140: Chapter 89: The Young Banished Immortal Swings the Big Hamr 140: Chapter 89: The Young Banished Immortal Swings the Big Hamr Nightfall shrouded the mountains, and Jinji Ridge was blanketed with pristine white snow; a splendidly red and radiant Fire Spring bubbled and gushed forth.
The elderly man had silver hair like snow, a pale face without a beard, initially resembling a scholar without the bloodthirsty evil Qi of a fierce bandit.
Yet, when he glared with his eyes wide open, his aura transford completely.
A layer of Heavenly Light appeared on his body, tinged with a light hue of blood.
This was the evil Qi from the blood of countless killings, which even a lifeti of cultivating Heavenly Light Force could not purify.
Under the darkness of night, by the Fire Spring, Qin Ming dressed in blue, looked refined and ethereal, resembling an outsider from head to toe with a clear aura all around him.
The snow beneath the elderly man exploded with a bang; transforming into a soaring hawk, he crossed ten ters in a single stride and swooped down in an instant.
At the sa ti, a pitch-black ruler slid out from his oversized sleeve, which he swung fiercely towards the young man in front, like a stroke of black lightning.
With the long-handled Black Gold Hamr in his right hand, Qin Ming swung it powerfully, causing the entire mountain summit to seemingly tremble, producing a sonic boom.
The elderly man ca swiftly and departed swiftly too.
Hit by the heavy Big Hamr, he was flung straight away, smashing into a dilapidated wooden house with a loud crash, splintering wood scattering everywhere.
The elderly man was horrified.
Known as the Golden Thief, he had slain countless individuals but had never encountered such a fierce youth.
Seemingly light and ethereal in blue, resembling a Banished Immortal, yet wielding a massive hamr that smashed a seasoned expert like him dozens of ters away.
Was this really a flesh and blood teenager?
He wondered if he had encountered a mountain spirit.
Qin Ming had a clear gaze, his clothes fluttering in the night wind, illuminated by the Fire Spring.
His handso face and black hair seed to glow, indeed possessing an ethereal deanor.
He remained utterly calm, having anticipated the elderly man’s moves.
The latter didn’t realize Qin Ming was in the dilapidated wooden house until a close distance, and could not reach a higher grand realm.
“So this is all there is to a Golden Thief reborn seven tis!” Qin Ming advanced, lightly stepping on the snow which crackled softly, moving with an airy grace.
The elderly man, seeing such a youth with noble deanor, felt as if facing a giant beast in the darkness, slowly advancing towards him.
This discomfort suffocated him.
He had co only to pay respects and now faced a life-threatening crisis.
He looked down at the pitch-black ruler forged from Refined Gold…
it was bent.
Such monstrous strength, no wonder it could send him flying.
Suddenly, Qin Ming took the initiative to attack, gripping the Big Hamr, stepping on the snow without leaving tracks, like a gentle breeze in the night, instantly arriving close.
With a boom, a white gale erupted, centering on him, sweeping up all the surrounding snow and exploding the dilapidated houses around.
The elderly man tried to dodge, finding himself slower than his opponent, gritting his teeth to confront him.
With a clang, the black ruler in his hand was smashed into an arc shape.
Despite being protected by Heavenly Light, his right hand still split open, blood flowing.
This ti he was thrown sixteen ters away, smashing into a complete wooden house.
By the Fire Spring, Qin Ming spoke, “You are almost on par with Ge Qianxun.
Is this the level of all Golden Thieves?
rely four thousand jin in strength, and your seventh rebirth was also driven by Forbidden dicine, right?”
The elderly man’s pupils constricted, having earlier heard that Ge Qianxun had an incident, to think it was at the hands of this young man?
He discarded the unusable ruler, focusing on his opponent.
The youth seed to have the makings of a Banished Immortal, yet wielding such a massive hamr created a sensation of a rift in ti and space.
Then, the young Banished Immortal wielded the Big Hamr, stepping forward, covering nearly a dozen ters in an instant, reaching him suddenly.
With a boom, the area’s snow exploded and all the wooden houses collapsed.
The elderly man coughed up a large mouthful of blood, his clothes torn apart revealing an Inner Armor clanging loudly.
