880: C880 The Door Opened

C880 The Door Opened

Duan Tianzhang looked at Ling Jian in confusion.

However, right at this moment.

A cracking sound could be heard.

An incomparably clear sound echoed in this space. However, when this clear sound landed in Duan Tian Chang's ears, it was incomparably horrifying.

Because at this moment, he could feel that his entire arm had become numb. The spiritual energy sword that he was proud of in front of him had actually been forcefully broken by the finger of the sword.

This was a Supreme Grade Spirit Weapon. Even though it had yet to truly reach the level of a Numinous Treasure, that degree of toughness was far from what an ordinary Spirit Weapon could compare with.

And now, this seemingly incomparably tough longsword was actually easily broken by Ling Jian's finger! It looked so effortless!

Hua!

An uproar immediately erupted in the surroundings. The gazes of almost all the surrounding cultivators contained an intense shock. The shock in their eyes was even far greater than the instant when Ling Jian had used his finger to clamp the longsword.

Duan Tian Chang being able to step onto the Genius Ranking definitely belonged to the strongest group among the younger generation in the entire East Taitian. Although the quality of the longsword in her hand might not be able to reach the true Heavenly Dao Spirit Treasure... However, it was also definitely the most powerful type of spirit artifact.

After all, Duan Tianchang himself used the Sword Dao to deter everyone. Even though he would sometimes cultivate some staff techniques, spear techniques, and so on, but if even the most powerful sword techniques were unable to kill his opponent, these extra spirit techniques would also have an unexpected effect. However, it was absolutely impossible to unleash Duan Tianzhang's true power.

Under such circumstances, if Duan Tian Chang had a decent longsword, it would have an unexpected effect on his own explosive power.

But now, even his most powerful spirit artifact, the Cold Light Sword, had been broken. How could he compete with others?

It could be imagined how powerful Ling Jian's two fingers were.

Many cultivators were unable to calm down at this moment. In their opinion, it was so easy for him to do so. Even Baili Xuantian, who was ranked ninth, could not break the Cold Light Sword with his fingers. Ling Jian had not even entered the Genius Ranking. He was even at the early stage of the Heavenly Source Realm.

"Dammit! This kid is also a fellow in body refinement."

"If that's the case, then how powerful is his fleshly body? "Baili Xuantian's heart became a bit shaken, just like the surrounding cultivators' guesses. Similarly, if he were to use this method to break the Cold Light Sword... The final result would most likely be that his opponent's sword would cut off his fingers.

Not to mention touching it with his fingers, even if he used all his strength, he would not be able to do it with his physical body.

After all, even though a body refining cultivator's physical body would be incomparably powerful, no matter how the cultivator refined himself, he still wouldn't be able to do it. The degree of toughness of the physical body couldn't reach the level of a spirit artifact. Perhaps a cultivator with a higher cultivation could indeed do it. However, he would at least be a Saint Dao expert.

Ling Jian was merely an early stage Heavenly Source cultivator.

"Originally... So it turns out that he had been hiding his methods all this while" Tantai You's cherry lips were wide open. Just now... She had originally intended to use a new formation to buy Ling Jian more time to escape. However, she had not expected Ling Jian to attack before her and break his sword so easily.

However, Ling Jian's move undoubtedly refreshed what she had seen and heard.

Duan Tian's expression also became incomparably gloomy at this moment. He understood that he had still underestimated Ling Jian in the end.

Moreover, this wasn't a simple underestimation.

With the strength that Ling Jian currently displayed, not to mention facing him, even if he came into contact with Baili Xuantian, he would still have the strength to fight.

Duan Tianzhang was already incomparably regretful at this moment.

That was why he was only a fence-sitter. It was nothing more than wanting to win Baili Xuantian's eyes, making Baili Xuantian have a favorable impression of him. It allowed him to enter the Chaotic Black Sky and obtain Baili Xuantian's care.

But now, Ling Jian's performance had given him a great deal of disbelief. He even felt that he deserved it. If he had known earlier that Ling Jian was so powerful, perhaps he wouldn't have made a move either.

At this moment, along with the numbness and pain that came from his arm, Duan Tianchang finally had a trace of clarity. His body immediately wanted to subconsciously retreat backwards.

However, just as he was about to subconsciously retreat, he saw Ling Jian actually holding a sword tip that he had broken. He pointed it at the void in front of him and made a cut.

Then, his pupils contracted as he saw a cold light suddenly shoot out from the broken sword tip towards him.

Under this casual slash, Ling Jian did not use any special means. There was not even a trace of Spiritual Qi fluctuation in the surroundings.

However, when the sword light that spurted out appeared, Duan Tianzhang's expression suddenly changed drastically. His entire body was incomparably tense.

Apart from being afraid of the sword light that exploded out, what was actually more was Ling Jian simply lifting it as if it were heavy. He integrated some profound things that he was currently unable to come into contact with into this move, even though it looked like an ordinary move. However, it gave him a feeling of returning to his original self.

Shua.

