Chapter 407: A Contest of Divine Sense

After hearing Zhang Nuo's words, Zhou Huizheng felt as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. Whether one's Divine Sense is powerful is entirely proportional to a cultivator's cultivation level. Zhang Nuo was only at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, so his Divine Sense naturally could not be as powerful as Lu Yuhou's! If they continued to compete like this, he would likely suffer!

Moreover, damage to the Divine Sense is not like ordinary physical damage; it is very difficult to recover from in a short time!

"Old Four..."

Zhou Huizheng originally wanted to persuade Zhang Nuo, but Zhang Nuo waved his hand, signaling him not to say any more!

"Good! You have guts! I would like to see just how powerful the Divine Sense of a fledgling like you can be!"

Lu Yuhou was so angry that he rolled his eyes. This Zhang Nuo was too arrogant! To actually want to compete with him in Divine Sense—did he, a dignified Great Cultivator, have anything to fear from the Divine Sense of a Middle Stage cultivator?

Zhang Nuo remained calm and composed. Facing the furious Lu Yuhou, he slowly released his Divine Sense, then condensed it and launched an attack toward Lu Yuhou!

Divine Sense is formless and intangible, and in itself extremely fragile, possessing no inherent ability to attack. However, Zhang Nuo had practiced the "Inner Scene Art," and the power of his Divine Sense was such that even without using a "Divine Sense Spike," if the opponent were struck, they would be greatly distressed!

Lu Yuhou, who had Divine Sense spread out in front of his body, instantly sensed Zhang Nuo's Divine Sense attacking. Immediately, he likewise condensed a strand of Divine Sense and rushed toward Zhang Nuo's Divine Sense!

On the surface, both men stood quietly in place, neither having made a move, but in the shadows, two powerful forces of Divine Sense were locked in a struggle! This formless battle was filled with peril!

"Bang!"

Suddenly, a tiny sound came from the void between the two. At the same time, Zhang Nuo's body retreated a few steps, while Lu Yuhou sat down on his Flying Car with a thud, his old face deathly pale, his eyes radiating a glow of fury!

In the clash just now, Zhang Nuo's Divine Sense had actually blocked Lu Yuhou's Divine Sense in one go and even pursued the advantage. Just as Zhang Nuo's Divine Sense was about to enter Lu Yuhou's body, the desperate Lu Yuhou finally launched a powerful attack, forcibly rebounding Zhang Nuo's Divine Sense back!

Even so, Lu Yuhou was shaken quite heavily by the rebound force! A dignified Great Cultivator had actually been forced into such a state by a junior using Divine Sense; how could he possibly save face?

"Old Four! Are you alright?"

Zhou Huizheng walked up to Zhang Nuo in a few steps and asked with concern.

"I'm fine! Lu Yuhou is nothing special!"

Zhang Nuo did not hide this statement at all; rather, he intentionally wanted the other party to hear it! Lu Yuhou, already exasperated, stood up from the Flying Car with a jerk! A thick, intense killing intent erupted from his heart!

"Good! Good! Come again!"

Looking coldly at Zhang Nuo, Lu Yuhou gritted his teeth and shouted "good" twice. Then, he was seen pinching a Dharma seal with one hand while suddenly slapping his crown with the other! A green light flashed, and a Nascent Infant flew out from the top of his head! The Nascent Infant's two small hands also pinched a Dharma seal, its pair of small eyes blinked at Zhang Nuo a few times, and a massive force of Divine Sense lunged over!

Seeing that the opponent was getting serious, Zhang Nuo did not hesitate. He slapped his own crown with one hand, and his First Nascent Infant flashed out. Its two small hands grabbed at the void in front of it. In an instant, a sound of the void cracking rang out, and at the same time, a wisp of Divine Sense shot out from the Nascent Infant's brow, plunging directly into the void!

The next moment, the same sound of the void cracking rang out behind Lu Yuhou, and the Divine Sense that had disappeared previously launched a bizarre sneak attack!

Lu Yuhou's Nascent Infant's small face was filled with terror. Zhang Nuo could actually use the void to transmit Divine Sense; this person's Divine Sense power was definitely above his own! It was truly unimaginable that a Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivator's Divine Sense could be even more formidable than that of a Great Perfection Stage cultivator!

However, Lu Yuhou was also a ruthless character who had been around for many years. His Nascent Infant's form turned, and a green light flashed within its pupils. Immediately, a mountain-toppling, sea-draining force of Divine Sense formed an invisible barrier in front of him! The Divine Sense Zhang Nuo had transmitted through the void hit the barrier like a clay ox entering the sea! Only a tiny ripple was produced around Lu Yuhou, and everything returned to calm!

Just as his Nascent Infant turned its head, it saw the Nascent Infant above Zhang Nuo's head suddenly reveal a cold sneer, looking at Lu Yuhou with extreme contempt!

At the same time, Zhang Nuo's Nascent Infant moved its hands through a series of Dharma seals, and wave after wave of Divine Sense rushed toward Lu Yuhou. This was the first time Lu Yuhou had seen such a large-scale Divine Sense assault! He felt more and more that the kid before him was extraordinary! But the current situation did not allow him to think too much.

The Nascent Infant's small hands also pinched a Dharma seal, sending out several strands of Divine Sense to counterattack! From time to time, booming sounds would erupt from the void between the two. Although the sounds were not very loud, every sound made Zhou Huizheng and Su Mubai break out in cold sweat!

