Ling Tian Sword God-Chapter 628 - 626: Capturing the Warship_1

Following Ling Chen, Duan Qingxu, Mo Shangke, and the others also broke through the clouds and landed on the deck.

"Capture the Puppet Warship and seize Linghu Yi," Ling Chen waved at Liu Feiyue and the others.

"Yes!"

Everyone cupped their fists, then moved out and dispersed.

The core of this Puppet Warship was likely the Power Cabin. As long as they controlled the Power Cabin, the Puppet Warship would be under their command.

"Linghu Yi, did you ever imagine you would see this day?" Ling Chen looked at Linghu Yi, who was being protected by a group of Black Market experts not far away, and spoke calmly.

Although there were still many Black Market experts on this Puppet Warship, and even over a dozen Top Sky Apex Strongs, all of them were pinned down by the Cyan Robe Association, completely unable to threaten Ling Chen.

Now, if Ling Chen wanted to kill Linghu Yi, it would be as easy as turning over his hand.

"Hmph. The victor becomes king, the loser is branded a villain. That's all there is to it." Linghu Yi gave a cold smirk. "Even if you kill me and control the entire Black Market, you will still be the ultimate loser."

"If I'm the loser, then who is the winner?" Ling Chen's eyes flickered slightly. "Could it be Shentu Yan?"

Hearing the name Shentu Yan, Linghu Yi was also taken aback. How did Ling Chen know they had defected to Shentu Yan? Only he and Black Chonghou were supposed to be aware of this matter.

"By the way, why didn't your master, Shentu Yan, come to rescue you?" Ling Chen was actually somewhat surprised himself that Shentu Yan hadn't appeared; it was rather unexpected. Or perhaps, the other party had complete confidence in Black Chonghou and felt no need to intervene personally.

"Hmph, Master Shentu naturally has important matters to attend to. Ling Chen, don't be so arrogant. Your success is only temporary. Don't worry, your good days won't last long!"

Having said that, Linghu Yi abruptly raised his palm and fiercely struck his own heart. Then, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his breath ceased, and he died.

He actually committed suicide. Ling Chen found himself looking at Linghu Yi in a new light. Originally, he had thought Linghu Yi was merely a fickle and petty person, but it seemed he was actually quite the formidable character.

However, Ling Chen felt no mercy; enemies should not be shown the slightest leniency!

WHOOSH!

Suddenly, his figure shot out and, in a flash, appeared before Linghu Yi. He sent all the surrounding Black Market experts flying, and then Ling Chen reached out, pressing his palm directly onto the crown of Linghu Yi's head.

A powerful devouring force was instantly released, beginning to continuously draw out Linghu Yi's True Qi.

As a peak practitioner of the Sky Apex Realm Third Layer, former Vice Sect Leader of the Cyan Robe Association, and Chief Rudder of the Black Market, Linghu Yi had undoubtedly practiced top-notch cultivation techniques. His cultivation base was profound, and his True Qi was pure.

Ling Chen certainly wouldn't let this opportunity pass.

"Sect Leader... is he absorbing Linghu Yi's cultivation?" Duan Qingxu and Mo Shangke looked at each other in dismay.

Absorbing another's cultivation for one's own use was undoubtedly an evil technique, somewhat characteristic of the Demon Way.

"Yes. Linghu Yi committed a capital crime, and he is already dead. Leaving his lifetime of cultivation unused would be a waste." Liu Feiyue remained impassive. "Moreover, this method, though it may seem evil, can be used for the Righteous Path if the user's heart is not corrupt."

"You're right. We were being shortsighted." Duan Qingxu nodded. They all knew what kind of person Ling Chen was; they merely felt the method itself was somewhat evil, not that they had any ill opinion of Ling Chen.

"Having absorbed Linghu Yi's cultivation, Junior Brother Ling Chen's Cultivation should advance to another level, right?" A sharp light flashed in Liu Feiyue's beautiful eyes.

Linghu Yi cultivated a royal-grade cultivation technique known as the Wolf Devil Explosive Body Formula. His True Qi was abundant and his physique powerful, far surpassing ordinary individuals. Undoubtedly, Ling Chen's strength would increase immensely after absorbing his cultivation.

At this moment, Linghu Yi's True Qi was continuously pouring into Ling Chen's meridians.

Linghu Yi's True Qi contained a chilling, cold attribute and was extremely violent. After entering Ling Chen's body, it rampaged wildly, crashing about.

However, since Linghu Yi himself was already dead, his True Qi naturally couldn't pose a threat to Ling Chen. While absorbing the True Qi, Ling Chen was also refining it.

The cultivation technique Ling Chen cultivated was a holy-grade technique, the Ling Tian Sword Scripture. His True Qi was of far higher quality than Linghu Yi's. This was the prerequisite for Ling Chen to be able to absorb Linghu Yi's cultivation.

Otherwise, if his True Qi were inferior, how could he absorb and refine another's True Qi? Even if absorbed into the body, it couldn't be refined in a short time. Not only would there be no benefit, but it could even cause a backlash.

After roughly the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Ling Chen had completely absorbed Linghu Yi's cultivation.

At the same time, Ling Chen's Cultivation also reached the critical point of the Great Master Seventh Realm.

He was just a hair's breadth away.

"Break through!"

A cold glint suddenly flashed in Ling Chen's eyes. Inside his body, an incomparably majestic True Qi surged violently, rushing towards the True Qi Essence Pill in his Dantian.

The majestic True Qi, like a tidal wave, washed over the True Qi Essence Pill again and again. Under this onslaught, the True Qi Essence Pill expanded once more, becoming even more condensed.

Its luster was clear and translucent, without a single trace of impurity, presenting a faint golden hue. It resembled a faint golden Ye Mingzhu, suspended within his Dantian.

Great Grandmaster Eighth Layer!

Feeling the surging True Qi within his body, a smile touched Ling Chen's lips.

He was undoubtedly another step closer to the Sky Apex Realm.

Of course, this was thanks to Linghu Yi's cultivation. Otherwise, at his normal cultivation speed, it would still have taken Ling Chen some time to reach the stage of a Grandmaster of the Eight-level Realm.

Now, by activating the second level of the Ancient Saint King Battle Technique, Ling Chen's strength would reach the Sky Apex Realm in a short time.

"Terrifying. He just advanced a minor stage, and I feel his strength has increased tremendously. Is it just my imagination?" Duan Qingxu said with a solemn expression.

"It's not your imagination. Every time an ordinary genius advances their Cultivation, it triggers an explosion of their potential, and their strength increases far more than that of an average person, let alone Junior Brother Ling Chen, who is a peerless genius rarely seen even once in a thousand years," Liu Feiyue said lightly.

"When he was only at the Great Master Seventh Realm, he could defeat Linghu Yi, who was at the Sky Apex Realm Third Layer. If he continues to cultivate like this, it's foreseeable that he will become the Martial Arts Supreme in the future," Mo Shangke exclaimed in admiration.

"Reporting to the Sect Leader, we have taken the Power Cabin. This Puppet Warship is now under our control," a masked Azure Guard knelt on one knee and reported to Ling Chen, cupping his fist.

"Very well." A playful smile appeared on Ling Chen's face. "Immediately activate the Fire Source Cannon. Let's give Black Chonghou a taste of his own weaponry."
