“This…” Those experts who spoke earlier were all stunned as they stared at the immortal king lying on the ground. There was a wound in the center of his forehead, pierced through by a sharp sword as he died instantly by that single strike.
However, how can this be possible? How did Qin Wentian do this? Earlier in that instant, they all only felt a terrifying sword intent flashing by. That was all to it.
Inclining their heads, all of them stared at Qin Wentian. They could sense the gathering sword might around him, forming into rivers of sword qi. The sword qi river consisted of all types of attribute-energy and what was more terrifying was that there was a tiny sword weaving through the river, incomparably soft and flexible, like a willow branch.
This sword was simply too small, inconspicuous amidst the churning sword qi river. However, all the energy of the sword intent and sword might in the area was concentrated in this sword, terrifying to the extreme.
“Chi, chi…” The tiny sword emitted a shrill noise, flowing smoothly around Qin Wentian. His gaze was extremely fearsome, akin to a sharp sword. As though able to pierce through everything.
“Sage’s sword intent?”
At the side, Feng Qianxue’s eyes were wide open, flickering with a bright light.
The holy will where the majority of the experts from the remnant powers are unable to comprehend was actually so easily comprehended by Qin Wentian. Even sect leaders of the four remnant powers would find it difficult to do so, yet Qin Wentian managed to comprehend a trace of the holy will within such a short period of time.
Her eyes gleamed, staring at the tiny sword circulating around Qin Wentian. This sword was as thin as a willow branch but she understood how tough it is to condense this sword. One had to have extremely high attainments in divine inscriptions and runes, and had to fuse boundless sword intent together with one’s attainments in order to condense such a sword. This was precisely none other than the holy will belonging to the Blackmetal Emperor Sect.
Even though Qin Wentian had only comprehended a trace of it, the power was still extremely shocking, capable of explosively boosting his attack.
“You guys are unable to perceive anything yet you all are still acting so arrogantly, insulting and disturbing me. Simply shameless.” Qin Wentian stared at the other immortal kings. Just casually standing there, his entire being felt like an incomparably sharp sword. He glanced at that expert from the Divine Inscriptions Palace as he spoke, “Aren’t you the one who wanted to kill me when I was cultivating to avoid trouble?”
That immortal king froze. He was a mid-stage immortal king but he had no confidence that he could defend against Qin Wentian’s attack. Especially so after he witnessed how that other expert died earlier. Qin Wentian made him feel a huge sense of threat.
Before this, because he saw that Qin Wentian had comprehended a trace of the holy will, he felt jealous and wanted to make use of the opportunity to finish Qin Wentian off. But now, Qin Wentian wanted to find him for revenge.
“What? You want to battle?” That immortal king from the Divine Inscriptions Palace was still as arrogant as ever. He was, after all, an immortal king character. Although he felt fear, he could still manage to pretend and act calm.
“We have so many experts, it would be a breeze for us to kill you. If it wasn’t for us worrying that the Eastern Tomb would collapse, you would already be a dead man. If you want to start a fight right now, we will act together and snuff out your life in an instant.” The immortal king coldly laughed, showing his stance and telling Qin Wentian that he had many allies.
“Why would fighting against you cause any shockwaves that would collapse the Eastern Tomb? You are overestimating yourself too much. To me, killing you is an effortless thing. But naturally, if your allies don’t care about causing the Eastern Tomb to collapse faster and want to join forces and deal with me, the ball would no longer be in my court.” Qin Wentian stepped out. In an instant, the sword qi river surged forth towards that immortal king from the Divine Inscriptions Palace. The next moment, the sword qi enveloped him completely. The sword qi was extremely precise, controlled perfectly to prevent any aftershocks,
That immortal king howled in rage, unleashing his aura and manifesting a giant cauldron around him to protect himself. Terrifying explosions rang out as the sword river slammed into the cauldron unceasingly.
“DIE!” Qin Wentian waved his hand. That tiny sword weaving about in the sword river directly slashed out. In just an instant, that cauldron shattered, cleaved into two. In the next moment, the body of that immortal king was directly slashed into two, dying right then and there.
The sword intent still persisted, as the sword qi river flowed around Qin Wentian. The short battle ended abruptly and not a hint of the aftershocks had escaped. The other experts all had fear on their faces when they saw this. As expected of the holy will, it was so terrifying and tyrannical.
However, Qin Wentian didn’t stop. He turned his gaze towards another expert from the Vajra Sect. Earlier, this expert had threatened him, telling him not to waste time and even if he did comprehend a trace of the holy will, he would still have to die today.
“Earlier, you intentionally disrupted my cultivation forcefully. You even said that when the time to battle comes, I will be a dead man?” Qin Wentian glanced at that immortal king from the Vajra Sect, his words causing that immortal king to frown as worry surfaced in his heart.
