Chapter 302: Chapter 302: Ten Deaths and No Life - Part 1

"You’re also initiating a death challenge? Who are you challenging?"

The Transcendent Realm Guard let out a sigh, "What’s going on today? Is everyone on edge? Popping like firecrackers at the slightest provocation? They all seem too hot-tempered."

"I’m challenging him!"

Yang Cheng pointed at Ling Xiao and said, "Originally, I applied for an Outer Sect challenge, but since it’s on the same day, changing the location would be too troublesome. Let’s just settle it in the Desperate Tower."

"Hey, hey, isn’t this taking advantage of someone’s peril? He’s already set to challenge three top Outer Sect experts, and you want to join the fray? Why not wait a bit before doing it?"

"Senior brother, do you think I can afford to wait?" asked Yang Cheng.

"I guess you have a point. After today’s death challenge, this young guy will be dead, and you won’t have another chance."

The Transcendent Realm Guard exhaled wearily and looked towards Ling Xiao, "Do you accept? Actually, you can totally refuse. No one will laugh at you, and no one will force you."

"I accept!"

Ling Xiao planned to get all these problems out of the way in one fell swoop, to avoid future trouble.

The guard looked at Ling Xiao with a tinge of sympathy.

The young people these days are truly impulsive, the guard thought, recalling his own fiery past with a sigh, "Alas, if it were a mere challenge just to dampen one’s spirits, that would be one thing, but you’re driving yourself into a dead end!"

Four death challenges on the same day.

One was with the former tenth of the Outer Sect, now several times stronger than before.

The other three were with the sixth, fifth, and third of the Outer Sect.

He simply could not imagine what Ling Xiao could possibly rely on to claim victory.

Especially Jin Ming, ranked third—if we talk physical condition, he is undoubtedly the top of the Outer Sect, almost certain to survive a fight against even a first-level Transcendent Realm martial artist.

This guy has occupied the third spot for three to four years now, his power so fearsome that even the monsters ranked first and second are reluctant to provoke him hastily.

"Thank you for your concern, senior brother. I will be careful," said Ling Xiao as he gave a slight bow.

He knew that the person in front of him genuinely cared, it’s just a pity that he didn’t understand his abilities.

"Ah, go on, then. Go back and rest well, have some good food."

To this Transcendent Realm Guard, what Ling Xiao was about to do seemed no different from heading to the guillotine.

Ling Xiao didn’t offer any more explanations but simply smiled and then turned to leave.

Zhao Zhi wanted to stop him but eventually didn’t.

He knew Ling Xiao’s character all too well—no amount of persuasion would make a difference.

Yet while Zhao Zhi didn’t stop him, Zhao Ci rushed out instead.

"Ling Xiao, you are crazy, is committing suicide fun to you?"

Zhao Zhi slapped his forehead, suddenly realizing that his sister was typical of those with an overflow of compassion—she didn’t target anyone specifically, but sympathized and pitied all human beings.

Now she had extended this compassion to Ling Xiao.

"Princess Ci, I’m not ready to die just yet," Ling Xiao glanced at Zhao Ci, his figure flashing lightly, and Zhao Ci couldn’t possibly stop him.

"This madman!"

Zhao Ci stomped her feet in frustration.

Zhao Zhi just shook his head with a wry smile. Not just Zhao Ci, even he felt that Ling Xiao was on a suicide mission.

Not long after Ling Xiao left, the guards of the Desperate Tower made public the notice about Yang Cheng initiating a death challenge against him.

Four death challenges in one day immediately caused quite a stir throughout the entire Sect.

Especially in the Outer Sect—it was practically boiling.

But without exception, everyone thought Ling Xiao was courting death.

Even Lan Yu’er hadn’t expected the kid to undertake four death challenges in one day.

As a result, Yanɡ Dan Lin, Yuan Venerate, and Lan Yu’er all stormed into Ling Xiao’s cave dwelling, berating him for going mad and being reckless with his life.

Ling Xiao didn’t offer any explanation, simply responding with a smile.

After all, the notifications for the death challenges had already been announced, and there was no going back now, unless he, Ling Xiao, decided to leave the Moon Hua Sect and become a fugitive.

Of course, they hadn’t told Dai Yuling about this, for fear that she would not be able to focus on her recovery if she knew.

Meanwhile, inside the Puppet Hall, Yanɡ Chenɡ lay on a strange bed, undergoing some transformations.

"Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao, you’ve turned me into this state, I will certainly make your death a very ugly sight!"

Deep within his body, a Premium Spirit Stone spun at high speed, and his whole body emitted a special milky white glow.

Today, he had accepted the Puppet Hall’s modifications, preserving only his brain, with the rest of his body completely replaced by puppet mechanisms.

Now, all of his True Essence originated from the central core provided by the Demonflame Celestial, much stronger than the True Essence cultivated from a Gold Level Entry Internal Strength Technique, almost on par with the True Essence condensed from a Gold Tier Rare Internal Cultivation Mind Techniques.

It is known that no one in the Outer Sect was qualified to learn the Gold Tier Rare Martial Arts techniques, and he believed that his True Essence was certainly stronger than Ling Xiao’s.

Not only that, after precise modifications, any move he executed was now several times more powerful than before.

He could have challenged the ninth, or even the eighth, or the seventh in the Outer Sect, but he had chosen Ling Xiao, with revenge being his sole motive!

At the same time, within Hei Suo’s cave dwelling.

Jin Ming, Tuoba Shan, and Gongyang Nu were all present.

In addition, Senior Black Rope and Elder Black were there too.

It seemed that Hei Suo had already agreed to Elder Black’s conditions, with the reward being tenfold the original.

Otherwise, Elder Black wouldn’t be staying there.

"Elder Black, we’ll leave Lan Yu’er to you. Just block her from interfering," Hei Suo said, looking at Elder Black as he toasted him. "After all, my master, Heavenly Lord, is not fit to get involved."

"Leave it to me," Elder Black said as he finished his drink in one gulp.

To accept a person’s hospitality is to undertake to do their bidding. Having taken something from Hei Suo, Elder Black had to act on his behalf; otherwise, the tempestuous Demonflame Celestial would certainly not let him off the hook.

"Many thanks, Elder Black!"

Hei Suo bowed his hands in gratitude and then turned to look at Jin Ming and the others.

"Are you confident?"

Jin Ming replied indifferently, "Senior Black Rope, don’t worry. That Ling Xiao might not even get past Yanɡ Chenɡ. It may not even come to us needing to act."

"Still, we must not be careless."

Having been bested by Ling Xiao before, Hei Suo loathed the boy and yet took him very seriously.

"If Ling Xiao dares to issue a death challenge to you three, how could he not have some competence? Do not hold back during the battle, give it your all to kill that kid."

"Senior Black Rope, aren’t you overestimating the kid? Don’t forget, he has to fight four consecutive battles," Gongyang Nu said with a laugh. "Even if that waste Yanɡ Chenɡ can’t kill Ling Xiao, he should at least consume a good deal of the kid’s True Essence, or even inflict serious injury. Then I will take the stage to finish him off."

Hei Suo pondered and conceded the point.

Perhaps he was indeed worrying needlessly.

Even if Ling Xiao had truly hidden his strength, unless he had broken through to the Transcendent Realm, facing these four opponents would surely mean certain death.

He did not care about the lives of Yanɡ Chenɡ, Gongyang Nu, or Tuoba Shan. As long as these three could exhaust Ling Xiao as much as possible, that would suffice.
