Chapter 581 - A Profound Knowledge Will Never Be Useless!
students to the infirmary for examination. Teacher Liu, get someone to repair these holes in the wall within two days." Lu Qing continued.The way he handled things was to avoid the heavy issues and di...Chapter 581: Having Many Skills Is Always Advantageous!
Hao Ren was also stirred up by these two intense battles, the spirit pills in his Sea of Qi quivered restlessly.
All he had to do was remove Su Han's Five Sacred Peaks Bracelet and he could unleash his peak Gān level power at any time!
The Second Prince of Beihai and the Third Crown Prince of Nanhai looked at each other, seeking each other’s opinions through their eyes.
They had just cooperated to attack Hao Ren without activating their spirit energy, but they couldn’t even match up with Hao Ren's sword technique in terms of martial arts!
Hao Ren's sword technique was subtle and his sword light techniques were miraculous. However, if they admitted defeat like this, Beihai and Nanhai would have to bow down when they encountered Donghai in the future!
The multi-colored stone sword circled around Hao Ren round after round.
Hao Ren knew that one of them was a lower Gān level while the other was a middle Kūn level, and if he unleashed his peak Gān level power, things would get truly chaotic.
Especially since Su Han had set up the Five Sacred Peaks Bracelet for him in hopes that he wouldn't release energy that didn’t match his body anymore to avoid causing permanent damage.
A brief silence ensued.
Zeng Yitao and the Xihai elders did not speak, nor did Liu Yi observe the situation.
Even Zhao Yanzi was at a loss as to what to do next. As for the Second Prince of Beihai and Third Crown Prince of Nanhai, they were both still silently contemplating their options while their subordinates looked on anxiously at Hao Ren.
Hao Ren was an outstanding general who could even force back eighth-stage demon beasts, and just now he had repelled a combined attack from the Second Prince of Beihai and Third Crown Prince of Nanhai. His strength was formidable indeed!
Before anyone made any move, they needed to consider the consequences that would follow.
If it had merely been an exchange of skills just now, then the Second Prince of Beihai and Third Crown Prince of Nanhai had already lost; they should retreat obediently. If it had only been a test run, what followed would be serious business!
It seemed that Hao Ren was only in the middle Gèn level realm, forcing back eighth-stage demon beasts by clever use of sword light techniques. Neither Beihai nor Nanhai had witnessed Hao Ren's scene of slaughtering everything in the Dragon God Temple... However, Hao Ren’s sword technique truly could not be underestimated.
How did Donghaigong manage to recruit such a talented and extraordinary person!
The spirit pills in Hao Ren's Sea of Qi spun faster. Zhao Haoran's thousand-year cultivation seemed ready to burst forth.
"Haha, Brother Hao is really something, making things so serious!" The Second Prince of Beihai finally spoke up, "Training troops every day can be boring. Exchanging moves with Brother Hao makes one feel much more relaxed and refreshed!"
He then turned to the Third Crown Prince of Nanhai, "I often exchange skills with Younger Brother Song as well. For us military leaders, if we lose all our abilities, we'll really die on the battlefield!"
The Third Crown Prince of Nanhai’s expression suddenly froze for a moment; he hadn't expected that the Second Prince of Beihai, who had just dragged him into opposing Donghai, would capitulate so easily. He chuckled awkwardly, "Yes, when people are on equal footing, they should often spar!"
"Hmph!" Liu Yi let out a heavy cold snort, looking very dissatisfied.
If he can't win, he'll say it's a friendly match. But if he can win, perhaps it would force the Eastern Sea to withdraw its troops! Although郝仁 didn't voice his thoughts aloud, his disdainful expression was evident.
"From now on, whether my soldiers or officers are concerned, they will be under my jurisdiction alone and won’t require your intervention," said Hao Ren coolly.
The statement was calm but exuded immense authority!
Hao Ren decided to take action; not only to prevent Zeng Yitao from speaking further, but also to avenge Liu Yi.
Liu Yi was loyal and was a commander of the Eastern Sea. Using a position in the Northern Sea to pressure soldiers and commanders of the Eastern Sea was quite audacious!
