Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

”No time to waste, let the match begin!”

In the next instant, Hai Qinglan swept his big hand out, an endless mighty Strength roaring as it exploded. With a deafening boom, the pitted, uneven ground beneath their feet was actually slapped flat by his palm, forming an incredibly level, spacious gigantic arena.

This old man’s control over Strength had clearly reached an extremely profound level.

”Rise!”

Then, Hai Qinglan let out a low shout. As the earth trembled with a rumbling roar, that sunken arena actually began to slowly rise up. Only after it lifted about three zhang above the ground did it finally stop ascending.

”Both sides, get up on the stage!”

Hai Qinglan swept a gloomy gaze over the three genius representatives the Human Clan had sent out. To be honest, he knew nothing about these juniors, and had absolutely no confidence in them.

Especially that Wenren Zhan: arrogant and conceited. He would probably eat a crushing defeat.

”Crack crack!”

But Wenren Zhan was still bursting with confidence, cracking his joints until they snapped and popped. Then he leapt, his whole body shooting toward the arena like a cannonball.

His cultivation had already reached the Semi-Saint level; his realm was not much inferior to Dongfang Chun’s.

And to have become one of the standouts among the young generation of Dragon Sword Mansion, Wenren Zhan naturally had his outstanding qualities.

On the Demon Clan’s side, the Golden Flood Dragon Young Master had a faint contempt in his eyes. He casually pointed to the weakest among the Demon Emperor Level experts behind him and said expressionlessly, ”Bao Xiong! You go!”

That Bao Xiong from the Giant Spirit Bear Clan curled the corner of his mouth and let out a cackling laugh. ”Rest assured, Young Master! I, Bao Xiong, alone can defeat all of the Human Clan!”

Wenren Zhan’s brows shot up, fury turning to a sneer. ”Ignorant rat, you’ll pay a terrible price for that word!”

Whoosh!——

In the next instant, Bao Xiong’s figure shot out from where he stood, landing on the arena. His crushingly massive body towered over Wenren Zhan as he looked down and snickered, ”What, Ant, you’re not convinced?”

”Hmph! Then let’s see who’s the Ant!”

Wenren Zhan had his own confidence too. With a tap of his toe, a Gui Yi scene appeared—his Shadow behind him actually started to sway on its own!

Then the Shadow split into seven, each one holding a Shadow Blade, encircling Bao Xiong in the middle.

Zhuge Qingtian’s eyes flashed with a hint of approval. ”Didn’t expect that among the juniors, there’s actually someone who cultivated the Shadow Blade Technique to such a level!”

That Elder of Dragon Sword Mansion stroked his long beard, revealing a trace of pride. ”Wenren Zhan is Dragon Sword Mansion’s top-tier genius, one we only see once in a hundred years. Although his rank within the inner mansion isn’t first, his Strength is absolutely not to be underestimated!”

Zhuge Qingtian nodded slightly. ”That Demon Clan Young Master is far too arrogant. He actually sent out the weakest Bear Demon from the Bear Clan. In this first battle, Wenren Zhan might be able to take the win.”

Shadow Blade Technique, huh?

Ling Feng heard Zhuge Qingtian’s discussion and felt a bit curious in his heart.

That Wenren Zhan, though conceited, did indeed have some capability.

It’s just a pity that the outcome of this fight might be quite unexpected.

That Bao Xiong of the Giant Spirit Bear Clan was not the kind of brute who was all limbs and no brain as he looked on the surface.

”Big Stupid Bear, get the hell off the stage! Thousand Shadows King Sword Kill!”

With a low shout, the seven Shadow Clones Wenren Zhan had manifested instantly started spinning at high speed. For a moment, the sky was filled with wavering human figures; tens of thousands of streaks of Shadow Blade Sword Energy turned into countless black Shadow threads, like a spiderweb, blotting out the sky as they wrapped around Bao Xiong.

Bao Xiong’s brows twitched slightly. He suddenly threw his head back with a low roar, then slammed both Fists heavily into the ground.

Bam!

The arena immediately looked like a Volcanic Eruption. Shattered rocks turned into surging magma, which began to flow beneath his feet.