Zhang Nuo's expression began to grow solemn. Lu Yuhou was worthy of being a Great Cultivator; every wave of Divine Sense impact made him feel extremely distressed. If he hadn't practiced the "Inner Scene Art," he would have likely been defeated long ago!

Gritting his teeth slightly, a ruthless intent rose in Zhang Nuo's heart. Since they had already broken ties, if he didn't get rid of Lu Yuhou, given the other party's character, the Giant Spirit Pavilion would certainly not have any good days ahead!

In for a penny, in for a pound! If he was going to do it, he had to go big! Thinking of this, Zhang Nuo reached out and slapped his crown again. This time, not only were Zhou Huizheng and the others confused, but even Lu Yuhou opposite him was greatly puzzled!

Zhang Nuo slapped his crown again—could it be that there was another Nascent Infant inside him? That seemed too impossible! A Second Nascent Infant was not so easily condensed; even with Lu Yuhou's cultivation, he had never dared to dream of condensing a Second Nascent Infant! But just as they were puzzled, a pitch-black Nascent Infant emerged above Zhang Nuo's head—it was his Second Demon Infant!

The moment the Second Demon Infant appeared, Zhou Huizheng and Su Mubai were so shocked they nearly bit their tongues! Judging by the skin color of this Nascent Infant, it was clearly condensed through practicing Demonic Arts! It was already extremely difficult for a cultivator to master two different techniques; wanting to form two different Nascent Infants was even harder. How did Zhang Nuo manage it?

Having spent so much time with Zhang Nuo, Zhou Huizheng had never heard that he was a dual-Nascent Infant cultivator! If Zhang Nuo were also a Great Cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage, cultivating dual Nascent Infants wouldn't be surprising, but he was merely a Middle Stage cultivator—this was simply incredible!

Lu Yuhou, who also saw Zhang Nuo unleash the Second Demon Infant, nearly had his jaw drop to the ground! This kid before him was too heaven-defying! He had long heard that he was gifted! This wasn't just being gifted; this was a monster!

The appearance of Zhang Nuo's Second Demon Infant instantly disrupted the balance between the two! Under the alternating attacks of the two Nascent Infants, Lu Yuhou was clearly unable to cope! But out of concern for his reputation, he was still stubbornly holding on and did not offer to concede!

Just at this moment, a white light suddenly flashed from the brow of Zhang Nuo's First Nascent Infant. The light, only an inch in size, was like a cold gleam cutting through the void, flashing toward Lu Yuhou's Nascent Infant like lightning. Defending against the attacks of two Nascent Infants had already left him in a flurry, and seeing the bizarre white light attack, he wanted to use his Divine Sense to block it, but he was powerless to turn the tide!

The white light Zhang Nuo sent out easily broke through the Divine Sense guarding Lu Yuhou's Nascent Infant, and in a flash, it plunged into the Nascent Infant's head!

"Ah~!"

The Nascent Infant let out a miserable shriek, its two small hands quickly clutching its head, as if it were experiencing something incomparably painful! Seeing this, Zhang Nuo's two Nascent Infants turned into a green and a black stream of light respectively and dove back into his crown. The next moment, Zhang Nuo flipped his hand, and several Flying Swords appeared in his palm.

Since he had already offended Lu Yuhou, he might as well go all the way and use the moment he was struck by the "Divine Sense Spike" to finish him off! But just as Zhang Nuo revealed the Flying Swords, Lu Yuhou's Nascent Infant turned into a green light with a 'whoosh' and flew directly back into his body!

Frowning slightly, Zhang Nuo had not expected that the opponent could recover so quickly after being hit by the "Divine Sense Spike." He immediately put his hands behind his back, and the several Flying Swords vanished in the blink of an eye!

Without the element of surprise, even if Zhang Nuo attacked again, it would be in vain! It seemed he had still underestimated Lu Yuhou's strength!

"Good kid! You've got guts!"

Lu Yuhou's face was twisted in pain. He had never suffered such a big loss, and he had been defeated by a cultivator of a lower realm than himself!

If he had lost due to techniques, he could say Zhang Nuo's Magic Treasure was better than his own, but this time he had lost specifically in Divine Sense! Something he had the upper hand in had resulted in defeat; where could he put his old face? The two beautiful female cultivators who had been sitting beside Lu Yuhou were so scared they didn't dare to breathe! They stepped forward to support Lu Yuhou, fearing they would be caught in the crossfire!

"Many thanks to the Senior for letting me win!"

Zhang Nuo smiled coldly and cupped his hands.

"Hmph! You're lucky today! You won't be so lucky next time!"

With a cold snort from his nose, he flicked his hands, shaking the two female cultivators back onto their seats. Lu Yuhou sat back down on the Flying Car and ordered the cultivator steering it to turn and fly toward the First Immortal Mountain, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye!

Seeing Lu Yuhou leave, Zhou Huizheng finally let out a long sigh, but his face immediately turned as bitter as a gourd! This time, they had completely offended Lu Yuhou; the Giant Spirit Pavilion would likely have no peaceful days in the future!

However, the Second Demon Infant Zhang Nuo had revealed had truly opened his eyes. A mixture of shock and misery—these two completely different expressions were perfectly combined on Zhou Huizheng's face!
