No Way People Find Cultivation Difficult, Right? Chapter 173

Chapter 173 - Like A God, Like A Sun

Outside the Jin Nation Academy.

Everyone couldn’t help but look at Ye Ping curiously.

They did not understand what Ye Ping meant.

Everyone knew that Huangfu Tianlong had indeed lost.

However, they could not figure out why Ye Ping said that that was not the only meaning.

Even Huangfu Tianlong couldn’t help but look at Ye Ping.

He did not understand what Ye Ping meant.

“You lost to me because of strength. The difference between you and me is just too great.”

“My eldest Senior Brother once said.”

“A true peerless elite has to suffer losses while also gaining victory. So, even if you’ve lost to me, it doesn’t mean true defeat.”

“The future is full of infinite possibilities. Maybe tomorrow, maybe next year, you can surpass me.”

“Now if you swallow this drop of true blood, you may get a huge boost in strength.”

“However, true elites have to take every step on their own, and if you rely on external forces, you will never be able to become a true powerhouse.”

Ye Ping’s voice was calm.

That was his explanation.

Huangfu Tianlong was strong. He was indeed an elite. Although he had lost to Ye Ping, his defeat was not considered much.

The future was full of infinite possibilities.

However, if it was for the sake of winning, taking the drop of true blood was considered defeat in Ye Ping’s opinion.

Everyone couldn’t help but be silent after he said that.

Ye Ping’s words were full of an ambiguous meaning.

However, Huangfu Tianlong naturally understood, and he was even clear of Ye Ping’s words.

The drop of true blood would allow him to break through to the seventh level of Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique if he swallowed it.

However, it would be impossible to say that there were no effects at all.

As long as that drop of true blood was swallowed, the forced breakthrough to the seventh level would be a great hindrance to his cultivation in the future.

The Great Dragon-Elephant Ancient Art itself was all about stability and steadiness.

If one tried to break through with the help of external forces, they might not be able to break through to the eighth level.

However, Huangfu Tianlong had his own plans.

After swallowing the blood, he had to be defeated.

Indeed, he had to be defeated.

As long as he was defeated, he would better understand his flaws and shortcomings. Only then would he focus on cultivation.

He could use defeat to hone his Dao Heart.

He was actually afraid of victory because defeating Ye Ping was not a very honorable thing, and it was normal to break through to the seventh level with the help of the true blood of the flood dragon.

If he lost to Ye Ping and used that to hone his Dao Heart, he would be able to counteract the side effects brought by the flood dragon’s true blood.

However, if he won a battle against an elite of the same generation, his Dao Heart would be at ease and his thoughts would be clear and that would be beneficial to cultivation.

In the eyes of Huangfu Tianlong, the difference between him and Ye Ping was not too large and the only difference between them was in age.

He was confident that after four years, he would be able to break through to the seventh level.

He thought that Ye Ping had cultivated four years earlier than him.

Hence, swallowing the blood of the flood dragon was not considered an external force. It could only be considered a shortcut of four years.

That was also the reason that once he won, there would be a certain effect, but once his thoughts were clear, there would be no regret.

If he lost, he could take this opportunity to refine his Dao Heart and counteract the effects of swallowing the blood of the flood dragon.

No matter what, he would be able to stabilize his Dao Heart, and hence, Huangfu Tianlong felt that he was already unbeatable.

However, Huangfu Tianlong had no idea that he already wanted to win now.

“I want a truly fair fight and I don’t want to leave any regrets behind.”

“However, you can choose to refuse. You have the right to do it.”

Huangfu Tianlong spoke again.

He stood firm to his thoughts.

It was up to Ye Ping whether he was willing to agree or not.

At this moment, all eyes were on Ye Ping.

Whether they would fight or not depended on Ye Ping’s intention.

“Senior Brother Ye, don’t agree to it. The seventh level of the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique is not to be underestimated. You’ve already won, so there’s no need.”

“Yes, Senior Brother Ye, there is no need to agree to the battle.”

There were sounds coming from the academy.

They still did not want Ye Ping to agree to the battle.

It wasn’t that they didn’t believe in Ye Ping’s strength, but the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique was overbearing.

“Is the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique really very powerful?”

“That goes without saying. The Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique is the best Body Tempering technique in the Ten Nations, second only to the Great Xia Dynasty’s Ancient Dragon Dao. Besides, it’s inferior to the Great Xia Dynasty’s Ancient Dragon Dao precisely because it’s hard to cultivate the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique.”

