Chapter 1464 - 1501: Defeated
At this moment, everyone watching was shocked, clearly not expecting the Nascent Soul Mid Stage Elder to be beaten so badly by that girl. This was simply unbelievable!
It should be known that the Elder was a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator. Some cultivators around had already noticed that the Elder's cultivation was at the peak of Nascent Soul Late Stage. Under the Divine Stage, there were few who could match him, yet he was defeated to such a degree by that youth, it's simply unbelievable!
"That youth's swordsmanship is truly bizarre, so unpredictable. The Elder must have suffered from his swordsmanship!"
"Have you got it wrong? No matter how powerful the youth's swordsmanship is, he shouldn't be able to overpower a Nascent Soul Late Stage Elder! The Elder's strength is at the peak of Nascent Soul Late Stage!"
"Indeed, there's hardly anyone who can deal with peak Nascent Soul Late Stage strength!"
"But that youth doesn't appear weak either. Although it's unclear what his cultivation is, clearly even if there's some difference from the Elder, it wouldn't be too large!"
"It's unimaginable that someone so young has such strength. It's simply unbelievable!"
"I wonder what's the background of that youth; he's so formidable!"
"No matter what his background is, he's offended the Tong Family, and it's absolutely impossible to resolve peacefully! And look at that girl beside Tong Xie and the Elder behind her; they're definitely not ordinary individuals!"
"That's right! That girl is the daughter of the Wuji Sect's master, clearly not ordinary. It's said that Lan City's City Lord Mansion specifically invited them! Plus Tong Xie, invited by Lan City's City Lord Mansion as well. The youth has offended them in Lan City; he surely won't have a good outcome."
"Oh, the daughter of the Wuji Sect's master, that's an extraordinary status! They're from a Great Gate Sect!"
"I suspect the Elder behind the black-clad girl has likely reached the Divine Stage! Not an ordinary presence..."
"The youth and his companions likely won't have a smooth day today..."
"Are you thinking too far ahead? Do you really think the youth can beat the Elder? Clearly impossible..."
"The Elder just hasn't taken it seriously yet..."
...
For a moment, people whispered among themselves, clearly doubting Ding Fan and his companions. After all, Tong Xie was the Young Master of the Tong Family, the daughter of the Wuji Sect's master, both with powerful backgrounds. Plus, there's potentially a Divine Stage Elder aiding them, how could Ding Fan and the others fare well?
Amongst Ding Fan and his companions, even though the youth fighting the Elder seemed to have the upper hand temporarily, he was likely the most powerful among them. The others, be it young or old, appeared to be merely Nascent Soul Stage cultivators. Furthermore, the elder with them looked profound but his cultivation wasn't visible, clearly just an ordinary elder.
Such a group, how could they be opponents of the Tong Family or Wuji Sect? If they wish for your death, you simply have no way to survive...
Thus, everyone was clearly pessimistic about Ding Fan and his companions. But upon looking at Long Ren, the youth seemed completely indifferent, as if nothing happened, leaving people feeling strange. Could it be that he's already indifferent to life and death, truly a pity at such a young age...
At this moment, Ding Fan looked at the Elder opposite him, a coldness like death appearing in his eyes. He then aggressively swung his flying sword, directly slashing at the opponent. Right now, Ding Fan no longer wished to tangle with the opponent, and he had already understood the opponent's depth quite clearly.
Moreover, Ding Fan had great confidence in his "Wind-like Sword Technique." Although the Elder's swordsmanship was formidable, Ding Fan knew it couldn't compare to his own "Wind-like Sword Technique."
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Ding Fan fully utilized his movement technique, suddenly charging at the opponent. At the same time, his flying sword danced up and down, creating a dazzling spectacle. Despite this, the Elder, while amazed internally, continued to defend against Ding Fan's swordsmanship.
Clang, clang, clang...
A series of clashing sounds from longswords reverberated, the battle between Ding Fan and the Elder was intense. For a moment, even the inn's walls bore traces of Ding Fan's sword blade, not directly from his flying sword, but from the Sword Qi.
Suddenly, Ding Fan put away his flying sword, seizing the Elder's defensive gap. His hand formed a half-grip, two fingers pointing directly at the Elder!
The Elder was startled seeing this, not expecting a flaw in his defense. Yet, he was shocked that Ding Fan didn't attack with his sword; instead, he put away the flying sword, merely pointing at him with a single hand.
Could the opponent be letting him strike once?
The elder couldn't help but find it amusing. He hadn't expected the other party, having such a good opportunity, would want to let his own sword strike. Indeed, the other party was still too green! Such a young lad actually wanted to kill him; it was utterly ridiculous. Immediately, the elder held the sword with his left hand and channeled all his energy into his right hand, grabbing towards Ding Fan's arm. Since the other party wanted to let him strike, he couldn't blame him for being ruthless. He would capture him and disable one of his arms; let's see what else he could do then!
