The aura radiating from Qin Wentian instantly grew incomparably powerful. His entire body was enveloped in a layer of resplendent white flames as runic inscriptions circulated around him. But what was even more terrifying was the sword qi contained within him. All the energy in his body was being ignited, as though it was all for the sake of unleashing that supreme sword might.
"Mhm?" Ji Lanshan's countenance changed as he stared at Qin Wentian in bewilderment. At this moment, Qin Wentian's aura skyrocketed, becoming even more powerful. This was especially so for the sword might radiating from him, it was madly growing stronger.
"What's going on?" The countenances of the geniuses from the God Extermination Palace all changed as they stared at Qin Wentian with bewilderment in their eyes.
"Wu wu …" Little Rascal on Qin Wentian's shoulder let out a whimper. It bared its fangs and brandished its claws as it spoke in a baby voice, "This bunch of bastards, kill them all."
Purgatory in the air let out a sorrowful howl. It circled above Qin Wentian's head and after which, its body transformed into a beam of blood-colored light that directly shot towards Qin Wentian.
Qin Wentian seemed to understand the sorrow in Purgatory's voice. He felt extremely moved in his heart. Purgatory was a lifeform that was nurtured by Qin Wentian using his bloodline. Purgatory already had a boundless yearning for him. Now that it knew that Qin Wentian was igniting his energy, it actually summoned Qin Wentian to enter his bloodline and allow him to ignite his own energy.
"How can I ignite your energy?" Qin Wentian silently mused. After which, swishing sounds rang out as a beam of blood-colored light shot up into the skies. Purgatory directly rushed into his body. However, Qin Wentian didn't want to borrow the energy of Purgatory. The him now was no longer the same as before. Back then when he used the Immortal Vanquishing Swordplay, there was a possibility that he might lose his life because his strength was too weak. But things were different now. His cultivation base was already at the seventh-level of Celestial Phenomenon and his bloodline was much stronger than before.
"You're burning your own power to strengthen your attack." By now, Ji Lanshan had already understood what was going on. He frowned slightly, this brewing energy was extremely terrifying. Qin Wentian was burning himself. Such a sacred art was extremely powerful, but its weakness was also extremely obvious. Qin Wentian would first injure himself before injuring his opponent. After a single strike, he might be completely paralyzed and at the mercy of his opponent. Unless one was in a desperate situation, no one would use such a sacred art.
Was this guy risking his life?
"Swish, swish, swish …" Whistling sounds filled the air as boundless sword qi converged on Qin Wentian's body. Qin Wentian pointed his finger forward and pressed it into the air. In an instant, numerous terrifying formless swords appeared in front of his finger. These swords were formed from towering sword intents and that terrifying lacerating force seemed to be able to tear the void apart. The entire world seemed to be enveloped by this sword intent and everyone from the God Extermination Palace could feel the destructive force contained within.
Jun Mengchen and Zi Qingxuan both felt shock in their hearts as they stared at Qin Wentian. They didn't know that Qin Wentian had cultivated such a tyrannical sacred art.
At this moment, Qin Wentian's body reverted back to his normal size. His entire body was clad in armor of flowing light as a pair of golden roc wings appeared behind his back. He stared at Ji Lanshan.
"Extreme beneath immortality." Ji Lanshan stared at Qin Wentian as he spoke, "Even if you ignite your own power to strengthen your attack, you still wouldn't be able to break through the barrier of immortality. Those below immortality are all mortals. My cultivation base at the ninth-level of Celestial Phenomenon has already reached the peak of mortals. Even if you reached the extreme beneath immortality, you still wouldn't be able to threaten my life. At the same time, you are merely exhausting your own strength and won't be able to last long.
The immortal-foundation realm was a watershed. For those below immortal realm, it was impossible for them to reach the immortal-foundation realm just by relying on secret arts. At the very most, they would only be able to reach the extreme beneath immortality.
The Immortal Vanquishing Swordplay was an immortal-foundation art. Those at the immortal-foundation realm would be able to unleash the strongest might. However, Qin Wentian hadn't reached the immortal-foundation realm yet. Hence, it was impossible for him to unleash might that surpassed immortals.
Ji Lanshan was right. The experts on the Immortal Ascension Rankings were all geniuses who stood at the very peak of the immortal realms. They themselves already stood at the peak, the peak beneath immortals. Hence, this ranking was named the Immortal Ascension Rankings.
Ji Lanshan's aura gushed forth frenziedly as his thousand talismans constellation manifested. Countless runes transformed into a dazzling thousand talismans shield that revolved around him, as though it was to defend against Qin Wentian's attacks. At the same time, his thousand talismans sword remained in his hand as he stared at Qin Wentian, "Just give up."
"If you want me to give up, I have no way to control the might of this art. You said that the City of Ancient Emperors doesn't need immortal-ranked weapons, I can do that. However, once this art is unleashed, I won't be able to control it. If you force me to fight, I will definitely unleash it. At that time, whether you can block it or not, you will have to ask yourself."
Qin Wentian calmly spoke. The energy in his body was still burning as a stifling sword might gushed forth. All the spectators could clearly feel it. Even for the spectators on the ground, they felt as though they were enveloped by this sword might. Their entire bodies were filled with boundless sword qi, truly at the extreme beneath immortality.
Although Ji Lanshan wasn't too far away from immortality, in truth, he was still quite a distance away from it. If not, how could he be ranked 321st in the Immortal Ascension Rankings? There were still 320 people in front of him. Only those people in front of him had the qualifications to say that they had come into contact with the extreme beneath immortality.
