Fa Wa looked at Daniel, who had now reached the fourth rank of the Sky King Warrior level. A mix of pride and concern filled his eyes. "Daniel, are you truly sure you want to leave now?"Daniel stared at the patriarch firmly, his determination unwavering. "Patriarch, I can no longer hold myself back. I must investigate Brother Tian’s death. If I can eliminate many black sect warriors, the Empire will undoubtedly take notice of me. At that moment, I’ll be able to uncover the truth about Brother Tian’s death."Fa Wa sighed heavily. "You don't need to take such a difficult path to enter the Palace. With your current realm, the Empire would surely recruit you. Few in your generation have reached the Sky King Warrior level, let alone the fourth rank. The Empire will notice you regardless."Daniel remained resolute. "Patriarch, I’ve reached this realm thanks to the cultivation techniques Brother Tian gave me. I owe him everything. If he truly was killed by black sect warriors, joining the E
Ling Faizhe and his two companions stood at the city gates, watching the arrival of elders dressed in grand robes, their auras so powerful that the air seemed to tremble. Among them, an elder named Huxin stood out with his sharp and authoritative gaze. The guards immediately bowed deeply."Greetings to Elder Huxin," they said in unison, offering special respect to the leader of the group.Elder Huxin frowned, his displeasure evident. "I did not expect the Blood Crow organization to have so many members. It seems they know most of the powerful warriors from Teipei City have returned to their respective sects. This is their chance to strike again," he said coldly, his gaze sweeping over the anxious guards.His eyes then settled on a man in black clothing with a mask covering part of his face—a member of the reconnaissance team tasked with gathering enemy intelligence. "Who leads the Blood Crow forces? And what is their rank?" Huxin asked sternly, demanding a report."Reporting, Elder,"
After successfully eliminating many black sect warriors, the elders of the Blood Raven organization shifted their attention to Ziyan Rouxi. Their eyes were filled with hatred and worry as they watched the young woman effortlessly decimate their forces."Stop that girl! Don’t let her continue slaughtering our troops!" King Wujhi shouted, his voice full of rage as he commanded the elders of Blood Raven.Several elders, battle-hardened with decades of experience, immediately charged at Ziyan Rouxi, who was still hovering in the air. They hoped to stop her before more of their soldiers fell.However, Ziyan Rouxi showed no fear as the elders approached. With a chilling calmness, she dived sharply from the sky, her sword adorned with red rose engravings ready to tear through her enemies. As she swung her sword, dozens of red roses appeared, spinning rapidly like tops and darting toward the attacking elders.Clang! Clang! Clang!The sound of clashes echoed in the air as the elders' weapons c
Ziyan Rouxi did not realize that her use of the Hell Rose Sword had drawn the attention of many parties—not only dark sect martial artists but also some from the righteous sects who coveted the sword. Their greed was uncontrollable, and they began plotting in the shadows.That night, as Ziyan Rouxi rested, she was awakened by a warning from the Hell Rose Sword. The artifact spirit dwelling within it could sense malicious intent, even when enemies carefully concealed it."Do not let your guard down. Six ninth-tier Sky King martial artists are approaching," the artifact spirit’s voice echoed clearly in Ziyan Rouxi's mind.Ziyan Rouxi frowned, not expecting that after a major battle, there would still be martial artists bold enough to target her. "Senior, how far are they right now?" she asked calmly, though a hint of tension laced her voice."About 1,500 meters away," replied the spirit, its tone calm yet vigilant.Upon hearing the distance, Ziyan Rouxi wasted no time. She quickly donne
With the power of a Second-Rank Semi-Martial Emperor, Xiao Tian could hover in the air. From above, he observed the surrounding area. In the distance, his eyes caught sight of a group traveling along the road. The group consisted of Earth King and Sky King warriors, escorting someone in a horse-drawn carriage. Judging by the number and strength of the guards, it was clear that the person inside held a very high status.Xiao Tian landed a short distance away from them, then casually walked toward the group. Seeing his approach, the guards immediately halted their horses and eyed him with heightened vigilance. His appearance, wearing nothing but tattered pants, made him look like someone who had just emerged from the wilderness. However, his aristocratic, handsome face somewhat eased their tension.The leader of the group, a stern-faced warrior with a drawn sword in his hand, quickly dismounted. "Sir, what do you want from us?" he asked politely, though inwardly he suspected the young m
Hearing the name Ziyan Rouxi mentioned, Xiao Tian frowned. “What is their purpose in discussing with Ziyan Rouxi? Are they interested in the legendary sword you mentioned earlier?” he asked, his tone full of scrutiny.The restaurant owner replied respectfully, “Young Master, I’m not sure about their exact intentions. However, if you wish to find out more, you can go to the top floor. Many warriors from major sects are gathering there, and even some hidden clans have started to emerge. The Hell Rose Sword is indeed legendary, so it’s natural for it to attract powerful individuals.”Lin Hua, overhearing the conversation, immediately understood Xiao Tian’s intention. Without saying much, she booked a table on the top floor. Observing this, the restaurant owner promptly escorted Lin Hua himself, not relying on his staff.Lin Hua’s presence caught the attention of several waiters who wondered why the owner was being so respectful to her. One of them dared to ask the manager, “Manager, why
