Chapter 625: Han Xue Nai's Methods
After a short moment, all three of the fifth level Void Initiation Stage martial artists that had fallen into the illusory space created by Duan Ling Tian's soul skill, Thousand Illusions, and suffered heavy injuries from fighting each other.
The three of them were barely able to stand still as they gasped for breath and confronted each other in a three way confrontation.
Bang!
Right at this moment, an enormous band sounded out, and it drew the attention of Duan Ling Tian and Dong Ming.
As for the three fifth level Void Initiation Stage martial artists, they instead seemed to have not heard it.
Duan Ling Tian glanced over, and he saw the faraway cavern wall abruptly collapse, and a stone door appeared in its place.
Along with the stone door rising, a beautiful figure walked out to appear before his eyes.
"Xue Nai!" Duan Ling Tian's gaze lit up when he saw the yellow clothed young girl that walked out slowly.
The young girl was precisely Han Xue Nai.
"Big Brother Ling Tian." The young girl had a long face, yet when she saw Duan Ling Tian, she squeezed out a trace of a smile on her face.
"What's wrong?" Duan Ling Tian asked with slight worry when he saw something was wrong with Xue Nai.
"Big Brother Ling Tian, I'm so useless... Amongst the six tests of the Sword Monarch's Treasure's third level, I actually failed two of them." Xue Nai put on a long face as she spoke dejectedly.
"Which two tests did you fail?" Duan Ling Tian asked curiously.
"I failed the first test to choose a grade one spirit sword, and then the final test of challenging a Mirror Puppet, I was only able to fight it to a tie and it ended in failure." As Han Xue Nai finished speaking, she had an expression of being not resigned. "That fellow knew all my abilities, and I was utterly helpless against it."
Han Xue Nai had spoken casually, yet when it entered into Dong Ming's ears, it instead caused Dong Ming to seems as if he was struck by lightning, and he was completely dumbstruck. "One... Grade one spirit sword?"
To Dong Ming, obtaining a grade five spirit sword already posed a certain level of difficulty.
A grade one spirit sword always shocked his heart out.
"Then did you choose a grade two spirit sword or grade three spirit sword?" Duan Ling Tian asked curiously.
"A grade two spirit sword." Han Xue Nai was dejected.
Grade two spirit sword?
Dong Ming was stunned once more.
This young girl obtained a grade two spirit sword, yet is still so unhappy?
Comparisons are really odious!
As far as he was concerned, if it was him, then not to mention a grade two spirit sword, even if he obtained a grade three spirit sword, he would be happy to the point of practically being unable to sleep.
"A grade two spirit sword isn't bad as well." Duan Ling Tian smiled.
"I don't dislike its grade." Han Xue Nai shook her head. "I just want to pass that test... No matter if it was a grade two spirit sword or grade three spirit sword, it's still a failure! In my eyes, there's no difference between the both of them."
Duan Ling Tian's heart shook when he heard Xue Nai.
Looks like Han Xue Nai's background is really unfathomable as she doesn't even take a grade two spirit sword seriously.
"Big Brother Ling Tian, what're they doing?" In next to no time, Han Xue Nai recovered, and she became full of vigor.
"They?" Duan Ling Tian smiled lightly. "They wanted to kill me, and I slightly executed some abilities against them..."
"Big Brother Ling Tian, you... You know soul skills?" After glancing at the three fifth level Void Initiation Stage martial artists with empty gazes that were battling each other, Han Xue Nai gasped with admiration.
Duan Ling Tian was surprised that Han Xue Nai was able to discern what he'd done.
What a joke!
Xue Nai was someone from a great power of the Foreign Lands after all, and recognizing soul skills wasn't surprising.
"Yes." Duan Ling Tian nodded.
Han Xue Nai instantly looked at Duan Ling Tian with admiration when she heard this. "Big Brother Ling Tian, you're truly formidable... I've never heard a human martial artist being able to execute soul skills before attaining the Martial Emperor Stage."
"My luck was good, and I just obtained some good fortune." Duan Ling Tian smiled.
The nearby Dong Ming was instead unable to wrap his head around what was going on.
Soul skill?
Martial Emperor?
He'd never heard nor seen of the former, whereas, he'd only heard of the latter and knew that it was an existence that was at the peak of Cloud Continent.
"Brother Ling Tian seems to know some soul skill, and this soul skill can only be executed by a human martial artist after becoming a Martial Emperor?" This was the logic that Dong Ming summarized after combing through and ordering the information.
"This Brother Ling Tian is truly... Truly shocking." As he looked at Duan Ling Tian talking cheerfully with the young girl, the corners of Dong Ming's mouth twitched, and as he finished muttering, he didn't know how to describe the shock Duan Ling Tian brought him.
"Big Brother Ling Tian, why did they want to kill you?" Han Xue Nai asked.
"They saw me come out from the third level of the Sword Monarch's Treasure and were greedy towards the things I obtained within it, and they wanted to kill me to seize my treasures... In the end, it became like this." As he finished speaking, Duan Ling Tian shrugged, and he had an expression that seemed as if all this had nothing to do with him.
"Big Brother Ling Tian, you're too merciful... They wanted to kill you, yet you let them live for so long." Han Xue Nai lightly shook her head.
Subsequently, under Duan Ling Tian and Dong Ming's shocked gazes, Han Xue Nai abruptly raised her hand.
Along with Han Xue Nai's hand slowly pushing out.
Whoosh!
A wave of cold wind that was icy cold to the extreme swept out to envelop the three fifth level Void Initiation Stage martial artists that were fighting chaotically together, and it froze them into ice sculptures.
