Did Xu Nian really defeat a True Dragon? And even killed it?
How did he manage to do that?
"Damn, Xu Nian, was this your doing?" Feng Cheng exclaimed in exaggeration.
Staring at the ruins before them, his eyes were filled with intense shock.
Chu Xiong and Lu Feng also exchanged glances, the horror in their eyes was self-evident.
Even Murong Xueâs pretty face showed disbelief, unable to accept that all of this was real.
A Peak of Tribulation Crossing, killing a True Dragon?
Xu Nian at this moment was extremely exhausted, his face pale.
Right now, he had no combat power left; even a Zifu Realm could possibly kill him.
However, Xu Nian still managed to collect the True Dragonâs body into his storage ring, finally sitting down cross-legged to begin healing.
He killed the True Dragon, not just to bet with Lin Hao, but more importantly for the True Dragon Blood.
So he did not want to waste the True Dragonâs corpse.
Xu Nian sat down, directly drank a mouthful of Spiritual Spring.
Ate a few Spirit Pills, which slightly restored some color to his face.
He opened his eyes and looked at Lin Hao beside him.
At this moment, Lin Haoâs face was extremely gloomy, his eyes filled with intense unwillingness.
"Senior Brother Lin Hao, isnât it time to fulfill the bet?" Xu Nian said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Lin Haoâs brow furrowed suddenly.
He had already sworn an oath; now that Xu Nian had won, if he did not fulfill the bet, he would face a fate worse than death.
Of course, there was another way, which was for Xu Nian to voluntarily give up the bet.
"Xu Nian, do you really have to be so ruthless? Give others a chance when possible, can we pretend nothing happened today?" Lin Hao hesitated for a moment before speaking.
The Immortal Sword was his Blood Refining Weapon, and now he was severely injured. If he forcibly cut off the weaponâs contract,
His strength might greatly diminish, and he could even lose his realm.
This was something he was extremely unwilling to see.
Upon hearing Lin Haoâs words, Xu Nian showed a slight smile on his face.
If he had lost the bet, would this guy just forgive him?
"I say Lin Hao, how can you be so shameless? Lost is lost, donât you even have that bit of courage? If I were you, I would have found a hole to hide in long ago." Feng Cheng said disdainfully.
"Shut up!" Lin Hao immediately shouted coldly, a glint of malice flashing in his eyes.
Then he turned to Xu Nian, his eyes full of questioning: "Xu Nian, I am the first genius of the Haotian Sect, if I lose my realm, the Haotian Sect will definitely not spare you. If you let me go, one day I can give you an Immortal Sword as compensation."
Lin Haoâs words were full of threats.
Upon hearing this, Xu Nian laughed even more coldly.
He looked at Lin Hao and said, "Lost is lost, today I will not relent. As for your Haotian Sect, I, Xu Nian, have never been afraid."
"Exactly, Xu Nian is from our Denor Star System, Iâd like to see who dares to trouble him." Chu Xiong also stood up and said.
After speaking, he and Lu Feng burst with momentum, directly pressuring Lin Hao.
Lin Haoâs face changed instantly.
If he were in peak condition, he might not fear these two.
But now, severely injured as he was, he would probably gain no benefit if they fought.
"Alright, alright, Xu Nian, I will remember todayâs humiliation. I will definitely return it tenfold in the future, take the sword." Lin Hao yelled, and the next moment he spat blood. Then, with a wave of his hand, a sharp sword shot out, planting in front of Xu Nian.
The Immortal Sword flickered with thunder, but it no longer held Lin Haoâs soul breath.
This indicated that the sword had become an ownerless object.
Xu Nian naturally didnât hesitate, he pulled out the sharp sword, took a look, and stored it in his storage ring.
This was his second Immortal Artifact, even though they were both Low Grade, they were nonetheless Immortal Artifacts.
Lin Hao, seeing this scene, had an extremely gloomy look in his eyes and, clutching his chest, his breath became instantly dispirited.
Xu Nian could feel Lin Haoâs presence had significantly weakened.
Lin Hao had lost his realm.
From the Late Stage Earth Immortal, he fell to the Middle Stage Earth Immortal.
Severing the contract with the Blood Refining Weapon had obviously caused significant damage to his soul.
To recover, he would likely take a long time.
"Xu Nian, I will remember todayâs enmity. One day, I will repay it tenfold, farewell!" Lin Hao left these words and was about to leave.
If he didnât leave sooner, he was truly afraid Xu Nian would attack him.
Xu Nian watched Lin Hao leave without trying to stop him.
It wasnât that he didnât want to, but that he couldnât.
At this point, he no longer had any strength to fight.
As for Chu Xiong and Lu Feng, Xu Nian didnât let them take action either.
After all, Lin Hao was from Haotian Sect. Xu Nian could not care, but he didnât want to involve them.
If Lin Hao was killed, Haotian Sect would surely become furious, and not even the Denor Empire might be able to protect them.
So Xu Nian didnât want to harm them.
However, letting a tiger return to the mountain was not a good thing. In the future, if the chance arose, he must kill him.
"Xu Nian, how exactly did you do it? Did you really kill a True Dragon?" Seeing Lin Hao leave, Feng Cheng immediately asked.
Chu Xiong and Lu Feng upon hearing, also curiously looked at Xu Nian.
Xu Nian smiled slightly and explained: "I once obtained an Ancient Array, which contained an incredibly powerful Axe Light. Just now, I used this Axe Light to kill the True Dragon. Otherwise, even ten of me would not be its match."
Everyone nodded upon hearing this.
With that explanation, everything made sense.
It was obvious that everything before them could only have been caused by a weapon like an axe.
And to create such a strong attack, it could probably rival an Earth Immortal Peak powerhouse.
Even with Xu Nianâs capabilities, he couldnât unleash this level of attack.
Seeing everyone believing him, a smile appeared on Xu Nianâs face.
He finally managed to cover it up.
He didnât want anyone to know he had a Divine Artifact in hand.
Once it spread, the entire Cultivation World would likely hunt him down.
Xu Nian didnât want to become the Cultivation Worldâs enemy.
However, soon after, the smile on Xu Nianâs face turned cold because he saw a figure walking toward them.
This figure was none other than Sun Yuxiang.
Regarding Sun Yuxiang, Xu Nian had always been cautious.
Previously, he already felt Sun Yuxiang was hiding something, and now this feeling intensified.
It was likely that Lin Haoâs appearance was due to her instigation behind the scenes.
"You want the token of Shendang Mountain?" Xu Nian asked Sun Yuxiang.
Sun Yuxiang entering the realm area, wasnât she here seeking something?
Now, it seemed this thing was indeed the token of Shendang Mountain.
"You guessed right, I do need the token of Shendang Mountain. You might not know what this token is." Sun Yuxiang said with a smile.
"What is it?" Xu Nian asked, puzzled.
Sun Yuxiang chuckled and said, "The token of Shendang Mountain is a drop of... Immortal Emperor Blood."
