Invincible Divine Doctor of the Beautiful Lady-Chapter 956 - 930: Ying Longtian’s Strength

"Ha ha!" Ying Longtian laughed instead of getting angry, his laughter was so unrestrained, yet so bold, with a hint of disdainful contempt.

Ying Longtian looked at the Demon Clan member and said, "You really have a big mouth, there are few who dare to boast so boldly in front of me, Ying Longtian. Those who have, are already dead. Boasting has its price. I’m afraid it’s a price you cannot afford."

The Demon Clan member also gave a cold smile and said, "It seems like boasting is something you humans love to do. We the Demon Clan disdain it. Boasting is also your human specialty. As for disciples of the Yanshan Sect, I haven’t taken them seriously. Since you are so ungrateful, today I’ll let you taste my prowess."

With that said, the Demon Clan member’s giant sword descended towards Ying Longtian as if cleaving the sky and splitting the earth. With one slash, a river of Sword Force a hundred zhang long surged forth, crashing down, truly earth-shattering.

The might of this sword was felt even by Tangyu and the others in the distance, filling them with an extreme sense of danger. The power of this sword was several times stronger than before. If the Demon Clan had used such power earlier, Tangyu and the others would have been in deep trouble.

"Sigh, ignorance." Standing amidst the wind vortex, Ying Longtian remained unfazed, exuding a calm indifference.

He simply flipped his palm, releasing a series of seals towards the Demon Clan member’s sword, suppressing it.

No matter how sharp the Demon Clan’s sword is, how could it contend against a mountain?

Under such suppression, the sword force of the Demon Clan member was utterly destroyed with no suspense. The palm seal shattered heavily on the Demon General’s sword, sending the Demon General flying backward, with a trace of blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.

The Demon Clan member’s expression changed drastically, eyes full of astonishment: "What is this, the ’Overturning King Seal’? How do you possess such means, who exactly are you?"

"Overturning King Seal?" Tangyu and the others were curious and puzzled; it sounded like an exceptionally powerful technique.

Zhuang Qian was also full of surprise: "It’s actually the Overturning King Seal, it seems Ying Longtian has some Immortal Fate. The power of this Seal Technique is extremely terrifying; if cultivated to its peak, it is said to rival an Immortal. No wonder Ying Longtian is so famous; he has such an extraordinary Immortal Fate."

Seeing that Tangyu and the others were still a bit confused, Zhuang Qian continued to explain, "Seal Techniques are profound Divine Power Dharma Gates, not something an ordinary person can cultivate. Even a supreme expert in the Golden Core Realm finds it difficult to succeed. Ying Longtian is evidently not in the Golden Core Realm, yet he mastered a Seal Technique; it’s truly terrifying. Such a person is incredibly rare in our entire Cultivation World. If this Seal Technique is cultivated to minor success, it can counter the Golden Core Realm with the Mystic Law Realm."

To counter the Golden Core Realm with the Mystic Law Realm is indeed extremely formidable and defiant of the norm.

Ying Longtian lightly smiled: "Didn’t I tell you, I’m Ying Longtian, a disciple of the Yanshan Sect? Realized how powerful I am now? But I’m curious, what about you? Which clan do you belong to in the Demon Clan? From your lineage, you seem quite noble, tell me and let me hear it."

The Demon Clan member said, "How could my identity be known to you? Your strength isn’t bad, if I weren’t injured, why would I fear you?"

"What if you weren’t injured? I could still kill you. Do you really think your strength is enough to contend with me?" Ying Longtian lightly chuckled, full of arrogance.

This level of boldness can only belong to such a master.

The Demon Clan member’s face was grim, casting a vicious look at Tangyu and the others, he said, "I will settle scores with each of you one by one later, today I’ll take my leave."

After saying this, the Demon Clan member waved his hand, causing a mist of blood to erupt. As the blood mist dissipated, the Demon Clan member vanished from sight.

Tangyu and the others widened their eyes, disappearing just like that? What kind of technique is this?

Ying Longtian slightly frowned: "Blood Shield Technique, it seems this Demon Clan member is quite unusual."

Ying Longtian shook his head and looked back at Tangyu and Zhuang Qian, saying: "You two are not bad." After saying this, he left directly, leaving a somewhat inexplicable feeling.

After Ying Longtian left, Zhuang Qian finally heaved a sigh of relief: "Thankfully we escaped this disaster, ha ha, this time we really gained some fortune amidst danger. Phew, that was close. Let’s go collect all the remaining Demon Hearts we haven’t collected yet, this time we have made a huge profit, enough to let our five people stand out."

