Chapter 169: Cripple the Dantian! Translator: KurazyTolanzuraytor Editor: Lucas "Su Tong!" Duan Ling Tian’s expression was gloomy as he spoke in a low voice that was mixed with a breathtaking icy-coldness from the depths of hell.... Su Li, Tian Hu, and Xiao Xun were injured one after the other. The rage within his heart had accumulated to the brink of explosion! Su Tong withdrew his cold and fierce gaze from Xiao Xun and moved it onto Duan Ling Tian. A strand of mischief jumped about within his gaze. "What? Angry already? Can’t take it anymore?" As he spoke up to this point, Su Tong’s tone changed and brought coldness with it. "Then when you used despicable means to sneak attack my cousin, Su Lan, and killed him, did you ever think of his parents’ feelings? Today, I won’t kill you; I’ll only cripple your cultivation. In the future, if you appear before me again, I’ll surely kill you!" The corners of Duan Ling Tian’s mouth slightly trembled, then a cold smile appeared on it. "You want to cripple my cultivation? Then it will depend on if you have the capability or not!" Presently, Duan Ling Tian’s reason had completely been suppressed by his rage. He took a step forward with an imposing manner that shot through the sky. As for the matter with Su Lan, he didn’t care to explain! "Grab him!" Su Tong abruptly ordered. Whoosh! Whoosh! Instantly, the two young men behind Su Tong flew out and rushed towards Duan Ling Tian. These two people were both ninth level Core Formation martial artists. They pounced at Duan Ling Tian in full fury and approached from both sides. They extended their hands with the intention of grabbing onto Duan Ling Tian’s shoulder and causing Duan Ling Tian to be unable to move. "You’re courting death!" Faced with the two people who flashed towards him, Duan Ling Tian’s gaze went slightly cold and his hand descended onto the Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword on his waist, then he took a step forward and moved to intercept the two people. Suddenly. Sword Drawing Arts! Duan Ling Tian made his move. 15 ancient mammoth silhouettes condensed into form above him... A dazzling, violet sword light seemed to have eyes as it moved like a shadow and flashed past the sky with peerless sharpness. At the same time, accompanied by two dazzling and resplendent red roses that bloomed in the air, two shrill cries echoed in tow. Bang! Bang! Two severed arms from two different people crashed onto the floor. The two young men who approached in full fury just a moment ago now had ghastly pale expressions. They retreated to a side after stopping the blood at the spot their arms were severed, and they looked at Duan Ling Tian with dreadful gazes.... Never had they imagined that Duan Ling Tian would still resist even when it had come to this! Cold sweat dripped out of their foreheads and sadness appeared within their eyes as they gazed at the two arms beneath Duan Ling Tian’s feet. If Duan Ling Tian knew of the thoughts of these two people, he would surely laugh in disdain. Not resist? Waiting for death? "You..." Even Su Tong didn’t expect Duan Ling Tian to actually dare to severe the arms of those two Su Clan disciples, and for a moment his eyes glared widely, then his body started trembling in extreme fury. On Su Tong’s body, Origin Energy ravaged, and 40 ancient mammoth silhouettes condensed into form above him! "Duan Ling Tian, I originally thought that you were an intelligent person... but I didn’t think you were actually so stupid. It’s already come to this and you actually dare to resist!" Su Tong’s cold voice seemed to sound from the mouth of an Asura, and mixed within was towering killing intent. "You want to cripple my cultivation and you don’t even let me resist?" Duan Ling Tian sneered. This Su Tong was really laughable. He wanted to cripple Duan Ling Tian’s cultivation but didn’t allow him to resist? Could it be that he wanted Duan Ling Tian to stand on the spot and wait to be killed? "Would there be any difference in the outcome whether you resist or not?" Su Tong continued as he walked step by step towards Duan Ling Tian. He spoke with an extremely low voice. "However, you daring to resist has completely enraged me, and I’ve now changed my mind.... I can’t kill you inside Paladin Academy, so I’ll cripple your cultivation! When you leave Paladin Academy, you will lose your life!" Duan Ling Tian didn’t have a shred of fear as he watched Su Tong walk over, and his eyes flashed with a strange light. "Then it depends on if you have the capability...." "What? Do you think that with your ninth level Core Formation Stage cultivation and the grade seven spirit weapon in your hand, you’ll be able to go against the will of I, a third level Origin Core martial artist?" Su Tong’s voice was filled with disdain. "Even if you used your grade seven spirit weapon, you would at most be able to exert the strength of 15 ancient mammoths. I, however, am at the third level of the Origin Core Stage, so even if I don’t use a spirit weapon, I still have sufficient strength to exert the strength of 40 ancient mammoths! In front of me, you’re puny strength is like an ant!" Su Tong said this word for word. It was as if he wanted to completely annihilate Duan Ling Tian’s last shred of confidence.... "Heh.... Looks like you’re extremely confident of your strength." The corners of Duan Ling Tian’s mouth curled into a nice angle as his sword-shaped brows raised and his eyes flashed with a strange light. "You’re still stubborn even at a time like this.... Needless to say, your courage is really shocking!" Meanwhile, Su Tong had already arrived nearby Duan Ling Tian, and his face was covered in a layer of ice. "However, it’s useless to rely solely on courage sometimes.... You’ll soon know how laughable your little courage is before formidable strength!" "I’m waiting to see." Duan Ling Tian’s eyes flashed with streams of light as he looked at Su Tong with a calm gaze. "Ignorant!" An evil flame rose to life within Su Tong when he saw Duan Ling Tian still maintain his composure, and his eyes were suffused with killing intent. Whoosh! Su Tong took a step forward. A gust of wind