Transcending Limits

Chapter 48

"Uuggh" Sheng Tian groaned in pain as the ground splattered with his blood.

Sheng Tian came from the 21st century of modern earth. It"s an era where a small knife cut was viewed as "painful".

Hence, he also developed a mental fear against the pain which would be caused by knives and swords.

Now a sword pa.s.sed through his chest, broke his ribs and pierced open his chest. His own blood flowed like a waterfall from his chest.

Sheng Tian felt a mad sensation of pain and howled loudly like a wounded beast. His eyes were filled with pain and rage.

Due to the sheer rage, he grabbed that sword and pushed it out of his body.

*THUD*

The person behind Sheng Tian was knocked down.

The ten devils were also rooted to the ground witnessing Sheng Tian"s condition.

Sheng Tian turned around to see "Qin Cheng" on the ground.

His hair and eyes turned pitch black. He was also a devil! In fact, he even seemed stronger than others!

Sheng Tian was shocked.

Did he become a devil or was he an impersonator of the original Qin Cheng all along?

Sheng Tian broke out in cold sweat thinking of the seriousness of the situation.

If even the Young Master of Qin Clan could be a devil, then who couldn"t be one?

Leng Yue Yan dashed to Sheng Tian, but she was too late to save him from being stabbed.

She quickly took out a pill and gave it to him and stood guard for him holding her sword at the Ten and "Qin Cheng".

She knew that for everyone here to survive, Sheng Tian is necessary.

Sheng Tian took the medicinal pill and in an instant, the bleeding of his wounds started decreasing at an alarming rate and the nearly dried up profound energy in his profound veins and dantian started recovering rapidly.

"Qin Cheng" stood up and sneered " Che, Do you think you can change something now? You both are already spent, haha. You could only be served as sacrifices. Be honored, soon this Mythical World would be ours. Hahaha~"

He clapped his hands as seven devils went to settle the twelve unconscious people back in their position and three people brought out the unconscious Ling Chen, Liu feifei and Qin Qing. They too were placed in the circular formation.

The profound energy links were formed again and the seal was being removed even faster than before.

Sheng Tian was madly using this little time to let Primal seed collect Profound Energy and heal his wounds.

With the pill and the primal seed, they were healing rapidly but he was still heavily injured.

An ordinary cultivator would not even be in a position to fight without a proper month"s rest if he was in Sheng Tian"s physical condition.

However, Sheng Tian"s mind was very clear now. Even though he felt very weak, he didn"t lose his will.

He replied to Qin Cheng arrogantly "What can we do? How about we make a bet on what we can do?"


Qin Cheng turned to look at him and didn"t respond.

Instead, he directly waved his hands and all the devils dashed to attack him and Leng Yue Yan.

Sheng Tian was taken back by this response, whereas Qin Cheng sneered: " Do you think I would give you the time to heal your wounds by hearing your nonsense? Die!"

Leng Yue Yan still had an icy cold expression on her face but in her eyes was a determination to live on.

Her death would cause too big of a disaster!

In essence, she was not living for herself but for others. That was until she met Sheng Tian and he gave her hope to live life to fight her fate and live for herself!

Even she didn"t know the true extent of changes he brought to her life!

Sheng Tian was having a hard time currently as his plan was being seen through.

Now, he couldn"t even use the Formless Void steps properly to hide!

In the end, he grit his teeth and brought out a pair of green coloured cylindrical objects out.

They were both the size of a palm, fitting into Sheng Tian"s hands.

Sheng Tian shouted to Leng Yue Yan, who was in a relatively better condition " Get next to me, now."

Leng Yue Yan was a bit taken back by his shout but developed a bit of trust towards him after they fought together.

Sheng Tian used a little bit of profound energy as he threw the green things at the upcoming devils.

Their speed was so fast that the devils couldn"t dodge them.

*BANG* *BANG*

Two loud Bangs sounded as a wave of tremendous profound energy erupted. Dust covered the entire room as a mushroom of smoke rose high into the air.

All other sounds were overshadowed by those two loud bangs.

The dust slowly settled as the smoke cleared revealing three figures standing.

Sheng Tian and Leng Yue Yan were standing next to each other. They were both covered by snow armors and layers of Ice Screens in all the directions.

And the last person was "Qin Cheng". He was using a profound energy barrier but it didn"t help the blood flowing down his lips.

All the other devils were on the ground. It would be apt to say "the body parts of the devils", since none of them were breathing.

The ground was littered with a smell of flesh and blood as gore, blood, limbs, and organs filled the floor. There were barely any corpse intact.

Sheng Tian who saw this all smiled.

However, he didn"t feel too good inside. It was one of the9 treasures from his inheritances. And it was only a one time use.

Having such powerful explosive meant having another chance to secure life in this cruel world. But he had to use it the same day he obtained it.

Now, including the armor Qin Qing was wearing, he only had 8 treasures. Thankfully, those explosives were really helpful.

Beside him, Leng Yue Yan was stunned at devastation of the floor and the sight of the corpses.

