As the sound of his voice faded, Huang Hanling's eyes narrowed as a dazzling immortal light radiated from him, so cold that it seeped into the bones.
Trash from the Nine Emperors Immortal State?
Killing him within three moves?
The words of this Qin Wentian were simply arrogant to the point that he had no way to accept it.
Although he, Huang Hanling, couldn't be considered the one with the highest talent among the princes of the Nine Emperors Immortal State, his combat prowess was definitely one of the strongest. If not, he wouldn't have appeared in the Myriad Devil Islands during the adjudication battle.
When he was at the peak of the ninth-level, the Tiandao Sacred Academy hadn't opened yet and Huang Shatian was only at the seventh-level. But at that time, Huang Shatian's status was already as high as the sun in the sky. This had always made Huang Hanling unhappy.
This man before him was at the same level as Huang Shatian back then, yet he actually dared to say that he was trash?
"I've decided now, I won't let you die so easily." Huang Hanling coldly spoke. As the sound of his voice faded, the sharpest human-emperor immortal light frenziedly blasted out, engulfing everything in an instant. Qin Wentian was surrounded by the ancient runes as a resplendent light enveloped his entire body. This was especially so for the human-emperor immortal light.
Qin Wentian gripped the ancient halberd tightly as he lightly stepped forward. At the instant his foot landed, a destructive Shadow of a great roc manifested on the ancient halberd.
The energy of the God's Hand flowed unceasingly into the ancient halberd, causing the might it exuded to grow stronger and stronger.
Huang Hanling furrowed his brows as a supreme human-emperor immortal light radiated from him. At this instant, this entire space was enveloped by the golden emperor light. It was as though everything within this golden light was his law energy.
"If you want to kill me, you will have to walk out from my law energy first." Huang Hanling said. Then, he pointed his finger forward, and suddenly, many Renhuang silhouettes appeared in the boundless rules. They all slashed at Qin Wentian with terrifying Renhuang swords.
Qin Wentian stood in the center of the law energy. This was the energy radiating from Huang Hanling, manifested from law energy. Huang Hanling had already stepped through that threshold and had done so for many years. Yet, Qin Wentian actually still dared to be so arrogant before him?
"Boom!" A blood-colored light seemed to flow on Qin Wentian's body. He took another step forward and directly charged towards Huang Hanling. He was like a heavenly roc, like a bolt of lightning.
The ancient halberd pierced out, causing Huang Hanling's countenance to change. Had this Qin Wentian gone mad? Not only did Qin Wentian ignore his rules, he even wanted to kill him?
"Boom!" An extremely powerful law energy enveloped his body. He was clad in a Renhuang armor of rules, looking like an unparalleled Renhuang. He slashed out with his sword towards the incoming Qin Wentian.
The ancient halberd collided with the sword. A black destructive roc shot out, like the sword of a heavenly roc, shattering his opponent's sword. Huang Hanling's ancient halberd advanced step by step, breaking through all the other forces.
"You are courting death!" Huang Hanling roared. The surrounding Renhuang swords had already arrived, slashing towards Qin Wentian's body. Accompanied by the sounds of slashing, the swords slashed onto Qin Wentian's body. However, Qin Wentian's ancient halberd broke through all defenses, directly piercing through Huang Hanling's Renhuang armor.
An intense pain spread through his body. Huang Hanling's countenance instantly turned as pale as paper. The destructive power began to wreak havoc in his body. The ancient halberd penetrated through everything, killing its way into his body.
"Pfft." With a muffled groan, blood flowed from the corner of Huang Hanling's mouth. His eyes stared fixedly at Qin Wentian. Was this person a lunatic?
"You would rather die than kill me?" Huang Hanling's voice was bone-chilling. Those Renhuang swords slashed onto Qin Wentian. Did Qin Wentian want to perish together with him?
"You overestimate yourself too much." Qin Wentian faintly spoke. A terrifying divine glow erupted from his body as the Renhuang swords fell onto the ground. They couldn't even break through the defenses of his body. How could this be considered perishing together?
Huang Hanling didn't even injure or kill Qin Wentian.
"Three moves? Seems like I've overestimated you." As the sound of Qin Wentian's voice faded, the destructive might of the ancient halberd in his hand completely erupted forth. Even the ancient halberd itself transformed into destructive energy that permeated Huang Hanling's body, breaking his immortal-foundation and extinguishing his vitality. Huang Hanling's countenance turned ashen as fresh blood flowed unceasingly from the corner of his mouth. After that, his body slumped to the ground powerlessly.
Qin Wentian squatted down and collected all the interspatial rings on Huang Hanling's body. As a prince of the Nine Emperors Immortal State, Huang Hanling should still have some wealth.
The devil generals in the surroundings stared at Qin Wentian's actions as their hearts trembled uncontrollably. When Huang Hanling unleashed his strength, they could clearly sense how strong he was.
However, he only managed to kill him with a single strike.
Leaving aside three strikes, the protector of the third-ranked devil general Zong Yan, Huang Hanling, was killed by Qin Wentian with just a single strike.
This truly caused the hearts of everyone to tremble.
Juyu's black eyes flashed. She didn't expect Qin Wentian to be so powerful, killing a protector of the third-ranked devil general Zong Yan. This indicated that Qin Wentian's strength should be above hers.
