Top-tier Unruly Master

Chapter 1465 1502: Unscathed

At this moment, Chai Er saw Ding Fan's action and was quite shocked. She completely hadn't anticipated that Ding Lin would actually defeat that Nascent Soul Late Stage elder, and almost even kill him. For a moment, Chai Er was very shocked and couldn't figure out what level Ding Fan's cultivation truly was.

Could it possibly be Spirit Severing Stage cultivation? But where would there be Spirit Severing Stage cultivators as young as Ding Fan? It's simply unimaginable. Yet, if Ding Fan isn't at Spirit Severing Stage, how could he possibly defeat a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator, especially such an elder?

The only ones who can defeat an elder of this cultivation level would be Spirit Severing Stage cultivators; no other cultivators could achieve this.

But regardless, Chai Er watched as Ding Fan forced the Nascent Soul Late Stage elder back, at least ensuring Ding Fan's safety. Chai Er's anxiety about Ding Fan could finally be relieved, and she quickly hurried to Ding Fan's side, her concerned gaze checking Ding Fan's body.

It's important to know that Ding Lin faced a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator, not an ordinary cultivator. Even though Ding Fan defeated the opponent, and nearly killed him, it wouldn't have been easy, and he must have sustained some injuries. Previously, Ding Fan and that elder had been exchanging blows with sword and sword, evidently leaving Chai Er unable to discern Ding Fan's physical condition.

When Chai Er reached Ding Fan's side and saw his body, she couldn't help but be incredibly shocked, for not even a corner of his clothing was damaged, truly unbelievable!

"Big Brother Ding Lin, you're not hurt at all?"

Chai Er gaped, wearing an expression of amazement as she spoke to Ding Fan.

"Isn't that good?"

Hearing her words, Ding Fan couldn't help but feel a bit helpless; he clearly understood Chai Er's astonishment. He looked at Chai Er with an odd expression and retorted.

"No, no, it's just too unbelievable..." Chai Er stammered after hearing Ding Fan's words. Her heart was incredibly shocked; not only did Big Brother Ding Lin defeat the Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator, he emerged without a single scratch and appeared completely at ease, leaving Chai Er with the impression that...

Defeating that Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator seemed not a difficult task for Big Brother Ding Lin, but quite a relaxing one.

Wu Qianwen, unknowingly, had moved to Chai Er's side and overheard the dialogue between Ding Fan and Chai Er. Her heart, too, was filled with shock, not expecting that Ding Fan managed to kill a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator seemingly effortlessly.

In that moment, Wu Qianwen felt an emotion towards Ding Fan beyond gratitude; she really hadn't imagined that Ding Fan could so effortlessly defeat a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator. It was just too incredible! Could Ding Fan indeed be a Spirit Severing Stage cultivator?

Wu Qianwen apparently knew what an awe-inspiring presence a Spirit Severing Stage cultivator was in the Cultivation World!

"Thank you, Ding Fan."

Wu Qianwen approached Ding Fan, her eyes filled with sincerity as she spoke; she understood that if Ding Lin hadn't saved her in time, she would have likely died at the hands of the disgraceful Tong Xie.

"It's nothing much; since Wu Zun and I are friends, taking care of you is only natural," Ding Fan replied calmly. He understood that Wu Qianwen was someone who admired power, and though he saved her several times, he wouldn't always be around. Thus, Ding Fan hoped she would learn from these experiences, or she would suffer losses later on; there might not be someone like him nearby then.

Even though Ding Fan wished she would learn from these experiences, he didn't convey this; after all, she was an adult with her own decisions, and he had no right to interfere.

...

At this moment, the crowd witnessing the Nascent Soul Late Stage elder were deeply shocked, unable to fathom that the young man could actually defeat such a cultivator. The fact that a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator was beaten by a youth, almost killed, was truly astounding...

Clearly, the instant Ding Fan defeated the Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator, many of the crowd were left speechless, unable to believe the scene. It was just too astounding!

"That kid is unbelievable! He defeated a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator! Could that youth possibly be a Spirit Severing Stage cultivator?"

"And the youth doesn't even have a single injury—it's too unbelievable!"

"Today was truly eye-opening; I never expected the Tong Family to be defeated, and so badly, too—it's just too unimaginable!"

"That kid must've thoroughly offended the Tong Family this time; you know, the Tong Family is quite powerful! And there's that girl in black; she's the Wuji Sect's daughter, and it's clear she sides with Tong Xie."

"That kid's in deep trouble now..."

"Sigh... Those who've offended the Tong Family haven't had good outcomes..."

"What a pity! The youth, so young, possesses such formidable strength, it's unfortunate he offended the Tong Family!"

...

After their initial astonishment at Ding Fan's skill, the crowd couldn't help but feel very sorry for Ding Fan, and their expressions were evidently filled with concern for Ding Fan's upcoming fate...

