Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Several flying swords appeared, and Ning Tian, with the agility of a dragon, instinctively dodged them.
An ambush?
Ning Tian frowned slightly and slowly turned around.
"Tsk, tsk."
"To think you actually dodged that, Ning Tian, you sure have a big life."
A cold voice sounded.
Ning Tian turned to look, and as expected, it was a disciple from Yi Jian Sect who had taken action.
"You are…"
Ning Tian narrowed his eyes, looking at the Yi Jian Sect disciple with a veiled face, "You are, Lin Xiaoyao?"
"Haha! I didn't expect the legendary ancestor of the Heavenly Demon Sect to actually remember me!" Lin Xiaoyao's eyes were fierce.
"To be able to sneak attack from behind, besides you, Lin thief, I really can't think of anyone else."
Ning Tian said indifferently.
"Lin thief?" Lin Xiaoyao was stunned.
"Yearning for someone else's wife, if you're not a thief, then who is? Perhaps, Cao thief? Ridiculous," Ning Tian said lightly.
"You!"
A murderous intent flashed in Lin Xiaoyao's eyes, "You have a sharp tongue! I won't argue with you, today, I want you dead right here!"
"Attack!"
He waved his hand, and the five great warriors of the Earth King realm with five stars attacked Ning Tian in unison.
Besides being disciples of Yi Jian Sect and Héqì Sect, they had another identity.
They were the trusted subordinates of Lin Ba!
So, at this moment, they were willing to fight desperately to take Ning Tian down!
"Are they going to fight on the lake surface?"
Witnessing this scene, people around look on with strange expressions, as if they aren't afraid of the monster at the bottom of the lake?
"Heh heh, you all fight on!"
The other three strong warriors of the Holy Emperor realm were overjoyed to see what was happening behind them.
Their fight would not only attract the attention of the lake's bottom monster but also provide plenty of observation time for them.
"Ning Tian, today you must die! Afterward, I will take care of your wife!"
Lin Xiaoyao laughed loudly, his eyes revealing a hint of madness.
"Looking for death."
A killing intent flashed in Ning Tian's eyes.
A dragon has inverse scales, touch them and you'll face its wrath!
Clearly, Lin Xiaoyao had stirred up a strong killing intent in his heart.
"I'm looking for death? Hahaha!"
Lin Xiaoyao laughed madly.
"The six of us against you alone, can you counter-kill me? Hahaha!"
"Is that so?"
"Then let's try."
A killing aura silently grew in the corners of Ning Tian's eyes, the Heavenly Divine Record operated, the Thunder Tribulation and the Joy Way spiritual veins appeared behind him!
"This youngster."
Seeing this, the young Three Holy Emperors' unflappable eyes flashed a light.
"Kill!"
"Kill him for me!"
At Lin Xiaoyao's command, five Earth King realm five-star warriors rushed towards Ning Tian.
Seeing this, Ning Tian reached the pinnacle of his Dragon's Dance steps, and a fiery light appeared in his hand, transforming into a Flaming Sword.
[Swordsmanship activated!]
At this moment, Ning Tian was brimming with sword intent.
[Earth-level low-grade martial art: Sword Technique: Shadow Following]
[Sword intent at will!]
Sword Technique: Shadow Following activated.
Ning Tian held the Chixiao Sword and combined with the Dragon's Dance steps, leaving five afterimages on the surface of the lake.
A sword slashed down.
Those five afterimages also performed the same action.
Boom!
An unstoppable sword intent, hugging the surface of the water, splitting through and rushing directly toward those five Earth King realm warriors!
Bang!
The five of them were shocked and then immediately activated their spiritual power to resist.
Just then, the sword intent disappeared out of thin air, and the original afterimages on the lake appeared before them. Suddenly, the disappeared sword intent exploded from the five afterimages!
"What!"
"Such a fast sword!"
Their expressions changed drastically, and it was already too late to defend.
A ferocious sword wound appeared on their chests.
"Pfft!"
Blood flowed continuously, and under the impact of the sword intent, their bodies fell onto the surface of the water!
And what greeted them were the gaping jaws of the monster from the lake's bottom!
Awooo!
Swallowed in one gulp!
One sword, one bite, and these five people were dead in an instant!
"What!"
Lin Xiaoyao's face changed, he was stunned in place.
Suddenly, a voice rang beside him.
"Lin thief, during a fight, you must never lose focus!"
Ning Tian chuckled coldly, the dark energy in his hand surged as he struck out with a palm.
[Heavenly Demon Palm, activated!]
Boom!
A palm strike directly hit Lin Xiaoyao's head!
At this moment, Ning Tian was no longer the person he once was; his strength was unimaginable!
Bang!
Like a watermelon splitting, Lin Xiaoyao's head burst open.
His body fell into the lake, and soon entered the mouth of the lake's bottom monster.
Ning Tian used two palms, one to shatter Lin Xiaoyao's Dao heart, and one to directly end his life!
Taking advantage of the lake's bottom monster devouring those bodies, Ning Tian hurriedly operated the Dragon's Dance steps, heading towards the small island.
"So strong."
Seeing Ning Tian wipe out six people in the blink of an eye, those around widened their eyes.
