CHAPTER 83: CHAPTER 83: UTTER ANNIHILATION

Fortunately, Yang Sanye doesn’t have that much wealth; he can only summon three First Awakening Pets. Two of them go to block Chen Guan, while he rides a Ghost-headed Horse to try to escape.

Without Primordial Energy to use Secret Skills, he wouldn’t dare to use his body to withstand Chen Guan’s Profound Nether Yin Fire Palm, even if he were a Second Awakening. Such a Secret Skill can’t be faced head-on.

Yang Sanye was terrified, not daring to speculate whether Chen Guan could still use the Profound Nether Yin Fire Palm.

Bang! Bang!

Chen Guan’s figure moved like a ghost past Yang Sanye’s two pets, simultaneously imprinting each hand with a Blood Hand Seal, directly blasting their heads on the spot. As he landed, the Adorable Rabbit had already arrived beneath him, and Chen Guan rode on the neck of the Adorable Rabbit.

This bizarre scene made Yang Sanye’s scalp tingle.

A giant Evil Adorable Rabbit walked upright, holding a Pig-killing Saber, baring teeth and charging with a bloodthirsty mouth at incredible speed.

And on the neck of that Evil Adorable Rabbit rode a person, who, although not looking particularly fierce at first glance, seemed harmless. But in Yang Sanye’s eyes, he was scarier than an evil ghost, and Yang Sanye was already scared witless.

Yang Sanye desperately urged his Ghost-headed Horse, but the horse’s speed couldn’t possibly surpass the Evil Adorable Rabbit. Not far had been covered before the rabbit jumped, its enormous body leapt over Yang Sanye’s head, landed heavily on the mountain path ahead, and turned to face the charging Ghost-headed Horse.

Yang Sanye was horrified and desperately tried to stop the horse, but it was too late; the horse charged towards Chen Guan and the Adorable Rabbit due to inertia.

The Adorable Rabbit’s mouth almost widened to its ears, laughing like an evil ghost, raising the Pig-killing Saber high, and chopping towards the Ghost-headed Horse’s head.

Chen Guan then leapt up; his body was like a ghostly shadow, his palms blood-red, seemingly dropping fresh blood, and struck towards the top of Yang Sanye’s head.

"Senluo Ghost Step... and that Palm Technique Secret Skill... this guy has been using various Secret Skills from the beginning... How could he have so much Primordial Energy... Is he really a First Awakening Cultivator..." Yang Sanye trembled internally but unwillingly resigned himself, shouted, and reached out to grab Chen Guan’s arm.

Even though he can no longer use Primordial Energy and Secret Skills, his Second Awakening strength and speed remain, and opposing a Blood Hand Seal is doable without much trouble.

Unless Chen Guan uses the Profound Nether Yin Fire Palm again, a Secret Skill with massive Primordial Energy consumption and immense power, he poses little threat to Yang Sanye.

But just as Yang Sanye was about to face the Blood Hand Seal head-on, Chen Guan’s figure twisted mid-air, with a waist turn and grip, pulling out a cold gleam from his waist, smoothly slashing with abdominal twist power.

At such a close distance and not expecting Chen Guan to have a sword at his waist, Yang Sanye couldn’t dodge and got his throat slashed by Chen Guan’s sword.

Chen Guan brushed past Yang Sanye; the Adorable Rabbit, with a single slash, split the Ghost-headed Horse in two, rushing through the middle.

When Chen Guan landed, he landed right on the shoulder of the Adorable Rabbit.

Behind them, the Ghost-headed Horse, severed in two, fell and lay dead, while Yang Sanye fell to the ground, clutching his throat, unable to stop the blood gushing from between his fingers.

Duan Shulin stood not far away, eyes wide, mouth agape, not reacting as if petrified.

Chen Guan, however, paid no attention, jumping off the rabbit and standing slightly away, letting the rabbit go and finish the job.

The Adorable Rabbit, holding its saber, hacked fiercely at Yang Sanye’s throat.

You could say that the bones of a Second Awakening Cultivator are hard; the rabbit swung the saber three times before managing to chop off Yang Sanye’s head, which rolled aside.

Originally snow-white, the Adorable Rabbit’s fur was now covered in splattered blood, almost seeming to turn into a blood-colored rabbit.

Duan Shulin felt a chill inside, his chest churning, and after holding back, he couldn’t help but vomit on the spot.

Chen Guan showed no reaction, directly touching Yang Sanye’s headless corpse and retrieving the Secret Treasures from his body.

Yang Sanye had quite a few good items, one being a unique Second Awakening Secret Treasure Dagger, although it looked barely used, clearly he had lived a contented life under Reincarnation City’s protection, not needing to hunt Secret Spirits himself, rarely using it.

The clothes were also a Second Awakening Secret Treasure, albeit rare in quality, along with various elixirs. What most surprised Chen Guan was that Yang Sanye had more than ten Secret Spirit Eggs.

Presumably, these Secret Spirit Eggs were snatched from ordinary cultivators.

Most cultivators, knowing Yang Sanye’s identity, wouldn’t dare take action even if they were more capable; they’d have to obediently hand over the Secret Spirit Eggs.

"Brother Guan, you’re truly amazing; in my lifetime, I’ve never seen a First Awakening Cultivator as strong as you, casually killing a Second Awakening Cultivator along with two Second Awakening Pets. That’s truly formidable." Duan Shulin praised, unabashed.

"You’re not bad." Chen Guan kicked Yang Sanye’s corpse off the mountain path, sending it rolling into the valley.

"Why not burn it completely, to prevent people from Reincarnation City finding anything?" Duan Shulin suggested.

"Starting a fire here would surely attract the attention of Reincarnation City, proving counterproductive. Now, we must have time to escape from Ghost King Mountain Range. If my guess is correct, the routes out of Ghost King Mountain Range are likely sealed by Reincarnation City." Chen Guan turned and walked.

Duan Shulin looked serious: "Reincarnation City should be betting everything on Ghost King Mountain Range, betting that the Secret God’s child is within. They won’t allow any Secret Spirit Egg inside Ghost King Mountain Range to escape. Wanting to leave with them seems impossible."

"Could you somehow contact Ji Nanhong? If she can lead the Celestial Court Army to support from outside, perhaps we can break through." Duan Shulin pondered.

"Can’t reach her; I only have her phone number, no signal here." Chen Guan replied.

"Then we’re doomed." Duan Shulin sighed, "Sadly, my family can’t contact any helpers in this Secret Realm. Looks like we’ll have to find a place to bury the Secret Spirit Eggs and come back for them later."

"No use; if Reincarnation City decides to blockade Ghost King Mountain Range, they’ll surely find a way to uncover the Secret Spirit Eggs here. Until the Secret God’s child emerges, they won’t give up." Chen Guan shook his head.

"What should we do then, really hand them over?" Duan Shulin asked, looking at Chen Guan, as only he had the Secret Spirit Eggs, and it was up to him to decide.

"I fear handing them over would be pointless. We’ve killed Yang Sanye; Reincarnation City will find out and certainly won’t let us go." Chen Guan said while walking.

"What then?" Duan Shulin felt lost.

"There’s still a way; although I can’t contact Ji Nanhong, I can reach out to someone else." Chen Guan drew out the Echoing Jade from a box within his satchel, restoring it before hanging around his neck.