At this moment, Long Ren witnessed that previous strike from Ding Fan and couldn't help but have a gleam flash in his eyes, evidently quite astounded. Clearly, he had not anticipated Big Brother Ding Fan's swordsmanship to be so formidable; even he might not be able to defend against such a strike.

The elder beside Long Ren also glanced at Ding Fan's strike, and his expression slightly shifted, evidently not expecting Ding Fan's strike to be so powerful. Forget about the Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator, even he might suffer a significant loss if faced with such a strike!

This moment, the elder somewhat understood why Young Master Long wanted to befriend Ding Fan. Clearly, he was not an ordinary character. Although Young Master Long was incredibly remarkable, the elder knew that Young Master Long was unmatched by ordinary people, and his cultivation resources were incomparable to regular cultivators' resources.

Yet Ding Fan was merely a leftover disciple of the Dayang Sect. His age appeared to be similar to Young Master Long's, yet his strength had already reached this level, which was no small feat. Importantly, Ding Fan was also a Grade Nine Alchemist, which was even more astonishing!

It's possible that Ding Fan might be even stronger than Young Master Long!

At this moment, the elder understood why Young Master Long would swear brotherhood with Ding Fan. Clearly, Ding Fan was not an ordinary person; even now if he appears ordinary, he will surely not remain ordinary in the future. After all, he is already a Grade Nine Alchemist at such a young age!

This is unprecedented and unrivaled!

Now, the elder feels that Young Master Long swore brotherhood with Ding Fan not just to make connections, but very likely because Young Master Long shares a deep respect for him. In this Cultivation World, there are indeed too few cultivators who can stand alongside Young Master Long; Ding Fan can truly be considered a worthy character.

"Big Brother is awe-inspiring!"

At this moment, Long Ren approached Ding Fan with a joyful expression, sincerely praising Big Brother Ding Fan.

Ding Fan heard Long Ren's words and couldn't help but smile, saying nothing. Clearly, defeating that Nascent Soul Late Stage elder was not something that seemed worth mentioning to him. Even a cultivator at the Spirit Severing Initial Stage likely wouldn't be his match now.

However, Ding Fan was quite satisfied with the battle against the Nascent Soul Late Stage elder. Clearly, he gained a deeper understanding from the fight.

Take Ding Fan's use of the "Wind-like Sword Technique," for example; clearly, he had gleaned much insight and had become more adept with the swordsmanship. If Ding Fan were to unleash the sword techniques in the Fourth Chapter of the "Wind-like Sword Technique," he could evidently perform a thousand varied techniques.

Ding Fan knows that doing so would evidently catch the opponent by surprise and significantly amplify the damage.

From the battle with the Nascent Soul Late Stage elder, Ding Fan gained quite a bit, although the opponent was simply a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Late Stage, and evidently posed no real challenge to Ding Fan.

At this moment, Tong Xie, looking quite pained, saw the elder's rather uncomfortable expression, and his heart was both shocked and furious. Evidently, he hadn't expected Ding Fan to defeat even the Nascent Soul Late Stage elder; it was simply too incredible! But Tong Xie had a malicious look on his face.

Clearly, he wouldn't let this slide, and at this moment, Tong Xie looked at the black-clad young girl, Linger, beside him, then he spoke with some pleading:

"Linger, you must avenge me!"

The girl heard Tong Xie's words and couldn't help but nod, saying:

"Don't worry Tong Xie, I will avenge you! After all, this is Lan City; acting recklessly here won't end well for him!"

The black-clad girl witnessing Ding Fan's defeat of the Nascent Soul Late Stage elder was extremely surprised. Clearly, she hadn't anticipated that young man's prowess to be so formidable. However, offending these people, no matter how powerful he is, would be of no use. No matter how strong he is, can he defeat a family or a sect?

Clearly, it's impossible. Next, the black-clad girl finished speaking, and her gaze fell upon the elder behind her. Evidently, the girl's cultivation wasn't strong; she also understood she wasn't a match for Ding Fan, but it didn't matter.

Know that the elder behind her was a Spirit Severing cultivator; evidently, no problem is too big for a Spirit Severing elder to handle. At this moment, the elder saw the girl's gaze and couldn't help but nod, then the elder seemed highly interested in walking towards Ding Fan.

Evidently, the elder had also witnessed Ding Fan's previous defeat of the Nascent Soul Late Stage elder, and Ding Fan's strike was very elusive to him. Evidently, it wasn't something an ordinary cultivator could overcome. He wanted to test Ding Fan's longsword.

As the elder walked towards Ding Fan, Chai Er and others couldn't help but feel a surge of tension. Evidently, this elder was even mightier than the previous elder, and he was already a Spirit Severing cultivator. Chai Er knew that even though Ding Fan was very powerful, he would be helpless facing a Spirit Severing cultivator.

After all, a Spirit Severing cultivator is clearly not someone an ordinary cultivator can deal with.
