Offensively, he possesses the punch that shattered the formation and severely damaged the Xuan Yin Cocoon; defensively, he has an incredibly strong physique that can withstand the Nascent Soul Blade Qi.
Either of these two things alone would be astonishing enough, but for them to appear simultaneously in a Foundation Establishment cultivator?!
Monster... monster!
For the first time, the emotion called "fear" welled up in Jiejian's heart.

Chapter 144 The Gathering of Prodigies Concludes
Taking advantage of Jiejian's momentary lapse in concentration, Ling Suxin and Li Zhaoning readjusted their stances and launched an attack, unleashing streaks of sword energy and spear light towards Jiejian.
It shot away.
Faced with the two's offensive, Jiejian could only continue to focus most of his mind and true energy on the defense of the "Mysterious Yin Cocoon".
The deafening roar continued, the cocoon trembled violently, and the light dimmed at a visible speed, clearly indicating that it was under tremendous pressure.
Under the cover of Ling Suxin and Li Zhaoning, Su Mu once again approached Jie Jian!
"Don't come any closer!" Jiejian was filled with shock and rage. Her mind raced, and the two eerie curved blades emitted a shrill shriek, enveloped in a dense, deathly aura.
They slashed at Su Mu from the left and right, forming a scissor-like pattern!
This was a furious strike from a Nascent Soul cultivator, far more powerful than the previous sword light!
However, faced with this deadly combined attack that could instantly dismember a Golden Core cultivator, Su Mu neither dodged nor evaded!
A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and his true energy condensed into a protective aura. He crossed his arms and thrust them forward, intending to directly confront the Nascent Soul evil spirit.
刃!
"clang!!!"
A deafening roar, like the thunder of a great bell, exploded! The curved blade slashed fiercely at Su Mu's crossed arms as he tried to block! As expected, blood and flesh splattered...
Instead of flying, sparks flew everywhere, producing a piercing sound of metal clashing!
The sharp blade easily tore through the sleeve of his shirt at the back, yet the sinister blade only left two shallow cuts on the surface of his skin.
White marks!
"what?!"
What kind of monstrous physique is this?! A Foundation Establishment cultivator, yet his physical strength rivals that of a Nascent Soul stage Body Refinement expert?!
Boundless fear, like a torrent of ice water, instantly engulfed the cocoon of tribulation! She finally understood that this young man before her could not be judged by ordinary standards!
If I continue this entanglement, I will surely die!
The instinct for survival overwhelmed everything; she could no longer care about the mission or her master's orders. With a scream, she controlled the "Mysterious Yin Cocoon"...
We must escape!
"Want to leave? It's too late!"
Su Mu snorted coldly. Just as Jie Jian was about to move, Su Mu's left hand shot out like lightning, his five fingers like hooks, grabbing her with unparalleled precision.
He grabbed the back of one of the strange curved knives!
"Let go!" Jiejian was terrified and desperately tried to retract the scimitar by channeling his true energy.
The curved blade was connected to her mind and spirit, like an extension of her arm. Now, Su Mu gripped it tightly, as if her lifeline had been seized, preventing her from breaking free.
Got it!
Just then, Su Mu made a move that surprised everyone! His left hand, gripping the scimitar, actually dispelled the layer of...
Incredibly resilient protective aura!
In an instant, the incomparably sharp and malevolent sword energy, like thousands of steel needles, pierced his unprotected palm! Blood gushed out immediately.
In an instant, his entire left hand was stained red, and the dripping blood flowed down the blade, a shocking sight!
"Mr. Su! Mu'er!" Ling Suxin and Li Zhaoning exclaimed in shock at the sight, their hearts leaping into their throats!
However, Su Mu didn't even frown. The true energy that had been dissipating from his left hand and his entire body was now being poured into his right hand, which was already poised to strike.
The essence of boxing lies in the "sacrifice" principle!
"break!"
Su Mu exhaled and let out a shout, his right fist slamming out powerfully! This punch landed squarely on the most vulnerable crack in the "Mysterious Yin Cocoon."
上I
"Boom!!!!!"
This time, the deafening roar far surpassed any before! The entire "Mysterious Yin Cocoon" shattered like porcelain being struck by a giant hammer, emitting a series of teeth-grinding cracking sounds!
Immediately following, amidst the desperate screams of the Cocoon of Tribulation, the "Mysterious Yin Cocoon," said to be unbreakable only by those at the Nascent Soul stage, exploded with a deafening roar! It transformed into countless black...
The fragments of color vanished without a trace!
The cocoon bursts! The true form of the Cocoon is completely exposed to the air! Her aura is weak, blood trickles from the corner of her mouth, and her eyes are filled with boundless fear and despair.
Believe it!
Jiejian desperately tried to summon back the curved blade that Su Mu's bloodied left hand was still holding tightly, and to use it as a shield in front of her.
But she was fast, and Su Mu was even faster! That bloodied and mangled left hand suddenly erupted with terrifying power! Its five fingers tightened fiercely like red-hot iron pincers.
Then he suddenly exerted force with his left arm!
"Crack! Puff!"
A sharp, piercing cracking sound and the splattering of blood rang out! That eerie curved blade, connected to her very being, was actually forcibly...
He crushed it with brute force and tore it off the cocoon!
"Pfft!" The Cocoon of Calamity was struck again, and another mouthful of blood gushed out!
==================================================
Page 318:
Su Mu's fist, without any further obstruction, fell like a meteorite, slamming hard into the remaining, hastily raised arm that was trying to block!
