As the Black Cloud Ancestor's long sword was about to pierce him, Li Xiaotian roared, raising his right hand to block it. Simultaneously, he summoned the demon sword with his left hand and charged upwards.
"Pfft!"
Li Xiaotian's right hand was directly pierced, blood gushing out. The terrifying sword energy instantly destroyed the life force in his right hand.
"Heh heh."
The Black Cloud Ancestor sneered, but then his expression changed drastically. His eyes widened in shock as he looked down.
At this moment, the demon sword in Li Xiaotian's hand erupted, its terrifying sword intent shooting straight into the sky and piercing the Black Cloud Ancestor's body.
"Demon sword! This, this is impossible!"
The Black Cloud Ancestor's face was filled with disbelief. He roared, channeling his internal energy to force back the demon sword.
But how could Li Xiaotian let this opportunity slip away? He mobilized his devouring power, and instantly, the demon sword began to frantically devour the Black Cloud Ancestor's life force.
"Damn it! Pull it out quickly!!"
The Black Cloud Ancestor roared, his eyes filled with fear. He was terrified. After living for an unknown number of years, he felt the threat of death.
"Li Xiaotian, I concede defeat. Pull out the demon sword quickly, and I promise I will never be your enemy again."
The Black Cloud Ancestor pleaded for mercy, struggling frantically.
However, Li Xiaotian held the sword in one hand, strode forward, and pinned the Black Cloud Ancestor to the void with the other.
"Die!"
Li Xiaotian roared, tightening his grip on the sword with his left hand. Instantly, he sliced the Black Cloud Ancestor's body in half.
Then, he summoned the Dragon King Palace and collected one half of the corpse for suppression. He grabbed the other half with his other hand, his figure shrinking instantly as he landed on the distant Dragon Horse.
"Hurry! To the Barbarian Province's Spirit Locking Array."
Li Xiaotian urged.
The Dragon Horse snapped back to reality and immediately accelerated, galloping with all its might.
Yet, its heart was filled with shock. The Black Cloud Ancestor was dead!
A strong practitioner in the middle stage of the Heavenly tier had been killed by Li Xiaotian!
Before coming, it had been thinking that Li Xiaotian was too insane to dare attack proactively.
Now, witnessing the opponent slay the Black Cloud Ancestor with its own eyes, its heart was filled with both fear and shock.
Who could believe that someone who had just broken through to the Heavenly tier could kill a seasoned Heavenly tier expert?
A moment later, Li Xiaotian had already departed. Above the Black Cloud Sect's mountain gate, several figures exuding terrifying auras instantly arrived.
Upon seeing the chaotic scene, the figures were all shaken.
"Who? Who was fighting with Black Cloud? Where is he?"
A figure whispered, his body trembling as he sensed the lingering aura at the scene.
"Black Cloud is severely injured!"
"We have just awoken, and our strength is not at its peak. Who would dare seek trouble with Black Cloud at the cost of serious injury?"
Someone spoke, their eyes filled with shock.
"Perhaps it wasn't a slumbering Heavenly tier. Those who have just broken through to the Heavenly tier are all at their peak condition."
Another person said. He was dressed in black, inscribed with a golden five-clawed dragon, and was a powerful figure from the Desolate Hall.
"Boom!"
Just then, it suddenly began to rain blood from the sky. Vaguely, a gray, sky-piercing avenue appeared in the sky, and then it instantly shattered.
At this moment, everyone present changed their expressions.
"Black Cloud has fallen!"
Someone gritted their teeth, filled with both shock and fear.
A powerful practitioner in the middle stage of the Heavenly tier, who had only awakened for less than a day, had fallen.
Who had made the move? Who possessed such strength to kill a seasoned Heavenly tier expert in such a short time?
"Damn it, who exactly is it?"
The expert from the Desolate Hall roared, his divine sense surging wildly, searching every corner of the Flame Province.
But he found nothing unusual.
"The opponent is either in the late stage of the Heavenly tier, or has just broken through to the Heavenly tier but possesses heaven-defying combat power!"
Someone analyzed.