No one dared to follow Xiao Tian. They were not foolish. In their minds, Xiao Tian was merely a member of the younger generation, but if someone from the younger generation was this powerful, how strong could the older generation behind him, his supporters, possibly be? Surely, they must be among the most powerful existences in the martial arts world.---After traveling for eight full days, the city of Taipei finally appeared before Xiao Tian. His expression turned cold, filled with a murderous aura as he observed the bustling scenery of the city. Beneath the crowds of martial artists thronging the city, his disgust grew even stronger. What disappointed him the most was that the martial artists gathered here were not from the black sect but the white sect—the ones supposedly upholding justice.Xiao Tian’s sharp gaze immediately locked onto Ziyan Rouxi, who was surrounded from all sides. Around her, a few martial artists were desperately trying to protect her from the oncoming attacks
Dong-xu’s face, once filled with sorrow, now burned with fiery rage. "Arrogant brat, I swear I will kill you! I’ll drink your blood and drown every member of the Supreme Sword Sect in a sea of blood!" he roared with hatred.Boom—Suddenly, thick black energy erupted from Dong-xu’s body, enveloping his surroundings. The space around him tore apart like fragile fabric, unable to withstand the overflowing power emanating from the old man.The spectators below felt an intimidating aura pressing down on them, causing their hearts to race and cold sweat to drench their bodies. "Is this the power of a half-martial emperor?" one of them murmured with trembling voice.For warriors at the Earth King and Sky King levels, a half-martial emperor was an almost unreachable existence. Across the Three Continents, only Emperor Ming, a second-tier martial emperor, was recognized as the strongest. Apart from him, no one had achieved the realm of a true martial emperor. Reaching the half-martial emperor
Daniel held a pill in his hand, unaware that it was far more valuable than he had imagined. He would never find such a pill even if he travelled across the entire continent. Sixth-grade pills were already considered extremely rare, but only Xiao Tian could refine them. However, the pill in Daniel’s hand was no ordinary one—it was an eighth-grade pill that could not be bought even with the wealth of a mountain of gold.Daniel slowly sat down in a meditative posture, feeling anxiety begin to spread through him. Carefully, he swallowed one pill, and his hands continued to form seals. As the pill entered his mouth, his body immediately felt as though it were on fire, as if a raging inferno was rampaging inside him. The energy contained within the pill was incredibly powerful and wild, far beyond his capacity."Damn... why is the energy in this pill so overwhelming?" he muttered, panting heavily. Daniel knew he couldn’t panic. Quickly, he recalled the cultivation technique given to him by
Daniel walked steadily, treading the winding path between towering mountain peaks. The mountain air was cool, but beneath the freshness, challenges awaited at every step. His goal was clear: the Wei Dynasty.Although the Ming Dynasty was known as the strongest, Daniel believed that the Wei Dynasty held a greater, hidden power beneath its reputation as the largest trading center. His thoughts were centre yet sharp—if they could supply various precious treasures and the needs of cultivators, they must have enough power to protect that wealth. Daniel was determined to uncover the hidden strength there.“In the Wei Dynasty, there must be many coincidental encounters I can find,” he murmured to himself. His gaze drifted, full of hope for the opportunities to come. “The dynasty also has many forbidden places... I’m sure they hold the legacies of ancient beings. Such places always bring opportunities for those brave enough to take risks.”After a long and exhausting journey, Daniel decided t
The news of several sects and kingdoms being slaughtered began to spread. People from the Ming Empire started arriving to visit the sects and kingdoms under its control. When they arrived, they were greeted with a horrifying sight.The horrific scene before them was evidence of brutality and uncontrollable savagery. Once standing tall with over two million members, a second-tier sect had now turned into a sea of corpses. Millions of lifeless bodies were scattered, piling up to form a terrifying mountain. The blood flowing from the lifeless bodies created a red lake beneath them, filling the air with a deathly aura and the unbearable stench of rotting flesh. The people of the Ming Empire, and even those from other powerful factions who witnessed this scene, felt like vomiting from the horror and disgust.Not only had countless lives been mercilessly lost, but the entire sect’s buildings were also reduced to rubble, destroyed beyond recognition. What infuriated the people of the Ming Em
