Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law

Chapter 292 Still Just a Bug

Everyone was too astonished to speak.

The third Seventh Rank had died.

And it was a Seventh Rank of the Fourth Layer.

Still, an instant kill. Was Xu Ping’an truly that terrifying?

Not only were the people from the distinguished consort’s side awash with shock and fear, but the Dead Soldiers under Qin Hanshuang were also staring, dumbfounded.

Is it really that easy to kill a Seventh Rank?

They themselves were of the Seventh Rank too.

On normal days, Seventh Rank Experts were the hardest to kill because they had numerous methods, and their Soul Power and True Elemental Power were both formidable, making it almost impossible to kill them.

Yet, in less than the time it takes for five breaths to pass since the battle began, Xu Ping’an had killed three Seventh Ranks by himself?

At this rate, anyone unaware would think he was an Eighth Rank Strongman.

"This is a Sword Array, an extremely powerful Sword Array. Just now, Xu Ping’an must have used this Sword Array to unite nine swords as one and swiftly kill his opponent," analyzed a strong cultivator watching from a distance.

That one sword earlier was too fast, so fast that it filled them with a suffocating fear.

"This Sword Array probably hasn’t been fully unleashed yet, otherwise, it would be invincible under the Eighth Rank," lamented a Seventh Rank Peak Expert.

"Mm, after all, Xu Ping’an is only at the Fifth Rank; his amount of True Yuan is limited. Just now, he probably exerted half the Sword Array’s power, but even so, his move could kill anyone below the Seventh Layer Seventh Rank," another expert said.

"But that one sword must also have caused a huge consumption of True Yuan. Xu Ping’an’s True Yuan must be almost exhausted by now," someone commented.

The others nodded in agreement.

Although Xu Ping’an’s action had shocked everyone, his situation was now the real danger.

The individuals from the distinguished consort and the Tiankui Sect, after overcoming their shock, also reacted.

"Quick, he is running out of steam. Do not hold back any longer; break through this combined formation at once, and kill Xu Ping’an first," the middle-aged beauty immediately yelled furiously.

Xu Ping’an had killed three Seventh Ranks.

Even if this battle were to be won, she would be scolded upon her return.

The only solution now was to kill Xu Ping’an.

In an instant, the middle-aged beauty’s gaze toward Xu Ping’an turned extremely vicious.

"Xu Ping’an, are you alright?" Qin Hanshuang immediately flew over and asked anxiously.

Xu Ping’an’s complexion was somewhat pale, and he seemed somewhat weak.

His True Yuan was extremely unstable, clearly showing the great consumption he had just experienced.

"I’m fine, it’s just that the consumption was somewhat large," Xu Ping’an grinned and directly stuffed a handful of elixirs into his mouth.

Qin Hanshuang was flabbergasted.

She saw clearly; those were all Sixth Rank Elixirs.

If it were her, she would need several days to absorb one elixir.

But Xu Ping’an had just swallowed more than a dozen in one go?

Had he gone mad?

Wasn’t he afraid of bursting from the inside?

Xu Ping’an, however, ignored Qin Hanshuang’s shocked gaze and started to run the Chaotic Reversal Scripture, frantically absorbing the power of the elixirs.

Within his body, the power of more than a dozen Sixth Rank Elixirs kept exploding.

Qin Hanshuang could even hear the thunderous roaring from inside Xu Ping’an’s body.

It was the sound of True Yuan being so rich that it was exploding.

Qin Hanshuang was dumbstruck.

Yet, Xu Ping’an seemed like nothing was wrong, rapidly converting this power into True Yuan.

After the refining of the Life-Death Reversal Blood Pill, Xu Ping’an’s physical strength had already reached a terrifying level.

The power from the explosion of these elixirs couldn’t hurt him at all.

His absorption speed of the Chaotic Reversal Scripture was also incredibly terrifying.

In just ten breaths, Xu Ping’an’s True Yuan had already recovered by half.

"Is he... even human?" Qin Hanshuang widened her eyes in shock.

Now she somewhat understood why she had lost to this person.

This person was simply a beast from ancient times.

"Boom!"

Just then, a loud explosion sound came from afar.

"Uncle Hong and the others can’t hold on any longer," Qin Hanshuang immediately frowned and said.

In the distance, the formation of the Silver Armored Dead Soldiers had been breached.

They were being suppressed relentlessly by their opponents, with three out of the seven already injured, one of whom was quite severely wounded and at risk of falling at any moment.

