"Old woman, what did you say? Ling Ying's father was the previous Saint Master?"
Yang Tian was also shocked.
It's important to know that Ling Ying was promised to him by Chen Tianbao, and they had already been together. But now, the old woman tells Yang Tian that Ling Ying is the daughter of the previous Saint Master?
"How is this possible?"
Ling Ying shook her head.
"Ling Ying is the previous Saint Master, and my mission is to protect Ling Ying. The previous Saint Master had an accident, which led to the birth of a new Saint Master. But the old Saint Master's wishes were not fulfilled because he was murdered. He wanted to overthrow the current Saint Master and have his own daughter replace him and enter the Saint Emperor Hall!"
The old woman said excitedly.
The crowd was astonished by the old woman's words.
Yang Tian glanced at Ling Ying beside him and couldn't help but ask, "Old woman, where is the old Saint Master now?"
"The old Saint Master is already dead. He was killed by this generation's Saint Master!"
The old woman said sadly.
"Oh."
Yang Tian nodded, understanding why such a person like the old woman would be by Ling Ying's side.
Is Ling Ying's existence meant to restore the previous Saint Master's reign?
"Old woman, everything you've said has nothing to do with me!"
Ling Ying shook her head.
All of this came too suddenly. Ling Ying initially intended to kill the old woman, as the old woman had killed her parents. But to her surprise, she turned out to be the daughter of the previous Saint Master?
"Ling Ying, don't doubt my words!"
The old woman looked seriously at Ling Ying.
"Now is not the time to talk about this; the most important thing is to escape!"
Yang Tian quickly said.
"That's right, escaping is the most important thing right now!" The old woman nodded and took out an old yellow-covered book from her bosom, and then threw it to Yang Tian: "Yang Tian, you're an Ancient Martial Artist; the task of protecting Ling Ying is also yours. Quickly practice it; it will make you stronger!"
Yang Tian caught the old yellow-covered book, noticing four words written on it: Heaven-shattering Palm Technique.
"Is this a martial technique?"
A trace of excitement flashed in Yang Tian's eyes.
Although he was an Ancient Martial Artist, he was only a loose cultivator and never practiced martial techniques.
Compared to the Ancient Martial Artists from the Dark Organization, he was truly nothing.
But now, with this martial technique in hand, Yang Tian could finally practice.
"Don't get too happy. You're not necessarily capable of practicing it. You're just a loose cultivator. It takes at least over ten years of practice to reach the level of martial techniques..."
The old woman coldly poured cold water on Yang Tian, seeing his excitement.
"Is that so?"
Yang Tian replied with a 'oh,' but his heart was full of anticipation.
As an Ancient Martial Artist, only after practicing martial techniques could one truly become strong.
If he wanted to confront the little loli outside, he first had to practice martial techniques.
Yang Tian opened the martial technique book in his hand, and a golden light rushed toward him, followed by a surge of massive Spiritual Breath.
Yang Tian felt extremely oppressed, unable to move his whole body.
"Any martial technique was created by ancient powerful figures, who often added their Spiritual Breath to suppress those who wanted to peep at it. If you want to practice it, you must face the powerful aura of the creator..."
The old woman said coldly.
But before she finished, suddenly she frowned.
Because she felt the pressure on Yang Tian suddenly disappear without a trace.
"What's happening?"
The old woman opened her eyes in surprise, staring closely at Yang Tian.
Logically, this massive Spiritual Breath was something Yang Tian could not resist. You must know, this Heaven-shattering Palm Technique was left behind by the thirteenth-generation Saint Master, with all the soul aura and Dharma Seal of the thirteenth-generation Saint Master.
"Elder, can Yang handle it?"
Ling Ying asked with some delight.
"I don't know how he did it!"
The old woman was surprised but did not speak further, staring closely at Yang Tian.
Yang Tian was very excited at this moment.
Just now, when that oppressive and terrifying aura pressed down on him, he was immobilized.
But the jade pendant on his chest absorbed the surging aura madly, and in just a moment, he became calm again.
Taking a deep breath, he opened the Heaven-shattering Palm Force in his hand.
This time, he could finally see the words and illustrations inside.
Each page had an illustration of a person performing one technique after another of the Heaven-shattering Palm Technique.
The Heaven-shattering Palm Technique had three forms in total.
The first form is the Heaven-shattering Strike.
The second form is the Heaven-shattering Destruction.
The third form is Heaven-shattering Despair.
When Yang Tian finished reading these three forms, his mind rang with a buzz.
He saw the figures of three martial artists constantly performing martial techniques in his mind. But when these three martial artists finished performing the techniques, Yang Tian's face darkened.
Because he felt that what the three performers executed was an Array.
This Array emitted beams of light, and in no time, it surged up and enveloped Yang Tian.
"You have been imprisoned by the Array of the former Saint!" The old woman's voice rang coldly: "I told you it's impossible for you to practice the martial technique. I needed twenty years of cultivation back then to practice... Ah..."
But soon, the old woman let out a cry of surprise.
She was shocked as she looked at Yang Tian.
Because she felt the bound aura on Yang Tian disappear.
"How is this possible? This martial technique was empowered by the thirteenth-generation Saint Master. How did you break it?"
The old woman stared intently at Yang Tian.
Hearing the old woman's words, everyone was excited: "So, Yang Tian has already succeeded in practicing it?"
At this moment, Yang Tian could no longer hear the cheers of the crowd. He had entered the world presented by the martial technique.
In front of him, the three martial artists' figures flashed and merged into one man.
But the man's appearance was somewhat blurred.
