Although Ling Xiao didn’t like White Cloud Great Master, he had benefited from the other party. He naturally didn’t seek this old man’s defeat.
As for that black-robed person, he truly disliked the other party’s character. He was arrogant and rude. Moreover, he talked about crippling others at every turn, believing the entire world belonged to his family.
“Bang!”
“Puff——!”
White Cloud Great Master vomited a mouthful of blood and miserably fell to the ground, heavily landing on a rock.
“I’m addressing you as Uncle Master to give you some face. Don’t be fool enough to reject it!”
On the other side, the black-robed man calmly appeared out of the dust cloud. Other than some slightly torn clothes, he didn’t have any other injuries.
It was obvious that he had had an upper hand in this battle.
He had completely crushed White Cloud Great Master.
White Cloud Great Master just lay there. His face was deathly pale as if he had almost no blood. His aura was also much weaker.
At this moment, even a Rank Eight Martial Vein Martial Master could kill him.
This scene finally broke White Cloud Great Master’s mystical status in his disciples’ hearts.
Although Beast King Palace’s disciple had injured White Cloud Great Master in one punch, because it had happened too suddenly, not many people had known about it.
Therefore, its impact had not been that big.
This time was different. All eleven disciples had clearly seen White Cloud Great Master being beaten and seriously injured.
Who could have expected that White Cloud Great Master, who had once been considered a myth, would be defeated so easily by a young martial artist not even 30 years old.
Some people had strange thoughts in their hearts.
Even Ming Tian who always looked confident and calm had a dull expression, and his mind was in chaos.
However, speaking about it, White Cloud Great Master was truly miserable.
He was partial towards Heavenly Ren Academy’s disciples, especially Ming Tian, whom he was particularly fond of. But when things came to an end, no one came forward to support him.
As for the disciples of the Hidden Dragon Battalion, they had no good feelings towards this old man.
In the end, this old man was truly too partial. He had only himself to blame for falling to this state.
“Hahahaha, Uncle Master, ah Uncle Master, you are still a loser in life. You are already dying, but no one is willing to support you.”
The black-robed man laughed heartily.
“You…”
White Cloud Great Master was sad in his heart, but he couldn’t speak.
If only the disciples of the Hidden Dragon Battalion had treated him like this, he would have understood. After all, he had been unfair to them.
But even Ming Tian didn’t show any concern. He found this most difficult to bear.
“Rest assured, Uncle Master! I won’t kill you. It’s forbidden to kill or cripple fellow disciples, however…”
The black-robed man suddenly showed an evil smile and instantly appeared next to Ming Tian.
He then intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Zuo Leng’s corpse and muttered to himself: “Originally, I intended to take Ming Tian and Zuo Leng, but I didn’t expect that kid named Ling Xiao to be so amazing.”
Then, he looked at Ming Tian and said with a smile: “Now, you have seen everything. As I told you when I met you privately before, your master is truly no good.”
“What do you want to do?”
Ming Tian came back to his senses, but he didn’t have Ling Xiao’s terrifying prediction ability and movement technique. Therefore, he knew that he wouldn’t be able to escape this black-robed man’s pursuit.
“Don’t worry. I won’t kill you. It would truly be a shame. It’s really rare to have a potential that exceeds seven-stars. How about it? Would you like to go with me?”
The black-robed man smiled and asked.
Ming Tian actually didn’t refuse but simply fell into silence.
“Boy, you should understand the principle of ‘a fine bird chooses a tree to nest in!’ I guess White Cloud old man has already told you, but the so-called nine ranks of Martial Veins are just the foundation. In the sect, it is called the Martial Vein Realm!”
The black-robed man continued: “Only after the nine martial veins are developed, can you successfully enter the Transcendent Realm, which is the real beginning of your martial arts cultivation. This stage is also called the Transcendent Realm!”
“Above the nine ranks of Martial Vein, there are nine ranks of the Transcendent realm! After that, only a few can successfully step into the Celestial Realm!”
The black-robed man was very calm.
However, when his words entered Ling Xiao and the others’ ears, they were shocked.
Ling Xiao had thought that the Transcendent Sage Realm was already the strongest realm, but he hadn’t expected for there to be a Celestial Realm above the Transcendent Realm!
What kind of realm was that?
“I already knew this.”
Ming Tian opened his mouth: “Master had indeed said that the Martial Vein Realm is just the phase to develop one’s martial veins and solidify one’s foundations. It can’t even be regarded as a real martial artist! The Transcendent Realm is the real beginning of martial arts, extricating oneself from ordinary shackles!”
“You know it well. Then, you should understand that although your cultivation base is already Late Rank Nine Martial Vein, you are still an unqualified disciple who hasn’t even cultivated to the perfection of the foundation phase. After entering the sect, you will not even be a low-grade disciple because your Master, White Cloud old man, is a low-grade disciple.”
The black-robed man added with a smile: “If you follow your Master, the greatest achievement of your life will be nothing more than becoming a low-grade disciple. Do you truly plan to spend your life like that?”
At this moment, Ling Xiao had already noticed that that black-robed man was bewitching Ming Tian.
However, this kind of bewitching’s temptation was truly big. In any case, he had already been expelled from White Cloud Great Master’s tutelage. If this black-robed man was willing to take him, he wouldn’t care.
It could be seen clearly from today’s situation.
Without strength, you don’t even have basic dignity or the right to choose your way of death!
If the black-robed man truly wanted to kill them today, only Ling Xiao might have been able to escape. All others would have already died.
This was strength!
Terrifying strength!
Not to mention just the people here, if this black-robed man wanted to destroy Hollow Cloud City, it would only take a moment.
This was reality!
“White Cloud old man, do you deny my words? You can’t even defeat me. Can you defeat my Master?”
The black-robed man looked at White Cloud Great Master and said, “You shouldn’t ruin the future of this genius because of your own will.”
White Cloud Great Master, however, said nothing.
Reality made him unable to utter a word. He had no confidence to say anything now.
“Don’t embarrass my Master. Just say what exactly do you want to do?”
Ming Tian loudly said.
“You still don’t understand? Follow me back to Moonlight Sect, and my Master will directly let you enter his apprenticeship. That status is much higher than an ordinary disciple’s, and you’ll be able to enter the inner sect faster!”
The black-robed man added: “White Cloud old man is inferior to an ant in front of my Master. What can you get with him?”
When the black-robed man said these words, his eyes were filled with insane worship.
Celestial Realm?
That was a realm above the Transcendent Realm!
You had to first break through the nine ranks of the Transcendent Realm before you had a chance to step into this realm.
The cultivation of the nine ranks of Martial Vein was already hard enough. The difficulty of cultivating the nine ranks of Transcendent Realm could be imagined.
In the view of this black-robed man, those beings able to step into the Celestial Realm were simply godlike existences.
Ming Tian was obviously shaken.
He seriously considered the suggestion of this black-robed man.
“Don’t miss this opportunity again! I will give you 15 minutes to consider. If you miss it, you don’t need to ever think again in the future!”
The black-robed man added: “The temperament of my Master, ‘Demonic Flame Celestial Worthy,’ is not good. He clearly said that I should receive some disciples. If I’m not successful, heh heh…”
His words were filled with threats.
