Ling Tian Sword God Chapter 418 - 417 Surge1

"In the past, the Sky Demon Tower trials only opened up to the ninth floor. This ti, the trial is set to open the tenth floor? The tenth floor seals the Remnant Soul of the first-generation Sect Leader; it’s extrely dangerous. Senior Brother, you must not take it lightly," Chu Tiange warned.

"No problem at all. This is an opportunity for . I want to elevate my Grand Master realm another level, and this is the crucial mont. The tenth floor can only be broken through by , Yan Xiang!" Yan Xiang declared. He then stood up, swung his Great Axe, hacking away fiercely as brilliant flashes of axe light danced madly through the Void.

"Senior Brother’s axe techniques have beco even more exquisite. Last ti, it was rely a mont of carelessness that allowed Ling Chen’s treacherous plot to succeed. In terms of true strength, ten Ling Chens would be no match for Senior Brother Yan." A smile erged on Chu Tiange’s face as he flattered him excessively.

"However, that Ling Chen is also terrifying. He’s only at the re Second Realm Grand Master level, yet Senior Brother couldn’t kill him. How formidable would he be if his cultivation broke through again?"

He must not be allowed to advance easily!

Hearing this, Yan Xiang’s eyes turned cold as he suddenly bellowed, "Investigate! Find out where he is now. Do whatever it takes to disrupt his cultivation. I, Yan Xiang, have never played by any rules and will never foolishly watch him grow stronger. No matter the cost, strike this person down."

"I already looked into that. That Beiming Old Ghost took him to Beiming Feng. I also heard that the Black Swordsman, Dragon Elephant Respect, and others have all gathered there, possibly to guide Ling Chen’s cultivation," Chu Tiange said calmly.

"What?" Yan Xiang’s expression darkened. With so many people watching over Ling Chen, how could I make a move? Unless I mobilized the Top Sky Apex Strong from Skypiercing Peak. However, if I did that, the nature of the matter would escalate significantly.

"No matter what, have soone keep a close eye on that brat for . Report Ling Chen’s whereabouts to imdiately once he’s found. I will make him suffer a fate worse than death."

Chu Tiange nodded, then retreated with a sneer.

「...」

Moyuan Mountain was exceptionally vast. Skypiercing Peak, the Saintess Hall, and Beiming Feng were all just corners within Moyuan Mountain. Although the conflict between Skypiercing Peak and the Saintess Hall was sharp, it remained an internal disagreent, mostly petty spats that hadn’t escalated into major conflicts.

Between Skypiercing Peak and the Saintess Hall, there was a neutral faction. They supported neither side, rely guarding their own territory. This neutral faction was quite strong, backed by nurous experts.

Within a lush mountain peak, a Bronze Ancient Hall was nestled. This Bronze Ancient Hall was nad Sadness Hall, the residence of one of the Saint Witch Religion’s elders, the Heartbroken Elder.

At this mont, inside the hall, a beautiful woman with pearly teeth and bright eyes sat on a chair, her fingers tapping its armrest. Standing below her was a man—none other than Tian Sha, who had been thrashed by Ling Chen at the Martial World Convention.

Tian Sha was eagerly trying to curry favor with this woman, ticulously recounting many details about Ling Chen to her.

This woman was no ordinary person; she was the daughter of the Ice Heart Demon Sovereign. She was stunningly beautiful, especially her eyes. With even the slightest blink, her eyelids revealed a faint, silvery-white hue. She possessed a natural, imposing aura, like that of a princess, inspiring respect without needing to show anger.

Just as Tian Sha was fawning over her, a shadow suddenly appeared in the hall. It moved as fast as lightning. The figure arrived first, and only then did the sharp gust of wind stirred by his passage follow, a beat slower than the man himself.

The figure was dressed in white, his expression impassive. If Ling Chen were here, he would likely recognize him at a glance.

Heartless Young Master, Xun Wujie!

