Now, Sun Zhe's cultivation has reached a level that can be considered the best beneath the Thunder Sovereign, relying on the powerful Thunder Power within him. Even some cultivators who have just entered the Realm of Thunder Sovereign would find him a worthy opponent. Undoubtedly, he has already achieved his primary goal of entering the Northern Mang Secret Realm, and such cultivation is enough to make the higher-ups of the Xuan Lei Sect take notice of him. Coming to this secret realm's Third Floor is to accomplish his second objective: obtaining the item that Fang Yuan possesses, which is now in his hands—the Black Cauldron.
However, aside from this second goal, he has another task to complete: killing!
Slowly placing the Ancient Cauldron into his robe, Sun Zhe's gaze leisurely swept over the crowd once more. Yet, an increasingly chilling aura emanated from his eyes, and a fierce battle intent began to rise from him.
Zhou Hanbin—he was originally at odds with the Zhou family, and Zhou Hanbin had plotted against him in the Secret Realm's Second Layer; he must die!
Tong Yuan—though he had no enmity with him initially, he pursued Sun Zhe all the way to Thunder Abyss; he must die!
Han Xinrao—his grudge with Sun Zhe is irreconcilable; he too must die!
The members of the Beast Taming Sect—perhaps even if Sun Zhe did not take action, these people would seek him out; they must also die!
Aside from Kuangba from Crimson Thunder Hall not appearing, which surprised Sun Zhe, everyone else's presence was within his expectations and perfectly aligned with his second objective for entering the secret realm's Third Floor.
A glint flashed in his eyes as purple Thunder Power enveloped his entire body. He transformed into a giant of thunder. With a flicker beneath his feet, nine identical "Sun Zhe" figures suddenly materialized around him, following his lead as they dashed forward toward their first target—Tong Yuan!
Tong Yuan was a talented disciple of Aohumen whose qualifications were no less than Aoye's. Although he was defeated by Yan Ji in the Three Sect Competition due to carelessness, instead of falling into despair, he made significant progress in his mindset and cultivation in a short time. His current strength surpassed that of Aohumen's junior master Aoye, reaching the pinnacle of Five Stars Thunder Master.
Although Tong Yuan was blind, his ability to observe the outside world was no less than that of an ordinary person; in fact, it might even exceed it. The moment Sun Zhe charged toward him, Tong Yuan sensed it immediately. His expression shifted slightly as he stepped back quickly. Tong Yuan extended his right hand downward, and a black iron claw appeared instantly on his hand, purple light shimmering on its surface.
"Hmph, this is what you brought upon yourself!"
With a cold shout, Sun Zhe's figure transformed again, moving from in front of Tong Yuan to behind him in an instant. The Long Sword in his right hand glimmered as it sliced through the air, leaving a purple streak as it descended.
Feeling the oppressive Sword Qi behind him, Tong Yuan's face tightened further. He turned his body with all his might and broke through his previous limits. His movements seemed to create a series of illusory shadows as he barely managed to block Sun Zhe's blade with the iron claw in his right hand. Even so, facing such a ghostly movement technique made Tong Yuan involuntarily break into a cold sweat.
"You think Sun's blade is that simple!" At this moment, Sun Zhe's voice rang out again, his cold tone as chilling and ruthless as the winter wind in the depths of December.
On the Long Sword, Purple Radiance burst forth, revealing a sharp Sword Aura. The black iron claws that had been resisting the blade slowly retreated under the terrifying Sword Aura, revealing fine cracks that appeared one after another.
"Die!"
Sun Zhe's gaze turned icy as he gripped the knife tightly. The force of his strike suddenly intensified as he swung down, shattering the iron claws, decapitating his opponent. Scarlet blood sprayed everywhere, staining the shattered tiles and dirt.
Shock!
Aohumen's Tong Yuan had followed in Aoye's footsteps, having fallen to the underworld in just a few moves. This also marked the demise of the last disciple sent by Aohumen into the Northern Mang Secret Realm. All ten elite disciples of Aohumen had been wiped out, an unprecedented occurrence since the opening of the Northern Mang Secret Realm. Yet, the culprit behind all this showed no sign of changing color in response to it.
