"I will give you a chance. Recognize me as your master and become my slaves. Then I will spare your lives."
Yue Lian Han's expression was calm and her eyes were cold. A wave of foundational Qi gushed out of her body like a tidal wave, crashing against the entire palace.
Boom, boom, boom!
The Immortal's Cave trembled, causing dust and stone fragments to fill the sky.
Ling Xian and Mo Qing Fu's expressions changed. They used their own Qi to defend themselves. Though it was difficult, as if a mountain was pressing down on them, they did not retreat even half a step. Instead, they desperately fought against Yue Lian Han's foundational Qi.
"How about it? As you can see, I am now a foundational Qi cultivator. I will be able to dominate my generation. As long as you follow me, you will be able to conquer the world and become a conqueror. "
Yue Lian Han's appearance was breathtakingly beautiful. Her temperament was like that of a fairy. Her steps were light and graceful. With every step she took, a golden light flashed and the ground shook. It was as if a supreme being was walking on a journey. There was a great pressure that could dominate the world.
Mo Qing Fu's forehead was covered in cold sweat. He sneered, "In your dreams. I, Mo Qing Fu, would rather die standing than live kneeling!"
"That's right. Yue Lian Han, cut the bullshit. If you want to fight, I will keep you company." Ling Xian frowned. One of his eyes turned black and the other white. He carefully observed the Golden Page above Yue Lian Han's head, hoping to use the power of the Eyes of Execution to find its weakness.
"Though I don't know your name, I admire you. You were able to awaken the fourth ranked Eyes of Execution. In terms of talent, you are much stronger than me." Yue Lian Han had long recognized the pair of eyes. She knew she was no opponent of Ling Xian's. That was why she asked Mo Qing Fu to stop him in the beginning, afraid that he would ruin her plan.
However, after acquiring the Golden Page, the young girl was able to ascend to the foundational level. She was no longer afraid of the Eyes of Execution or any Heaven's Favorite in the ruins.
"Sadly, I reached the foundational level before you. No matter how strong you are, you cannot win against a foundational cultivator with a Qi of the tenth level. Plus, I have acquired this item. In the future, I will rule the world and be undefeatable. No one can be my opponent." Yue Lian Han lightly shook her head. A bright smile bloomed on her face, revealing a hint of arrogance that showed she didn't put anyone in her eyes.
With her current level of training, it was true that she did not think highly of any of the Heaven's Favorites here. This was why she did not make a move against the two Heaven's Favorites right away. Because she was confident that victory was within her grasp, she firmly believed that no matter what, those two would not be able to defeat her.
However, her confidence gave Ling Xian an opportunity.
The Eyes of Execution worked hard to summon murky air. The Golden Page became extremely clear in his eyes.
Slowly, Ling Xian saw through the secret behind why Yue Lian Han broke through to the foundational level. The page appeared to be tightly connected to her, but it had yet to truly merge with her. There was still a flaw.
"It's here!"
Ling Xian's eyes brightened. He had found the flaw and found a way to defeat Yue Lian Han. If he can separate the Golden Page from her, then she will for sure be beaten back to her original state. She will fall back to the tenth level of Qi. She may even die from her injuries.
"Mo Qing Fu, of the ancient characters in the Hao Ran Scroll, how many can you summon?" Ling Xian whispered into Mo Qing Fu's ear. "Mo Qing Fu, how many can you summon?"
"You overestimate me. With my current level of training, I can only summon one character," Mo Qing Fu bitterly smiled. Hesitation flashed across his face. He gritted his teeth and said, "But if I don't mind burning my training, I can summon the three characters, seal, and lock."
"Very good. In a moment, summon these three characters. Even if you can only lock her down for one second, it will be enough for me to break the treasure she is so proud of." Ling Xian's face brightened.
"But I …" Mo Qing Fu hesitated. If he wanted to summon all three ancient characters at the same time with a Qi of level 10, he would have to pay a hefty price. At the very least, he would lose his Qi of level 10.
"No buts." Ling Xian interrupted him and grabbed him by the collar. "Listen, I know you will have to pay a high price. But it's better than losing your life. As long as there is life, there is hope. Don't tell me you don't want to see your Mistress again?"
Hearing the word "Mistress", Mo Qing Fu's eyes exploded with light. He clenched his teeth and said, "Alright, I'll give it my all!"
"Very good."
Ling Xian nodded in satisfaction. He then shifted his gaze to the beautiful Yue Lian Han and smiled. "Yue Lian Han, I admit you are very strong right now. You can defeat all Heaven's Favorites of the same generation. In this entire ruin, no one is your opponent. But I can see that you used the Golden Page to break through to the foundational level, right?"
Being exposed by Ling Xian, Yue Lian Han frowned. She did not panic. Instead, her eyes flashed with passion. She smiled. "Not bad. To be able to see that makes me think highly of you. I want to take you as my servant more and more. To have a Heaven's Favorite recognize me as a Master, this feeling must be wonderful."
