The Growth of a Titan-Chapter 427- Dangerous Situation

In the blink of an eye, the old man was grabbing at Sol once again.

However, a furious voice filled with murderous intent thundered down like an omniscient voice from the heavens.

"LOOKING FOR DEATH!!!"

This furious shout was accompanied by a powerful Soul Energy fluctuation that swept out from Sol to attack the old man.

The old man’s pupils shrank, and danger rose in his heart. His body flashed as he retreated, at the same time his defenses rose to block this Soul Energy attack.

However, despite his efforts, he still let out a groan, and stabbing pain was felt within his soul.

The old man felt his heart tremble uncontrollably. If he hadn’t reacted in time that soul attack would have obliterated his mind and extinguished his soul. But even then, the injury he suffered wasn’t simple, he would need several years just to barely recover from it.

’An existence in the Heavenly Realm? Impossible!’

The old man thought, his mind going numb.

However, upon further thought, he realized this level of soul power didn’t fully reach the legendary Heavenly Realm, but the person was half a foot in that realm in terms of soul power.

At the same time, the old man could tell this person wasn’t actually in the Heavenly Realm themselves, just that they had a terrifying Soul.

The old man analyzed the situation extremely quickly, and his eyes flashed with a cold light as he decided to attack once again.

This time with his guard up, so even that mysterious existence wouldn’t be able to stop him.

However, just as he went to make his move, the hair on his back stood up and he felt a stinging sensation on his neck.

Behind him, Woo-seong was aiming to pierce his throat with his sword, which was covered in searing hot flames.

Only a breath’s worth of time had passed since the old man appeared, but in that breath’s worth of time, Woo-seong already pulled his sword and performed a powerful Martial Arts Technique.

However, the old man was fast, and he turned his head. Woo-seong’s sword went stabbing past his throat by just a few inches.

Woo-seong’s eyes flashed, and his stab turned into a horizontal slash. He aimed to sever this bastard’s neck.

The old man was expressionless as he lifted his hand and easily caught Woo-seong’s sword with three fingers. The searing hot flames covering the sword was instantly extinguished, and with a press, the sword burst into metal fragments from the tip to the handle.

Woo-seong immediately abandoned his sword before the force could enter his hand from the handle and retreated.

However, Woo-seong’s attack wasn’t finished.

His gaze was cold as he stared at the old man, killing intent swirling in his eyes. Suddenly, a tremendous amount of Earth Energy erupted from his body. The wooden floor of the pavilion beneath him couldn’t handle the pressure and burst into splinters.

At the same time, a stone sword rose from his body. The Earth Aether Energy in the surroundings was stimulated and they started to tremble uncontrollably.

The old man was just about to ignore Woo-seong, as he was merely in the Earth Expanse Realm, but all of a sudden, the air surrounding him became heavy. The floor beneath him cracked apart as his entire body sunk into the ground.

The old man swiftly turned his head to look at Woo-seong in shock.

’This brat... he’s actually on the cusp of creating a Domain with his Innate Dharma.’—The old man’s eyes narrowed—’He’ll be troublesome to deal with in the future, and he might revive the Wudang Sect with his talents.’

Suddenly, killing intent appeared in the old man’s narrowed eyes. However, he immediately suppressed it. His target wasn’t this stray brat, but this child with the mysterious background.

The old man ignored the increased gravity and snorted derisively in Woo-seong’s direction.

This snort was similar to what Woo-seong had done to that burly youth from the Peng Clan.

However, this time, the effects were multiple times more terrifying. Not only did sound waves shake Woo-seong’s internal organs making him cough up blood, but the Aether Energy in the surroundings also crashed into him like a wave, causing his Innate Dharma to be forcefully pushed back into his body.

This caused another mouth full of blood to spill from Woo-seong’s lips and he stumbled back from the force.

Having dealt with Woo-seong, the old man turned his attention back to Sol. He took a step out of the cracked floor beneath him and walked towards him.

Sol watched as the old man approached. His steps were leisurely, and his expression was placid.

There was only so much space in this small pavilion and in only a few steps he would reach him.

This situation couldn’t be more dangerous.

Sol frowned, but his eyes suddenly flashed.

This was a Heaven Expanse Realm cultivator, Sol knew he was no match for him, however, his body itched, and he felt the urge to fight this old man.

If Yoon-Jae was here, he would probably flip out because of what Sol was about to do next.

But just when Sol was about to recklessly charge at the old man to test his current limits, he suddenly sensed something next to him and whipped his head around to see Mar-Yue.

At the same time... Bang!

A terrifying aura suddenly erupted from Mar-Yue’s body, obliterating the roof of the pavilion. The ground beneath her feet didn’t go unscathed either as numerous fissures spread out on the floor starting from her feet.

The aura around Mar-Yue was red, and her eyes released a terrifying blue radiance that landed on the old man.

Feeling this aura, the old man’s steps faltered, and his placid expression changed to one of utter shock as he looked at Mar-Yue.

Mar-Yue was actually realizing the aura of someone at the peak of the Earth Expanse Realm. However, her aura made one feel her combat strength far surpassed that.

Not only the old man, but Woo-seong was staring at Mar-Yue in utter astonishment. From her aura alone he could tell he wasn’t a match for this girl.

Suddenly, a chill went down Woo-seong’s spine when he thought back to when Mar-Yue had challenged him when they first met.

Relief overcame him as he really did dodge a massive catastrophe.

Sol showed a shocked expression as well, but his shock and the old man’s own were different from Woo-seong’s.