He had clearly seen the cold sword light appear, but Duan Tianzhang was unable to make any reaction. On one hand, besides being shocked, on the other hand, Ling Jian's attack was simply too fast. He did not have any chance to react. He could only see a sword light flash past his neck.

The surrounding cultivators were all speechless. There was complete silence around them. Then, they all looked at Duan Tianzhang's neck.

Between them. As the cold sword Qi finally dissipated, a slender sword scar also appeared on Duan Tian Chang's neck.

Puchi.

A slight sound of blood spurting out came from Duan Tian Chang's neck. Then, a scarlet blood line shot out.

At this moment, everyone's gaze landed on Duan Tian Chang's body. Numerous senses descended. After which, they were shocked to discover that Duan Tian Chang's life force had been completely wiped out at this moment.

"Duan... Duan Tian Chang is already dead?" All the cultivators widened their eyes and spoke in disbelief. However, they did not receive the slightest response.

In fact, almost all the cultivators were in disbelief after seeing this.

Duan Tianzhang, a powerful existence ranked 99th on the Genius Ranking, was killed by an unknown young man named Ling Jian before he even entered the Chaotic Black Heavens.

After all, the Genius Ranking was considered to be the most valuable ranking among the young generation in the entire East Taitian.

One hundred and fifty of them could be said to be the strongest among the young generation of the entire East Taitian Genius Ranking.

However, the powerful Duan Tianzhang had lost to Ling Jian.

This was not the most important thing. What people could not accept was that Ling Jian's cultivation had just stepped into the initial stage of the Heavenly Source Realm. If he broke through to the late stage of the Heavenly Source Realm in the future, how powerful would he be?

To put it bluntly, with Duan Tian Chang's death here, it instantly caused a huge uproar in the surroundings.

Although Ling Jian had not been ranked on the East Taitian Genius Rankings, the fact that he was able to kill Duan Tian Chang clearly meant that he possessed the qualifications to enter the Genius Rankings. Moreover, his ranking would only exceed Duan Tian Chang's.

"An early Heaven Origin Stage cultivation has already been ranked on the Genius Ranking. This has probably never happened in the past, right?"

"Not to mention an early-stage Heavenly Source Realm, I'm afraid that even a mid-stage Heavenly Source Realm has never happened before."

"Indeed not, but this early stage Heavenly Yuan is already quite terrifying. Previously, she only used a single move to kill Duan Tianchang. If it was on the Genius Ranking, it wouldn't be too low either."

"In my opinion, even if it was on the Genius Ranking, it would still be in the top fifty. Perhaps it could even be ranked in the top thirty."

"What? Top 30?"

"He's only at the early stage of the Heavenly Source Realm. Could it be that after he broke through to the middle stage of the Heavenly Source Realm... So you can be in the top 10? If he breaks through to the advanced-stage of the Heavenly Source Realm, won't he be able to easily get rid of his younger brother's first place? "

" If that's really the case, then it's indeed too terrifying. "

...

Many of the cultivators present looked at each other in dismay.

This time, their gazes towards Ling Jian were no longer filled with ridicule. Instead, they were filled with deep reverence.

Ling Jian's attack just now had proved too much. His strength was very powerful, and the most important thing now was that Ling Jian was only at the initial-stage of the Heavenly Source Realm.

When the time came, his strength would probably become even stronger and more terrifying.

"Ling Jian, you're too formidable, right? How did you do it earlier?" Tantai You looked at Ling Jian and could not help but ask.

She still could not believe it. The scene earlier had really exceeded her expectations.

It turned out that Ling Jian only had such strong confidence because he did not put Duan Tian Chang in his eyes at all.

"Didn't you see it just now? It's actually very simple. My comprehension of spirit arts is even deeper, which is why I was able to kill him so easily. " Ling Jian said calmly.

"Is that really the case?" Tantai You immediately became suspicious. What Ling Jian said was very simple. Could it really be very simple?

If she had attacked Duan Tian Chang earlier, although she would have been able to kill him, she would not have been able to do it so easily.

Could it be that Ling Jian's true strength was greater than hers?

Tantai You's gaze immediately turned strange as he scanned Ling Jian.

She was an extremely talented person to begin with. However, from the looks of it now, Ling Jian's cultivation talent was clearly above hers. How could she not be shocked?

"Baili Xuantian, what do you think? This time, you shouldn't have anything to say, right?" Tantai You looked at Baili Xuanhuang again, his voice filled with pride.

Baili Xuantian had promised Duan Tianchang that as long as he could last ten rounds against Duan Tianchang, he wouldn't pursue the matter of Ling Jian anymore.

And now, Ling Jian had directly killed Duan Tianchang. This was clearly in line with the conditions Baili Xuantian had mentioned earlier.

Baili Xuantian fell into silence. After that, he looked at Ling Jian and didn't speak.

Behind Baili Xuantian. At this moment, Yao Yue's expression became unsightly, especially after seeing Baili Xuantian's silent behavior.

"Damn it!"

She couldn't help but curse.

"Tantai You, what are you so proud of?" Yao Yue glared at Tantai You.

However, Tantai You pretended not to hear what Yao Yue said. He only looked at Baili Xuantian and said in a deep voice, "Baili Xuantian, if you don't say anything, I will say that you agree?"

