Tyrant Sky Martial Soul
Chapter 1440 - 1443: Ranked 2nd on the Dragon and Phoenix List
CHAPTER 1440: CHAPTER 1443: RANKED 2ND ON THE DRAGON AND PHOENIX LIST
Although Ling Xiao was facing the Seventh Cave Heaven Realm’s Nan Sha, he did not overlook the sudden appearance of the flying wheel ship in the sky.
He even felt the murder intent emanating from the other party quite clearly.
On the Holy Dynasty Immortal Island, those who could harbor murderous intent towards him were most likely the Immortal Island Ji Clan.
He had killed Ji Ying, and the other side would not let him go.
But since the other side had not made a move yet, he needed to quickly eliminate this Nan Sha and not continue wasting time.
Thinking of this, Ling Xiao swiftly mobilized the power of the Human King within him.
Now, he still had five layers of the Human King power.
However, ever since he entered the Cave Heaven Realm, the effect of the Human King power on him had diminished significantly.
Previously, when he was at the Half-step Cave Sky Realm, he could use the Human King power to contend with Cave Heaven Realm Martial Artists.
But now, what the Human King power provided him was perhaps just an enhancement of one level of strength.
In other words, if he was a Fourth Cave Heaven Realm martial artist now, the Human King power would give him strength equivalent to the Fifth Cave Heaven Realm.
The Cave Heaven Realm is like this temporarily; once he reaches the Yin-Yang Realm, the Human King power might lose its effect completely.
So Ling Xiao had no reservations about using the Human King power now.
Upon harnessing the Human King power, the power of Ling Xiao’s Fire Dragon Sword Domain increased noticeably.
Every small fire dragon, composed of transformed Sword Qi, became more formidable.
It was impossible now for Nan Sha to devour them in one gulp.
"Dragon Binding—!"
As Ling Xiao’s icy voice echoed, terrifying small fire dragons, in a group, pounced towards Nan Sha, continually closing in and enveloping him.
"What is happening?"
Nan Sha was truly terrified in his heart; the sudden burst of power from Ling Xiao was utterly unexpected, leaving him caught off guard.
He desperately tried to break free, but the small fire dragons only gathered more densely.
"No way, I can’t just die like this, get me out of here!"
Nan Sha was truly scared, unleashing the full tenfold of his terrifying power, shattering the small fire dragons that wrapped around him completely.
He showed a look of excitement on his face.
However, in the next moment, that excitement turned into despair.
A terrible thing happened.
The largest fire dragon gripped his body tightly and kept coiling around him, binding him tightly.
Immediately following, numerous small fire dragons flew over one by one, once again swiftly wrapping him.
"Help~~"
Nan Sha didn’t know who he was calling for help from, but all he could do now was plea for help, to alleviate the horror in his heart.
He was out of options, having been toyed with to this extent by a Fourth Cave Heaven Realm kid, even his life was at stake.
How could he, be able to accept this?
"Huang Tian, go save him."
In the sky, on the flying wheel ship, the white-bearded elder said indifferently to the young man standing beside him.
Ji Huangtian!
He had finally returned from the White Tiger Continent.
The top expert of the Holy Dynasty Immortal Island, ranked second on the Dragon and Phoenix List!
The Phoenix God Empire has the Ten Phoenix Sons, the Black Crow Empire has the Seven Deadly Stars, almost every sect or major power has its own rankings and titles.
But the Dragon and Phoenix List, however, exists only in the Divine Phoenix Continent and the Heavenly Dragon Continent!
It represents the strongest martial artists under thirty years old on the Heavenly Dragon Continent and the Divine Phoenix Continent.
The Dragon and Phoenix List is usually updated annually, but in special cases, like if a martial artist on the list is killed, the list may be temporarily revised.
This Dragon and Phoenix List was jointly created by Tianlong Trade Company, Five Immortal Islands, Seven Martial Islands, and the two great empires, with high authority.
Ji Huangtian ranked second on last year’s Dragon and Phoenix List.
While the Phoenix God Empire’s Fengming Qishan was ranked fifth, Feng Yingshan was ranked tenth!
You must know, last year among the Ten Phoenix Sons, Fengming Qishan was ranked first.
Yet on the Dragon and Phoenix List, it was only fifth.
Feng Yingshan was even ranked tenth.
And that Zongyu Huangquan from Penglai Fairy Island, who attempted to take Leng Mei from Ling Xiao’s side, was ranked fourth on the Dragon and Phoenix List.
No matter which of these few, none are as terrifying as Ji Huangtian.
Reportedly, the person ranked first is a monster from Changle Immortal Island named Dan Feng.
Yet Ling Xiao had never met that person, not knowing even whether they were male or female.
So Ji Huangtian was currently the strongest person Ling Xiao had seen on the Dragon and Phoenix List.
The white-bearded elder letting him act was knowing he could effortlessly rescue Nan Sha.
However, Ji Huangtian did not make a move, he merely looked at Ling Xiao and said one sentence: "Let him go."
The voice was soft and light.
Yet it carried an absolutely commanding tone that could not be defied.
This seemingly light tone, in fact, condensed very strong pressure.
Ordinary martial artists simply couldn’t bear it, certainly opting to follow his instructions.
But who was Ling Xiao?
He was no ordinary martial artist.
Completely ignoring Ji Huangtian’s words, seeing the small fire dragons had fully enveloped Nan Sha, he muttered to himself, "Dragon Binding—Burial Kill!"
Boom!
The fire dragons visibly tightened.
This scene made Ji Huangtian quite displeased.
He frowned, finally taking action.
Without using a weapon, he launched a palm strike from hundreds of meters away.
Crack!
With a shattering sound, the small fire dragons and large fire dragon were all obliterated by this overwhelming palm strike.
Nan Sha fell out from inside.
Though not yet dead, all his bones were nearly broken, even his head had been crushed and deformed.
One could imagine, if Ji Huangtian had not acted in time, Nan Sha would have undoubtedly met his end.
Even so, in his current state, Nan Sha was almost a cripple.
Without Ling Xiao’s intervention, it’s likely Nan Sha wouldn’t live much longer.
Ji Huangtian looked coldly at Ling Xiao.
He didn’t care if Nan Sha lived or died, but the fact that Ling Xiao dared to continue after he’d spoken made him very unhappy.
As a direct descendant of the Sacred Dynasty, he has always been wary of one phrase, "Those who follow me thrive; those who oppose me perish!"
By not listening to him, Ling Xiao was already placed on his death blacklist.
The white-bearded elder witnessed all this, his eyebrows instantly furrowing.
This young man before him, judging by his bone structure, was only seventeen.
Yet he could nearly kill the Giant Whale Sect’s second-in-command, Nan Sha, single-handedly.
This terrifying talent, even on the Dragon and Phoenix List, is absolutely one in a million.
If anyone could compare to this kid’s talent, it would be only Ji Huangtian by his side.
His eldest grandson!
Ji Ying’s cousin.
Ji Huangtian’s expression, though calm as water, bore a clear murder intent.
"He must die!"
After a long while, Ji Huangtian spoke.
"Indeed, he must die."
The white-bearded elder slowly nodded in agreement, then instructed the flying wheel ship to descend slowly.
"Nan Sha, your Giant Whale Sect people are becoming more and more useless, can’t even kill a nobody, how disgraceful!"
The old man’s resonant voice echoed, instantly halting the entire battlefield.
His voice obviously infused with potent, terrifying inner strength, imposed an immense pressure on everyone, which is why the battle abruptly stopped.
