Nine Yang Sword Saint

Just like what Leiming had said. After Yang Dingtian had taken Xiangxiang Beila as his wife, he would then murder Zhuri Beila with his unpredictable ability. There might even be a possibility of Zhuri Beila becoming a puppet.

 Yang Dingtian had no choice but to admit Leiming’s way with words.

 When Leiming noticed that everyone’s complexion had changed, including Zhuri Beila, he spoke, “I know that because of this human’s slander, I will not be able to stay in the Foxman Race anymore. However, before I leave, I would like to leave behind a piece of sincere advice. Adoptive father, Na Lu is too unpredictable. For the sake of Foxman Race, you should confine him immediately. Furthermore, cripple his martial arts. This way, you will be able to exploit his rebirth ability and not become a threat to the Foxman Race. Of course, doing so might go against your ethics. But for the sake of Foxman Race’s future, the adoptive father will have to look at the bigger picture.”

 At this moment, Yang Dingtian’s complexion had truly turned unsightly. This Leiming was truly unordinary. Even at this point in time, he was still thinking of ideas to free himself and cause Yang Dingtian’s death. Furthermore, it was apparent that his words moved the majority of the Foxman Race’s elders.

 A moment ago, they learned that Yang Dingtian was the Concoction Master in the Sea of Hades. Since he owned a precious treasure, he was chased out of the human continent as he came to the East Parting Grassland without anyone to rely on. Therefore, Leiming’s proposal was definitely feasible, which enticed all the Foxman Race’s elders completely.

 When Leiming saw his words moved everyone, he continued his instigation, “Everyone, don’t be frightened by this human’s nature. Indeed, his treatment ability is unpredictable. However, his martial arts ability is just ordinary and couldn’t even be compared to mine. His ability is just saving others while his cultivation is very ordinary. If you don’t believe me, I’m willing to compete against him and prove it to everyone that this person is not terrifying at all.”

 At this moment, Yang Dingtian had a whole new level of respect for this person. This person’s scheming strategy was indeed very powerful. He knew how to break apart the fearful appearance of Yang Dingtian through the foundation.

 When Princess Xiangxiang Beila saw how Leiming had distorted the truth, her body trembled from anger and was about to scold him loudly. She wanted to say that Yang Dingtian didn’t take advantage of her and didn’t take her innocence. However, Yang Dingtian glanced at her to stop her.

 After hindering Princess Xiangxiang Beila, Yang Dingtian turned around and smiled at Leiming, “What’s your cultivation?”

 Leiming smiled coldly, “According to your human class, 8-star Martial Ancestor class.”

 Yang Dingtian replied, “You think that I’m weaker than you?”

 “Correct. Some of your abilities are indeed unpredictable. However, your martial cultivation is extremely ordinary. You are even weaker than me at this age.” Leiming smiled.

 “You want to compete with me?” Yang Dingtian asked.

 “That’s right.” Leiming smiled coldly, “I want to expose you.”

 “Good!” Yang Dingtian spoke, “Originally, I had a treasure sword. However, I lost it when I was departing from the human continent. I will use this cane to fight with you.”

 Yang Dingtian raised the iron rod on his hand.

 Immediately, everyone was astonished. Leiming’s blazing sword was an extremely formidable weapon in the Foxman Race. Meanwhile, the iron rod in Yang Dingtian’s hand didn’t even possess any energy fluctuation. It was absolutely the crudest and stiff iron rod.

 The iron rod on Yang Dingtian wasn’t an ordinary iron rod. Rather, it was the reformed Ah Chou youngling sword. Before Yang Dingtian had devoured and refined the Mystic Flame, the youngling sword still possessed a trace of energy fluctuation. Now, the youngling sword was already impervious to its surroundings and had accumulated all the energy within him.

 Therefore, in everyone’s eyes, Yang Dingtian’s weapon wouldn’t be able to withstand a blow against Leiming’s weapon.

 “You are looking for death. Don’t blame me.” Leiming smiled coldly, “A moment ago, you were able to avoid my sword beam. Now, I’m going to use mystic skills to attack you. Try dodging it.”

 Yang Dingtian shook his head, “It’s really an insult to me to make a move against the people of your level. How about this, I will stand here motionlessly. You can use your strongest mystic skill to attack me.”

 “Tsk tsk, pretentious.” Leiming smiled.

 The complexion of everyone present at the scene changed slightly. Leiming was an 8-star Martial Ancestor class. He would injure even Martial Supreme class experts if they weren’t going to move and let him attack them.

 Subsequently, Leiming lifted his sword and positioned it erected like a tree. He chanted a rhyme and circulated his mystic qi.

 Immediately, the sword in his hand brightened up suddenly.

