In Shi Ling's hand, the Mysterious Wood Sword waved in the air as a tiny sword aura burst out. Soon after, he saw the arrows that were flying towards him being split apart by the sword aura in an instant. When Zhang Yushui saw this scene, her eyes slightly narrowed.
This was because the sword Qi that Shi Ling had unleashed seemed light, but it actually contained a tremendous amount of power. Judging from how he had chopped the arrows in half just now, Shi Ling's sword Qi might have reached the First Sky of the Sword Qi realm if it had been a little more powerful.
Not long after, Shi Ling had already rushed to the side of the crowd. The Mysterious Wood Sword in his hand was like a scythe of the god of death, radiating sharpness that cut through all obstructions along the way.
When Shi Ling rushed to the top of the canyon, he immediately placed the Mysterious Wood Sword in front of him as he charged towards the incoming horde of men. At the same time, his body started to spin as sword Qis spread out in all directions like ripples on the water surface, instantly forcing everyone to retreat, while the closest group of people to Shi Ling had their waists chopped off on the spot.
After which, Shi Ling's gaze shifted to Zhang Yuquan, who was standing not far away, and dashed towards him.
At this time, Zhang Yuquan took out a crimson long sword. Dragon scales were drawn on the hilt of the sword and there was a faint heat coming from the inside. When Shi Ling rushed to his front, their swords collided in midair.
However, Shi Ling succeeded in his attack and pounced towards Zhang Yuquan. Lifting the Mysterious Wood Sword with one hand, he swung it towards Zhang Yuquan, causing Zhang Yuquan's pupils to constrict. His body swayed and he jumped to the side, and the Mysterious Wood Sword immediately cut the huge boulder behind Zhang Yuquan in half.
When Zhang Yuquan saw this scene, cold sweat started to roll down his forehead. He could not help but mutter, "What a sharp sword!"
Yet, at this moment, Shi Ling charged towards him once again with an evil smile on his face. From the looks of it, he seemed to be very excited.
At this moment, many people around him picked up their magic treasures, like shields, longswords, or darts, and threw them at Shi Ling. However, when they faced his Mystic Wood Sword, they were all split in half.
At the same time that Zhang Yuquan was being chased and beaten by Shi Ling, he shouted at the experts in other places, "What are you guys still standing there for? Hurry up and come over to help! "
In truth, the experts from the other areas had already rushed over. It was just that they hadn't arrived yet.
The Mysterious Wood Sword in Shi Ling's hand was enveloped by a sword Qi, causing the sharpness of the sword to become even more terrifying. As it slashed down towards Zhang Yushui, a loud roar rang out: "Insolent!"
After that, a crackling sound entered Shi Ling's ears. He could feel an extremely strong electric arc shooting towards him, but his hands did not stop moving, and he continued to slash down towards Zhang Yushui, causing Zhang Yushui to be scared out of her wits, the scarlet longsword in her hands was thrown away by him. In the instant she clashed with the black wood sword, she was cut off by the black wood sword, but this also allowed Zhang Yushui to escape for a while.
At this moment, the crackling sound approached, and Shi Ling flipped his hand to hit the incoming mana fluctuation.
With a light sound of explosion, a cloud of smoke exploded around Shi Ling, causing him to retreat backwards due to the shock.
At the same time, a wave of mana fluctuations also came from the other two spots behind Shi Ling. Shi Ling turned around and slashed the black wood sword into the ground, and immediately, a shocking sword aura was released with the Mysterious Wood Sword as the center and the ground as the point of contact. The mana fluctuations approaching Shi Ling were all extinguished at this moment.
Only now did Shi Ling realize what had happened. There were three experts in total, all of whom were at the early stage of Body Tempering. One of them was a burly man with a curly beard, the other was a charming woman, and the third was a handsome young man.
His name was Sun Jian, and he was dressed in an azure blue robe with a bronze dagger at his waist. His strength was the strongest amongst the three of them, and he was only one step away from reaching the large success stage of the Body Tempering stage.
As for that charming woman, Xu Jiao was the weakest of the three. Her sword, was the hairpin that she had stuck in her bun, and that horned bearded big fellow, with his exaggerated muscles, gave off a strong feeling of eruption. On his back was a black broadsword that was the same as Shi Lingxuan's sword, only, his sword was made of pure metal.
Shi Ling's gaze swept over the three of them, and the two eyes that were blossoming in his eyes started to spin.
Not far away, Zhang Yuquan said to the three of them, "Be careful of that person's broadsword!"
