Because he urgently wanted to improve his sword intent, Ling Xiao tried releasing his own sword intent to search for the location of the source.
When his sword intent pushed deeper inside, it immediately encountered terrifying resistance.
A powerful sword intent erupted, frightening Ling Xiao into hastily withdrawing his own sword intent.
Too terrifying. That was probably major completion sword intent. Its power was truly dreadful.
At that moment, he suddenly saw the four people who had been cultivating with their eyes closed all stand up, excitedly looking towards the direction of the source.
From the direction of the source came bursts of sword howls, as if something was about to emerge.
Could it be a sword intent wandering soul?
Thinking it over, Ling Xiao could not come up with anything else that would make those people so overjoyed, apart from a sword intent wandering soul.
Whoosh.
Just as Ling Xiao was puzzled, a sharp sound of tearing through the air rang out. In that pitch black space, a brilliant sword light shot out.
That was the sword intent wandering soul.
Although Ling Xiao had never seen a sword intent wandering soul before, he could feel that within that sword light was incomparably powerful sword intent, possessing extremely terrifying attack power.
Anyone below the Cave Heaven Realm would have no hope of stopping it.
Forcibly blocking it would instead risk injury.
“Get lost, that thing is mine.”
Because Ling Xiao was the closest to the sword intent wandering soul, his chance of obtaining it was the greatest.
At that moment, among the four people, a green haired middle aged man in his thirties shouted angrily and rushed over.
One hand attacked Ling Xiao, while the other reached for the sword intent wandering soul.
“Young people these days really do not know how to respect their elders. This sword intent wandering soul should be given to us husband and wife.”
The couple in their fifties suddenly leapt from both sides. One stopped the green haired man, the other blocked Ling Xiao.
The hand the green haired man had intended to use against Ling Xiao instead turned to strike the old woman.
“Heh heh, you all fight among yourselves. The sword intent wandering soul will be mine.”
The last middle aged man let out a cold laugh. He looked to be in his forties, his head completely bald and shiny as if polished.
Although his appearance was rather unpleasant, his speed was not slow at all. In an instant, he passed the four people in front and was about to grab the sword intent wandering soul.
Although the sword intent wandering soul was powerful, it had no resistance at all against several warriors at the Fifth Cave Heaven Realm.
At that moment, Ling Xiao sneered. His figure flashed like a roaming dragon and a shadowy spectre. In an instant, he broke through the obstruction and seized the flying sword intent wandering soul in his hand.
“What, how can this kid’s movement technique be this good?”
“Damn it, we have waited here for almost two days, and yet he, who came later, got it first.”
“Where did this brat come from, so ignorant of the rules?”
The four of them naturally did not look pleased. Although being close to the source increased the chance of sword intent wandering souls appearing, it was not guaranteed.
They had guarded this place for a long time. Now that one finally appeared and Ling Xiao took advantage of it, how could they be happy.
“Kid, hand over the sword intent wandering soul, or do not even think about leaving Ghost Manor alive.”
The green haired man roared.
“On what grounds?”
Ling Xiao retorted. “Everyone relies on their own ability. I obtained it, so I must give it to you? Then if you obtained it, would you give it to me as well?”
“Enough nonsense. This place has already been taken over by our Giant Whale Sect. Whoever gets a sword intent wandering soul must hand it over to us.”
The green haired man said again.
“So you are not planning to be reasonable, but intend to rob it by force?”
Ling Xiao asked calmly.
“You know what is good for you. Hand it over obediently and you might still have a chance. Otherwise, your life will be forfeit.”
The green haired man shouted arrogantly.
“Forfeit my life? Then you can try.”
At a time like this, Ling Xiao naturally could not show weakness. If he handed over the sword intent wandering soul, he would gain nothing.
With the first time, there would definitely be a second.
People bully the weak and fear the strong.
He believed the green haired man would never dare to speak like this to the other three.
The reason he was shouting at Ling Xiao was simply because he thought Ling Xiao was young and easy to bully.
“Courting death.”
The green haired man flew into a rage. His figure flashed and a thick iron staff appeared in his hand, smashing straight down towards Ling Xiao’s head.
With that strike, domain essence power gathered on the iron staff, producing the sound of wind and thunder.
“This is bad.”
The female warrior standing far away could see what was happening here. Although she did not know what Ling Xiao and the green haired man had said, she saw the green haired man suddenly attack Ling Xiao and knew things were going wrong.
She knew the green haired man’s strength best. Within the Giant Whale Sect, he ranked absolutely among the top five.
A Fifth Cave Heaven Realm warrior. Ling Xiao was so young, how could he possibly be his opponent?
Shangguan Hong did not look over here. He had seen such things many times.
Since Ling Xiao dared to act tough, it meant he did not fear the opponent.
He clearly remembered that the Gentleman Sword Yue Tianya was at about this level, and was not he still scared off by Ling Xiao?
This green haired man was inferior to Yue Tianya in strength.
So there was no need for him to worry.
“A young man full of arrogance and self importance. What a pity.”
The old man shook his head, feeling it was not worth it for Ling Xiao.
Reaching this level of cultivation was not easy, yet he insisted on offending the green haired man and the Giant Whale Sect here. That was simply seeking death.
“We have seen many little fellows like this. They look arrogant and invincible, but once they fight, their true colours are completely exposed.”
The old woman also shook her head, somewhat disdainful of Ling Xiao’s recklessness.
“Hmph, it is fine if he dies. One less competitor.”
The bald man snorted coldly and stood there watching the show.
“Ah.”
A scream suddenly rang out. A figure was sent flying straight away, only falling to the ground after more than ten metres.
A mouthful of teeth flew out, scattering across the ground.
What.
The old couple, the bald man, the female warrior, and many other onlookers all stared in shock.
They had thought Ling Xiao would be the one to suffer, but the one who was sent flying was the green haired man.
The green haired man’s mouth was full of blood, his teeth almost completely gone.
“This time, consider it a lesson. If there is a next time, I will kill without mercy.”
Ling Xiao looked at the green haired man disdainfully and said, “With your level of strength, you truly shame the Fifth Cave Heaven Realm. I really do not know how you cultivated to this stage.”
Then he looked at the other three and said, “There should be plenty of sword intent wandering souls. Everyone relies on their own ability. Do not blame me for not warning you. If any of you make me unhappy, I will take all the sword intent wandering souls.”
Ling Xiao’s presence was domineering and arrogant, showing no respect to these seniors.
He had already given them face. If they refused it, then he would only become more ruthless.
The couple exchanged a glance and then nodded, effectively agreeing to Ling Xiao’s proposal.
“Rely on our own ability, I have no objections either.”
The bald man said as well.
In truth, they could all sense that this time there were more sword intent wandering souls being released than before. There was really no need to make an enemy of a supreme genius like Ling Xiao over a single sword intent wandering soul.
