Chapter 408 - The Eighth Flash of Sword Qi (1/2)

Chapter 408: The Eighth Flash of Sword Qi Translator: Reverie_ Editor: Kurisu

Battling till near exhaustion, Ling Han began to run.

Ding Yuan Xin was obviously in hot pursuit—the two played out a flee and kill.

Why didn’t Ling Han hide in the Black Tower?

That was because he didn’t want to rely too much on the Black Tower.

The Black Tower was certainly the most precious treasure for saving his life, but if Ling Han always treated it as an omnipotent trump card, then should he encounter an expert the Black Tower couldn’t fend against, what would he do? This wasn’t exaggerated at all since the Black Tower was heavily damaged and there were plenty of elites in the world.

Besides, forming the habit of hiding inside the Black Tower when faced with danger would make Ling Han lose unyieldingness and courage.

To want to climb to the peak of martial arts, courage was definitely a trait that couldn’t be lost.

So Ling Han would rather lick the blood on his wounds and not hide inside the Black Tower. He was using Ding Yuan Xin to toughen himself, because he felt that the door to the eighth flash of Sword Qi would very soon open up to him.

He was the type to be more resilient and have a stronger fighting spirit the greater the pressure, so Ding Yuan Xin was a good whetstone that could hone his sharp sword even sharper.

Time and time again, Ling Han almost fell into the land of everlasting perdition, but activating the Indestructible Heaven’s Scroll, each injury would be quickly recovered no matter how heavy it was, allowing him to keep circling around. Continuing for seven days, Ling Han retreated whilst fighting. The most dangerous time was when an attack landed on his chest where the hole in the Thunder Battle Armor was, making his heart almost explode.

Fortunately, with a drop of the Indestructible True Fluid, he immediately recovered, but it also made him break out in cold sweat from fright.

But lingering near the line of death this one time, Ling Han received enough realization and as he struck his sword, eight flashes of Sword Qi fired out.

“What!?” Ding Yuan Xin’s eyes almost fell out. He clearly almost pierced through Ling Han’s chest, and under the shock of Origin Power, Ling Han’s organs should’ve exploded; however, Ling Han was not only completely fine, but also improved further, forming the eight flash of Sword Qi.

What a true freak!

Ling Han laughed loudly and said, “Thanks!”

‘Thank your sister, ugh!’ He never had the intention of helping Ling Han’s enlightenment!

Ding Yuan Xin’s expression turned stern as he said, “So what if you have eight flashes of Sword Qi, this absolutely can’t make up the difference in tier between you and I.”

“You’re right, so I’m not going to play with you anymore!” Ling Han leapt and wormed into the thick forest, and with a flash, he entered the Black Tower.

He couldn’t possibly defeat Ding Yuan Xin in the short term, and since he formed the eight flash of Sword Qi, the mission was completed. There was naturally no need to keep tangling with the latter—he still had to cultivate.

Ding Yuan Xin chased to the point, but Ling Han’s traces were already all gone, naturally making him bellow repeatedly in wrath.

After chasing for seven days and seven nights, he still hadn’t killed a small martial artist at the seventh layer of the Spiritual Ocean Tier, but instead let Ling Han form the eight flash of Sword Qi—it was a direct slap to his face!

“I’ll definitely find you!” Ding Yuan Xin said a stern voice. “Your treasures are all mine! Mine!”

***

Ling Han cultivated for a while in the Black Tower. These few days, he was either fighting or running, having no time to cultivate, but fighting was certainly the best method to improve. He found that his body was in a very special state—no matter Spirit Qi or Origin Power, both had an extremely good confluence.
