  F***, to actually be shameless to such a bold and forceful extent?

  Ling Han could not help but give a mocking laugh out of extreme anger as he retorted sarcastically, “I have always thought that there was a limit to a person’s shamelessness, yet the two of you actually brought it to new heights over and over again. I really salute to you both.”

  “Ling Han, it is still not too late to turn back!” The other gray-cloaked old man who was known as Qi Li Guo shook his head, his face filled with obvious amiability. “Don’t persist with such wrongdoings anymore. Opposing everyone will make you destined to cut a sorry figure.”

  Ling Han’s gaze deepened as he said, “You also knew that to oppose the people of the world would only come to a bad end? But from the looks of it, the both of you seemed rather quite merry in doing it.”

  Mao Jun and Qi Li Guo both felt a quiver in their hearts simultaneously—what did this kid mean by uttering such words? Could it be that he knew of the matter concerning the Realm Pill? Impossible, all the evidence in the past ten thousand years had been destroyed, and the brainwashing was also exceedingly successful. Any who spoke of the Realm Pill’s matter, on the contrary, would be laughed at by others and even more so beaten to death!

  Daring to slander the five great sects, bad-mouthing the meritorious great people? Wasn’t this courting death?

  “Heng, hand over the Mystical Power!” Mao Jun was playing the bad guy, while Qi Li Guo played the nice guy.

  Ling Han smiled thinly, and countered, “Heaven Tier and Shattering Void Tier elites are not making any move to strike, so all you can do is only roar at me. Dare to make a move?”

  “Such an arrogant junior!” Both Mao Jun and Qi Li Guo’s expressions abruptly change. They were but in the Deity Transformation Tier, yet they were actually looked down upon by a junior of the Spiritual Infant Tier. But after witnessing Ling Han’s battle prowess earlier, who would dare to rashly strike out?

  To suppress Ling Han, except for Heaven Tier and Shattering Void Tier elite, then there were only Xu Xiu Ran, Dong Ling’er, Jia Ming… these few in the young generation with extraordinary battle prowess…

  They were not aware that Jia Ming had already been beaten by Ling Han almost to the point of death—otherwise, they definitely would have tread even more carefully.

  “You both are making me feel really irked, so I shall slaughter you both first!” Ling Han’s figure leapt forth, and without the least hesitation, he drew out the Revere Life Sword, then charged in the direction of Qi Li Guo.

  “Heng!” They snorted. A Spiritual Infant Tier junior actually dared to initiate an attack against them—this was completely underestimating them.

  Chapter 733 - Double Kill

  Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee

  Ling Han’s first move was a huge one as there were too many elites present. It was unpredictable as to whether someone at the Heaven Tier or Shattering Void Tier would suddenly jump out and attack. Therefore, he had to be decisive and end the battle in the shortest time possible.

  Killing a teacher of the Academy was a serious crime. However, with Ling Han’s temper, would he care?

  Kill first, talk later!

  Shua, shua, shua. The Sword Ray was like a blaze. Although the Revere Life Sword could not be fully activated, with Ling Han’s strength, it could still bring about the destructive power of the Deity Transformation Tier, taking the form of a frightening killing array as it whirled towards Mao Jun and his partner.

  “This is not an ordinary Sword Ray!”

  “Sword Array!”

  Mao Jun and the other were both frightened out of their wits. How could it be like this? It was only a sword, but it could unleash Sword Ray that would automatically form a killing array! At first glance, their hearts were filled with fear, and their only thought was to escape.

  In actual fact, the destructive power of the killing array was indeed frightening. Before this, it was bent on killing Ling Han. Had it not been for Ling Han’s comprehension, which countered its strength with gentleness, it would have been impossible for him to obtain this precious sword!

  Yet he had only obtained the sword, and not conquered it—there was a huge difference between the two.

  Once the killing array was launched, it was equal to it joining forces with Ling Han, and could even slay a high level Deity Transformation Tier cultivator. How formidable was that?

  With just a few moves, Mao Jun and the other were both heavily scarred and covered in blood.

