Realizer of Death : The Reaper

Chapter 119 119

?The elders were shocked when they saw the technique used by Lin Zhantian in the arena. They recognized it because it was a killing move by the Lin family. The people on the high platform didn't expect Lin Zhantian to be able to master it at the age of less than thirty.

They knew it would take a very long time to practice that technique. Core disciples of the Lin family usually only mastered it when they were forty. If they were talented and possessed excellent comprehension, they could use it at the age of thirty, but such people were scarce, and only 3 in the history of the Lin family. One of them was the current patriarch, Lin Ruiming.

But now Lin Zhantian is using it in his twenties. It left the people on the high platform in awe.

"Tian'er used that technique! Is it okay for the enemy if he unleashes such a dangerous attack?" One of the elders from the Lin family spoke.

Peerless Sword Light is a powerful technique because it can kill its enemy in one hit. If Lin Zhantian couldn't properly control his power output, then that attack could split Tenku in two. He didn't want Lin Zhantian to kill his opponent in the match accidentally.

"Tian'er has no other choice because the opponent is so strong. If the worst happens, we can only think of it as fate. I hope you don't hold a grudge if something bad happens to your disciple because such incidents are common in a match in a martial arts competition." Lin Ruiming looked at Wang Haotian and said.

He knew that Tenku was Wang Haotian's only disciple. Lin Ruiming didn't want the other party to be angry and hold a grudge because Lin Zhantian injured that boy.

Although the Lin family wasn't afraid of the Wang family, they didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble. They weren't the Gu family who had big ambitions. But before Wang Haotian could reply, someone spoke first.

"I believe that the first elder of the Wang family will understand. If something bad happened to his disciple, he could only blame that boy for being weaker than his opponent." Gu Yuxuan sneered.

"Yeah, you're right. I agree with your words. If he was seriously injured or killed in that battle, he could only blame himself for being weak. I thank you for helping me answer patriarch Lin." Wang Haotian smiled and replied calmly.

His answer caused everyone on the high platform to freeze in silence. Wang Haotian's words sounded cold, and it looked like he didn't care about Tenku's safety. Even Gu Yuxuan was speechless as he didn't know how to respond. But they didn't know that those words weren't meant for Tenku but for his opponent in the arena.

(I wonder if you can repeat those words of yours after seeing your precious grandson have such a bad time in that match)

Wang Haotian looked at Tenku, who was calm despite being faced with Lin Zhantian's deadly attack.

Tenku swiftly moved away from Lin Zhantian just before he swung his sword. The bell in his mind rang loudly to let him know that the attack was dangerous.

Slash!

Right after Tenku left that place, a flash of light fell, creating a long, deep scar on the arena.

"So fast and strong!" Tenku frowned when he saw the sight. He did not expect Lin Zhantian to possess such a technique. Even though his opponent's sword was swift, Tenku saw it and felt its essence.

The attack used the compression of several swords Qi into one to become a sharp blade. Even though the technique was excellent and had terrifying destructive power, it couldn't be used often with Lin Zhantian's current cultivation base due to the enormous consumption of Qi. Thus, the best way to deal with it was to wait for the user to run out of power.

"As expected of a genius from a major family. You have a dangerous technique." Tenku said and increased his speed to avoid the place after noticing Lin Zhantian intended to swing his sword again.

Slash!

Another light fell and split the arena in two. Even though Gu Qingyang was busy with the thousands of petals confining him, he kept an eye on the situation around him and the battles of his two opponents. His face darkened when he saw the destructive power of Lin Zhantian's attack.

"He can already use that technique?" Gu Qingyang said in disbelief. He knew what technique Lin Zhantian released and how dangerous it was. Although he had a cultivation base at the middle stage of the Sky Origin realm, he would die if he was hit by that attack directly.

On the other hand, Tenku kept moving to avoid Lin Zhantian's attack. Every time the light from that attack fell, a vast scar would be created on the arena. While dodging Lin Zhantian's technique, Tenku suddenly raised his eyebrows after thinking of an idea.

Tenku ran around the arena at top speed while avoiding the light coming at her. After judging from the number of attacks Lin Zhantian had unleashed, he estimated that his opponent would soon run out of Qi before long. When the time came, he had to defeat Lin Zhantian quickly.

Lin Zhantian narrowed his eyes when he saw Tenku stop dodging his attacks. He thought it was his chance to beat him because his opponent was extremely fast for a cultivator in the Earth Origin realm. Even if only for a moment, that's enough for his attack to hit Tenku.

Slash!

Lin Zhantian swung his sword, but then he opened his eyes wide when he saw that his opponent was gone and replaced by Gu Qingyang, who was not far behind Tenku's previous position.

