Chapter 320 - Killing A Celestial With One Sword
Chapter 320: Killing A Celestial With One Sword
In the city, Tian Guangming guessed Ma Qing’s background. His heart was like a raging ocean and he was filled with shock.
At that moment, Tian Guangming understood why Ma Qing was considered old with low cultivation and not much remaining lifespan.
But the Ma Qing he met was young and at peak Boundless Realm. He might have been someone who would even reach the next realm.
This was totally different from what the contract introduced.
At the start, Tian Guangming thought that Seven got it wrong, but now it seemed like it was Ma Qing himself.
He was a Celestial in the body of a human. This time, the celestial paid a huge price to let Ma Qing’s old body recover to his peak.
But!!!
But!!!!!
But this Celestial didn’t care about the Bank of the Universe at all. He didn’t care about the Bank of the Universe’s revenge and ignored the contract. Only now did he finally pay a heavy price.
Ma Qing stared at Tian Guangming and gritted his teeth, “Do you know?”
“I could have cultivated well and recovered to emperor-level strength, gotten the key, and then broken away from this body.” Ma Qing hollered. Only Tian Guangming could hear his voice. However, due to his rage, his voice seemed stuck in his throat. It sounded horrifying and ear-piercing like blades rubbing against each other.
10,000 years ago, an emperor headed into Heaven Mountain Mountian Range and wanted to occupy Heaven Mountain. In the end, he faced Murong Longcheng and was pinned down and died on the mountain.
To others, it seemed like an ordinary battle over territory.
But people who knew the inner secrets wouldn’t believe that an emperor would get pinned down on the mountain and die just fighting for territory.
Ma Qing was the previous emperor. When he was pinned, his soul managed to escape and he attached to this body. He managed to sign a contract with the Bank of the Universe and received a treasure to recover his body. He also needed to pay back 100 times more treasures 10 years later.
But he broke the contract.
After his soul recovered, he abandoned this body and was brought back to the Celestial World by his elders.
This contract was broken 10,000 years ago.
During those 10,000 years, although Ma Qing’s cultivation wasn’t high, because of his celestial spirit, he managed to survive stubbornly.
This was also the reason why Seven felt that this was the easiest contract.
If Ma Qing didn’t come down to the Nine Skies, then this contract would have really been the easiest.
Unfortunately, after 10,000 years, Ma Qing came down once more.
This time he didn’t choose another body and chose to use his body from 10,000 years ago.
As this body was too old, Ma Qing used his own celestial source to recover his old body.
This recovery seemed simple but it strengthened Ma Qing’s connection with this body.
Just now, the Heaven Emperor Brush’s strike made Ma Qing desperate. His spirit source activated the celestial artifact twice to block the Heaven Emperor Brush’s attacks.
But…
This strengthened the connection even more. This body was smacked down from its peak. It was extremely old and his soul was also weakened.
If the body was strong, he was strong. If the body was weak, then he was weak!
At that moment, Ma Qing wanted to skin Tian Guangming alive to vent the anger in his heart.
He was a celestial!
He had huge potential in the Celestial World and a brilliant future. Ma Qing could easily obtain invincible strength.
But the key was that he had to go back.
But now, Ma Qing couldn’t go back!
Even if the Celestial World was opened, he wouldn’t be able to fly with this old body.
The only way he could go back was if his master came down to bring him up.
How would Ma Qing not be angry?
He walked step by step towards Tian Guangming and his expression became more and more terrifying. He shouted like a demon, “You destroyed me but I won’t kill you that easily. I will slice you into many pieces and then swallow you mouth by mouth. Then, I will burn your soul in hellfire for tens of thousands of years. I will have different methods to torture you every day.”
Ma Qing stared at Tian Guangming with a cold gaze. As his future was destroyed, he entered a maniacal state.
Tian Guangming heard that threat and his expression changed. But shortly after, he laughed.
“What are you laughing at?” Ma Qing hollered in rage. He ran forwards and punched.
Peng!
Ma Qing’s fist smashed into Tian Guangming’s chest, shaking his body and he spat out a large mouthful of blood.
Tian Guangming was still laughing. He wasn’t afraid and didn’t beg for mercy at all.
“What are you laughing at?” Fire blazed in Ma Qing’s heart. Another heavy fist punched into Tian Guangming’s dantian.
Tian Guangming spat out blood non-stop as if he had an unlimited amount of blood.
But he was still laughing.
“I want to see how long you can laugh for.” Ma Qing’s expression was filled with rage. He was about to punch Tian Guangming in the head.
But at that moment, Tian Guangming opened his mouth. He was in pain but he laughed happily, “I am laughing because you are about to die.”
Ma Qing grabbed Tian Guangming with one hand and punched him with the other. Even if he was very old, he was still at Boundless Realm
“You seem to not understand your situation.” Ma Qing laughed coldly and said.
“You think you won?” Tian Guangming coughed, even spitting out his intestines. But he didn’t care and kept smiling.
“Is it not obvious.” Ma Qing laughed coldly, “What tricks do you have up your sleeve? You can use them all so I can see how skilled you are.”
Tian Guangming shook his head and said, “I don’t have any more skills.”
“Then, why are you still acting tough?” Ma Qing laughed. A bright light appeared on his fist and it was about to land.
“I have no skill, but my… Master.” Tian Guangming gave a weak smile and he felt really proud.
This smile contained his anticipation and respect for his Master.
“Master?” Ma Qing’s expression changed and he looked around. He noticed that there were many people looking but no one came out to stop him.
“Where is your Master?” Ma Qing smiled in disdain.
“If your Master is amazing, then he should have attacked long ago. Why wait until now? Look at you taking your dying breaths; you are like a dead dog. Where is your Master?” Ma Qing laughed coldly.
“My Master… He is… Above you.” Tian Guangming gave a weak smile.
Ma Qing’s expression changed. His pupils constricted and his hair felt numb. Tian Guangming’s reminder shocked him.
Suddenly, he raised his head and he hoped that Tian Guangming was just playing tricks with him.
Keng!!!!!
But, a streak of sword energy shot down. It was unbelievably quick and landed without giving Ma Qing a chance to react at all.
Ma Qing only saw a glimpse of it before it stabbed into his body.
From his head to the middle of his body, the sword energy pinned Ma Qing into the giant hole.
10,000 years ago, Ma Qing turned into an emperor and was pinned on Heaven Mountain. His soul was fortunate enough to flee.
10,000 years ago, Ma Qing came once more but was killed here.
This time he didn’t have a soul to escape with.
Li Xiandao’s sword killed a respectable celestial!
