Chapter 1573 Beyond Human Capabilities
Chapter 1573 Beyond Human Capabilities
When Yuan swung Number One Under Heaven at her, Bai Ning prepared to confront it with her claws, which were sharper and more durable than even Mythic-grade treasures. However, moments before they clashed, her instincts kicked in, causing her to avoid the sword instead.
Sha!
A powerful sword light swung past Bai Ning's claw and struck the Purple Sea behind her, splitting it in half.
Although the sword light didn't touch her, its aura grazed her hand, and that was enough to cut through her skin.
Bai Ning swallowed nervously at this and cried inwardly, 'If I hadn't avoided his sword at the very last moment, my entire hand would've been cut off! I have never seen such a powerful Soul Weapon before!' Seeing Bai Ning's nervous expression, Yuan looked at Number One Under Heaven and showed a bittersweet smile, "You're too powerful."
After pondering for a moment, he put away the sword and retrieved Dragon's Soul again.
"What is the meaning of this? Are you looking down on me?" Bai Ning's brows deeply furrowed.
"I mean, it's not like I am trying to kill you." Yuan calmly said.
"Do you really think you have what it takes to kill me?! You're thinking too highly of yourself just because you manage to fight with a few ordinary immortals! Today, I, Bai Ning, shall teach you what a prodigy is like!" Bai Ning roared before charging at Yuan, releasing a relentless assault on him.
Yuan parried all her attacks, but the impact from her strikes was far stronger than those of all the immortals combined, enough to push him back.
'So it wasn't just his sword that contributed to his prowess! This bastard must have a unique physique that rivals demons!' Bai Ning gritted her teeth as she used all her power, which she rarely did.
Hours passed, but Bai Ning couldn't see any opportunity to defeat Yuan. He was akin to an unsurmountable wall—one that could regenerate any damage in the blink of an eye.
'Is he really a demon?!' Bai Ning began doubting whether he was actually a demon.
Although she had never fought or seen a demon before, she'd heard plenty of rumors about them, especially how they terrorized the world with their god-like healing abilities—the same one Yuan was displaying at this moment.
"Are you really a demon?!" Bai Ning asked without stopping the fight.
"What do you think?" Yuan casually responded.
"I think your healing abilities are ridiculous!" "Thanks." "I am not complimenting you! It's so ridiculous that it's not helping your case!"
Yuan chuckled and said, "People will believe what they want to believe regardless of the facts, even if it's right in their eyes. There's no need to try to convince these people, as I would only be wasting my breath."
"You will regret this in the future!"
"Are you worried about me? If so, thanks." Yuan chuckled.
"Shut up!"
Several more hours later, Bai Ning ran out of spiritual energy. Usually, she'd be able to fight for months, if not years, without exhausting her spiritual energy, but she had to use a tremendous amount of spiritual energy just to hurt Yuan.
Meanwhile, Yuan was still full of energy from absorbing her attacks, transforming it into his own energy.
"How… are you… still so full of energy?!" Bai Ning was in disbelief.
"I just am. Anyway, it's been fun, but I have other things to do."
"Where do you think you're going?!" One of the immortals shouted at him.
Yuan fell silent and glanced at him through his mask.
After a moment of silence, Yuan suddenly withdrew Number One Under Heaven and charged at the immortal with his movement technique.
[Immortal Rendering Sword Strike!]
The immortal was caught off guard by Yuan's surprise attack and failed to react in time before being sliced in half.
However, the immortal didn't die and managed to survive with just his soul. Yet, Yuan swung his sword again, using nothing but his Enhanced Sword Aura.
"Nooo!"
The immortal cried out loud, his voice filled with fear.
Unfortunately, Yuan didn't spare another thought before cutting down his soul, killing him entirely.
Ding!
<You have achieved an impossible feat by defeating a Cultivator that was at least nine realms above you!>
<You have acquired the title 'Beyond Human Capabilities>
[Beyond Human Capabilities: When fighting a Cultivator, your base stats will be boosted by 100%]
[Defeat a Cultivator who is at least nine realms above you without using Heaven's Supremacy]
[Completed]
With two of the most challenging tasks completed, Yuan felt like he was making progress for Heaven's Supremacy.
"What the fuck have he done?!" Kelan was greatly shocked by Yuan's actions.
In fact, nobody there expected Yuan to suddenly kill one of the immortals there.
"YOU SON OF A BITCH!" The other immortals quickly reacted to the death of their companion, their faces flushed with anger. Yet, none of them dared to attack Yuan.
"You will regret this, you damn demon!"
Instead of fighting him, the immortals turned around and ran away.
As for the Misty Fox, he also ran away. Kelan appeared shortly after with a deep frown on his face.
"You… why did you do that?" he asked.
Yuan looked at him and calmly responded, "Why not?"
"That man you killed belonged to the Nine Heavens Law and Order! Not only do they oversee the Nine Heavens Eternal Grotto, but they're also responsible for keeping order in the Nine Heavens! Their influence is second to the Celestial Emperor! And you just killed one of them!" "Is that so? I got unlucky, I guess."
"..."
Kelan suddenly turned to look at Bai Ning and said, "Can you please leave us alone?"
"And who the hell are you to command me?" Bai Ning frowned.
Kelan's body suddenly released an oppressive aura that filled the entire Purple Sea.
"Please leave… while I am still asking nicely." "..." Bai Ning narrowed her eyes at him.
After a moment of silence, she turned to look at Yuan and spoke, "This isn't over. I'll defeat you the next time we meet!"
Bai Ning left the scene shortly after, leaving Yuan and Kelan alone in the middle of the Purple Sea.
