Chapter 656: Chapter 645 Genius Ri Jue!

Shi Feng arrived in the night sky, his young and cold face still displaying an air of indifference. Having heard the earlier words of Ri Chengxuan, he proclaimed, "I am Shi Feng!"

Then he turned his gaze toward Ri Chengxuan, Yuel Xihan, and Kunl Tianyu, and with a cold voice, he asked, "And who the hell are you?"

Shi Feng’s words echoing through the night sky stunned the crowd in Tianlan Imperial City below into an exclamation: "That Shi Feng! Always the same! Now, faced with the leaders of the Three Sacred Lands—the Sect Master, the Church Queen, and the Sect Hierarch—he’s still as arrogant as ever!"

"Perhaps arrogance has become his second nature! But today, his swagger should come to an end!"

"Hehe, this fearless young brat, I wonder what his face will look like once those three overbearing lords kill him!"

...

With Shi Feng’s appearance, it seemed Ri Chengxuan was in a particularly good mood, not taking offense to the "who the hell are you" comment but instead introducing himself with a smile, "This one here is Ri Chengxuan, the Sect Leader of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, next to me is our Church Queen Yuel Xihan, and this old fellow is Kunl Tianyu, the Sect Master of the Tiankun Sect!"

"Oh? Tiankun Sect!" After hearing Ri Chengxuan’s introduction, Shi Feng turned his head and fixed his gaze upon the imposing elder, Kunl Tianyu, then spoke, "I’ve killed a few of your Tiankun Sect members; it’s right that you would seek vengeance upon me."

Shi Feng’s gaze then shifted to Ri Chengxuan and Yuel Xihan as he continued, "However, while the Tiankun Sect seeking revenge is justified, what business does your so-called Divine Sect have in it? Whatever, If you’re so eager to come to me seeking death, then don’t waste my precious time—just go and kill yourselves."

The words of Shi Feng, resonating through the night sky, especially his last sentence, stirred up an uproar in Tianlan Imperial City!

"Kill themselves? Shi Feng is actually telling members of the Tiankun Sect and the Sun and Moon Divine Sect to kill themselves? Am I hearing this correctly?"

"This! This Shi Feng is just so ridiculous! Is he pretending so much because he knows he’s definitely going to die—thus putting on this farce?"

"Hehe, maybe after killing Wang Zhuo, Shi Feng foolishly believes he can kill the experts from the Tiankun Sect and the Sun and Moon Divine Sect. Haha, Wang Zhuo is nowhere near their level!"

"To utter such words to the leaders of the Three Sacred Lands, it seems Shi Feng is doomed tonight!"

...

At this moment, even the powerful members of the Lann Family had no faith in Shi Feng. Even though he had emerged from the Martial Arts Sky Tower and stepped into the Seven-star Martial Saint Realm, even though he had killed Lann Jie, he now faced the Tiankun Sect and the Sun and Moon Divine Sect.

Especially the Sun and Moon Divine Sword of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect—none of them, even together, could contend with it!

"Hehe, I didn’t expect the Hierarch to find such a clown. Then let me shatter his Dantian, take him back to our sect, and keep him like a pig or dog; when we’ve nothing better to do, we can have him perform for us and tell jokes to cheer us up."

A young man in his early thirties, wearing a robe adorned with a pattern of the sun, chuckled while stepping out from the crowd of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect.

When this person appeared, there were Martial Artists below who recognized him and immediately exclaimed in shock, "The number one prodigy of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, Ri Jue!"

"Yes! It’s Ri Jue! Rumors have it that Ri Jue’s Martial Arts Realm has already entered the Eight-star Martial Saint Realm! To say that Ri Jue is the Sun and Moon Divine Sect’s number one prodigy doesn’t do him justice, he is actually our Eastern Domain’s number one prodigy!"

"It’s said that Ri Jue has been titled the Son of the Sun by the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, which means he is the next Sect Hierarch, inheritor of the Sun God Sword!"

Seeing Ri Jue come out, Ri Chengxuan nodded his head and said, "Remember, spare his life."

"Understood!" Ri Jue lightly acknowledged with ease, then with a relaxed and leisurely air, he strolled towards Shi Feng, and with a tone full of mockery, he spoke to Shi Feng, "I didn’t expect someone as young as you to have entered the Seven-star Martial Saint Realm. When I was your age, I didn’t possess such talent! But, what use is that? I, Ri Jue, will only become stronger and stronger in the future, and it’s very likely that I’ll enter the Realm of Martial Emperor. Meanwhile, your prodigious talents will soon be destroyed, your Dantian shattered, reducing you to a cripple. From now on, you’ll be treated like a pig or dog under my care, haha!"

The very thought of destroying the Dantian of such a prodigy excited Ri Jue! For a genius, the most satisfying thing was to kill other geniuses, especially when it was a peerless prodigy whose Martial Arts Realm had reached the Seven-star Martial Saint Realm at only sixteen or seventeen years old!

Looking at the young man with a mocking smile on his face approaching him, Shi Feng’s mouth curled into a more disdainful smile as he coldly said, "Just a little dog, and you dare to bark? You’re humiliating yourself!"

As Shi Feng spoke, he flexed the middle finger of his right hand and then flicked forward, a stream of White Sword Qi shooting out from his fingertip towards Ri Jue.

"You dare to fight back?" Seeing Shi Feng launch the first attack, Ri Jue coldly shouted. He extended his right hand towards the incoming White Sword Qi, and a sun-like phantom the size of a fist emerged in the palm of his hand, radiating the light of the sun and illuminating heaven and earth!

At that moment, the White Sword Qi flew swiftly and pierced Ri Jue’s palm, hitting the phantom sun in the center of his hand.

Instantly, the look of disdain and mockery on Ri Jue’s face transformed, his eyes widened in disbelief.

The sun-like phantom in the center of his palm was utterly destroyed by the White Sword Qi, and the sunlight that filled the sky was instantly snuffed out, plunging everything into darkness.

And not only that, but the White Sword Qi pierced through Ri Jue’s palm in a flash and then stabbed into his lower abdomen!

"No! No! No!" In the night sky, three screams like those of a slaughtered pig echoed as Ri Jue cried out—the Sword Qi that had pierced him signaled the imminent destruction of his Dantian!

With a "pop," a sound like a bursting bubble echoed through the void. Ri Jue’s eyes bulged as he stared down in shock at his lower abdomen.

The clothes around his abdomen were torn open, revealing a bloody hole through which bright red blood gushed out.

As much as the gaping hole was bearable for Ri Jue, what he could not endure was the sensation that his Dantian had been shattered by an immense force in that very moment!

Such a prodigy, who had reached the Eight-star Martial Saint Realm at the mere age of thirty-three and was heralded as the number one prodigy of the Eastern Domain, a person who had a very likely chance to advance to the Realm of Martial Emperor, now had his Dantian broken. For Ri Jue, this was more agonizing than death itself!

"No!" Ri Jue roared and bellowed like a madman, utterly unable to accept this reality.
