Chapter 2172: Ao Hua
Library of Heaven's Path · 第2172章 敖华
"What a big mouth!"
"In the past, when we communicated with other heavens, we always sent invitations in advance. A physician dares to speak like this? Who gave him the nerve?"
"Everyone, calm down. The golden dragon horns on his head indicate he possesses the pure bloodline of Emperor Yun Chi, making him a core disciple of the emperor. It's probably not that simple!"
"He's just relying on his bloodline. We are all experts of our respective factions. I doubt he can be that strong..."
……
Seeing the white-clad young man's arrogant tone, the crowd erupted in murmurs, filled with anger.
A physician who came for an exchange, even if his strength ranked in the top thirty of the Yun Chi Heaven Divine King Potential List, charging in so rudely and arrogantly was a major taboo.
It was tantamount to challenging the dignity of a faction.
If they showed no reaction, the entire You Hun Heaven would be ridiculed by other heavens and never be able to hold their heads high again.
"May I ask how this young master is addressed, and what rank he holds on the Yun Chi Heaven Potential List?"
A young man in the crowd waved his hand, silencing the discussions, and squinted as he looked over.
The top-ranked super expert on the You Hun Heaven Divine King Potential List: Shen Tu Feng.
The strongest of the younger generation of the Shen Tu clan. He had once attempted to break through to Divine King but failed without dying; both his soul and body had reached the Divine King level, only his cultivation could not break through!
His true combat strength, even if not equal to a Divine King, was not far off.
He was the undisputed number one under the Divine King in You Hun Heaven, and for this reason, everyone looked to him as their leader.
"I am Ao Hua, fortunate enough to be ranked ninth on the Yun Chi Heaven Divine King Potential List!"
The white-clad young master Ao Hua wore a proud expression.
"Ninth?"
The crowd's expressions turned serious.
Yun Chi Emperor of Yun Chi Heaven was a true dragon, the king of all beasts, with a bloodline so powerful it was monstrous. Those with his bloodline, once they transformed into their true form, were unmatched at the same level.
Before the spiritual energy receded, the Nine Heavens had held exchange competitions below the Divine King level. Apart from Zi Zai Heaven and Sword God Heaven, Yun Chi Heaven was the strongest and had the highest win rate.
Especially when transforming into a true dragon form, stretching hundreds of meters, combined with invincible defense, human cultivators had no way to resist.
For this reason, the Yun Chi Heaven Divine King Potential List carried more weight and was more formidable.
Otherwise, the other party would not dare to come so openly to challenge.
Being ranked ninth there, Ao Hua's strength was terrifying without needing to think.
"Since this friend boasts so much, I will have a match with you. Let me see if the cultivation of a Yun Chi Heaven expert matches your tone!"
With a low shout, a young man stepped forward from the You Hun Heaven side.
Ao Hua looked over. The man appeared around thirty, dressed in a black robe with smooth lines, like armor fitted to his body.
"State your name. I don't fight nameless nobodies!" Ao Hua said indifferently.
Seeing such disdain, the young man who stepped forward gritted his teeth in anger but finally snorted coldly, saying, "I am Chen Mu, ranked tenth on the You Hun Heaven Divine King Potential List. Win or lose, it represents only me, not You Hun Heaven!"
Seeing him step forward, Shen Tu Feng and the others nodded quietly and did not stop him.
This Ao Hua was ranked ninth in Yun Chi Heaven, while their side's tenth-ranked challenged him. If he won, it would boost their prestige; if he lost, it wouldn't be shameful.
It was also a good chance to test the opponent's exact cultivation and strength, preparing for later challengers.
"Enough nonsense!"
Ao Hua snorted, stepped forward, and moved like teleportation to Chen Mu's front. Without any other action, he charged straight into him.
"You're asking for death!"
Unexpectedly, the opponent abandoned defense and relied on his physical body to fight him. Chen Mu's face flushed with anger as he spread his five fingers and struck down.
The air trembled, and his palm glowed red.
Blazing Flame Palm!
This palm technique was forged using underground lava. Once executed, the palm was like a red-hot branding iron, burning everything it touched.
It was because of this palm technique's wonder that he had secured a top-ten spot on the Potential List, defeating many experts.
Though angry in this battle, he knew the opponent was no simpleton, so he unleashed his strongest move from the start.
Bang!
The white-clad young man did not dodge. The Blazing Flame Palm landed fully on his body. Chen Mu's face lit up with joy, thinking victory was near, but then he saw mockery in the opponent's eyes.
"Damn..."
His pupils contracted, and he reacted quickly. Chen Mu stomped the ground, sending rocks flying as he retreated rapidly.
To be in the top ten of a heaven's Divine King Potential List, one's cultivation and combat awareness were naturally not simple.
However, fast as he was, the opponent was faster. Ao Hua, charging forward, accelerated again, his body movements unchanged, still ramming straight ahead.
Crack!
Chen Mu's extended arm fractured under the impact, followed by a blow to his chest. Before he could speak, he grunted and flew backward.
