Eyes like torches!
Niu Haishan saw through Lin Dong’s extraordinary nature at a glance!
This actually surprised Luo Tian inwardly.
But this made him even more certain that Lin Dong was the protagonist Lin Dong from Wu Dong Qian Kun (Martial Universe). Otherwise, how could his talent be the pinnacle of supreme talents?
Lin Dong himself was also surprised before smiling and saying, “I just want to grow through my own efforts. I also believe in myself. I will definitely cultivate diligently, and I will definitely follow in the boss’s footsteps.”
His life had changed ever since the day Luo Tian appeared.
Luo Tian’s repeated displays of power made him want to cultivate even more desperately. If he wanted to follow Luo Tian, he had to raise his cultivation level. Otherwise, how would he be qualified to walk alongside Luo Tian?
This was his thought.
Luo Tian didn’t persuade him and said, “You decide for yourself; I respect your decision.”
Lin Dong nodded, then went to the side. While they were transferring talents, he began cultivating on his own, not wasting a single second.
Bai Xiong had the same thought. He also wanted to grow stronger through his own efforts.
As he walked up, Luo Tian immediately said, “Second Elder, give your talent to this brother of mine.”
Luo Tian intercepted Bai Xiong before he could speak.
He could tell what Bai Xiong wanted to say just by looking at his expression. Bai Xiong’s talent was only a little above average, nothing outstanding. With a middle talent, it would likely be difficult to reach the Great Diffusion realm in the path of martial arts.
Even with extra hard work, it would still be difficult to break through to higher realms.
This was why in the Ancient World, which had existed for billions of years, some martial artists with thousands to ten thousand years of life still had low-level cultivation. Talent determines the majority of a martial artist’s path.
It was like how the Misty Cloud Academy recruited students.
As long as you have a super talent rating, you can skip the test and enter directly!
This was the advantage of one’s talent!
Niu Haishan glanced at Bai Xiong and said, “Okay, this young man is not bad. He’s as sturdy as an ox. If he can fuse with my talent, then his cultivation should at least reach the Holy Spirit realm.”
“Hahaha…”
Bai Xiong was startled by those words. A sense of gravity fell upon his heart as he clicked his tongue and questioned, “Holy Spirit realm?”
Niu Haishan smiled and said, “What? You think the Holy Spirit realm is too low?”
Bai Xiong hurriedly replied, “No, no, the Holy Spirit realm is too high. I can’t even imagine it!”
Luo Tian laughed and said, “You have no ambition. If you’re following me and don’t reach the Honorable Emperor realm, I’ll lose face. How can you not be embarrassed to hang out with me?” ＲάＮȮ𝐛̧
“Huh?”
Bai Xiong was dumbstruck.
He had never thought about the Holy Spirit realm, much less the Honorable Emperor realm. He only wanted to follow Luo Tian all the way to the end. As for what realm he would reach, he had never thought about it. After hearing what Luo Tian said, his eyes immediately became firm, and he said with conviction, “I want to reach the Honorable Emperor realm! I must reach the Honorable Emperor realm!”
Niu Haishan looked at Luo Tian and increasingly felt that he was extraordinary. He increasingly felt that the days spent with Luo Tian were extremely exciting. Just the ten days of contact had made him incredibly happy. If he hadn’t ended up in this state, he would have truly followed Luo Tian as well.
Niu Haishan was smiling in his heart as he said, “It’s so good to be alive.”
Right after that, Niu Haishan said, “Okay, let’s go ahead and start.”
Out of the fifty members of the Bai family, Luo Tian and Lin Dong were the only ones who weren’t going to go through with the talent transfer.
Even the very stubborn Bai Lingling agreed after only a slight hesitation.
The reason was simple: She wanted revenge. She wanted to personally kill Deng Leigong and avenge her father!
The talent transfer took some time.
Lin Dong was cultivating on his own.
Luo Tian, having nothing to do, opened up his system. He was like a thief, suppressing the excitement in his heart to open the system to check the loot that the Soul Splitting King had dropped.
“Heh heh…”
“Nine Yang Divine Magic?”
“Learn!”
“Ding!”
“Congratulations to player Luo Tian for learning the Nine Yang Divine Magic.”
Martial skill: Nine Yang Divine Magic
Grade: Divine
Cooldown: One hour
Description: The Nine Yang Divine Magic can refine the masculine and yang energy within the body. This power can rapidly strengthen one’s physical body and achieve nine transformations.
Description 2: This martial skill is divided into two parts: the upper part and the lower part. This is the upper part, while the Nine Yin Divine Magic is the lower part. Combining these two martial skills will allow one to achieve the transcendent state of Nine Yin Nine Yang, giving the user an indestructible and immortal body.
