Translator: _Tat_  Editor: Rundi

Inside the dense forest, Ling Xian acted as if he had just awoken. He rose slowly with enough energy to astonish the world and split open the sky!

The two Immortal Bones shone through and emitted an infinite amount of heavenly light. They appeared as bright as the Sun and transformed the night into day time.

“This is!”

The cultivation leader’s expression changed and he croaked out, “The Immortal Bone! You have two pieces of the Immortal Bone?!”

The Immortal Bone is one of the mysterious energies of the world. They are similar to the Inner Eyes but in terms of rarity, they for sure rank higher than the Inner Eyes.

This is because it is something that could only be formed after a cultivator reaches the foundational level or above. Plus, being above the foundational level only gives one the possibility to form the immortal bone – it is not a guarantee. From this, it is apparent just how difficult it is to grow this.

However, once grown, the cultivator gains access to an extreme skill.

Though every single Immortal Bone is unique on its own, according to ancient legend, even the worst of them have extremely powerful skills!

This was why after seeing the two Immortal Bones, the cultivation leader’s expression changed so drastically!

“You sure do know your stuff.”

Ling Xian grinned softly. Complemented by the immortal bones, he mimicked a God who was sitting above the clouds and peering down onto the world.

Even before the battle against the cultivation leader, Ling Xian knew that he was no opponent and that his only ray of hope was the Immortal Bone.

However, the Immortal Bones were in the middle of growing. Out of desperation, he had to feed the Holy Spirit Water that he was saving for Ling Tian Xiang to the Immortal Bones. With the liveliness from the Holy Spirit Water, the speed of the bone growth increased by 10 folds and finally shone through at the last second!

“It is no wonder that you were able to kill an original leveled cultivator while still being in the completion level. So you have reached the undefeatable realm of the foundational and completion level. You even got yourself the Immortal Bones.”

The cultivation leader appeared extremely jealous. It was already good of him to reach the undefeatable realm of both the foundational and completion level. In addition to that, he somehow got the legendary Immortal Bones. Anyone would be jealous of this!

If this news gets passed around, countless people would go insane from jealousy!

“The reason why I was able to remain calm is that I knew I wasn’t going to lose.” Ling Xian smiled modestly. He was confident.

He already knew the two Immortal Bones’ abilities and it shocked even himself. Therefore, he firmly believed that he could stop the cultivation leader.

“So what you have the Immortal Bones? You and I are fundamentally different. The gap between us cannot be overcome with techniques!”

The cultivation leader stared deadly at Ling Xian. There was jealousy, anger, and some fear.

After all, Ling Xian was already plenty strong himself. With the support of the Immortal Bones, how much more power will he have?

“Then come and try.”

Ling Xian’s lips curved up and he summoned silently to absorb the two Immortal Bones into his two arms.

Immediately, a giant gush of wind rolled up to the sky and erupted in all four directions. The earth shattered and the heaven shuddered!

“So what you have the Immortal Bones? Today, I am going to break those bones and kill the Heaven’s Favorite!”

The peak leader shouted out loud and an infinite amount of energy exploded around him. He carried a thousand ton of force with him!

This was his full blast strike and it was a critical strike!

Against this earth-shattering strike, not only did Ling Xian’s expression remain unchanged, a smile curled up to his lips instead.

One has to admit that the cultivation leader was very powerful and his blow was powerful as well. If this was before, Ling Xian would have been completely destroyed. There was no other possible outcome.

But that was before. The him right now didn’t think anything of this punch!

He called out to the Immortal Bone’s abilities in his right arm. Then, he called out to the Disorder Conquering Fists and immediately, everything within eight miles crumbled and the earth was shocked.

This punch unlocked all the possibilities and power that weren’t there before. The force of all of this increased by at least 10 folds compared to before.

HOMMMMM!

After this one punch, the cultivation leader lost all his composure. No matter how much he tried to defend, he could not defend against Ling Xian’s current powerfulness and was immediately slammed back.