  Everyone was staring in awe; this was really too strong. Battling one on a higher cultivation tier was already so violent. Wouldn’t it mean that if Ling Han were to reach the Heaven Tier, he would be qualified to compete against the strongest in the world?

  With Ling Han’s age and cultivation level, who would have considered how long the Spiritual Infant Tier and Deity Transformation Tier could suppress him?

  “Brother Mao, let’s launch our ultimate moves together. As long as we can withstand a few more moves, reinforcements will surely arrive!” said Qi Li Guo.

  “Alright!” Mao Jun’s expression appeared concentrated. Suddenly, there was ray of thunder spiraling around his body, while his eyes were blazing brightly as if they had become electric eyes.

  In order to launch a great move, there were only two options.

  Firstly, one had to take the time to gain momentum. The so-called major move would naturally be extremely powerful and far superior to ordinary attacks. However, it would also have taken longer to accumulate power; the natural law was fair, after all. Yet, one could make the time of power storage become extremely short—even as short as the time taken to launch a normal strike—but there was a price to be paid.

  To launch a major move quickly, one could do so by means of self-damaging or overdrawing.

  It was like, as the saying went, killing one thousand enemies by sacrificing eight hundred of your own.

  Generally speaking, no one would easily choose the second option. Most would just make use of the time of going through the battle to store up enough power, and then launch a major move which could decide the victory with a single strike.

  However, where would Mao Jun have the time to go through the battle?

  Under the murderous attack of Ling Han and sword array combined, he had to go all out with every move. Each exchange left behind blood and grievous wounds, yet he still wanted to store up power to launch a major move? It would be almost the same as courting death.

  Therefore, he could only force a major move at the expense of suffering some damage.

  Hong , his whole person morphed into lightning. His height reached almost 30 meters, like a giant. He then struck by slamming his palm downwards in the direction of Ling Han.

  This wasn’t the Thunderclap Ninth Heaven. The Azure Thunder Sect also manipulated thunderbolts, so there wasn’t any difficulty in transforming the body into lightning. However, a bolt of blue lightning wasn’t the same as the Thunderclap Ninth Heaven’s white blaze. Thunder Ray spread throughout the whole area, with an incomparably terrifying destructive power.

  “Brother Qi, you’re— f***!” Mao Jun was just about to tell Qi Li Guo to attack Ling Han together from both sides, but when he glanced in that direction, he discovered that the other party had actually escaped without a trace.

  The other party’s proposal of attacking together was obviously a lie. Its purpose was just to mislead him into going all out so as to buy time for the other party to escape!

  “Qi Li Guo, f*** eighteen generations of your family’s ancestors!” Mao Jun screamed. Making him fight alone against Ling Han, he wouldn’t be able to drag out the battle for any longer even if he could unleash a major move. And what about after the major move?

  He would fall into a state of extreme weakness, and could only be trampled on.

  “Brother Mao, I shall bring people back to avenge you!” The voice of Qi Li Guo was heard in the distance.

  How shameless!

  Lin
g Han gave a cold smile. His figure rose. He temporarily kept the Revere Life Sword inside the Black Tower and took out the Sunset Bow, then notched an arrow forged from precious metal. Simultaneously, three Mystical Powers were activated and locked onto Qi Li Guo.

  “Hehe!” Mao Jun saw this, and chose to keep quiet, standing by.

  Xiu , an arrow ****.

  Qi Li Guo was really an idiot!

  Originally, he’d thought that since there was Mao Jun to counter Ling Han while he escaped so far away, he would be safe. Yet, in the moment when he was most relaxed, the attack reached him quickly, accurately, and fiercely!

  Pu , an arrow penetrated his heart.

  This arrow was known to exterminate dragons and destroy the stars. In addition to the destructive spirit of the Thunderclap Ninth Heaven, it could really pierce through one’s weak point like a bullseye; the power of this arrow was naturally horrifying to the extreme!

  Qi Li Guo staggered forward a few more steps before slowly turning his body around. He stared blankly at Ling Han and Mao Jun, completely confused. However, when he saw the sneer on Mao Jun’s lips, he finally regretted escaping.

