Divine King of Honour-Chapter 1398: Life-and-Death Challenge

Chapter 1398: Chapter 1398: Life-and-Death Challenge
Taigu Fierce Wolf is a Wind Attribute Law fierce beast.
This type of beast is extremely brutal and bloodthirsty, with incredible speed.
It is especially skilled in deploying Wind Blades.
A Taigu Fierce Wolf at the Luoxian Realm level is undoubtedly a nightmare of the same level.
And now, there are actually five hundred of them.
To kill all these Taigu Fierce Wolves, one must have an extraordinary understanding of the laws.
"This is just the first level, no wonder Senior Sister Lin said that even beyond the ninth level of the Supreme Tower, no one can set foot upon. Even an Immortal Emperor would find it nearly impossible to complete such a challenge," Xu Nian mused to himself.
However, there was no time for him to think now.
Because those five hundred Taigu Fierce Wolves had already discovered Xu Nian, with fierce glint erupting in their eyes.
"Buzz!"
With a thought, a sharp sword appeared in Xu Nian’s hand.
This was merely an ordinary Low Grade Immortal Sword.
According to the rules of the Supreme Tower, all weapons can be condensed through consciousness, but the grade is only low-grade Immortal Artifact level.
So relying on weapons is also impossible.
"Roar!"
The Taigu Fierce Wolves issued roaring sounds.
Then they rapidly charged toward Xu Nian.
Their speed was so fast, like fleeting shadows.
Xu Nian held the sharp sword, yet there wasn’t the slightest panic in his eyes.
"Let’s test the results of my recent insights."
"Thousand Blade Kill!"
The sharp sword in Xu Nian’s hand trembled.
Then, he stabbed a sword toward a rapidly charging Taigu Fierce Wolf.
"Buzz!"
The power of law erupted instantly.
One sword pierced like thousands of swords, surging from all directions.
"Puchi!"
The Taigu Fierce Wolf was instantly pierced into a sieve, dead on the spot.
"Thousand Blade Slash!"
Xu Nian immediately followed with another sword slash.
At the instant the sword was slashed, the three Taigu Fierce Wolves in front seemed to be locked by an invisible force.
They had nowhere to dodge.
The next moment, extreme sharpness surged from all directions.
The three Taigu Fierce Wolves were directly sliced into pieces.
Just like that, Xu Nian successively struck out with his sword.
Stabbing, slashing, hooking, flicking!
Every move contained the force of the Extreme Point Principle.
His control over force was no longer limited to stabs and slashes.
Yet despite this, Xu Nian was still being desperately chased by the five hundred Taigu Fierce Wolves.
"This body not only has low cultivation, but the quality of Immortal Essence is far inferior to my original body, even the body’s strength is lacking greatly."
Xu Nian mused to himself.
After consecutively killing three hundred, Xu Nian already felt that the Immortal Essence within his body was nearly exhausted.
To deploy the Extreme Point Law requires consuming a large amount of Immortal Essence.
If it were Xu Nian’s original body deploying it, not only would the power be several times greater than now, but the number of times it could be deployed would also be much more.
"It seems my control over force is not yet perfect. If it were perfect, it shouldn’t be so tiring."
Xu Nian dodged while swinging the sharp sword in his hand.
At this moment, his sword-striking frequency had significantly decreased.
His body had suffered large claw marks from the Taigu Fierce Wolves at many places.
Some marks were deep, some shallow, with some so deep that bone could be seen.
This pain and injury felt no different from Xu Nian’s own body.
So Xu Nian could be said to be fighting while enduring the pain.
"Hmph, I don’t believe they can do it, but I can’t."
Xu Nian gritted his teeth, swinging the sharp sword in his hand to continue battling with the remaining Taigu Fierce Wolves.
"Kill!"
Xu Nian deployed the Extreme Point Penetration Law and began a crazy slaughter again.
This time he was even more frenzied.
With each swing of the sword, six or seven Taigu Fierce Wolves were slain.
Finally, right before exhausting his strength, Xu Nian had slain all the five hundred Taigu Fierce Wolves.
And he was also severely injured, with a huge bloody hole in his chest.
This was from a sneak attack by a Taigu Fierce Wolf, with the claws piercing through his chest, nearly ripping him apart.
