Chapter 9 - Breaking the Siege Alone

Su Wuchen didn't dare to stop, continuing forward.

\n\nHalf an hour later.

He suddenly stopped, as if sensing something.

\n\nCrack!

A terrifying beast suddenly leaped out from a hidden spot ahead.

It was over ten feet tall, resembling a giant gorilla. When it opened its mouth, it revealed sharp, terrifying fangs. Its eyes glowed red as it glared at Su Wuchen, constantly pounding its chest in a display of aggression, appearing incredibly fierce.

Su Wuchen was taken aback: "A Rank 2 beast, the Black Sky Gorilla!"

Like humans, beasts could also cultivate.

There are also different realms.

The realms of demonic beasts are divided into nine ranks.

Each rank is also divided into ten layers.

From low to high, they correspond to each realm of human martial artists.

The Black Sky Gorilla in front of him was a Rank 2, Layer 6 demonic beast.

But Su Wuchen wasn't alarmed.

If he had a sword in hand, his strength was comparable to a Blood Essence Realm, Layer 10 expert.

Even without a sword, he was confident he could kill a Blood Essence Realm, Layer 8 expert.

So, for him, the Black Sky Gorilla in front of him wasn't something to be feared.

"Roar!"

The Black Sky Gorilla beat its chest and roared, then immediately charged at Su Wuchen.

"Beast, you're courting death!"

Su Wuchen snorted coldly.

Just as the Black Sky Gorilla was about to reach him, within three meters…

He suddenly extended his right hand and flicked his finger towards the Black Sky Gorilla's head.

A wisp of sharp sword qi shot out from his fingertip, piercing towards the Black Sky Gorilla.

The sword qi struck the Black Sky Gorilla's right eye with perfect accuracy!

"Arooo!"

The Black Sky Gorilla stopped abruptly.

It roared, covering its bleeding right eye in a rage.

Su Wuchen seized the opportunity and immediately charged towards the Black Sky Gorilla.

He leaped into the air and threw a punch.

The fierce fist, carrying terrifying power, slammed down onto the Black Sky Gorilla's head.

Boom!

The Black Sky Gorilla's head instantly burst open.

Its skull shattered.

Blood gushed out from its head.

Its massive body crashed to the ground, and it slowly stopped breathing.

This Black Sky Gorilla is quite strong, and it should have a lot of power stored within it. I'll see if I can absorb its power and use it for myself...

With this thought, Su Wuchen began to circulate the Chaos Overlord Technique.

Then.

The Chaos Divine Cauldron within him trembled slightly.

Right after that.

His body once again generated a terrifying force of absorption, starting to devour the Black Sky Gorilla's power.

Su Wuchen was overjoyed: "Indeed, I can also absorb the power of demon beasts!"

Under the absorption of the Chaos Divine Cauldron, the Black Sky Gorilla's power continuously diminished.

Finally, its power was completely devoured, and its corpse turned to ash, scattering in the wind.

After absorbing the Black Sky Gorilla's power, the Chaos Divine Cauldron within Su Wuchen's body immediately overflowed a few drops of liquid, dripping into his dantian.

In a short while.

He felt that the power within his body had become more robust, and his injuries had also recovered somewhat.

"I didn't expect that after devouring the Black Sky Gorilla's power, not only would my strength increase, but my injuries would also heal a bit. Looks like I'll need to kill more demonic beasts to fully recover!"

With that thought, Su Wuchen began to act.

A day later.

Beneath a large tree.

Su Wuchen was sitting cross-legged, eyes closed in meditation.

He had slain ten Tier 2, Stage 5 demonic beasts, six Tier 2, Stage 6 demonic beasts, and five Tier 2, Stage 7 demonic beasts.

After consecutively absorbing all the power from these demonic beasts, his cultivation not only broke through to the Blood Essence Realm, Stage 7, but his injuries finally recovered completely.

"I didn't expect absorbing so much power from these demonic beasts would only bring me to the Blood Essence Realm, Stage 7!"

"It seems like this Chaos Overlord Technique is a double-edged sword! If I want to improve my cultivation in the future, the resources I'll need will probably be several times more than others, maybe even more! But with my current strength, if I use the sword, I can completely kill a Blood Essence Realm tenth layer expert!"

Just then!

A figure darted out from the woods.

The newcomer was a middle-aged man.

Su Wuchen naturally recognized this person.

This person was from the Su Clan, named Su Chuming, and he was at the fifth layer of the Blood Essence Realm.

"Su… Su Wuchen, I finally found you!"

Su Chuming held a sword, pointing it at Su Wuchen, and said, both surprised and afraid.

He knew he wasn't a match for Su Wuchen.

So, he immediately lit a Rocket Flare.

Whoosh!

The rocket flare soared into the sky and exploded with a loud bang.

Su Wuchen frowned.

Su Chuming was notifying the others.

His position was exposed!

"Seeking death!"

Su Wuchen instantly charged in front of Su Chuming.

