People are like this; when the blows they suffer come from uncontrollable forces, they automatically spread their anger onto other targets of hatred. This is true for Hu Lue as well.
The downfall of Black Wind Stronghold can be attributed to the will of heaven, but since they cannot seek justice from the heavens, they can only blame Ye Tian, who offended Black Wind Stronghold.
However, Hu Lue is different from Zuo Tiankuang. The latter only hates Ye Tian, while Hu Lue is malicious enough to want to eradicate everyone from the Cold Family.
"You mean Hu Lue wants to target those innocent brothers?" Ye Tian was taken aback. He intended to keep the Brothers out of this matter, but unexpectedly, due to his departure, he had pushed them into a dire situation. If Hu Lue found them, they would undoubtedly face a brutal massacre.
"Innocent? Once they come here, there is no such thing as innocence." Earthshatter Tai Sui did not intend to trouble those people, but he also did not believe that they deserved to live.
Ye Tian remained silent upon hearing this, casting a meaningful glance at Earthshatter Tai Sui before channeling his energy, intending to return to where everyone was camped.
"Want to leave? It's not that easy!" Earthshatter Tai Sui moved abruptly. Without any visible action, a powerful Martial Origin Power radiated outwards, enveloping Ye Tian within several feet.
"Those who block my way will die!" Ye Tian turned back fiercely. If Earthshatter Tai Sui insisted on delaying him from returning to rescue them, then he would have no choice but to kill him.
"Heh heh, do you think that just because you killed that fool Black Maitreya, you can kill me too?" Earthshatter Tai Sui sneered disdainfully. Although Ye Tian's killing of Black Maitreya surprised him, it did not instill fear in him. In other words, in his mind, Ye Tian had not yet reached the level where he could contend with him.
"I'll say it one last time: if you don't step aside, don't blame me for being merciless." Ye Tian's tone grew colder. He did not want to fight Earthshatter Tai Sui simply because the other party still had a loyal heart.
"Bring it on." Earthshatter Tai Sui flicked his sleeve and raised his head with a look of contempt.
"Watch out!"
Ye Tian no longer hesitated. With a sharp cry, his figure flashed like thunder and lightning as he unleashed the Bagua Thunder Palm.
Bang bang bang...
The sound of "Thunder Burst" echoed frequently, and a brilliant light reflected in the pupils of Earthshatter Tai Sui, the color of Bagua Thunder Palm.
"Mountain Splitter Technique!" Earthshatter Tai Sui's pupils constricted slightly, and with a loud shout, his left palm swung out, unleashing a solid Qi Blade that whistled towards Ye Tian's face.
Seeing this, Ye Tian secretly activated his primordial energy, a flash of golden light appeared on him, and the Bagua Pattern manifested in front of him, protecting his vital points.
"Heh heh, mere tricks." Earthshatter Tai Sui sneered, waving his hand again as several Qi Blades surged forth at the same angle towards Ye Tian.
Bang!
With a loud sound, the first Qi Blade struck the Bagua Xuan Yuan Shield, causing the Bagua Pattern to tremble violently. Although it did not break, its brilliance dimmed somewhat.
At that moment, Ye Tian had already closed the distance to less than ten feet from Earthshatter Tai Sui. He understood that the power of this Qi Blade was formidable; the Bagua Xuan Yuan Shield would likely struggle to withstand a second impact.
Boom!
The Thunder Palm collided with the Qi Blade, producing a loud noise followed by an extremely powerful shockwave that threatened to tear their clothes apart.
Whoosh...
As they braced for this strike, two more Qi Blades rushed in and struck the dimmed Bagua Xuan Yuan Shield in an instant.
Ye Tian raised an eyebrow coldly and did not continue to channel primordial energy to reinforce the Bagua Xuan Yuan Shield. Instead, he moved forward aggressively, his expression fierce.
An explosion sound suddenly erupted as the first Qi Blade shattered the defense of the Bagua Xuan Yuan Shield. Immediately after, the second Qi Blade, carrying a sharp offensive force, aimed directly at Ye Tian's head.
A cold smile appeared at the corner of Earthshatter Tai Sui's mouth; in his view, Ye Tian had no chance to evade.
However, his smile did not last long, and in the next moment, it turned into shock. In his gaze, Ye Tian's figure twisted in an exaggerated manner, not only brushing past the Qi Blade but also instantly changing direction to unleash the Bagua Seal Palm.
His fingers darted towards the chest like a venomous snake. Earthshatter Tai Sui's expression changed drastically; he had witnessed the power of this Seal Technique in Ye Tian's hands before, as Black Maitreya Bao Cheng'en had lost his life to it.
"Huh!"
Taking a deep breath, Earthshatter Tai Sui lowered his left hand while pushing upward with his right. As his palms faced each other, a Light Barrier suddenly appeared in front of him.
Bang bang bang bang...
Almost simultaneously, Ye Tian's Seal Technique struck the Light Barrier, producing crisp sounds. Each change of the Seal Technique created ripples on the Light Barrier.
This time, Ye Tianxia's printing speed was not fast; it could even be described as slow. Before he had completed his Nine Seals, Earthshatter Tai Sui had already pushed forward the Light Barrier, crushing towards Ye Tian.
