Wu Shattered Star River

No sooner said than done!

From the moment Jiang Han drew his saber to the instant the thirty-foot phantom materialized, and then to when the thirty-foot phantom swung its saber at Ning Xie, it all happened in the blink of an eye.

The crowd only felt Jiang Han unleash a saber strike, and then a thirty-foot tall phantom appeared before Ning Xie, its massive war blade already bearing down on Ning Xie with immense force.

This thirty-foot tall phantom was too fast, so fast that Ning Xie didn't even have time to react before the black phantom, with its overwhelming momentum, cleaved down at him.

"Rumble, rumble, rumble!"

Accompanying the downward slash of the war blade, inexplicable spatial pressure howled in from all directions.

In that instant, Ning Xie felt as if his body was being crushed by a colossal mountain, rendering him completely unable to retreat or evade.

"Ha!"

Worthy of being ranked ninth on the Azure Province New Talent List, Ning Xie roared in this critical moment, his golden spear trembling, as a gigantic golden dragon roared forth.

Simultaneously, his body radiated a dazzling golden light, and a massive, shimmering golden shield materialized before him.

"Boom!"

The thirty-foot tall phantom, wielding its war blade, collided heavily with the golden dragon, causing something shocking to happen to Ye Luo and the others.

The golden dragon was actually cleaved apart by the war blade phantom in a single strike, and the war blade continued its relentless advance, striking Ning Xie's condensed golden shield.

The golden shield was also easily shattered by the war blade, but the war blade's aura was noticeably weakened. Finally, the war blade struck Ning Xie's golden armor with tremendous force.

"Bang!"

Ning Xie's body was sent flying like a tattered sack, and the speed at which he flew backward was astonishing. As soon as the muffled explosion sounded, Ning Xie had already been blasted thousands of feet away.

After this strike, the thirty-foot tall phantom slowly dissipated.

"Pfft ~"

While still in mid-air, Ning Xie continuously spat out blood, scattering it along the way. His complexion turned deathly pale, and the aura around him rapidly weakened, resembling a person on their deathbed…

Gazing at Ning Xie, who had become a small black dot, everyone was dumbfounded. What kind of killer move was that?

Ning Xie, facing it head-on, was actually blasted thousands of feet away in one move? And he was struck so miserably?

"Manslaughter! This is Manslaughter!"

Ye Luo exclaimed, a hint of fear on his face. As the young master of the Eternal Night Palace, he had been fortunate enough to witness a combat recording of Lan Lin fighting five opponents single-handedly, and he recognized this as Manslaughter.

The Seven Styles of the God of Slaughter: Heaven Slaughter ranked first, Manslaughter ranked third. The further down the list, the greater the power, with God Slaughter being the most powerful.

It wouldn't matter if Jiang Han comprehended Heaven Slaughter, but he actually comprehended Manslaughter as well!

"Ning Xie, die!"

Jiang Han roared, his body transforming into a breeze, disappearing from his original location, seemingly to pursue and kill Ning Xie.

A group of Celestial Realm cultivators were stunned by Manslaughter. Even Si Li and Chunyu Ling, Chunyu Xi, and others had stopped fighting just now, their gazes following Ning Xie's direction into the distance.

It was only after Jiang Han released the Wind Escape Technique and disappeared that everyone awakened.

The two Celestial Realm cultivators who accompanied Ning Xie revealed expressions of shock and pursued Ning Xie's direction at full speed, intending to protect him.

"That's not right—"

A gray-haired elder of the Eternal Night Palace shouted, sensing spatial fluctuations.

Jiang Han did not stealthily fly in the direction of Ning Xie, but instead floated in the opposite direction.

This gray-haired elder assumed that Jiang Han was trying to escape, and without hesitation, he flashed and transformed into a streak of white light, chasing towards the north, raising his hand to unleash a palm strike to force Jiang Han out.

"Buzz ~"

Jiang Han's figure materialized, and he spun around, swinging his war blade at the pursuing gray-haired elder.

"Buzz ~"

Ten thousand feet of black light blazed on the war blade, instantly coalescing, and a thirty-foot tall phantom of Jiang Han appeared once again, transforming into an afterimage as it swung the war blade at the gray-haired elder.

"Bang!"

This gray-haired elder's combat power was far inferior to Ning Xie's. When the thirty-foot tall phantom cleaved down, the pressure of the heavens and earth descended.

The gray-haired elder was completely immobilized, able only to watch helplessly as the war blade cleaved down at him.

"Boom!"

At the critical moment of life and death, the gray-haired elder merely released a Heavenly-rank defensive barrier, while a suit of armor materialized outside his body.

