Chapter 304: Puppet Martial Artist

Gong Yangan was good at saber techniques. Big and tall, although he was just seventeen years old, he seemed to be more than thirty.

Allegedly, Tuoba Shan was an unmatched divine archer. He possessed a Bow Martial Soul, and his palm techniques were very powerful.

However, this was just a rumor.

“Desperate Tower’s Tower Master is here!”

Perhaps, because today’s death challenge was too shocking, it actually caused Desperate Tower’s Tower Master to come in person.

Eh?

Ling Xiao looked at this person in surprise. That person wore a black face mask, but that person’s aura was very familiar.

No way…

Ling Xiao felt that his guess might be wrong; therefore, he shook his head and discarded his confusion.

“This Lord will preside over today’s battles, no one is allowed to interfere; otherwise, this lord will kill them without pardon!”

This Tower Master was a Celestial Realm powerhouse, and his killing intent was very terrifying. Fortunately, he was intentionally restraining it. Otherwise, just releasing it might have killed the audience.

No one dared to utter a word.

Even Outer Hall’s Elder White and Elder Black, who had come to watch the battles, didn’t dare.

In the eyes of a Celestial Realm powerhouse, even Rank Nine Transcendent Realm powerhouses were not worth mentioning.

“First match, Outer Sect’s former rank ten ‘Yang Cheng’ VS Outer Sect’s current rank ten ‘Ling Xiao’. Please enter the Desperate Tower.”

Although Desperate Tower was called a tower, it was just a dilapidated ruin where all death battles occurred.

The battle could be clearly spectated from the outside.

The Tower Master had just finished speaking, but Yang Cheng had already impatiently rushed out.

Judging from his movement technique, he was indeed much stronger than before. 

Ling Xiao also rose in the air and rushed towards the Desperate Tower.

His movement technique was much stronger than Yang Cheng’s, but he intentionally didn’t use it. Therefore, he seemed to be a bit slower.

“It’s starting!”

Many outer disciples took a deep breath.

Ling Xiao was just a new outer disciple, but his opponents were all old outer disciples.

From this point of view, this was also a conflict between the old and new.

Therefore, the outer disciples were very excited.

“Ling Xiao, although you overestimated yourself and issued death challenges to Senior Brother Jin Ming, Senior Brother Tuoba Shan, and Senior Brother Gong Yangnu, it’s a pity that you will not have a chance to fight them because you will die by my hands!”

Yang Cheng looked very excited as he roared.

The scenes of their previous battle played continuously in his mind. When he thought of that failure, he wanted to tear Ling Xiao into pieces.

On his body, his milky white true essence turned into a tornado that completely enveloped him.

His appearance couldn’t be seen clearly, but the Wind Cloud True Essence produced by his <Wind Cloud Art> was much stronger than before.

This terrifying tornado swept away the ruins’ bricks and formed a huge rubbish heap that floated above Yang Cheng’s head.

Boom!

Then, the fierce wind swept this seemingly over ten thousand pound rubbish heap at Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao, however, didn’t move.

As the rubbish heap approached, it suddenly fell apart and exploded.

Nevertheless, it seemed that Yang Cheng had expected that this move would not be enough to defeat Ling Xiao; this was just his greeting.

In the next moment, his fighting spirit rose to the extreme, and his terrifying aura writhed. Then, the original tornado expanded again, madly raging through the ruins.

Originally, he had already been a Half Great Master. Now that he had gotten true essence from Demonic Flame Celestial Worthy, his aura made many outer disciples shiver.

“This guy is far stronger than before!”

People who were familiar with Yang Cheng exclaimed.

“Yes, he is at least seven or eight times stronger!”

“Heh heh, I’ve already said before that Ling Xiao would die in the first match. He doesn’t need to fight the next matches.”

Seeing this scene, Dai Yuling tightly grabbed her Master Lan Yu’er’s hand.

“Master, please save Ling Xiao! He shouldn’t die for me.”

Lan Yu’er sighed.

Could she take action?

Not to mention Elder Black staring at her from one side, the Desperate Tower’s Tower Master would also not let her intervene.

This was a life-or-death battle.

However, if Ling Xiao was truly in fatal danger, could she remain still?

She felt that she couldn’t.

If she had to watch Ling Xiao die, she might as well break the sect’s rules!

Worst came to worst, she would be expelled from the sect.

However, seeing Ling Xiao’s expression, her worries unexpectedly disappeared in an instant.

He still looked indifferent, but Lan Yu’er could feel a powerful self-confidence from him.

“Yuling, don’t worry. Ling Xiao is far stronger than you think.”

Lan Yu’er said.

There was no basis for these words, but she believed that her judgment was not wrong.

In Desperate Tower, Ling Xiao watched Yang Cheng.

He had no intention of taking the initiative to attack.

Facing an unfamiliar opponent, it was better to attack later.

Naturally, if the opponent didn’t make the first move for a long time, he would have to think of something, but he had no intention of wasting time on Yang Cheng.

At most, three moves!

Ling Xiao set such a goal.

Naturally, one move would naturally be best.

Among the four opponents, only Jin Ming could pose a threat to him. As for the other three, he was truly not interested in them.

“Ling Xiao, this day next year will be your memorial day! You should regret that you injured me before!”

Suddenly, Yang Cheng shouted.

His entire body integrated with the huge tornado, and his hands actually turned into sharp ice blades, gleaming with a cold radiance.

Boom!

In the next moment, the storm wreaked havoc throughout Desperate Tower. Many people couldn’t even see what had happened.

“What a terrifying explosive power!”

“What terrifying strength!”

 “Is he still Yang Cheng? With this kind of attack power, he might not even lose against the top-five outer disciples.”

Yang Cheng’s attack reached Ling Xiao in a scant moment.

From the distance, it looked more like a tornado that had turned into a huge sword.

It was impossible for Ling Xiao to dodge it.

Naturally, this was just what the onlookers thought. 

As for Ling Xiao, a hint of a smile adorned his face.

The so-called trump card of Yang Cheng was completely exposed before his eyes.

Three moves?

Ling Xiao smiled in disdain. He had truly overestimated Yang Cheng.

This guy’s explosive power and strength were indeed more powerful, but in Ling Xiao’s eyes, this guy had become weaker.

Most of his body had been replaced with a puppet, so his flexibility and responsiveness were much worse.

After all, no matter how good a puppet was, it was inferior to a human body.

Besides, this fool Yang Cheng thought that he could defeat Ling Xiao by relying on pure force. He hadn’t realized that a big flaw had been exposed by his fierce move.

Bang!

An explosion resounded.

Yang Cheng’s attack finally landed on Ling Xiao, and bricks chaotically flew all around, blocking everyone’s sight.
