Chapter 30: Tianming Enters the Saint Realm

Subsequently, everyone saw Xiao Han, dressed in red wedding robes, appear before them with a cold expression.

"Oh?" Tianming Laoyao laughed, "My Tianming Sect has only come here to spar with Pavilion Master Su; we have absolutely no ill intent."

"Then I'm sorry, but I do have ill intent." As Xiao Han's words fell, the members of the Tianming Sect felt the ambient temperature drop sharply. Some of the lower-cultivation Elders even sneezed unexpectedly.

"From this day forth, there is no need for your Tianming Sect to exist."

"It seems Pavilion Master Su's confidence has greatly increased after breaking through in cultivation?" Tianming Laoyao said indifferently, as if he had anticipated this long ago.

"It seems you also have some trump cards up your sleeve?" Xiao Han was stunned, though he didn't care; after all, he was certain to win this game.

The Tianming Sect was absolutely not allowed to survive; even if a Soul Clan Dou Sheng were to intervene personally, the outcome would not change in the slightest.

Tianming Laoyao's actions today had pushed Xiao Han's patience to its absolute limit.

He had originally intended to hide his strength and let them live a little longer, but he hadn't expected these idiots to rush to their deaths.

Since that was the case, Xiao Han would grant their wish.

"That is only natural. You, Ice Venerable... oh no, it should be Ice Saint now. I have had a deep experience with your methods.

If I didn't prepare a few more tricks, how would this old bag of bones dare to come and provoke you?"

Seeming to feel that victory was within his grasp, Tianming Laoyao looked smug.

At this moment, many people had already begun to come out to watch.

Judging by the tone of the Elder responsible for receiving guests earlier, the Langya Pavilion, especially the Ice Saint, had greatly increased in strength. They had assumed the Tianming Sect was coming to their deaths today.

But now, it didn't seem that way. The Ancestor of the Tianming Sect seemed very confident.

Indeed! Tianyin Laoren, Elder Qiu, and representatives of many top-tier factions had looks of sudden realization. This old fellow really was prepared.

"I won't beat around the bush anymore; today I will show you the source of this Saint's confidence."

This Saint?

The expressions of Tianyin Laoren and the others shifted, their faces turning pale. Had he actually broken through to Dou Sheng?

The next moment, as if to verify their suspicions, a vast and majestic aura radiated from Tianming Laoyao's body.

Many people immediately felt a sense of discomfort, and some of the weaker Dou Zuns had already begun to circulate their Dou Qi to resist this pressure.

Clearly, this kind of aura was not something a mere Half-Saint could compare to.

At this moment, the tide of opinion shifted entirely toward the Tianming Sect.

"Sigh, I didn't expect the Tianming Sect Ancestor to break through to Dou Sheng. It looks like the Langya Pavilion is finished."

"Should we send some gifts to the Tianming Sect and try to build a relationship? It would be bad if we were held a grudge against."

"The Tianming Sect Disciples were already arrogant enough; I expect their tails will be wagging in the sky from now on."

"Nothing we can do about it; who told them their Ancestor is so strong?"

……

Tianmingzi and the other high-ranking members of the Tianming Sect also looked at their Ancestor with pleasant surprise; they had thought their Ancestor had lost his mind, but it turned out he had broken through.

With a Dou Sheng powerhouse, our Tianming Sect will surely become powerful once again. The Ancestor is playing at the fifth level here.

"Hahaha, Pavilion Master Su, I advise you to surrender quickly. If our Ancestor is in a good mood, he might just spare your Langya Pavilion." Tianmingzi's spine had stiffened now, and he spoke arrogantly to Xiao Han and the members of the Langya Pavilion.

Even the Elders of the Langya Pavilion felt that things were looking ominous. Their Pavilion Master might not be able to hold on.

One had to know that the gap between a Half-Saint and a Dou Sheng was far greater than the gap between a Dou Zun Peak and a Half-Saint.

However, even so, none of them had considered surrendering.

Are you joking? Does the Tianming Sect have any credibility in the Central Plains? If they fought now, they might still be able to carve out a path of survival for their Disciples.

