Chapter 462: Chapter 461: The Unfortunate Brother-in-law

Qin Feng’s gaze was fixed on the brother-in-law’s every move. How could the man’s intentions possibly escape his notice?

’I won’t let you get your way!’

Qin Feng activated the glow on the Forbidden-Breaking Pearl, silently putting a hundred paces between himself and the brother-in-law.

He strained to maintain a distance of about two hundred paces from him.

This distance was safe enough to ensure he wouldn’t be instantly killed by the brother-in-law.

Qin Feng knew perfectly well how terrifying Martial Arts Giants were.

The gap between a Martial Arts Giant and those below that Realm was not something that could be easily bridged by so-called Divine Techniques or Treasures.

To put it bluntly, if he were to face the brother-in-law head-on, a Martial Arts Giant of that caliber would likely kill Qin Feng in a single blow.

’If I could master the Five Mountains Divine Secret Technique right now and break through to the Sea of Reincarnation Realm, perhaps I could contend with a Martial Arts Giant!’

As he considered this, Qin Feng swept his Divine Thought outwards and, dozens of yards overhead, found a Heavenly Gang Twenty Layers Prohibition—the Five Thunders Purgatory.

This was an extremely terrifying Thunder Prohibition, far more formidable than the Chaos Sky-breaking Divine Thunder from before.

Rampant Thunder Power tore through the Void, shattering every Prohibition in its path. It transformed the Void into an ocean of thunderbolts that came crashing down.

At that moment, the brother-in-law had just shattered a towering fire cloud with a single slash when he saw this new threat. His face darkened. With an upward stroke of his sword, a cold light filled the air.

A wave of sword light surged forth, and the Five Thunders Purgatory Prohibition—a force capable of easily wounding a Martial Arts Giant—instantly shattered.

"Hmph!"

Qin Feng watched this without a flicker of anxiety. The Divine Hall contained countless Prohibitions, an unimaginable number of which were even more tyrannical than the Heavenly Gang’s Twentieth Layer.

The brother-in-law might break one or two, but as long as he couldn’t escape the hall, he would eventually be ground down to his death.

At his thought, a black tornado swept in from the horizon.

The brother-in-law’s expression changed. With a muffled grunt, he unleashed another burst of sword light to cleave the Prohibition apart.

「An incense stick’s time later...」

RUMBLE!

Countless bolts of purple and azure lightning erupted. A sword beam, as white and cold as ice, ripped through the Void. A wretched figure flew out from within the storm of thunderbolts.

His clothes were in disarray. The crystal-forged shield on his arm shattered, its fragments falling to the ground as Ice Crystals with a series of CLANGS.

Staring at the shattered remains of his shield, the brother-in-law’s face was grim. His heart clenched, but more than pain, he felt a suffocating frustration and rage. He had lost count of how many powerful Prohibitions he had destroyed.

But he knew that if this went on, Qin Feng would eventually wear him down and kill him.

’Damned mutt! He only knows how to resort to these cheap tricks! If we were facing each other directly, I could make that little whelp beg for death with a single slash!’

The brother-in-law had never imagined he would find himself in such a predicament, cornered by a Star Sect disciple who hadn’t even reached the Sea of Reincarnation Realm.

Countless Treasures in his possession had been reduced to dust.

What baffled the brother-in-law the most was how his opponent could control so many Prohibitions. He was certain that even his own master, an Array Grandmaster, wouldn’t be capable of such a feat.

’This can’t go on. I have plenty of Elixirs, but I can’t absorb any Primordial Qi here to replenish my energy. If this continues, I’ll definitely die at the hands of this little bastard! I must find a way to kill him in a single strike!’

Although Martial Arts Strongmen were formidable, the brother-in-law had only just advanced to the rank of Martial Arts Giant. His nascent Secret Realm was crying out for nourishment, so he could only exert half of his true power at best.

In the distance, Qin Feng maintained his position over two hundred paces away, unhurried and steady. He intended to wear down this young, Demon Level Martial Arts Giant and kill him, bit by agonizing bit.

His mind made up, the brother-in-law acted without hesitation, pulling out an ancient Stone Talisman.

A wisp of Void Power flowed within the Stone Talisman.

