Ace Of Terrans

Chapter 773: The Sword. (3)

Shi Lang issued a challenge, expressing a desire to engage in combat, yet Tian Long struggled to control his temper. The crowd found amusement in this exchange, having witnessed many unruly experts, but this marked the first time someone acted unruly in the presence of numerous Immortal Sovereigns.

Lady Amethyst asked, "Boy, do you realize that you're not only disrespecting a sovereign but also the entire martial council?"

Shi Lang bowed slightly and replied, "I apologize to you, senior. However, given my relationship with Sovereign Tian Long, I'm addressing him as a friend. I have no intention of offending any of you esteemed seniors."

Old Man Yanshu chuckled and said, "I did not think that you would have such skill with your words, boy. Good for you."

Shi Lang smiled but remained silent. Sovereign Mandala said, "Go on, then challenge anyone you'd like to."

The Terran clasped his hands, thanking the monk before looking around. Shi Lang then stated, "I wish to compete with that Fellow Daoist."

All eyes turned to the person he pointed at, and a collective gasp swept through the crowd. The individual stood indifferently, emanating a powerful aura, as if spiritual energy ran rampant in his body. Mandala commented, "Your desire for battle is quite strong; you've challenged Celestus Stone."

Shi Lang raised his brow, and the lady continued, "Celestus Stone was born with a special physique; his body is made up of celestial stone. To date, the battles he's won didn't require him to break a sweat. He's an invincible wall on the battlefield."

The Terran nodded and said, "Good, I hope he lasts long."

Yanshu chuckled and said, "Let them fight then."

Shi Lang hopped off his pillar and rushed to fight Celestus but not before sneakily kissing Amelia, who blushed as if blood was about to drip from her face. Celestus watched all this with an indifferent expression. Shi Lang stood before him and said, "Ready?"

Celestus nodded, and Shi Lang moved; he appeared before the former with his fists charged with lightning. The attack was quick and strong; the void folded from the momentum. Yang Niao whistled and remarked, "Would you look at that? He looks serious."

The people on the other pillars nodded, and Amethyst waved her hand to create a barrier around the pillar where Celestus and Shi Lang were fighting. Shi Tao raised her gaze at her, when the lady said, "Do not worry; you people seem to have a better understanding of him than all of us together."

Amelia shook her head and replied, "Senior, I would not be so sure. In our world, if you ask someone what they know about him, they will say he is unpredictable and scary."

Yanshu smiled and asked, "Child, does it mean he is a pioneer in your world?"

Shi Tao shook her head and replied, "No, senior. He is the Ace in the deck of cards. A card that trumps them all."

The people were stunned at this, and Tian Long said, "While the two of them are warming up, please tell everyone more about him."

Shi Tao clasped her fists and said, "My father was the person who revived spiritual energy in our world. He was the one who restored the path of ascension by fighting a demonic cultivator's avatar. He was the one who changed the system of how our entire society functioned.

If any of you go down there right now and say something bad about him, regardless of our strength, the entire world will rebel against you.

Also, when I say world I do not mean just us humans, but all sorts of creatures who can cultivate or enjoy equal rights. In your world, there is competition, but there is no enmity. However, before leaving the world he formed an organization that watches over those who would stir trouble and maintain the balance."

Amelia smiled at this and felt her chest swell up. She did not notice that her chin was slightly raised up to the house. Shi Tao continued, "I will speak for myself, but to me, Baba is a god. Even if he walks the path of darkness I will follow him. Don't be scared; it is just an exaggeration of how I feel about him.

He went across the rivers of stars to kill an entire species to avenge the honor of our people. So, I hope you can understand what sort of a person he is."

Tian Long sighed; he did not think that Shi Tao would go on and give off such an excellent image of Shi Lang's character. However, he could not help but feel happy about it. The Sovereigns were all indifferent and Amethyst said, "No matter what he has done in his lower realm. Those things do not mean a thing in this world."

Shi Tao nodded and replied, "I understand that, but Senior, look at him. A person who ascended from a lower realm just a few years ago, how did he manage to climb the top of the pillar amongst the plethora of geniuses?"

The Sovereigns were left speechless for an answer. This was indeed a fact they could not refute. Tian Long commented, "Oh, someone is getting serious."

Everyone caught the hint and turned their gazes at the pillar. Shi Lang and Celestus were moving all over the place and they were exchanging blows. The Terran had been using the technique he used against Tian Long.

Lightning flash fist and the damage it did was too much for anyone to handle. Earlier when Shi Lang was fighting, he could not even get Celestus to move. It was as if his body was made up of metal. However, when Lightning met metal, it was a melodious symphony in the prelude of victory.

The battle was in Shi Lang's favor, but it was not a small or instant victory. Celestus was forced to give a reply. His speed was slow, but every blow that connected with Shi Lang was crazy strong. The Terran chuckled and commented, "You are making my bones tingle. Hahahaha, good feeling."

The people were stunned that Shi Lang was going toe to toe with the cultivator who was known as the wall in the battlefield. Celestus was the first to charge through the lines, and he had slain countless enemies, yet he managed to come back from every battle without anything as much as a few wounds.

The even more baffling fact was that Shi Lang had already managed to wound Celestus. After fighting with each other, Celestus was overwhelmed for the first time and he said in his deep voice, "After all these years, I cannot remember when was the last time anyone in the same realm pushed me this much. Fellow Daoist, you have ignited my spirit to battle. Come."

As he said that, he summoned his Dao Armor and Dao Crown, and a jet black mace appeared in his hand. Someone from the crowd said, "Titan King!"

The crowd started chanting, "Titan King! Titan King! Titan King!"

Shi Lang was repelled by a mace attack. He raised his head and laughed. Then everyone saw a red armor of lightning condense on his body, and a red and gold crown appeared on his head. Shi Lang moved at a speed faster than

before. Celestus was unable to sense the Terran approaching him.

Celestus yelled, "Titan Body."

His body turned black as if made of iron. The attacks still troubled him, but his defense was enhanced; he was sure that if he could hit Shi Lang with his mace, things would turn in his favor. However, the next moment something changed.

All the chants faded, and the wind stopped. Celestus shivered; he turned around to find Shi Lang looking at him with a calm expression but eyes brimming with battle intent. Bo Qingtan sighed and remarked, "He is going to wield the sword."

Yun Xue nodded and said, "Good, the fight is about to end."

The people were confused when they heard Shi Lang say, "Sword, come!"

Raksha appeared from inside his spirit tattoo, and everyone stood up in shock. The entire populace of the four layers of the arena stood up on their feet, and all the Sovereigns who were watching from the clouds appeared in the void above the battle pillars. They all gazed at Tian Long with envy and hatred.

Lao Xu was among these people, and he asked, "Why did you lend him a heavenly spirit weapon?"

Tian Long smiled and said, "Do you think I am that selfless? That weapon chose him when he was in the lower realm. It is cultivated by not only laws of Dao but also the blood of demonic cultivators. That weapon is not to be envied; it is one with the cultivator."

The impact of this moment will last for ages. A member of the viewers said, "The sky changes color when the Shura King calls for his sword."

The crowd chanted, "Shura King! Shura King!"

The sky had changed color as soon as Shi Lang grasped the hilt of the sword.
