In the tomb, Ming Luo's body was torn into pieces, and blood flowed out continuously.
If it weren't for the middle-aged man's timely intervention, he would have already disintegrated.
This meant that he had lost, completely and utterly lost.
"Impossible, this is impossible …" Ming Luo's expression was lifeless. He was unable to accept this cruel result.
Back then, though Ling Xian defended against five of his attacks, he was no opponent of his.
Yet at this moment, he couldn't even defend against one attack from Ling Xian. This giant gap was hard for anyone to accept.
"The Ming Clan's Saint was actually defeated so thoroughly..."
The skinny elder's heart skipped a beat. He knew Ling Xian was strong, but he didn't think he would be this strong.
He was the strongest descendant of this generation of the Ming Clan, yet he was crippled by Ling Xian within three moves. If this news got out, the entire Holy would be shocked!
"Face reality. The current you does not have the qualifications to fight me."
Ling Xian's expression was emotionless. Like the descendant of a God or the descendant of an immortal, he overlooked the world.
"Reality …" Ming Luo smiled bitterly. He wanted to refute, but he had nothing to say.
The reality was right before his eyes. He had no right to fight against Ling Xian.
At this moment, he realized how ridiculous he was.
Ling Xian used only three moves to almost disintegrate him. He wanted to send Ling Xian on his way. What a joke!
"Back then, I was half-crippled by you. Today, I will cripple you as well."
Ling Xian glared at Ming Luo. "We are even. If you don't give up, then I will fight you to the end."
Hearing this, Ming Luo bitterly smiled. Even if there were 10 of him, he wouldn't be able to defeat Ling Xian. Even if he wanted to, he didn't have the capability.
He shifted his gaze towards the middle aged man and said, "Third Uncle, let's go."
"You can't leave."
The middle-aged man's expression was dark as he shifted his gaze towards Ling Xian, "It wasn't easy to find him. How can I let him go so easily?"
"Ming Luo has already been defeated. You can't even make a move, so how are you going to suppress me?" Ling Xian grinned. If Ming Luo and the elder in green teamed up right from the beginning, they might have been able to defeat him.
But at this moment, Ming Luo was already half crippled. The green-clothed old man alone could not do anything to him.
"He can make a move." The middle-aged man pointed at the green-robed old man.
"He can, but ask him if he has the confidence to suppress me." Ling Xian shook his head and chuckled. He had fought against the elder in green before. Even without using the Burial of Three Lives, he was able to remain undefeated.
"Capture him. I will reward you handsomely." The middle-aged man looked at the green-robed old man.
"Elder, it's not that I don't want to, it's that I don't have the ability." The green-robed old man bitterly smiled. Although he didn't want to admit it, this was the truth.
"Trash!"
The middle-aged man was unable to restrain his anger, and he said, "If it wasn't for that bet, I could annihilate you with a single finger!"
"Unfortunately, there's a bet."
Ling Xian grinned, "Leave. You can't do anything to me."
Hearing this, the middle-aged man's lungs were about to explode, but there was nothing he could do.
Ling Xian was right. Since he couldn't make a move, there was nothing he could do.
"Kid, I'll remember you."
The middle aged man glared at Ling Xian coldly, "Don't think that just because Supremes can't attack you, the pro-war faction can't do anything to you."
"I will wait and see." Ling Xian's expression was calm. He didn't think much of the middle-aged man's threat.
If he encounters an enemy he can defeat, then he will stay. If he can't defeat them, then he will escape to the weakest point of the Sky Abyss and use the Sky Splitting Light to destroy them.
"Just you wait. Someone will come and take care of you." The middle-aged man hissed. He gently picked up Ming Luo and left.
After watching the three of them leave, Ling Xian looked at the skinny elder and smiled, "Now that you know who I am, how do you feel?"
"Shock." The skinny elder shook his head, "Not even in my dreams did I think you would be Ling Xian."
"You don't want to kill me and get your reward from the pro-war faction?" Ling Xian teased, "My head is worth a lot of money."
"Haha, of course I want to. Sadly, I don't think I have the ability to stop you."
The elder laughed brightly, "Let's go. Let's check out the other two paths."
Then, he marched forward in giant steps and headed towards the path.
Ling Xian followed closely behind.
After some time, the two of them returned to the path on the left.
Along the way, it was peaceful. There were only corpses and no ghosts.
At the end of the path, there was no strange stone.
"There are two possibilities. One, there is no Heaven on this path. Two, someone took it."
Ling Xian's eyes were dark, "No matter which one it is, we have to go back."
Then, he turned around and walked towards the path.
After some time, Ling Xian and the elder stepped onto the path on the right. When they reached the end, their eyes brightened.
This was because a strange golden stone was floating in midair. It was identical to the stone in the middle path.
In other words, there was a Heaven sealed inside.
Below the strange stone, three people were fighting. Without exception, they were all powerhouses of the advanced stage of the saint realm with extraordinary foundations.
The moment they saw Ling Xian and the elder, the three of them stopped in case the stone was stolen.
"You want to fight for this stone as well?" An elder in black asked coldly.
"Of course we have to fight for it."
Ling Xian's expression was calm. Whether it was the zither, chess, calligraphy, or the Soil of Breath, they all proved how extraordinary the owner of the tomb was. Why would he let it go?
"You have no right to fight for it."
The elder in black's expression was dark, "If you two fight together, the three of us can as well. Two against three, you have no chance of winning."
Then, he looked at the other two, "If we don't fight together, we won't get the treasure."
Hearing this, the two of them nodded in agreement.
They weren't idiots. Since Ling Xian and the skinny elder were allies, they naturally had to fight together.
"We truly have no chance of winning. However, our goal is not to defeat you, but to take the stone." Ling Xian smiled and called out to the Heaven Stealing Hand.
Instantly, an undefeatable amount of suction poured out. Sand and stones flew everywhere, and the ground shook.
"You think we are just decorations?" The elder in black snickered. As he formed a hand seal, the vase appeared and stabilized the area.
The other two also displayed their own abilities and did not let Ling Xian take the stone.
However, they forgot about the skinny elder. He was the most capable out of everyone here. The moment he made a move, he shattered the vase.
This shocked the three of them. They attacked with all their might and did not let the skinny elder get close to the stone.
HOMMM, HOMMM, HOMMM!
The heavenly light shot through the cloud and shocked the world. Though Ling Xian was weaker than the three of them, his goal was not to kill them, but to take the stone.
Therefore, he signaled the skinny elder to use his technique. At the same time, the space between his brows shone and locked onto the location of the golden stone.
Whooosh!
The heavenly light appeared and was even more blinding than the Sun. Even these three cultivators of the advanced stage of the sage realm had to close their eyes.
This gave Ling Xian an opportunity. He called out to the Heaven Stealing Hand and took the golden stone into his hand.
"Let's go!"
Murky air swirled around Ling Xian's eyes and transformed into the Winged Blitz. He took the elder with him and left.
"Chase!" The elder in black was furious and chased after them.
The other two did the same.
It wasn't just for the stone, it was for their face.
Under the circumstances where they teamed up, Ling Xian took away the stone. This was without a doubt, a humiliation. If they don't get it back, then they will lose all face.
