Itoh Jinsu felt that his judgement of the situation should be accurate, which was why he dared to simply waltz in like this.
However, the Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts from the four powers simply exchanged a look and directly attacked together without any hesitation!
One Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert from the Qin Clan, four from the Martial Practitioners Control Department, one from the Lan Clan, and two more from the Eight Extremes Sect—eight Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts was attacking together!
"What?!"
Itoh Jinsu had not expected that these locals were actually so united. The force of eight Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts all attacking together caused an immense pressure to descend over the entire area!
Itoh Jinsu unsheathed his treasured katana and readied himself. This blade of his had killed countless people, and exuded a baleful aura which surged to the sky!
The President of the Martial Practitioners Control Department was a 67-year-old man, and his cultivation was the highest among all the people present.
Seeing Itoh Jinsu draw his sword, not only did he not retreat, he advanced with greater speed instead!
One of his palms turned jet-black in an instant, and a dark light shimmered around it under the sunlight, looking dazzling and sinister.
"Dang!"
The treasured blade which had reaped the lives of countless people was forcefully bent in half by this strike!
Without waiting for Itoh Jinsu to react, the Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert from the Eight Extremes Sect charged over and started his assault!
His hands, legs, elbows, shoulders, and his entire body was like a deadly weapon. His speed was so fast that no one could catch his movements!
No matter how seamless a defense was, there would inevitably be a slip up. Under the ferocious assault of the Eight Extremes Sect expert, Itoh Jinsu finally received a clean hit!
"Pa!"
The back of Itoh Jinsu's shirt instantly burst open as the energy blasted through his chest. Spiting out a mouthful of blood, he staggered backwards uncontrollably.
"Weng!"
The Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert from the Lan Clan hugged an ancient sword to his chest. There was no sight of his strike, but the sound of his sword keening could be heard rising into the air!
Everyone's gazes were attracted by this sword. The sword light was like a streak of rainbow, chopping down towards Itoh Jinsu's head!
In that moment, Itoh Jinsu struggled with all his might and ignited the blood and Qi in his body. His entire body suddenly grew twofold as he sent a fist smashing towards the sword ray!
"Boom!"
A huge smoke cloud rose up into the air as a long sword scar several dozen meters in length and of unfathomable depth appeared in the ground!
Without any hesitation, Itoh Jinsu turned around and fled! His figure instantly appeared several hundred meters away, and he cut a sorry figure as he continued to flee at extreme speeds! If the fight continued like that, he would definitely die!
In that moment, he could only choose to run first and come back in the future for revenge!
Qin Rulong chuckled coldly as he watched Itoh Jinsu escaping into the distance. Not seeming to be in any hurry, he casually grabbed his bow and attached three arrows to it. Then, he turned the bow and aimed it towards the tiny fleeing figure of Itoh Jinsu who was now only a tiny black dot in the distance!
The other Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts had also stopped, none of them bothering to give chase.
"Dammit, all of you just wait! I will definitely be back for your heads!"
Although he did not know why they had stopped pursuing him, Itoh Jinsu was still unable to improve his mood. This time, the injuries he had suffered were truly too heavy. He would require at least ten years of recuperation to recover!
"Keji!"
At this moment, Qin Rulong's bow was being drawn open slowly, emanating an annoying creaking sound the entire time. It sounded like an unoiled machine, extremely grating to the ears.
"Beng!"
A thunderous sound suddenly rang out, causing everyone to jump in shock. Qin Rulong's bow was completely empty and straight now. The three arrows on it had disappeared before they knew it!
"Go and bring back that fellow's head for me!"
After releasing the arrows, Qin Rulong turned around with disinterest as he commanded lightly. He was extremely confident in his own skills.
All three arrows had been infused with a large amount of Qin Rulong's blood and Qi energy, and they flew at an inconceivable speed. They seemed like they had teleported through space, directly appearing right behind Itoh Jinsu!