Although Zhang Yuquan was currently severely injured, he still had to remind the three great experts that, after all, he had just experienced the power of Shi Lingxuan's wooden sword, so it was fast and fierce. When his strength had increased, he felt as if a hammer was striking down on him, but when he quickly recovered, it was also incomparably sharp.
After saying that, he was escorted by a few people to a tree to heal his injuries.
Upon hearing these words, the three of them revealed expressions of disdain. From their point of view, Shi Ling's strength was sufficient to deal with a young master like Zhang Yuquan. However, if he were to deal with them, he was far from enough.
At the same time, the handsome youth also pulled out the short sword at his waist and released a powerful bolt of lightning, shooting it towards Shi Ling. The charming woman took off her hairpin, before turning it into a sword, and charged towards Shi Ling as well.
At this moment, Shi Ling's expression was somewhat sinister, as if he was getting more and more excited about the battle before him. At this moment, his eyes were still rotating, causing a trace of a demonic blue light to appear in them.
Shi Ling thrust his Mysterious Wood Sword forward, instantly blocking the lightning bolt shot by the handsome man. After that, Shi Ling turned around and caught the broadsword chopped down by the bearded man with two fingers, while his other hand formed the shape of a sword, pointing towards the center of the big man's chest.
After being hit by Shi Ling's kick, the bearded man trembled, and his power instantly weakened. Shi Ling then kicked him in the abdomen, sending him flying.
At this moment, the charming lady behind Shi Ling had already approached. The green leaves that surrounded her body were shooting towards her back like darts.
With a light thud, Shi Ling's back was struck by several green leaves. Next, the charming woman swung her sword horizontally towards his neck, intending to behead him.
Right at this moment, a light sound rang out. Before the charming woman's sword could touch Shi Ling's neck, it was kicked in the stomach by Shi Ling's kick. The force from that kick instantly broke the magic barrier on the charming woman's body.
After that, the charming woman was sent flying and heavily crashed into the ground. She even spat out a mouthful of blood from her mouth.
When the handsome man saw this, his eyes widened slightly. If he hadn't seen wrongly just now, Shi Ling's attacks on the bearded man and the charming woman were all targeted.
Just like how Shi Ling's finger attack on the big bearded man's chest directly injured all the meridians in his body, and that charming woman's attack, Shi Ling seemed to have exposed his back in front of the charming woman. In truth, Shi Ling was very clear on every single movement the charming woman made, and the reason for this was because he wanted to kick that charming woman until she fell down, causing her to be unable to get up.
At this moment, Shi Ling turned around and a stream of sword Qi circled around his body, pushing away the green leaves behind him. Then, he pulled out the Mysterious Wood Sword and stared coldly at the handsome man.
At this time, the handsome man looked at the charming woman on the ground and the bearded man not too far away and said, "You can see through our flaws in our moves?!"
Upon hearing these words, the eyes of Zhang Yuquan, who was sitting not far away and recovering from his injuries, couldn't help but widen as he stared disbelievingly at Shi Ling.
That's right, if Shi Ling hadn't been able to see through the flaws in the moves of those experts, he wouldn't have been able to use those targeted attacks. Furthermore, he wouldn't have been able to defeat two early stage Body Tempering martial artists in one move.
Meanwhile, at this time, Shi Ling did not respond. He placed the Mystic Wood Sword on his shoulder, and when the blade touched his shoulder, it became dull in an instant, ensuring that Shi Ling would not be injured by the blade.
Shi Ling glared coldly at the handsome man as he whispered, "It's your turn!"
The moment he said those words, the handsome man pursed his lips. At this moment, he felt a chill in his heart. If Shi Ling really could see through the flaws in his moves, then there was no need for him to continue fighting.
Of course, if his strength was much higher than Shi Ling's, he would still dare to try because "absolute strength can cover up all the flaws!"
However, the problem was that there was only a single stage of difference between Shi Ling and him. His opponent was at the great circle of the Spirit Accumulation Realm, he was at the initial level of the Body Tempering Realm, and with his opponent's terrifying physical strength, fierce broadsword, and sharp sword Qi, he no longer had even the slightest intention of fighting.
Suddenly, a loud roar could be heard, "Bastard, hand your life over!"
Zhang Yusheng appeared out of nowhere and actually charged towards Shi Lingyun.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Yuquan immediately roared out, "Brother, don't! "Come back!"
Previously, when Shi Ling charged out from the bottom of the canyon, he was knocked unconscious by the sword qi that Shi Ling had released. When he woke up, he saw his younger brother sitting under a tree with heavy injuries, and many of his own juniors had also fallen under Shi Ling's hands.
