149: Chapter 149 The Heavenly Mandate Cult
Just as he was preparing to head to the Ten Thousand Monster Ridge Pass to deal with those Venerable-level exotic beasts in his space.
Several figures instantly appeared around him, surrounding him tightly.
Each of them actually possessed strength above the Martial Venerable level.
"Han Chunming, a Four-Star Martial Emperor in his twenties, and he can even kill a Martial Venerable against the odds? Interesting, interesting..."
The leader wore a yellow brocade robe and scrutinized Han Ming with a fiery gaze, his greed undisguised.
Judging by his aura, he was clearly a powerhouse at the Five-Star Martial Venerable level.
The other two were not weak either; they actually both possessed the strength of a Four-Star Martial Venerable.
"Who are you people? What is the meaning of blocking my path?"
Han Ming took a look at them, unable to discern their origins, and frowned slightly.
"It doesn't matter who we are; what matters is that we want to know what your Talent is. How did you manage to Cultivate to the Martial Emperor level in your twenties?"
The middle-aged man leading them smiled faintly, looking at Han Ming with interest.
The other two did not speak, but they had already released their Profound Truths, locking down the space for several thousand meters around them.
They were confident that even if Han Ming had the strength to defeat a Two-Star Martial Venerable against the odds, he would be unable to escape their lockdown.
"Oh? Are you people from the Destiny Sect? I am from the Magic City Han Family; aren't you afraid of the Han Family's retaliation?"
Han Ming raised an eyebrow and asked the leader.
Having Transmigrated for nearly a year, this was his first time encountering someone from the Destiny Sect.
"Hahaha... Although the Magic City Han Family is strong, our Destiny Sect is not weak either. Besides, there are many powers eyeing you right now; who would be certain that it was us?"
"Furthermore, as long as we capture you and study your Talent and Physique clearly, what does offending the Han Family amount to?"
The leader in the brocade robe burst into laughter upon hearing this.
"Oh! Is that so? Then you can go to die."
As Han Ming spoke, his body suddenly jolted, and the Profound Truth energy sealing him shattered instantly.
He activated his Space Profound Truth, instantly releasing Space Imprisonment and Space Cutting, targeting the leading Five-Star Martial Venerable.
"Space Profound Truth? How is that possible?"
The leading middle-aged man felt his body being instantly imprisoned, his expression changed drastically, and he cried out in shock.
Fifty percent of his Wind and Fire Profound Truths erupted instantly; raging flames and tyrannical gales ignited around him as he attempted to break through the imprisonment of Han Ming's Space Profound Truth.
But it was already too late; the Space Cutting arrived in an instant, directly splitting his body in two.
Fast, it was simply too fast.
From the moment Han Ming attacked until the leading middle-aged man died, it happened in just an instant.
"Big Brother..."
The other two watched the leader's two halves fall from the sky, only then reacting, and let out a roar with eyes split from rage.
They never imagined that a Four-Star Martial Emperor could instantly kill their Big Brother, a Five-Star Martial Venerable.
Han Ming did not give them a chance to react; he took a step forward, and his figure instantly appeared behind one of them.
He activated his Space Profound Truth with full force; the space within a thousand zhang seemed to freeze, and the Four-Star Martial Venerable's body suddenly stalled, his eyes filled with horror and fear.
"No—"
He exhausted all his strength to activate the Metal and Earth dual Profound Truths within his body, golden sharpness and earthy yellow heaviness intertwining around him in an attempt to break free from the space imprisonment.
But how could Han Ming give him this chance?
Raising his hand, he struck a palm; the Ice and Water dual Profound Truths condensed in his palm, the palm print breaking through the opponent's protective Profound Truth and landing on his chest.
With a crack, his sternum shattered; the Four-Star Martial Venerable's body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, blood gushing from his mouth, his eyes gradually losing focus.
The other Four-Star Martial Venerable turned pale at the sight and turned to run.
His speed was extremely fast, and he escaped hundreds of meters in an instant.
But he was fast, and Han Ming was faster; with one step, he arrived right in front of him.
"Don't... don't kill me, I, I am willing to submit to you. And tell you the secrets about the Destiny Sect."
