Chapter 155 - 152: Asura, I Will Kill You

Mo Qianqian frowned and hastily threw a punch, striking Chu He’s Spirit Body.

BANG!

A loud collision echoed as he knocked Chu He’s Spirit Body back. Although Chu He’s combat prowess was formidable, it wasn’t strong enough to threaten Mo Qianqian, even without him summoning his own Spirit Body.

"Asura, I’ll kill you!"

Chu He bellowed coldly from within the Asura Conglomerate’s crowd. His Spirit Body reappeared beside Mo Qianqian, launching a frantic, suicidal assault.

"Chu He, don’t!"

Xian Ling’Er’s voice rang out as her Spirit Body materialized in front of Mo Qianqian, blocking Chu He’s Spirit Body.

BOOM!

In the low sky, the nearly bald old man clashed with Patriarch Ling. A thunderous crash erupted as powerful waves of energy burst outward.

"Ninth Level of Tongyou Realm!"

Everyone’s hearts skipped a beat. They all knew Patriarch Ling was a master at the Ninth Level of Tongyou Realm. However, they were shocked to realize the old man was also at the Ninth Level of Tongyou Realm. The two clashed, evenly matched! At the same time, the crowd wondered if this old man was the backer behind Mo Qianqian.

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

In that split second, as Mo Qianqian retreated rapidly, Ling Lang, the Ling Family’s Grand Elder Lingyun Shan, Ling Guang, and several others shot forward in a flurry. Ling Lang was the closest, but the only one Mo Qianqian truly feared was an expert of Lingyun Shan’s caliber.

"Lingyun Shan, you old dog! Your time is up today!" a booming roar suddenly echoed.

Several figures charged toward the Martial Arts Arena at breakneck speed. One of them wore a black butcher’s outfit and wielded a massive dark iron blade. He had a broad, stout frame, with half of his face covered in thick stubble. A surging, murderous aura rolled off him as he charged at Lingyun Shan.

"The Slaughterer with the Evil Blade! The Slaughterer with the Evil Blade has broken in! His cultivation has actually broken through to the Eighth Level of Tongyou Realm!"

The crowd erupted in shock. The Ling Family was completely thrown into chaos as an all-out brawl commenced.

On Mo Qianqian’s side, aside from the unknown old master at the Ninth Level of Tongyou Realm, there was also the Slaughterer with the Evil Blade! He was an existence that made every major family uneasy—the type of man who dared to slaughter anyone. Back when he was at the Sixth Level of Tongyou Realm, his combat prowess was already incredibly formidable. Lingyun Shan had once led men to hunt him down and nearly killed him. Now, the Slaughterer with the Evil Blade had barged in again, this time with a cultivation at the Eighth Level of Tongyou Realm. With his current combat prowess, even Lingyun Shan might not be his match.

Furthermore, Lingyun Shan had suffered severe injuries in the Black Demon Ridge, and it was unknown if he had fully recovered.

Moreover, flanking the Slaughterer with the Evil Blade were four other Tongyou Realm experts. One was at the Sixth Level of Tongyou Realm, one at the Fourth Level of Tongyou Realm, and two at the First Level of Tongyou Realm. In addition, another thirty to forty men sprinted across the ground, charging headlong into the Ling Family’s forces.

"Those are men from the Iron Hammer Mercenaries! That’s the Iron Hammer Mercenaries’ commander, a master at the Sixth Level of Tongyou Realm!" Someone in the crowd who recognized them couldn’t help but cry out.

Meanwhile, Ling Lang was the first to reach Mo Qianqian. Even heavily injured, he was determined to kill him to avenge Ling Qingxue.

"You’re courting death!" Mo Qianqian snorted coldly. He instantly summoned his Spirit Body and charged at Ling Lang.

The Bone-Eroding Spiritual Source materialized on his Spirit Body as it launched a palm strike at Ling Lang. Ling Lang slashed out with his sword, but Mo Qianqian made his Spirit Body dodge the attack while he personally dashed forward, throwing a punch.

Simultaneously, his Spirit Body attacked Ling Lang again from the other side.