 “Buzz…” Immediately after, a phoenix imprint suddenly appeared on his arm.

 He was going to use his martial soul!

 This was the first time Yang Dingtian met an opponent that was going to use their martial soul. At that time in Qin City when he was fighting against Ye Feng, Ye Feng had utilized an evil technique. Therefore, he didn’t use his martial soul.

 This Leiming before him was planning to use his martial soul.

 Everyone’s complexion changed when they saw Leiming’s martial soul.

 This Fire Demon Phoenix was at least an eighth or ninth grade demonic beast. It was extremely formidable and rare. How could Leiming have the ability to refine a demon phoenix into his martial soul? This was completely impossible.

 At this moment, Zhuri Beila’s expression had also slightly changed. He had no idea that Leiming possessed a demon phoenix martial soul. Furthermore, it was clearly impossible for him to take the demon phoenix as his martial soul with his own ability alone.

 In fact, the majority of the Foxman Race possessed the demonic beast’s blood vessels. However, there were only a few of them who possessed a martial soul. And it was even rarer to find one who possessed a flying mount because the majority of the Half-Human Race lacked the spiritual talent, and there wasn’t any Beast Speaker.

 The Half-Human Race was extremely polarized when it came to spiritual talent. Individual races like the Eight Talons Human Race possessed an almost astonishing spiritual talent. Furthermore, the majority of the Half-Human Race was deficient in spiritual talent.

 Zhuri Beila managed to possess a Raging Flame Demonic Flood Dragon martial soul under a fortuitous encounter. However, as the Foxman Race’s princess, Xiangxiang Beila still didn’t possess her own martial soul. Thus, Leiming shouldn’t have one either.

 But now, Leiming unexpectedly possessed a Fire Demon Phoenix martial soul. This was impossible, and it was apparent that there was something amiss going on here.

 However, even if they don’t speak of what was amiss here.

 Once a martial artist possessed a formidable martial soul, their attacking power would completely be incomprehensible.

 Leiming was an 8-star Martial Ancestor class. With his Fire Demon Phoenix martial soul, his attacking power would be equivalent to two 8-star Martial Ancestors.

 Therefore, his attack this time would undoubtedly be extremely astonishing.

 ***

 Along with the influx of mystic qi, Leiming’s sword had already grown extremely red. Furthermore, the Fire Demon Phoenix stripe on his hand grew brighter overtime. Ultimately, it was as if his whole arm had been ignited.

 “Hu…” Subsequently, a flaming demon phoenix suddenly bore out of Leiming’s arm and entered his sword.

 “Boom…” Instantly, the sword combusted.

 A tremendous amount of energy exploded.

 “Boom…” The boulder constructed room suddenly broke apart as rocks splattered everyone.

 Zhuri Beila used his mystic qi to protect his daughter immediately.

 Everyone’s complexion changed. Leiming’s mystic skill power had greatly exceeded their imagination.

 Meanwhile, Yang Dingtian couldn’t help but be shocked. Originally, he thought that he would be able to withstand against Leiming’s 8-star Martial Ancestor mystic skill. Now, he started to get worried.

 “Demon Phoenix Split Heaven Arrow, die…”

 Along with Leiming’s roar, a huge flaming demon phoenix suddenly flew out from the sword. His whole body immediately became a large flaming illusion bow. A blood-red colored flame energy arrow condensed in the air.

 He was about to use the Fire Demon Phoenix martial soul as his bow and his whole body as a mystic qi arrow so that he could launch a fatal attack against Yang Dingtian.

 “Swoosh…”

 The Fire Demon Phoenix bow was pulled to its limit, and the huge dazzling arrow shot out suddenly.

 Immediately, the huge arrow turned the surroundings of where it went through into fine powder like a shooting star.

 “Ah…” Princess Xiangxiang Beila cried out. Suddenly, she pulled Zhuri Beila’s arm.

 Although Foxman Race chieftain Zhuri Beila had yet to recover his mystic qi fully, he started to circulate his mystic qi and was about to envelop Yang Dingtian body with it.

 However, something unexpected happened. Zhuri Beila’s mystic qi was like mud sinking into the ocean as it disappeared from the atmosphere silently.

 Who was it? So strong that it could cause a Master class expert’s mystic qi to feel like it had submerged into the ocean.

 It was at this moment, the shocking Demon Phoenix Split Heaven Arrow suddenly pierced Yang Dingtian’s body and exploded a ball of light as if it wanted to devour everything.

 “Ah…” Everyone cried out. They felt that the astonishing medical expert would be annihilated without any remnant left behind.

 When the demon arrow entered the body, Yang Dingtian lifted the remodeled youngling sword iron rod and circulated the third rank of Pig Slaying Sword Art, the Fire Transformation Art of Yin Yang Qi Transformation Technique.

