As a series of deafening crashes resounded, the earth trembled violently.
Around Zhang Shaoqian, rocks gathered to form a massive stone fist that shot toward him with crushing force.
"Heh."
Seeing this, Zhang Shaoqian sneered coldly.
Wielding Ye Fan Sword, he slashed through the air, sending out a powerful sword energy that split the rock fist in two.
The middle-aged man's expression faltered slightly.
"Everyone, attack together! The weapon in his hand is not ordinary!"
Cautious by nature, the man refrained from attacking Zhang Shaoqian alone and instead signaled the other Martial Master-level fighters to join forces.
Whoosh—
At that moment, a long sword appeared in his hand.
The five Martial Masters, weapons in hand, charged at Zhang Shaoqian.
"Courting death," Zhang Shaoqian muttered grimly.
While wielding Ye Fan Sword, he could feel his strength enhanced in all aspects.
He had long been prepared to unleash the sword's power on these Martial Masters!
Crackle—
As the group launched their attacks, arcs of electricity crackled around Ye Fan Sword.
Boom—
In the next instant, a surge of terrifying electrical energy shot forth!
"Not good!"
The faces of the five Martial Masters turned pale.
The lightning moved too fast for them to fully evade, and the deadly arcs of electricity coursed through their bodies.
Their armor shattered under the assault, and their skin blackened from the burns.
"Ahhh!!!"
The intense pain forced them to scream in agony as their bodies were flung backward by the shockwave.
"Is this the extent of Martial Masters' power?"
Zhang Shaoqian scoffed, his confidence surging once more.
At this moment, he felt invincible. Even Martial Masters posed no real threat.
With a fierce glint in his eyes, he charged straight at the middle-aged man.
"Not good!"
Seeing Zhang Shaoqian closing in, the man's pupils contracted in fear.
Ignoring the pain ravaging his body, he raised his sword in an attempt to meet Zhang Shaoqian's strike head-on.
Boom—
In an instant, his sword shattered into countless fragments.
"Impossible!"
The man's eyes filled with disbelief.
How could his weapon be destroyed in a single clash? It was incomprehensible.
Before he could process the shock, Zhang Shaoqian thrust Ye Fan Sword forward, piercing the man's protective aura as if it were paper, and driving the blade through his skull.
His eyes widened, his mouth opened in a silent scream, disbelief frozen in his final moments.
He was... a powerful Martial Master!
"Next, it's your turn."
Zhang Shaoqian casually withdrew Ye Fan Sword from the man's skull, his gaze sweeping over the remaining fighters.
Energy and blood essence rapidly flowed into Ye Fan Sword, continuously strengthening it.
[Killed Martial Master, gained 100,000 evolution points]
[Absorbed Martial Master's blood essence, gained 10 energy points]
[Absorbed Martial Master's blood essence, gained 10 energy points]
...
The energy Zhang Shaoqian had spent was immediately replenished, and there was even a surplus.
His cultivation technique automatically kicked in, rapidly absorbing the excess energy.
"Kill him!!!"
Overcoming their terror, the remaining four Martial Masters roared and unleashed their most powerful techniques in unison.
"Futile!"
"All of this is useless!!!"
Zhang Shaoqian laughed loudly, showing no fear as the terrifying energy attacks hurtled toward him.
Boom—
The attacks neared Zhang Shaoqian, but at the last moment, he wildly swung Ye Fan Sword.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
In an instant, the deadly energies were sliced apart and dissipated into the air.
"This... how is this possible!!!"
The Martial Masters were utterly shaken.
Never in their lives had they seen someone cleave through energy attacks so effortlessly.
"Now it's my turn."
Licking his lips, Zhang Shaoqian's face twisted into a menacing grin.
Raising Ye Fan Sword high, a torrent of powerful sword energy surged from the blade.
"What is this..."
Sensing the deadly threat, the Martial Masters instinctively felt a deep chill.
"Quick, dodge!"
Without hesitation, they attempted to retreat.
But it was too late.
"You can't escape."
With a cold smile, Zhang Shaoqian swung Ye Fan Sword through the air.
Countless waves of sword energy exploded forth, slashing toward the four Martial Masters.
No!!!
They screamed in their hearts, desperately trying to flee with all their might.
But they were too slow.
The sword energy moved at lightning speed, cutting through their bodies, shredding them into pieces.
Martial Masters did not possess nascent souls.
Once their physical bodies were destroyed, death was absolute.
[Killed Martial Master, gained 100,000 evolution points]

[Killed Martial Master, gained 100,000 evolution points]
[Absorbed Martial Master's blood essence, gained 10 energy points]

...
"Hahaha!"
"Martial Masters, nothing more than this! Nothing more than this!!!"
