Before Qi Tian executed Sun Xingbiao, he had just advanced to the Ninth Level of Foundation Establishment, and by then he had already acquired the ability to kill Sun Xingbiao, who had advanced to the Second Level of Gold Core. Not long ago, Qi Tian executed another man, leading to a new growth in the Heavenly Dao Engine. This allows Qi Tian to kill any cultivator in the Second Level of Gold Core when he is at his limit.

Master Ju, the Chi Di National Master, was unaware of this. He only saw that Qi Tian was a mere Ninth Level Foundation Establishment cultivator. He had encountered too many of such young cultivators in his over two-hundred-year life span. He had seen many who amazed an entire generation or even multiple generations. However, none of them possessed a battle power comparable to that of the Gold Core Stage. The most impressive ones could compete with a cultivator of the First Level Gold Core with the help of some secret techniques and treasure tools. That alone was enough to make everyone in his generation seriously impressed and gain the approval of the elders.

Such people were not from the Cultivation World of Great Zhao or Chi Di. They were all top young talents Master Ju had met in Wanjie City. Those with such abilities have a considerable chance of becoming a Master in the Nascent Soul Stage, provided nothing untoward happens.

“Qi Tian, I have to admit, you do have some real skills to be able to stir up such chaos in Great Zhao. You were able to turn defeat into victory by utilizing every possible condition, disabling my two companions right off the bat. However, this doesn’t mean anything. As long as I stand, the one to fall in the end will certainly be you.” Master Ju said confidently.

“Let’s give it a try then.” Qi Tian took out his Red Hoop Stick from his Storage Ring, “Master Ju, for so many years, the Chi Di army has repeatedly invaded Great Zhao. Apart from the fact that Great Zhao is less powerful than Chi Di, your existence also plays a big role. You, being at the Second Level of Gold Core stage, can suppress the three Great National Masters of Great Zhao, you are indeed remarkable. However, your glory ends today. I will see you off properly.”

“Young man, you’re arrogant.” Master Ju stopped wasting words on Qi Tian, and took out a whip. It was not very long and looked just like the horsewhips commonly used by Chi Di Pastoralists. However, it was covered with countless runes. With a flick of his wrist, several whip shadows flew out from the whip, slicing through the air like sharp blades and assaulting Qi Tian.

Qi Tian’s expression changed slightly. He swung his Red Hoop Stick to block these whip shadows. A few ‘bang’ sounds echoed as the whip shadows were all accurately blocked by Qi Tian’s stick. However, this block wasn’t without cost – a few shallow marks were left on the Red Hoop Stick, which had never happened before.

“You do have some skills, but that’s all you’ve got.” Master Ju tossed the whip into the air and pointed at it with a Spirit Rune. Immediately, the whip shone brightly, emitting countless rays of light that transformed into whip shadows and filled the entire Defensive Barrier. Then, they converged together, forming a terrifying whip wind that swept towards Qi Tian.

This astonishing sight forced Qi Tian to focus intently. Master Ju indeed had some skills to be able to dominate in Chi Di for so many years and suppress the Cultivation Worlds of several countries, including Great Zhao, from retaliating significantly.

Qi Tian activated his martial technique and increased his speed to dodge the incoming whip wind.

“Qi Tian, there’s only so much space here, where can you run?” Instead of launching a second attack with his whip, Master Ju was carefully controlling the whip winds to attack Qi Tian, rather than dissipating or attacking irrelevant people. After all, he only had enough mana to support two or three more of similar attacks. If he launched another one, his mana would be nearly depleted. Engaging in combat with a master like Qi Tian without mana was akin to giving oneself up for death. He wouldn’t make such a low-level mistake.

The space within the Defensive Barrier was indeed small, and Qi Tian didn’t even expect to completely dodge the whip wind; that wasn’t realistic. The moment he saw the whip wind, an idea flashed through his mind. He noted the positions of the other two Gold Core powerhouses who were now hiding behind Master Ju, one of whom was healing, and the other tied up by his own rope, lying horizontally while reflecting on his life.

With a cold smirk, Qi Tian connected with the Divine Sense remaining on the rope. Under his command, the rope started pulling its original master away.

“Ah, save me.”

The injured Gold Core powerhouse reacted quite quickly. He had tried to cut the rope to free his companion earlier, but he failed. He had given up, not expecting Qi Tian to act again so soon. He hastily reached out to grab the rope but was a little too slow.

Under the pull of the rope, the tied-up Gold Core powerhouse, like a fired cannonball, crashed straight into Master Ju, who was right nearby.
