The Imperial Martial Pill Venerable
Chapter 300 - 299: A Slight Edge
"How is this possible?!"
"My goodness, this Qin Ya is just too powerful."
"Don’t tell me even Brother Ouyang can’t beat him?"
In the distance, Ouyang Hua and the others stared at Ouyang Zhen, who had been kicked to the ground by Qin Ya, their faces filled with disbelief. Ouyang Hua, in particular, was so frightened he was speechless. ’The person I’ve been trying to catch up to all this time was just sent flying with a kick?’
Following the shock came endless jealousy. ’Why is he so strong? Why is his Talent so great? Why am I not the one who has all this!’
It wasn’t just Ouyang Hua and his group; even the few Extraordinary Martial Artists they had called over felt the same. They were all the most outstanding figures of the younger generation from the Three Great Noble Families. Having stepped into the Extraordinary realm while only in their thirties, they could be considered true prodigies!
But seeing Qin Ya today, they finally understood what a true monster was!
For a moment, they were overcome with incredibly complicated feelings.
"Bastard!"
Ouyang Zhen climbed out of the giant crater. The paralysis had faded, but the shame and rage from being kicked away was like a volcano on the verge of erupting—unstoppable. With a furious roar, he abruptly unleashed a wave of Blade Qi!
The Blade Qi was fiery red, radiating such extreme heat that the very air around it seemed to warp. Its power was already enough to crush an ordinary Sky-Controlling Martial Artist.
Yet Qin Ya’s expression remained composed. He abruptly thrust his long spear!
It was a thrust as swift as lightning. The arcs of thunder on the spear’s tip were like a rabid Fierce Beast, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws as it pounced on the Blade Qi. The moment they collided, fire and lightning illuminated half the night sky, drawing the attention of countless people.
Inside the Heaven-Reaching Tower, Lin Liyu was meditating with his eyes closed. Suddenly, they snapped open, and he gazed into the distance. "Thunder... Could that be Young Friend Qin!"
His expression shifted, and his figure vanished in an instant.
Meanwhile, at the Shangguan Family’s estate, several figures were also streaking through the night...
After the Fire Saber and Thunder Spear clashed, Ouyang Zhen suddenly charged forward. With a savage expression, he swung his great black-gold saber at Qin Ya. Qin Ya, in contrast, gave a cold smirk. Without retreating or dodging, he met the attack head-on. Unleashing the Mysterious Speed, his spear moved with an un-trackable velocity, erupting in an instant to overwhelm Ouyang Zhen!
"Such incredible speed!"
Ouyang Zhen’s face fell in alarm. He desperately used his great saber to block and dodge, but it was to no avail. In the space of just a few breaths, Ouyang Zhen had already sustained eighteen wounds and was covered in blood.
"What are you waiting for?! Help me!!"
At Ouyang Zhen’s roar, the other Extraordinary Martial Artists who had come with him finally made their move, surrounding and attacking Qin Ya. In an instant, Sword Light, Fist Force, and Palm Qi enveloped him!
"Hmph!"
With a cold snort, an astonishing amount of Thunder erupted from Qin Ya’s body, mixed with the aura of Destruction. It exploded outward, tearing all their attacks to shreds!
"Damn it, how is he this powerful!"
"With this kind of combat power, there’s no way he’s just a Sky-Controlling Martial Artist."
*Gasp*... Such terrifying Thunder!
The crowd was aghast, but Qin Ya gave them no time to recover. His spear, wreathed in ferocious Thunder, shot toward Ouyang Zhen like a dragon of lightning!
"Get out of the way!!"
"No, I can’t dodge it!"
Ouyang Zhen’s eyes were wide with fury and desperation. His True Essence erupted as he tried to shift aside, but no matter how fast he was, how could he possibly outrun Qin Ya, who had mastered the Mysterious Speed?
Just as the long spear was about to pierce Ouyang Zhen, a furious roar echoed!
"Brat, you dare!" The voice carried a wave of Divine Thought Power that struck Qin Ya’s mind, making his Divine Acupoint tremble. The hand holding his spear faltered for a fraction of a second. That single moment was all Ouyang Zhen needed to escape, and he instantly shot backward.
"An Elder is here."
"Excellent! With an Elder here, Qin Ya is a dead man!"
Hearing this voice, Ouyang Hua and the others showed looks of excitement!