Ignoring her offer to take him as a servant, Ling Xian's lips curled up and he teased, "It seems like what I said just now did not make you flustered. You are much calmer than I thought. But if I say that this item has not truly merged with you and that I have already discovered the flaw, would you still be as calm as you are now?"
"What?"
Yue Lian Han's expression darkened. Coldness flashed across her eyes. She said coldly, "Originally, I enjoyed looking down on all of you. I enjoyed the wonderful feeling of watching you fall into despair. But since you have seen through my secret, then please die."
Then, in a flash, she reappeared in front of Ling Xian. Her slender hand slapped towards him. Her hand emitted an infinite amount of light and a terrifying amount of Qi!
"Do it!"
Ling Xian shouted. His Winged Blitz fluttered, sending out terrifying vibrations in the air to defend against the dragon-like hand!
Booom!
After an earth-shattering rumble, the entire palace shook. Dust and smoke filled the air. Luckily, this palace was left behind by an omnipotent cultivator and was protected by a natural array. Or else this place would have been destroyed by these two's attack.
Retch!
Ling Xian spat out a mouthful of blood. He was heavily injured after one attack. It was obvious how powerful the foundational Yue Lian Han was!
If Ling Xian was at the same foundational level as her, he could easily defeat this woman. But right now, even if 10 Heaven's Favorites attacked at the same time, they would still be no opponent of Yue Lian Han's. Though he was heavily injured, he did not retreat a single step. Instead, he summoned his Eyes of Execution and the Sword of Extinction in his hand emitted an infinite amount of bloody light.
"You sure are a tough one."
Yue Lian Han snickered cruelly. Just as she was about to kill Ling Xian, Mo Qing Fu began to burn his own energy. He spat out a mouthful of blood and forced himself to summon the ancient characters on the Hao Ran Scroll.
The silhouette of the Golden Scroll flipped page after page, exploding with powerful vibrations. Mo Qing Fu's body trembled uncontrollably. Clenching his teeth, he shouted three times, "Lock! Seal! Lock! "
Three loud shouts, three words were uttered at the same time!
The Hao Ran Scroll glowed brightly and three palm-sized ancient characters flew out. A mysterious and powerful force began to spread out and instantly, Yue Lian Han's body was frozen in place!
"Now is the time!"
Ling Xian shouted. The Sword of Extinction emitted murderous intent and emitted heavenly light. With the force of a mountain, he slashed down on the Golden Scroll!
Booom!
This was his most powerful strike!
Ling Xian pushed the Eyes of Execution to its limit. A terrifying amount of Qi filled the air. The Golden Scroll's light dimmed a little and the connection between it and Yue Lian Han was broken!
In the next moment, a furious voice echoed throughout the clouds.
"You deserve to die!"
The power of the three words receded and Yue Lian Han broke out of the seal. Her face was frigid. Staring at the two people before her, she gritted her teeth, "Dammit, I will kill you!"
"Do you still have the ability to do that?"
Ling Xian's face was pale as he clutched his left chest. It was obvious that his wounds were not light. However, the corner of his lips curled up and he teased, "Yue Lian Han, the connection between you and the Golden Scroll has been severed by my sword. Take a good look at your current strength."
"What?" Yue Lian Han's face changed color. Feeling the spiritual energy inside her body, her eyes flashed with fear.
Gone.
Her foundational level spiritual energy was gone.
The connection between her and the Golden Scroll had been severed. The temporary increase in her foundational level naturally disappeared as well. All that was left was the spiritual energy of a level 10 meditational cultivator.
"Damn it! Just you wait! Once I've completely fused with the pages, I'll definitely search through the ruins and tear the two of you into pieces!" Yue Lian Han's hands tightened into fists. Glaring at Ling Xian, she did not hesitate and flew towards the exit of the cave.
Decisive, decisive, and decisive.
Right now, she had fallen back to her original level and was severely injured by Ling Xian's sword. She was no opponent of Ling Xian and Mo Qing Fu. Therefore, she made a wise decision.
Leave.
She must leave. Or else she will lose her life.
Watching the graceful silhouette disappear, Ling Xian softly sighed and muttered to himself, "This woman knows that she has lost the upper hand. She turned around and left without a trace of hesitation. What a difficult opponent …"
"Ehem … Brother, why didn't you stop her?" Mo Qing Fu puked out a mouthful of blood and his face was pale white. He was already injured. Now that he was burning his cultivation to summon the three ancient characters, his injuries became even worse. His entire person was extremely weak.
"Stop her? I wanted to, but what could I do to stop her? Both of us are heavily injured. If it weren't for me pretending to be relaxed, coupled with the fact that this woman has lost her support and is a cautious person, I'm afraid that both of us would have already lost our lives. " Ling Xian bitterly smiled. Finally, he could no longer suppress his internal injuries. He puked out a mouthful of blood and his body trembled. It was as if he could collapse at any moment and never wake up again.
"I see …" Mo Qing Fu sighed in relief and forced a smile, "No matter what, our lives are saved."
"Yeah, it's safe for now." Ling Xian let out a long sigh and sat down on the ground. "She is probably finding a secluded place to merge with the Golden Page. She won't be back anytime soon. Let's take this time to heal up."