“Yes, the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique is said to be able to allow one to rip apart a true immortal after one reaches the 13th level. This is no laughing matter at all.”

“The most terrifying thing is that advancement in the first five levels of the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique will only allow one’s physique to be strengthened, but once you reach the sixth level, there will be a qualitative change and your physique will become like that of a dragon. At the seventh level, there will be another qualitative change, equivalent to the gap between the Foundation Establishment and Golden Core realms.”

“The two cannot be compared on the same basis, but we are certain about one thing, and that is when one is at the seventh level of the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique, he will be invincible to those below the Nascent Soul realm.”

“If it’s only in terms of physique, he will be invincible to those below the Nascent Soul realm.”

“There is indeed no need for Ye Ping to continue the battle because he has already won.”

“This is not about whether or not it’s necessary. Even if Ye Ping wants to fight, what can he do? I doubt he can really defeat someone at the seventh level of the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique.”

“Yes, he might not necessarily win.”

The surrounding cultivators were discussing.

Some knew how strong the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique was and thought that Ye Ping would not necessarily win. Hence, all of them felt that there was no need to fight anymore.

However, at this moment, Huangfu Tianlong spoke again.

“Senior Brother Ye, fight with me fairly.”

Feeling indignant, Huangfu Tianlong hoped that Ye Ping would agree.

He just didn’t want to have any regrets.

“I agree to the battle.”

Under the academy, Ye Ping said slowly

He had given his answer.

He accepted Huangfu Tianlong’s challenge.

After he said that, tens of thousands of cultivators were all in an uproar outside the academy.

“Has he agreed?”

“He has the audacity to agree too?”

“Ah, Ye Ping does have a strong backbone.”

“Tsk, tsk, Ye Ping has really shot to fame in the Ten Nations.”

“Jin Nation has really produced an elite.”

“I’m really looking forward to this big battle. Do you guys think Huangfu Tianlong will be defeated by Ye Ping even if he swallows the true blood of the flood dragon?”

“That’s impossible. At the seventh level of the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique, it’s impossible for him to be defeated by a single punch unless Ye Ping’s physical body is extremely invincible.”

The people discussed and tens of thousands of voices made the scene seem extremely lively.

Outside the academy, Huangfu Tianlong also seemed incredibly excited after receiving Ye Ping’s consent.

It was because Ye Ping could refuse his request, but if Ye Ping did so, it would be one of his regrets.

That regret would one day turn into a mental demon.

Now that Ye Ping had given him this opportunity, he didn’t have any more regrets.

At the thought of this, Huangfu Tianlong couldn’t help but bow towards Ye Ping.

“Thank you, Senior Brother Ye Ping, no matter if I win or lose this battle, I will acknowledge you as my Senior Brother willingly.”

Huangfu Tianlong said in an extremely serious manner.

The meaning of his words was simple.

Regardless of whether he won or lost, he would always remember the kindness and favor that Ye Ping had done him. He would also call Ye Ping his Senior Brother.

Ye Ping smiled. He did not have any hostility towards Huangfu Tianlong, and now, he had gained a good impression of him.

He remained silent and simply nodded.

On the other hand, Huangfu Tianlong did not say much and simply swallowed the true blood of the flood dragon.

In the blink of an eye, the terrifying power of blood and Qi diffused and revolved around Huangfu Tianlong whose physical body was torn apart. However, he was also hit by the blood and Qi in an instant.

Roar!

The dragon roars filled the air and Huangfu Tianlong frowned. He was in great pain. Swallowing a drop of blood from a ten-thousand-year-old flood dragon was not comfortable for him.

The pain of his flesh being constantly torn apart and then repaired was something no one could understand.

For him, this was almost a kind of torture. If he could get through it, everything would be fine but if not…

That would be troublesome.

Among the crowd, there were people who were staring at Huangfu Tianlong intently.

He was a genius. To many people, a genius like Huangfu Tianlong should appear.

For example, the Fiendcelestial Cult.

For example, many of the rivals of Nan Nation.

Ye Ping sensed something different.

However, this is the Jin Nation Academy and no one dared to act impulsively. If they were outside, they would have probably attacked.

Boom.

In an instant, Ye Ping moved his hands and the Blood and Qi Furnace appeared to suppress Huangfu Tianlong.

The appearance of the Blood and Qi Furnace helped Huangfu Tianlong stabilize the power of the dragon.

