Chapter 638: Let's Feast, Shi Hao

~15 min read 2,939 words

"Brat, the Qilin secret technique is never passed on to outsiders. No matter where you obtained it, hand it over."

Qilin Shengzi glared like a tiger, his presence immense.

His flame-like hair and crimson pupils looked extremely wild, as if he would choose someone to devour and tear them to pieces the moment Shi Hao disagreed.

Not just Qilin Shengzi, but nearby were also Long Ao Shengzi of the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest, Xuehuang Shengzi, Huangjin Shengzi, and others, as well as a Tyrant Body descendant whose strength was unfathomable.

For ancient races like these, the secret techniques within their clans are viewed as extremely important; they are the foundation and the enduring secrets of a clan, so how could they possibly be practiced or used by outsiders?

What kind of person is Shi Hao? A Youth Supreme who fears neither heaven nor earth, he has been fighting and brawling since birth, so how could he possibly fear these few non-human creatures?

He has even eaten Venerable-level Heaven-Swallowing Sparrows, Suanni, and Taowu from the Great Wilderness!

"How truly overbearing. What of it? If I, your grandfather, don't give it to you, what can you do?"

Shi Hao said with Haki, arms crossed over his chest, his aura erupting, standing toe-to-toe with these few heaven-proud sons, not showing the slightest weakness.

Seeing this, the Nine-Headed Lion nearby, although intimidated by the forces behind Long Ao, Qilin Shengzi, and Huangjin Shengzi...

... but the Nine-Headed Lion clan is not weak either, and furthermore, it had just been defeated by Shi Hao and accepted him as its master.

Although it looked down on the frail Human Race, the Nine-Headed Lion clan has always respected the strong, and Shi Hao had already conquered its heart with his powerful strength.

Thus, the Nine-Headed Lion said: "What is this, a few big shots bullying my big brother? Isn't that too narrow-minded? If you want to bully my big brother, you must get past me first."

Hearing this, Qilin Shengzi glared fiercely at the Nine-Headed Lion and said: "This matter has nothing to do with your Nine-Headed Lion clan. It concerns my clan's secret technique. I advise you not to meddle in other people's business, otherwise, this Saint Son wouldn't mind chopping off your head."

"Qilin Shengzi, I, your father, am meddling today, so what?"

The Nine-Headed Lion also eats soft but not hard; although its strength is inferior to Qilin Shengzi, if it fought for its life, it would make him lose a layer of skin and a chunk of Flesh.

Slap!

Shi Hao gave the Nine-Headed Lion a big slap on the head and said arrogantly:

"What's this, since when does a little brother need to back up his big brother? What, you're that worried about your big brother?

In my eyes, they are all just food on the plate."

"What a majestic figure!"

The Nine-Headed Lion was dazed from the slap, its eighteen eyes staring straight at Shi Hao's back; although Shi Hao looked small, for some reason, he was infinitely magnified in its eyes, becoming tall and imposing.

"Big brother is so full of Haki, it seems I must have overthought it," the Nine-Headed Lion thought to itself.

"What a big mouth! To humiliate us, a mere human, who is nothing but rations for our ancient races."

Qilin Shengzi was furious and prepared to make a move.

"Fellow Daoist Qilin, do you need help?" Long Ao smiled.

"No need!"

Qilin Shengzi replied directly, then immediately used Teleportation, his speed extremely fast.

At the same time, he reached out an arm to grab Shi Hao's neck, wanting to crush his throat.

But Shi Hao used the Moving Word Secret under his feet and vanished from where he stood; that footwork was heavy, leaving behind trails of afterimages, miraculous and skillful, with every step containing mysterious Law.

It is rumored that at the peak of the Moving Word Secret, the speed is fast enough to directly traverse space-time, outrun time, peerless and unparalleled in heaven and earth.

Utilizing the unpredictability of the Moving Word Secret, Shi Hao arrived behind Qilin Shengzi in an instant and kicked him in the buttocks with great force.

Ah!

Qilin Shengzi let out a miserable scream; it truly pained his heart, his face twisted.

