“Courting death…..” Ning Cheng, just a trivial Sea Opening Cultivator, actually dared to attack him, who possessed the cultivation of Crucible Transformation 3rd Level, on his own. It caused Tang Guangxi’s face to turn from white to red in anger. Without any warning, seven faintly discernible fire beads shot out from him towards Ning Cheng; turning the surroundings into a world of fire in just a blink of an eye.
For the people nearby, it looked like Ning Cheng, and Tang Guangxi had disappeared entirely, replaced by a single giant burning fireball. This burning hot fireball gave people the illusion that it could even burn away the piece of space it was in; of course, it was only an illusion.
“Oh…..” a beautiful looking woman from the Star Gathering Mansion gave a sigh, “Elder Tang is too petty. Just to deal with a Sea Opening Realm Cultivator, he even brought out his seven treasured South Fire Beads.”
She knew that this Sea Opening Realm Cultivator was none other than Ning Cheng, causing her to feel somewhat guilty in her heart. After all, Ning Cheng had saved the people from her Star Gathering Mansion, but currently, her Star Gathering Mansion had come along here with her to actually take advantage of the situation. However, whether or not she felt guilty about it, she wasn’t the one in charge in the Star Gathering Mansion.
When those seven South Fire Seeds enveloped Ning Cheng, Ning Cheng instantaneously felt his body burning from top to bottom. It was not until this moment, that Ning Cheng finally brought forth his long spear, to block those South Fire Beads.
The long spear transformed into a Black Spear Dragon, entangling the seven South Fire Beads. Even so, Ning Cheng still could not help but gasp; it was as if the South Fire Bead’s scorching aura was starting to become unbearable for him.
“Just a little animal from an almost fallen sect, an ant who just advanced to the Sea Opening Realm yet assuming to be the best in the world. Today, this old man will let you see, there will always be a person above a person……” Although Tang Guangxi spoke those words from his own mouth, he was actually shocked in his heart. He could not think that Ning Cheng, with just his trivial Sea Opening Realm Cultivation, would actually be able to block his seven South Fire Beads. It was just too shocking.
Thinking of the time from all those years ago, when Ning Cheng was still just a Profound Core Cultivator, but now was a Sea Opening Realm Cultivator, Tang Guangxi felt even more urgency to completely destroy Ning Cheng. After he killed Ning Cheng, he had to take away Ning Cheng’s corpse. This cultivator definitely had a huge secret on him, if he did not have a huge secret, then he would never possess such a ridiculous cultivation speed, even if he spent countless years in the Tian Continent.
The flames of the seven South Fire Beads suddenly skyrocketed; it was as if someone suddenly poured fuel onto the burning sun. The flashes of fire were incomparably dazzling. The Spiritual Consciousness of people with lower cultivations was just unable to reach inside it.
Under this kind of fire, Ning Cheng’s aura fell more and more dispirited. The Black Dragon manifested from the Spear Intent using his long spear, was finally unable to keep the seven South Fire Beads at bay. As the Black Dragon’s aura weakened, it caused the Aura of Ning Cheng to also turn even more dispirited.
Sensing the dispirited aura from Ning Cheng though the seven South Fire Beads, Tang Guangxi showed a fiendish grin, before a red light shot out of him. As this red light shot out, it split into two red lights, these two red lights then once again divided into four red lights as they rushed towards Ning Cheng.
This Magical Weapon was the one that allowed him to rise to fame, the Independent Flame Spectral Sword. His Main Spiritual Root was actually a flame-attributed one, so not only did his Magical Weapon possessed the characteristics of flames, even his attack methods primarily focussed on the attribute of fire.
Ning Cheng seemed to feel that he had to exert himself to the fullest, so he once again raised his hand, bringing out 12 Axe Lights. Of these 12 Axe Lights, five of them immediately shot out to block the Independent Flame Spectral Swords, while the other seven combined with the dispirited Black Dragon formed from the long spear to once again prevent the attack from Tang Guangxi reaching him.
