The gray horns reached into the sky, and his body was like a mountain. Dozens of heavenly dragons lay across the void, and the surroundings were gray and hazy. They carried a type of obscure profundity, and their killing intent shook the world.
“How could he be this strong?” A few people’s faces became pale.
“The fate of the country is endless. Has the imperial magic power been fully displayed? If it’s like this now, then what will happen to him in the future!” A few elders’ faces darkened.
For Shi Hao, this was a glorious battle achievement!
Shi Hao was domineering and was resisting them with his strength. Under the siege of the three great experts, he still started killing and intimidating the others.
As the Human Emperor who had just ascended to the throne, Shi Hao was unstoppable when he attacked.
At this moment, heavenly dragons coiled around his body. Giant dragons coiled under the sky, making Shi Hao look like a demonic god. He had the aura of a sovereign ruling the world!
Boom!
A fist smashed out, shaking in all directions. Shi Hao and the Western Sect’s Five Meters clashed, fist imprints smashing together like two colliding mountains. Divine force surged, releasing a terrifying aura.
Shi Hao rose into the air, opening his mouth and releasing a roar. A fiery red Vermillion Bird flew out from his mouth, carrying scarlet flames as it faced Immortal Mountain’s Qin Lun.
Five elemental energies surged. Five types of precious light swirled around Qin Lun’s body, colliding with the Vermillion Bird. He kept releasing light, which revealed some runes.
Fairy Yue Chan’s beautiful hair danced in the wind, and her skin was crystalline. Her fair face was filled with solemness, and her eyes shone with divine light. She controlled the dragon with her bare hands and executed a terrifying divine ability.
“Dragon Taming Technique!”
In the distance, someone cried out in alarm. This was one of the True Dragon’s precious techniques. Even though it was only a portion, its power was astonishing.
The expressions of the cultivators of the three sects changed. There had always been a legend that the Heaven Mending Sect had obtained the body of a True Dragon and used an astonishing technique to restore it. As a result, they obtained an incomplete precious technique.
Could it be true? Many people had always had such doubts.
Everyone knew that the sect had the Dragon Guiding Hand, but they had only heard of the Dragon Taming Technique and had never seen anyone use it. Now that they saw it here, all of them were intimidated.
Shi Hao’s expression didn’t change. His palm shone, and a green grass drilled out. It emitted a dazzling light and became increasingly crystalline. Then, thick sword energy erupted.
With a clang, the sword light shook the sky and struck the True Dragon, producing an earth-shattering bang. Electricity continuously fell from the sky and shook violently.
This was the profound meaning of a blade of grass. It fought against the most tyrannical creature, a dragon. The weakest blade of grass and the most tyrannical dragon were two extremes, but they were evenly matched.
“We can’t just watch and do nothing. We have to take action as well, subdue this monster together,” an elder said.
“The central palace is resonating with Shi Hao, so we can’t carve a formation here. Otherwise, we could bring out the formation disk and kill him!” Someone from the Western Sect said in a low voice.
When the Supremacies didn’t appear, it was naturally best to trap and kill a peerless prodigy like Shi Hao with an ancient array formation. However, there was something strange about this palace that was difficult to set up.
On the battlefield, Shi Hao was fighting three great experts alone, so it was naturally dangerous. If any one of them jumped out, they would be his formidable opponents.
Regardless of whether it was Yue Chan or the Five Meters, each of them could dominate an entire region. They were the cream of the crop among their peers, and it was difficult for them to find a true opponent.
Now that such a stunning cultivator joined forces to fight Shi Hao, he naturally became extremely passive. He fell into the most dangerous bitter battle.
However, Shi Hao was also extremely difficult to kill. Even if the three great young supreme beings came out together to suppress Shi Hao, it would still be difficult for them to succeed in a short period of time.
If someone like Shi Hao truly wanted to leave, even if a few heavenly geniuses of the same level came, it would still be difficult for them to stop him. As a result, the three great experts were all extremely careful and tried to block his way.
