Vol.3 – Chapter 20 – Hai Lantian vs Space-Time Sword Saint


On the vast, empty snowfield.

On the Great Jin side, Li Guanyan and Wang Xianjia were present, while Dongfang Liuli sat in the imperial carriage floating in the air.

Meng Qingzhou was the first to step forward, directly challenging Alliance Leader Hai Lantian.

“I advise you, I am a half-step Heaven Supporting Realm. The Great Jin doesn’t seem to have many fighters. You should save your strength and start with the weaker ones,” Hai Lantian said calmly.

In an instant, the disparity in strength was clear.

The gap in power between the two sides was too great, and the numerical advantage was too obvious. Anyone could see that the Great Jin side was in despair.

“Hai Lantian, are you hiding your fear?” Meng Qingzhou planted his blind staff into the ground, crossed his hands behind his back, and faced hundreds of Morning Glow Realm Great Beings, saying calmly:

“Starting with your Alliance Leader, the World Sect Alliance’s fifty men, Ji Wushuang’s fifty reinforcements, over a hundred in total, I will defeat you all.”

“Let’s start with you, Hai Lantian!”

With these words, both the Great Jin and the World Sect Alliance fell silent.

The soldiers of the Great Jin Dynasty were shocked, unable to believe that Sword Saint Meng Qin would take on a hundred Morning Glow Realm fighters alone!

This was an unprecedented feat! Such arrogance, to think he could defeat a hundred in the same realm through sheer willpower!

“Can the Sword Saint really do it? No… I should ask, is this even humanly possible?”

“I think the Sword Saint is prepared to die. Such bold words, knowing the outcome today, he speaks them anyway.”

“If the Space-Time Sword Saint is willing to die heroically, we must follow, not letting the name of our blades fall into disgrace.”

“That’s right, we must follow the Sword Saint!”

However, on the World Sect Alliance side, the silence was even more eerie.

Hai Lantian’s eyes narrowed, filled with uncertainty.

What shocked them the most was that Meng Qingzhou, using only his Sword Sense, could accurately determine the number and distribution of the World Sect Alliance and Ji family followers, even guessing that Ji Wushuang was present!

Ji Wushuang, hiding in a shadowy area, seeing this, no longer bothered to hide. He walked straight to the front and said with a smile:

“As expected of the Space-Time Sword Saint. It’s said that when you first rose to fame, you were even revered as a Sage by the ministers of the Great Jin Dynasty, called the Prophet.”

“Truly impressive!”

As he spoke, Ji Wushuang’s aggressive eyes stared at the imperial carriage in the air, saying calmly:

“Could the Empress of Great Jin come out for a chat? I have a few words to say to you alone.”

Before Dongfang Liuli could reply.

Meng Qingzhou interrupted directly: “No need. Her Majesty has nothing to say to you. She can even guess what you want to say, nothing but threats and inducements, using the outcome of this battle to coerce, then agreeing to your demands.”

“Unfortunately, Her Majesty and I would rather die!”

“Of course, today, it’s more likely that it will be you who dies.”

With these words, Ji Wushuang’s face turned slightly ugly. He glanced at the imperial carriage in the air and shouted with a frown:

“Hai Lantian, what are you waiting for? Kill him.”

Hearing this, Hai Lantian could only sigh slightly and said helplessly: “Meng Qingzhou, since you know Ji Wushuang’s background, why not flee?”

“Temporary endurance does not mean submission. As long as the green hills remain, there will be no lack of firewood.”

Meng Qingzhou sneered:

“Should I avoid his edge for now?”

“Ridiculous!”

“Today, I will show you what it means to be invincible under the Sky-Reaching Realm!”

As his words fell, Meng Qingzhou took a step forward and instantly disappeared from his original spot.

When he reappeared, he was already in front of Hai Lantian. Facing the latter’s shocked and bewildered expression, his powerful punch was already infinitely magnified in Hai Lantian’s pupils.

Boom!!

With one punch, the dark clouds split in two, mountains and rivers reversed, and stars trembled and fell.

Hai Lantian didn’t even have time to react before he was sent flying thousands of miles away by the punch, smashing countless mountains along the way, his body lying in a giant crater with a fist mark sunken into his forehead.

“So strong…”

“Just a late-stage Morning Glow Realm, yet I couldn’t even take one punch from you.” Hai Lantian staggered to his feet, speaking with difficulty.

Hai Lantian’s eyes filled with ferocity as he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth:

“In that case, I will go all out to show my respect.”

Hai Lantian’s eyes emitted a green glow, his whole body shrouded in a hazy mist. In the blink of an eye, his injuries healed, and when he looked up again, his aura had climbed to its peak.

Thick, powerful vines, like dragons swimming, burst from beneath the snowfield’s ice, one of them dragging Hai Lantian back to the battlefield at lightning speed from thousands of miles away.

With the force of thunder, they charged straight at Meng Qingzhou.

“Eternal Evergreen Art—Jianmu Constructs the Sky!”

Thick vines, each spanning thousands of miles and hundreds of feet wide, stretched straight like hanging arrows, more like long spears, shooting from afar.

Dozens of vines, carrying destructive principles, drained the essence of mountains, trees, birds, and beasts along the way, even from a distance.

Trees withered, life extinguished, the path a scene of utter devastation.

Thousands of miles, reached in the blink of an eye!

“Forbidden divine powers, violating the laws of heaven and humanity, Hai Lantian, your sins have increased by one more.”

Meng Qingzhou said coldly, raising his hand to grasp a vine that had pierced through space, stopping it just three inches from his forehead.

Crack…

“How is this possible?” Hai Lantian, fully exerting his power, was horrified to find that no matter how he urged the Jianmu, it was as if it had encountered an insurmountable barrier.

Dozens of Jianmu vines were fixed in place by spatial rules.

Meng Qingzhou looked up, seeing what seemed like roaring dragon wood carvings, lightly tapped the ground, and ascended to the sky, his fist aimed at Hai Lantian’s face.

“Space. Confinement!”

“Time. Flow Speed!”

Hai Lantian tried to struggle but was bound by spatial rules and slowed by temporal rules. Under the double suppression, his every move seemed like a circus performance, more like an actor in slow motion.

However, in contrast, Meng Qingzhou’s fist accelerated by a hundredfold, a thousandfold!

This punch surpassed all before!

Directly piercing through Hai Lantian’s head! Red and white matter splattered everywhere! The scene was terrifyingly gruesome.

The headless corpse fell straight down.

Everyone widened their eyes, unable to believe what they were seeing.

“Did the Alliance Leader just die like that? A half-step Heaven Supporting Realm Great Being, in front of Meng Qin, seemed as fragile as a clay chicken or a pottery dog!”

“He’s not dead. A half-step Heaven Supporting Realm transcends common sense. Mere destruction of the flesh and divine soul won’t kill him. The Dao must be completely severed to truly annihilate him. But Meng Qin is too monstrous! Two punches to kill a half-step Heaven Supporting Realm!”

“In that case, Meng Qin is truly invincible under the Sky-Reaching Realm.”

“Haha, invincible!? Our World Sect Alliance has a hundred Morning Glow Realm fighters. No matter how invincible, he will still meet his end!”
