Chapter 270: Ending

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The second when Draconic Seven moved away from Ro Li, Tang Ling already sped up to him. With the buffer from the Level 1 general array, his speed that was already quick was boosted by 41%, making him run like the wind and was almost as impressive as a real Purple Moon Warrior’s Transient Step.

At the very next moment, Tang Ling appeared in front of Ro Xin. He threw a punch towards the man’s head who held her captive.

Draconic Seven’s men were only a little stronger than the elite warriors of the Hope Barrier and were probably just as strong as Orston or Yu when Tang Ling left, so they were not his match.

Before the man could react, a full-blown punch landed on his head and smashed his head into pieces.

“Aaah!” The blood splashed on Ro Xin, causing her to scream in shock.

Instantly, five to six bolts of lightning rained down on Tang Ling. It could not be helped because the damage he inflicted on the place was too heavy.

To her surprise, Tang Ling barely dodged the lightning strikes at strange angles. He grabbed her and skillfully tossed her 20 meters away, where it was relatively safer. He then kicked Ro Li’s backside and sent him away from danger.

A few more bolts of lightning came down. Tang Ling dashed towards Draconic Seven who had just got back on his feet from the quick escape earlier.

It was a fierce battle between the duo since Tang Ling declared that he would kill Draconic Seven and would not hold back.

The fight was inevitable. Draconic Seven was also quick and no longer cared about the punishment from the room anymore. He raised his hand and summoned the wind snakes that had constricted Ro Li earlier to him. The dozen wind snakes merged into a giant wind python and threw itself towards Tang Ling.

He could tell that Tang Ling’s speed was faster than his and the basic strength value was immeasurable but was by no means weak since he was able to smash the man’s head to smithereens with a single punch.

In all kinds of fights and battles, speed was the most critical deciding factor. Draconic Seven had to use his talent to defeat Tang Ling’s speed while the punishment from the House of Legacy continued.

Draconic Seven’s battle instinct was not all bad either, but he was not as strong as Tang Ling.

Even though Tang Ling was observing Draconic Seven’s talent for the first time, he was not surprised or scared.

Right before the wind python touched him, he abruptly backed off and before his feet landed on the group, he twisted his body to the left and sprinted towards the other direction madly.

Kakroom!

Two more bolts of lightning struck. Tang Ling was able to effectively dodge them while escaping the wind python’s attack. He seemed like he was barely able to dodge the unpredictable lightning.

Controlling the wind python, Draconic Seven saw everything with his own eyes and was utterly shaken. What kind of battle instinct was that? How much control does he have over his body to be able to effectively dodge the lightning strikes? Why does this seem so familiar?

Watching the scene reminded Draconic Seven of someone, an individual that he dared not even dream of surpassing—Tang Long.

After Tang Ling reached the left side of the house, he spotted something he knew the value of. Then, with the inconceivable control he had over his body, he stepped on his internal brake and slid to a full stop.

He turned around to Draconic Seven, revealing a sinister grin. Draconic Seven skipped a beat when he saw Tang Ling suddenly pitch towards the right. The wind python that was chasing him grazed his side.

“Sh*t!” Draconic Seven bellowed as he curled his hands into fists and tried to pull the wind python back, but it was too late.

With a violent hurricane surrounding it, the wind python destroyed plenty along the way, including the valuable item that Tang Ling spotted. Absolutely everything was blown away.

Draconic Seven’s expression changed for the worse.

“It’s only fair, right?” Tang Ling stood up, cocking his head sideways and dodging another bolt of lightning.

His destruction of the place was surely more massive than Draconic Seven, hence the punishment continued for him, but if he was able to drag Draconic Seven into the mess, then for the remaining time...

As he spoke, Tang Ling dashed towards Draconic Seven again. There was no ground for the latter to dodge anymore. All he could do was face Tang Ling head-on!

The two of them clashed in an instant and bolts of lightning rained down around them.

Compared to Tang Ling, Draconic Seven was unable to dodge the lightning with ease, but he still had to fight his foe face-to-face!

