In front of Li Xiaotian, hundreds of Emperor-level powerhouses remained in utter silence, not a single sound uttered. They all stared at him in disbelief, their hearts filled with confusion and shock.
Li Xiaotian wasn't injured?
His strength had long since recovered! He had deliberately set a trap to ensnare them!
And at this moment, the most shocked were Zi Yun and the others. They had been the first to charge into the palace, only to be repelled by an immense pressure.
If Li Xiaotian was the only one in the palace, then that terrifying pressure must have belonged to him!
"Li Xiaotian, when did you recover your strength?" Zi Yun asked, his heart filled with apprehension. He had a very bad feeling.
"My strength had long since recovered, yet you deliberately set a trap to ensnare us, Li Xiaotian, what deep calculations you have! All the major sects have been deceived by you!" Someone spoke, their tone filled with hatred.
"Are there other powerhouses in the palace? Li Xiaotian, have them come out, don't hide. Since it has come to this, there's no turning back. No matter who you've invited today, you must die!" Everyone spoke in unison. Even if Li Xiaotian's strength had recovered, so what? Could he alone contend against over a hundred Emperor-level powerhouses?
"Heh, have you said enough? If you have, then die! I don't like talking to dead people!" Li Xiaotian raised an eyebrow and spoke unhurriedly, his tone indifferent.
Hearing Li Xiaotian's words, the powerhouses from various factions were instantly enraged. At this point, Li Xiaotian still dared to be arrogant! They were about to berate Li Xiaotian again, but immediately, a terrifying aura erupted from Li Xiaotian, causing everyone's expressions to change.
"Boom!"
Li Xiaotian's clothes fluttered as if by wind. A terrifying and powerful aura erupted from his body, soaring into the sky. Even the dark clouds seemed to be intimidated by this aura and retreated. Dafeng Novel Network.
At the same time, the powerhouses from various factions opposite Li Xiaotian all turned pale, feeling difficulty in breathing, as if they were about to suffocate.
They were filled with horror, their eyes wide open, their faces full of disbelief!
"Hegemon-level!" Zi Yun gritted his teeth and growled, deep within his eyes filled with fear, his body trembling slightly.
"This... how is this possible?!! How did he break through to Hegemon? This is impossible!" Someone muttered to themselves, utterly unwilling to believe what they were seeing. Every Emperor-level powerhouse present had cultivated for thousands of years! Even those with exceptionally good talent had cultivated for hundreds of years. They had painstakingly sought breakthroughs, but most remained stagnant. Yet Li Xiaotian, how long had he been cultivating? A person in their early twenties, how could they possibly break through to Hegemon-level so quickly?
"This is unfair! How dare you break through to Hegemon?"
"Why? Since you have already broken through to Hegemon, why did you deliberately feign weakness to lure us here?" Someone, pale with fear, asked. Li Xiaotian could kill Hegemons when he was still at Emperor-level, and now that he was a Hegemon, who below Heavenly-level could resist him?
"Heh, we were all deceived by Li Xiaotian. He broke through to Hegemon but pretended to be severely injured to lure us here, all to destroy us!" Someone let out a bitter laugh, their eyes filled with despair. With Li Xiaotian having broken through to Hegemon, all they could do was flee.
"Escape!" A powerhouse reacted. Without even alerting their own sect companions, they turned and fled.
Instantly, over a dozen figures scattered and fled into the distance. They did not believe that the combined might of their group could destroy Li Xiaotian.
"Can you escape?" Li Xiaotian glanced at the fleeing figures, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. The long saber in his hand instantly flew out.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Following that, rumbling sounds and screams of those people came from afar. Li Xiaotian's saber, as if possessed of its own consciousness, pierced through their bodies, drawing a circle in the air and leaving behind streaks of blood.
With a single strike, fourteen Emperor-level powerhouses perished!
Seeing this, those who had not yet acted felt their hearts turn to ice, their eyes filled with despair. Li Xiaotian was too powerful at this moment!
"Attack! Let's fight him, so what if he's a Hegemon? Today, we too shall slay a Hegemon!" A powerhouse roared, and then instantly attacked, unleashing the full power of their peak Emperor-level aura.
As if igniting a fuse, over a dozen late-stage Emperor-level powerhouses present attacked together, each unleashing a full-power strike towards Li Xiaotian.
"Heh!" Li Xiaotian sneered. A ball of black mist suddenly appeared in front of him. All their attacks plunged into the black mist, and then, their attacks dissipated as if nothing had happened. All that remained was that patch of black mist. If one looked closely, they would feel that the black mist in front of Li Xiaotian was like a black hole, devouring everything, even light!
Seeing this, Zi Yun and the others were stunned, cold sweat beading on their foreheads. The combined attacks of their dozen or so people were easily neutralized by Li Xiaotian.
"Power of Law!!! What kind of Law is this? Why is it so terrifying?" Someone, pale with fright, muttered to themselves.
"Escape!!!" Someone roared. Who would dare to oppose Li Xiaotian, who was this powerful? Who would dare to attack him?
Instantly, the hundred or so Emperor-level powerhouses present descended into chaos, scattering and fleeing. Li Xiaotian's power made them not even dare to think of resistance; their only thought was to escape! To get out!
"We cannot escape!!! Let's attack him together, otherwise, we will all die today!!!" Zi Yun roared, his heart filled with anxiety. The more terrifying Li Xiaotian's strength became, the less they should flee, because doing so would only lead to them being slaughtered one by one by Li Xiaotian!
Some people, heeding Zi Yun's words, began to attack Li Xiaotian, but more people fled without looking back.
"It's useless. Today, you will all die. No one can escape!" Li Xiaotian's tone was mocking. The black mist in front of him suddenly dispersed, covering the entire capital in an instant. At this moment, light vanished!
Li Xiaotian, holding his long saber, faced the attacks of Zi Yun and the others. He merely slashed out casually, and they were all sent flying back. Several people, too weak, died on the spot.
Within the black mist, screams continued to erupt. Li Xiaotian was like an executioner, walking in the darkness, reaping lives.
Screams continued to sound, and people continued to attack Li Xiaotian, but at this moment, Li Xiaotian was like a war god, rampaging on the battlefield!
"Ah!!! I am not reconciled!!!" In the darkness, Zi Yun roared, his eyes bloodshot. His strength was not weak; he had already touched the threshold of Hegemon and would break through soon. He did not want to die here!
"Li Xiaotian!!! Die!!!" Zi Yun roared, and blinding purple light erupted from his body, momentarily repelling the surrounding darkness. Immediately, Zi Yun's aura rapidly surged, making people feel as if he were also a Hegemon.
