* Boom! *
Ji Zhen's aura instantly surged, slightly bending space while powerful blasts of air inflicted damage.
"This... isn't this beyond the Golden Core realm?"
An exclamation filled with terror and fear was heard as Ji Zhen raised his aura.
"Just because you're only Half-Step from entering the Nascent Soul realm, did you think you're invincible in this place?"
Ji Zhen coldly snorted, his gaze full of contempt on Ling Tian and said.
"Oh? So what if you are in front of me? I am still invincible!" Ling Tian smirked slightly.
Ji Zhen's gaze was cold and murderous for a long time, with layers of energy bursting around him.
Then suddenly, Ji Zhen's cold expression turned calm and showed a gentle smile.
Ling Tian raised his eyebrow when he saw the sudden change in Ji Zhen's expression. What was he up to?
"You know?" Ji Zhen finally spoke in a soft voice and said with a smile, "There are experts who can kill you with a single thought when they reach a certain level, and I am one of them!"
* Boom! *
The wind swirled around Ji Zhen as his smile transformed into an evil and cold grin!
"Soul Skill?" Ling Tian looked with slight interest at what Ji Zhen wanted to do. The energy Ji Zhen was gathering clearly felt very different from when one circulated one's own cultivation essence, as if it was coming from somewhere else.
Clearly Ji Zhen wanted to do a soul skill.
"Not good!" Feng Xiao tried to move when he saw this, but was interrupted by Shin Wei.
"What are you doing brother? That guy is a Nascent Soul realm cultivator and wants to use a soul skill on senior brother!" Feng Xiao glared at Shin Wei for stopping him and quickly said.
"Soul Skill?" Li Fengyuan blinked in shock when she heard this.
Soul Skills can only be used from the Nascent Soul realm onwards, when one manages to open their Knowledge Sea!
Although Soul Skills are very rare and hardly ever used on enemies with the same realm, they are still powerful on inferior cultivators.
And now there was an enemy cultivator in the Nascent Soul realm and wanted to attack Ling Tian!
"Calm down. Master will be fine. Even if there was an enemy at the Great Ascension state he would still be fine." Shin Wei shook his head and said with a small smirk. Even experts who had reached the peak of mortal cultivation in this world would not be a threat to Ling Tian. Besides, if there was a problem, Shin Wei would move to help Ling Tian.
His gaze rose slightly in the sky and after a few seconds he lowered it.
'Even if a cultivator in the Great Ascension state comes, he would still be fine?' Li Fengyuan couldn't quite process what he had heard and turned to look at Shin Wei, wanting to see if he was joking.
A cultivator with a Great Ascension base is an expert who has reached the peak in this world!
They are powerful and amazing powerhouses who can easily rule the skies!
And now, these people even disdained these powerhouses? What was wrong with them? Where did they get that courage, confidence or arrogance to say that?
"Hell's Hammer!"
Ji Zhen cruelly shouted as he burst into Spiritual Energy and locked Ling Tian with it.
"A low level skill..." Ling Tian looked with slight interest as he saw a giant hammer of over five meters appear in front of him, falling towards his head.
If this hammer fell on anyone else below the Nascent Soul realm, they would become an idiot. This hammer would attack the Knowledge Sea and try to destroy it, thus also turning the person into an idiot or at best kill them.
"Hahaha! Now you will become an idiot for the rest of your life!" Ji Zhen laughed wildly.
The soul skill that Ji Zhen had used several times in the past had left his enemies as idiots and stupid for the remains of their lives.
Ling Tian looked at the hammer that fell on him, wanting to interfere with his Consciousness Sea. A faint smile formed on him.
The giant Hammer of about 5 meters seemed to enter another dimension, running into his Consciousness Sea, striking down without hesitation.
However, the Giant Hammer did not even last a second when it tried to enter Ling Tian's Consciousness Sea.
Ling Tian's Consciousness Sea remained calm, without any movement that could disturb it or even move the Spiritual Energy within it a little. Only the little sprout that was in the center and it kept growing, feeding itself and making Ling Tian's Consciousness Sea grow at the same time.
"Huh?"
Ji Zhen was dumbfounded as he felt his skill cut off and his Spiritual Energy vanished like nothing else. A trace of fear and chill began to wash over him as he saw Ling Tian's slight smirk.
"What happened?" Li Fengyuan looked at Ling Tian was fine and couldn't process what happened.
"You..." Ji Zhen's voice began to tremble as he saw that Ling Tian was in perfect condition.
"You wanted to turn me into an idiot? Then I'll give it back to you!" Ling Tian lifted the corner of his mouth as he extracted a pinch of his Spiritual Energy.
Ji Zhen felt a chill for the first time as he felt his soul attack disappear easily!
"You are also a Nascent Soul realm cultivator!"
Ji Zhen didn't think twice and escaped in the direction where the city lord, Feng Rao, Feng Xuang, Simu Houcheng and Long Yin were, trying to use them as a shield while thinking of a way to escape. Ji Zhen was not really sure of Ling Tian's cultivation level and had assumed that he was below him, but when he felt his Spiritual Energy disappear and saw Ling Tian's smile as he gathered the same Spiritual Energy, Ji Zhen knew that Ling Tian's level was higher than him and could not see it at all.
However, Ling Tian simply smiled and formed a simple small sword with his Spiritual Energy.
* World Sword *
This technique was a low level soul skill that Ling Tian remembered. A technique for anyone to train and begin to learn by using Spiritual Energy once they opened their Knowledge Sea. The ultimate goal of the technique was to achieve forming a sword to open and break the enemy's Knowledge Sea, that way they could have a better ability to control the Spiritual Energy.
But in Ling Tian, such a simple soul sword would be deadly even for great Experts.
"My father is the younger brother of the leader of the Ji family! If you do so, then the whole Ji family will look for you and you will be dead! Your whole family will be dead! Our ancestor has just broken through to the Separation and Reunion realm and will be able to crush you like an ant!"
When Ji Zhen felt the alarms of life and death the greatest in his entire life, he tried to stop Ling Tian by using his identity again. He no longer had that arrogant young master demeanor anymore.
"I told you. Even if they are experts from the Great Ascension realm, I still wouldn't care... even the Great Emperor of the Immortal realm wouldn't dare to be arrogant in front of me..." But Ling Tian merely said indifferently. The Spiritual Energy of his Knowledge Sea mobilized and a small sword formed, directing it towards Ji Zhen.
"The Great Emperor of the Immortal realm? You're crazy..."
Ji Zhen only managed to mutter these words dumbfounded before he felt a powerful sword easily tear like paper through the defense of his Consciousness Sea, tearing and shattering all the Spiritual Energy.
* Crack! *
The sound of a small artifact was heard just as the World Sword destroyed Ji Zhen's Consciousness Sea.
Then, a powerful soul force burst out from Ji Zhen and disturbed even the very space around.
"Who dares to touch my son?"
An old but powerful and commanding voice was heard throughout Ronchen City.