At that moment, he felt as if he saw a sun-facing, flourishing chrysanthemum suddenly bloom.

Hiss!

The Nine-Headed Lion gasped; big brother's strike was truly ruthless.

Fortunately, it wasn't his own chrysanthemum blooming, but this annoying Qilin Shengzi.

"To actually make Qilin Shengzi suffer a loss, this human's strength is truly not weak," Huangjin Shengzi said.

"Indeed, but I most enjoy strangling the heaven-proud sons of the Human Race," Xuehuang Shengzi smiled sinisterly.

"This child's background is extraordinary. The movement technique he used to dodge Qilin Shengzi is extremely mysterious. Did you not notice the clues?" said the Tyrant Body descendant, Huangfu Taixuan.

"Brother Huangfu, there are plenty of mysterious movement techniques and footwork," Long Ao said.

Huangfu Taixuan shook his head and said:

"Ordinary footwork and movement techniques, I can see through their essential mysteries at a glance.

But this child's movement technique is unpredictable; the landing point of every step is perfect, leaving no trace to follow, and his speed is getting faster and faster, as if he has merged with the great trend of heaven and earth, turning into heaven and earth itself.

Furthermore, don't forget, Qilin Shengzi has the strength of a Zhan Dao King, and so do you.

If even he couldn't guard against it, could you respond with ease?"

"Many years ago, I once watched from afar as a Great Ability traversed the starry sky. With one step, I saw the stars shift and the universe retreat; all things in the universe were beneath his feet. At that moment, it was as if time stood still, or as if he had seized the creation of heaven, leaving one's heart and soul shaken."

"And the footwork that Great Ability used was one of the legendary Nine Secrets, the Moving Word Secret!"

After speaking, Huangfu Taixuan's gaze was burning; although the footwork of the Shi Hao before him was not as good as that Great Ability's, he felt a familiar aura.

Hearing that this was very likely one of the Nine Secrets, Long Ao, Xuehuang, and Huangjin Shengzi were all stirred.

One of the Nine Secrets—to practice just one, to specialize in one, is enough to reach the peak of the world.

Every time the Nine Secrets appear, a bloody storm follows in their wake.

"However, it may not necessarily be the Nine Secrets. Let's watch first!" Huangfu Taixuan said.

Long Ao, Xuehuang, and Huangjin suppressed their restless thoughts and turned their gazes back to the battle between the two.

Qilin Shengzi used a secret technique to quickly recover from the injury on his buttocks; the Qilin race's Flesh is inherently tough, and just now it was actually only an external injury, with no internal damage.

As the high and mighty Qilin Shengzi, where had he ever been insulted like this? He shouted:

"Brat, you have angered me!"

"Secret Technique: Qilin Roar!"

With a roar of rage, it shook the heavens and the earth.

Behind Qilin Shengzi, a giant crimson Qilin appeared, and raging flames soared into the sky.

That flaming Qilin opened its mouth and roared, the terrifying sound waves spreading in all directions to the Four Extremities.

This sound wave was even more formidable and piercing than the previous Heaven-Shaking Step of the Hydra Lion King.

Wherever it passed, all things were shattered into fine powder; some cultivators who could not retreat in time turned into dregs on the spot, not even able to leave behind a single scream.

Even the defensive arrays around the Arena were constantly shaking, as if they might shatter at any moment, and higher-level cultivators struck one after another to maintain the arrays.

Yet, situated at the center of this terrifying sound wave, Shi Hao felt his head buzzing, but that was all.

"Although the cultivation systems of the two eras are different, the essence of power has no distinction.

The strength of this Qilin Shengzi is roughly at the Venerable Realm."

While fighting, Shi Hao contemplated the gap in combat power between the two systems.

If judged by realm, he is currently in the late stage of the Array Formation Realm; if he continues to cultivate like this, he can reach the Venerable Realm in at most half a year, but if comparing strength, he could directly kill ordinary Venerables across levels.

He already possesses three pieces of Supreme Bone, a pair of Double Pupil, the Immortal artifact Endless Great Dao Milk Bottle, and various techniques; with the superposition of various means and combat power, let alone Venerables, he could even beat to death cultivators in the Divine Fire Realm above the Venerable level.

