Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao c1-1294

  With them making such a huge commotion with their fight at the gate, it was naturally impossible that no one would have seen it. However, those who passed merely acted like they had seen nothing. They seemed to be very used to this kind of battles.

  Chaos!

  This was the common feature of the majority of places. You should not think that the whole world was peaceful and prosperous just because the rules in the Imperial Capital were well-enforced.

  Ling Han and Shui Yanyu entered the town. They first went to the harbor, and found out that the ships here would only leave once every three days. It just so happened that the last ship had left yesterday. Hence, if they wanted to go out to sea, they would have to wait two days.

  Thus, the duo first went to seek out accommodation.

  Naturally, they could not possibly stay at an inn belonging to the Black Five Gang. Ling Han deliberately sought out an inn belonging to the Great Chariot Gang. Since the two forces were engaged in such heated competition, he would not need to worry that the Great Chariot Gang would collaborate with the Black Five Gang to rob and kill them in the middle of the night even if he had offended them.

  When they entered the inn, Shui Yanyu’s sexy and enchanting figure immediately drew a considerable number of looks, and there were some that did not even bother to conceal the desire hidden in their depths.

  Chapter 1001 - Bad Mouth

  Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

  Beautiful women were the most common resource on the Joint Peace Planet. As long as one reached the Mountain River Tier, it was really much too easy to take a beautiful woman as wife.

  However, beautiful women could still be divided into different categories. A difference in identity and status would lead to a different level of the attractiveness of a beautiful woman.

  A pretty daughter of a humble family and a royal princess were both women, but how could the feeling of conquering them be the same?

  Shui Yanyu, meanwhile, was not only breathtakingly beautiful, she also had a graceful air about her. Every move she made was incredibly graceful and seductive, and would cause others to become infatuated and fall head over heels in love with her. Added with her cultivation level of Immortal level, she had naturally become the focus of attention of all those around them.

  Who would not be enchanted upon seeing such a seductive beauty?

  “What a beautiful girl!”

  “Just look at that backside, both round and erect. I really want to go up and give it a touch.”

  “Hehe, her breasts are quite big too. I probably wouldn’t be able to take hold of one with just one hand.”

  There were very many people eating in the hall, and some were already spouting out obscene words.

  Ling Han’s eyes froze over, and focused on one of them.

  “Brat, what are you looking at?” It was a middle-aged man that looked to be in about his forties; he had a thick, solid build and a fierce face, yet he was actually wearing a long bright red robe, making him seem extremely out of place.

  He pointed at Ling Han, and threatened, “If you continue to look, I’ll beat you to death!”

  “Ling Han!” Shui Yanyu gripped onto him, not wanting him to fight in this place.

  Ling Han shook his head, and pulled her hand away. Then, he strolled over to the middle-aged man.

  “Brat, are you having a great flash of anger for that beauty?” the middle-aged man sneered. “You are probably a spoilt young master from some clan, right? That’s why you obtained such a beauty! Tsk, without that kind of background, how could you have qualified?”

  He was filled with jealousy, his eyes slightly bloodshot. Just think, he was in the high extreme of the Mountain River Tier, yet absolutely did not have Ling Han’s good fortune with women.

  “You’re already so old, yet all your years of experience might as well have been wasted on a dog. Since you speak with no thought at all, what use is there for you to have this mouth?” Ling Han strode over, his face very icy.

  Since he and Shui Yanyu were going to stay here for two days, then if he did not make his position clear, it was inevitable that these people would run their mouths and take advantage of Shui Yanyu with their words.

  “What a sharp mouth!” The middle-aged man smirked coldly. “Young man, I will teach you well today: without your background and your clan, you are nothing!”

  The two were about to erupt into a fight at any moment, yet the others were merely laughing on the sidelines, watching the show. Since this matter did not concern them, it was natural that no one would speak out. Furthermore, the innkeeper did not call a halt, either. Their duty was only to prevent outsiders from coming to make trouble. Since these two themselves wanted to fight, then it was all right even if one of them died.

  Of course, if either the middle-aged man or Ling Han asked for help, they would still interfere to stop the battle.

  Ling Han had already come close. He was angered, his aura lightly surging, and possessing an intimidating might. This was because his divine sense had far surpassed any ordinary medium extreme cultivator’s, and had also been tempered multiple times by the Indestructible Heaven’s Scroll, so it was naturally like a divine weapon on its own.

  “You seek death!!” The middle-aged man suddenly struck out with a palm strike, directly aiming for the top of Ling Han’s head.

  Though he said he wanted to teach Ling Han a lesson, his move was meant to be fatal. Whoever actually believed his words was really much too naive.

  Ling Han humphed, and similarly struck out with a palm, heading straight for the palm that the middle-aged man had shot at him.

  Pa!

  The two palms crashed into each other. Suddenly, a thunderous sound rang out, and a shock wave visible to the eye surged out from where the two fighters’ palms collided. Instantly, a few tables in the surroundings were flipped over.

