Qin Wentian wasn't willing to waste time on killing. His purpose for coming to the Dongshengxian Gate was very clear, he wanted to participate in the Heavenly Talisman Realm's tempering exercise.
And during the tempering exercise, raising his strength as much as possible was naturally Qin Wentian's priority.
In the Eastern Sage Cliff, he comprehended many things and obtained many cultivation arts. This was especially so after he comprehended the immortal statue and obtained an immortal king inheritance battle art. His comprehension was extremely deep and he managed to cultivate it all the way to the third level.
In this Sage Devil Gorge, since there were no opportunities for cultivation, he would rather focus on comprehending them. If there were any disciples of the Dongshengxian Gate who wanted to use his life as a stepping stone, they better be prepared to pay the price.
Qin Wentian left the corpse of a disciple of the Dongshengxian Gate behind. This was to deter others from disturbing him.
However, Qin Wentian was wrong. After a period of time, two outer sect disciples of the Dongshengxian Gate arrived. When they saw the corpse, their gazes were extremely cold when they stared at Qin Wentian. This wasn't because they had a deep relationship with each other.
There were countless disciples in the Dongshengxian Gate and each of them was competing against each other, trying to obtain more cultivation resources or be valued by the elders of the sect. The internal competition was extremely intense.
But when they saw the corpse of a fellow disciple lying there, being used by Qin Wentian to deter them, their killing intent instantly gushed forth.
"How dare you." An expert spoke in cold arrogance. His gaze was as cold as ice, piercing towards Qin Wentian. The person beside him also had a sinister expression as his killing intent surged forth.
Qin Wentian halted his cultivation and opened his eyes again, staring at the person who just arrived.
"You haven't even entered the Dongshengxian Gate yet you actually dare to use the corpse of a disciple of the Dongshengxian Gate to threaten us? Are you not afraid of dying without a burial?" That person continued. Qin Wentian stared at him and asked, "He wanted to kill me. Should I give him a proper burial after I kill him?"
"Arrogant, this is a humiliation to the disciples of the Dongshengxian Gate. No matter what, you will die for sure. Even if the two of us can't kill you, we will make sure you die here." Another person spoke. Since Qin Wentian could kill an outer sect disciple, his strength must be extraordinary. Hence, they didn't dare to say that they could definitely kill Qin Wentian.
One of them took out a treasure that shot out a beam of golden light that soared up into the sky. Instantly, many disciples of the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect turned their gazes over as their countenances stiffened. Some of the core disciples in golden robes had sharp gazes as they stared at the golden beam of light in the air.
Qin Wentian Qin Wentian Qin Wentian Gate was.
Many people looked down at the golden light. Some of them could see the floating light spot and immediately understood that this person's cultivation was the same as theirs. Immediately, the people around them flickered and rushed in that direction.
At the same time, some people who participated in the trial like Qin Wentian had strange expressions on their faces. The people around them also rushed in that direction.
Qin Wentian was still indifferent. He looked at the light and coldly stared at that person. He didn't do anything, he wasn't in a hurry to deal with that person.
Regardless of whether it was the outer sect disciples or the core disciples of the Dongshengxian Gate, he didn't feel any fear. To him, since he wanted to be one of the top three, it meant that he had the talent of the Son. The Son was a disciple of the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor. They had the highest status among the disciples of the Dongshengxian Gate. Qin Wentian wanted to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Son, so why would he care about the so-called outer sect disciples and core disciples?
In the same realm, no matter who came, he wasn't afraid, unless the other party attacked in groups.
The two experts who arrived first didn't do anything. They just stared at Qin Wentian from both sides, as if they were just monitoring him and not letting him leave. However, they didn't know that if Qin Wentian wanted to leave, they wouldn't be able to stop him.
After a while, another two outer sect disciples came. They saw the corpses by the river and immediately understood what was going on. They stared at Qin Wentian with a cold expression and said, "You haven't even entered the Dongshengxian Gate and you're already so arrogant. What a bold madman."
Qin Wentian looked at the people who came one by one strangely and frowned. This was the cruel Iron and Blood test. These disciples of the Dongshengxian Gate were here to kill him, including the person who came to take his life. But now, these people were calling him a madman.
Could it be that in the eyes of these disciples who had already entered the Dongshengxian Gate, only they were here to hunt and kill?
Could it be that after these people killed him, Qin Wentian, they would give him a proper burial?
"Ignorant fool." Another voice drifted over. Qin Wentian glanced ahead only to see a disciple of the Dongshengxian Gate clad in golden robes walking over. The robes of the five of them were very similar and had the same pattern engraved on them. It was just that the color was different. This immediately made Qin Wentian understand that these people who came to the Saint Devil Canyon to kill them all had different statuses. Some were outer sect disciples, while some were core disciples.
There were a lot of people in light golden robes, so they should be outer sect disciples.
The person who came was even more arrogant and his aura was even stronger. He walked in the middle and should be a core disciple. His status was obvious with a single glance.
"Although you are here to participate in the recruitment test, you have yet to join the sect. You should have a heart filled with reverence for the disciples of the Dongshengxian Gate. Yet you actually dared to use the identity of a disciple of the Dongshengxian Gate to threaten us? Foolish to the extreme." That expert who walked over coldly spoke, his tone filled with arrogance. He was a core disciple and had an extremely high status. There were many outer sect disciples of the Dongshengxian Gate but it was extremely difficult for one to become a core disciple.