“Oh shit!”
“Sure enough, the Nine Yang Divine Magic is just the Nine Yang Divine Skill,” Luo Tian said to himself. It really was the Nine Yang Divine Skill from Jin Yong’s novels. However, he was still missing the Nine Yin Divine Skill. Once he combines them together, he can reach the transcendent state of being indestructible and immortal.
Damn, that’s fucking awesome, right?
In Jin Yong’s novels, the Nine Yang Divine Skill was a method for cultivating inner energy. It’s the same here. Luo Tian can use the Nine Yang Divine Magic to quickly transform his physical body to one of masculine and yang energy.
More importantly, the Nine Yang Divine Magic was very beneficial to the Imperial Goddess Divine Art.
This was the part that excited Luo Tian the most. When his wives arrive, if his “little brother” isn’t up to par, then what’s the point? How could he let his women wait in an empty bedroom? How could a man say he’s not capable in that aspect?
Cultivating the Nine Yang Divine Skill will definitely be helpful.
As for the Nine Yin Divine Skill, Luo Tian really wanted to obtain it as well. But this was the Ancient World. Who would know where it is? This kind of thing was left to fate to decide.
“Good stuff!”
Luo Tian smiled excitedly before opening the second item.
Item: Fragment of the Soul Splitting Sword.
Grade: ???
Description: This item has absorbed the souls of 38,000 individuals. It possesses the power to sever souls and cut off a person’s life force. It can also exert a powerful suppression effect on a person’s soul.
Description 2: This item can be used to forge a dark holy artifact.
Description one wasn’t too impressive. After all, that sorcerer used it to harvest the souls of everyone in the Boundless Sect. And there must have been many more victims before the Boundless Sect, or else it wouldn’t have reached 38,000. But this number was indeed a bit terrifying.
This is also what created the current fragment of the Soul Splitting Sword, which possessed an extremely powerful force to suppress souls.
Description two caused Luo Tian’s eyes to darken and his pupils to suddenly constrict. “One of the materials for a dark holy artifact?”
Luo Tian immediately thought of Niu Haishan mentioning making dark weapons with those Spectral Gems. This kind of weapon could destroy the heavens and the earth and plunge the entire Ancient World into endless darkness. The Soul Splitting Sword Fragment was one of the materials to forge this kind of weapon.
“Damn it, this is definitely setting me up to forge a dark weapon!”
Possessing a dark weapon would be equivalent to controlling the fate of the Ancient World.
At that time, he wouldn’t have to worry about the Soul Sovereign and Divine Monarch Seven, whom he had offended back in the Tianxuan Continent. As for the Hai family in Misty Cloud City, they would be the first to be eliminated. He would also have to visit the Ancient King inside the Pangu Cave as well.
A dark weapon!
Luo Tian swallowed hard and said to himself mischievously, “I will definitely forge it.”
There was also a third item.
A clump of glowing white light.
This was what made Luo Tian the most excited.
It was the Heaven’s Chosen Power!
This power didn’t drop from the Soul Splitting King but from the Soul Splitting Sword. It was only about the size of a fist in his mind. Was that considered a lot or a little? Luo Tian didn’t know.
However, he was very clear on one point: this ball of glowing white power could probably level everything within a hundred kilometers.
Wu Di was so powerful with just a trace of Heaven’s Chosen Power.
The Heaven’s Chosen Power that the Soul Splitting King’s spiritual body had wasn’t even comparable to this ball. That alone was enough to show its power!
This has become another trump card for Luo Tian!
He wouldn’t use it lightly unless absolutely necessary.
Luo Tian could tell this power was a one-time-use item. He wanted to master this power himself so that he wouldn’t have to worry about what to do after using it up.
“I must go to Heaven’s Chosen Mountain!”
The Soul Splitting Sword and the Soul Splitting King dropped these three items.
This was really good already!
He received a power, a cultivation method, and a material to forge a dark weapon. The quality of these three things dropping had exceeded Luo Tian’s expectations. With these three items, Luo Tian’s own strength had increased to another level.
Time passed quietly.
In the blink of an eye, two hours had gone by.
During this time, the Bai family disciples and the resentful spirits were still in the midst of the talent transfer.
Luo Tian took on the task of guarding the surroundings.
In the Boundless Mountains, any kind of beast could suddenly appear. Furthermore, the intense commotion caused by Luo Tian and the Soul Splitting King must have awakened some incredibly powerful demonic beasts. It would be pretty bad if they were to show up and disrupt the talent transfer.