Huangfu Tianlong was also quietly cultivating.

Time passed bit by bit.

Two full hours passed.

In an instant, Huangfu Tianlong’s aura immediately became extremely terrifying.

Clang.

The Blood and Qi Furnace was blown away.

A ten-feet-long True Dragon and a ten-feet-long divine elephant appeared in front of everyone.

Huangfu Tianlong’s strength had been enhanced greatly.

The dragon and elephant roared.

The sounds spread throughout the entire Jin Nation capital.

At this moment, Huangfu Tianlong’s aura alone could make the void quiver and was more than a hundred times stronger than before.

Everyone was stunned and many cultivators swallowed their saliva. They looked at Huangfu Tianlong in disbelief.

Some elites even seemed to be full of despair.

Huangfu Tianlong was strong in the first place but he was now invincible. How could they fight him in the future?

Most importantly, Huangfu Tianlong was only 18 years old.

He had reached the seventh level of the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique.

At this rate, it would be reasonable for him to break through to the eighth level within a hundred years. Within a thousand years, he might break through to the ninth level. Physique was the main thing to be cultivated in the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique which could also lengthen one’s lifespan. It shouldn’t be a problem for him to live to 10,000 years old.

It was very possible to break through to the tenth level during his lifetime.

By then, he might even face difficulties tearing apart a Mahayana powerhouse, let alone a true immortal.

Such an existence would be enough to make a nation prosper for tens of thousands of years.

“Thank you for protecting me, Senior Brother.”

Huangfu Tianlong opened his eyes. He knew what happened, and hence, he immediately thanked Ye Ping.

“It’s alright,” Ye Ping said indifferently.

Huangfu Tianlong’s voice immediately sounded again.

“Senior Brother Ye, can we have a battle outside the city?”

He looked at Ye Ping with his eyes full of battle intent.

“Alright.”

Ye Ping nodded, his eyes full of battle intent too.

Huangfu Tianlong had advanced and progressed more than a hundred times, and was indeed qualified to fight him.

However, it was hard for him to exert his strength here so they had to go out of the city.

“Senior Brother Ye, then let’s compete to see who gets to the outside of the city first.”

Huangfu Tianlong didn’t say much and simply vanished right on the spot before rushing out of the city like a bolt of lightning.

Ye Ping looked calm, but also transformed into a bolt of lightning and disappeared right on the spot to chase after Huangfu Tianlong.

After advancing to the seventh level, Huangfu Tianlong was indeed much stronger than before, be it in terms of aura or realm.

At this moment, Huangfu Tianlong could also easily defeat his previous self.

“Hurry up and go take a look.”

“It’s a great battle between elites.”

“I don’t know who will win and who will lose in this battle.”

“Huangfu Tianlong should be the winner. He’s at the seventh level of the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique.”

“Why does it seem that the seventh level doesn’t sound impressive but is actually so powerful?”

“There is almost no one who is above the tenth level so there are actually only ten levels in the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique. He reached the seventh level at the age of eighteen, don’t you think he’s really competent?”

Countless cultivators ran after Huangfu Tianlong and Ye Ping.

They all wanted to watch the battle with their own eyes.

After all, it was rare to witness a battle between elites .

Hundreds of thousands of cultivators rushed out of the capital while the disciples of the Jin Nation Academy also went mad and defied the academy’s orders. Instead, they went to observe the battle.

In fact, there were many powerful nobles in the Jin Nation Kingdom who went to watch the battle too.

This battle was definitely of extraordinary significance, and in fact, it could even predetermine the Ten Nations Grand Tournament.

It naturally attracted the attention of the powerhouses who surrounded to watch.

However, when the cultivators were chasing.

Outside the capital of Jin Nation.

Ye Ping had already appeared outside the capital of the nation.

Although he was only less than three breaths faster than Huangfu Tianlong, he was much faster.

However, that was also a type of distance.

There were endless great mountains outside the Jin Nation capital.

Ye Ping and Huangfu Tianlong arrived on a mountain, and the two of them watched each other.

Hundreds of thousands of cultivators also arrived later, but fortunately, Ye Ping and Huangfu Tianlong had not started the battle yet when they arrived.

“Senior Brother Ye, I have advanced to the seventh level of the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique. It’s your turn to strike first.”

Huangfu Tianlong said. He wanted Ye Ping to make the first move because in his opinion he had already undergone a drastic change, and if Ye Ping did not get a head start, it would be unfair to him.