Tangyu frowned and said, "Although we gained a lot this time, we also offended a powerful figure. The Demon Clan member was definitely a formidable adversary, even Ying Longtian couldn’t deal with him; his strength is at an unbelievable level. Once he recovers from his injuries, he will probably come looking for trouble with us."

Everyone fell into silence, for this issue was indeed very real.

If that Demon Clan member comes back for revenge, it will be very dangerous indeed.

Even injured, he’s so powerful; what terror would it be if he were at full strength?

Zhuang Qian shook his head and said, "It has come to this, there’s nothing more to say, we can only block with soldiers when the water comes. The pressing task now is to successfully become disciples of the Yanshan Sect and quickly enhance our strength. As long as we have sufficient strength, we won’t fear the Demon Clan’s revenge."

Tangyu nodded, "Indeed, power is the king’s way, the only way to protect ourselves. Therefore, we are now in a very urgent situation and must quickly improve our strength. Otherwise, if the Demon Clan returns, we are really in trouble."

The pressure, everyone felt extremely deep and heavy pressure.

This pressure is also a reminder for everyone to work hard in cultivation, to quickly improve their strength.

Zhuang Qian said, "But we shouldn’t worry too much. The Demon Clan member was seriously injured, and they just used the ’Blood Shield Technique.’ This spell, as far as I know, has significant backlash on the caster, driven by vital blood. Thus, while the Demon Clan member wants to heal their wounds, it won’t be quick. Though our time is precious, it’s not too short either. Of course, we shouldn’t lean too positively; bad possibilities still exist."

"No matter what, let’s enter the Yanshan Sect first. Everything else can be discussed later."

Everyone nodded, deciding not to think further. They went back to collect all the demon hearts, distributing them proportionately.

Once this was done, they checked the time; it was getting late, and it was time to head back.

When Tangyu and the others returned to the departure point, many had already arrived, and some from Lu Ji’s group emerged from the dense forest.

Some people emerged together, bursting into wild laughter, "Haha, finally out, alive at last. Being alive feels wonderful. If given another choice, I’d never participate in the disciple selection again; surviving is already a huge blessing."

Some appeared in a woeful state, missing limbs.

Only very few came out laughing.

The atmosphere of high spirits from arrival was gone, replaced with much lamentation.

"Alas, we came together to participate in the Yanshan Sect disciple selection, full of ambition, but didn’t expect the selection to be so difficult and dangerous. We were five, but now only two remain."

"Indeed, a thirty percent death rate seems understated; it’s likely around forty percent. It’s too brutal." fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

"No choice, reality is inherently brutal. Having chosen this path, there’s no room for complaints. The road of Immortal cultivation is paved with bones and blood. Our ambition has been nearly extinguished through this ordeal. In the future, it’s best to curb our wild ambitions and focus on cultivation at home."

"Yes, looking back, living peacefully in a small place might not be such a bad thing after all."

Many lamented, many were heartbroken, many looked through their bleak future, and many lost their drive for Immortal cultivation.

The path is arduous, destined to slap many harshly with reality, sending them off dejected.

Ying Longtian and the other five, dressed in white, arrived swiftly, drawing the crowd’s gaze.

The white-robed elder scanned the area with some authority, his imposing voice ringing out, "It seems this time the death rate exceeded thirty percent. You should feel fortunate to be alive, showing your strength. Now, everyone should submit all their gains for our calculation. The top two hundred will enter the second round; the rest are disqualified and should return home."

Each of the five elders took their positions, and people began ranking and submitting their things.

Murmurs spread through the crowd.

"How about you? How much do you have?"

"Not much, just a few dozen beast cores and demon cores. You?"

"About the same. I hope to make it into the top two hundred, but I’m nervous."

"I wonder how much Yao Jiguang and the Yang City Four have."

"I don’t know, let’s watch. I bet theirs is at least dozens of times ours."

"Yao Jiguang has five hundred and six points; that’s terrifying."

"Over five hundred points? I only have over twenty. The gap is huge."

Yao Jiguang’s score caused a uproar as soon as it was announced.

The scoring rules are: ten from the Fundamental Realm count as one point, one from the Mystic Law Realm First Layer counts as one point, Mystic Law Realm Second Layer counts as ten points, and Mystic Law Realm Third Layer counts as one hundred points. This scoring method applies to all demon cores, beast cores, and demon hearts.

Moreover, each person’s score is kept separate, ensuring fairness.

Quickly, scores of high-profile individuals came out, with the first layer scoring over five hundred points or even six hundred. The likes of Lei Shanfu, Qi Long, and Dong Xiaowu, from the second layer, scored over three hundred.

Seeing these scores, Tangyu and the others were reassured, with Tangyu’s score calculated to be over six hundred. Yu Feng and Zi Cang both surpassed four hundred, while even Luo Xiaobing had over three hundred, more than enough.