He was so shaken that blood flowed from all his orifices, a ghastly sight.
His hands trembled; he had used the strongest strike of his life, barely managing to block the Big Hamr with his palms.
“Interesting,” Qin Ming looked down at the faint palm print on Black Gold Hamr.
Then, he set down the Big Hamr, walking forward, capable of killing this man with the hamr, but wanting to test his recent learning.
“Do you know what happened to the mountain bandits of Jinji Ridge?
I personally sent them on their way.” Qin Ming’s words sparked a fierce will to fight in the opponent.
The elderly man, who had been listless, now boiled with rage, his eyes bloodshot, his blood surging, and his Heavenly Light Force soared.
“Ah…” The elderly man roared like a wounded beast, stating coldly, “My nephew and grandson are here, you deserve to die!”
With a whizzing sound, he leaped towards the mountain base, his spirit high, reminding himself he must survive to seek bloody revenge on this young man later.
As they say, revenge for the elderly can wait thirty years!
Qin Ming was taken aback; this was completely different from what he expected.
That the elderly man would co here to pay respects ant he had emotions, yet at the crucial mont, he fled faster than a rabbit.
Despite the elderly man’s fiery spirit and surging Heavenly Light Force, he couldn’t escape.
After mastering the “Flying on the Grass” movent technique, Qin Ming chased him down in an instant like he was riding the wind.
“I’m going all out!” The elderly man had no choice but to fight fiercely.
His reaction speed seed to have increased significantly, a skill acquired during his sixth rebirth.
By burning his spirit, he could double his senses.
During this process, his blood and spirit seed to burn, consuming his life.
Qin Ming gently pulled his hand, activating the Coiling Silk Strength, causing the elderly man to instantly fall.
The elderly man felt humiliated, supporting himself with one hand, swivelling his body, his right leg whipping through the air like an Iron Whip towards the young man’s head.
Qin Ming stood still, reaching out with his right hand, hissing sound as Nail Strength unfurled, the elderly man’s leg armor shredded like paper-mache, revealing several finger holes.
“Ah!” The elderly man scread, feeling as if nails had pierced through his leg, swiftly backing away.
He leapt up, staggering, his leg unable to bear any weight, his eyes bloodshot as he lunged forward again.
Qin Ming tested his Hamring Force, with a boom, the elderly man was blown away, his left hand gruesoly mangled, all fingers severed.
“Co again!”
The elderly man realized that the young man was even more fearso without the hamr, seeming to be testing techniques on him, each capable of severely injuring a seven-ti reborn individual.
How could soone so young master so much Heavenly Light Force?
In an instant, he experienced an even more terrifying Heavenly Light Force—the explosive power, which Qin Ming obtained from the Thunder Fire Alchemy Hall.
During the confrontation, the old man’s entire arm exploded.
Qin Ming felt that using him as a test subject had lost its aning, and finally delivered a Yellow Mud Palm, a faint yellow mist appearing on his right hand.
This scene shocked the elder, who exclaid in disbelief: “Yellow Mud Palm, how could you have mastered it at such a young age?”
The secret book from Jinji Ridge was left behind by the elder himself, who had only reached a small success and could no longer progress, making the book aningless to him.
He could imagine, just over a month ago, the youth obtaining that ancient book when he wiped out Jinji Ridge.
The elder couldn’t believe it; such a short ti shouldn’t be enough to reach this level of mastery.
With a bang, he couldn’t dodge in ti and was instantly struck by the Yellow Mud Palm, touched by the earthy yellow mist, his whole body cracked and then burst into a mixture of blood and broken bones with a plop.
Until the very end, he was still muttering, “Impossible!”
His whole understanding was shaken—wasn’t it said that only at the Outer Saint Realm could one initially guide Earth Essence Qi?
Protected by Heavenly Light Force, Qin Ming was hardly touched by any of the elder’s splattered blood, not a single drop landing on him.
As the night breeze blew, his black hair fluttered, his robe billowing.
If not for the Big Hamr nearby and the pile of flesh and blood beside him, he would have appeared ethereally aloof.
From the elder’s appearance to his swift resolution, the whole process was actually very brief, not even ten breaths long.
