Chapter 738: Chapter 738: 70% Strength_1

Just as Ling Xiao was preparing for a battle with the inferior officer, the officer made the first move.

In the blink of an eye, the adversary was in front of Ling Xiao, wielding a strange steel saber that shimmered with an aquamarine light.

From the steel saber, a force as powerful as monstrous waves erupted, slashing down directly at Ling Xiao’s head.

Ling Xiao’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.

This was indeed beyond his expectations.

However, his reaction was extremely swift, as he wielded the Rainfall Sword to block the attack.

Boom!

Crack!

After the collision between the saber and sword, the ground beneath Ling Xiao’s feet actually caved in, revealing the soft earth underneath.

"Furious Wind Shuttle!"

With the Rainfall Sword in his right hand blocking the opponent’s attack, Ling Xiao summoned the Angry Wind Sword in his left hand and launched a signature technique.

This move was valued for its speed, being extremely fast and agile.

He had thought that this technique, when executed, would at the very least repel the foe if not injure them, allowing for an opportunity to counterattack.

But to Ling Xiao’s surprise, the inferior officer actually had a slower speed and managed to block his sword strike with a sharp dagger in his left hand.

Bang Crack!

Ling Xiao felt his legs sink about a foot into the ground, while the inferior officer was blasted away and embedded into the roof.

"Quite interesting, the beings that appear here seem to be able to learn some of their opponent’s abilities. Although it’s not complete, once martial artists panic as a result, they are doomed to fail!"

Ling Xiao smiled slightly, retracted his swords, and unleashed the Hell Dragon Sword, his black-golden Sword Qi stabbing towards the officer still stuck in the roof.

He was curious to see just how strong this fellow could be.

Who would have thought that, although stuck, the foe would put away his blade, punch out with his fists, and a white shark, condensed from True Essence, collided with Ling Xiao’s Hell Dragon Sword.

Boom!

The Hell Dragon Sword actually shattered into pieces, but the white shark continued to lunge at him.

"Interesting!"

Ling Xiao’s eyebrows furrowed slightly as he once again condensed the Hell Dragon Sword, but this time with a powerful Destruction Will infused within it.

The inferior officer, sensing the terrifying nature of this incoming attack, drew his saber once more, condensed his True Essence, and slashed out.

The saber’s Sword Qi was exceedingly sharp. Ling Xiao absolutely believed that this one strike could easily cut down a Half-step Celestial exerting seventy percent strength.

Even martial artists of the same strength level wouldn’t dare to confront this strike head-on; otherwise, they would be seriously injured.

However, Ling Xiao was no ordinary person.

The Destruction Will also instantly heightened to the fourth level, and he unleashed his full power.

The black flames on the Hell Dragon Sword surged more violently, and the sword itself seemed larger than before.

Boom!

The Hell Dragon Sword, enforcing the fourth level of Destruction Will and full Ten Levels of Strength, finally shattered the saber’s Sword Qi, and the inferior officer was then pierced through, dissolving into black mist and merging into Ling Xiao’s body.

In an instant!

The Sword Qi severed the opponent’s treasured sword, and the white silhouette turned into a bright white light.

"What pure True Essence! It can completely merge with my own True Essence without any transformation needed—this place is truly a paradise for cultivators!"

Ling Xiao couldn’t help but feel excited.

Of course, the most wonderful part wasn’t just that, but he discovered that his Martial Veins had begun to change due to this infusion of True Essence.

The Martial Veins that were close to each other started showing signs of merging.

After the fusion, the energy did not diminish, but the space within the Martial Veins would expand significantly.

"Right now, I have fully integrated four Martial Veins, and if things go well, after this trip to the True Demon Forbidden Land, my Cultivation Level might directly advance to the Heavenly Man Realm, which will really be fun."

Ling Xiao never felt that advancing to the Heavenly Man Realm was a way to bully others.

Because he didn’t believe that the Sixth Young Master of Sacred Dynasty would just wait for others to catch up.

Although he detested that Holy Son, the qualifications of that Holy Son were undeniable; only by continually strengthening his cultivation would he stand a better chance in the upcoming battle with the Holy Son.

Whoosh!

A sword Qi shot out, piercing through the nearby wall.

His Cultivation Level had broken through again, reaching seven levels of strength at Half-step Celestial!

And this was not even the final stage; he already had such capability.

If Tang Jiu were still alive, Ling Xiao believed that he now had a full ten levels of strength to defeat him, and the process would not exceed fifty moves!

He had already beaten the subordinate officer, while most others were stuck unable to advance past the Fifth-Level soldiers.

In face of the terrifying strength of this Fifth-Level soldier, more people were continuously eliminated.

Finally, the number of people was reduced to just over one hundred fifty.

The top one hundred fifty were qualified to enter the finals.

That’s why everyone was biting down hard and persevering.

But when they encountered the subordinate officer, in just an instant, another hundred people were directly eliminated.

Less than fifty remained.

On Moon Hua Sect’s side, Dai Yuling and Leng Hao had no choice but to withdraw.

"Sorry Sect Master, we’ve also been eliminated."

Although Leng Hao said this, his face couldn’t hide the excitement.

His Cultivation Level had unexpectedly reached five levels of strength at Half-step Celestial.

Dai Yuling’s situation was similar.

Both of their Cultivation Levels had improved too quickly; it was a bit regrettable that they couldn’t continue, or else the benefits would certainly have been even greater.

"Don’t think too much about it, your gains are already very substantial. Besides, just coming back alive is progress in itself!"

These words weren’t just a consolation but the truth.

After all, when these two participated in the preliminary round, they weren’t particularly strong. Wu Xiang had not expected them to have made it this far at one go, which was already beyond expectation.

"We only have Ling Xiao and Lan Yu’er left from Moon Hua Sect now, right? How are they doing?"

Wu Xiang was most looking forward to Ling Xiao.

This junior brother of his always managed to create surprising miracles; he wondered what astonishing things Ling Xiao might achieve this time.

"Rest assured, Sect Master. Sister Lan probably gained quite a bit; she was already strong in her Cultivation Level, plus she has the ’Moon Radiance Holy Scripture’. When she comes out this time, she might even surprise you,"

Dai Yuling laughed: "As for Ling Xiao, you have even less to worry about. He’ll probably emerge as the biggest dark horse in these preliminaries. No one can imagine his terrifying rate of growth."

Next to him, Leng Hao could hardly restrain himself and directly sent a message to Wu Xiang: "Sect Master, let me tell you something. Wan She of Jade Water Divine Palace, Luo Tianyu of Heavenly King Sect, Tang Jiu of Tang Sect, were all wiped out by Senior Brother Ling, oh, and that Ao Chu from Sword King Sect, too."

"Well done!"

Wu Xiang revealed a look of delight.

He was familiar with the circumstances of those few; they were not average individuals and were known for their cruelty and ruthlessness. Wu Xiang could even speculate why Ling Xiao wanted to kill them.

"Let’s keep this matter to ourselves for now, so as not to cause any unintended complications."

Though Wu Xiang was happy, he also understood the seriousness of the situation.

Heavenly King Sect, Tang Sect, Jade Water Divine Palace - none of them were easy to provoke.

Fortunately, except for Tang Jiu’s death which was somewhat noticeable, the others died either unnoticed or known only to a few.

Even if someone spoke out, there was no real proof.
