Chapter 1393: Chapter 0791: Better to Die Early Chapter 1393: Chapter 0791: Better to Die Early Chapter 0791: Better Die Early

Qi Tian had never had such a thrilling experience: being besieged by dozens of Gold Core Realm experts while several hundred other Gold Core Realm experts watched eagerly, eyeing him like tigers stalking their prey.

Qi Tian fought hard and faced grave danger. He had to unleash his full strength without holding back and sotis needed to rely on the Heavenly Dao Engine to enhance his power or speed. Only by doing so could he survive the relentless onslaught of attacks.

Even so, Qi Tian had several close calls where he nearly suffered injuries, and at one point, he almost got hit in a vital spot. Had the blow landed, he would have either died or been severely wounded.

Qi Tian wasn’t doing this for the thrill but to push his potential to its limits. If he were to use powerful artifacts like the Lustrous Sand or the Ghost Face Mask right away, there wouldn’t be much left for him to do. Depending entirely on external aids would make it very difficult for him to improve himself.

While Qi Tian himself found the situation incredibly tough and dangerous, others saw it differently, especially Emperor Zhi Wu, whose expression was terrifyingly grim. His son and grandson had just been killed by Qi Tian, and he was desperate to dismber Qi Tian into ten thousand pieces. After such a long and fruitless battle to take down Qi Tian with so many attackers, Emperor Zhi Wu felt it was a sha that couldn’t be washed away even by the waters of all rivers and lakes.

Emperor Zhi Wu bellowed, “Get out of my way, you fools, and let do it.”

As he shouted, Emperor Zhi Wu charged forward, employing a secret technique to unleash the full power of his Nascent Soul Stage flying sword and slashed toward Qi Tian.

Qi Tian thought to himself, “Not good,” and hastily dodged to the side, but it was too late. The sheer number of Gold Core Realm experts entangling him left no room to evade, and Qi Tian had no choice but to raise the Yonghe Stick to block Emperor Zhi Wu’s flying sword.

The flying sword struck the Yonghe Stick with a resounding impact, sending Qi Tian flying backward from the sheer force. Moreover, he saw a fragnt fly off the Staff; his Half-step Nascent Soul level artifact, which he had only recently acquired, was damaged in the clash with Emperor Zhi Wu’s flying sword.

Emperor Zhi Wu’s sword strike sent Qi Tian flying, causing an uproar of cheers. Although he appeared calm on the surface, his heart was filled with shock. That sword strike seed to give him the upper hand, but in reality, he was no better off than Qi Tian, suffering significant loss and a severe backlash. If he had to keep attacking Qi Tian with the sa intensity, he simply couldn’t do it.

Only then did Emperor Zhi Wu realize why Qi Tian had managed to establish such a formidable reputation in the Imperial Family Secret Territory in such a short ti; Qi Tian genuinely had the skills. However, if Qi Tian’s limit was only this, then how had he managed to kill Zhao Deyi? Qi Tian might very well be hiding his true strength, appearing weak as a strategy to lure him into a trap. If Emperor Zhi Wu took the bait and attacked hastily, he might fall into Qi Tian’s snare and end up being counter-killed. Emperor Zhi Wu would not make such a mistake.

Pointing his flying sword at Qi Tian, Emperor Zhi Wu shouted, “What are you all standing around for? Charge and kill him! Do I really need to take matters into my own hands?”

The Gold Core Realm experts, who had been re spectators until now, suddenly sprang into action, pouncing on Qi Tian like cats that had slled blood. This was no longer like before; previously, only a few dozen had been tempted by Emperor Zhi Wu’s promise of being appointed as a Marquis of Ten Thousand Households and had charged out. But now, it was almost a full mobilization. Except for the four Princes and a few Gold Core Realm experts who had not moved, the rest sward toward Qi Tian. They all could see that Qi Tian might have so tricks up his sleeve, but after the tussle with dozens of Gold Core Realm experts and getting slashed by Emperor Zhi Wu, he was likely exhausted. This mont was the perfect opportunity to kill Qi Tian, and the potential rewards could make anyone envious.

At this mont, Qi Tian wasn’t feeling great. The previous attack by a re few dozen Gold Core Realm experts was nothing compared to this. Emperor Zhi Wu was too strong; after entering the Imperial Family Secret Territory, he was the most powerful royal he had encountered, second only to Zhao Deyi.

When killing Zhao Deyi, Qi Tian had mainly relied on the Ghost Face Mask, Lustrous Sand, and the Heavenly Dao Engine, and he hadn’t done much himself, which ant he didn’t fully experience Zhao Deyi’s terror. But now, he was fighting Emperor Zhi Wu directly and could clearly sense how terrifying that one sword strike had been. If Emperor Zhi Wu continued to fight him in the sa state, Qi Tian didn’t think he could last many rounds without using his other trump cards, and he might very well be killed by Emperor Zhi Wu.

Qi Tian took a deep look at Emperor Zhi Wu. This forr Emperor of Great Zhao Nation, who had not beco a Prince after entering the Imperial Family Secret Territory but instead sheltered under Emperor Liuyong, painstakingly plotted for over a hundred years to reach this point. Such a cunning man, if allowed to grow, would surely beco a formidable enemy. Qi Tian didn’t want to trouble his future self, and the only way to eliminate this problem was to nip it in the bud.
