270: Chapter 270 No Weaknesses! Hunting Down the War Emperor is a Tradition

"Crazy, truly crazy!"

To think you can actually unleash another strike of that caliber—the one that bypassed cultivation realms to heavily injure a half-step Upper Earth Supreme in a state of full defense?!

Is this even reasonable?

Is this even allowed?

Is the spiritual energy in your body even enough? Does this even conform to the law of conservation of spiritual energy?

But the reality was that Xiao Ting was indeed mobilizing the spiritual energy in his body to merge with the sword intent.

The previous strike had only consumed a tenth of his spiritual energy; its immense power mainly came from the blessing of laws, the blessing of the world's great power.

Simply put, he had originally only thrown out a hundred grams of iron, but a power beyond normal limits had transformed that hundred grams of iron into a hundred grams of gold.

Its weight and value, naturally, skyrocketed countless times over.

Otherwise, even if he exhausted all of his spiritual energy, he wouldn't have been able to shake Battle Emperor Zhan Huang.

"Madman, he's mad!"

Battle Emperor Zhan Huang felt that terrifying killing intent once more, and he could no longer withstand a few more of such attacks.

"Blood Demon King, this Emperor has already repaid my favor to you. Do not trouble this Emperor again in the future."

Leaving behind these words, Battle Emperor Zhan Huang did something that left everyone dumbfounded, yet felt entirely reasonable: he turned around and fled!

*Rip!*

Empowered by his battle intent, Battle Emperor Zhan Huang executed the Battle Spirit Steps, piercing through countless layers of space as he fled in one direction.

Seeing this, Xiao Ting's eyes narrowed slightly as he switched his target to the Blood Demon King.

Once the Immortal-Slaughtering Sword was drawn, it had to draw blood; otherwise, it would harm its wielder.

A touch of emerald green bloomed between heaven and earth.

No one saw clearly when it appeared, nor when it flew out.

By the time everyone reacted, a green leaf had already appeared on the Blood Demon King's forehead.

In an instant, the terrifying sword intent erupted, surging wildly inside the Blood Demon King's body, destroying, slaughtering, and devouring his physical form, turning it all into strands of nourishment for the Immortal-Slaughtering Sword.

"No!"

The Blood Demon King immediately abandoned his physical body and his Earth Supreme Crystal, leaving only his divine soul to flee, charging straight toward Xue Hezi.

If he had to die, he would let Xue Hezi block everything, while he seized Xue Hezi's body to lead the Blood God Clan once more.

"As expected of the Immortal-Slaughtering Sword. Even if it is just a one-in-a-billion reflection, a mere phantom, it is still terrifyingly powerful."

The Blood Demon King's body collapsed, and the vast majority of his energy was devoured by the Immortal-Slaughtering Sword, with only a tiny thread surging into Xiao Ting's body.

But the power of a mid-stage Lower Earth Supreme, even if only a thread, surpassed a Sovereign Stage expert in both quality and quantity.

Xiao Ting keenly felt his essence, energy, and spirit rising. His Sovereign Body, Eighth-Grade Sovereign cultivation, Ninth-Grade Sovereign Divine Soul, and Supreme Dharma Body were all baptized and enhanced.

This feeling was wonderful; his previous consumption was instantly replenished.

He could completely sustain himself through combat.

"Senior Luo Tianshen, I leave these two Blood God Clan Earth Supremes to you. That Battle Emperor Zhan Huang actually dared to look down on me; I cannot let him off."

Xiao Ting sent a message to Luo Tianshen, put away the Immortal-Slaughtering Sword, and then executed the Law of Heaven and Earth.

In an instant, his body expanded to three thousand Zhang, and his aura surged, infinitely approaching that of an Earth Supreme.

Then, he executed Flying Body Tracing, merging into the void and traveling ten thousand miles in an instant to pursue the West Heaven Battle Emperor.

Luo Tianshen: !

Luo Zhantian: !!

The elders and experts of the Blood God Clan and the Luoshen Clan: !!!

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes—no, even having seen it with their own eyes, they found it somewhat hard to believe.

An Eighth-Grade Sovereign Stage cultivator had heavily injured a half-step Upper Earth Supreme, Battle Emperor Zhan Huang, with a single strike, and then forced a mid-stage Lower Earth Supreme Blood God Clan ancestor to flee with only his divine soul in another strike.

And immediately after, he could actually temporarily boost his power and set off to hunt down Battle Emperor Zhan Huang.

Luo Tianshen and Luo Zhantian were the first to react, the joy in their hearts surging like crashing waves.

