Who Among You Can Kill Me?

Which of You Can Kill Me?...

The moment Shang Qi's words echoed, the initial expressions of anger quickly morphed into looks of avarice. The killing intent emanating from the experts of the major powers surged even higher, as if they couldn't wait to step onto the stage and eliminate Qin Wentian.

"Now it makes sense." They finally grasped Qin Wentian's true intent. His challenge to the five Chosen wasn't merely a display of strength. It was driven by a desire for revenge.

The King's Manor experts from Xuan King City seethed with fury at Qin Wentian's audacious pursuit of Shang Qi. They stood and bellowed indignantly, "IMPUDENT!"

However, Qin Wentian paid them no mind. He had climbed onto this stage precisely because all six Chosen were present. His goal was straightforward: to kill them all and leave none alive. Since his true motives were exposed, there was no need for excuses or explanations.

In a flash of astral brilliance, he executed Stellar Transposition. Qin Wentian reappeared behind Shang Qi, thrusting his spear with lightning speed. The long spear moved without a sound, cutting through the air silently. Nevertheless, it generated a powerful shockwave that seemed capable of tearing apart the surrounding space.

Shang Qi sensed the immense pressure. A deafening roar echoed as he was drawn into a nightmarish realm. In this surreal world, countless blood-red halberds assailed him, each radiating a life-stealing gleam and an eerie, malevolent aura, poised to claim his life.

"ARGHH!" Shang Qi's cry rang out as the bloodline within him surged with energy. His body trembled like mountains quaking, producing thunderous explosions from deep within. Suddenly, a golden radiance erupted, intermingled with crimson. It enveloped Shang Qi in a protective cocoon.

"BANG!" The shockwave was incredibly potent, impacting the cocoon and sending waves of pulsating energy through it. Although the cocoon shattered, a layer of blood energy still shielded Shang Qi. He coughed up blood as the force of the blow propelled him forward. King's Manor experts were already advancing toward the stage, ready to rescue him. Although they didn't step onto the stage, they hovered at its edges.

"QUICKLY!" One of them reached out to grab Shang Qi and pull him to safety. Gritting his teeth, Shang Qi unleashed the full might of his bloodline, vastly increasing his speed as he continued to dash forward.

"Do you think you can escape?" A beam of radiant light shot from the center of Qin Wentian's forehead. His demonic energy surged, blood boiling and seething within him, conjuring a fearsome blood-red vortex at the tip of his spear.

"DIE!" Qin Wentian's shout rang out. The moment the King's Manor expert seized Shang Qi, Qin Wentian's spear descended.

"Thud..." Shang Qi's body convulsed violently. Although the King's Manor expert successfully pulled Shang Qi to his side, it was too late. Shang Qi was already lifeless. His face was a gruesome mask of blood, as his arteries, meridians, bones, and even his heart had been utterly shredded.

Qin Wentian's spear strike had harnessed the power of his bloodline and his Mandate of Force, resulting in the catastrophic implosion of Shang Qi's body.

"You..." The King's Manor expert wore a grim expression. In an instant, he activated his bloodline power, shrouding Qin Wentian and immobilizing him.

The spectators below were still in stunned silence, utterly amazed by Qin Wentian's audacious act. Even after his true identity had been exposed, he unleashed an even more devastating attack to slay Shang Qi, completely disregarding the King's Manor.

Xu Feng and Ji Xue stood on the stage, their hearts racing. They finally recognized the man—Qin Wentian. He had come for vengeance, and he now possessed such formidable power that he could effortlessly eliminate the chosen. Ji Xue finally grasped why the black-robed young man had repeatedly referred to himself as Qin. He was, indeed, none other than Qin Wentian!

As for Yun Rou, who had accompanied Qin Wentian, her emotions were a tangled mess. Her eyes were wide, as if they might pop out of her head. The young man she had constantly been advising... he was actually this mighty?

In the royal clan's seating area, the young man with golden eyes wore a smile as he observed the unfolding drama. Shang Qi's death didn't bother him at all. In fact, the young man in black had exceeded his expectations.

As for Shang Yue, the princess of the King's Manor in Xuan King City, she was witnessing firsthand how this young man sought revenge on the six chosen who had hunted him down in the past. A complex emotion welled up within her as she watched.

"He has spatial transference scrolls on him. Don't let him escape."

"We need to dismember his body into ten thousand pieces and scatter his remains in the wilderness for the demonic beasts to feast on!"

The experts from the five major powers, along with those from the King's Manor in Xuan King City, were infuriated. They had reached the boundaries of the stage and were itching to step onto it and personally slaughter Qin Wentian.

Leng Tu of the Blood Cloud Sect felt a chill in his heart as he observed the unfolding chaos. He had been part of the same party as Qin Wentian in the hidden realm. Fortunately, he hadn't shown ingratitude like Xie Yu and the others. Otherwise, he might be facing their grim fate today.

"In this disciple recruitment event held by the nine great sects, only the qualified are allowed on this stage. Life and death are determined by one's fate, a fact acknowledged by both the royal clan and the nine great sects. If they perished at my hands, it only means their strength was insufficient. But now, all of you from Xuan King City want to rush onto this stage and seek my life? Do you belittle the prestige granted by the nine great sects, or do you hold the royal clan in contempt?" Qin Wentian's voice boomed, resonating like thunder for miles around. With both the nine great sects and the royal clan sanctioning this event, who dared to charge forward and attack him?