The elder originally felt unfortunate due to his defensive flaws, but he hadn't expected the opponent would make such a novice mistake out of mercy during the fight. The elder couldn't help but feel as if the moment he would turn defeat into victory was within reach.
Pfft!
But just as the elder was feeling pleased in his heart, his hand reaching for Ding Fan was suddenly pierced through by Ding Fan's flying sword, directly targeting the vital spot of the elder's heart.
"Not good!"
A pang of heart-wrenching pain made the elder suffer immensely. Evidently, he hadn't anticipated the flying sword, previously behind the opponent, would suddenly vanish and appear in front of him. The elder was utterly shocked, unable to believe this fact!
This was simply too bizarre! The sword was originally just behind the opponent, how could it suddenly appear in front of him? It was simply too incredible! At this life-and-death moment, the elder had no time to regret, clearly realizing the opponent was not merciful, but instead, this was his ultimate move, aiming to kill!
The elder watched as Ding Fan's flying sword was about to stab into his heart's vital spot. He knew there was no time to dodge; this attack was inescapable, and a mortal threat. In this fleeting moment, there was no time for him to consider anything else.
Immediately, the elder used his hand, which had been pierced through by Ding Fan, to forcibly pull, causing the flying sword to deviate slightly. Subsequently, it stabbed heavily into the opponent's chest position, causing the elder to spew out a mouthful of blood continuously.
Pfft...
At this moment, the elder wore a look of pained expression, gritting his teeth as he forcefully pulled out Ding Fan's flying sword. Seeing this, Ding Fan felt a sense of satisfaction, then threw a punch at the opponent, even including bursts of dragon roars in his punch.
The elder was directly hit by Ding Fan's punch, losing his balance and rolling over to where Tong Xie and others were.
...
At this moment, everyone was stunned at this scene, not expecting that the young man could actually defeat the late-stage Nascent Soul elder, almost killing him. It was simply incredible!
One must know that was a late-stage Nascent Soul elder, yet he was defeated by such a young teenager. It was utterly exaggerated!
And what on earth was the swordplay the young man performed earlier? Clearly, the young man did not have a flying sword in his hand; it was carried on his back by Ding Fan. How did it suddenly appear in Ding Fan's hand? It was simply unimaginable...
At this moment, Tong Xie, seeing this scene with the elder, couldn't help but widen his eyes, unable to believe it, as it was too strange. In the end, he thought that the elder could actually be defeated by the opponent, how was this possible? One must know the elder was a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, yet that waste looked like he wasn't even in the Nascent Soul Stage, so how could he possibly defeat the elder?
Even though Tong Xie found it hard to accept, the fact had already happened, and he couldn't help but look at Ding Fan with disbelief.
Even a hint of fear appeared in Tong Xie's eyes. Evidently, even if Tong Xie looked down upon the opponent, Ding Fan clearly not only severed his arms but also defeated the late-stage Nascent Soul elder. At this moment, Tong Xie couldn't help but look at the elder on the ground. At this moment, the elder's breath was weak, and even if he wasn't dead, he wouldn't have any combat ability left.
At this moment, the elder was filled with shock and regret, clearly not expecting the young man to be so powerful. Right now, the elder was very sure that the opponent's cultivation was definitely not as simple as it seemed, evidently likely also an Emergence Stage cultivator.
The opponent's True Qi power was even more robust than his own, and the opponent's swordsmanship was too bizarre. Now the elder finally understood: it wasn't just himself as a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator who couldn't defend against it, but even an elder as a Divided Spirit Stage cultivator would find it hard to guard against such a strange sword.
The elder, filled with a painful expression, struggled to sit up, finding it even difficult just to stand. He weakly said to Tong Xie:
"Young Master, the opponent is not simple. Please be cautious."
...
At this moment, Chai Er and others witnessing this scene with Ding Fan were already astounded, not expecting Ding Lin to really defeat the late-stage Nascent Soul elder. It was somewhat too unimaginable! One must know that was a late-stage Nascent Soul elder, and Chai Er and Wu Qianwen were utterly shocked for a moment.
They had seen Ding Fan defeat a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator back when they were at the Wu Family, and they were already greatly shocked at that time. But who would've thought that Ding Fan could even defeat a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator now? It was utterly unimaginable! What kind of cultivation did Ding Lin have? One must know that the only ones who could slay a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator were Divided Spirit Stage cultivators.
Could Ding Lin be a Divided Spirit Stage cultivator? Clearly, they couldn't dare imagine Ding Lin being a Divided Spirit Stage cultivator!
One must know that Divided Spirit Stage cultivators were not ordinary existences; they were incredibly powerful beings!
