Chapter 3709: Kill one as a warning to a hundred others

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The blue-robed middle-aged man charged over, and once again stretched out a hand to deliver a palm strike at Ling Han. Boom, this time, multiple golden patterns appeared in the force, and there was an aura that surpassed Foundation Building Tier.

He was at the Cauldron Forging Tier.

Though this place suppressed cultivation level, when a Cauldron Forging Tier was here, the power he could unleash was only Foundation Building Tier peak stage. However, Cauldron Forging Tier was still Cauldron Forging Tier, after all, so it still had some advantages. For example, he could use the Celestial Cauldron that he had formed inside his body.

This aura was the Celestial Cauldron showing its might, forming an aura that surpassed the Foundation Building Tier, and could effectively suppress the Foundation Building Tier.

If this aura were in the outside world, 90% of the Foundation Building Tier cultivators would lose their battle prowess once they unleashed this aura. This was the suppression of the level of being. It was like a wolf that had encountered a tiger, and could only tremble in fear.

This place suppressed cultivation level, so the might of the Celestial Cauldron wasn’t as great. However, it still had a certain amount of deterrence power against Foundation Building cultivators. At the very least, it could reduce the battle prowess of Foundation Building cultivators by 20-30%.

This was also why the middle-aged man in blue dared to attack Ling Han.

Ling Han nodded, and said, “You’re from the prison, right?”

As he spoke, he replied with a punch of his own. His aura was steady, and was completely unaffected by the Celestial Cauldron.

Just how terrifying was the foundation stone of the Celestial Path that he had built? Even the heavens would unleash their might to erase it, so how could it possibly be suppressed by a mere Celestial Cauldron?

It could be said that while a Saint’s aura could easily kill Ling Han, but even if the Great Emperor appeared, Ling Han still wouldn’t yield.

That was because his Celestial Foundation was incredibly sturdy, and no one could hope to shake it.

Boom!

The two of them exchanged blows again, and it was still a tie.

The blue-robed middle-aged man revealed an expression of confusion and shock. Ling Han was actually unaffected by his Celestial Cauldron, and his battle prowess hadn’t weakened in the slightest?

It was too strange.

The Celestial Cauldron’s pressure on Human Dao Foundation was the greatest, followed by the Heavenly Dao Foundation, and if it was an Ultimate Dao Foundation, the effects would be very small.

But no matter how small it was, it would still have an effect. How could it possibly be like how Ling Han was completely unscathed?

He forcefully suppressed his shock, and said calmly, “That’s right. I come from the prison, and in my eyes, you’re nothing but trash. If it weren’t for Chen Fengyan protecting you, would you dare to strut around in front of us?” “You’re wearing some rare treasure, aren’t you? You’re actually unaffected by the Celestial Cauldron!” he couldn’t help but ask.

When these words were said, the people in the ancient battlefield all looked tempted.

A rare treasure that could resist the Celestial Cauldron’s oppressive might? That was really too practical.

To say nothing of this place, if they encountered a Cauldron Forging Tier cultivator after they left, that would be equivalent to having an additional chance of escaping. That was because the moment the Celestial Cauldron appeared, it would directly suppress the essence of life. Foundation Building Tier cultivators might feel their knees go weak, and not even be able to think of running for their lives.

Ling Han naturally wouldn’t say that this was because his celestial foundation was based on the ancient Celestial Gate, which even the heavens envied, so it was naturally awesome.

“I’ll send you on your way!” he said solemnly. His figure charged out, and the Demonic Monkey Fists was unleashed. His fists were wrapped with the Heavenly Dao Flames, and with the combined attacks of 108 overlapping layers of power, just how terrifying was the power of this combination punch?

Boom, boom, boom, punch after punch, incinerating the heavens and obliterating the earth.

The blue-robed middle-aged man’s advantage was all in the Celestial Cauldron, but the suppression of his cultivation level was completely ineffective. In truth, he was no different from an ordinary Ultimate Dao Foundation. Under Ling Han’s powerful suppression, his disadvantage was extremely great.

