The Supreme Being Against Heaven
Chapter Summary
“I, Tan Yun, can say with a clear conscience that since entering the sect, I have always followed the rules and never deliberately made enemies.” “But that does not mean I am weak or cowardly.” “Even if I killed them today, it was still in accordance with the sect rules.” “The sect rules clearly state—” “If someone attempts to kill another, the one being attacked may kill in self-defense without committing any crime.” Then he spoke a sentence filled with killing intent. “Senior Brother Tan… are ...
More than 800 disciples stared at the corpses of Murong Kun and Linghu Changkong in utter shock. For a moment, they could hardly process what had just happened before their eyes.
In their minds, Murong Kun and Linghu Changkong were people who absolutely should not be provoked. Not only the disciples, but even many elders of the outer sect were unwilling to offend them.
But now…
They were dead.
Dead in front of so many disciples!
From the conversation between Tan Yun, Linghu Changkong, and Murong Kun, the disciples had already understood the cause of the conflict.
The origin of everything was not Tan Yun provoking them first.
Instead, Murong Kun and Linghu Changkong had repeatedly tried to eliminate Tan Yun!
At the same time, everyone had clearly seen what kind of person Tan Yun truly was.
He feared neither power nor danger, and once he acted, he was decisive without the slightest hesitation!
After everyone gradually recovered from their shock, a beautiful female disciple suddenly seemed to think of something. Her face instantly turned pale.
She couldn't help but say,
“Could it be… that Tan Yun is afraid the truth about killing Murong Kun and Linghu Changkong will be exposed, so he plans to kill us to silence us?”
The moment these words were spoken, the atmosphere immediately became tense.
Everyone's expressions changed at once!
Dozens of disciples even drew their flying swords, ready to flee at any moment.
At that moment,
Mu Mengyi walked gracefully to Tan Yun's side.
She looked at the panicking crowd and slightly parted her lips, her clear voice sounding calm and confident.
“Everyone, there is no need to panic.”
“Tan Yun is not someone who would slaughter innocent people indiscriminately.”
“Hmph!”
Tan Yun shook his body slightly. Spiritual energy trembled outward, shaking off the blood that stained his clothes.
His gaze swept across the crowd as he spoke calmly,
“All of you are fellow disciples of the same sect as me.”
“After entering the inner sect, we will inevitably meet each other often.”
“If anyone intends to kill me in the future…”
“Abandon that thought starting now.”
Tan Yun continued, his eyes firm.
“I, Tan Yun, can say with a clear conscience that since entering the sect, I have always followed the rules and never deliberately made enemies.”
“But that does not mean I am weak or cowardly.”
“Even if I killed them today, it was still in accordance with the sect rules.”
“The sect rules clearly state—”
“If someone attempts to kill another, the one being attacked may kill in self-defense without committing any crime.”
Then he spoke a sentence filled with killing intent.
“Anyone who wants to kill me…”
“I will kill them first—unless I die before that!”
After hearing that Tan Yun had no intention of killing them, everyone hurriedly wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads and sighed in relief.
At that moment, a male disciple looked at Tan Yun hesitantly before asking carefully,
“Senior Brother Tan… may I ask something?”
Tan Yun raised an eyebrow slightly.
“Ask.”
The male disciple gathered his courage and spoke the doubt shared by everyone present.
“Senior Brother Tan… are you really only at Level 1 of the Nascent Soul Realm?”
The moment this question was asked, everyone immediately focused their attention.
Because they had never heard of someone at the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm killing someone at Level 4!
Tan Yun shook his head slightly.
“Of course not.”
As soon as he finished speaking,
he removed the concealment of the Primordial Divine Eyes that had been hiding his cultivation.
His true cultivation realm was revealed—
Nascent Soul Realm, Level 3.
Among the crowd, hundreds of disciples at the same level used their spiritual senses to verify it, confirming it with the Level 2 disciples nearby.
Before long, everyone knew Tan Yun’s true cultivation level.
But even so…
Their shock did not decrease in the slightest.
Because even at Level 3, he had still killed opponents 1 major realm higher than himself!
Suddenly—
“BOOM!”
A thunderous sound erupted from the giant tower that stood 1,000 zhang tall.
It was the Mustard Seed Space-Time Tower.
Everyone turned toward the sound.