"Buzz!"
The world spun.
When Xu Nian woke up again, he found that his soul had returned to his original body.
"I’m back, does this mean I passed the trial?" Xu Nian took out his Token.
However, the Token displayed the result: Trial Failed.
"Huh?"
Xu Nian was a bit confused.
He immediately probed the information on the Token.
It showed that Xu Nian had slain five hundred Taigu Fierce Wolves, taking one and a quarter two hours.
But the requirement of the Trial Tower was to complete it within two hours.
In other words, Xu Nian exceeded the time by a quarter-hour, thus leading to trial failure.
"This Supreme Tower’s trial is indeed exceptionally difficult, but failing means I have room for improvement," Xu Nian mused to himself.
However, thinking that Xue Bing could persist for two hours on the second floor, Xu Nian felt Xue Bing was extremely remarkable.
It seems that only by completely mastering the first stage of the Mid-Law, ’force’, could one enter the second level.
The second level requires complete mastery of domains.
"Forget it, let’s leave first, but today’s trial has deepened my understanding of utilizing ’force’." Xu Nian stood up and walked out of the hall.
"How was it?" Xue Bing approached with a smile.
"I failed!" Xu Nian replied with a helpless smile.
Xue Bing smiled, "It’s fine, failure at first is quite normal. Not many in Shendang Mountain can succeed on the first attempt into the second level. You’ve done well to persist for so long inside."
In Xue Bing’s view, Xu Nian must have forcefully persisted to last so long.
He didn’t believe Xu Nian could kill all the Taigu Fierce Wolves.
Xu Nian nodded with a smile.
He didn’t mind Xue Bing’s misunderstanding.
"You couldn’t hold on for long, yet you insisted on staying in there for so long. Kid, do you think deceiving yourself helps?" Tang Fei approached with a cold smile.
As soon as he spoke, many people turned to look at Xu Nian.
Did this kid deliberately stay in there for a long time?
Is he so vain?
"Tang Fei, are you looking for trouble again?" Xue Bing snorted coldly.
"Xue Bing, what business do you have here?" Tang Fei said, anger surging as he narrowed his eyes.
Back then, he was harshly reprimanded by Xue Bing for aggressively pursuing Lin Hengxin.
He still remembers this grudge to this day.
If he could beat Xue Bing, he would have challenged him to a life-and-death duel long ago.
"What business? Xu Nian is my direct junior brother, he’s acknowledged me as his big brother. You’re publicly slandering him; do you think I’ll ignore it? Tang Fei, if you continue to spread rumors and cause trouble, don’t blame me for challenging you to a life-and-death duel," Xue Bing snorted.
Tang Fei, hearing this, frowned without saying more.
Though he could decline if Xue Bing challenged him to a life-and-death duel.
But doing so would bring shame to a Direct Disciple.
Then, in Shendang Mountain, he could no longer hold his head high.
"Xue Bing, my junior merely speaks the truth, yet you’re using strength to suppress him. Do you think this will silence everyone?" A tall young man stood out, looking sharply at Xue Bing.
"Exactly, if you can’t pass, you can’t pass. Staying inside and wasting time thinking you’d earn respect?" an adjacent Direct Disciple mocked.
This statement instantly resonated with the other disciples nearby.
It was clear that they were supported by Immortal Sovereign-level nominal disciples.
Xue Bing frowned tightly, not knowing how to counter.
After all, he didn’t know if Xu Nian really had wasted time inside.
"Tang Fei, you’re a bit too restless, aren’t you?" Xue Bing snorted coldly.
"Xue Bing, trying to use your strength to suppress my junior disciple, do you really think you can silence everyone like that?" a tall young man said, stepping forward and looking at Xue Bing.
"Just tell the truth, if you really think wasting time in there will earn you respect?" another Direct Disciple scoffed.
The remark immediately resonated with many disciples.
Xue Bing frowned tightly, not knowing how to retort.
He didn’t know if Xu Nian was really in there wasting time.
"Tang Fei, are you itching for trouble again?" Xue Bing said with a cold snort.
Finally, Xu Nian, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke with a smile, "Is self-deception really useful?"
This statement immediately caused a stir among the crowd.
"Tang Fei, are you asking for trouble again?" Xue Bing said angrily.
