Transcending The Martial Peak - Chapter 97 A Terrifying Young Man
“Tsk. Tsk. Some Nice butt movements you got there. But why don’t you just die, Old Foggy? Aren’t you bored of living yet!” a voice filled with utter ridicule and contempt entered her ears as ‘Ling Tian’ appeared on a treetop.
He knew her battle capabilities. She could fight OverLords but now she is already spent. She received injuries from the earlier battle and it resulted in her old wounds to erupt again. This made her leave immediately because with each passing second she was losing more and more of her strength.
She needed at least half a year to suppress the new injuries due to her current physical state. Seeing her in this condition, Sheng Tian couldn’t hope for a better one.
Lu Xiya, the Sultry Snake Devil stared at the young man in front. Her eyes turned cold. She wanted to escape first, but seeing his power to be only at Earth Realm, she waved her palm as a pale green python appeared as it dashed at Sheng Tian.
Sheng Tian looked at the python dashing at him and didn’t attack it immediately. He took out a triangular box and shot it in between him and the Woman.
The Sultry Snake Devil expression changed from cold anger to a little panic. She clearly sensed that the triangular box is a formation. It is a sealing formation at that. Only an OverLord could break it. With her current strength which had already fallen to Sky Realm, she had no hopes of doing it.
But she also inferred that this formation had a time limit and it shouldn’t be for long. She wouldn’t mind finishing this ant.
Sheng Tian pulled out his sword; Scarlet of Blood. It was a craving for blood. Looking at the python phantom which is arriving at him, he smiled coldly.
Suddenly, a huge suppression was felt by the python phantom. It was like an ant was facing an ancient beast. It was the Suppression by Life’s Natural Order!
At the same time, the Sultry Snake Devil, Lu Xiya also felt a huge suppression on her bloodline, body and very soul itself.
She was forced to her knees as she was caught off guard. “What….is….this?” she asked coldly.
Sheng Tian chuckled merrily and slashed at the python phantom which lost all its aggressiveness. It only took the attack as it was destroyed.
Naturally, if it were to attack, Sheng Tian would have suffered a loss.
Looking at the Sultry Snake Devil, Sheng Tian laughed amiably “Well, well. I will tell you but you should keep it a secret, alright?”
She used her strength to get up as she asked: “What is it?”
He spoke unhurriedly “It’s the suppression of bloodline as well as Life’s Natural Order. I’m a higher form of life compared you as well as my bloodline is higher order than yours.”
The Sultry Snake Devil, Lu Xiya lost her composure as she yelled “No way you would be at a higher order of life. My bloodline is Thousand Python bloodline which doesn’t fear anything!”
Sheng Tian smiled cheekily as he said “This is a top secret. I have a Dragon bloodline, and the dragon is no ordinary dragon. It is the bloodline of the Dragon of the highest order. Snakes are in the family of Dragons, you can be said to be mobs of Dragons, failing to be even pseudodragons. Of course, you would be suppressed.”
Lu Xiya’s breathing quickened. Even though her soul, body, and bloodline were suppressed by him, she decided to kill him and use his bloodline for herself. She would obtain a bloodline she couldn’t even dream of. Her eyes were filled with boundless greed.
But she didn’t even think why someone like Sheng Tian would bother telling all these. Greed truly clouds one’s reasoning!
Sheng Tian saw that Lu Xiya was radiating killing intent, so he once again spoke: “Did the thought that why I was telling you all this like your nanny never came to your mind?”
Lu Xiya was stupified for a moment. Yes, he has no benefit to gain from telling me this. So, Unless…
“You….” she looked at him with shock as a thought occurred in her mind.
“Yes, you’re right. I’m buying time…” his figure flashed as the Scarlet of Blood in his hands shone with a dangerous glint.
*Bang* Sheng Tian and Lu Xiya were both pushed back by few meters each.
There was a trail of blood at the corner of Sheng Tian’s lips. He licked it lightly and smiled coldly.
Lu Xiya had a very gloomy face. Blood was dripping down from her right hand. Her index finger was cut off.
The current battle strength she could exert was only at Sky Profound Realm. But with his suppression from natural order and bloodline, she was now barely able to show the strength of Earth Realm Peak.
This is not just shocking, it was horrifying.
And the dangerous thing of this is that Sheng Tian’s talk led her by the nose and let her strength drop her from her previous boundary at Sky Peak and Emperor to Sky Peak, then with the suppression, their attacking powers are almost at the same levels!
But his terror didn’t end there, the surprise attack earlier was not to claim her life but rather her storage ring! As she was caught off guard, she could only protect her vitals leaving her storage ring with little defense. The next thing she knew, her finger has been cut off along with the ring. Her trump cards were in the storage ring. All those life-saving tokens, talismans, and even her weapon-the python scaled whip were now lost. Now she had no other trump cards, she could only fight with her battle strength.
What a terrifyingly scheming and cunning Young Man! She felt a shiver down her spine when she recalled how he did the talk like it was nothing. Anyone else would be incomparably tense so as to not give out any clues about their plan, yet he…he had no difficulties doing that at all. And that smile never left his face. Involuntarily, due to the Physical Suppression, Soul Suppression and now, the psychological suppression, she took a step back. She only wanted to escape.
She was feeling closer to death than ever.
She gritted her death and decided to burn off her blood essence as the price to break this formation and escape. It might cost her over 50% of her blood essence, but she didn’t care. She only wanted to survive. After she recovers, maybe she would find him for revenge. But she herself wasn’t sure about it as a shadow of fear was made in her heart.
Sheng Tian already put the finger with the storage ring inside and guessed her intention. He used Star Shadow Steps to reach her along with the Dragon Bloodline to suppress her blood essence strongly which in turn affected her escape process.
But Lu Xiya still wanted to try, this was the only chance for her to survive. With much difficulty, she avoided him as she forcefully burnt her blood essence.
*Bang* *Bang* *Crack* *Crack*
In the next moment, the formation was cracked and was destroyed.
Lu Xiya was at the edge of the formation with a shocked expression when a sword impaled her neck piercing through the profound energy armor and her tough skin.
*Blurgh* She spatted out a mouthful of blood. She knew that this is it. She was going to die! All the glory she once held, a high-level devil, someone who was the nightmare of her enemies. Her story has come to an end. She made one last decision, if it was her last day, she would bring down this terrifying enemy who might wipe out the devils in the future.
But the moment she was prepared to do the final strike, a strong force hit her on the back as a fist tore open her chest and blasted her heart to pieces.
Slowly, she felt all the strength leaving her body and her vision blur as her consciousness went blank.
