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
News of Xiao Tian's return spread rapidly across the nation, especially regarding the extraordinary power he now possessed. Within the empire, She Yingping and She Zinshin were in seclusion, undergoing rigorous training. Ever since Xiao Tian had become trapped in the mysterious realm, the two princes had not left their training grounds. They had vowed to grow stronger with one goal in mind: to rediscover the golden gate they once passed through. Whether Xiao Tian was alive or dead, they had to destroy that gate and avenge what had happened to him.One day, while She Yingping was cultivating with intense focus, there was a knock at the door of his palace. A servant came, bringing urgent news.“Eighth Prince, I have important news to report,” the servant said cautiously.She Yingping, feeling disturbed, immediately shouted, his voice booming, “I told you not to interrupt my training! I don’t care what news it is!”But the servant did not give up. “Prince, it’s about Tian from the Suprem
Xiao Tian continued to observe Ziyan Rouxi’s movements with his Heavenly Eye, a rare ability that allowed him to perceive every detail of energy flow. His sharp gaze fixed on the Hell Rose Sword, which was gradually absorbing energy from Ziyan Rouxi’s body without her realizing it.“The artifact spirit is truly cunning,” Xiao Tian thought, his expression serious. “It appears to assist its wielder, as if granting power, but in truth, it’s simply waiting for the right moment to seize control of Sister’s body.”Fortunately for Xiao Tian, he had studied thousands of techniques throughout his journey. Now, he knew exactly which technique could protect Ziyan Rouxi’s body from the manipulations of the sword’s spirit. “If not for my Heavenly Eye,” he muttered inwardly, “even I might have been deceived by the artifact spirit’s sinister plans.”Without hesitation, Xiao Tian interrupted Ziyan Rouxi’s practice with a swift yet calm movement. He handed her several precious pills to restore her inn
Seeing Xiao Tian about to enter the restaurant, Mingden scoffed coldly. “Beggar, do you think you can just walk away after injuring my guards?” His tone was full of arrogance, even though he had personally witnessed how easily Xiao Tian had subdued his bodyguards. His confidence remained high, bolstered by the fearsome reputation of his background.Xiao Tian turned, his gaze calm. “Is there something else you need?” he asked flatly as if Mingden’s words held no significance.“Hmpf! Kneel and apologize to this Young Master for hurting my guard! Perhaps I’ll consider sparing your life,” Mingden demanded coldly, issuing his orders as though Xiao Tian’s life rested in his hands.Swoosh—Without warning, Xiao Tian’s body shuddered slightly, and in an instant, he vanished from sight. When he reappeared, he was standing right in front of Mingden, just inches away.Mingden was startled by Xiao Tian’s incredible speed, but he struggled to maintain his arrogant expression, even as fear slowly c
The restaurant buzzed with the sound of conversations and clinking utensils when a sudden shout shattered the air, reverberating with a power that shook the room. "Who dares to harm my son in this place?!"The voice boomed, carrying immense pressure that filled the atmosphere. Its owner released his aura without hesitation, revealing himself to be a Rank Three Martial Emperor. His energy flowed wildly, spreading fear throughout the room.All eyes turned to a man clad in magnificent royal robes, his appearance dazzling yet seething with rage. He gripped the neck of one of the restaurant's waiters with a powerful hand, the waiter gasping for air. "Tell me where the person who harmed my son is!" his voice thundered, brimming with murderous intent.With a pale face and trembling voice, the waiter stammered in fear, "Your Majesty... the person who injured Young Master Mingden is on the upper floor.""Take me to him!" bellowed King Yu as he ascended the stairs with heavy, furious steps. His
With his Heavenly Eyes, Xiao Tian effortlessly penetrated the protective formation encasing the hidden world. Although he could have deactivated the formation entirely, Xiao Tian chose not to. He wanted to ensure he could seize all the treasures within without drawing the attention of Ming Wen's group. After all, confronting two martial emperor experts at the five-and-a-half rank, along with numerous warriors at the second and three-and-a-half ranks, would not be an easy feat. Even with his extraordinary power, which many considered defiant of destiny, Xiao Tian refrained from being overly confident. For him, it was always better to face enemies with thorough preparation than to rely on uncertain bravado.Upon entering the world, Xiao Tian resisted the temptation to harvest the spiritual plants scattered around. His eyes were fixed on a simple building in the distance, exuding an ancient aura. "I never expected to find a relic from powerful figures still existing in this continent. T
After successfully refining various types of pills, Xiao Tian sat cross-legged in calm meditation. Without any hesitation, he swallowed four pills at once."Before advancing my cultivation realm, I must first strengthen my physical body," he muttered with determination.If anyone had witnessed Xiao Tian's cultivation method at that moment, they would have been utterly shocked, perhaps even spitting blood in disbelief. A tier-six pill was an extremely rare and precious treasure across the continent. Even with immense wealth, obtaining such pills was nearly impossible. The highest known and accessible pill level on the continent was tier five, and even that was monopolized by imperial elites or top-tier cultivators.The mere existence of tier-six pills was a legend among cultivators. There was a tale of an ancient relic site where tier-six pills were discovered. That event triggered a fierce battle among martial cultivators vying for the pills. Thousands perished in a bloodbath for a si
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