Besides Luo Tian being on guard, there were also many resentful spirits guarding the perimeter of the Boundless Sect.
One of the resentful spirits suddenly hurried over and said, “A powerful figure with a dark aura is rapidly approaching. Their cultivation might have reached the Myriad Illusion realm.”
Luo Tian was briefly stunned before muttering to himself, “Myriad Illusion realm? Rapidly approaching here? What’s going on? Could that person have been attracted by the battle just now?”
Luo Tian’s eyes suddenly widened, and his expression darkened as he said, “No, that’s not right!”
“The Hai family’s assassin is here!” Luo Tian immediately thought it was an assassin sent by the Hai family.
The news of Wu Sha’s death should have long reached the Hai family in Misty Cloud City. The death of a disciple on the Poseidon ranking had undoubtedly violated the Hai family’s bottom line. It had also severely damaged the Hai family’s reputation. Adding to Hai Yulong’s situation, the Hai family would definitely not let this go and would definitely send another assassin.
If Luo Tian were in their shoes, he would also send out another assassin.
However, the Hai family didn’t expect the family turmoil in Towering Cloud City, the Bai family being driven out, and their escape into the Boundless Mountains. Due to the vast size of the Boundless Mountain Range, even a Myriad Illusion realm expert wouldn’t be able to quickly search the entire area.
Because of the battle between Luo Tian and the Soul Splitting King, the sound traveled tens of thousands of kilometers away, which exposed their whereabouts!
“Myriad Illusion realm?”
“It looks like the Hai family really wants me dead.”
“Last time, it was just the Great Diffusion realm, but this time, it’s the Myriad Illusion Realm. Possibly even the peak of the Myriad Illusion realm. To deal with a Martial Void realm cultivator, or in the Hai family’s eyes, someone like him who is at most in the Condensation Element realm, they’ve sent out someone with such a high level of cultivation. This…”
Luo Tian felt a tightness in his heart as he muttered, “Damn it, you guys really want me eradicated, right?”
The only transformation card left was the Superman Transformation Card.
The Hulk and Thor Transformation Cards were still on cooldown.
As for those urban genre novel rewards, they had no combat effectiveness.
Furthermore, Luo Tian couldn’t possibly abandon these Bai family disciples.
Most importantly, even if Luo Tian used a transformation card, he might not be a match for the assassin. Was he going to have to use the Heaven’s Chosen Power?
Did he have to use the power he just obtained from a loot explosion?
And was he really going to use it against someone who was only in the Myriad Illusion realm?
To be honest, Luo Tian was very reluctant!
“Benefactor, what do you think we should do?”
“Should we try to hold that person off for a while?” The resentful spirit asked upon seeing that Luo Tian’s expression had turned somewhat grim.
Luo Tian shook his head and replied, “You are not that person’s match.”
The elite resentful spirits were all involved in the talent transfer with the Bai family disciples. The resentful spirits on guard were mostly at the Martial Void and Great Diffusion realms, so they weren’t a match at all. A Myriad Illusion realm powerhouse could kill them like cutting vegetables.
They had finally regained their souls and were waiting to go to the underworld to enter the cycle of reincarnation. If their souls were heavily damaged at this time, they might not be able to enter the underworld.
At this time, Niu Haishan was the first to wake up.
He had heard the conversation and slowly opened his eyes before saying, “Brother Luo, the talent transfer to your brothers will be completed soon. You should lead them through the back of the Boundless Sect. After traveling for three more days, you will reach Boundless City.”
“As for that Myriad Illusion realm assassin, you can leave it to us.”
While he was speaking, all of the other resentful spirits woke up one by one. The Bai family disciples woke up a few seconds later after them. Everyone looked different from a few hours ago. Their eyes were sharp, and their overall transformation was very powerful. In particular, the aura emanating from their bodies was noticeably different.
The evolution of their talents had caused their bodies to undergo a transformation.
They had previously been caterpillars, but now, they had transformed into beautiful butterflies.
“That’s right!”
“Benefactor, it’s our turn to do something for you.”
“You all go ahead first. We’ll hold that person back for you and definitely stall for time.”
“Humph~! Even if he’s at the peak of the Myriad Illusion realm, it won’t be so easy for him to break through our defenses.”
“Take your brothers and leave quickly.”
The resentful spirits spoke up one by one.
They were grateful to Luo Tian and wanted to do something for him. At this moment, being able to help Luo Tian was something they did without a second thought. Even if their souls were to be shattered, they wouldn’t be afraid. This was the only thing they could do to repay Luo Tian before going to the underworld and entering the cycle of reincarnation.
