Chapter 1456: Undying Body
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
Qin Wentian infused his sword intent into the stone formation, transforming into a sword formation to kill a peak-stage immortal king. His expression had no change and was still as calm as ever. Those thin swords swam around in the sword qi river and returned to Qin Wentian side. The stones and rocks around him all glowed with runic light as law energy was fed into Qin Wentian’s sword formation unceasingly.
Not long after, another expert arrived. His eyes instantly erupted with killing intent when he saw Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian wasn’t polite at all, stabbing out with his finger, the tiny swords that were swimming like fish, directly shot towards his opponent, exploding forth with a startling sword intent, simply unblockable. The mid-stage immortal king couldn’t even withstand a single strike and died instantly.
As more and more experts arrived, the people Qin Wentian killed gradually got more and more. The ground was soon littered with corpses.
Mo Lanshan was one of the experts hunting Qin Wentian. When he arrived here, his expression was incomparably ugly. He saw that several disciples of the Sacred Sun Sect had all died here, being killed by this man.
“You are actually proficient in formations too.” Mo Lanshan’s eyes flashed with a strong killing intent. His eyes were like the sun, radiating flames. His law energy enveloped the area around him, wanting to turn everything into ashes.
Qin Wentian was proficient in formations. He borrowed the energy within the chaotic stone forest to kill his fellow disciples in the Sacred Sun Sect and the experts from the remnant powers of the Eastern Tomb.
Behind Mo Lanshan, another expert came by. This immortal king who just arrived was someone from the Vajra Sect. He was similarly shocked when he saw this scene and his expression turned ashen.
“Given your talent, there’s no way you are a nameless individual. Who are you exactly?” Mo Lanshan asked. “Even if you don’t say anything, it wouldn’t be a difficult thing if my Sacred Sun Sect wants to investigate. Even if you die here, I will know who you are eventually.”
“Eastern Regions, Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect, Qin Wentian.”
Qin Wentian spoke. “In the Desolate Mountain Range, atop the Demongod Mountain, the people from your Sacred Sun Sect had already antagonized me. I killed them all, including a saint child from your sect. To think that right now, there are even more members of the Sacred Sun Sect dying to my hands in this stone forest. Tell me, do you think that this is laughable?”
“So it turns out that you are him. The person who’s highly regarded by the Evergreen Immortal Emperor, and the person who was the trigger for the adjudication battle.” Mo Lanshan was familiar with his name. Although he was in the very far away central regions, he had to still know the great events that were happening around the immortal realms due to his status as a saint child. In addition, he had to know all the famous characters and names of the major powers too. Qin Wentian was someone that was extremely infamous recently in the eastern regions, he would naturally have heard of this name before.
“I’m Mo Lanshan, a saint child of the Sacred Sun Sect.” Mo Lanshan slowly spoke. “Although you have the backing of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor, considering how many people from my sect you killed, I would still have to kill you.”
“Yet another saint child? Why is each and every one of you so filled with confidence only to die in the end?” Qin Wentian sarcastically replied.
“You will soon see how wrong you are.” Mo Lanshan didn’t say anything more. His eyes erupted with fiery might and in an instant, a solar storm manifested. Many sun vortexes appeared in the air, wanting to incinerate everything. All of them then blasted towards the direction of Qin Wentian.
Qin Wentian stared at the incoming attacks while feeling somewhat taken aback in his heart. As expected of a peak-stage immortal king saint child character. This expert truly did have some capabilities, possessing incredibly strong innate techniques.
“Go!” Qin Wentian waved his hand. The sword qi river surged forth, engulfing towards that solar storm. The flames were smothered, as the thin swords erupted with overwhelming might, ripping through everything as they flew towards Mo Lanshan.
“You’ve comprehended the holy will?” Mo Lanshan coldly laughed. His eyes gleamed with a terrifying light. He folded ancient hand seals as a dazzling sacred sun sword appeared in his hand. The sun sword instantly manifested a screen of sunlight that enveloped him protectively. The tiny swords were actually unable to break through it.
“Explode!”
Mo Lanshan coldly shouted. The solar storm that was being engulfed by the sword qi actually directly exploded. The destructive energy permeated the atmosphere as the battlefield turned into a scene from an apocalypse. Qin Wentian’s body was actually right in the center of this explosion.
Qin Wentian’s body shimmered with a flawless immortal light. His palm pressed forward in the air as the nine strands of sword holy will intensified, forming a screen of swords that revolved around him, tearing apart everything that got close to him.
“Break!” Mo Lanshan roared again, the sunlight from him expanded in scope, burning through everything. He rushed forward, entering Qin Wentian’s sword formation. A fearsome whistling sound echoed through the air as fissures appeared on the ground. He was incomparably domineering, directly walking towards Qin Wentian. As a peak-stage immortal king saint child character of the Sacred Sun Sect, his combat prowess would naturally be tyrannical. Even though Qin Wentian borrowed energy from the formations here in the chaotic stone forest, he was still confident that he could kill Qin Wentian.
Staring at his opponent approaching him, Qin Wentian’s expression was extremely cold. When the sacred sun sword slashed over, he took out a tiny pagoda. The holy will of the pagoda instantly blasted out as a heaven-suppressing might bore down on everything in the area.
