Chapter 392: Petty Mindedness

At this moment, even a dull Yanling Realm understood that the one who was attacking him covertly was Tang Luo. Outraged, he was about to shout accusations, but he saw Mi Chu atop the phoenix waving at him, swallowing the rebuke that was nearly blurted out, and stood off to one side with a gloomy face.

“Tang Luo, since you know about Mi Bai’s traitorous identity, why do you still protect him? Are you dissatisfied with the decision made by our two clans to eradicate traitors!?” A hint of interest rose in Mi Chu’s eyes. Although he had been repeatedly reminded by Mi Shen that if he encountered Tang Luo, he should not converse but act immediately, he thought since the life-and-death duel had already been set, a chat before the fight wouldn’t do any harm. He couldn’t really see the margin for maneuver in the act of publicly defying the decision made by both families, and shielding a traitor.

From the bottom of his heart, Mi Chu really hoped that under everyone’s eyes Tang Luo would admit that he wanted to protect the traitor, so that he would then have a reason to kill him directly in the next battle!

Indignantly, Tang Luo used the Heavenly Dragon’s Shadow to place the child far away, then tilted his head towards Mi Chu at the high place, and disdainfully said, “Not only do I know that he is a descendant of the Mi village, but I also disapprove of the decision made by the two families to wipe out the village. Have you any objections to that?”

As soon as he finished speaking, a gasp swept through the Jianglin. Even Mi Bai trembled all over, unable to believe what he was seeing, looking at Tang Luo’s back in disbelief.

“A scholar who is not even a Mortal Realm, accompanied by dozens of immature children, and you perceive them as a fearful beast? Does the Mi family only produce cowards like you!?” Tang Luo’s voice was like the tolling of a great bell, it echoed in all directions, causing people’s faces to go pale.

When has Mi Chu, who had always been a standout among his peers, suffered such humiliation? His eyes reddened instantly, the thousands of spirit beast souls within his body boiling with rage. He launched a full-force punch towards Tang Luo’s face.

The massive spiritual power, drawn by the beast soul, formed a powerful blast, like the roar of an ancient behemoth. The huge red and black spiritual power formed a beast figure and surged towards Tang Luo. The entire space was shaking as though it couldn’t withstand the stress.

It was Mi Chu’s unique skill – Beast King Raid!

The overwhelming spirit art rained down on Tang Luo’s head with a boundless dominance. The attack was made out of anger, not only did its might far surpass the standard of a Mortal Realm Spirit Art, but it was even more overpowering than during the fighting ring match with Old Xu. Many of the Tang Clan members present tightened up as they watched Mi Chu’s most lethal move. Some of the ladies and gentlemen of the Tang Clan were even more afraid that Tang Luo would die under this spirit art, their eyes full of fear.

Originally standing behind Tang Luo, Mi Bai’s mind went blank when he saw the powerful blow that blotted out the sky and sun. It was as if he had been deprived of his senses by a ferocious beast.

Just when everyone believed that Tang Luo could only escape in panic, he just raised his left hand high. Suddenly, a giant Yin-Yang vortex appeared and collided with the Beast King Raid that was powerful enough to tear down mountains and overturn hills. The beast king’s illusion crashed headlong into the vortex causing ripples to form, intending to shatter the Yin-Yang and kill the young man behind it. However, once it made contact, it was as if a boat had collided with a whirlpool, the Beast King Raid that could shatter a mountains ridge was easily annihilated. The black and white vortex spun and absorbed Mi Chu’s unique skill without leaving a trace. The domineering spirit art, which had blotted out the sky and sun as though it had never appeared in the first place, left only a large black and white vortex that Tang Luo held in mid-air, still spinning slowly but firmly.

Tang Luo casually blocked Mi Chu’s Beast King Raid, all the people in the Jianglin were shocked, What’s even more terrifying is that, Mi Chu, standing atop the phoenix, was in a state of a Mortal Realm peak with his Spirit and Intent merged, his spiritual power boiling with surge, could be felt clearly even from far away. On the other side, Tang Luo, looking as though he did not take it seriously, had his spiritual power flowing steadily, without a hint of aggression.