The cultivators could not help but nod.

Indeed, now that Huangfu Tianlong had become stronger again, Ye Ping had to make the first move, or else he would suffer a big loss.

However, to everyone’s surprise, Ye Ping shook his head.

“It’s alright, you may just strike.”

On the cliff, Ye Ping’s tone was indifferent and he simply stood with his hands by his side, staring at Huangfu Tianlong with confidence in his eyes.

“Senior Brother Ye, this…”

Huangfu Tianlong wanted to say something.

However, after seeing Ye Ping’s appearance, he ended up being silent before speaking again.

“In this case, I shall trouble you to teach me, Senior Brother Ye.”

As soon as he finished, the Dragon-Elephant painting appeared behind Huangfu Tianlong again.

His body was invincible and his long golden hair made him seem godly.

As soon as he rushed over, all the mountains and rocks within a hundred meters under his feet shattered and the mountains trembled.

Roar!

The mountains quaked incessantly and he seemed to be charging towards Ye Ping invincibly before turning into a long white dragon.

It was an extreme battle, and Huangfu Tianlong did not have any trump card at all. He attacked with all his might so as to not leave any regrets.

Everyone was astonished at this point.

Some were also curious how Ye Ping should deal with it.

On the other mountain, Ye Ping didn’t hesitate to strike with his Ancient True Dragon Fist.

At this moment, a sanguine True Dragon appeared behind Ye Ping.

Roar!

The few surrounding mountains quaked and the terrifying power caused all the cultivators to feel suffocated.

They did not dare to imagine that this was the power of a human.

“Qi and Blood True Dragon! He actually condensed the Qi and Blood True Dragon!”

“No wonder he’s fearless.”

“There’s a mistake in the information we received, This is not the Blood and Qi Furnace but the Qi and Blood True Dragon.”

“I was wondering why Ye Ping dared to take on the battle, I didn’t expect that he had actually condensed the Qi and Blood True Dragon.”

“This is an extreme battle between elites who are at the Foundation Establishment realm. I never thought I would actually witness such a battle in my lifetime.”

“Regardless of victory or defeat, Ye Ping’s name is taking the Ten Nations by storm.”

“At the age of twenty-two, he condensed the Qi and Blood True Dragon. How can there be such a genius?”

“Jin Nation is going to make a comeback now that a talent has emerged.”

The hundreds of thousands of cultivators were shocked, and there were even many old cultivators who were screaming and pointing at Ye Ping with incredible gazes.

They were all astonished and in an uproar.

A few thousand meters away, Ye Ping and Huangfu Tianlong collided.

Boom.

At this moment, the void collapsed.

Immediately afterwards, it became distorted and black substances emanated while the mountains shattered. Their power had already reached the level of the perfection of the Golden Core realm.

A white dragon and a blood dragon were fighting hard against each other.

Ye Ping struck like a god while his hair danced in the wind, making him look like an immortal fiendcelestial. He struck the Dragon fist with his left hand and the dragon seal with his right.

Huangfu Tianlong was even crazier as he struck with the Dragon-Elephant fist. The intense battle even changed the appearance of the sky.

Boom!

The mountains were shattered and the hundred-feet-long True Dragon fought in the sky amidst continuous roars.

Ye Ping and Huangfu Tianlong were also constantly exchanging blows.

Both of them launched punches that were domineering and invincible.

Huangfu Tianlong was like a heavenly god.

Indeed, after reaching the seventh level, his strength had changed qualitatively and he had become much stronger than before.

However, Ye Ping was also godlike as he was emitting golden rays of light while his physique was even superior to a True Dragon.

Bang!

Their fists collided and emitted terrifying sounds again.

“Great True Dragon Hand Seal ”

Like a god, Ye Ping formed a seal with both hands and transformed into a True Dragon that sent Huangfu Tianlong flying and crushing a small mountain.

“The divine elephant is invincible.”

However, in the next moment, Huangfu Tianlong charged over like a heavenly god and a divine shadow surfaced above Ye Ping’s head before stomping and trampling all over him.

Boom.

Ye Ping’s physical body trembled and his Qi and blood rolled, but he was not injured nor did he seriously injure Huangfu Tianlong.

Their strengths were almost on par.

There was an equal exchange of blows.

The good thing was that they were battling outside. If they had fought inside the capital, countless buildings would have been destroyed.

The mountains were shattered during their intense battle.

As the battle progressed, they both became more and more aggressive and ferocious.