  If he had chosen to fight alongside Mao Jun and launch a major move together in unison, there might be a chance that they could have resisted Ling Han and stalled for time until the arrival of reinforcements. Yet, he didn’t want to go all out to fight, so he had abandoned Mao Jun. On the contrary, it had turned out that he was the one to be finished first.

  How regretful he was of his past deeds!

  He crashed to the ground with blood gushing out from his pierced heart, staining the ground red.

  Xiu , Mao Jun dodged quickly. His body was now in the transformed state of lightning. Although it wasn’t a Mystical Power, his speed was still shockingly fast.

  Ling Han brandished the Blood Sucking Origin Gold, retrieved the precious arrow that he had shot, and rushed to chase down Mao Jun. His body had also transformed into lightning. It could be seen that his speed was obviously faster than the other party’s, and he was rapidly shortening the distance between the two of them.

  Zhu Xuan Er, Hu Niu, and Rabbit also quickly followed.

  Mao Jun was in panic. Now, he had only one thought in mind, which was to flee for his life. The young man behind him was too terrifying, and definitely not someone whom he could match.

  His speed indeed wasn’t slow, and in front of him, a person had appeared. The person had a slender body and was seemingly ordinary, but when one looked into his eyes, one would find himself looking into a starry universe with unlimited space.

  Xu Xiu Ran!

  He was overjoyed, and shouted, “Martial Nephew Xu, save me!”

  However, Xu Xiu Ran had a grave expression. He extended his hand, and shouted, “Be careful!”

  Be careful about what?

  Mao Jun gaped. Pu , what could be seen was a long sword that passed through his body, with its killing intent swirling, and his soul was quickly wiped out. Pa, his body lost all its strength and slipped to the ground following the sword’s blade.

  Ling Han retrieved the sword and looked at Xu Xiu Ran coldly. He didn’t mind slaughtering another genius of the Absolute Saber Sect.

  Eliminating one elite from the five sects was equivalent to removing one obstacle towards the future splitting open of the skies. Especially so for geniuses like Xu Xiu Ran and Jia Ming—these two were bound to be difficult opponents in the future.

  “That was Mao Jun of the Azure Thunder Sect,” Xu Xiu Ran spoke up.

  “So what?” Ling Han said coldly.

  “‘That means you’ve killed Small Saber King, and now Mao Jun. Does this mean you intend on revolting against the Restore Heaven Academy?” Xu Xiu Ran’s words came out in a drawl.

  Ling Han smiled, and said, “There is another one over there, called Qi Li Guo, whom I had also killed.”

  “That one was from Heaven’s Sword Sect.” Xu Xiu Ran wasn’t angry, but seemed extremely calm instead. He said, “Ling Han, I originally wanted to treat you as a rival, but you have chosen a path to your own doom. There is no chance for you to spar with me in the future.”

  Chapter 734 - Fight Again with the Absolute Saber

  “So what you mean is, I’ll be dead?” Ling Han spoke with indifference.

  “You can’t be any more dead than you already are.” Xu Xiu Ran nodded. “Right now, you are just a breathing corpse.”

  The five great sects ruled the realm for more than ten or even twenty thousand years; this was an extremely long time. Their rule couldn’t be shaken. After accumulation of ten thousand years, the quantity of Shattering Void Tier elites in particular was excessive to the point of making every party lose hope.

  What could possibly go wrong killing a brat at mere Spiritual Infant Tier?

  Even if Ling Han was now in the Shattering Void Tier, so what? Being chased by hundreds of Shattering Void Tier warriors, even if his battle prowess was in defiance of the natural order, he could only die with resentment!

  One had to know that out of those who could cultivate until the Shattering Void Tier, how many could actually shatter the void and become immortal? And which one of them wasn’t a phenomenal genius of his or her era? Would one be able to bypass the ranks and kill them off so easily?

  The strength of humanity at its peak!

  Ling Han laughed, and said, “Then let this ‘corpse’ destroy you first!”

