Chapter 72

Everyone was stunned when they saw this.

The stone that had just been put down in their hearts suddenly hung up again.

The next moment.

Ning Chuan's majestic and cold voice sounded again, like rolling thunder, echoing between the sea and sky, clearly entering everyone's ears, and also entering the endless deep sea:

"Hiding your head and showing your tail for so long, it's time to come out, right?"

"As a dignified Grandmaster, do you only know how to do things like stealing chickens and dogs, peeking in the dark?!"

"Or is it that you need me... to personally invite you out?!"

After speaking!

His terrifying fifty-meter-long flood dragon tail flicked suddenly!

"Rumble!!!"

In an instant, on the sea, the wind and clouds changed color!

Thick water pillars, dozens of zhang high, were like being controlled by an invisible giant hand, shooting into the sky from beneath the surging sea surface!

Carrying world-destroying terrifying power, they fiercely bombarded the same direction, that seemingly calm sea area!

Everyone looked at this terrifying scene that looked like divine punishment, all heart-palpitating and terrified!

Grandmaster?!

What is a Grandmaster?

That is an existence that has completely condensed the virtual pill in the dantian into a real pill, or even a Golden Core!

The true qi in their body will undergo another qualitative change, turning into a more fierce, domineering, and indestructible protective aura!

With aura protecting the body, they are immune to blades and guns, water and fire!

Grandmaster experts can more clearly perceive and initially mobilize the spiritual energy between heaven and earth!

With every move, the aura triggers the power of heaven and earth, possessing the terrifying power to break rivers and mountains, burn mountains and boil the sea!

They can even use powerful aura to briefly fly in the air and stay in the void!

They are true enemies of ten thousand!

Below the Land Immortals, they are near-invincible existences!

Just now, West Poison Ouyang Feng, after fusing Dai Dai Qisi's energy, unleashed that supreme strike.

Although its power had faintly touched the threshold of a Grandmaster.

But that was a trick, not a realm cultivated by himself, the foundation was unstable, and he lacked follow-up power.

Compared to a true Grandmaster expert, there was still an essential difference.

And now, Ning Chuan actually said that in the dark, there was still a true Grandmaster hiding?!

How could this not make everyone terrified and their scalps numb?!

Northern Beggar Hong Hong Qigong was even more heart-palpitating, and fine cold sweat seeped out on his forehead.

As one of the Five Greats, he naturally knew the terror of a Grandmaster better than others.

That was no longer measurable by simple martial arts, but involved the application of the power of heaven and earth!

If there was really a Grandmaster hiding in the dark, then the crisis of Taohuadao today had likely only just begun!

He couldn't help but look again at the black flood dragon floating in mid-air, radiating divine might.

He prayed silently that this mysterious Flood Dragon Island Master could handle it.

The people of Taohuadao held their breath, not even daring to breathe loudly.

Their eyes were fixed on the sea area that Ning Chuan's flood dragon tail had bombarded.

Their hearts were filled with tension and unease.

Fearing that in the next moment, a world-destroying terrifying existence would rush out from the churning seawater.

Under the extremely tense gaze of the crowd.

The sea area that had been bombarded by Ning Chuan's flood dragon tail, causing monstrous waves and rolling giant waves.

Gradually, it calmed down.

However, just when everyone thought that maybe Ning Chuan had misperceived, or that the person in the dark had quietly retreated.

Suddenly!

"Splash——!"

A huge sound of breaking water rang out!

A figure wearing black tight night-travel clothes, face covered with a black veil, revealing only a pair of deep and sharp eyes.

Like an arrow leaving the bow, it shot into the sky from the churning seawater!

He lightly tapped his toes on the water surface, and his figure, as if weightless, landed lightly on a reef not far away.

Silently, like a ghost.

This person was of medium build, his aura restrained, but the eyes exposed were as sharp as a hawk's.

Filled with vicissitudes and a kind of unspeakable grief and indignation.

Standing there quietly, he naturally had an aura of standing like an abyss and a mountain, unfathomable.

Clearly a top-tier expert with extremely powerful strength!

The man in black was Xiao Xiao Yuanshan, and at this moment, he looked at Ning Chuan floating in mid-air with a solemn gaze.

When he saw with his own eyes this fifty-meter-long black flood dragon, with a single horn on its head, four claws on its belly, and radiating a world-destroying terrifying aura.