  “Ah…” The middle-aged man released a pained howl. He only felt as if he had delivered a palm strike straight at a piece of Godly metal, which was an impact strong enough to crack the bones in his hand. The suffering was indescribable. He looked at Ling Han in shock. No matter what, he could not believe that this young man who was only in the medium extreme would actually possess such massive strength.

  He was in the early stage of the high extreme!

  He took a step back, and gripped his right hand into a fist, striking out once more at Ling Han.

  Ling Han similarly gripped his hand into a fist, and the two fists collided.

  Peng!

  Instantly, the middle-aged man’s figure swayed. He retreated a total of seven steps successively, and crashed into the table behind him. Due to the impact from the power he had used to protect his body, the table was directly turned into pieces and sawdust.

  He still had not stopped his retreat, but the person sitting at that side stretched out his hand in a shove, and finally stopped his movement.

  He hissed through his teeth, then raised his hand, and saw that part of his fist had actually caved in. Obviously, his bones had been broken. Otherwise, this kind of wound could not possibly have appeared.

  Curses, how could there possibly exist this kind of physique?

  The middle-aged man was both astonished and infuriated. In the first place, cultivators were most wary of battling at close quarters, and he was bullying Ling Han because the latter’s cultivation level was below his. He had not thought it’d be he who was on the losing side in these two exchanges, which made him feel incredible regret.

  This brat had to have concentrated on cultivating his physique, and that was why his defenses were so terrifying!

  He was even more certain of Ling Han’s “identity” now. The latter surely was the heir of some great clan, and that was why he had so many resources to temper his physique. It should be known that the cost of boosting the physique to Immortal level was frighteningly high. Every day, he would have to bathe himself in precious divine medicine, and only after countless
years had passed could he be successful.

  Otherwise, why would there be so few that had cultivated their physique to Immortal level if everyone knew that it was very beneficial to have a tough physique?

  It was not that they did not want to, it was that they could not afford to!

  The middle-aged man was almost mad with jealousy. This young man’s cultivation level was lower than his, yet he possessed the kind of physique he could only dream about, and also had a woman that he wanted to push down just from seeing her. It was all because of his background, and because he had a wealthy noble clan to support him.

  “Die!” he howled loudly. Weng , a sound wave surged out of his mouth, and actually formed a human figure that was brandishing a staff. The human figure waved the staff, and struck out at Ling Han’s head.

  He had finally learnt his lesson, and drawn out the distance between himself and Ling Han to finally deliver this attack.

  ‘A sound-type martial arts technique?’

  Ling Han was slightly surprised. This kind of martial arts technique was very rare, and he had never thought that he would encounter it when he had just arrived in this place. However, no matter what kind of martial arts technique it was, it was ultimately dependent on the abilities of the user. Thus, he was naturally unafraid.

  Xiu, he charged over, wanting to directly combat the root of the problem.

  The human figure that was formed from sound waves struck. Ling Han merely raised his hand, catching the staff. Peng , his figure slightly paused, but the force of this strike had also been dissipated.

  He looked at his arm, and saw that his sleeve had burst open; there was also a light mark left behind on his skin.

  The opponent was a high extreme cultivator, after all, so he should not be underestimated.

  He merely sighed ruefully, yet caused the spectators to be incomparably astonished.

  “Hey, hey, hey. This brat is only in the medium extreme, yet he can actually face Hu Qiwei, who is in the early stage of the high extreme, directly and even cause a little loss to Hu Qiwei? His abilities are really quite shocking.”

  “He has to be a one-star genius at least!”

  “His physique is even more astonishing. He must be a member of an influential clan, and has thus used various divine medicines to temper his physique since childhood.”

  Their thoughts were more or less the same as those of the middle-aged man, Hu Qiwei. They all were completely certain that Ling Han was a member of a powerful clan, which was why he possessed such a tough physique, and perhaps he was able to become a one-star genius even more because of this factor.

  Those that were trying to make a living here were basically all lone cultivators, who did not have a very good background. All of a sudden, they were filled with envy towards Ling Han.

  Chapter 1002 - Beaten until Bursting

  “Die! Die! Die!” As Hu Qiwei moved continuously, he continued to open his mouth to roar. Sound waves blasted out one after another, and they all formed into human figures, brandishing staffs in attack towards Ling Han.

  Peng, peng, peng, peng. One staff strike followed after another. Though they could not damage Ling Han, it was still an attack of an elite in the high extreme in the end. Hence, Ling Han was stopped from advancing further, and he could not get near Hu Qiwei.

  “Hahahaha, young man, your good background only allowed your foundations to surpass others, but fighting would still have to depend on experience!” Hu Qiwei exclaimed, laughing loudly. “I have battled all the way until today, and it has already been 210,000 years. How could you compare with me?”

  Ling Han could not help but stare. To a person that had come from a small world, who was used to the limits of a normal lifespan, even a Shattering Void Tier cultivator would only be able to live around 1,000 years or so. Even if he himself had already leaped into the medium extreme, he had still not placed himself on that same level.

  … His maximum lifespan had already reached 200,000 years. From this aspect, his relative age was really frighteningly young.

