Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“You’re courting death.”

Xu Zhong was in a rage. Mo Wen didn’t even have the Cultivation in Golden Elixir realm, yet he was daring to be so impudent. “You shall die at my hand! Sword travels the world!” Xu Zhong withdrew a long Sword from his waist as he strode in the air. Every step he took, he struck the sword once. After a while, the shadows of the sword joined together, like raindrops falling from heaven, densely and continually.

His figure was hidden amidst the sword Qi, being indistinguishable from the real or the virtual. It was as though he had become as one with the numerous sword Qi.

In an instant, heaven and earth became austere. The ground, the trees and even the sky were densely filled with streaks of sword Qi moving around them. Wherever they threaded, they left traces of sword Qi.

The pupils of Mo Wen’s eyes contracted like he was in the midst of the sword tides with sharp sword Qi everywhere.

When the martial arts practitioner in the Golden Elixir realm had attacked with all his might, it was indeed earth-shattering. If a martial arts practitioner in the Embryonic Breathing realm was to be in the midst of such terrifying Sword tides, they might be transformed into fine powder instantly.

Mo Wen flicked his finger. Seven pieces of Sacred Flame Insignia flew out of Medicine spiritual ring silently before they joined together and transformed into a Sacred Flame Sword.

A streak of terrifying Flame Sword Qi shot towards the sky. It was as though it had struck the sky and chopped the earth, and violently tore up the tides of sword Qi. The terrifying high temperature had caused the forest below to be ignited spontaneously.

“Eh?” Xu Zhong’s figure flew out of the Sword tides. Originally, he had planned to hide in the Sword tides before looking for a chance to annihilate Mo Wen with a lethal attack. However, he had never expected the youngster to destroy his Sword tides with a strike.

“Yet another magical treasure!” Xu Zhong looked at the burning long Sword in Mo Wen’s hand as he gasped involuntarily. That long Sword was emitting a terrifying power which caused him to feel a sense of terror. It was clear it was a complex magical treasure, otherwise, it was impossible to have such terrifying pressure and power.

“Where exactly do you come from?” Xu Zhong now had fear in his heart. This youngster had two magical treasures. How could a normal person have managed to obtain such treasures? Among the eight big influences in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, not many Sects could have two magical treasures at one time. Any youth that had such secret treasures must be special. Xu Zhong was apprehensive of Mo Wen’s status once again.

“Old thing, ask when you are able to defeat me.” Mo Wen curled his lips into a smile. Was his opponent simply apprehensive of the influence behind him? In the eyes of the martial arts practitioner in the Golden Elixir realm, anyone below the Golden Elixir realm was considered as one without power.

“Little brute, I’ve already offended you today. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble in the future, I must kill you to silence you.”

Xu Zhong swept his eyes across their surroundings and discovered that this place was a few kilometers away from Panli City, which was in the wilderness with no one else around. Immediately, the desire to kill rose again inside him. Once he killed the youngster before him, he would be able to obtain the two magical treasures. Even thinking of it gave him immense excitement.

Those were two magical treasures. If he could have them, he would stand effortlessly on the pinnacle of the pyramid in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. For the sake of the precious treasures, he already had the thought of taking the risk. After all, they were in the wilderness so there wouldn’t be any evidence once he was dead, about who had killed this youngster. If the worst came to worst, he could immediately hide in the deep mountains after he had taken the two magical treasures, emerging later when he had the strength.

“Your thinking is similar to mine. Here is indeed a good place to kill.” Mo Wen was able to understand Xu Zhong’s thinking at a glance. He laughed contemplatively as he looked as Xu Zhong, like he was looking at his prey.

The reason he had left the city was for the purpose of concealing the news of having precious treasures with him. There were many people and eyes in the city. If he fought with Xu Zhong with all his might, everyone in the entire Green Ancient Mystery Dimension would know that he had a few magical treasures with him. Hence, he had wanted to lure Xu Zhong out of Panli City and now had to kill him to silence him.

“Arrogant, I’ll like to see what abilities you have to brag so wildly.” Xu Zhong was not angry but elated. He was afraid that Mo Wen didn’t want to fight with him and would run away straightaway. If Mo Wen had those magical treasures to increase his speed, Xu Zhong might not have any way of catching him. Since Mo Wen’s purpose and his were the same, he was no longer worried that this youngster would run away. Since he was not escaping, Xu Zhong would have a chance to kill him completely.

Xu Zhong’s figure flashed and pounced onto Mo Wen violently, like a tiger which had come from the mountain, attempting to tear the opponent into pieces in one stroke. The Inner Qi rolled and covered everywhere as it frantically hit towards Mo Wen.

Mo Wen also gave his best. He had a Sacred Flame Sword in one hand as he brazenly collided into Xu Zhong. Both their fighting capacities were quite high so they were neck and neck within a short period of time. No winner had yet emerged.

The more Xu Zhong fought, the more fearful he got. The strength of this youngster was way beyond his expectation. He actually couldn’t kill him within a short period of time.

“The martial arts practitioner in the Golden Elixir realm was merely this level.” Mo Wen curled his lips into a sardonic laugh. He had not used the Soul power since the beginning and was fighting Xu Zhong with his own Cultivation. It was confirmed that even if he couldn’t defeat Xu Zhong, it wouldn’t be an easy task for Xu Zhong to defeat him.

