Heavenly Tyrant Martial Soul

They looked at the shrunken corpse on the ground, and everyone's face became ugly. Some were shocked, some were angry, and some were deeply afraid.

"What...what happened?" One of them asked in a trembling voice, and his eyes swept around, trying to find traces and clues of the battle.

"The prey...turned into the hunter..." Another person murmured to himself, his voice full of disbelief and shock. In this world where the strong are respected, they have long been accustomed to playing the role of hunters, but never thought that one day they would become someone else's prey.

The people around were silent, they stared at the corpse, their hearts full of complex emotions.

This sudden change made them deeply realize the cruelty and impermanence of this world. Ling Xiao and Lie Zu had disappeared in the vast void, leaving behind this land baptized by battle, and those who were still in shock and fear.

Some people chose to leave. They came here just to try their luck. If they could get the treasure by chance, it would be good, but now they might lose their lives here, so they naturally didn't want to stay any longer.

About an hour later, the atmosphere at the scene became heavier, and the air seemed to freeze, leaving only the whisper of the wind and the faint roar of beasts in the distance, adding a bit of loneliness and danger to this desolate land.

There were some scattered footprints and discarded equipment scattered around, showing the panic and escape of the crowd before. At this moment, there was only one old man left at the scene, standing alone, like a stone monument that had experienced wind and frost, standing firm.

The old man was slightly hunched, but his eyes still flashed with unyielding light, as if he was supported by some firm belief.

His clothes were slightly worn, but every stitch and thread showed the precipitation and tenacity of the years. He seemed unwilling to leave just like that, as if in this dangerous place, there were still reasons or expectations for him to stick to it.

Perhaps relying on his own strong strength, the old man did not retreat because of the bad surrounding environment. His face was full of traces of time, but his calmness and confidence could not be ignored.

He even sat down cross-legged, with his legs slightly bent, his hands gently resting on his knees, his eyes closed and his mind focused, as if he was practicing, or as if he was feeling the pulse of this world.

"Haha, old man is really patient, are you really not afraid of death?" At this time, an abrupt voice sounded, with a bit of teasing and puzzlement.

Ling Xiao suddenly appeared, dressed in brocade clothes, with light steps, a smiling expression on his face, and walked towards the old man step by step, each step seemed to step on the ripples of the air, appearing both mysterious and powerful.

The old man suddenly opened his eyes, staring at Ling Xiao, without saying a word, but directly blasted out with a palm.

Boom!

The air seemed to be torn apart at this moment, and a majestic spiritual power fluctuation suddenly erupted, instantly lifting the dust and gravel around, forming a chaotic storm.

Under this blow, Ling Xiao's body suddenly exploded like fragile porcelain, turning into bits of debris, scattered in the air, flashing strange light, as if even the dust in the air was given life.

"Doppelganger?"

The old man frowned, and a trace of surprise and confusion flashed in his deep eyes. He did not expect that the opponent could easily resolve his full-strength attack, leaving only an illusory afterimage.

Just as the old man was thinking, a clearer figure quietly appeared behind him. It was Ling Xiao. There was a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, as if everything just now was just an insignificant game.

"I just said a few words to you, why are you so anxious..." Ling Xiao's words were a bit teasing, and he didn't seem to take the old man's attack to heart. However, before he finished speaking, the old man's figure flashed like a ghost again, and another palm, with an overwhelming momentum, blasted towards Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao's body exploded again, turning into light spots all over the sky, but this time, the old man's eyes were more determined and vigilant.

Because he clearly sensed that this was still a clone, not Ling Xiao's real body. The air was filled with a subtle and tense atmosphere, as if an invisible contest was quietly going on.

"Boy, sneaking around is not a good thing. Give the treasure to me, and you can safely reach the Zhaixing Tower. Otherwise, you can escape today, but not tomorrow."

The old man snorted coldly, with unquestionable majesty in his voice. His eyes seemed to be able to see through all illusions and look directly at every corner where Ling Xiao might hide.

"Escape?"

Ling Xiao's voice was a little teasing, and he appeared above the old man's head again out of thin air, as if space was just a layer of gauze to him, and he could shuttle through it at will.

He stood in the void, his clothes fluttering, and his eyes revealed a kind of detached indifference, "Why should I escape? If I really want to escape, none of you can find it. I just want to see who is so stubborn that he must kill me."

The old man heard this, his face changed slightly, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes. He gathered his strength again, and quickly formed seals with both hands. A more turbulent energy wave gathered in his palm, as if to swallow up the whole world.

Please collect the book!

Bang!

This time, the attack, with the force of thunder and lightning, rushed straight towards Ling Xiao. However, surprisingly, Ling Xiao was not killed, but was only pushed back a few steps by this powerful force. He stood steadily in the air, and his clothes fluttered without wind.

"Not a clone?" The old man was stunned for a moment. He originally thought that this time it would be Ling Xiao's clone who was playing tricks, so he didn't use much force, preparing to leave room for the next change.

But when the attack was launched, he realized that Ling Xiao in front of him was actually real. He wanted to launch an attack again, but found that he had a short gap because of his previous misjudgment.

In this lightning moment, a heart-pounding breath suddenly spread from the void, as if some terrifying existence was awakening. The old man's face turned pale in an instant, and he felt an unprecedented crisis.

At this moment, a bright attack like the scorching sun came from the depths of the void, with the power of destroying the world, pointing directly at the old man. That was the attack of Lie Zu, a strong man in Bao Yuan Realm. His sneak attack was tantamount to a disaster for the old man.

Although the old man was also a strong man in Bao Yuan Realm, he was completely defenseless and faced with Lie Zu's sudden and all-out attack. He was powerless to resist.

His figure staggered in the air, and then he was hit hard on the back. The whole person fell heavily to the ground in the distance like a kite with a broken string, raising a wave of dust and gravel.
