Chapter 1143: Third Level Martial Monarch Stage!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

From what Gold Thug remembered, his strength was on par with the black-clad old man if he did not use Berserk.

When Golf Thug unleashed his full power, he could mobilize the strength of two ancient black dragons with an additional 5,000 ancient horned dragons!

His battle experience and technique were far better than that of the black-clad old man due to his activities as a pirate in the southern area of Ruo Shui River.

Due to this reason, in terms of strength, he won the black-clad old man by a level.

However, once the black-clad old man entered Berserk mode, he had an additional strength of 3,000 ancient horned dragons. That meant he possessed the strength of two ancient black dragons and 8,000 ancient horned dragons in total.

The strength difference of 3,000 ancient horned dragons rendered his battle experience and technique useless. Crush!

He would be completely crushed!

The black-clad old man in Berserk mode could crush him completely!

However, he did not expect the next time he encountered the black-clad man, his strength would have risen to such a level.

After he used Berserk, his strength was 2,000 ancient horned dragons more compared to last time!

The black-clad old man heard Gold Thug’s exclamation and looked at him instantly before he asked in disdain, "Gold Thug, did you think I’ll be stuck at the same spot as you?"

After he spoke to Gold Thug, he immediately turned to look at the purple-clad young man standing nearby. His gaze was filled with a cold killing intent.

"You’ll die!" The black-clad old man hissed as he stared at Duan Ling Tian. His voice was so cold, it was as though it came from a thaw hole.

"You want me to die? Well, we’ll have to see whether you’re capable or not!" Although the black-clad old man had three silhouettes of ancient black dragons above his head, Duan Ling Tian’s expression remained unchanged as he looked fearlessly into the other party’s eyes.

"Master, I’ll help you!" At this moment, Gold Thug flew out and stood next to Duan Ling Tian before staring straight at the black-clad old man. He was the only Imperial left in the Berserk Mongrel Rodent Clan’s branch.

Although he knew his Master was strong and could mobilize the strength of two ancient black dragons and 8,000 ancient horned dragons when he unleashed his full power, the strength that the black-clad old man unleashed was still 2,000 ancient horned dragons more than his Master.

His Master’s sword skill was extraordinary, but he would most likely not be a match for the black-clad old man since there was a huge gap between their strength.

"Mind your own business... This old fellow is no cause for concern," Duan Ling Tian told Gold Thug. His words made it clear that he could deal with the black-clad old man without Gold Thug’s help.

"Master..." Upon hearing this, Gold Thug looked at Duan Ling Tian worriedly.

"Relax." Duan Ling Tian smile nonchalantly. His eyes were filled with confidence.

"Alright." After taking a deep breath, Gold Thug nodded his head. He chose to believe in Duan Ling Tian.

In the next instance, his body flashed as though he had transformed into a bolt of lightning and swept through the group of Berserk Mongrel Rodents at the side.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

...

After he had transformed into a human again, he wielded his sword.

Every time he slashed with his sword, he would easily slaughter a few Berserk Mongrel Rodents. The sword in his hand was like the grim reaper’s scythe.

In just a blink of an eye, many Berserk Mongrel Rodents died in his hands.

These Berserk Mongrel Rodents had not even stepped into the Void Transformation Stage. They were like ants in front of Gold Thug who was at the Sixth Level Demon Monarch Stage. They could not even withstand a single blow.

"Flee!"

...

In the face of this one-sided massacre, the group of Berserk Mongrel Rodents scattered all over the place.

"Help Gold Thug." At this moment, Duan Ling Tian’s voice entered Feng Tian Wu and Xiong Quan’s ears.

It was as though they had just received an order, they began to make their move. They helped Gold Thug to slaughter the Berserk Mongrel Rodents that were fleeing all over the place. It was a one-sided massacre.

The bodies of the Berserk Mongrel Rodents dropped down as though it was pouring rain at the places the two of them passed by.

"Die!" When the black-clad old man saw this bloody scene, his crimson eyes were filled with killing intent. He yelled loudly as he charged at Duan Ling Tian.

Although he was only making his first move, he had unleashed his full power.

Whoosh!

A strike that contained the strength of three ancient black dragons rushed menacingly toward Duan Ling Tian like a shadow. It was as though he was trying to kill Duan Ling Tian in one blow so he could go to his clansmen rescue.

Duan Ling Tian smirked in disdain in the face of the black-clad old man’s menacing attack.

In the next moment, he flicked the three-foot-long blade in his hand and met with the incoming attack.

Boom!

At this moment, a five-colored energy skyrocketed from Duan Ling Tian’s body. When the five-colored energy appeared, it transformed into the shape of a sword. It made Duan Ling Tian appear like a gigantic five-colored sword.

Whoosh!

Swish! A saber and a sword clashed violently. Both of them did not hold back.

The strike from the black-clad old man that was enveloped with a red light contained the strength of three ancient black dragons. A tyrannical aura swept past the places he slashed his sword.

