C671 Truth Listener Who Was Not Afraid of Flames
Regardless of whether it was the Soaring Sword or the Underground Beast, none of these cultivators were capable of fighting against them. If either of them were to pay attention to it, it was very likely that they would end up dying in the Ghost God Abyss first.
"You want to kill me too? However, even though you are far superior to ordinary middle-stage Heaven Enlightenment Realm cultivators, this bit of strength is still not enough."
Ling Jian said coldly.
At this moment, Ling Jian was also looking indifferently at Truth Listener. He did not feel much. He could feel the aura of Truth Listener that far exceeded that of the Divine Incarcerate Sect Master's phantom image. However, this alone was far from enough to kill him.
"Hmph, I'll have to try and see if I can kill you."
Diting said coldly, and a cold light flashed through his beast eyes.
Ling Jian's gaze swept past Truth Listener, and his heart suddenly moved.
Within the Skysoul Manor, the Undying Black Flames began to burn fiercely. Then, the flames turned into a sea of fire that completely wrapped around his body.
Seeing this scene, the cold Truth Listener suddenly had a flash of light in his beast eyes. He greedily looked at the current Ling Jian. To be precise, it was the dark flame that had appeared on Ling Jian's body.
This flame was none other than the Undying Black Flames.
The reason why he had chosen to sneak attack Ling Jian earlier was naturally because of the dark black flame on Ling Jian's body. This flame also contained a dark aura. Of course, what made him drool even more was the bloodline aura within the flame.
One had to know that as an underground vicious beast that contained the bloodline of a God Beast, its bloodline was already extremely noble compared to ordinary vicious beasts. However, from Ling Jian's body, it actually sensed more than just a noble bloodline aura.
Moreover, as an underground vicious beast, the more darkness aura it devoured, the faster its cultivation would increase, and its strength would naturally become stronger.
It could sense the two bloodline auras on Ling Jian's body. Any one of them was not inferior to him. If he was able to absorb and refine them... His strength would definitely rise at the first possible moment. At that time, his cultivation would also soar.
"You want this thing, right?"
Seemingly noticing Diting's greedy beast eye, Ling Jian shouted.
Immediately, he raised his hand and pointed. The flames on his body immediately surged wildly before violently rolling in the air.
In an instant, a pitch-black flaming spear smashed into the air, causing flames to surge into the sky. In a flash, it smashed heavily towards Truth Listener's body.
At this moment, the dark black flame on the spear suddenly expanded. An incomparably overbearing aura spread from it. Its might was extremely shocking. It was like a true divine spear that wanted to ruthlessly crush Truth Listener below.
Facing Ling Jian's terrifying attack, Truth Listener, who was below, did not move at all. It was as if he wanted to use his physical body to resist Ling Jian's attack.
When the surrounding cultivators saw this scene, all of them knitted their brows in powder.
After all, the combat strength that Ling Jian had displayed earlier... Even the projection of the Divine Incarcerate Sect Master felt a few great pressure, although they were at the same level. The influence of the ferocious beasts far exceeded that of ordinary human cultivators. Moreover, in the Ghost God Abyss... The might of the beasts exceeded that of the outside world, but under such circumstances... There was no need to be so arrogant, right?
"No way, could it be that the mind of this fierce beast has also been eroded?"
"Otherwise, what should we do? Under normal circumstances, a vicious beast with a Heavenly Dao cultivation base would basically possess the intelligence of a normal person."
"I didn't expect that I would be killed the moment I appeared. What a pity."
Everyone's hearts were slightly moved. Although Truth Listener made them fearful, if the other party died, perhaps the Ling Jian that was born wouldn't be easy to get along with either.
"The Ghost God Abyss is the Ghost God Abyss after all. So what if this beast luckily broke through to the Heavenly Dao Realm? Its mind is still affected."
A cultivator spoke in such a manner, and as soon as he finished speaking, he received the approval of many people.
After all, under this type of situation, if this vicious beast's mind wasn't corroded, it would definitely dodge Ling Jian's full force attack, and not quietly wait for death like those vicious beasts whose minds were dead.
