Chapter 3888: Merely a single strike
Ling Han leisurely took a bath, then changed into clean clothes, and only then did he walk out of the tent.
However, Liu Chuang was waiting outside, and there were still some outsiders behind him.
‘Heh, are you here to watch the excitement?’
Liu Chuang was proud, and the haze of his previous defeat to Ling Han was swept away. This was natural. He had broken through to Eight Cauldrons, and added with the fact that the Celestial Cauldron had surpa.s.sed the level of Gold, he naturally had explosive confidence, and thought that he was invincible in this world.
“Ling Han, kneel!” he shouted coldly.
Ling Han couldn’t help but laugh in spite of himself. “You’ve only broken through to Eight Cauldrons. What, you think you’re invincible in this world?”
Everyone shook their heads, thinking that Ling Han was too confident.
Just how wide was the gap between Seven Cauldrons and Eight Cauldrons?
In terms of the Galaxy Network’s ranking, a Seven Cauldrons was roughly between 50 and 100, while an Eight Cauldrons was between 10 and 50-only supreme prodigies who had formed nine cauldrons could squeeze into the top 10.
Unfortunately, no one in the North Heavenly Realm managed to form nine cauldrons, so naturally, no one managed to squeeze into the top ten.
It was said that after attaining Nine Cauldrons, when battling, the nine Celestial Cauldrons would appear at the same time, possessing great might. There was no need for them to make a move at all, and they would be able to make elites of Eight Cauldrons fall to the ground.
This was a digression.
Since the North Heavenly Realm didn’t have supreme elites with nine cauldrons, then Eight Cauldrons was the highest grade. At least in the area of the North Heavenly Realm, that was indeed invincible in their cultivation level.
Liu Chuang laughed in spite of himself. He shook his head, “You are just an ant, so how would you know how strong Eight Cauldrons is!”
Ling Han crooked a finger at him, “Come, I will teach you how to behave!”
“Ling Han, you are too arrogant!” Liu Chuang strode towards Ling Han. One after another, the Celestial Cauldrons channelled out. It looked like pure gold, yet had a kind of jade-like halo, which was extremely beautiful.
However, as the Celestial Cauldron shook lightly, everyone’s expressions changed.
This was too terrifying. One after another, vicious auras surged out, causing a chill to rise up from the bottom of one’s heart.
This was the Celestial Cauldron that had surpa.s.sed the Golden Celestial Cauldron. Furthermore, it was eight cauldrons at that. With the two added together, it was as if Liu Chuang had become an invincible G.o.d.
“The current Liu Chuang, what position can he charge up to on the Galaxy Network rankings?”
“I think that even Lu Qi is not that strong.”
“Hiss, then wouldn’t that be in the top twenty, at least?”
“Naturally. Eight Cauldrons is already not inferior to Lu Qi, what more when Liu Chuang’s Celestial Cauldron has advanced another step further?”
“Golden Jade Celestial Cauldron, he has advanced to a higher level!”
Everyone sighed ruefully. Even those who had personally witnessed Ling Han defeat Lu Qi felt that he did not have much of a chance of winning.
That was because Liu Chuang was really too strong.
Liu Chuang walked very slowly, like a cat toying with a mouse. He wanted Ling Han to
experience that deep chill, and only then would he be defeated by him in public, and be looked at with disdain by everyone.
“Submit!” he declared proudly.
Ling Han smiled, and raised his right hand, “To defeat you, I only need one move.”
Arrogant, he was really too arrogant.
Liu Chuang took a deep breath. He planned to use his strongest ultimate move to defeat Ling Han in a single strike.
Right at this moment, Ling Han tapped him lightly.
Zi!
A flash of lightning shot out, its speed ridiculously fast.
Then, Liu Chuang was sent flying. Peng, he blasted a hole into a mountain in the distance, and then disappeared within.
Sand and rocks filled the air, and dust flew into the sky.
Everyone was dumbfounded, staring numbly at Ling Han’s right hand.
With just a snap of his fingers, Liu Chuang was sent flying.
F***, you are too freakish, aren’t you?