Xu Ping’an’s brow also furrowed.

```

The members of the Tiankui Sect exerted their strength and summoned their puppets.

These puppets had combat power that was extremely formidable, equivalent to Seventh Rank Experts.

Adding to their own numbers, originally twelve, now with five Seventh Rank Puppets.

The Silver Armored Warriors were essentially facing seventeen Seventh Rank Experts.

Therefore, for the Silver Armored Warriors to have held out for so long was already quite extraordinary.

"I’ll help them, you step aside," Xu Ping’an said as he threw down those words and immediately charged into the fray.

Xu Ping’an suddenly appeared in front of a Seventh Layer Fifth Realm female Cultivator.

His physical strength burst to its limit, fusing both thunder and metal attribute True Yuan, concentrating them onto his fist.

At the same time, the fragments of the Dao Laws erupted, and the strength in his arm was immensely fortified in an instant.

All his power was channeled into the Black Nether gloves.

In an instant, Xu Ping’an’s strength reached the Power of Three Dragons.

Not only that, but Xu Ping’an also used the Heaven Peering Mirror.

"Buzz!"

The Seventh Rank Cultivator wanted to defend herself, but under the influence of the Heaven Peering Realm, she was stunned for a moment.

"Boom!"

Xu Ping’an punched out and instantly blew the female Cultivator’s head to pieces.

Another one dead?

So fast!

The onlookers from a distance were all shocked and dismayed.

Xu Ping’an’s killing of Seventh Rankers was like slaughtering dogs.

The Silver Armored Warriors were also dumbfounded.

They had fought until now and hadn’t killed a single one.

Xu Ping’an arrived and immediately killed one?

This speed could only be described as terrifying.

The Silver Armored Leader who had previously looked down on Xu Ping’an now regarded him with solemn respect.

It turned out that Xu Ping’an’s confidence was not in some reinforcements, but in himself.

"Humph!"

But Xu Ping’an was not invincible, as he killed that female Cultivator.

He was caught off guard by a strike from a Tiankui Sect Cultivator, a punch to the back.

"Boom!"

The terrifying force instantly sent Xu Ping’an flying, crashing heavily onto the ground.

The power was horrifying, exploding upon his back, immediately swelling a large bruised area.

If not for Xu Ping’an’s spine being made of the Thunder Devouring Sword, that punch would have shattered it completely.

The force of this punch was probably no less than the Power of Eight Dragons.

"Seventh Layer Eighth Realm," Xu Ping’an climbed out of the rubble, feeling like his body was almost falling apart.

According to Xu Ping’an’s estimation, every increase in layer for a Seventh Rank Cultivator added the Power of One Dragon.

The maximum power he could unleash was roughly the Power of Three Dragons when going all out.

Of course, with his multitude of techniques and taking advantage of the Heaven Peering Realm and Black Nether gloves’ powers, he could exploit weaknesses to kill those of Fifth and Sixth Realms.

But against a Seventh Layer Eighth Realm, he seemed somewhat powerless.

"Hmph, brat, do you think you’re invincible among the Seventh Rank just because you’ve killed a few of the lower and middle layers? Today, I will let you witness the combat power of the higher layers of the Seventh Rank," the Seventh Layer Eighth Realm Cultivator sneered.

A Puppet flashed by his side, appearing directly in front of Xu Ping’an.

With a punch, the Puppet’s power was dominantly overwhelming.

This punch was at least the Power of Five Dragons.

Xu Ping’an hurriedly executed the Thunder Imperial Nine Heavens to dodge.

The Puppet, being made from a Superior Grade Spiritual Instrument, completely disregarded Xu Ping’an’s attacks and went on a frenzied assault.

For a time, Xu Ping’an could barely cope, only managing to dodge desperately.

However, the Seventh Layer Eighth Realm Opponent did not idle, seizing the chance when Xu Ping’an dodged.

Another claw strike tore five deep bloody furrows across Xu Ping’an’s chest.

On the other hand, the seven Dead Soldiers were also completely suppressed by the remaining ten, with one of them severely injured and coughing up blood, on the verge of collapsing at any moment.

Everyone shook their heads in sighs of regret.

Although Xu Ping’an was capable of killing some lower and middle-layer Seventh Ranks, without the combat power of the higher layers of the Seventh Rank, it was still a dead end.

"Overestimating one’s abilities, truly thinking oneself capable of defying the heavens," a middle-aged beautiful woman sneered, looking at Xu Ping’an with the same indifference as one would look at an insect.
