# Chapter 904: Annihilation with Bare Hands
The three major powers had just begun their united siege—or rather, it hadn't even truly started—when it collapsed in an instant.
The terrifying shockwave forced everyone else to the edge of the Sea God Platform. The seven kingdom powers were trembling uncontrollably, their hearts filled with sheer terror. The strongest of the seven kingdoms, the Fenghuang God Sect, ranked among the Four Sacred Grounds, along with the Huangji Sacred Domain and the Supreme Sea Palace—the top two in overall strength—had all of their members trapped in agonizing demon poison. Their grand elders and venerable ones were barely holding on, gasping for breath, their profound veins clearly corroded. Two out of the three great powers had already lost all combat capability, unable to even raise a finger.
As for Yun Che…
Not only was he unscathed, but he had even toyed with Xuanyuan Wentian's son, Xuanyuan Wen Dao, and crushed him into a limp mess with a single foot. He was now leisurely standing in midair, controlling the lifeline of Xuanyuan Wentian's only son, blocking the path of the Heaven's Calamity Realm's forces.
The Heaven's Calamity Realm had dispatched over ten thousand troops this time, and on the Sea God Platform alone stood more than three thousand experts. The weakest among them were at the Divine Tribulation Realm, with over three hundred Divine Lord Realm experts, including the four Executioners and several Execution Envoys. Their lineup was so powerful and vast that just releasing their auras was enough to make countless people feel as if their souls would shatter. Yet Yun Che stood alone before them all, with Xuanyuan Wen Dao's head in his hand—making not a single Heaven's Calamity expert dare to make a move.
"Brother Yun!"
"Brother-in-law!"
From below came the anxious voices of Feng Xue'er and Xia Yuanba. The long-suppressed Phoenix disciples finally vented their shock and ecstasy: "Heavens… Lord Yun is still alive… He's truly still alive!!"
"Am I seeing things? Lord Yun is not only alive, but he's even captured the young master of the Heaven's Calamity Realm!!"
"Heaven has blessed us!!"
Yun Che looked down and saw a truly vast number of people on the Sea God Platform. But there was no sign of Ling Yun, and in the seats of the Four Sacred Grounds, there were also many unfamiliar forces. It seemed that during his time in the Eternal Night Divine Kingdom, many things he didn't know about had happened… However, none of that mattered now.
"Yuanba." Yun Che looked at Xia Yuanba, who seemed to have aged more than ten years, and nodded. "Having lived under Xuanyuan Wentian's pursuit all this time… that's truly impressive."
"Heh… heheh…" Xia Yuanba laughed, his joy overflowing.
Yun Che held Xuanyuan Wen Dao's head in his hand, and indeed, Xuanyuan Wentian did not dare to make another reckless move. His eyes narrowed as he stared fixedly at Yun Che. Clearly, he had already sensed that Yun Che was different… vastly different.
"Yun Che, I truly admire you. If you had stayed in the Huan Yao Realm, you might have lived another ten days or half a month… but you're rushing here to die!"
"Die? Aren't you afraid your son will die before me?" Yun Che held Xuanyuan Wen Dao high. "This is your only son. If I crush him to death, if you want an heir, you'll have to produce another one… Oh no, I almost forgot. This body of yours was stolen from someone else. Even if you had more children, they'd all belong to someone else. That means, if I crush him to death, you, the so-called 'Celestial Venerable', will be completely without offspring. How pathetic and pitiful."
"You dare threaten me!" Xuanyuan Wentian's pupils swirled with black aura as his voice dropped completely.
"Heh, you're wrong. I wouldn't stoop to threatening you!"
Facing Xuanyuan Wentian's chilling yin energy and murderous intent, Yun Che let out a low laugh. Then he swung his arm and, under everyone's astonished gaze, threw Xuanyuan Wen Dao straight down… toward the Tian Wei Sword Domain.
Xuanyuan Bo rushed forward to catch Xuanyuan Wen Dao, still unable to believe that Yun Che would just throw away the only "lifeline" that could threaten Xuanyuan Wentian, handing it back to them.
Xuanyuan Wentian's gaze also tightened slightly.
"Take good care of your young master. Make absolutely sure he doesn't die." Yun Che crossed his arms in front of his chest, speaking with leisurely calm.
Yun Che's move caught everyone off guard, even the Tian Wei Sword Domain. Almost everyone thought Yun Che must be insane. Xuanyuan Bo, who had caught Xuanyuan Wen Dao, changed expression rapidly and said with a trembling voice: "Celestial Venerable, the young master is not in mortal danger, but… his profound veins have been crippled!"
"Yun Che, you have some nerve!" Xuanyuan Jue, seated in the Tian Jian Villa section, rose to his feet and roared: "Celestial Venerable, do not let this brat die an easy death. Make him wish he were dead!"
Xuanyuan Wentian slowly raised his hand. A pitch-black sword beam tore through the void and shot straight toward Yun Che.
"Yun Che, be careful!"
"Careful!"
"Dodge!!"
From the Fenghuang God Sect, Huangji Sacred Domain, and Supreme Sea Palace, urgent shouts rang out simultaneously. Though Xuanyuan Wentian's black sword beam seemed unremarkable, its terror was beyond their comprehension.
But Yun Che didn't move an inch. His hand flashed, and the black sword beam aimed at his throat was firmly caught in his palm. With a light squeeze of his hand, it disintegrated into a large cloud of black powder, vanishing without a trace.
"…"
Everyone's eyes bulged. Those who had been shouting were frozen in place, their voices stuck in their throats.
Xuanyuan Wentian's terrifying black sword beam—strong enough to nearly kill Qu Fengyi with a single strike—had been… annihilated by Yun Che's bare hands!?
"Hahahaha, hahahahaha!" Xuanyuan Wentian showed no surprise but instead burst into manic laughter. "Yun Che, every time I see you, you bring me surprises. This time is no exception!"
"Heh, don't speak too soon. What if an even bigger surprise comes later?" Yun Che replied with a smile.
"Brother Yun!" Below came Feng Xue'er's urgent voice.
Yun Che glanced down and flipped his left hand. A green light scattered down from the sky, enveloping everyone from the Fenghuang God Sect. Within just a few breaths, all the demon poison on the Phoenix disciples was purified. The pain on their faces disappeared, and their profound energy returned to normal. Every one of them stared at their own hands, unable to contain their excitement.
Yun Che's figure flickered. Bypassing Xuanyuan Wentian, he appeared before Xia Yuanba and Gu Cang True Person. He quickly pushed a pill into Xia Yuanba's mouth, then used a light of purification to cleanse the demon poison from Gu Cang True Person as well.
"Brother-in-law… brother-in-law…" Xia Yuanba called out twice. Though his injuries were severe, he was as happy as a child.
Xuanyuan Wentian did not stop him or turn around. His eyes gradually narrowed into extremely thin slits.
Seeing that Gu Cang True Person and everyone from the Fenghuang God Sect had fully recovered, the members of the Huangji Sacred Domain and Supreme Sea Palace, who were still suffering the cruel torment of demon poison, showed expressions of immense joy. The true persons and venerables there endured the agony of the poison and sent out pleading voices: "Palace Master Yun… please… remove the poison… for us…"
But Yun Che turned around, floated back into the air, and came to stand before Xuanyuan Wentian… completely ignoring the pleas from the Huangji Sacred Domain and Supreme Sea Palace.
