Chapter 60 - Life And Death Battle (I)
After listening to that cold and domineering voice, Ling Chen suddenly looked up to the sky.
Thousands of meters away in the air, an unfamiliar figure stood like a deity in the sky, towering above the clouds.
Though that person was thousands of meters away, Ling Chen was still able to see his feature as clear as the day due to his left eye power.
This person was wearing a grey robe. He seemed to be in his forties and had a handsome face and a delicate short dark hair.
He was standing there alone on top of the clouds like an ancient God or a majestic mountain suppressing the whole world with his terrifying aura.
The middle-aged wore a sinister smile on his face as he was coldly looking down at Ling Chen from thousands of meters away in the sky.
Looking at the expression of the middle-aged man as well as the disdainful smile on his face, anger boiled within Ling Chen's heart.
Swoosh!!
He obviously didn't like the feeling of being stared down from the sky as though he was an ant, as such, with a swoosh sound, he stepped in the air and flew into the sky.
Watching Ling Chen ascended to the sky, the middle-aged man didn't even do anything. He was still standing there with his emotions and expressions unchanged, however, his body was emanating a terrifying aura that was like a storm capable of tearing apart anything that dared to come close.
Before long, Ling Chen already flew high up in the sky and was standing a few meters away from the man.
While the man was inspecting Ling Chen with his cold piercing eyes, Ling Chen was also examining him as well.
Looking at the man up close, Ling Chen felt his heart trembling. A strange glow flashed in his eyes, but no one knew what he was thinking.
In his eyes, the man in front of him didn't seem like a human but a giant demonic sword shaped like a human. His cold eyes were like a sharp sword.
From a single glance, Ling Chen could tell that this man was a powerful swordsman.
Swords were considered as the king among weapons, using only a single instant to reap lives. Fighting against powerful sword experts required one to be exceedingly careful.
Facing this man, for the first time, Ling Chen felt the premonition of extreme danger assailing his sense.
Furthermore, there was a faint blue luster flickering in the man's black eyes; one wouldn't be able to see it without a careful look.
The atmosphere of confrontation between the two sides suddenly became extremely quiet and strange.
"Boy, show your true self. You don't have to hide behind that meager illusion of yours, you can't escape my Heaven Rank Divine Gaze Battle Technique." Suddenly said the middle-aged man.
His voice was filled with contempt. At the same time, his pupils had completely changed. They were without any white or black, there was only an azure gaze. It was as if his eyes were crafted from a precious blue gemstone.
The moment the man's eyes turned azure from black, Ling Chen felt as though he was naked. All of his secrets seemed to be out in the open.
Still, he remained as calm and motionless as a mountain, but there was a very tyrannical aura surging around him. His entire body was covered with faint dark energy, and there was not the slightest fear across his face.
As the two sides stood opposite, on both sides of the blue sky, there were two entirely different currents of energy clashing.
One side was like a threatening monstrous fiery wave, the other an apocalyptic pitch-black aura.
The oppressive atmosphere of the widely different strengths made it as though the sky was divided into two.
"Who are you?" Ling Chen asked with a cold icy tone as he turned back to his ten years old true self. At this moment, he no longer needed to hide his true self.
Though the man was able to see through his illusion, Ling Chen didn't get mad or flustered because he knew that there were some powerful battle techniques out there that allowed one to see through many illusions and other things.
" A little brat like you isn't qualified to know my name." Abruptly replied the man in a murderous tone.
"But I have to say, the rumors are really true, you are indeed a little devil. If you had been giving a year or two, I am afraid that you would have the power to turn the whole Heaven Desolate Region upside down." Added the man with his eyes filled with killing intents.
He could clearly tell from the terrifying aura surging around Ling Chen's body that he had already broken through the Martial Venerable realm.
Even though he didn't want to believe it, the fact was right there in front of him.
According to his research, three months ago, the little bastard was just a Martial Sovereign realm and now he had already broken through the Martial Venerable realm.
Just what kind of terrifying speed was that!
It took him one hundred and seventy years to get to his present realm and he was considered as a heaven-defying genius in his sect, and now he was looking at a ten years old little kid that had already accomplished the same feat.
If he was called a heaven-defying genius for breaking through the Martial Venerable realm in a century than what would they called someone who had done the same thing in a decade.
A monster!
"You must be from the Supreme Sword Dao Sect. Are you here to avenge those disciples that were sent to kill me."
"Let's see, If I remember correctly, one of them begged me to spare his life and saying that his master was a grand elder of the Supreme Sword Dao Sect."
" Are you the one?. Ling Chen said in a disinterested tone like he said something that had nothing to do with him.
However, the moment those words came out of his mouth, the countenance of the middle-aged man suddenly changed. His expressions became ominous and cruel.
The man's face was full of anger and hatred and the expressions in his eyes were even more ferocious as if he wanted to skin Ling Chen alive.
In the meantime, a wave of killing intent surrounded Ling Chen. The killing intent surrounding Ling Chen was terrifying enough to be compared to tangible swords as if the owner of the killing intent would completely tear him to pieces in the next second.
Nonetheless, Ling Chen's complexion didn't change. In fact, he even had a sinister smile on his face as he was looking at the man who seemed as though he was about to be engulfed with hatred.
" If you want to die that badly, I guess I have no choice but to fulfill your wish." the middle-aged man said.
His strange voice was tinged with inward anger, like the agitation before the eruption of a volcano.
At the same time, as his voice fell, a flush of skyrocketing fiery power surged up from the man's body and a giant black sword suddenly appeared in his right hand.
The man then grabbed the giant black sword, raised it high above him as it released a horrifying surge of killing intent. historical
This surge of killing intent, strong beyond comparison, shot into the sky.
The sky which was originally vast and clear became blood red, with stormy clouds crowding the sky.
A vague fiery translucent figure appeared behind the man.
It was a forty meters tall giant. The fiery giant stood straight and appeared like a demonic god.
As the giant sword in the man's right and was slowly raised over his head, the Long Sword in the giant's hand was raised simultaneously.
However, unlike the man's sword, the giant's sword was made purely of fiery True Qi energy.
"Domain Projection." Ling Chen murmured to himself as he was looking at the giant figure that was exerting an enormous amount of pressure on him.
Rumble ~~~ The whole earth seemed to be trembling as killing intent permeated the air.
"God Slaying Sword Art, the first form, God Slaying Slash!"
Shua!
The intense killing intent in the man's eyes exploded and seemed to take form as it swept everything away. The giant black sword that was raised high above his head fiercely hacked down.
The terrifying giant behind him which was his domain projection also swung his sword down.
The void seemed to be torn in half by this swift giant slash.
An unparalleled sword strike!
The world roared and the air seemed to solidify.
All light immediately disappeared, leaving only a majestic bloody sword shadow.
Facing this unparalleled giant sword slash, Ling Chen seemed like a small insect without the power to resist.
