Trillionaire's Slice of Life

Chapter 1184: Chapter 742: Destroying Heaven and Earth_2

Finally managing to control the rampaging energy within her body, Qin Ning, whose face was full of fear, gently licked her lips. After massaging her numb legs, she stood up shakily and couldn’t help but harbor bitterness in her heart: she had merely pointed at the other party lightly with her finger, and they had almost killed her. This person really was extremely petty.

At this moment, Qin Ning’s heart was filled with resolution. Once she returned, she would definitely practice diligently. One day, when her cultivation was successful, she vowed to seek revenge on that man.

While thinking this, Qin Ning softly asked:

“Master, just how strong is that person? When can I catch up to him?”

As Qin Ning pondered how to take her revenge, the square-faced man beside her sighed helplessly. Having lived with Qin Ning for twenty years, he knew all too well the little schemes of this young girl. If it were an ordinary person who dared to inflict such a heavy injury on his precious disciple, he wouldn’t wait for the future; he would’ve taken matters into his own hands to teach them a lesson.

But the young-looking man before them…

Just one glance from him carried the strength to make one’s True Qi flow in reverse and render them incapable of resistance. Not to mention taking revenge, even thinking of catching up to his pace seemed incredibly difficult.

Fearing that his disciple would behave recklessly in the future, the middle-aged man spoke directly to shatter all of Qin Ning’s illusions, and said in a deep voice:

“If we’re talking about that girl, your master might be able to gauge that she is of the Great Grandmaster’s strength. As for that senior… even your master cannot probe his level of cultivation. However… the warning in that person’s glance just now seemed to carry a hint of Spiritual Energy…

Little girl, remember this, that person is definitely someone we cannot afford to provoke.

If your master isn’t wrong, then that person should be the legendary Half-step Celestial God!”

As the man spoke, Qin Ning immediately gaped, her large eyes wide open and her entire demeanor one of astonishment.

A Half-step Celestial God was an existence that only appeared in myths, the ultimate dream of every Martial Artist. Even a minor martial artist like Qin Ning would fantasize in the quiet of the night, dreaming of seeing such a being one day.

As for herself, Qin Ning’s greatest wish was to break through into the Great Grandmaster Realm within her lifetime. Simply being able to call herself a junior Great Grandmaster was already her unwavering desire. The realm of Celestial Gods was nothing but a myth to her.

But now, witnessing a myth come to life right before her eyes, and having pointed rudely at that person no less, Qin Ning felt a deep sense of shame welling up within her.

While Qin Ning was fully fixated on the enigmatic man above, she suddenly felt the air around her becoming immobile, and the temperature plummeting swiftly. In just a short moment, her blood felt as if it was starting to freeze.

“Fully stimulate your True Qi!”

Heeding the reminder that rang in her ears, the suddenly alert Qin Ning immediately circulated the Innate True Qi within her body. As the True Qi flowed continuously, her body, which was on the verge of freezing, slowly began to warm up.

By the time Qin Ning looked up again, she noticed that the man who seemed like a mythological figure in her eyes was still looking up, gazing towards even higher echelons above him.

Despite only being able to see half of the mysterious man’s profile, Qin Ning could still discern a hint of reverence in his eyes.

What kind of fearsome entity could incite awe in a mysterious, powerful being of the Celestial God Realm…

Only at this point did Qin Ning shift her gaze from the man and woman a kilometer above her head, and as she followed their gaze higher into the sky, she finally saw two men confronting each other tens of thousands of meters high in the sky.

Before, the distance to the opponent was simply too far, and even with Qin Ning’s vision, she could only perceive two blurry specks; thus, she did not pay them any mind, instead focusing her attention on a man and a woman who were closer to her.

However, now, as the temperature around her plummeted abruptly, she looked around and discovered that at the heart of the Demon Capital, the rooftops of dozens of skyscrapers were already occupied by numerous top-tier powerhouses, each enveloped in a faint layer of Innate True Qi and exuding a formidable presence.

As an A-level Martial Artist, Qin Ning was well aware that anyone capable of releasing Innate True Qi had to be at least at the level of a Great Grandmaster, and at this moment, right before her eyes, there were no less than dozens of Great Grandmasters gathered in the Demon Capital.

The scene before her shattered all of Qin Ning’s common knowledge that she had acquired over her 20 years of life.

She had previously believed that in the entire world beyond Hua Country, there were only ten Grandmasters, and globally just ten Great Grandmasters. And yet, just within her view, a rough estimate revealed at least thirty Grandmaster-level figures.

And the existence of beings at the Celestial God Realm, which she had thought were only part of mythological tales, were now vividly present before her eyes.

What was even more inconceivable to Qin Ning was that despite the appearance of Celestial God Realm experts, and even mythological figures standing right there, none of the dozens of Great Grandmasters present were watching the Half-step Celestial God; instead, they all lifted their heads high, their gazes fixed on even higher and more distant places.

There, two blurry figures were confronting each other in the sky tens of thousands of meters above.

Even separated by more than ten kilometers, Qin Ning could still feel the terrifying oppressive force emanating from them.

The awe and chill that arose from within her were unlike anything she had ever experienced before.

While Qin Ning was completely overwhelmed, she suddenly sensed an invisible barrier materialize around her, and then, she found herself instantly enveloped by it.

At that moment, within the confines of the invisible barrier, before Qin Ning could even register her shock, an all-encompassing terrifying pressure emerged. In merely an instant, three-tenths of the meridians within Qin Ning’s body were severed, and the middle-aged man at her side immediately released his Innate True Qi, enveloping her within it for protection. Yet, even with the middle-aged man’s strength as a mid-tier Great Grandmaster, he was left feeling breathless under the oppression of the Power of Laws.

As the middle-aged man continuously channeled True Qi into Qin Ning’s body, she who had fainted from the ordeal began to slowly regain consciousness.

At this moment, Qin Ning weakly opened her eyes, looking confusedly at the sky above her. Being wrapped by the domain, her eyes suddenly widened. It was then she clearly saw, tens of thousands of meters above her head, a young man wearing golden glasses standing off at a distance against a middle-aged man with a face full of scholarly charm.

The two of them were situated tens of thousands of meters in the sky, where they had arranged a mysterious space that spanned ten thousand meters with just a simple wave of their hands. What level of terrifying strength did they truly possess?

At this point, Qin Ning’s eyes filled with bewilderment and helplessness, the day’s events having severely transcended her understanding and senses, overturning the principles of her twenty years of life. At this moment, her inner resolve was shaken, and even the Martial Path’s heart she had always firmly cultivated seemed to have crumbled.

If she was unable to solidify her resolve today, Qin Ning’s future could very well end at being an A-level Martial Artist, and there might even be a possibility of her strength regressing.

However, at this moment, the middle-aged man by her side could no longer afford to worry about these issues. With the opening of the terrifying domain, a power surpassing laws and the mundane world had begun to take shape within the space. At this moment, even as a mid-tier Great Grandmaster, protecting the two of them led to a grave depletion of his Innate True Qi. Now wrapped within the domain, it was virtually impossible for him to lead his Disciple away from this place.

Just as the middle-aged man found himself caught between a rock and a hard place, the domain that enveloped them suddenly shrank.

The previously ten-kilometer radius of the terrifying domain shrank more than tenfold. As the middle-aged man gasped for air, above his head, a brilliance comparable to the sun slowly converged.

That horrifying energy was tearing through space, threatening to obliterate heaven and earth!
