CHAPTER 48: CHAPTER 48: COUNTERATTACK—A LONE ASSAULT ON THE DYNASTY

Breaking the void, this is the skill only a Martial Emperor possesses.

Cloud Elephant was stuck at the Celestial Tier Martial Venerable for several hundred years and couldn’t find any opportunity to break through.

If it were said that the Martial Emperor who came was Xia Feng, he wouldn’t believe it even if beaten to death!

Although the previous news about Xia Feng being a Martial King was inaccurate, how could an Earth Tier Martial Venerable suddenly become a Martial Emperor in three days?

Even in dreams, one wouldn’t dare to think so!

"Didn’t you just vow to kill me? Now that I’m here, why don’t you make a move?" Xia Feng said with a smile.

"Senior, please don’t joke with me..." Cloud Elephant rubbed his hands with an awkward smile, "I don’t know who exactly you are, could it be that Xia Feng is your direct disciple?"

"Then you should have said earlier, why bring the Ten Top Grade Saintesses along all the way here."

"After reflecting on this matter, I realize the practice of the Cloud Elephant Sect was indeed somewhat lacking. I am willing to apologize to you and compensate you and your disciple Xia Feng."

Cloud Elephant is not a fool; he is a very smart cultivator.

Previously, after receiving substantial benefits from the Five Great Saint Children of the Northern Border, he pretended to be enraged and immediately sent the Vice Sect Leader and half of the sect’s high-level power to eliminate Xia Feng.

In truth, he was mostly working for the Five Great Saint Children.

Although Cloud Mountain was his brother, it wasn’t worth offending the Saintesses of the Five Top Grade Sacred Lands for such an incompetent and arrogant fool!

He was also confused; given the favor the Saintesses showed Xia Feng, his backing must be far beyond imagination!

When this Martial Emperor came knocking, he finally figured it all out.

The Five Great Saint Sons likely couldn’t discern Xia Feng’s reality either, so they used him as their test subject!

Damnit, thinking of this made the venomous expression in Cloud Elephant’s eyes grow more intense.

"You’re overthinking it; how could I be my own master?" Xia Feng looked at the fawning Cloud Elephant, feeling a bit emotional.

Previously, the Cloud Mountain Sect was already a colossal presence in his world; he never expected that in less than a month, even the Top Grade Sect that was above Cloud Mountain Sect had to obediently submit to him.

But Xia Feng didn’t come here to accept apologies.

"The people you sent nearly killed me." Xia Feng slowly descended, with the Ten Top Grade Saintesses following closely.

"Your brother Cloud Mountain ambushed me halfway, if it weren’t for..." Xia Feng looked back, unsure how to address her.

Calling her Saintess seemed too distant, which would definitely cause anger; calling her wife was too much, a leap he couldn’t make.

"If it weren’t for us wives arriving in time, you would have succeeded!" The main wife, Sun Yazhu, coldly snorted as she stepped forward, seemingly aware of Xia Feng’s thoughts, and spoke ahead.

"That’s right, your Cloud Elephant Sect is really impressive, daring to touch my Zhao Lingxuan’s man!" Li Huo Saintess Zhao Lingxuan said angrily.

"Indeed..."

"That’s right..."

"So, I’m not here to negotiate with you." Xia Feng nodded, looking coldly at Cloud Elephant.

On that day, the people present also included his parents and a group of Xia Family members. If the Ten Saintesses hadn’t come, the Xia Family would have been annihilated!

This is a life-and-death feud, it will not end peacefully!

"You...you can’t be Xia Feng; he’s merely an Earth Tier Martial Venerable. How could he break through to Martial Emperor cultivation in three days? Senior, please stop teasing me..."

Cloud Elephant swallowed hard; he couldn’t comprehend this, really couldn’t.

If a Martial Venerable could so easily cross a small realm, a great realm to break through, then why would he be stuck at this bottleneck for hundreds of years?

"Teasing?" Xia Feng shook his head, a glint of cold light in his eyes, "Believe it or not, I came here for revenge. None of you in the Cloud Elephant Sect will escape today!"

With that said, a shadow instantly appeared on the ground as spiritual power gathered under Xia Feng’s feet, and the Nether Dream Spirit Walk was immediately deployed.

"No, Senior I..."

Cloud Elephant’s pupils shrunk sharply; he wanted to negotiate further, but Xia Feng had already appeared in front of him, delivering two palms!

The Cloud Mountain Sect’s sect-guarding ultimate skill, Cloud Mountain Hand!

The massive hand formed by clouds materialized with overwhelming momentum, tens of times more terrifying than when Cloud Mountain used it that day!

"Ah!"

"Pfft!"

The two Elders standing beside Cloud Elephant, currently the strongest two Earth Tier Ninth Layer Martial Venerables under the Cloud Mountain Hand, were instantly sent flying by Xia Feng.

They spewed blood, their bodies smashed by the violent Cloud Mountain Hand. Their True Spirits, just emerging, were also shredded by the fierce wind!

Everyone in the Cloud Elephant Sect, whether elder or disciple, felt immense fear rise in their hearts.

Is this the power of a Martial Emperor?

Casually killing Earth Tier Ninth Layer Martial Venerables with two palms as if slaughtering chickens and dogs.

"Cloud Mountain Hand, you...really are Xia Feng?!"

Cloud Elephant’s pupils revealed a look of horror.

The Cloud Mountain Sect was exterminated by the Tyrannical Saintess, leaving behind countless martial techniques. Xia Feng, who had not been in cultivation for a long time, wouldn’t be learned by anyone else other than him!

Truly established Martial Emperors wouldn’t run to a Middle Grade Sect to learn their martial techniques, even a Top Grade Sect like the Cloud Elephant Sect doesn’t have the qualification!

So, breaking through from a Low Tier Martial Venerable to a Martial Emperor in three days, this was real!

"Damn it, what right do you have, how can you cultivate to Martial Emperor so quickly!"

Cloud Elephant’s face twisted, his heart filled with endless jealousy. He used countless methods for hundreds of years, but never crossed that gap to break through to Martial Emperor.

And this man before him took only three days to break through so effortlessly.

This contrast almost made him go mad.

"Is there any point in asking so many questions? Besides, you’re about to die." Xia Feng said expressionlessly.

"You..." Cloud Elephant was enraged, though his strength was at the top among Celestial Tier Ninth Layer Martial Venerables, facing a Martial Emperor, even one at the initial Yellow Tier First Layer, he stood no chance.

"I got it, you must have used some secret technique to forcibly enhance your cultivation, that’s the only reasonable explanation!" A spark of understanding flashed in Cloud Elephant’s mind, suddenly as if he figured something out, he joyfully said.

"In reality, your true realm is at most Celestial Tier First Layer Martial Venerable, your strength can’t possibly be that of a Martial Emperor, everything is just a blinding technique!"

Cloud Elephant increasingly felt that his guess was correct, he sneered, "Relying on the Ten Top Grade Saintesses, you seem to have mastered quite a few cultivation secret techniques, but do you think pulling a big flag over will scare me?!"

"Paradise has a path you don’t take, Hell is doorless yet you choose to enter, Xia Feng, today I’ll show you what it means to have no return!"

"Why don’t you try to find out if it’s as you think?" Xia Feng sneered.

"Die, you cunning little bastard!"

Without further ado, Cloud Elephant’s aura exploded in an instant, charging towards Xia Feng like a cannonball!
