"How is this even possible?" The moment everyone saw this scene, their eyes went wide. Clearly, this new flame formation was absolutely monstrous—way tougher than the previous one, probably by a factor of ten or more. It wasn’t just some run-of-the-mill array; it was almost on par with the Slay-Immortal Formation they were brewing up right now!
But even so, this formation couldn’t shake Ryan Ling in the slightest—instead, he just sucked it all up in an instant, leaving nothing behind!
It was straight-up unbelievable—like, this kind of thing shouldn’t even be possible!
Right now, it wasn’t just Heaven-Earth Sect folks who were dumbfounded—even the rest of Heaven City was in shock. Everyone was just staring, totally mesmerized. In their eyes, Ryan Ling was basically a god, and even the Immortal Emperor on the scene looked shell-shocked!
This time, he was nowhere near as calm as before—his face was rattled, and, honestly, his heart was trembling. If Ryan Ling smashed through Heaven-Earth Sect, his next move would be to swallow up all of Heaven City!
"No way!" The Immortal Emperor didn’t hesitate for a second—he instantly sent out a powerful intent, calling for backup, his three older brothers. Those three were all top-tier Immortal Emperors, and only by joining forces could they make a real impact. Otherwise, it was all just for show!
He started frantically sending messages, but his heart skipped a beat when he realized his three brothers were all still in closed-door cultivation—not a peep from them. That made him even more nervous!
Still, he was the core figure in Heaven City right now. If he lost his nerve, the fallout would be massive. So he forced himself to stay steady and shouted, "Crank up the Slay-Immortal Formation! Push it to max power—right now!"
As soon as he said that, everyone jumped into action. Tons of Immortal Lords joined the formation—the more people in the Slay-Immortal Formation, the stronger it got. At this point, at least a hundred people had joined in. Once it fully fired up, it’d be an absolute monster—no doubt about it!
While they were going nuts boosting their formation, on the other side, Heaven-Earth Sect was basically pushed to the brink—like, one more shove and they’d be toast!
"Stop him! Stop him!" At this moment, all the top brass from Heaven-Earth Sect rushed out. After watching Ryan Ling smash through two formations in a row, they were basically on the verge of a total meltdown!
Ryan Ling was charging in like a rampaging wild bull—full speed, zero brakes. The way he looked was honestly terrifying, like nothing in the world could stop him now!
But this was still the Heaven-Earth Sect Headquarters. No matter how cocky or wild Ryan Ling got, there were still people here ready to fight to the death. This was do-or-die time for the whole sect—and with all of Heaven City watching, a squad of death-soldiers stationed at HQ dashed out, totally ready to die for the cause!
"Not bad!" Even Ryan Ling was a little shaken seeing this. He hadn’t expected these guys to be so hardcore—part of him didn’t even want to wipe them out. If only they could switch sides and become his own death-soldiers... But in the split second he hesitated, the death-soldiers went completely berserk and surrounded him inside and out. Ryan’s aura was crazy strong—nobody normal could handle it—but as soon as those death-soldiers unleashed their killing intent, his aura seemed to weaken a bit!
"Nice! That’s it! Crush his momentum—kill him, kill him!" The elders and elites of Heaven-Earth Sect were screaming like maniacs. They’d totally lost it and had no clue what to do anymore. Right now, all they could hope for was to hold out as long as possible, no matter what. Meanwhile, more people started frantically hauling out the sect’s valuables—clearly, it was time to bail!
"Bunch of idiots!" Ryan Ling sneered, totally unfazed. He wasn’t scared of these death-soldiers—though he did feel a twinge of regret seeing how hard they fought. But since these guys just refused to read the room, Ryan wasn’t about to show mercy. He shouted, and a wave of insane power swept out, shaking heaven and earth, snuffing out the sun and moon. Everything got wrapped up in his aura, and the death-soldiers’ killing intent was instantly blasted away—nothing left but a scene of pure carnage!
Watching the death-soldiers drop one by one, Ryan Ling called out again: "If you retreat now, you get to live!"
That shout echoed through all of Heaven City—everyone heard it, loud and clear. Nobody could believe what they were hearing!