 “Boom…” At the same time, the Mystic Flame within Yang Dingtian’s qi vessel suddenly soared and entered into the Fire Transformation Art.

 Previously when Yang Dingtian used the Fire Transformation Art, it would only be able to dissolve half of the mystic qi that was equal to his cultivation. In other words, if his enemy were a 3-star or 4-star Martial Ancestor expert, then Yang Dingtian would be able to use the Fire Transformation Art to dissolve all the energy from the attack.

 Now that Yang Dingtian possessed the Mystic Flame, he wanted to try if he could dissolve an 8-star Martial Ancestor mystic skill attack. Unexpectedly, the attack before him was not only from an 8-star Martial Ancestor expert, it was together with a Fire Demon Phoenix martial soul energy.

 Therefore, Yang Dingtian had no idea if he could dissolve it at all. This would all depend on the Mystic Flame’s might.

 “Hu…” The Demon Phoenix Split Heaven Arrow’s terrifying energy penetrated the youngling sword first.

 The youngling sword itself was also able to devour the fire attribute energy. However, it could only devour 15 percent of formidable fire attribute energy. The remaining energy poured into Yang Dingtian’s body frantically.

 Yang Dingtian felt his body tremble as if a bomb had exploded within his body.

 Immediately, Yang Dingtian was engulfed by the flame.

 At the same time, he circulated the Fire Transformation Art.

 “Whoosh…”

 Instantly, Yang Dingtian was able to sense that this formidable energy was being devoured rapidly as it was turned into the purest form of mystic qi and poured into his qi vessel.

 Immediately, an astonishing scene appeared.

 The flame on Yang Dingtian grew smaller and smaller.

 After mixing the Fire Transformation Art with the Mystic Flame, it dissolved the Demon Phoenix Split Heaven Arrow energy frantically.

 Three seconds later.

 More than half of the demon arrow’s attack energy had been dissolved and devoured.

 Yang Dingtian used his Nine Yang Mystic Meridians and received the remaining 30 percent of the mystic skill energy.

 He felt that all of his mystic meridians trembled as acute pain spread out, causing him to almost vomit a mouth of blood. However, Yang Dingtian swallowed it back.

 Just like this, the flame on Yang Dingtian’s body had completely extinguished.

 Yang Dingtian didn’t dodge or move as he withstood the combined assault of an 8-star Martial Ancestor mystic skill together with a formidable martial soul without any injuries.

 Immediately, Yang Dingtian was astonished in his heart. The Mystic Flame’s power was indeed terrifying.

 An 8-star Martial Ancestor expert was already stronger than Yang Dingtian. Adding on the power of Fire Demon Phoenix and Demon Phoenix Split Heaven Arrow, the resulting power was three to four times stronger.

 Without the Mystic Flame, Yang Dingtian would at most be able to dissolve one-tenth of this energy.

 However, after possessing the Mystic Flame, the Fire Transformation Art’s might had risen drastically several fold. Unexpectedly, it had dissolved half of this Demon Phoenix Split Heaven Arrow’s energy.

 The Mystic Flame’s power was truly too terrifying. After possessing it, just the Fire Transformation Art alone had increased exponentially.

 ***

 From the outsider’s eyes, it was extremely shocking.

 Everyone was able to see Yang Dingtian standing there clearly. After such a formidable Demon Phoenix Split Heaven Arrow pierced into his body, it disappeared without any trace like the mud entering the ocean.

 They had no idea that Yang Dingtian had circulated his Mystic Flame and Fire Transformation Art. They only saw Yang Dingtian standing there motionlessly and let the attack assault him freely.

 Immediately, everyone was speechless. What cultivation realm was Yang Dingtian in? Such a formidable fusion of mystic skill together with the martial soul couldn’t even make him budge.

 Meanwhile, Leiming seemed as if he had seen a ghost. Previously, after the brief combat, he was very certain that Yang Dingtian’s mystic qi cultivation was certainly incomparable to his. How did he suddenly become so terrifyingly strong? Originally, he was confident that this Demon Phoenix Split Heaven Arrow would be able to kill Yang Dingtian immediately. Who knew that the other party could actually withstand it without budging. Furthermore, it didn’t even leave behind any injuries. It didn’t even harm a single thread of his hair.

Immediately, Leiming was terrified. He glanced towards Ge Lu.

 This person before him immediately became extremely mysterious and formidable.

 “Was that all?” Yang Dingtian smiled nonchalantly.

 Leiming nodded his head instinctively.

 Yang Dingtian flung his sleeve slightly, “Sure, it’s my turn now.”

 Immediately, Leiming’s body tensed up. He held onto his sword tightly with both his hand and circulated all his mystic qi to protect himself.

