Chapter 1593  Rift

”Whoa! Run away! If youʼre caught up in that, youʼre dead!”

Grand Elder Duʼs Grand Mystic Typhoon was strong enough to kill every entity there, and not wanting to get caught up in their mess, the people at the Endless Beast Den began running away.

”Weʼve only been here a few days, and heʼs already angered someone? Heʼs really talented in that regard, as well.” Xi Meili chuckled slightly before returning to her training.

She had no doubt that Yuan would be able to handle a few Spirit Sovereigns alone and was not worried for his safety in the slightest.

”Donʼt force my hand, young man! This is your final warning!” Grand Elder Du warned Yuan for the final time.

”If youʼre that worried for me, why even bother attacking me in the first place? Just get this over with so I can return to my training.” Yuan said, sounding a little bored.

”What a pity!” Grand Elder Du shook his head and increased the rate at which he gathered his spiritual energy.

A few moments later, he released all of that built-up energy, unleashing the technique.

The massive typhoon immediately collapsed on Yuan, consuming him and everything around him. The magical beasts swallowed by the technique were instantly torn to shreds, and their blood scattered everywhere, causing it to rain blood.

Grand Elder Du panted afterward, completely out of spiritual energy after using that one devastating technique.

”A-are you sure it was okay to kill him when we donʼt even know his identity? A talent like that surely didnʼt come from nowhere. What if he lied about coming from the Lower Heaven and actually came from the Upper Heavens?” one of the other individuals brought by Elder Hao asked in a slightly worried tone.

”I think itʼs a little too late to ask those questions now, Grand Elder Lu,” another individual said.

Grand Elder Du nodded and said, ”Grand Elder Tang is right. Weʼre way past that now. I didnʼt want to kill him, but he left me no choice.”

”You make it sound like I had a sword against your neck or threatened your life.” A familiar voice suddenly resounded.

”W-what…?”

”T-thatʼs impossible!” Grand Elder Du exclaimed after hearing Yuanʼs voice, shouting so loud that his saliva went everywhere.

Whoosh!

As if cut by a sword, the typhoon suddenly split perfectly in half.

Once the typhoon dispersed, Yuan could be seen standing in his original location without so much as a single blemish on his body.

”Y-you must have used a life-saving treasure! Thereʼs no other explanation!” Grand Elder Du cried out loud, not daring to believe that Yuan had endured his most powerful technique with his bare body.

Without responding, Yuan suddenly took a step forward and disappeared into thin air.

When he reappeared, he was standing right in front of Grand Elder Du with a domineering aura around him.

Before Grand Elder Du could even respond, Yuan swung his arm, backhanding Grand Elder Du in the face and sending him flying.

”?!?!”

Seeing this, the other two and Elder Hao immediately went into a combative stance. Yuan glanced at them and said, ”I will only attack those who attack me first, so if you wish for me to attack you, let me know. Otherwise, Iʼm going to resume my training.”

Grand Elder Lu and Grand Elder Tang exchanged glances with each other. They were all Grand Elders, second to the Sect Masters of the Three Grand Sects. They had never been disrespected in such a manner, much less threatened by a junior.

They were both Spirit Sovereigns, an entire realm above Yuan in terms of cultivation. Logically speaking, they should be able to deal with him without even breaking a sweat. Yet, neither of them felt like they could defeat him.

As for Elder Hao… if he thought he could defeat Yuan, he wouldnʼt have requested help from three experts.

”If youʼre not going to do anything, I will resume my training now. Donʼt worry, I will make sure I donʼt bother the others while I am training as long as they donʼt bother me, and I will leave as soon as I am satisfied.”

After uttering such words, Yuan turned around and continued hunting magical beasts without a care in the world, leaving the Grand Elders speechless.

”Maybe we should just leave him alone… Itʼs not like heʼs bothering anyone…” Grand Elder Lu mumbled.

”Huh? You want to let him go after he spat on our faces? If we donʼt do anything, the Three Grand Sects will become a laughingstock once news begins spreading!” Grand Elder Tang looked at her with wide eyes.

Grand Elder Lu turned to look at Grand Elder Du, who was lying on the ground unconscious several miles away after receiving Yuanʼs slap.

”Letʼs attack him together! I bet heʼs only acting tough!” Grand Elder Tang said with a serious frown on his face.

”But I only came here to spectate…” Grand Elder Lu sighed.

”Do you have any idea how much our images will hurt if we back down now?! Not only will we be forfeiting to a junior, but we even allowed him to disrespect the Three Grand Sects! Iʼd be surprised if we remain Grand Elders if we leave without doing anything!”

Grand Elder Lu clenched her teeth after hearing Grand Elder Tangʼs persuasion, but she couldnʼt refute his words.

”Alright… letʼs attack him together…” she eventually agreed.

Grand Elder Tang nodded in acknowledgment.

The next moment, their aura began surging when they started gathering spiritual energy for their technique.

”...”

Yuan noticed what they were trying to do, but he simply ignored them and continued his training, acting as if they werenʼt even there.

His indifference and blatant lack of respect infuriated the Grand Elders, causing their aura to skyrocket.

The Grand Elders unleashed their techniques simultaneously a moment later, and their combined techniques crashed into Yuan and the Endless Beast Den.

The impact violently shook the ground, causing a powerful earthquake.

Additionally, the mountain with the Endless Beast Den exploded.

”...”

The entire place became dead silent as everyone stared at the destruction with wide eyes. The only individual who wasnʼt paying attention was Xi Meili, who was still focused on her target.

Suddenly, a powerful wind with a vacuum effect emerged, drawing in the dust and rubble.

Once all of the dust was gone, everyone could see that a rift had appeared where the Endless Beast Den once existed.

”What is that?” Grand Elder Lu asked.

”No idea… but that wasnʼt there a moment ago…” Grand Elder Tang said. ”Anyway, where did that brat go? Did we vaporize him?”

”Wait… thereʼs no more magical beasts appearing…” Elder Hao suddenly noticed this.

”What? Is it because we destroyed the mountain?” Grand Elder Lu immediately began panicking.

”Thatʼs not possible! This isnʼt the first time the Endless Beast Den has been blown up, and the beasts continued to appear despite that!” Grand Elder Tang quickly said.

”Yuan…?” Xi Meili suddenly halted her training when she noticed that Yuanʼs presence had suddenly disappeared.

When she saw the rift, she immediately thought Yuan had entered it and quickly approached it. However, before she could get close, the rift closed, vanishing into thin air.
