Chapter 1780 Tian Nings Defeat

The might of Lin Mu's attack was astounding.

It was made by utilizing and stacking several of Lin Mu's abilities, thus its power had not only increased, but it had also multiplied!

Even if the Giant Armor that Tian Ning was using was a Dao Skill made by a Dao Embryo, it wasn't enough to bear the power of Lin Mu's slash for longer than a few seconds.

~BOOM~

The fist of the Giant was first to be cut before the body was severed in half!

"AAAAARGHHH!" A loud cry of pain could be heard coming from the giant, evidently belonging to Tian Ning.

It was clear that the man was injured. Of course, even if the giant had been cleaved in half, Tian Ning's own body wasn't killed. The Giant had taken the brunt of the attack, leaving only a part of the damage to be endured by Tian Ning himself.

Lin Mu watched as the form of the lightning giant faded away into sparks.

The body of Tian Ning was revealed to have a large cut that went from his neck all the way to his waist. It was continuously bleeding and his vitality was also unstable. Tian Ning's Immortal Qi fluctuations had also fallen by quite a bit, reaching barely five percent of what they were at the peak.

It was evident that not only had Tian Ning sustained a lot of damage, but he had also used up a majority of his Immortal Qi stores.

~THUD~

Tian Ning's body fell from the sky helplessly as he crashed into the ground.

~whoosh~

Lin Mu descended near him, the great sword propped on his shoulder. Even after having used the combination of several skills, Lin Mu was still fine. Or rather than fine, he was actually feeling better than before.

This was due to the fact that he felt his comprehension of the sword increasing!

'That one slash allowed me to learn more than what I have learned about the sword in the past year' Lin Mu thought to himself.

Perhaps it was the excitement of the battle combined with a tough opponent, that his potential was unearthed, allowing his comprehension to increase once more.

"It was a good fight." Lin Mu spoke, while Tian Ning took labored breaths.

Even if he had a bit of his immortal Qi left, he was in no state to battle. He was instead focused on addressing his most severe injuries right now.

"Haa HAA yeah" Still, the man replied to Lin Mu. "It as indeed a good battle." Tian Ning spoke.

"Well then do you wish to continue?" Lin Mu asked just in case.

"No I admit my defeat for now." Tian Ning was not a fool to continue in the current condition. 'He used such an attack and he's still fine there is no way I can go against him.' He thought.

Another thing that surprised Tian Ning was the fact that despite all that, Lin Mu still hadn't utilized his Body cultivation. All the skills that Lin Mu used were clearly based on his Qi cultivation base.

Tian Ning could also see that Lin Mu had used his Dao Skills to match him.

"It was stupid of me to ask you to give it your all I just might have died. Haha." Tian Ning laughed, as he realized the difference between him and Lin Mu.

"You're strong too. Your Thunderclap t.i.tan Form is very impressive." Lin Mu praised the man. "You've spent your time comprehending it, haven't you?" he suddenly asked.

"How could you tell?" Tian Ning asked feeling curious.

"That would be the only reason why your cultivation base hasn't increased." Lin Mu replied. "I don't think it would have been an issue for you to reach the Fifth Tribulation Stage of the immortal realm otherwise." He added.

"Ahaha yeah." Tian Ning replied while wincing. "I did focus on comprehending more. I thought it would be enough for me to reach at least the top five with that." He spoke.

"Mmhmm I don't doubt that." Lin Mu nodded his head.

He truly thought that, as Tian Ning's strength was easily touching the Sixth Tribulation Stage of the immortal realm when he was in his Thunderclap t.i.tan form.

"Still looks like my journey comes to an end here." Tian Ning said with a sigh.

"It is just a part of your journey." Lin Mu replied. "Besides, the goal of a journey is to learn from its experiences. You should have gained from this, haven't you?" he asked.

Tian Ning closed his eyes for a bit before opening them again.

"Now that I think of it I certainly have learned." Tian Ning answered. "I thank you" he said before breaking the ident.i.ty token.

~Crack~

Tian Ning's Body turned into a flash of light before being teleported out of the Spatial Plane.

"One down five more to go." Lin Mu muttered as his own body turned into a flash of light as well.

He traveled through the teleportation channel, allowing him a rare chance to look at the other spatial planes as well. It was only a momentary glance, but it did allow Lin Mu to learn a few things.

"Oh? Only two spatial planes are active?" The first thing Lin Mu discovered one out of the three other spatial planes still had the presence of people.

Unlike the previous stage, the spatial planes wouldn't close up entirely but would merely become inactive. During this time the spatial plane would recover from the damage.

But for Lin Mu, who had already infiltrated into the spatial planes with his immortal sense before, sensing the signs of people being there was easy.

'It should have been the Third Prince Feng Baxing that won probably his opponent was not his match anyways.' Lin Mu guessed.

The person that Feng Baxing had fought was a cultivator at the fourth tribulation stage of the Immortal realm. He might have been strong against others, but against the top contender, he might as well be some cannon fodder.
