War God Supreme

Chapter 60: The Single Move Engagement

“D*mn it, d*mn it.”

Rendered speechless, Spiritual Master Tian Xiao was on the warpath. As violent Qi over his body soared skyward, he was one step away from going berserk and tearing Li Lingtian apart.

“Are all Warrior Ascendants like this? Sigh, piece of trash.”

Maintaining an indifferent demeanor, Li Lingtian continued to insult Tian Xiao. He was not afraid of him as long as the other Warrior Ascendants of Tian Jin Empire stayed out of it.

“Tian Xiao, you’re a Clan Elder of Tian Jin Empire. There’s no need to set yourself against a disciple. Don’t tell me you wish for Sky Dragon Empire and Tian Jin Empire to be at war?”

Tian He cried out loud. As a Warrior of Sky Dragon Empire, he had to say something against a Sky Cloud Sect disciple being suppressed.

Moreover, this Li Lingtian was growing on him so it was only natural to lend a hand.

“Fine, I’ll let him off the hook on the grounds that he survives my single move and hand over the storage sack.”

Tian Xiao noticed many super powerhouses looking at him with disdain. Tian Jin Empire must not end up the talk of the town in a negative light. However, it was imperative to retrieve Tian Wuji’s storage sack. There was no chance that the Warrior Spirit disciple would survive his single move anyway.

For a moment, Sky Dragon Empire’s Warriors were cursing under their breaths. It was impossible for a Tier Seven Warrior Spirit to sustain a move by a Tier Five Warrior Ascendant[1]. He was just masquerading the act of killing Li Lingtian with fancy words.

Sky Cloud Sect disciples and Tian He were about to refute when Li Lingtian spoke up. He really had quite a wicked sense of humor.

“Great, make your move.”

“Relax, I won’t allow it to help me. Look at you, so pitiful,” Li Lingtian faintly replied with the same indifferent attitude.

Li Lingtian was itching to give the True Dragon Body Barrier a go. He could survive on the account that he remained cautious.

Woah.

It caused a huge uproar among the Warriors to see Li Lingtian tooting his horn up to this point. No Warrior Ascendant on site could tackle a Tier Five Warrior Ascendant’s single move, let alone a Tier Seven Warrior Spirit disciple.

He had opted not to use the Multicolored Beast as well. Li Lingtian was definitely going straight to hell.

“D*mn it, d*mn it. I’ll let you go if you can handle my one move. Hand over the storage sack.”

Spiritual Master Tian Xiao was on the verge of running amok as his tolerance ran out before this young man. He would lose his mind at the rate he was going.

“Heavenly Destruction Technique, Gale Cloud Palm.”

In a flash, Tian Xiao leaped back a hundred yards, suspending himself in the air. Keeping an eagle eye on Li Lingtian, Tian Xiao circulated his body of True Vitality excessively in an attempt to finish Li Lingtian in one move.

Paying no mind to Tian Xiao, Li Lingtian’s body plunged downwards as he circulated the Breeze Technique to descend on the surface. He was not a Warrior Ascendant and could not take to the air. Hence, he had to take the blow on the ground.

For a moment, tension was building up in the air as close to two thousand Warriors watched Li Lingtian and Tian Xiao from afar while the four Warrior Kings of Sky Cloud Sect turned pale in the face.

“Elder, the Ice and Fire Ring is on Li Lingtian. I was incompetent.”

A Tier Nine Warrior Spirit disciple whispered. His face showed fear when his eyes turned to Li Lingtian.

“It’s not your fault. His ability puts him above a person you can deal with. I will have someone above to deal with the Ice and Fire Ring matter.”

Stealing a glance at Li Lingtian, a Warrior King in black muttered back before transmitting a message to a disciple in the front. The content of the conversation was not known.

“Do you think he can take a hit?” Celestial Fairy Bai Ling’s eyes were fixated on Li Lingtian and Spiritual Master Tian Xiao.

“It’s impossible. It’s a Tier Five Warrior King we’re talking about. Even you and I would not be able to handle it,” Celestial Fairy Qing Ling answered in a soft voice.

“The strike of a Tier Five Warrior Ascendant could move mountains. It’s out of the question for Tier Nine Warrior Kings, let alone a Warrior Spirit.”

“The dust will settle after this move.”

“It’s a pity to lose a genius disciple. He’s just too arrogant and naive.”

All Warriors were engaged in heated discussion all the while as this was none of their business. For Sky Cloud Sect to lose a genius, it was not all bad for them.