“I have a method that can defeat him.” Right at this time, a king-level figure from Stone Country secretly talked to the others.
“Su King, what do you have to say?” An expert from the Heaven Mending Sect was tempted.
“A few nobles and I know some of the imperial palace’s formation diagrams. If we join hands with them, we can break through some of them and turn this small area into ordinary soil,” the Su king said.
He already had no way out. Previously, he felt that Shi Hao would be trapped and killed in the central heavenly palace, so he turned to the three sects. Everything he did was seen by Shi Hao. If Shi Hao didn’t die, he would definitely settle scores with them.
“You know these things?” An elder from the Western Sect was shocked.
“Yes!” The Su King nodded. His ancestor could be considered a direct descendant of the Stone Clan, so he naturally had a certain level of understanding of the imperial palace. There were a few other noble kings that were like him.
“Alright, you all work together. We’ll help.” An elder from the Western Sect nodded. If this succeeded, they could calmly set up a killing formation to kill Shi Hao.
“Gentlemen, we have no way out.” The Su King looked at the others.
“Alright, let’s go all out!” The others nodded. They were all experts from different regions, and their reputations in Stone Country were illustrious. The few of them gathered together and studied the place.
The cultivators of the three sects surrounded them in the center and cooperated with them. Following their instructions, they began to destroy the symbols in the imperial palace.
“How bold! What are you all trying to do?” The War King shouted, his eyes cold. He hated these people to the core and was looking down on them.
“The great calamity has arrived. The gods of the upper realms are about to appear. We can’t go against the trend. We naturally have to follow heaven and earth and make the right choice,” the Su King said.
“Stop them!” The War King shouted. There were a few noble kings at his side who had been confronting the Su King and the others. Now, they were going to take action.
Apart from this, there were a few imperial guards and others from the imperial palace, as well as people from the Wasteland Heaven King Manor. They all took a step forward, wishing to fight a decisive battle against these people.
However, many people from the three sects immediately surrounded them. Previously,,a group of people had already been staring at them and tried to deter them.
“You can’t scare me!” The War King laughed coldly, bringing those noble kings and pressing forward.
The expressions of the cultivators from the three sects changed. Even though the great sects in the outer regions were powerful, they were unwilling to start a war. After all, these were all noble kings who represented the top combat strength.
A terrifying chaotic battle was about to erupt!
In the center of the battlefield, wind and lightning surged. Shi Hao was like a demonic god. Every move he made caused the world to change color. He was fighting three experts alone.
He saw this episode with a cold gaze. He hated those nobles who had defected to the outer regions’ great sects. If they stood side by side with the War King and the others, no matter how many cultivators from the three sects came, they would still be afraid.
“War King, back off!” Shi Hao’s voice wasn’t very loud, but there was a type of majesty that couldn’t be resisted.
The War King and the others were shocked. How could they let the new emperor fight the three sects’ cultivators alone? None of them wanted him to take the risk alone.
“Back off!” Shi Hao said. His voice became higher, and he wouldn’t take no for an answer.
The War King sighed. He was also a powerful noble, but he still nodded. Shi Hao had just inherited the throne, so his prestige couldn’t be shaken. Even though he felt that it wasn’t appropriate, he still backed off.
“Nice!”
The people from the three sects were overjoyed. That was a good start. They hurriedly asked the Su King and the others to take action and have them draw formation diagrams. They quickly cleared out a pure land to set up a killing formation.
At this moment, Su King and the others no longer concealed themselves. They tried to find the formation patterns.
“You people don’t know what’s good for you, and you should all be executed!” Shi Hao’s voice was ice-cold. He hated them more than he hated the three sects.
Some of these people had different surnames, but there were also Stone Clan’s direct descendants among them. They made such a choice, and it filled Shi Hao with disdain. He really wanted to kill them all.