howled out, blowing the dust on the ground to fill the air. "Duan Ling Tian, I want to see whether you’ll still be carefree like this when your Dantian is crippled and you’ve become a cripple." Su Tong’s voice became even more icy cold, and his fierce gaze seemed to be able to see through Duan Ling Tian. "I’m curious as well. When you’ve become a cripple and recall this scene, will you feel that everything is just so laughable?" Duan Ling Tian eyes flashed with a cold light as he rebuked. He was unwilling to show weakness. "You’re courting death!" Su Tong’s rage had reached an extent that was difficult to suppress, and his body flashed out as if transforming into a gust of wind as he blew towards Duan Ling Tian. In the air, 40 ancient mammoth silhouettes dashed out in tow! "Duan Ling Tian!" Xiao Yu had just given Su Li, Tian Hu, and Xiao Xun gold injury pills when he saw this scene. His face went pale and he was furious to the point that his eyes seemed like they were splitting! At this moment, he only hated himself for being too weak and unable to help Duan Ling Tian. Duan Ling Tian stood on the spot. His cold gaze focused onto Su Tong, who flashed directly towards him, and a cold smile appeared on the corners of his mouth. You want to cripple my Dantian? Then I’ll let you try the feeling of having your Dantian crippled! Bang! Meanwhile, Su Tong had already arrived nearby Duan Ling Tian. He slammed out his fist that raged with Origin Energy, then the Origin Energy condensed together and slammed towards Duan Ling Tian’s Dantian. He obviously wanted to directly shatter Duan Ling Tian’s Dantian! Su Tong’s face emitted a cold smile. It was as if he had already seen the scene of Duan Ling Tian’s Dantian being shattered. Whoosh! At almost the exact same time, Duan Ling Tian moved, and the Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword in his hand lightly trembled... A trace of disdain appeared on the corners of Su Tong’s mouth when he saw this. A mere ninth level Core Formation martial artist... even if Duan Ling Tian had a grade seven spirit weapon, he would still disregard Duan Ling Tian. However, the disdain on the corners of his mouth completely froze before long, and his eyes opened wide as if he had seen something terrifying.... Om! A bloody light flashed out of the blade of the Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword in Duan Ling Tian’s hand and condensed into a blood crescent. The blood crescent was fast like a bolt of lightning as it moved to intercept Su Tong’s fist strike that was condensed with Origin Energy. It was precisely the Blood Crescent Inscription on the Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword! At this moment, Duan Ling Tian’s eyes were filled with coldness. "No!" Accompanied by a sad and bitter cry, Su Tong’s fist was pierced through by the blood crescent, bringing about a trace of dazzling fresh blood that formed a red rose in the air. The blood crescent’s momentum didn’t slow down and moved directly towards Su Tong’s Dantian! Puchi! It easily entered Su Tong’s body and shattered his Dantian. "Ah!!" Su Tong’s body trembled and he abruptly shouted. The feeling of the Origin Energy in his Dantian dissipating nearly caused him to forget the pain that was coming from his fist. Putong! Su Tong’s legs went soft as he directly kneeled before Duan Ling Tian. "No....No...." Su Tong’s eyes were open wide. He was dazed for a moment, and he continuously shook his head. He was slightly out of his wits, as he was unwilling to believe that all of this was real. "You.... You actually crippled my Dantian!" Su Tong looked at Duan Ling Tian with a pair of eyes that flickered with the lustre of hatred. He never would have imagined that this Duan Ling Tian would possess such a terrifying offensive inscription that could not only break through his attack, but even pierce through his Dantian. It caused the Origin Energy within his entire body to dissipate and make him into a complete and utter cripple. Duan Ling Tian had a calm expression when he saw this, and a light flashed within his eyes. "Didn’t you say that you wanted to cripple my Dantian? Now, how do you feel? How’s the feeling of becoming a cripple?" 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚 Today, if it wasn’t for him possessing a Blood Crescent Inscription, Su Tong’s fate would actually he his. This Su Tong was so cruel and merciless, wanting to cripple his Dantian at every turn! So he gave him a taste of his own medicine! Su Tong’s face flushed red. He got so angry from what Duan Ling Tian said that he spat out a mouthful of blood. Within his head, Duan Ling Tian’s words from before reverberated. "I’m curious as well. When you’ve become a cripple and recall this scene, will you feel that everything is just so laughable?" So it turned out that this Duan Ling Tian had planned everything and was just waiting for him to charge over to use an offensive inscription to destroy his Dantian! Yeah, now that he recalled it, it was indeed laughable.... "The Su Clan won’t....won’t let you off...." Su Tong’s body trembled from his agitated state of mind, and he fainted from the loss of blood. "Clan Brother!" The expressions of the two Su Clan disciples whose arms were severed by Duan Ling Tian went ghastly pale, and a trace of dread appeared within their eyes.... They had never imagined that this Duan Ling Tian was so terrifying. Not only was his natural talent in the Martial Dao heaven-defying, he even possessed offensive inscriptions that were sufficient to deal with Origin Core martial artists. Even within the entire domain of the Crimson Sky Kingdom, such an inscription was still extremely precious! In the distance, Su Li, Tian Hu, and Xiao Xun’s injuries had only just slightly recovered, and they stood up with great difficulty with the support of Xiao Yu. However, when they saw what happened in the distance, they were completely dumbstruck. When Duan Ling Tian faced the third level Origin Core Su Tong, they were practically in despair and felt that Duan Ling Tian’s cultivation would surely be crippled by Su Tong.... But the end result exceed their expectations!
