Huang Tianqin tried to calm himself. However, his facial expression changed as soon as he saw the spear smashing down toward him. “Oh, no! It’s the Yin Force!” However, Huang Tianqin naturally knew how to resist the Yin Force. Immediately, he turned the purple and black war blade, facing the back of the blade toward Teng Qingshan.
Clang! A weird clash sounded.
Huang Tianqin gnashed his teeth and his face became increasingly red. A color wave of radiance flowed on the back of the blade, canceling out the Yin Force.
Pu!
The soundless resistance made Huang Tianqin feel even worse than when he was fighting forcefully. Immediately, he spat a mouthful of blood and quickly retreated. Liu Xia, who was also injured, showed a change of expression and shouted as he quickly flew over, “Martial Uncle!”
In the Blind Bear Mountain Range, the sunlight had become stronger.
However, the many elite disciples of Emperor Yu’s Hall were frightened. None of them could believe what they had just seen. “They lost? The two Martial Ancestors lost?”
“How could this be possible?” The Emptiness Realm Expert Yu Feng couldn’t believe it either. “My opponent is just an Emptiness Realm Expert. He’s not an Insightful Emptiness Realm Expert. Since the ancient times, nothing like this has ever happened. How could we lose to an expert who has only reached Emptiness Realm Culmination? Do we have to ask the to Honorable One come out just to deal with this expert?
…
Teng Qingshan landed on the ground and shot a glance at Huang Tianqin and Liu Xia, who both looked very pale.
“You stole the cultivation technique of the Xing Yi Sect, but you won’t admit it…” Teng Qingshan said with a smile. “Right. Emperor Yu’s Hall has been dominant for over 6000 years. However, I, Teng Qingshan, hate it the most when people take advantage of me.” With this, Teng Qingshan held up his Reincarnation Spear and walked toward the Sacred Palace with the height of seven stories.
Teng Qingshan had decided to first destroy the Sacred Palace and enter Yu Capital City and destroy a few palaces that belonged to Emperor Yu’s Hall. That was what he had planned to do.
If he wanted to take action, he might as well ensure that Emperor Yu’s Hall suffered great consequences.
He wanted to let all the other sects know the consequences of stealing the cultivation techniques of the Xing Yi Sect.
“Stop it,” Huang Tianqin couldn’t help but shout.
“Why? Do you still want to stop me?” Teng Qingshan wasn’t worried. He walked toward the Sacred Palace at a normal pace. “If you can, just stop me. If you want to die, I don’t mind helping you!” Teng Qingshan said as he walked toward the Sacred Palace. Simultaneously, he watched the surroundings and scrutinized every presence within his domain.
The trump card of Emperor Yu’s Hall!
Teng Qingshan didn’t dare to be careless at all. He was about to destroy the Sacred Palace, meaning that it would be very likely for Emperor Yu’s Hall to reveal its trump card.
“What could it be that helped Emperor Yu’s Hall survive for 6000 years?
“When the Heavenly Emperor of the Qin Mountains conquered the entire land of the Nine Prefectures, Emperor Yu’s Hall vanished without a trace. When the Heavenly Emperor of the Qin Mountains died, Emperor Yu’s Hall rose up very quickly. What did they rely on?” Teng Qingshan pondered as he walked toward the Sacred Palace.
…
Everyone knew that Teng Qingshan was going to destroy the Sacred Palace, but at this very moment, no one tried to stop him.
“How is this even possible?”
“Is the Sacred Palace really going to be destroyed? Impossible.”
The elite disciples were confused. They had always been taught that Emperor Yu’s Hall was powerful and unmoved by any other sect. The scene today obviously crumbled the absolute confidence they have had since young.
“Martial Uncle.”
“Elder Huang.”
Liu Xia and Yu Feng stared at Huang Tianqin anxiously. They needed Huang Tianqin’s approval to ask for the help of the Honorable One. After all, Huang Tianqin was the leader of Emperor Yu’s Hall for this generation.