As a result, he could no longer spare his attention to controlling the wind python anymore as he was forced into close combat by Tang Ling!

In terms of basic abilities, Draconic Seven was stronger than Tang Ling for he had reached the strength of nine bulls and a tiger. Even if his speed and reflexes were a little lackluster, he should be able to match Tang Ling. Unfortunately, he was unable to do so anymore.

Who would have expected Tang Ling to have learned the body array in a short month and even drawn a Level 1 general array? Despite not being perfect, it was still a decent level nevertheless, which enhanced his abilities by a hefty 41%!

The increase was equal to boosting almost half of Tang Ling’s strength of eight bulls, thus greatly surpassing Draconic Seven’s nine bulls and a tiger’s strength.

On top of that, every other of his basic abilities of his was increased, or at least, temporarily. Coupled with his Precise Instinct that performed a lot better under the enhancement, should Tang Ling engage Draconic Seven in close combat, the former would surely be at a disadvantage.

Given the imbalance in strength, the two of them clashed for less than 20 seconds and the result was evident.

Terrified, Draconic Seven faltered backward and dodged the lightning bolts in a helter-skelter manner, desperate to flee.

“Do you remember what I said?” Tang Ling threw seven punches at Draconic Seven while asking.

Draconic Seven barely dodged six of the punches, but the last one landed on his abdomen powerfully. Tang Ling’s punch was not something he wanted to test out. The punch to his abdomen felt like he had been struck by a sledgehammer or a huge bull. In response, he could not help but arch his body.

Denying him the chance to stand, Tang Ling’s kick followed through like the wind and landed precisely on Draconic Seven’s chin, producing a clear crack.

A powerful thump later, two shards of teeth were spewed out from his mouth with a blood trail. Intense pain throbbed at his chin and he heard the icy words from Tang Ling: “I said I’d kill you.”

Tang Ling charged forward and rammed Draconic Seven’s chest with his shoulder. Draconic Seven felt like his chest had been run over as he could barely breathe. At that moment, another bolt of lightning came for him. He was forced to lie on the ground and rolled away to barely dodge the lightning strike.

Tang Ling also performed several dodging maneuvers to avoid three bolts of lightning. He then went up to Draconic Seven and grabbed him by the ankle. “The better you tell your stories, the more tortured you’ll feel before you die. I’m a man of my word!”

Right away, Draconic Seven’s heart felt nothing but bitterness. He finally understood why he would always be angry whenever he saw Tang Ling. It was because he believed that Tang Ling might really kill him.

Why did I believe so? Why?!

Draconic Seven could not figure out the answer even as his body was lifted up and was smashed to the ground.

Bang!

The powerful impact caused his head to experience heavy dizziness. While his world had been turned upside down, Tang Ling did not give him a window to catch a breath.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In less than three seconds, Tang Ling continuously smashed Draconic Seven to the ground for seven to eight times.

Lightning struck again. This time, three bolts zigzagged down. Tang Ling was like a furious demon as he grabbed Draconic Seven’s body to connect with the lightning bolts. Meanwhile, he slid aside and bent his body backward to avoid the remaining lightning bolts.

Three bolts of lightning landed on Draconic Seven. Having already been battered around like a ragdoll by Tang Ling, after being struck, he was completely immobilized on the ground like a lump of charred coal. No one knew whether he was still alive or not.

Tang Ling did not care about Draconic Seven as he started to concentrate on dodging the lightning.

Two minutes later, the lightning finally stopped.

Phew!

Tang Ling heaved a long breath and sauntered towards Draconic Seven. He peered down at the charred body with a superior gaze.

“I’ve given you two minutes to catch a breath. Come on. Stand up and fight me,” he sneered.

Draconic Seven’s arms barely moved while his charred face strenuously looked towards Tang Ling. “I-I don’t want to die.”

“Then?”

“Give...give me a chance to speak.” Draconic Seven saw a glimmer of hope.