“This fellow is arrogant.” Xu Zhong was getting more irascible as time passed. He never expected this youngster to be so difficult to deal with, especially his martial arts. He had never seen them before, but every martial art was extremely strong.

The sword Qi that Mo Wen had casually released was actually more penetrating than Xu Zhong’s sword Qi. If he didn’t use the massive Inner Qi as his foundation, the older man might not be the youngster’s match.

“Not fooling around with you any further. Die then.” The golden lights flashed in Mo Wen’s eyes, like two suns. If anyone was to look into Mo Wen’s eyes at this moment, he might be blinded by the glaring radiance.

“Dream on...” Xu Zhong laughed sardonically. This youngster actually dared to say that he would kill him. Xu Zhong indeed couldn’t defeat Mo Wen straight away, but if the fight continued for a long time, he would definitely defeat him. He still had a chance, but this youngster didn’t have a chance at all.

However, he hadn’t finished his words before he was stopped abruptly. An eerie emotion grew in his heart, like at that instant a primitive beast had turned its eyes on him. A sense of an approaching crisis had given Xu Zhong an instinctive need to hide. However, he also realized that he couldn’t hide. That terrifying feeling was like a bone attaching gangrene, which was attached to his body constantly.

Bomb! Like a rumble of thunder, it hit upon his brain directly. His body trembled and stumbled as he directly tumbled from the air. In his eyes, there was torpor and emptiness, like he had lost his soul.

Almost simultaneously, Mo Wen strode across the side of his body. The Sacred Flame Sword cut across the sky in a perfect arch as it slashed towards Xu Zhong violently.

“No!” Suddenly, Xu Zhong woke up from his torpor and immediately shouted in shock. He flashed his body ready to escape, but everything was in Mo Wen’s expectation so the sword Qi descended upon him at that instant. Xu Zhong, who had just woken up from his torpor, basically didn’t have time to escape but could merely move his body slightly.

Psssh! Two legs dropped from the air onto the ground of the forest below as blood spurted out profusely. The stroke didn’t kill Xu Zhong. Mo Wen had intended to strike at Xu Zhong’s torso, but at the moment that the long Sword was about to penetrate the body, Xu Zhong woke up suddenly and moved his body slightly to escape the lethal attack.

“The soul of the martial arts practitioner in the Golden Elixir is indeed very strong.” Mo Wen stood in the air and sighed softly. He had used the Divine Soul Trillion Layers to attack Xu Zhong just now. Originally, he thought the martial arts practitioner in the Golden Elixir would be in torpor for a long while, but Xu Zhong recovered from it in a short moment.

“B*stard, what did you do just now... can it be the legendary Soul attack... how can it be possible...” Xu Zhong continued to float in the air. Both his legs had been amputated. Blood fell like raindrops onto the ground. He looked at Mo Wen in shock, like he had seen a ghost. For a moment just now, he had even thought that he was already dead.

It must have been a Soul attack! Xu Zhong was taken aback. Wasn’t the person using the Soul attack supposed to be an Immortal Cultivator who is in Primordial Soul realm and above? A martial arts practitioner was unable to do it. Even the Martial Arts Grandmaster couldn’t. It was simply unbelievable that this youngster had actually used the soul attack. It was almost the same as seeing a ghost in the daytime; simply unbelievable.

If Mo Wen was an Immortal Cultivator and an Immortal Cultivator in the Primordial Soul realm, he would be able to crush me simply with his finger. It was a surprise that he had been able to fight Mo Wen for such a long time.

“You actually know about Soul attack?” There was some shock in Mo Wen’s eyes. It was certainly true that ancient martial arts practitioners in the Inner World had extraordinary knowledge and were way more knowledgeable than the martial arts practitioners in the main space.

“How did you do it?” Xu Zhong’s eyes were fixed on Mo Wen. His eyes were filled with apprehension like Mo Wen was a devil.

Since a young age, his talents had been outstanding. His soul was different from a normal person so his strength was equivalent to twice that of a normal person. Hence, his practicing of the martial arts had always been smooth-sailing and he had become a strong expert of the generation who had broken through to the Golden Elixir realm tens of years ago.

After he had read a voluminous amount of information, he understood the reason for his superb talents. At the same time, he also knew what Soul power was, together with other things related to the Immortal Cultivators.

Due to this talent, his Soul power was already equivalent to one in the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm although he was merely a martial arts practitioner in the beginning stage of the Golden Elixir realm.

However, even so, he still hadn’t managed to resist Mo Wen’s Soul attack. How strong exactly was that youngster’s Soul power?

“How I do it is none of your concerns. Perhaps you can ask the King of Hell when you go to the netherworld.” Mo Wen was not interested in explaining anything to Xu Zhong. His figure flashed and once again moved to attack. It was time for the martial arts practitioner in the Golden Elixir realm to die.

“Little brute, you just wait.” Xu Zhong’s face changed slightly. After uttering the harsh words, he frantically activated his Inner Qi to run away. He no longer had the courage to fight Mo Wen. After losing his legs, his fighting capacity was greatly reduced.

Moreover, that youngster was too strange as he actually could release such a frightening Soul attack. Xu Zhong no longer had the courage to fight with him again. Although the treasures were very attractive, what would be the point of having those treasures if he was dead?

“Stop!” The corner of Mo Wen’s lips curled into a sardonic smile as he chased unhurriedly. A golden light flashed in his eyes as he uttered the word tepidly. After that, Xu Zhong’s body trembled again and came to an abrupt stop.