Upon hearing Hao Ren’s words, Liu Yi felt incredibly inspired. Good! This Grand General Hao didn't lose to the Third Prince in terms of aura at all!
Thinking about how he had once challenged Hao Ren and boasted that he would have the Third Prince regain control over him, Liu Yi's dark face flushed red.
His meager abilities couldn’t even compare to one finger of Hao Ren’s!
The Second Prince of Northern Sea twitched his mouth, about to say something when Hao Ren continued, "However, if you still wish to engage in a friendly match, I shall gladly oblige!"
The Second Prince of Northern Sea's complexion alternated between pale and greenish. The Third Crown Prince’s fair skin also didn’t look good.
They had come with over ten commanders, pressing forward aggressively only to find themselves now being suppressed by Hao Ren!
A young punk who is a little more proficient in martial arts thinks I’m actually afraid of him The Second Prince of Northern Sea gripped his willow leaf saber tightly as he stared intently.
Hao Ren stood with his hands behind his back, deliberately provoking the Second Prince of Northern Sea into taking action. This Spirit Pill containing a millennium’s worth of energy wouldn’t tremble at any moment; using this opportunity to display his peak Heaven Rank realm to completely suppress both the Northern and Southern Seas would be beneficial in the long run.
Hum… hum…
Hao Ren suddenly felt that the Golden Light Shield in the Suijian Space had a slight reaction.
The Golden Light Shield seemed to have found its pillar of support, becoming restless and flying around within the Suijian Space.
With a thought from Hao Ren, he opened up the Suijian Space.
Swoosh!
The flickering golden light of the Golden Light Shield flew out from Hao Ren’s necklace.
The dazzling golden light immediately illuminated the rear hill and palace as if the sun had descended upon them!
As the Golden Light Shield swiftly rotated in mid-air, it instantly split into thousands of small golden shields, covering the entire Western Sea Dragon Palace and its surrounding waters!
The murky depths of the sea suddenly became incredibly bright! Every corner, every crevice was illuminated clearly!
"Heaven-reaching … spiritual treasure!"
The Third Prince of the South Sea and the Second King of the North Sea were both stunned, their eyes wide open.
The Nine Dragons Palace was opened every few decades. Over these hundreds of years, each of the four sea palaces had a few treasures from the Nine Dragons Palace. These treasures were considered top-grade treasures for small dragon palaces but weren’t particularly rare to the four major sea palaces.
However, heaven-reaching spiritual treasures with consciousness were an entirely different concept!
Neither the Third Prince of the South Sea nor the Second King of the North Sea had ever seen a heaven-reaching treasure that was "alive" and possessed consciousness. When Hao Ren released this treasure from his dimensional pouch, it instantly stunned them.
Hum!
The golden shield suddenly shone brighter again.
It immediately swept up all the spiritual energy in the vicinity of the West Sea Dragon Palace!
Several dozen blocks of West Sea Mystic Ice, which were hidden deep within the mountain range at the back of the West Sea Dragon Palace, were suddenly sucked out as well!
The legend that heaven-reaching treasures with consciousness had a special "Heaven Eye," allowing them to automatically seek out rare and precious materials was proven true.
The Second King of the North Sea, the Third Prince of the South Sea, and their generals all stared at the dazzling golden shield and its numerous duplicates, too shocked to speak.
East Sea Dragon Palace actually had such a treasure! The strength of East Sea was far beyond what they imagined!
Could it be that East Sea Dragon Palace was biding its time in obscurity all along!
The golden shield circled around the West Sea Dragon Palace and found that the peak Heaven grade aura still emanated from Hao Ren. It then gradually retracted, returning to a single golden shield.
Hao Ren sheathed his sword light and raised his left hand; the golden shield obediently returned to his palm. It hummed softly as if it was still trying to sense something with reluctance.
Everyone present, including Liu Yi and Zhao Yanzǐ, were so stunned that they didn’t know what to say.