  “Is that possible?” Xu Xiu Ran instantly pulled out the Absolute Saber. “I’ve had an enlightening encounter. My comprehension on the path of the saber had risen a level higher, allowing me to double Absolute Saber’s power and capability. Today, what do you have to counter me?”

  He was indeed proud. Previously, even with the full recovery of the Demon Birth Sword, it was equally matched with the Absolute Saber. Now that the latter’s power and capability had doubled, it would naturally be suppressed entirely.

  “Oh, is it?” Ling Han smiled slightly. He wasn’t afraid, because what he would be using now wasn’t the Demon Birth Sword.

  Generally speaking, should worse come to worst, he still had the Black Tower.

  Xu Xiu Ran stopped talking and just stared at Ling Han. Saber Qi overflowed from his body and transformed into a heavenly saber devoid of shadow behind him; this was extremely terrifying. Obviously, he was merely at the Deity Transformation Tier, yet this heavenly saber astonishingly had the aura of the Heaven Tier.

  A super genius who could battle an opponent superior to himself by a whole cultivation tier!

  The heavenly saber slashed down. It was about 300 meters long, so the area which fell within its range was amazing.

  Ling Han raised his fists to counter the attack. In this one strike, the opponent did not use the Absolute Saber to fight. Hence, Ling Han wanted to see how much was the difference between him and this number one genius of the Absolute Saber Sect.

  He did not dare to underestimate Xu Xiu Ran, so this punch had utilized his full strength.

  Hong , although he used a fist, Sword Ray actually appeared in a flash to greet the heavenly saber.

  As the heavenly saber smashed down, Sword Ray collapsed in an instant, the saber making an impact with Ling Han’s fist.

  Weng , Ling Han’s arm trembled like a wave, so much so that it was like a dough being flattened to make pastry. His arm had gone so far as to spread out like an opened umbrella. It was difficult to express how grotesque it was.

  With a slash of the saber, Ling Han was propelled over 20 meters backwards. A wound had formed on top of Ling Han’s hand, and even some veins in his arm had burst open, dyeing his entire arm red.

  However, that was about it.

  Xu Xiu Ran could not help but express his shock. “Merging of strength and gentleness?” He furrowed his brows. Even ordinary body arts which had achieved the level of merging strength and gentleness wouldn’t be able to withstand a strike of his saber. It was like a soft dough; no matter how so
ft, it should still be cut into two by a sharp blade.

  Ling Han shook his arm. As Indestructible Heaven Scroll circulated, his Body of Diamond was able to automatically heal itself. In an instant, the injury was healed, leaving his skin smooth and glowing like a jade under the light.

  Xu Xiu Ran remained cool. He kept the Absolute Saber in a vertical position. Although he had absolute confidence that he could cut down Ling Han with his own strength, he attached more importance to the outcome of the overall situation; this kind of evildoer had to be eradicated as soon as possible, and absolutely couldn’t be allowed to become a danger later.

  Therefore, he’d use the Absolute Saber to exterminate the opponent without any second thoughts.

  Weng , the Absolute Saber was slightly shining despite having been already damaged. The saber’s blade was mottled, but it still emitted a terrifyingly suppressive Qi which spread far and wide. The saber intent was flowing, making it come alive. It was as if it had its own will, and was no longer under the control of Xu Xiu Ran.

  The strong were naturally proud. Who could control it?

  Ling Han held up the Revere Life Sword. Weng , this sword seemed to have felt the threat. The markings on the blade glowed, with a murderous aura encircling it.

  This was a killing array!

  Hong , the Absolute Saber was exuding an amazing brilliance which soared into the sky, masking the sun’s rays and causing it to appear bleak. At this moment, it seemed to transform into Shattering Void Tier’s supreme capability of being able to cut down everything.

  On the other hand, the Revere Life Sword’s array patterns’ glow remained sleek and restrained. It seemed to have become an ordinary sword, but Ling Han knew that at this moment, this killing sword had also entered into a state of killing any god or Buddha that dared to block its path.