Luo Tian looked at Niu Haishan in a grave manner and said, “Second Elder, please take care.”
He didn’t hesitate and made up his mind.
He currently didn’t have the strength to fight against a Myriad Illusion realm powerhouse. He also didn’t have the strength to fight the Hai family yet. Compared to the Hai family, he wasn’t even considered a tiny ant. The Hai family was simply too powerful.
They were so powerful that Luo Tian couldn’t shake them at all.
The only choice was to lead these Bai family members with super talents to develop themselves in secret. These seedlings needed time to grow.
If it were just him alone, he wouldn’t run.
He only had one word to express himself: Fight!
He didn’t care if it was a Myriad Illusion powerhouse or an Honorable Emperor powerhouse. As long as there was even a slight chance, he wouldn’t easily give up. But now, he couldn’t. Behind him were the Bai family and a group of brothers who were eagerly waiting for their bright future.
He couldn’t let these brothers take those risks with him.
Luo Tian shouted loudly, “Brothers of the Bai family! Remember that you are alive today thanks to the Second Elder and these resentful spirit brothers! When we reach the peak of the martial path one day, we must return to honor them! All of you, remember this!”
The Bai family disciples shouted in unison, “We will keep it in mind!”
Another resentful spirit rushed over and said, “Second Elder, that powerhouse is only one kilometer away from us.”
Niu Haishan immediately said, “You guys, quickly go!”
Niu Haishan then turned around and looked at the numerous resentful spirits. “Now is the time to repay the kindness we owe! Brothers, let’s show them the spirit of the Boundless Sect! So what if he’s a darkness-type Myriad Illusion realm martial artist? We’ll make sure he doesn’t leave here alive!”
“Kill!”
Immediately after, the numerous resentful spirits turned and ran down the stairs.
Luo Tian looked at Niu Haishan one last time; his heart filled with gratitude. He didn’t dare delay for even a second. He knew clearly that Niu Haishan and the other resentful spirits would definitely not be able to handle the Hai family’s assassin. If he didn’t leave now, their casualties would be even greater. He immediately shouted, “Let’s go!”
A few minutes later, screams of agony rang out from the entrance of the Boundless Sect.
These were the sounds that could only be made from the pain of a soul being annihilated.
For the resentful spirits, it was a permanent disappearance, a complete obliteration. Yet, they weren’t afraid, and they continued to charge forward recklessly.
Luo Tian clenched his teeth so hard that cracking sounds could be heard. He then swore in his heart, “Hai family, I will definitely pay you guys back a thousand times for this!”
His heart was filled with intense rage.
That feeling of powerlessness made Luo Tian want to go berserk.
He was really pissed off!
From escaping Towering Cloud City into the Boundless Mountain Range and braving all the dangers inside where he could die at any moment, the Hai family still wouldn’t let him go. They even sent a Myriad Illusion realm powerhouse! They wanted him dead no matter what!
Luo Tian had engraved this hatred and enmity into his heart!
If he didn’t fuck over the Hai family’s eighteen generations of ancestors, he wouldn’t be human!
The one who came was none other than the Hai family’s Ghost Servant.
He entered the Boundless Mountain Range in search of Luo Tian.
But he wasn’t here to kill Luo Tian, but to capture him alive!
The Hai family’s Ghost Servants had eight different bodies.
Each body was like a separate clone with a different set of abilities. If all eight were together, even a peak Holy Spirit powerhouse would have trouble dealing with them. The Ghost Servant who entered the Boundless Mountain was a tracking specialist.
There was also the Shuttling Ghost Servant.
At this moment, the Shuttling Ghost Servant was entering the Tianxuan Continent.
————
Misty Cloud City, Misty Cloud Academy at the peak of the Misty Cloud Mountains.
“What?”
“The Hai family… they’re going too far! They actually sent out Ghost Servant! I haven’t even dealt with Hai Tongtian for killing our Misty Cloud Academy disciples, and now he sends Ghost Servant to assassinate that kid! This is outrageous!”
“What should we do?”
“What should we do? What else can we do? We both know Ghost Servant’s strength. Hai Tongtian actually sent him out… that kid’s life is probably…”
“The Hai family is too arrogant this time. Can’t we do anything at all?”
“Dean, when did our Misty Cloud Academy become so spineless?!”
“This is pissing me off!”
An old man looked up at the sky, his brow furrowed as he stared at the blue sky. His thoughts raced as he considered countless possibilities. Finally, his mind focused on one place: a familiar and fearsome face, the Hai family’s prince, Hai Huanglong!
