It was at this very moment that the blacked robed man no longer seemed human. His aura sought to overwhelm all creations with domination. As if a godly being descended to the mortal world to claim the throne for himself. His aura filled with majestic sword intent shook heaven and earth. And his gaze alone could cut the seas in half.
The elder of the Xiao Clan felt this compelling aura was so similar to the almighty being that kept the Xiao and Ming Clan in place. Now he was feeling the same thing that almost forced him to surrender from the enemy clan his clan had been feuding for years!
Bitterness and despair gripped the Xiao Clan elder's heart. He knew way before the fight began that he was no match. Yet, he still had to fight to protect his clan!
He was the only one left strong enough to stall the black robed man. Everyone else was dead fighting the latter. Only he, the previous clan head. Was strong enough to battle a Divine Level Expert with his Nascent Soul Cultivation base.
Sadly, he thought too highly of himself. The Divine Level Realm was just too profound and powerful. And with a casual gesture from the enemy, he was severely injured!
Waves of shock battered the Xiao Clan elder's heart as he did his best to unleash more than 100% of his battle prowess. And yet...
"Surrrender and I will spare your Xiao Clan!" The black robed man said arrogantly. His eyes disdainful as he watched the Xiao Clan elder catch his breath. Then he looked at the azure dragon roaring at him in defiance and his eyes gleamed with greed.
Finally. The endlesss centuries of feuding with one obnoxious clan was finally coming to a conclusion. At this moment, everyone knew that the Xiao Clan was done for. And if this Xiao Clan elder surrendered, then his bloodline shall forever be a slave to the Ming Clan. Which was a humiliation that wouldn't be washed away for countless years!
The Xiao Clan elder glared bitterly at the black robed man. Eyes bloodshot in hatred, he shouted through his gritting teeth. "Ming! Jian!"
The blue sun behind him dazzled brightly with his anger. The azure dragon resonated with his fury. He erupted an aura that was vying to supercede the Divine presence of the enemy. Sadly it was like wind battering a steel wall. Unaffected, causing the black robed man, Ming Jian to sneer.
"Foolish, I no longer bare such mundane name." Ming Jian said. His aura seething, he proclaimed grandly. "From this day forward, I am Divine Black Daoist! I am one of the Divine level experts in the world! Who dares to stop me from destroying the Ming Clan?!"
His voice boomed everywhere and reached out the hidden powerhouses watching the drama unfold. A pin-drop silence followed...
"MING JIAN!!!"
It was at this baffling moment that a roar filled with madness boomed with domineering fluctuations of spear intent. Shocking the hearts of those present. Especially the Xiao Clan elder, who trembled in agitation and looked over in worry.
Ming Jian also shifted his gaze rather coldly. The moment he did, he caught sight of a beam of light heading towards his direction.
That beam of light was illuminating blue light. Flying with spear intent swept out as it pierced the void. Then it abruptly stopped meters away, showing a man in Clan robes with dauntless dignity. Despite looking haggard and injured, it didn't diminish the ferocity and killing intent he was emanating.
"Xiao Xuan." Ming Jian spat coldly. His eyes disdainful as ever.
"Ming Jian!" Xiao Xuan couldn't help but shout in anger. It couldn't be help since it was all this man's fault for instigating the destruction of the Xiao Clan.
As both of them hovered there, their killing intent erupted to pressurize the other. Fluctuating waves of spear and sword intent battered amidst the void and numerous blastwaves collided. Through this first contact alone, Xiao Xuan's face fell as he immediately realized how severely outmatched he was in terms of battle prowess.
He...was simply far too weak.

"Xaio Xuan," Ming Jian spoke coldly, "It had brought great shame throughout my cultivation career, as the popular opinions would always dare to compare your measly self to me.
"Now, things have changed. I am a Divine Level expert. A realm you can't hope to fathom. And you, are nothing. Just a weakling, so weak, I could kill with a flip of my hand.
"You no longer bare the title of my stepping stone, mongrel. Because from this day on, the Xiao Clan is no more!"
Ming Jian's voice boomed with the backing of his cultivation base. Echoing like a omnipresent being was speaking from above. Declaring his heavenly dharmic decree.
Xiao Xuan's face couldn't be anymore unsightly. He could never believe this was the same bastard last year who couldn't win nor lose against him. The last time he remembered, the latter's cultivation base was the same as his. Now, it seems he had stumbled upon a grand fortune that allowed him to push to the next realm in less than a year.
As to how it happened, Xiao Xuan knew almost nothing. And it was to his disbelief that his enemy was so strong that not even the Divine Jade Daoist was doing anything. In fact, the latter's silence for the destruction of the Xiao Clan spoke volumes of what the grand scheme of things actually were.
Xiao Xuan was merely speculating however. And he clearly didn't have the chance to prove anything knowing Ming Jian, this vile creature whose viciousness knows no bounds wouldn't say anything.
The moment Ming Jian was done speaking, Xiao Xuan looked at him with bloodshot eyes. Suppressing his fears, he said rather coldly. "You done inflating your damn ego? Good. Cause I really wanted tell you so much, that I should've killed you way back when you were so easy to snap!
"God you're so f*cking vile you make me vomit. Are you even human? Just thinking that people kept comparing me and you really was disgusting that it's reasonable I talk to pigs!
"So what if you're a Divine Level?! So what if you're stronger now?! It doesn't even change the fact of what a disgrace you are as a human being! Please, do us all a favor and die a horrible death!"
After he said that, Xiao Xuan began to gather the energy that was surging out of his body. An intense rumbling could be heard as his aura condensed in a clearer form. Appearing as if he was ascending to a higher state. He let a roar filled with power.
"Battle Intent!"
It was at this moment, Xiao Xuan seemed to be a stronger person. He clearly felt energy coursing through his body. His senses sharpened and his instincts took over. Giving him a clearer mind more than ever.
Then, Xiao Xuan looked at the Xiao Clan elder. And the latter looked at him. Both seemed worried and frustrated. Almost helpless. But unlike the Xiao Clan elder, Xiao Xuan wasn't despairing to hesitate. Before Xiao Clan elder could say anything, Xiao Xuan looked at the azure dragon and made a gesture.
The azure dragon, seemingly drawn by some spiritual connection, shot forth towards Xiao Xuan in a form of a spear. Which Xiao Xuan grabbed as if natural. And the moment he did, his aura shot through the skies!
Before he didn't seemed human after entering a unique state. Now, Xiao Xuan looked like a demigod of war. As if he could destroy any fortress in his path with his killing intent alone. He brandished his spear gracefully. Along with a giant azure dragon shadowing his figure.
"Pathetic." Ming Jian seemed unperturbed by Xiao Xuan's transformation. "So what if the Azure Blood Spear was handed down to your hands? You're still no match for me."
"Will see about that!" Xiao Xuan, preparing to attack, shot towards Ming Jian in a beam of light.
"Taste your defeat and die!"
Spear intent swept forth to pressurize Ming Jian. Followed by numerous spearlights shooting towards him. Then a spear spell was instantly performed. The innumerable spears in the chaotic battlefield, whether damaged or used rose up into the air as if hefted by invisible spirits, shot towards Ming Jian from all directions!
