Boom!
The Sky Devourer Sword shone brightly and a blazing radiance was awakened. It clashed with the halberd and instantly released a vast divine light that swept across the surroundings like a tidal wave.
Although the Sword Spirit of the Sky Devourer Sword had disappeared, it was still a peerless divine weapon in Ling Xiao's previous life. Its material was even more precious than the halberd and it contained a peerless sword intent that could devour the heavens and earth.
The Impermanence Ghost General's expression changed as he felt the halberd in his hand vibrating as though it was heavily injured. He instantly retreated a few dozen feet back.
Ling Xiao also used this force to retreat. At the same time, he carried Ji Feixuan and left the battlefield.
"Are you alright?"
Ling Xiao looked at Ji Feixuan in his arms and smiled.
At this moment, Ji Feixuan's face was very pale. Her face was covered by a veil, revealing her smooth skin and jade-like bones. Her eyes were especially bright as she looked at Ling Xiao with a peerless smile.
"Isn't it because of you?
Otherwise, how could I have ended up like this? "
Ji Feixuan's light voice sounded with a hint of coquettishness, causing Ling Xiao's heart to skip a beat.
He knew what Ji Feixuan was talking about. If it wasn't for Ling Xiao's Spirit Devourer Pill, Ji Feixuan wouldn't have been so severely injured by the Impermanence Ghost General.
"Hehe, Your Majesty, I'll detoxify your poison now!"
Ling Xiao chuckled as a surge of Heaven-Devouring True Qi rushed into Ji Feixuan's body and detoxified the poison of the Spirit Devourer Pill in her dantian.
The Spirit Devourer Pill was formed by Ling Xiao's Heaven-Devouring True Qi. It was extremely difficult for others to detoxify it, but it was very easy for Ling Xiao.
Boom!
Without the restriction of the Spirit-engulfing Pill's poison, a powerful aura was emitted from Ji Feixuan's body. The boundless Heaven and Earth Essence was absorbed into her body. Ji Feixuan's face also began to turn rosy.
"You're Ling Xiao?
You're only in the Heaven Realm and you're actually able to withstand my halberd. You're quite capable! "
The Impermanence Ghost General glared at Ling Xiao and said coldly.
However, his heart wasn't as calm as he looked on the surface. A Heaven Realm cultivator was able to withstand his halberd. Such a person was considered one of the top peerless geniuses even in the War God Continent.
How could there be such a monster in the barren Eight regions?
"Who the hell are you?
Since you dared to offend my Changsen Sect, then all of you shall stay here today! "
Ling Xiao's gaze was incomparably sharp as he spoke in a domineering manner.
If Ghost General Wuchang and the Ninth Saint were from the War God Continent, then Ling Xiao thought of the Yellow Springs Rising Dragon Formation in the Longevity Mystic Realm and the strange changes in the Underworld Sect.
Ling Xiao naturally did not have a good impression of them. Killing intent surged in his heart.
"Brat, how dare you be so arrogant?
This general wants to see what ability you have to make this general stay! "
The Impermanence Ghost General was so angry that he laughed, his eyes revealing a trace of coldness.
Boom!
The Heavenly Halberd paused in the air for a moment. Instantly, a powerful sound wave spread out towards the sky. The surrounding rocks and trees were turned into dust by the sound wave.
"Where did this brat come from?
You dare to show off in front of me? "
Before Ling Xiao could make a move, the Old Goat had already stepped forward.
Black light surged around the old goat's body like a black vortex, instantly swallowing the sound waves.
The Old Goat was not satisfied after killing Hong Luo previously. Now that he saw an even stronger Impermanence Ghost General, the Old Goat was eager to give it a try. He could not let Ling Xiao steal all the limelight.
Today's battle would let the world know the Old Goat's name, the Heaven Devouring Great Emperor.
"You are Ling Xiao?"
The Ninth Saint stopped the enraged Impermanence Ghost General and slowly walked over from the void. He looked down at the clouds with an invisible air of arrogance.
"I am Ling Xiao!
You are the mastermind behind the four sacred grounds' attack on the Changsen Mountain today, right? "
Ling Xiao's eyes flashed as he spoke indifferently.
"That's right, it's me!
A mere ant like the Changsen Mountain can be destroyed with a wave of my hand. However, I have changed my mind. As long as you give me your martial arts and the sword in your hand, as well as kneel down and submit to me, I can spare your life! "
The Ninth Saint said indifferently as he looked at the Heaven Devouring Sword with a hint of passion in his eyes.
He thought of a certain legend, and when he saw the Heaven Devouring Supreme statue below, his heart was burning with passion.
If the Heaven Devouring Sword in Ling Xiao's hand was really that legendary treasure, then it would be the Ninth Saint's greatest gain from this trip.
Ling Xiao was stunned for a moment before a mocking smile appeared on his face.
"Who do you think you are?
You want my martial arts and ancient sword? Are you worthy? "
This so-called Ninth Saint was really someone from the War God Continent. He had sharp eyes and could tell that Ling Xiao's martial arts and Heaven Devouring Sword were extraordinary.
"How dare you!
Ling Xiao, the Ninth Saint is a peerless prodigy of the War God Continent. The power behind him is not something you can imagine. How dare you be so rude to the Saint?
Kneel down and accept your death! "
The Grand Elder of the Underworld Sect shouted at Ling Xiao with a venomous look in his eyes.
"A peerless prodigy of the War God Continent?"
Nangong Xuan and the others shuddered. Even the experts from the Four Great Holy Lands were shocked beyond belief.
Legend had it that the War God Continent was the center of this world, where experts and geniuses gathered.
The strongest people in the Eight Desolation Region were only those in the Noble Realm. On the War God Continent, it was said that Nobles were everywhere, and Emperors were no better than dogs. Only the mighty Supremes were the top experts of the War God Continent.
No wonder the Ninth Saint looked so young and had such an unfathomable cultivation. He was a peerless prodigy of the War God Continent.
"That can't be, right?
The Eight Desolation Region and the War God Continent are separated by the endless Reincarnation Ocean. It is said that there is no life in the Reincarnation Ocean. Why would someone from the War God Continent come to our small Eight Desolation Region? "
Some people were shocked and found it hard to believe.
Boom!
The Ninth Saint stood with his hands clasped behind his back as if in agreement with the words of the Supreme Elder of the Underworld Sect. His body exuded an aura that seemed to dominate the world. It was vast and unparalleled. That overwhelming aura caused everyone's expression to change drastically.
"A Noble Realm expert?!
He's even stronger than the Grand Elders? "
Everyone's eyes were filled with incomparable reverence.
To have such a cultivation at such a young age, he was definitely not someone the small Eight Desolation Region could nurture.
At this moment, the Ninth Saint stood in the air. His black hair fluttered in the wind. His figure was slender and handsome, and his face was devilishly handsome. It was as if he had become the center of the world. He carried an indescribable pride and spirit.
"Ling Xiao, your talent is extraordinary. If you are willing to hand over your martial arts and ancient sword and submit to me, I will bring you to the War God Continent and let you join the real sacred ground of martial arts. What do you think?"
