Chapter 754 - This Is the End
historical
Song Tianba’s energy increased after he took the Boosting Yuan Elixir. Immense energy surged powerfully through the area like angry waves of the sea. Loose gravel and body parts lying on the ground floated in the air. Suddenly, both his feet lifted off the ground, and Song Tianba levitated in mid-air with his hair flying wildly in the wind. His face looked hideous and a great energy emanated from him.
“He has elevated from the Martial Lord level to the Martial Emperor stage!”
“His energy is still increasing. I believe he will achieve the middle stage of Martial Emperor level soon.”
“This Boosting Yuan Elixir is remarkable, and it has helped him advance to this state at such a speed.”
“But at an enormous cost!”
“Song Tianba has gone crazy because of his son’s death. He won’t stop until he kills the young man.”
The battle mesmerized the crowd watching from afar, but it did not stop their hearts from the being overwhelmed by dread.
“Shoot. It is forbidden to consume the Boosting Yuan Elixir. The old fart Song is only putting himself in great harm.”
Liang Xinghua put his hand over his face and said, “Retreat. Retreat as far away as possible. Who knows whether the old fart Song will come at us after killing that stupid young man! It looks like he has achieved the middle stage of the Martial Emperor level. He has become even stronger now. Let’s watch the show discreetly from afar.”
“Yes, Lord!”
The deputy replied and nodded stiffly. Then he waved to the Liang family guards and signaled for them to retreat farther back.
Song Tianba’s inner force had enhanced enormously. He smiled nastily and looked down at Xiao Luo who was still on the ground. His eyes were red. Clenching his teeth, he snarled, “Little jerk, I will kill you!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he swooped down at Xiao Luo from mid-air. The energy coming from the Martial Emperor swept over like a hurricane. So great was its force, it distorted the surrounding space, and even the brick buildings close by collapsed. As he approached Xiao Luo, he thrust out a palm emitting tremendous inner energy, directly at Xiao Luo’s head.
BOOM!
The ground collapsed. A furious dust storm rose as the immense energy swept across the street. Buildings and stalls crashed to the ground as the energy storm wrecked everything in its path.
It was so powerful it reached the crowd who watched from afar. Many fell to the ground, while some were even sent flying.
Liang Xinghua’s deputy was dazed. “That... That is the power of a Martial Emperor?” he asked with a pale look on his face.
“Dreadful, isn’t it? I feel its dreadful power, too. We can compare the disparity between the two martial levels to the gap between the earth and the heavens,” Liang Xinghua said in awe. He had just witnessed the transformation process Song Tianba had gone through from the Martial Lord level to the Martial Emperor level.
“That young man is as good as dead. Such dreadful energy can grind a Martial Lord into powder easily. There is no way that he can withstand Song Tianba’s power now,” said the deputy, looking at the thick dust created by the strike.
Liang Xinghua nodded his head in agreement, and said, “I agree.”
However, when the dust settled, what they saw made them gulp.
Xiao Luo was still standing. His hands were still on the cart. The True Inner Force he exerted not only protected him but kept the little girl and her mother’s bodies on the cart intact. Though the surrounding ground had collapsed, the area where he stood remained undamaged. That palm strike from Song Tianba did not even touch Xiao Luo’s body. It only deflected off the True Inner Force that he exerted.
Then Xiao Luo made his move as he stomped his right foot.
BAM!
Song Tianba’s energy was still locked with Xiao Luo’s True Inner Force when it burst with a thunderous blast. Song Tianba spit out blood instantly, and like a lost kite swept away in a gale, he lost his balance and went flying backward. He fell hard to the ground about ten or twenty miles away.
The exchange petrified Liang Xinghua and everyone who watched. They could not hide the look of shock in their eyes.
“How... How is that possible?”
“Song Tianba achieved Martial Emperor after taking the Boosting Yuan Elixir. Yet he can’t defeat that young man?”
“Is that young man a monster? His strength is unfathomable!”
Everyone was astonished, and what they saw only made them doubt their understanding of the levels and strengths in the martial arts world.
Holding the Dragon Saber firmly in his hand, Xiao Luo looked a frightful sight as he stood alone. He looked as if he despised the entire world and the look on his face astounded everyone there.
“My Lord, has he... has he achieved the Martial Emperor level, too? But how is that possible? He looks only twenty-five or twenty-six years old. Even if he started cultivating as soon as he was born, he still could not have progressed so rapidly,” said Liang Xinghua’s deputy. He gazed at Xiao Luo in disbelief.
The expression on Liang Xinghua’s face was difficult to read. Clenching his fist, he did not speak. No one knew what he was thinking.
“Urghh!”
After getting back up on his feet, Song Tianba opened his mouth to spit out thick blood. He was bleeding from his head and his face had a hideous look. His eyes were full of anger and rage, and he looked like a vicious ghost.
He stared at Xiao Luo with unbridled hostility, and scowled, “Little jerk!”
“This is the end. The sixth!” Xiao Luo said as he glared at Song Tianba indifferently and called him out as the sixth.
“Haha, haha... That’s bullsh*t!”
Song Tianba broke into a hoarse laugh. He had lost his faculties and turned into a crazy demon. He lunged at Xiao Luo again, bristling with rage as he advanced through the damaged street causing more destruction.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
As Song Tianba rampaged through the street snarling like a mad beast, his footfall shook the ground like thunder.
Xiao Luo remained calm and looked indifferent. Suddenly, he unsheathed his saber and slashed it down.
A beam of invisible knife energy thirty feet long shot across the air, leaving ripples in its path. Song Tianba’s body exploded and turned into a fog of blood. When the sword’s energy hit the ground, it struck with a resounding blast. A strong wind blew and massive clouds of dust covered the sky. Long cracks appeared on the ground, one after another. The strewn body parts disintegrated from the impact of the force, and the stain of blood was the only thing remaining on the ground.
“Mother ducker. The world is finally at peace!”
The Duck Emperor wiped the cold sweat off his forehead as he spoke. And only now did he know how cruel Xiao Luo could be
Just like that, Xiao Luo eliminated the Song family; the family that ruled Stan City for so many years.
Everyone who watched the battle felt like they had been in a dream. It was surreal. The young man squashed these tyrants who had been torturing them for so long. Everyone found it hard to believe what they had witnessed. They were reeling in shock. The young man, whose strength was immeasurable, remained a mystery.
“Song... Song Tianba is... dead.”
Liang Xinghua’s deputy looked very pale. In a trembling voice, he said, “He used his vital functions to break through to the Martial Emperor level, but he was still not a rival for this guy!”
Liang Xinghua was beyond the state of shock.
If the young guy killed Song Tianba, it meant he was at least a Martial Emperor. A Martial Emperor in his twenties? What’s wrong with the world? Was this level so easy to cultivate?
Liang Xinghua could not stop staring at Xiao Luo with amazement.
Xiao Luo did not linger. He slid the Dragon Saber back into its sheath, then turned around, and left. He continued his journey westward as if nothing significant had happened.”Wait!”Liang Xinghua called out and walked up to him hurriedly.