Huang Tianqin clenched his fist and closed his eyes. He felt great pain in his heart. However, even if he closed his eyes, he could still sense Teng Qingshan’s powerful aura gradually approaching the Sacred Palace. “Do I have to ask for the help of the Honorable One? How many years have passed since we last asked for the help of the Honorable One? My generation of people has to ask the Honorable One for help?”
In the history of Emperor Yu’s Hall, if the Honorable One was asked to help a generation of people, this meant that the leader of this generation was useless and had no choice but to ask the Honorable One for help. This was shameful! It meant that the leader of that generation was useless!
“And now, I have to ask the Honorable One for help?
“Just because of an expert who has reached Emptiness Realm Culmination, I have to ask the Honorable One for help?” Huang Tianqin asked himself repeatedly. He felt so much pain. If it was Pei San of the Heavenly God Palace, Huang Tianqin wouldn’t feel that bad. However, Teng Qingshan was just an expert who had reached Emptiness Realm Culmination. In the history of Emperor Yu’s Hall, something like this has never happened before.
None of the leaders had ever been forced to ask the Honorable One for help just because of an expert who had reached Emptiness Realm Culmination.
“Ah! No! No!” Huang Tianqin was very conflicted and confused. He felt so many kinds of emotions.
Anger, shame, regret…
Teng Qingshan held the Reincarnation Spear as he stepped towards the Sacred Palace.
“Stop.” A shout sounded.
Teng Qingshan glanced at the young man who tried to stop him. He couldn’t help but grin, “Little fellow, don’t try to be a hero here. It’s not the time for you to pretend you are a hero.” With this, Teng Qingshan didn’t even care about this young fellow who tried to stop him as he continued walking. The power of the Heavens and Earth emanated from his body and sent the young fellow flying up into the air.
“Martial Brother!” The young fellow then landed nearby and many people immediately rushed over to help him get back on his feet.
Teng Qingshan didn’t bother looking as he continued walking toward the Sacred Palace.
The Sacred Palace was now 50 Zhang away!
40 Zhang… 30 Zhang… 20 Zhang!
The distance between Teng Qingshan and the Sacred Palace gradually decreased. As the elite disciples watched this, they were furious.
“What’s the trump card? Why isn’t it showing up?” As Teng Qingshan approached the Sacred Palace, he felt very tense and nervous. He was ready to fight at any moment.
16 Zhang… 10 Zhang…
9… 8…
The doors of the Sacred Temple were right before his eyes. Teng Qingshan had set his foot on the steps and a smile appeared on his face. Suddenly—
“Young man, stop!”
A deep-sounding voice suddenly resonated in his surroundings.
“Eh?” Teng Qingshan was shocked. It wasn’t Huang Tianqin, Liu Xia, or Yu Feng. Someone was obviously talking to him with the use of the Sound Transmission Technique, an act that could only be done by Emptiness Realm Experts.
“You must be…” Teng Qingshan looked around and said, “The towering existence that Emperor Yu’s Hall had relied on for six thousand years, right?”
Yet, when the voice sounded, Teng Qingshan didn’t notice Huang Tianqin’s entire body quivering.
“The towering existence that Emperor Yu’s Hall has relied on?” The voice sounded again. “I guess.”
“Eh?”
Teng Qingshan’s facial expression changed. He turned and looked toward Huang Tianqin. Through the control of his domain, he had detected a change. Huang Tianqin’s aura had changed from being colorful and vigorous to being vague. His aura was becoming like a black hole, so intense that no matter or radiation could escape.
“Honorable One!”
Suddenly, a voice sounded. “I don’t need you to step in.” Huang Tianqin suddenly opened his eyes and glared at Teng Qingshan.
“Martial Uncle, congratulations. You have finally achieved your goal,” Liu Xia said joyously.
“Elder Huang, congratulations,” Yu Feng said in excitement.
