Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 593: Chapter 593 Sealing the Heavenly Lord_1

After enduring so many trials, Ling Xiao finally comprehended the second technique of the ”Nine Veins Qi Sword.”

If the first technique was a wide-ranging attack, then this second one was a one-on-one assault of great determination.

The air sword, enshrouded in black dragon shadows, instantly pierced through the void and struck the advancing Ancient Ship King.

Boom!

A massive roar erupted.

The giant sword actually penetrated the Ancient Ship King’s defenses, impaling his body.

Following that, black flames spread, emitting a terrifying high temperature.

In just an instant, the mighty Ancient Ship King was reduced to nothing but a pair of charred ashes and a lingering soul.

”Seal!”

Ling Xiao certainly wasn’t about to let the Ancient Ship King escape and immediately sealed it within a blank Seal Card.

”Heavenly Person Realm first layer, First Line Heaven Realm boundary, number of uses, once.”

Only once?

Ling Xiao couldn’t help feeling a bit disappointed.

It seemed that within each super realm, only the top-tier monsters could be used three times, like the Half-step Celestial in the Transcendent Realm and the Half-step Realm King in the Heavenly Person Realm.

But once was also good, after all, it was a Heavenly Person Realm expert, and before Ling Xiao advanced to the Heavenly Person Realm, it could completely serve as the strongest battle force.

”The Ancient Dragon Soul is truly extraordinary!”

Ling Xiao couldn’t help but praise, and then he withdrew his attack.

The black flames that spread after killing the Ancient Ship King were constantly devouring the lives of those Black Spirits.

Among them were not a few Half-step Celestials.

Anyway, Ling Xiao now needed to take advantage of the Justice Pendant’s remaining effective time to quickly resolve the situation on site, otherwise once the effect wore off, even facing a Half-step Celestial would probably be quite troublesome for him.

”It’s a pity the ’Twelve Golden Lotus Art’ doesn’t seem to merge with the Hellfire True Essence, once this True Essence is consumed, it can’t be replenished. It looks like I have to continue.”

In this attack, Ling Xiao had not only witnessed the terror of the Ancient Dragon Soul but also realized his current problems.

But there was no rush to solve this issue; first, he had to take care of Tantai Lingzi, that venomous woman.

Suddenly, Ling Xiao looked up at Tantai Lingzi.

He had already harbored the intention to kill, and he also had the means to truly annihilate Tantai Lingzi right there.

However, when he looked up, he found that the woman’s body had already begun to burn up in the black flames.

She suicided?

Ling Xiao paused for a moment.

This woman was truly cunning, knowing that Ling Xiao wouldn’t let her go, she preferred to be eliminated, which in turn could save her life.

”Hmph, what’s the use of escaping the Moon Blossom Pagoda? Once I’m out, I’ll still take your life!”

Ling Xiao snorted coldly, no longer paying attention to her, instead going back to check on Dai Yuling’s condition.

...

Above the Inner Gate Square of the Moon Blossom Pagoda.

Whoosh!

Another figure was thrown out, a woman.

It was Tantai Lingzi.

Although her condition had been restored to its peak, her complexion was not very good-looking, as if she had received a fright.

”Tantai Lingzi!”

”Senior Sister Tantai!”

”The last hope of light for the Moon Glorious Sect!”

When Tantai Lingzi came out, she was a bit stunned.

Because she felt like a hero, being greeted by everyone as if stars surrounded the moon.

Those high-ranking members who usually didn’t show her any favor were now casting strong goodwill towards her.

”Tantai, I intend to take you as my disciple. Are you willing to accept?”

The Sect Leader Chang Yueying suddenly asked.

”Sect Leader, didn’t you say that you weren’t taking on any disciples? The last time Ling Xiao wanted to acknowledge you as his master, you were unwilling. Why have you changed your mind and decided to take on a disciple now?”

Guanghan Celestial Venerate asked in astonishment.