Tang Guangxi was immediately surprised in his heart; initially, he wanted to conclude this fight quickly. He did not expect Ning Cheng to be so resilient that he would actually be able to block his Independent Flame Spectral Swords. These things were definitely not something that a Sea Opening Realm Cultivator could accomplish. However, when he saw Ning Cheng soaked with drops of sweat the size of soybeans, his heart slightly relaxed. Evidently, Ning Cheng was almost at the end of his ropes, as long as he attacks again, Ning Cheng definitely would die.
It was not only Tang Guangxi, even the other powerful cultivators looking in from the outside, but all of their eyes also flashed with evil glints. Ning Cheng’s cultivation progress was quite swift, if there was no secret on his body, then such achievements were impossible. If they waited for Tang Guangxi to kill Ning Cheng, then they might not even get the opportunity to drink the leftover soup.
Do not look at these people for not seizing the opportunity to attack the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect; it was because they knew that as long as Tang Guangxi killed Ning Cheng, it would become something set in stone. Doing this kind of offensive thing, the Red Star Sword Faction should be the one to do it. After all, Rainbow Fall Sword Sect’s Rui Baishan was not yet dead; as such, it might turn even more advantageous for them to currently restrain themselves from taking the advantage.
Now that Ning Cheng and Tang Guangxi had already exchanged a dozen blows, yet unable to kill Ning Cheng, it caused some of the people to begin thinking of such things.
Feeling the rising killing intent of the surrounding people, an expert like Tang Guangxi easily could sense it. He realised that he must kill off Ning Cheng in the shortest possible time.
Just as Tang Guangxi was about to bring out his killer attack, suddenly six more Axe Lights immediately materialised right in front of him.
These six Axe Lights took form from six different Axe Traces; these Axe Traces brought forth a horrifying aura, causing the surrounding to split apart before they fused together while shooting towards Tang Guangxi.
Not good, this little animal used trickery, not going all out.
Tang Guangxi instantaneously understood as he quickly moved to bring out a big bronze bell. At this moment, he realised that Ning Cheng’s cultivation did not look any worse compared to him.
“Dong-Dong-Dong…..” The Axe Traces and the giant bronze bell finally collided, sending out a tragic desolation-like death knell. The two Crucible Transformation Cultivators who wanted to take the opportunity to shoot forward suddenly came to a stop.
A moment later, a berserk wave of True Essence rolled over, as if it wanted nothing more than tearing apart the meridians of anyone that bared its path, followed by Tang Guangxi spurting several mouthfuls of blood one after another. At this moment, he finally understood that Ning Cheng’s strength was not inferior to him, but actually stronger compared to his own; in fact, this gap in their power was not small at all.
Tang Guangxi only had one thought in his mind at this moment, to immediately withdraw and then lay siege to this beast with the help of others. He was now somewhat regretting that he brought out his Independent Flame Spectral Swords; if Tang Guangxi had not brought out his Independent Flame Spectral Swords, then he would have definitely been able to withdraw from this battle space with the Independent Flame Spectral Swords.
Even if that was the case, Tang Guangxi believed that he would still be able to retreat from this place. Tang Guangxi had just thought of this idea when the Nirvana Spear entangled with his seven South Fire Beads suddenly once again transformed from its previous dispirited appearance. It turned into a Black Dragon that was remarkably lifelike, which then immediately shot out as it tore through the space between the two before it finally appeared in front of Tang Guangxi’s glabella.
The formidable
oppressive force combined with the murderous killing intent erupted out from within the spear intent. Tang Guangxi discovered in horror that even with his Crucible Transformation 3rd Level Cultivation, he unexpectedly felt utterly helpless in front of the killing intent concealed with the spear intent.
It was a potent spear strike, causing Tang Guangxi’s heart to crack apart. He did everything he could to crazily twist his body to escape from the spear intent that had locked onto his body.
“Puff…..” Even if Tang Guangxi distorted his body’s physique to evade this attack, the Nirvana Spear still managed to shoot through his neck, bringing up a trail of blood as it exited.
