Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled-Chapter 375 - 371: Xia Tianming Stands Firm Against the Martial Gods

Chapter 375: Chapter 371: Xia Tianming Stands Firm Against the Martial Gods

In Xia Tianming’s hand, the Void Cauldron was summoned, and he looked around with a fierce expression.

"I advise everyone not to be easily swayed by the Four Great Clans."

"No treasure is more important than your own life."

The Void Cauldron seemed to echo his words, emitting a strong light that filled those who saw it with fear.

However, the people opposite, who were loose cultivators, seemed completely fearless, watching Xia Tianming with his appearance and the motionless Xia Feng further confirmed their thoughts.

The leader of one of the small families spoke, encouraging, "Don’t be afraid, everyone, we have so many people, he can’t possibly hold out on his own."

"That particularly powerful one has already fallen into a coma. All we have to do is take down this old one, and it’s a success!"

"Even if we can’t keep the Ancient Divine Artifact, the rewards from the Four Great Clans are enough for us to take this risk!"

More people chimed in, "Yes, we have so many people, there’s no need to fear him!"

After speaking, these people swarmed forward again, and Xia Tianming’s expression turned resolute and fierce.

He slammed his palm heavily onto the cauldron’s body, and a dense black light instantly enveloped the surrounding people.

He didn’t dare to use all his divine power on attacking these people; instead, he let the Void Cauldron emit an almost transparent ripple, enveloping the mountain peak behind him.

At the very least, he couldn’t let these people disturb Xia Feng’s recovery.

After all, whether they could successfully escape depended on Xia Feng’s recovery; Xia Tianming alone couldn’t handle so many people.

However, what happened next left Xia Tianming helpless. As he began to use the Great Dao of Space, a mass of black vortex began to appear in midair.

The momentum was so great that even across several mountain peaks, one could sense that something was happening here.

In the past, he thought that his ability to invoke celestial phenomena with his dao was a good thing, but now that the fight was on, it only felt troublesome to Xia Tianming.

Although these celestial phenomena could deepen his dao’s application and impose a greater psychological burden on the opponents, they could even sometimes drive the enemy away without a fight.

But now, the loose cultivators opposite were so blinded by treasure that they didn’t care at all about the black vortex suspended above them.

The existence of this black vortex only made more people aware of his presence, gathering like sharks smelling blood.

Xia Tianming squinted his eyes, continuing to punch the Void Cauldron.

"One sound! Shatter the universe!"

Now that his cultivation had increased, although the cultivation of the people around him was higher than his, with the energy of the Ancient Divine Artifact, the Void Cauldron, he managed to make one sound, causing those around to spit blood.

Even the expressions of a few at the front visibly wilted.

The ones behind hesitated, but seeing more and more people attracted by this celestial phenomena, they gritted their teeth and charged again.

"Two sounds! Heaven-shattering, Earth-annihilating!"

Xia Tianming took a deep breath, and with his second punch, he exerted significantly more force than the first, as a larger and blacker ripple spread out centered from the Void Cauldron.

"Three sounds! Broken Yin Yang!"

The ripple from the third sound directly shattered the bodies of the three wilted at the front.

Their divine bodies couldn’t withstand the power of the waves, their flesh stagnated for a moment, then exploded.

As they were close to Xia Tianming, blood splattered half of his body.

Strangely, the bloodstains on Xia Tianming stayed on him, but the blood on the Void Cauldron was absorbed completely, leaving no traces.

Those at the back no longer dared to rush forward madly but watched the Void Cauldron in Xia Tianming’s hand with some fear.

Amid the three sounds, they realized that the sound from the Void Cauldron got stronger with each subsequent one.

This was only the third sound, and no one knew if there was a fourth, fifth, or even more sounds...

Xia Tianming took a deep breath, "Ha... Now you know to calm down after people have died?"

The loose cultivators in the front were silent, but a few in the back were still clamoring.

"I don’t believe your move has no side effects."

"To wield an Ancient Divine Artifact with a mere Profound Tier First Layer Martial God Realm, you’ll likely end up like that other person soon."

"We just have to wait here for you to exhaust yourself."

A flash of urgency passed quickly in Xia Tianming’s eyes but was soon hidden.

He snickered, "Which family are you from?"

"Afraid to face me yourself, yet inciting others to trouble me?"

"Isn’t your plan too obvious?"

"Or did you originally intend to use these people’s lives to pave the way for your Four Great Clans to take me down?"

The surrounding loose cultivators’ expressions changed slightly, and their eyes subconsciously glanced towards the person.

They turned to see that the person wore the attire of the Ximen Clan, adding a bit of contemplation to their looks.

The expressions around calmed considerably, seemingly only wanting to surround Xia Tianming until the people from the Four Great Clans arrived for further arrangements.

Yet, someone shouted again from the back, "He can’t fight us all with his two fists. Some of us should lock him down from afar, while others circle around into the mountains to find the other one."

"No matter what we gain in the end, we split it evenly, allowing us to take down the opponent and ensure at least basic fairness."

The expressions of the crowd showed a hint of excitement, while Xia Tianming’s expression changed, evidently concerned about Xia Feng in the mountains.

But with his limited cultivation, handling both ends was understandably challenging.

Xia Tianming roared, his left hand conjuring a tiny vortex, and after inserting his fingers into it, he pinched them hard.

This was a void secret technique he had developed based on the Xia Family’s Secret Technique, the Nine Orifice Exquisite Heart.

Once activated, this void secret technique could enhance Xia Tianming’s strength by one tier, but only for an hour.

After an hour, all his cultivation would be sealed for an hour, automatically unsealing once the time was up.

In the Dream Realm Pearl, an hour outside was nearly a thousand years.

Xia Tianming could only hope that Xia Feng would emerge from the Dream Realm Pearl before his secret technique ended, then fiercely drive these people back.

His eyes glinted coldly, and his aura began to escalate quickly.

The people around who intended to attack him paused their actions, watching Xia Tianming warily, uncertain of his condition.

Someone recognized his intentions, shouting harshly, "He’s using a secret technique! Stop him quickly, or we’ll all die!"