"Come to think of it, it seems the later-generation system was created by me.

If I figure out the cultivation system of the Ye Laoliu era at this time, then after I go back, does it still count as being created by me?"

Shi Hao was somewhat distracted; as for Qilin Shengzi's Qilin Roar, even if he roared until his spit dried up and he coughed up blood, he did not injure Shi Hao in the slightest.

At this moment, he could be considered to have experienced the mood of the Hydra Lion not long ago.

Most of the sound wave energy of the Qilin Roar was devoured by the Supreme Bone, causing no real damage to Shi Hao himself.

"Impossible, brat, how could you ignore the Qilin Roar? This is one of my clan's top-tier divine abilities," Qilin Shengzi said in disbelief.

"Nonsense, do you think I would explain it to you?" Shi Hao retorted.

"Damn it!"

"Kirin Arm!"

Qilin Shengzi raised his right arm, stimulating his bloodline power, and all his strength converged on his fist peak.

He roared and swung his right arm, and a flaming Qilin was seen breaking through the air to arrive.

"Is this all there is to the Kirin Arm!"

Shi Hao also used his right fist to receive the move, but he did not use any precious techniques, striking with pure physical strength.

"Break for me!"

Shi Hao let out a loud roar, his entire body's strength circulating through his meridians, and golden light overflowed from his body.

Boom!

The flaming Qilin was punched through, and subsequently, Qilin Shengzi was smashed to the ground by the remaining force of Shi Hao's fist, spitting blood and suffering quite a few injuries.

This scene directly shocked all the cultivators at the Xingkong Gulu Dishijiuguan!

Qilin Shengzi is no unknown person, yet he was actually defeated by an unknown youth, and it was an all-around crushing defeat at that.

He is, after all, of the Qilin bloodline, and both his strength and combat power are stronger than those of the Human Race at the same realm.

The reason the Ancient Myriad Clans suppress the Human Race is precisely because their innate conditions are superior to those of human cultivators.

"As expected of Big Brother!"

The Hydra Lion was truly convinced at this moment, and he was also glad that he had not fought Shi Hao to the death, but instead turned hostility into friendship.

The only bad thing was that this Big Brother kept coveting his lion head.

However, Big Brother had caused Qilin Shengzi to lose so much face; this matter would not end so easily, and Qilin Shengzi also had a Protector of the Dao behind him.

"Why, are you convinced?"

Shi Hao stood in mid-air, looking down at Qilin Shengzi from above, the corners of his mouth raised.

"Brat, you are courting death."

Qilin Shengzi climbed up and shouted angrily, the killing intent in his eyes unstoppable.

"Long Ao fellow Daoist, Xuehuang fellow Daoist, Golden fellow Daoist, Huangfu fellow Daoist, help me deal with this brat together, and the Qilin clan will surely reward you heavily."

Qilin Shengzi shouted loudly; now he did not care about ganging up on one person, he only wanted Shi Hao to die.

Hearing this, Long Ao, Xuehuang, Golden, and Huangfu Taixuan arrived via Teleportation together.

They would certainly help the Qilin, and since they were all Ancient Clans belonging to the same lineage, how could they watch this brat Shi Hao damage the face and glory of the Ancient lineage.

At the same time, they also took the opportunity to plunder the precious techniques possessed by Shi Hao.

As for the Tyrant Body Huangfu Taixuan, although this lineage is of the Human Race, it is not quite the Human Race.

The Heaven Tyrant Blood is, in a sense, a mutated constitution of the Human Race, making human cultivators stronger.

This constitution is superior to ordinary humans, so after millions of years of evolution, the Tyrant Body lineage became increasingly arrogant and conceited, looking down on everyone, even leaving the Human Race to open up a planet on their own, naming it Bati Zuxing, and not associating with normal cultivators.

In particular, the Tyrant Body lineage is extremely xenophobic, believing that outsiders covet their bloodline.

