Chapter 74

"Even the will of a Heaven-Earth Realm king cannot destroy me!"

As Ling Dao fell, his will clashed with the will of the Heaven-Earth Realm king. If it were the complete will of a Heaven-Earth Realm king, it would have instantly crushed Ling Dao's will. After all, Ling Dao was only at the True Qi Realm, and his will was still far too weak.

Fortunately, this Heaven-Earth Absolute Killing Talisman had existed for countless years, and even with the will of a Heaven-Earth Realm king, it was far from as powerful as it once was. If Zhong Feifei had not pushed Ling Dao off the cliff, it would have taken him much longer to break through this will.

But now, his strong desire to survive had unprecedentedly strengthened his will. When he had fallen about 150 meters, he had already shattered the will of the Heaven-Earth Realm king and was able to control his body.

Other True Qi Realm martial artists would surely die under the Heaven-Earth Absolute Killing Talisman. Even the residual will of a Heaven-Earth Realm king was enough to destroy the consciousness of a True Qi Realm martial artist. But Ling Dao was different; his will was many times stronger than that of other True Qi Realm martial artists. Although he was not as strong as a Heaven-Earth Realm king, the residual will of the king could not do much to him.

The moment he regained control, he tried to manipulate his body and performed the Eight Steps of Star Chasing in mid-air. The interior of the narrow pass was already very tight, and now that he moved, he was even closer to the cliff face. He then forcefully inserted the Lieryang Sword into the cliff face.

The intense friction between the Lieryang Sword and the cliff face produced sparks, which significantly slowed his descent. If he had fallen directly, he would have surely died. This way, he could save his life.

Soon, he was close to the ground. Even though his descent had been slowed, he still hit the ground with great force. Falling from a height of 300 meters was no joke; he had truly brushed with death.

"Spit!"

The intense impact made Ling Dao spit out a large mouthful of blood. Fortunately, his physical body was strong enough, and he only suffered minor injuries. Although he was only at the True Qi Realm, his physical strength was comparable to that of a Chongxiao Realm martial artist.

"I have great fortune and a strong life, so you will be the ones to die!"

A trace of anger flashed in Ling Dao's eyes. He had saved Zhong Feifei and Chunlan twice, but they not only did not show gratitude, but also repaid his kindness with treachery, using the Heaven-Earth Absolute Killing Talisman to push him off the cliff, trying to kill him.

He did not choose to heal his injuries; such minor injuries did not significantly affect him. After a brief recovery, he walked towards the foot of the mountain. Zhong Feifei and Chunlan would have to pass there if they wanted to go down the mountain, as they had come up from there and were not familiar with other routes.

If Zhong Feifei and Chunlan knew that Ling Dao was still alive, they would definitely take another route down the mountain. Unfortunately, they were too confident and underestimated Ling Dao. Such a scheme would have killed a peak True Qi Realm martial artist, but Ling Dao survived.

...

At the top of the mountain,

"Miss, is this a mid-grade sword technique?"

Chunlan looked at the cloth in Zhong Feifei's hand and asked softly. It was because of this mid-grade sword technique that Zhong Feifei had fled from the Heavy Sword Sect. It was also because of this mid-grade sword technique that Zhong Feifei had unhesitatingly used the Heaven-Earth Absolute Killing Talisman to kill Ling Dao.

Zhong Feifei and Chunlan had already taken the antidote, and the poison in their bodies had dissipated. They only needed some time to recover their strength. The members of the Poison Snake Gang carried the antidote with them when they released the poison, otherwise, they would have harmed themselves.

"Stop asking questions that don't concern you! You just need to follow me back to the Heavy Sword Sect. This time, I have done a great deed, and you will naturally benefit from it too!"

Zhong Feifei was extremely pleased. A mid-grade sword technique was already enough to be a sect's ultimate technique for a Ninth Rank force. If her father knew about this, he would be overjoyed. This way, her father's efforts in raising her would not have been in vain.

"Yes, Miss!"

Chunlan curiously glanced at the cloth in Zhong Feifei's hand, then looked down and said no more. Zhong Feifei nodded in satisfaction and then began to study the cloth. Unfortunately, with her abilities, she could not understand or practice the mid-grade sword technique at all.

"Wind and Thunder Three Styles!"

The mid-grade sword technique was called Wind and Thunder Three Styles, containing the power of wind and thunder. Neither of these powers was something Zhong Feifei had mastered. She sighed and then folded the cloth, putting it in her bosom. The large sword could be carried by Chunlan, but the mid-grade sword technique had to be kept close to her body and could not be entrusted to Chunlan.

After about half an hour, feeling that their strength had recovered, Zhong Feifei and Chunlan walked down the mountain. Neither of them knew that a killing god was waiting for them at the foot of the mountain. If they had known, they would never have dared to go down.

"Miss, are we going back now?"

From a distance, Ling Dao heard Chunlan's voice, and a cold smile appeared on his lips. Zhong Feifei and Chunlan had tried to kill him, and they should have known what would happen now, since they had failed to kill him.

"Of course, we are going back. The outside world is too dangerous. Didn't you see that we almost fell into the tiger's mouth twice? It was all thanks to that foolish boy; otherwise, how could I have obtained the mid-grade sword technique so easily?"

There was a clear note of satisfaction in Zhong Feifei's voice. In her view, this success was entirely due to her strategy. Unfortunately, she did not know that her words were making the killing intent in Ling Dao's eyes even stronger!

"What a foolish boy, indeed very foolish!"

Ling Dao's voice made Zhong Feifei and Chunlan's faces change. This place was desolate, and the sound of someone speaking was already strange. Moreover, they recognized this voice very well; it was Ling Dao's voice.

Unfortunately, when Zhong Feifei and Chunlan looked around, they saw nothing. Ling Dao was sitting on a tree branch, and they only looked at the ground, so they naturally did not see him.

"It seems we are having hallucinations, it scared me!"

"Yes, yes, I thought it was real, it scared me to death!"

After Zhong Feifei and Chunlan finished speaking, they looked at each other. Both of them were terrified, their eyes wide open. If one person had a hallucination, it would be understandable, but for two people to have the same hallucination at the same time was incomprehensible.

Just as they were terrified, a young figure jumped down from the tree. The familiar face and figure made Zhong Feifei and Chunlan's hearts tremble.

"You didn't die?"

"How could you possibly not die?"
