Chapter 503: Convergent of the Strong
Translator: _Tat_ Editor: Fish_Creek
The Imperishable Temple was quaking unstoppably. Half of the space here exuded dizzying amount of golden light that soon dissolved.
Ling Xian's expression was serious as he manipulated the golden Dan inside of him to dial up his condition to the peak. He was preparing himself to face the sudden attacks that will occur in just moments.
He was like a delicious and tempting cake right now. Anyone would be having bad thoughts and wanting a piece of him. He wasn't scared of anyone other than the notable talents like the rock man.
On top of that, there were three of them in total. As powerful as he was, he didn't dare to be reckless.
"It seems like I acted too aggressively."
Sighing, Ling Xian realized that he shouldn't have lifted half of the arrays just now. Or else he wouldn't be in such a tough situation.
He couldn't escape nor could he reconstruct the rooms again. The only possible solution right now was to fight.
However, he had no regret. If he wants more treasures, he has to pay a big price.
Therefore, Ling Xian was completely focused right now and was waiting for what was about to happen next.
The seven to eight Heaven's Favorites had a serious expression as well as they realized the importance of what was happening.
It was obvious, the humankind and the foreign kinds were natural enemies who wanted to kill each other. Once all the treasures inside the room disappear, then a messy war will happen.
"Ling Xian, what should we do?"
Everyone found it hard to hide how worried they were.
"Nothing. We have to let it happen." Ling Xian's face was stern and he didn't continue to answer those who were now freaking out. His gaze was completely fixated forward with heaviness.
Just then, the grand hall began to shake more aggressively. All the rooms had disappeared as well, revealing the remaining Heaven's Favorites.
There were about 20 of them. Every single one of them had a silhouette that was as profound as the ocean and had terrifying demeanor. Out of them, seven silhouette stood out and acted like Gods who were overlooking the place.
The roc and Xue Yu Chan were among the group. So were Sun Ze Hao and Xia Ling Mu.
One of the remaining three composed of the Heaven's Favorite was from the rock kind. Its body was made out of heavenly rocks and was very mysterious.
Another was a nine headed spiritual lion. Its fur was silver and white. With its nine heads, it stood there like a small mountain, completely terrifying.
This kind of being originated from the previous era. Similar to the roc, its existence was said to be devious and they were born with the ability to steal the stars. Even today, they were considered top of the pack!
Since the one before everyone's eyes was here at the Temple, it meant it was very powerful and could represent its kind in attending today's battle. It didn't pale next to the roc!
The last creature was being veiled by a murky fog. Its silhouette could not be seen. However, from the murky fog, it was apparent that it was a very powerful being!
Looking at the three of them, Ling Xian frowned. These three powerhouses had exceeded his expectation. Even though he hadn't fought against them, from their Qi alone, he knew that this war will be a difficult one.
"Three powerhouses… if I can fight them one on one, then I have nothing to be scared of. But if they come at me at the same time, then it's bad." Ling Xian mumbled to himself.
Since there are no other ways out, he will use his bare fists to pave out a path!
Just as Ling Xian was about to begin, the Heaven's Favorites against him locked eyes with him.
Though these beings had been trapped in their rooms since the beginning, they all saw what had happened. Therefore, when they saw the dead bodies on the ground, they all searched for the one person who was soaked in blood.
Ling Xian.
Right now, his robe was completely covered in blood. Like a devil, it was difficult for him to not attract any attention.
On top of that, after seeing the dead bodies, even those who didn't see would see the connection between Ling Xian and the corpses.
"It seems like you are the one who killed them."
The rock kind's Heaven's Favorite chuckled as its rock eyes flooded with coldness. Though it was not from the same kind as the one on the ground and did not know the creature on the ground, inside the Imperishable Party, they were allies.
On top of that, everyone here had appointed it as their leader and it had been treating others as its subordinates. For its subordinate to be killed, it felt like it lost face.
"The reason for this should be the treasures. In other words, you are the owner of the treasures?" The nine headed lion suddenly asked.
Its voice was shrilling and shocking like the thunder. The blood of those who were weak were boiling at this voice. It was apparent that its capabilities were tough and it was perhaps even better than the roc!
However, against sound attacks, Ling Xian felt no threat.
"I am the one with all the treasures and I am the one who killed them."
Ling Xian admitted right away as he glanced at the powerhouses before him, "If you want to fight, then I will accompany you."
