The Good Team

As Hao Ren proceeded ten meters forward, he came to a door with a sign that read, “Supreme King.”
After Hao Ren opened the Tang-style sliding door, he noticed that the room wasn’t as big as he thought it would be. It was just a room bigger than ten square meters with a giant door.
In the middle of the room, there was a round altar made of materials that looked like gold and wood.
The young disciple who led Hao Ren into the room took two crystal-clear jades out of his chest pocket and put them into the dent of the round altar.
Suddenly, the dark round altar started s.h.i.+ning.
If a cultivator who was on or above Fifth Heaven saw this scene, he would have screamed: “Two top-tier spirit stones for a small, short-distance teleportation array? Such a waste!
“This room is only a teleportation point. The real cultivation site is located somewhere else,” the young disciple said to Hao Ren.
Hao Ren now knew that this young disciple was also a member of East Ocean. Furthermore, his level was definitely higher than Hao Ren’s, and that was why Hao Ren couldn’t observe his true strength.
Hao Ren fixed his s.h.i.+rt and stepped onto the round altar.
As the young disciple started filling the round altar with his Nature Essence to activate the two spirit stones, Hao Ren suddenly felt a moment of dizziness. When he looked around again, Hao Ren found himself standing on top of another round altar in a rural area.
A disciple from the Sun Yun Martial Art Dojo was standing right beside the round altar, responsible for guarding the teleportation array.
Beside him was tens of white spirit stones, and he was cultivating with his eyes closed. As Hao Ren appeared, the disciple raised his hands towards him.
“Where is this place?” Hao Ren asked.
“This valley is in the outskirt of East Ocean City. When Gongzi finishes cultivating, you can go back to the city anytime you want,” he replied to Hao Ren.
Not everyone knew that Hao Ren was the East Ocean Fuma, especially these low-ranked soldiers. Like the cultivator who was guarding the teleportation array, he had no idea that the Fuma was standing right in front of him. He thought Hao Ren was just a normal Zhen-level cultivator. Therefore, his att.i.tude wasn’t particularly respectful either.
Of course, Hao Ren didn’t mind this. As he saw the young disciple close his eyes and start cultivating once again, he walked towards a plot of flat ground in the valley.
Shallow blue lights surrounded the border of the valley. Hao Ren guessed that the cultivation site was protected by an array so that even when an ordinary human entered the mountain, he or she would not be able to enter the site.
As Little White woke up from a nap, it started jumping up and down in the hidden s.p.a.ce. When Hao Ren released it from the necklace, it started running around in the valley.
However, a moment later, Little White lost its interest as it realized the valley was nothing special. It started walking toward Hao Ren with its curled-up tail. It then raised its head and started sticking out its tongue, telling Hao Ren that it wanted some elixir pills.
“Little White, turn big and go over there 100 meters away!” Hao Ren picked it up by its ear and threw it a few meters ahead.
Little White didn’t seem to understand and thought Hao Ren was playing with it. So, it ran back to Hao Ren excitingly.
“Go, go, go, go there!” Hao Ren gently kicked its belly.
Little White decided to hug Hao Ren’s leg and act like a spoiled pet.
“d.a.m.n, I’m not playing with you!” Hao Ren grabbed its body again and threw it to the front.
Little White rolled in the air. Then, when it was about to hit the ground, its body suddenly turned big!
Bang!
Little White’s huge body hit the ground and created a small pit!
Before it could steady itself, Hao Ren released a water-elemental sword energy from his finger and shot it towards Little White.
Little White looked at Hao Ren innocently; it could not believe that its master, who normally treated it well, would suddenly attack it!
As it could feel the sword energy flying toward it, Little White rolled on the ground lazily and avoided the attack.
“Caring for nothing but eating, it is time to train you!” Hao Ren released another gold-elemental sword energy.
Little White finally realized that Hao Ren wasn’t playing with it. Therefore, it immediately moved its b.u.t.t and tried to avoid the sharp sword energy.
The sword energy hit the rock behind Little White and left a mark.
Hao Ren lowered the power of the sword energies to the minimal. Therefore, even if Little White got hit, it would not suffer any injuries but would only feel the pain.
Since Little White was scared of pain, it would not let these sword energies touch it.
If comparing Little White’s strength to Hao Ren’s, it would be stronger. However, it was too lazy, and that was why Hao Ren had to spur it on.
Hao Ren released two sword energies once again. Little White jumped high up into the air and flipped beautifully as it avoided the two sword energies!
However, when it landed on the ground, it stuck out its tongue and started panting.
Although it has been eating elixir pills every day, it was always sleeping. Because of its lack of exercises, Little White had gained weight since the last time it was released from the Sky Mountain Lotus Cave!
