Immortal Sword Master

Chapter 425: Chapter 421: Forceful Kill

An overwhelming killing intent erupted from Ning Jiang. Of everyone present, the ones he wanted to kill most were naturally those from Wuliang Palace!

The Infinite King had captured Ning Yu’an to threaten him. How could he possibly let that slide?

Was it in his nature to be manipulated by others?

As a Venerable, even if his strength was far from recovered, he was not someone a mere King could plot against.

’This is bad. He wants to kill me!’

Jing Fanzheng’s expression changed drastically. He had thought Ning Jiang was choosing him as a breakthrough point to cooperate and escape this dire situation.

For the sake of the grand plan for the Celestial Pill, he had naturally been willing to let Ning Jiang go.

But he never would have dreamed that Ning Jiang actually wanted to kill him.

The intensity of that killing intent, the coldness in his eyes, made Jing Fanzheng tremble to his core.

In Ning Jiang’s gaze, he saw an unshakable conviction to kill!

’Damn it!’

Jing Fanzheng’s pupils constricted.

Ning Jiang had charged him and then suddenly revealed his killing intent. It was a calculated move against an unsuspecting target. By the time Jing Fanzheng realized this, he was already a step behind.

Right then, the only thing he could do was cross his arms in front of him and channel all his Cultivation to block Ning Jiang’s strike.

BANG!

The moment he adopted a defensive stance, Ning Jiang’s fist came crashing down. The blow landed like a meteorite, its immense power pressing down on him mercilessly.

CRACK.

Instantly, the sound of bones shattering came from Jing Fanzheng’s arms. His entire body felt as if it had been struck by lightning. He violently coughed up blood as he was sent flying backward.

But just as Ning Jiang’s punch sent Jing Fanzheng reeling and coughing up blood, the attacks from the others—behind him and to his sides—came crashing down.

"Hahaha, Ning Jiang, you can’t kill me."

Jing Fanzheng laughed maniacally. In this situation, Ning Jiang would have no choice but to defend against the other attacks; he couldn’t possibly continue to pursue him.

But in the next moment, his pupils shrank as he stared at Ning Jiang in disbelief.

He saw Ning Jiang completely ignore the other attacks, take a step forward, and head straight for him.

Ning Jiang’s eyes were bottomless pits, the killing intent within them burning like a raging fire. "I told you, I’d start settling the score with the Infinite King by taking care of you first!"

As he stepped forward, he unleashed his Domain Power and activated the Great Mixed Cave Technique to resist the numerous attacks.

The Domain Power only lasted for half a breath before shattering, while the Great Mixed Cave Technique, unleashing its strongest Devouring Power, only managed to swallow half of the attacks.

The other half continued to bear down on him.

Ning Jiang activated his Thunder Dharma Body. At that moment, the numerous attacks finally landed on him.

PFFT.

Even something as strong as the Thunder Dharma Body could not withstand the assault. The Dharma Body shattered, and Ning Jiang, who was inside it, suffered a massive impact. He coughed up a mouthful of blood as cracks appeared on his internal organs.

If not for his powerful physique, he would have died from that blow.

"Kill!"

He ignored everything else, transforming into a streak of light as he shot toward Jing Fanzheng to kill him.

His fists left long trails of light in the air, like the tails of comets, as they crashed down.

"Ah! Ning Jiang, you’ve forced my hand! I’ll never forgive you! Six-Character Great Guardian!"

At that moment, Jing Fanzheng let out a piercing cry. Blood began to stream from his Seven Apertures as he uttered six words. The power of these words formed a six-colored barrier of light, securely protecting him within.

"This is..."

The hearts of the many prodigies present jolted violently.

This was especially true for Jian Jiuge and the others. They knew something about the Six-Character Great Guardian. It was a Secret Technique even harder to cultivate than the Six-Character Grand Judgment, and within Wuliang Palace, it was even once considered a Forbidden Technique.

The cost of activating this technique was enormous. Using it just once not only consumed a hundred years of one’s lifespan but also caused their Realm to drop.

Ning Jiang had backed Jing Fanzheng into a corner. If he didn’t use this Forbidden Technique, his life would be in danger. That was why his hatred for Ning Jiang now surged to the heavens.

BANG.

Ning Jiang’s fists slammed into the six-colored barrier. The barrier dented slightly but was incredibly resilient and didn’t shatter.

"Ning Jiang, you can’t break the Six-Character Great Guardian! This is a Forbidden Technique of my Wuliang Palace! Not only will you die today, but your sister will die with you!"

Jing Fanzheng’s gaze was venomous as he sent a Divine Sense transmission into Ning Jiang’s ear.

Ning Jiang didn’t speak, but a monstrous, cold light flared in his eyes.

"Jing Fanzheng, when I want someone dead, there is no escape for them, whether they flee to the Nine Heavens or descend into the Yellow Springs! If I want to kill you, there is absolutely no chance for you to live!"

Ning Jiang’s voice was so icy that it made Jing Fanzheng’s heart tremble.

"I don’t believe it! The only one dying today is you!" Jing Fanzheng roared.

"Great Mixed Cave Technique, break!"

Ning Jiang clenched his fist, and a pitch-black hole appeared over it. He had condensed the Great Mixed Cave Technique into a single point, completely focusing all of its power.

Within this Great Mixed Cave Technique pulsed an incredibly terrifying fluctuation. One must remember that just moments ago, he had used this very technique to devour nearly half of all the attacks in the field!

"Are you trying to get yourself killed?"

Jing Fanzheng’s face paled. Ning Jiang’s action was equivalent to completely abandoning his defenses.

"Madman! You’re a madman! Stop!"

Jing Fanzheng let out a trembling roar. This number one prodigy of Wuliang Palace was feeling fear for the first time. He had never imagined that someone could be as insane as Ning Jiang.

Just how obsessive was that gaze, which swore to kill him?

He would not rest until he achieved his goal!

The earth-shattering punch came crashing down.

Before Jing Fanzheng’s horrified eyes, the six-colored barrier was deeply dented by Ning Jiang’s punch, and the entire barrier began to tremble violently.

"No, I won’t die."

Jing Fanzheng roared, clinging to his last shred of hope.

"Die!"

Ning Jiang roared like a dragon. This was the strongest punch he had ever thrown, imbued with his absolute will to kill.

CRACK.

The barrier shattered. The fist landed squarely on Jing Fanzheng’s body. Like a watermelon, his body instantly exploded into a cloud of blood mist.

’Escape.’

A small figure appeared within the blood mist. It was Jing Fanzheng’s Primordial Spirit. Its face was filled with terror as it tried to flee.

As long as his Primordial Spirit survived, he had a hope of being reborn.

"Godslaying Sword."

But how could Ning Jiang give him that chance? Activating the God Obliteration Technique, a small sword shot out from between his eyebrows and locked onto Jing Fanzheng’s Primordial Spirit.

"Ning Jiang, Wuliang Palace will never let you go!"

This was the final, furious roar of Jing Fanzheng’s life. His Primordial Spirit was pierced by the Godslaying Sword and, in an instant, was annihilated into nothingness, utterly and completely dead.

This series of events seemed to unfold slowly, but in reality, it all happened in the blink of an eye.

Ning Jiang had forcefully killed Jing Fanzheng, but the consequences of his recklessness now became apparent.

The numerous attacks all descended upon him.

"Die, you monster."

Dazzling rays of light completely submerged Ning Jiang.

BOOM.

Following an earth-shattering explosion, a vast, circular shockwave swept outward.

"It should be over now, right?" the prodigies murmured.