Hao Ren knew the golden shield couldn’t escape because the Purple-Gold Hairpin was here. It would have to get past the hairpin first if it wanted to run away.
Seeing the dazzling light released by the golden shield, Hao Ren realized that Xu Ke had only unleashed about one-tenth of its true power!
Rattle rattle rattle …
The circular shield spat out several dozen blocks of West Sea Mystic Ice.
When Zeng Yitáo saw this, his face turned pale green. These few dozen blocks of West Sea Mystic Ice were the last strategic supplies hidden away by the West Sea Dragon Palace and could be considered their final reserve resources. They had never wanted to hand them over, but Hao Ren’s treasure had found all of it!
The pieces of West Sea Mystic Ice looked like transparent shards, cold, smooth, and slippery.
Hao Ren took out a small jade bottle containing medicinal pills and put all the West Sea玄冰 inside.
The Second Prince of Beihai and the Third Crown Prince of Nanhai watched silently as Hao Ren made these moves, and they both looked at the Golden Light Shield crouching on Hao Ren's shoulder without speaking another word.
Heaven-reaching divine treasures! These treasures don’t need to be controlled; they can fight based on their innate spiritual energy and instincts. Moreover, their power is incredibly terrifying!
Even if these two generals led all the officers in a full-scale attack, they wouldn't be able to break through the defenses of a heaven-reaching divine treasure or withstand its retaliatory strikes!
The fact that Hao Ren could get a heaven-reaching divine treasure to recognize him as its master was both terrifying in terms of his strength and luck.
However, they didn't know that the Golden Light Shield was temporarily residing in Hao Ren's mustard seed space and also under the suppression of the Purple Gold Hairpin; it wasn’t being controlled by Hao Ren!
"Prince Zeng, what did you want to say just now" Hao Ren turned around and asked Zeng Yitao.
"N-nothing!" Zeng Yitao was terrified as he looked at Hao Ren and shook his head hurriedly.
A heaven-reaching divine treasure like this one, Hao Ren could possess and enslave. How could they force him to withdraw In the face of such terrifying strength, it would be a blessing just to survive!
Thinking back on how he had offended and threatened Hao Ren several times before, Zeng Yitao was sweating profusely. As long as Hao Ren was slightly displeased with him, all it would take is one snap of his fingers for him to be wiped out.
"Second Prince, Third Crown Prince, do you have any more opinions" Hao Ren asked.
"N-no!" Facing such overwhelming strength, the two generals from Longgong’s army were also trembling inwardly and immediately shook their heads.
A heaven-reaching divine treasure What a joke! Even four or five experts at the乾坤level couldn't stop a heaven-reaching divine treasure!
If it was fully activated, with its might, it could instantly flatten an entire Longgong. Beihai and Nanhai didn’t want to follow in Xihai’s footsteps.
"Since that’s the case…" Hao Ren turned his head slightly, "Liu Yi, I see that the situation at the West Sea Dragon Palace isn't particularly stable. Send another 30,000 Black-armored Soldiers over for tight defense."
"Understood!" Liu Yi immediately clasped his hands and bowed low as he shouted loudly. His fists were clenched tightly, filled with excitement.
“It’s about time to go back for dinner,” Hao Ren muttered, pulling up Zhao Yanzi who had already fallen into a state of infatuation. He also tossed the small bottle containing the West Sea玄冰to Liu Yi. "Give this to Chancellor Xia; he can decide how to handle it."
Hao Ren opened his mustard seed space filled with rich spiritual energy, and the Golden Light Shield automatically entered. Hao Ren then pulled out the Purple Gold Hairpin and casually threw it into the air, transforming it into a golden treasure ship sixteen feet in length.
Whoosh…
The grandiose treasure ship carried Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi towards the sea surface.
Left behind were Liu Yi’s admiring gaze and the trembling eyes of many from Xihai, Nanhai, and Beihai.in his heart. He smiled and opened the car door, "Mom, drive safely!""Okay!" Yue Yang turned the steering wheel slowly to reverse.The sunlight was just right, making Hao Ren feel an overwhelming sense...
