Chapter 250: Chapter 223: 24 Spirit Pearls, Slaying Lan Tianming! (Double Chapter)_2

"Clang!"

Not only that, but the sword light grew greatly, although still just thirty strands of sword light, yet its brilliance akin to the Great Sun, dazzling in radiance, scorching to the eyes.

"How is this possible?!"

The Demon Race’s eyes showed disbelief.

Yet the sword light turned in an instant, slashing towards his head.

The ferocity of the sword light was the sharpest he had seen below Golden Core in his life.

"Gurgle"

Just in a face-off, a cyan-faced fanged head was severed to the ground.

But within the corpse, a flicker of spiritual light suddenly arose, wrapping around the cloak and twenty-four pearls, along with dazzling Dharma Seals, swiftly moving and fleeing towards the distance.

This spiritual light was extremely mysterious, containing the intention to teleport across the heavens, faster than imaginable, swifter even than thought.

In just an instant, it vanished into the horizon, disappearing without a trace.

...

...

Meanwhile, deep within Miasma Cloud Mountain, inside a cave concealed by Tier Two Array.

A Daoist with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, possessing an elegant demeanor, suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the cave entrance.

"Whish!"

A flicker of spiritual light, carrying spirit pearls cloak and numerous Dharma Seals, pierced through the air.

"Gulp!"

The Daoist opened his mouth, swallowing the spiritual light into his belly.

Then, within his eyes, like a galloping horse passing by, numerous images suddenly appeared, as if he had insight into everything prior.

The Dharma Seals turned instantly and disappeared into his Dantian.

The cloak adorned with spirit pearls gently landed behind his shoulders.

"Gold-Attribute Magical Power?"

The Daoist murmured softly, his expression extremely grave.

"At just Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment, already this formidable, if left unchecked..."

The Daoist’s eyes showed complex emotions.

Shock, killing intent, regret, many emotions surged simultaneously.

"Not good!"

At that moment, as if sensing something, his expression changed dramatically, and in his palm, turbulent thunder light suddenly rose, striking towards a space in the Cave Mansion.

"Splash!"

Water light spread widely, a tall and handsome young Daoist, disregarding the Array outside the Cave Mansion, directly appeared inside, facing the thunder light.

"Clang!"

The dazzling sword light suddenly shone, directly shredding the thunder light.

"How did you manage to follow my strand of spiritual light?!"

The Daoist said with a somber expression.

"This is the profundity of Gold-Attribute Magical Power..."

Gu Yuan’s eyes shone with brilliant gold, seemingly able to see through the void of heaven and earth, and in his Dantian, the Azure Roaming Heaven-Evading Seal glowed brightly, ready to evade the heavens at any moment.

Prior, the strand of spiritual light within the Demon corpse was indeed extraordinarily mystical, extremely fast, swimming through the heavens in an instant, surpassing any escape light.

But Gu Yuan couldn’t just watch as the "enemy behind the curtain" simply left.

He didn’t hesitate to use two strands of Gold-Attribute Magical Power again, one to activate the Heaven-Revealing Spirit Eye, pushing its power to the limit, tracing a faint track of the spiritual light in the darkness.

The other activated the Azure Roaming Heaven-Evading Seal, enhancing its power to the strongest level below Golden Core, translocating the void, forcibly catching up to the strand of spiritual light.

He just didn’t expect, it was this person who orchestrated the plot.

"Didn’t anticipate, it was actually you..."

Gu Yuan looked at Lan Tianming before him, unable to hold back his surprise.

He recognized this person.

Years ago, he specifically sought the depiction and family information of this person, to prevent unforeseen circumstances.

He thought the past grievances would erupt at this time.

Indeed, a cause and effect ordained by the heavens.

"Was it you who killed Lu’Er?"

Lan Tianming’s eyes were cold, asking quietly.

"At Cloud Cliff Shell Field, he attacked first, harming fellow disciples, so I killed him."

Gu Yuan casually admitted with a wave of his Daoist robe.

There was nothing to hide about this matter.

Both relied on their opportunities and means, meeting on a narrow path; Lan Tianlu wanted him dead, didn’t succeed, can’t blame anyone.

"He was my nephew!"

Lan Tianming said coldly.

"So what?"

Gu Yuan retorted.

It was self-defense, with a clear conscience, regardless of whose nephew he was.

"As for you, you went to such lengths, destroying the Daoist School’s Spirit Ore, manipulating the entire Demon Race of Three Elements Water Marsh, lured me here, all to avenge him?"

Gu Yuan asked coldly.

"Not only for avenging him, but also for clearing my conscience and for the struggle for the True Inheritance..."

Lan Tianming shook his head with a light sigh, a hint of desolation in his tone.

Upon learning that Lan Tianlu died at the hands of Gu Yuan, he once hesitated.

Because Gu Yuan was under the protection of the Sword Fox Immortal, and his means were not shallow; he might become a True Disciple in the future.