This scene caused many cultivators to secretly complain. Although their will was more tenacious than the ferocious beast's, there was still a limit to it. No one could guarantee what would happen after staying in the Ghost God Abyss for a long period of time.
After a long period of time, perhaps even their minds would be eroded?
Just as everyone thought that Truth Listener might die in front of Ling Jian, no one saw it. At this moment, the corners of Truth Listener's mouth suddenly revealed a mocking smile that was filled with ridicule and disdain. It was as if he was mocking their ignorance and also mocking Ling Jian for overestimating himself.
At this moment, the gazes of many cultivators landed on Diting. In their opinion, even if Diting dodged at this moment, it would be very difficult for him to dodge.
After all, this was a move of Ling Jian. A powerful attack usually wouldn't let the other party dodge so easily.
However, at this moment, Diting didn't feel the slightest bit of panic in his heart.
In reality, the reason why he didn't flicker was not because his mind was truly affected by the dark energy of the Ghost God Abyss. Rather, it was because he didn't place Ling Jian's attack in his heart at all.
As a ferocious beast with a Heavenly Dao cultivation base, and a ferocious beast that lived under the dark energy all year round... He could usually ignore attacks with this kind of power unless the opponent's cultivation base was really too powerful. It was so powerful that even he felt a tremendous pressure, but it was very obvious that... Ling Jian! Although it was not bad, it had not reached this level.
Therefore, under such circumstances, the power that Ling Jian displayed could be ignored.
At the very least, Diting's cultivation base was higher than Ling Jian's, so under such circumstances, Diting could similarly ignore any black power attacks.
Coincidentally, not only was the Undying Black Flame black, it also contained a dark energy attack, so he was even more unafraid.
After all, it was a Heavenly Saint that gathered dark energy to grow, and it usually devoured this energy. Now that Ling Jian displayed such power, how could he be afraid?
Finally, the black long spear that was completely condensed from the Undying Black Flame smashed down with a loud bang. However, under such circumstances, Truth Listener still did not plan to dodge. Not only that, his head was raised high at this moment. Then, it suddenly collided with the spear.
Dong!
The beast spear violently collided with each other. The long spear, which was condensed from the black Undying Black Flame, had unknowingly smashed into Diting's body and shattered. Or was it because Diting smashed it into pieces and directly turned into a ball of flame. The flaming light spots that filled the sky fell onto Diting's body like raindrops.
In an instant, it completely surrounded Diting's body.
At the same time, a fanatical aura spread out in all directions, causing the expressions of many cultivators to change slightly. Some of the cultivators who were accidentally touched by this fire source felt even more uncomfortable.
They were not clear about the power of this flame spear, but just the high temperature that spread out was not something they could resist.
Although they were in a sorry state right now, their eyes were still focused on the battle between the two.
Under the cover of the flames, was Truth Listener alive or dead?
Ling Jian's gaze landed on Truth Listener, who was covered in flames, at this moment. However, he could sense that something was amiss, and he frowned slightly.
He did not make any guesses. Instead, he looked indifferently at the development of the situation.
This was the first time in his history that he had fought an earth-deep vicious beast. Although he knew that an earth-deep vicious beast was far more difficult to deal with than an ordinary super heavenly vicious beast, he wasn't worried at all.
The Undying Black Flame enveloped Diting's body. At the same time, waves of high temperature spread out in all directions.
When the cultivators saw this scene, they gradually did not have much expectations for Diting. Even though they had previously had hope for Diting, they had no choice but to be destroyed at this moment.
Originally, they had thought that they would borrow Truth Listener's power to resist Ling Jian and see if they could kill Ling Jian. At that time, they would take the opportunity to slip away.
If they were lucky enough to cause both sides to suffer, it would be good for them to take advantage of it.
However, from the looks of it now, with Diting's current condition, there was really not much hope.
"Eh, that doesn't seem right. This Truth Listener should not be dead yet!"
Suddenly, someone cried out in alarm. Then, everyone's gaze once again turned towards the Diting that was covered in flames.
In everyone's line of sight, the flames that had appeared on Truth Listener's body began to churn violently. The flames that had been burning for a few breaths began to churn violently at this moment. At the same time, the area of the flames continued to shrink. It was a strange scene. It was as if there was some terrifying force devouring it.