Pfft!
In midair, he spat blood, his shoulder and ribs all shattered.
"You yield," the white-clad young man Ao Hua said, stopping, his hands still behind his back, his expression indifferent.
It was as if he hadn't been the one to defeat the opponent, calm and composed, without any sign of injury.
Everyone squinted.
From start to finish, the opponent had used only one move—ramming with his body—yet this single move was something Chen Mu, with his formidable strength, could not withstand.
"I am Qi Yue. Everyone yields. I am ranked sixth on the Potential List."
Qi Yue stepped forward.
Knowing shame and acting boldly, after a few days, his aura was more沉稳 and profound than before. His vigorous true energy circulated within him, making him seem like a grandmaster.
"Let's begin."
Lifting his eyelids again, Ao Hua charged forward once more.
In the blink of an eye, they were locked in battle.
……
"Is this the place in You Hun Heaven responsible for compiling the Divine King Potential List? Why is there no one?"
Following Qi Ling'er into the You Hun Hall, they soon entered a magnificent room. Zhang Xuan looked around and frowned.
The hall before him was spacious but empty, as if no one was there.
"I don't know either..." Qi Ling'er was also confused.
Compiling the Divine King Potential List involved recording the battles of each expert on the list. Therefore, many people came every day to observe the images and gain insights.
Why was there no one today?
Just as he was wondering, Zhang Xuan frowned and looked in a direction. "Someone's over there..."
Without waiting for Qi Ling'er's reply, he walked over.
The two rounded a door and saw another huge arena before them, then witnessed a scene they could hardly believe.
Over a dozen people lay on the ground, pale-faced. A white-clad young man stood proudly among them, with a strong air of arrogance.
Time rewind half a minute.
After a series of matches, only Shen Tu Feng remained.
"So this is your You Hun Heaven Potential List? I think it's no longer necessary..."
There was no contempt or disdain in his words; Ao Hua simply stated it plainly.
The top ten of a heaven's Potential List were all no match for him. Whether it existed or not was indeed unimportant.
"Defeat me first before saying that!"
Shen Tu Feng gritted his teeth.
In just a few minutes, the opponent had not only defeated Qi Yue but also the remaining seven of the top ten, all knocked to the ground.
No techniques, no martial skills, only physical ramming!
No matter how strong the opponent, one move settled the battle; a second move was never needed.
This Ao Hua's physical body had reached a terrifying level.
"Then let's begin..."
Without wasting words, Ao Hua charged again.
Shen Tu Feng flicked his wrist, and a long sword appeared in his palm, thrusting out swiftly.
Wuwuwuwu!
The sword edge flashed with cold light, seeming to cut through space as it appeared.
As the number one under the Divine King in a heaven, his strength was unquestionable. His physical body was also extremely powerful. Now, unleashing his full sword technique, even the superior-grade Heavenly God-level sword seemed unable to bear the force.
"Interesting!"
Seeing the opponent's sword light so fearsome, Ao Hua shed his previous disdain. His charging body suddenly stopped, and he extended five fingers, which abruptly transformed into a huge dragon claw.
In an instant, a vigorous aura rushed forth, bringing a bloodline pressure.
True Dragon Bloodline!
Ding ding ding!
The sword struck the dragon claw, producing sounds of steel clashing. Shen Tu Feng felt all his power sealed within his body, unable to unleash it.
"A Divine King-level physical body?"
Shen Tu Feng felt ice-cold all over.
Only by fighting personally did he understand how formidable the opponent was.
No wonder he dared to ram with his body without hesitation—this guy's physical body was already comparable to a Divine King-level weapon.
"No, it's not his entire body reaching that level, but... his claws! His dragon claws are comparable to Divine King-level weapons. Even if his body is not as strong, it has reached the level of a superior-grade Heavenly God weapon!"
After a moment, he realized.
The opponent had not reached the Divine King realm, and his body could not be comparable to a Divine King weapon, but his claws were somewhat similar!
As expected of a true dragon...
Relying on bloodline was indeed unsolvable, leaving no way to deal with it.
Bang!
After a few moves, the long sword in his hand was severed by the opponent's claws, followed by a blow to his chest. His face pale, Shen Tu Feng, like those before him, flew backward, crashing heavily to the ground, gasping for breath, unable to speak.
The top-ranked super expert of the You Hun Heaven Divine King Potential List was also no match!
"It seems the You Hun Heaven Divine King Potential List is nothing special..."
With his hands behind his back again, Ao Hua shook his head. Just as he was about to finish, he saw two figures walk in.
They were Zhang Xuan and Qi Ling'er.
"Perfect timing. It seems they're testing for the Divine King Potential List..."
Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up.
He had thought it was bad timing and would have to wait who knows how long to arrange a match. Unexpectedly, upon arrival, he saw someone fighting, probably just finished testing.
In that case, regardless of what rank this person had tested for, as long as he defeated him, he would obtain the same rank, saving a lot of trouble.
Truly a pillow when feeling sleepy...
His luck was indeed invincible!
