C44 Crushing the Treasure with His Bare Hands!

"Leave my body whole?"

A ghastly grin spread across the Cardioverter Ancestor's face, and he burst into uncontrollable laughter, as if he'd just heard the joke of the century.

He was a master of the Heavenly Talisman Realm. Even the Masters of the Celestial Gates would bow their heads in his presence, fearing to provoke this merciless fiend.

And here was this Houtian Realm upstart, the audacity was staggering.

"I've changed my mind. Simply killing you would be letting you off too easily."

The Cardioverter Ancestor produced a dark, unassuming long blade, eyeing Lu Yu with a chilling smirk.

The knife might have looked plain, but as the Cardioverter Ancestor brandished it, Meng Zhuyun gasped in alarm.

"The Heart Devouring Blade! Cardioverter Ancestor, you're actually going to use such a sacred weapon on a mere mortal? Have you no humanity?!" Meng Zhuyun cried out.

The Heart Devouring Blade.

That was the Cardioverter Ancestor's signature magic weapon.

Its power was formidable, but what was truly horrifying was the Cardioverter Ancestor's method of using it to inflict agony.

Once, a Master from the Celestial Gate crossed him, and the Cardioverter Ancestor used this very blade to slaughter every member of that Celestial Gate.

The Master himself had his heart pierced by the Heart Devouring Blade and endured excruciating pain for a full year, unable to live or die as he wished.

It was an agony beyond endurance.

Yet the Heart Devouring Blade could also imprison one's spirit, rendering the victim unable to summon any Spiritual Energy or even to move.

It wasn't until the Cardioverter Ancestor had other matters to attend to that he retracted the blade, and the Master finally perished.

Meng Zhuyun could already foresee the grim end. The Master from the Celestial Gate who had once provoked the Cardioverter Ancestor was at least a formidable Core Formation realm cultivator.

How could this mortal, barely at the first level of the Xiantian realm, hope to survive under the Heart Devouring Blade?

"You foolish mortal, if you're looking for someone to blame, blame your own arrogance for daring to defy me!"

With a sinister grin, the Cardioverter Ancestor exhaled onto the Heart Devouring Blade, which levitated and lunged straight for Lu Yu.

The attack was lightning-fast, leaving no room for reaction.

As the saber neared piercing Lu Yu's flesh, a glint of icy resolve sparked in his eyes.

"Do you really believe mortals can't kill you?!" With a fierce stomp, Lu Yu cracked the earth beneath him.

Crunch! A golden radiance burst from the fissure, enveloping Lu Yu.

His long sleeves billowed as if caught in a gale, fluttering while he stood unshakably, exuding an aura of quiet power.

The roar of a dragon reverberated, deafening all within earshot.

Stones tumbled from the cave walls as a formidable Qi surged forth.

Lu Yu reached out, seizing the Heart Devouring Saber in mid-flight.

Buzz, buzz, buzz—

The saber was firmly in Lu Yu's grasp, immobilized as if clamped in a vice.

"What?!"

Both Cardioverter and Meng Zhuyun gasped in disbelief.

It was inconceivable—a mere mortal had caught Cardioverter's renowned magical weapon with his bare hands!

Lu Yu appeared unfazed, his gaze fixed on Cardioverter. His voice, cold and dismissive, cut through the air, "Is that all you've got?"

Crack!

With a subtle twist, Lu Yu's hand induced a web of cracks to spread across the saber's blade.

The fissures widened under his increasing force until the Heart Devouring Saber was riddled with them.

With one final squeeze, the saber exploded into fragments, scattering with a crisp tinkling across the ground.

"Who do you think you are, setting up such a feeble trap?!" Lu Yu's eyes flashed with a piercing chill.