Xun Wujie carried a bow and arrows on his back. His eyes were devoid of emotion, and his icy countenance rarely showed any fluctuation.

"Senior Brother Xun, you’re back!" Seeing Xun Wujie arrive, the beautiful woman’s eyes lit up with a pleasant surprise.

"I just heard so news," Xun Wujie said, his face still expressionless. "Ling Chen, the Saintess’s son, was taken to Beiming Feng by Elder Beiming today. He just fought Yan Xiang, and Yan Xiang’s arm was crippled on the spot."

"Elder Beiming would actually move against Yan Xiang?" The beautiful woman shook her head. "Logically, Elder Beiming shouldn’t do such a thing."

"Xinyin, it wasn’t Elder Beiming who did this; it was Ling Chen. Yan Xiang and Ling Chen made a bet—a single-move contest. The loser had to cripple one of their own arms. As it turned out, Yan Xiang lost." A rare smile touched Xun Wujie’s lips. "This news has already sent shockwaves throughout the entire Holy Church. Everyone is discussing it, especially since Ling Chen’s cultivation is only at the Grand Master Second Level."

He rembered that back in the Human Emperor’s Underground Palace, Ling Chen had needed to join forces with Xu Ruoyan and perform a combined swordsmanship technique just to pose a slight threat to him. He hadn’t expected Ling Chen’s strength to increase so dramatically in such a short ti.

"What? Such a thing happened? When did Yan Xiang beco so weak?" The young woman nad Xinyin was astonished beyond words.

"Miss Xinyin, it’s likely not that Yan Xiang is weak, but rather that this Ling Chen is truly an unparalleled genius, the kind that appears once in an era. During the Martial World Convention, this person displayed terrifying talent. He not only absorbed a vast amount of Dragon Vein Qi, but the Dragon Vein itself was even drawn to attach to his body. He then used its power to repel the Black and White Holy Envoy. This man absolutely cannot be underestimated," Tian Sha hurriedly interjected. He had suffered a great loss at Ling Chen’s hands during the Martial World Convention, so he was very wary, even sowhat fearful, of Ling Chen.

"What? The Dragon Vein is the cornerstone of the Five Kingdoms’ destiny. How could it so easily attach itself to a person? Acquiring even a sliver of Dragon Vein Qi is a trendous opportunity, let alone having the Dragon Vein itself attach to soone! Could this person be a... True Dragon Level Genius, a kind that has vanished from the Martial World for hundreds of years?" Xie Xinyin furrowed her delicate brows, her bright eyes filled with shock. I hadn’t paid much attention to the Saintess’s son before, but it seems I’ve greatly underestimated him.

"More than likely. I believe that is probably why Ling Chen could contend with soone like Yan Xiang," Tian Sha replied respectfully.

"I understand. Tian Sha, you may leave for now," Xie Xinyin said, returning to her seat. "Soon, the Sky Demon Tower trial, our Holy Church’s most important event, will begin. You should also cultivate diligently and strive for good results in the trial. You will surely reap many benefits."

"Miss Xinyin is right. I will certainly work hard," Tian Sha replied, a glint in his eyes, before walking out.

After Tian Sha left, Xie Xinyin’s expression instantly grew colder. Tian Sha had relentlessly pursued her, but she had no interest in him whatsoever, finding his advances rather tireso. The man she *was* interested in, however, never spared a glance for the won around him, no matter how beautiful they might be.

He was the Heartless Young Master, Xun Wujie! A man of breathtaking talent and supre strength, yet one who left countless won of the Demon Way dejected and heartbroken.

It looks like the younger generation of the Demon Way is about to undergo earth-shattering changes... Xun Wujie, oblivious to the change in Xie Xinyin’s expression, had a rare smile on his face. Ling Chen’s entry into this situation was like dropping a colossal stone into an already overflowing pond; it was bound to cause the entire pool to be thrown into turmoil. This Sky Demon Tower trial will likely be quite interesting. It made him look forward to it with considerable anticipation.