As expected of the young man whom their ancestor, Luo Shen, thought highly of and even sent a message for them to befriend. He was indeed terrifyingly strong.

Over the tens of thousands of years since ancient times, they had actually harbored some doubts about the legend of Luo Shen fighting two Serial Heavenly Demon Emperors alone, killing one and injuring the other.

But seeing Xiao Ting's methods now, they believed it completely.

An absolute peerless genius!

"Everyone, attack immediately! Today, we shall suppress and kill or capture all the members of the Blood God Clan!"

Luo Tianshen and Luo Zhantian naturally wouldn't let slip such a golden opportunity.

With the upper echelon of the Blood God Clan wiped out, the rest of the Blood God Clan would be like lambs to the slaughter.

By then, even if the Bone God Clan and the Strength God Clan combined, they would be nothing.

No, even if these two clans joined in right now, there was absolutely no need to fear.

What a joke. Even if the patriarchs of both clans combined, could they block a single strike from little friend Xiao Ting—ah, no, Mr. Xiao Ting?

Having sensed the Earth Supreme battle and rushed over, the ancestors of the Bone God Clan and the Strength God Clan, who were hiding in the dark watching the show, fell silent: "..."

They couldn't block it. They couldn't block it at all. The foundation of the Luoshen Clan was indeed beyond their imagination.

They had better go back right now and prepare to surrender, or perhaps acknowledge the Luoshen Clan as their big brother.

Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of miles away, Battle Emperor Zhan Huang breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes filled with absolute shock as he secretly calculated: 'Where did this monster pop up from? As expected, an Eighth-Grade Sovereign who dares to challenge an Earth Supreme must possess supreme strength; he couldn't possibly be a fool.'

'With such a freak hiding in this Western Heaven Continent, although the War Emperor's inheritance is left here, it's not suitable for me to establish my territory. I can't stay in the western part of the Great Thousand World anymore; I should flee to the east.'

'But before I leave, I must pack up and take the War Emperor's Cave Dwelling with me.'

He had discovered the War Emperor's inheritance when he was a Sovereign. However, that was the inheritance of one of the Nine Emperors of Antiquity; it wasn't something a Sovereign could easily obtain, but rather required passing trials to acquire gradually.

There were five trials in total, and he had currently only passed the second, obtaining the inheritance at the Earth Supreme level.

To break through to the Heavenly Supreme stage in the future, he would still need to rely on the power of the inheritance obtained after the third trial.

Originally, he had thought of establishing a force in the Western Heaven Continent once he became a Heavenly Supreme.

And call himself the West Heaven Battle Emperor.

"Hmm!?"

Just as Battle Emperor Zhan Huang was about to leave, his divine soul suddenly shuddered.

He abruptly turned his head and saw that young man who had terrified him, having transformed into a giant nearly as large as his own Sovereign Celestial Body, striding forward with earth-shaking aura in hot pursuit.

'Damn it, he actually hadn't shown his full strength just now?'

Sensing the aura infinitely close to an Earth Supreme radiating from Xiao Ting, Battle Emperor Zhan Huang felt as if facing a formidable enemy and immediately fled.

If Xiao Ting were to unleash another strike like the one from before, he would definitely not be able to block it.

But to Battle Emperor Zhan Huang's shock, even though he was fleeing with all his might, he actually couldn't shake Xiao Ting off.

A Sovereign who relied on methods to temporarily boost his cultivation actually seemed to have a better grasp of space than him, staying glued to his tail.

During the flight, Xiao Ting would occasionally slash out a sword strike, forcing him to not dare to pause for even a moment.

Thus, for the next half a month.

The Western Heaven Continent, and even several surrounding continents, witnessed an extremely bizarre scene that was bound to spread throughout the entire Great Thousand World in the future.

Battle Emperor Zhan Huang, the half-step Upper Earth Supreme who had obtained the inheritance of the ancient War Emperor and had once suppressed and killed experts of the same realm,

was actually being hunted down by a young man who had reached the peak of the ninth-grade Sovereign Stage through a secret technique.

But that young man's sword strikes were indeed terrifying.

Several Sovereign Stage and Earth Supreme experts went to inspect the places where Xiao Ting had left his sword strikes. Feeling the lingering sword intent that refused to disperse, they all felt their divine souls tremble in extreme terror.

And when the specific details of that battle in the Little West Heaven Realm spread, it caused an even greater sensation.

The name Xiao Ting began to rise in fame, starting from the westernmost edge of the Great Thousand World!
