Chapter 1135: A Domineering Strike
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
"Despicable." Chu Qingyi cursed in anger. Her eyes were incomparably cold, and she wanted nothing more than to seal Qin Wentian's mouth right now, not allowing him to continue to speak.
"Despicable? You actually have the face to say this word to me? To achieve your purpose, you attempted to use your beauty to seduce me, and was subsequently defeated…" Qin Wentian coldly spoke. Wasn't he just as angry as well? Even if he had offended the holy maiden of the Snowdrift Sage Hall, what does this have to do with Jun Mengchen? His junior brother, Jun Mengchen, was actually abused to such a state. Qin Wentian had never seen Jun Mengchen in such a sorry state before.
"Shut up." Chu Qingyi's chest heaved, her face went deathly white.
"Release him." Qin Wentian spoke in a domineering tone. Since Chu Qingyi did such a despicable thing, was there still a need for him to be considerate about her reputation?
"RUMBLE!" Lei Ba stepped forth, the force of his steps causing the space to tremble. Thunder and lightning illuminated the sky. In the surroundings, purple bolts of electricity could be seen, like the anger of the thunder god, wanting to destroy everything.
"Even if Qingyi agrees to release him, I will not agree." Lei Ba stepped forth. Qin Wentian didn't even glance at him. His eyes were still fixed on Chu Qingyi as he spoke, "Then, you better ask for the opinion of the holy maiden. Chu Qingyi, I will give you three breaths worth of time. If you still have yet to release my junior brother by then, bear the consequences yourself."
"Qingyi, let me kill him for you." Lei Ba spoke. He stared at Chu Qingyi, seeking her opinion.
Chu Qingyi's countenance alternated between shades of green and white. Finally, she spoke, "Release him."
The eyes of everyone flashed with uncertainty and puzzlement as they stared at Chu Qingyi. What secret of Chu Qingyi did Qin Wentian know about? He actually managed to make Chu Qingyi show restraint and release the hostage.
One of the maidens from the Snowdrift Sage Hall released Jun Mengchen. Jun Mengchen dragged along his injured body and walked to the side of Qin Wentian. "Senior brother, I've embarrassed myself."
"What did they do to you in the external world?" When Qin Wentian saw that Jun Mengchen's body was covered in injuries, the cold intent radiating from him grew more and more terrifying.
"I was cultivating on an ancient mountain, they directly injured me after they found me. That Lei Ba threatened me, wanting me to hand over the secret art to establish a saint-grade immortal foundation, using the power of thunder to keep me under constant torture. I will definitely seek revenge for what they have done." Jun Mengchen's eyes flickered with a cold light.
"You naturally must." Qin Wentian's face was ice cold. He once again inclined his head and stared at Chu Qingyi. "If I catch any wind of my junior brother still being tormented by you guys in the external world, I guarantee that I will announce what really happened back then to everyone in the sacred academies by inscribing words on the sky connecting pillars."
"You…" Chu Qingyi's body trembled slightly. If Qin Wentian really did so, her reputation would be destroyed completely. Qin Wentian was truly ruthless. Right now, she wanted nothing more than to tear Qin Wentian into a million pieces, including his real body in the external world.
Qin Wentian then turned his gaze onto another figure. There was no need to speak much about Skymist Mu, he was acquainted with this person long before this, at the Evergreen Immortal Empire. This Lei Ba came here today and tortured Jun Mengchen simply because he wanted to pursue Chu Qingyi. He will definitely make Lei Ba pay a price for his actions.
Other than these people, they had already summoned the forces from their respective powers over here earlier. People from the Thundergod hall, the Snowdrift Sage Hall, and even those from the Skymist Immortal Empire.
"Qingyi, there's someone who offended you?" At this moment, there were even more people appearing here. All the heaven chosen here now were all extraordinary individuals. This person who spoke earlier had outstanding looks and was clad in robes of brilliant gold. Just one look was sufficient to tell that he wasn't an ordinary cultivator that had no background nor status.