With his Divine Thought, Qin Feng’s command of the Ten Thousand Treasures Array Activation Technique was effortless. He himself seemed to have become the very nexus for all the Prohibitions in the Divine Hall.

Just then, Qin Feng’s expression changed.

Two hundred paces away, without a sound, the brother-in-law’s figure vanished.

’It’s Space Travel! He has a Void Ancient Talisman, a Boundary-Breaking Talisman, or some other kind of Spatial Treasure!’ Qin Feng’s eyes swept the area, a peculiar glint appearing within them.

Within his Chaos Celestial Secret Realm, his Chaos Tree seedling, a scion of the Void Element Divine-Level Spiritual Root, sent out an invisible pulse.

Qin Feng’s soul merged with the pulse, and he instantly discovered something.

An invisible figure was traversing a path through the Void. Its destination: a point three feet above Qin Feng’s head.

’You’re serving yourself up on a platter. If you had just hunkered down and relied on your Cultivation, you might have escaped. But no, you had to take a gamble, using a Spatial Treasure to pierce the Void and assassinate me. You think you can kill me in one blow? You’re digging your own grave!’

Ever since he obtained the Chaos Tree seedling, a Void Element Divine-Level Spiritual Root, most Void Element Divine Abilities had become useless against him.

Qin Feng had personally nurtured this Void Element Chaos Tree, and it contained his own essence brand. While he couldn’t yet unleash the true marvels of this Divine-Level Spiritual Root, using it to perceive disturbances in the surrounding Void was child’s play.

The brother-in-law’s decision to use a Spatial Treasure to traverse the Void for an assassination attempt was a fatal miscalculation!

His Divine Thought locked onto the point in the Void three feet above his head.

A vicious glint appeared at the corner of his mouth. Qin Feng poured his entire Cultivation into the Beiming Divine Water Sword. Within his body, ten waves of the Primordial Tide roared and fused into one.

The figure moved with incredible speed. In the span of two breaths, it reached the exit point in the Void, ready to tear through space and attack at any moment.

"Tenth Sword of Primordial Tide Extinction!"

With a seemingly light slash, his mind reached a state of supreme focus. In that trance-like state, Qin Feng felt as if he had become the Golden Divine General he once witnessed in Feipeng Hall. He activated the imprint of that single, ultimate slash stored in his memory. His sword cut forth—a slash that could shatter mountains, blast apart oceans, and annihilate stars. The Primordial Tide surged. All ten waves fused, converging their entire power into a single, infinitesimal point.

BANG!

The Void shattered like glass, and a black hole appeared. The lingering Sword Intent from the slash plunged into the black hole, its momentum unchecked. With a deafening roar, the entire black hole erupted in a cataclysmic explosion.

The brother-in-law was just emerging from his spatial passage. He appeared right in the path of the black hole’s explosion. He was like a mouse in its burrow when a bomb is shoved inside; his face went deathly pale with terror.

’How could he know the exit point of my Void-Breaking Talisman was right here?!’ His mind went numb.

Through the raging black hole, dozens of yards away, he could still see Qin Feng’s eerie smile.

Then, an irresistible explosive force from within the black hole slammed into his body.

The invisible layer of Spatial Power protecting him shattered instantly. CRACK! A fissure appeared on the Void Ancient Talisman in his hand, and a moment later, it burst apart.

His face contorted in horror. In a panic, the brother-in-law frantically pulled out one priceless defensive Supreme Treasure after another, trying to withstand the force of the Void explosion and find another way out.

But the Void storm was simply too terrifying. Not a single one of his Supreme Treasures could withstand its power for even the span of a breath.

"I can’t accept this!" A flash of bitter resentment appeared in his eyes. In the next moment, he was overwhelmed by an unstoppable spatial storm.

The Endless Void is an incomparably violent place without any concept of time, filled with unfathomable crises. Anyone swept into a Void storm, even a Demon God, would face almost certain death.

The brother-in-law was just that unlucky. Qin Feng happened to possess the Chaos Tree seedling, a Void Element Divine-Level Spiritual Root. This allowed Qin Feng to find the flaw in his use of the Void-Breaking Talisman, shatter the Void with a single blow, and cast him into the Endless Void.

Watching this unfold, Qin Feng was confident that no matter how many life-saving treasures the brother-in-law possessed, his life was now forfeit to the spatial storm.