They saw that—
the tightly closed 1st floor gate of the tower was slowly opening.
When the disciples saw this, they were instantly overjoyed.
“Haha! This is great!”
“The Mustard Seed Space-Time Tower has opened!”
“Yes! We've finally waited for this moment!”
“This is so exciting! 1 month inside equals 50 months outside!”
“The tower will only remain open for 1/4 of a shichen. Hurry inside!”
As one disciple flew toward the tower gate on his sword, he noticed something strange.
Although everyone looked excited, no one rushed in immediately.
Instead, their eyes were greedily staring at the Qiankun Rings scattered on the ground behind Tan Yun.
Those rings belonged to more than 1,900 dead people.
It went without saying that before dying, those people must have stored quite a number of Spiritual Springs inside them, preparing to cultivate after entering the Mustard Seed Space-Time Tower.
Tan Yun glanced at the crowd briefly.
Then he flicked his right hand.
“Whoosh!”
More than 1,900 Qiankun Rings instantly floated into the air and shot into the Qiankun Ring on his finger.
One disciple hurriedly spoke respectfully,
“Senior Brother Tan… are you going to check the spoils of battle? May I ask if there are any Lightning Spiritual Springs? If there are, I am willing to buy them…”
Before he could finish speaking,
Xue Ziyan immediately glared at him and said sarcastically,
“When we were surrounded earlier, you all just stood there watching.”
“You even mocked Tan Yun for overestimating himself.”
“And now you want to buy things?”
“No chance! Get lost!”
“Ziyan, we are all from the same sect. Speak a little more politely.”
Tan Yun smiled faintly and glanced at everyone.
“If you want to buy something, it’s not impossible.”
“But… offer 100x the market price in spirit stones.”
“Then I might consider selling.”
Tan Yun’s words instantly made everyone look embarrassed.
Soon, those disciples flew on their swords and rushed into the 1st floor of the Mustard Seed Space-Time Tower.
The moment they entered, they felt dizzy.
Their bodies were instantly teleported to different floors of the tower.
Before long, the enormous plaza was left with only
Tan Yun and his 4 companions.
Mu Mengyi smiled softly.
“Tan Yun, let’s go in.”
“Wait.”
Xue Ziyan said with a mischievous smile.
“Tan Yun, with so many Qiankun Rings, there must be 5-element spiritual springs suitable for me—”
“Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.”
“Don’t you plan to give me some?”
Mu Mengyi immediately rolled her eyes.
“Ziyan, if Tan Yun wants to give you something, he will give it himself.”
“Why do you have to ask him?”
Xue Ziyan shrugged without any embarrassment.
She glanced at Zhong Wushiyao from the corner of her eye before deliberately raising her voice.
“Senior Sister Mu, why be shy?”
“Tan Yun is your future husband.”
“And I’m your good sister.”
“How could he possibly refuse me?”
“Ziyan, don’t talk nonsense!”
Mu Mengyi pretended to be angry, but her face turned slightly red.
Tan Yun smiled charmingly.
“Even if Ziyan didn’t say anything, I would still give her some.”
Then he turned to look at Rongrong.
“Mengyi possesses 2 top-tier talents—
the Death Nascent Soul and the Beast Nascent Soul.”
“Shiyao, aside from being a Profound Yin Sacred Body, also possesses a top-tier Spatial Nascent Soul.”
“Ziyan has a 5-Element Nascent Soul—Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth, which is an extremely rare high-grade talent.”
Tan Yun looked at Rongrong and asked,
“And what about you? What type of Nascent Soul do you have?”
As he spoke, he casually collected 1,917 low-grade spirit weapon flying swords from the ground into his Qiankun Ring.
To avoid drawing attention,
Tan Yun did not wear the Divine Ring given to him by the Golden Dragon God.
He planned to use it in the future when his strength became greater.
Upon hearing the question,
Rongrong’s eyes immediately lit up.
She guessed that if Tan Yun asked such a question, he must be planning to give out Spiritual Springs.
So she quickly replied excitedly,
“I have a top-grade talent—”
“The Lightning Nascent Soul.”
Tan Yun nodded.
“Mm.”
Then his spiritual sense entered the Qiankun Ring to inspect all the Spiritual Springs inside.
Before long, the inspection was complete.
The spoils from this battle could truly be described as enormous.

They were also priceless treasures whose value could not truly be measured.
