Celestial Peak

Chapter 199: Splitting the Skies

In this world, there are three ancient places that connect to ancient times that are beyond the eras.

They say that these three places were the resting places of the Gods that sought after power or something else entirely. These places were referred to as the [Three Last Resting Places of the Gods] it was a majestic place that held countless treasures and secrets.

In one of these resting places, is a single scripture that commands the shackles that bind the realm. It is a scripture that acts as the key to the world that will lead to a greater but chaotic future.

The Overturning Nine Heaven Scriptures is this said scriptures, there once was a man who seeks its powers in order to break free of his endless pursuit of strength. But in his pursuit of freedom, the only thing he got was another path to tread on.

Connected to Heaven and Hell, he now faces four of the greatest geniuses in this era. But standing before the four, he was calm and collected, just like the true peak cultivator that he is.

With both hands held behind his back, Wang Ling smirked and said, "Please, I know you four are itching to fight me. But I do not have the time to dally, please, come at me with your best capabilities to the point I can consider you people as opponents." Wang Ling's voice was full of sincerity.

But that sincerity was the single factor that made the other four hate him. With a glare, Xiang Ning brought out a spear and kicked the ground as he circulated his qi around his meridians.

With a boom, the stage began to shake and he shot forth towards Wang Ling. A bright golden light appeared from his spear and a sharp intent came out of it soon after, "[Rising Light of the Heavens]!" Xiang Ning yelled out.

Wang Ling raised a brow as he poured his qi on his body, "So, he is already at the peak of the level-2 master in spearmanship. Not bad but not good enough." With that said, he moved to the side and as if he was ghost managed to slip past Xiang Ning's attack.

Xiang Ning did not manage to react properly as a kick abruptly halted most of his breathing and his body sent to the skies at breakneck speed. He groaned in pain and his eyes caught sight of Wang Ling looking at him from below.

[This bastard!] he was screaming on the inside but he could not say anything as his voice could not escape his mouth. His qi also began to scatter throughout his body making it hard to control.

While Xiang Ning was kicked above, the other two, Li Yourong and Qin Lim moved quickly in order to get the upper hand on Wang Ling who just made a move.

Li Yourong held a saber while Qin Lim had his fist clenched tightly. Li Yourong went to target his back while Qin Lim his front.

"[Jade Mountain Cleaver]!"

"[Heavenly Fire Fist]!"

Both unleashed techniques that could very well be the strongest of the current generation. The qi of the world began to bend and Wang Ling began to feel the pressure, the twos coordination was not half bad, he was entrapped and can no longer dodge.

[Good, that's the way! Use the openings that I show!] He thought and with a wave of his right hand and a twist of his torso, Wang Ling's Heaven's Will found its way to blocking Li Yourong's saber. But as he blocked Li Yourong;s saber, the fist of Qin Lim was left unhindered and hit his side.

Boom!

Wang Ling was blown away, and the pain he received was directly felt in his ribs. He groaned in pain and as he was blown away, the sword that was keeping Li Yourong at bay lost most of its strength.

Li Yourong kicked Wang Ling up where Zhuang Jie was already located.

Boom!

Wang Ling felt someone hit him in the back and the sky began to seem closer. As he flew hundreds of meters above. Wang Ling opened his eyes and there, he saw Zhuan Jie radiating a radiant light whilst holding a sword.

"Your arrogance is your downfall!" Zhuan Jie uttered as he collected enough heavenly qi to slice Wang Ling.

Those watching was anticipating something, Xiang Fei'er, Wang Yue, and Yan Renhuo was at the edge of their seats as they watched Wang Ling's predicament. But Wang Hong stood still with his mind clear and sight unmoving.

[Older brother is not something a mere Zhuan Jie can take. Zhuan Jie was oftentimes compared to me and they think that only a mere fifteen people stand at the very peak in the younger generation in terms of combat prowess but the truth is only one truly stands there with his head already looking up at the only people who could be his opponents that man is my Older Brother!]

"[Heavenly Execution]!"

Wang Ling smirked at the sight of Zhuan Jie's little movement. With a move of his hands and will, Wang Ling's sword became heavier as 10,000 swords. With a 50,000 kilogram sword in hand, Wang Ling waved his sword to meet Zhuang Jie's.

"You're pretty good, but your sword lacks substance, it lacks weight and sharpness." With that said, Wang Ling's sword danced like it was alive.

His angelic qi gathered and its sharpness increased, he shrouded the bits of hellish qi that lingers in his sword with pure angelic qi, with a smile, Wang Ling's sword qi exploded.

Zhuan Jie's eyes dilated at the sight of a monster unfolding before him.

"Sword Heart??" Zhuan Jie mumbled.

"[Heaven Vanquisher Fourth Form: Sky Splitter]!" Wang Ling did not shout but instead mumbled. He moved his sword and with a single slash, Zhuan Jie's sword was cracked and in a span of a few moments, the clouds parted as the setting sun dyed the world orange.