Smirking, Tang Ling squatted down and uttered word by word, “I’ve said it before. I’m a man of my word, so I’m not giving you the chance to talk. You don’t want to die, but it’s not your decision to make. It’s mine.”

“I...” Draconic Seven got nervous and wanted to struggle as he mustered the last bit of strength in him, but a quick punch from Tang Ling hammered him precisely on the temple.

Splat!

A mouthful of blood shot out from Draconic Seven while his eyes, ears, and nostrils were oozing blood. After a few struggling breaths later, his body froze.

Am I going to die here? Me, one of the Stardust Sixteen dying here?! Have I always been the weakest among the Sixteen? Is my talent the most useless?!

Draconic Seven died with denial lingering in his heart. In order to accumulate his strength to achieve the perfect condition, he had never broken through the first genetic lock. He had not even become a Purple Moon Warrior when he died by Tang Ling’s hand. Tragically, he no longer had the chance to accomplish his goal because he ran into Tang Ling.

Tang Ling stood up, sparing a quick glance at the lifeless Draconic Seven before he looked at Ro Xin. He wanted to say something, but she ran over with teary eyes and hugged him tightly before she started weeping.

Fear had built up in her earlier, especially when Draconic Seven threatened her with Ro Li’s life. Her mind had been reaching the brink of collapsing back then, but she finally was able to calm down.

Tang Ling was stunned before guilt took over his heart. If he had not insisted on learning all the basic body arrays and on drawing the perfect body array at his current level, the brother and sister might not have faced such a pickle.

With that in mind, Tang Ling hugged Ro Xin single-handedly and tapped her back. He said softly, “It’s fine. We are safe now. We can go to Darkness...”

“Keep your perverted hands away! Let go of my sister!” Ro Li bellowed all of a sudden as he glared at Tang Ling, clearly angry about their intimacy.

“Are you really that dumb?” Tang Ling looked askance at Ro Li.

Blushing, Ro Xin freed herself from Tang Ling’s embrace. [Am I being too bold?!]

“Dumba*s!” Ro Li ran to Ro Xin and pulled her behind him as if he was her knight in shining armor.

Embarrassed, Ro Xin scanned around nervously and spotted Colo who was hiding in the corner in fear. She changed the topic and asked, “What about him?”

When Tang Ling spotted Colo, he went up to the scientist-to-be.

Colo screamed and started to mutter gibberish, “Don’t kill me. I’m a genius scientist-to-be. I’m useful! I’m not part of this, I did not do anything...” Before he could finish, Tang Ling stomped on his chest, ending his sinister life.

“Tang Ling, aren’t you being too harsh?” Ro Li grumbled.

Tang Ling looked at him to reply calmly, “We’ve been competing against them for so many days now. Didn’t you realize how cruel he is towards life? A genius scientist like him without any morals and respect towards life is dangerous. You have no idea how much danger he’ll cause to the world. And the danger that I’m referring to isn’t towards any particular person but to this world and this era.”

“Tang Ling is right,” Ro Xin agreed with him because she had also seen how ruthless Colo was. A person like him might even be more dangerous than Draconic Seven.

“We are done here. Let’s prepare our journey to Darkness Port.” Tang Ling flashed a smile.

It had been over a month in the Ninth Ruins, but now they could finally continue their journey! In addition to that, they could use the space formation!

With that in mind, as Tang Ling looked at that Universal Source Rock, Ro Xin said to him, “Shouldn’t we hurry up? The projection wasn’t here before this. It only appeared when Draconic Seven came in, and now with his death, I’m afraid...”

“No, it won’t disappear. There must be other reasons for it to stay.” Tang Ling stopped her from continuing.

Judging from Ro Xin’s brief explanation, he knew without even thinking that Draconic Seven must have perfectly cleared the third-level formation, hence triggering Joshua’s projection.

If Draconic Seven’s death would make the projection disappear, it would already be gone. Why was it still around? To start the space formation? No, that should not be the case.

Tang Ling pondered upon the question as he walked closer to the Universal Source Rock.

Joshua’s projection also turned around to him. “You surprised me.”
