Chapter 1134: Blood Boiling with Indignation
Whoosh!
The saber ray swept out from the Silver Thug's hand. Along with a force that could split a mountain in half, it set off a crisp, ear-piercing saber swishing as it hacked down towards Feng Tian Wu who was standing in the distance.
"Die!" Just as the saber ray was rushing downwards, a cold gleam shot out of the Silver Thug's eyes as he shouted out loud at the same time.
At once, many people on the swift boat squeezed their eyes shut.
They felt that Feng Tian Wu would definitely die and they could not bear to watch her being killed.
However, very soon, their eyes shot open swiftly again because they did not hear any gory squishing from the Silver Thug's saber at all.
They were incredibly perplexed.
When they opened their eyes, what they saw made them stunned in bewilderment.
Dear Lord!
Wasn't this too far-fetched?
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, a purple figure stood in front of the Silver Thug who had just attacked, and one of his hands was gripping on to the grade two spirit saber that fell from the Silver Thug's hand.
At the same time, the saber ray that shot out of the grade two spirit saber was forced to retract. In the end, it entirely retreated into the spirit saber and scattered away.
"H-How is this possible?!" Staring at the purple-clad young man who had just grabbed his grade two spirit saber empty-handed, not needing the slightest effort, the Silver Thug was utterly baffled.
Actually, it was not only him.
Other than Feng Tian Wu and Xiong Quan, everyone on the swift boat, including the Gold Thug and the other Silver Thug, were all staring at him with their mouths gaping.
Standing from afar, Feng Tian Wu stared at the purple figure that had his back towards her. A gleam flashed across her autumn eyes, a glow that was as gentle as water.
Whenever she fell into critical circumstances, he would definitely appear.
She felt safe and secure as long as he was there.
"Be careful, Third Brother!" Soon, the Gold Thug returned to his senses. As his face darkened, his body flashed out like a gust of wind as he charged towards the purple figure standing in front of the Silver Thug.
However, would he be able to make it?
Boom!
Almost at the moment when the Gold Thug made his move, Duan Ling Tian flicked his hand and snapped the grade two spirit saber that was in the Silver Thug's hand away. With a slap of his hand, he slammed forwards towards the Silver Thug's chest.
Fused Profundity!
At the same time, a five-colored energy streak soared out from Duan Ling Tian's hand and landed on the Silver Thug's body like crashing dried leaves, shattering his internal organs and sending him flying backward.
The Silver Thug was sent flying in the direction where the Gold Thug was flying from. For a moment, he was caught by a horrified Gold Thug in a wretched manner.
"Third Brother! Third Brother!" The Gold Thug looked at the Silver Thug who was no longer breathing in his arms as he shrieked out loud in an ear-splitting pitch.
"Ahhhh!" Right at this moment, the other Silver Thug screeched in pain. The death of his twin brother stabbed his heart like a knife, leaving him with piercing anguish.
Boom!
Just as the Silver Thug whose forehead was oozing with cold sweat and whose eyes were crimson red returned to his senses, the Origin Energy skyrocketed from his body, transforming into a milky-white flame that was followed closely by Profundity and Concept.
The next instant, his entire being flew out and raced towards Duan Ling Tian agilely like a cannonball that was being shot out.
Whoosh!
Like his twin brother, the saber that he used was a grade two spirit saber as well.
Right now, because of the death of his twin brother, he had completely lost all sense and reason, not caring whether he was strong enough to kill Duan Ling Tian or not.
There was only one thought left in his mind: to kill this purple-clad young man and avenge his younger brother!
"Second Brother!" When the Gold Thug returned to his senses from his sorrow, all he saw was his second brother charging towards the purple-clad young man. For a moment, he could not help but turn pale right away.
Whoosh!
Without any hesitation, the Gold Thug flew at the fastest speed possible and zoomed towards his second brother, trying to save him.
Boom!
Finally, the saber in the Silver Thug's hand hewed down and landed on Duan Ling Tian.
As a person on the Fifth Level Martial Monarch Stage, his strength was much more powerful than his younger twin brother's. When he unleashed his full strength, he could cast the strength of two ancient black dragons.
Swish!
The saber that contained the force of two ancient black dragons charged down earth-shatteringly.
Right then, even the crowd on the swift boat felt like they could sense the sharp saber chi that charged towards them. All of them could not help but have shivers run down their spines.
Of course, there were only a few on the swift boat that could see the Silver Thug's actions clearly. Feng Tian Wu and Xiong Quan could still see them clearly with a little difficulty.
However, witnessing Duan Ling Tian face with such an assault from the Silver Thug, but still not making any move to dodge at all, they could not help but feel like their hearts were hoisted high as they were filled with nerve-wracking anxiety.
Even though they had seen how Duan Ling Tian had forcefully blocked the Gold-Devouring Organization's leader's attack the last time, the strength that the leader possessed was on a completely different level with this Silver Thug before their eyes. One was on earth while the other was on heaven.
The Silver Thug's attack actually contained the strength of two ancient black dragons for freaking sake!
"T-Two silhouettes of ancient black dragons?" As fast as lightning, some people with sharp judgment could still see the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon that appeared above the Silver Thug's head. For a moment, their eyes narrowed as shock filled their faces.
"Pheeew!" Very soon, Feng Tian Wu and Xiong Quan heaved a sigh of relief.
They could clearly see that when the Silver Thug's blade hacked down and was about to hit Duan Ling Tian, Duan Ling Tian suddenly disappeared without a trace from the spot.
Dragon Soaring The Nine Heavens!
Sensing the sharp saber chi that charged towards him, Duan Ling Tian immediately cast his martial technique. As though he had transformed into an agile divine dragon, he wiggled as he moved forward.
