Chapter 322: The Evil Blade’s Display of Power

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Since they couldn’t get along through conversation, wouldn’t they have to prove their abilities to each other? Ling Yun wasn’t in the mood to debate with them; he was decisive and prepared to fight.

Suddenly, Shangguan Jue from the Shangguan clan spoke. He held a hook in each hand and had a malicious expression as he laughed aloud. “Ling Yun, since you deny being a member of the Devil Sect, then which sect are you from? Who is your master? You just need to confess, and we’ll shelve this issue for the time being. It won’t be too late if we resolve it after leaving this place!”

Ling Yun asked himself which sect he belonged to. It wasn’t as simple as searching for stubble. However, he fabricated a story. “I’m from the Immortal Physician Sect. As for my master’s name, there’s no need to disclose it to you!”

“Immortal Physician Sect?” With these words, everyone else stared speechless at each other, and skepticism could be seen in their eyes. Evidently, they had never heard of this particular sect.

Tie Zhengping from the Divine Fist Sect scratched his head. “I’ve heard of the Miracle Physician Valley, as well as the Five Poison Clan. But as far as the Immortal Physician Sect goes, I’ve never heard of it before...”

Shangguan Jue fixed his malicious gaze on Ling Yun. He seemed to be carefully examining the veracity of Ling Yun’s claims. After a long time, he finally spoke up. “Immortal Physician Sect—we’ve never heard of it before. Could you elaborate on it?”

Ling Yun had already replied to one of his questions, and realizing that Shangguan Jue was still bent on investigating the matter thoroughly, he finally started to turn impatient. He replied coldly, “Don’t you think that you’re asking too many questions?”

Up until that moment, Ling Yun’s body was still furiously absorbing the spiritual energy emitted by the dragon’s saliva. He sensed that his body was virtually transforming into a bottomless pit. Even after absorbing the energy for such a prolonged duration, there were no signs of it being filled.

After the powerful spiritual energy had entered his body, it would no longer reside quietly within him. On the contrary, it gushed into Ling Yun’s primary meridians directly. Using his energy center as a base, it circulated freely within him and was unceasing.

Ling Yun secretly activated the Yin-Yang harmony balance. Lifting the pitch-black Devil’s Underworld Essence Blade, he gently pointed at Shangguan Jue and Ximen Gang who were standing before him. He gave a slight smile. “Let me say this for the last time. If you guys want to fight, then do so. If you don’t want to, then scram and let me pass. I don’t care why you are here, but everyone should mind their own business, how about that?”

Ling Yun was considered very courteous already. If it hadn’t been on account of Dugu Mo, he would’ve picked a fight straightaway instead of chatting pointlessly with these people.

After he had finished speaking, Ling Yun gently raised his leg and walked forward with an inexorable determination to kill.

As Shangguan Jue, Nangong Jian, and the others looked at each other, a vicious expression flashed across their eyes simultaneously. When Ling Yun was passing by him, Shangguan Jue, without making a sound, lifted the Hook of Separation and slashed at Ling Yun’s right arm!

“You’re seeking your own death!” Ling Yun was already prepared for it. Without turning his head, he lifted his weapon in retaliation. The 80kg Devil’s Underworld Essence Blade brought about a howl of wind and chopped towards Shangguan Jue’s Hook of Separation.

Shangguan Jue knew the mighty power of the Devil’s Underworld Essence Blade. He dared not tackle Ling Yun’s evil blade and hurriedly withdrew the Hook of Separation. At the same time, he shouted at the crowd, “This person is of unknown origins and doesn’t distinguish between good and evil. He’s even wielding the Devil’s Underworld Essence Blade. Why aren’t you guys doing anything?”

Nangong Jian had already dashed forward earlier on, and seeing that Ling Yun hadn’t sheathed his blade, he saw an opportunity and raised the longsword in his hand to pierce Ling Yun’s throat.

Ling Yun laughed coldly and stretched out his left hand at lightning speed. Aiming at the tip of Nangong Jian’s sword, he activated the Stellar Condensation Technique as a protective measure and clamped the sword lightly between his index and middle fingers.