All of sudden, arrogant laughter sounded as "Qin Cheng" sneered "I bet that was your trump card, isn"t it? But did you think that their deaths can prevent your death? Hmph!"

He shot at them with his claws glowing black.

Sheng Tian was just recovering and there is no way he could be back to the peak in a span of few seconds. If it was so, then he would not even bother using the explosives.

He currently couldn"t face Qin Cheng. And the impact of the earlier explosion was clear as day. The floor was full of cracks even with the great quality it was built.

Sheng Tian got the explosive from an OverLord called "Old Grandpa Fart". He still remembered the description of the treasure clearly.

... ... ... ... ...

Super Fart of the Old Granpa: Compressed and Suppressed inside Old Grandpa for countless years when he was in seclusion, these farts are no longer ordinary farts!

These are Super Farts which an Ordinary human could only dream of but never produce. After being inside the Old Grandpa for so many years, these farts have become more and more powerful.

Finally, as their power reached an unprecedented level and the pressure they gave the old grandpa was so much that if he didn"t fart right away, he might explode due to his own farts!

But, how can a cultivator bend his head down to fate? He fought and fought.

Under the unbearable torture of gas, he grit his teeth and clenched his fist. Toughening his will and reaching the endurance level beyond Human limits, he didn"t give up as he continued to hold them in.

But alas, his farts one day became so powerful that he felt that he might destroy his house and kill everyone in his village if he released them. If he didn"t, then he would explode and die!

A true man doesn"t hesitate to sacrifice himself for a n.o.ble cause. Hence, he decided to give up on his own life as he walked away.

That day, everyone looked at him like he was a hero.

Yes, he was a hero!

He was sacrificing himself for saving them. If he is not a hero, then who is?!

All the neighbours of his cried and maintained silence to pay respects to his deceased soul.

Finally, one of the hot-blooded youngster couldn"t take it anymore as he shouted pa.s.sionately "You Farted to save us.! Fart Lord!"

Following him another youngster shouted "Thank you for your fart, Fart Lord!" one became two, two became three as three became all.

Everyone shouted, "Fart Lord, Thank you for your farts!"

At a distance away, the Fart Lord was sitting on a mountain, farting.

The mountain already started sinking into the ground due to the sheer pressure of the fart!

As Fart Lord listened to the commotion, he felt his eyes becoming a little wet. He wiped the corner of his eyes and muttered "Yes... I will fart for you. I will only fart for you. My farts, they...they have been worth it."

As he spoke those words, a look of determination appeared on his face as he grabbed two cylindrical green bottles each at the size of a palm.

He looked at them seriously and spoke slowly: "You shall carry the last of my farts for the younger generation and wait for my fated successor to inherit you."

He then stood up and placed the cylinders under him as he continued his holy job.

The green bottles became the myths of the Mythical World as their tales traveled from place to place and became a night time story for all the children of the world!

It became a legend many chased after their entire lives holding their farts putting their lives on the line!

Legends were typically like this. They would not be eclipsed with the pa.s.sage of time, but instead, they became histories that one tried to live up to.

... ... ... ... ...

*HISS*

Sheng Tian sucked a cold breath and stopped his breath as he recalled this absurd legend.

He looked at Leng Yue Yan and told her to stop her breathing till the gases disperse. Thankfully, she listened to him once without questioning.

"Qing Cheng" who was rus.h.i.+ng to him, also heard that. Feeling that there might be a problem with the gases in the room, he quickly stopped his breathing.

All hail the Fart Lord! Even after his death, he could control the tempo of a battle!

Sheng Tian just did what he did to distract Qin Cheng for a second before thinking of any alternatives.

By now, he is already feeling d.a.m.n tired.

The Cold beauty next to him was not in a good position either. She was definitely drained mentally and physically.

However, only she could fight Qin Cheng, who probably is the strongest of all the devils they fought till now.

Sheng Tian let out a sigh. It seems like they hit an iron wall.

Leng Yue Yan looked coldly at Qin Cheng.

She is the Ice G.o.ddess of the Mystic Ice Sect. Regardless of her fate, her master treated her extremely well.

There is no way she wouldn"t have any life-saving treasures. But they were far too precious. Once they are gone, they will be gone forever. This is the reason she was so unwilling to use them.

But left with no choice, she took out a jade slip, half the size of a palm.

It was s.h.i.+ning with faint blue light.

Holding it in her palm, she pointed it at Qin Cheng and recited an incantation.

Seeing this, Qin Cheng"s expression turned into one of amus.e.m.e.nt and seriousness as he said: "You are even willing to use your life protection seal, you must be desperate."

Sheng Tian cursed inside his mind "Dude, we are almost going to die if she doesn"t do something. We are literally dying for G.o.d"s sake and you have the mood for commentary? That"s why you are a side character villain! humph!"

Leng Yue Yan knew that once she used the seal in her hand, she would fall into a state of absolute weakness for at least 2 minutes and the seal would vanish from this world forever.

Now that things had come to this, she couldn"t back down.

They had only two people standing and Sheng Tian was still trying to recover.

