Beholding those indifferent eyes, Zhuhao's mind was flooded with painful memories, and the anger in his chest threatened to overflow. However, this anger strangely sharpened Zhuhao's mind, as countless attack strategies played out in his thoughts. Zhuhao's blood surged, his heart beating powerfully, and the flow of his spiritual energy was exceptionally smooth. He felt that his condition had never been better.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAvNYFZvprDV
For no apparent reason, a phrase from the sect master flashed through Zhuhao's mind: "Your path to the Golden Elixir lies within Starfall Lake." At that time, Zhuhao didn't understand, but now he did. With Shen Hua's death, his great vengeance avenged, his Dao heart suddenly became clear. The path to the Golden Elixir was within reach.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAJE7wVEpiui
"Shen Hua, you old villain, don't think about escaping!" Zhuhao roared.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAJoUpmafh3o
Without hesitation, Zhuhao unleashed his fastest movement technique and headed straight for Shen Hua. The anger of avenging his slaughtered family mixed with the joy of the opportunity for the Golden Elixir, making Zhuhao's expression complex and eerie.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAoBwojHAcvR
The other Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Ji Shui Sect were already attracted by Zhuhao's roar and had turned back to join Zhuhao in besieging Shen Hua, leaving only two cultivators to continue the massacre of the Zhao family.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAbgCFHqfAvs
Shen Hua remained motionless, silently waiting for Zhuhao to walk into his trap. Shen Hua's cultivation had already reached the Golden Elixir stage, and combined with his expertise in concealment techniques, Zhuhao couldn't see through Shen Hua's true strength. He simply assumed that Shen Hua was still at the peak of Foundation Establishment.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAB5vxNjK3lr
However, breaking through to the Golden Elixir stage was no easy feat. Without the system's assistance, Shen Hua would never have been able to break through in his lifetime. After all, crossing the Golden Elixir Tribulation was a true matter of life and death for Foundation Establishment cultivators. Only those with extraordinary talent and equally extraordinary luck could survive the tribulation.
14Please respect copyright.PENANArlQRVHTjyc
Shen Hua looked at Zhuhao, recalling the painstaking effort he had put into nurturing the Shen family, only to see it completely annihilated. Anger and killing intent surged within Shen Hua's body, but he maintained his impassive demeanor. Decades of bloodshed in the cultivation world had long enabled Shen Hua to control his expressions at will.
14Please respect copyright.PENANA2nJT2M3yNL
The reason Shen Hua didn't directly reveal his Golden Elixir cultivation and slap Zhuhao to death with a single palm was because he activated the interception system to check Zhuhao's luck points. Zhuhao's luck points were terrifying, reaching a full one hundred and twenty points, making him a true son of fortune. Shen Hua had only dealt with one strongly fated individual before—Xi Xinglei. He didn't know if there would be a qualitative change once luck points reached one hundred.
14Please respect copyright.PENANA2fRWdXOz5A
Therefore, Shen Hua didn't dare to take risks. He had to ensure a one-hit kill. If he failed to kill Zhuhao with one blow, there might immediately be Golden Elixir cultivators appearing to protect Zhuhao. Within the Ji Shui Sect, there were even Nascent Soul old monsters.
14Please respect copyright.PENANARB7JWqJ4eF
Zhuhao looked at Shen Hua, whose expression remained unchanged, and the aura of killing intent emanating from him grew stronger.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAcKXv6v0biy
"Shen Hua, what are you thinking? This time, you won't escape."
Zhuhao was accompanied by the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Ji Shui Sect, totaling nine, as they surrounded Shen Hua.
14Please respect copyright.PENANASrp9wEbyTT
"No matter what preparations you have, they are futile in the face of absolute power," Zhuhao declared, feeling a sudden weight of destiny upon him. The gaze of his father and brother seemed to watch over him from above.
