Chapter 724: A Fleeting Shadow
Chapter 724: A Fleeting Shadow
Mo Zun’s expression became increasingly furious.
He simply couldn’t believe it.
He refused to believe that Bai Zihan’s speed could actually surpass his own.
How could this be possible?
He was a Golden Immortal!
And he was using a High Heaven Grade movement technique!
The Demonic Ghost Step had already pushed his speed to an unimaginable level.
Yet Bai Zihan—
He was actually faster!
"Impossible!"
Mo Zun roared.
He raised his saber once again.
Boom!!!
His Golden Immortal aura erupted violently.
The surrounding space trembled under his terrifying pressure.
"Die!"
Mo Zun swung his saber.
Slash!!!
A terrifying saber light tore through the heavens.
But Bai Zihan simply moved.
Whoosh!
His figure vanished from Mo Zun’s sight.
The saber struck nothing but empty air.
Mo Zun immediately turned around.
Slash!!!
Another saber strike followed.
Bai Zihan casually stepped aside.
The saber passed inches beside his body.
Mo Zun’s expression became even more furious.
"Stand still!"
He roared.
Slash! Slash!
His saber swept across the battlefield.
Slash! Slash! Slash!
Mo Zun attacked with all his strength.
He continuously activated the Demonic Ghost Step, appearing from different directions and launching attacks at Bai Zihan.
Yet—
None of them could touch Bai Zihan.
Bai Zihan’s figure continuously flickered across the battlefield.
Sometimes he appeared in front of Mo Zun.
Sometimes beside him.
Sometimes behind him.
And sometimes, he seemed to have simply disappeared.
Mo Zun’s attacks became increasingly frantic.
"Get back here!"
He roared furiously.
Slash!!!
Another saber descended.
Bai Zihan tilted his body slightly.
The saber passed directly beside him.
Then—
Swish!!!
A sword light flashed.
Mo Zun’s pupils suddenly contracted.
"What—"
Slash!!!
Bai Zihan’s sword tore across Mo Zun’s abdomen.
A deep wound instantly appeared.
Blood sprayed into the air.
"ARGH!"
Mo Zun’s face twisted in pain.
He immediately retreated.
Grit!
He clenched his teeth tightly.
A sharp pain surged through his abdomen.
Blood continuously flowed from the wound.
But Mo Zun barely cared about the injury.
His eyes were fixed on Bai Zihan.
His expression was filled with disbelief.
"How..."
His breathing became heavy.
"How are you even faster than me?"
He had not seen the attack coming.
Before he could react, he was already injured.
Mo Zun’s hands trembled slightly.
"No..."
His eyes became bloodshot.
"I refuse to believe this!"
Boom!!!
His aura erupted once again.
"I will drag you down with me even if I have to die!"
Mo Zun roared.
He raised his saber.
However, Bai Zihan simply looked at him.
"Do you even have the ability to do that?"
The moment his voice fell—
Whoosh!!!
Bai Zihan disappeared.
Mo Zun’s pupils contracted.
He immediately looked behind.
Nothing.
He couldn’t see Bai Zihan.
Then—
Swish!!!
A sword light suddenly flashed across his body.
Slash!!!
Another wound appeared.
Mo Zun didn’t even see where the attack came from.
His body staggered.
Blood sprayed into the air once again.
"What is this?!"
Mo Zun’s face was filled with shock.
Bai Zihan appeared several meters away.
He stood there calmly, his sword still in his hand.
His expression remained indifferent.
It was as though he hadn’t even exerted himself.
To Mo Zun, Bai Zihan was like a fleeting shadow.
Coming and going as he pleased.
Impossible to catch.
Impossible to touch.
If the Bai Zihan he was seeing was merely some kind of deception, then the pain from those sword strikes was far too real.
He looked down at the blood flowing from his abdomen.
His expression became extremely ugly.
"This can’t be..."
Meanwhile, the Demonic Cultivators who were once full of confidence were becoming increasingly restless.
Disbelief appeared on their faces.
None of them could understand what they were witnessing.
"What’s happening?"
"How can this be?"
"Leader Mo Zun is a Golden Immortal!"
"How can he not even touch Bai Zihan?"
Their voices became increasingly anxious.
They had originally believed that this battle was already as good as won.
After all, Mo Zun had broken through to the Golden Immortal Realm.
Even the strongest member of the Bai Clan shouldn’t have been able to fight against a Golden Immortal in their opinion.
Yet now, reality was completely different.
Their invincible leader couldn’t even defeat a brat from the Bai Clan.
No!
It was even worse than that.
Mo Zun was losing. And he was losing pathetically.
He couldn’t even touch Bai Zihan.
Bai Zihan had already had several opportunities to kill Mo Zun.
If he truly wanted to end this battle, Mo Zun would have already been dead.
But Bai Zihan had deliberately held back.
Before killing Mo Zun, there was one thing he needed to know.
Luo Qing!
He needed to know why Mo Zun had kidnapped her.
More importantly—
Was she still alive?
Bai Zihan refused to believe that these Demonic Cultivators would risk their lives simply to kidnap Luo Qing from the Bai Clan estate and then kill her.
There had to be another reason.
Bai Zihan looked coldly at the furious Mo Zun.
"Feel like talking now?"
Those words immediately made Mo Zun’s face turn red with humiliation.
His expression became even more furious.
"BAI ZIHAN!"
He gritted his teeth.
"Don’t think you’ve already won!"
The moment his voice fell—
Whoosh!!!
Bai Zihan’s figure disappeared.
Before Mo Zun could react—
BANG!!!
Bai Zihan suddenly appeared above him.
His foot slammed directly onto Mo Zun’s head.
BOOM!!!
Mo Zun’s entire body was smashed into the ground.
The earth beneath him violently collapsed.
Dust and debris exploded in every direction.
Bai Zihan remained standing above him.
His foot was firmly planted on Mo Zun’s head.
Mo Zun’s face was pressed against the ground.
The humiliation was unbearable.
"I’LL KILL YOU!"
BOOM!!!
Mo Zun erupted with terrifying Immortal Qi.
His entire body shook violently as he tried to break free. But Bai Zihan had already disappeared.
Whoosh!
In the blink of an eye, he appeared several meters away.
Mo Zun immediately rose from the ground.
His hair was disheveled.
His clothes were covered in dust.
His face was filled with fury and humiliation.
"Dammit! Dammit! How is this possible?!"
His voice trembled with rage.
He was losing his mind.
How could this be happening?
How could someone in his twenties—
Someone who was merely at the Immortal Ascension Realm—
Completely overpower him?
He was Mo Zun!
The leader of the Demonic Cultivators!
A Golden Immortal!
He had spent countless years cultivating.
He had endured unimaginable hardships.
And after finally breaking through to the Golden Immortal Realm, he had believed that he would become the undisputed overlord of the Eastern Region.
He had believed that no one could stop him.
Yet now, a young man barely in his twenties was standing before him.
And he couldn’t even touch him.
Mo Zun stared at Bai Zihan with bloodshot eyes.
His eyes were filled with intense killing intent.
The humiliation he had suffered had completely enraged him.
He had never imagined that he would be forced into such a miserable state by someone in the Immortal Ascension Realm.
His pride as a Golden Immortal had been completely trampled.
But he still had not given up.
A sinister smile slowly appeared on Mo Zun’s face.
"Bai Zihan..."
His voice was filled with killing intent.
"Don’t think I only have one trump card."
Mo Zun’s killing intent surged into the heavens.
"You will regret making me use this!"
