Immortal-Exterminating Divine Venerable Chapter 248 247: Fight Me

'So stingy. The assessnt is over and all I get is a single fruit?'

Yang Xiao was a little disappointed.

Looking at the golden fruit in his hand, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that this Inheritance Tower was too cheap.

It was nothing like the Rising Dragon Tower. After clearing that, he got not only a Greater Yang Spirit Fruit, but also a Greater Yang Secret Pattern Inheritance Seed. This Northern Wilderness Sword God was truly a miser.

What was even more miserly was that Yang Xiao had no idea what this thing was even for.

All he knew was that this thing was called a Desolate Divine Fruit. The na sounded impressive, but the energy it contained didn't feel like much—not even as good as a Greater Yang Spirit Fruit.

Yang Xiao was naturally frustrated.

"Yang Xiao!"

A soft call from the distance interrupted Yang Xiao's frustration.

He turned to look and imdiately frowned.

"You? How did you get in? And Ziling, you're hurt?"

Yang Xiao's expression changed. With a flash, he was by Yang Ziling's side. When he saw that she had only been injured by her own Sword Qi, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

An injury like this looked severe, but in reality, it would heal with a bit of proper conditioning.

But as for these two guys before him...

"I rember Xuan Tianzhan didn't bring the two of you with him when he ca in, did he?"

Yang Xiao's voice was a bit cold.

Unlike Yang Ziling, who had been unconscious the whole ti, he was clearly aware.

There were nine Northern Wilderness Sword Orders in total.

Xuan Tianzhan had brought eight of them, and the last one was in his own hands.

'So how did these two guys get in?'

"Don't be so tense. Of course we didn't co in with Xuan Tianzhan. We ca in with you."

Yang Tian chuckled.

"With us? Could it be… Void Power?"

Yang Xiao's expression changed.

His gaze toward Yang Tian grew even sharper.

"Oh? You actually know about Void Power? Tsk tsk, not bad at all. Indeed, I have studied Void Power a little, so I borrowed your Teleportation Power. I hope you don't mind. Besides, I just saved your woman. You wouldn't repay kindness with malice, would you?"

"My woman?"

Only then did Yang Xiao notice the corpses of four Barbaric Beasts in the distance.

They were blood-red.

"Are those… Red Blood Hounds?"

"Brother Yang recognizes them?"

When Yang Tian saw Yang Xiao give a faint nod, he was genuinely surprised.

It was one thing for Yang Xiao to know about Void Power.

After all, Void Power was very common; anyone who reached the Demigod Realm had to comprehend it.

But the Red Blood Hound had gone extinct at the end of the Ancient Era. It had nothing to do with cultivation and was an obscure piece of knowledge. Even if this "Little Junior Brother" was her son and possessed exceptional talent, how could he possibly recognize this Barbaric Beast?

'Did he have so sort of fortuitous encounter?'

What he didn't know was...

...in his second life, Yang Xiao had been a person from the Ancient Era. How could he not recognize a re Red Blood Hound?

However, Yang Tian quickly found a reasonable explanation for himself.

'That's right. The man who was with him before had an aura of Greater Yang Power. And Little Junior Brother has a similar aura from the sa source. It seems that although he lives in this remote little place, his opportunities and luck are extraordinary. He might not be much weaker than a first-rate genius from the Divine Land Continent.'

A thought flashed through Yang Tian's mind.

On the Divine Land Continent, there were many tiers of geniuses.

From ordinary, third-rate, second-rate, to first-rate, there was a huge gap between each tier. Above first-rate, there were top-tier and even Demon Level geniuses.

Those individuals were utterly terrifying.

In Yang Tian's eyes, for Yang Xiao to be born in such a small place and still be comparable to a first-rate genius was already outstanding and extrely rare.

If he received proper training, he might beco a top-tier genius, or even a Demon Level one.

'If that happened, even I probably wouldn't dare to fight him at the sa level.'

But while Yang Tian was marveling at Yang Xiao…

…Yang Xiao was looking at Yang Tian with a similar sense of disbelief.

He watched him, his face full of wariness.

'A person who could use Void Power before the age of thirty. How could such a person be simple?'

'If what this guy says is true, and he really followed into the Northern Wilderness Sword Mansion, then unless he has a special constitution, his cultivation must have at least reached the Demigod Realm. Why not… test him?'

A fiery glint flashed in Yang Xiao's eyes.

His fighting spirit radiated outwards.

Since his rebirth, it wasn't that Yang Xiao hadn't t powerful experts.

But he had never encountered one like Yang Tian.

Too mysterious.

Perhaps Xue Yi could also be considered mysterious.

But after crossing blades with her twice, he had already gotten a rough grasp of the woman's strength.

He had a certain degree of confidence in his heart.

But with Yang Tian, he had no confidence at all.

Therefore, Yang Xiao took a step forward. "Whether or not there's malicious intent is most obvious during a fight. Fight a match with , and I'll believe you!"

"You want to fight ?"

Yang Tian was a little surprised.

He clearly hadn't expected Yang Xiao to say such a thing.

However, what he said did seem to make sense.

In the heat of battle, between life and death, whether there is malicious intent becos clear at a glance.

"Yang Xiao!"

Yang Ziling cried out, a little worried.

She had seen Yang Tian in action; his strange thods had left a deep impression on her.

Although she had great confidence in Yang Xiao, this guy was just too bizarre.

Giving Yang Ziling a reassuring look, Yang Xiao said to Yang Tian, "That's right. What? Don't tell you don't dare to fight ? If that's the case, then please leave this place."

Yang Tian smiled.

"Alright. Since you want a fight, let's have one. I also want to see just how profound the inheritance of the Northern Wilderness Sword God is."

Yang Tian accepted the challenge.

He suddenly had a thought. His 'Little Junior Brother', Yang Xiao, was practically invincible here; knocking him down a peg would actually be a good thing.

So, as soon as his voice fell, he got serious. The aura around him changed in an instant.

Before, he had seed as harmless as a sheep.

But after entering a combat state, he instantly transford into a terrifying Fierce Beast.

He looked at Yang Xiao, his entire body condensed with fighting spirit.

And at this mont, Yang Xiao finally noticed the aura on Yang Tian.

It was actually…

"Martial Grandmaster Third Layer? The sa as ?"

Yang Xiao was stunned.

But in the next instant, he understood.

'This guy is refusing to take advantage of .'

'Soone who can control Void Power, even with a special constitution, must be at least at the Divine Power Realm.'

'How could he really be a Martial Grandmaster Third Layer, just like ?'

'Even if he had exceptional talent and possessed the Spiritual Power of the Void Observation Realm while being a Martial Grandmaster, it couldn't be such a coincidence that his strength was exactly the sa as mine.'

'So, this guy is suppressing his cultivation.'

"You should make the first move. I'm afraid that if I move first, you won't even get a chance to."

The words were incredibly arrogant.

But Yang Tian's tone was calm, giving off an air of natural confidence.

However, it was precisely this that made him seem extraordinarily arrogant.

"Alright. I'll see what you're made of, then."

Although he knew this guy's true strength was terrifying, Yang Xiao would not be intimidated.

The reason experts were experts was because their hearts always pressed forward.

When facing a stronger opponent, one might show respect.

But never fear.

And Yang Xiao was just like that.

Moreover, he wasn't being the least bit careless.

He imdiately raised the Bloodthirsty Sword and slashed down at Yang Tian.

This one sword strike.

Delivered with all his might.

Holding nothing back.