During the several Dark Turmoil in history, especially when the Ancient Clans were dominant, the Great Accomplishment Tyrant Body of the Tyrant Body lineage did not appear to help the Human Race, and would even actively strangle the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body of the Human Race.

If it were not for the rare resources in certain regions of the Human Race, perhaps the Tyrant Body lineage would have long since separated from the Human Race.

Shi Hao looked calmly at the few people in front of him; they were all the proud sons of heaven of this world and this era, and their strength was indeed not bad.

A one-on-one fight would be fine, but if they ganged up on him together, he would not be as relaxed as before.

He could fight, but it was unnecessary.

He did not want to expose too many trump cards; after all, he did not belong to this world, and if it led to any variables, that would be troublesome.

"Do you have no shame? You are at least geniuses, yet you actually disregard martial virtue and gang up together," the Hydra Lion scolded angrily.

"Hydra Lion, if you keep talking nonsense, I guarantee you will immediately become a dead lion," Xuehuang Shengzi said.

Upon hearing this, the Hydra Lion retorted:

"Oh, you mongrel bird-man, who are you trying to scare? Was your Lion Grandpa scared into growing up?"

"Courting death!"

Xuehuang Shengzi rubbed a ball of scarlet flames between his hands and smashed it toward the Nine-Headed Lion.

"The Nirvana-Extinguishing Flame of the Phoenix Clan?"

The Nine-Headed Lion's expression turned abruptly grave; the Blood Phoenix is a branch of the Phoenix Clan, a clan that has been corrupted by evil.

The Phoenix Clan cultivates the Nirvana Flame, which represents the rebirth of life, while the Blood Phoenix Clan controls the Nirvana-Extinguishing Flame, which governs destruction and ruin.

The power of this Nirvana-Extinguishing Flame is immense; once touched by it, one will inevitably be burned until not even dregs remain.

This type of flame is specifically designed to burn beings that possess the vitality of life.

As long as the vitality does not cease, the flame will never extinguish or vanish.

"Fearless Lion Seal!"

The Nine-Headed Lion arranged his arms into a strange posture imbued with Zen, his entire body covered in golden light, while a massive Golden Lion Dharma Aspect appeared behind him.

Boom!

The Nirvana-Extinguishing Flame slammed fiercely into the Dharma Aspect of the Fearless Lion Seal.

The surface of the originally brilliant and resplendent Golden Body was continuously burned and corroded by the Nirvana-Extinguishing Flame, and in the blink of an eye, it was on the verge of shattering; the Nine-Headed Lion could not withstand it and spat out blood.

At this moment, Shi Hao made his move, a ball of flames likewise appearing in his palm—that was the Vermilion Bird Fire.

Roar!

From the ethereal void came a long cry of a Vermilion Bird that spanned from ancient times to the present!

A Vermilion Bird silhouette swept across the sky, soaring ninety thousand miles upward.

Wherever the Vermilion Bird Fire passed, all evil spirits were wiped out, and that Nirvana-Extinguishing Flame was likewise burned to nothingness, shattered in a single strike.

Xuehuang Shengzi felt his bloodline stir and said in disbelief:

"It is actually the legendary Vermilion Bird divine ability! Hasn't this precious technique long since vanished and become Absolute?"

"You have a bit of discernment," Shi Hao said.

"This young friend of the Human Race certainly knows many precious techniques; I wonder if you are willing to share them with us.

Of course, if you are willing to share them with us, we will not let you suffer a loss.

If you are unwilling, then we will have to take action," Long Ao smiled cordially.

The surrounding cultivators desperately wanted to boo and mock them, but because the other party's influence was overwhelming, they could only suppress their resentment.

Shi Hao ignored the greed in the other party's eyes and said:

"Snake Skin freak, you speak this way simply because you think I am all alone and easy to manipulate."

"Isn't that the case?" Long Ao retorted.

"Heh, although I could wipe out your whole group by myself, that would be too much trouble.

Since it is a group battle, how could I possibly fight you all alone?"

"Ye Laoliu, Xu Laoliu, An Lao Liu, Bao'er Jie, time to feast!"