Besides hoping that he would protect her in those minutes of weakness as her battle comrade, there is nothing she could do.

Sheng Tian more or less guessed the upcoming situation and moved closer to her.

Qin Cheng looked at the couple with disdain akin to a human watching ants.

Then he took out a bamboo pole.

It was similar to the one he used in the Forest of Bones to attack the duo.

But this one is longer, had black runes all over it and emanated a deathly aura.

Sheng Tian thought of the remaining 7 treasures and felt like throwing up.

Why is there no instkill weapon? And then he looked at one treasure. It might be useful now.

*SCREECH*

With a loud sound, a blue light encompa.s.sed the whole room as an Ice Phoenix phantom appeared in the air.

In fact, it is only head of the Phoenix.

The cry of the Ice Phoenix shook hearts and trembled souls.

At the same time, a dark energy appeared in the room. It was incompatible with the Ice Energy of the Phoenix and fought for dominance.

The next thing they knew, the Phoenix head clashed with a Dark cl.u.s.ter of energy.

The shock waves destroyed the Walls of the room, all the way to the entrance of the Hall of Inheritance.

The blown out smoke settled and a glowing blue barrier was seen.

Inside the barrier, Sheng Tian and Leng Yue Yan were trying to stand.

Leng Yue Yan"s face was pale and her body was trembling continuously.

Sheng Tian was trying to recover fast as the barrier was fading by second.

On the other side, Qin Cheng was lying on the ground with bloodied wounds and mutilated body.

He was huffing and puffing as his internal organs were blasted to pieces and blood was leaking from all the corners of his body.

When he looked at Sheng Tian and Leng Yue Yan standing, he laughed maniacally and incoherently spoke "Huh...It"s not life protection, I didn"t think you would have ..Ice Phoenix"s Blessing!... I lost but you won"t win..hahah!"

Then under the gazes of the duo, he burned off his blood essence and forcefully used his movement art to enter the circular formation.

Sheng Tian guessed what was about to happen and dashed out.

*BOOM*

He was knocked back by the barrier which would still last for one minute.

This is one of the 9 Treasures he had.

It is also a one time use barrier.

It can protect from any attack below Heaven realm.

It is simply too d.a.m.n precious.

That is also the reason Sheng Tian was so unwilling to use it.

But when he saw the magnitude of the energy levels earlier, he didn"t hesitate to put on the barrier. It saved their lives.

What he didn"t understand was why did this girl do something so crazy?

At the crucial time, she couldn"t even set up a barrier and what would happen if his barrier failed?

Isn"t this act of her as good as using her own token to kill herself?

Poor Leng Yue Yan, she didn"t expect Qin Cheng to have something which could counter her Phoenix Protection.

If Qin Cheng simply tried to fight, it would have been simply his death and everything in the way would be destroyed. Even with all the destruction, with it being directed opposite from them, she guessed that Sheng Tian"s barrier would hold them up.

Never did she think that Qin Cheng would have something so terrifying. This led to the collision of the powers between them and the shock waves were enough to take their lives. Thankfully, Sheng Tian had something up his sleeves.

Qin Cheng dropped into one of the circular seats.

With his broken bones, ruptured internal organs, he had no way to sit. He has only one path: Death.

Even so, he wasn"t willing to forsake his mission. He was alive from the blast earlier because of his own attack and the precious barrier he was given due to his position in the devil hierarchy. Even that didn"t manage to change his fate.

He looked savage as he poured all the profound energy, blood energy, and life force into the red box without a shred of hesitation.

"f.u.c.k!" Sheng Tian cursed for the Nth time as he tried to get out of the barrier. But it didn"t budge an inch. It is stated that once used, the barrier would stay for 1 full minute. 1 minute means 1 minute.

Sheng Tian didn"t stop his attacks. He used his physical strength to fullest and even his sword arts.

He is currently not at his peak and is only able to exert 20% of his strength after some recovery.

Leng Yue Yan, next to him, had no power to help him.

She drained all her mental and profound energy to activate the Phoenix"s protection and is only trying hard to not pa.s.s out. But her eyelids slowly started feeling heavy.

"F*ck this barrier master! Why did he have to design it this way? The ones inside can"t get out just like the ones outside can"t get in. This piece of s.h.i.+t. It is now leading me to death.

If I do die successfully, I will kill that b.a.s.t.a.r.d in h.e.l.l!" Sheng Tian really wanted to kill that b.a.s.t.a.r.d for coming up with this stupid design of a barrier.

Shouldn"t barriers be flexible and easily customized?

What happened to the product design?

Why the f*ck did this have to be the only barrier talisman I had?

He complained in his mind as he attacked the barrier with each pa.s.sing second.

Finally, what felt like an eternity has pa.s.sed.

And just as the barrier was about to disappear, Qin Cheng"s body on the circular seat transformed to dust and the red box broke with its pieces scattering all over the room.

A huge pressure descended on the entire room as an arrogant voice sounded " Hahaha, I, Blood Wolf am back!"

Sheng Tian cursed "Roll back. No one needs you, old foggy!"
