"Dong Ming, are you questioning me?"
Elder Hu's face sank slightly when he heard Dong Ming.
"I didn't mean that … I just wanted to remind Elder Hu that if it wasn't for me, it would be impossible for you to enter the Sword Monarch's Treasure."
Dong Ming spoke out.
His words undoubtedly expressed a meaning.
If it wasn't for me possessing the key to the Sword Monarch's Treasure, if it wasn't for me bringing you here, it would be utterly impossible for an old fellow like you to encroach on the Sword Monarch's Treasure.
Dong Ming's words caused Elder Hu's expression to become even more gloomy.
For a time, he wanted to flare up.
But when his gaze inadvertently flashed past the two people that were calmly looking at him and Dong Ming on the ground, he couldn't help but suppress his rage.
He took a deep breath and didn't directly shed all pretenses with Dong Ming.
"I naturally remember that agreement … But I didn't obtain anything from the third level of the Sword Monarch's Treasure this time, so how can I split the treasures equally with you?"
Elder Hu's expression recovered its calm as he spoke indifferently.
The current Elder Hu was like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
You have a good plan, I have a way out!
It was more or less like this.
"You didn't obtain anything?"
Dong Ming's face went grim.
Elder Hu's shamelessness had exceeded his imagination.
"Elder Hu, according to my knowledge, the first test you entered the third level was to give you a spirit sword … It's best if it's a grade one spirit sword, and the worst is a grade three spirit sword. Now, you're telling me that you didn't obtain any treasures in the third level? Do you think I would believe you?! "
As he finished speaking, Dong Ming's tone carried slight rage, and he'd completely shed all pretenses. "Or perhaps, you think I'm easy to fool?"
"I don't know what you're talking about. What spirit sword? I don't know anything."
Slight astonishment flashed deep within Elder Hu's gaze, and he was obviously surprised that Dong Ming actually knew what he'd encountered.
But his expression still remained unchanged as he continued.
If it was someone that didn't know, then perhaps they would really be deceived by him.
But was it possible for him to deceive Dong Ming who'd already understood the test of the third level?
"Elder Hu, I can give up on the spirit sword you obtained … But please take out the other treasures you obtained."
Dong Ming spoke directly and straightforwardly.
"Hmph! I've already said that I didn't obtain any treasures. If you dare to continue blabbering, I'll definitely kill you. "
Elder Hu said with a sullen face. His words were full of threats.
"Hahahaha …"
Suddenly, Dong Ming roared with laughter, and his laughter was filled with slight sorrow. "I truly never imagined that Elder Hu would change just like that in the face of absolute benefits! If I knew earlier, then even if I brought a dog to the Sword Monarch's Treasure, it would still be better than bringing you. "
"You … You dare to call me worse than a dog?"
Elder Hu's expression changed greatly. The Origin Energy on his body skyrocketed like a ball of extremely violent white flames, and he was ready to rush up and swallow Dong Ming at any time.
"Is it not?"
After Dong Ming shed all pretense of cordiality, he no longer had any misgivings. "If you don't think so, do you dare to remove the ownership of the Spatial Ring in your hand and show it to me? If there isn't a Third Grade Spirit Artifact or above, I will definitely not pester you anymore. "
"Dong Ming, if you still don't move aside, then you'll surely die a graveless death!"
Dong Ming's every word made Elder Hu's face turn uglier. In the end, Elder Hu completely exploded.
The Origin Energy on his body was even more profound, and the power of intent was faintly discernible.
He immediately intended to make a move and kill Dong Ming.
"Dong Ming, where did you find this old fellow? He's actually so shameless."
Suddenly, Duan Lingtian had already soared into the sky to stand by Dong Ming's side, and he shrugged as he spoke lazily.
"You!!"
When he saw Duan Lingtian wanted to stand out for Dong Ming, Elder Hu's face went grim, and slight fear appeared between his brows.
He wasn't afraid of Duan Lingtian.
He was afraid of the young woman by Duan Lingtian's side.
Even if he obtained some gains in the third level of the Sword Monarch's Treasure and his strength had improved greatly, he felt that he was far from being a match for the young woman.
The gap between the Void Initiation Stage and Void Interpretation Stage was too great, and it was like a chasm that was impossible to surmount.
"What about me?"
Duan Lingtian glanced lazily at Elder Hu as he asked indifferently.
"This matter is a private matter between me and Dong Ming, so please don't interfere."
Elder Hu took a deep breath and worked hard to suppress the flames of rage in his heart.
"What if I insist on interfering?"
Suddenly, Duan Lingtian's face was covered in a smile.
His smile was bright and resplendent, yet when it entered into the eyes of Elder Hu, it caused his expression to be unable to refrain from going grim.
But Elder Hu's expression quickly calmed down, and he glared fiercely at Dong Ming as he said via voice transmission, "Dong Ming, you win! I'll spare your life today, but you won't be so lucky in the future. "
As soon as he finished speaking, Elder Hu soared into the sky and intended to leave.
When they saw Elder Hu about to leave, Duan Lingtian and Dong Ming stood on the spot without making any movements.
Right at this moment.
Whoosh!
A cold wind that was filled with an icy cold aura blew by, and a beautiful figure appeared at the entrance of the Sword Monarch's Treasure.
This was a yellow clothed young woman, and as she stood there, the surrounding air seemed to be frozen by the icy cold aura emitted from her body …
The young woman had a beautiful appearance, and it could be imagined that she would surely be a drop dead gorgeous beauty when she grew up.
"Young Miss Xue Nai."
When he saw the young woman appear and obstruct his path, Elder Hu took a deep breath and said slowly, "I've already decided not to make things difficult for Dong Ming any longer. I wonder what you want to do?"
"Do what?"
