Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 305: Chapter 305 Terrifying Saber Technique_1

Even though he was a master of the Heavenly Man Realm, he didn’t possess the power to see through everything.

Thus, including the Master of Desperate Tower, no one had any clue about Ling Xiao’s situation.

Many even believed Ling Xiao had been killed.

”Ling Xiao~~”

Dai Yuling let out a mournful cry and fainted straight into Lan Yu’er’s arms.

Lan Yu’er’s face was filled with sorrow.

She handed Dai Yuling over to Yang Dan Lin to take care of, then slowly walked toward Desperate Tower.

Today, even if it meant offending the Master of Desperate Tower, she was determined to save Ling Xiao.

She had great faith in Ling Xiao, but the moment the booming sound echoed, Ling Xiao’s presence suddenly vanished completely.

This left her utterly panicked, losing the cool-headedness she usually had, and she became violently angry.

”Lan girl, you’re crazy, Ling Xiao is fine.”

Yang Dan Lin stopped Lan Yu’er.

In fact, he was unaware of the situation over there; this was something Yuan Venerate had told him.

The dust and smoke gradually dissipated.

Yet no one knew where Ling Xiao’s figure was.

Atop Desperate Tower, there was not the slightest trace of Ling Xiao’s presence either.

Gongyang Nu revealed a smile of schadenfreude: ”Hahaha, died just like that? That’s too useless.”

”No!”

Jin Ming suddenly stood up, his pupils contracting sharply.

Ling Xiao’s figure gradually became visible, while Yang Cheng fell to the ground with wide, round eyes; his head had already parted from his body.

”How did he do that?”

Gongyang Nu took in a sharp breath. He hadn’t seen how Ling Xiao killed Yang Cheng at all.

”The moment Yang Cheng’s attack landed, his presence suddenly disappeared. It must be the effect of his Martial Soul. Then he counterattacked, killing Yang Cheng with one move. It’s that simple.”

Jin Ming spoke.

He hadn’t seen the entire process either, but from the scene’s condition, that seemed to be the case.

”Impossible, Yang Cheng became much stronger than before. Ling Xiao could kill him with one move?”

Gongyang Nu couldn’t believe this deduction.

”Yang Cheng had improved, but so had Ling Xiao.”

Jin Ming said this, but in reality, he also didn’t know what had transpired atop Desperate Tower.

No one knew.

Ling Xiao had actually used one percent of a Half-step Grandmaster’s ability in the instant he killed Yang Cheng. If it was just for an instant, plus the chaos of the scene and with many Half-step Grandmasters present, it wouldn’t be noticed by anyone.

There had been no need for that, but wanting to resolve the issue quickly, Ling Xiao couldn’t be bothered to use a highly draining technique.

The move he used to kill Yang Cheng could only be considered a regular attack, a mere hand chop without even using Martial Skills.

”First round of the life-and-death challenge, the winner—Ling Xiao!”

The Master of Desperate Tower said indifferently, and with a wave of his hand, Yang Cheng’s body was flung out: ”Next up, the second round, Ling Xiao challenges Gongyang Nu.”

”Senior, could we make a change?”

Ling Xiao said to the Master of Desperate Tower.

”What would you like to change? If you’re thinking of changing the date, it’s too late now.”

The Master of Desperate Tower said coldly.

”Senior, what I mean is, could I possibly challenge two people at once? One at a time is too much hassle.”

Ling Xiao said with a slight smile.

What!

Had Ling Xiao truly gone mad? Challenging one at a time was dangerous enough, and now he wished to challenge two at once? Was this not sheer suicide?

Many people felt that Ling Xiao, after one victory, was a little too dizzy with success.

However, both Gongyang Nu and Tuoba Shan exchanged glances, each seeing the pleasure in the other’s eyes.

To tell the truth, after witnessing Ling Xiao’s strength in killing Yang Cheng with a single move, neither of them was confident in winning a one-on-one fight, and they were already considering retreating.

But upon hearing Ling Xiao’s words, they instantly regained their confidence.

If one person wouldn’t suffice, the combined strength of two posed no problem at all.

With one specializing in close combat and the other in ranged attacks, they had coordinated countless times before. Now that Ling Xiao had challenged both of them at once, it felt like a feast had been handed to them.

”This can be changed, as long as you’re willing, and the other party agrees,”

”We agree!”

Gongyang Nu and Tuoba Shan, seemingly afraid that Ling Xiao would change his mind, quickly stood up and announced their agreement.

As long as they agreed, Ling Xiao would have no chance to regret it.

”Then let us now change it, Ling Xiao challenges the Outer Sect’s Sixth, Gongyang Nu, and the Outer Sect’s Fifth, Tuoba Shan!”

The Master of Desperate Tower seemed indifferent, happy to watch the excitement unfold.

Dai Yuling had just woken up and was once again frightened pale by Ling Xiao’s audacious decision.

Lan Yu’er could only offer a helpless, bitter smile.

Yang Dan Lin cursed repeatedly, ”This damn kid is really courting death.”

Only Yuan Venerate squinted his eyes, seemingly pondering something.

Sometimes, even he found his disciple inscrutable.

Gongyang Nu and Tuoba Shan both entered the range of Desperate Tower.

One was at the front, the other at the rear.

The silhouette behind Gongyang Nu was that of a long saber, which should be the relatively common weapon-type Martial Soul—the Long Saber Martial Soul.

The silhouette behind Tuoba Shan was that of a bow, another common weapon-type Martial Soul—the Bow and Arrow Martial Soul.

The former excelled at close-quarters combat.

The latter possessed a fearsome bow and arrow attack.

In choosing to fight these two at the same time, honestly, many people thought Ling Xiao was being reckless and suicidal.

Originally, many people were somewhat confident in him after seeing him kill Yang Cheng with one move.

Who would have known he’d pull such a stunt, instantly causing everyone to lose confidence in him.

However, on the flip side, Ling Xiao didn’t care how others saw him or whether they had confidence in him.

Having confidence in himself was enough.

”You will pay the price for your foolishness and arrogance,”

Gongyang Nu sneered coldly, waving his long saber and slashing directly at Ling Xiao.

In terms of attack power, Gongyang Nu was by no means inferior to Yang Cheng. With his saber cutting down, it seemed as if he would split the ruins in two, seamlessly coordinating his saber with his Martial Soul.

Fateful Saber Technique—One Saber, Two Halves!

As Gongyang Nu executed his saber technique, he had already closed in on Ling Xiao. His objective was quite clear, which was to entangle Ling Xiao and create an opportunity for Tuoba Shan.

Tuoba Shan had a killing move that required a considerable amount of time to accumulate True Essence. If it were a one-on-one situation, Tuoba Shan would hardly ever use this move.

But now, in a two-on-one situation, he saw his chance.

And this was his strongest move.

Clang—

Ling Xiao’s figure flashed, easily dodging Gongyang Nu’s attack. On Desperate Tower, a steel rod as thick as the mouth of a bowl was cleanly bifurcated.

Not only that, but the saber energy penetrated the ruins, leaving and enormous crack.

The onlookers were all a bit shocked—the Outer Sect’s Sixth truly had a terrifying attack power.

Ling Xiao certainly thought so too.

But he felt even more strongly that an attack which failed to hit someone was meaningless.

No matter how powerful your attack, what good was it?

”Do you know why I absolutely have to kill you guys?”

Ling Xiao suddenly asked.

His voice was loud, audible to everyone in Desperate Tower and the vicinity.

Because this was the effect he wanted.

The reason for this death challenge had to be known by everyone present, otherwise, it wouldn’t achieve the effect he desired.