Meanwhile, Tian Xiao had circulated Gale Cloud Palm, sending a destructive air current between heaven and earth. The sky turned gray as if it was the end of the world.

Warriors that were secondary to Warrior Kings circulated their technique in resisting the oppressive Qi in the air. The fear in their faces spoke volumes.

“You may begin, and cut the fancy moves. Don’t be looking for excuses then,” Li Lingtian said out loud.

Standing on the ground, Li Lingtian darted a cold stare at Tian Xiao suspended in the sky. He made a note to himself to grow stronger so that he could take to the air when he became a Warrior Ascendant.

“Boom.”

At an astonishing bang, a great palm print appeared in the air. With Spiritual Qi and energy between heaven and earth swiftly amassing, the ten-foot-tall palm print doubled its size and brought about the drive of Armageddon.

“Die I say, die.”

Tian Xiao’s body of violent energy was quickly stripped away while his True Vitality was almost exhausted in full. It seemed that the move functioned as a Forbidden Spell to him.

“Gale Cloud Palm.”

“Tian Xiao’s really out to get him.”

“This Gale Cloud Palm, together with Heavenly Destructive Technique are much too powerful for even a Tier Six Warrior Ascendant to handle.”

The terrifying palm print carrying an astounding drive of force was slammed onto the surface-bound Li Lingtian. The vicious attack of a Warrior Ascendant filled the atmosphere with an air of death.

“Is this the strength of a Warrior Ascendant?”

Li Lingtian dared not let his guard down at a time like this. One false step and he could potentially perish. His desire for strength had reached a limit.

“Ice Vitality Divine Fist, Three Thousand Mile Frost.”

He circulated his body of True Qi to form a glacier within a two hundred yard radius around him. The glacier gave an illusion of an ice palace, a sight to behold. With that, the temperature plummeted down to a chilling degree.

“Thousand Shadows of Fluttering Flowers.”

At the swing of Li Lingtian’s arm, an astonishing blade aura soared in the sky. The Purple Green Sword unleashed the Astounding Sword Technique’s third form, Thousand Shadows of Fluttering Flowers, prompting the air to break out in hundreds of blade aura and flickers.

“Ice and Fire Ring, temper.”

An exquisite ring appeared at the forefront. Li Lingtian’s body of True Qi was dunked into the Ice and Fire Ring, stirring the ring to enlarge to ten feet to create a barrier over him.

Li Lingtian released several powerful attacks and defenses in one go. As he had qualms about unleashing Heaven and Earth Conflagration and Ice Vitality Divine Fist together, he opted to release Ice Vitality Divine Fist and Three Thousand Mile Frost instead.

Most of his True Qi was consumed after the release of several attacks and defenses. The draconic Qi in his body was circulated to the limit in launching the first layer of True Dragon Body Barrier, pushing his defense to a peak.

“Bam.”

Following a loud explosion, the astonishing palm print carrying destructive energy crushed the glacier to bits.

However, the solidification of the glacier had absorbed most of the Gale Cloud Palm’s force. The shattered glacier was due to the hundreds of blade aura and flickers ganging up on the palm print.

“Sizzle, sizzle.”

“Crackle, crackle.”

The Gale Cloud Palm demolished the blade aura and flickers in its path and went straight to the Ice and Fire Ring at extreme speed.

Up in the air, close to two thousand pairs of widened eyes watched Li Lingtian down below. These few powerful attacks and defenses may be omnipotent, but insufficient for a Warrior Ascendant.

“Wham.”

“Bam.”

The Gale Cloud Palm struck the Ice and Fire Ring with a loud explosion. With a confounding Chilling Qi and Flaming Qi coming into blows with the Gale Cloud Palm, the Ice and Fire Ring collapsed to the ground.

In the sky, Tian Xiao’s face gradually turned solemn. He was clear on the impact of his Gale Cloud Palm. Although it may be awe-inspiring, the combination of attacks and defense had canceled out most of its effects.

Nevertheless, as long as one strand of energy landed on Li Lingtian, he was long gone. Tian Xiao was a Warrior Ascendant after all, and not someone a Warrior Spirit could defeat.

“Wham.”

At a loud bang, the Gale Cloud Palm slammed onto Li Lingtian before everyone’s eyes. Just as the Gale Cloud Palm came in contact with Li Lingtian, a peculiar aura burst out of him. The aura came and went in a flash.

Li Lingtian was thrown back by impact, catapulting several hundred yards away before disappearing in the bushes. The world resumed its silence, leaving only heavy winds tormenting the space.