This time around, how many geniuses from the thirteen prefectures were participating? The competition started from the thirteen prefectures, all for the sake of entering the Dongshengxian Gate. Becoming an outer sect disciple was already something to be proud of. Only the last hundred plus would be able to become a core disciple.
And as for him, he was already a core disciple, someone who was truly recognized by the sect. Not only that, he had already cultivated in the Dongshengxian Gate for a few years. His talent was outstanding and he naturally had the qualifications to be arrogant. For this hunt, the mission of core disciples wasn't to kill randomly. They could choose their targets and for those with true talent, even if they could defeat them, they had to consider sparing them. This was their mission.
Only the mission of the outer sect disciples was to kill. If they could be killed by an outer sect disciple, there was nothing to feel regretful about even if they died.
As for the elite disciples, their purpose was only to monitor the entire Sage Devil Gorge.
Qin Wentian stared at the person who just arrived. That person walked over step by step as he spoke, "Even if you truly have talent, you can forget about leaving this place alive. Your corpse will be hung on the branches of a tree. This is the punishment for daring to use the corpse of a disciple of the Dongshengxian Gate to threaten us."
"How laughable." Qin Wentian kept listening to the arrogance of the other party, as though it was only natural that he, Qin Wentian, would be hunted down. And since he killed a disciple of the Dongshengxian Gate, using this person to threaten them was an unpardonable crime, a crime worthy of death. There were so many experts who came here just to kill him.
"When you die, you most probably won't find it funny anymore." The other party continued.
Qin Wentian slowly stood up as his aura gushed forth. He stared at the four of them, his eyes gleaming with incomparable arrogance as he stood there proudly. It was as though he was the main character of this world.
"In the Sage Devil Gorge, the Dongshengxian Gate hunted us participants. This is a cold-blooded and cruel trial. In here, strength is everything. If you are weak, only death awaits you. If I am weak, the corpse lying on the ground right now would be me. Now, you guys are using this to suppress me. You guys think that because you are a disciple of the Dongshengxian Gate, your status is higher than me, and your strength is stronger than me. That's why you guys are speaking so confidently and with assurance, thinking that you're above everyone else."
Qin Wentian swept his gaze over everyone as he floated up into the air. His eyes gleamed with a blood-red light, exuding an incomparably cold arrogance.
"You guys want my life yet you're still talking to me about reverence? How ridiculous. I really want to see how the five of you can take my life away." Qin Wentian floated in the air, staring down at the five experts of the Dongshengxian Gate. With a thunderous boom, a battle halo flashed as the first level of his battle art was unleashed. He was like a battle king as his entire body underwent a transformation, exuding an extremely terrifying aura.
That core disciple inclined his head and stared at the insufferably arrogant Qin Wentian as he spoke with cold arrogance, "No wonder you have the strength to kill an outer disciple. But if you think that you don't have any reverence in your heart just because of this, you would truly overestimate yourself. Kill him."
As the sound of his voice faded, the four outer disciples simultaneously soared up into the air as their terrifying auras engulfed the entire space. Different constellations were released at the same time, exuding terrifying might.
"KILL!" One of them jabbed out with his finger. Momentarily, a surge of blood-colored energy congregated in the air, transforming into a towering tempest that directly slashed towards Qin Wentian. Another one blasted out a towering palm imprint, blotting out the sun. Another one slashed out with a saber, cleaving apart the void. As for the last one, he unleashed his controlling constellation. Countless demonic vines manifested around Qin Wentian, grabbing towards him in all directions.
The four outer disciples of the Dongshengxian Gate joined forces to attack together. How terrifying was the might they unleashed? It definitely wasn't a simple four times increase in strength. For experts of their level, once they unleashed their constellations, they would be able to coordinate their attacks perfectly, making it so that their opponents had no hope of escaping. Even if their opponents were many times stronger than any of them, they would still be able to slay them with a single strike.
Qin Wentian was directly buried within the might of their attacks. If his strength was only a notch higher compared to the four of them, he would already be a dead man right now. There was no way for him to survive. The eyes of the core disciple of the Dongshengxian Gate flickered with a mocking smile. This person underestimated the disciples of the Dongshengxian Gate too much. Just a single strike was enough to reap his life.
"BOOM!"
At this moment, a heaven-shaking bell chime rang out. After which, thunderous sounds echoed out unceasingly, shaking the heavens and earth. That core disciple turned his gaze over only to see a resplendent violet-gold light radiating forth. Rumbling sounds of explosions rang out unceasingly as the attacks of the four core disciples were all destroyed. Their bodies retreated with explosive speed, and some of them were even injured from the impact.
In just an instant, the situation was reversed. Qin Wentian stood in the air, exuding a towering battle might. Blood-colored demonic light and violet-gold celestial constellations shone resplendently. He was like a supreme king, sweeping his gaze forward, exuding an aura of nobility that caused the hearts of others to shudder.
"Just a mere disciple of the Dongshengxian Gate. Let alone wanting to kill me, even if you didn't, how can you make me feel reverence for you?"
Qin Wentian stared at the core disciple below. After which, he stepped out as a gigantic palm imprint directly expanded in size, blasting out with the power to pluck the stars and seize the moon. One of the core disciples retreated with explosive speed, yet the gigantic palm imprint seemed to be able to pluck the sun, moon and constellations from the heavens. With a thunderous boom, that core disciple's body exploded, dying on the spot.
"Since all of you want my life, leave your lives behind then." Qin Wentian domineeringly spoke. He stepped out in the air once more, causing the hearts of the core disciples to tremble!
