Chapter 4046: Queue for a Challenge
The Nine Mountains Venerate grinned, and said, “Really?”
With a shake of his right hand, an ancient-looking umbrella appeared. It was definitely quite old.
“F***, Nine Suns Parasol!”
“Saint Tool!”
Seeing this umbrella, all the Venerate Tier elites took a few steps back. Even Luo Wuding revealed a shocked expression.
The Nine Suns Parasol was a Saint Tool that had been personally forged by the Nine Suns Saint. It had accompanied the Nine Suns Saint to his battles all over the world. In fact, it had even defeated the Ancestral King Lingtian before. Just how domineering was this?
A Venerate Tier wielding a Saint Tool was enough to allow the Saint Tool to unleash its full might for a short period of time. Killing a Venerate Tier would be as easy as harvesting weeds for him. How could these Venerate Tiers not be stunned?
However, everyone knew that the Nine Mountains Venerate wouldn’t really kill someone with a Saint Tool. This was because Venerate Tier elites all had powerful backgrounds. Some of them had even come from the Imperial Clan. If they were really killed, then there would be a great many Venerate Tiers carrying the Saint Tool or even the Imperial Weapon and charge into the Nine Suns Holy Land.
Thus, this was only a form of intimidation, and also a statement of stand. If anyone dared to touch Ling Han, then they would have to face the fury of the Saint Tool.
Who would have thought that the Nine Mountains Venerate would actually bring a Saint Tool with him when he went out this time? Naturally, everyone was stunned.
“Nine Mountains, you’re really ruthless!” the Dragon Seventh Venerate said. His tone was slightly strange. It was unknown whether he was sighing at the Nine Mountains Venerate’s resoluteness or venting his displeasure.
“Now, I can take my people and leave, right?” the Nine Mountains Venerate asked calmly. “Wait!” The Dragon Seventh Venerate spoke again, “Nine Mountains, you have the Saint Tool in your possession, and your present strength is indeed enough to suppress everyone. However, you can protect this boy once, but can you do the same twice, or thrice? Will you stay by this boy’s side for all eternity?”
“What do you mean by this?” The Nine Mountains Venerate said with a frown. There was already anger in his voice.
Yet the Dragon Seventh Venerate was unafraid, and said, “Previously, this boy obtained the inheritance of the Divine Rain Venerate, so it can only be considered luck, and not due to strength. Thus, now, let others challenge him. If it is proven that his strength is undisputed, and he is worthy of this inheritance, then I will approve of him.”
“That’s right,” Grandma Zijin also spoke up, “This brat is only slightly proficient with formation techniques, and just happened to seize this opportunity. He is not showing his strength at all.”
“Hehe, I too think that this is only fair, and give the others a chance.”
All the Venerate Tier elites expressed their stand, wanting Ling Han to accept everyone’s challenge, proving that he indeed had the ability to obtain this inheritance, and was not relying on luck, and the fact that he just happened to know some formation techniques. Ling Han smiled, and said, “Sure, in a battle of equals, who would I be afraid of?”
The Nine Mountains Venerate had already won him a chance for a fair battle. Next, it would be up to him.
Hearing these words, the Nine Mountains Venerate couldn’t help but turn to look at Ling Han.
Ling Han did not speak, and merely nodded, his face filled with confidence.
“All right, who will challenge this junior?” the Dragon Seventh Venerate asked.
“I’ll go!”
“I’ll go!”
“Let me!”
Everyone scrambled over each other. Ling Han was indeed freakish, but firstly, there was no formation for Ling Han to borrow the power of, and secondly, he was only in the early stage of the Core Formation Tier, so how strong could his battle prowess be?
“Don’t be anxious, don’t be anxious!” The large black dog immediately jumped out, “If you want to challenge my Little Han, that’s fine. Show me the stakes!”
Stakes?
Everyone was stunned. What was the meaning of this?
“Oh, if you win, you’ll be able to obtain Little Han’s treasure, but if you lose, you can leave without a second thought? How could there be such a good thing!” The large black dog shook his head, “Take out the stakes, and if you win, you can take it away along with your winnings, but if you lose, I’m sorry, but leave the stakes behind!”
