Chapter 40: A Battle between Heaven’s Chosen. The Newcomer Fleeing

He stared intently at the newcomer’s sudden outburst. A hint of understanding flashed through his heart.

“Oh no. Looks like your Dao companion has really been snatched by someone.”

He then looked at the green-robed man. It was as if someone had hit a sore spot. His expression became somewhat malevolent.

His chest rose and fell rapidly as his teeth trembled slightly. He glared angrily at Su Yi as he gnashed his teeth in anger.

“I want you to die!”

As he spoke, his aura burst forth as another palm print attacked. However, this time, it was even more powerful than the previous one.

As the palm print whistled over, Su Yi’s gaze focused. He placed his palms together in front of his chest and shouted.

“Fifth move. Tiangang Sword Intent Finger!”

Cold air gathered at the tip of his finger as streams of sword qi condensed.

“Go!”

When he saw that Su Yi had also launched an attack on him, the newcomer waved his left hand and unleashed another palm print as he shouted.

“Die!”

“Azure Violent Wind Palm!”

The two palm prints gathered and formed an even more powerful aura as they suppressed Su Yi’s sword intent finger. He wanted this attack to shatter Su Yi’s immortal destiny seal.

Boom!!

With a loud explosion, the combined palm imprints and sword qi interweaved, creating a wave of air.

At the same time, a strong wind vortex appeared in the explosion, continuously tearing the surrounding air and pulling it to the center.

Feeling the cyclone that was continuously absorbing the wind pressure, Su Yi retreated a few feet. The other party was also clear about what that cyclone was and also kept a distance from it.

Soon, the cyclone seemed to have reached its limit, and after a wave of fluctuations, it actually exploded.

Boom!!

The huge explosion spread to the nearby rubble, and the rubble was crushed into powder by the terrifying wind pressure.

It could be seen just how powerful the other party’s attack was.

“You can even block Azure Violent Wind Palm. It seems that I have underestimated you.”

The newcomer’s eyes stared coldly at Su Yi as if he was about to devour him. Su Yi’s words had touched his heartstrings, and he immediately wanted to kill him.

However, after the exchange of blows, he calmed down slightly. He was still confident in his ability to defeat Su Yi.

Why did not he receive any news of such a person coming to the central plains? Could it be that some dark horse had suddenly appeared?

Su Yi looked at him and found that the other party had stopped for some reason. Perhaps he was thinking? However, he would not give the other party time to catch his breath.

“Sixth move. Tiangang Cold Hell Finger!”

He closed his eyes and raised his right hand. His index finger and middle finger merged together, and the true essence in his body started to twitch.

A cold light started to gather at the tip of his finger, and the cold intent started to gather. The air around his body suddenly became cold, and the cold light seemed to have solidified.

“Go!”

He raised his finger lightly, and the sword finger turned into a ray of light that shot towards his opponent.

Wherever the ray of light passed, the cold intent would invade, and even the smooth rocks were covered in frost and snow.

Seeing the might of his sword finger, the green-clothed man was shocked, and at the same time, he quickly formed a seal with his hand.

His expression was solemn, and his gaze was extremely grave as he shouted in a low voice.

“Azure Dragon Realm-breaking Fist!”

A bright light gathered on the right hand of the man. One could vaguely see the shadow of an azure dragon twirling around it.

His body moved and his right hand clenched into a fist. He actually faced Su Yi’s Tiangang Cold Hell Finger.

His smashed his heavy fist onto the sword qi.

The green-clothed man only felt his right hand stiffen. The instant he came into contact with the cold glow, he could feel an extremely overbearing chill spreading from his fist.

Even the astral qi on his fist was showing signs of dissipating. Hence, his gaze turned ruthless as he shouted in a low voice.

“Break!”

The azure dragon astral qi on his fist exploded, shattering the ice crystals that had condensed on his arm. However, at the same time, his move was also canceled out.

He covered his arm and with a few movements, he landed on the ground only a few feet away from Su Yi. He stared at Su Yi and said coldly, “your strength… It is powerful enough to be called a seed. How about you receive this move of mine?”

As he spoke, the fury in the green-clothed man’s eyes dissipated by more than half. However, what rose up was a battle intent.

The green-clothed man began to wave his hands, and a vast might began to gather in his hands.

An illusory green dragon shadow continuously danced behind him, and the surrounding ground began to crack. Stones began to shatter under his might.

Even Su Yi could feel the might within the dragon shadow.

The man waved his hands, gathered them in front of him, and shouted loudly, “Azure Martial Art’s ninth move, Azure Dragon Sky Shattering Roar!”

“Ha!”

As he finished speaking, the dancing azure dragon shadow behind the man brought with it a high-pitched dragon roar. Its entire body was filled with a heavy aura as it charged towards Su Yi.

Wherever the dragon phantom passed by, the ground would explode.

When Su Yi saw that his opponent had already executed his move, he squinted.

His hands converged, and a sense of destruction rose from his fingertips.

He spoke softly.

“Tenth move. Tiangang Meteor Finger!”

A destructive power began to gather at his fingertips, and the scattered light beams began to gather, forming a ball of light at his fingertips.

“Go!”

Su Yi shouted, and the attack shot out at the speed of light, spiraling towards the azure dragon shadow.

Buzz–

When the two attacks clashed, there was no earth-shaking explosion sound, and instead, they were grinding each other down.

Suddenly, the green-clothed man’s face turned pale. After performing so many attacks, his true essence was about to run out. Especially the last attack, which not only consumed a lot of true essence.

A mouthful of blood rushed up to his throat. The azure dragon shadow did not have any true essence to support it, and it was quickly destroyed by the Tiangang Meteorite Finger.

The remaining power of the Tiangang Meteorite Finger landed on the green-clothed man’s body.

He spat out a mouthful of blood, and there was a flash of light on his body. It seemed that some life-saving magic treasure had protected him.

Su Yi walked towards the man. He did not think too much of wasting words. He raised his hand and was about to destroy his immortal destiny seal.

However, the other party suddenly laughed wildly.

“Hahaha, you are very strong! But you can’t catch me!”

“I will remember you. Just wait. Since you are in the central plains, we will meet again one day!”

“Escape art, Azure Dragon Travel Cloud!”

Upon hearing this, Su Yi hurriedly shot out a sword finger, but it missed.

That sword finger passed through the body of the green-clothed man and hit the ground. The figure of the green-clothed man turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared on the spot.

“Tsk, I actually let him escape,” he looked at the place where the man disappeared and muttered. As for what the man said, he did not take it to heart.

He returned to the place where the Frigid flame underworld tiger was. He discovered that the demon king seemed to have been affected and was on the verge of death. Hence, he casually pointed his finger and ended its life.

He waved his hand and began to collect the materials on its body.

[Hint: Collection successful. Obtained foundation establishment realm demon core x 1, foundation establishment realm demon king fur x 1, demon king tiger tooth x 4.]