Bang!
The Holy Sword in Yang Tian's hand emitted a light, and the man's figure flashed and disappeared. Immediately, a massive image surged into Yang Tian's mind.
Yang Tian was able to quickly break the Array left by the thirteenth-generation Saint Master because of the Holy Sword in his hand.
Since Yang Tian recognized the Holy Sword as his master with a drop of blood, it occasionally emitted a beam of light.
And just now, it was the Holy Sword's light that broke the array.
"He is receiving the image of the martial technique, indeed, he has succeeded in cultivating!"
The old lady exclaimed in surprise, standing up.
Almost the next second, Yang Tian opened his eyes, a gleam flashed through them.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, Yang Tian flew up, showcasing the Heaven-shattering Palm Technique in mid-air according to a specific footwork.
Boom!
Yang Tian struck out with this palm, directly shattering the stone wall ahead into pieces.
"Such a powerful attack! What is happening?"
Everyone's faces changed, each staring intently at Yang Tian.
"Big brother is terrifying, isn't he?"
Wei Leng's eyes flashed with excitement.
"With big brother having such strength, we can survive and get out, thank goodness we followed the right person!"
Hao Ren also said excitedly.
"Great! We can finally get out alive!"
Even Wang Wu felt thrilled by Yang Tian's display, nothing is more important than one's life, and Yang Tian's strength can lead them out.
"Yang, you're amazing!"
Lan Tingting cheered, rushing into Yang Tian's embrace.
"He really has cultivated it..."
The old lady muttered, casting an appreciative glance at Yang Tian, surprised by him.
Even her, required twenty years of cultivation to master this Heaven-shattering Palm Technique.
But clearly, Yang Tian, this loose cultivator, only had five years of cultivation.
The old lady glanced at Yang Tian and then Ling Ying, suddenly making a decision...
She secretly took out a golden jade box from her chest and opened it, revealing a piece of Command Jade inside.
This Command Jade emitted a blood-colored glow.
The old lady carefully wrapped it with cloth, as if afraid of staining the Command Jade.
She glanced at Yang Tian, her decision firmer in her heart.
"Elder, what are you holding in your hand?"
Ling Ying suddenly noticed the Command Jade in the old lady's hand.
This made everyone else look over too.
Even Yang Tian looked at the Command Jade in the old lady's hand and frowned, wondering why he felt it was precious.
"It's nothing..."
Seeing the doubt in Yang Tian's eyes, the old lady smiled lightly.
She put the Command Jade away and said, "Yang Tian, if the Saintess comes in later, you and I can fight together! You previously didn't have the qualifications to stand side by side with me, but now, you have the strength!"
"Mm."
Yang Tian was also looking forward to it.
Wondering if his martial technique could withstand that little loli outside?
At this time, outside the flames.
The little loli opened her eyes: "Very good, there's someone inside from our organization, and this person should have taught the Heaven-shattering Palm Technique to Yang Tian. I can sense this familiar Heaven-shattering Palm Force."
"Saintess, how should we proceed..."
The nearby Blood Kill asked quickly.
"Don't rush, let's retrieve the Holy Sword from Yang Tian first..."
The little loli said lightly.
"Yes!"
Blood Kill nodded respectfully, but what made him frown next was that the little loli said to retrieve the Holy Sword, yet never moved, sitting quietly with a smile at the corner of her mouth.
Isn't she going to retrieve the Holy Sword? Why does the Saintess remain motionless?
Could the Saintess have some plan?
Meanwhile, inside the convoy.
"Yang Tian, when can we rush out?"
Chu Qian said, with a pale face.
Looking at the flames surrounding them, Yang Tian remained silent, unsure when the Saintess of the Dark Organization would attack, fearing these flames aren't easily broken through.
"Wait a while longer, we can get out soon!"
Yang Tian said.
"The old man might not make it..."
Chu Qian suddenly said.
Yang Tian heard this and hurriedly walked towards the vehicle, soon seeing Chen Tianbao lying in the seat.
Due to the Chen Family's affairs, Chen Tianbao had gotten truly angry, rushing out to attack the Dark Saintess, but was struck by the Dark Saintess with a palm. This palm left Chen Tianbao's chest bruised and dark, his entire breath weak.
"Didn't expect the Dark Saintess's palm to be so powerful!"
Yang Tian's eyes flashed with surprise.
He ran his Divine Sense probing, finding toxins filled within Chen Tianbao's body.
"Yang Tian, can the old man still be saved..."
Chu Qian said with a pale face.
"I'll give it a try!"
Yang Tian hurriedly ran his Spiritual Breath, pouring it into the old man's body, only to frown as he felt a suction force coming from the old man, continuously absorbing the aura within Yang Tian's body.
Yang Tian's eyes flashed with doubt, but as the Spiritual Breath poured into Chen Tianbao's body, greatly alleviating his injuries, he nodded.
Swoosh!
Yang Tian did not intervene, letting the Spiritual Breath within him flood into Chen Tianbao's body.
Who knows how long had passed, Chen Tianbao suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of Blood Aura: "Master, it succeeded, I have absorbed Yang Tian's life Spiritual Breath and can use it to cleanse the Soul Mark on the Holy Sword!"
"Old man, what are you saying?"
Chu Qian's face changed dramatically.
She suddenly recalled that the Dark Saintess had once mentioned that to cleanse the Soul Mark on the Holy Sword, Yang Tian's life Spiritual Breath would be required.
"It succeeded!"
At this moment, not far away, the Dark Saintess opened her eyes, her figure flashed, already heading over to Yang Tian...