This sounded very logical, but why did it exude an air of sordidness?
Ling Han didn’t say anything. With the large black dog around, the task of playing the bad guy was naturally up to him.
“All right, let me!” A Core Formation Tier cultivator jumped out. He was in the late stage of the Core Formation Tier, while his abilities were as high as Fifteenth Heaven. Naturally, he thought that he would definitely win, so he didn’t mind taking out the stakes. In any case, he could take it back.
He took out a treasured ginseng. This was a Celestial medicine that could revive one’s blood and Qi, and could save one’s life at critical moments.
“Come, come, come. Those who want to issue a challenge, come and register with Grandpa Dog. Those who do not register are not allowed to partic.i.p.ate.” The large black dog was all smiles, as if he was manning a new shop that had opened. He was really very cordial.
This made people want to beat it up. They weren’t wealth-delivering boys, so why were you so happy?
“Ling Han, admit defeat obediently. Don’t waste both of our time,” the Core Formation Tier
said.
“Next,” Ling Han said.
“You!” The Core Formation Tier cultivator almost exploded in fury. ‘I’ve just stepped onto the stage, and you’re already saying ‘next’. Just how much are you looking down on me?’
Peng!
But he had not even finished this thought, when he saw an iron fist strike towards him, sending him flying.
Pa, he fell onto the ground, already unconscious.
Defeat.
“Come, come, come. Next.” The large black dog’s eyes swept over them, and pointed at a
person, “Brother, it’s your turn.”
The cultivator from the Core Formation Tier revealed a solemn expression. He was a consummate level cultivator from the Core Formation Tier, and his battle prowess had already surpa.s.sed 20 Heavens. However, Ling Han had won with a single punch. This battle prowess was a little shocking.
How could a mere early stage of the Core Formation Tier cultivator be so strong?
“Apologies, I’m not in the early stage of the Core Formation Tier. I advanced into the middle stage of the Core Formation Tier a few months ago,” Ling Han kindly explained.
‘Motherf*cker!’
This caused everyone to curse internally. With how freakish Ling Han was, taking this step was enough to increase his battle prowess by four to five Heavens. However, no matter how strong he was, he was only in the middle stage of the Core
Formation Tier.
The second Core Formation Tier cultivator stepped into the air. His battle prowess had reached the 21st Heaven, and he thought that he had a good chance of winning.
“I will defeat you!” he shouted loudly, and launched an attack from the skies. This person was quite cautious. First, he used long-distance attacks to test Ling Han’s
strength.
Ling Han let out a battle cry, and also rose into the air, charging over against the other’s
firepower.
In the three months that the large black dog had been away, he had refined all the natural treasures on him. The Primal Chaos Celestial Core had become a whole lot stronger than before, and his base power was no longer Fifteenth Heaven, but Eighteenth Heaven!
Boom, Ling Han had already arrived, and shot out a punch. “Haha, I have to admit, you really are extraordinary. Not long after advancing into the middle stage of the Core Formation Tier, your battle prowess has already reached the 20th Heaven!” The second Core Formation Tier said coldly, “However, my battle prowess is 21 Heavens!”
After probing Ling Han several times, he also found out about Ling Han’s strength. Naturally,
he withdrew his cautiousness, and faced Ling Han head-on.
Ling Han smiled. The Primal Chaos Celestial Core activated, causing the other’s battle
prowess to instantly decrease by three Heavens.
Peng!
The two of them exchanged a blow, and that Core Formation Tier elite was immediately sent
flying. He was completely no match for Ling Han.
There was a difference of two Heavens between their battle prowess, and he didn’t have the
Primal Chaos Celestial Core that could absorb the power of attacks. If he wasn’t sent flying,
who would?
However, in everyone’s eyes, this was filled with comical effects.
…Previously, the Core Formation Tier cultivator had been praising himself and looking down
on Ling Han. In the end, Ling Han sent him flying with a single punch. This was practically a
big joke.
However, this also surprised everyone. Ling Han’s battle prowess was too terrifying, wasn’t
it?