"Crack! Boom!!"
The sound of arm bones shattering and the dull thud of a fist piercing flesh rang out almost simultaneously! Jiejian let out an extremely shrill scream, her entire body like a broken...
Flying backwards like a sack
She crashed heavily to the ground, rolling more than ten times before coming to a stop. Countless bones and muscles were broken throughout her body; she no longer possessed even a trace of the power of a Nascent Soul cultivator.
wind?
At this moment, she was curled up in the dust, trembling, with blood mixed with pieces of internal organs constantly spilling from her mouth.
The look in his eyes as he approached Su Mu was filled with primal fear, as if he were looking at a demon god of death crawling out of hell!
"Please, please don't hit me! I've already begged for mercy, please spare my life!"
Faced with absolute power and the threat of death, all loyalty to the Void Transformation Immortal Venerable and the pride of the newly born race vanished.
All that remained was the most primal instinct for survival.
Su Mu stopped in front of her, looking down at her with icy eyes: "Speak. What exactly is your purpose in infiltrating the Heavenly Pride Society?"
seek?"
Jiejian hurriedly hissed, "Yes, yes, it's the Lord's order. First, to secretly observe... the true strength of the human race's prodigies... Second, to find... to find an opportunity..."
"At any cost. Assassinate you two siblings."
She recounted, in fits and starts, the strange movements of the demon clan in Linhe Town, the ambush in the peach blossom forest, and even the elaborate schemes behind the upcoming Heavenly Pride Gathering, all in detail, to Su Muzhi.
The previous inferences are largely consistent.
"What is the origin of the Void Transformation Immortal Venerable?"
Mentioning this name, a flicker of fanaticism and awe reflexively flashed in Jiejian's cloudy eyes, as if an instinctive program had been activated.
Mechanical answer:
"The Immortal Venerable of the Void Transformation is our creator... She created us with supreme secret techniques. We are superior to humans and demons."
Species
"Hmph! Excellent?" Hearing this from a distance, Su Zhixiao, whose condition had slightly improved, couldn't help but sneer, "You, this supposedly superior species, are still..."
Being trampled underfoot by my brother like a dead dog? What's there to be proud of?
As if its most sensitive nerve had been pricked, Jiejian struggled to retort: "Little girl, what do you know! I have already ascended to [a higher level] in just five years since my birth."
The Yuan Tuo realm! You, on the other hand, have cultivated for over ten years to barely reach the Golden Core stage. The superiority of one over the other is crystal clear!
"It's nothing more than a realm forcibly built up by plundering and devouring the cultivation foundation of demons." Su Mu exerted a slight force with his feet, crushing the calamity...
Cocoon let out a miserable howl and coldly demanded, "Why would the demon race collude with you?"
Recalling Su Mu's terrifying physique and astonishing strength, Jie Jian felt a pang of guilt regarding her own superior "statements" and dared not argue further.
Because...because her master had already secretly taken control of the demon race.
Everyone's expression changed upon hearing this! Li Zhaoning and Su Mu exchanged glances, instantly realizing that the overthrow of the Fox Clan's throne more than a decade ago was indeed due to this secret.
The mastermind behind the Immortal Transformation!
"One last question," Su Mu said in an icy tone, "why are you so determined to hunt down Xiaoxiao and me?"
"That's because..." Jie Quan was about to speak when his voice suddenly stopped!
Immediately, the expression on her entire face became extremely distorted and stiff, and her eyes instantly lost their luster, becoming empty and eerie.
An aged, dry, and resentful female voice was suddenly forced out of her throat, completely different from her original voice!
"Why do you think I would let that piece of trash tell you? Hmph! What happened just now was nothing but trivial matters."
"If you know, then you know; it's harmless."
"The Void Transformation Immortal Venerable?" Su Mu frowned slightly.
"Indeed! No wonder he's her child, just as utterly annoying as his mother!" The aged woman's voice was filled with deep-seated hatred. "If it weren't for her repeated..."
"You've interfered, but my grand plan has already been accomplished!"
Upon hearing this, Su Mu paused slightly, then a look of understanding flashed in his eyes.
He wasn't entirely unaware of this—ever since he transmigrated here, he had vaguely sensed that his connection with this world was far from ordinary.
It now seems highly likely that he was originally born in this world, and was later sent to "Blue Star" for some reason, and then returned in his original form.
All of this was probably done by his mother, whom he had never met, to help him escape the pursuit of the Void Transformation Immortal Venerable.
"Where is my mother now?" He suppressed his turbulent emotions and asked sharply, his killing intent almost tangible.
"Hmph! She's incredibly skilled, so naturally I can't get close to her! But you shouldn't even think about seeing her easily!"
"Instead of worrying about that woman, you should worry more about your own life! I will not let this go!" —Void Transformation Immortal Venerable's voice
It is full of malice and threats.
"Noisy!"
Seeing that he couldn't get any useful information out of her, a cold glint flashed in Su Mu's eyes, and he no longer hesitated!
The right fist, imbued with overwhelming killing intent and powerful true energy, crashed down and slammed into the crown of the head of the cocoon!
"Pfft!"
==================================================
Page 319:
The remnant of the Cocoon convulsed violently and then fell completely silent. The possessing divine consciousness also vanished instantly, like a severed thread.
With the death of the Cocoon, the dark purple array that enveloped the entire area completely collapsed, turning into wisps of black smoke and dissipating.
The bright sunshine once again bathed the site of the fierce battle.