Forcefully drawing on immense power despite his severe injuries, Ling Lang suffered a backlash and spat a mouthful of blood. He swung his sword at the Spirit Body once more, while using his free hand to counter Mo Qianqian’s punch. The Spirit Body sidestepped the sword again, while Mo Qianqian’s fist met Ling Lang’s in a brutal, head-on collision.

BANG!

With a thunderous crash, Ling Lang was sent flying backward, spewing a large mouthful of blood. Because everything happened too fast, Mo Qianqian hadn’t had time to execute his World-Destroying Heaven-Shattering Technique, failing to kill Ling Lang in a single strike.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

At the same time, the Slaughterer with the Evil Blade and Lingyun Shan clashed. The Iron Hammer Mercenaries’ commander and his several Tongyou Realm experts also collided with the other Ling Family elders.

Everyone watched as the Grand Elder of the Ling Family was sent flying outright.

The rest of the Iron Hammer Mercenaries were evenly matched in strength against their Ling Family opponents. The Iron Hammer Mercenaries’ commander actually fought Ling Wen, a Ling Family master at the Seventh Level of Tongyou Realm, to a standstill.

After blasting Lingyun Shan away, the Slaughterer with the Evil Blade pivoted and attacked the back of another elderly expert at the Seventh Level of Tongyou Realm who was charging at Mo Qianqian. Startled, the elder hastily spun around to parry. Another elder at the Seventh Level of Tongyou Realm also rushed to intercept him.

The Ling Family had a total of one expert at the Ninth Level of Tongyou Realm, one at the Eighth Level, and three at the Seventh Level. These three were now effectively pinned down.

Of course, the Ling Family still had three experts at the Sixth Level of Tongyou Realm. The Iron Hammer Mercenaries were outnumbered in terms of Tongyou Realm experts. With those at or above the Seventh Level of Tongyou Realm occupied, Ling Guang and several others surged forward to attack Mo Qianqian.

CLANG!

Mo Qianqian, having already summoned his Spirit Body, snatched a nearby sword and blocked Ling Guang’s blade. To everyone’s surprise, Ling Guang was knocked backward by the impact.

Mo Qianqian thought in surprise, "My Spirit Body indeed possesses combat prowess equivalent to a high-level Tongyou Realm expert!"

And that was without even using the Bone-Eroding Spiritual Source! When attacking with weapons, the Bone-Eroding Spiritual Source was useless. Even so, it was still enough to repel Ling Guang, a master at the Sixth Level of Tongyou Realm. In terms of raw combat power alone, his Spirit Body was likely approaching the Seventh Level of Tongyou Realm.

Simultaneously, another elder at the Sixth Level of Tongyou Realm rushed Mo Qianqian, slashing downward with his saber. While rapidly retreating, Mo Qianqian grabbed his spear and swept it horizontally to block the incoming attack.

CLANG!

With another loud metallic crash, Mo Qianqian was knocked backward. He hadn’t had the time to launch a particularly powerful counterattack, but he was completely uninjured. Yet, other Tongyou Realm experts were already swarming toward him.

CLANG! CLASH! CLATTER!

In no time at all, the thirty or forty men of the Iron Hammer Mercenaries and the massive forces of the Ling Family clashed, plunging into a chaotic melee. However, apart from their experts at the Seventh Level of Tongyou Realm and above, the Ling Family still had three at the Sixth Level, five at the Fifth Level, and over thirty experts ranging from the First to the Fourth Level of Tongyou Realm.

Combined with the onslaught of several dozen Ling Family subordinates below the Spirit Profound Realm, the Iron Hammer Mercenaries’ forces were visibly overwhelmed. They were repeatedly sent flying backward in the brutal clashes as the Ling Family’s forces constantly surged forward, trying to engulf Mo Qianqian like a tidal wave.

Of course, in terms of peak strength, the Slaughterer with the Evil Blade was overwhelmingly powerful. He quickly sent two experts at the Seventh Level of Tongyou Realm flying. With every sweep of his blade, he knocked back a whole group or outright killed a man, beginning a bloody massacre of the other Ling Family members.

Very soon, several masters at the Early-stage Realm of Communication with Ghosts were slain on the spot by the Slaughterer with the Evil Blade.
