"Shameless boasting!"
When Xie Kang Xun, the Golden Lion King, heard Duan Ling Tian's words, he could not help but laugh out of anger.
It was as though he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
Xie Kang Xun was the Golden Lion King, one of the Four Great Karmapas of the Xuanzha Buddhism. His cultivation base had long since broken through to the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. He could be considered one of the strongest powerhouses at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in the Dao Martial Saint Land.
This could be seen from his ranking on the Supreme Saint Ranking.
He, Xie Kang Xun, was ranked 18th on the Supreme Saint Ranking!
Most of the people who were ranked on the Supreme Saint Ranking had a similar cultivation base as him, but there were only a few people who were ranked higher than him.
However, a young brat dared to boast shamelessly and did not take him seriously.
How could he not be angry?
"Shameless boasting?"
Duan Lingtian scoffed when he heard Xie Kang Xun's words. "You'll find out soon enough if I boast shamelessly or not!"
"I'd like to see it for myself!"
Xie Kang Xun said coldly as he cast his movement martial tactic and movement Divine Ability to charge toward Duan Lingtian at an even faster speed.
Right now, Xie Kang Xun was like an enraged lion that was about to tear apart the 'prey' that was toying with him!
Whoosh!
As soon as Xie Kang Xun sped up, the Celestial Supreme Treasure, the Jasper Celestial Sword, appeared in Duan Lingtian's hand.
When the Sun Saint Origin in Duan Ling Tian's body was infused into the Jasper Celestial Sword, the Jasper Celestial Sword immediately shone brightly. A terrifying destructive aura spread out, causing the group of sectless cultivators to shudder.
"This is because you didn't teach your son well!"
When Duan Ling Tian spoke again, the Jasper Celestial Sword in his hand suddenly transformed into a sword ray that shot out of his hand toward Xie Kang Xun.
Apart from the Sun Saint Origin that Duan Lingtian had raised to its limit, it also contained the Sword Wielding Art that was given to him by the third stage of the Supreme Sword Dao Mental Cultivation Method, the Sovereign Heart Sword.
Who would be a match for the Sword Wielding Art of the Sovereign Heart Sword?
He just asked, "Who else?"
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
In the eyes of the sectless cultivators, the sword in Duan Lingtian's hand seemed to have disappeared into thin air. All that was left was the sound of the sword whistling in the air...
In Xie Kang Xun's eyes, he saw a flash of sword gleam that was heading straight for him.
'How fast!'
This was the first thought that appeared in his mind before he could feel fear rising in his heart.
Just as this thought popped up in his mind and fear rose in his heart, he felt a sharp pain in his shoulder. Then, a cracking sound entered his ears.
When he lowered his head, he was shocked to discover that his arm had been severed.
His right arm had been severed from his body!
It had been severed from his shoulder!
Dazzling blood was gushing out of his severed arm!
"This is because you slandered me for possessing the Super Saint Weapon, the Traceless Sword!"
Duan Lingtian's voice rang in the air again.
Before Xie Kang Xun could react and grab his severed arm with his left hand, Duan Lingtian's sword had severed Xie Kang Xun's left arm from his shoulder.
This time, even with Xie Kang Xun's extraordinary strength, he could not help but groan.
While he stopped the bleeding from the two severed arms, his figure also stopped in the void in the distance. However, he no longer paid any attention to the two severed arms. Instead, he looked at Duan Lingtian in shock and horror.
Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought:
Before today, Duan Lingtian, whom he had never paid any attention to, actually possessed such powerful and terrifying strength today!
Any of the two swords Duan Lingtian had just swung out could have taken his life!
However, Duan Lingtian seemed to be deliberately teasing him. That was why he didn't aim for the vital parts of his body. Otherwise, he would have died long ago!
Of this, he was absolutely certain.
"How is this possible?!"
"It's only been three years … How can he be so powerful?!"
"Could it be … that he had another fortuitous encounter in the past three years?!"
Xie Kangxun couldn't believe it, nor was he willing to believe it.
The person whom he had regarded as an ant in the past actually possessed strength that could easily kill him!
At this moment, he even wondered if he was dreaming!
Gasp! Gasp! Gasp! Gasp! Gasp!
…
At the same time, the group of sectless cultivators finally regained their senses. When they regained their senses, they could not help but gasp.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye, causing them to be unable to react in time.
It was only when Xie Kang Xun stopped charging at Duan Lingtian that they regained their senses. At the same time, they were shocked by the 'loss' Xie Kang Xun suffered in front of Duan Lingtian.
"Heavens! Can someone tell me … Am I dreaming? This … this is too inconceivable, right? "
A young sectless cultivator exclaimed in shock and disbelief.
