“Kid, you’re courting death!”
Zhang Yan was furious beyond measure. When had he ever been so humiliated in front of so many people? That last strike, he had underestimated his opponent and didn’t use his full strength, only to have Terra Su break through it and mock him in return.
To Zhang Yan, this was an utter disgrace.
“Kid, you got lucky just now, but with this next move, you’re dead for sure!”
Zhang Yan roared, raising his palms, from which erupted flames that seemed almost tangible.
“True Essence Flames!”
The crowd gasped in astonishment. To briefly condense extremely pure fire attribute True Essence into flames was something only very advanced fire attribute Martial Practitioners could achieve.
Although these flames didn’t last long and couldn’t compare to the Alchemy Flames of an Alchemist in terms of duration, their destructive power was immense and could be used to kill enemies.
For a Martial Practitioner who wasn’t an Alchemist, being able to control flames was already quite rare.
“To condense True Essence Flames at just twenty years old, what a genius!”
“This time, Terra Su is really in danger.”
The crowd buzzed with discussions.
“Die!”
Zhang Yan manipulated the flames in his palms, sending them sweeping towards Terra Su!
At the same time, a smug smile curled at the corner of Zhang Yan’s mouth. This time, Terra Su would be reduced to ashes.
Faced with Zhang Yan’s True Essence Flames, Terra Su neither dodged nor retreated, standing his ground as if petrified by fear.
Terra Su’s behavior left the onlookers in shock. Could it be that the calm demeanor he had shown all along was just an act? Was he really going to be burned to death by Zhang Yan?
The hearts of the South Jiang Manor crowd were in their throats.
At that moment.
Terra Su suddenly sneered, “Zhang Yan, is this your so-called ultimate move? It’s so weak, it wouldn’t even be enough to warm a mosquito!”
With that, Terra Su flicked his finger, sending out a small flame.
This flame seemed insignificant, but as soon as it touched Zhang Yan’s True Essence Flames, it absorbed them completely.
This scene left the previously arrogant Zhang Yan utterly petrified.
What was going on? His proud True Essence Flames were absorbed by a mere flicker from Terra Su?
“Heavens, did I see that right? Terra Su also condensed True Essence Flames?”
“Why do I feel like that’s more like Alchemy Flame?”
“Impossible, Alchemy Flame is something only Alchemy Masters of the fifth rank or higher possess. But Terra Su’s flame is indeed strange, it can absorb other flames.”
The crowd had no idea that Terra Su’s Alchemy Flame contained a trace of the little Celestial Fire’s power, one of whose key traits was the ability to devour other flames.
They only felt that this scene was miraculous, and once again, Terra Su had created a miracle in front of everyone!
“How is this possible?”
Zhang Yan was completely disoriented.
He had never considered the possibility of failure. The True Essence Flames were his ultimate move, used to deal with a Martial Practitioner two levels below him. How could he fail?
But the harsh reality was right in front of him. He had indeed failed.
Zhang Yan stood there in a daze. When one’s most skilled, most proud technique is effortlessly countered, the blow is devastating.
Especially for someone with a proud personality, this was a fatal blow to his confidence.
“Zhang Yan, stop fighting, come back!”
Tuoba Ye sensed something wrong with Zhang Yan and immediately shouted.
With Tuoba Ye’s keen eyes, he could see that Zhang Yan’s Martial Dao heart was showing signs of collapse. This was the most dangerous moment, the easiest time for an enemy to defeat him with one move.
However, Tuoba Ye’s shout came too late.
Terra Su had already struck Zhang Yan’s heart with a palm!
“How dare you!”
Tuoba Ye roared, shooting towards Terra Su!
He had brought Zhang Yan here to temper him, how could he allow Zhang Yan to die at Terra Su’s hands!
But before he could get close to Terra Su, he was blocked by Sophia Xu and her two companions.
“Who dares to block me!” Tuoba Ye’s eyes widened, and with a sweep of his palm, he sent the three flying.
But this delay cost him precious time.
In that moment, Terra Su’s palm had already landed on Zhang Yan’s chest, the explosive force of his Five Elements True Essence fully unleashed, shattering Zhang Yan’s heart with one blow.
Thud!
Zhang Yan’s body fell heavily, his eyes still showing a trace of disbelief, as if he couldn’t believe he had died at the hands of someone in the fifth level of the Condensing Origin Realm.
“You little beast, how dare you kill him!”
Tuoba Ye’s eyes were bloodshot, unable to believe that his most cherished disciple had died at Terra Su’s hands.
“I will kill you to avenge Zhang Yan!”
Tuoba Ye howled to the sky, his killing intent surging as he landed in front of Terra Su, his eyes blazing with extreme anger. He had intended to use Terra Su to temper his disciple Zhang Yan, but he hadn’t expected that in the process, Zhang Yan would be killed by Terra Su!
To Tuoba Ye, this was an utter disgrace. He had to kill Terra Su personally to avenge Zhang Yan.
The crowd gasped, Tuoba Ye was truly enraged. With his cultivation at the ninth level of the Condensing Origin Realm, he could definitely kill Terra Su in one move.
This time, Terra Su was truly doomed.
The hearts of the South Jiang Manor crowd were in their throats!
But.
Just as Tuoba Ye was about to strike Terra Su.
Terra Su’s cold voice suddenly rang out:
“Old man, if you don’t want to die, you’d better not get any funny ideas.”
What?
Tuoba Ye almost thought he had heard wrong.
The others present also wondered if Terra Su had gone mad, daring to speak to Tuoba Ye like that?
First, he killed Tuoba Ye’s most cherished disciple, then he threatened Tuoba Ye. How audacious could he be?
Tuoba Ye was the Grand Elder of the Iron Armor Gate!
The Iron Armor Gate was not like the Ye Family, the Wang Family, or any other enemy Terra Su had faced before.
The Iron Armor Gate was the overlord of a thousand-mile radius. Compared to it, neither the Ye Family, the Wang Family, nor the South Jiang Manor could even be mentioned in the same breath.
Was Terra Su seeking his own death?
Just as Tuoba Ye was about to speak, his gaze fell on Terra Su, and his heart suddenly trembled. The aura Terra Su was exuding at this moment was not that of a fifteen-year-old boy, but of a high and mighty emperor, making people involuntarily want to bow down.
But the next moment, Tuoba Ye snapped back to reality, realizing he had been intimidated by the aura of a mere junior, which only fueled his rage further.
“Kid, did I hear you right? Were you threatening me just now?”
Tuoba Ye laughed in his fury, “Go ahead, tell me how you plan to kill me.”
He was a ninth-level Condensing Origin Realm expert. No matter how heaven-defying Terra Su’s ability to challenge higher levels was, it was absolutely impossible for him to leap four levels to kill him.
So, Tuoba Ye was certain that Terra Su was bluffing. There was no way he had the strength to deal with him.
“I don’t need to do anything. Within seven days, you’ll be dead.”
Terra Su said calmly.
