Chapter 1498: Chapter 1499: Prey

What kind of heroes or men of valor are you?

From these words it was easy to hear that this Que Yifeng was quite ridiculous. Just now, when he joined hands with Peng Yupeng to suppress Xiao Tianyu, why didn’t he say something like this? Now that Peng Yupeng has been slain by Xiao Tianyu and Li Fei has already arrived, he actually dares to talk about what kind of heroes and men of valor they are.

Dong~

Li Fei took a step forward, too lazy to respond.

In the next second, an incomparably violent power erupted with Li Fei at the center, terrifying to the extreme. Li Fei had just slaughtered two people; his light of Myriad Phenomena had already reached a height of nineteen zhang. How could he possibly care about Que Yifeng’s seventeen zhang?

Hua~

A torrential suppressive might descended from the heavens, making Que Yifeng’s eyes fill with boundless terror. Where was that smug expression from just moments ago?

With just a single step, Li Fei’s pressure alone could suppress him.

Xiao Tianyu strolled out, raised a finger and pressed forward; a streak of Sword Light exploded forth.

"No..." Que Yifeng shook his head, despair on his face. He was the Young City Lord of Xiaoyun City, how could he be willing to die here? But faced with Xiao Tianyu and Li Fei together, he had no path to live.

Puchi~

A soft sound rang out as that Sword Light pierced straight through Que Yifeng’s brow. Blood light burst in the sky above; Que Yifeng stared at Xiao Tianyu in utter despair, and then the battle platform beneath his feet exploded. His Qi of Myriad Phenomena was devoured by Xiao Tianyu.

Hua~

In an instant, Xiao Tianyu’s Qi of Myriad Phenomena also soared to a height of nineteen zhang.

Below the battle platform, the people of Xiaoyun City watched Que Yifeng being killed, their expressions extremely ugly. They knew full well that in this contest, Xiaoyun City was now completely out of the running, and their Young City Lord had fallen here. ℯ

At this moment, the battles on the other fronts were still raging. Above in the sky, dark clouds rolled; waves of torrential suppressive might kept crashing down.

On the Heaven Concealing Sect’s side, the Qi of Myriad Phenomena of Liu Futian, Zhan Futian, He Yang and the others had all reached a height of twenty zhang, terrifying beyond measure. Besides the three from the Heaven Concealing Sect, there were Duan Feng and Bloodslayer from the Celestial Killer Alliance, Peng Ding from Peng Family Castle, Sword Madman and Wu Que from the Celestial Sword Sect—these people had likewise all reached twenty zhang, monstrously frightening.

The gap in strength between the various directions had clearly opened up.

Right now, Mo Qingluan, by contrast, appeared rather dim. Her light of Myriad Phenomena was only seventeen zhang, and she was being firmly suppressed by a youth with nineteen zhang, her situation extremely perilous.

Seeing this, Xiao Tianyu stepped into the air toward Mo Qingluan. Waves of overwhelming Sword Power crushed everything; that youth’s heart trembled at once. He hurriedly glanced back and, seeing Xiao Tianyu striding through the sky toward him, his expression turned very unpleasant.

Earlier, he had watched very clearly as Que Yifeng and Peng Yupeng joined forces and still failed to take down Xiao Tianyu.

All the more so now, when Xiao Tianyu’s Qi of Myriad Phenomena had already reached nineteen zhang?

The youth immediately gave up attacking Mo Qingluan, intending to step into the sky and flee.

Dong~

But in that sudden instant, Xiao Tianyu’s foot slammed down hard; the Heavenly Dao erupted, pinning that youth in place. The youth’s heart shook violently, feeling that under the pressure of Xiao Tianyu’s single step, he had no power to fight back.

Hua~

At the same time, Mo Qingluan’s Cold Ice Sword flared and slashed through the void toward that youth. A single icy Sword Light pierced straight through the youth’s brow.

The battle platform beneath that youth shattered; his Qi of Myriad Phenomena was seized by Mo Qingluan. Mo Qingluan’s Qi of Myriad Phenomena likewise reached nineteen zhang. Her beautiful eyes swept over Xiao Tianyu, and she gave a faint smile without saying more.