For the sake of a nephew, was it worth it?

He once thought of publicly confronting Gu Yuan in a Dao Struggle, with the loser leaving Cyan Peak Mountain for the South Sea Villa, never to return in this lifetime.

But after much hesitation, he ultimately abandoned this option.

Because Gu Yuan was too young, young enough to make him fearful.

In just over ten years, he had already reached Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment, supported by a Golden Core. If one day, he indeed achieved a Golden Core, would there still be a future for the Lan Family?

Such a person, either should not be offended or should be eradicated entirely.

Moreover, with Gu Yuan dead, in the struggle for the True Inheritance decades later, he might be able to advance further!

With this thought, he spared no effort in scheming, luring Gu Yuan here, using a Secret Technique to inhabit the body of an Earth Demon, preparing to kill Gu Yuan.

Only this Miasma Cloud Mountain, with a Demon Race body, can evade the Golden Core’s later investigation and clear himself.

Even if this fails, his true form remains hidden, and Gu Yuan won’t find him.

But unexpectedly, it still ended in failure.

Not only failing to kill Gu Yuan but also exposing his true self, everything was revealed.

"Gu Yuan, it’s useless to say more. Things have come to this point, and only a fight remains!"

"If I win, don’t harbor any resentments after your death!"

"If you win, I will have no complaints!"

Lan Tianming shouted with anger in his eyes, his voice fierce.

"Blood Thunder Soul-Seizing Divine Light!"

His eyes went wild, the Mana within him roared and burned, his hair turned white, and at the same time, a blood-red lightning burst forth suddenly.

This blood-colored lightning seemed to ignore defenses, carrying the power to seize soul spirits, heading straight for Gu Yuan’s face.

With a thought, Gu Yuan activated the Leaving Realm Clarity Seal abruptly, blocking in front of him.

"Boom!"

But at this moment, the blood-colored lightning exploded with a roar, countless red lightning resounded, and the entire Cave Mansion was instantly reduced to dust.

Moreover, the Spiritual Qi of the surroundings was tainted by this blood-colored lightning, making all Techniques seem to malfunction, with a vague illusion as if the end of magic had descended.

"Swish!"

And under Lan Tianming’s feet, an extremely hidden Array suddenly lit up, and a force of Void Power suddenly engulfed his body.

His bold words were false, and when his identity was exposed, Lan Tianming already intended to flee.

But Gu Yuan’s eyes flashed with gold, having long seen through everything.

With Gold-Attribute Magical Power unspent, under the Heaven-Revealing Spirit Eye, any Array could not hide from him.

"Slash!"

He uttered a light command, and another spiral of Gold-Attribute Magical Power rose, falling onto the Golden Bamboo Sword.

Endless Boundless Sword Light shone like a Great Sun, directly tearing apart the Array under Lan Tianming, then transforming into a terrifying Sword Qi Storm, shredding towards Lan Tianming’s flesh.

"Brother Su, save me!"

Despair filled Lan Tianming’s heart, regret overwhelming him, and he could only cry out loudly.

"Junior Brother Gu, how dare you harm your fellow disciples!"

At this moment, a deep voice rang out.

Then a Great Seal that covered the sky descended, pressing down on Gu Yuan.

This Great Seal had a trace of profound and mysterious charm beyond the scope of a Spiritual Artifact.

A Secret Treasure bestowed upon Su Xuanfeng by Master Yuan Zhen, used to suppress the Demon Race of the Three Elements Water Marsh.

But now, it was being used to suppress Gu Yuan.

"Brother Su, what are you doing!"

From a great distance, the voices of Rune Mountain and Shen Anyan came with astonishment and doubt, but it was already too late.

Gu Yuan suddenly felt a mighty force coming from the Void, and all the Mana within him was instantly locked, unable to move.

Taking this opportunity, Lan Tianming flashed with a lightning escape, seemingly about to flee.

"Hoo!"

Gu Yuan exhaled deeply, and in his Dantian, two more strands of Gold-Attribute Magical Power suddenly entered the Golden Bamboo Sword.

The Golden Bamboo Sword let out a clear mournful wail, seemingly unable to bear this terrifying power.

An unprecedented fearsome energy surged like a tide into the thirty Sword Patterns.

"Zheng!"

The sky and earth suddenly brightened, only the Boundless Sword Light flashed and disappeared.

The Great Seal covering the sky trembled ceaselessly, flipped by the golden Sword Light.

"Gu Yuan, how dare you!"

An angry voice came from the Void, but the Sword Light showed no mercy, directly piercing through Lan Tianming completely.

Moreover, the Sword Light swiftly turned, cutting through all barriers, piercing through Su Xuanfeng’s Dantian.

"Ah!"

Cries of agony echoed in the Void, and Su Xuanfeng fell from the clouds.

"Brother Su!"

The voices of Rune Mountain and Shen Anyan came again, but this time, the emotions were completely different.
