Chapter 2: Chapter Two: The Ultimate Master!

Boom!

Luo Ling, who was asleep, suddenly woke up and flew straight to the roof—his family's protective barrier had been destroyed, and from the distant sky, a Black Shadow Man drifted out.

The Black Shadow Man was mysterious, clad in a black robe, his face concealed, utterly unidentifiable!

Luo Ling stared at the shadow with a blank expression, half-asleep, and guessed: "From the Tian Family?"

The Black Shadow Man nodded. "You've provoked someone you shouldn't have. I represent the Tian Family to take your head and your brother's head!"

Luo Ling's eyes flashed with cruelty, then he turned and left.

The Black Shadow Man looked at the boy before him, frowning slightly—this boy showed not a trace of fear?

Unnatural!

Seeing Luo Ling depart, the Black Shadow Man assumed he was fleeing; he was about to speak when a blade of light stabbed toward his throat, and his body gradually grew translucent.

The Black Shadow Man was stunned—completely stunned! He was instantly killed, and crucially, he had no idea how the boy had drawn his sword. He was the Commander of the Black Shadow Army of the Tian Family, a Ling Xuan Zhe! And yet he was wiped out by this boy—what level of power was required to do that?

In the shadows, the Tian Jia Da Zhang Lao witnessed this and immediately retreated, his brow deeply furrowed—instantly killing a Ling Xuan Zhe? Impressive! Though he himself was at Ling Xuan Zhe Peak, he had no confidence he could instantly kill a Ling Xuan Zhe, let alone one of this Commander rank.

Tian Family.

The Great Elder arrived at a sealed chamber behind the main hall and bowed slightly: "Family Head, that boy can instantly kill a Ling Xuan Zhe—this exceeds our understanding. Please, you must appear in person!"

Boom!

A mysterious force slammed into the Great Elder, hurling him back nearly a hundred zhang; when he stopped, his body had grown faintly translucent.

At that moment, the Family Head spoke: "You're truly useless. I've trained you for decades, moved you all to Dao Ling Shan—and yet you don't even have a single Dao Xuan Zhe??"

The Great Elder was also stunned. He knew his Family Head was strong, but never imagined he was this powerful. He himself was at Ling Xuan Zhe Peak, Dao Ling Realm—nearly a half-step to Dao Xuan Zhe. Yet before his Family Head, he was utterly weak. Realizing this, the Great Elder grew even more reverent and hurriedly said: "Family Head, rest assured—I'll immediately mobilize six Elder Elders in seclusion to capture Luo Ling!"

The Family Head said: "One day. If the mission isn't completed within one day, I will no longer manage this Tian Family—I'll lock all of you fools into Wu Bian Zhi Di and make you wish you were dead!" His voice carried immense fury.

Wu Bian Zhi Di—a place that sent chills down the spine.

The Dao Ling Shan Tian Family was, in truth, a force casually created by the Tian Family's Family Head—Tian Wang. He didn't care much for this family, merely sending occasional resources. His sole purpose this time was to let his son, Tian Ye, undergo trials here.

Tian Wang was truly enraged. Tian Ye was his only child. As soon as Tian Ye's Xuan Body opened, he entered Ling Xuan Zhe Peak Qi Bian Realm—extraordinary talent. So Tian Wang moved this entire Tian lineage to Dao Ling Shan to accompany Tian Ye's trials. Yet not a single Elder paid attention, resulting in Tian Ye's death. The moment he thought of it, he wanted to strangle Luo Ling and all these Elders—but his physical body was far away, so he could only project his voice here.

To Tian Wang, Dao Ling Shan was merely a low-tier place; its strongest were only at Ling Xuan Zhe Peak.

On Xuan Zhe Continent, the strongest known are Dao Xuan Zhe. The three tiers, from low to high: Xuan Zhe, Ling Xuan Zhe, Dao Xuan Zhe. Each tier has three sub-levels.

Within Xuan Zhe: Ru Xuan Realm, Luck Realm, Qi Bian Realm.

Within Ling Xuan Zhe: Ling Shen Realm, Ling Ti Realm, Dao Ling Realm.

Within Dao Xuan Zhe: Da Dao Realm, Tian Dao Realm, Shen Dao Realm.

The gap between each realm is astronomical!

Ru Xuan means the body has opened its Xuan Body and gained Xuan Qi. Then Xuan Qi is refined within the body, circulating to the five organs and six viscera to achieve Luck. Then Xuan Qi transforms into Ling Qi to reach Qi Bian. The process is arduous, but talent is crucial!

Previously, Tian Ye had reached Xuan Zhe Peak and grown arrogant, provoking Luo Ling.