Sharp whistling sounds rang out unceasingly. That was the sound of the sword intent grinding against the thousand talismans. Such ear-piercing sounds caused Ji Lanshan to fall silent. Qin Wentian's finger was placed in the air. It was as though the moment his finger landed, the boundless sword might would be able to condense into a single sword. There was only a single sword, but the might of this single sword strike was the most terrifying.
"I can drag things out with you. But how long can you burn your energy for?" Ji Lanshan coldly spoke.
"You guys sit on Little Rascal's back. Little Rascal and I have a telepathic connection, he knows what I'm thinking about." Qin Wentian transmitted his voice to Jun Mengchen and Zi Qingxuan. The two of them nodded and sat on Little Rascal's back.
"Bzz!" Qin Wentian stepped out step by step, moving towards Ji Lanshan. This scene caused Ji Lanshan to furrow his brows. When he saw Qin Wentian advancing towards him, he actually took a step back. A cold smile could be seen on Qin Wentian's face.
A raging wind gusted by. The Shadow of a Golden Roc appeared around Qin Wentian, resembling a heavenly roc. He instantly turned and sped towards another expert from the God Extermination Palace.
"Careful." Ji Lanshan spoke. However, the speed of Qin Wentian's golden roc form was simply too fast. In just an instant, he already appeared before one of the experts. His finger pressed out in the air and in just an instant, that expert only felt his entire body being enveloped by a supreme sword intent. If Qin Wentian's finger pressed down, that expert would die on the spot.
Little Rascal indeed had a telepathic connection with Qin Wentian. When Qin Wentian first moved, Little Rascal had already followed closely behind Qin Wentian, guarding against the experts from the God Extermination Palace.
"This is a robbery. Hand over all your interspatial rings." Little Rascal's immature voice rang out, sounding somewhat adorable. That baleful body of his swayed as he appeared before that expert and stretched out his claws. This scene was somewhat comical but that expert had no way to laugh. His life was being controlled by Little Rascal.
Behind him, a powerful aura gushed over. Although Qin Wentian didn't turn his head, he directly spoke, "I don't wish to unleash this attack. Don't touch my bottom line or I don't know what the consequences would be."
As the sound of his voice faded, Ji Lanshan and the experts from the God Extermination Palace all halted their steps. That expert who was being threatened turned ashen, he took out all his interspatial rings and placed them in Little Rascal's claws. Since he was captured, he could only admit defeat.
"Why are you so stupid?" Little Rascal stared at that young man as he lazily cursed. His other claw directly slammed out, slamming into that young man's body. Cracking sounds rang out unceasingly as that young man was directly flung through the air. It was unknown how many bones in that young man's body had been broken by that attack.
"IMPUDENT!" Ji Lanshan coldly spoke. Little Rascal turned his gaze over, "Who told you guys to bully this baobao with numbers?"
"This demonic beast is interesting." The experts below laughed.
Qin Wentian glanced at the experts from the God Extermination Palace only to see that all of them were radiating tyrannical auras, as though they were prepared for another sneak attack from him.
"Even at this stage, you are still trying to infuriate us. I can't help but to say that you are the truly stupid one." Ji Lanshan stared at Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian acted as though he didn't hear anything and directly climbed onto Little Rascal's back. Little Rascal's wings flapped as it soared into the distance. Qin Wentian was still facing the experts from the God Extermination Palace. The sword might radiating from him was as strong as ever, enveloping this entire space.
"Do you think you can escape?" Ji Lanshan and the others stepped out. A group of experts from the God Extermination Palace sped through the air, chasing after them. He truly wanted to see how long Qin Wentian could last.
A group of experts sped through the City of Ancient Emperors. The energy in Qin Wentian's body burned unceasingly as Ji Lanshan and the others followed closely behind. In fact, they didn't even retract their constellations, preparing to launch an attack at any moment.
"Ji Lanshan of the Immortal Ascension Rankings led the experts from the God Extermination Palace to chase after three of us who just entered the City of Ancient Emperors. You guys can really afford to lose so much face." Qin Wentian mocked. His voice rumbled through the air, echoing through the city below. After that, countless people inclined their heads and stared at the sky. Everywhere they passed by, there would be experts with expressions of interest on their faces.
"Ji Lanshan, Ji Lanshan of the Immortal Ascension Rankings actually chased after a few newbies. Not only that, he doesn't even dare to act." Many geniuses from the City of Ancient Emperors soared up into the air, following after Qin Wentian and the others. It was as though they were all people who wanted to see the world in chaos.
Ji Lanshan's countenance gradually turned sinister. The number of geniuses spectating grew more and more, causing him to feel as though he was about to lose face.
"If you continue to flee, don't blame me for being ruthless when you exhaust all your energy." Ji Lanshan roared in rage, his voice filled with a threatening intent.
Qin Wentian was facing the experts who were chasing after him. His countenance was cold, and his eyes gleamed with sharpness. He didn't expect that he would encounter people from the God Extermination Palace the moment he arrived here.
"Today, I shall make your God Extermination Palace lose all face." Qin Wentian icily spoke. "Little Rascal, get down."
Little Rascal descended from the air, directly landing on a vast area on the ground. This scene caused expressions of interest to appear on the faces of the spectators. Could it be that this young man who ignited his own energy to unleash his sword might still have a trump card?
