Chapter 304: This Life's Tribulation!

BOOM! The Lion Duke let loose a powerful strike. However, the portal disappeared as soon as Ling Chen stepped into it, leaving an empty void as if he'd never been there at all.

"Is this the power of an Exiled Sword Immortal?" the Lion Duke mused, furrowing his brows. He scanned around but found no trace of Ling Chen. "A sword slicing through the void, disappearing in a blinktruly a defiance of the heavens! No wonder the Ku Family went mad over him...

"Damn it! How annoying! Let's just slaughter these two women first. Without their protection, that kid will only run away and meet his end eventually!" The Lion Duke stopped pursuing and turned to attack Feng Xuxu and Ku Qinglian, only to find the two women had burst out in crazed laughter.

"Exile Ling is safe and sound!"

"Gongyang Sheng, Lion Duke, your impulsive actions have committed the most foolish sin in this world! Offending him, just wait and see!"

"Don't you think of stopping now! In less than a month, Exile Ling will bring your Calamity Seal Purgatory and Endless Netherworld to true and utter ruin!"

Their cold laughter gave them a psychological edge.

Indeed, both the Lion Duke and Gongyang Sheng wore a trace of fear on their faces. Ling Chen's heaven-defying act had truly frightened them. The two exchanged glances.

Gongyang Sheng asked, "Do we still kill them?"

"Nonsense, if you were Ling Chen, would you spare us now?" the Lion Duke retorted coldly.

"Never!" Gongyang Sheng clenched his teeth.

"There's no way out for the other eight hells. Without the death of the Exiled Sword Immortals, the world will be in chaos! Those who support them must die!"

This sentence from the Lion Duke was a death sentence for Ku Qinglian and her companion.

"Hehe..."

However, they seemed to have hope and reliance, still sneering even in the face of a battle to the death.

"I see you're afraid!"

"You'll all suffer greatly!"

Enraged, the Lion Duke bellowed, "Pull out their tongues first! These wretched women!" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝘯𝘰𝘷ℯ𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Off elsewhere, Qin Cheng and Sun Yuanhai were making a run for it.

"Why are there so many demons appearing?" Qin Cheng frowned deeply. Where they were, amidst high mountains and deep ravines, countless demons were crawling out, moving in the opposite direction to them.

"Forget about them!" Sun Yuanhai looked back and saw the cave behind them shaking violently. The air was filled with roaring spells, whistling sword lights, and intermittent screams.

Biting his teeth, Sun Yuanhai said, "We're surrounded! They're doomed, especially Xuxu and Qinglian. Aren't we going to save them? There's still that old saying a couple for a day is a bond for a lifetime..."

Qin Cheng, his anger boiling, shot back, "What bond? Have you forgotten what she just told you? A thousand times with you isn't worth one time with Exile Ling! Do you have any dignity left as a man?"

Sun Yuanhai's face reddened as he tried to explain, "It's not like that... I'm just worried that if they don't die, they'll return to the Sword Ruins and condemn us as deserters."

"Then let's hope they die!" Qin Cheng snapped.

"Alas... We were husband and wife, had children together. We might not have had much status, but we got used to this life... Why did they have to push us to this extent!" Recalling the past few decades, Sun Yuanhai felt even more heartbroken.

"Let's go, brother." Qin Cheng patted his shoulder.

The two didn't look back again, their hearts filled with smoldering anger as they walked further and further away.

Suddenly, a circular portal appeared in the space ahead, causing a disturbance.

"What's this?" Sun Yuanhai exclaimed in surprise.

"I don't know."

They stopped and looked up. After just a couple of breaths, the vortex shook, and a young man in a dark violet robe fell out of it.

THUD! He hit the ground hard!

"I've been reborn, but I'm still too weak! My first time traversing the void, and I barely made it three kilometers." The young man struggled to his feet, checking his body and feeling unsatisfied said, "One traversal, and most of my sacred power is depleted..."

He couldn't bear being so feeble. Though he had risen by consuming a great deal of resources from the Sword Ruins, his current progress was far from satisfying. He hadn't even unearthed a minuscule fraction of his abilities from his previous life!

"If it weren't for that roadblock above my head, stealing everything that was rightfully mine, why would I have fallen to such a wretched state today?"

Thinking this, Ling Chen's hatred for that white-robed youth grew wildly! Once, there was gratitude for a life saved, but now, only the grudge of obstruction remained.

"The fortune of heaven and earth is limited. If he becomes the chosen one of fate, my chance at rebirth will vanish! It seems he is the tribulation of my life. Without breaking this tribulation, my path to regaining the pinnacle is impossible!" The youth in the dark violet robe's face twisted with malice, a surge of anger flooding his heart.

"Exile Ling?" Suddenly, two voices came from behind.

Ling Chen turned abruptly, surprised to see the astonished Qin Cheng and Sun Yuanhai.

"It's you two?" He swept a cold glance at them.

"Exile Ling, did you just traverse the void with your physical body?" Qin Cheng asked, stunned.

"A minor trick," Ling Chen looked down upon these two weaklings, speaking indifferently, "Inscription Cultivators and devils working together led to some mishaps. I came out first to continue searching for the core of the Heavenly Land. Since you've escaped, follow me and serve as my assistants."

Qin Cheng and Sun Yuanhai exchanged glances and quickly nodded. "Yes!"

They were extremely respectful! But the moment they lowered their heads, they exchanged a covert glance, their eyes brimming with furious resentment!

"He's very weak!"

"He's pretending!"

From Ling Chen's pale face, they could tell! Even at this moment, this so-called Exiled Sword Immortal was still bossing them around! The scene in the cave earlier surged back into their minds! The two women, caught in their disgrace, had turned the blame around on them! How could they bear it? Up to this moment, their hearts were cut to pieces.