Chu Qingyi was extremely beautiful and furthermore, she was also the holy maiden of the Snowdrift Sage Hall, granting her a lofty status. There were many outstanding individuals that had feelings for her. In fact, even for those people who were only acquainted with her after they joined the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy, there were some among them who had also started to pursue her. After all, it has already been years since they all passed the first test.
Qin Wentian stared at the staggering number of experts who came. Seems like the strength of his Battle Saint Tribe was insufficient with their limited numbers. Unless he could gather all the members from the Battle Saint Tribe, he had no way to fight against the combined forces of these people. This was how great the ability of a beautiful female is. That, in addition to her austere status, there would naturally be many people who wanted to get into her good books and came here to support her.
"Senior brother, kill me first and send me out of this place." Jun Mengchen spoke. Qin Wentian glanced at him. Being killed so as to exit this place, was a truly unpleasant experience.
"The humiliation today is already equivalent to me dying once. How could I not engrave this deep in my heart?" Jun Mengchen spoke.
"Okay, I will send you out. If they still try to implicate you in this. I guarantee I will use all methods to destroy that woman." Qin Wentian spoke. After that, he lifted his palm and blasted out with full force, sending Jun Mengchen out of the Sky Connecting Realm. The decisiveness of his move caused the hearts of everyone to tremble. Chu Qingyi's countenance flashed. Qin Wentian's words made her feel trepidation in her heart. According to Qin Wentian's words, if she continued to act against Jun Mengchen, he would do anything to ensure that she would be destroyed.
"I captured him in the first place simply because I wanted to deal with you. There's no matter if I release him." Lei Ba spoke with cold arrogance. He stepped forward as the might of thunder crackled violently amidst the dark clouds that appeared in the sky above Qin Wentian. It felt as though the dark clouds would send a bolt down anytime, completely destroying Qin Wentian.
"Before I exit the realm, I have to kill that woman at the very least." Qin Wentian spoke. The experts from the Battle Saint Tribe understood his intentions. They stood in his surroundings and released their immortal foundations together, causing their auras to gush forth as images of towering divine apes appeared behind them, peering down at their opponents with disdain. They seemed to contain boundless strength, a violent battle might swept across this entire space, causing the hearts of the spectators to tremble.
Only to see that one of them raised his hand and he actually grabbed out and seized the bolt of thunder from the air successfully. Boundless waves of destructive thunderous might came crashing down, yet all the thunder might was dissipated when the giant palm of one of the divine apes blocked it. This was a truly shocking scene.
"Son of the Thundergod? Do you really think you are very strong? Nothing but a frog in a well, grossly overestimating your own abilities. Earlier, Chu Qingyi was like this as well. She who is at the fifth-level, was defeated by me. The holy maiden of the Snowdrift Sage Hall is truly nothing in my eyes." Qin Wentian spoke coldly. Lei Ba stepped out as a thunder dragon appeared, coiling around the space. Ten thousand bolts of punishing thunder blasted out towards the experts from the Battle Saint Tribe.
An expert from the Battle Saint Tribe at the seventh level stepped out. His divine ape howled, seemingly unexcelled in the world due to the vast amounts of battle might radiating from it. There were countless runes that covered the ape's palm as it slammed out with with enough strength to cause the sky and earth to collapse, aiming for the thunder dragon. Both attacks collided together causing the destructive power of thunder to seep into the body of the divine ape, destroying it from within. Yet, the divine ape seemed incomparably terrifying with an unmatchable physique akin to an indestructible body, shrugging off the electricity effortlessly.
"Take him down." Chu Qingyi coldly spoke. She no longer wanted Qin Wentian's life, she had to capture him alive. Killing Qin Wentian no longer held any meaning.
Several experts moved towards Qin Wentian, yet they only saw Qin Wentian actually advancing to meet them. Around him, four powerful experts of the Battle Saint Tribe stood at the ready, emanating a tyrannical aura. The cultivation bases of these four weren't weak. In the central core region of the Sky Connecting Realm, those with weaker cultivation bases would have been killed on sight. The weakest among the four of them, had a cultivation base at the sixth-level of immortal foundation.
