Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao c1-1294

  ‘Damn, he doesn’t even forget to pick up girls when taking the field!’

  The eyes of the young ladies nearby lit up in excitement as they cupped their hands and placed them in front of their chest, desperately yelling out Xuanyuan Zi Guang’s name, wishing they could throw themselves at him.

  “Idiot!” Ling Han shook his head.

  “Idiot!” Helian Xun Xue imitated him while sticking her tongue out; after all, she had to add in some individual characteristic.

  “Next time you meet this idiot, just beat him up!” Ling Han encouraged.

  “But I’m scared of hurting my hand!” Helian Xun Xue said weakly.

  Ling Han pondered, then took out the brick, shoving it into her hand, and said, “Then use this to smack him.”

  Helian Xun Xue was instantly elated, and said, “Alright!” She gripped the brick and tried out her strength in waving it, looking eager to give it a try.

  Xuanyuan Zi Guang scored a rebuff, and his expression turned gloomy. No matter whether it was martial arts or relationships, he was successful in every endeavor, but now, he not only was unable to completely suppress Ling Han in martial arts, he also was unable to conquer Helian Xun Xue, making him out of sorts.

  ‘Hmph, we’ll see when I sweep clean these Thousand Corpse Sect dregs and win over endless glory.’

  Xuanyuan Zi Guang leapt down. Looking loftily at Bian Hao, he said, “If you can block one move, I’ll spare your life.”

  How arrogant!

  Bian Hao possessed four Corpse Soldiers that reached thirteen stars in battle prowess; was this not enough to block Xuanyuan Zi Guang’s one move?

  Bian Hao obviously burst into anger. He was a personal disciple of the Thousand Corpse Sect’s sect master, proud and arrogant. However, someone actually looked down upon him, so how could be tolerate it? He was just about to attack, but felt his shoulder sink—someone held him back.

  It was Bai Yuan.

  “Venerable Bai, please let me battle!” he said.

  Bai Yuan shook his head, and said, “You’re not his opponent, let the third go.”

  “What!?”

  The disciples of the Thousand Corpse Sect all cried out. Although they weren’t all here today, the third, in other words, the third disciple of Thousand Corpse Sect’s sect master, Ju Tian Ge, was the strongest in their party.

  The strongest card was already going to be dealt now? Was the opponent that strong?

  Ju Tian Ge had been napping all this time. Now, he finally opened his eyes and stared at Xuanyuan Zi Guang for a short while, revealing a bellicose expression, and said, “This person is a good opponent. I don’t have the certainty to win.”

  Bian Hao and the other disciples were shocked again. Even Third Senior Brother said so; was Xuanyuan Zi Guang really that strong?

  “Second Senior Brother should be able to win firmly, not to mention Great Senior Brother, whose talents are peerless, such that all of us together aren’t as good as him!” Ju Tian Ge said with a smile.

  Bian Hao and the other disciples all nodded, firmly believing Ju Tian Ge’s words. Every one of them were geniuses, but they still idolized their great senior brother; who knew just how strong this person was.

  Ju Tian Ge walked out in large strides. His stature was very tall, but he was very sturdy. At first glance, he looked somewhat like a youngster that cut firewood in the mountains.

  “Your Corpse Soldiers?” Xuanyuan Zi Guang asked.

  “When I need to use them, they’ll appear,” Ju Tian Ge said indifferently.

  Xuanyuan Zi Guang sneered, and said, “Not using Corpse Soldiers, you’ll be instantly killed.”

  “Haha, if so, then I can only blame my inferior skills.” Ju Tian Ge laughed loudly.

  When experts fight, they battled with their wits first before using their hands. Apparently, Xuanyuan Zi Guang also didn’t dare to underestimate Ju Tian Ge, or else he wouldn’t need to provoke him with words, and simply just attack.

  Xuanyuan Zi Guang placed one hand behind his back, and said, “Since you’re not using Corpse Soldiers, I’ll let you face me without one of my hands.”

  This… arrogance!

  Ju Tian Ge revealed a hint of anger; the opponent wanted to force him to use Corpse Soldiers with just one hand? How confident could he be? He snorted, opened his mouth, and reached in with one hand, pulling out a black-colored longsword.

  What the hell!?

  Everyone atop the city was shocked. You were really that poor that you didn’t even have a spatial ring, hiding a sword inside your body?