Right after he said that, the death-soldiers who'd been so determined suddenly wavered. Ryan Ling’s aura was just too overwhelming—he was on a whole other level. Just a few words from him were enough to make everything else crumble!
All the top experts nearby—including Heaven-Earth Sect’s best—were shaken. Nobody dared speak. They all knew deep down that these death-soldiers weren’t going to hold the line.
And just as that thought flashed through their minds, something unbelievable happened—a deafening boom shook the earth and sky, and the death-soldiers who’d been fighting like mad suddenly burst into flames. It was pure carnage!
After seeing that, everyone knew Ryan Ling wasn’t kidding around anymore!
(Irrelevant system message: This chapter isn’t over yet ^.^, please click next page to keep reading!)
Finally, even the most diehard death-soldiers cracked. The gap between their strength and Ryan Ling’s was just too massive—totally unacceptable. They were fighting for their lives, but all it did was let the sect’s top brass escape while they acted as human shields!
That left them totally disheartened, and at last, the remaining death-soldiers couldn’t take it anymore. One after another, they dropped to their knees—clearly surrendering to Ryan Ling!
Seeing that, the rest of the Heaven-Earth Sect guards couldn’t hold out either—they all dropped to their knees, too. If the death-soldiers couldn’t handle it, there was no way anyone else could. The whole sect basically collapsed in one go!
"That’s it, we’re done for—totally done!" The Heaven City experts watching had their morale shattered all over again. Most of them didn’t even know what to say anymore; some just collapsed where they stood, like deflated soccer balls, totally losing their spirit.
"Keep cranking the Slay-Immortal Formation—max it out, max it out!" The Immortal Emperor was still yelling like crazy, his voice getting more desperate by the second.
It looked like things in Heaven City were way worse than he’d imagined!
With the death-soldier squad totally wiped out, Heaven-Earth Sect had nothing left to stop Ryan Ling. He didn’t hesitate for a second—just charged right in. No mercy, no second thoughts; he only had one goal: wipe Heaven-Earth Sect off the map!
'Ryan Ling, wait!' Just as Heaven-Earth Sect was about to be wiped out, a trembling voice suddenly rang out!
'You want to be the first to die?' Ryan Ling didn’t hesitate for a second, his voice totally domineering!
'You want me dead? I doubt you’re up to it!' The guy sneered, then added, 'Don’t forget—your family’s still in my hands. If I give the order, they’ll be dead and buried!'
'Oh yeah?' Ryan Ling didn’t look worried at all—in fact, he seemed totally confident!
Seeing Ryan Ling’s expression, the speaker froze, clearly confused.
But he quickly shouted, “Bring those people here! I’ll kill them one by one!”
Just as he finished speaking, people started moving—but before they could, a figure shot over, grabbed his jaw, and with a crunch, snapped it clean!
The guy couldn’t talk at all—his words just turned into a mumble.
Ryan Ling called out coldly, “You think I wouldn’t see through your tricks? Threatening my family? You’re begging to die!”
Right after Ryan Ling finished, two voices suddenly rang out nearby!
Ha, you really think you can threaten Ryan Ling’s family?
Yeah, keep dreaming!
......
Hearing those voices, everyone froze—nobody saw this coming. The speakers were none other than Lynn Long and Qian Qian. With Ryan Ling’s boost, both had already become Immortal Lords, and not just any Immortal Lords—they had insane stealth skills, too. When Ryan started his attack on Heaven City, the two of them used ancient Heavenwood’s power to tunnel underground and sneak into Heaven-Earth Sect. At the time, everyone was focused on Ryan—nobody expected two women to break in from below!
While the battle raged, Lynn Long and Qian Qian used the Heavenwood to get all Ryan Ling’s friends and family out of Heaven City, stashing them somewhere totally safe. So this idiot from Heaven-Earth Sect trying to threaten Ryan’s family? Beyond dumb.
Seeing this, the guy who’d been talking totally lost it—he was done, totally hopeless.
At this point, every trick against Ryan Ling was played out. He’d reached the end of the line.
