Chapter 446: Fighting under Pressure

Translator: _Tat_ Editor: Fish_Creek

In the air, Ling Xian's black hair was tussling in the wind like an undefeatable God of Warrior.

His left hand held tightly onto the Sword and his right hand gripped onto the Halberd. On top of his head floated the heavenly mirror that made him look like a celestial being. Especially after he defended against the four Deputies' attack, he appeared even more pressuring!

This person… is strong!

The four Deputies felt a shudder down their spine as their expression solidified into seriousness. The Qi they were emitting was getting more horrifying as well.

After that one rebuttal, they had now grasped onto Ling Xian's terror and realized that his power was beyond their imagination. Thus, they had stopped feeling reckless and decided to give their all in this fight.

Seeing this, Ling Xian raised an eyebrow and pointed at the four Deputies, "Be prepared to fight with your lives. Your current capabilities cannot win against me."

Picking up the disdain in Ling Xian's tone, the four Deputies were enraged. As nobles of the city, their respective Clans controlled the land. Who dared to speak against them in such a manner?

On top of that, they were highly capable. In the entire Zhou Dynasty, nobody dared to treat them so lightly!

Yet here they were, being overlooked by Ling Xian. How could they not be enraged?

Just then, thunderous amount of energies began to shoot out of the sky, shaking up the space and dispersed the clouds in the sky.

"Ling Xian, don't you dare to be too arrogant! Though you are now in the completion levelled, to us, you are still an ant." Deputy Xiao Yao had a cold expression. Though he looked as calm as usual, there was a turmoil going on internally.

Not even in his dreams did he think Ling Xian would've grown this fast!

"Ant… it's been so long since I've heard that word."

A cold snicker flashed across Ling Xian's lips. He had unfinished business against Deputy Xiao Yao and he was stopped from pursuing after Ling Tian Xian. This had caused him great rage and thus, he glared at the four of them and stated an arrogant statement.

"To you senior, I am an ant. But to me, you are ants as well."

As his voice trailed off, the four deputies were infuriated as they all began to display their techniques and rushed over to Ling Xian.

These people were completion levelled powerhouses of the completion level and had experienced hundreds of battles. Therefore, their teamwork was flawless and insanely powerful!

If this was anyone else in the intermediate stage of the completion level, he would've been killed already. Sadly, they were up against Ling Xian, who was beyond their imagination!

"Good. Let me relief my anger on you!" Ling Xian's expression was cold. Between movements, his Halberd of the Divine Warrior began to emit countless amount of heavenly light that flooded the four deputies.

Boom!

His Halberd swept across and everything within eight miles became tarnished as a result!

In that second, the four deputies' expression changed. Knowing that there was no way to hide from this attack, they chose to dodge.

Sadly, Ling Xian's speed was unmatchable and how could they hide from it?

"Kill!"

After a loud shout, Ling Xian's long Halberd sliced across and stunned the four deputies before him!

In that second, the four deputies once again had a change of expression as they all unleashed their best techniques in attempt to defend against Ling Xian.

"You think you can stop me? Keep going!"

His black hair was in a disarray – Ling Xian was truly mad now. Murky Qi filled the air and eventually concentrated on the black blade. In an instant, the strength of this God of Warrior increased by 30 percent. After one shot, it pierced across the space!

"The Motionless Shadow of Light!"

Deputy Chang An screamed and finally unleashed his famous technique. Both of his hands formed into a seal and light of seven different colors exploded across and surrounded the space.

The light appeared gentle and soft, but in reality was powerful enough to cause serious damage.

"Hmmph, if I could break this technique seven years ago, I can still break this technique today!"

After coldly hissing, Ling Xian lifted up his Halberd of the Divine Warrior. As if he had a hold of a giant mountain, he smashed towards Deputy Chang An!

Immediately, the seven colored layer of light cracked. Then, right before the pair of eyes that were in disbelief, the layer of light crumbled.

In the next second, he flung out and puked out a mouthful of blood.

This turn of events stunned the remaining three. They didn't think that the most powerful defensive technique would crumble under Ling Xian after one hit!

However, though shocked, they knew it was not a time to pause. Then began their attack together. Terrifying vibrations filled the air and caused disruption in all directions!

"Whoever stops me dies!"

Ling Xian's black hair continued to tussle as if he was the reincarnation of a devil. As he fought against the three deputies with his Halberd, his Mirror draped down enough heavenly light to turn the night into day.

BOOOM!

The light of spirituality sliced across and the entire space cracked like a broken mirror. Deputy Chang An's body was also smashed in that instant, leaving behind trails of blood.

Dead.

The prominent Deputy Chang An had died.

This pained the remaining three deputies. They had also realized a terrifying reality, a reality that was hard for them to accept.

The distance between them and Ling Xian was like the cloud and the earth, they should not even be compared.

"Dammit, we are all of the completion level, why is he so much stronger?"

The three deputies were now terrified as the battle continued. Since the beginning, they had not had the upper hand and had been suppressed so much that they could not even counterattack!

To know that Ling Xian was fighting solo against four enemies. Despite this, he was still having the advantage, how could the others not be fearful?

"Dammit. Stop hiding your best techniques. Let's use what we've got to kill this person!" Deputy Xiao Yao gritted his teeth as he continued to defend against Ling Xian's fatal attacks.

Hearing this, Deputy Chi and Deputy Zhan no longer hesitated. They used all their strength to dodge Ling Xian's Halberd and unleashed their techniques. The former summoned a few meters tall giant, the latter created a sea of fire.

"Arrival of the Warrior!"

"The Boiling Sea!"

The two deputies shouted out their strongest techniques. Because they fed onto each other's energy and were working together, the display of power was extremely shocking and frightening!

However, against this powerful attack, Ling Xian remained calm and did not at all waver. Instead, he showed no trace of caring.

Really, he did not care.

"Break."

After uttering a single word, Ling Xian manipulated his perfect Dan. The Halberd of the Divine Warrior and the Burnished Mirror of Spirituality both released an even more aggressive amount of light that pushed back the enemies!

Immediately, the giant crackled down and the sea of fire disappeared.

Both Deputy Chi and Deputy Zhan puked out blood and were flung outwards by meters.

It was obvious. The winner had been determined.

"Lost…"

Deputy Zhan and Deputy Chi mumbled. The determined look disappeared from their eyes and Deputy Chi's red hair faded. After that attack just now, they now shared something in common.

They were now both pale faced as they struggled with breathing, and the way they looked at Ling Xian was full of fear.

Then, the two of them heard a statement of nonchalance. A statement that forced them to tighten their fists before reluctantly releasing.

"Get the hell out of my face. I won't kill you. But if you dare to interrupt what is going to happen, then you can join him in hell."
