Monarch of Time Chapter 424

Chapter 423 Don't throw away your life

‘Senior brother Qiong’ couldn’t believe that 2 peak rank 3 Nascent Soul experts had died under the hands of an early rank 1 Nascent Soul stage rookie, let alone with both of them being completely incapable of even putting up a fight.

They didn’t even have enough time to resist before they were both killed in an instant.

Even for a genius like ‘senior brother Qiong’ who was one of the 3 strongest people in this alliance of disciples that attacked this city, this was still a shocking scene that couldn’t be explained.

Of course, although it was true that the black-robed old man had most likely underestimated Shun Long while the black-robed woman was actually fleeing, the result was that they both died in a head-on fight.

In the end, they weren’t even able to struggle before they were killed.

This was especially so for the black-robed woman’s death. Before ‘senior brother Qiong’ even had enough time to escape from her sandstorm, Shun Long had already taken her life.

For ‘senior brother Qiong’ who had already suffered under the 2 peak rank 3 Nascent Soul stage cultivators combined attacks earlier, seeing them getting both killed by an early rank 1 Nascent Soul stage cultivator one after the other made him shiver in his heart.

And yet, this wasn’t something that he could accept so easily.

No matter what, he himself was a genius who would certainly pass the Holy sect’s test! He was a peak rank 3 Nascent Soul stage cultivator! How could he allow anyone else to obtain the Holy sect’s token in front of his eyes? Let alone an early rank 1 Nascent Soul stage cultivator, he would even fight with other peak rank 3 Nascent Soul stage geniuses if he had to.

Completely oblivious to the golden-robed young man’s thoughts, Shun Long who was now standing in front of the black-robed old woman’s body, waved his hand and removed her spatial ring.

However, after checking the ring’s contents, he immediately turned his attention towards the black-robed woman’s corpse in front of him that was split in 2 halves.

Aside from 10.000 middle-grade spirit stones and a few middle-grade rank 5 ‘Qi replenishing pills’ as well as some healing and several ‘anti toxin’ pills, the black-robed woman’s spatial ring didn’t have anything else.

That meant that the Holy sect’s token was either on her body or it was hidden somewhere else.

At that moment, Shun Long closed his eyes before his soul sense erupted like a volcano as it completely covered the woman’s body.

As he opened his eyes, Shun Long stared at the bottom half of the black-robed woman’s body as he mumbled to himself

”There is actually something hidden here!”

Waving his right hand, Shun Long used the black, star-rank sword, to slice open a small hole near the black-robed woman’s butt as a palm-sized, golden-colored token with the character ‘Holy’ slowly revealed itself in front of Shun Long.

The moment that Shun Long was about to touch the Holy sect’s token however, he could feel an intense feeling of danger sprouting in his heart, while his golden eyes lit up with a bright azure light.

Another scene appeared in his eyes, causing Shun Long to give up on picking up the Holy sect’s token before he immediately dodged to the side without any hesitation.

Almost at the same time that he dodged, a huge flame pillar struck the spot that he was standing on, immediately enveloping the black-robed woman’s corpse as well as the Holy sect’s token.

As the flame pillar slowly dissipated, Shun Long saw the golden-robed young man, ‘senior brother Qiong’ standing a few meters away from him, staring at the Holy sect’s token on the ground with a look of fervor in his eyes, before he slowly turned his attention back to Shun Long.

There was a serious look in the peak rank 3 Nascent Soul stage expert’s eyes as he stared at Shun Long, looking like he was staring at another powerful peak rank 3 Nascent Soul cultivator instead of an early rank 1 Nascent Soul rookie.

Shaking his head, ‘senior brother Qiong’ took a deep breath before he said with a serious look in his eyes

”Don’t try and touch that token again or the next time it won’t just be a warning attack.”

Hearing ‘senior brother Qiong’s’ words, Shun Long stared at the peak rank 3 Nascent Soul expert in front of him without any change in his emotions.

He had already expected that there was no way for the ‘golden-robed young man’ to give up on the Holy sect’s token so easily!

Indeed, ‘senior brother Qiong’ stared at Shun Long with the same solemn look before he continued

”I admit that you are strong… at least strong enough for me to take you seriously, but the only reason that you managed to kill those 2 was thanks to me keeping that woman busy, as well as the old man not taking you seriously to begin with. If it wasn’t because he underestimated your speed since you are still at the early rank 1 of the Nascent Soul, there was no way that you would have even managed to harm him, let alone kill him. However, I’m not going to do the same mistake.

I am warning you because you are strong enough to do so, but don’t think that you can fight against me head-on!

I am sure that you are aware that I am not like those 2 scum that you just killed.

I suggest that you don’t throw your life away for a single Holy sect’s token. If we really start fighting, I will not spare your life.”

Shun Long slowly narrowed his eyes as he stared at the golden-robed man in front of him.

Although the man’s words were laced with threats left and right, it was obvious that he didn’t want to fight him head-on if he didn’t have to.

However, it was also obvious that he wasn’t going to give up the Holy sect’s token either.

In ‘senior brother Qiong’s’ eyes, Shun Long was a much easier target to deal with compared to the black-robed woman and the old man whom he was fighting against previously.

After all, no matter how strong Shun Long was, it was most likely only his speed that had reached the level of a peak rank 3 Nascent Soul stage cultivator!

Additionally, if it wasn’t because the black-robed woman knew that she had no chance of fight against Shun Long and ‘senior brother Qiong’ at the same time, she wouldn’t have resorted to fleeing in the first place.

Staring at the young man in front of him who was waiting for his answer, Shun Long ignored the 4 middle-rank 3 Nascent Soul stage cultivators who were previously fighting with each other and were now staring at the Holy sect’s token on the ground like a pack of wolves ready to pounce at it, before he shook his head a moment later, and said in a firm tone

”You are indeed stronger than the old man and that woman, but you are wrong about something. Even if the old man was on his guard against me, he would still have died all the same.

At the same time, I would rather not kill someone I have no enmity with.

If you leave, you can still find another city and have a chance of obtaining another token to pass the third test. However, if we start fighting, don’t expect to leave alive.”

Sigh

The moment that Shun Long finished his words, he saw the golden-robed man’s expression slowly darken before he let out a sigh.

Then with a look of disappointment on his face, ‘senior brother Qiong’ stared at him before he said

”I don’t have enough time to waste with you. Either turn around and leave… or DIE!”

Boundless killing intent suddenly erupted from the golden-robed man’s body when he uttered the last word, before an enormous flame pillar started to condense itself in the air around him.

Seeing that the golden-robed man had no intentions of avoiding this fight, Shun Long nodded his head without saying another word.

At this point, arguing with each other was useless.

Holding the black, star-rank sword with both hands, he closed his eyes for a moment as he infused his qi inside it.

The strange and intertwining black runes and patterns on the sword’s surface started to lit up, while sparks of lightning started to appear on the sword’s surface at the same time.

With a serious look, Shun Long then stared at the enormous pillar of flames above ‘senior brother Qiong’s’ head that seemed to have reached its peak, before he mumbled to himself

”Hopefully you won’t die from this. Thundergod’s slash!”
