Chapter 866 I Don't Even Respect The Heavens & You Want Me To Respect You?

"So, are you going to intervene for them?"

After looking strangely at the middle-aged man, Ling Tian asked indifferently. If he wanted to intervene, then he wouldn't mind killing one more. After all, Ling Tian was still still upset.

"The Guiyan family is under my protection now."

As if Ling Tian was right, this man nodded with an expression full of self-confidence. A powerful aura emerged from him, directly facing Ling Tian and showing that he was serious.

"Are you sure? I think you'd better stay away from these matters, so you'd avoid losing your life in this south state, far away from where you come from..." Ling Tian snorted derisively, noting the contemptuous and arrogant gaze of this man behind his expression full of self-assurance.

"I admit that you are very strong, and having a cultivation base at the middle stage of the separation and reunion realm certainly makes you a supreme expert in this place." The man widened his smile and said loudly, as if he wanted everyone to hear, "Either you are a genius cultivator who has found a supreme inheritance, or you really are the master of the Rocky Mountain Sect."

Ling Tian raised his eyebrows slightly before lifting the corner of his mouth and asking, "Are you sure you want to go against me? Don't be swayed by a mere thought..."

"Haha! If I were to back down right now then everything I've done wouldn't be worth it!"

"Uhm... so your path is to never go backwards and go straight forward even if it's the wrong path?"

"You seem to be aware of the true path of heaven!"

"The true path to heaven? Bullshit! There is no true path of heaven..." Ling Tian rolled his eyes when he saw this man's mentality and cultivation method.

In reality, there are thousands of paths to heaven, paths that lead to the great dao, but the true and real paths are winding, lonely and almost impossible to follow.

But at the same time there are no roads, for heaven is omnipotent and anyone who tries to reach it is punished, because they defy the laws of the universe and the heavens.

Therefore, cultivation is to go against heaven, overcoming the trials and obstacles imposed by the heavens themselves, resisting the will of heaven and not hesitating in one's own way.

And Ling Tian could clearly see that this man in front of him gave off this feeling of ignorance and lack of knowledge towards this kind of thing, with his superficial cultivation, thinking that when he reached the pinnacle he would be supreme and omnipotent. Most likely this guy had some chance encounter.

With the changes brought about by the destruction of the formation in the void, Ling Tian noticed that unlike more than 400 years ago when he had first come to this cultivation world, the cultivators of the present day seemed stronger with slightly higher cultivation levels than the past.

In the past, it was rare to see any nascent soul cultivators appear in the cities of this south state, as these experts would be the ancestors and forefathers of each family or force.

But now, these experts climbed up to the body condensation realm level and it seemed that they would be able to move forward if given more time.

Ling Tian was simply somewhat puzzled because the destruction of the formation was recent, and there were many secrets in the darkness that he could not see at the moment. His intuition was clearly telling him that that formation in the void was only the tip of the iceberg, and a very troublesome and perhaps extremely dangerous matter lay hidden at the bottom.

And now, there was a late stage separation and reunion realm expert in front of him, boasting of his strength and thinking that he was someone else or had a lower cultivation level than him. Most likely, he had a chance encounter and his strength skyrocketed in a short time, reaching this cultivation level in about 3 thousand years apparently, which the bone age at a glance indicated to Ling Tian.

"For the sake of having rejuvenated and that you are the master of the rocky mountain sect, I will let you go... but you have to contribute something in return for your life! Your sect is one of the main forces in the east state, so leave behind a little bit of cultivation resources wouldn't be bad for your sect, right?"

The man finally smiled somewhat cruelly, glaring disdainfully and contemptuously at Ling Tian.

The famous rocky mountain sect master had found a heavenly pill of extreme vitality, which made him rejuvenate his appearance from a man over 70 years old to a young man!

Although he had not seen this rocky mountain sect master, he was sure that this young man could be him. Rumors claimed that this sect master regained his appearance of a very young man!

The 50-year-old man could not grit his teeth in envy. If he had been the one who found such a heavenly treasure, then he would regain his appearance and obtaining women would be a piece of cake. He could even recruit himself in the holy lands of the north state and finally reach the great ascension realm! Then he would be a supreme expert in the world!

Now, he just wants to quietly settle down in this place and become the number one expert in the entire south state while controlling the Guiyan family and quietly cultivating to try reaching the next realm.