  He smiled faintly, and asked, “Is that right?”

  “Just wait until I shatter that handsome face of yours, and we’ll see if you can still smile like this!” Hu Qiwei inhaled a mouthful, and then suddenly roared loudly. Weng , this time, the human figure made of sound waves that appeared was at least three times bigger than before, and was wielding a sharp sword.

  The sound wave human surged over, and brandished his sword in a stab aimed directly at Ling Han’s face.

  Ling Han humphed, stretched out his right hand, and weng , the divine patterns of gravity were activated with a soft press. This figure formed of sound waves instantly dropped, its movements completely distorted.

  Peng!

  This sword from the sound wave human directly sliced into the ground, instantly cutting a massive hole in the wooden floor. Dust filled the air, causing a great many people to wave their hands to stop the intrusion of dust into their space.

  However, there were still a few people that were seated motionlessly. When the dust floated in their direction, it was stopped by an endless barrier, and could not go any further.

  Those people looked ordinary, but if one took a closer look, they would realize that a frightening aura was hidden in their bodies. The moment it exploded, they could easily crush any Mountain River Tier cultivator to dust.

  They were all elites of the Sun Moon Tier.

  “What!?” Hu Qiwei was shocked. That attack just now was one of his most powerful, yet was easily dispersed just with Ling Han raising his hand. This was unacceptable to him.

  Ling Han kept up the attack, and delivered a punch.

  “Humph!” Though Hu Qiwei was stunned, he would not stand there and wait to be killed. He hurriedly retreated, and opened his mouth to shoot out another sound attack.

  However, now that Ling Han had gotten serious, what threat could these sound waves pose to him?

  The divine patterns of gravity activated, and these sound waves were all compressed, or even shattered completely. It should be known that a Mountain River Stone with a special attribute was extremely valuable, and the difficulty of obtaining one was very high, so how could their power be something ordinary?

  Ling Han once again used the divine patterns of gravity to affect Hu Qiwei’s movement technique, and instantly narrowed the distance between the two of them, his fist heavily crashing down.

  Hu Qiwei stretched out his arms to parry, but with the effect of gravity, his actions were still a little too slow. Ling Han’s fist forcefully invaded his defenses, and fell heavily on his face. Immediately, the muscles on his face rolled out in multiple waves, and then split apart with a pa .

  He was sent flying, and just when he was about to collide with a pillar, a person jumped up and stretched out a hand to catch him. Otherwise, if the pillar broke due to the impact from the collision, this building could possibly collapse.

  When everyone looked once more at Hu Qiwei, they couldn’t help but be stunned. Half of his face had been reduced to nothing, and they could clearly see broken bones and torn flesh, which made for a very bloody scene.

  “Enough. If the battle continues, it will really result in death.” The one that had caught Hu Qiwei was an old man with a white beard. Previously, no one had paid him any attention, yet he had appeared so suddenly just like this.

  He was an elite of the Sun Moon Tier, and at this moment, his aura was fully on display. Behind him, there was a complete set of Sun and Moon, showing that he was at the peak stage of the low extreme of the Sun Moon Tier.

  “Elder Qian!”

  “Greetings, Elder Qian!”

  A considerable number paid their respects. This old man had the surname of Qian, and his given name was Yi. He was an elder of the Great Chariot Gang. Even though he looked peaceful and kind, he was well known for his violent and cruel ways. The number that died in his hands was uncountable.r />
  Ling Han did not use the opportunity to pursue the matter further. He was only trying to make his position clear to stop others from slandering and tossing obscenities at Shui Yanyu. He nodded slightly at Qian Yi, then walked to the counter, and said, “We would like accommodations.”

  “One room or two?” the innkeeper asked.

  “One.”

  “Two!”

  The former reply was from Ling Han, but Shui Yanyu hurriedly corrected him.

  “One!” Ling Han placed his arm around Shui Yanyu, causing her body to soften, and the rebuttal she was just about to say became a pair of dazed eyes, electrifying enough to melt anyone’s heart.

  “The accommodations here cost a True Origin Stone per day. While you are in our inn, we guarantee your safety. Of course, if you yourself want to fight with others, that is a different story. Please first pay for 10 days in advance. If you do not stay for the full duration, we will not be refunding the remaining amount. 10 days later, if you still want to continue staying here, then you will have to pay another 10 True Origin Stones,” the innkeeper said.

  How black-hearted!

  The ships here left once every three days, and most people would only stay for two to three days. But in this place, they would have to pay the rent every 10 days, and there was no refund, either.

  Ling Han drew out 10 True Origin Stones and handed them over. This was only a paltry sum to him, and he really did not care much for it.

  “Master, I’ll lead the way!” one of the workers said from the sidelines.

  He led Ling Han and Shui Yanyu up the stairs. There was a total of five floors, and they went to the fourth.

  The room could definitely not be considered lavish or luxurious at all, but the purpose of staying in an inn was for the sake of safety. Those that stayed here obtained the protection of the Great Chariot Gang. Unless the Yang Clan came to ask for them personally, this place was absolutely safe.