Airwaves rolled and stirred as flurries of hurricane swept out. Saber marks could be clearly seen on the dead trees in the swamp.

Although the three-foot-long blade in Duan Ling Tian’s hand was unleashed after the enemy had struck, he was not at a disadvantage at all. The rolling energy from his body was continually released in waves.

The energy from his body set off a series of explosions. The airwaves stirred and created a flurry of hurricanes. The wind blew on him, causing his robes to flutter. He was a vision of grace and elegance.

Due to the fact that his opponent had struck first, the energy from the three-foot-long blade was released in a haste.

After it clashed with the saber in the black-clad old man’s hand, it dropped to a disadvantageous position.

The black-clad old man forced Duan Ling Tian to take two steps backward with a slash. He sneered. "You’re just a mantis trying to stop a chariot!"

After mocking Duan Ling Tian, the black-clad old man continued to thrust his saber forward as he tried to smash the three-foot-long blade in Duan Ling Tian’s hand and cut him in half.

However, his face turned pale soon after.

He discovered the energy from the three-foot-long blade in the purple-clad young man’s hand kept increasing as though there was no end to it. It kept crashing on his energy like the waves from the sea. It heavily pressured him.

Boom!

Finally, he felt the energy from the three-foot-long blade in the other party’s hand suddenly erupt and crush his own energy.

The energy had erupted so suddenly and so speedily that he had no time to react at all.

When he regained his senses, he only saw a flash before his eyes. He saw the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon that had gathered above his opponent’s head.

His eyes instantly widened.

It was also destined to be his last expression in life.

When he saw the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon above the purple-clad young man, a tiny line appeared in between his brows.

The line continued to spread and turned bloody.

Snap!

The black-clad old man’s body began to split into two.

Boom!

Before the old man’s body completely split into two, he was enveloped by the rolling five-colored energy and turned into dust.

There were no other ways more horrible than this to die!

Whoosh!

A breeze swept past, and all that was left was the purple-clad young man. His face was calm and serene as his purple robe fluttered lightly in the wind.

The sword in his hand had long disappeared.

The purple-clad young man was none other than Duan Ling Tian. He muttered under his breath, "That Sword Saint Feng Qing Yang really didn’t lie... I just barely scraped the surface of the Sword Dao he left behind, and my Sword Profundity has already been raised to such a level! This is extraordinary!"

"These two months are just like a dream." When he reached this part of the sentence, he sighed lightly. However, there was a shadow of a smile on his face.

Meanwhile, the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon above his head began to dissipate.

At this moment, one could still see the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon above his head clearly. There were three silhouettes of ancient black dragons and 5,000 silhouettes of ancient horned dragons.

In other words, when Duan Ling Tian made his move earlier, his entire strength was equivalent to the strength of three ancient black dragons and 5,000 ancient horned dragons!

Two months ago, when Duan Ling Tian encountered Gold Thug above the Yin Yang Sect’s large swift boat, his full strength was only equivalent to the strength of two ancient black dragons and 8,000 ancient horned dragons.

After two months, he had gained an additional 7,000 ancient horned dragons!

This was a miracle.

"This..." At this moment, Feng Tian Wu, Gold Thug, and Xiong Quan had completely slaughtered all the Berserk Mongrel Rodents in their surroundings. No longer distracted by their task, they immediately looked at Duan Ling Tian and were all attracted by the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon above his head that was about to dissipate.

Gulp!

Gold Thug and Xiong Quan gulped in unison. Shock and disbelief filled their faces and their eyes.

"In just two months, he managed to gain the strength of 7,000 ancient horned dragons? How did Master do that?" Gold Thug was baffled. His mouth was wide opened. Xiong Quan was in a similar state. "Y-Young Master only needs two months to raise his strength to such a level? It’s an additional 7,000 ancient horned dragons!"

Although Feng Tian Wu remained silent, there was a hint of bewilderment in the depth of her eyes.

Duan Ling Tian’s progress took everyone by surprise since they knew what his strength was like previously.

"Two weeks ago, the Rebirth Pill’s medicinal efficacy catalyzed my cultivation base and broke through to the Third Level Martial Monarch Stage in one fell swoop! The elevation added the strength of 1,000 ancient horned dragons to my Origin Energy. Along with the boost from the Quasi Royal Grade Spirit Sword, it’s an increase of 2,000 ancient horned dragons!" Duan Ling Tian felt like he was dreaming when he recalled the elevation of his strength two weeks ago.

Before he made a breakthrough to the Martial Monarch Stage, the Rebirth Pill’s medicinal efficacy still needed the spirit fruit’s medicinal efficacy to help catalyze it even though its strength was terrifying.

However, he did not need anything to catalyze it now.

"It only took me two months to break through to the Third Level from the First Level Martial Monarch Stage!" Duan Ling Tian did not know what to say about the progress that he had made in within this six months.

Whether it was Tian Wu or Xiong Quan, everyone was still at the First Level Martial Monarch Stage. They were not able to make any breakthrough at all.