"Damn, how could a mere Martial King push me back!" the man muttered angrily, quickly forming hand seals. "BOTTOMLESS HOLE!" he shouted in a booming voice.Suddenly, hundreds of meters in size, a massive skull head appeared in the air. The skull slowly opened its mouth.Buzz—From within the skull's mouth, a huge green vortex formed, instantly spreading a powerful sucking force in all directions.Buzz—Buzz—Thousands of swords from the Elders of the Supreme Sword Sect were helplessly sucked into the terrifying vortex. Their swords and even the roofs of buildings, rocks, and trees around them were drawn into the massive skull's mouth like mere specks in the face of this irresistible force."Devour everything!" cried the high-ranking member of the Skull Organization, followed by a burst of energy growing stronger from his body. His voice echoed as if commanding destruction.The sucking force of the skull grew more terrifying, unstoppable. The martial artists at the scene felt immense p
"Hmph, another arrogant kid who doesn't know his place! Finish them off quickly; show them the true power of the Skull Organization!" the Rank 5 Martial King snapped angrily.Without a word, Ling Faizhe and Daniel moved in unison. Both knew there was no room for error. Their combined attack began as they unleashed incredible battle auras. Ling Faizhe swung his sword, enveloped in fire, while Daniel moved with astounding speed, his sword surrounded by lightning. The bravery and strength of their attacks created immense pressure on their opponents.Ling Faizhe launched a massive, fiery slash toward the four Rank 4 Martial Kings. Though they tried to dodge, the attack was too fast and powerful. In an instant, they were knocked back, their bodies burned and severely wounded by the intense wave of fiery energy.Meanwhile, Daniel wasted no time. He quickly formed hand seals, releasing wind attributes that enhanced Ling Faizhe's fire. The fire, strengthened by the wind, grew more ferocious,
The alliance of white and neutral cultivators had come together with one goal: to eliminate the black-clad cultivators who were attacking and slaughtering the citizens of Golden Dragon City. Shouxue, a widely known cultivator, led the younger generation in the alliance. Although Daniel possessed greater power, he didn't mind. To him, the title of leader was just an empty title. In the world of cultivation, strength determined everything, not status. As they moved through the city, a horrifying scene unfolded before them—black-clad cultivators were mercilessly slaughtering innocent civilians. Blood flowed through the streets, and the cries of helpless victims filled the air. Seeing this cruelty, Daniel's instinct to act immediately arose. He was about to step forward to stop the slaughter, but his movement was halted by Shouxue’s quick hand. "Daniel, don't be rash!" Shouxue said sternly. "Though only Sky King-level cultivators, they are being watched by a Martial King of rank four
Fa Wa called upon several Elders from the Supreme Sword Sect who had reached the peak of the Martial King realm. With a serious expression, he ordered, “You will lead a group of talented disciples to assist the Golden Dragon Sacred Hall. However, remember that your and the disciples' safety is the top priority. Make sure you protect each other.”Before Fa Wa could finish speaking, Daniel arrived at his residence. Initially, Daniel intended to ask permission to visit the Yuntai Kingdom. Still, as soon as he heard that the Golden Dragon Sacred Hall had been attacked and that the Supreme Sword Sect was sending reinforcements, he immediately changed his mind.“Patriarch, I will join this mission,” Daniel said firmly.Upon hearing Daniel’s voice, the Elders immediately turned to look at him. When they sensed his aura, almost all of them were surprised. Daniel had now reached the fifth rank of the Martial King realm, an incredible improvement in such a short amount of time.“Daniel, your re
Xiao Tian appeared in the depths of a forest, surrounded by lush trees and the tranquil sounds of nature. He walked toward a hidden cave nestled among the bushes. “At least here, no beasts will come to devour the body,” he muttered resolutely. After those words left his lips, the fiery and electric aura surrounding his body gradually dissipated. Exhaustion overcame him, and in an instant, Xiao Tian fell into a deep sleep.Deep within his soul lay a secret place known as the dantian—a mystical space reserved for those with a unique bloodline. Within it resided a colossal beast enveloped in fire and lightning, its eyes sharp and haughty as they observed Xiao Tian.“Boy,” it growled, its deep voice echoing, “you’re fortunate the seal placed by your father still protects your body. You would’ve been reduced to ashes without it when you tried to draw on my power forcibly. I never expected your father to manage such a feat, allowing you to harness divine strength without the deity’s permi
"Great Elder, please forgive me," General Wang said in a trembling voice, filled with fear. "I never expected him to possess the realm of a mid-tier Martial Emperor, and his power defies the heavens. If we let him live, he will undoubtedly become a massive threat to us all. Please, kill him!"Hearing General Wang’s panicked explanation, the Great Elder’s initial anger subsided. Calmly, he took out a pill from his pocket and handed it to General Wang. "Don’t worry, I won’t let a potential danger like him live."Without hesitation, one of the men in black robes vanished from sight. When he reappeared, he was already standing before Xiao Tian. "So fast!" Xiao Tian thought, startled. Fortunately, he had the Heavenly Eyes, which allowed him to track the black-robed man’s swift movements. Otherwise, he would have been caught off guard by the sudden attack."Die!" the black-robed man shouted, swinging his hand with lethal intent. However, before the attack could land, Xiao Tian activated a t