"I was going to let your son live, while your grandson's life was going to be decided by my brother..." Ling Tian let out a sigh and turned to look at Guiyan Han's father, asking indifferently, "I guess finding such a powerful ally for your family must have cost you a lot, no? But the effort you've put in wouldn't be worth it if it all ended here, or am I wrong?"

Ling Tian's indifferent eyes fell on the old man.

The old man, Guiyan Han's father, gritted his teeth as his expression turned dark, sensing that something wasn't right. He could see that in Ling Tian's gaze there was utmost indifference, as if he wasn't worried about facing the senior he had brought.

"Grandfather! He is the killer of the entire Guiyan family! If we don't kill him right now, we will be the ridicule of the entire capital!"

The desperate, trembling voice of the young master Guiyan was heard, calling out to his grandfather.

The head of the Guiyan family, Guiyan Han, simply kept silent and did not dare to move, let alone say a word. Somehow, his instincts expressed danger to him, but at the same time a terror enveloped him, not knowing what to do.

"So, what will you do?" Ling Tian slightly deepened his voice a little more as he looked at Guiyan Han's father. His gaze lightly passed over Guiyan Han and his son, before returning to this old man.

The old man narrowed his eyes, hesitating whether to agree or not.

"It seems you still haven't realized the situation you're in!"

Being ignored by Ling Tian, the 50-year-old coldly snorted and his aura spread out again, enveloping Ling Tian and the others.

"I only used less than half of my strength before, so I didn't want to complicate your life. I give you face and respect as fellow cultivators, and not as senior and junior, so you should appreciate the opportunity I'm giving you!" The man spat coldly.

This guy was not returning the respect he deserved!

Much less was he showing signs of appreciation!

"Face? Respect? Fellow cultivators?"

Ling Tian finally frowned and his gaze fell on the man.

However, when his gaze had fallen on the enemy, this man could not help but feel a terror as he saw his cold and indifferent eyes, as if Ling Tian was only watching an ant instead of him.

"You say I have to give you respect? I don't even respect the heavens and you want me to respect you?"

"What nonsense you say..."

Hearing Ling Tian's words, the man responded with contempt when the next moment and before he finished speaking, his pupils shrank fiercely.

In the sight and presence of the entire capital, a giant hand appeared in the air and easily grabbed the 50-year-old man in appearance.

"Y-you... you... y-you are a great ascension realm expert!"

The man screamed in horror as he was grabbed by the giant hand and was unable to move at all, feeling a terrifying force enveloping his entire body. His Potential surged unconsciously but it was useless when it couldn't even form.

"I gave you the chance to save your life and you wasted it..." Ling Tian said casually without looking at him.

"S-senior, forgive me, I-I was blind..."

* Boom! *

Before the man finished saying his words, his body exploded as the giant hand closed tightly.

"Too much bullshit..." Ling Tian snorted with some annoyance, knowing what exactly this man would say.

After all, it wasn't the first time he heard it, and Ling Tian lost count after hearing it more than a thousand times.

Moreover, at this moment Ling Tian realized that he had become very dense and soft in the face of this kind of situation. In the past, he would kill directly without a second thought, not listening and waiting for what the enemies had to say, not caring what others thought.

But now, he seems to have restrained himself a bit unconsciously; perhaps it seems that having been at the top and then falling to a too weak and soft low-level world softened him up too much.

"I used to struggle every second to increase my cultivation even a little, with my life on the line and the anxiety to reach the top, but now, I feel a calmness like the sea, spreading out and swallowing up all the troubles without the need to go crazy by cultivating again..." Ling Tian narrowed his eyes, whispering lightly, before letting out a sigh.

Perhaps the awakening of his past life along with his memories changed and tempered his mentality, coupled with his current life experience, Ling Tian was no longer as hopeless as in the past. But at the same time it completely confused him, wondering if it was really right to think in such a way.

The atmosphere became cold and tense, a fear enveloped the whole place seeing what happened.

No one dared to move, not even the spectators in the distance dared to move an inch, let alone escape. Even the entire capital was silent.

After all, in front of them was the world's true supreme expert!

The true world powerhouse that has reached the pinnacle!

An expert from the mighty Great Ascension realm!

Ling Tian indifferently looked around for a moment. Wherever his gaze passed, the people who looked at him avoided him and lowered their heads, unwilling to draw his attention.

Reaching out his hand, Ling Tian picked up the man's storage ring, gave it a simple glance with his spirit sense before smiling slightly satisfied and putting it away.

The old forefather of the Guiyan family finally fell to his knees, feeling lost and frightened.

The entire Guiyan family had been wiped out!
