Ling Tian Sword God

Chapter 1175: Chapter 1174: Coming to Kill

"Defeated you with just one move?"

Teng Shan was greatly surprised. He was well aware of his brother’s strength and knew that even he himself could not easily defeat him. Yet, the mysterious swordsman was able to take him down with a single strike?

This mysterious swordsman’s power must truly have reached an extremely formidable level.

"Who exactly is this mysterious swordsman? Could he be a powerhouse from Jingzhou Prefecture?"

Teng Shan furrowed his brow. Currently, Qing Mountain Sword Sect had no strong backing, except for Jingzhou Prefecture. He couldn’t think of any other force that would send such a high-level warrior to rescue Qing Mountain Sword Sect at this time.

"He’s not from Jingzhou Prefecture."

At this moment, an elderly voice suddenly came through. Teng Shan looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the speaker was an old man in a black robe. The old man’s aura was rather chilling and concealed, yet the energy emanating from him was clearly at the Saint level.

"The situation over in Jingzhou Prefecture has already been handled by our Tang Sect, and they will no longer interfere in this matter."

The old man in the black robe had a gleam of cold light in his eyes, "Whoever it is, once I meet him, it will all become clear."

Upon hearing this, Teng Shan was suddenly delighted, nodded, and said, "With the Third Elder taking action, this matter will surely be foolproof."

The person in front of him was the Third Elder of Tang Sect, whose strength had reached the peak of the first realm of a Saint. No matter how strong that mysterious swordsman was, he could not possibly be a match for Tang Sect’s Third Elder.

"Sect Leader, something terrible has happened. Someone has forcefully broken into the sect!"

Just then, a disciple from Great Eagle Gate rushed in from outside the hall, looking flustered as he spoke.

"Who is so bold?"

Teng Shan’s expression changed, and he said in a deep voice.

"I don’t know. There are only two of them. One wears a mask, and the other seems to be from Qing Mountain Sword Sect," the Great Eagle Gate disciple reported.

"Just two people dare to break into Great Eagle Gate, how arrogant. Let’s go and see who these lads are!"

Teng Shan sneered coldly, then leaped out of the hall, followed immediately by Tang Sect’s Third Elder and the others.

Great Eagle Gate square.

Over a hundred experts from Great Eagle Gate surrounded Ling Chen and Shen Qianlang, layer upon layer, impenetrable. However, from within the crowd, there were continuous cries of agony, as experts from Great Eagle Gate were repeatedly shot out, utterly unable to stop Ling Chen and Shen Qianlang.

"Stop!"

Seeing this chaotic scene, Teng Shan’s face also turned grim, and he suddenly transmitted his True Qi, shouting loudly into the square.

The batch of Great Eagle Gate disciples, upon hearing this shout, retreated to the sides, maintaining a safe distance from Ling Chen and Shen Qianlang.

"Father, it’s him!"

Teng Sha pointed at Ling Chen, with a hint of resentment in his eyes, "If it weren’t for him, we would have succeeded already, and it was this guy who injured me!"

Upon hearing this, Teng Shan’s gaze also fell upon Ling Chen, and he did not feel any aura of a Saint from Ling Chen, which immediately put him at ease.

Ling Chen’s cultivation had not reached the Saint level, and was not even a Half-Saint.

"Your Excellency, barging into Great Eagle Gate like this is far too presumptuous!"

Teng Shan’s True Qi began to circulate within him, and immediately with a step, he charged towards Ling Chen, raising his hand into a claw, ferociously grabbing at Ling Chen!

His True Qi intensity was obviously much stronger than that of the stern middle-aged man. As he unleashed his claw, a gigantic golden eagle spanning dozens of meters flew across the sky, rushing toward Ling Chen.

The Great Eagle Gate disciples all dodged aside, creating a path, and the golden eagle swiftly appeared in front of Ling Chen through the gap in their formation!

However, Ling Chen himself showed no panic. He simply raised his sword, shook his arm, and the Thunder Sound Sword slashed abruptly downward.

Crash!

The crowd saw only a blade of sword light slice through the void, and the golden eagle split straight down the middle, cut into halves by the sword light.

"What?"

Teng Shan’s pupils suddenly contracted. Although he hadn’t used his full strength in that move, he had exerted about eighty percent of it. He hadn’t expected it to be so easily broken by Ling Chen!

"You are the Sect Leader of Great Eagle Gate, Teng Shan?"

Ling Chen’s gaze locked onto Teng Shan. Without wasting words, his body flickered forward, and the Thunder Sound Sword in his hand turned into a streak of lightning, piercing toward Teng Shan’s vital point fiercely!

"Courting death!"

Teng Shan, as a Senior Half-Saint, feared none but Saints. Although Ling Chen seemed uncanny, he was far from a Saint’s cultivation level. Why should he fear him?

Boom!

True Qi within him burst forth violently, and along with the Martial Soul within Teng Shan, transformed into a big golden True Qi shield in front of him, blocking the area ahead.

Zizz!

Ling Chen’s sword light only penetrated the shield slightly before it could proceed no further, stopped in its tracks.

"Blocked it!"

Teng Shan’s face showed a hint of delight.

However, just as this expression of joy emerged, the sword light in Ling Chen’s hand suddenly became intense, and the next moment, with a "pffft" sound, a hole was pierced through Teng Shan’s golden shield, dense cracks instantaneously spread across the shield surface like a spider’s web.

Bang!

Under Teng Shan’s shocked gaze, the shield exploded into fragments, while Ling Chen’s sword tip, amid the shower of fragments, thrust through fiercely, aiming straight for Teng Shan’s throat!

"Not good!"

Teng Shan hurriedly retreated, yet soon realized no matter how he backed away, he couldn’t dodge Ling Chen’s sword!

At this time, a slightly aged hand suddenly flashed like lightning in front of his throat, and before his alarmed eyes, exploded with a vast Palm Power, forcefully halting the sword light!

The one who intervened, clothed in a black robe, was none other than Tang Sect’s Third Elder!

The Third Elder of Tang Sect released an overwhelming aura from his body, containing a terrifying pressure that only a Saint possessed. From his palm, endless True Qi surged outwards, weakening and dissipating Ling Chen’s sword qi.

"This man is actually a Saint!"

Shen Qianlang’s face quivered. The black-robed elder before him turned out to be a genuine Saint!

Indeed, there was a Tang Sect Saint hiding among Great Eagle Gate?

Boom!

The sound of the exploding air energy echoed, as Ling Chen and Tang Sect’s Third Elder both retreated simultaneously, separating their forms.

"Who are you?"

After retreating a dozen steps, Tang Sect’s Third Elder finally steadied himself, eyeing Ling Chen with some surprise, then frowned deeply, "I advise Your Excellency not to interfere with our Tang Sect affairs, don’t bring unnecessary trouble upon yourself."

Ling Chen’s strength exceeded his expectations; although Ling Chen did not possess Saint-level cultivation, he had Saint-level prowess. Someone like this could definitely not be a nobody, and in the Nine Provinces Land, was likely a person of significant background.