"Bastard!" Gu Qingyang roared in anger when he saw Lin Zhantian attack him. He knew it was not his intention, and Tenku had set him up.

"I will make you regret what you have done to me!" Gu Qingyang released his power, and the thousands of petals that trapped him were blown away. After that, he compressed the Qi in his sword and swung it in circles.

Evil King Slash!

Boooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmm!

Lin Zhantian and Gu Qingyang's attacks clashed, and the petals shattered under the impact.

"Tch! I'm tricked! He wants to use me to attack Gu Qingyang!" Lin Zhantian clicked his tongue. But then he felt goosebumps and quickly twisted his body while slashing his sword.

Clank!

Tenku suddenly appeared behind Lin Zhantian after disappearing from his sight and made him attack Gu Qingyang. He intended to defeat Lin Zhantian first. But a genius is still a genius, and his nickname is not without reason. Lin Zhantian had sharp instincts and good reflexes when in danger.

Moreover, Lin Zhantian was not stupid and knew the weaknesses of his technique. So before he ran out of Qi, he stopped using the attack.

"You are so cunning. I didn't think you to keep dodging my slashes because you wanted to lead my attacks towards Gu Qingyang." Lin Zhantian said in annoyance. It was the first time he had shown such an expression during the three days of competition. Usually, he is a person who can maintain his composure when faced with any problem.

"Is there something wrong with what I'm doing? As far as I remember, there isn't a rule from the competition that forbids me from having the other two competitors attack each other. You should already know that only one person can win this competition. As long as I don't cheat, then a little cunning is fine." Tenku smiled and replied calmly. After that, he injected a large amount of Qi into his sword and slashed it.

Tactical Rapid Slash!

Tenku released dozens of sword Qi toward Lin Zhantian and Gu Qingyang, who was approaching him with an angry face.

Lin Zhantian blocked some of Tenku's sword Qi directly and dodged some of it. He couldn't use the petals from his previous technique to counter that attack because Tenku and Gu Qingyang had already destroyed it.

"Bastard!" Qingyang shouted and slashed his sword against Tenku's attack. He was furious that he fell into Tenku's trap. Luckily, he was unharmed as he used his technique just before the light from Lin Zhantian's strike hit him.

Boom! Boom!

Lin Zhantian and Gu Qingyang managed to block Tenku's attack, and they charged at him simultaneously.

"I try to fight them one by one, so it won't be too much trouble for me. But in the end, I had to face both at once." Tenku sighed when he saw the two slash their swords at him. His face became serious, and he swung his sword to block their attacks of them.

Clank! Clank! Clank! Clank!

Tenku managed to block the consecutive attacks from Lin Zhantian and Gu Qingyang. Then he tightly gripped his sword and slashed horizontally at them.

CLANK!

"What!?" The two people were shocked as they were knocked back by just one slash. It was natural for Lin Zhantian because his strength was the same as Tenku, but it was a different story for Gu Qingyang because his cultivation base was far above those two people.

Before they stabilized themselves, Tenku slashed another sword Qi at Gu Qingyang and then chased after Lin Zhantian. The goal has not changed. He had to defeat Lin Zhantian first.

Lin Zhantian's face darkened when he saw Tenku darting toward him at lightning speed. He knew that Tenku wanted to beat him to win their bet. But then Lin Zhantian smiled coldly and slashed his sword at him.

Peerless Sword Light!

Lin Zhantian unleashed his killing move using all the remaining Qi within his body. He knew he would be exhausted after using that technique, but he had no choice in his current situation.

Even though Lin Zhantian couldn't get first place, he could win second place and his bet with Tenku. It was more than enough for him because Tenku would give him the essence of the Thousand Weapon Emperor Technique.

But Lin Zhantian's face solidified when he saw the scene before him. Tenku compressed his Qi until his blade vibrated violently and slashed at Lin Zhantian.

Sword of Demolition!

Slash!

The gigantic aura blade carved a terrifying sword mark along its trajectory in the arena and easily cut through the light from Lin Zhantian's attack. Lin Zhantian was shocked when he saw that sword Qi because he recognized something familiar to him as a swordsman.

"Sword intent!" Lin Zhantian said in a trembling voice, but he didn't have time to admire it because his situation was critical. If that attack hit him, then he would die.

Unfortunately, Lin Zhantian couldn't do anything about it in his current state and the aura of the blade with the sword intent was already in front of him. He closed his eyes and resigned himself to his fate. But before hitting Lin Zhantian, the aura blade's size suddenly shrunk and became a blur.

Slash!

The aura blade slashed through Lin Zhantian's chest, and the impact sent him flying out of the arena. Even so, he was still alive and had only lost consciousness.

"One has fallen. Now it's your turn." Tenku said in a low voice and turned his eyes to Gu Qingyang.