  Ling Han, however, revealed an astounded look, and muttered, “The legendary nurturing a tool with one’s own body is real?”

  “What’s nurturing a tool with one’s own body?” Zhu Xuan Er asked. She, like Ling Han, was also disguised, so she obviously didn’t call herself Xuan Er and Ling Han as Brother Han or Master Han.

  “Nourishing a Spirit Tool within the body means to use one’s own blood and Qi to nourish the Spirit Tool constantly. This allows the Spirit Tool to become more powerful, and even manifest a tool spirit,” Ling Han said, but immediately shook his head and added, “No matter what Spirit Tool, the moment it’s shaped, it exists for battle. As a vicious object, nourished within the body, it is extremely likely to kill oneself.”

  Nourishing a tool with one’s own body was a risk, but if one could stick it out, then the tool thus nourished would be extremely powerful.

  Atop the city wall, everyone listened to Ling Han’s explanation, nodding repeatedly; some people were also secretly guessing Ling Han’s identity. He clearly looked twenty-four to twenty-five years old yet knew so much secret knowledge; his background was probably extremely remarkable.

  Xuanyuan Zi Guang, however, revealed a curious look, and said, “Nourishing a tool with one’s own body? Hehe, that’s a first; let me try it out.”

  Ju Tian Ge held his sword in hand, and his listless expression was instantly swept clean, emitting a feverish battle intent as he shouted loudly, “As you wish!” He pushed off fiercely and shot towards Xuanyuan Zi Guang. As the black sword was brandished, seventeen flashes of Sword Qi formed, tangling toward Xuanyuan Zi Guang like whips.

  “Interesting,” Xuanyuan Zi Guang muttered, still with one hand behind his back. He flicked gently with his other hand, and a fire tiger appeared, biting at the Sword Qi.

  “What a joke, you want to neutralize my Black Demon Sword?” Ju Ge Tian sneered.

  “Can I not?” Xuanyuan Ziguang said arrogantly. That fire lion swelled up abruptly and became 10 m large, emitting a terrifying baleful presence.

  “Condensing Qi into Ray!” Bai Yuan gaze tightened. “This youngster is truly remarkable, almost forming a ray, yet he intentionally suppressed it, obviously wanting cultivate more flashes of Qi. How truly bold and daring!”

  Rays crushed Qi in quality. At the time, when Rain Emperor cultivated Fist Ray, with the cultivation of the first layer of the Flower Blossom Tier, he fought a ninth layer Flower Blossom Tier warrior and a king tier demonic ape. It was clear how powerful Rays were.

  This could increase the battle prowess of martial artist at the core, but Xuanyuan Zi Guang suppressed the condensing of Ray forcibly. On one hand, it showed his great martial arts talent, and on the other, his great ambition of not settling for 22 flashes of Qi.

  In certain aspects, geniuses were all the same, existing for the sake of breaking the limits.

  This fire lion wasn’t a flash of Qi—it was condensed from twenty-two flashes of Qi. However, it was different from the integratedness of a ray, but was more like a combination.

  Ling Han nodded; the good quality of others could help develop oneself. Xuanyuan Zi Guang’s thought process was very good, simulating Qi into a Ray. This way, he could continue to cultivate Qi while increasing its power—truly remarkable pioneering.

  Xuanyuan Zi Guang and Ju Tian Ge carried out a fierce battle. Both of t
hem held back, one only using one hand, and the other not using Corpse Soldiers. Apparently, if Xuanyuan Zi Guang was forced to use two hands first, then he would be the one at a disadvantage. Conversely, if he could, with one hand, force Ju Tian Ge to use Corpse Soldiers, then he would have the advantage to a certain degree.

  Of course, this advantage wasn’t much, because the Thousand Corpse Sect’s battle prowess mainly relied on Corpse Soldiers. If Xuanyuan Zi Guang could only unleash thirty percent of his battle prowess with one hand, then Ju Tian Ge at most could unleash twenty percent of his battle prowess without using Corpse Soldiers.

  As expected, without battling for ten rounds, Ju Tian Ge was forced to summon Corpse Soldiers.

  Five Corpse Soldiers!

  Flower Blossom Tier’s limit was to control six corpses, and he reached five. Despite it being only one more, when it was near the limit, this small advantage could be infinitely enlarged.

