Soul Emperor Martial God

Boom…

Xiao Yi's fist appeared almost insignificant before the giant beast claw.

But despite being seemingly small, this fist was steady and powerful.

The giant beast claw descended, easily intercepted by Xiao Yi.

The collision between the two created a thunderous roar.

"Hmm? Impressive."

The group of Heavenly Talents exclaimed in surprise; initially, they predicted that Xiao Yi would be sent flying by the claw.

Just like other Heavenly Talents, instantly severely injured.

Unexpectedly, he blocked the enormous Martial Soul Illusion.

However, the Heavenly Talents' expressions changed the next second.

Because Xiao Yi, who blocked the giant beast claw, now had blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.

"Quick, go." Xiao Yi gritted his teeth and shouted.

"Go where? If we're going, we go together." Tong Ye shouted back, wiping blood from the corner of his mouth as he returned swiftly after being shot away.

"If it's a battle, then we fight together." Qin Yi also wiped blood from the corner of his mouth, transforming into a gust of wind, quickly returning.

"Indeed." The Heavenly Talents halted their retreat, faces brimming with fighting spirit.

Bam…

At this moment, Xiao Yi was struck by the beast claw, sent flying.

Earlier, he could block the beast claw due to the exceptionally strong explosive power of the Boundary Shattering Fist at that moment.

Now that the power of the Boundary Shattering Fist had faded, he couldn't withstand the beast claw.

"A bunch of fools." After stabilizing himself, Xiao Yi's face was pale.

"I can only hold off this creature for a moment; if you don't leave now, you'll all meet your end here."

"Quickly retreat, and cover our exit."

"I'll hold it off for a while, then leave."

"If you don't go now, I'll bolt right away."

The words 'bolt right away' made the faces of the Heavenly Talents twitch.

The giant beast claw once again descended, sending several Heavenly Talents flying, coughing blood.

"Go." Finally, the Heavenly Talents did not stay and urgently retreated.

"Planning to leave?" Sky Tiger sneered.

"Your opponent is me." Xiao Yi also sneered, launching a punch.

The powerful fist again blocked the beast claw.

The other Martial Artists from the Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team, though eager to intervene, couldn't stop them.

These Heavenly Talents wanted to leave; besides Sky Tiger, no one else could prevent them.

However, before leaving, everyone unleashed astonishing Martial Techniques with full force.

"Tianxuan Fire, descend." Tong Ye shouted, then waved his hand.

A massive blaze descended from the sky.

The enormous impact force and scorching heat instantly turned the surroundings to dust, even the ground turning charred black in an instant.

"Illusion Wind, dance." With a move of Qin Yi's fingertips, countless winds arose out of nowhere.

The winds were fierce yet agile, like a swift dance.

The Martial Artists of the Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team were blocked by the winds.

The astonishing Martial Techniques instantly caused the Martial Artists of the Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team significant casualties.

The Heavenly Talents took advantage of the situation to quickly retreat.

In just moments, they flew a thousand miles away.

...

A thousand miles away.

Tong Ye and Qin Yi, along with others, each carrying several severely injured Heavenly Talents, flew rapidly.

"Huh, something's wrong." Tong Ye suddenly realized.

"That guy didn't intend to leave."

"Indeed." Qin Yi's face also changed, "That guy's eyes were brimming with battle fervor; he couldn't possibly bolt."

"Damn, we were deceived."

"Crap, it's a trap."

"Back we go."

"Go."

The faces of the Heavenly Talents turned furious in an instant, urgently heading back.

...

Back to Xiao Yi's side, he glanced at the Heavenly Talents who were far gone, sneering.

"Alright, the battle should end now."

"Indeed, it should end now." Sky Tiger sneered.

"Since you're foolish enough to cover their retreat, then die."

"After you're dead, those dozens of ants won't escape my pursuit."

Xiao Yi's mouth twitched slightly, remaining silent, and acted instantly.

"Boundary Shattering Fist."

Heavy words squeezed through his teeth.

Veins appeared on Xiao Yi's fist.

The previous two Boundary Shattering Fists were merely used casually.

This time, his body consumed 400 drops of Asura Power instantly.

The fist, radiating fierce destructive aura, launched a blow.

Sky Tiger's pupils contracted; before he could react, the massive Martial Soul Illusion was punched away.

Boom…

Under the destructive fist, the Martial Soul Illusion instantly dissipated.

As the Martial Soul Illusion shattered, Sky Tiger suffered backlash, his face turning pale.

After Xiao Yi launched the punch, he didn't stop, instead commencing with an attacking momentum.

"Even if the Martial Soul Illusion is broken, you're no match for me." Sky Tiger arrogantly smiled.

Just as he was about to punch, he found a Cold White Sword Light swiftly coming at him.

Clang…

The Cold White Sword Light streaked past, as quick as lightning.

Sky Tiger's fist instantly spewed blood.

The Sword Edge passed over his fist, piercing his throat directly.

Sizzle…

The Sword Edge easily broke through his Protective Primordial Power, stabbing into his throat.

"How… how is it possible…"

Sky Tiger clutched at the blood gushing from his throat, face terrified.

His arrogant eyes stared at Xiao Yi's Cold White Sword.

"Mid… mid-grade holy artifact…"

"You… you were pretending all along…"

Before Sky Tiger could finish his words, his body collapsed, becoming a cold corpse.

Xiao Yi sneered, retrieving the Cold Flame Sword.

Although he had defeated Sky Tiger, his face was as pale as paper.

Now that it was not evening, the starlight was dim, reducing the power of Star Illusion Swordsmanship greatly.

Firstly, he forced the destruction of Sky Tiger's Martial Soul Illusion using all the Asura Power from his body.

Then, mobilizing all the Primordial Power within himself and leveraging the power of the mid-grade holy artifact Cold Flame Sword, he managed to kill Sky Tiger in one fell swoop.

The dazzling sword strike earlier was nearly all of his battle strength.

If not for catching Sky Tiger off guard or missing the strike, he would be in grave danger.

In essence, there was still a massive gap between him and the Saint Realm.

Xiao Yi shook his head, not thinking much, his cold gaze sweeping over the remaining Martial Artists of the Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team.

Having nearly no battle strength left, he still had enough Primordial Power to escape.

But just at this moment, the Heavenly Talents returned.

When they saw Sky Tiger's corpse, they gasped in shock.

"Is this guy a monster?"

All the surprised eyes focused on Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi shook his head, "The rest is up to you."

"All right." Tong Ye and others nodded, instantly springing into action.

Without Sky Tiger, these regular Martial Artists faced slaughter at the hands of Qin Yi and others.

Within just ten minutes, the originally formidable Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team, nearly seven hundred Martial Artists, perished.

The vast Demon Beast Forest showed signs of battle devastation, a chaotic sight.

The ground covered with bodies testified to the intensity of the fight.

Xiao Yi steadied the weakness within his body, walking slowly towards Sky Tiger's corpse.

After some searching, he found several Universe Rings.

Perceiving them briefly, Xiao Yi's eyes gleamed.

If his guess was correct, the entire wealth of the Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team was in these Universe Rings.

"Sky Tiger's spoils are mine, any objections?" Xiao Yi asked in a deep voice.

The Heavenly Talents shrugged, "You killed the man; naturally, the things are yours."

...

Second update.
