The Immortal Taoist Chapter 206

Who is a cat and who is a mouse?

"Sword s.p.a.ce Lock!"

Ninth Elder roared loudly, and then ferociously brandished his black iron sword. With a wave of her sword, dense True Qi formed many chains that locked Ling Dao's location. Ling Dao's entire body was locked inside.

He simply would not do something like this if it was only to deal with an ordinary Rus.h.i.+ng the Sky Stage pract.i.tioner. However, the power that Ling Dao displayed didn't seem like that of a Rus.h.i.+ng the Sky Stage warrior at all, but rather, a air defence warrior. Fortunately, the Ninth Elder felt that Ling Dao was much weaker than him.

To Ninth Elder who had the strength of nine young dragons, black iron sword were as light as a feather. He waved her black iron sword and felt no pressure at all. The black iron sword did not have a sword blade, nor a sword tip, but it still possessed an extremely tyrannical destructive power.

"Let's see how you will escape then!"

The chains intersected and locked down Ling Dao's position. To Patriarch Nine, these chains were not obstructed at all. After all, they were condensed from his own Zhen Qi. After this sword strike, even if Ling Dao did not die, he would at least be heavily injured.

"Just based on these chains of true qi, they seem to trap me?"

After using the Eight Steps of Star Chasing, Ling Dao's body instantly disappeared from the outside, and his true energy chains did not trap him. Ninth Elder never expected such a situation to occur, his black iron sword slashed fiercely on the ground.

A deep crater instantly appeared on the ground that the black iron sword was slas.h.i.+ng at. From the long ravine, spring water gurgled out. When the Ninth Elder thought that a slash that could heavily injure Ling Dao landed on empty air, he was naturally a little angry.

"Hiding is nothing. Boy, if you really have the ability, then fight me fair and square!"

Even the Ninth Elder couldn't help but sigh in his heart at the speed at which Ling Dao had exploded forth. If Ling Dao kept on dodging, Ninth Elder would not have the confidence to take Ling Dao down in a short amount of time.

"Don't you blush when you say that? A person over ten years old is actually going to fight a young man fair and square? "

However, Ling Dao's words caused a flash of anger to appear in Ninth Elder's eyes, but it was quickly covered up by him. Besides Patriarch Nine, there were three other Patriarchs present. And from the looks of it, they were more powerful than Patriarch Nine.

Until now, Ling Dao still did not unleash his strongest power, nor did he use his Carefree Sword or the broken Human Emperor Sword. If he displayed his strongest battle prowess, the four elders on the field would definitely join hands. Even he did not know if they would be able to deal with him then.

The only thing he could do right now was to show weakness to the enemy, but at the same time, he couldn't act too weak. The elders in front of him naturally knew who he was, so they definitely had some understanding of his battle prowess. That was why he acted like this. Not only did it cause the four clan elders to be shocked, but it also made them feel like Ling Dao was not their opponent.

"If you can keep up with me, I'll fight you fair and square!"

Just as Ninth Elder was about to reply, Ling Dao spoke out again. After he finished speaking, Ling Dao then activated Eight Steps of Star Chasing and left the place with the fastest speed possible. He could already see what these elders were doing, so he naturally wouldn't stay here.

Ling Dao naturally knew about the Spirit Gathering Flower; the one on the true spirit peak was obviously about to go through the third cycle. The reason these Heavy Sword Sect Elders were staying here, was probably to harvest the Spirit Gathering Flowers. As long as he left this place, the four elders could not all chase after him. After all, they still had to send people to guard the Spirit Gathering Flower to prevent any mistakes.

This was the reason why he held back his strength previously. The four clan elders thought that if they could defeat Ling Dao, there was no need to kill him all at once. Even Ling Dao was not a match for the Ninth Elder, so he was definitely not their match either.

"Ol 'Three, Ol' Five, Ol 'Seven, wait here. I'll be right back!"

After greeting the other three elders, the Ninth Elder rose into the air and chased after Ling Dao. In any case, in his opinion, Ling Dao was not his match, so there was naturally no need to worry.

It had to be said that Ling Dao's grasp of the human heart was extremely terrifying. These four elders of the Heavy Sword Sect, having lived for so many years and experienced so many things, were no fools. Unfortunately, they were still tricked, and it was not that they were stupid, but Ling Dao's fighting strength had already exceeded their imagination.

Ling Dao was only at the Rus.h.i.+ng the Sky Stage after all, and to be able to possess the fighting strength he had displayed was already an extremely extraordinary thing. In any case, the four elders had never seen a genius like him before. Naturally, they would not think that Ling Dao's true combat power was even stronger than what he displayed.

"Seventh Brother, you go and take a look, just in case something happens to Ninth Brother." The matter with the Spirit Gathering Flower cannot be lost. The fifth brother and I will guard here and not go anywhere! "

The Third Elder glanced at the Spirit Gathering Flower and then ordered. As the Third Elder, his status was naturally higher than the other three elders. Hearing his words, Fifth Elder and Seventh Elder both nodded.

"Ol 'Nine, you're being too cautious. What can Ol' Nine do to kill a Rus.h.i.+ng the Sky Stage Ranker?"

Seventh Brother pouted his lips, but he still rose into the air and chased after Ling Dao and Ninth Elder. However, Patriarch Seven was not in a hurry to chase them. He was leisurely chasing them. He was not worried about Patriarch Nine at all.

"Ol 'Five, do you think there might be a trap ahead?"

The Third Elder frowned, as he had a bad feeling about this. He was cautious by nature, otherwise, Zhong Taicang would not let him handle the matter of the Three Revolutions Spirit Gathering Flower.

