A young figure with gray hair flashed and appeared in front of Xuan Na.
Seeing this figure, Xuan Na's heart, which had jumped into her throat, finally settled back down.
She felt a wave of weakness wash over her, her legs almost giving out. An inexplicable sense of dread filled her.
Ahead, a fearsome black mist churned, transforming into a figure of immense power – the Blackwater Martial Lord.
Two brilliant, sharp gazes shot out, fixing on Ling Fan. He roared, "Boy, I haven't even made a move against you, and you dare to disrupt my good deed? Are you tired of living! Do you know who I am? I am the third king of the Eastern Domain's Three Kings Hall, the Blackwater Martial Lord. Do you not kneel and await your death!"
Ling Fan dug into his ear and said indifferently, "Blackwater Martial Lord? What kind of dog is that? Never heard of it. Take these trash from Giant Whale City and scram from Xuan Yue Island, or I'll grant you death!"
As soon as Ling Fan spoke.
The entire battlefield fell silent.
Everyone, whether from Giant Whale City or Xuan Yue Island, looked at Ling Fan with shocked and disbelieving expressions.
How could this guy dare?
That was the Blackwater Martial Lord, ranked twenty-first on the Eastern Domain's Martial Lord rankings, a peak Golden Core realm expert.
It was no exaggeration to say that those who ranked in the top thirty of the Martial Lord list were all powerful beings, nearly invincible in the Golden Core realm, with at least peak Golden Core cultivation.
On the Giant Whale City side, Ding Hui, Fan Bai, Jing Miao, and the others were overjoyed.
They had been worried that the Blackwater Martial Lord wouldn't make a move.
Now, this Ling Fan had completely angered the Blackwater Martial Lord. Given the Blackwater Martial Lord's violent temper, he might not be satisfied with just killing Ling Fan, and might even take the opportunity to wipe out everyone on Xuan Yue Island!
Although they could still level Xuan Yue Island without the Blackwater Martial Lord, having a peak Golden Core expert like him would save them a lot of trouble and reduce casualties.
They couldn't have wished for anything more.
On the other side.
Xuan Ye, Li Mobing, and the others cursed Ling Fan in their hearts.
This ignorant fellow, if the Blackwater Martial Lord wanted to abduct Xuan Na, he should have let him. Why did you provoke him? Now, with the Blackwater Martial Lord's rage, not only will Xuan Na not be saved, but everyone on Xuan Yue Island will die even faster!
"You arrogant brat, I want to see how you, a mere ant in the Giant Spirit realm, can do anything to me, no matter your skills!"
The Blackwater Martial Lord snorted coldly, and his terrifying peak Golden Core cultivation instantly erupted. In an instant, a fearsome pressure enveloped the entire battlefield. Everyone felt that heavy oppression, like heavenly might, making it impossible to breathe.
Streams of black water laws, like fatal chains emerging from the Yellow Springs of the Nine Nether Purgatory, spread out from the Blackwater Martial Lord's body.
"Die!"
The Blackwater Martial Lord let out a low cry and pointed a finger. Instantly, streaks of incomparably evil black laws pierced through, carrying immense power capable of killing late Golden Core realm experts, and slammed towards Ling Fan.
Just as everyone thought Ling Fan was doomed, to be blown apart by these powerful black laws in mid-air.
An astonishing scene unfolded.
Ling Fan stood proudly in the void, stepping forward to meet the endless black laws. The formidable laws, as thick as black dragons, struck Ling Fan's body, but instead of piercing him, they were repelled.
This scene stunned countless onlookers!
That was the law power of a peak Golden Core expert! Each law was as vast as a heavenly pillar, and any single law possessed the terrifying power to bind the heavens and trap the White Tiger. Let alone the flesh and blood of a martial artist, even a low-grade Earth-tier defensive armor would struggle to withstand its terrifying might.
Yet, it couldn't even break the skin of this young man.
What kind of terrifying, heaven-defying physique was this?
Could this kid have cultivated from a supreme profound gold and taken human form?
The Blackwater Martial Lord's pupils contracted sharply. He finally began to take Ling Fan seriously.
"Boy, it seems you are no ordinary person! You hold more secrets than I imagined. Your cultivation can contend with Golden Core, but your physical body is actually this powerful. If I can obtain your body cultivation method, becoming a Quasi-Saint will be a mere thought, and even becoming a Saint might be possible!"
The Blackwater Martial Lord's eyes suddenly flashed with an incomparably greedy light.
More and thicker martial laws surged from him, like countless black dragons, filling the entire sky. At that moment, all the living beings on Xuan Yue Island saw the Blackwater Martial Lord's world-dominating presence and fell into utter despair!
This was the true strength that allowed the Blackwater Martial Lord to rank twenty-first on the Martial Lord list.
Swish!
The Blackwater Martial Lord casually pointed a finger, and a thick law chain whipped down, like a heavenly pillar toppling in the west, smashing towards Ling Fan's head.
Ling Fan's body flickered, and he dodged it.
This law chain struck the ground, tearing open a massive rift thousands of meters long!
Dozens of experts from Giant Whale City and Xuan Yue Island were caught in the aftermath, their bodies instantly pulverized, leaving no trace of their remains.
The Blackwater Martial Lord's eyes remained unfazed, as if he hadn't just killed dozens of martial artists, but had merely crushed dozens of ants.
As his fingers danced, the countless thick law chains behind him intertwined to form a vast net, covering Ling Fan.
"Die."
The Blackwater Martial Lord sneered, and the net formed by the laws descended upon Ling Fan, its opening closing and engulfing his figure.
The Blackwater Martial Lord let out a cold laugh. This kid still dared to be arrogant with him. Did he really think that a top-tier expert on the Martial Lord list like himself was a pushover?
The experts of Xuan Yue Island felt a chill in their hearts seeing the smile on the Blackwater Martial Lord's face.
Could it be that Ling Fan had already met his end?
At this moment.
The smile on the Blackwater Martial Lord's face suddenly froze.
From within the vast net woven from thick black laws, an unstoppable, brilliant fist light pierced through.
Thirty-six Heavenly Glimpse Techniques, the sixth.
True Martial Fist!
As Ling Fan condensed the flow of myriad laws and his cultivation further increased, the power of his Heavenly Glimpse Techniques also surged.
This punch seemed to split the heavens and the earth. Rolling fist light, vast as a heavenly river, directly blasted open the Blackwater Martial Lord's law confinement.
The fist light continued its momentum, landing on the Blackwater Martial Lord's body, directly blasting him into the ground.
At that moment.
The entire scene fell silent!
Everyone was dumbfounded, unable to speak.
That was the Blackwater Martial Lord!
One of the strongest top Martial Lords in the Eastern Domain.
Yet today, in full view of everyone, he was sent flying by a young man.
"Boy, I will tear you to shreds to vent my hatred!"
The Blackwater Martial Lord's enraged roar echoed from beneath the ground. Endless black water spread out from underground, as if opening a passage to the Yellow Springs of the Nine Nether Purgatory. The numerous law chains on the Blackwater Martial Lord's body merged into a colossal pillar of law, seemingly reaching the heavens. The Blackwater Martial Lord's cultivation at this moment soared to a terrifying, boundless level, faintly touching upon higher realms.
As that colossal pillar of law merged into the Blackwater Martial Lord's body, he seemed to transform into the vessel and embodiment of martial laws at this moment, emerging from the ground with infinite pressure.
