Walking Right into the Line of Fire
"I'm asking you a question! Are you deaf?"
Duanmu Feng's voice grew louder, his anger rising.
"Trying to play the hero and save the damsel in distress? Die!"
Duanmu Feng's eyes were cold as he suddenly thrust his halberd forward.
Chen Ning raised his hand and unleashed a powerful burst of True Essence Power.
The next moment.
His halberd shattered instantly.
"Have you no manners? Can't you see I'm chatting?"
Chen Ning's voice turned cold.
Then.
An invisible force then lifted Duanmu Feng into the air.
Bang!
Bang!
His twenty-four ribs pierced through his flesh.
In an instant, blood was everywhere.
Duanmu Feng felt a chill run through his body and trembled as he looked at his chest.
It was hollow and terrifying.
His life was slipping away rapidly.
Far away.
The middle-aged garrison commander standing next to Lord Tang was dumbfounded, a chill running down his spine.
He actually killed Duanmu Feng was at the Seventh Level of the Spirit Martial Realm, in a single exchange.
Just how strong is this young man?
Previously at the city gate, he only knew that the girl beside Chen Ning was incredibly powerful, but he never expected that this young man who hadn't made a move was actually the most terrifying.
Lord Tang's pupils contracted slightly as he walked forward.
He was going to rescue Duanmu Feng.
The King Li launched a coup, and now is the time when he needs capable men.
It's not too late to save them.
If it had been a little later...
If life is allowed to slip away, Duanmu Feng will surely die.
"Sir, spare his life, and I'll guarantee you a complete corpse."
Lord Tang spoke indifferently, but his tone remained incredibly domineering.
When Chen Ning saw the mysterious person who had been hiding in the shadows for so long finally reveal himself, he looked at him and smiled, "Are you threatening me?"
"It's not a threat."
Lord Tang calmly said, "You have killed many of the King Li's subordinates, and you are doomed to die. However, I am magnanimous and have a heart that cherishes talent. I will grant you a proper burial and allow you to leave a final message, which I will surely convey."
The portly middle-aged guard shouted from the rear, "Our lord is magnanimous! Don't be ungrateful! Surrender now!"
However.
Chen Ning, however, had no intention of stopping.
Instead, he flipped his wrist.
Duanmu Feng fell directly to the ground and died.
Chen Ning smiled and said, "Sorry, my hand is sore..."
Lord Tang's face twitched, and he said in a dark tone, "You're slapping me in the face..."
After saying that.
His aura suddenly erupted.
They reached the peak of the Eighth Level of the Earth Martial Realm.
He was a powerful figure worshipped by the King Li.
He later joined the rebellion of King Li.
It holds an unparalleled position within the entire rebel force of the King Li.
And they obeyed only the orders of King Li.
"Your Excellency, your ability to instantly kill Duanmu Feng demonstrates that you have reached the Earth Martial Realm. At this age, reaching the Earth Martial Realm is truly a genius among geniuses. Unfortunately... you shouldn't have displayed such brilliance. This great man has no choice but to ruthlessly eliminate a genius from this world..."
Lord Tang unleashed a powerful punch.
The powerful Essence Power transformed into a roaring giant lion, which swept across the sky like lightning and slammed into Chen Ning's position.
This was clearly a high-grade Earth-rank martial art.
Moreover, Lord Tang has already reached a level of consummate understanding.
It started by pushing it to its full potential.
Show no mercy.
Chen Ning didn't move at all, but his Essence Power flared slightly, revealing the aura of the Seventh Level of the Earth Martial Realm.
He unleashed a palm strike.
Very casual.
The Essence Power in his palm surged, transforming into a giant wave of flames that swept out in an instant.
The giant lion that Lord Tang had summoned was burned to ashes.
Disappear completely.
Lord Tang's expression changed drastically.
He knew from just one glance that he couldn't hold back today.
The opponent's talent is beyond terrifying.
That's absolutely outrageous!
