sect Leader and the ancestors had lost their minds to appoint a boy from the Meridian Opening Realm as a Supreme Elder.
Today, Qinchuan defeated three adversaries in a row, with even Luo Hui at the Supreme Saint Early Stage proving no match for a single move from Qinchuan, and only then did everyone suddenly realize that Qinchuan's strength far exceeded what they had imagined.
...
In the critical final moment, Luo Hui had already discovered through the oppressive power imbued with Stellar Force that the power Qinchuan was using originated from a formation.
Therefore, he wanted to warn everyone in his last moments that it was the power of a formation and not a Divine Soul Artifact.

But just as he had uttered two words, his head had already been taken by a spear thrust from Qinchuan.
Following Luo Hui's death, a small bell gleaming with golden light emerged in the void. Qinchuan reached out with one hand and drew it into his grasp.
Glancing impassively at a black-robed elder from the Heavenly Sword Sect, he spoke ambiguously, "This is quite a fine Soul treasure. If it weren't for the fact that my attack didn't rely on Soul power, I might have indeed fallen for your ruse."
After saying this, he casually tossed the Divine Soul Supreme Treasure to Chi Shan, adding, "Although it's a good item, it's of no use to me. Consider it a gift to you."
The black-robed elder below truly felt a pang of distress.
This Divine Soul Artifact was not inferior to common Dao Artifacts. Even if it was only a Half-Step Supreme Dao Artifact, it remained immensely precious, and he would not exchange it even for a Supreme Dao Artifact refined by a Great Emperor.
Unexpectedly, it had now been seized by Qinchuan, but at this moment, he did not dare to climb onto the platform to take it back, feeling extremely frustrated.
Moreover, in Qinchuan's mouth, this incredibly precious Divine Soul Artifact had essentially become trash.
Qinchuan's words were not false; his Sea of Consciousness now housed an Asura Divine Soul, his soul power could be said to be unique in this world, and not even the beings above in the Divine Realm could match Qinchuan.
To him, this treasure that was considered precious by even Supreme Saints, naturally became junk.
"Next!"
Qinchuan stood on the martial arts platform, casting a domineering gaze across the Eight Desolates. His entire being radiated tangible killing intent, his blood-red aura bursting forth, coloring the entire sky crimson.
At this moment, Qinchuan was like an Asura God of Death, with an indescribable chill shimmering in his eyes.
He swept his cold gaze around.
When the elders from the Nine Great Clans met Qinchuan's gaze, they felt as if they were being stared at by a demon from the Purgatory of the Abyss, sending chills down their spines.
Qinchuan relentlessly defeated three individuals—Saint, Great Saint, Supreme Saint, all with a single strike, and what's more terrifying was that no one could clearly see what power Qinchuan was using to suppress them.
The elders had thought Qinchuan possessed a Divine Soul Artifact and with its help, had caused both Bai You and Bai Su to suffer a great disadvantage.
But after Luo Hui's death and the disappearance of his path, they dismissed that guess.
Luo Hui was a Supreme Saint Expert, and he also had a Half-Step Supreme Dao Artifact for defense against Soul attacks.
Even if Qinchuan had a Divine Soul Artifact, it was impossible for him to trap Elder Luo in an Illusion Realm.
At this moment, everyone had become completely cold with fear.
Even Luo Hui had died unclearly and unknown; how could they dare to challenge Qinchuan?
Artifacts tempt the heart, but one must have a life to enjoy them!
People cast sidelong glances, not daring to meet Qinchuan's gaze, let alone step up to challenge him.
"The Nine Great Sects, such as they are, are truly just a rabble, easily defeated."
"Who gave you the audacity to come and pressure my Burning Heaven Sect?"
Seeing that no one from the Nine Great Sects dared to come forward to challenge, Qinchuan snorted coldly and spoke provocatively.
"You—"
A great elder from the Nine Great Sects barked angrily, but upon reflection that even Luo Hui had died at Qinchuan's hands, he was suddenly speechless and no longer spoke, with an indescribable sense of frustration in his heart.
It was unexpected that among the more than ten great elders of the Nine Great Sects, not a single one dared to battle Qinchuan.
Inside the Heavenly Sword Sect, the black-robed elder felt a mix of emotions. On one hand, he was still worried that Qinchuan had noticed the matter of him lending the Soul Suppressing Bell to Luo Hui earlier.
On the other hand, he was pondering what exactly Qinchuan was up to.
The conspiracy to calculate against the Burning Heaven Sect had originally been the idea of the Holy Palace, but now Qinchuan's appearance had completely disrupted their plan.
"Could it be that he is not an insider sent by the Holy Palace to infiltrate the Burning Heaven Sect? It's one thing not to cooperate with us, the Nine Great Sects. But why is he repeatedly obstructing our actions?"
Thinking up to this point, the black-robed emissary stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Elder Qinchuan with his heroic and formidable presence, in this world..."
Qinchuan glanced at him coldly and knew what he wanted to say, not bothering to listen to his ramblings, "Do you want to come up and battle?"
"Er—"
The black-robed elder suddenly found himself unable to speak further; he had intended to remind Qinchuan to step down so that the great elders of the Nine Great Sects could challenge the other great elders of the Burning Heaven Sect and deplete their strength, but Qinchuan wouldn't even listen.
Even though Qinchuan was a person from the Holy Palace, he couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart.
But upon considering the style in which those from the Holy Palace acted, he immediately suppressed it and said no more, stepping back silently.
Just as everyone fell into silence.
Suddenly, a loud boom came from the distant void.@@novelbin@@
"Boom—"
Following this loud boom, there were also continuous rumbling humming sounds coming from beneath the ground.
Afterward, the crowd suddenly noticed that the ground began to shake violently.
In an instant, it was as if mountains were crumbling and the earth was quaking.
Countless disciples within the Burning Heaven Sect could not stand steady and fell to the ground.
"What's happening?"
"What has occurred?"
The great elders and disciples of the Burning Heaven Sect changed their expressions, unsure of what had happened.
Only Chi Shan and others quickly realized what was occurring.
"Someone is attacking the Mountain Protection Array!"
Chi Shan, who had realized this, immediately shouted, his authoritative voice echoing throughout the entire arena, "All great elders heed my command! Miscreants are attacking the mountain; everyone, quickly return to your positions to defend!"
The black-robed emissary looked towards the distance, staring intently, filled with his own doubts.
"It's not yet the agreed upon time, why start breaking the formation so soon?"
But he quickly came to his senses, "No matter why the attack has started prematurely, it's vital to hold off these great elders of the Burning Heaven Sect."
What do you think?
