Chapter 457: Strong Old Man!

Li Xiandao’s sword energy struck the old man away and he appeared at the top of the waterfall. Light shone on his body and the rays spread down, making him look like a celestial.

From a few hundred meters below, Tian Guangming and Li Wuya knelt down emotionally when they saw him and shouted, “Greetings Master!”

The old man who was sent flying wasn’t injured. He was just caught off guard previously and now he looked at Li Xiandao and laughed, “So, you are the Master that those two pieces of trash mentioned?”

“You aren’t that strong; you are only at stage two. In my eyes, you are as weak as an ant.” The old man looked at Li Xiandao with a sharp gaze.

Li Xiandao, wearing his mask, stepped out. The ground shrunk beneath him and he arrived at the grass patch beneath the waterfall.

“Did you ask me when you wanted to consume my men?” Li Xiandao was really calm. He faced the old man, who was about his height, and stared at him with a cold expression.

The old man laughed and said, “Did I end up drawing the old one over?”

He and Li Xiandao were just half a meter away from one another and Li Xiandao stood with his arms behind his back. His hair was tied up and his ink mask gave off an ice-cold aura.

“It isn’t counted because they didn’t offend you and they saved you instead. However, you are at fault for treating them so poorly.” Li Xiandao said.

“I am used to doing that. My Master taught me cultivation and after I grew up, I consumed my Master. So will someone like me who even dares to swallow my Master bother to repay someone who saved my life?” The old man grinned. His tone was just so heartless and ice cold.

Tian Guangming and Li Wuya’s heart jumped. This person was just too cruel.

Li Xiandao looked at the old man. He had a center parting and wore simple clothes. He had many wrinkles on his face and many wounds on his body. He just looked like a gangster.

“You didn’t repay my subordinates and even wanted to swallow them. Now, I want to take revenge for them.” Li Xiandao said.

“Revenge, you?” The old man smiled in disdain.

“Right, me.” Li Xiandao nodded.

“Someone who is only at Destiny Realm wants to take revenge. Do you believe that when I am at my peak, I will crush you as easily as I can crush an ant?” The old man stared coldly at Li Xiandao.

“Of course, I believe you. People who can be locked in the Eternal Jail are all enemies of the Celestial Court. You are definitely much stronger than me.” Li Xiandao nodded his head.

“You know about Eternal Jail, Celestial Court?” The old man focused and sized up Li Xiandao carefully. He didn’t attack right away.

“Not only do I know about the Eternal Jail, but I also know about Celestial Dynasty and I know that you are in a weakened state. You have been locked here for a long time and you are probably a toothless tiger.” Li Xiandao looked into the old man’s eyes and didn’t back down.

“You know quite a lot.” The old man laughed coldly, “Even if you are right, a toothless tiger is still a tiger. To crush an ant is just too easy.”

“No, I feel that you are a toothless tiger while I am a lion.” Li Xiandao shook his head.

“Then, let’s see whether or not the toothless tiger can rip your head off.” The old man smiled.

“Bring it on.” Li Xiandao nodded his head with his arms by his back as he looked at the old man.

“Sure, bring it on.” The old man smiled and his gaze became really deep.

Tian Guangming and Li Wuya had been watching and they were frightened, so they all backed down.

Tian Guangming could only shout, “Good luck, Master.”

“Master, you must kill him.” Li Wuya recovered some true qi. He controlled his overlord blade and dragged Tian Guangming and the Heaven Emperor Brush away.

“Your subordinates are abandoning you.” The old man burst out laughing.

“It is good that they left in case your blood splatters on them when I kill you.” Li Xiandao said calmly.

Hong!

The moment he said this, the old man punched right away. His body was so quick that it didn’t leave an afterimage at all.

Several streaks of sword energy surged out of Li Xiandao’s body and shot forwards.

Hong long long!

The old man’s fist smashed into the sword energy, hitting the mountain like thunder.

That strike caused giant shockwaves that could sweep emperors away but Li Xiandao and the old man didn’t care.

The two of them clashed right away. The old man reached out and a sharp blade appeared in his hand as he sliced down.

Keng!

Li Xiandao’s sword energy sliced down, the tip striking the sharp blade, and with a crack, all the weapons formed from true qi collapsed.

Peng!

Li Xiandao flew up and kicked the old man’s stomach.

A heavy explosion resounded.

The old man’s body shook but he didn’t fly from that kick. In the next second, he took in a deep breath. The spiritual energy 100 miles around was swallowed into his stomach. His body surged with energy and he blocked Li Xiandao’s leg.

Instantly, he sliced down with his arm. He wanted to slice Li Xiandao’s leg.

Li Xiandao knew that it wasn’t effective but he didn’t retreat. Instead, he followed it up with a foot.

Peng!

His body flew. Li Xiandao’s second leg hit the same position and this time it was filled with all of Li Xiandao’s strength.

Hong!

The old man’s body flung backwards and his hand blade lost its target.

“Interesting… Your strength far exceeds your realm.” The old man was kicked aside and he spat out a mouthful of fresh, dark blood. Not only was he not injured, but he felt actually much more comfortable.

“Who knows how long this blood has accumulated for? I wanted to spit it out for such a long time so thank you for that.” The old man looked at the blood and grinned. He seemed really terrifying.

Li Xiandao looked on with a calm expression. He knew that the old man was strong but this strength far exceeded his imagination.

“To express my thanks towards you, I will consume you to make you a part of my body.” The old man licked his lips and with a fierce gaze, he jumped up and slapped down.

Hong long long!

This slap was really strong and instantly covered Li Xiandao’s path. He then gathered true qi and it turned into a huge mountain.

The mountain seemed really ancient and gave off a melancholic aura. It spread quickly and everything became totally silent. It then pressed down like the whole sky was smashing down.

Li Xiandao focused and there were two words on the mountain:

Ancient God!

The old man was the Ancient God!

His slap revealed himself and he was really strong.

“Unrivalled Beauty!”

Li Xiandao formed a sword with his fingers, using the move he created for Seven to fly up. With a loud explosion, he turned into a beautiful streak of sword energy.

An extremely beautiful, jade teen surrounded by sword energy…

Hong long long!

In the next second, the sword energy sliced the Ancient God Mountain and struck right into the old man’s palm. The terrifying aura that exuded was really strong and it pierced through his palm.

Li Xiandao broke free from the old man’s restrictive range.

But at the same time, the Ancient God Mountain exploded. The strength of the old man’s slap also smashed Li Xiandao’s mask.

Kacha!

Li Xiandao’s mask cracked and fell off, revealing his face. His tied hair was also smashed by that palm.

The wind blew and it untangled Li Xiandao’s hair. He stared coldly at the old man.

This was the strongest opponent he had faced up till now. He was at his weakest but Li Xiandao still couldn’t take him down.