The rock kind's Heaven's Favorite's eyes flickered with shock. He didn't think Ling Xian would admit it so fast, "You sure are brave. I wonder if you have the capability to support it."
"What an interesting person. I too, want to know how capable you are." The silver lion's expression was dark as all nine of its heads turned violent.
The others also checked out the man before them with their shiny eyes. Nobody knew what they were thinking.
However, other than the rock man and the nine headed lion, everyone's lips were zipped. They knew very well that they had no rights to interrupt the conversation between powerhouses.
While beings like Xue Yu Chan had the right, they didn't want to interfere.
"How capable am I? Why don't you come and try?" Ling Xian spoke softly and did not lose his composure.
"I like people who are straight forward."
The rock kind snickered, "Good. Then let me test you out."
Then, a terrifying amount of Qi rolled out and shot in all directions. The prowess of it changed everyone's expression.
However, Ling Xian did not do anything. He was steady because he was on guard. Since the battle had started, why would he be scared?
"You speak as if you are at a higher moral ground than me. To put it bluntly, don't you just want my treasures?"
Glaring at the rock kind, Ling Xian manipulated his golden Dan. His spiritual energy burned as if oil was poured on top of it. It was the sign that his Qi was about to peak.
"Since you are clear minded, then let's not waste words. Die!"
Scorning, the rock kind made its move. A pair of rock arms smashed down from above, making the entire space tremble.
Its body was made out of rocks and its ancestors were insanely powerful. Compared to before, the blood running through its veins was very much diluted. Despite this, it remained a powerhouse that was almost unmatchable!
Thus, its one move shook up the entire space.
"You dare to be so arrogant."
Ling Xian frowned but did not fluster. His eyes flickered and a long black blade pierced through the sky and greeted the pair of arms!
HOMMMM!
The arms were extremely sturdy and were made out of strange stones from all over the universe. Though the Halberd of the Divine Warrior was not a rare technique, it was still the third transformative quality of the Eyes of Execution.
The two of them clashing created an explosion that changed the color of all cultivators on site.
"You are somewhat capable. Sadly, it's not enough."
The rock man mocked as it exploded again with an infinite amount of heavenly light that engulfed Ling Xian. The light rays had the power to dissolve anything. It appeared to be the legendary corrosive holy water – eerie and mysterious.
Instantly, Ling Xian frowned. He felt like he was swimming in lava and could melt any moment.
"Hmmph, break!"
Yelling, Ling Xian's eyes shone and the Armor of the Royal Spirits emerged. It stopped the corrosive material.
"Hmmph, other than the Inner Eyes, what else do you have?"
Seeing that its techniques were being broken, the rock kind's face dropped and it used words to attack Ling Xian.
However, Ling Xian remained composed and continued to use his armor to escape from the corrosive water. Against the sarcastic rock man, he asked softly, "Let me ask you, other than your ancestor's blood, what else do you have?"
"You sure have a tough mouth." The rock man hissed but didn't find the words to argue.
Just like Ling Xian had said, it was powerful because of its ancient spiritual blood. Without it, it wouldn't be looking down onto others.
However, if he had the blood, he was considered top notch Heaven's Favorite!
"Okay, rock man, stop wasting time. If you can't kill him then get down, let me do it." The nine headed rock spoke. All 18 of its eyes were shining with battling desires.
Though the rock kind and Ling Xian only had a hasty rebuttal, it was apparent that Ling Xian had the ability to fight them as their equal!
Therefore, the nine headed lion was somewhat excited. If the rock man didn't beat it to it, it would've run up there by now.
"This is my battle, don't you interfere." The rock man warned as it released a dominating wave of energy that engulfed the entire palace.
"Come at me, the real battle is just starting."
Ling Xian's lips curled up as he too, unleashed a strong wave of energy similar to a real immortal's!
"Make your move, I sure want to see if your capabilities match your name."
Just then, the rock man's eyes darkened. Its anger jolted like thunder as it vowed to kill the ant before its eyes!
However, just as the two powerhouses were about to start a startling battle, the Imperishable Temple suddenly stopped shaking. Instead, an unlimited amount of gold water began to flood the place and materialized into an eternal Sun.
Just then, the eternal Sun diminished. What was created instead, was three golden pages alongside a mysterious atmosphere!
The three pages were exactly the same as the pages Ling Xian received before from the Divine Book of Genesis!
