Chapter 379(2: ): Reversal

Shang Xia’s third martial intent wasn’t just a tyrannical physical attack. It could sunder a cultivator’s soul too!

Kou Chongxiue once said that Shang Xia’s Divine Killing Spear had the ability to shatter divine sense, and that was the true meaning behind its name. It could destroy both the physical body and one’s soul.

One had to know that Shang Xia’s Divine Killing Spear managed to affect Kou Chongxue’s Martial Dipper Realm clone. Even though it was a mere clone, Kou Chongxue’s true cultivation level was still at the Martial Dipper Realm.

Shang Xia was able to affect an expert at that level, much less a Martial Extermination Realm cultivator like Sima Zhanxing whose cultivation had been stagnant at the point where he just broke through.

With the tyrannical might contained in the spear, Sima Zhanxing felt his divine sense freezing helplessly.

When he was struck by Shang Xia’s Divine Killing Spear, his body trembled violently as he fell to the ground. Of course, he wasn’t exactly dead yet.

Even though he had confidence in his ability to injure a Martial Extermination Realm expert, Shang Xia knew that it wasn’t enough to kill one.

As such, Shang Xia quickly adjusted his condition after dealing with Sima Zhanxing’s Spirit Gathering Fist. When he gathered enough Origin True Qi, he rushed to the location where Sima Zhanxing fell.

There wasn’t a need to speak for Sima Zhanxing who took the brunt of Shang Xia’s attack. Liu Qinglan and Pan Yunbi who were fighting in mid air turned to look at the only Martial Intent Realm expert in the surrounding area in shock.

What the hell did they just witness?

A Martial Intent Realm cultivator just sent a Martial Extermination Realm expert to the shadow realm!

If they didn’t witness it themselves, they would have laughed at anyone who told them what happened to oblivion.

When one entered the Martial Extermination Realm, they would finally understand the fundamental difference between themselves and cultivators who have yet to reach their level. It was a gap that was theoretically impossible to cross. However, the truth was displayed right in front of them.

“Useless piece of trash! He’s really useless!” Pan Yunbi raged as anger filled her heart. She didn’t think that her teammate would be defeated by a mere ant-like Shang Xia!

With her extermination origins surrounding her, she quickly retreated from the battle with Liu Qinglan. Pan Yunbi knew that the number of Martial Extermination Realm experts on both sides were the key to victory. The moment Sima Zhanxing fell, the advantage the cultivators of the Azure Spiritual World obtained a moment ago would disappear!

Moreover, the problem wasn’t the battle at hand. Sima Zhanxing was defeated in the hands of a Martial Intent Realm cultivator! If they allowed Shang Xia to continue to grow, things would get extremely troublesome for the Azure Spiritual World! Not only did Pan Yunbi have to save Sima Zhanxing, she also had to kill Shang Xia!

No matter how lowly Sima Zhanxing’s status was, he was still a Martial Extermination Realm cultivator at the end of the day. His fighting strength couldn’t be ignored.

Naturally, the same thoughts were playing out in Liu Qinglan’s mind, but in reverse. There was no way she could allow Pan Yunbi to save Sima Zhanxing and kill Shang Xia.

The moment Pan Yunbi turned around to leave, Liu Qinglan leaped into action to stop her. “Hmph, we haven’t decided a victor yet. Elder Pan, don’t be in a rush to leave!”

This time, Liu Qinglan was the one who took the initiative to attack Pan Yunbi. Pan Yunbi held the advantage in the past due to her deeper foundations, but Liu Qinglan was no weakling. She was an expert nurtured by the institution and she quickly adapted to the situation. With her stopping Pan Yunbi, the elder of the Changbai Holy Land wouldn’t be able to shake her off in a short period of time.

It didn’t take long for another pillar of light to shoot up into the skies from where Sima Zhanxing fell earlier.

The massive disturbance announced to the world that a second Martial Extermination Realm expert had fallen!

Pan Yunbi’s expression darkened but she quickly made her decision. She forced Liu Qinglan back before rushing in the opposite direction where Sima Zhanxing fell. With the speed of Martial Extermination Realm experts. She managed to open up the distance between herself and Liu Qinglan by almost ten miles in the blink of an eye. Since Sima Zhanxing had fallen and the Marital Intent Realm cultivator had the ability to kill Martial Extermination Realm experts, it didn’t make sense for her to let Liu Qinglan meet up and join forces with the Martial Intent Realm cultivator to deal with her.

When Sima Zhanxing was defeated by Shang Xia’s Divine Killing Spear earlier, he understood that his fate was sealed. After all, his divine sense was extremely fuzzy and he wasn’t able to call upon his extermination origin as he wished.

Facing death, Sima Zhanxing discovered that not a trace of fear remained in his heart. All the despair he felt earlier had disappeared as he seemed to have accepted his fate. The dignity of a Martial Extermination Realm expert reappeared and he sighed heavily when he saw the approaching Shang Xia. “If not for the fact that I had to remain in the Azure Spiritual World and live my days like a street rat, I wouldn’t have died in your hands. Unfortunately, that was my fate.”

.

Seeing the storm of heaven and earth qi gathering around Sima Zhanxing’s body as he detonated his soul, Shang Xia understood that his killing of a Martial Extermination Realm expert this time was made up of many lucky factors that benefited him.

Like what Sima Zhanxing said. If not for the fact that he had to run into the Azure Spiritual World a year ago, he would have been able to draw on the support of his Sima Family and the Rose Party. He wouldn’t be in such a sorry state where he could be defeated by a mere Martial Intent Realm cultivator.

Sima Zhanxing was basically a pauper when he fought Shang Xia. Shang Xia had multiple rank three talismans with him and several precious treasures while all Sima Zhanxing had were his fists!

If Sima Zhanxing had the support of his Sima Family and the Rose Party, he would be able to bring out a lot more valuable treasures than Shang Xia! After all, he was a genius of the Sima Family who had attained Martial Extermination Realm cultivation. They would be more than willing to give him a ton of resources.

Whatever the case, the fact remains that Shang Xia managed to kill a Martial Extermination Realm expert in a one-on-one fight. His understanding towards how Martial Extermination Realm experts fought increased and his confidence received a huge boost.

Seeing the pillar of light that rose into the skies when Sima Zhanxing fell, Shang Xia didn’t choose to run away. Instead, he regained his composure slightly before rushing in the direction of Pan Yunbi and Liu Qinglan.

Of course, he wasn’t running over there because of his newfound confidence of slaying a Martial Extermination Realm expert. Instead, it was because he knew that there was no point in running away if Liu Qinglan’s opponent set her eyes on him.

He might not be able to kill Liu Qinglan’s opponent like how he did Sima Zhanxing, but he was more than able to lend Liu Qinglan a helping hand in her battle.

He could tell that Liu Qinglan and Pan Yunbi didn’t defer too much in strength, and since they were probably at a stalemate, his interference with the battle might just be what Liu Qinglan needed to turn the tides!

It didn’t take long before he approached the location where their battle was earlier. However, he discovered that the two of them had left the area!

After searching around a little bit more, Shang Xia had no choice but to give up his search.