Retch!

After puking out a mouthful of blood, the cultivation leader’s eyes filled with surprise. His shock reached a point of no reparation!

Not even in his dreams did he think that Ling Xian’s punch would increase in power by 10 folds. He did not think that he would not be able to even defend against one punch!

“You had so much fun beating me up just now right? It is my turn now.” Ling Xian marched forward one step and within seconds, he appeared before the cultivation leader.

Immediately, two fists like dragons thrust out of their homes and landed on this person’s chest!

The power of this punch truly was 10 times stronger than before and instantly made the peak leader puke out fresh blood and made his face appear pale.

“Dammit, how do you have such striking capabilities? Your strength match up to those of the beginning stage of the original level!”

The leader stumbled back quickly. His face was full of awe and fear.

Remember that he was a powerhouse at the intermediate stage of the original level. Yet now, before his eyes, he couldn’t even defeat against one move. What did this mean?

It meant every punch thrown by Ling Xian was of the intermediate stage of the original level. And Ling Xian was stronger than him!

Why wouldn’t this surprise him? Why wouldn’t he feel afraid?

“Cultivation leader, to be killed by my Immortal Bones is nothing to be ashamed of.”

Ling Xian raised his right leg high and it shone with light. Similar to a dragon’s tail, he moved aggressively!

He didn’t apply too much pressure with this leg, however, the cultivation leader was still flung out. Then, Ling Xian began a violent and stormy sequence of attacks.

Fists, arms, legs… anything that could be used to attack, Ling Xian used them to his advantage. Every single time a body part of his landed on the enemy, there was a crisp noise of bones breaking.

Crack, crack, crack.

The cultivation leader was puking out blood and his bones were being crushed. However, he still could not do anything to fight back!

However many times he hit Ling Xian before, Ling Xian was returning them!

Every single strike was extremely aggressive and violent. They made the cultivation leader’s face paler and paler, and his breathing was getting weaker and weaker.

This made him fill up with fury and humiliation. However, he was helpless because he had no way of fighting back!

It wasn’t that Ling Xian was striking with 10 times his original power with every strike. It was that after every four to five strikes, Ling Xian would suddenly hit him with a move that was 10 times his original power level. Therefore, how could the leader defend?

“Cultivation leader, let me send you on your way.”

Ling Xian spoke slowly and summoned his Hand of Breakage and aimed at the leader’s right arm.

“Ah, Ling Xian, I want you dead!”

The cultivation leader shrieked out. The pain had deformed his face. He knew very well that only if he fights with all he’s got will he be able to break free from Ling Xian’s grasp.

Therefore, without considering the cost, he began to burn the original leveled energy that was between his brows.

Instantly, a giant wave of spiritual energy dissipated throughout the area. The power of it was shocking and it shattered the ground!

Against this move, Ling Xian remained unfazed. He made his moves with lightning speed and slammed three times on the cultivation leader’s body. Then, he placed his fists next to each other to once again displayed the ability of the Immortal Bones!

The Disorder Conquering Fists was an unparalleled technique and shone brightly when used by the Untainted. This move alone made millions of Clans helpless. Today, under the support of Ling Xian’s Immortal Bones, this move was unimaginably strong and had enough energy to break the earth in half!

HOMMM!

After a loud rumble, Ling Xian’s two fists displayed their strength. With raw power, they managed to shred the space into pieces and diminish the Cultivation Leader’s strongest attack!

Retch!

After puking out a mouthful of blood, the leader acted like a broken-stringed kite. First, he stumbled back for hundreds of yards and then he powerlessly collapsed onto the ground.

Next, a giant foot the size of a small mountain stomped on his chest, once again forcing blood out of him.

“The winner and loser have been determined. I have won after all.”

Ling Xian spoke expressionlessly. His right foot remained on top of the cultivation leader’s chest. He seemed like a God who sat above all nine levels of heaven, peering down onto the mortal world.
