Ling Tian Sword God

Chapter 151: Chapter 150 Great Wilderness Python_1

”Ling Chen!”

The moment she saw Ling Chen, a look of sudden surprise and joy crossed Xiao Muyu’s face. She hadn’t expected to encounter Ling Chen in this place.

”Meddling brat, if you’re so eager to die, I’ll gladly oblige!”

The Flower-picking Ghost Envoy was enraged by Ling Chen ruining his fun. He quickly shot a poison needle from the center of the Metal Flower he held, aimed directly at Ling Chen’s throat.

”Ling Chen, watch out!” Xiao Muyu cried in alarm.

DING!

Ling Chen blocked the poison needle with his Heavenly Mansion Sword, causing it to bounce off and fly away.

With a swift change in Sword Momentum, he swung his sword outward. The strike seemed to carry the weight of countless rivers and mountains, an endless momentum converging into one.

Landscape Swordsmanship, fourth movement: Thousands of Mountains and Rivers.

This is bad!

Unable to clearly see Ling Chen’s attack, the Flower-picking Ghost Envoy’s face turned pale. He hastily raised his Metal Flower, attempting to block Ling Chen’s sword.

The Metal Flower spun, blooming like a resplendent flower aiming to shatter the thousands of mountains and rivers.

However, the ultimate result was its complete destruction. The overpowering Sword Momentum entrapped the Flower-picking Ghost Envoy in one fell swoop.

AH!

Piercing screams echoed as the sword qi tore into the Flower-picking Ghost Envoy, inflicting multiple fatal wounds and instantly disintegrating his body into countless pieces.

”Lord Ghost Envoy! How is this possible?”

The people in black under the command of the Flower-picking Ghost Envoy were all shocked and terrified. Ling Chen had killed the Flower-picking Ghost Envoy with a single sword strike, not even leaving him the slightest chance of survival.

”He’s amazing! So this is Ling Chen? He actually killed a Ghost Envoy with a single sword strike, and he’s only sixteen?” one of the young disciples in Xiao Muyu’s team asked, looking at Ling Chen with worship in his eyes.

”Yeah, he’s so domineering! When can I possess this type of strength to swiftly kill these evil demons of the Demon Way!”

”With such strength, he’s just one step away from the Heavenly List.”

Everyone was discussing Ling Chen’s strength, holding him in great admiration.

After the demise of the Flower-picking Ghost Envoy, the remaining people in black scattered in all directions and fled.

Ling Chen walked to the shattered corpse of the Flower-picking Ghost Envoy and picked up the Ghost Envoy Waist Tag lying on the ground.

”Ling Chen, how did you end up here?” Xiao Muyu approached Ling Chen, her face full of surprise.

Ghost Fog Mountain was no ordinary place, she thought. She had planned to complete her mission on the outskirts and leave immediately. However, just as she was about to leave after completing her mission, she encountered the Flower-picking Ghost Envoy. Luckily, Ling Chen arrived in time; otherwise, she would have been in grave danger.

”I had some business to attend to, so I had to come.”

Ling Chen did not reveal his true purpose. After all, he couldn’t tell so many people that he was here to see the Saintess of the Saint Witch Religion.

”Thanks for your help this time. I didn’t expect your strength to have increased so tremendously in such a short period.”

Xiao Muyu had not anticipated that Ling Chen could kill an Expert like the Flower-picking Ghost Envoy so effortlessly. Even during the martial assembly at Chiyu Mountain Manor, Ling Chen had not displayed such formidable strength.

”Alright, if you don’t have anything important to deal with, you should leave this place as soon as possible. There are many Demonic Sect Experts here. If you run into an Elder of the Demonic Sect, it’s going to be troublesome,” Ling Chen warned Xiao Muyu. Even he found Ghost Fog Mountain very dangerous. For Xiao Muyu and her team, who couldn’t even handle a Ghost Envoy, the probability of encountering danger was simply too high.

”Indeed.” Xiao Muyu turned back to the few people behind her. ”You lot, hurry down the mountain and wait for me at the small town a hundred miles from here.”

”Yes, Sister Xiao!”

The young disciples, also aware of their own limitations, bowed to Xiao Muyu before turning and descending the mountain.

”Are you not going with them?” Ling Chen asked, looking at Xiao Muyu, who seemed to have no intention of leaving.

”I’m staying to help you. Don’t you have something important to do?” Xiao Muyu said, holding the Juechen Sword against her chest, showing no intention of leaving.

”Help me?” Ling Chen shook his head. Just as he was about to say more, Xiao Muyu waved her hand. ”Alright, I know why you’ve come to Ghost Fog Mountain.”

She took two steps towards Ling Chen. ”You want to see your mother, the Saintess Royal Highness, right? I know where she is. Don’t you want to see her right now?”

”You know where she is?” Ling Chen’s eyes brightened. He urgently grabbed Xiao Muyu’s wrist. ”Where is she now?”

”If the information is correct, she should be in Black Water Gully to the north. Apparently, she’s teaming up with some Demon Way Experts to capture a Third Grade Peak Exotic Beast, the Great Wilderness Python. Everyone near Ghost Fog Mountain should know about it by now. It’s also rumored that Lu Youzhen, the Sect Leader of the Myriad Dao Sect, is on his way to Ghost Fog Mountain. If he arrives, I’m afraid a big war will break out on Ghost Fog Mountain.”

”If we want to see the Saintess, we must reach Black Water Gully before the war breaks out,” Xiao Muyu said seriously.

”You’re right. We don’t have much time; we must rush to Black Water Gully as soon as possible.” Ling Chen nodded and then looked at Xiao Muyu. ”Do you know the way?”

”Follow me.” Xiao Muyu beckoned with her jade-like hand and then dashed towards the depths of Ghost Fog Mountain.

Ling Chen took a deep breath. He had waited so long and finally saw a glimmer of hope. The truth behind the upheaval at the Divine Intent Sect, which had caused his status to plummet and nearly cost him his life, could finally be revealed.

Thinking of this, he also used his Light Skill and followed.

「At the extreme north of Ghost Fog Mountain, Black Water Gully.」

An bone-chilling white mist constantly rose, condensing a layer of hard ice around the gully.

At this moment, shocking roars echoed from time to time in Black Water Gully, shaking the earth and mountains.

Inside the gully.

Above the gully, four figures stood. Besides Liu Xiling and Xia Ji, the other two also had the Saint Witch Religion’s emblem on their robes; clearly, they were all Grand Master Experts of the Saint Witch Religion.

SPLASH!

The surface of the water below, after a moment of calm, suddenly exploded. A huge python shadow shot out from the water, like a dragon emerging from the depths.

The python was entirely cyan, its scales covered in black and earthy-yellow patterns. Its head bore a sharp, five-inch long horn, emanating an aura that seemed to hail from ancient times.

Third Grade Peak Exotic Beast, the Great Wilderness Python!

The Great Wilderness Python, a powerful Exotic Beast rumored to possess the bloodline of an ancient Xuan snake.

”Take action!”

Liu Xiling was the first to move. She stepped on the air as if it were solid ground and, within a few breaths, arrived before the Great Wilderness Python.

WHOOSH!

A flash of red light glinted in the Great Wilderness Python’s enormous eyes. The next moment, it opened its blood-red, cavernous mouth and sprayed a jet of black, frigid air at Liu Xiling, freezing all moisture in the air into ice crystals that scattered down.

As the frigid air engulfed Liu Xiling, her body was instantly frozen into a lifelike ice sculpture.