Other than the expert fighting against Lei Ba, the other four from the Battle Saint Tribe protected Qin Wentian as they advanced forward together. They moved towards Chu Qingyi, and were intent on completing Qin Wentian's earlier command. Before he exited this realm, he wanted to kill Chu Qingyi.
Skymist Mu stepped out. That defeat in the past has always been engraved in his heart. This time around, he definitely had to have a good round of battle against Qin Wentian and his subordinates.
A terrifying divine elephant appeared. Skymist Mu waved his hands as small particles blasted out. These small particles abruptly transformed into huge elephants, creating a stampede that rushed at Qin Wentian.
Skymist Mu's target was none other than the eighth-level immortal-foundation expert from the Battle Saint Tribe. This eighth-level expert was the strongest among the five, it made sense to remove him. The eighth-level expert then roared and manifested countless divine apes that rushed the divine elephants, shattering them into pieces with might that could tear the sky asunder.
The other experts all gradually advanced forward, all of them launching attacks at Qin Wentian. Despite so, the defensive formations used by the experts from the Battle Saint Tribe were seamless and airtight that neither the wind nor rain could penetrate them. Numerous divine apes rushed forward, opening up a pathway. Despite so many enemies here, they actually chose to advance instead of retreating, killing their way into their enemy's territory.
"Stop them!" Lei Ba roared. Bolts of thunder rained down, as lightning snakes and dragons danced in the sky, covering this entire space.
"You best worry for yourself." The expert from the Battle Saint Tribe coldly shouted. In the air, a terrifying gigantic divine ape with a crown on its head appeared before that expert, standing steadily despite the intense pressure. Its eyes were like an enraged king kong, it slammed out with a transcendent gargantuan palm that could destroy anything. If one observed it carefully, this attack from the expert of the Battle Saint Tribe was indeed extremely similar to God's Hand, both had the same miraculous augmentation effect.
God's Hand was something the first-generation Saint Lord came up with after an intensive study of the Battle Saint Art. The two of secret arts naturally would have plenty of similar points.
Staring at this terrifying attack, Lei Ba didn't have the time to bother about what was happening over at Qin Wentian's side. He put in all his strength to defend, his entire body was imbued with the might of thunder, glowing brilliantly, able to destroy anything with ease.
Not only the expert fighting against Lei Ba was emanating a terrifyingly tyrannical might, the other four experts around Qin Wentian were doing the same as well. Instantly, their bodies were like walls of divine iron, impenetrable by any force. They continued pushing forward, actually gaining ground despite the multitude of attacks blasting into them. Such strength and toughness caused the hearts of all the spectators to shudder.
"They are all so strong, who are these people? Many of the spectators marveled silently when they saw the combat prowess of the experts from the Battle Saint Tribe. They wondered which power these people belonged to. All of them seemed to be rarely-seen supreme geniuses.
Qin Wentian stood in the center, fully protected by them. His body glowed with light and terrifying might as his body of truth manifested behind him, resembling a body akin to that of divinity.
"Open up a path." One of the experts from the Battle Saint Tribe shouted in rage. The entire patch of space before them trembled violently as a fearsome combination attack blasted out from their combined forces, and truly opened up a pathway temporarily. On the other side, the numerous opponents frenziedly defended against the attack, yet they were all steamrolled by the immense power. After the path of blood was opened up, Chu Qingyi could be seen standing at the end of this path.
"BOOM!" Qin Wentian stepped out, closing the distance between them in an instant, arriving before Chu Qingyi. At this moment, Chu Qingyi couldn't even react and was lost in a daze. Under this circumstance where there were so many experts on her side, Qin Wentian actually succeeded in slaughtering out a path that led him to her?
"Chu Qingyi, you will definitely pay a price for your actions." Qin Wentian's voice rang out, drifting into Chu Qingyi's ears. Qin Wentian activated God's Hand and slammed down with his palm, containing the strongest destructive might he could muster, instantly swallowing Chu Qingyi whole. Under the stunned gazes of the crowd, Qin Wentian crushed the holy maiden of the Snowdrift Sage Hall effortlessly with one domineering strike!