In the instant the vital energy surged, the aura of the Seventh Level of the Earth Martial Realm was revealed.
It really startled him.
They had initially thought the other party was merely a genius who had just advanced to the Earth Martial Realm.
Who would have thought he was a freak at the Seventh Level of the Earth Martial Realm!
To have such cultivation at such a young age.
He was the only one of his kind in his life.
Even more terrifying is that the incredibly fierce and powerful Heaven-Rank palm technique is equally astonishing.
"His strength is somewhat unexpected; I'm almost reluctant to strike..."
A smile flickered across Lord Tang's face as he continued, "But the feud has already been formed. At this point, no matter how talented you are, there's no room for negotiation..."
"Your martial arts level is very high, but you must know that in this world, personal cultivation is the only true path!"
With a loud shout, Lord Tang leaped into the air, unleashing a torrent of powerful True Essence Power.
Countless fist shadows burst forth.
The Lawless True Scripture circulated widely within Chen Ning, unleashing a domineering burst of True Essence Power.
In an instant.
This entire world was filled with a chilling, murderous atmosphere.
Then, a barrage of fist shadows came crashing down, colliding with the True Essence Power that Chen Ning unleashed.
The volatile Essence Power fluctuations suddenly went berserk.
The soldiers brought by Lord Tang, who were not far away, were also caught in the crossfire.
Countless casualties.
The middle-aged guard kept his distance, not daring to approach.
Su Ling'er then went to the two women from the Immortal Music Palace and cast a Protective Talisman on each of them.
Only then can it withstand the rampaging energy around it.
The girl holding the guqin silently channeled the power of music to heal her injuries, but she couldn't help but glance at the battlefield not far away.
That young man remained calm and composed throughout.
Not only is she incredibly good-looking.
Moreover, their strength is so great that they can contend with experts at the Ninth Level of the Earth Martial Realm.
He's like a legendary hero straight out of a folk tale.
"So... there really are men like that in the world."
The girl holding the guqin couldn't help but feel a flutter in her heart.
Sister Shang, standing to the side, chuckled and teased, "What? Feeling a stirring of romantic feelings? We're not even sure if we'll survive... Hurry up and heal your injuries."
"Sister Shang, don't talk nonsense!"
The girl holding the guqin was recognized by her senior sister, and she blushed, speaking out in embarrassment and annoyance, before speeding up her recovery.
But what the girl was thinking was that only by recovering from her injuries quickly could she possibly help him...
At this moment.
On the battlefield.
Lord Tang's eyes narrowed, and a mental attack silently struck.
This is one of his usual tricks.
It's also an invincible skill.
This was achieved through a sneak attack using Divine Power martial arts technique.
He has defeated many strong opponents of the same level.
It was a bit despicable, though.
But he'll stop at nothing to win.
Not to mention.
That young man across from us must die today!
"Oh ho... what a coincidence!"
Despite feeling the mental attack from Lord Tang, Chen Ning smiled.
"Since you've walked right into my line of fire, don't blame me..."
Chen Ning's mind raced.
The next moment.
Heavenly Extremity Sonic Wave Technique Release.
The immense Divine Power transformed into a piercing sonic attack and immediately retaliated.
Chen Ning hadn't realized anything before using sonic techniques.
It wasn't until three generations of sect leaders passed on the Spirit Control Technique was mastered.
My Divine Power has increased significantly.
That's when I realized how powerful this move was!
They immediately and directly experienced the power of the Heavenly Extremity Sonic Wave Technique.
Lord Tang, who was feeling smug, suddenly had a drastic change in expression.
His entire face contorted in pain.
His consciousness was severely damaged!
For a moment, his mind went blank.
Even the long-distance circulation of True Essence Power could not be maintained.
And it is this gap.
He revealed too many flaws.
The unbridled True Essence Power slammed in.
"No!!!!"
A powerful burst of True Essence Power exploded within his body.
Lord Tang was covered in blood and was on the verge of death.
