Shi Hao complied with the request and stopped, turning towards Zuo Tao with a smile, "Very well, this time you’ve called quite a few more people over."
"You are far too arrogant!" Zuo Tao trembled with anger, turning to someone and saying, "Senior Brother Qian, look, isn’t this kid too arrogant?"
Surname Qian, the brother in question looked to be over forty, though he was in fact much older. His cultivation had reached the Great Sacrificial Heaven, making him the strongest among this group, having completed three rituals, unlike the others who had completed only one or two.
His name was Qian Zhiyun, and his expression carried some surprise, having seen him come over, Shi Hao still appeared nonchalant. This calmness was rather excessive.
Where does such confidence come from?
It’s just the mere Supplementing Divine Temple!
"Take him down!" he said tiredly, speaking to someone by his side.
"Yes!" This was one of his followers, also of the Supplementing Divine Temple’s cultivation, who immediately stepped forward, approaching Shi Hao aggressively.
Shi Hao stood with his hands behind his back, a slight smile on his face.
Xiao Hei and Yue Feifei both showed awkward expressions as they, too, were followers, yet they could not step forward to share Shi Hao’s difficulties at this moment.
—It’s just the Founding King Court, acting tough would only embarrass Shi Hao.
Both knew they must rise in power quickly, they told themselves.
After the follower took a few steps closer, he fiercely made a move: "Daring to be presumptuous in front of Lord Qian, where does this courage come from?"
With a casual wave of his hand, Shi Hao sent the follower flying back at a high speed, slamming heavily against the palace wall behind him, before sliding down, limbs dangling, already unconscious.
He wasn’t dead, just knocked out.
Here, Shi Hao wasn’t one to easily inflict lethal blows.
However, this strike had caused the faces of those from Sanying Hall to change dramatically.
Although Qian Zhiyun’s follower was not some supreme genius, he was someone who had lit the Incense Flame, his combat power was certainly not weak, or else he wouldn’t have been kept close by Qian Zhiyun.
Yet in a match of equal ranks, he couldn’t withstand even a single blow from Shi Hao.
That was unbelievable.
"He has the power of the Great Sacrificial Heaven." A middle-aged man said, his name was Cai Jia, and he was also a powerful Great Sacrificial Heaven practitioner, but had completed only one ritual.
"Hmm." Beside him, Woo Wang nodded in agreement, he, too, was only one ritual.
In his mind, to send a Supplementing Divine Temple practitioner flying so easily, one would need at least the power of one ritual.
Qian Zhiyun frowned, he could obviously see this and was filled with astonishment; such an anomaly had appeared in the world, shattering the iron laws of martial arts.
No no no no, the reason it’s called an iron law is that it’s unbreakable; otherwise, it should be called a stone law or a mud law.
This person must be pretending to be a Great Sacrificial Heaven.
—Compared to faking power, it’s much easier to fake aura.
However, such a taste for deception is bizarre; what’s the point of a Great Sacrificial Heaven impersonating a Supplementing Divine Temple?
"Junior Brother Cai, take him down." Qian Zhiyun spoke again.
"Okay." Cai Jia nodded. In the Martial Arts Realm, power is supreme, universally acknowledged; he was one ritual, Qian Zhiyun was three, so he simply had to obey.
Of course, Qian Zhiyun wouldn’t make an unreasonable demand.
Cai Jia strode forward, opening his domain, but not to its maximum extent.
—The smaller a domain is compressed, the greater a martial artist’s control over the elements and rules within it; unless facing a weaker opponent, in which case, it’s better to expand the domain as much as possible, letting no place for the opponent to dodge, striking them down with the force of a thunderclap.
Anyway, Shi Hao was not far from him, as long as he could envelop the opponent within his domain, that was sufficient.
Shi Hao smiled faintly and also released his own domain to contend.
Within their domains, Martial Artists were like deities, but when two great domains intertwined, who indeed was the deity?
The domain of the stronger would cover that of the weaker, yet the current situation was... the two domains collided, neither able to invade the other’s space, resulting in a standoff.
Junior Brother Cai snorted, "Indeed, you are the Great Sacrificial Heaven!"
If not the Great Sacrificial Heaven, how could one possibly possess a domain?
However, the opponent’s strength should be similar to his own because the boundary of their domains was exactly in the middle of the two of them.
The authority of the domains was not distinguished by superiority or inferiority, so their combat power should also be equivalent.
The only exception was the mastery of a powerful move, one had mastered it, and the other had not, which could lead to significant trouble.
Shi Hao smiled faintly, his combat power was now comparable to three sacrifices, so, he was actually consciously controlling his domain, not suppressing the other on purpose.
"Whether I am the Great Sacrificial Heaven or the Supplementing Divine Temple, when narrow paths meet, the brave wins! Did you also want to compare who had higher cultivation at that time?"
Hearing this, Junior Brother Cai couldn’t help but show a look of annoyed embarrassment.
If these words had come from the mouth of his master, he would definitely have taken them to heart, but Shi Hao was just the Great Sacrificial Heaven, and he dared to lecture him from a position of superiority?
"Arrogant!" he shouted loudly and charged at Shi Hao.
Alas, a single sacrifice.
Shi Hao found it boring and parried casually, appearing very indifferent.
Even so, he still had the upper hand.
There was no helping it, even if he was only exerting a tenth of his power, he had mastered the Primordial Scripture, his insight was too sharp and incisive, Cai Jia’s attacks were negligible to him, and his defenses were full of flaws.
Even just casually fighting, he was definitely gaining the upper hand.
After a few moves, Cai Jia embarrassingly fled back to his own camp.
Unable to fight at all, though it seemed they had comparable combat power, Shi Hao still managed to suppress him, leaving him unwilling and desperate.
He was truly beginning to doubt his life, his defeat was too inexplicable.
Finally, Qian Zhiyun’s face showed a careful expression and he said lightly, "Indeed skilled, but do you think that’s enough to look down on my Sanying Hall?"
He took a step forward, and with a boom, a terrifying momentum surged like a tide toward Shi Hao.
Shi Hao stood proudly, like a steady rock in a river, the surging momentum splitting around him, unable to reach Xiao Hei and the others.
"If you can block my ten moves, I will spare your life," Qian Zhiyun confidently said, then he made a move, swinging his palm toward Shi Hao.
Boom, the force of the palm hadn’t yet hit when the domain already spread over, the nearby stones seeming to come to life and furiously striking toward Shi Hao.
Inside the domain, I am the deity.
Shi Hao smiled and likewise opened his domain, instantly pushing Qian Zhiyun back within his own domain.
Clap clap clap, without the Keep reading on NovelHub - where stories come alive!
Qian Zhiyun couldn’t help showing a shocked expression, the authority of the opponent’s domain... was no weaker than his own.
Hiss, that meant, the opponent also possessed the combat power of three sacrifices.
But he had already made his move, like an arrow on the string, he had to release it; otherwise, where would his face be, where would the face of Sanying Hall be?
