Chapter 407: Dying In A Flash
Jiang Lan watched as his opponent drew his sword.
He could feel that when this person held the sword, his temperament suddenly changed.
Biting cold sword intent began to spread..
Just as his opponent was about to attack, he decided to attack.
But in the blink of an eye, the opponent’s sword had already appeared in front of him.
“So fast.”
This person was also someone who attacked when he had the chance.
Fortunately, he did not let down his guard.
If he had underestimated his enemy, he would have ended up in danger.
The sword arrived.
Jiang Lan flicked two fingers.
Clang!
The sword changed its attack and Jing Yuan flew out.
“Hiding his cultivation?
Just as I thought. All the people who were watching him had died without a sound. Although it might be because of Kunlun, he should be pretty abnormal as well.
It is impossible for Kunlun to keep an eye on them all the time.
However, everyone had died silently.
So it turns out that they were killed by him himself.”
Jing Yuan was shocked. The other party was extraordinarily powerful.
He had used a single finger to destroy his sword force. This was definitely not something a True Immortal could compare to.
But he could not understand how the other party was so powerful.
It had only been four to five hundred years since he had ascended the Stairway to Heaven.
Even with the Empyrean Scripture, it was impossible for him to reach this level.
In an instant, he came to his senses.
This was not the time to think. He had to fight back.
His sword was brandished again. His body and mind became one, and he planned to continue attacking.
However, when he raised his head, Jiang Lan had already arrived before him.
Without any hesitation, he thrust his sword toward the other party’s fist.
Boom!
An invisible fluctuation spread out, but before the fluctuation fully spread out, a cracking sound followed.
Crack!
Bang!
The sword disintegrated under the fist. This punch was unstoppable.
Jing Yuan’s pupils shrank. He felt that a fist was about to land on him.
Boom!
A punch landed on him.
A rumbling sound echoed in his mind.
He felt as if his body had lost all senses. His blood, bones, and organs had all been shattered in an instant.
Even his soul disintegrated along with it.
He felt like he was dead. There was no turning back.
But he could still think for a moment.
Bang!
He fell down and saw the blood mist and everything that belonged to him.
His body had disintegrated, turning into a bloody mist.
It was over.
Everything was over. He had thought that he would die, but he had never thought that he would be killed like this.
Jiang Lan’s appearance came into view. He couldn’t quite understand this person.
“Any last words?”
A cold voice entered his sluggish mind.
“The Heavenly Human Race will not tolerate you,” said Jing Yuan.
He wanted to say it for a very long time, but his body did not manage to articulate it out.
He wanted to say that the Heavenly Human Race wouldn’t compromise and that they would let even stronger powerhouses to end Jiang Lan.
After his death, the other party would definitely take this matter more seriously.
“I know, so… if you can wait, wait for them down there. The road is dark, and the more people there are, the safer it will be.” A sudden voice came into Jing Yuan’s mind.
He tried his best to widen his eyes to see if Jiang Lan was serious.
However, he couldn’t open his eyes, only vaguely seeing that the other party was about to take action.
“I will wait.” This was Jing Yuan’s last sentence.
This was what he had hoped for.
Bang!
Blood mist scattered in all directions.
Jiang Lan activated his One Leaf Vision and waited.
At this moment, Jiang Lan was standing in the Ice Cicada Forest, surrounded by blood mist.
He had activated his One Leaf Vision mainly to guard against someone who made him feel dangerous.
As for the person who was killed, he could sense that he had still hidden something.
But in the vast wilderness, how many people could do as they pleased?
When one was weak, one had to be independent and not get into trouble.
Only when one was strong could one have mercy and help the world.
He was still very weak.
Hu!
At this moment, Jiang Lan felt an aura rapidly approaching them.
The surrounding blood mist began to condense, forming a blood-colored bead.
“The other party has indeed come.”
Jiang Lan thought.
The last time he killed someone from the Heavenly Human Race, this person had come over as well.