At this moment, he was truly infuriated. Therefore, he completely ignored the difference in strength between him and Shi Ling and actually charged towards Shi Ling. Yet, Shi Ling did not turn back at this moment.
When Zhang Yusheng approached Shi Ling, a Fierce Sun Fist was executed by him. This was a Level 1 Martial Arts from the Zhang Family. However, at this moment, the corners of Shi Ling's mouth slightly curled up as he clenched one of his palms into a fist. Then, a ball of flame wrapped around Shi Ling's fist.
When Zhang Yusheng and the other Zhang disciples saw this scene, their expressions all changed, because, what Shi Ling had just used was actually also the Fierce Sun Fist, a Zhang Family martial art.
At this moment, when Zhang Yusheng saw Shi Ling's fist, which was wrapped in flames, his eyes were filled with disbelief. He roared out, "How did you know my Zhang Family's martial art?!"
However, Shi Ling did not say anything. In fact, he had already memorized all of the Zhang Clan's martial arts moves during the match between Shi Ling and Xu Hao. After reaching the Transcendent Mortal Realm, he had managed to figure out this martial arts technique by himself.
However, at this time, Shi Ling shook his finger at Zhang Yusheng and said, "No, no, my martial arts are even stronger than yours!"
Upon saying that, the flame surrounding Shi Ling's palm suddenly changed and actually turned green in color. The temperature within the flame also rose abruptly. The two brothers, Zhang Yusheng and Zhang Yuquan were filled with disbelief when they saw this scene.
"I call it the 'Crippling Sun Burst'!" Shi Ling whispered.
Saying this, Shi Ling fiercely swung out his fist, and soon after, the green flame rushed towards Zhang Yusheng, before transforming into a huge fist in front of Zhang Yusheng's eyes. Zhang Yusheng hurriedly crossed his arms in front of his chest, and with a light thumping sound, Zhang Yusheng was sent flying backwards.
However, the current Shi Ling would not let him off so easily. He immediately arrived in front of Zhang Yusheng and grabbed him up. In the distance, even though Zhang Yuquan was heavily injured, he also stood up.
Most of them were only seventeen or eighteen years old, but before they had joined the Spirit Sword Sect, their parents and relatives had warned them that the cultivation world was a cruel domain, where only the strong preyed on the weak. In order to grow stronger, every single expert was destined to step onto a mountain of corpses.
They felt that they would definitely be able to do it. Yet now, when they saw with their own eyes how determined Shi Ling was to kill and how heads flew up into the sky one after another, blood spilled all over the sky, they were filled with fear.
If it was possible, they wouldn't be willing to fight against Shi Ling any longer. However, since their master had given them the order, they had no choice but to obey.
Shi Ling grabbed Zhang Yusheng's neck with one hand and said, "Step down!"
After Zhang Yuquan heard these words, his fists were clenched so tightly that it sounded like he was unwilling to let Shi Ling go.
At this point, the strength of Shi Ling's hand increased, pinching Zhang Yusheng until his body began to twitch. At the same time, he also shouted, "Retreat!"
At this moment, Zhang Yuquan waved his hand with unwillingness. His head was lowered, and he indicated for everyone to leave.
These people had already been frightened by Shi Ling's imposing aura. After obtaining the approval of their master, they naturally didn't linger and quickly opened up a path.
At this moment, Zhang Yu Quan also followed behind him. Immediately, a group of people followed behind Shi Ling. When Shi Ling was about 500 metres away from them, he stopped and the people following behind him also came to a sudden halt.
Zhang Yuquan shouted, "Release them!"
The corner of Shi Ling's mouth lifted slightly. Immediately, he directly threw Zhang Yusheng's body towards them.
Zhang Yuquan immediately rushed over, but at this moment, Shi Ling suddenly threw the Mystic Wood Sword in his hand towards Zhang Yusheng.
The heavy and black Mysterious Wood Sword was like a boomerang, instantly approaching Zhang Yusheng, and then, with a soft pfft sound, a big good head flew out, and a large amount of blood sprayed out from his neck. A lot of blood sprayed onto Zhang Yuquan's face, and upon seeing this, Zhang Yuquan was instantly stunned. He immediately knelt down and shouted at the headless corpse, "Brother!"
Dong! The headless corpse fell to the ground. A head rolled over to Zhang Yuquan's side.
At this moment, the Mysterious Wood Sword flew back towards Shi Ling like a boomerang. Shi Ling raised his hand and caught it. After he saw that his objective had been accomplished, he placed the sword on his back and turned around to flee.
