Chapter 313: Battling the Dao Children of the Top Three Sects!

Chapter 313: Battling the Dao Children of the Top Three Sects!

In the eyes of a top-tier Prodigy like Dao Child Leng Shang, there was no such thing as a sneak attack.

No matter how formidable the opponent or how unexpected the strike, in his eyes, it was like slow-motion playback—laughable and fragile.

Yet, the man before him forced him to take things seriously.

The extreme speed of that halberd strike had nearly caught him off guard.

Forcing himself to block the strike left the webbing between his thumb and forefinger split, with blood oozing out.

What dissatisfied him most was that the guy in front of him was actually only at the Early Stage of the King Realm!?

Qin Xuan raised his hand and summoned back the heavenly desolation halberd.

Weighing the great halberd in his hand, he looked down at Dao Child Leng Shang from above and said playfully, "Are you an idiot? I was right beside Feng Yao the whole time; didn't you notice earlier?"

"And you call yourself a Dao Child of the Top Three Sects? You've been making a scene for so long, yet you didn't even bother to survey the surroundings or gauge the strength of your enemy."

"You are nothing more than delicate flowers raised in a greenhouse."

Seeing this, Feng Yao anxiously called out a warning, "Young Master Qin, I appreciate your kindness!"

"But the opponents this time are not as simple as you think. Not only are these three prodigies in the top ten of the king ranking, but they also have the Top Three Sects standing behind them!"

"They are existences that even my Phoenix clan dare not easily offend."

She knew. She knew that Qin Xuan was a dark horse with no background and was unaware of the true foundation of the Top Three Sects.

The more she realized this, the less she wanted Qin Xuan to stick his neck out for her.

Not to mention that Qin Xuan was no match for these three; even if he could luckily fight to a draw, he would still be unable to withstand the pressure from the Top Three Sects!

Seeing this, Young Master Mo Yu sneered, "This human called Qin Xuan is truly arrogant beyond measure!"

"To dare to spout such wild words in front of three Dao Children of the Top Three Sects is simply seeking his own death!"

Young Master Long Xiao sighed with regret and shook his head helplessly, "You have some skill, but no brains. I had originally hoped to defeat you fair and square one day, but unfortunately, you are just looking for death!"

Learning Qin Xuan's name from the bystanders, Dao Child Leng Shang curled his lips into an exaggerated arc, his white hair fluttering behind his head. "No matter what your name is, no one will ever mention it again, because today, you are destined to die by my hand!"

Boom—Dao Child Leng Shang shot toward the hovering Qin Xuan like a soaring, gargantuan sword.

Qin Xuan opened his mouth, and the Candle Dragon Rage Flame erupted like dragon breath.

The terrifying high temperature spread for hundreds of miles, causing the ground to crack from the scorching heat. The space itself rippled and fractured.

Dao Child Leng Shang detested high temperatures and was forced to avoid its edge, dodging away and not looking back even as monstrous flames surged behind him.

Just as he was about to strike again, Qin Xuan shifted his gaze away from him, looked at Daoist Gu Jiuyou and Daoist Xu Baijin, and tilted his chin. "Didn't you two also want to bully people just a moment ago?"

"How is it that now that the person who truly obtained the Linglong Heavenly God's Legacy is standing before you, you have wilted like eggplants hit by frost?"

"This Earth Sect Dao Child is too weak; one person is not enough to be my enemy. Why don't all three of you come at me together? Perhaps then you might barely be able to contend with me."

Daoist Gu Jiuyou averted his gaze and urged Dao Child Leng Shang, "Are you a piece of trash?"

Daoist Xu Baijin also glared at Dao Child Leng Shang, clearly sharing the same thought as Daoist Gu Jiuyou.

"Since you are unwilling to make a move, then I shall see how long you can hide."

Qin Xuan took the lead and whistled towards Daoist Gu Jiuyou. He really wanted to know what kind of strength those in the top ten of the king ranking, and even the fourth, possessed. This would allow him to gauge just how powerful the top three of the king ranking were!

"Arrogant and ignorant!" Daoist Gu Jiuyou summoned his golden lotus.

Qin Xuan likewise brought out the ancient prison-suppressing tower. The two objects collided, and the golden lotus emitted a frustrated hum as it spun backward, the cracks on its surface becoming increasingly visible.

"Your Imperial Artifact isn't much!" Qin Xuan quipped, then immediately changed direction and charged again at the sharp-featured Daoist Xu Baijin.

Yet, the moment he drew close, a chill inexplicably crept up Qin Xuan's back. He dared not be careless and simultaneously activated the Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation and the Exquisite Heart-Burning Art.

He threw a punch, and three million units of Dragon-Elephant Strength erupted—earth-shattering, apocalyptic power howling forth. He collided with Daoist Xu Baijin's fist, triggering an earth-shaking tremor.

Both of them staggered back several steps. In Daoist Xu Baijin's calm, unruffled eyes, a hint of movement finally appeared. He looked at Qin Xuan, full of disbelief, and muttered, "Such strong punching power; to think you could stand on equal footing with me!"

"Where did this freak pop out from!?"

One must know that even if Daoist Gu Jiuyou and Dao Child Leng Shang joined forces, they could be suppressed by his strength. Yet Qin Xuan, alone, was able to take his punch head-on. How astonishing was that?

