Urban Immortal Cultivation Supreme

Chapter 1048: Coming to Blows


"Why are you here again?" Ah Xing looked rather helplessly at the person in front of him, who had appeared countless times. Initially, he could remember a few faces, but as the number of people he had severely injured grew, he gradually mixed them up. Now, he couldn't identify who was actually blocking him.

"Do you all really need me dead to be satisfied?" He spread his hands and looked at them with an expression of helplessness. Despite the murderous intent brewing in his heart, Ah Xing was still trying his best to restrain it. He didn't want to indiscriminately kill; he knew that if he did, these people wouldn't just stand there and listen to him—they'd directly rush over and tear him apart.

"I have no interest in your affairs and will not participate. I just want to find a place to have a good night's sleep." He had long forgotten how long it had been since he had a peaceful sleep. Ever since he was labeled a Great Demon who kills without blinking, he was often startled awake in the middle of the night, which was truly the most painful thing in the world.

"Join us, or die." The person at the front only uttered these words with a resolute tone, seemingly adamant about having Yi Tian join them.

"Is that all you can say? Haven't you heard what I just told you?" Ah Xing's face turned sour, appearing as though he had eaten something awful. He truly couldn't understand what these people were thinking. Did their heads contain only mush?

"Join, or die?"

Alright, this time it was those people asking Ah Xing to make a choice. Who knew how many times they had said this type of thing, using the tone perfectly—the thinly veiled murderous threat was so clear and obvious that it made a wise choice easy to make.

Ah Xing soon made a choice, though it wasn't wise—it was a choice nonetheless.

His choice was to directly release his murderous intent. With a swift movement, he dashed in front of that person and slapped them multiple times until they were sent flying. Then he rubbed his hands together and viciously said, "Deserved a beating."

The decisive move indeed startled those people. Just when that person was sent flying by Ah Xing, the people who had come with them finally responded, letting out low roars and rushing towards Ah Xing. Since he dared to attack them, it meant Ah Xing had chosen death.

These people may not be very smart, but they could still recognize unfriendly actions.

In such moments, the advantage of numbers became apparent. With roars shaking the heavens, Ah Xing, standing in front of those people, was pushed back a few steps by the force of the sound. Despite the murderous intent in his heart, Ah Xing hadn't lost his mind. He knew confronting so many people directly was impossible, so he made a wise choice and turned to flee.

He fled with such speed that a rabbit would consider him a descendant.

Regardless of how fast Ah Xing ran, those people behind him wouldn't let him escape easily. Moreover, from the moment they appeared, they had already surrounded him completely. No matter how fast he ran, it was impossible to break out of the encirclement. So those people confidently pressed towards Ah Xing.

Long before this, they had suffered losses under Ah Xing several times, so this time, they gathered others to jointly trap the Great Demon Ah Xing. The advantage in numbers really worked in their favor.

Having just turned to flee only to find no way out, Ah Xing had to stop and watching the approaching crowd helplessly. The sorrow on his face grew more intense, and the murderous intent in his eyes became fiercer.

"Why are you doing this? Letting me go would be letting yourselves go." He spoke so nicely.

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and released dozens of shadows. These shadows moved extremely fast and didn't show the slightest glint under the blazing sun, without any reflection. In their heightened emotions, no one noticed Ah Xing's action. The person at the front only felt a chill in their chest before they fell straight down. No one even noticed when they fell; all eyes were focused on the Great Demon, Ah Xing.

It's unclear who issued a bounty, but whoever brought Ah Xing's head to claim the reward would receive a whole city. In such chaotic times, owning a city was an enormous fortune. Since Qi Yan's incident, the remaining intact cities on this planet are few. Most new cities constructed are by these factions themselves, making them incredibly hard to conquer. Having a city now means wielding significant power.

Ah Xing naturally had no idea what thoughts churned in these people's minds. He was merely calculating which direction offered the best chance to breakthrough. Looking around, all he saw were people; he truly didn't know which direction to choose.

"Next time someone tells me having more people doesn't matter, I'll beat them up." Ah Xing cursed angrily, bending down and charging at the weakest point in the encirclement. With an observational skill others lacked, he could naturally locate weaknesses quickly.

Finding versus being able to escape are two different matters. Given the current number of people, whether Ah Xing could break through was uncertain. Clearly, he wisely chose to try anyway.

Unlike Tang Mu and others, Ah Xing's energy lacked any explicit attributes, also differing from Yi Tian's ability to transform energy into different attributes. Ah Xing's energy was wholly attribute-less, pure as pure water, devoid of impurities. This benefited cultivation but lacked powerful offensive strength—not that it was entirely without attack power, especially considering his opponents weren't seasoned figures like Tang Mu.

He moved his hands in circles in front of him, using his energy's unique qualities to stir the surrounding energy, causing a small disturbance and destabilizing the surrounding energy. Anyone attempting to penetrate this layer of seemingly ordinary air barrier would receive an unexpected shock.

Quickly departing his current location, Ah Xing's speed wasn't particularly slow, faster than ordinary Wind Element Superpower Users by a fraction. But amidst the encirclement, his speed advantage couldn't manifest. He barely ran far before colliding with the first wave of enemies. With a flick of his wrist, dozens more black rays were flung out among the crowd.

The faint sound of penetration was drowned in overwhelming cries. Soon dozens of figures collapsed in the crowd, unnoticed by anyone except Ah Xing. The collapse of dozens didn't lessen Ah Xing's pressure; instead, as he was drawn into the crowd, the invisible pressure increased.

At that moment, his previous traps finally sprang into action.

No one knew which unlucky soul triggered Ah Xing's trap, followed by a muffled explosion. Amidst the thronged crowd, such a sound was negligible. Then chaos intensified as beams of light shot outward—not chasing Ah Xing but scattering in every direction.

The energy within the randomly shooting beams wasn't particularly strong, but among the densely packed Superpower Users, the chain reaction was terrifying. The first beam triggered the energy around a Fire Element Superpower User; immediately, red flames exploded forth, spreading towards the surroundings.

Then, other people's energies were triggered, like dominoes falling one by one, with Superpower glows appearing among the crowd like blooming flowers. If observed from the sky, the sight would indeed be breathtakingly dazzling.

Ah Xing had absolutely no interest in the chaotic scenes taking place in the crowd. As he sensed energy swirling madly, he realized his trap was effective, but this outcome surprised even him. To avoid being caught up in it, he practically used both hands and feet to break through the crowd.

Finally breaking through at the weakest point, Ah Xing exhaled heavily, intending to leave the danger behind quickly when, suddenly, a figure appeared before him accompanied by a familiar voice.

"Oh my, Ah Xing, you really look more than a bit of a mess." Tang Mu appeared in front of Ah Xing with a playful smile.