Tang Guangxi couldn’t help but sigh in his heart; he knew that although he barely managed to escape with his life, the pride in his heart unexpectedly did not allow him to accept it. This kind of frightful spear intent, although he actually escaped from it, he did not let this long spear to pierce through his glabella, something definitely worthy of some pride. He affirmed that he definitely had never seen such a terrifying spear intent in his life until now.
“Puff-Puff-Puff……” Another six bloody lights erupted from the body of Tang Guangxi one after another, causing Tang Guangxi’s moment of pride and joy to immediately stagnate. He could only helplessly watch his body diced apart in seven sections by the six small axes. From this, it was clear that Ning Cheng did not possess just 18 axes, but 24 axes in reality. At the same time, he understood that Ning Cheng had actually not planned to pierce through his glabella with his spear a moment ago.
The Red Star Sword Faction is finished;
this was his last thought.

Such powerful spear intent……
None of the cultivators there were weak, so when Ning Cheng’s spear intent came out, the surrounding cultivators were immediately able to feel it. Each of them looked at each other with an ashen expression. If they were the ones to face this kind of spear intent, would they be able to deal with it?
The terrifying hot aura of the South Fire Beads also started to converge instantly. Then all of them saw Tang Guangxi, with his body split into seven sections, start falling towards the ground closely followed by a rain of blood. Moreover, all of Tang Gongxi’s magical weapons disappeared without a trace, even Ning Cheng who was battling against Tang Guangxi had disappeared.
Except for a few intermediate stage Crucible Transformation Cultivators that were able to see how Ning Cheng killed Tang Guangxi; the rest of the cultivators could not even perceive how Ning Cheng won the battle.
“Elder Tang died…..” A Soul Sculpting Realm Cultivator from the Red Star Sword Faction had just spoken those words when Ning Cheng arrived in front of him.
12 Cosmic True Devil Axes arranged themselves into a killing formation, surrounding more than a dozen Crucible Transformation Cultivators. The long spear in his hands also conjured up one formidable spear intent after another. These spear intents crisscrossed through the middle of the cultivators from the Red Star Sword Faction like faint flashes of light.
Bursts of screams erupted with splashes of blood flying through the air; at this moment, the place where the people from the Red Star Sword Faction stood turned into a piece of hell on earth.
Although there were some sporadic counterattacks; however, in the face of the killing formation formed from the 12 Cosmic True Devil Axes, they merely amounted to nothing at all.
In just less than an incense stick worth of time, the place finally turned utterly silent while Ning Cheng was the only one left standing atop the corpses of cultivators from the Red Star Sword Faction, bodies that fell at his hands, with a calm expression on his face. At this time, no one was able to see the 12 Small Axes, which had already disappeared, only the long spear remained in his hands, without any Spiritual Qi fluctuations.
At this moment, everyone turned utterly silent; no one could even speak as if those people had lost their voices. In the history of the Tian Continent, no, in the entire past of the Yi Xing Mainland, there had never been such a fierce Sea Opening Realm Cultivator. Even if Ning Cheng did not say anything about it, many people among themselves suspected that Ning Cheng had concealed his actual cultivation.
Yuan Qin from the Profound Light Chamber of Commerce felt chills running down her body on seeing such a scene. Thinking back to the time when Ning Cheng spoke about showing mercy to them, she finally realised that it was true. Now that she looked at Ning Cheng’s fight, didn’t Ning Cheng show more than just mercy when he came to her Profound Light Chamber of Commerce?
A smell of carnage remained in the air. Nobody spoke, nobody even moved. All the people knew that even if they decided to collaborate and kill Ning Cheng today, the place definitely would turn into an area filled with rivers of blood. If it turned bad and were not able to kill Ning Cheng, then in the future, rivers of blood might appear in their own factions.
Rui Baishan was already enough to instil dread in their hearts, but they did not expect that the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect would also produce someone like Ning Cheng.
If they knew that the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect contained such a monster, they definitely would not have come here to muddle around in these muddy waters. At this moment, none of them wanted to go forward to speak with Ning Cheng. The one to go ahead first would show their own guilty conscience, they were all afraid that maybe Ning Cheng would make them the next object of his revenge. Didn’t they just see Ning Cheng arrange a strong entrapment formation with his 12 Axes, then use the long spear in his hand to completely massacre the Red Star Sword Faction? Didn’t they notice that the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect’s Mountain Protecting Grand Array looked wholly repaired?