“It won’t be good if I don’t force it to lose weight!”
As Hao Ren thought about it, he shot three sword energies continuously.
Little White rushed to hide, but a wood-elemental sword energy still hit its b.u.t.t, causing some pain.
Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!
Hao Ren did not give it any chance to rest as he released three more sword energies.
Boom! Little White’s four gold paws suddenly shot out flames, and it flew higher into the air.
“Just because I can’t beat you, doesn’t mean I can’t run!”
Little White stuck its tail up and quickly flew high up into the air.
Yet, Hao Ren did not show any mercy and continued to shoot two fire-elemental sword energies toward Little White!
Little White flew at an extremely fast speed; its flying speed seemed more than two times faster than before! Now, Hao Ren knew that it was even lazy flying him before.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Hao Ren threw ten sword energies and created an ‘escape-proof’ net, blocking Little White from all directions!
As Little White realized there was no way it could fly over the sword energies, it gave its best and tried desperately to fly higher.
However, with a loud banging noise, Little White’s head hit the invisible ceiling as it has flown to the end of the protection array!
Slas.h.!.+ Slas.h.!.+ Slas.h.!.+ Slas.h.!.+
Four sword energies directly hit its belly!
Little White grimaced in pain as it flapped its paws. It flipped twice in the air and spat out fire toward Hao Ren, who was on the ground!
Desperate little doggy would bite! Not to mention that Little White was a Bin-level spirit beast!
“If a spirit beast does not show power, you will think I am a little puppy!”
A fireball flew toward Hao Ren at an extreme speed.
“Alright!” Hao Ren steadied himself as his hands started sparkling, and he caught the fireball, which was shot as a protest by Little White!
Hundun Lightning could break the five elements of the world. Little White’s fireball was made from fire elements.
The fireball attack broke apart instantly and was turned into pure elements. Hao Ren then used the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll to absorb the elements!
At the same time, he waved his left hand and shot five sword energies toward Little White again!
As Little White realized it couldn’t escape, it decided not to dodge anymore. It roared and spat fire!
The fire melted all five sword energies and flew toward Hao Ren!
Water-Elemental Array Formation!
Sixteen pure water-elemental sword energies formed a line and flew through the fire clouds!
Water countered fire!
The water-elemental sword energies created a big hole in the middle of the fire cloud, and the forces of the sword energies’ rotation put out the fire and continued to fly towards Little White!
Little White has its black eyes wide open, and it’s ‘spirit beast potential’ erupted once again. It spat fire and formed many arrows as it was imitating Hao Ren’s sword energies.
Two ten meters long arrow collided in mid-air!
Bang…
The white essence and the red essence formed two spheres and started spreading outwards! And the forces caused by the collision destroyed and broke the rocks and trees in the surrounding area.
The cultivator, who was guarding the teleportation array and was resting with his eyes shut, opened his eyes as he felt the entire valley shake. He has seen cultivators practicing by themselves or with each other but never with a spirit beast!
Although there were spirit beasts inside the Dragon Palace, they were all low-level spirit beasts. Those who could spit fire would be considered a high-level spirit beast!
Shoo! Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!… Seven sword energies were shot toward Little White once again.
The cultivator shockingly looked at Hao Ren who was on the ground shooting swords energies. “What kind of technique is that?”
“His body is covered in the blue light, but he was using the techniques of five different elements. Does he practice a five-elemental technique? ”
Little White, who was in the air, spat fire again!
Spirit beasts were tamed demon beasts, the fire they spat was no ordinary five-elements flames!
The hot sizzling fire burnt the seven sword energies to ashes in an instant! The fireball was rotating at an extreme speed and continued flying towards Hao Ren!
Little White started to use its full strength as Hao Ren had made it very desperate!
Hao Ren noticed that the fireball was extremely powerful. Therefore, he would not dare to catch it. Instead, he moved aside immediately, avoiding the attack. It seemed like Little White held back a little as the fireball was powerful but slow.
Boom!
The fireball hit the ground and created a four-meter wide huge pit in the valley!
The cultivator who was guarding the teleportation array was left speechless. “That… Is that really what a Zhen-level cultivator’s power looks like?”
“Even the fireball shot by the spirit beast has reached the power of the Zhen-level! I’m afraid that this young-looking cultivator has the power of Kun-level!”
Roar! Roar!
Little White was a bit angered as it raised its head in mid-air.
The fireball attack was almost as strong as ‘Samadhi True Flame,’ which was beyond the five elements. The attack was comparable to Hao Ren’s ‘Hundun Lightning’!