Even though his will was firm and he had long since put life and death out of his mind.

Monstrous waves couldn't help but churn in his heart, filled with unspeakable shock and dread!

He had traveled north and south for decades and could be considered well-informed.

But such a miraculous and powerful existence was something he had only seen in his life!

This had completely exceeded his understanding of martial arts!

"Your Excellency... is the owner of this Taohuadao?"

Xiao Xiao Yuanshan's voice was slightly hoarse, yet carried a sense of unquestionable steadiness and power.

He spoke calmly, and in his tone, one couldn't hear too much emotional fluctuation.

"I didn't expect that this small Taohuadao would hide such an earth-shattering existence as Your Excellency."

"Since Taohuadao has Your Excellency sitting in town, I, Xiao, will not disturb you anymore today and will leave now."

After speaking, he prepared to turn and leave.

He had come to Taohuadao this time for the legendary Nine Yin Manual.

It was rumored that the Nine Yin Manual contained the supreme mystery that could allow one to glimpse the realm of Land Immortals.

Although his martial arts had greatly improved over the years and he had long stepped into the Grandmaster realm.

But he wanted to kill those enemies from back then, especially the "leader" who was hidden behind the scenes and whose strength was unfathomable.

He felt that his strength was still somewhat insufficient.

So, he came to Taohuadao to try his luck, to see if he could get the Nine Yin Manual and take his strength a step further.

But now, after witnessing Ning Chuan's world-destroying terrifying strength with his own eyes.

The thought in his heart had long been replaced by boundless dread.

He knew that with this terrifying flood dragon here, he would never be able to easily get the Nine Yin Manual today.

Decisive when necessary, he decisively chose to retreat.

However, would Ning Chuan let him leave so easily?

"Hehe, come when you want, leave when you want?"

Ning Chuan's cold and domineering majestic voice sounded in the air.

"Your Excellency is a bit too disrespectful to my Taohuadao, aren't you?"

"Just now, Your Excellency was hiding in the dark, seemingly revealing undisguised killing intent toward me and the guests of my Taohuadao several times."

"How does Your Excellency explain this?"

Xiao Xiao Yuanshan heard this, and a trace of imperceptible cold light flashed in his eyes.

He didn't expect that he had hidden so secretly, yet he was still detected by this flood dragon.

Moreover, even his fleeting killing intent was captured clearly by the other party.

This flood dragon's perception was simply terrifying to the extreme!

Ning Chuan didn't wait for Xiao Xiao Yuanshan to answer and spoke again, his voice carrying a sense of unquestionable dominance:

"Since you've come, then stay!"

Before the words had even faded!

His giant flood dragon tail flicked suddenly!

A condensed mysterious black flood dragon energy, like black lightning cutting through the night sky, carrying terrifying power to tear through everything, shot toward Xiao Xiao Yuanshan!

This strike looked casual, but the power contained within was enough to make any grandmaster expert change color!

Xiao Xiao Yuanshan saw this, and his pupils shrank suddenly!

He could clearly feel that the terrifying power contained in this strike was by no means something he could easily withstand!

He didn't dare to be the least bit negligent, roared, and the massive aura in his body exploded instantly!

He formed seals with his hands and let out a low Buddhist chant from his mouth!

Golden swastika seals flew out from his palms, meeting Ning Chuan's mysterious black flood dragon energy!

It was the Songshan Shaolin unique skill—Prajna Palm!

And it was the Prajna Palm, which was even more powerful, unleashed with his Grandmaster cultivation!

"Boom!"

The mysterious black flood dragon energy and the golden swastika seals met in the air!

Exploding with a deafening loud noise!

The violent energy aftermath swept toward all directions!

The giant reef under Xiao Xiao Yuanshan's feet instantly turned into powder under this impact!

He himself was also shaken and flew backward for dozens of meters before barely stabilizing his figure, his face slightly pale.

"Songshan Shaolin's Prajna Palm? And a trace of the shadow of the Demon-Subduing Staff Technique?"

Ning Chuan looked at the martial arts Xiao Xiao Yuanshan had just unleashed, and a trace of realization flashed in his eyes.

"Xiao Xiao Yuanshan?"

Huang Rong, Qu Qu Lingfeng, and others heard this, all with puzzled faces.
