Chapter 2122: Abyssal Underground(3)

”Since youʼre so eager to die, allow me to grant your wish!” one of the True Immortals snarled before suddenly lunging at Yuan.

”Supreme Spear Arts, Grand Thrust!”

The cultivator drew his arm back before hurling the spear in his grasp toward Yuan. His aim, however, deliberately avoided any vital organs, as though he wished not to end Yuanʼs life too quickly, but to let him suffer a slow, agonizing death.

Yet the instant the spear touched Yuanʼs body, it stopped cold against his skin, unable to pierce even a fraction deeper. To the wielder, it was as if he had struck an unyielding wall of steel.

“W-What...2”

The manʼs eyes widened in disbelief, refusing to accept what he was seeing. He subconsciously began channeling more Immortal Qi into his strike, pushing with all his strength. Yet, the spear remained frozen in place, unable to advance an inch.

Yuan calmly looked at the spearman and said, ”How are you going to kill me if you cannot even harm me?”

”AHHHH!”

The spearman let out a furious shout, unleashing the full force of his cultivation. A moment later, he felt the spear inch forward and allowed himself a brief smile—only for it to vanish when he realized the truth. Yuan had merely moved back ever so slightly, creating the illusion that the weapon was piercing his body.

”Fuck! What the hell are you doing? Stop fooling around!”

Unable to bear watching any longer, another True Immortal roared in frustration and charged forward, swinging a massive mace—twice the size of his own body—straight at Yuanʼs head.

BOOM!

A violent shockwave tore through the area as the mace slammed down on the crown of Yuanʼs head, hurling him into the ground. The impact shattered the earth, leaving a massive crater in the ground.

“Thatʼs how you do it, Third Brother!” laughed the man wielding the mace.

“Damn it! That was unnecessary, Third Brother! I couldʼve killed him myself if you had given me a little more time!”

“Enough yapping and go search his body! He reached the Golden Immortal realm as an orphan, and heʼs mentioned having fortuitous encounters. Heʼs bound to be carrying something valuable,” Zeng Guoquan barked.

“Yes, Elder Sister!” they replied in unison.

But just as they moved toward the crater where Yuan had fallen, one of the other two brothers suddenly shouted in alarm, ”Watch out!”

The Third Brother barely reacted just in time, but the Fourth--spear in hand--was a split second too slow. A sword flashed toward his face, the gleam of its edge being the last thing he saw before his consciousness was swallowed by darkness.

Though the Fourth Brother never realized how he died, the others were gripped by a surge of sorrow and fury at the sight of a sword driven straight through his face. ”FOURTH BROTHER!”

The other three brothers shouted.

”So loud,” Yuan remarked as he emerged from the crater without even a scratch on his body.

“You bastard! You killed our Fourth Brother!” the remaining three brothers roared, weapons leveled at Yuan as their eyes blazed and Killing intent flooded the area.

”Okay... and?” Yuan replied calmly. ”Did you really expect me to stand here and let you kill me without resistance? Did you think I wouldnʼt fight back? You should be thankful that I gave him a swift and painless death.”

“Kill him! No! Tear him from limb to limb! Make him regret ever being born!” Zeng Guoquan suddenly shouted.

The next moment, all three remaining brothers rushed at Yuan. While the Third Brother wielded a large mace, the other two wielded a sword and a heavy axe.

Of course, no matter what kind of weapon they wielded or how many there were, none of them could get through Yuanʼs physique with their Ancient-grade weapons.

“Elder Sister! Something is wrong! We cannot touch him with our weapons for some reason! Help us!”

“You brainless idiots! If weapons donʼt work, use your martial techniques!”

At her urging, the three brothers swiftly stowed their weapons, opting to unleash their martial techniques instead.

The tunnel shook violently as they executed their most powerful techniques. Yet, Yuan remained utterly unfazed, even letting out a casual yawn.

“Impossible! Even our martial techniques canʼt touch him!” the brothers exclaimed in disbelief as Yuan emerged without a single scratch.

This time, even Zeng Guoquan stood frozen, utterly dumbfounded.

“Iʼd let you have some more fun before I end your lives, but seeing how I am short on time, Iʼll end things here,” Yuan said a moment later.

“You—*

Just as Zeng Guoquan opened her mouth to speak, Yuan released his Supreme Sword Aura. In an instant, the True Immortals were smothered beneath its razor-sharp pressure, every breath laced with the threat of being cut to pieces should they dare to move.

“W-Who... who the hell are you?” Zeng Guoquan cried out loud, forcing the words out with as little movement as possible, her voice strained and uneven under the crushing aura.

“Iʼm just a nobody,” he calmly responded.

As his words faded, Yuanʼs Supreme Sword Aura struck the three brothers at once. Yet he deliberately avoided their vital organs, ensuring they would bleed out slowly, writhing in agony as death crept upon them.

”How can a mere Golden Immortal possess such power...” Zeng Guoquan muttered, her expression dazed.

Yuan stepped toward her at an unhurried pace and said, “Iʼm actually glad you revealed your true colors. Otherwise, I wouldnʼt have had the chance to rid myself of trash like you today.”

”Please... spare me... Il do anything you want!” Zeng Guoquan begged, her voice trembling as she tugged down her upper robes, shamelessly revealing her alluring figure in a desperate bid for mercy.

”Anything?” Yuan asked.

”Anything!” she confirmed.

“Then die for me.”

Yuan seized the Fourth Brotherʼs fallen spear with his spiritual energy and, without hesitation, drove it into Zeng Guoquanʼs stomach, pinning her to the ground.

Zeng Guoquan let out a piercing scream, yet she refused to yield. In a flash, she produced a treasure from her spatial ring and pointed it at Yuan, shouting, ”Even if I die today, Iʼll make sure to take you with me!”