  Five Corpse Soldiers were definitely stronger than four, and not just a by a bit.

  Xuanyuan Zi Guang naturally didn’t dare to be careless anymore, maneuvering both hands to battle against Ju Tian Ge and the five Corpse Soldiers. The outcome of the battle couldn’t be decided in a short while, serving to show how terrifying these two youngsters were.

  “The older generations can’t even compare!”

  “The youngsters nowadays are truly terrifying!”

  “As expected, it’s the prosperous time of martial arts; exceptional talents from the younger generation keep emerging. Unless one was a prodigy of the same generation, one probably wouldn’t be qualified to contend with these youngsters.”

  Atop the city wall, quite a few people cried out, exclaiming at the power of Xuanyuan Zi Guang and Ju Tian Ge.

  “However, it should be rare for such powerful youngsters like them to appear?”

  “Yes, in the middle state, only Yao Hui Yue, Meng Die Wu, and some others that could be counted one’s fingers have reached such heights.”

  “Definitely not beyond ten people,” a very experienced man concluded extremely surely, making everyone convinced as they nodded their heads ceaselessly.

  After Ling Han heard that, he couldn’t help but laugh. He then said, “Hu Niu, show them a little of what you’ve got.”

  “Ok, I’ll show them Niu’s awesomeness!” Hu Niu leapt down the city gates, placed her hands on her hips, and said, “Who wants to fight Niu?”

  After the people of Thousand Corpse Sect looked at each other, they all laughed loudly. This was only a six to seven year old little girl that they could kill by extending a finger. If they were to attack this little girl, then that would be too shameful.

  They all ignored her and overlooked that Hu Niu jumped down from the city wall, not walking out of it.

  However, Bai Yuan revealed an astounded look because he couldn’t see through Hu Niu’s cultivation.

  If she truly was just an ordinary little lady, then how could she possibly jump down from such a high city gate and be alright? The youngsters were careless and overlooked it, but he wouldn’t be. He was much more experienced compared to these youngsters—living cautiously till now was the only secret to becoming a Heaven Tier elite—so he obviously wouldn’t overlook it just because he’d become elderly.

  He pondered, and said, “Bian Hao, you go fight her.”

  “Venerable Bai, Me?” Bian Hao felt wronged—why did he have to go? This was truly just a little girl; taking one step forward was already extremely embarrassing.

  “Don’t be careless,” Bai Yuan warned.

  Bian Hao revealed an astounded expression. Hearing Venerable Bai’s tone, it was as if this little girl was quite remarkable. He finally withdrew the reluctance within his heart, taking large strides forward, and said, “Little girl, you want to fight me?”

  Hu Niu crossed her arms before her chest, and said in a delicate voice, “Not fight, beat!”

  It made many people atop the city wall laugh loudly. This little girl looked delicate like jade, truly attracting people’s affection…

  …while some people with special fetishes began to drool.

  “Hahahaha!” Si Tu Yao and the others laughed loudly, while Bian Hao could no longer remain calm.

  “I’ll let you have one move,” Bian Hao said.

  “Thank you, wunkle.” Hu Niu bowed in a lowly manner. Hanging around Ling Han a lot, she also learned how to trick people.

  Just as Bian Hao was about to nod, a blur flashed before his eyes as a small figure appeared before him. Peng , he felt pain on his face, and his body instantly escaped control, sitting abruptly onto the ground.

  Everyone looked at Hu Niu with shock. This girl had looked like an adorable little princess just now, but in an instant, she unleashed her attack with such a terrifying speed, knocking Bian Hao to the ground; it was as if she wasn’t the same person.

  This clearly wasn’t some little princess, but a small devil!

  “Xixi!” Hu Niu snickered, revealing two rows of snow-white teeth, and said to Bian Hao, “Wuncle, what happened to you, not feeling well?”

  Bian Hao truly wanted to die at this moment, finally understanding that Bai Yuan’s warning wasn’t without reason. This little girl was certainly vicious, and her battle prowess couldn’t be measured with logic. He leapt up again and let out a battle cry. Four Corpse Soldiers instantly arrived all together, attacking towards Hu Niu.