In the valley, essence fluctuation came wave after wave. Hao Ren could feel that Little White was consuming Nature Essence to pill itself up!
Last time when they were fighting against Zeng Yitao, it couldn’t supplement its essence. And now, inside the protection array, it could supplement its essence from the protection array anytime it wanted.
Its black mouth started glowing red as it was preparing for the next round of attack!
Little White absorbed the whirlpool-shaped essence, and its next attack would be at least five or six times stronger!
Wawawa! Wawawa!
80 sword energies formed instantly around Hao Ren’s body.
As Hao Ren has reached Zhen-level, he could use the One-line Snake Array Formation that was beyond the basic array formations. The reason why he came to this huge practice arena was to learn how to use this sword array.
80 sword energies appeared out of Hao Ren’s body and were floating around his body. The sword energies were pointing upwards and started to move slowly as if Hao Ren was the reincarnation of a sword G.o.d!
The cultivator who was guarding the teleportation array has never seen such array formation before. He was so mesmerized that he couldn’t breathe.
Roar!
Little White released the fireball!
The fireball started expanding into a giant, terrifying fireball with a diameter of one meter!
The burning heat was tumbling down and was about to burn everything!
Although Hao Ren was a hundred meters away from the heat, his hair suddenly turned dry as if it was going to start burning! This was the power of the ‘Samadhi True Flame.’
The cultivator who was guarding the teleportation array hurriedly placed two high-tier spirit stones into the round altar. They were risking their lives, not practicing!
Half of the valley would be gone if the giant fireball hit the ground!
It was at this moment Hao Ren’s 80 sword energies flew up at the same time!
One-line Snake Array Formation!
The five-elemental swords energies meshed together and formed a head and a tail as they started making some creaking noise!
In a dazzling light, 80 sword energies formed a long snake and started rus.h.i.+ng towards the fireball!
Bang!
The fireball collided with the sword energies!
The sharp sword array went through the fireball and created a big hole in the middle. Yet, the fireball continued to fall!
Bang! The fireball hit the ground and created a huge pit that had a diameter of ten meters!
Although Hao Ren dodged it immediately, some of his hair was burned, and a few holes appeared on his clothes because of the fire!
Above the sky, the sword energies continued to shoot towards Little White!
“Dispersion!” Hao Ren controlled the sword energies with his mind. The sword energies that were all lined-up before were broken up into 80 sword energies with different colors.
It was at the moment, Hao Ren realized that his skill of controlling the sword energies has improved to another level. Not only could he release and pull back the sword energies, but he could also…
High up in the air, Little White was surrounded by 80 rotating sword energies!
As Hao Ren learned how to use the One-line Snake Array Formation, he could now control the sword energies freely!
The cultivator who was guarding the teleportation array was utterly shocked. “Not only could this twenty years old cultivator release 80 sword energies, but he could also control them to go anywhere he wanted them to go?”
“And the attack that smashed the fireball, only a Gen-level cultivator could have that kind of power, right?”
As 80 sword energies surrounded Little White, it started to get a bit dizzy and angry. It suddenly opened its mouth and swallowed the four closest sword energies into its stomach!
As Hao Ren hesitated for a moment when he noticed he had lost control of four sword energies, Little White swallowed three more sword energies!
Little White was a lion, and its ancestors were known as the Suanni 1 !
Suanni swallowed the clouds and spat smoke; it would eat all kinds of essences!
Even though Little White was desperate, it held back and only consumed a few sword energies! In a real fight, it could swallow all kinds of attacks!
Hao Ren saw that the situation was no good and he immediately pulled back the rest 73 sword energies into his body. If Little White continued to consume the sword energies, all his training and cultivation in the past few months would’ve gone to waste!
“Alright, alright. You won!” Hao Ren waved at Little White and threw two elixir pills to it.
Little White, who was being haughty, saw the pills and immediately descended onto the ground.
After this fight, Hao Ren could no longer call Little White a “dead dog” as it was indeed a combat-type snow lion. All it needed was more training and to gain more combat experience.
Yet, Hao Ren did not know that as the descendant of Suanni, not only could Little White swallow Nature Essence, its feces were the super-fertilizer for growing spiritual herbs!
“Let’s go; it’s time to go to Zi’s house!” As Hao Ren saw Little White munching the elixir pulls and leaning on his leg, he picked it up and throw it into his necklace.
One-line Snake Array Formation was so powerful that it was comparable to the power of a Gen-level cultivator. And for Little White, seemed like even three or four Zhen-level cultivators still wouldn’t be able to defeat it!
If East Ocean and West Ocean started fighting against each other, Hao Ren believed that he and Little White could have a chance of surviving.