"Heaven has delivered this beast right into our hands..."

Years of shared misery had forged their unspoken understanding.

"Kill!!"

Frustration and anger, like boiling water, surged to their brains!

The two middle-aged Sword Cultivators, at the Perfect Fate Ocean Realm, while bowing in feigned respect, suddenly erupted in an attack, their swords aiming for Ling Chen right before them!

"Hmm?" Ling Chen's face changed drastically. "You dare challenge the heavens..."

In a rush, he swept his sword across the void! Space twisted before him as his nine-colored Sword Soul collided with Qin Cheng's sword, erupting in a thunderous blast!

Even if Ling Chen's swordsmanship was only a minuscule fraction of what it was in his past life, it was still more exquisite than Qin Cheng's. But... his sacred power truly paled in comparison to Qin Cheng's! Such a close-range, full-force attack from someone in the Perfect Fate Ocean Realm was difficult to block, not just for Ling Chen, but even for Yun Xiao!

KLANG! Qin Cheng's sword plunged into the spatial vortex, still grazing the nine-colored Sword Soul, piercing Ling Chen's palm and spilling blood! He vividly remembered, it was this very hand that had roamed over Ku Qinglian's body!

"I'll destroy your vile hand!" Qin Cheng violently twisted his sword, and in a flash, his Sword Soul sliced through Ling Chen's palm, sending five fingers flying!

"AGHHHH!" Ling Chen screamed in agony, his face turning ashen.

He never dreamed that he, the reincarnation of the mighty Divine Sky Sword Emperor, would be reduced to such a statehis right hand's fingers severed by a pathetic man in a fit of rage!

How was he to wield a sword now?

In the next instant, Sun Yuanhai's sword thrust towards his Dantian!

Clearly, this was an attempt to cripple Ling Chen completely!

In agonized screams, dripping with sweat, Ling Chen recoiled, warping the space in front of him to suppress Sun Yuanhai's sword!

"Die!" Sun Yuanhai roared furiously, never in his life had he been so valiant!

SPUTTER! His sword, though missing Ling Chen's Dantian, pierced through that symbol of sin, going right through Ling Chen's backside.

Astonishingly, an egg-shaped object hung on the Sword Soul!

"GAHHHHHHH!" Ling Chen's face turned purple in an instant, letting out a heart-wrenching scream!

"You dare toy with my woman? This is karma, understand?!" Sun Yuanhai sneered, decades of pent-up resentment erupting. freeweb novel.com

Seeing Ling Chen's shocked and agonized expression, he and Qin Cheng finally felt a tingling thrill of satisfaction!

With this sword strike, even if it meant death, it would be worth it!

Who could walk by the river and not get their feet wet?

In his past life, Ling Chen coveted his brother's partner, and in this life, he hadn't learned his lesson. Even the most spineless man couldn't tolerate such humiliation!

Sadly, Ling Chen never really saw these insignificant men as worthy of attention. He outwardly respected all his elders, but his heart was filled with contempt. These two middle-aged men, having lost everything, used their swords at this moment to teach Ling Chen a lesson!

The excruciating pain in his palm and lower body finally woke Ling Chen from his dreamlike state!

This agony reminded him that he was no longer the Divine Sky Sword Emperor, just a mortal with great talent. No matter how many life-saving tricks he had, overlooking the boundaries of human nature would inevitably lead to his downfall one day!

CRASH! He rolled onto the ground, his eyes wide, shrinking into a purple shrimp!

The mighty Divine Sky Sword Emperor of his previous life, now castrated, a fate more tragic than before! What was hardest to accept was that this was just a world that seemed as insignificant as dust to him...

"Die!"

"Go to hell, Exiled Sword Immortal! You're why everyone's gone mad!"

"You deserve death the most!"

Qin Cheng and Sun Yuanhai, like crazed demons, attacked again, this time aiming for Ling Chen's heart and head!

And Ling Chen, amidst the intense pain, his bloodshot eyes still trembling, said, "This mortal world is more perilous than I imagined..."

To be suppressed by a freak was one thing! Even two pathetic fools managed to defeat him! This made him question his entire existence!

Still, Ling Chen was, after all, the reincarnation of a true Immortal. Amidst this pain, he managed to calm his mind. "I have no choice but to use the trump card I reserved for Yun Xiao to save my life, sigh..."

He was so frustrated he felt like spitting blood!

As the twin swords approached, Ling Chen suddenly produced a white bone mirrorthe Heavenly Mirror he'd prepared for a lethal strike against Yun Xiao!

The moment the Heavenly Mirror appeared, Ling Chen roared, activating its power!

BOOM! The mirror erupted in a blazing light, instantly vaporizing Qin Cheng and Sun Yuanhai into dust.

The next instant, the Heavenly Mirror itself exploded, turning into ashes and forever becoming part of the history of the Nine Hells!

After releasing this strike, Ling Chen's face turned even paler! He lay back on the wild ground, his eyes in disarray.

"Why is this mortal world so difficult?"

It all came back to Yun Xiao. Without him, Ling Chen should have been unmatched All his fury still focused on Yun Xiao! Looking at his fingerless right hand, his hatred deepened.

Touching his lower body with his left hand, he grimaced in pain and muttered in frustration, "Well shit from now until I become an Immortal and regain the ability to regenerate flesh and blood, I must live a life of purity..."

He struggled to his feet, looking towards the cave where the battle seemed to be ending. This meant the Inscription Cultivators and devils must have won! And he had lost miserably!

"Huh?" Ling Chen suddenly noticed, across the dark expanse of land, countless demons like a dark cloud were moving towards the cave.

Many were even around him! These demons turned their heads, looking at him with strange eyes.

"Neutered!" A little fox ran past him, playfully insulting him.

"..." Ling Chen's face instantly darkened.
