Chapter 536 Encounter with Nangong Cheng

"Bai Jingyuan, I am a disciple of the Nangong family! You and I have no enmity whatsoever, yet you dare to ambush and kill me without even knowing the facts!!"

In mid-air,

Nangong Cheng fled for his life, transforming into a streak of light and swiftly passing through the air.
As he fled, he roared at the powerful figure relentlessly pursuing him.

"You ambushed and killed me without any reason. Aren't you afraid of retaliation from the Nangong family?!"

Nangong Cheng dared not linger for even a moment, and used all his strength to escape, resulting in his face being as pale as paper and completely bloodless!
Such extreme exploitation of the body's magical power
It's not a good thing for your body.

But no way,

The person behind him was a peak sixth-level Nascent Soul cultivator!

In contrast,

He was only at the fifth level of the Nascent Soul stage.

Between each other,

A huge gap, a whole realm apart!

He couldn't do what his friend did, taking on challenges beyond his level as easily as eating or drinking.

In fact,
At the mid-stage of the Astral Projection realm...
Cultivators at a higher cultivation level often have an overwhelming advantage over those at a lower level!

Only someone like Shen Changchuan could overcome two cultivation levels and still crush his opponent.

During the escape,
At this moment, that figure involuntarily flashed through Nangong Cheng's mind.

If the opponent encounters a Nascent Soul Stage 6 enemy while at the same cultivation level as oneself...

I'm afraid there's no need to run at all.

They could even kill an enemy of a higher level with a single move!

Unfortunately, I am not him.
Ultimately, only a minority of people in this world are truly exceptional.

"Hmph! In this desolate place, who would know it was me who killed you?"

"You only have yourself to blame for seeing things you shouldn't have!"

"With your meager strength at the fifth level of the Nascent Soul stage, you dare to meddle in this, coveting such a divine object? You're truly courting death! Even if my cousin hadn't given the order, I would have eliminated you on sight, so you would understand what true respect is!"

rear,

Upon hearing Nangong Cheng's roar, Bai Jingyuan snorted coldly and said disdainfully.

Simultaneously,

boom!
He suddenly unleashed a powerful aura.
The speed suddenly increased.
The distance between them and Nangong City, who was fleeing for his life, gradually shortened.

"It's over!"

Sensing the terrifying aura rapidly approaching from behind,
Nangong Cheng's heart sank, as if he had fallen into an ice cave!

Having honed his skills for many years during the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, Bai Jingyuan clearly possesses a formidable second-tier movement technique.

In addition, given his own cultivation level as the peak of the sixth level of the Nascent Soul stage, his speed was already quite fast.

With the two combined,
This is nothing compared to Nangong Cheng, who has already exhausted all means of escaping!
The distance is rapidly closing.
Nangong Cheng had already sensed the sharp killing intent coming from behind him.

"Can't leave!"

"Fight!"

at this point,

There was no way to escape.
Nangong Cheng gritted his teeth and made a desperate decision.

As a cultivator who grew up away from home and worked as a rogue cultivator, Nangong Cheng was unlike other scions of noble families who were like flowers growing in a greenhouse, lacking the courage to fight desperately.

boom!
While fleeing for his life, Nangong Cheng suddenly turned around and slashed with his sword.

This blade was incredibly sharp, sweeping across dozens of feet of void, as if the vacuum itself had been torn apart, and slashed towards Bai Jingyuan, who was chasing closely behind, with an overwhelming force!

Such a sudden attack,
Even a peak sixth-level Nascent Soul cultivator could fall victim to this if they weren't careful.

however,
Bai Jingyuan seemed to have expected this. "Hmph! I knew you wouldn't be honest!"

Bai Jingyuan, who was prepared, thrust out his blood-red spear. His immense magical power gathered at the tip of the spear, and with unparalleled momentum, it pierced through the sky and crashed straight into the blade!
Boom! ! !

A tremendous roar resounded.

A powerful energy surge erupted in the sky, and the shockwave swept across the sky like a tsunami.

With higher cultivation level,
Bai Jingyuan shattered Nangong Cheng's blade.
The spear, like a dragon, unleashed a beam of mysterious light, instantly piercing through dozens of feet of vacuum, and struck Nangong Cheng with overwhelming force.

boom!
Nangong Cheng's figure was blasted away.
Like a cannonball, it crashed onto the mountain peak not far away.

Amidst a tremendous roar.
The mountain peak was directly blasted down by the powerful force, and dust billowed up.

But this isn't the end!

Bai Jingyuan stood on the void.
He took a step forward, crossing hundreds of feet again, and arrived above Nangong City.

"Die! Be smarter in your next life!"

boom!
Bai Jingyuan's figure looked down from above.
He raised the blood-red spear in his hand.
A burst of red light erupted, containing an unknown power that caused the air within a hundred feet to tremble. The sharp spear tip was pointed at Nangong Cheng below, and a cold voice rang out.

Nangong Cheng's figure was embedded in the huge crater of the collapsed mountain.
Feeling the inescapable soul lock coming from high above,

An aura of death loomed overhead.

His pale face couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh.

"It's a pity my friend isn't here, otherwise I wouldn't have let you run rampant today!"

Despite his despair, Nangong Cheng couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

After accidentally stumbling upon their plot, they had originally planned to invite Shen Changchuan to come and compete for that thing together.

He trusted Shen Changchuan's friend's character and was strong enough that he might have a chance to seize that thing.

Before they could even take any action, they made a careless move and their movements were discovered by the other side.

That's why they ended up in this situation.

unfortunately,

I should have strongly invited that guy to come and explore together in the first place.

If he were here,
Why would you hand over such a great opportunity to someone else?

Many thoughts flashed through Nangong Cheng's mind.

"Your friend? Ha! You should be glad he's not here today, letting him escape with his life!"

"But you've reminded me that after this matter is settled, I should also see your friend off, so that he won't cause trouble for you when you seek revenge!"

High in the sky, Bai Jingyuan gave a disdainful sneer.

The blood-red spear flew from his hand, transforming into a rainbow of light that pierced through the void, tearing through the sky for hundreds of feet, and crashing down towards Nangong Cheng's head below!

This strike was as swift as lightning.

It even carried the divine sense lock between them.
Nangong Cheng had nowhere to escape.
There is no way to avoid it!

An irresistible death has already descended upon the summit of Nangong City!

however,
At this very moment,
The space seemed to shatter suddenly.

A hand, as white as jade and glass, without the slightest flaw, reached out from the shattered void.

He grabbed the terrifying, blood-red spear that pierced the sky!
The terrifying spear, powerful enough to pierce and shatter several mountains, was instantly frozen in mid-air.

Can't move!

The devastating power on the spear,
It was as if it had been completely annihilated, vanished without a trace!

The world seemed to freeze at this moment!
"You dare to talk such nonsense about wanting to end my life!"

As a calm voice echoed through the void, a figure emerged from it.