"Ol 'Nine, you're really thinking too much. Even if the Sky-splitting Sword Sect's sect master were to ambush us from the front, what can she do to Ol' Nine? What's more, there was still Seventh Bro. Could there be any danger? Moreover, did their Sky-splitting Sword Sect really want to be razed to the ground? "Otherwise, where would you have the guts to ambush us?"

Fifth Elder's words caused the Third Elder to relax his brows. Perhaps he really was overthinking it. With Ninth Elder and Seventh Elder chasing after Ling Dao, there would indeed be no mistakes. They just needed to wait for Ninth Elder's good news.

"Is this a game of cat and mouse?"

Ninth Elder, who was still in mid air, looked down at Ling Dao with a face full of ridicule. He did not go down to kill, but deliberately followed behind Ling Dao. Especially the terrified expression on Ling Dao's face, it gave him an even greater sense of accomplishment.

He had the mentality of a cat catching a mouse, and continuously teased Ling Dao. From time to time, he would let out a sigh in midair, purposely allowing Ling Dao below him to find him. When he was about to catch up to Ling Dao, he would once again slow down.

"We'll see who's the cat and who's the mouse in a moment!"

Ling Dao was not moving forward in a straight line, but was moving in a roundabout way. He was only being chased by a Ninth Elder, so he was not worried at all. As long as the other Elders didn't follow, then he had a great confidence that he would be able to kill the Ninth Elder.

"Whooosh."

When he was far enough from the top of the mountain, Ling Dao stopped running and sat on the ground to catch his breath, pretending to be extremely tired. If an ordinary Rus.h.i.+ng the Sky Stage pract.i.tioner were to run so far at their fastest speed, they would definitely be this tired. Ninth Elder naturally would not suspect anything.

"What's wrong, kid? Can't you run anymore?"

Ninth Elder landed on the ground and slowly walked towards Ling Dao. There was still a mocking smile on his face, like a hunter looking at his prey. As long as he killed Ling Dao, he would be able to obtain the rewards of ten thousand Low grade spirit stone.

Of course, Patriarch Nine could not keep it for himself. He would definitely give it to the other three Elders. Otherwise, Seventh Elder would not leisurely follow behind them. Most likely, he would have chased after them at his fastest speed and killed Ling Dao together with Ninth Elder.

"Even if I can't run anymore, I still have strength …" "Kill you!"

When the Ninth Elder was less than three meters away from Ling Dao, Ling Dao's tone changed. He was holding onto a Carefree Sword as he activated the Rus.h.i.+ng Thunder Shadowless Sword, and with his fastest speed, he thrust his sword towards the Ninth Elder's chest.

"You!"

Even the Ninth Elder felt his scalp tingle when he saw such a swift strike. Originally, he thought that Ling Dao was too tired to fight back, but who would have known that Ling Dao would still be able to unleash such a terrifying sword strike. This sword strike, Ling Dao did not hold back at all, it was stronger than when he was at the top of the mountain fighting with the Ninth Elder.

However, Ninth Elder had also been through hundreds of battles, and at the most critical moment, she still instantly raised his black iron sword and blocked the attack in front of her chest. This was the benefit of a black iron sword. A sword body that was wide enough to completely block the Ninth Elder's chest.

Seeing this scene, Ling Dao's eyes lit up. If the Ninth Elder dodged as fast as she could, she might have a chance. To use a black iron sword like this to block his chest was simply courting death.

"As long as you block this sword, you'll be unable to withstand my counterattack later!"

Such a thought had already flashed through his mind. In the hearts of the Ninth Elder, she had already confirmed that Ling Dao's strength was far from his. Unfortunately, this thought quickly turned into a joke, because he no longer had the chance to fight back.

In front of the Carefree Sword, a st.u.r.dy black iron sword was as weak as tofu. The Carefree Sword instantly pierced through the black iron sword, following that, with an even faster speed, it pierced through Ninth Elder's chest, and the sound of a weapon piercing into flesh sounded.

"How is this possible?"

Patriarch Nine looked down at his chest in disbelief. There was a sword there. The sword tip had already pierced into his chest, ending his life. He slowly raised his head and saw the black iron sword in his hands. Unfortunately, there was a big hole in the middle of the black iron sword.

He thought that the black iron sword could help him block Ling Dao's sword, but he was wrong. The Carefree Sword was too sharp, the black iron sword could not block it. He still wanted to launch a fierce counterattack, but never thought that he would already have died under Ling Dao's sword.

"Killing you won't be a problem at all!"

If it was before, when Ling Dao had said such words, Ninth Elder would definitely snort disdainfully. But the reality was right in front of him, and this was how Ling Dao had killed him. In the end, it was all because he had overestimated himself and underestimated Ling Dao.

"Old Nine!"

Seventh Elder was still a Peak Imperial Sky Realm martial artist after all. Even if he was following them leisurely, at this moment, he was also chasing after them. However, just as he arrived, he saw an incomparably shocking scene. The sword in Ling Dao's hand, had already pierced the Ninth Elder's chest.

"That brat killed Nine? Are my eyes playing tricks on me? "

When Ling Dao was at the top of the mountain, the combat power he displayed really did surprise the Seventh Elder. But to say that Ling Dao could kill the Ninth Elder, it was simply an impossible feat. Even if it was the Seventh Elder, he didn't have the confidence to kill the Ninth Elder. How could a little Rus.h.i.+ng the Sky Stage like Ling Dao do such a thing?