Su Chuming was terrified, collapsing to the ground. He looked at Su Wuchen with fear and said, "Su Wuchen, the young miss and the people from the Su Clan are nearby. If… if you dare to kill me, they won't let you off…"

Su Wuchen laughed. "If I don't kill you, they'll let me off?"

With that, he punched and blew Su Chuming's head apart.

Then, he began to circulate the Chaos Overlord Technique, starting to absorb the power from the latter's body.

Soon, the corpse also turned to ash.

Su Wuchen picked up Su Chuming's sword.

Just as he was about to leave, nearly twenty figures immediately surrounded him from all directions.

Su Wuchen saw that most of them were experts from the Su Clan, each with a Blood Essence Realm cultivation. Among them were the second elder, third elder, fourth elder, and fifth elder of the Su Clan.

The strongest, the second elder, was at the seventh level of the Blood Essence Realm.

But the two lackeys of Lu Shan, Zhang Fan and Liu Ziwen, were the ones with the highest cultivation among the group!

Both of them were at the tenth level of the Blood Essence Realm.

However, Su Wuchen didn't show any panic on his face.

As long as Lu Shan didn't appear, if he wanted to leave, no one could stop him!

Su Wen, the fifth elder of the Su Clan, glared at Su Wuchen and said, "Su Wuchen, you are already seriously injured, like a turtle in a jar, you can't escape! Today, you will pay with your life for the Clan Head and the young master! Die!"

"No one is allowed to attack!" Zhang Fan stepped forward and shouted.

The experts of the Su Clan were startled and stopped in their tracks.

Zhang Fan then looked at Su Wuchen with a sneer, "Kid, I don't need anyone else to kill you. I alone am enough! Watch me break your hands and feet to vent my anger for our boss!"

He moved, charging towards Su Wuchen and striking out with a palm!

"Shadowed Illusion Sword!"

Su Wuchen, holding his sharp sword, instantly vanished from where he stood.

Zhang Fan's palm strike landed on nothing.

"How is this possible!"

When Zhang Fan reacted, a sharp sword qi had already swiftly slashed towards him.

His arm flew off.

"Ah!"

Zhang Fan screamed in agony.

Su Wuchen had already rushed behind Zhang Fan and thrust his sword.

This sword instantly pierced through Zhang Fan's head.

Zhang Fan's body fell to the ground, dead.

Everyone was shocked!

They were curious, wasn't Su Wuchen already injured? Why was he still so strong?

Su Wuchen pointed his sword at the Su Clan members and said, "Although I've left the Su Clan, you all watched me grow up while I was here."

"So, out of consideration for old ties, I don't want to slaughter you all."

"If you retreat now, I can pretend nothing happened."

"But, if you insist on attacking me, you will… die!"

The Su Clan members hesitated, not daring to act rashly.

Liu Ziwen turned to the Su Clan's experts and said, "You Su Clan people are truly spineless!"

"This kid killed your Clan Head and Young Master, and yet so many of you are afraid of him?"

"If your deceased Clan Head and Young Master saw this, they'd be so enraged by you useless trash that they'd come back to life!"

"This kid is just putting on a show!"

"Hurry up and kill him!"

After being provoked by Liu Ziwen, the Su Clan's experts looked grim and filled with righteous indignation.

"That's right, Su Wuchen is definitely at the end of his rope. Let's all attack together and kill this beast, to avenge the family head and young master!"

"Kill!"

After all the Su Clan's experts reached a consensus, they charged towards Su Wuchen with killing intent.

Su Wuchen said coldly, "Since you want to die, I'll grant your wish!"

He instantly activated his Shadowed Illusion Sword, charging towards the Su Clan's experts.

One person, one sword, single-handedly breaking through their attacks!

Soon, the field was filled with heart-wrenching screams.

"Ah…"

"Ah…"

Fifteen minutes later, over a dozen corpses were scattered across the field.

Each corpse was either missing limbs or completely dismembered.

The scene was a river of blood, a gruesome sight!

Su Wuchen's eyes were bloodshot with rage!

All the experts of the Su Clan were dead!

Liu Ziwen watched this scene, his body already trembling with fear.

He had originally planned to use the people of the Su Clan to distract Su Wuchen, and then he would launch a sneak attack on Su Wuchen during the chaos.

But he had miscalculated. Su Wuchen had easily killed all the experts of the Su Clan.

He was terrifyingly strong!

Run!

That was the only thought in his mind at that moment.

But just as he turned to run...

A sword qi flew over, its arrival unknown, instantly severing his legs.

"Ah!"

Liu Ziwen lay on the ground, screaming in agony.

Su Wuchen walked over, sword in hand, his expression cold. "Want to run? Did you ask for my permission?"

Liu Ziwen, his face filled with terror, begged, "Su Wuchen, please... please spare my life!"

Su Wuchen said, "No."

After he finished speaking, he swung his sword.

A sword to the throat!

Liu Ziwen, deceased!