“This time, I won’t give you another chance,” an elder shouted. The three sects’ cultivators backed up. In addition, several divine artifacts rose, protecting the sky and preventing Shi Hao from displaying terrifying killing methods again.
At the same time, Fairy Yue Chan, Qin Lun, and Five Meters’ eyes shone with divine light as they launched their most powerful attacks. They wanted to kill Shi Hao while he was distracted.
“Don’t let him go!” The elder behind shouted.
“Yes, we have to block off Yuhua Gate!” The Su King spoke, giving pointers. That was a shortcut to escape from the imperial palace.
Shi Hao was indifferent. In fact, he didn’t plan on escaping. Even though this type of battle was extremely dangerous and could easily result in death, he could still hold on.
Firstly, he was powerful enough and full of confidence. Secondly, he longed for this battle and could use it to temper himself. Otherwise, how could he encounter such an opponent?
He wasn’t afraid at all. The more he fought, the braver he became. He was very suitable for such a battle.
“Something’s not right!” Qin Lun frowned, actually finding it a bit strenuous. This wasn’t a good sign.
Under normal circumstances, any one of the three of them would fight Shi Hao to the death. It was destined to be an unpredictable bloody battle. The three of them should have been able to kill him.
At this moment, Shi Hao became more and more composed. He was very majestic as if he wanted to rule the world.
Every move he made merged with this heaven and earth. Mist pervaded the air around him, and obscure profound mysteries appeared, surrounding him.
“With the Imperial Dao’s luck on his body, he triggered such power. It’s a mysterious type of power. It’s inexhaustible and is extracted from the country’s fortune,” Five Meters said solemnly.
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Boom!
When Shi Hao took action, he opened and closed his fists, his expression neutral and calm. He became more and more imposing. He really was like an emperor-level supreme being who looked down on all sides!
Outside his body, the imperial aura became more and more concentrated. Strands of mysterious power flowed over, wrapping around him. As he displayed his might, this world was stirred up.
At this moment, it was as if he was brandishing the Heavenly Dao and using the might of the world to crush all enemies!
This was the secret power of the entire country. He inherited the throne. As time passed, wisps of it surged toward his body. Apart from that, the precious seal in his arms was also releasing this secret power.
Boom!
Shi Hao formed a fist imprint and calmly displayed it, immediately sending Five Meters flying far away, making him reveal a bitter expression. The fist force was so great that it made Five Meters tremble.
Everyone looked at each other in shock. They could see a thick layer of dense energy enveloping Shi Hao as if he possessed divine might that was impervious to all methods.
“The sovereign status gives him endless karmic luck, which is impervious to all methods and will never fall into calamity. It is already activated?!” An elder’s expression changed.
Meanwhile, the Su king and the others were even more alarmed. Couldn’t the three great experts stop him?
“Any one of them is enough to fight a bloody battle against him. Now, the three heroes are coming out at the same time. It was impossible for anyone in this world to survive!” An elder didn’t believe it and cried out.
Whoosh!
Shi Hao and Fairy Yue Chan exchanged blows. Sword energy rampaged, and green leaves appeared, cutting off a lock of hair on Fairy Yue Chan’s neck, and Shi Hao grabbed it in his hand.
Everyone was astounded, and even Fairy Yue Chan’s beautiful eyes shone with a faint divine light. She had been so close just now, and the sword almost struck her snow-white neck.
The situation wasn’t good. The three elites—Qin Lun, Five Meters, and Yue Chan—had joined forces, and they actually felt more and more pressure. There was a thick layer of dense energy on Shi Hao’s body that was difficult to break through.
On the other hand, the other party’s attack power was like a mountain stacking up. The pressure multiplied, making their hearts palpitate.
“Kill!”
Shi Hao shouted loudly. Imperial dragon energy surged, blasting away the three great experts. Like a tiger entering a wolf pack, he rushed toward the three sects’ cultivators, Su King, and the others.
Stone Country’s imperial palace was destined to become a river of blood!