However, Baili Xuantian still chose to remain silent. He had no intention of speaking.

When Yao Yue, who was beside him, saw this scene, her expression became even uglier. She only glanced at Tantai You and Ling Jian. She glared at the two of them fiercely and gritted her teeth.

Previously, when Ling Jian had insulted him in front of everyone, she had already lost a lot of face. Now, here she was. If she still couldn't regain her face, she was afraid that she would leave the dark and move the skies in the future. Her reputation would definitely be tarnished at that time, and it would also affect her personal image.

"Tantai You, shut up. Don't say anything else." Yao Yue shouted.

"Bitch, is it your turn to speak now?" Tantai You's pretty face turned slightly cold, not giving Yao Yue any leeway.

"Tantai You, you're courting death." Yao Yue's eyes turned red as she looked at Tantai You with killing intent.

However, Tantai You did not pay any attention to the killing intent that Yao Yue was showing. He only smiled coldly. Seeing Yao Yue Yue like this, she felt extremely comfortable.

"Xuan Huang, do you think I deserve it? Do you think I deserve to be humiliated?" Yao Yue looked at Xuan Huang and said, "In the beginning, you insulted my Human Resources Sword. Now, even Tantai You has insulted me. I know you can't kill Tantai You, but what about Ling Jian? Your headquarters shouldn't even dare to kill him, right? "

As she spoke, Yao Yue's expression also became incomparably desolate. It was as though he was currently suffering a tremendous grievance.

"Yao Yue, you slut, shut up!"

Tantai You's expression also became ugly. Yao Yue's words were clearly meant to provoke Baili Xuantian.1

"Big brother Xuanhuang, say something!" Yao Yue continued to speak. She didn't pay any attention to Tantai You at this moment. She only looked at Baili Xuantian.

"Enough." Baili Xuantian finally stopped his silence and spoke coldly.

After hearing Baili Xuantian's words, a hint of joy appeared on Yao Yue's face. She thought that Baili Xuantian had already been moved by her words.

However, what surprised him was that the following words made her face freeze.

"Since you have won, I have nothing to say. However, don't be complacent. It's best not to let me touch you in the dark. " Baili Xuandong spoke in a deep voice, not giving the two of them a chance to react. He headed straight for Yao Yue.

Hearing Baili Xuanhuang's words, Tantai You could not help but heave a sigh of relief. Regardless of whether he entered or not, Ling Jian was absolutely safe now.

Although Ling Jian's previous actions had shocked her, she didn't think that Ling Jian could even deal with Baili Xuantian.

"Big brother Xuanhuang..." Yao Yue looked at Baili Xuantian, who was walking over. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn't have the time to say anything.

She was worried that if she spoke again, she might incur Baili Xuanhuang's dislike.

After all, Baili Xuantian's strength was far above hers.

"Damn it, Ling Jian. Consider yourself lucky this time." Tantai You's gaze was cold and stern. At this moment, his gaze was filled with intense hatred as he looked at Ling Jian.

At the same time, he looked away from Ling Jian and back at Tantai You.

In his opinion, if it wasn't for Tantai You's earlier words to stop him, Baili Xuantian might have already killed Ling Jian on the spot.

...

After Baili Xuantian's investigation, Yao Yue was the only one left. Even if she was unwilling, she didn't have the guts to find it troublesome.

At this moment, Ling Jian, who was once again being looked at by the surrounding cultivators, had a slight change in his gaze.

After all, they had clearly seen that Ling Jian was still alive today. Although Tantai You had helped quite a bit, Ling Jian himself was the most important among them.

After all, if one didn't have formidable strength, even if Tantai You had helped him previously... However, the person who had attacked Ling Jian had been replaced by Duan Tianzhang. At that time, Ling Jian would still have been killed.

But now, Duan Tian Chang had already been killed by Ling Jian, and had instead become Ling Jian's stumbling block. He had become Ling Jian's stepping stone in order to achieve his own success and rise to power.

It could be imagined that after this time's Chaotic Black Sky was truly finished, Ling Jian's name would definitely appear on the Genius Rankings, and it would be incomparably resounding and glorious.

Rumble!

At this moment, a deafening explosion erupted from the enormous palace once again. At the same time, the entire cliff shook as the sound fell.

Almost all the cultivators at the edge of the cliff looked up at the palace. Although they couldn't see the scene above the palace, they could still see it. Streams of black airflow soared into the sky like a black waterfall. They pierced through the sky.

"Look, the gate below the palace is open!"

At this time, another sharp-eyed cultivator saw that the palace covered in purple light had already opened its gate.

Everyone followed the gate of the palace and looked down. As the gate slowly opened... This is... The crowd followed the palace's doors and looked down. As the doors slowly opened, an endless stream of black air immediately gushed out, like the most evil aura. It brought along a wave of Yin Qi and instantly assaulted their faces.

The entrance to the palace outside the Black Sky was once a place used by the Dark Divine. Now that the Black Sky Sky had been opened, the cold and dark Qi on his forehead naturally surged out without any restraint.
