Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chen Cangxiong looked at Ling Xiao dismissively, not even interested in making a move.

Ling Xiao understood very well that Chen Cangxiong was unaware that he possessed the Tyrant Sky Martial Spirit—Dragon Power, Divine Phoenix Power, and White Tiger Power.

Additionally, with the Imperial Heaven Earth Power combined, he didn’t even need the Bloody Rat Demon to unleash the combat strength of the First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm - Eleventh Layer Pinnacle Cultivation Level.

If it weren’t for the fact that he had just broken through when facing the Purple Thunder General earlier and his cultivation was still unstable, he wouldn’t have used a move like the Bloody Rat Demon’s technique, where you harm yourself as much as your enemy.

Chen Cangxiong underestimated him and even wanted to capture him alive, which naturally meant he wouldn’t go all out.

For him, this was a huge advantage.

Half an hour, he had to stall.

”Three minutes, count the time!”

Chen Cangxiong smiled faintly. It wasn’t out of arrogance, but because he was indeed too powerful, especially after achieving a breakthrough that transformed his cultivation. How could he regard Ling Xiao?

Consider a strong man skilled in martial arts: would he regard a newborn infant as anything?

To Chen Cangxiong, the situation was precisely like this now.

He was the strong man, while Ling Xiao was nothing more than a newborn infant in front of him.

”Kill!”

Ling Xiao didn’t care how much Chen Cangxiong belittled or underestimated him. His goal was simple: to delay time.

Delaying thirty minutes would be his victory.

He wasn’t arrogant enough to think he could kill the underprepared Chen Cangxiong.

Being too greedy could lead to his own death.

Ling Xiao charged forward, wielding two Eight Immortals Swords, a dark sword light piercing through the void.

The speed was incredibly fast!

The angle was also very tricky.

Like a Sword Demon, he performed the world’s most perfect sword technique.

Transcendental Realm—Shadow Sword Demon!

Against Chen Cangxiong, Ling Xiao immediately used an Immortal Grade One Heavenly Martial Skill.

”How dare a mere speck of light vie with the sun and moon? Let me show you what true power is,”

Chen Cangxiong did not even glance at Ling Xiao, casually swinging a sword.

A stream of Sword Qi cut through the air.

This was a very ordinary Sword Qi, not even accompanied by a martial skill.

Clearly, to Chen Cangxiong, defeating Ling Xiao didn’t require martial skills at all.

If he used martial skills, he might end up killing Ling Xiao unintentionally.

Now, he was restraining his attack power to avoid failing to capture Ling Xiao alive.

The sword light shone brilliantly, instantly shattering Ling Xiao’s Shadow Sword Demon, then struck Ling Xiao’s body.

Fortunately, Ling Xiao managed to block with the Soul Thunder Light Shield to avoid serious injury.

Yet, he was still sent flying by this stream of Sword Qi.

Ling Xiao barely stabbed the ground with both swords, managing to stop after being flung over a hundred meters away.

This attack made him realize the true strength of Chen Cangxiong.

Although he still couldn’t pinpoint it precisely, the current Chen Cangxiong was definitely not a martial artist of the First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm - Eleventh Layer Hell Cultivation.

But rather the First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm Twelfth Layer Hell!

There was no mistake.

Otherwise, if his all-out attack only fell short of not using the Bloody Rat Demon, Tyrant Universe, and the Soul of the Butterfly Girl, how could he be knocked away so easily?

Of course, this judgment wasn’t far from his previous speculations.

”First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm Twelfth Layer Hell Cultivation, Chen Cangxiong, you’re indeed strong, but your capability is just so-so.

Just scratching an itch?”

Ling Xiao stood there, looking disdainfully at Chen Cangxiong.

Although the attack was indeed formidable, requiring him to use the Soul Thunder Light Shield to defuse, it didn’t hurt him.

This indicated that, having recently broken through, Chen Cangxiong was still not fully mastering the power of the Twelfth Layer Hell.

”Oh really? Then try another of these attacks!”

Suddenly, the longsword in Chen Cangxiong’s hand stabbed tens of times in the void at a speed difficult for the naked eye to discern.

All were ordinary attacks.

Tens of strands of Sword Qi rained down on Ling Xiao.

Each strand of Sword Qi posed a great threat to Ling Xiao, but none targeted his vitals.

Clearly, Chen Cangxiong was exercising restraint.

These ordinary Sword Qi brought Ling Xiao immense trouble.

He had to continuously use the Soul Thunder Light Shield and the Jade Technique of the Jade Rabbit Beast Soul to block.

He couldn’t retaliate at all.

Completely suppressed by Chen Cangxiong.

Of course, that was how it looked on the surface.

Chen Cangxiong probably hadn’t realized that despite Ling Xiao appearing embarrassed after such a long assault, he wasn’t injured at all.

It only looked laughably weak on the surface.

”Is this all you’ve got? Are you joking? With this kind of strength, you could kill the Purple Thunder General? Kill Gutianba?

You’re toying with me?”

Chen Cangxiong wasn’t a fool. After all this time attacking, Ling Xiao hadn’t displayed the formidable combat power he showed outside of Thunder City.

That could only mean one thing: this kid was intentionally pretending.

Pretending had a purpose. But for what?

Chen Cangxiong suddenly regained his composure.

”Clever boy, almost got deceived by your acting. You’re deliberately stalling for time, aren’t you?”

Chen Cangxiong suddenly understood.

Ling Xiao never intended to engage in a real fight with him.

Upon realizing his objective, all of Ling Xiao’s attacks were just to stall for time.

He checked the time; unknowingly, during his furious attacks, ten minutes had passed.

”Damn it, you really tricked me,”

Chen Cangxiong was very annoyed.

Ever since he debuted, it was always him deceiving others, tricking others; where had anyone ever tricked him?

Now he truly wanted to kill Ling Xiao.

But he was, after all, a formidable figure, forcibly restraining his homicidal intent.

”Don’t worry, Ling Xiao, I won’t kill you. I’ll capture you and your bird alive.

Then roast it over a fire right in front of you to share with my subordinates!”

Chen Cangxiong was using provocation, knowing well the close relationship between Ling Xiao and that little golden bird.

But this move was clearly misguided.

Xiao Jin was no ordinary bird but a Golden Crow—how could it fear being roasted?

”Ha, roast it and share some with me. I would love to see how you manage to cook a Golden Crow to a crisp on the outside and tender on the inside.

Idiot!”

Ling Xiao, of course, didn’t want Chen Cangxiong to regain his composure.

An angry Chen Cangxiong is much harder to deal with than a rational one.

”Your trickery is useless against me!

Rest assured, from now on, I’ll unleash more of my power to ensure one move cripples you!

That way, you won’t die but can still serve as our research subject.”

Chen Cangxiong released a strong murderous intent.

This murderous intent was forced out by Ling Xiao.

He would have to take things a bit more seriously.

Otherwise, if thirty minutes really passed and experts from Demon Dragon City arrived, he’d regret it immensely.

”Let’s say it again, the Chen Royal Family are nothing but a bunch of shameless villains.

Who was it just now that said they’d resolve me in three minutes?

Now it’s been ten minutes, and you still have the face to continue?”

Ling Xiao mocked Chen Cangxiong while already preparing his defenses.