The great battle continued for nearly three more hours before it finally began to wind down.

At present, there were only fifteen battle platforms left suspended in the void—which meant only fifteen people remained.

And among these fifteen, in the end only three would advance and leave this place.

Currently, on the Heaven Concealing Sect’s side, the light of Myriad Phenomena behind Liu Futian and Zhan Futian had already reached thirty-five zhang. Even He Yang’s light of Myriad Phenomena had reached thirty-four zhang.

Other than them, there were Duan Feng and Bloodslayer of the Celestial Killer Alliance, both at thirty-five zhang.

Peng Ding and Peng Yuan of Peng Family Castle were likewise at thirty-five zhang.

Sword Madman and Wu Que of the Celestial Sword Sect were no exception.

And there was Tie Jun of Iron Sand City.

Their radiance shot straight into the heavens, terrifying to the extreme, as if this place existed solely as their stage.

Of course, that made ten people. Among the remaining ones were two youths whose light had reached thirty-four zhang.

These two were Wang Gu Mo of Fengyun City and Zhu Yunwen of Heaven-Slaying City.

The light behind Xiao Tianyu was thirty-four zhang.

Li Fei, thirty-four zhang.

Mo Qingluan was likewise at thirty-four zhang.

Compared to Liu Futian and the others, they were lower by one zhang.

Countless gazes were lifted to the sky; seeing this, hearts shook with shock, especially regarding Xiao Tianyu’s trio. Their presence could be called a complete surprise—no one had expected the three of them to endure to the end and enter this final fifteen-man showdown.

The Celestial Killer Alliance, Heaven Concealing Sect, and Peng Family—these three major powers all bore grudges against Xiao Tianyu’s group.

Sword Madman of the Celestial Sword Sect had previously said he wanted to teach Xiao Tianyu how to behave, so naturally he also held a grudge against Xiao Tianyu. Aside from these four major powers, the others also deeply resented Xiao Tianyu.

After all, Xiao Tianyu and his two companions were all from the Outer Domain, so the people of Celestial Island naturally ostracized them intensely.

At this moment, the fighting had come to a halt. All fifteen were shrouded in terrifying Qi of Myriad Phenomena, their light soaring into the sky, making the vast void brim with an incomparably violent pressure. Moreover, bloodthirst flashed in each person’s eyes.

Only three would advance.

Thus it could be said that basically everyone present was an enemy.

More crucially, defeat meant death.

"I think some people should’ve been eliminated a long time ago!" At this moment, Peng Yuan’s gaze swept toward Xiao Tianyu’s trio. Back at the Nitrate River, Xiao Tianyu had not only killed Peng Nian, but also several other people.

Just earlier, Peng Yupeng had also been slain by Xiao Tianyu.

With that, how could the Peng Family possibly let Xiao Tianyu go?

"I think so too!" Liu Futian of the Heaven Concealing Sect also glanced at Xiao Tianyu. To him, it was practically a miracle that these three had managed to hold out until now. As the final decisive battle approached, they naturally wanted to remove Xiao Tianyu’s trio.

"Then I’ll take care of it for everyone!" At that moment, Zhu Yunwen of Heaven-Slaying City fixed his gaze on Xiao Tianyu. His light of Myriad Phenomena was only thirty-four zhang; here he was basically at the bottom. So he intended to use Xiao Tianyu as a stepping stone to raise his own light of Myriad Phenomena to thirty-five zhang.

However, Zhu Yunwen was not the only one at thirty-four zhang. He Yang of the Heaven Concealing Sect and Wang Gu Mo of Fengyun City were also at thirty-four zhang. Who wouldn’t want to use this stepping stone?

In their eyes, only by slaughtering Xiao Tianyu’s trio first, raising their own radiant light to thirty-five zhang, would they have a chance to reach the very end.

"That would be perfect. They happen to be three on that side—one for each of us!"

With that said, Zhu Yunwen, Wang Gu Mo, and He Yang stepped out from the crowd one after another.

Now that the decisive battle was at hand, no one had the luxury of holding back. In their hearts, every single one of them was thinking the same thing: if they could seize one more person’s Qi of Myriad Phenomena, they might just have a chance to reach the end.