"Come on!" Ye Tian suddenly let out a long howl. His fingers accelerated abruptly, reaching a speed that was difficult to see with the naked eye. He had just completed three seals, but in less than a blink of an eye, the Nine Seals were already finished.
Earthshatter Tai Sui was taken aback, realizing he had fallen into a trap. However, it was too late to react because Ye Tian's lips moved slightly, and the word "break" had already escaped his mouth.
Boom!
A muffled sound suddenly erupted as the Light Barrier shattered. Following that was Ye Tian's Bagua Thunder Palm, which flickered with blue lightning once again.
Earthshatter Tai Sui was horrified and quickly stepped back with a heavy stomp of his right foot. His speed was not slow, but it could not match Ye Tian's.
Ye Tian smirked coldly and then unleashed Yuqi Tayan Jue, shrinking the distance in an instant. The ten-zhang gap closed in the blink of an eye, especially since they were already quite close to each other.
The Yuqi Tayan Jue focused on rapid advancement, making it ideal for pursuit and sudden attacks. With Ye Tian employing it, Earthshatter Tai Sui found no way to evade. Thus, he steeled himself and unleashed Martial Origin Power from his arms, ultimately condensing it into a silver glow in his palm to meet the Bagua Thunder Palm head-on.
Boom!
A deafening sound echoed through the air as silver and blue light erupted from the palms of the two individuals, unleashing an incredibly powerful force that surged outward, stirring up dust in a radius of five zhang around them.
As the dust filled the sky, two figures shot off in opposite directions, trailing yellow dust behind them.
Needless to say, they were Ye Tian and Earthshatter Tai Sui, who had been violently propelled away by each other's immense strength.
Ye Tian found himself unable to control his body, tumbling through the air for over ten zhang before finally landing on the ground. However, he soon felt himself plummeting into an abyss.
In his heart, Ye Tian silently cursed his bad luck. He had just been hit by the powerful recoil of Earthshatter Tai Sui's formidable Martial Origin Power, and in his haste, he was unable to execute Yuqi Tayan Jue. Naturally, he could not use Ling Kong to step back to the ground and was left to free-fall toward the depths of the abyss, where molten lava awaited him. Without any elemental energy to protect him, even with Martial Origin Power, he would likely not survive for long.
"Am I really going to die like this?" Ye Tian thought indignantly. He knew that he had not been at a disadvantage during their clash, but he never expected to end up in this lava pit due to sheer bad luck.
"No way! I can't just die like this!" Ye Tian gritted his teeth and focused on the walls of the abyss.
The abyss was formed by a rift in the earth, so its walls were not smooth; there were many protrusions and ledges where rocks jutted out. Many of these had been broken off by Ye Tian's falling force earlier.
With determination, Ye Tian spotted a rock that was approaching and gathered all his strength to reach for it.
Crack!
Due to the immense downward momentum and the instability of the rock, it shattered upon impact with his grasp. Ye Tian continued to fall toward the bottom of the chasm.
Crack! Crack! Crack...
The sound of rocks breaking echoed continuously. These rocks were particularly brittle from being scorched by the lava and could hardly withstand Ye Tian's weight. Nevertheless, despite this, his descent began to slow down significantly.
"As long as I can hold on for a moment!" Ye Tian felt that the numbness caused by the impact of Earthshatter Tai Sui had significantly improved, and the Elemental Force Cyclone had resumed its vibrating frequency.
Crack!
Another rock was crushed, but after this, Ye Tian used it to flip himself up. With the Spirit Swallow Transformation beneath his feet, he quickly appeared on the ground.
Ye Tian's sudden appearance startled Earthshatter Tai Sui, who was currently covering his palm and peering into the abyss, seemingly confirming whether Ye Tian had fallen to his death.
Ye Tian's gaze shifted to his palm, noticing that it was trembling uncontrollably. Even though he was trying to suppress it, the signs were still very evident.
"That Earthshatter Tai Sui acted too hastily just now. If I had replaced Thunder Palm with Palm Seal, his arm would probably be useless now," Ye Tian thought regretfully.
"You actually didn't die..." Earthshatter Tai Sui exclaimed in surprise. He never expected that after suffering from his overwhelming Martial Origin Power and falling into the abyss, Ye Tian could return safely.
"Sorry to disappoint you," Ye Tian coldly replied, showing his disdain. In fact, if it were any other Ninth-Dan Samurai, that strike would have resulted in either death or severe injury without needing to fall into the abyss. However, Ye Tian possessed Jujutsu, and his physical endurance was not inferior to any Second-Stage Martial Artist. Moreover, Earthshatter Tai Sui was merely a First-Stage Martial Artist.
Upon hearing this, a cold glint flashed in Earthshatter Tai Sui's eyes. As killing intent surged within him, he transformed his hand into a massive Qi Blade. The Qi Blade resembled a Steel Blade but was enormous and gleamed with a dazzling golden hue.
"Kid, come and experience my Earth-Shattering Strike!" Earthshatter Tai Sui unleashed his ultimate technique. This Earth-Shattering Strike was a Yellow Rank Nine Martial Art, precisely what his title was derived from.
Seeing this, Ye Tian did not dare to be careless. With a slight shift of his footsteps, he extended one palm outward, and a Bagua Pattern shimmering with azure light began to swirl in front of his palm.