What was crucial was that the strength of these six people was stronger than his.
"Such a fast sword! Worthy to be the ancestor! The ancestor is simply too amazing!"
Seeing Ning Tian use sword intent, Ling Ao admired from the bottom of his heart.
Ning Tian rushed onto the island.
Having been delayed by Lin Xiaoyao, two of the Holy Emperor realm powerhouses had already chosen their orbs.
The last one was still observing.
"System, use the Treasure Hunt Card!"
Ning Tian thought to himself.
The Treasure Hunt Card, using it at this time, was the best choice!
[Using Treasure Hunt Card!]
[Usage successful!]
[Current Treasure Hunt Card duration: one hour!]
Once the Treasure Hunt Card was used, Ning Tian's eyes flashed with a golden light, and the items within the orbs were revealed without question.
Seeing that the two Holy Emperor realm powerhouses had chosen mere spiritual artifacts, Ning Tian breathed a sigh of relief.
But before he could relax, he saw the last Holy Emperor realm powerhouse reaching for an orb!
In that orb was an immortal artifact!
Damn it!
Ning Tian was startled and had the sudden urge to act.
He yelled, "Immortal artifact!"
Immediately, he used the Dragon's Dance steps and rushed towards a certain orb with haste!
His voice caused the Holy Emperor realm powerhouse to pause, his hand that was only five centimeters away from the orb to stop.
Seeing Ning Tian charging towards an orb, he hesitated for a moment.
"This youngster seems to be the legendary ancestor of the Heavenly Demon Sect!"
"Perhaps he has some treasure-hunting method given to him by the Empress in his hands."
His eyes rolling, he suddenly realized!
The orb Ning Tian was rushing towards, perhaps that was the immortal artifact!
"Hahaha!"
"Sorry, legendary ancestor of the Heavenly Demon Sect!"
The Holy Emperor realm powerhouse laughed loudly as a fierce spiritual force bombarded Ning Tian!
Seeing this, Ning Tian could only pretend to dodge, slowing down just a moment too late.
Meanwhile, the Holy Emperor realm powerhouse took advantage of the gap and quickly reached the orb before anyone else.
"You, what are you doing!" Ning Tian pretended to be flustered, "This, this is not an immortal artifact, it's just an ordinary spiritual artifact."
"Hahaha!"
The Holy Emperor realm powerhouse laughed, "If it's just a spiritual artifact, then why did you, the ancestor, run so fast?"
"I…I…"
Ning Tian clenched his teeth and pretending to be furious, "I saw it first!"
"Haha! But I touched it first!"
The Holy Emperor realm powerhouse was extremely proud and smugly placed his hand on the orb.
Seeing this scene, the two Holy Emperors who had already made their selections felt cold and regretful!
They should have waited for this legendary ancestor to choose!
He's the husband of the Empress, he must have some means to detect treasures!
Sigh!
Impulsive!
"Ancestor."
Seeing that the orb chosen by Ning Tian was snatched, Ling Ao and the disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect immediately became worried.
Many sighed, and some reveled in schadenfreude.
"Sigh."
"In that case."
"I can only, with tears, choose the real immortal artifact now."
Ning Tian sighed.
But the smile on his face was something he couldn't conceal.
"Real, the real immortal artifact?"
The Holy Emperor realm powerhouse was stunned, "What, what do you mean?"
He was still somewhat baffled when he saw Ning Tian approach the orb he had previously intended to choose and gently press his hand down.
Boom!
At that moment, the aura exploded.
"It's over."
The young Three Holy Emperors said blandly.
Everyone looked at the Three Holy Emperors, hoping he would solve the mystery.
"Boom!"
With a swipe of his hand, the Ten Orbs slowly dissipated their light.
The crowd looked on.
"Spiritual artifact."
"Another spiritual artifact."
Seeing that the orbs chosen by the two Holy Emperor realm powerhouses contained spiritual artifacts, everyone was shocked.
"What the hell!"
"Young man, you, you tricked me!"
At this moment, the Holy Emperor realm powerhouse who had been smugly satisfied let out a painful scream.
Everyone looked to see that the orb in his hand was just a spiritual artifact!
Not an immortal artifact?
Everyone was taken aback.
"When did I ever say this was an immortal artifact? I've been saying it's just a spiritual artifact the whole time, right?"
Ning Tian gave a helpless smile and spread his hands.
"It's just that you didn't believe me."
"You, you…!"
The Holy Emperor realm powerhouse was furious.
Seeing this spectacle, everyone couldn't help but think a sentence.
The ancestor is so sly!
"Hmph, even so, it's not necessarily an immortal artifact!"
The Holy Emperor realm powerhouse snorted coldly, clenching his teeth tightly.
And just then, the aura within Ning Tian's orb dissipated, bursting into a brilliant radiance.
This is…
An immortal artifact!
"You, me!? Pfft!"
Seeing that the orb contained an immortal artifact, the Holy Emperor realm powerhouse spat blood continuously!
He had just missed by a bit!
Just a tiny bit away from touching it!
Damn it!
Tricked by that bastard from the Heavenly Demon Sect!