“Nangong Jian, your sword is too slow!” Ling Yun mocked him coldly as his left hand refused to release the tip of Nangong Jian’s weapon. Ling Yun raised the blade in his right hand and chopped the sword lightly. A sound was heard, and only the hilt of the sword remained in Nangong Jian’s hand.

Ling Yun gave a small smile. The evil blade in his hand had conveniently performed an extra favor for him—its tip had pierced Nangong Jian’s right arm and frightened him to such an extent that he had retreated more than five meters in an instant.

At this time, Shangguan Jue’s twin hooks swiped at Ling Yun’s legs. Frowning slightly, Ling Yun activated the Dragon Fish Phantom Ability and appeared beside Shangguan Jue almost immediately. Shangguan Jue hadn’t anticipated that Ling Yun would be that fast; he had planned to retrieve his twin hooks, but it was already too late. With a sound, Ling Yun chopped the twin Hooks of Separation into two pieces in a single strike. Shangguan Jue was so frightened by it that he jumped out of the fight immediately.

Wielding the Devil’s Underworld Essence Blade, Ling Yun stood erect in the darkness and shouted in an extremely domineering tone, “See? Isn’t it so much easier to solve the problem this way? Does anyone still want to obstruct me now?”

They hadn’t even executed five moves, but both Shangguan Jue and Nangong Jian’s weapons had already been ruined by Ling Yun. Ling Yun could be considered to have been merciful to them—he had only used his cultivated skills and speed to sever his opponents’ weapons with his blade, having no intention to do them harm.

After experiencing so much in the underground crater, Ling Yun had already understood the mystery and powers of the earth. Before he reached the Qi Cultivation Stage, Ling Yun didn’t wish to make too many enemies.

Dugu Mo had reminded him previously that these people were all from ancient martial arts families and secretive sects. Whether they were truly from the righteous path, or just proclaimed to be from there, Ling Yun didn’t wish to annihilate them. Otherwise, he would be so preoccupied in dealing with these enemies that he wouldn’t have time for anything else.

Ximen Gang’s weapon had been destroyed by Ling Yun earlier on, while Dongfang Ting, as well as Tie Zhengping from the Divine Fist Sect, had no intention of dealing with Ling Yun from the very beginning. Lei Wenxing hesitated slightly; after witnessing Ling Yun’s power, he could only let go of the spear in his hand.

Of course, Dugu Mo wouldn’t fight Ling Yun. But he was now extremely shocked, and he realized why Ling Yun had dared to accept his battle challenge. Judging by the speed, precision, and courage shown by Ling Yun when he had clamped the tip of Nangong Jian’s sword between his two fingers, he discerned that there were very few people who were capable of achieving that!

“If it had been my sword, could Ling Yun also have clamped it between his fingers?”

Everyone came to a tacit consensus that the young man, Ling Yun, was unfathomable.

What everyone had failed to notice was that the giant “dragon”—which had been guarding the dragon’s saliva forty meters away—had straightened its upper body, which was estimated to be tens of meters long. With eyes that were the size of basketballs and shining like lightbulbs, it was staring at Ling Yun, or rather, his blade. The expression in its eyes revealed its fear and respect for it!

As everyone had jumped out of its attacking range to surround Ling Yun earlier on, the giant “dragon” had naturally turned its head to look at Ling Yun. Having caught sight of his blade, it was stupefied for a while before being filled with dread and respect for it!

This was the reason that it hadn’t resumed its attack on them.

A long time ago, there was once a small python which had been cut by a black blade. That blade had nearly absorbed what little blood it had. However, it was because the blade’s owner had mercy on it that the python had managed to survive.

Subsequently, the blade’s owner also became the owner of the small python. The small python had followed the blade’s owner to the gigantic belly of this mountain and lived here for countless ages until its owner had died while it remained alive to this day.

It remained unknown what the owner had fed the small python, but after its owner’s death, the python was able to remain alive for a long time. At the start, it was even able to freely navigate all the caves in the mountain. However, there were some places that were no longer accessible to it due to its increased size. Now, it could only stay put in the giant, dark underground river.
