As An Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills - Chapter 366
366 Extremely Brutal (1)
On the Saint Cultivation Platform, bloodstains covered the ground, and the air was filled with the stench of death.
Liu Xuantong, the future young master of the Divine Eye Sect, and his three powerful protectors were all killed in an instant.
All the geniuses present had extraordinary backgrounds and were extremely clear about the Divine Eye Sect’s heritage and Liu Xuantong’s strength. Many of them had even fought with him before and knew how powerful and terrifying Liu Xuantong was. He was definitely one of the top prodigies present.
However, Zhang Shan killed Liu Xuantong as if he were a mere bug. He even had the strength to kill the other three. This strength was simply too terrifying, making one’s heart palpitate.
After doing all of this, Zhang Shan still seemed fine and even blocked Bai Xuanruo’s and the other genius’s attacks. There was no fear in his eyes. He was so calm that it was unbelievable. He even took the initiative to provoke them. He was so ferocious that it was terrifying.
!!
“This fellow is either crazy or his strength is extremely frightening. Either way, he has the confidence to remain calm.”
Just his posture alone caused quite a number of people to secretly sigh in surprise. If it were them standing there, it was likely that their legs would have long trembled in fear. How could they still maintain their calm posture?
“If Zhang Shan were to leave the Saint Cultivation Platform alive today, he would become the most sought-after prodigy, and the world would know his name. He would be fought over by all the major sects.”
“However, now he has to face Bai Xuanruo. His strength will be put to the real test now.”
“That’s right. Liu Xuantong is only a genius of the Divine Eye Sect. Compared to the major forces, his foundation is still lacking.”
However, even though many people thought that Bai Xuanruo might be much stronger than Liu Xuantong, and were convinced by Bai Xuanruo’s words, more than half of them did not step forward, afraid that they would be targeted by Zhang Shan.
After all, the scripture could be found again. However, if they lost their lives, there was nothing they could do. Zhang Shan was obviously a lawless and vicious person. Who knew if he would go crazy and kill people? Moreover, no one knew if he had revealed his true trump card. What if he had some other lethal moves? It was all very uncertain.
Therefore, after Jiang Ming showed his unyielding momentum, the situation on the Saint Cultivation Platform was at a stalemate for a while. Many people chose to wait and see.
“Fellow cultivators, don’t provoke that guy!” In front of the geniuses of the Ghost Spirit Sect, Huai Mei warned them in a low voice to not get involved in this matter.
The Ghost Spirit Sect’s cultivation technique was special, and the strength of their divine souls far exceeded those of the same rank. Huai Mei was one of the best among them. She felt that Zhang Shan’s origins were even more mysterious. They had to exercise caution.
Fang Yue of the Mysterious Star Grotto-Heaven also warned his fellow disciples beside him, “Zhang Shan is mysterious. He’s not someone you can afford to offend. Don’t be the one to stand out!”
“But… If we don’t make a move, and if the scripture lands in the hands of the other two grotto-heavens in the future, it will likely backfire on us,” a disciple whispered.
Fang Yue’s eyes were twinkling as they flickered with a mysterious light. “Before I left, the sect master told me that the stars showed that there would be unexpected elements on the Saint Cultivation Platform. It won’t be easy for those guys to join forces to obtain the Saint Cultivation Scripture.”
The other disciples of the Mysterious Star Grotto-Heaven were stunned for a moment before they shut their mouths and stopped questioning him.
The reason why the Mysterious Star Grotto-Heaven could prosper until now was closely related to the astrology techniques of the previous sect masters. No one would doubt it.
Fang Yue’s eyes flickered as he stared at the arrogant figure in the arena. He was wondering whether the unexpected element was him.
“Not necessarily. There are many hidden geniuses this time—that young kid from the Green Feather Cultivation Academy, the person from the Spirit Silkworm Mountain who seems to have experienced the transformation of the death tribulation, and the swordsman from the Immortal Feather Grotto-Heaven.”
Fang Yue sighed. On this trip to the Black Rock Ruins, the various major forces had used all their trump cards. This Foundation Establishment Realm area was only the tip of the iceberg. The competition in other regions was also extremely fierce.
He raised his head and looked further away from the Saint Cultivation Platform. He could vaguely see that behind this towering mountain, dazzling multicolored light flew in the distant sky, containing an aura that made all Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators fear.
“I wonder what the outcome of that Golden Core Realm area is. This battle for the Saint Cultivation Platform needs to end as soon as possible. Otherwise, when the Black Rock Ruins are about to fall, the restrictions will lose their effectiveness and the two areas will be connected. That can be said to be a disaster for Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators.”
While the geniuses of the various sects were having their own thoughts, an inconspicuous figure stood calmly at the back of the crowd, watching the battle. His hands were clenched tightly in his sleeves, and his knuckles had turned white.
“Sir, are you here?”
* * *
“Zhang Shan, don’t think that you’re invincible just because you killed Liu Xuantong. The waters of the world of immortal cultivation run deeper than you can imagine!”
Bai Xuanruo did not care that no one stepped up. He sneered and walked out first, staring at Jiang Ming coldly.
“Friends, since all of you are unwilling to step up, then all of the spiritual light on this kid will belong to me!”