Qin Ya snorted, an ultimate killing intent flaring in his eyes. His True Essence Qi Sea began to churn violently. In an instant, all the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi within a two-thousand-zhang radius surged toward him like a great river flowing into the ocean, condensing into countless Thunder Spears that gathered in the sky above him!
The densely packed Thunder Spears crackled with purple light, radiating a terrifying power. They suddenly plunged downward like a torrential storm, hurtling toward Ouyang Zhen and the other Extraordinary Martial Artists.
"Damn it!"
"He still dares to attack!"
The expressions on Ouyang Zhen and the others changed drastically. Facing the endless barrage of Thunder Spears, they didn’t dare to be careless in the slightest, each unleashing their life-saving techniques. BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! The continuous roar was deafening, and the ground beneath Qin Ya was instantly turned into a ravaged wasteland.
A single Thunder Spear held the power of a full-force strike from an Extraordinary Martial Artist. With several hundred of these spears, it was like being attacked by hundreds of Extraordinary Martial Artists at once. Even with all their techniques on full display, Ouyang Zhen and his group couldn’t even hold on for a single breath.
Just as they were about to be killed, a gray-haired elder appeared before the storm of Thunder Spears. With a cold snort, he took a step forward and thrust his palm down. A majestic wave of Celestial Human Power surged out like the ocean itself, crushing the sea of Thunder Spears in the blink of an eye.
Immediately after, two more elders appeared.
Three elders, three Celestial Humans.
They glanced at Ouyang Zhen and the others, who were already grievously wounded by the Thunder Spears and unable to rise. Their expressions darkened to an extreme degree. They snapped their gazes to Qin Ya, their rage materializing as an immense, world-bending pressure that crushed down upon him!
In that instant, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi around Qin Ya was violently sucked away. An endless pressure, like a mountain range, bore down upon him. Yet, even under this pressure, Qin Ya stood ramrod straight and tightened his grip on his spear, his sharp aura undiminished!
"I’ve faced down a King before. What do the likes of you even count for?!"
His True Essence Qi Sea suddenly began to boil. The tyrannical absorbing power of his Leakless Body erupted at full force. The Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi that the Celestial Humans had drained away began to flow back in, refilling Qin Ya’s True Essence Qi Sea at an unimaginable speed.
BOOM! It was as if some kind of shackle had been shattered.
A brilliant light burst forth from Qin Ya’s eyes, dazzlingly bright in the dark night. Under the pressure of the three Celestial Humans, he had actually broken through his bottleneck!
"What?!"
The expressions of the three Celestial Humans flickered, shock filling their eyes.
Feeling the qualitatively superior True Essence within his body, the corners of Qin Ya’s lips curled upward. His gaze, now as sharp as a razor’s edge, fell upon the three Celestial Humans. "First the young, now the old," he said coldly. "Care for another round?"
Everyone sucked in a sharp breath.
’This madman! He actually dared to openly declare war on Celestial Human Martial Artists!’
"You alone? I’m afraid you wouldn’t even be able to withstand a single palm strike from me."
One of the elders recovered from his shock. With a cold snort, he suddenly swung his palm, and a massive, brilliant gold Palm Seal materialized from thin air, hurtling toward Qin Ya!
This Palm Seal was formed from the pure Celestial Human Power within the elder’s body. He was confident its might was enough to obliterate any Martial Artist beneath the Celestial Human realm!
Qin Ya’s gaze sharpened. He took a deep breath, and all the True Essence in his body erupted without reservation. Fully unleashing his Thunder Mysteries, augmented by the Mysteries of Destruction, he sent a wave of purple, destructive Thunder surging toward the golden Palm Seal. But Qin Ya wasn’t finished. Raising a single hand to the sky, he sent out another palm seal, this one formed from an ice-blue Flame.
The purple Thunder and the golden Palm Seal collided violently. Though powerful, the purple Thunder was still no match for pure Celestial Human Power. The tyrannical arcs of lightning vanished into nothing after a final, unwilling flicker. Immediately after, the relentless golden Palm Seal met the bone-chilling Ice Flame Palm. The golden Palm Seal, already weakened and made illusory by the initial clash with the Thunder, shattered instantly upon contact with the Ice Flame. The Ice Flame, its power barely diminished, continued on, hurtling toward the three Celestial Humans!
In a direct clash with a Celestial Human, Qin Ya had actually come out slightly ahead!