A flash of embarrassment crossed Chang Yueying’s face, and she replied with a smile, ”You all understand why I don’t take disciples. I’ve decided not to take male disciples; however, female disciples are still acceptable.”

”Hmph, you simply look down upon Ling Xiao’s talent.”

Yuan Venerate snorted coldly and conveyed his thoughts to Yang Dan Lin secretly.

Nobody dared to say it out loud, but this was probably the real reason, with all other reasons being secondary.

As the Sect Leader of Moon Hua Sect, why wouldn’t Chang Yueying want to take disciples?

However, as the Sect Leader, if she were to take a disciple, she would want the most outstanding one.

Tantai Lingzi’s talent was remarkable, and her performance in the Pagoda Climbing Ceremony was excellent. Missing out on her would lead to regret.

Although many others harbored the thought of taking Tantai Lingzi as a disciple, they were too late—Chang Yueying had beaten them to it.

”This disciple is willing!”

For Tantai Lingzi, there were naturally many benefits to becoming a disciple.

Most importantly, she knew that Ling Xiao would not let her off, but as long as she became the disciple of Sect Leader Chang Yueying, Ling Xiao would hesitate to harm her, fearing the consequences.

Thus, the helping hand extended by Chang Yueying was a great relief to her, a true blessing in a time of need.

Although Ling Xiao’s cultivation level appeared to be inferior to hers, and his slaying of the Ancient Ship King must have been aided by some treasure, she was inexplicably filled with fear towards Ling Xiao.

That man was incredibly formidable, almost inhuman. Moreover, his cultivation speed was terrifyingly fast—surpassing her might just be a matter of time.

”Hahaha, good! Very good! Congratulations to you, Sect Leader, for taking such an excellent disciple. Persisting for eleven days in the Pagoda Climbing Ceremony, she likely gained rewards not inferior to what you acquired in your time, truly splendid.”

Supreme Head Teacher Chang Yueli was filled with envy and bitterness.

Her words were full of both praise for Tantai Lingzi and a strong sense of jealousy.

She, too, had wanted to take Tantai Lingzi as her disciple.

After all, her own highly anticipated disciple, Bai Feifei, had been eliminated too early.

”Reporting to the Sect Master, the final results for Tantai Lingzi have been released.”

At that moment, a golden light shot forth from the Moon Blossom Pagoda.

Chang Yueying reached out her hand, and the golden light immediately landed in her palm.

”The final results—she entered the fourth level! Hehe, not bad at all.”

Chang Yueying was ecstatic. ”She has earned Moonlight Points, two thousand! That’s two hundred more than Leng Hao, good, very good! Looking at your cultivation level, it seems you’ve also made a breakthrough, haven’t you?”

”I dare not conceal it from my master; I was at the peak of the Transcendent Realm Eighth Layer when I entered, and I am now in the late stages of the Transcendent Realm Ninth Layer!”

What!

As soon as Tantai Lingzi finished speaking, the entire audience was shocked.

To achieve such a major breakthrough consecutively at the pinnacle of the Transcendent Realm Eighth Layer was just too impressive.

”Good, very good. What treasures did you obtain?”

The more Chang Yueying heard, the more delighted she was, while the other high-ranking members of the sect were filled with regrets.

Tantai Lingzi’s results were so outstanding—if only they had known earlier, they would have taken her on as a disciple before the Sect Leader had the chance. Now there was no opportunity left for them.

However, the results Tantai Lingzi disclosed next made them even more regretful and envious.

Immortal-grade Treasures: Three!

Gold-top Level Martial Arts: Four sets!

Precious Treasure Artifacts: Ten!

Gold-superior Level Martial Arts: Nine sets!

Apart from these, what shocked everyone even more was that Tantai Lingzi had also obtained a Divine Artifact!

Although she had earned only slightly more Moonlight Points than Leng Hao, the treasures she received far surpassed them all.
