Nan Haofei did not succeed in challenging the first layer of the Nine-Layered Battle Pavilion, always defeated at the hands of the Iron-faced Man.
But that doesn’t prevent him from being a true genius.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been exceptionally admitted to the Thirty-Six Peaks’ strictest Law Enforcent Peak by Peak Master Wu Wenying and beco an Inner Sect Disciple while still in the Transcendent Realm.
He practices the "Cold Moon Divine Saber Skill," a skill favored in group battles, with saber light and cold shadows.
Moreover, his physical body skill is extrely strong.
This is how he managed to go so far in the Ten Thousand Beasts Collection.
Unfortunately, in the Nine-Layered Battle Pavilion, his techniques do not enjoy the sa prestige as Li Hengsheng’s Overlord Immortal Spear Skill.
Nan Haofei has always prided himself as the foremost in the Transcendent Realm and is currently on the verge of breaking through to the Postnatal Realm, ready to advance upon returning from his mission.
Back then, he was surprised to hear that Li Hengsheng beca the first on the Mortal Realm list, but upon learning that Li Hengsheng practiced the "Overlord Immortal Spear Skill," Nan Haofei wasn’t too concerned since the "Overlord Immortal Spear Skill" is universally acknowledged as the strongest spear technique for solo duels.
It’s adept at quick bursts, but not good for group attacks or prolonged battles, and those who practice the Overlord Immortal Spear often end up with a bad fate.
So Nan Haofei felt there was nothing remarkable even if Li Hengsheng got ahead by a step.
Who knew that just yesterday upon returning to the sect, he heard that Li Hengsheng had challenged the Tenth Island.
And today, he would challenge the Eleventh Island.
This did surprise Nan Haofei, as in his view, Li Hengsheng crossing the Eighth Island was already impressive.
Who would have thought he would nearly catch up to his own record?
So today, Nan Haofei decided to co in person.
He wanted to see with his own eyes how far Li Hengsheng could go.
"Senior Brother Li is here."
At this mont, soone called out.
All eyes turned towards the distance, only to see Li Hengsheng with the Immortal-Extinguishing Spear on his back, heading toward Yingxin Lake.
Today’s Li Hengsheng was different from yesterday; he carried a faint battle intent.
This aura made quite a few people feel a sense of respect.
Li Hengsheng paid no attention to anyone, walking towards Yingxin Lake to try his luck on today’s Eleventh Island.
However, as he reached the lakeside, a gaze full of battle intent suddenly fell upon him.
Li Hengsheng followed the direction of the gaze and found that, among the crowd, a young man also in the Transcendent Realm Ninth Layer was staring at him.
Li Hengsheng was curious; who is this person, and why such battle intent towards him?
"Senior Brother Li." At this mont, a familiar voice appeared by Li Hengsheng’s ear, with a laugh, saying, "That person is Nan Haofei from the Law Enforcent Peak, once the top Transcendent Realm disciple in the Mountain Ancient Land."
Li Hengsheng turned his head to see a smiling face.
It was Wu Santong.
"Junior Brother Wu, you’re here too." Li Hengsheng smiled and said, "It’s been a while since we last t."
"I just returned from a mission and heard you were challenging the Ten Thousand Beasts Collection, so I hurried over to join the excitent," Wu Santong also smiled and said, "Don’t let keep you, Senior Brother, go on and challenge him. That Nan Haofei must be jealous. Break his record and show him."
Upon hearing this, Li Hengsheng gave a wry smile.
That record by Nan Haofei wouldn’t be easy to break.
Without paying attention to others, Li Hengsheng directly entered Yingxin Lake, into the Ten Thousand Beasts Collection.
The Eleventh Island.
A familiar scent, a familiar sea breeze, and... even more intense killing intent than before!
With a sharp look, Li Hengsheng realized the sky was filled with things flying toward him.
They were enormous mantises!
Wind Blade Mantis!
The mantises’ twin blades were exceptionally sharp, each over two ters tall, and the swing of the blades seed capable of slicing everything in half.
Li Hengsheng stamped his foot, barely dodging a mantis’s blade while thrusting his Immortal-Extinguishing Spear forward.
But the mantises were too fast, and Li Hengsheng’s spear only pierced an afterimage.
In the next mont, several streaks of killing intent rushed from behind.
Li Hengsheng leaped up to dodge, while simultaneously unleashing the Nine Truths Spear Skill, sending the Heaven-Filling Star Rain down upon them.
Thud, thud, thud, thud!
Several Wind Blade Mantises were pierced by Li Hengsheng’s Immortal-Extinguishing Spear.
But apart from one being pierced through the head and killed on the spot, the others only sustained injuries, which were not fatal.
At this mont, the sky filled with Wind Blade Mantises had Li Hengsheng surrounded.
The murderous aura carried with it ferocious blades to engulf Li Hengsheng!
"Break!"
Li Hengsheng roared, fighting back desperately with his Immortal-Extinguishing Spear.
Yet even so, Li Hengsheng was still blown away, with dozens of wounds densely covering his body, so of which were already bleeding heavily.
Li Hengsheng hadn’t expected this Eleventh Island to be so strong.
Outside, many disciples watching the leaderboard saw that only a short ti had passed, and Li Hengsheng had only slain two Wind Blade Mantises on the Eleventh Island, showing disappointed expressions.
It seed Li Hengsheng wouldn’t clear the Eleventh Island today.
Nan Haofei watched the leaderboard with a calm expression. Unlike the others who were disappointed, he was a little shocked.
He was shocked because the Eleventh Island had hundreds of Wind Blade Mantises; he had pushed the "Cold Moon Divine Saber Skill" to its limits in there!
Back then, he desperately wielded his most powerful saber skill a dozen tis, ultimately slaying dozens of Wind Blade Mantises, before being dismbered by their blade aura.
The battle lasted only a fleeting mont, yet Li Hengsheng managed to endure inside for so long.
