A Good Romance
.bqg6.cc
Ling Han's ability to attract trouble was still there, and he would always encounter spoilt young masters with astonishing backgrounds. Some coveted the Empress's beauty, and some were purely looking for trouble. Naturally, all of them were suppressed by Ling Han.
In just a few months' time, the number of spoilt young masters that died at his hands numbered in the hundreds.
It could be imagined how many ninth heaven Celestial Kings in this Yuan Ancient Tomb wanted to take him down and cut off his head.
Yet Ling Han was indifferent. He was even slightly looking forward to encountering a ninth heaven Celestial King. A fierce battle with such an elite would definitely make him feel endless pressure, and he would rise to the ninth heaven even faster.
The three of them walked out of the Leylin region, passed through an endless river, crossed over a large snowy mountain, and finally entered a plain. Only then did the grass reach their ankles, and it was soft and very comfortable to step on.
But on this plain, there was the blood of a Celestial King, and even the blood had dyed a large area of the grass red.
It was very strange. How domineering was the blood of a Celestial King? If it touched a stone, the stone would immediately turn into dust, and if it touched a plant, the plant should also explode. How could it possibly be like the blood of a mortal?
Ling Han bent down to observe. After a while, he frowned, and said, "The domineering power in the blood has already been erased, and there is only the might of a Celestial King, but it is really useless."
"Where are the corpses?" the Empress asked.
They searched everywhere, but did not see the corpses of Celestial Kings.
"Strange, could it be that no Celestial Kings have fallen?"
There were traces of a great battle here. Large areas of the plain had been turned into ruins, but the strange thing was that there was only the blood of Celestial Kings, but not the corpses of Celestial Kings. It seemed to be inconsistent with such a great battle.
"Be careful," Bewitching Maiden Rou said.
Yet the Empress was overflowing with fighting spirit. She had not fought for a very long time.
They continued to advance. The plain was boundless, and there seemed to be no end.
Boom!
Suddenly, the ground broke open, and a giant spear that was 30 meters long suddenly poked out from the ground. Then, it ruthlessly smashed towards Ling Han and the others. The spear was entwined with great dao, and even if it did not pierce them, merely being shaken by the ripples of great dao would be enough to choke them.
The Empress humphed, and slashed with her sword.
The sword struck the gigantic spear. An Immortal artifact was indestructible. Only an Immortal artifact or a ninth-firmament Immortal King could withstand it. The gigantic spear was immediately broken by the sword and gray liquid sprayed out.
However, the Queen was also sent flying. The impact of the spear was too strong, far exceeding the Queen's.
With a squeak, a huge creature suddenly burrowed out of the ground. It was a six-legged insect, but it was huge in size. Its body was about 60 meters long, but now only one of its two front legs remained. It was as sharp as a spear, because the other had been cut off by the Queen.
Its entire body was covered in black scales and was surrounded by the death aura of the Netherworld. It looked like a monster that had crawled out of the Netherworld.
It fixed its eyes on the Empress. Gray blood was currently flowing from her severed foot, but it soon stopped. A dim light surged, and this severed foot was currently regrowing. In just a breath's time, it had completely regrown.
The gigantic insect screeched, and suddenly sprang out of its four legs, pouncing towards the Empress. Its two front legs moved at the same time, slashing towards the Empress's delicate neck.
Ling Han humphed softly. His figure flashed, and he had already blocked the path of the gigantic insect. He stretched out his right hand, and grabbed towards the gigantic insect.
The gigantic insect naturally couldn't ignore him. One of its front legs changed the direction of its slash, and slashed down towards Ling Han.
Ling Han condensed his right hand, and the Greenwood Berserk Thunder circulated. With the addition of the power of the Nine Transformations Heaven Scroll, he punched out.
The gigantic foot was as large as a heavenly spear, and Ling Han's fist couldn't even be compared to it. It seemed like there was no need to know what the result would be. But when the gigantic foot really slashed onto Ling Han's fist, there was a flash of brilliant light, and this gigantic foot actually rebounded.
Ka, a crack appeared on the gigantic foot, and then rapidly expanded. In just an instant, it covered the entire gigantic foot. Pa, this gigantic foot actually completely collapsed.
This caused the gigantic insect so much pain that it kept making strange cries. Balls of Nine Underworld Flame surged out of its body, showing its intense fury.
But this time, the gigantic insect didn't immediately launch an attack. Instead, it stared at Ling Han, its lantern-sized eyes exuding a look of wariness. Though it was a violent being, it had an instinctive sense of danger, and thought that Ling Han was very powerful, so it couldn't act rashly.
Yet Ling Han wouldn't give it a chance to catch its breath. His figure continued to charge out, and a punch directly shot towards the gigantic insect's head.
The gigantic worm hurriedly waved its front legs to parry Ling Han's attack. Peng, how could this possibly block Ling Han's attack? His fist blasted through the thick armor, and his whole body charged straight in. Under the entanglement of azure lightning, Ling Han entered the gigantic worm's skull.
The gigantic insect's movements immediately came to a screeching halt, and then crashed to the ground. Pa, a hole had been blasted open in its carapace. Ling Han strode out, green divine lightning weaving around him. There wasn't a single speck of dirt on his body.
"The corpses of those Celestial Kings should have been eaten by these things, right?" Bewitching Maiden Rou said.
Ling Han nodded. Many Celestial Kings must have died here. Now that the corpses were gone, they must have been buried in the stomachs of these gigantic insects.
He grabbed a gigantic foot's leg and studied it carefully. A look of surprise appeared on his face, and he said, "There are many thin thorns on this leg, and they're hollow. With one slash, countless thorns will pierce into the body, and the essence in the blood will be absorbed."
In this way, even if the blood of a Celestial King was sprinkled, it would only be ordinary blood, and it would be difficult to cause any damage.
"Let's go."
But they didn't go far before new gigantic insects appeared to ambush them.
If these insects hid underground, they would have no aura at all, and they wouldn't be discovered at all. They would only be discovered when the gigantic foot broke through the ground to attack. For Celestial Kings of the Fifth and Sixth Heavens, it was already too late.
Fortunately, Ling Han and the others weren't ordinary Celestial Kings of the Fourth and Fifth Heavens, so they were completely capable of dealing with them.
A dozen or so days later, they finally walked out of this plain. In front of them was a small river, spanned by a wooden bridge, and beside the bridge was a small thatched cottage. An old man was sitting in front of the cottage, smoking a hookah that was bubbling.
In front of the old man, there was a large group of people surrounding him. All of them wore worried expressions as if they had encountered an extremely difficult matter.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the old man was playing chess with someone else. He seemed to have extraordinary chess skills, so he had the leisure to smoke a hookah. His opponent, on the other hand, was dumbfounded, his brows tightly furrowed.
What was going on?
Ling Han patted the shoulder of the person in front of him, and said, "Bro, what are you doing?"
The man was startled. He didn't even realize that someone was so close to him. If the other party hadn't patted his shoulder just now, but had launched a fatal attack on him, wouldn't he be dead now?
However, when he found that Ling Han's cultivation was only at the Fifth Heavens, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After all, he was also at the Sixth Heavens.
Well, he must have been too focused on the chess game just now, so this kid took advantage of the situation.
According to his temper, he should have ignored Ling Han. A mere Fifth Heavens dared to question a Sixth Heavens, but when he saw Ling Han's dignified expression, he somehow changed his mind, and said, "If you want to cross the river, you must win against that old man."