Following this, several people were stunned, and then their eyes burst with brilliance. A terrifying killing intent and rage erupted from them.
"Li Xiaotian!"
The expert from the Desolate Hall gritted his teeth and roared, his body filled with immense ferocity.
"How dare he?!"
Someone spoke, their face filled with anger.
An ant, how dare he proactively attack a seasoned expert?
"He dares, of course. Don't forget, he even dared to provoke the Supreme Being. Knowing that he will surely die after we revive, he took a desperate gamble and attacked proactively."
Someone said. He was a Heavenly tier expert from the Divine Sect.
"Detestable! If we had arrived a step earlier, he would have been forced to die today!"
The expert from the Desolate Hall gnashed his teeth, his eyes filled with rage.
"Everyone, for the time being, let's not recover alone. Let's all stay in the Desolate Hall and hunt Li Xiaotian together once our strength recovers."
The Divine Sect expert proposed.
"Agreed!"
Everyone responded, then vanished from the spot.
Meanwhile, as blood rained from the sky, all the powerful figures in the Flame Province were alerted.
A Heavenly tier expert had fallen!
Killed immediately after awakening was truly shocking.
Above the Dao Sect, Dao Xuan sighed, guessing who had made the move, his heart filled with shock.
Li Xiaotian's boldness was immense, hunting a seasoned expert alone, and actually succeeding.
"Chaos is coming."
Dao Xuan whispered, his eyes filled with worry.
At the same time, in the Ancient Village, Yue E and Gu Wentian looked at each other. They hadn't expected Li Xiaotian to be so ferocious after leaving, killing a Heavenly tier expert on the same day.
"Heh heh, I'm getting old. I thought breaking through to the Heavenly tier would open up a different world, but now it seems one can still fall with a single misstep."
Gu Wentian scoffed self-deprecatingly.
"Hmph, well killed! My Yue family's son-in-law should be decisive and ruthless!"
Yue E snorted coldly, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes.
"This brat is not bad. If he is ever cornered, he can come to the village for refuge."
Just then, a voice echoed in their ears.
Instantly, Yue E looked surprised and turned to bow towards the village.
"Thank you, Aunt."
At the same time, within the Spirit Locking Array of the Barbarian Province, Li Xiaotian had carved out some caves within a large mountain and was hiding there with the Dragon Horse.
At this moment, his entire right hand emitted a dense death aura, and his own aura was extremely weak.
"Heh heh."
Li Xiaotian chuckled. Seasoned Heavenly tiers were not easy to kill. If he hadn't had the demon sword, he would have died this time.
"Roar, Li Xiaotian, are you alright? I say, you shouldn't go out this time. Just cultivate until you reach the peak of the Heavenly tier, then go out. Who would dare provoke you then?"
The Dragon Horse said, it was a little scared. It had almost been discovered by those Heavenly tier experts just now. If it weren't for its extreme speed, it would have been killed on the spot.
"I wish I could, but they won't give me time."
Li Xiaotian sighed, saying that this kind of risk was only a one-time opportunity. Next, he would have to face the siege of several Heavenly tier experts.
Even if he hid here, he would be discovered sooner or later.
Li Xiaotian shook his head, not thinking about it anymore. He threw out the Black Cloud Ancestor's corpse and then activated his devouring power.
A powerful practitioner in the middle stage of the Heavenly tier, although the opponent was not at his peak, devouring him would greatly enhance his own strength.
The cave gradually fell silent. Li Xiaotian was recovering from his injuries, while the Dragon Horse cultivated beside him.
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, several powerful auras suddenly erupted from the Desolate Hall, shocking the entire Flame Province.
"We have all recovered. It's time to kill Li Xiaotian."
Someone said, their tone filled with killing intent.
"Kill all of Li Xiaotian's relatives and friends, let him understand the consequences of angering our sects."
A woman proposed, her face filled with hatred. She was the only female expert present and the mother of Huang Wuya.
"Indeed, blood must be repaid with blood!"
"Notify them to capture everyone related to Li Xiaotian and force Li Xiaotian to show himself!"
