Dashing Student-Chapter 1217: Boundless Potential

Chen Nan felt as if he had experienced a long passage of time. The physical pain, combined with the forceful use of the Space Law, almost tore his body and Divine Soul apart.

He didn’t know where the Teleportation Array would send him, and at this moment, his mind was already a blur.

In the mountains, a yellow beam of light shot straight through, even piercing the sky!

A shrill voice immediately echoed across the sky.

"No! Chen Nan, you little thief, how can you escape?!"

Wang Xiang’s face was full of disbelief. A dignified Nascent Soul Realm cultivator couldn’t even kill Chen Nan and had even lost an arm.

Such news was simply unimaginable!

His Heart was filled with unwillingness, humiliation, and hatred. He was almost driven mad, hurriedly rushing to the location of the Teleportation Array, hoping to teleport just like Chen Nan.

Unfortunately, Chen Nan’s precaution took effect. The talisman left behind exploded fiercely after Chen Nan left, and the powerful impact instantly destroyed the Teleportation Array.

Even Wang Xiang, who was nearby, was violently blasted away by the talisman.

With a "puff," Wang Xiang spat out a mouthful of blood in anger, his eyes bloodshot: "Chen Nan, you little thief, how dare you humiliate me like this? No matter where in the world, I will tear you to pieces!"

His words were shouted like a vow, turning the sky a different color, and the surrounding mana even turned into a dense black, instilling fear.

In the sky outside the mountain range, a figure stood, clicking their tongue in wonder at the scene: "He’s gone mad, it seems he truly hates Chen Nan to the core."

"But he’s my chosen offering; he can’t die by your hand."

If Chen Nan were here, he would surely recognize this person as one of the Elders of Yama Hall: Elder Han.

But Elder Han ultimately did not make a move against Wang Xiang, unclear what he was thinking, and after confirming Chen Nan had escaped danger, he turned and left.

Elsewhere, Sikong Lingxi was in the thick of battle with the prodigies of the Wang Family. Although the Earth Rock Puppet was powerful, it was pinned down by Zhang Yunyi and Chong Xiao.

Thus, under Sikong Lingxi’s Longsword, the Wang Family’s prodigies quickly began to falter, and just then, their reinforcements arrived, led by a Nascent Soul Realm Elder.

"Elder, go help Chen Nan... Chen Han, he’s being pursued by Wang Xiang, one of the Wang Family Elders!" Zhang Yunyi hurried to the reinforcements, nearly misspeaking.

The Elder frowned slightly, sighing: "Being pursued by a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, even a newly ascended one, is something a Golden Core Realm Cultivator absolutely cannot withstand."

"Your friend is likely already dead." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

"Impossible!" Chong Xiao flew over directly: "He won’t die, I don’t believe he’ll die at the hands of someone like Wang Xiang!"

The Elder sighed, and after defeating the many geniuses of the Wang Family, led the others in pursuit along the trail, finding continuous traces of blood all along the way, clearly left by Chen Nan.

Soon, they arrived at the front of the mountain range, where the mountains had been pierced, and the forest in front of the mountains was buried underground, countless cracks and fissures like a spider web splitting the ground apart.

Seeing such a scene, they could guess how intense the battle had been; even Zhang Yunyi and Chong Xiao no longer thought Chen Nan could still be alive.

Wang Xiang had already disappeared, but the lingering Demonic Qi was still sensed by the Elder, who frowned deeply, clearly viewing Wang Xiang’s descent into madness as a disaster that could get no worse.

The group arrived at the site of Chen Nan’s escape to find the remnants of a broken Teleportation Array, and they couldn’t help but be shocked.

"There’s actually a Teleportation Array here? Perhaps your friend has already escaped." The Elder spoke to comfort them, although knowing the chance was slim.

But Zhang Yunyi and Chong Xiao both laughed joyfully.

"I just knew it, he definitely won’t die. I’ve been thinking about surpassing him one day!" Chong Xiao clenched his fists excitedly.

The Elder shook his head, unable to believe Chen Nan was still alive, but unwilling to dampen their spirits.

At this moment, a young cultivator hurried over, holding an arm: "Elder, this was left on the battlefield."

Judging by the sleeve of the arm, they could see it belonged to Wang Xiang. Everyone, including the Elder, was stunned, feeling as though the world had been turned upside down.

A cultivator spoke stiffly: "Are you saying he not only survived the pursuit of a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator but also cut off Wang Xiang’s arm?"

"Am I dreaming?" He slapped himself hard, the crisp sound snapping others out of their stupor, but leaving them all speechless with shock.

The events had surpassed their understanding; they never imagined how a cultivator at the Third Layer of the Golden Core Realm could injure a Nascent Soul Realm powerhouse.

Sikong Lingxi’s face remained calm, but her Heart was equally uneasy, Chen Nan’s departing figure replaying over and over in her mind.

"This child... his future is limitless!"

The Elder hesitated for a long time before finally uttering this sentence, not even knowing how to sufficiently evaluate Chen Nan?

A genius? No mere genius, however exceptional, had ever been seen to be so powerful.

"Chong Xiao, Zhang Yunyi, this person is your friend, what is his background?" The Elder harbored other thoughts, considering how such talent could advance the Sect if they joined.

Zhang Yunyi shook his head, saying: "His name is Chen Han, a Loose Cultivator; that’s all we know."

"Yes, I don’t know anything else either." Chong Xiao quickly agreed.

The Elder saw through their untruths but didn’t press them, only saying: "If you meet him again, tell him the Sword Sect welcomes him as a guest."

"Now, I also believe he is still alive."

The other cultivators showed envious expressions, knowing that if that Loose Cultivator were truly alive and joined the Sword Sect, they would at least become a Saint Heir.

Chong Xiao puffed out his chest as if he had been praised, and even Zhang Yunyi had a proud look on his face, as if saying it was all worth it because they insisted on befriending Chen Nan against everyone’s objections.

They had earned it.

After discussing Chen Nan, the Elder looked at the ruined Teleportation Array and the residual Demonic Qi here, his expression growing more serious.

"Wang Xiang’s whereabouts are unknown. We must find him; a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator poses too great a threat to be left unchecked!"

If the Wang Family still existed, its members naturally wouldn’t dare to act recklessly, but now that the Wang Family was gone, Wang Xiang had nothing holding him back, and if he hid, it would unsettle all the allied forces.

He might not dare to take direct revenge on all the Sects and Families, but the disciples of the Sects and the younger generations of the Families couldn’t hide forever.

Thus, Wang Xiang, this grave threat, had to be resolved!