“Regardless what my ending would be, be it comprehending a trace of holy will or dying here today, you won’t be able to see it.” As Qin Wentian’s voice rang out, his figure moved with the speed of lightning, akin to a great roc.
“DIE!” The trace of that sword-type holy will directly slashed out. The immortal king from the Vajra Sect howled, but he had no time left. The sword intent cleaved him into two.
Qin Wentian’s palm snaked out, he wasn’t polite at all as he retrieved the interspatial ring of his opponent.
“IMPUDENT!” Several experts from the Vajra Sect roared in anger when they saw this scene. Killing one of their sect members and looting his interspatial ring before their faces? This behavior was simply too insolent.
“Impudent? So what?” Qin Wentian glanced at them as the tiny sword hummed loudly, revolving around him. “I’ve already comprehended a trace of holy will. I said it before, I wouldn’t cause any damage that would affect the Eastern Tomb even if I acted. But if you guys want to disregard the collapse, I couldn’t care less.”
“Do you know that by doing this, you will definitely form a death grudge with our Vajra Sect?” An immortal king coldly spoke, his eyes burning with anger as his voice boomed like thunder.
“What a joke, how many times did people from the Vajra Sect attempt to kill me? Now, you are telling me about a death grudge? When you guys tried to kill me, why have you not thought about this?” Qin Wentian sneered. He then arrogantly spoke, “Let me warn you guys, if I hear anyone commenting or suggesting ways to act against me when we are in here, don’t blame me for starting a massacre. I don’t give a damn if the aftershocks bring this entire place down on our heads.”
After speaking, Qin Wentian returned to his original location, no longer looking at them. These experts all had ashen expressions, they didn’t expect that Qin Wentian would actually be so brazen, completely disregarding them.
Before the Holy Book and stone tablets, several peak-stage immortal kings frowned when they heard Qin Wentian’s words. However, they didn’t do anything and continued their own comprehensions. Even if they might only be able to comprehend a trace, they didn’t want to miss out on this opportunity. They would temporarily ignore Qin Wentian for now. As long as Qin Wentian didn’t leave their sights, he would be a dead man sooner or later.
The rumbling of the Eastern Tomb grew more and more intense as more black cracks appeared. The stone tablets started shuddering, and everyone knew that the time they had left was extremely short now. Hence, all the experts wanted to make good use of their remaining time.
“BOOM!” A crack directly appeared on a tomb, and the stone tablet behind it almost shattered.
Qin Wentian was contemplating the Holy Book while occasionally glancing at the stone tablets. That trace of holy sword will continued to circulate around him, presenting a strong threat to everyone. The immortal kings here were all shocked by his decisiveness and ruthlessness when he killed those people earlier. None of them dared to antagonize Qin Wentian any further.
Another explosion rang out. A bolt of black-lightning actually shot out from a black crack in the air, blasting into a stone tablet, causing it to shatter into smithereens. Since the stone tablet was already shattered, the holy will in it dissipated. Those who were currently contemplating that stone tablet could only sigh helplessly in response.
Qin Wentian silently contemplated. There were a total of seven astral souls within his Yuanfu, circulating unceasingly around his human-shaped perfect saint-grade immortal foundation. Right now, his immortal-foundation was more sparkling than before. If he unleashed it, it would definitely shock everyone.
At this moment, the law energy within started to congregate together, transforming into sword intent that became the glue to weave the countless divine inscriptions together. A moment later, a fearsome sword intent gushed forth, gathering into a single point as another tiny sword formed, flowing around Qin Wentian’s body.
The two tiny swords revolved protectively around Qin Wentian, causing everyone who saw this to feel their hearts shaking. Has the second strand of holy will been comprehended? Qin Wentian was truly too terrifying.
Feng Zhu drew in a deep breath, incomparably shocked.
The immortal kings from the other remnant powers were shocked as well. All of them had incredibly unsightly expressions.
It was very hard to comprehend the holy will. By being able to comprehend a trace of it, one would already be extraordinary. This Qin Wentian actually managed to deepen his comprehension and form two tiny swords from his understanding of the holy will. Right now, his attack grew even stronger as his strength increased explosively.
With an intention, the two swords transformed into boundless light and tempered his body, causing boundless sword qi to circulate around him. He gave up on this stone tablet as he rushed towards the stone tablet with the tiny pagoda.
The trembling of the Eastern Tomb intensified once more. One of the stone tablets were already destroyed. He had already comprehended the root of the sword-type holy will and he only needed time to further his comprehension in it. However, he still had to depend on the other stone tablets to gain insights about the other holy wills from the sages. If not, things would be tougher by a million times if he depended solely on himself.
This tiny pagoda possessed a suppressive might which has similarities to one of his law-attributes. He hoped that he would also be able to gain some insights about the holy will in this stone tablet.