The scorching surge was like a giant dragon of Flames, wildly coiling, seemingly carrying the power to destroy heaven and earth.

Yet it couldn’t harm Wenren Zhan’s Shadows in the slightest.

Shadows are a Nihility-like existence; no matter how domineering or ferocious the magma’s Strength, it still couldn’t attack a Shadow.

Rip!——

However, though Wenren Zhan’s Nihility Shadows were hard for physical attacks to harm, they could still injure others!

In an instant, Bao Xiong’s entire body was bound up by black Shadows, making him unable to move even an inch.

Seeing his plan succeed, Wenren Zhan’s face held a mocking look. ”You were so loud and arrogant, yet your Strength is only this pathetic? Hahaha, fall for me!”

Wenren Zhan laughed wildly. With Bao Xiong bound tight by his Shadow Blade Technique, that Bao Xiong had no room left to turn the tables.

”Nice!”

”Well done!”

Below the arena, quite a few Human Warriors were so fired up their blood was boiling, loudly cheering.

No matter if they’d been on the same side before or not, in the showdown between the Human Clan and the Demon Clan, all humans naturally stood on the same front.

If Wenren Zhan won this match, they’d get to tag along into the Blood-colored Ancient Road. Even though they might not necessarily gain some fortuitous opportunity in the end, what if their luck exploded?

”Heh heh, this fight is over!”

The Elder of Dragon Sword Mansion narrowed his eyes with a smile. He understood well how formidable the Shadow Blade Technique was. To break it, you had to pull away in the very first moment. But Bao Xiong was already completely trapped within the Shadow Blade’s blockade.

He was doomed to lose!

Yet just then, something that made everyone’s eyes pop happened!

Behind Wenren Zhan, a burly, towering figure suddenly appeared, both hands folded across his chest, a mocking curve at his lips. ”What, you locked down one of my Clones with your Shadow, and you think you’re about to win?”

What?

Wenren Zhan stiffened all over, unable to believe that the other party had silently appeared behind him?

He took another look at the ”Bao Xiong” entangled by his Shadow Blades, only to see it turn into an illusory Shadow and dissipate into the Kong air.

”Damn it!”

Only then did Wenren Zhan jolt awake to reality.

He had naively assumed from the start that this Bao Xiong, looking so burly and massive and being from the Giant Spirit Bear Clan, would definitely only be good at Brute Force and unable to use other methods.

But in this battle, he didn’t lose to Strength; he lost to his own self-righteousness!

From the very beginning, he’d been fooled by Bao Xiong’s race and his appearance!

He’d been completely crushed by IQ!

”Heh heh, trash like you who can’t even tell the difference between the real body and a Clone should just stop embarrassing yourself out here!”

Bam!——

In the next moment, Bao Xiong chopped down with a hand blade carrying a biting gust of wind.

Wenren Zhan let out a muffled groan and fainted on the spot!

”Trash! Get off!”

With another kick, Wenren Zhan was sent flying like a dead dog, ruthlessly booted off the arena.

The whole place fell into dead silence!

The Human Clan’s first battle had actually... actually ended in such a miserable defeat!

Defeated in a single move!

Wenren Zhan was a top-tier genius of Dragon Sword Mansion, a powerful existence who had even challenged Saint Level experts before and still had the Strength to fight!

In this world where even the birds didn’t chirp, the Human Clan side was full of shock, confusion, fury, sorrow, and loss.

In contrast, the faces of the Demon Clan were full of sneers and ridicule.

So-called Human Clan geniuses were nothing more than this!

”Th-this...”

The Elder from Dragon Sword Mansion’s face flushed bright red. And to think he’d just declared that this battle was already over—and it truly was over, with Wenren Zhan being ended by the other side!

His old face had been slapped loud and clear!

”Ai... We’ve already lost one match!”

Hai Qinglan’s heart tightened. He had no time to blame Wenren Zhan for his incompetence and could only pin his hopes on the remaining two Human Clan representatives.

Ling Feng shrugged. As for Wenren Zhan’s defeat, he’d already expected it.

In battle, there’s no room for even a shred of self-righteousness.

Still, Wenren Zhan really was lying down now, so it looks like this time he’ll be lying his way to a win.