The barrier was torn apart upon contact, followed by his armor being cleaved open, and finally, his body was sent flying.

"Ah—"

A miserable scream rang out, and everyone saw that the gray-haired elder, like Ning Xie, was instantly blasted thousands of feet away.

A deep saber wound appeared on the gray-haired elder's chest, and a quick glance revealed the glint of white bone.

Most importantly, the aura around the gray-haired elder was rapidly weakening, as if this strike had extinguished his life force.

"Buzz ~"

After unleashing a strike, Jiang Han's figure disappeared once again, drifting towards the west side of Black Shark Island.

This time, Ye Luo and the others did not pursue. The remaining Celestial Realm cultivators looked at each other, their eyes filled with fear and panic, somewhat at a loss.

Heaven Slaughter had annihilated Lü Heng in one move, and the power of Manslaughter was clearly even more terrifying than Heaven Slaughter.

Everyone had felt the pressure of the heavens and earth just now. The release of Manslaughter was accompanied by the descent of the pressure of the heavens and earth, rendering people unable to move, able only to withstand this terrifying strike head-on.

They were not Ning Xie, they did not possess such powerful combat strength, nor top-tier armor. None of them had the confidence to withstand that terrifying strike.

"Huff, huff!"

Jiang Han's figure appeared on the ground of the island. His body swayed slightly, and he gasped for breath, his complexion turning extremely pale.

Releasing Manslaughter twice in a row had greatly depleted his essence, energy, and spirit.

His realm, physical body, and soul were still too weak. Being able to release Manslaughter was already impressive, let alone releasing it twice in a row.

He had already expended a great deal of his soul power from releasing Heaven Slaughter several times in a row just now, and now he felt somewhat unable to continue. If he wasn't gritting his teeth and holding on, he was afraid that he wouldn't even be able to stand.

"Jiang Han can't hold on anymore!"

Ye Luo glanced at Jiang Han from afar, and seeing Jiang Han's swaying figure, he soared into the sky.

He shouted loudly at the Celestial Realm cultivators behind Jiang Ya, as well as the Celestial Realm cultivators beside Lü Jian in the distance: "Everyone, attack together! We must not let Jiang Han escape today, or the consequences will be endless."

……

Heavenly Chaos City, City Lord's Mansion!

"Hmm?"

Lan Lin, who was sitting in meditation, opened his eyes, his gaze turned towards the north. Just now, he had sensed that a Warrior Medal had been crushed.

"Is it Jiang Han?"

He sensed that the crushed Warrior Medal was a relatively long distance away in the north. Jiang Han was currently on Black Shark Island in the north, so it must undoubtedly be him.

"Shua!"

Just as Lan Lin was surprised and suspicious, a black-robed figure flashed and appeared before Lan Lin.

He knelt on one knee and reported: "City Lord, we have just received news that Chunyu Yan, Ning Xie, Ye Luo, and Lü Jian, a total of fifteen Celestial Realm cultivators, are surrounding and killing Jiang Han on Black Shark Island!"

"What?"

Lan Lin stood up abruptly, a rolling killing intent emanating from his body.

Lan Lin, who had always been a gentle and refined scholar, had transformed into a sharp and exposed killing general at this moment.

"Buzz ~"

At this moment, a teleportation array in the City Lord's Mansion lit up, followed by the appearance of a hunchbacked old man with a crane-shaped cane.

He Ming had teleported back from the Divine Ruins Palace!

He Ming paused for a moment, then his body floated up like a ghost, flying to Lan Lin's side.

His gaze was scorching, and his face was filled with excitement as he reported: "City Lord, it has been confirmed that Jiang Han is that person's… son!"

"As expected!"

A look of understanding appeared on Lan Lin's face, but then his expression sank, and he let out a thunderous roar: "All the Great Commanders in the city who are not in seclusion, get over here now!"

"Shua shua shua ~"

Lan Lin's roar made Heavenly Chaos City seem like a sudden thunderclap had risen from flat ground. More than a dozen black shadows immediately soared from individual courtyards, quickly flying towards the City Lord's Mansion.

Gu Qingtian and the other thirteen Void Realm cultivators arrived at the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion almost instantaneously.

The dozen or so people saw the murderous Lan Lin, and their hearts inexplicably chilled. All of them knelt on one knee and shouted deeply: "City Lord, what are your orders?"

Lan Lin's gaze was icy to the extreme, and he pointed north with his hand like a sword, roaring: "He Ming, you take them to Black Shark Island immediately and bring Jiang Han back. Whoever dares to stop you, even the Heavenly King himself, you shall slay!"