This was normal. Among the younger generation on Dao Ling Shan, most prodigies were only at Luck Realm, and even that after years of cultivation. Tian Ye truly had extraordinary talent—he opened his Xuan Body, entered Ru Xuan, obtained Ling Qi, and his aura instantly transformed, reaching Qi Bian Peak. Unfortunately, young ones sparring was harmless, but he insisted on provoking Luo Ling's brother, ruining his bright future!

(Chapter unfinished, please turn page)

His great future, destroyed in an instant!

The difference between Xuan Zhe and Ling Xuan Zhe was immense—Luo Ling casually slashed a Ling Xuan Zhe with one sword, and the entire Tian Family was stunned!

The Tian Family's disturbance was massive—this incident could not be hidden!

The entire Dao Ling Shan was shocked!

Everyone knew Luo Ling was Dao Ling Shan's greatest prodigy. Previously, people thought he was invincible among Ling Xuan Zhe—but instantly killing a Ling Xuan Zhe? A sixteen-year-old boy wiping out a Ling Xuan Zhe? Everyone was stunned. Even Dao Ling Shan's strongest ancient monsters were only at Ling Xuan Zhe Peak!

Even a Ling Xuan Zhe at Dao Ling Realm fighting a Ling Shen Realm could only easily defeat them—instant killing might truly be impossible! Thinking of this, everyone's expressions turned strange!

Could Luo Ling have reached Dao Xuan Zhe? But no such being existed on Dao Ling Shan—Dao Xuan Zhe were merely legendary figures!

Suddenly, Luo Ling's name spread like wildfire across Dao Ling Shan, and legends about Luo Ling began to circulate...

"Look! That's Luo Ling's younger brother—quickly treat him well!" A startled voice rang out from the street.

Everyone turned to look, frantically pulling out rare treasures and rushing toward Luo Ze. A woman's voice rang out: "Luo Ze, little brother, you're so cute! Sister will give you this treasured Jade Fan." No sooner had she spoken than the crowd erupted.

The woman wore a blue-purple dress, holding a Dark Gold Purple Fan, her face veiled by a thin silk gauze—through it, her exquisite beauty, delicate features, and graceful figure were visible—a true beauty!

At that moment, countless people on the street were stunned. They shouted: "Miss Tang!"

This was Tang Yan, the eldest daughter of Dao Ling Shan's strongest family—the Tang Family. The Tang Family's influence on Dao Ling Shan was unquestionably number one. This eldest daughter not only possessed peerless beauty but also unfathomable strength. She was only seventeen, yet her talent was unparalleled on Dao Ling Shan—she was hailed at age nine as the most prodigious girl in Dao Ling Shan's history. At twelve, she reached Ling Xuan Zhe. At fifteen, she reached Ling Xuan Zhe Peak and left Dao Ling Shan. Now that she had returned, no one knew her current realm!

Luo Ling earned the title of Dao Ling Shan's greatest prodigy at age fifteen—by then, Tang Yan had already left.

Currently, among the younger generation, except for this absent Tang Yan, he was the top prodigy!

No one expected Tang Yan to return. No one knew where she had been during these years. What no one knew was that even the Tang Family Head could not fathom her depth.

Tang Yan was not surprised by the crowd's reaction. She stroked Luo Ze's head, a faint smile tugging at her lips.

Luo Ze was about to speak when Tang Yan suddenly lifted her head, gazing at a certain direction, then grabbed Luo Ze and vanished from the spot.

After a long absence, the scene gradually calmed, and the crowd dispersed...

Tang Yan brought Luo Ze to a mountain peak. Luo Ling stood opposite, staring at her with a blank expression: "What do you want?" He frowned slightly.

Because the Tang Yan before him had vanished. At that moment, from the distant sky, a woman descended. Countless purple auras converged into the fan in her hand. Moments later, the Purple Fan trembled violently, transforming into a streak of purple light that shot toward Luo Ling below!

Seeing these purple auras, Luo Ling's eyes grew more serious—this was Purple Xuan Qi, second only to Golden Xuan Qi. He closed his eyes, thought once, and the Blue Sword at his waist shot skyward, emitting a chorus of sword cries. Now the Blue Sword brimmed with countless blue lights, its sword cries thundering loudly!

Both attacks seemed simple, yet each concealed lethal intent!

The two forces collided!

Boom!

Boom—!

The power was too immense—the entire sky echoed with explosions. Below, Luo Ze quickly covered his ears and hid beneath Luo Ling's swordlight, or else the shockwave would have obliterated him instantly!

Countless people on Dao Ling Shan turned their gazes toward this direction!

Which two elders are fighting?

In the arena, countless people were curious—could it be that the two families had gone to war? Making such a huge commotion. Then, in less than half a quarter-hour, half the forces of Dao Ling Shan had gathered to watch, among them, members of the Tang Family.

At this moment they stopped fighting. Luo Ling glanced at Tang Yan, a strange glint flashing through his eyes, then took Luo Ze and left!