Rather than pinning their hopes on the mercy of a snake.

Tianyin Laoren's expression shifted; the development of today's events had exceeded his expectations. Tianming Laoyao had actually reached that legendary level.

Even if he had just broken through, he was still a Dou Sheng! In an era where no Dou Di appeared, a Dou Sheng was the peak powerhouse.

Should he help?

This was a fatal move; if he took the wrong step, the fate of Sound Valley would be even more tragic than before.

After a long while, Tianyin Laoren gritted his teeth and sent a voice transmission to Xiao Han: "Pavilion Master Su, I will join forces with you. As long as we can force Tianming Laoyao back today, everything else will be manageable.

I wonder if Pavilion Master Su is willing to give it a try?"

"Oh?" Xiao Han raised an eyebrow, feeling surprised. He hadn't expected Tianyin Laoren to go to such lengths for the Langya Pavilion.

Although Xiao Han had once done a great favor for Tianyin Laoren, he had never expected his favor to be enough to make the other party live and die with him.

In this situation, one wrong move would offend a Dou Sheng-level great power, which, for a sect without a Saint Realm expert, would be a disaster that could lead to the sect's destruction.

Even if he stood by and watched, no one would say anything.

Especially since, in the eyes of the world, the Langya Pavilion was no match for a Dou Sheng. After all, at this level, it was no longer a matter of winning by numbers.

"Can you tell me why? Don't tell me it's just out of sentiment; I don't believe in that sort of thing," Xiao Han asked.

Tianyin Laoren gave a bitter laugh, "Nothing can be hidden from a clever monkey like you.

You must know that the Tianming Sect's strength will surely increase now that they have a Dou Sheng Ancestor. If you are wiped out, I, who am seen by all factions as an ally of the Langya Pavilion, might be the next one they target.

So it is better to fight now; there is a better chance of survival.

Moreover, you are still very young. As long as you survive, the Dou Sheng realm will certainly not be able to trap you in the future.

As for me, my potential is exhausted. Although I don't know how that old ghost Tianming broke through, without a stroke of luck, it is impossible for me to step into that level.

So I hope to obtain a favor from you; when you become a Saint in the future, you must also help me break through to the Saint Realm.

I also want to see the scenery at that height." His tone at the end was even filled with a sense of vicissitudes and hope.

Immediately, his tone shifted, "And I don't believe that with our combined strength, we can't even defeat a Tianming Laoyao who has only barely stepped into the early stage of One-Star Dou Sheng.

If we were just ordinary people, that would be wishful thinking. But I have never doubted the combat power of a monster like you."

"I couldn't tell, you old man actually trust me so much; that puts a lot of pressure on me!" Xiao Han teased.

"Don't you often say that the good don't live long, but the wicked live for a thousand years? You were a great scourge in the Central Plains back then; you will definitely be able to survive."

Speaking of this, Tianyin Laoren also felt relieved; yes, this guy would definitely be able to survive.

"Then many thanks."

"That's right, when should I make my move?" Tianyin Laoren had originally been worried that Xiao Han wouldn't be able to let go and would insist on stubbornly fighting Tianming Laoyao one-on-one.

"But there's no need, I can do it myself." However, Xiao Han's next words made Tianyin Laoren freeze, and he immediately became anxious again.

"You... why do you still not understand?... Sigh? No, that's not right!" Tianyin Laoren suddenly realized.

It seemed this guy wasn't such a foolish person after all?

Perhaps... he should believe in him once?

"What is your current strength?" Tianyin Laoren asked.

"I never said I was only a Half-Saint, did I? I am, after all, the monster you spoke of!" Xiao Han said with a slight smile, leaving Tianyin Laoren stunned on the spot.

"A monster naturally has to be able to do what ordinary people cannot, old man."

Finally, Tianyin Laoren smiled with relief; yes, in a hundred years of time, who could say this kid wouldn't reach the level of a Dou Sheng?

Observing Ye Jianxin's expression again, it remained incredibly calm, even showing a hint of pity; it seems I really have grown old!

Tianyin Laoren sighed to himself.