Other than dodging to the side, he also made a detour and went behind the Silver Thug.
Boom!
Another palm thrust forward casually, taking the Silver Thug's life with it.
Now, three out of the Four Southern River Thugs were already dead.
Only the Gold Thug was left now.
"Who exactly are you?!" The Gold Thug, who failed to rescue the Silver Thug in time, came to a halt suddenly and asked Duan Ling Tian with a grave expression.
However, Duan Ling Tian's reply came in the form of action.
With the flick of his arm, a sword appeared out of thin air in his hand. That sword that emitted gushes of blood-curdling aura was none other than his Quasi Royal Grade Spirit Sword.
"I don't care who you are! I'll kill you today and avenge my three brothers!" Because Duan Ling Tian was ignoring him, the Gold Thug's face became even graver, and a sword also materialized in his hand. It was a sword that had a light dancing and swiveling around it.
"A grade one spirit sword?" Upon seeing the sword in the Gold Thug's hand, Duan Ling Tian was slightly astonished. However, he did not find it strange.
No matter what, the Gold Thug was still on the Sixth Level Martial Monarch Stage. If he did not even have a single grade one spirit weapon, then it would mean that he was just too unsightly.
"You want to avenge them? Let's see whether you're even capable or not!" This time, Duan Ling Tian finally replied the Gold Thug.
If one paid more attention, one could clearly see that there was an unusual tinge of thrill in the depth of his eyes.
Even since he had come to possess this strength, Duan Ling Tian had yet to battle it out freely as the opponents that he came across in the past were all weaker than he was.
Right now, the Gold Thug in front of him was on the Sixth Level Martial Monarch Stage and was the strongest opponent he had ever met in his life.
When it came to the terms of strength, he was barely inferior to him.
If he did not unleash his full potential, it would basically be impossible for him to defeat the Gold Thug. Because of this very reason he was excited! He was finally able to have his hands and feet unfettered in this battle.
The moment he thought about this, his blood inside his body began to boil with indignation.
"I'll prove it to you soon!"
In the face of Duan Ling Tian's provocation, the Gold Thug had no sense of fear at all. The golden robe on his body billowed, and the milky white flame that skyrocketed from his body began to transform speedily as well.
Hope started to ignite in the hearts of the people in the swift boat who had already lost all optimism at first after Duan Ling Tian had killed the two Silver Thugs one after another.
The hope of survival.
If they were present with the hope to survive, who would not want to survive?
For a moment, they began to pray in their hearts silently, hoping that this mysterious purple-clad young man could get rid of the Gold Thug and save them from this crisis.
"H-He's actually this strong? No wonder he dares to disobey the Yin Yang Sect elders!" The old man who originally sat near Duan Ling Tian — the very same old man who had kindly warned Duan Ling Tian when they were by the Ruo Shui Riverside — was now gawking at the purple figure hovering in the distant sky, who was in a stalemate with the Gold Thug, his mouth gaping wide.
"Young Master!" Xiong Quan looked at Duan Ling Tian with a slightly restless manner with his palms balled up into tight fists.
As for Feng Tian Wu, she was just merely standing quietly by the side. Her gaze at Duan Ling Tian was as gentle as water. The frost on the ultimately beautiful delicate face of hers had also dissipated a little.
Under the watchful eyes of the others, the Gold Thug, who had already built up solid momentum in just a blink of an eye, vanished before their eyes as though he had never been there before.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
...
However, the series of successive detonations and the gusts of hurricanes that were charging towards them seemed to be ringing alarm bells now, warning them that the Gold Thug had not disappeared. He was just so fast that they were unable to catch his movement with their naked eyes.
Before they could realize what was happening, they noticed that the other purple figure had also vanished without a trace before their very eyes.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
...
At the same time, the Heaven and Earth Energy started to whirl above the sky and gathered into an organic form continuously. The Heaven and Earth Phenomenon was about to take shape.
It was apparent that the eyes of the surrounding spectators were filled with anticipation.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
One after another, two sword swishing sounds disappeared as soon as they appeared almost at the same time and suddenly came to a halt without warning.
Snap! Snap!
Two faint noises resonated. The front and the back of the swift boat had gotten sliced by the sword ray that was incredibly fast.
Fortunately, it did not damage the crucial part of the swift boat. Otherwise, it would be difficult for the swift boat to maintain its hovering position and it would plunge into the Ruo Shui River, turning into ashes.
In the eyes of the watchful crowd, the purple and the golden figures appeared from time to time before vanishing before their sight again.
They were moving so fast that the crowd was completely panic-stricken.
"H-He actually is well-matched in strength with the Gold Thug! D-don't tell me that he's a Sixth Level Martial Monarch Stage powerhouse too?" Many people were completely baffled.
Very soon, they lifted their heads up one by one and looked at the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon gathering in the sky.
The Heaven and Earth Phenomenon was formed separately, belonging to both Duan Ling Tian and the Gold Thug.
The Gold Thug's appeared first.
When he made his move and mobilized his Heaven and Earth Energy, it gathered to become a total of two ancient black dragon silhouettes plus an additional of 5,000 ancient horned dragons.
In other words, when he unleashed his full potential, he could cast the strength of two ancient black dragons plus 5,000 ancient horned dragons.
He was on the Sixth Level Martial Monarch Stage, and he had a grade one spirit sword as well.
Not taking into the Profundity that he had comprehended, he could already unleash the strength of one ancient black dragon plus 5,000 ancient horned dragons.
When a Sixth Level Martial Monarch Stage martial artist's Origin Energy was fully unleashed, it was equivalent to the strength of 8,000 ancient horned dragons.
A grade one spirit sword gave a power boost of about 7,000 ancient horned dragons.