“Let’s go, the matter of Jinji Ridge should be thoroughly settled now,” Qin Ming called to Crimson Eagle, standing on the raptor’s back and soared into the sky towards Shuangshu Village.
“Trouble, Golden Thieves appeared in Yinteng Town!” In the night sky, from afar, Qin Ming heard the anxious shouting of the talking sparrow.
“Ah, Master Qin you’ve arrived, there are four vicious n that appeared, the two from Chixia City couldn’t hold them off, they fled from Yinteng Town.”
Qin Ming’s heart sank, the Golden Thieves were not just one or two people showing up in the Black and White Mountain area, the situation was getting worse.
“Let’s go and see!” He was not recklessly rushing to his death, because he knew that the two guarding Yinteng Town hadn’t reached the level of releasing Heavenly Light externally.
Chixia City’s reach was wide, and Black and White Mountain was just one part of it, it was impossible that an Outer Saint could be dispatched to every town.
“The fact that those two were able to escape from Yinteng Town ans these four Golden Thieves haven’t broken through to a higher level yet,” Qin Ming deduced.
The wind howled, the night mist surged, Crimson Eagle carried him for over fifty li.
Talking sparrow chirped incessantly, reporting the details to him.
Qin Ming’s expression was grave because Yinteng Town was only a dozen or so li from Shuangshu Village, truly very dangerous.
Before long, as they approached, from a distance they saw fire rising from Yinteng Town.
Several houses at the town’s entrance had been set ablaze, accompanied by loud laughter and so crying.
“All Golden Thieves co out to et your death!” Qin Ming roared.
Crimson Eagle landed on the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.
Qin Ming leapt down and hurried into Yinteng Town.
The four Golden Thieves were covered in blood, dragging the bodies of two elderly people.
Evidently, the two veterans from Chixia City who fled to the outskirts of the town were still killed by the four thieves, now thrown into the burning houses, the four grinned hideously.
Many people in the town panicked, won and children cried as they fled towards the interior.
The four looked up, seeing the youth quickly charging into the town and imdiately smirked coldly, one of them said, “Kid, do you want to die too?”
Even the youngest of the Golden Thieves was over sixty years old, with the oldest over eighty, one with white sideburns splattered with his opponent’s blood, looking extrely ferocious.
“Uncle Hong, did you hear the loud shout from mid-air just now?
It sounds familiar, a bit like Chong He, not as naive as before,” a young man in luxurious clothes said under the night sky, exactly Cui Chongyi who had been captured by the subordinate of Purple Lightning Beast.
He originally ca out to gain experience and et his “cousin,” unable to et Qin Ming in the end and had chosen to travel around the Black and White Mountain area instead.
“It seems…
it’s him,” Cui Hong’s expression was complex.
They were less than a li away from Yinteng Town, and quickly approached upon running at full speed, seeing the youth confronting the four Golden Thieves amid the firelight.
“Chong He, I’m here to help you!” Cui Chongyi shouted from afar.
Then, he saw Qin Ming fully unleash his power, one hand holding the exaggerated Black Gold Hamr, the other bursting with Heavenly Light Force.
Puff!
One of the Golden Thieves was crushed by the hamr!
“Ah…” After another Golden Thief exchanged palms with Qin Ming, his arm exploded, followed by his body being struck and disintegrated.
“You…” The other two older Golden Thieves were horrified, this youth was too terrifying, just now although they were also injured, it wasn’t to this extent of being powerless, his reinforcents arrived, yet it pushed him to further bursts, what was this logic?!
In Yinteng Town, the youth’s speed increased again, hitting another Golden Thief, smashing him into pieces.
Then, the youth swung the Big Hamr, blasting the last person apart.
After that, without looking back, he rushed into Yinteng Town, whistled, and a Crimson Eagle flew down from the high sky, he jumped onto it and soared into the night sky.
As Cui Chongyi approached near the town entrance, he yelled, “Cousin, it’s , don’t leave!”
Cui Hong, a middle-aged man with long arms sighed, “He doesn’t trust any longer, go after him.”
“Chong… Qin Ming, wait for !” Cui Chongyi shouted, transmitting his voice into the night sky, “So acquaintances are around here, that damned Li Qingxu also ca to the Black and White Mountain seeking Big dicine, be careful around this area!”