Itoh Jinsu who was still fleeing madly immediately felt a piercing aura on his body as a painful sensation bored into his back. In that instant, he forcefully moved his body and narrowly avoided the arrow which was shooting towards his heart!
However, he dodged right into the other two arrows which sunk effortlessly into the back of his head and his dantian!
The entire fight had only lasted less than a few minutes, but Itoh Jinsu, a lofty Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert, had already been slain!
The Xiantian Lords who came with him were shortly suppressed by the Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert from the Lan Clan. However, he did not opt to kill them yet.
Although the fight had only lasted for a few short minutes, everyone was able to fully witness the strength of Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts!
Every move of theirs seemed to flow in accordance with the heavens and the earth. Each punch and kick caused one to feel as if it was impossible to avoid!
"You damn old relic, I thought you'd died already after not appearing for a hundred years!" One of the Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert from the Eight Extremes Sect laughed aloud as he turned to Qin Rulong. "However, your archery skills seem to be getting more and more impressive!"
"Hmph! If an undying old man like you is still fine, how could I possibly die first?"
Qin Rulong smiled lightly as he surveyed the scene. Among all the experts here, he only knew this coarse old fellow. All his other friends had already died long ago.
Bei Feng retracted his gaze and mumbled, "So this is what a Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert is like? Their control over their strength has reached a state of perfection. There is no need for any superfluous actions. Every strike could be considered a full force strike!"
Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts have already trained their martial techniques to an extreme point. They no longer needed to adhere to a particular form or style. Every stroke and movement was something that suited them the most, and could allow the martial technique to complement their abilities the most!
Every regular move was already capable of being a deadly blow. And when they utilized their martial techniques, the effects would be even more extraordinary!
Bei Feng shook his head with shock. The distance between himself and a Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert was still too big, even wider than the gap between a normal person and a Xiantian Lord!
It was a wonder how some people at the Fake Dan realm or peak Xiantian realm managed to fight and kill Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts!
'But in any case, methods like that are too rare. It is more realistic to just concentrate on cultivating upwards step by step,' Bei Feng thought silently. He was only a mid stage Xiantian Lord right now, but he could already sweep through the Xiantian realm unparalleled. That was already considered as not too bad. He felt much better as he thought back to those people whom he had skipped levels to defeat.
He cast his gaze over the crowd, briefly stopping on the figure of Qin Wufa for a moment before shifting away.
There was a saying that the greater one's hopes were, the greater the disappointment!
Bei Feng was the same as well. When he was young, he had always hoped that his parents would show up one day and bring him home. But as he grew older, that hope began to wane.
Only when he came across the Myriad Heavens Fishing System and obtained the power to take care of himself did that hope finally disappear completely! What was left in its place, however, was a heavy disappointment!
Right now, he was already a grown man in his twenties. He could not accept, nor did he need to call, a person he had never known as father!
Qin Wufa also felt the gaze of someone on him and turned around instinctively. In that moment, his eyes met Bei Feng's.
But just as he opened his mouth to say something, about a dozen soldiers suddenly emerged from the gigantic pit. After a few words from the President of the Martial Practitioners Control Department, everyone was ordered to back off from the pit.
The crowd moved back ten kilometers before finally stopping.
"Kaboom!"
A deafening blast like that of a thunder clap reverberated through the mountain, spreading outwards for a hundred li!
Large amounts of stones and mud flew all over the place, and a huge mushroom cloud about half a kilometer wide rose into the air!
No one made a sound as they observed this scene with trepidation in their hearts. This was the power of modern-day nuclear weapons! How terrifying and destructive!
And this was just a weak version of the nuclear bomb, but it was already at a level that even Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts would not be able to withstand! There was no need to mention those several thousand ton nuclear bombs! The power contained in those bombs was definitely on the apocalyptic level!
It was precisely the existence of these ultimate weapons that ensured that the country could prosper unmolested by other countries. It was also the threat of these weapons that allowed the state to suppress those martial practitioners who would otherwise behave in a lawless manner!