Three lifelike ice sculptures with various forms stood there.
"Just looking at them is an eyesore." Han Xue Nai frowned as she looked at the three ice sculptures, and her hand lightly shook.
Instantly, three fine needles condensed from ice whistled out.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The ice needles respectively collided with one of the three ice sculptures, causing them to directly shatter and crumble.
The three fifth level Void Initiation Stage martial artists within were dead without a doubt!
After she finished all this, Han Xue Nai was like someone that hadn't done anything, and her gaze descended onto the three people that had fallen in pools of blood now. "Why have these people died as well? I recognize them, Big Brother Ling Tian, you'd once help them kindheartedly earlier by allowing them to seek refuge on the Big Guy's back."
"They were killed by me." Duan Ling Tian glanced indifferently at the three corpses and said, "These three people and those other three people that you just killed had joined forces and wanted to kill me and seize the treasures I obtained in the third level."
"What?!" Han Xue Nai's face became grim, and she glared angrily at the three corpses. "These three fellows actually repaid favor with evil? They deserve death!"
Under her extreme rage, Han Xue Nai attacked out once more, and the aura that was icy cold to the extreme swept out to envelop the three corpses.
Instantly, the three corpses transformed into three ice sculptures that lay on the ground.
Bang!
Han Xue Nai raised her hand and slapped out, and three palm prints whistled out to blast the three ice sculptures into bits of ice.
This wasn't the end.
Whoosh!
Han Xue Nai's sleeve swept out, and a strong wind that was ice cold to the extreme seemed to condense into numerous wind blades in the air, and it seemed like a dense heaven encompassing net that enveloped those bits of ice.
Instantly, the bits of ice transformed into mist that covered the sky before dispersing in the air.
Hiss!
A wave of gasping sounded out.
Dong Ming felt his heart go cold when he saw the young girl's actions, and he couldn't help but gasp.
"This little girl..." Duan Ling Tian shook his head and smiled, and warmth arose in his heart from Han Xue Nai's actions.
As the saying goes, boiling with rage for a beauty!
This little girl Han Xue Nai instead boiled with rage for her Big Brother now.
"You didn't arouse covetous thoughts towards my Big Brother Ling Tian's things, right?" In next to no time, Han Xue Nai's gaze descended onto Dong Ming, and traces of icy cold aura leaped about within her eyes.
It was as if so long as Dong Ming's answer was unsatisfactory, she would attack and freeze Dong Ming into a popsicle before destroying it.
"No, I didn't... I didn't!" Dong Ming's body started shivering for no reason.
He'd completely experienced the temper of this Little Lady, and he felt fear from the bottom of his heart.
Now, even if someone bashed him to death, he wouldn't dare offend this Little Lady.
When other's kill, they leave a corpse at any rate, and even if it was worse than that, it would be a mangled corpse.
But the Little Lady caused one to turn into ash with a raise of her hand, and causing one to not leave a single trace in this world.
"Xue Nai, don't scare Dong Ming... When those six people wanted to deal with me earlier, he'd even stood up to help me and wanted to fight them to the death." Duan Ling Tian shook his head.
The coldness in Han Xue Nai's eyes instantly vanished and was replaced with warmth like that of the summer. "So that's how it is, it seems that I've misunderstood you... I never imagined that you'd even helped Big Brother Ling Tian."
"Since it's like this, I'll give you a gift of gratitude." As soon as Han Xue Nai finished speaking, a three foot long blade appeared out of thin air with a raise of her hand, and it whistled out to firmly descend before Dong Ming and pierce into the ground.
"This is?" Dong Ming was shocked, and when he recovered from his shock, he looked at Han Xue Nai with a bewildered expression.
"This is the grade two spirit sword I obtained in the third level, Big Brother Ling Tian probably won't take a fancy to it any longer, so take it." As Han Xue Nai spoke, she slightly turned to look at Duan Ling Tian, and her gaze contained deep meaning.
This caused Duan Ling Tian's heart to be unable to help but jerk.
Could it be that this little girl knows something?
"Grade two spirit sword?!" Dong Ming's body shook when he heard Han Xue Nai, then he looked at the spirit sword in astonishment, and he was extremely excited in his heart.
After a short moment, he recovered from his astonishment and looked at Han Xue Nai. "You... You're really giving it to me?"
"What? You don't want it?" Han Xue Nai's beautiful brows frowned as she spoke indifferently. "If you don't want it, then I'll take it back right now."
"No... No... I want it! I want it!" Dong Ming was instantly anxious when he heard the young girl, and he directly put it away in his Spatial Ring, as he was deeply afraid that the young girl would really regret her decision.
After he put away the grade two spirit sword, Dong Ming heaved a sigh of relief before looking at the young girl and hurriedly expressing his gratitude. "Thank you, Young Miss Xue Nai. Thank you, Young Miss Xue Nai."
"Why haven't Little Black, Little White, and Little Gold come out yet?" Han Xue Nai looked at the surroundings and frowned, and there was slight worry between her brows.
Although Duan Ling Tian didn't say anything, worry could be discerned from his face.
Time silently passed by.
An hour passed.
Two hours passed.
Three hours later.
Bang!
An enormous bang sounded out, causing Duan Ling Tian, Han Xue Nai, and Dong Ming to seem as if they were jolted awake from a dream.
In next to no time, the saw the far away cavern wall split open, and a think and heavy stone door that was slowly rising appeared there...
"Squeak squeak~" A familiar cry sounded out, and it caused Duan Ling Tian to seem as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulder.
A fluffy and chubby little gold mouse quickly appeared before Duan Ling Tian's eyes.
