Painting of the Nine Immortals
chapter-501

"How is it not possible? You really are strong, but, you are only strong against others."

Standing within the heavenly light stood a man wearing a white robe that was dyed in blood. His hair tussled in the wind like an almighty celestial being with the temperament to rule the oceans, control the mountains, and lead the people.

He walked on leisurely. Every single step he took echoed throughout the sky like a drum that was beating on the youth's heart.

At the same time, the young man's confidence and arrogance crumbled down.

Just like Ling Xian said, the person here was strong. But he was merely strong against others.

To Ling Xian, he was nothing. Even the roc and the six armed gorilla were defeated – a three eyed Heaven's Favorite was nothing more than them.

"Yes, my abilities are only effective against others."

Laughing in agony, the three eyed youth had a look of bitterness. Even though he didn't want to accept the fact that he had lost, he had to. The punch just now had made it clear to him that the gap between him and Ling Xian was far too great. As he was crushed by this, he felt desperate as well.

The distance between them was one where he could only gawp at and long for, but could never keep up.

"If, I beg you to let me go, will you let me go?" The three eyed young man pleaded, hoping that Ling Xian would spare his life.

"What do you think?"

Ling Xian's expression was cold, "We are already enemies when we came. On top of that, you challenged me. Do you think I would let you go?"

"You are not going to. I am dreaming."

The three eyed young man had a look of bitterness as he smiled in pain, "To be fair, if our roles were flipped, I wouldn't let you go neither."

"Exactly. If you have defeated me like this and wouldn't let me go, why would I let you go?" Ling Xian spoke softly, his expression was calm.

After experiencing so much obstacles, his original values never changed. However, he now has an even more thorough understanding of how cruel this world is. After that, this person was his enemy and had treated him like that. Why would he let that go?

"Then, I only have one choice left." The three eyed young man wiped off his look of grief and replaced it with a look of resolution and coldness.

Seeing this, Ling Xian raised an eyebrow, "It seems like you want to give one last attempt."

"That's right. If I am going to die, why would I sit and watch?"

The three eyed young man snickered. The vertical eye of his suddenly exuded a million rays of light. Every single ray was like a sharp sword that were heading towards Ling Xian.

"You last struggle will only make you look desperate."

Against the thousand rays of light, Ling Xian's expression remained calm and unchanging. He merely formed a hand seal that called out to the Disorder Conquering Fists. He then slowly swung a punch.

Just like that, the countless number of blades evaporated. The three eyed young man, just like Ling Xian had said, became desperate.

He was expressionless as he stared at the devil like man before him. His entire body was shaking by now.

"It's over. Don't worry, you won't be lonely on your way to hell." Ling Xian softly sighed and quickly spun out another punch that broke all the veins inside the person.

"Another down. Now, let me begin my hunting."

Mumbling, Ling Xian disappeared right where he was. He planned on continuing his rampage and finishinf up all the foreign kinds.

Against the foreign kinds who wanted to kill him, he wasn't going to forgive them. If he chooses to be kind now, then he will die in their hands later!

Therefore, in a flash, Ling Xian landed in the next room.

With his terrifying capabilities, as long as the opponent was not on the same level as the roc, nobody else was his opponent.

Even though the foreign kinds were naturally stronger than the humankind, it was only the case for the average population. If it applied to everyone, the humankind would already be extinct. Without a doubt, Ling Xian was one of the very few exceptions.

His physique alone had been through harsh training and therefore definitely did not pale next to others of the same level. In terms of his cultivation level, he was once in the undefeatable realm of the meditation and the foundation level, meaning he had very sturdy footings.

As for battling experiences, Ling Xian has been on the journey for a long time and has encountered countless number of powerful opponents.

Finally, for techniques, he is the inheritor of the Disorder Conquering Fists. Besides, his Eyes of Execution alone is enough to win against all enemies.

From all of the above, a shocking conclusion can be drawn.

Ling Xian was powerful in all aspects. He had broken the curse of humans being born weaker than others and possessed the right to peer down onto even the royals and challenge them!

Of course, this was all in theory. The royals wouldn't be royals if they weren't unimaginably powerful.

But one thing was for sure. Other than the rock kind Heaven's Favorite and the other unknown enemy, nobody else can fight against Ling Xian.

Therefore, after he stepped into this room, he made merely a few moves to slaughter the one inside.

This result soon became the norm. Every time Ling Xian stepped into a room, he would use a few moves to end the life of a powerful Heaven's Favorite.

It was as easy to him as eating and drinking.

What could they do? In the entire Imperishable Temple, who qualified to be his opponent?

Just like that, Ling Xian made his moves aggressively and ruthlessly. He swarmed room to room and killed one man after another. Every single battle merely lasted a few breaths.

This number can made everyone shocked and scared!

Every single being, before death, felt hopeless and regretful. Hopeless because of Ling Xian's terrifying capabilities, regretful because they realized they never should've provoked this demon.

If those being didn't have bad thoughts against Ling Xian first, they would've all had a bright future. Sadly, there are no "if's" and they had to die full of regret.

After all the foreign kinds were killed, Ling Xian was now drenched in blood. Like a demon bathed in blood, the killer's intent he exuded made everyone desperate.

It had only been moments since he made his first kill.

This was another shocking statistic!

"It's finally over. Including the three human Heaven's Favorites, there were 17 of them." Ling Xian breathed out a mouthful of murky air, "Now there are not a lot of foreign kinds left. But what's critical to me is the few outstanding ones."

"Whatever, I will return to the grand hall first."

Sighing, Ling Xian flapped around his sleeve. Instantly, all the rooms disappeared and the grand hall reappeared.

The moment he showed up, the seven to eight Heaven's Favorites of the humankind were stunned.

They peeked at the blood soaked Ling Xian and the 17 corpses. Coldness swam through their spine, from their feet up their brains.

Instantly, everyone shifted their gaze towards Ling Xian and five words appeared in their brains.

This man is undefeatable solo!