Seeing Han Ming suddenly appear, the man knew he couldn't escape; his face pale, he hurriedly knelt in the air and begged Han Ming for mercy.
"No need, you should just go die!"
Han Ming said indifferently.
After speaking, he gave him no chance at all; a Space Cutting shot out, instantly killing him.
He was a Transmigrator who had read the original work, so he naturally understood the Destiny Sect.
They started as a group of scientific research maniacs unwilling to accept their mediocre Talents.
They researched methods for Talent transplantation, initially just taking money to help others transplant Talents.
How many people with low Talents were there?
Many people with mediocre Talents but no lack of money began to seek them out.
They called themselves the Destiny Sect, claiming they could defy Heaven and change fate.
Talent transplantation became a massive industry chain, even more rampant than those organ transplantations before he Transmigrated.
But Talents could not be created out of thin air, so those without backgrounds who awakened powerful Talents suffered.
They became targets for their source of Talents, and from then on, anyone who awakened a powerful Talent lived in fear.
The high-level officials of the Great Xia Alliance also knew of this danger, so they began to suppress the Destiny Sect, explicitly banning Talent transplantation, and killed many high-level members of the Destiny Sect.
Since then, the Destiny Sect had kept a much lower profile, moving from the light to the dark, and became one of the two major evil sects of the Great Xia Alliance.
But where there is demand, there is a market; many powers and Families were secretly cooperating with people from the Destiny Sect.
Previously in Jiangbei Base City, the Jiang Family that caused Lin Fan's Rebirth was one of them; of course, those who could contact them would not be any big figures of the Destiny Sect.
Just didn't expect the Destiny Sect to actually set their sights on him, and they immediately sent three powerhouses above the Four-Star Martial Venerable level.
They had obviously investigated his strength, but they didn't expect his strength to have grown stronger again.
Of course, Han Ming was also curious: why didn't his grandfather back then seek out the Destiny Sect?
With the strength and financial resources of the Han Family, it would not be difficult to transplant an S-grade Talent for his grandfather.
Han Ming didn't dwell on it anymore; he grabbed into the void with his right hand, and three ancient Storage Rings appeared in his hand.
"Not bad, worthy of being people from the Destiny Sect."
Seeing the contents with his Divine Thought, Han Ming revealed a satisfied smile.
There were over one billion Low-Grade Spirit Stones in total, nearly fifty million Mid-Grade Spirit Stones, and quite a few Medicinal Pills and Spirit Medicines to assist in Cultivation.
Han Ming flashed away, leaving the spot.
Then he entered the Cave Heaven World.
"Young Master, you are back?"
Ji Lingyue had finished her Cultivation; seeing Han Ming return, she happily went to greet him.
"Hmm, not bad, you have already reached the Peak Six-Star Martial Emperor level. Keep working hard; this is for you."
Han Ming felt the increasingly powerful aura on her body, nodded with satisfaction, and handed her the few Storage Rings he had just acquired.
"Yes, thank you, Young Master; I will not let you down."
Ji Lingyue happily took the few Storage Rings.
Seeing this, Ji Yinshuang and Ji Mingyue on the side were envious, but they dared not say anything.
Ji Lingyue was Han Ming's woman, while the two of them were merely servants!
[Ding, detected that host's disciple Ji Lingyue has obtained three 10-million-cubic-meter Storage Rings, synchronizing and feeding back to the host three 10-million-cubic-meter Storage Spaces!]
[Ding, detected that host's disciple Ji Lingyue has obtained 1,020,000,800 Low-Grade Spirit Stones and 47,630,000 Mid-Grade Spirit Stones, synchronizing and feeding back to the host...]
[Ding...]
At the same time Ji Lingyue took the rings, a series of System prompts sounded in Han Ming's mind.
Han Ming glanced at the few extra Space Rings in his hand and smiled with satisfaction.
Having Ji Lingyue by his side is great; he can fleece the System anytime.
Immediately, his body rose into the air, and with a wave of his hand, all the Spirit Stones inside the rings flew out instantly, floating above the Cave Heaven World.
"Shatter!"
Han Ming let out a low shout, and the one billion Low-Grade Spirit Stones and over forty million Mid-Grade Spirit Stones instantly shattered.