Qin Xuan was equally shocked, "What terrifying strength. Fortunately, I activated the Phoenix Nirvana Tribulation and the Exquisite Heart-Burning Art in advance, causing my combat power to surge twofold!"

"Otherwise, just this one punch would have likely blasted me half to death!"

In this battle, he had been a bit presumptuous. He had greatly underestimated Daoist Xu Baijin's strength. Compared to Daoist Xu Baijin, Young Master Long Xiao, Dragon Rage, and Young Master Mo Yu of the Heavenly Demon Clan were simply a cut below. The gap was so large it was unbelievable!

Even without using his two Divine Abilities, thinking he could defeat the Peak King Realm Daoist Xu Baijin while at the Early Stage of the King Realm was a fantasy!

"Prodigy? Freak!? Along this journey, I have slaughtered countless prodigies!" "Today, you will surely fall within the God Ruins!"

Dao Child Leng Shang summoned a sword, entirely crimson, with the internal meridians of the Blood Asura Clan branded upon it. It was the Blood Asura Clan's divine weapon, the asura sword. Monstrous Sword Intent surged, waves crashing against the sky.

Behind Dao Child Leng Shang, hundreds of thousands of asura swords seemed to hang inverted, then, like a galaxy pouring backward, they transformed into a torrential downpour, blasting toward where Qin Xuan stood.

Daoist Gu Jiuyou stepped on the golden lotus, taking one step after another, his Aura rising continuously. On his body, dense patterns surged increasingly, gathering at his forehead in a "Three Flowers Converging at the Crown" formation.

The sky was filled with golden lotus petals falling like a sea of flowers. Amidst the endless petals, a murderous intent, like a god-slaying formation, instantly began to operate with a hum.

With Daoist Xu Baijin's 'endorsement', both Daoist Gu Jiuyou and Dao Child Leng Shang set aside their contempt, wanting only to suppress Qin Xuan as soon as possible to uphold the prestige of being in the top ten of the king ranking!

Daoist Xu Baijin was more direct. His arm bones shone brightly, with one spot glowing the most brilliantly. Clearly, just like Qin Hao, he had transplanted some kind of precious bone, or perhaps possessed an Innate precious bone.

Waiting until his punching power accumulated to its absolute Peak, Daoist Xu Baijin took a step forward, covering the distance in an instant, "Take another punch from me!"

The three Dao Children of the Top Three Sects attacked simultaneously, going all out to encircle and annihilate Qin Xuan alone!

"Just in time!" Qin Xuan shouted. He wanted a grand and spectacular battle; he wanted a big show. Otherwise, how could he maximize the benefits of defeating a Child of Luck of blue quality?

He intended to slap Dao Child Leng Shang from the clouds into the dust in front of everyone.

Roar—Qin Xuan suddenly opened his mouth, and a dragon's roar reverberated. The hurricane whipped up by the Candle Dragon Rage Flame was tinged with raging fire. With the wind fueling the fire, a Candle Dragon manifested from the hurricane, flicked its tail fiercely, and, like a god of slaughter, charged into Daoist Gu Jiuyou's killing formation.

The Candle Dragon's roar shook the heavens, and the sky full of golden lotus petals hummed violently. The killing formation was strangulationing, tearing at the Candle Dragon until its scales shattered all over its body. However, the Candle Dragon formed from the Candle Dragon Rage Flame rampaged within the killing formation, causing the entire formation to tremble and hum violently as well.

With the explosion of the Candle Dragon, the killing formation that Daoist Gu Jiuyou had set up with all his might shattered with a roar, and the petals of the golden lotus filling the sky were reduced to scattered specks of golden light.

"Get lost for now!" Qin Xuan glanced at Daoist Xu Baijin and immediately threw the heavenly desolation halberd, the Heavenly Demon mark shining brightly. At the same time, Nirvana Fire coiled around the shaft of the halberd, as if a fire phoenix had descended in person. He collided head-on with Daoist Xu Baijin, once again kicking up monstrous waves.

Temporarily shaking off the two, Qin Xuan moved against the current through the sky full of asura sword shadows. Letting the sword light pierce through his body, his wounds were already healed by the Nirvana Fire before the blood could even ooze out.

When the sword shadows had completely disappeared, a smile played on the corners of Qin Xuan's mouth, his eyes full of swagger. He formed a fist seal, his Dragon-Elephant Strength boiling. With a punch, three million units of Dragon-Elephant Strength roared and smashed toward Dao Child Leng Shang with irresistible force.

Whoosh—Dao Child Leng Shang was struck by the Dragon-Elephant Strength, like a soul sinking in a sea of bitterness, flying backward uncontrollably. He was blasted over a hundred miles away, slamming straight into the barrier of the Seven-Colored Linglong Tower, sticking to it for a long while before slowly sliding down.

When he fell to the ground in a sorry state, all the bones in Dao Child Leng Shang's body had already shattered into powder, and he could no longer suppress the mouthful of crimson blood that sprayed from his mouth!

"How can he be this strong?" "Is this the Early Stage of the King Realm!?" Dao Child Leng Shang's red pupils trembled. It was as if Qin Xuan's appearance had given a new definition to the limits of the Early Stage of the King Realm.

"Let's see how long you can hold out!" Daoist Xu Baijin and Daoist Gu Jiuyou arrived from behind, joining forces with an overwhelming Aura!