After one stroke, the perceived strength of the fighters reversed instantly, and everyone in the Jianglin looked at Tang Luo with a hint of surprise.

While standing atop the phoenix, even Mi Chu, upon seeing his strongest move easily eliminated and the beast souls that were supposed to be connected to him vanished without a trace, his face darkened oddly. As he suddenly realized, he didn’t know his opponent at all.

Other than knowing that Tang Luo advanced to Mortal Realm at the age of thirteen, and that he had drawn a match with a disciple from Martial Saint Mountain, he had not paid attention to any information about Tang Luo at all. His opponent’s preferred Spirit Art, tactical moves, any special secret arts being practiced, body tempering level, understanding of strength, and fighting style, everything was unknown. And in a life-and-death battle, the unknown means danger. Mi Chu furrowed his brows tightly and a sense of creeping unease at the lack of control began to grow within him.

But his countless victories following his Mortal Realm accomplishments gave Mi Chu boundless confidence. Compared to random speculation, he had more faith in his absolute strength. Although Tang Luo showed very novel things, it was not enough to make him feel fear. Mi Chu’s mouth sketched a bloodthirsty curve as he said to Tang Luo, “Now this is interesting, I was really afraid that I might kill you with one hit!”

“Your mouth is harder than your moves.” Tang Luo dissipated the vortex in his hand and replied dismissively.

He then turned to Mi Bai and said, “You take the child and step back for a while. After I’ve dealt with Mi Chu, we’ll talk.”

Without waiting for Mi Bai’s response, Tang Luo used the Heavenly Dragon’s Shadow to place the child and Mi Bai encased in the big net, into the squad where the descendants of the Tang Clan were at a distance behind him.

At this time, Mi Chu, who was originally standing on top of the phoenix, also flew down, stretching his whole body, making creaking noises, wearing a mocking expression on his face.

Tang Luo saw the confident and relaxed look of his opponent, and he was also a little impressed, thinking: Ignorance indeed seems to foster more confidence than knowledge, just like Mi Chu in front of him. He doesn’t seem to know anything, yet he seems certain of winning.

Fighting, whether it’s a small scuffle or a large-scale military expedition, boils down to a gamble, and the most important resource in a gamble is information.

The reason why a military family can win every battle is simply because of their understanding of themselves and their enemy. After spending the entire night in the Wind Media Department, Tang Luo had a thorough understanding of Mi Chu, the pride of the Mi family, who was standing before him.

As the most prominent figure of talent in Xiling in the last decade, and the possessor of a beast soul bloodline, Mi Chu not only had extradentary talent, but after awakening his beast soul bloodline, he also developed four unique abilities, Devouring Souls, Fusion, Mimicry, and Beast Mastery, each one with formidable power.

It was this Earth-Level third-tier beast soul bloodline that widened the gap between his strength and that of an ordinary Mortal Realm peak by almost tenfold. The root cause of this was the Soul Devouring ability of the beast soul bloodline.

This ability to kill spirit beasts and assimilate their souls into his own gave a Mortal Realm martial artist the power to boost his power that could normally only be obtained in the Fierce Realm: the Power of Soul!

When a person is born, they possess the Three Souls and Seven Spirits. The Souls are: Fetal Light, Bright Spirit, and Ghostly Essence.

The Spirits are: Corpse Dog, Hidden Arrow, Sparrow Shadow, Thief Swallower, Non-Poison, Filth Remover, and Rotten Lung.

The Three Souls govern the life, desires, and courage. The Seven Spirits govern the six senses, five internal organs, and six viscera.

Therefore, a strong physical body leads to a robust soul, and when the Three Souls and Seven Spirits reach a certain level of strength, they can merge into one and explode with various powers, which is the most important step in transcending from Mortal Realm to Fierce Realm: creating the Soul!
