One palm, just one palm, and Lin Xuan defeated the Ye Nation's Duke, who was also in the Royal Duke realm!
So, is this how the powerful in the Royal Duke realm fight?
Among peers, the Ye Nation's Royal Duke, even with just one move from Lin Xuan, couldn't get through.
"So powerful..."
Looking at the figure in white robes floating in the void, already transcendent in temperament, he now seemed like a god in the eyes of the people!
Now, people finally understood what it meant for the youngest Royal Duke-level Elder in Shentian Sect to be at such a level!
The residual force of the overwhelming palm on the void had slowly dissipated. However, there were many drops of blood raining down around, and blood mist filled the air...
Those were...
The Ye Nation's experts who had come with the Ye Nation's Duke! Everyone's attention had been attracted by the Ye Nation's Duke covered in Lin Xuan's endless palm power. They just now noticed that under Lin Xuan's palm, they had all become lost souls!
They were dead!
"Gulp!"
Many people swallowed hard. Those were members of the Ye Nation's royal family! Elder Lin Xuan dared to kill them just like that?!
Although they might not be core members of the Ye Nation's royal family, killing them would undoubtedly provoke the wrath of the royal family!
In the hearts of many, hesitation and fear began to emerge.
They had never expected that the initiation ceremony for accepting disciples into Shentian Sect would encounter such a situation.
If Shentian Sect clashed with the Ye Nation's royal family, what should they do?
Although Shentian Sect was powerful, with several Royal Duke-level experts, and Sect Master Shen Wufeng had the pinnacle power of the Royal Duke realm, they were also well aware that the Ye Nation's Emperor had the strength of the Human King realm!
That was a realm beyond the Royal Duke!
"Cough... cough, cough!"
A cough brought their thoughts back.
They looked in that direction and saw the Ye Nation's Duke lying on the ground, continuously coughing up blood, or rather, essence blood! At this point, his face had lost all color! Lin Xuan's strike had already injured him fundamentally!
"Lin Xuan! How dare you! Aren't you afraid of the wrath of our Ye Nation's Emperor?!"
Using his last bit of strength, the Ye Nation's Duke, now in a miserable state, no longer had the arrogance he had before. All that was left was a battered appearance!
He was a Royal Duke-level expert, and he didn't want to die! He could only mention the Ye Nation's Emperor in an attempt to make Lin Xuan stop.
At this moment, he didn't even care about stopping the initiation ceremony. Now, he just wanted to survive!
Lin Xuan slowly raised his palm and looked at him. "I've already given you a chance to live, but you didn't cherish it."
Lin Xuan had only given two choices: leave or die!
Since the Duke didn't leave and even dared to attack him, he would have to pay the corresponding price.
Lin Xuan knew the Ye Nation's Emperor was powerful, but since he was determined to accept Ye Hao as his disciple today, he would inevitably incur the wrath of the Ye Nation's royal family, no matter what. In that case, why spare the Duke before him?
Didn't letting him leave today mean that the wrath of the Ye Nation would not come later? Of course not!
"Lin Xuan, our Ye Nation's Emperor is more powerful than you can imagine! If you stop now, you might still have a chance!"
The Ye Nation's Duke, lying on the ground, roared with his last bit of strength.
"Buzzing!"
Lin Xuan pondered for a moment. The spiritual power in his hand gathered, and gusts of sharp wind blades were instantly sent towards the Ye Nation's Duke.
"Lin Xuan, how dare you!"
The Ye Nation's Duke sensed the approach of death and hurriedly shouted.
However, it was too late to take back the released spiritual power. How could it be recovered?
His heart was beating violently, and he completely understood that Lin Xuan was a madman! He really dared to kill him!
Was this person Lin Xuan not afraid of the Ye Nation's Emperor behind him? He was just a Royal Duke at the early stage!
"No!"
The spiritual power attack quickly arrived. The Ye Nation's Duke was sweating profusely, and with a crack, he bit his finger and erupted with a mysterious power from his blood!
Swish!
Only to see the Ye Nation's Duke, after this action, suddenly turned into a stream of light, drawing exclamations from the crowd!
"Bloodline secret technique?"
Lin Xuan's expression changed slightly. The Ye Nation's Duke's method was a bloodline secret technique, trying to use this technique to escape!
He snorted, "You want to escape? Can you escape? Since you want to stay, then stay!"
Boom!
As he waved his hand, another surging divine light shot straight into the void and disappeared with a bang!
Ordinary secret techniques couldn't escape under the power of the Supreme Immortal Bone. If Lin Xuan hadn't fully integrated the Supreme Immortal Bone, this Ye Nation's Duke wouldn't even have had the opportunity to use the secret technique under the pressure of the same realm's coercion!
"Ah!!!"
From the void, a miserable scream echoed.
"Lin Xuan! Lin Xuan! You can't kill me! I am a member of the Ye Nation's royal family! You can't kill me!"
A wail of despair came from the void!
Even the elders of the inner sect of Shentian Sect, who were shocked by Lin Xuan's strength, suddenly woke up. Lin Xuan was really going to kill him! While amazed at Lin Xuan's strength, they hurriedly shouted:
"Elder Lin, you can't!"
Boom!
The next moment, a burst of blood mist exploded in front!
The Ye Nation's Royal Duke, who had just used a secret technique to escape, even his bones were not left intact!
Splash!
A burst of blood rain fell, staining countless grasses and woods with bloodstains. The entire land under the void turned blood-red!
The grasses and woods swayed in the wind, as if mourning the fall of the Ye Nation's Duke in the Royal Duke realm.
In the eyes of the people, the scene before them conveyed a clear message:
A Ye Nation's Royal Duke-level expert had fallen!
Moreover, under Lin Xuan's hand, this Royal Duke from the Ye Nation's royal family didn't even leave a name! In death, he had become a nameless figure!
"The life lamp! The life lamp has extinguished! There... there's a Royal Duke... fallen!"
At this moment, tens of thousands of miles away in the Ye Nation's imperial palace, in the ancestral hall!
Not only did they enshrine their ancestors, but there was also a hall where hundreds of lamps flickered!
These were the life lamps of the core members of the Ye Nation's royal family. Each core member would leave a trace of their essence blood, which would be infused into the life lamp. Once they died, their life lamp would be extinguished!
Today, the caretaker of the life lamps watched as the topmost one, representing the Royal Duke-level expert of the royal family, flickered slightly and then went out completely!

I am going to go much further ahead with the story on my patreon, so if you could support me there please go to https://patreon.com/MangaTacos
I also have plans to turn this into a manhua which I will be funding with the monthly donations I get from Patreon. My goal is to reach about 100 patrons to get the artist started. The more patrons I get, the more artists I will be able to hire and get the story into a manhua much quicker.
I am also writing a light novel series which is more of a Shounen style story. I hope to see you all there!