'Got nothing left to say?' Ryan Ling sneered, not hesitating for a second. He struck—crack! The top-tier Immortal Lord exploded, wiped out in an instant!
Seeing this, all the Heaven-Earth Sect disciples dropped to their knees, and the Heaven City experts outside were stunned. Ryan Ling’s power had shot up—nobody could believe it! It was terrifying!
Heaven-Earth Sect, today I’m wiping you out for good!' Ryan Ling’s voice boomed like a bell, shaking the world. Nobody saw this kind of power coming!
The whole sect was shaking, totally falling apart—on the brink of complete destruction!
But right at that critical moment, a fierce rainbow light swept out from Heaven-Earth Sect. It was insanely powerful—way beyond anything anyone had ever seen. Even the Immortal Emperor was shocked; nobody expected the sect to unleash such strength at the last second!
Ryan Ling froze for a second—he’d thought the sect was done for. But out of nowhere, Heaven-Earth Sect rallied, unleashing a power so wild it shocked everyone. Ryan sensed the combined force of at least ten peak Immortal Lords—nothing else could explain this kind of power. It could sweep away everything!
You little punk, you really think this is all we’ve got? You couldn’t be more wrong!' A booming voice rang out, full of pent-up power. Ryan turned to see nine elders behind him, each radiating incredible strength—peak Immortal Lords, every one. Their ferocity was off the charts!
The moment those words were spoken, waves of overwhelming power swept out, engulfing the whole world—including Ryan Ling himself. Just like that, all his advantages were blown away!
Heaven-Earth Sect really had some tricks left—who knew they were hiding these experts?' The Heaven City experts watching were stunned; suddenly, there was hope!
Those powerful auras closed in around Ryan Ling, plunging the world into chaos. Fire and wind raged, turning everything into a living hell—nobody could believe what they were seeing.
Right in the middle of it all, Ryan Ling seemed to lose control. But at the critical moment, he snapped—his aura flared with terrifying strength, way beyond any Immortal Lord. Against all odds, he fought the sect’s top experts to a standstill. People were losing their minds—Ryan Ling was just that strong!
Unbelievable—absolutely unbelievable! I’ve never seen anyone like him. How strong is he, really?' The crowd was stunned; with power like that, Heaven-Earth Sect couldn’t hold out. Ten peak Immortal Lords had planned this attack forever, but it still failed—nobody could believe it!
Impossible—no way! This is insane. Nobody’s ever seen anything like this!' The Heaven-Earth Sect experts were losing it, unable to believe what was happening.
Their power surged to the max—a wave of force slammed into Ryan Ling, reaching a level beyond any Immortal Lord. It was almost at the Immortal Emperor’s tier. Even Guo Fengxiao was stunned; he could hardly believe Heaven-Earth Sect could unleash such strength. Even he might not be able to withstand it!
Even crazier, Ryan Ling held his ground under the barrage—no hint of retreat. It was shocking!
This kid’s power is unreal!' Immortal Emperor Guo Fengxiao was floored—he knew he was no match for Ryan Ling. But without hesitation, he blasted his own energy into his hand and attacked, backing up the sect’s top experts. With his help, they should be able to unleash even more power!
With Guo Fengxiao’s help, Ryan Ling was surrounded again. The pressure went wild—now it wasn’t just Heaven-Earth Sect, but all of Heaven City joining the attack. With top-level power raining down, it was like a thousand dragons striking at once. The sky exploded with energy—nobody had ever seen anything like it. It was chaos!
Kill him—kill him now!' Guo Fengxiao screamed, desperate to take out Ryan Ling. He knew this was his best shot; if he missed it, it’d be even harder later.
Ryan Ling felt the pressure—he knew the attacks were overwhelming. Even at peak Immortal Lord, he was surrounded by hundreds of experts, including Guo Fengxiao himself. Against that kind of force, even he might not hold out!
He was almost out of strength—then, out of nowhere, a mysterious power surged into him. It was overwhelming, like the whole city was backing him up. Ryan Ling was stunned, but in an instant, his strength exploded, shooting up to peak Immortal Lord!