In this perilous situation, he felt extreme regret. If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have jumped out.

“Do you regret it now?” Ling Han asked calmly. “Unfortunately, it’s too late!”

Faced with such ridicule, the middle-aged man in blue couldn’t help but blush. However, his life was in danger, so how could he still care about his pride? He hurriedly said, “Stop! Stop! I’ll immediately surrender to the Dark North Nation. You can’t kill me!”

Ling Han sneered, “Unfortunately, I am not the Department Chief of the Foreign Affairs Department of the Dark North Nation now. I am just an ordinary adventurer. Whoever wants to kill me, I will destroy them. Even if the Heavenly King comes, it would be useless!”

He attacked aggressively, and in just a few moves, the blue-robed middle-aged man was blasted into smithereens.

Seeing this scene, everyone shook their heads. Presumably, even if the man in blue died, he would be filled with regret, right? If it was in the outside world, it would only be a matter of a single thought for him to kill Ling Han, but now, he had been killed by Ling Han instead.

Adventuring in the Mystery Realm was just that dangerous. Those with higher cultivation levels could also die in the hands of those with lower cultivation levels.

Ling Han swept an eye over the surrounding people, and asked, “Who else wants my head?”

Everyone acted as if they had not heard him, and went off to do their own things. If they nodded, that would be equivalent to making an enemy of Ling Han. That was definitely not allowed, but if they shook their heads, that would be equivalent to bowing their heads to Ling Han. They could not bring themselves to do so, so they could only pretend that they had not heard anything.

Ling Han walked in the ancient battlefield. The sunlight was clearly dazzling, but because there were bones all over the ground, it gave off a sinister feeling.

He also looked at the Battle Armors and weapons, and shook his head. They were all in tatters, and could not be used at all.

Continuing onwards, Ling Han wanted to see what lay at the end of this ancient battlefield.

He quickened his pace, yet gave a muffled humph, and immediately stopped.

Ling Han lowered his head to take a look. There were a few more rips on his clothes. Those had been torn open by the air after he had just sped up.

How could the air possess such terrifying destructive power?

As Ling Han walked, he secretly experienced it, and enlightenment rose up in his heart. It was not the sharpness of the air, but rather that there was a kind of killing intent in the air. If one rubbed against it intensely, it would cause a very great destructive effect.

He activated the Starlight Screen and slowly sped up. However, he was only able to reach double the speed of sound, and he had already reached his limit. It was as if there were countless invisible blades in the air, and in an instant, the Starlight Screen was torn apart.

Ling Han slowed down slightly. The Starlight Screen’s energy consumption was coincidentally equal to his rate of recovery, so he was able to maintain the effects of the Starlight Screen at all times.

Soon, the sun set in the west, and the sky began to darken.

It was unknown which corner of the galaxy this was. Though the sun could be seen, the moon did not exist. Thus, when the sun had disappeared from the horizon, the whole world had instantly become dark, with only stars scattered here and there, exuding a faint brilliance.

‘Hmm?’

Ling Han suddenly stopped in his tracks. He could sense a strange aura.

However, the surroundings were completely silent, so how could there be anything strange?

Ling Han trusted his instincts very much. He activated his eye technique and looked around again.

After advancing into Celestial Path, his eye technique had also improved astonishingly, being able to see through all illusions, and see through the fine details, immediately discovering what was strange.

In the heaven and earth, multiple auras rose, like smoke.

Ka, a soft sound rang out. If Ling Han hadn’t been completely focused, it was very likely that he wouldn’t have heard it, and even if he had heard it, he might have directly overlooked it.

But now, he activated his eye technique and looked in that direction.

A shocking scene appeared. A corpse was slowly getting up. It had one leg broken, but it was still supported by a rusted saber. It stood up with its other leg. Weng, two balls of dark flames popped up in its eye sockets.

Er, he had to be seeing things.
