The Journey of Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 1123 - 610: Breaking Through the Realm (Ahem, shamelessly still asking for pink tickets!)

Jin Wuhuan had not yet responded when Elder Quan in the audience angrily retorted: "You intruded here and are brandishing your sword as if intending to kill? You really seem to have no regard for the Heavenly Residence! The Nanming Lihuo Sword was auctioned by a distinguished guest, how did it end up in your hands? Please return it quickly, otherwise do not blame the sword and blade for being merciless."

Changtian turned his head to look at him. This glance was neither angry nor wrathful, akin to staring at a dead man. Elder Quan couldn’t help but shiver. Changtian nodded slightly and said: "I am Changtian, head of the Hidden Stream, known as the Shaking Heaven God. The Heavenly Residence and Yin Jiu You collude, making things difficult for her at the auction, truly hateful and worthy of death! When you meet King Yan, feel free to mention my name."

Shaking Heaven God, head of the Hidden Stream?

Everyone present was knowledgeable, and seemed to have heard of the name "Shaking Heaven God". An elder’s mind suddenly sparked with realization, and he finally exclaimed: "You... you are the Ba Snake, the Ancient Divine Beast who founded the Hidden Stream!" Before finishing his words, his face turned utterly pale.

Everyone’s expressions changed. Up to now, only one White Tiger, an Ancient Divine Beast, was known to survive, and none had expected the Ba Snake to stand alive before them.

Ancient Divine Beasts have already risen to the God Realm in cultivation, yet these individuals, who haven’t even faced a Heavenly Tribulation, how could they possibly be his opponents?

This is unbearable injustice!

Jin Wuhuan couldn’t help but take two steps back, feeling endless regret.

Though Jin Manyi was dear to him, she was still just a daughter. He has Jin Manyan, he has Jishi Building, and boundless power. As long as he remains healthy, albeit offspring are hard to come by, there is always hope for new life. Had he known that Ning Xiaoxian had a great god behind her, he would have never dared to offend her!

Changtian observed his expression, finally feeling a bit of relief from the suffocating anger in his heart. He shook his Longsword, and the Nanming Lihuo Sword made his golden eyes spontaneously shimmer with red light: "The words have been spoken, who among you will embark first on the journey? Hmm—perhaps you should start!"

The tip of his sword pointed towards Elder Qi.

The Nanming Lihuo Sword burst with dazzling light, suffused with overwhelming heat waves sweeping through the entire secret chamber!

From the moment Changtian and Jin Wuhuan began their dialogue, Elder Qi already had no color on his face. He indeed hindered Ning Xiaoxian in many ways during the auction, especially when bidding for the Nanming Lihuo Sword, denying her request to advance the tea payment. Who knew he would invite such a calamity for this reckoning? He was accustomed to living in luxury at the Heavenly Residence, but considering his cultivation was only at the Void Refining Stage, how could he be a match for the person before him? Now, merely being pointed at from afar by his sword, a sharp pain arose between his brows; he knew this was the opponent’s killing aura condensed into Sword Intent.

Changtian however, let out a faint "huh". As he struck, a sharp tool seemed to pierce the center of Elder Qi’s Yintang, exposing a bloody hole, and the man slowly collapsed. While the crowd marveled at his pitiful cultivation, Changtian, without turning back, threw the Nanming Lihuo Sword toward the rear; with a "thud" sound, it embedded into the wall.

Accompanied by a heartrending scream!

Only then did everyone realize that outside the secret room, there was another Elder Qi already impaled through the heart by the Nanming Lihuo Sword, firmly pinned against the wall! Meanwhile, the corpse inside the secret room gradually faded away, proving it was an illusion.

"I didn’t expect there to be someone here who could use the ancient ’golden cicada shedding its skin’ secret technique." Changtian precisely controlled the temperature emitting from the Nanming Lihuo Sword to prevent Elder Qi’s organs from being roasted. "Feel well the pain she endured back then."

He squinted at Elder Qi, whose voice was hoarse from agony. The pain unbearable for men, yet how she managed to endure while still smiling and conversating at the time? Thinking of this, he felt another pang of sorrow.

He clapped his hands, as if dusting away the ash: "Alright, who is next?" but his gaze landed upon Jin Wuhuan.

Changtian’s aura was as deep as the sea, with strands of golden light forming the shape of a giant snake coiled and spitting its signal behind him.

Jin Wuhuan watched on, only feeling that the formidable enemy before him seemed to commune with the very forces of heaven and earth, making an antagonist of him akin to opposing heaven itself, full of helplessness. Never in his life had he felt so aware that his end was near yet without a trace of resistance.

He gathered his resolve and softly said: "What will it take for you to spare us?"

"Your time is up." Changtian said coldly, "Including your Jishi Building, it too will surely collapse, without me needing to lift a finger."
