Divine King of Honour

Time passed slowly.

Xu Nian was completely immersed in his cultivation.

During this time, Mei Ji opened her eyes three times but found that Xu Nian was still cultivating.

This surprised her greatly!

In fact, she did not know that Xu Nian was already at the critical stage of a breakthrough.

At this moment, his understanding of Wind Cutting Profound Argumentation had deepened further.

Thus, his cutting force would be stronger than before.

He had fully reached the Great Success Realm.

What was most important now was to integrate this Wind Cutting Profound Argumentation into his swordsmanship.

After practicing in his heart tens of thousands of times, Xu Nian finally created the move.

"Buzz!"

Xu Nian suddenly opened his eyes.

A sharp and fierce momentum exploded from his eyes.

Mei Ji, who was beside him, also suddenly opened her eyes; she felt an extremely sharp aura just then.

This aura was not something she could underestimate.

"Did your understanding break through?" Mei Ji looked at Xu Nian and asked.

"Yes, I made a breakthrough in the Wind Attribute Profound Argumentation and have barely stepped into the Great Success Realm," Xu Nian replied with a smile.

He did not hide it because the momentum he emitted moments ago already explained everything.

"Great Success?" Mei Ji was speechless.

She had reached the Transcendance Tribulation Stage but only had insights into the Great Success Realm.

Yet, Xu Nian had achieved the Great Success Realm while at the Peak of Cave Void, which was simply terrifying.

"Boom!"

At this moment, a violent explosion sounded from the ship.

The entire ship shook violently.

"What's going on? Did we hit a meteorite?" Xu Nian asked in surprise.

"Probably not. The ship is equipped with formations, and it would avoid meteorite clusters. It shouldn't hit a meteorite. Something must be attacking the ship." Mei Ji replied.

"Let's go check it out!" Xu Nian responded.

Mei Ji nodded.

As cultivators, they could stay in the void for a short time.

But crossing the void was something they might not be able to do.

When Xu Nian and Mei Ji stepped out of the ship and into the void, they found a ship similar to Mei Ji's in front of them.

On the ship stood two middle-aged men.

The two men were looking at Xu Nian and Mei Ji with faces full of arrogance.

The attack on the ship came from one of these middle-aged men.

"Uh? Who are they?" Xu Nian asked in surprise.

"They are space pirates. They plunder passing ships in the cosmic void to obtain treasures," Mei Ji explained.

Upon hearing this, Xu Nian immediately understood their identities.

Space pirates are essentially robbers in the cosmic void.

What surprised Xu Nian was that their cultivation levels were not high.

One was only at Harmonization Peak, while the other was slightly higher but only in the Heavenly Phenomenon Early Stage.

He wondered where they got the courage to raid Mei Ji's ship.

Didn't they know that Mei Ji's strength had reached the Transcendance Tribulation Stage?

Mei Ji seemed to notice Xu Nian's confusion and smiled, saying, "These two are clearly low-level space pirates. This place is close to the edge of the Taiheng Star Domain where people are scarce. They are probably trying their luck. They haven't discovered my cultivation level because I used a secret technique to adjust my level to Harmonization Early Stage."

Xu Nian looked over and saw that Mei Ji's cultivation level had indeed become Harmonization Early Stage.

It seemed Mei Ji wanted to use this opportunity to eliminate the two space pirates.

"Haha, we didn't expect to have a bonus this time. Not only did we encounter a fat sheep but also a stunning beauty. Such a gorgeous woman is a rare prize, big brother!"

"Indeed, we are lucky this time. Second brother, kill the boy and seal the woman's cultivation level. Don't let them escape."

...

The words containing True Essence of the two space pirates echoed in the endless void.

If True Essence is not used, sound cannot be transmitted in the void.

Their words reached Xu Nian and Mei Ji's ears, sounding exceptionally harsh.

Mei Ji's seductive eyes narrowed, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.

She was about to act.

"Let me do it. I just made a breakthrough; it's a perfect chance to test my skills!" Xu Nian said with a smile.

"Can you handle it?" Mei Ji asked in surprise.

Although these two space pirates seemed low-level to her, one was at Harmonization Peak, and the other was at Heavenly Phenomenon Early Stage.

Could Xu Nian, at the Peak of Cave Void, really handle two opponents with higher cultivation levels?

"Of course, I survived a confrontation with someone at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage," Xu Nian replied with a smile.

Mei Ji recalled that Xu Nian had indeed withstood two attacks from Yann Hui.

He even killed Guihai Tianxing under Yann Hui's nose.

Even Mei Ji couldn't guarantee she could kill Xu Nian.

"Alright, go ahead. If there is a problem, I will step in," Mei Ji said.

Xu Nian nodded, then turned and smiled at the two space pirates in the distance.

He tapped his toes and floated out.

"Boy, are you here to die? Hand over your treasures obediently, and we might leave your corpse intact. As for the woman behind you, sorry, we'll be taking her," the Harmonization Peak middle-aged pirate mocked coldly upon seeing Xu Nian fly out.

"You think you can kill me? You don't have the qualifications. As for the woman behind me, even I can't have her. You dare to harbor evil intentions, you are simply courting death," Xu Nian responded with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Mei Ji's eyes brightened, smiling with flirtatious eyes.

But the middle-aged pirate was filled with fury.

A boy at the Peak of Cave Void dared to speak to him this way, seeking death.

"Kid, since you are so fearless, I'll send you to King Yan!" The middle-aged pirate roared and a battle axe appeared in his hand.

He swung the battle axe, slashing fiercely at Xu Nian.

Axe light swept across the sky like the Star River falling.

This strike was no weaker than Guihai Tianxing's strongest move of the Asura Three Sabers.

But this time, Xu Nian's face showed no fear.

"Buzz!"

The King Jing Sword appeared in his hand.

A sharp aura of sword qi radiated from him.

"One Slash Silence!"

With a loud shout, Xu Nian swung the King Jing Sword.

The sword radiance instantly shattered the axe light.

With great speed, the sword slashed through the air and sliced the Harmonization Peak middle-aged pirate into two pieces.

"Such a powerful strike!"

Mei Ji's face showed surprise.

She felt a flicker of anxiety at that moment.

The distant middle-aged pirate was also in disbelief.

Looking at his fallen companion, he couldn't believe his eyes.