"I find it unbelievable as well … Xie Kang Xun, the Golden Lion King of Xuanzha Buddhism, who's ranked 18th on the Supreme Saint Ranking, had both of his arms severed by Duan Lingtian before he could even get close to Duan Lingtian?"
Another middle-aged sectless cultivator exclaimed. He stared at Duan Lingtian as though he had just seen a ghost. His gaze remained fixed on Duan Lingtian for a long time as though Duan Lingtian had some special charm.
"The Golden Lion King, one of the Four Great Karmapas of Xuanzha Buddhism, has been crippled just like that?"
"Although it's hard to believe, the truth is right in front of our eyes. We have no choice but to believe it!"
"When the Golden Lion King came, he was so high-spirited like a lion. However, he's now like a stray dog!"
"The Golden Lion King doesn't seem to have the time to come back to his senses … Perhaps, he's also puzzled as to how someone he once regarded as an 'ant' could become even more powerful than him in such a short period of time!"
"How can I not be confused if the Golden Lion King is confused?"
…
The strength Duan Lingtian had displayed in such a short time had not only shocked the Golden Lion King, but it had also shocked the group of young sectless cultivators.
Before the Golden Lion King's arms were severed, although they knew Duan Lingtian was quite strong, they did not expect Duan Lingtian to be stronger than the Golden Lion King.
At that time, they had all agreed that Duan Lingtian would not be defeated.
They had all agreed that Duan Lingtian would be killed by Xie Kang Xun, the Golden Lion King!
However, reality had given them a tight slap in the face.
Not only was Duan Ling Tian not killed by Xie Kang Xun, but he had also severed both of Xie Kang Xun's arms with just a wave of his hand, turning Xie Kang Xun into a cripple!
'Run!'
The Golden Lion King, Xie Kang Xun, who finally regained his senses and realized Duan Lingtian's strength was not a match for him, thought to himself immediately.
Run! Run! Run!
…
As soon as the thought appeared in his mind, he could no longer suppress it.
Whoosh!
In just a blink of an eye, Xie Kang Xun made his move. However, he did not continue to charge toward Duan Lingtian. Instead, he turned around and charged in the opposite direction of Duan Lingtian.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
Accompanied by a series of thunderous sounds, it was the vast True Essence raging on the surface of Xie Kang Xun's body that shook the void, causing a series of air explosions to resound.
At this moment, Xie Kang Xun had unleashed all his strength and techniques.
He did all he could to escape!
At this moment, he had completely forgotten about avenging his son's death. All he wanted was to survive, even if the chances were slim.
"I'm going to use this sword to prove that I wasn't boasting earlier!"
Duan Lingtian's voice rang in the air again when Xie Kang Xun turned around to flee. The sectless cultivators in the surroundings shuddered when they heard his voice.
Swoosh!
An ear-piercing sword howl that lasted for a brief moment resounded in the air as soon as Duan Ling Tian finished speaking.
When Xie Kang Xun heard the sword cry, his body trembled violently as though he was a bird startled by the twang of a bow. He slowed down a little before he sped up again and continued to flee.
Spurt!
As soon as Xie Kang Xun sped up, another soft sound rang in the air.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, a terrifying 'bloody hole' appeared on the back of Xie Kang Xun's head while he was fleeing. Blood was still gushing out of the hole as if it was free of charge.
This scene caused the group of independent cultivators in the surroundings to fall into a dead silence.
They only regained their senses when they saw Duan Lingtian flying forward and taking Xie Kang Xun's Spatial Ring before Xie Kang Xun's body fell from the sky. They turned to look at Duan Lingtian in unison as though they had discussed this beforehand.
In the depths of their eyes, there was a look of 'fear'!
Xie Kang Xun, the Golden Lion King, one of the Four Great Karmapas of Xuanzha Buddhism, had crippled him with just two sword strikes.
Was that person really Xie Kang Xun?
Was he really the Golden Lion King of Xuanzha Buddhism, the powerhouse ranked 18th on the Supreme Saint Ranking?
Duan Lingtian, naturally, noticed the gazes of the sectless cultivators, but he ignored them.
He had just devoured Xie Kang Xun's Innate Spiritual Root and was about to improve his Innate Spiritual Root.
However, even if Xie Kang Xun possessed an indigo Innate Spiritual Root, it was still a drop in the bucket for him.
After all, his Innate Spiritual Root was a violet Innate Spiritual Root that was superior to indigo Innate Spiritual Roots.
'I wonder when the color of my Innate Spiritual Root will change from light violet to normal violet. Once it's successful, my innate talent will improve, and my cultivation speed will be even faster!'
At that time, with the help of the time flow on the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, my cultivation base will improve by leaps and bounds!