 He was truly afraid. He had no idea what kind of world-shaking attack Yang Dingtian would use. Therefore, he had utilized all his strength to defend against the upcoming assault.

 Everyone present had also held onto their breath and waited for Yang Dingtian’s world-shaking assault. Even Ge Lu had also coagulated his gaze and was waiting for Yang Dingtian to make his move.

 Yang Dingtian sighed slightly, “Leiming, fighting against you is really an insult to me.”

 After Yang Dingtian spoke, he brandished his iron rod slightly. It didn’t contain any strength or might. It was so weak that it wouldn’t be able to chase a housefly away.

 Nothing happened. There wasn’t any world-shaking scene developing.

 Everyone had their gaze fixated onto Yang Dingtian’s hand and the iron rod. Leiming was also staring at Yang Dingtian in fear.

 “What are you looking at? I have already launched my attack.” Yang Dingtian replied nonchalantly.

 He already made his move? It wasn’t awe-inspiring at all. Why wasn’t anything happening?

 Everyone present was greatly disappointed. What was it? He had just brandished the iron rod on his hand weakly. Yet he claimed that he already made a move. There wasn’t any mystic qi or flame shooting out.

 Was Yang Dingtian letting Leiming off?

 Leiming mumbled, “He already finished his attack. It couldn’t even tickle me.”

 After circulating his mystic qi around his body, Leiming discovered that he didn’t even lose a thread of hair. Leiming couldn’t help but relax when he heard that Yang Dingtian had finished his attack.

 “Haha, everyone had seen it. This human was just putting forth an act. His cultivation is extremely mediocre and knew that he couldn’t injure me. Therefore, he had purposely acted magnanimous and let me off. He deliberately brandished his iron rod unenthusiastically so that he could maintain this expert posture of his.” Leiming smiled coldly, “The reason why he was able to withstand my mystic skill wasn’t that he was powerful. Rather, it was because he was wearing some sort of treasure that can defend against my attack. His cultivation is actually extremely weak. Otherwise, he would have made his move to kill me. Now, I’m starting to think that the reason he could save the adoptive father was because of some sort of treasure. It was basically not his ability at all.”

Yang Dingtian glanced at Leiming before replying casually, “You’re overthinking.”

 Subsequently, an astonishing scene unfolded once again.

 A trace of black smoke suddenly emitted out from Leiming’s body. Subsequently, thin layers of flame bore out from his stomach.

 However, Leiming was unable to sense any pain. He didn’t even discover it and was still speaking as he belittled Yang Dingtian unbridledly.

 Meanwhile, everyone was completely stupefied when they stared at his stomach.

 “Bam…” It was only until Leiming’s stomach had been fully combusted and burnt did he discover that his body was somewhat empty. He couldn’t help but look down.

 Instantly, Leiming was convulsing.

 “Ah…” He issued a world-shaking miserable scream.

 “Boom…” At the same time, a lump of flame suddenly started to combust as it engulfed Leiming.

 Leiming collapsed onto the ground with a loud bang while he screamed horrendously. He had died!

 Everyone’s complexion had turned deathly pale as they looked at Yang Dingtian with a gaze that was filled with fear once again.

 How strong was Yang Dingtian?

 Not only was his medical treatment unpredictable, but his killing moves were also even more unpredictable.

 He had merely brandished the iron rod on his hand lightly. There wasn’t any mystic qi and seemed like it couldn’t even chase a housefly away. However, the person he attacked had their qi vessel burnt. It was only after his stomach had been combusted before he had discovered all this. Subsequently, after the flame had fully engulfed him, he died immediately.

 Such an attacking way was truly too terrifying. It caused them to tremble with fear.

 Of course, the scene might look extremely mysterious. In reality, it wasn’t as mysterious as it seemed to be.

 It would appear that Yang Dingtian had brandished his iron rod softly. However, this was actually done with all his strength. Furthermore, it was done on top of the Mystic Flame’s fatal attack.

 He had utilized the fourth style of the 8th-grade mystic skill Devil Flame Saber Art, Birth of Heart Devil.

 The 8th-grade mystic skill Devil Flame Saber Art only had a total of three styles and this fourth style was a secret technique. The three styles before were already stronger than the latter. When he was fighting against Ye Feng, Yang Dingtian had merely used the first style, Blazing Violent Saber, to destroy Ye Feng.

 Meanwhile, this fourth style, Birth of Heart Devil, couldn’t be cultivated by and used by the majority of martial artists as the requirement of mystic meridians to do it was extremely high.

In the past, the might released from this technique wouldn’t be very strong. However, it was different now. After possessing the Mystic Flame, this Birth of Heart Devil style was as if it were personally made for Yang Dingtian.