14Please respect copyright.PENANApSXe2MOgpm
Zhuhao's expression suddenly became calm. From this moment on, he would never be weak again. His speed was swift, and in just a few breaths, he arrived by Shen Hua's side.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAcChBxxm32F
"I am Zhuhao, the second son of the Zhe clan, the last man of the Zhe family," Zhuhao announced, recalling their first encounter when Shen Hua had asked about the three sons of the Shen family. Back then, Zhuhao dared not answer, only trembling in fear. Now, he finally had the confidence to reply. He was indeed the second son of the Zhe clan, the one who annihilated the entire Shen family.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAnCwUH5dUL4
Raising his sword, the same sword that had been intertwined with Zhuhao's life, Zhuhao's emotions resonated with it, emitting a resounding clang. An aura of extreme sharpness dispersed.
14Please respect copyright.PENANA33199O1Mym
The disciples of the Ji Shui Sect behind Zhuhao began to shout: "Senior Brother Zhuhao, end Shen Hua with one sword!" "Senior Brother Zhuhao will surely win; Shen Hua is nothing!" "Senior Brother Zhuhao, show Shen Hua your prowess!"
14Please respect copyright.PENANAYE9qVnZUek
A faint smile appeared on Zhuhao's face. At this moment, he bore the grudges of his entire clan, the blessings of his junior brothers, and the expectations of his master. He couldn't afford to lose.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAbkPavvU7Bg
Zhuhao was gathering his strength, preparing to unleash a devastating sword strike that would slay the Foundation Establishment pinnacle Shen Hua in one blow. Shen Hua, observing Zhuhao's fierce attack, narrowed his eyes slightly.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAZMP8C1nRBT
"Is this all you're capable of?" Shen Hua's voice was calm, his words carrying a hint of superiority. He showed no sense of being surrounded, which greatly displeased Zhuhao.
14Please respect copyright.PENANArrNkKLFNNa
It was as if Shen Hua still towered above him, just like that night when Zhuhao knelt and wept like a weakling.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAVHBamKftOY
"Die!" Zhuhao roared.
14Please respect copyright.PENANACjAr3LzMWA
With all the power he had gathered, Zhuhao finally unleashed his sword, releasing terrifying killing intent imbued with his deepest hatred. This sword had been honed for thirty years. As the sword slashed through the air, it created a disturbance in the space, a feat usually only achieved in battles between Golden Elixir experts. Zhuhao, achieving this with only a Foundation Establishment cultivation, truly lived up to his title as a genius.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAog8t9uvVAZ
As the sword struck, Zhuhao's face bore a smile. In his eyes, the power of this strike had reached the level of a Golden Elixir cultivator. Shen Hua, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, would surely be severely injured even if he managed to withstand the blow.
However, Shen Hua just smiled faintly and slowly raised his right hand in front of him.
14Please respect copyright.PENANA3Mwr06QKzp
"Wind Vortex."
14Please respect copyright.PENANAtibXI4YEM2
The chilling wind gathered between Shen Hua's fingers, forming a whirlwind emitting powerful suction. Countless wind blades spun within the vortex, flying out.
14Please respect copyright.PENANATUKqk0c0hU
Since Shen Hua's cultivation had reached the Golden Elixir realm, his spiritual consciousness had become more than ten times stronger, greatly enhancing his control over various spells. Moreover, each wind blade, amplified by Shen Hua's Dao traces, now possessed triple the power.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAzlu05EiSWB
Zhuhao's sword strike might have been remarkable in the Foundation Establishment realm, but in the Golden Elixir realm, it was merely a weak attack. Caught in Shen Hua's wind vortex and bombarded by countless wind blades, Zhuhao's strike was thoroughly nullified.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAbfJf1Ol3Rz
Zhuhao's pupils contracted in disbelief. How could his formidable sword strike be so easily countered? Was Shen Hua truly this powerful?
14Please respect copyright.PENANARpVesAi8UL
"It's impossible!" Zhuhao exclaimed in frustration.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAIFK5g18AcL
Shen Hua continued to smile faintly, no longer concealing his aura. The aura of a Golden Elixir cultivator overflowed from him. His eyes, sharp as a hawk's, locked onto Zhuhao. Shen Hua knew that with Zhuhao's astronomical luck value of 120, he couldn't afford to give him any chance to catch his breath.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAHRZSMG5351
Seizing the moment of Zhuhao's shock, Shen Hua's mana surged within him.
