Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 957: Chapter 957: Human Light Pillar

Although an Immortal-grade Treasure enhanced with a Magic Array was definitely much stronger than ordinary Immortal-grade Treasures, it ultimately couldn’t compare to Divine Artifacts.

His physical body, in terms of defense, had already reached the formidable level of Divine Artifacts—how could he fear the attack of a mere Immortal-grade Treasure?

Moreover, apart from the opponent’s cultivation level, there was nothing else that could surpass him. How could they pose a threat to him?

”You’re going to die either way!”

The Great Steward’s blade grew faster and faster, forcing Ling Xiao to continually retreat.

”Is that so? You really think highly of yourself after receiving a couple of moves from me, huh?”

Shadow Cone!

Suddenly, as Ling Xiao retreated, he thrust out his sword, and the nearly imperceptible Shadow Cone tore through the air.

Initially, the Great Steward didn’t notice anything amiss.

It wasn’t until the Shadow Cone was within one meter of him that he realized something was wrong.

”Feng Yukai!”

In panic, the Great Steward used his life-saving Magical Treasure.

Also an Immortal-grade armor enhanced by a Magic Array.

Boom!

The Shadow Cone struck the Feng Yukai armor and was completely blocked.

However, the terrifying impact hurled the Great Steward back dozens of meters.

”Kid, it was with this move that you killed those slave bosses, right? It’s indeed quite sneaky! If I hadn’t been wearing the Feng Yukai armor, you really might have injured me.”

Having narrowly escaped death, the Great Steward was genuinely taken aback and didn’t dare approach any closer. Instead, from a distance, he concentrated all his Heavenly Origin Power into his blade, attempting to kill Ling Xiao with one strike.

”Feng Yu Ultimate Kill!”

With a thunderous shout, the blade’s energy, carrying a heaven-splitting and earth-shattering momentum, enveloped Ling Xiao, causing the surrounding Martial Artists to instinctively step back, fearing they would be caught in the terrifying attack.

”Light and Shadow Divine Cone!”

Ling Xiao sneered coldly, the Golden Crow Sword in his hand flickering with black and white bright lights, forming a terrifying light cone that instantly tore through the air and pierced directly through the void in front of him.

Boom!

The dreadful Light and Shadow Divine Cone directly scattered the Great Steward’s attack and, without losing momentum, punched a large hole through the Great Steward’s body, before exploding.

Although the Great Steward didn’t completely disintegrate like the Earth Fire Sky Venerate, his corpse was no longer intact, and not even the Great Luo Immortals could possibly revive him.

Having sheathed the Golden Crow Sword, Ling Xiao sneered coldly and then loudly declared, ”Listen up, everyone! The Great Steward of the Crystal Stone Factory has been killed by me. There’s no need to fear any longer. Destroy the Crystal Stone Factory and prepare to make your escape.”

”Kill!”

”Kill, kill, kill!”

This statement had an immense impact on their morale.

The Great Steward was the strongest Martial Artist in the Crystal Stone Factory; now that even he had been killed by Ling Xiao, who else could possibly be a match for Ling Xiao?

With morale ebbing and flowing, their combat strength naturally showed similar fluctuations.

Leng Mei, Meng Tong, and Xin successively defeated their own opponents and returned to Ling Xiao’s side.

”Meng Tong, lead your people and follow me. Xin, you come too. As long as you’re loyal, I won’t hold the past against you.”

After Ling Xiao killed the Great Steward, Leng Mei and the others dealt with the rest of the Five Elements Sky Cultivation Level Martial Artists, leaving only the mopping up work for the Crystal Stone Factory, which was sufficient for the slaves.

Next, what he needed to do was find the place on Pixiu Island where the Heavenly Elemental Crystals were stored. Since they were leaving, why not make a big score?

”I’m willing to follow the master, never to abandon you!”

”Beautiful words are one thing, showing it is another, time reveals a person’s heart. It’s better if I don’t have to lay my hands on you, that would be unpleasant for both of us.”

Ling Xiao glanced at Xin and then, without saying another word, leaped forward.

That place was where the caretakers lived. If there really were Heavenly Elemental Crystals hidden, they would undoubtedly be there.

”Hmm, it should be right there!”

With the Eye of the World, Ling Xiao was exceptional at finding things. In just a moment, he found where the Heavenly Elemental Crystals were stored.

”Probably quite a few, huh!”

Ling Xiao raised his hand and struck out with his palm, his physical strength alone sending the heavy iron door flying open. After all, he had already broken the magic array here, and now, strength took care of the rest.

As the iron door broke open, the light burst forth.

This place indeed stored a vast amount of Heavenly Elemental Crystals, all neatly stacked and clearly marked with quantities.

”We managed to get just over ten thousand Heavenly Elemental Crystals from those few slave leaders, and even adding those from the Great Steward, it was only about twenty thousand! I didn’t expect there to be over two hundred thousand here. No wonder they say Pixiu Island is ruthless; this really is quite ruthless!”

Leng Mei clucked her tongue, shocked speechless by the terrifying amount.

Ling Xiao slightly smiled, ”Doesn’t matter if they are ruthless or not, now it benefits us.”

After he spoke, he waved his hand, and all the Heavenly Elemental Crystals were tossed into the Mountain and River World.

With these over two hundred thousand Low-grade Heavenly Elemental Crystals, he could properly cultivate for a while after returning to the Phoenix Empire Royal City. Catching up to the Ten Great Phoenix Children was not an impossibility.

”Alright, we’ve scavenged it clean, enough to make those guys from Pixiu Island feel the pain for a while. Let’s go!”

Ling Xiao took the Heavenly Elemental Crystals, having achieved his goal, and prepared to leave.

He wasn’t worried about Qin Huo getting into trouble.

Qin Huo was a warrior of Ten Directions Heaven Cultivation, and even on Pixiu Island, people usually wouldn’t provoke him arbitrarily.

Once they got out, they could think about how to contact Qin Huo.

Just then, the entire crystal stone factory suddenly began to shake violently.

Then, a beam of golden light appeared in the center of the factory. This golden light quickly transformed into the figure of a young man wearing a python robe and a gold crown tied up in a bun.

Judging by his age, he looked around thirty or forty years old, much older than Ling Xiao, but younger than most martial artists.

Maybe it was because this figure was so imposing; many of the fighting slaves fell to their knees.

”Young Island Master!”

”Spare our lives, Young Island Master!”

”It’s not our fault. We were incited by others and launched the rebellion in confusion. We won’t dare again, please forgive us!”

”Fools, daring to start a rebellion. If I don’t punish you heavily, how can I justify it to the dead disciples of Pixiu Island!”

The person-shaped light bellowed, spreading a terrifying aura, causing many martial artist slaves to tremble in fear.

”Playing tricks and pretending to be gods, you soul body dare to posture here!”

Ling Xiao appeared in front of the humanoid light column, scoffing, ”Not to mention you, a mere soul body, even if your Young Island Master were actually here today, what could you do to me?”

”Bastard, how dare you seize our Pixiu Island’s Heavenly Elemental Crystals and destroy our crystal stone factory; you will regret this!”

The humanoid light column roared.

”If you hadn’t mentioned it, I almost forgot. This dangerous place is better off destroyed sooner!”

Ling Xiao suddenly scoffed coldly, beginning to condense Heavenly Origin Power.
