Ace Of Terrans

Unity snorted and waved her hand. She opened a direct space tunnel to the Citadel and vanished from her spot. The others shrugged and began to discuss Shi Lang\'s condition. They did not know what was happening, but Allandale said, "His bones are undergoing metamorphosis."

Hayley asked, "Explain."

Allandale replied, "They are turning denser. However, it is not brittle. From what my instruments can pick up. His bones are turning into gold."

Surprised, the people raised their eyebrows, and Jenkins said, "I heard him tell me that bones will turn into jade when a cultivator crosses the Nirvana realm."

Marly scratched her nose and asked, "Sir, the cultivation compendium states that the bones will change into jade when we cross the core condensation realm, does it not?"

Jenkins nodded and said, "It does say that is a reference to the strength one gets. It is akin to having bones of jade. However, when your bones turn into jade, the strength is enough to erase a city with a punch. I wonder how strong this monster is at this moment."

The youngsters exchanged glasses and gulped as they looked at the seniors. Amelia smiled faintly and said, "Yes, we are all above that level and can destroy a city. However, there are methods to stop our attacks, like high-grade defense formations. Do not worry. We do not intend to go berserk anytime soon."

The people nodded when they heard this. It was obvious that they were curious to know more about Shi Lang\'s strength. When discussing various aspects of cultivation, a space wrap appeared behind them, and Unity came out with Tex. The young man had a swollen face.

Unity must have given him a good beating before she bought him here. After all, this guy did not show up when she asked, making her look like a fool. She walked over with him in tow. Tex displayed a humble attitude and bowed to the people in greeting.

Amelia found it awkward because she could tell that this guy was above them in the cultivation realm, at the least. Finally, Jenkins asked, "Mister Tex, have you broken into the Mahayana realm?"

Tex beamed with pride and nodded, "Yes, I have."

Jenkins nodded and said, "Congratulations."

The others also wished him congratulations, and the guy responded modestly, while Unity scoffed and said, "You think too highly of him. This guy is way older than you all, and he acts like he is your junior. It was about time for him to break through into Mahayana. Otherwise, the face of the spirit beast race would have been tarnished."

Tex scratched the back of his head and asked, "Senior, what do you mean?"

Unity pointed at Shi Lang in the distance and said, "This human is in his late twenties and has caught up with you."

Tex was shocked. He could not believe someone had entered the Mahayana realm in less than three decades. However, Unity did not stop, saying, "This guy started cultivating only a decade ago. Also, he made this breakthrough in one fell swoop from the early realm of Nirvana to the early realm of Mahayana. What are you so proud of?"

She did not spare any effort to break Tex\'s spirit. This was a test of mental fortitude. While they were discussing, Shi Lang\'s body healed entirely, and he descended to the ground. Amelia saw this, and her figure flickered as she took a black curtain from her space ring and held it before her husband.

Shi Lang opened his crimson eyes slowly, observed the scene briefly, and said, "Someone sure is jealous."

Amelia snorted and said, "I am saving your face in front of the juniors."

Shi Lang laughed as he changed his clothes. The young man had taken out a black hanfu with red trimmings on the hem of his attire. His hair had grown slightly longer from the effect of the heavenly providence. However, they were jet black.

Amelia asked, "What happened to your hair?"

Shi Lang smiled and did not say anything. Amelia understood that it was the effect of his cultivation sutra. She smiled and said, "I think my hair will turn silver when I finish my practice."

Shi Lang beamed dotingly as he said, "You will look even more ravishing then."

The lady smacked his shoulder, and Hayley said, "Yo! Can you ever stop flirting like this?"

Shi Lang held Amelia\'s hand and appeared in front of Unity as he said, "Some people cannot stop being uptight and blame others for expressing love."

Hayley clenched her fists, and her lips began to twitch. However, Jenkins immediately held her hand and said telepathically, "He is goading you into it to try his new power. Have you forgotten the tactics of this perverted rascal?"

Hayley just woke up from her rage and nodded, saying, "Boss, I will not fall for it this time."

Shi Lang smiled and scratched the back of his head. Tex saw this and said, "Senior Unity, this is the guy you were praising? Does he even have the elegance of a Mahayana cultivator? How can he compare to me?"

Shi Lang sighed. This guy has held a grudge against him since that scouting mission skirmish. He said, "Do you think I need your approval to validate my strength? Believe it or not, I could take you down in five moves if I fought seriously."

He would not let this guy disrespect him in front of his juniors and wife. Tex was a spirit beast, and such challenges were disrespectful to him. How can he take this lying down and say, "Then fight me, and we will see? Five moves? Humph, let us see if you can even touch me."

Shi Lang smiled and said, "I thought you would never ask. But, I will not be holding back."

Unity looked at both of them and said, "Fine, you can go to another space and fight. But, if you try to make a mess here, I will beat you both to a pulp."

Shi Lang nodded and vanished from his place. His soul was in top-notch condition, and his body was brimming with energy. He was confident in his skills, and his mind was calm.

Tex followed his pace and appeared at the side. The heavenly hawk young master said, "I will not lend you a sword this time."

Shi Lang chuckled and said, "I will not ask you for it either."

After this, Shi Lang manipulated his spirit tattoo, and the crimson Shura sword emerged. This was the first time he used his spirit tattoo in front of people. Amelia and the rest were shocked. They did not understand what was happening. Unity smiled and said, "That is called a spirit tattoo. It gives the cultivator a small space to store things, like a hidden weapon or emergency medicine."

Amelia asked, "When did he get this?"

Unity sighed and said, "It must be something he inherited from one of the ruins."

The people nodded if Unity was to tell them that she had no idea how this tattoo followed Shi Lang from the end of the cultivation era to this era. She could only pray that these people did not ask her any more questions.

...

Tex saw the crimson sword, and his heart palpitated. He did not know why, but he sensed a terrifying suppression from the blade. Shi Lang said, "Do not look at her edge. She is not your average sword."

Tex growled, brandishing his sword, the young man charged at Shi Lang. The terran did not flinch and moved forward to meet the attack head-on. The two collided in the center, and sparks flew around. However, Shi Lang did not hold back and attacked again.

Tex was repelled a bit, but he attacked with even more ferocity. Shi Lang smiled and said, "This was the first attack. Time for the second."

Shi Lang smiled and said, "Emperor Slash."

The sword shined with crimson light and a ray of light attacked Tex. The young master of the heavenly clan was surprised, this attack was not ferocious, but majestic. This blase slash gave him a feeling to bow down and let it behead him. This was something he did not expect.

He roared, "Heavenly Hawk slashing the heavens."

He lashed out with an attack of his own. The impact was strong, but from the sidelines, the people could see that Shi Lang\'s attack pushed back the opponent\'s attack rather easily before both the slashes vanished.

Shi Lang smiled and said, "Two moves. Ready or not here I come with the third."
