Chapter 426 Eighth Layer? (2/2)

Yang Xuan’s eyes were filled with cruel savagenes as he stared at Zhou Yuan. There were traces of blood on the deathly white bone whip from when blood had splattered from Zhou Yuan’s arms earlier. Yang Xuan gave the whip a little jerk to shake of the blood as he said in an eerie voice, “What do you think? How many strikes of my whip will it take to shatter all the bones in your body?”

However, Zhou Yuan did not answer. His body swiftly began to etherealized as he immediately turned around and fled like a wisp of smoke.

*Uproar*

Zhou Yuan’s actions immediately caused an uproar to sweep over the area.

No one had expected him to flee when faced with a clearly much more powerful Yang Xuan.

Bai Li bit into her lips when she saw this. Although she knew that this was the best choice of action, her eyes still dimmed a little in disappointment.

The morale of the other Cangxuan disciples also plummeted at this moment.

In contrast, the Sacred Palace disciples roared with laughter, laughter filled with mockery and disdain.

An amused look emerged in Yang Xuan’s eyes as he watched Zhou Yuan’s fleeing figure, before he shook his head and said in a cold, emotionless voice, “Isn’t it a little too late for you to run?”

“I’ve already said that I will make you pay a painful price today!”

Swish!

Yang Xuan’s figure abruptly disappeared as his voice faded, turning into a blur as he gave chase. He clearly had no intentions of letting Zhou Yuan off.

As such, two figures streaked across the sky under countless watching eyes.

After a few dozen breaths.

The two figures appeared several dozen miles away.

Yang Xian had become quite impatient. The bone whip in his hand transformed into a flash of light as it lashed out, tearing through the air as it darted towards Zhou Yuan’s head.

Zhou Yuan gave the Heavenly Yuan Brush a slight shake. Its snow-white brush hairs streamed out, swiftly interweaving into a thick white net behind him that was covered in Genesis Qi.

Ch!

The bone whip struck the white net, causing it to stretch at an alarming angle. With its outstanding flexibility and toughness, it ultimately managed to stop the bone whip.

However, the force that seeped through was still able to lash at Zhou Yuan’s back, jerking him forward as a sinister looking wound appeared on his back.

Yang Xuan made use of this opportunity to appear in front of Zhou Yuan, cutting off his path of escape.

With a grabbing motion, the bone whip returned to Yang Xuan’s hand. He pointed it at Zhou Yuan, as a cruel smile akin to a cat toying with a mouse appeared from the corners of his mouth.

“Little mouse, did you really believe you would be able to escape?”

Yang Xuan smiled a little, before he continued, “If you break both your legs and kneel, I may consider letting you keep your life. How about it?”

In the face of Yang Xuan’s suffocating pressure, Zhou Yuan took in a deep breath. He ignored the former’s mocking words, a grave expression on his face as his hands slowly came together.

The ground under his feet began to faintly tremble.

Numerous rays of light burst out from under the ground, swiftly joining together as they enveloped the area within a thousand feet.

Rumble!

Thunder boomed as the temperature began to rise.

Yang Xuan looked downwards at the ground as he focused. His expression soon turned frosty as he said, “A boundary? So you were planning on luring me here?”

Zhou Yuan did not reply. With a sudden stamp of his foot, an icy and serious look filled his eyes.

“Heavenly Lightning and Mystical Fire Boundary!”

“Rise!”

In the next instant, lightning and fire began to pour out.