A Crucible Transformation Cultivator that was able to jump levels to kills their enemy was already terrifying, but if this Crucible Transformation Cultivator happened to also be an Array Formation Grand Master, then ‘terrifying’ would not even begin to describe that existence.
Moreover, some of the Crucible Transformation Cultivators knew that Ning Cheng had a lot more than just those 12 Axes; he actually had at least 24 Axes. Only Yuan Qin, who felt chills run down her spine, knew clearly that Ning Cheng actually had a lot more than 24 Axes.
She did not understand why Ning Cheng had not used those 36 Axes of his against her at that time; properly speaking Ning Cheng should have acted like today, yet she instinctively knew that he had still not displayed his full strength.
In fact, she didn’t know that Ning Cheng had only come to her place after advancing to the 3rd Level of the Sea Opening Realm. Before that, he had just fought with Gui Ba, when he was at the 1st Level of Sea Opening Realm. Yuan Qin’s strength was a lot stronger compared to Gui Ba, combined with the four Sea Opening Realm Cultivators helping her, along with the Entrapment Formation that the Profound Light Chamber of Commerce had set up; Ning Cheng had ended up overestimating the strength of the opposite party. As such, he had brought out his 36 Axes to fight. If it was right now, with just 12 of his Axes, he could quickly take care of them, if needed.
Ning Cheng’s gaze once again swept towards the already terrified cultivators’ faces, before he spoke out in an ice-cold tone, “My Rainbow Fall Sword Sect never bullied others, but that does not mean that it is an existence that would allow being bullied by others. If anyone attacks my Rainbow Fall Sword Sect after it activated its Grand Array to seal it off, then all would end up killed without amnesty. My Rainbow Fall Sword Sect’s Sect Master was plotted against by Xu Anzhen and the others, so is it possible that you all thought that since my Rainbow Fall Sword Sect does not have Sect Master Rui currently, you all can bully us whenever you want?”
“I, Ning Cheng, am the current Acting Sect Master of the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect. Anyone who tried
to attack my sect’s Mountain Protecting Grand Array today will end up designated as my Rainbow Fall Sword Sect’s mortal enemy. I will not rest until you are completely decimated and eradicated. When I was at the Soul Essence Realm, I was already able to almost completely extinguish the Severing Emotions Dao Sect. Now that I’m only a step away from advancing to the Crucible Transformation Realm, why would I have to be afraid of some ghosts who like to fish in troubled waters? If you want to deal with my Rainbow Fall Sword Sect, even if I, Ning Cheng, might not be an opponent for you today, but in the future, I will treat you all just like the Severing Emotions Dao Sect, and pay a visit to all your factions one by one…….“
Ning Cheng, to increase the deterrent force, ‘deliberately alleviated’ his cultivation level by several levels.
The surroundings were utterly silent; this was a naked threat from Ning Cheng. The roots of those Crucible Transformation Cultivators were profound and did not care about such things. Nevertheless, coming to those cultivators with low cultivation, they all had a very ugly complexion due to anger; however, it was a pity that they were not a match against Ning Cheng. At this moment, they could not even pay attention when Ning Cheng disclosed the matter regarding Xu Anzhen.
However, the words spoken by Ning Cheng were definitely not even half a bit wrong. Who among them could dare to charge into the Severing Emotions Dao Sect with just the cultivation of Soul Essence Realm? Also, despite possessing the cultivation of Crucible Transformation Realm, how could they not be afraid of doing such a thing?
Contrary to those cultivators on the outside, the nearly thousand people who were the only remaining people of the Rainbow Fall Sword Sect were clenching their fist in excitement. The younger cultivators even felt their faces growing hot from the drama as warm blood gushed straight to the top of their heads. The current Rainbow Fall Sword Sect did not have any Crucible Transformation Elders, so what. There was still Sect Master Ning, someone whose pressure the opposite party could not handle, someone who could massacre the entire group from the Red Star Sword Faction by himself.