His words stung like a slap to the faces of the experts from the major powers in Xuan King City. They fell into a heavy silence, but their eyes burned with vindictive hatred.

"We will respect the directive of the nine great sects and the royal clan. However, if you attempt to escape using a spatial transference scroll, we won't hesitate to intervene," declared a figure from the King's Manor with a cold tone. Shang Qi had been a promising junior from their clan, a chosen one highly valued. Yet, Qin Wentian had audaciously killed him in broad daylight, right before their eyes.

As the voice trailed off, a sixth-level Heavenly Dipper Sovereign had already navigated the formation. He wasted no time and charged towards Qin Wentian.

This expert hailed from the Golden Fire Aristocrat Clan. While he possessed formidable combat abilities among the sixth-level Heavenly Dipper Sovereigns, he knew that due to his age, there was no chance of being selected by the nine great sects even if he passed the test. Hence, he had stayed back until now.

After all, talent ranked supreme when it came to the selection of disciples by the nine great sects. Given his age and the fact that he had lingered at the sixth level of Heavenly Dipper for years, it spoke volumes about his lack of talent.

Yet, here he was, stepping onto the stage with the intent to kill Qin Wentian.

"I want to see him suffer in the most excruciating pain, his flesh consumed by flames," a formidable figure from the Golden Fire Aristocrat Clan commanded with a chilling tone, his voice dripping with malevolence. His hatred for Qin Wentian had seeped deep into his bones. Jin Yan was his son, and for this life, he demanded vengeance—Qin Wentian must die.

"Who said I was planning to leave?" Qin Wentian retorted, locking eyes with the expert who had spoken. With a sudden shift in the lines of his features, his original countenance was revealed.

Indeed, he was the same white-robed young man who had led the six major powers on a wild chase, inflicting severe losses upon them. Now, he had returned for vengeance, akin to a god of death hunting down the chosen of the six powers.

These demon-level geniuses before him were like helpless saplings waiting to be felled, raising doubts about their qualifications as chosen.

Lin Shuai of the Battle Sword Sect felt a spark of recognition when he saw Qin Wentian's true face.

So, the white-robed young man he had seen in the image had already garnered his master's attention. Qin Wentian's earlier display of dominance had made him stand out vividly. The chosen of Xuan King City were mere shadows in his presence.

"I, Qin, am but one man," Qin Wentian declared with a sardonic smile. "On that day in the Heavenly Mountains, experts from all six major powers, including those at the advanced stages of Heavenly Dipper, were present to greet me. Your high regard for me truly warms my heart. Since I, Qin, have graced you with my presence today, I see no reason to leave without expressing my gratitude for the warm welcome I received from the six major powers."

His words dripped with sarcasm, and his bloodline surged as an overwhelming demonic aura enveloped him. His black hair danced in the wind, his eyes, darker than the abyss, shone with the brilliance of constellations. A third eye opened in the center of his brow, and his aura surged relentlessly, making him appear as the descendant of an ancient primordial demon king, determined to conquer the world.

An expert from the Golden Fire Aristocrat Clan stepped forward, flames enveloping his body. His astral souls and novas blazed, their radiance blinding the onlookers. His blood surged, conjuring numerous golden lotuses before him, emanating a menacing heat.

He ascended into the air, closing in on Qin Wentian. His fiery palms were blinding, their brightness making it impossible for the spectators to keep their eyes open. An immense golden lotus materialized in the air, transforming into a sea of golden petals that swept toward Qin Wentian.

Qin Wentian soared as well, his absolute obedience forcefield creating a shockwave that shredded the petals. Above his head floated the King Sword astral nova, a weapon fit for kings and without equal.

"DIE!" A boundless sword intent filled the space, causing the smaller golden lotuses around the expert to explode as they tried to defend against the onslaught.

"BOOM!" Qin Wentian took another step, causing the very space to tremble. He executed Stellar Transformation as his long spear pierced through the void, targeting his opponent.

The Golden Fire Aristocrat Clan expert formed double-handed incantation gestures, conjuring nine blazing suns that advanced with destructive power. However, the long spear shattered all nine suns with unstoppable force. Simultaneously, the expert trembled as he was dragged into a nightmarish dreamscape, his will too feeble to resist.

Despite the many casualties he had inflicted, no one could comprehend the source of Qin Wentian's formidable spear arts. The terrifying power of this devilish dreamscape was beyond understanding unless one experienced it personally.

"Puchi!" The incomprehensible spear struck again. Despite his opponent's sixth-level Yuanfu cultivation base, Qin Wentian's bloodline activation leveled the playing field. Combined with his Transformation Boundary Mandates and the horrifying nightmare dreamscape, who among those of the same level could withstand a single spear thrust?

"DIE!" Qin Wentian spat out, and before the stunned crowd, the expert's head split open, his life extinguished by the spear that penetrated his skull.

The radiance of the nine suns faded, and Qin Wentian's eyes gleamed with unshakable confidence as he surveyed the onlookers. In a chilling tone, he challenged them, "Who among you dares to try and kill me?"