Huang Tianqin was the leader of this generation of Emperor Yu’s Hall disciples because he was the most talented one. He had reached Emptiness Realm Culmination long before Yu Tonghai and Liu Xia did. After he reached the Emptiness Realm Culmination, Huang Tianqin continued cultivating arduously and improving his skills and abilities.
However, no matter what, he just couldn’t reach the Insightful Emptiness Realm.
He didn’t expect…
The mental pressure and the feeling of relief upon hearing the voice of the Honorable One had actually pushed him through the last barrier, helping him through the obstacles that had been stopping him from reaching Emptiness Realm Culmination. Now he finally reached the Insightful Emptiness Realm!
Teng Qingshan watched Huang Tianqin as he said, “Insightful Emptiness Realm.”
At this moment, Huang Tianqin no longer had the aura of an Emptiness Realm expert. He had the same aura as that of Pei San and Qin Shiqi, an aura like a black hole. However, compared to Qin Shiqi and Pei San, the black hole formed by Huang Tianqin’s aura was much smaller.
“I did not expect…” Teng Qingshan said as he stared at Huang Tianqin. He then smiled and continued saying, “I really did not expect you to break through Emptiness Realm Culmination and reach the Insightful Emptiness Realm. I am impressed.”
“I have to thank you for this,” Huang Tianqin replied as he stared at Teng Qingshan.
“Thank me?”
Teng Qingshan smiled and said, “Huang Tianqin, actually, I have always been wondering how strong the Power of the Heavens and Earth is… According to my knowledge, because you have just reached the Insightful Emptiness Realm, your physical quality has not improved. This means that you are physically weaker than Pei San and Qin Shiqi. Secondly, you are just a beginner in the Insightful Emptiness Realm.”
“Even though I have just reached the Insightful Emptiness Realm… Even though my body has not become strong enough, I can still defeat you.” A cold glint flashed in Huang Tianqin’s eyes as he held the purple and black blade.
Teng Qingshan really felt like fighting. He could feel the excitement in his blood.
When he was fighting against Huang Tianqin and Liu Xia, he didn’t use his strongest technique, Five Elemental Toxic Dragon Drill.
“He has just reached the Insightful Emptiness Realm. The Insightful Emptiness Realm Experts are constantly pressured by the natural power in the Land of the Nine Prefectures. Moreover, his body has not become stronger,” Teng Qingshan thought to himself. “As for me, I should be considered the strongest Emptiness Realm Culmination Expert in history. My body is as powerful as the body of an Insightful Emptiness Realm Expert. With the Hong Tian Godly Armor, I think I am capable of fighting against him.”
Even when Pei San had struck the Emptiness Realm Expert You Shijin, You Shijin only died after a long time.
“I have the Hong Tian Godly Armor, and my body is much stronger than You Shijin’s. Even if Pei San struck me with his palm, I wouldn’t die, not to mention if Huang Tianqin did.
“This is a rare chance! A chance to fight an Insightful Emptiness Realm Expert.
“If I fight against the weakest Insightful Emptiness Realm Expert, I will learn more about the Insightful Emptiness Realm. It will help me reach the Insightful Emptiness Realm.” Teng Qingshan’s eyes gleamed. He was eager to fight. Liu Xia and Yu Feng both stared at each other, surprised that an Emptiness Realm Culmination Expert had the guts to challenge an Insightful Emptiness Realm Expert.
“Huang Tianqin, I want you to know that even a beginner in the Insightful Emptiness Realm can defeat any expert who has reached Emptiness Realm Culmination.” Huang Tianqin was prepared as he glared at Teng Qingshan.
“Haha, show me everything you got!” Teng Qingshan said as he lifted his longspear up horizontally and pointed the tip of the spear toward Huang Tianqin.
The strongest Emptiness Realm Culmination Expert and the weakest Insightful Emptiness Realm Expert….
Who would be stronger?
