Chapter 681: Duan Tianya's Killing Intent
Regarding another unknown continent as well as that so-called Cultivation World,
Xu Nian always harbored a sense of reverence.
Not to mention anything else, just the number of cultivators was enough to astonish Xu Nian.
He had previously heard from the Beast God.
In the Cultivation World, just the planets dedicated to cultivation numbered in the tens of thousands.
And on every planet, the number of cultivators was as abundant as the hairs on an ox.
Those at the Battle Emperor Level who were considered top-notch beings on Tianhen Continent
were regarded as no more than ants in the Cultivation World.
Zifu and Vajra Cultivators were common sights, with powerhouses aplenty.
Such a world, Xu Nian could hardly dare to imagine.
Xu Nian had thought it over before.
If one day he faced a cultivator at the Zifu Level,
he wondered whether he would be an opponent.
But now it seems,
such questions are laughable.
Should he encounter certain situations,
even if he can't win, he must fight.
Victory would bring great joy; defeat meant that in eighteen years, he could return a better man.
However, Xu Nian was extremely dissatisfied with this Nine-star War Emperor youth's attitude.
The look he gave them was like viewing inferior lifeforms.
The disdain in his eyes was completely unmasked.
It was clear he looked down on anyone from Tianhen Continent.
Of course, this youth's strength was also very formidable.
The power of his strike just now was evidently much greater than that of an average Nine-star War Emperor Level warrior.
"Why have you two attacked so ruthlessly without cause?" Xu Nian asked coldly.
Although he was reluctant to become enemies with the two before him, it had to be said,
the actions of the youth just then had indeed enraged him.
His strike had nearly killed him.
That was a hard pill to swallow.
"If I really wanted to attack ruthlessly, boy, would you still be alive?" the youth said dismissively. "As for striking you, I did it because I felt like it. If you're not satisfied, feel free to fight back."
Xu Nian's gaze became even colder.
Arrogant!
Utterly arrogant.
It seemed this youth didn't take Xu Nian seriously at all.
"Ah!"
However, just at that moment,
the youth let out a light exclamation.
Xu Nian followed his gaze,
and saw that it was fixed on Ice Blue.
His eyes lingered on her delicate and exquisite body,
with a hint of a sly interest in his expression.
A sense of foreboding struck Xu Nian's heart.
The youth had likely taken a fancy to Ice Blue.
With this, today's battle would likely not end well.
Ice Blue's brows also knitted slightly, her gaze frigid.
Clearly, she was very displeased with the youth's predatory stare.
"A beauty of the finest quality, I didn't expect to encounter one so soon. Beautiful lady, would you like to be my woman?" the youth asked Ice Blue flirtatiously, ignoring Xu Nian.
"Scram!" Ice Blue responded coldly.
"Feisty, I like it. I see your cultivation has also reached the Nine-star Demon Emperor Level. How about it, if you become my Spiritual Pet, I'll take you away from this continent, how does that sound?" the youth said with a light laugh.
The crowd around them showed surprised expressions upon hearing this.
Was this stunning-looking woman a Nine-star Demon Emperor?
And leaving this continent?
Could it be a journey to the so-called Cultivation World?
That was something all powerful individuals dreamed of!
For a moment, everyone looked at Ice Blue with envy in their eyes.
Xu Nian remained silent.
Ice Blue was not his spiritual pet.
If Ice Blue really wanted to go with the young man, Xu Nian would not stop her.
After all, Ice Blue was just his subordinate and had the right to make her own choice.
However, Ice Blue's response was somewhat unexpected to Xu Nian.
"I'm not interested!" Ice Blue replied coldly, her eyes resolute, showing not the slightest emotion.
The crowd around them sighed with regret.
They each wished they could turn into a stunning beauty.
Perhaps then, they would be favored by the young man and possess the qualifications to leave this world.
For them, cultivation was of the utmost importance.
If they could have such an opportunity, what would a little sacrifice matter?
The young man, upon hearing Ice Blue's words, did not get angry.
He always enjoyed conquest.
The more elusive the prey, the more pleasure he derived from capturing it.
Those things that were easily attainable were beneath his notice.
"Interesting, but do you think rejecting me will do any good? There has never been anything that I, Duan Tianya, wanted and did not get." Duan Tianya said with a light laugh, then suddenly rushed towards Ice Blue.
Duan Tianya's speed was incredibly fast.
He moved like a phantom.
Ice Blue was taken aback.
Even she, at the Nine-star War Emperor level, did not react in time.
"You don't want to leave? Then I'll just take you!" Duan Tianya chuckled, appearing in front of Ice Blue.
He then struck out towards Ice Blue's abdomen with a palm.
Ice Blue was shocked; it was too late to defend.
But just at this critical moment,
Ice Blue felt herself being pulled back swiftly by a force.
And the figure that appeared before her was a familiar one.
"Hall Master?" Ice Blue exclaimed in surprise.
She had not expected Xu Nian to step in at that moment.
"Clang!"
Duan Tianya's palm struck Xu Nian's Star Shield.
The spiritual energy from his palm collided with the shield, ringing out like a massive bell.
Xu Nian, along with his shield, was forced back several steps.
Duan Tianya, too, was pushed back three steps by the recoil force from the shield.
"Space Profound Argumentation?" Duan Tianya looked at Xu Nian with a surprised expression.
With his level of insight, he could certainly discern that Xu Nian was using the very rare Space Profound Argumentation.
However, the level of this Profound Argumentation was clearly not high.
For instance, this Space Folding had just barely reached the Profound Argumentation Threshold.
But someone who could comprehend Space Profound Argumentation was definitely seen as a hot talent in the Cultivation World.
The major forces and sects would certainly scramble to snatch such a talent.
Duan Tianya had not expected that in such a desolate place, someone could comprehend Space Profound Argumentation.
Even in the Cultivation World, there might not be one in a thousand planets.
It was clear how precious a genius of Space Profound Argumentation was.
Thinking this, a hint of jealousy arose in the young man's heart.
Initially, he thought Xu Nian, no matter how talented, would be constrained by this realm.
Supreme Battle Emperor might already be his peak.
Such talents were plentiful in the Cultivation World; no one would care.
He hadn't taken Xu Nian seriously at all.
But Xu Nian's comprehension of Space Profound Argumentation was different.
If the powers of the Cultivation World were to find out,
they would definitely send powerful individuals to take him out of this realm.
At that point, this guy's potential would be immeasurable.
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Duan Tianya's eyes.
His gaze towards Xu Nian became exceptionally cold.
The elder in the sky had been watching all of this with a detached gaze.
He shared Duan Tianya's thoughts.
Since an offense had already been made, they absolutely could not let a potential opponent grow.
Thus, it would be best to kill the young man.
He believed that with his young master's strength, killing a young man should not be difficult.
What do you think?