With his right hand tightly gripping the Black Long Knife, unconcerned about the blood dripping from its blade, Sun Zhe turned his body and stepped toward Zhou Hanbin, his next target—Zhou Hanbin.
"Everyone work together to deal with this killing demon! If we let him take us out one by one, no one will be able to stand against him... And that Ancient Cauldron is in his hands; whoever kills him will claim it..." As he watched Sun Zhe approach him, fear flickered in Zhou Hanbin's eyes. His true strength was not much different from Aoye's; now witnessing Aoye and Tong Yuan fall one after another at Sun Zhe's hands was a significant blow to him. The pride he held in his heart vanished without a trace, and he immediately shouted to everyone.
Faced with Sun Zhe's overwhelming strength, everyone could see it clearly. Undoubtedly, Sun Zhe's power had surpassed that of ordinary talents. If possible, no one would want to offend such a figure, but some matters had already left them with no choice.
"Sun Zhe, come and take your life!"
As soon as Zhou Hanbin finished speaking, three figures flashed out from the side—two men and one woman—who were Zheng Da and Zheng Er from Beast Taming Sect and Han Xinrao from Yin Lei Sect. They were among those who hated Sun Zhe the most. It wasn't that they were too slow to act; rather, Sun Zhe was too fast. From his strike to killing Tong Yuan was almost instantaneous, so quick that they barely had time to react.
"Sun Zhe, hand over that Ancient Cauldron!"
A cold and arrogant voice came from two directions. At this moment, the Beast Taming Sect and Yin Yang Two Sects—who had always been at odds—actually chose to temporarily set aside their past grievances and attacked Sun Zhe simultaneously.
Wu's strength was astonishingly remarkable, on par with Yan Ji; he was nearly the strongest among the younger generation of Beast Taming Sect. With a swing of his right hand holding a long sword, numerous Purple Sword rays suddenly appeared in midair. Although they were not made up of true Thunder Power, the combined force of hundreds of them unleashed power that was no less than that of Thunder Power's Sword Aura.
The man and woman from the Beast Taming Sect did not follow Wu forward; instead, they remained still while simultaneously forming hand seals. Dozens of strange seals quickly flew from their hands, dancing like butterflies in a chaotic display. As the seals were released, a black hole suddenly appeared above their heads, emanating a terrifying aura.
"Roar..."
"Roar..."
Two thunderous roars echoed as two massive black figures surged out from the black hole. These were the innate beasts of the man and woman, and under their command, the two Killing Intent beasts howled as they charged towards Sun Zhe, their eyes filled with a fierce and cruel glint.
Meanwhile, the two members of the Yang Lei Sect were not slow to act either. Each wielding a long sword, Song Gang led the charge with the other two following closely behind. Despite their rapid advance, their formation remained perfectly intact, with no change in angle. Within this formation, their combined momentum seemed to fuse into one, unleashing an aura that rivaled that of a Thunder Lord Level expert.
The three long swords sliced forward simultaneously, but what emerged was merely a Sword Aura. However, this Sword Aura's power far exceeded the limits that a Thunder Master Level Cultivator could unleash, descending directly towards Sun Zhe's head.
"Haha... In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless," Sun Zhe said coldly. Faced with the joint attack of the Six Sects elites, there was no trace of fear on his face; instead, his eyes sparkled with unprecedented excitement. A fierce battle intent surged within him, and his imposing aura shot up into the sky. Seven purple light points suddenly materialized in his left eye, and an explosive purple radiance enveloped his entire body.
The Purple Radiance surged, and Thunder Might shook the ground as an aura approaching that of a Thunder Sovereign Level erupted from Sun Zhe!
Dressed in flowing white robes, Sun Zhe stood with his sword drawn. To everyone else’s eyes, he appeared as a Thunder War God brimming with battle intent.