The yellow clothed young woman was precisely Han Xuenai, and when she heard Elder Hu, a devilish smile bloomed on her face. "Of course it's to kill you!"
Practically at the instant Han Xuenai finished speaking, the surrounding air became slightly icy cold once more.
Elder Hu's face went grim.
Right at this instant.
Whoosh!
Han Xuenai made a move. With a raise of her hand, strong winds that were icy cold to the extreme swept out and enveloped Elder Hu from all directions, causing Elder Hu to have no place to flee.
"No!!"
Elder Hu's face went grim as he cried out in sorrow, and the Origin Energy beneath his feet skyrocketed as he wanted to flee before he was frozen into an ice sculpture.
But would he be able to flee?
Needless to say, the speed of an eighth level Void Initiation Stage martial artist was extremely swift.
But would it be swift enough to surpass the speed of a Void Interpretation Stage expert like Han Xuenai?
The answer was no.
Swish! Swish!
The strong winds that were icy cold to the extreme swept out and covered Elder Hu's body, causing him to have nowhere to flee.
In the next moment, Elder Hu's body stiffened as he stopped on the spot and transformed into a lifelike ice sculpture.
Through the layer of ice, one could see that Elder Hu's pupils had constricted and his face was covered in a panicked expression, and this obviously showed how terrified and despaired he was before he transformed into an ice sculpture.
The Origin Energy on Elder Hu who was frozen into an ice sculpture was gradually obliterated, and in the end, it transformed into nothingness.
Meanwhile, the ice sculpture fell to the ground with a bang, and it transformed into pieces that covered the entire ground.
Eighth level Void Initiation Stage martial artist, dead!
Whoosh ~
Along with Han Xuenai raising her hand, a piece of ice on the ground flew up and descended into her hand, and there was a Spatial Ring within it.
Through the layer of ice, one could see that the Spatial Ring was extremely ancient, and its grade wasn't low.
Whoosh!
At the instant Han Xuenai spoke, Origin Energy bloomed from her hand, and the ice gradually melted to only leave behind the Spatial Ring in the end.
"Here!"
With a raise of her hand, Han Xuenai tossed the Spatial Ring in her hand to Dong Ming.
Dong Ming hurriedly received it and looked at Han Xuenai with gratitude. "Thank you, Young Miss Xue Nai! Thank you, Young Miss Xue Nai! "
"You've helped Big Brother Ling Tian, and he wants to help you as well, so I naturally won't stand by idly."
Han Xuenai nodded indifferently.
Duan Lingtian stood at the side and smiled lightly. "Xue Nai, we ought to leave as well."
Xue Nai smiled as she replied, and then she soared into the sky to leave the Sword Monarch's Treasure with Duan Lingtian and Dong Ming, and they passed through the door that was enveloped by the Inscription Formation to once again return to the depths of the sea.
On the other hand, the colossus that lay there at the entrance of the Sword Monarch's Treasure had finally moved.
"Big guy!"
Xue Nai was the first to fly out and descend onto the colossus' back.
"Aowu ~"
When it saw Han Xuenai, the colossus cried out in a low voice, and its voice contained slight trembling mixed within. Obviously, it was traumatized in its heart.
The colossus was precisely the Three-Eyed Flame Tiger, the Empire Guardian Demon Beast of the Darkstone Empire.
On the other hand, Duan Lingtian and Dong Ming returned to the back of the Three-Eyed Flame Tiger as well, and they didn't have to worry about being unable to resist the pressure of the depths of the sea while being enveloped by the Origin Energy barrier of the Three-Eyed Flame Tiger.
"Big guy, let's go!"
Along with Xue Nai speaking, the Three-Eyed Flame Tiger's limbs stomped on the ground.
Rumble! Rumble!
…
At the depths of the sea, the ground quaked and the mountains swayed.
The Three-Eyed Flame Tiger transformed into a swift flowing light that flashed upwards. Everywhere it passed, the seawater split apart and spread towards the sides, and it swept out extremely vast.
Not long after, Duan Lingtian and the others rode on the Three-Eyed Flame Tiger to leave the boundlessly vast sea and return to the surface of the sea.
All along the way, even though they'd encountered many ferocious beasts at the bottom of the sea, all of them were directly annihilated by the Three-Eyed Flame Tiger.
As for demon beasts, they'd been terrified to the point of hiding at the side since long ago when facing a terrifying existence like the Three-Eyed Flame Tiger.
This expanse of sea wasn't far from Cloud Continent, and the strength of the demon beasts that concealed themselves here was ordinary.
If the Three-Eyed Flame Tiger was willing, it was entirely capable of dominating this expanse of sea with its formidable strength.
"Big fellow, let's return to the Darkstone Empire first."
Duan Lingtian said to the Three-Eyed Flame Tiger.
He intended to send Dong Ming back first before returning to the Darkhan Dynasty's Capital.
"Unknowingly, another few months have passed … The Dynasty Martial Competition is getting closer and closer."
Duan Lingtian looked towards the direction of the Darkhan Dynasty, and his gaze flickered as he muttered in his heart.
After notifying Xue Nai and Dong Ming, Duan Lingtian sat cross-legged on the back of the Three-Eyed Flame Tiger and started cultivating.
Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, Earth Dragon Form!
At the same time, a milky white stone appeared in Duan Lingtian's hand, and it was precisely the low grade Origin Stone he'd obtained from the Sword Monarch's Treasure.
Presently, Duan Lingtian held the low grade Origin Stone and absorbed the condensed spirit energy within the Origin Stone to cultivate, causing his cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds, and it couldn't be compared to before.
As he felt the vast Origin Energy within his body, the corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth curled into a faint smile.
Low grade Origin Stones were completely exhausted by Duan Lingtian one after another.