Everyone's eyes followed it. In the blink of an eye... More than half of the flame had disappeared. When the last flame disappeared from Diting's body... At this moment, only Diting's figure was left in the place where the flame had been burning.
Everyone's eyes fell on Diting, and their eyes were filled with horror.
They had never imagined that not only did Truth Listener not choose to dodge when faced with Ling Jian's terrifying move, he had actually withstood it and remained completely intact.
Not only that, when everyone's gaze was cast over, they could even feel a relaxed and satisfied expression on Diting's face, as if that terrifying attack just now had not been used on him.
"What exactly is going on?"
"Could it be that Ling Jian held back?"
"This is also impossible, right?"
"Didn't this Truth Listener say earlier that he wanted to kill Ling Jian? Why would he hold back?"
Everyone was astonished. If Ling Jian had not gone easy on him, how could Diting have endured it?
Just as everyone was in shock, Truth Listener's gaze slowly landed on Ling Jian. Then, he said coldly, "Is this your strength? It's nothing much."
"Looks like you are able to resist and absorb the black energy."
Ling Jian sneered.
"Looks like you've finally discovered it."
Diting said coldly. He didn't expect Ling Jian to discover its secret so quickly.
Indeed, all the previous attacks had been absorbed by him. However, when he absorbed that energy, it was extremely secretive. He had not expected that Ling Jian would still be able to see through it.
"However, no matter how much this energy is absorbed, it will not be of much use."
Truth Listener slowly said as its gaze landed on Ling Jian. It had clearly sensed the Undying Black Flame within Ling Jian's body. If he could absorb the Undying Black Flame, he might instantly break through.
Since the other party had revealed his secret, he naturally would not continue to hide it.
"Ling Jian, if you don't have any other means, then give up. Although your flame power is powerful, it's a pity that I, Truth Listener, live in such an environment. If your flame doesn't have the power of darkness, it might have some effect on me. Unfortunately, this kind of power can be used against other cultivators and fierce beasts. It will be very difficult to deal with me."
"Therefore, not only am I going to kill you today, I'm also going to take away the opportunity in your body. Speaking of which, you should be satisfied that you can die in the hands of me, Truth Listener, right?"
Diting spoke coldly. At the same time, his head was raised even higher at this moment, and the arrogance on his body could not be concealed.
To him, if Ling Jian did not have any other means, then he would be one of the four of them now.
After all, his own combat strength had already exceeded Ling Jian's. It was not impossible for his cultivation to be comparable to a Middle Heaven Enlightenment Realm human cultivator. Furthermore, he possessed the bloodline of a Divine Beast. His combat strength far exceeded that of an ordinary fierce beast, not to mention that he was still in the Ghost God Abyss.
Therefore, even though Ling Jian had defeated the Divine Incarcerate Sect Master's phantom image earlier, he had not truly taken it to heart.
"Shameless boasting."
Ling Jianhan said, not angry. He looked at Truth Listener with a glint in his eyes.
In the next moment, the Undying Black Flames in his Glory's Will Residence erupted once more, even more terrifying than the last time, turning into an endless sea of fire that spread out from his body.
"Then let me see again, are you really not afraid of this ferocious beast that was born unafraid of dark energy?"
Ling Jian said coldly, his calm gaze landing on Truth Listener. At the same time, he raised his hand and pointed. The flames immediately began to roll, and then once again gathered in the void to form an incomparably huge spear.
This time, the spear was twice as large as the last time.
Upon seeing this scene, a deep disdain flashed across Truth Listener's eyes. He slowly shook his head and said, "Ling Jian, you can change your attack. Such an attack is not a threat to me."0
However, Ling Jian remained indifferent to Diting's contempt and disdain. However, his gaze became even colder. With a flick of his finger, he said, "Smash!"
At the same time, the pitch-black spear, which was around five meters long, carried a terrifying might as it furiously smashed toward Diting's head.
Truth Listener stood where he was and did not intend to dodge. He could naturally sense that the power of this spear was even stronger than before. However, he remained unmoved and did not feel anything.
