Ling Xi's figure, as if stepping out of an ink painting, silently appeared beside Fatty Wang.
She still wore an ordinary cyan dress, her features delicate and elegant, her aura peaceful. However, her clear eyes currently harbored an icy sharpness.
This sudden scene caused the entire battlefield to come to a standstill.
Almost at the same time, the various cultivators hiding in the dark, spying on this place with their divine senses, were shaken to their cores, as if struck by an invisible heavy hammer!
A... another one?! A wave of divine sense transmitted an unbelievable fluctuation.
Heavenly Realm?! Another Heavenly Realm expert! She actually managed to casually repel Shadowless's sure-kill strike?! Another divine sense was filled with horror.
What is going on today?! Such heaven-defying monsters are rarely seen even in ten thousand years, yet now they are popping out one after another as if they cost nothing?!
Battle Asura and Sword in White are already shocking enough. This cyan-clad woman... her previous move seemed even more effortless than the first two! When did the Eastern Region harbor so many hidden true dragons?!
Who is she?! Why have we never heard of her? Is she also here for the secret token? Now... the situation is completely chaotic!
Chaotic divine senses intertwined in the dark, full of shock, fear, and an even deeper layer of dread.
Ling Xi's entrance, with its incomprehensible manner and effect, brought a far stronger impact to all the onlookers than when Xiao Ruobai and Fang Hanyu appeared!
Shadowless stabilized his figure several zhang away. The astonishment on his face, which usually resembled ten-thousand-year-old ice, slowly faded, replaced by extreme solemnity and scrutiny.
He stared fixedly at Ling Xi, his voice dry and cold: Who are you?
He could feel that the casual finger strike just now contained pure and majestic power, and the timing was grasped to the absolute peak of perfection. What was even more terrifying was that he had completely failed to detect this woman's existence beforehand!
Ling Xi did not answer him. She merely glanced at him indifferently. That gaze was calm and rippleless, yet it made a cold-blooded killer like Shadowless feel an inexplicable chill, as if he had been apathetically swept over by some supreme existence.
Xiao Ruobai looked at the familiar cyan dress and profile, instantly reacting. Although her appearance had changed, he would absolutely not mistake her.
Third... Third Junior Sister?! Ling Xi?!
To think that Master actually let Ling Xi descend the mountain as well, and her strength had advanced to such a degree!
A flash of understanding also crossed Fang Hanyu's eyes. His tense mind relaxed slightly, and he gave a slight nod in Ling Xi's direction. Everything was understood without words.
Feeling their gazes, Ling Xi slightly tilted her head and gave a gentle nod to her two senior brothers.
At this moment, the one most shocked was none other than Fatty Wang.
Having narrowly escaped death, his chubby face was deathly pale. He slumped on the ground, panting heavily, his entire body drenched in cold sweat.
Looking up at this unfamiliar cyan-clad figure, that cold yet peaceful aura actually made him feel an unprecedented sense of security.
The shock of surviving a calamity, coupled with this sudden protection, especially seeing that his eldest and second brothers knew her...
A feeling of being cherished, something he had never experienced before, welled up in his heart. It made his nose sour, and tears flowed uncontrollably. Choking back sobs, he said, M-many thanks for saving my life! Never... no one has ever been this good to me before...
Just as Fatty Wang was choking out his thanks, Venerable Withered Bone recovered from his extreme shock.
Venerable Withered Bone's shriveled lips parted slightly, his cloudy eyes nailed dead onto Ling Xi.
Having lived for nearly a thousand years, his will was already as firm as a boulder. But at this moment, an almost absurd feeling gripped him.
One Heavenly Realm... and another Heavenly Realm! That halberd-wielding brat was fighting more bravely as the battle went on, his aura still climbing!
That swordsman's sword intent reached the profound, unfathomably deep!
And now, this cyan-clad woman... her casual finger strike just now actually made Shadowless's tricky and vicious sure-kill blow, which was enough to heavily injure someone of the same realm, vanish without a trace like a clay ox entering the sea!
His throat went dry, and his voice sounded as if it were ground from a grinding wheel, carrying a tremor of disbelief: Has this world gone mad?! Such heaven-defying monsters... it's hard to produce even one in ten thousand years... how could they spring up like bamboo shoots after a rain today... three of them popping out at once?!
Beside him, Murong Qiu gripped his sword until his knuckles turned white. He muttered absentmindedly, his thousand years of pride in the Way of the Sword crushed to dust at this moment.
The potential displayed by these three young people before his eyes made him feel a profound sense of powerlessness and despair.
Underneath his mask, the Shadowless Sect Master's complexion was extremely ugly. The feeling of his strike being easily devoured just now left his heart palpitating.
He spoke again hoarsely, attempting to probe her background: Just who is Your Excellency? With such cultivation, you shouldn't be a nobody!
Ling Xi's gaze remained calm. She didn't even linger on him for a second longer, as if he were merely an insignificant stumbling block.
This absolute disregard made the aura around Shadowless grow even colder.
Extreme dread flashed through Venerable Withered Bone's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by an even deeper madness.
He hissed: Hand over the secret token! This old man can swear an inner demon oath to let you leave! Otherwise, even if it means my soul perishes and my dao vanishes today, I will drag you down with me!
This was already a concession. He truly did not want to fight to the death with these three unfathomable monsters.
Hearing this, Xiao Ruobai laughed wildly. Pointing his battle halberd from afar, he spoke with awe-inspiring dominance: It's no longer a matter of you letting us leave, but a matter of whether you can leave!
What a joke! Do you really think we are afraid of you?!
Venerable Withered Bone was thoroughly enraged. He roared, and the death aura around him churned like boiling water. His originally withered body erupted with a terrifying aura as he actually began to burn his scarce remaining source blood essence!
Take them down, search their souls and seize their spirits! Perhaps we can also glimpse a trace of the profound mysteries! Otherwise, in another ten years, you and I will both be nothing but a handful of yellow earth! What else is there to lose?!
His emaciated body erupted with a terrifying aura as he lunged at Xiao Ruobai once again.
The Nine Netherworld Yellow Springs Finger was unleashed at full power. The finger radiance became more solid, and a deathly silent aura permeated the air, as if trying to turn this entire realm into a domain of death!
Murong Qiu also recovered from his initial shock.
That old ghost Withered Bone might still be able to drag out his feeble existence using the Netherworld Escape Art, but my, Murong Qiu's, sword heart is already tainted, and my path of the Dao is broken!
Having offended three monsters with such monstrous backgrounds, if I cannot seize the secret token today to exchange for that sliver of survival, even though the world is vast, how will there be any place for me in the future?!
Once this thought arose, it grew like an inner demon, instantly swallowing all his hesitation.
A trace of near-mad ruthlessness flashed in Murong Qiu's eyes. His originally clear sword intent suddenly became murky and dark. He was actually willing to burn his already damaged sword heart origin to forcibly stimulate his potential!
The longsword in his hand let out a mournful hum. The sword light became increasingly eerie and unpredictable, carrying a tragic aura of mutual destruction. He hissed in agreement with Venerable Withered Bone: That's right! Today, either they die, or our Dao perishes!
Seeing this, Xiao Ruobai was not alarmed but delighted. He laughed wildly, his battle intent erupting like a volcano as he once again met Venerable Withered Bone, whose aura had grown even more berserk from burning his origin.
Old bones, putting your life on the line? Just what I wanted! Your young master will play with you to the end! War God's Nine Tribulations—Slaughtering Immortals!
The dark-gold halberd phantom tore through the heavens, clashing madly against the sun-blotting spectral claw. Every single impact unleashed devastating shockwaves of energy!
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