In the end, they cast endless means and their moves were considered peerless.

“Torch Dragon Ancient Seal.”

In the end, Ye Ping activated the Torch Dragon Ancient Seal and his aura became stronger again while he opened his palms and a Taiji Diagram appeared. Like a grinding wheel, it suppressed Huangfu Tianlong.

The latter retaliated with the Dragon Fist and Elephant Seal, constantly blasting the Taiji Diagram, and even when his fists were bleeding, he still didn’t show a trace of fear.

Boom.

In the end, the Taiji Diagram was shattered, and Huangfu Tianlong’s fist hit Ye Ping’s shoulder, breaking it.

Fortunately, Ye Ping’s constitution had now reached an extremely terrifying state where his broken bones would heal immediately and become stronger than before.

After receiving a punch, Ye Ping’s face remained unchanged, and instead, he raised his hand, and the terrifying aura turned into a dragon spear that darted towards Huangfu Tianlong like a bolt of lightning.

The latter condensed the Elephant Seal and retaliated with the supreme power of the elephant.

However, the Dragon Spear was incredible as it shattered the Dragon-Elephant immediately.

In the next moment, Ye Ping’s fist was like a dragon that constantly bombarded his body and emitted rumbling sounds.

Countless cultivators were dumbfounded.

The extreme combat between the two was astonishing.

If it was a fight between two Golden Core realm cultivators who attacked with Dharmic Dao, they wouldn’t be shocked at all.

However, it was merely physical combat and it was too terrifying to blast the mountains with the power of one’s physical body.

Boom.

Huangfu Tianlong’s sternum was blown apart but he also broke free from Ye Ping’s ferocious attacks.

In an instant, the two stood on separate hills.

Huangfu Tianlong panted heavily and his lapel was stained with golden blood, while Ye Ping was also adjusting his primordial energy. Although he was injured, it was not too severe and he could still take it.

“Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!”

Huangfu Tianlong guffawed loudly.

The battle was extremely smooth for him.

However, in the next moment, Huangfu Tianlong looked at Ye Ping with an extremely calm gaze.

“Senior Brother Ye, let’s make one last strike without any restraint. Otherwise, the victory won’t be decided.”

He wanted to end everything with one last move.

“Alright.”

Ye Ping responded with a single word, showing his confidence and extraordinariness.

All the cultivators in the capital of Jin Nation came out. Standing several thousand meters apart from each other, they watched the intense battle.

“Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon!”

“Ancient Divine Elephant!”

“Dragon-Elephant Divine Power!”

“Invincibility of body!”

Huangfu Tianlong roared, and at this moment, he turned into a dragon and an elephant that bombarded towards Ye Ping.

At this moment, Ye Ping closed his eyes.

In his mind, the shadow of the ancient Godfiend appeared.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Ping opened his eyes.

A terrifying figure appeared behind him, and although it was blurry, it seemed to be standing above billions of stars in the 33rd Heaven, mastering the Five Elements while being entangled with the Great Dao.

Boom.

A shining golden fist blasted out.

The Jin Nation capital became extremely radiant in the evening.

It was as dazzling as the sun.

Boom!

The two of them clashed and an unprecedentedly massive power emerged, just like a full-blown strike from a Nascent Soul realm powerhouse.

A huge mountain shattered on the spot, and all of a sudden, the earth quaked and the mountains shook, and the array formations in the capital activated immediately without being affected.

Smoke rose in all directions.

All the cultivators held their breaths, and the dazzling golden light made it hard for them to open their eyes.

They did not know who had won.

They looked really curious.

“Who won?”

“It should be Huangfu Tianlong, right?”

“No, it’s likely to be Ye Ping.”

“Ye Ping has the Qi and Blood True Dragon and an invincible physical body. He has a greater chance of winning.”

“Huangfu Tianlong was not weak either. The seventh level of the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique was inexplicable and miracles could be created too.”

“Yes, Huangfu Tianlong can create miracles.”

They were all filled with curiosity, and there were already about a million cultivators who were watching.

They were viewing the battle from afar.

Finally, the smoke and light vanished.

Everyone saw a beam of light, flying down and landing on a mountain.

All of a sudden, everyone couldn’t help but look over.

The mountain was wrecked and shattered. There was a figure standing at the top.

It was… Huangfu Tianlong.

In the sky dome…

It was Ye Ping…

He was like a god.

He was also like a dazzling sun.

That scene was etched deeply in the minds of the cultivators forever.
