Divine King of Honour

Xu Nian writhed in agony on the ground.

The information transmitted into his mind by the Wentian Demon Sovereign was simply too vast.

So vast that Xu Nian's head felt like it was about to explode.

After a full four hours, Xu Nian managed to gradually digest these memories, and the pain in his head slowly subsided.

"Such immense information, and this is merely the foundation of the three chapters. If all three were to be infused into my mind at once, wouldn't my soul truly collapse?" Xu Nian exclaimed sincerely.

This Three Thousand God-Slaying Technique was indeed too powerful.

"Kid, now that you have acquired the Three Thousand God-Slaying Technique, I hope you will be extra cautious when you cultivate. If you are consumed by the killing aura, you will turn into a demon who kills without blinking an eye," the Wentian Demon Sovereign warned solemnly again.

Xu Nian nodded.

After accepting the Three Thousand God-Slaying Technique, he realized the fearsomeness of this technique.

The Three Thousand God-Slaying Technique could be considered a kind of Combat Technique for cultivation.

But it could also be considered an extremely powerful secret technique that assisted in cultivation.

And the method of cultivating it was through killing.

With each person killed, another portion of killing aura would be added.

This killing aura could be integrated into one's Spiritual Energy and Gang Qi.

It not only emitted a chilling might but also made one's attacks all the more powerful.

This secret technique did not offer much help for one-on-one combat.

However, for group battles, it was especially beneficial.

The more Xu Nian killed, the fiercer his aura would become.

In other words, the more courageous he would be in battle.

This was the very reason Xu Nian had the confidence to go against a million-strong army.

Of course, if a million-strong army were to utilize united combat strategies from the start, Xu Nian would not possibly be able to withstand it.

But if it really came to that, Xu Nian had his ways to deal with it.

He would then use the Space Power of the Undying Devouring Sky Beast to launch a surprise attack.

Directly scattering the opponent's formation.

With these thoughts, Xu Nian hesitated no longer.

He began to meticulously focus and familiarize himself with the operation of the Three Thousand God-Slaying Technique.

As days passed, Xu Nian's mastery of the Three Thousand God-Slaying Technique became ever more proficient.

It had to be said, the Three Thousand God-Slaying Technique was undoubtedly a supreme method of slaughter.

Just the basic operation of the technique had consumed nearly seven days of Xu Nian's time.

And that was due to Xu Nian's exceptional understanding.

Had it been someone else, they might not have grasped it even in seventy days.

…

During the time Xu Nian was in closed-door cultivation,

Inside the great hall of Shark Palace, the Shark Emperor was seething with anger.

"You're saying Xu Nian has been in closed-door cultivation ever since he arrived at the Demon Wind Cave and hasn't come out?" The Shark Emperor asked, looking down at Bai Ling.

"That's right, Your Majesty. That guy really hasn't come out. The middle-aged man with him comes out often, but Xu Nian has not been seen," Bai Ling responded respectfully.

The Shark Emperor's brows furrowed tightly.

He appeared deep in thought.

He had originally thought that Xu Nian would make a clandestine visit to Lie Tian.

But unexpectedly, Xu Nian had chosen to go into seclusion.

"Keep a close watch, especially on anyone going to the Demon Wind Cave. Make sure you note it all down; not a single person should be missed," the Shark Emperor ordered sternly.

"Yes!" Bai Ling replied immediately.

"How are things on Lie Tian's side? Any news?" the Shark Emperor asked again.

"No news. Lie Tian seems to have vanished without a trace; no sign of him can be found. Even after we've spread the word, the other three major Demon Clans have been talking, but Lie Tian hasn't shown up. Your Majesty, do you think he might have already left the Shark Clan's territory?" Bai Ling inquired with a frown.

The Shark Emperor's gaze was dark and foreboding.

That damn Lie Tian hadn't taken the bait.

"No, we'll just wait slowly. As long as that wretch isn't dead and Xu Nian is still within our control, Lie Tian will definitely show up. Keep a tighter watch," the Shark Emperor declared.

"Yes!"

Bai Ling immediately accepted the order and exited the great hall.

The Shark Emperor's gaze became as dark as could be.

Not only had he suffered a great humiliation, but now he hadn't even caught a glimpse of the treasure's shadow.

It pushed his suppressed anger nearly to its limit.

"Hmph, once I obtain the treasure, you will all die!" The Shark Emperor roared in fury, his terrifying aura causing the entire great hall to tremble violently.

…

At this moment, Xu Nian had almost finished his cultivation and stood up again.

Having mastered the Three Thousand God-Slaying Technique, he was now much more confident than before.

"It's time to meet this Lie Tian," Xu Nian said with a faint smile.

A pearl earring then appeared in his hand.

Yes, this pearl earring was exactly what Xu Nian had acquired from the Shark Empress.

At this moment, Xu Nian took out the earring with only one purpose in mind.

That was to lure Lie Tian out.

So, Xu Nian immediately used the power of his Spiritual Sense to send a message through the pearl earring: Lie Tian?

After Xu Nian sent the message, he didn't receive a response for a long time.

But Xu Nian wasn't in a hurry.

He believed that Lie Tian would eventually reply.

Indeed, three two-hour periods later, a message materialized from the Chuanxu Spirit Talisman and entered Xu Nian's mind.

"Who are you? How did you come to possess Shasha's Communication Spirit Talisman?"

Upon seeing the message, Xu Nian's face also revealed a brilliant smile.

"Who I am is not important. What matters is that Yan Sha is currently in my hands. If you want her to stay alive, come and meet me," Xu Nian replied through the talisman.

"Where are you?" This time, as soon as Xu Nian sent his message, the other party immediately responded.

"Your Demon Wind Cave!" Xu Nian answered through the talisman.

"Good, wait for me!"

Seeing the message that came again on the Spirit Talisman, Xu Nian immediately smiled.

Lie Tian was willing to do this much for the Shark Empress.

It was clear to see that he truly loved the Shark Empress.

Because as soon as he shows up, he would be captured by the Shark Emperor's spies.

And then, the Shark Emperor would surely send a large army.

In that case, even if Lie Tian had wings, escape would be difficult.

Soon, Xu Nian met a man at the entrance of the Demon Wind Cave.

A very tall and intimidating man.

Xu Nian observed this man and found that his cultivation had already reached the Pseudo Void Level of the Supreme Battle Emperor Realm.

His aura was exceptionally domineering and powerful.

It was clear that this person must be Lie Tian, whom the Shark Emperor had been searching for.

While Xu Nian was sizing up Lie Tian, Lie Tian was also observing Xu Nian.

Clearly, he hadn't expected that the person threatening him this time would be a human youth.

However, the presence of Xuan Hong made Lie Tian extremely cautious.

Obviously, he had discerned that Xuan Hong was no ordinary person.

"Where is Shasha?" Lie Tian, straightforward, asked.

He was here for the Shark Empress.

Thus, his first words naturally were these.

Xu Nian merely smiled faintly and answered truthfully, "The Shark Empress isn't here; she's still in the Shark Palace. I deliberately deceived you into coming."

Upon hearing this, a flash of anger crossed Lie Tian's eyes.

He then attempted to turn and leave.

"If you're content to live the rest of your life in such a sneaking survival, by all means, leave."

However, before he had even taken a few steps, an icy voice came from behind him.