When they saw Tang Yan, they first froze for a moment, then hurriedly paid their respects!

time, the crowd came to their senses and began shouting, "Miss Tang!" Tang Yan smiled slightly, returning the courtesy, then said: "It's nothing really, I was just sparring with an absolute powerhouse, made a bit of a scene, sorry, sorry!"

An absolute powerhouse!

The expressions of everyone present turned strange. What kind of existence could make even Tang Yan call them an absolute powerhouse? The crowd looked at Tang Yan—regardless of whether it was true or not, when it came to Tang Yan, they believed her without a doubt.

"Miss Tang, what level have you reached now?" someone in the crowd asked. As soon as the words were spoken, the others also looked at Tang Yan one after another. They couldn't see through Tang Yan's strength now, and were all very curious.

Tang Yan blinked and laughed: "Not that strong, really. About fifty-fifty with Dao Xuan Zhe Peak!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present gave a slight bow. In terms of strength, the woman before them could already be called a senior.

Dao Xuan Zhe—a legendary realm!

Fifty-fifty with Dao Xuan Zhe Peak? This was completely beyond what they could imagine. As for the absolute powerhouse she mentioned, they feared it might even surpass Dao Xuan Zhe. Thinking of this, they were all curious about that powerhouse. On Xuan Zhe Continent, there was actually such a strong expert! The crowd still wanted to keep asking...

As if guessing what the crowd was thinking, Tang Yan hurriedly said: "I still have matters to attend to, I won't say more. Farewell, everyone!"

"Miss Tang, take care!" The crowd once again gave Tang Yan a slight bow, expressing their respect!

In the shadows, Luo Ling led Luo Ze out.

Of this entire day, Luo Ze was the most bewildered. When he woke up in the morning, he heard everyone talking about his brother, but in the afternoon Luo Ling suddenly vanished. Luo Ze went to the streets to look for Luo Ling, only to be taken away by a pretty older sister. Just as he was about to say something, in the blink of an eye the pretty older sister and his brother started fighting—he had no idea what was going on at all.

"Bro, are you an absolute powerhouse?" Luo Ze asked, looking at his brother before him.

Asked like this by Luo Ze, his expression shifted slightly. What madness had this Miss Tang gone crazy about, calling herself an absolute powerhouse... Good thing he left early.

"Bro?" Seeing Luo Ling hadn't answered, Luo Ze asked again.

Luo Ling suddenly scooped Luo Ze up, brought his mouth close to Luo Ze's ear, and laughed: "Actually, your brother is an absolute powerhouse!" Then he kissed Luo Ze on the cheek.

Luo Ze froze for a moment, then beamed: "Yay, then I'm the little brother of an absolute powerhouse!" So saying, he opened his mouth and was about to bite Luo Ling's face.

Luo Ling got a fright, quickly put Luo Ze down, then laughed heartily: "Oh, you little stinker, daring to bite your brother!" So saying, he reached both hands toward little Ze and started tickling him.

Luo Ze, being tickled, laughed out loud and hurriedly admitted his mistake, "Bro, I was wrong, I was wrong, put me down quick, haha, it tickles, bro!"

Along with the brothers' playful sounds, night gradually drew its curtain. Both brothers were a bit tired from this day. Luo Ling took two lounge chairs and went up to the rooftop.

The two brothers lay in the chairs, tilting their heads back to gaze at the starry sky, casting all their worries behind them. The two began to open their hearts and chat freely......

At this moment, a point of blue light in the distant starry sky trembled slightly, and the Blue Sword at Luo Ling's waist suddenly flew out.

Luo Ling, who had been chatting, changed expression slightly. With a thought, the Blue Sword was not recalled, and stopped in the empty space not far away. Just as Luo Ling was about to fly over and grab the sword, Luo Ze tugged at the corner of his clothes. At this moment Luo Ling did not notice a flash of blue light flicker through Luo Ze's eyes!

Luo Ling turned to look at Luo Ze. Luo Ze smiled slightly: "Bro, I'll perform a magic trick for you." So saying, Luo Ze's body gradually became illusory, actually transforming into little dots of blue light. Seeing this scene, Luo Ling's face changed drastically, "No, little Ze, what are you doing!" So saying, he used all his strength to grab at these light dots, but no matter what, he couldn't catch them!

After a moment, little Ze had completely vanished. The blue light dots he had turned into merged toward the distant starry sky, and in the blink of an eye were gone!

Luo Ling panicked. He panicked!

What was his little brother doing? In Luo Ling's understanding, a body becoming illusory was very serious, and complete disappearance meant...

Ah! Luo Ling dared not think further!

"Little Ze, can you hear me talking? Say something!" Luo Ling began to roar at the top of his lungs!

No sound!

In the arena, apart from Luo Ling's hoarse, desperate voice, no other sound arose!
