Ling Tian Sword God

Chapter 1303: Chapter 1302: Disgraced

Facing the terrifying fire claw that rushed toward him, Ling Chen seemed utterly unperturbed, his eyes filled with a distorted killing intent, completely isolated from the outside world.

A murderous aura surged from Ling Chen’s body.

Kill!

Kill everyone in the world who should be killed!

Kill everyone in the world who is hateful!

Under the intense fluctuations of his own situation, Ling Chen’s killing intent was stimulated to the utmost at this moment!

”Die!”

Huo Lingzi’s fire claw drew within three feet of Ling Chen, ready to tear his body apart!

Yet, just as it seemed Ling Chen was about to be slain, his eyes suddenly lifted, and a killing intent surged forth from them. In the next moment, a black shadow filled with the aura of slaughter suddenly projected in front of Ling Chen.

As the figure coalesced, the shadow reached out, abruptly grasping the fire claw of Huo Lingzi. Under the focused gaze of many, the hand clenched abruptly, shattering the fire claw!

”What?”

Seeing his fire claw crushed, Huo Lingzi’s eyes were flooded with shock. As the lord of Desolate Fire City, a superpower, a casual strike from him could easily kill a mid-rank Saint. Yet this shadow had crushed his move?

”General Bai?!”

Upon seeing the shadow, Ling Chen was stunned for a moment before recognizing the figure as none other than General Bai.

However, this General Bai was no physical form, only a manifestation of will, and Ling Chen hadn’t expected that General Bai, when imparting the killing intent, left behind a powerful consciousness here.

”Kid, lucky for you I left a backup, or else you’d have been doomed today.”

General Bai turned, glanced at Ling Chen, then said no more, suddenly reaching out to draw the Soul Destroying Sword from Ling Chen’s waist. A terrifying aura of dread emanated from the sword.

”The Sword Saint’s sword is hard to wield, but there’s no better choice, so temporary use it is.”

General Bai muttered to himself, then his gaze suddenly fixed on Huo Lingzi in front, eyes erupting with killing intent. In the next moment, the Soul Destroying Sword in his hand struck violently, a hundred-zhang sword shadow of destruction tearing through the sky, slashing through Huo Lingzi who couldn’t react in time.

Crack!

Huo Lingzi’s Protective True Qi was shattered by the sword, his body shot out like a ping-pong ball, smashing through a mountain, creating a large hole, and the mountain collapsed entirely.

”How could that be?”

Xuan Wuye and the Wind Empress were horrified as they watched the scene. Huo Lingzi’s strength wasn’t much weaker than theirs, yet he was sent flying by this shadow in a single sword slash, his Protective True Qi shattered, almost killed—what was the origin of this shadow?

”It’s General Bai, the guardian of the Emperor’s Tomb!”

Princess Mingzhu and Elder Len called out in surprise. They had seen General Bai in the Emperor’s Tomb before and recognized him immediately, though they couldn’t understand why he appeared here, nor why he’d save Ling Chen.

”Damn! This kid is so lucky to have received General Bai’s inheritance?”

Seeing Huo Lingzi being blasted away, Saint Qian Yan almost coughed up blood. Just as Ling Chen was about to be slain on the spot, General Bai appeared to pull him back from the Gate of Hell.

Having sent Huo Lingzi flying with a sword, General Bai intended to strike again and finish him off, yet his body quickly faded in that brief moment, his aura plummeting to a pitiful weak state.

General Bai’s eyes held a trace of helplessness as he looked at Ling Chen, ”I wanted to eliminate this threat for you, but unfortunately, the power of this manifestation is limited to helping you this far.”

”Senior’s great kindness, I will remember forever,”

Ling Chen bowed solemnly to General Bai. Without his help, he might already be a corpse. He didn’t expect General Bai to leave such a safeguard for him before disappearing, making Ling Chen feel deeply grateful.

As Ling Chen finished speaking, General Bai’s figure completely dissipated, and the Soul Destroying Sword lost its luster, dimming and falling back into Ling Chen’s hands.

Rumble!

Just as General Bai’s form vanished, the ground not far away exploded, and Huo Lingzi’s body emerged from within.

Yet, Huo Lingzi appeared extremely disheveled, his once majestic red robes now in dozens of tattered strips hanging on his body. If he hadn’t wrapped his lower body in time, he’d be utterly disgraced.

As the lord of Desolate Fire City, a master of a super sect, when had he ever suffered such humiliation?

Pfft!

In a fit of anger, his meridians in chaos, combined with his severe injuries, Huo Lingzi spat out another mouthful of blood.

Seeing Huo Lingzi’s disheveled state, many surrounding experts displayed incredulous expressions. But even more surprising to them was Ling Chen. First, he burst forth with astounding power, sending the demon-might-filled Dao Yi True Immortal flying, and just now, even though it was General Bai’s doing, it was all Ling Chen’s influence.

This kid is truly extraordinary...

Though enraged, Huo Lingzi couldn’t escape the shock; the previous strike hadn’t taken his life, for his Saint Body had reached a sixth-tier strength, possessing formidable self-healing ability. To kill him in one blow would require terrifying power, yet that sword had posed a grave threat, severely damaging his Saint Body and even wounding his soul.

If there were a second sword, he couldn’t guarantee his own survival.

So when he saw General Bai’s figure fade from Ling Chen’s vicinity, he exhaled a sigh of relief, thankful that the manifestation’s power was limited and had dissipated. Otherwise, he might have abandoned his dignity to flee.

”Damn brat, forcing me to such a state...”

Glaring at Ling Chen, Huo Lingzi’s heart filled with malice. Thought he could easily squash the ant, yet he was such a big fall, losing face before so many sect experts. Unless he suppressed and tortured Ling Chen to death, his heart wouldn’t find peace.

Swish!

Huo Lingzi’s form suddenly shot forward, determined to see who would save the brat now!
