Chapter 505: Chapter 291: Little Sumeru Sword, The Might of the Brilliant Flame
They split into two strands and shot out.
They flashed past the necks of the male cultivator with the drooping brows and the bald Cultivator.
Time seemed to freeze in that instant!
The savage grin and killing intent on the face of the male cultivator with the drooping brows froze. The cruelty and confidence in the bald Cultivator’s eyes solidified.
Their forward charge came to an abrupt halt, as if they were suspended in midair by an Immobilization Skill.
The next moment—
THUD! THUD!
Two heads, their faces etched with expressions of utter disbelief and horror, slid from their necks and fell to the ground.
The headless bodies, still in their charging postures, gushed blood like fountains from their severed necks before collapsing limply.
Instant Kill!
And it was a simultaneous Instant Kill of two well-coordinated and powerful Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators!
The entire process, from the moment Lin Changheng raised his hand to the moment the two were decapitated, took place in the span of a single breath!
It was so fast that the mind couldn’t even keep up!
The mountain wind blew past, carrying with it a thick, metallic scent of blood.
Then, with two WHOOSHES, flames silently erupted, engulfing the two severed bodies and heads. In a few moments, they were reduced to ash that drifted to the ground.
An even deeper, dead silence fell over the scene!
Yun Zhi and the green-robed Female Cultivator snapped their eyes open, only to witness this dreamlike scene. With their lips slightly parted and their beautiful eyes wide, they stood frozen on the spot, their minds completely blank, utterly unable to comprehend what was happening before them.
’He... isn’t he a Middle Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator?’
’How is this possible...’
’One move...’
’...killed two of them?’
’And they were Late Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators?!’
Immense shock and disbelief crashed over their Hearts and Spirits like a tsunami.
Lin Changheng slowly retracted his finger as if he had just done something utterly insignificant.
Without even glancing at the two falling corpses, he turned his calm gaze to Yun Zhi and the other woman, who were still petrified, and spoke lightly:
"Problem solved."
The dark gold threads of flame, having finished burning the bodies to ash, stopped condensing. Instead, they transformed into two palm-sized Firebirds, each carrying a Storage Bag as they flew over.
The Storage Bags landed in Lin Changheng’s hand and were put away with a flip of his palm. The Firebirds then dissipated, burrowing into the back of his hand and vanishing without a trace.
Only Lin Changheng’s indifferent, nonchalant words echoed quietly across Dragon Fall Ridge, more chilling than the faint, murderous aura that permeated the area!
To the two women of the Yun Family, Lin Changheng’s methods were far too astonishing, mysterious, and unpredictable. He could kill with a mere wave of his hand, leaving no trace.
’What terrifying strength is this? Is this really something a Middle Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator can do? It’s not that we’ve never heard of killing enemies of a higher stage, but to do it so effortlessly... a crush so bizarrely one-sided... it completely shatters our understanding of the world! And these were the very enemies who had chased us to a dead end, foes we found almost unbeatable.’
How could they not be astonished!
But for Lin Changheng, it was easy and effortless. After all, the Dark Radiance Profound Flame was a Tier Three True Fire!
He also had the amplification and control granted by his True Intent of Fire Manipulation Divine Abilities.
Using it against Foundation Establishment Cultivators and their Tier Two techniques was nothing less than an overwhelming crush!
It was like an attack from a higher dimension.
Unless they also possessed Tier Three techniques, Spiritual Objects, or fortuitous encounters to defend themselves, their defeat was only a matter of time. But such situations were rare.
"Th-Thank you, Brother Li, for saving our lives!"
The lingering scent of blood in the air and the heart-pounding aura of the Dark Radiance that had yet to dissipate were constant reminders to the two Yun Family women that everything that had just happened was real.
Yun Zhi was the first to recover from the immense shock. She took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing her turbulent Qi and Blood and the crashing waves in her heart. Pulling along the still-dazed green-robed Female Cultivator, she quickly descended from her Escape Light, landed on the mountain rock in front of Lin Changheng, and gave a deep, formal bow. Her voice, filled with heartfelt gratitude, trembled with the aftershock of surviving a near-death experience:
"We will never forget this kindness for as long as we live!"
This time, her tone was more sincere and reverent than ever before. The true strength of this "Fellow Daoist Li" before her was unfathomable; he was no ordinary person.
Moreover, facing this man, Yun Zhi no longer had the courage or confidence to prepare any backup plans or harbor any clever schemes.
She could only approach him honestly, because if he wanted to kill them, it would be as simple as a wave of his hand!