That was Eight Cauldrons!
Even Eight Cauldrons was no match for Ling Han. Hiss, could it be that Ling Han was Nine Cauldrons?
—Just think, when Ling Han was still at Six Cauldrons, he was already capable of fighting Lu Qi, who was at Eight Cauldrons, to a tie. Now, not only had he advanced into Seven Cauldrons, the divine light of lightning could match an Imperial Technique.
Thus, even though Ling Han had only snapped his fingers lightly, it was no different from using his full strength to blast out the Demonic Monkey Fists. How difficult would it be to defeat Liu Chuang with a single move?
‘That’s right!’
Thinking of the Demonic Monkey Fists, Ling Han suddenly came to a realization. He turned around and returned to his tent to begin comprehending.
This…
Everyone was speechless. He had defeated an Eight Cauldrons, and actually returned to his tent as if nothing had happened. Just how much did he not take Liu Chuang to heart?
This time, Liu Chuang was truly asking for his own humiliation. Not only had he failed to defeat Ling Han, he had instead been ruthlessly humiliated.
He did not even treat him as a rival!
Only an hour later, Ling Han suddenly erupted into loud laughter.
He had finally grasped the second form of the Demonic Monkey Fists!
This made him very excited, because this was an Imperial Technique.
He mulled over it carefully. The two styles of Demonic Monkey Fists were connected from the beginning to the end. If they were used separately, then the might of the first style and the second style would not be much different. However, if they were used together, the might of the second style would be double that of the first style.
Ling Han couldn’t help but feel expectant. Then what if he used three or four styles consecutively, or even nine styles in fact? Could the might still be stacked like this?
“Ling Han!” At this moment, an impatient shout was heard from outside.
Ling Han opened his tent and saw that it was Zhou Miyang who was standing outside.
“Why aren’t you calling me uncle?” Ling Han asked calmly.
His relations.h.i.+p with Zhou Mi was one of equals, so it was disrespectful for Zhou Miyang to address him directly by name.
Zhou Miyang humphed, naturally extremely displeased, but when he recalled his father’s instructions, he still lowered his head, and said, “My father has been waiting for you for a
very long time.”
“Oh.”
Ling Han nodded, and did not explain, nor did he say anything to apologize, which made Zhou
Miyang even more furious.
They went to see Zhou Mi. In truth, it was not a big deal. The Zhou Clan had already reorganized themselves, and they could continue to sweep through the remaining three
Demonic Beasts.
The sixth beast king was a late stage Core Formation Tier great beast. Of course, it wasn’t easy
to deal with either. More importantly, it would also summon its lackeys, attracting beast tides all over the mountains and plains.
Though this beast king was very quickly killed, the beast tide had already formed, and still caused great damage.
Right, this time, they needed more time to recover.
Ling Han walked in the mountains. He was searching for divine substance. This time, he definitely wouldn’t open it again. Instead, he would store it away for the empress, Hu Niu,
and the others.
Of course, he wouldn’t complain about having too much of such good stuff.
Don’t say, Ling Han’s luck was really not bad. After roaming around in the mountains for
three days, he actually found two portions of divine substance. If this was known to others, they would definitely die of envy.
Everyone more or less had some gains. Some had obtained Celestial medicines, while others had obtained divine substances, but no one had obtained the even more precious celestial light aside from Ling Han, but this had not been obtained from the Heavenly Clouds
Mountain.
After resting for a few days, the sweep continued.
After a battle, everyone practically did not expend any energy.
“Continue, kill the last beast king, and the Heavenly Clouds Mountains will be completely cleared,” Zhou Mi said. This was the long-cherished wish of more than ten generations of the Zhou Clan. Now, it was only a sliver away from being fulfilled, which naturally excited the members of the Zhou Clan, though they had also paid the price of several hundred lives for it. Zhou Miyang glanced at Ling Han, and a smile appeared at the corners of his lips. However, it was filled with killing intent. Thus, he quickly withdrew his smile. Ling Han shook his head, and said, “I’ll leave the final beast king to you guys.”
