Chapter 377: Famous
The outcome of the battle had surpassed everyone’s expectations.
In less than 15 minutes, the three Mounted Bandits that had returned to the city were already dead with their blood staining the long street.
There were even two seven meridian Foundation Establishment Cultivators among them!
That final thunder slash was an eyeopener for many cultivators as they felt an incomparable shock both visually and mentally.
Countless gazes were fixed on that figure on the long street, wielding a saber and stained with blood. Their expressions were complex; some shocked, some fearful, some in awe and some in scrutiny.
Instantly, everyone realized that from this day forth, there would definitely be a place for this man in Xuantian City!
He was now famous after a single fight!
This was something that the disciples of Elixir Yang Sect had not expected.
Tang Yu was originally waiting for the prearranged timing to charge in with the cultivators under her charge and rescue Su Zimo’s group.
However, nobody expected the situation to turn entirely in the blink of an eye!
Both Mounted Bandits were dead!
“This…”
Despite his experience and calmness, Uncle Liang was stunned.
A five meridian Foundation Establishment Cultivator had killed two seven meridian Foundation Establishment Cultivators on the spot – they were a full two cultivation realms above him!
This wasn’t the first time that Uncle Liang had come across a paragon talent as such. However, people as such were extremely rare and usually belonged to the top factions of Tianhuang Mainland.
What was the background of Su Zimo?
He was not even carrying a sect badge so he definitely wasn’t a legacy disciple of the super sects.
Furthermore, there were no traces of techniques inherited from super sects and top factions from Su Zimo.
For super sects such as the nine immortal sects, seven fiend sects and the six Buddhist monasteries, each of them had their own cultivation techniques and secret skills that their disciples were bound to use in life and death bouts. As such, they were easily recognizable.
However, Su Zimo’s capabilities…
While his pair of spirit wings were extraordinary and his sword formation was stunning, none of them were the key to why he was able to kill cultivators above his level.
The reason why that person was able to kill beyond his level was entirely because of that terrifying physique that resembled a pure-blooded ferocious beast!
In Tianhuang Mainland, there were not many sects that specialized in body tempering among the immortal, Buddhist and fiend sects. Glass Palace was one of them but it was clear that this man had nothing to do with them.
Could there be hidden sects or reclusive masters apart from the top factions who could groom such a terrifying paragon?
Yet, why was the cultivation technique that could build such a physique unknown?
For the first time, Uncle Liang felt that he could not make out Su Zimo anymore.
Right then, a decisive look flashed through Tang Yu’s eyes as she waved and said in a deep voice, “Elixir Yang Sect, listen up! Follow me and kill the survivors of the Four Mounted Bandits. Leave no one alive!”
Before she finished speaking, Tang Yu was the first to summon her flying sword and charge into the battlefield.
Uncle Liang did not have time to think and quickly followed.
The thousand odd Elixir Yang Sect cultivators at the back swarmed forward as well, charging towards the remaining desperadoes.
Although the desperadoes did not fear death, the death of Chai Li and Hu Meng was still a huge blow to them mentally.
Coupled with the intense battle that they had just been through, they were thoroughly exhausted. The assault of the vigorous cultivators of Elixir Yang Sect engulfed them entirely.
Some of the desperadoes broke down and shrieked while running out of the city. However, they barely took a couple of steps when they were killed on the spot.
One side was severely injured and worn out while the other side was filled with life and vigor – it was obvious who was stronger!
The outcome of the battle was already decided.
With the death of the two seven meridian Foundation Establishment Cultivators, Elixir Yang Sect no longer had any reservations.
On the long street, Ji Chengtian, little fatty and Shi Jian collapsed sitting on the ground, laughing out loud.
Their laughter tugged at the wounds on their bodies and the three of them gasped in pain. However, they continued laughing non-stop.
With Xiaoning’s support, Leng Rou managed to stand barely.
At that moment, there was a rare smile on her face that was extremely captivating.
“We survived?”
Shi Jian scratched his head and looked at Ji Chengtian and little fatty, smiling foolishly in disbelief.
“That’s right!”
Ji Chengtian let out a long breath and lamented, “We survived!”
“The feeling of being alive is f*cking great!” Little fatty cursed and beamed brightly.
When they returned to Xuantian City, the four of them had already cast aside all thoughts of surviving.
Now that they were celebrating the joy of surviving the calamity, every single breath felt incomparably blessed.
After this battle, the friendship between the four of them changed considerably. This was a friendship forged through life and death and the baptism of blood – it was extremely precious in the cultivation world.
Looking at this scene, Su Zimo smiled faintly and a warm feeling surged into his heart, remaining for a long time.
Unknowingly, the heavy rain had stopped.
The storm came and went quickly. The dark clouds dispersed and sunlight spilled onto the long street and the five of their faces, radiant with life.
It wasn’t only Su Zimo. From this day forth, the other four of them were going to be famous throughout Xuantian City as well!
As Elixir Yang Sect took action, the other factions joined hurriedly as well. Thousand Crane Sect, Puppet Sect and some cultivators of different factions all wanted a piece of the pie.
Suddenly, a black-robed cultivator walked over slowly. Wielding a bone spear that had vague blood traces, he was extremely terrifying!
He arrived before Su Zimo and stood still.
The actions of the black-robed cultivator attracted countless gazes.
“It’s him! The fiend heir of Malevolent Earth Sect!”
“What does he want?”
“I don’t know. He doesn’t seem friendly.”
Ji Chengtian and the others were no longer smiling, looking grim.
They could sense a strong and dangerous aura coming from the black-robed cultivator!
This man was… extremely strong!
In fact, a thought crossed their minds – even if they were at peak condition and joined forces, they were no match for this person!
The black-robed cultivator glared at Su Zimo for a moment without saying anything.
Su Zimo was expressionless.
“Very good.”
The black-robed cultivator nodded and declared proudly, “I am Xue Yang, the fiend heir of Malevolent Earth Sect. You are very decent. I’ll give you a chance. Join Malevolent Earth Sect and be my personal bodyguard!”
Ji Chengtian and the others were stunned.
One of the seven fiend sects, Malevolent Earth Sect!
This was one of the top factions of Tianhuang Mainland, but it was a fiend sect and was different from their Dao.
Furthermore, this fiend heir of Malevolent Earth Sect was arrogant and commanding in his tone. He even had a condescending attitude that was truly unpleasant.
Ji Chengtian and the others looked at Su Zimo nervously.
Given their understanding of Su Zimo, there was a high chance that the latter would reject the fiend heir of Malevolent Earth Sect.
However, given the fiend heir’s temperament and methods, he would definitely turn murderous and attack Su Zimo once he was rejected!
After that intense battle, Su Zimo was now at his weakest – how could he be a match for the fiend heir of Malevolent Earth Sect?
Was he going to meet with another calamity after surviving a life and death battle?
True enough.
Su Zimo smirked. “What’s Malevolent Earth Sect? I haven’t heard of you guys. Also, fiend heir of Malevolent Earth Sect? What the sh*t? What’s so great about you?”
All the cultivators were shocked when they heard that!
Many cultivators looked at Su Zimo as though they were looking at a dead man.
In truth, Su Zimo was not spouting nonsense.
Back then, a fiend heir of Malevolent Earth Sect died in his hands!
In the fiend sects, every cultivation realm could only have a single fiend heir.
Therefore, if Su Zimo hadn’t killed the previous fiend heir of Malevolent Earth Sect, this Xue Yang would not have been able to get his current position!