Lu Xuejia who was spectating from the side also froze. She initially thought that this battle would be Qin Wentian's final battle. Maybe Qin Wentian would be able to struggle for a period of time, but she would never have imagined such an ending.
With just a single strike, Qin Wentian insta-killed Zong Yan's protector.
This meant that if she didn't give up on Qin Wentian earlier, with the protectors of the twenty-eight devil generals, there would be no one who would be able to do anything to Qin Wentian. He could sweep through them all and even challenge the devil generals for her.
Zong Yan's expression was extremely cold. Huang Hanling was actually killed by Qin Wentian.
This time around, he had high hopes for his protector Huang Hanling. Huang Hanling could help him block the challenges from the later devil generals and probe the strength of the first and second devil generals. As for him, he only needed to focus fully on challenging the first-ranked and second-ranked devil generals.
But now, Huang Hanling was dead. This meant that there was no one else to help him block the challenges from the later devil generals. He had to expend a lot of energy to deal with them.
However, Qin Wentian wouldn't care about what they were thinking. He left Huang Hanling's corpse there and returned to Juyu's side.
After killing Huang Hanling, he seemed to have taken a small step closer to victory in the adjudication battle.
"Clean this up." Zong Yan coldly spoke. His subordinates brought Huang Hanling's corpse away while Zong Yan's eyes turned to Qin Wentian and Juyu.
"Do you want me to help you challenge the devil generals?" Qin Wentian transmitted his voice to Juyu.
Just like what Juyu said, as the last-ranked devil general, it was impossible for her to win against the other six generals here.
"No need. I've already said it before. It's already beyond my expectations to reach this step. It's not suitable for me to advance any further." Juyu replied, "Your strength has also surpassed my expectations. You will become a devil general sooner or later. I will consider if I should give my position as a devil general to you."
As they transmitted their voices, Zong Yan had already stepped out. He stood with his hands clasped behind his back, exuding a cold aura as he stared at Juyu.
"Careful, he has killing intent." Qin Wentian transmitted his voice to Juyu.
Juyu nodded. She stepped out and spoke, "I know I'm not a match for you, third-ranked devil general. Hence, I concede."
Juyu was also a very decisive person. Although she would become the seventh-ranked devil general if there were no accidents and it would be very embarrassing to admit defeat, in the world of devil cultivators, survival meant everything.
She clearly knew that Zong Yan had killing intent towards her, but why would she fight? As long as they fought, Zong Yan would definitely kill her without mercy. Hence, she might as well not give Zong Yan such a chance.
"Juyu, you have already reached here. At the very least, you will become the seventh-ranked devil general. In such a battlefield, how can we allow you to give up just because you're afraid to fight? My Blackstone Devil Sect would rather kill such a devil general than to allow him to exist." Zong Yan coldly spoke. As the sound of his voice faded, he stepped out.
Even if Juyu retreated, he still wouldn't give up.
As the third-ranked devil general, how could he care about the last-ranked devil general? Since his killing intent was already stirred, how could he allow Juyu to retreat safely?
"General Zong Yan, what do you want?" Juyu's expression changed.
"I don't want anything, it's just a battle between devil generals." Zong Yan stepped out again. In an instant, a terrifying might akin to doomsday descended. His body abruptly flickered with black flames of destruction, enveloping the entire battlefield. His palm grabbed out in the air as the black devil flames incinerated everything. Juyu's countenance changed unceasingly, her devil armor glowed with a resplendent light as she defended against this power.
Qin Wentian's expression changed. Juyu didn't want to continue and would rather admit defeat. But Zong Yan clearly didn't want to spare her.
In addition, Qin Wentian saw that the first-ranked devil general was still calmly sitting on the war chariot, while the second-ranked devil general was coldly smiling as he watched this battle. Neither of them had any intention to interfere.
The battles in the devil sect were originally extremely cruel. It was extremely normal for one side to die or the other to live. As the last-ranked devil general, Juyu shouldn't have appeared in this position. Zong Yan's words weren't wrong, this was also the reason why Juyu didn't want to continue advancing. In this devil sect where everyone believed in strength, without sufficient strength, you wouldn't be able to obtain the corresponding respect. Even if she wanted to admit defeat, Zong Yan wouldn't agree.
"RUMBLE!" Destructive energy gushed forth, wanting to incinerate this entire space. That gust of devil flames felt extremely unbearable. Juyu retreated backwards, wanting to leave the battlefield.
This battle, she definitely couldn't fight.
Lu Xuejia's eyes flashed when she saw this scene. As expected, the third-ranked devil general Zong Yan was enraged. Her predictions were right, even if she chose Qin Wentian as her protector, how would Zong Yan spare her?
Naturally, if it was her, Lu Xuejia, who became the seventh-ranked devil general, as long as Qin Wentian died in battle, Zong Yan wouldn't make things difficult for her.
But for Juyu, she managed to reach this position. Qin Wentian even killed Zong Yan's protector, Huang Hanling.
How could the tyrannical third-ranked devil general spare Juyu?
Zong Yan spun his devil-foundation as a black destructive devil flame spear appeared, directly stabbing out. Juyu frenziedly defended, her devil shield glowed with resplendent light. The sound of impact rang out as the devil shield was directly shattered into pieces. At the same time, Juyu was forced backwards from the impact.
Zong Yan continued to step forward, his pitch-black eyes exceptionally cold!