This time, it was the same.
He just didn’t understand why the other party liked the Heavenly Human Race so much.
Perhaps these two Heavenly Human Race individuals were a bit special.
“Little fella, we meet again. Do you have enmity with the Heavenly Human Race?”
The one who appeared was naturally Imperial Lord Xi He.
What came was still a strand of aura, possessing the power of a single strike.
Faced with this aura, Jiang Lan remained vigilant.
“Senior, aren’t you curious about what the people of the Heavenly Human Race are planning to do?” He asked.
He dared not ask about the flesh and blood.
He was worried it involved some secrets.
Of course, he wouldn’t answer the question as to whether there was any enmity between him and the Heavenly Human Race, as it was easy for the other party to guess his identity.
“Of course it’s for the Deity Position. Not long ago, I felt a distant aura. It should have been released by this person.”
I thought that he was planning to leave.
I didn’t expect for him to be left here by a little fellow like you.” Imperial Lord Xi He looked at Jiang Lan curiously.
“You don’t wish for others to obtain the Deity Position?”
Jiang Lan didn’t reply.
Once he answered, Imperial Lord Xi He could easily guess whether he was taking the initiative or passively killing the people from the Heavenly Human Race.
Answering this question would allow the other party to infer quite a lot of information.
“The Heavenly Feather Phoenix Race and the Heavenly Human Race are about to obtain the Deity Position. Do you know why they dragged it out until now?” Imperial Lord Xi He didn’t mind Jiang Lan’s silence.
Everyone hid something, so he didn’t mind others having secrets as well.
As long as it didn’t endanger Kunlun, the other party could hide anything.
“Senior, please enlighten me.” Jiang Lan respectfully said.
Imperial Lord Xi He indeed had the strength to know.
Jiang Lan was curious about this, but if it wasn’t suitable, he wouldn’t ask further.
Knowing or not wouldn’t affect the outcome.
From the looks of it, it was quite suitable.
The battle between the Heavenly Feather Phoenix Race and the Heavenly Human Race would eventually come to an end, and the Heavenly Human Race would most likely find time to deal with him after that.
This would be rather troublesome.
He could only hide in the Ninth Summit. It was best for him to not go out too much.
His master was indeed worried about not going out to train.
His previous two experiences must have been seen through by his master. The fact was that he had never gone out to train.
He was just finding a place outside to go into seclusion…
“What is the prefix of my Deity Position?” Imperial Lord Xi He asked.
“Ancient Imperial West Palace?” Jiang Lan carefully replied.
He did not dare to say much, afraid that it would cause unnecessary effects.
He had been paying attention to his surroundings.
To ensure his safety.
Imperial Lord Xi He’s strength far exceeded his by who knows how many times. When faced with such an existence, he could only passively defend or escape.
If he could not escape, he could only seek help from his master.
“Yes, Ancient Imperial West Palace. And the reason why it is the Ancient Imperial West Palace is because Kunlun is in the Western Wastelands.
What prefix does the demon’s Deity Position have? “Imperial Lord Xi He asked again.
“Ancient Imperial North Palace?” Jiang Lan replied.
“The Demon Race is located in the Northern Wastelands, and it corresponds to the Ancient Imperial North Palace.
The Devil Race is located in the Southern Wastelands, and hence the prefix of their Deity Position is the Southern Palace.
The Eastern Wastelands is too slow. There is still no one with a Deity Position there.
As for the Heavenly Human Race of the Central Plains and the Heavenly Feather Phoenix Race, they have been ahead for a long time, but they have never obtained a Deity Position.
Or rather, the Heavenly Feather Phoenix Race was never slower than the Demon Race.
But they are still stuck, unable to obtain the Deity Position.
The reason is that they are located in the Central Plains.
What do you think the corresponding Deity Position in the Central Plains is?” Imperial Lord Xi He looked at Jiang Lan and asked.
