Chapter 797: Shura Emperor.
The legendary beasts watched a husk laying inside the crater. The dust cloud was slowly settling down. They did not have any expression on their faces. It was not a big deal for a cultivator to have died facing the Heavenly Tribulation.
Mertyl sighed and said, "Did he really die?"
Allure shook her head and pointed at the sky above. The tribulation clouds parted and soon golden light beams fell over the crater, focused on Shi Lang. This was a proof that Shi Lang had passed the tribulation and heaven was blessing him with energy to recover from his injuries and grow even stronger.
The legendary beasts saw this and they immediately charged at the golden energy. The reward of heavens was miraculous, as long as they soaked in the light, they would be able to absorb it and grow stronger, heal hidden injuries they accumulated over the years.
They did not care about Shi Lang, who did all the hard work. However, just before they could act, a blue ring of fire emerged before them. One of the people did not mind and barely touched the ring of fire before he screamed. All of the people looked at the source of the flame ring, Allure, in horror.
The lady said, "That kid down there is under my protection. If you dared to steal his hard work, do you believe that I would refine your blood into medicine for him right here?"
The people were shocked and many of them wanted to protest but when they sensed the pressure coming off of her, they held their thoughts. Mertyl took a deep breath and said, "I did not expect you to be so strong after all this time, Allure."
Allure took a deep breath and said, "It is nothing special, all these years I had nothing else to do and just cultivated."
Suddenly, a voice echoed in the surroundings, "Have you forgotten that this territory belong to the Azure Scale Qilin clan."
A dignified old man appeared across the crater with a solemn gaze focused at the flame ring. Allure looked at the old man and said, "Oh, so I weakened the Wolf clan, and your kind swooped in like the vulture to claim the territory? Are you sure you guys are Azure scale Qilins and not scaled possums?"
Mertyl was shocked while the rest of the people gasped visibly when they heard this. They could sense the old man looking really strong, he was a superior legendary beast in their eyes. However, Allure did not show any fear.
The old man glared at her and said, "First, I will kill you, and then I will crush this half dead ant."
Allure chuckled and said, "I am standing right here, try your best, Possum."
The old man unleashed his spiritual pressure, and the surrounding people had some trouble breathing. They quickly created distance from him, and Allure was still smiling. She asked, "Is that the best you can do? What a waste of time and effort you are. Allow me to show you what true strength is like."
Then she unleashed her spiritual energy and said, "They say that seventy percent of blood inscription make you a superior legendary beast. However, they forget to mention that every one percent casts a difference between the power level akin to that of the sky and the ground."
Her pressure was stronger, and unlike the old Qilin's it was focused on the old man only. The people who were hoping for the old man to put Allure in her place were scared shitless, they could not understand how they came across an expert who was so strong. Superior Legendary Beasts did not come out frequently, they valued their cultivation more than the world.
The struggle between the two people began. Allure did not reveal her complete strength, because she did not have the habit of using a sword to finish a needles job.
...
On the ground, Shi Lang healing from the injuries, and he was thinking how he almost died from the last lightning strike. In his mind a lot of thoughts were going on and he could hear the vocal exchange outside. As thankful he was to Allure, he was questioning the fact that he could have gone outside the Titan Mountain with allure and come back after finishing his cultivation.
Yeah, he was regretting attracting so much attention to himself. However, the main worry at the moment was to see if the pressure from Allure and the Old man would crush his body or it would prove to be helpful.
Forgetting everything, Shi Lang focused on healing his body.
Allure and the Old Man were at an impasse for seven minutes, and at this moment, the golden light vanished. Everyone looked at Shi Lang, and they found him standing on the ground with his crimson hair fluttering in the wind. His muscles radiating vitality and power.
Shi Lang himself was stunned when he sensed the power raging inside his body. He then flexed his body and all the bones issued a crackling sound. Allure scolded from the sky, "Put on some clothes, you insolent creature."
The Terran did not argue, but quietly took out the set of clothes and put them up. He cupped his fist and bowed to the lady showing his gratitude. Allure said, "How do you feel?"
Shi Lang replied, "Good enough. May we go?"
Allure nodded and said, "Yes, it is about time."
However, the old Qilin was still not willing to give up and said, "How dare you treat the Qilin Clan with such disrespect?"
Allure rolled her eyes and said, "First, you bought this upon yourself. Second, I did it because I am stronger than you."
Shi Lang watched this scene unfold silently. Then he sensed a strong suction aimed at him and his body flew toward the Old Qilin. The Old Man yelled, "I will kill this insect before I deal with you."
Allure did not expect this and was caught off guard. The suction was so strong that Shi Lang was held by the old man in a blink, and he was dangling in the void. The old man fended off against the pressure from Allure and gazed at Shi Lang coldly. He asked, "How do you feel that you are about to die?"
Shi Lang asked, "May I ask what is your name?"
The old man was surprised and chuckled as he said, "Yan, Why?"
Shi Lang replied calmly, "Goodbye."
Just when everyone was surprised about why Shi Lang was bidding farewell to Yan Jing, when they all saw the old man open his eyes wide. A red and golden blade was protruding through his torso. He tried to exert force on his hand, but Shi Lang was holding his hand.
Everyone saw as Shi Lang removed the hand on his neck easily, and twist his blade inside Yan Jing's body. Let alone the people, even Allure was shocked at this display. Shi Lang said, "Old man, you are strong but that is because you were born a thousand years or even more than me. You are just a pathetic waste of heaven's blessing.
Not only are you weak and narrow minded, you also bring shame to your clan."
While he was talking, Raksha was absorbing the blood in Yan Jing's body very crazily. The person was shrinking up into a pale and wrinkled mess at a visible pace. Shi Lang said, "You must be wondering how I managed to kill you?"
Yan Jing nodded and Shi Lang continued, "You let your guard down. Second, I have enough Dao Laws to sacrifice. I wanted to see if a Legendary Beast will die to the technique. Thank you for your help in my research."
The people heard his cold voice and they shivered with a chill running up their spines. Shi Lang was unlike what they had thought about him. He was not weak, he was not a small creature that had come over to the Titan Mountain seeking death. At this moment, he cast a shadow over them that made him look no less then a monster.
Yan Jing heard him speak as his life was absorbed by Shi Lang's blade. The young man said, "Goodbye."
Then he kicked Yan Jing straight in his chest, and said, "Senior Allure, I apologize for going over board."
Allure shook her head and replied, "He started it, and thus he deserved it. You killed him in self-defense. Oh, yeah, I forgot to ask you, what is your Dao title?"
Shi Lang replied, "Shura."
Allure nodded and said, "So that means, now you are Shura Emperor? This suits you, killing is an important part of your Dao Path."
Shi Lang smiled and shook his head as he replied, "You praise me too much, Senior. Shall we go now?"
He was not only getting praised but the more Allure chastised him, the more heat he was drawing from the Qilin Clan. Given that he absorbed a lot of providence energy, anyone could come after him. He did not wish to stay here, and finally managed to get Allure to say yes, so that he could explore the ruin and find the legacy of the senior from Medicine God Valley.