14Please respect copyright.PENANA69nxNxYaFt
"Wind Dragon."
14Please respect copyright.PENANANWAHOZULzc
A fierce gale suddenly arose, coalescing into the form of a massive dragon roaring and rampaging. The terrifying force emitted by the wind dragon caused trees to be uprooted, and leaves to swirl around in the air. The dragon's head and claws were imbued with wind blades and other minor spells.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAvcmWMfdmJ9
Any wind-based spell cast by Shen Hua would be tripled in power by his Dao traces. With this amplification, the wind dragon's power was terrifying, making it Shen Hua's strongest attack in his current state.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAK1sUEK8Zcc
Shen Hua's spiritual power was fully unleashed, necessary to control such a complex spell. With a single wave of his hand, the wind dragon pounced directly at Zhuhao.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAbretiTczPE
This attack had been brewing for a long time and was incredibly fast. Moreover, Shen Hua had calculated the distance between him and Zhuhao, ensuring they were close enough for Zhuhao to be unable to dodge the strike.
14Please respect copyright.PENANA2E5SL8khvl
But suddenly, a strong white light erupted from Zhuhao's body, forming a shield that firmly blocked Shen Hua's strongest attack.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAmkCEWm1Q6w
Shen Hua frowned. Dealing with someone with a luck value exceeding 100 was indeed challenging. To think that a Foundation Establishment cultivator would possess a life-saving artifact capable of withstanding attacks from a Golden Elixir cultivator!
14Please respect copyright.PENANA9lBllIbmYG
Zhuhao, having experienced the vicissitudes of life, quickly regained his composure, his brain working frantically.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAl54WlJY8Ma
Knowing that he couldn't compete with Shen Hua now that he had successfully advanced to the Golden Elixir realm, Zhuhao sighed in relief that the sect leader had provided him with some life-saving treasures, granting him a chance to survive even against a Golden Elixir cultivator.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAy0DmoKSbbU
After a moment, the shield shattered, but the wind dragon's power had also been exhausted.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAnGjYgLucGv
Zhuhao swiftly flew away, his speed exceeding the limits of Foundation Establishment cultivation. He had used a secret technique, sacrificing his lifespan to gain this incredible speed.
14Please respect copyright.PENANA3ILyXDSRcU
"Senior brothers, help me stop that Shen Hua!" Zhuhao shouted, but only two Foundation Establishment cultivators stepped forward. The others were too frightened by Shen Hua's sudden release of Golden Elixir aura.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAD12ke8Z6Ir
The gap between Golden Elixir and Foundation Establishment was insurmountable. Rushing forward would only lead to death. After all, everyone had worked hard to reach the Foundation Establishment stage, and they still had many years of life left to enjoy. How could they sacrifice themselves for Zhuhao?
14Please respect copyright.PENANASfrorqQCOv
Yet they couldn't simply leave. Zhuhao was considered a seedling of the sect's Yuanying stage, and abandoning him would result in severe punishment.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAhLC2trJ0XF
As the two cultivators who dared to confront Shen Hua stood in front of him, activating their strongest defensive techniques, Shen Hua's eyes remained fixed on Zhuhao, paying no attention to the cultivators in front of him.
14Please respect copyright.PENANA0zWwvCK409
With a powerful gust of wind swirling in his hand, Shen Hua's Golden Elixir aura spread unchecked.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAlYFewxlzgE
In an instant, as Shen Hua passed by the two Foundation Establishment cultivators, the strong wind turned them into a pile of flesh and blood.
14Please respect copyright.PENANAr8WOQ3FnHy
The disparity between Golden Elixir and Foundation Establishment was like a chasm.
14Please respect copyright.PENANATCze88lUxE
Without hesitation, Shen Hua exerted all his strength to activate his movement technique, Windwalk.