  “Aiyaya, wuncle, weren’t you going to let Niu have one move?” Hu Niu’s figure was agile, running while yelling. Despite the attacks of four Corpse Soldiers coming from all sides, it was like she was taking a stroll, appearing extremely relaxed. Moreover, the little girl wasn’t to be trifled with, either. Her small hand turned into a palm and shot toward a Corpse Soldier.

  So what if Corpse Soldiers were refined hundreds of times? When Hu Niu was only in the Spiritual Pedestal Tier, her claws could tear her target with the destructive power of the Flower Blossom Tier’s two stars battle prowess. Now that she advanced into the Flower Blossom Tier, these claws were naturally even more terrifying.

  With a chi , the skeletal framework that was only slightly inferior to rare metals of the same tier was instantly torn apart with ease, shredded into shattered bone scraps in a few moves by Hu Niu.

  Pu!

  Everyone spurted out; this little girl was too freakish. How could she be so strong? Was this any weaker than Xuanyuan Zi Guang?

  “Amongst the prodigies of the middle state, another person must be added,” the experienced person from before exclaimed.

  “What, didn’t you say middle state’s prodigies weren’t beyond ten?”

  “…”

  The experienced person was humiliatingly proven wrong, and his face instantly flushed. Earlier, he’d said that ten prodigies like Xuanyuan Zi Guang and Ju Tian Ge couldn’t be found in the entire middle state, but now? A random little girl that came out was strong to such a heaven-defying degree.

  After Hu Niu easily took care of the four Corpse Soldiers, Bian Hao could only admit defeat.

  He couldn’t win even with Corpse Soldiers, let alone without their help.

  Hu Niu laughed loudly, and said, “Anyone else? Niu wants to fight ten alone!”

  The side of Thousand Corpse Sect involuntarily sank into silence. Although Bian Hao could only rank at number eight or nine in strength amongst the ten disciples, Hu Niu was too relaxed just now; thus, to suppress this little girl, Ju Tian Ge probably had to be sent out.

  The problem was that Ju Tian Ge was still fighting fiercely with Xuanyuan Ziguang, and it had to wait.

  Bai Yuan could only say, “I’ll count as if you’ve won nine times. For the tenth, the third will fight you after this round.”

  “Hmph, want Niu to wait? Then I won’t play!” Hu Niu stomped her feet in discontent and returned.

  Atop the city wall, everyone’s gazes were filled with shock when they looked towards Hu Niu, and some older figures already wanted to take this little girl as a disciple. This little girl
was so strong now; how terrifying would she become after she grew up?

  Amongst the elites of the world in the future, there was definitely a place for her.

  “What are you guys staring at Hu Niu like that for? No matter how much you guys look, you guys won’t get any food!” Hu Niu swept everyone with a warning glance. Could these people be thinking of the food on her? They were too bad!

  The experienced person began to judge again and concluded, “Middle state’s geniuses… adding this little girl should be all.”

  He seemed to have quite the reputation, so despite being humiliatingly proven wrong once, those words still received the recognition of many people, who started expressing their agreement.

  “Not bad, such a little girl is definitely hard to come by in ten millennia.”

  “Too freakish, absolutely unimaginable!”

  Ling Han listened, couldn’t help but laugh, and said, “Hai Niu, you go down to fight.”

  As Helian Xun Xue heard it, her face instantly turned pale. She hurriedly shook her head, and said, “I can’t, I can’t.”

  “I said you can, so you definitely can! Don’t forget, I gave you a brick, and you can smash with that!” Ling Han encouraged her.

  Helian Xun Xue didn’t know the differences of tiers, or else if she thought she was a normal little girl, she would never dare fight with a Flower Blossom Tier opponent. However, now that she didn’t know, she was fearless, nodding ignorantly.

  In her mind, Ling Han was the first person she saw when she opened her eyes, so she naturally felt close to him and would listen to him.

  Ling Han nodded, and shouted towards the bottom, “We’ve won ninety quotas now, right?”

  Bai Yuan nodded indifferently, and said, “Correct.”

  “Then let’s win a bit more. Next, this big chick will battle.” Ling Han pointed at Helian Xun Xue.

  Instantly, everyone’s gazes moved over; then, they shook their heads simultaneously.

  No way!

  This girl didn’t have a shred of Origin Power fluctuation; wouldn’t letting her take the field to battle just be feeding the opponent?
