Painting of the Nine Immortals

Chapter 999: The End to a Legend

On the battle ring, Ling Xian’s gaze moved around like electricity. His black hair danced crazily in the wind and he acted like a real life immortal who peered down on all lives.

He moved around with his Disorder Conquering Fists and used all his weapons. He had hit Zhan Cang Sheng until he was white in the face with all his bones broken.

In the end, the Cauldron of Mountain and River emitted much light that turned the world upside down!

HOMMM!

The Cauldron dropped down, pinning Zhan Cang Sheng to the ground. The ground split open and the clouds dispersed!

Crack, crack!

A series of bone breaking noises arose that made Zhan Cang Sheng puke out blood and look even paler.

This scene shocked everyone!

All eyes were now on the proud silhouette and they all held looks of disbelief. Then, a series of gasps arose.

“He won. He defeated Zhan Cang Sheng!”

“Unbelievable! That is the legendary battle sage body. How was he defeated?”

“Far too powerful! He won even against the battle sage body. In the entire world, out of everyone here, who can say that?”

Everyone was in shock, shocked to a point of no return!

That was the immortal sage body, nicknamed to be the reincarnation of the God of Battle, one of the strongest physiques known!

Everyone knew how strong Zhan Cang Sheng was. He was so insanely strong that everyone else in his own generation were hopeless!

Therefore, under the circumstance that he was giving it his all and still ended up losing to Ling Xian, how unbelievable was this?

Just how powerfully capable did Ling Xian have to be to win against the battle sage body?

That is absolutely insane!

Everyone found this hard to believe and found it hard to accept this cruel truth. But reality was before them and nobody could dispute it!

“Insane, too insane!”

Someone quaked. Staring at the tall silhouette in the sky, there was bitterness and respect.

Everyone else reacted the same. The way they looked at Ling Xian was the same way they look at a monster. No, the strongest monster out of all monsters

Even though right now, Ling Xian was white in the face and was covered in blood, none of this made him look any less arrogant!

His opponent was Zhan Cang Sheng! The legendarily undefeatable battle sage body!

To have defeated him was already an unbelievable feat. How could he not be at all hurt?

Therefore, in everyone’s eyes, Ling Xian was not at all fatigued. Instead, he was showered by honor and glory. Like an undying Sun, his accomplishment had reflected off the land and brightened the world!

As for the other powerhouses, they were looking absolutely stunned. They couldn’t believe that the battle sage body would lose to Ling Xian.

“Is this necessary…”

Sensing everyone’s shock, Ling Xian chuckled to himself, thinking that if everyone else knew he had killed a demonic sage body before this, how surprised would they be?

That wouldn’t be hard to imagine. All nine sage bodies were insanely powerful and to become powerhouses was basically something that was already set in stone. The person who is a sage body is destined be a future ruler!

Of course, it wasn’t totally impossible for the world to see two sage bodies at the same time. It is just extremely rare.

But both sage bodies had lost to the same man. This wasn’t just setting a precedent, it was basically defying Heaven!

“Ahhhhh!”

Zhan Cang Sheng shouted into the sky angrily, his voice echoed on for three thousand miles. His voice was full of fury and full of humiliation.

He was the battle sage body and he had never lost a battle. He had a sturdy undefeatable mentality yet now, he had lost to Ling Xian. This was a huge humiliation and a huge blow to his ego!

But who’s to blame here? Ling Xian never wanted to get tangled up with him, but he pushed things too far. To have things end this way was self-inflicted!

“Break dammit!”

Zhan Cang Sheng’s black hair was tussling in the wind as he used all his strength to push against the Cauldron of Mountain and River. The Cauldron shook a little and cracks showed up on the surface.

However, Ling Xian landed and placed his foot on the Cauldron. The enemy’s struggles were neutralized.

Retch!

Another mouthful of blood made Zhan Cang Sheng’s face white and his eyes dimmed.

He could feel the shocking might from the Cauldron. This made him realize that there was no way he could get rid of the Cauldron of the Mountain and River.

In other words, he had lost completely.

This result has made him feel extremely humiliated and extremely bitter. His undefeatable mentality was crushed.

“Give up. You cannot escape.”

Ling Xian said calmly and stood with his hand behind his back. Like an immortal in the world of the mortal, he was extraordinary looking.

His calmness revealed much gentleness. It was hard to people to associate this side of him with the beast who just defeated Zhan Cang Sheng.

“Ehem, ehem, I have lost. I, Zhan Cang Sheng, somehow lost…” Zhan Cang Sheng lost the soul in his eyes. He was seemingly laughing and seemingly crying, and acted as if he had lost his soul.

It became apparently what a huge blow Ling Xian had caused him.

He was the prominent battle sage body and he had never lost. Yet today, he had been defeated by Ling Xian – after the fact that he had become an original level in the undefeatable realm.

To be at such a height and experience failure like never before impacted him greatly.

It wouldn’t be hard to say that most people would react the way he was reacting – soulless.

“I told you you wouldn’t be able to do it.”

Ling Xian glared at this person, “The winner has been established. You should have a conclusion regarding which one of us deserves the right to possess the battle immortal bone.”

Hearing this, Zhan Cang Sheng felt bitter and even more humiliated.

The battle immortal bone was uniquely his and only he can awaken it. Yet it appeared on Ling Xian’s body. This was a huge joke.

However, he had lost. There was nothing he could do to argue against that. This was another huge humiliation!

“Aye, oh well. I have nothing to say about losing to you.”

Zhan Cang Sheng sighed a long sigh, it was as if he had aged by a few decades, “But remember, the one you defeated is Zhan Cang Sheng, not the battle sage body!”

“Sadly, you from this generation represents the battle sage body. Today, you lost to me, which indicates the legend of the battle sage body ends today!”

Ling Xian spoke softly. He knew what Zhan Cang Sheng wanted. He wanted to say that it was he himself who is not strong enough, not the battle sage body.

But facts are facts, the battle sage body from this generation had utterly lost, lost to him!

“You!”

Zhan Cang Sheng was offended but had no strength to argue. Then he said bitterly, “From this moment on, you will be the only one with the battle immortal bone.”

“That’s right.” Ling Xian grinned, feeling happy.

The meaning of this battle was a deep one. Not only did this mean he was entering into the top eight, it also meant he was now the sole owner of the battle immortal bone!

“You won. You won fair and square, and completely.”

Zhan Cang Sheng closed his eyes while in agony and he mumbled, “And I will go on my way with all my regrets and unwillingness.”

Then, he imploded. After a loud BANG, he turned into a fog of blood and his soul dissipated.

Ling Xian’s eyes flashed with surprise. He didn’t think Zhan Cang Sheng would end himself, “He sure is a man. Sadly, he was far too presumptuous. If you weren’t so pushy, this never would’ve happened to you.”

Then, he formed a hand seal to use the Blood Dissolving Technique.

At once, all the bloody fog in the air combined into a red drop of blood that was emitting with terror!

It was the blood source of the battle sage body!