Qin Wentian stood up, walking forward with no fear at all. The boundless sword river flowed endlessly around him, the sword intent congregated into the form of a sword as it slashed towards Mo Lanfeng.
Mo Lanfeng’s eyes gleamed with a terrifying light. Numerous sun vortexes blasted out, protecting him. Although he was suppressed by the tiny pagoda’s effect, he continued to move forward. The two of them moved towards each other, wanting to kill the other.
“I want to see what your source of confidence is exactly, daring to fight with me like this.” Mo Lanshan roared. For immortal kings, the closer you got to them, the stronger the effect of their law domain would be. Their bodies were bodies of laws, the root of their law energy. The intensity of the energy output would naturally be the greatest in their immediate surroundings.
“My confidence stems from my ability to kill you.” Qin Wentian calmly spoke. There was no fear on his face, only an unbreakable resolution. It was like he would be victorious for sure.
“You overestimate your sword formation.” Mo Lanshan spoke as he continued advancing. This entire space was too terrifying, as though kissed by the sun. Qin Wentian’s body was scorching red, looking like it was on the verge of cracking from the heat.
Qin Wentian didn’t say anything as he moved towards his opponent as well. The suppressive might from the tiny pagoda gushed forth, affecting the movement of his opponent.
An expert from the Vajra Sect also arrived at the area. When he stared at them, he felt his heart trembling when he saw their combat. If he was in the place of Mo Lanshan, he would have already died to Qin Wentian. He didn’t even have the qualifications to participate in a battle of this level.
When they chased after Qin Wentian, none of them expected Qin Wentian to be so powerful. If Mo Lanshan really dies in Qin Wentian’s hands, there would be no one else powerful enough to stop Qin Wentian.
Finally, the two of them were at a close enough distance. The light screen around Qin Wentian seemed to be cracked, baked by that intense heat. He was in the inner area where the solar storms were the fiercest. Mo Lanshan howled with anger, “GO TO HELL!”
As the sound of his voice faded, the sun vortexes all erupted completely, their destructive might engulfing everything.
A light of intense coldness flickered in Qin Wentian’s eyes. The nine strands of sword holy will slashed out, converging into one at this moment. A piercing sound echoed out as a hole appeared in Mo Lanshan’s head. A moment later, his head directly exploded. He didn’t even have the time to scream and was directly killed just like that.
Naturally, Qin Wentian was in dire straits as well. The destructive energy tunneled into his body, the heat was so intense that the color of his skin had turned completely red, looking like he was about to burst into flames.
“Both of them perished?” That Vajra Sect’s expert stood far behind as he spoke in a low voice. Such an ending was truly shocking.
However, at this moment, he noticed Qin Wentian’s eyes turning over to him. That gaze shone with a fearsome light, coldly surveying him. His heart pounded fiercely. After that, he only saw the injuries on Qin Wentian’s body gradually recovering, akin to the true body of a fiendgod.
“Impossible!” That Vajra Sect’s expert exclaimed in shock and disbelief. Qin Wentian’s gaze was so bone-chillingly cold, radiating an intense killing intent.
That expert shouted loudly, “An undying body? How can this be?” After that, he immediately turned around and fled.
The leading character this time around from the Sacred Sun Sect, the Saint Child Mo Lanshan, really died a pointless death. Qin Wentian was actually still alive.
Staring at the fleeing figure, Qin Wentian’s aura gradually retracted, as a look of weariness was visible on his face. His silhouette flashed as he continued on his way, preparing to leave this chaotic stone forest.
“Your actions would undoubtedly cause a great deal of trouble for me. Are you leaving just like that?” A voice suddenly rang out in Qin Wentian’s mind. His spirit trembled for a moment, after that, he replied, “Senior, junior was helpless, I had no choice but to do so. I hope that senior can forgive me.”
“How did you gain such high attainments in the dao of formations?” That voice asked.
“The dao of formations is the same as the dao of cultivation. Everything springs from the same origin source. Since I have insights in the dao of cultivation, I would naturally have insights in the dao of formations as both of them are connected.” Qin Wentian replied.
“Great answer. You can leave now.” That voice was ethereal, and after that, a pathway actually appeared within the chaotic stone forest.
“Many thanks, senior.” Qin Wentian clasped his hands and bowed. After that, his silhouette flashed as he followed the pathway out.
After he left, an old man appeared from the depths of the stone forest. This person was none other than the Chaotic Stone Immortal Emperor. He stared at the departing figure of Qin Wentian as a slight smile could be seen on his face.
“The experts from the Sacred Sun Sect and the other powers were killed by someone in my chaotic stone forest. But what does this have to do with me?” He laughed aloud and a moment later, the formation changed and the atmosphere turned tranquil once more. Very quickly, those who were still alive, were all pale with fright when they saw the corpses in the area.
How imposing their group was when they soared through the air, intent on hunting down Qin Wentian? To think that so many of them would actually fall to him?
“Even Mo Lanshan was killed.” There was someone staring at a headless corpse has he spoke. Mo Lanshan was a saint child of the Sacred Sun Sect, a peak-stage immortal king with extraordinary strength and status. Yet, he actually died in here. Sword intent could still be felt from his corpse. Very clearly, he was killed by someone using a sword.
“What should we do?” Someone asked.
“Let’s bring his corpse back and report the truth to the higher-ups.”
Everyone sighed in their hearts. They stared into the distance with their thoughts in a whirl!
