Chapter 1339: Gale Slaying Imperial Spear

It was noon.

This was the time when all outer sect disciples rested. Those carrying out daily duties in the various halls put down their work and rushed toward the Life or Death Platform, unwilling to miss this wager duel.

Although the outcome seemed almost certain, they still wanted to see whether Ling Feng, who had been defying the heavens since the day he joined the outer sect, could continue being so outrageously unstoppable.

They also wanted to see whether Meng Guizang, Ninth Tianjian and a powerhouse standing at the peak of the outer sect, could completely crush him.

Early on, Meng Guizang was already standing on the Life or Death Platform. He wore shining silver armor and held a long spear. He looked like an unrivaled war god.

Unlike ordinary outer sect disciples, the ten who occupied the sky-tier Mingjian Towers enjoyed absolute freedom in cultivation. They could also freely accept sect missions and accumulate contribution points.

Ordinary disciples, on the other hand, could only receive tasks assigned by the sect. Occasionally they might gain extra contribution points through missions, which was considered great luck.

Of course, inner sect disciples could also directly select outer sect disciples to assist them on missions so they could gain extra contribution points. However, that required connections.

While Meng Guizang waited, Ling Feng finally arrived!

"He is here!"

"He really dared to come!"

"What choice does he have? The wager duel is already set. If he does not come, it means he admits defeat and Meng Guizang can still take his life."

At the edge of the Life-or-Death Platform stood three disciples with powerful auras. They watched with amused expressions while the surrounding outer sect disciples did not dare approach within ten zhang.

These three were all sky-tier Mingjian Tower masters and ranked within the top ten of the outer sect.

Because one of the duelists was Meng Guizang, Ninth Tianjian, several of the top ten had come to watch.

"Meng Guizang's aura has grown much stronger. It seems this trip brought him a great opportunity," said a man in a green robe.

"Yes. He already has the strength to challenge the fifth place," said a woman in an emerald green dress.

"Is that so?" The man in black sneered. "Senior Sister Ji, are you saying he is stronger than me?"

This man in black was Zhu Lianshan, ranked sixth among the Tianjian. He clearly disagreed.

"He can already last ten moves against me. How many moves can you last?" Ji Rushuang replied calmly.

Zhu Lianshan's pupils shrank. "How is that possible? He can last ten moves against you?"

Ji Rushuang ranked second in the outer sect and was also at the fifth level of the Human Emperor. Her strength could even suppress some peak Human Emperor elders!

She could have entered the inner sect long ago but swore that unless she surpassed First Tianjian, she would never enter the inner sect.

First Tianjian was an even more terrifying existence who had dominated the outer sect for ten years. No one could surpass him, yet he gave up the chance to enter the inner sect and remained here. No one knew why.

Some said it was because he preferred to be the head of a small group rather than the tail of a great one, but the gap between the outer and inner sect was obvious. There had to be another reason.

Under everyone's gaze, Ling Feng stepped onto the Life-or-Death Platform at an unhurried pace.

Below the platform, Fang Wen, Lu Yu, Wang Zhen and several other friends were tense. Most of the outer sect disciples from the Dan Ding Grand Hall silently prayed that Ling Feng would survive.

As for winning, that was considered impossible!

Even Ye Xiong, the witness, felt uncertain for Ling Feng and resolved that no matter what happened, he would try to preserve Ling Feng's life.

After all, Ling Feng was his guiding light in the path of alchemy!

"

Hmph,

you finally came," Meng Guizang said with disdain. "You little Spiritual Sea Realm brat wasted so much of my time."

"I gave you three days to settle your affairs. As your senior brother I was already merciful!"

Cold light flickered from his spear as boundless killing intent swept across the platform.

"

Oh?

" Ling Feng said with a raised brow. "I thought you spent those three days preparing your own coffin! With that much time it should be a fine gold wooden coffin! Do not worry, after you die I will bury you with full honors and thank you for the Earth Emperor Token."

"Clever tongue!" Meng Guizang snarled. His face twisted with rage. "I will cut out your tongue first!"

"I am quite satisfied with every part of my body and do not need replacements. Senior Brother Meng, on the other hand, looks rather unpleasant. You should be remade so you do not scare children!"

Ling Feng raised an eyebrow and smiled. With just a few words, he sent Meng Guizang into a towering rage.

When it came to sharp tongued mockery, Ling Feng had already inherited the Despicable Donkey's art to perfection.

"

Pfft!

"

The crowd burst into laughter and shock.

This brat truly wanted to die faster!

With such blatant provocation, even if it were not Meng Guizang, anyone else would have felt the urge to chop him twice.

"Die!" Meng Guizang roared and thrust his spear forward.

"Gale Slaying Imperial Spear!"

The silver spear swept out and countless cold lights bloomed like stars. Five brilliant points flashed and vanished like meteors, striking toward Ling Feng's vital points.

Zhu Lianshan's eyelids twitched violently. "Half a year ago he could only strike four star points. Now he strikes five in a single move. His true strength must already exceed seven star points."

At these words, cold sweat streamed down Zhu Lianshan's forehead. He took a deep breath and spoke slowly. "I am no longer his match!"

Ji Rushuang and the other man in a green-robe both revealed solemn expressions. At Meng Guizang's current rate of progress, it would not be long before he became a formidable opponent for them.

On the Life-or-Death Platform, Ling Feng faced Meng Guizang's moves head on and his pupils contracted slightly.

Meng Guizang truly possessed extraordinary strength!

They were both mid tier Human Emperors, yet if Meng Guizang made a move, he could probably kill the Ice Emperor of Tianhuang City and the others in a single strike.

He was indeed worthy of being a disciple of the Dongling Immortal Pool. Even if he was not considered top tier there, in the outside world he could certainly dominate a whole region!

However, although Meng Guizang was a genius, Ling Feng was a monster.

A peerless monster that appeared only once in ten thousand years!

A faint curve lifted the corner of Ling Feng's lips. Yin and yang fish swirled within his eyes. The divine inscriptions of the Human Dao gathered and the power of Insightful Replication[1] was activated.

Such a peerless and profound spear art will not go to waste. I, Ling Feng, will claim it for myself!
