Chapter 16: The Overlord of the Dry Heavens
"Hmph, even if you are imprisoned and let you fight, do you think you may be able to hurt me?" Shangguan said with a twitch of disdain.
"Hahaha, who said that if you kneel down, you must be defeated?" the white-haired old man laughed twice and mocked, "Within this absolute barrier, your spiritual power can't be released!"
Shangguan seemed to notice something, and pretended to be calm and said, "Hmph, it's impossible for you to hurt me if my spiritual power is restrained!"
"Still hard-mouthed?" the white-haired old man said with a smile, "Indeed, with the difference in strength between us, even if I can imprison you, I still can't hurt you, but it doesn't mean that the little ghost who is cultivating over there can also withstand our attack!"
Shangguan's face changed, and then he said: "I warn you, if you dare to hurt him, no matter where you flee, I will find you out and break your body into ten thousand pieces!"
"Hahaha!" the white-haired old man said disdainfully, "The old man has been a hunter all his life, do you think the old man will be afraid of death?" Shangguan only felt that his spiritual power had been oppressed indescribably in an instant, and all the spiritual power he had previously released had returned to his body after a few breaths.
The white-haired old man held his right hand weakly, and then a silver long sword appeared out of thin air, facing He Xuansheng and said softly: "Little ghost, although I have no grievances with you, if you want to blame, you will find an unlucky master!"
Saying that, the white-haired old man slowly raised the long sword in his hand, and was about to slash at He Xuansheng.
"Stop!" Shangguan tried his best to break through the barrier, but to no avail. Seeing that the white long sword was about to hit He Xuansheng, Shangguan gritted his teeth violently and shouted loudly: "Let him go, I will promise you any conditions." ”
The long sword suddenly stopped the moment before it hit He Xuansheng, and the white-haired old man turned around and smiled ghostly, and mocked: "I suddenly don't want to see you kneeling, I just want to see a young spirit beast master die in front of me now!"
After speaking, the white-haired old man turned his head, and a wicked smile gradually appeared on the white-haired old man's face, and the long sword in his hand quickly fell towards He Xuansheng, and said softly: "Die!"
"Whoosh-" A golden sword transformed by spiritual power shot out violently from the shadows on the side, aiming directly at the white-haired old man. The white-haired old man's whole body was shocked, and he quickly raised the long sword in his hand, only to hear a "ding" sound, and the spiritual power long sword melted in response, and the white-haired old man retreated five meters before slowly stabilizing his footsteps.
"Who, come out!" the white-haired old man stared at the gloom in front of him, while the other hunters gathered around, all of them pulling out their weapons and staring nervously ahead.
Only a soft roar was heard, and a cyan tiger slowly stepped out, staring directly at the group of hunters in front of him.
"Master, this is it, this is the spirit beast we caught earlier!" a purple-haired middle-aged man squeezed around the white-haired old man and said flatteringly, "We had already injured it, but we were robbed by the black-robed man!"
The white-haired old man glanced at the cyan tiger and snorted lightly, "Hmph, does a mere four-grade spirit beast want to make any big waves?"
"Hey, hey, it looks like we'll be able to kill two birds with one stone this time!"
The tiger spirit beast chuckled, raised its head and let out a heaven-shattering roar, and in an instant, the golden light burst out, and a black spiral horn slowly drilled out, and when the golden light dissipated, what appeared in front of him was a golden dragon spirit beast!
"This, this is..."The white-haired old man looked carefully at the dragon spirit beast in front of him, and said in surprise, "Black Horned Golden Dragon!"
"Master, master, are you saying that this is the overlord of the Qiantian Forest?" the purple-haired middle-aged man was also stunned, and asked with a little more shock on his face.
The white-haired old man nodded lightly and said, "Fortunately, this is only a juvenile black-horned golden dragon, but although it is only a fourth-grade spirit beast, its strength can be close to that of an ordinary fifth-grade spirit beast!"
Hearing this, the hunters stepped forward one after another, grinding their fists one by one, ready to attack and capture the spirit beast in front of them at any time.
The black-horned golden dragon looked at the hunters who came forward one after another, suddenly turned his head and roared softly, and then a figure slowly walked out from the shadows, this person was wearing a golden robe, a long black hair fluttering in the wind, and a pair of golden eyes were exuding a faint light all the time.
The black-haired middle-aged man glanced at the group of hunters in front of him, and said in a deep voice, "Your central city has long banned the existence of hunting envoys, why do you still enter the Qiantian Forest to hunt spirit beasts?"
The white-haired old man glanced at the black-robed middle-aged man, his spiritual power was quietly released, and he said while testing the strength of the middle-aged man: "Central City is Central City, and the rules it sets are enough for them to abide by themselves, what qualifications do they have to manage us?"
The black-robed middle-aged man looked at Shangguan who was imprisoned not far away, and then at He Xuansheng, who was absorbing spirit beasts, and said softly: "Two hundred years ago, I went to Central City with the other three forest kings to participate in the affairs related to the abolition of the hunting mission, and I was full of joy at that time, naively thinking that the dispute between humans and spirit beasts would end here. But in the past two hundred years, the number of you humans who have sneaked into our four major forests to poach spirit beasts has not decreased at all!"
The black-robed middle-aged man paused, withdrew his gaze that stayed on He Xuansheng, and suddenly his eyes burst out with golden light, and his right foot stepped heavily on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "This king warns you, if you humans are so unscrupulous again, just wait for the end to come!"
The white-haired old man and his party looked at the black-robed middle-aged man with a frightened face, but none of them tried to escape, because as early as the moment the black-robed middle-aged man stepped on his feet, the spiritual power of their group had already been completely dissipated by shock. At this time, even if they wanted to escape, none of them had the strength to take the first step.
The black-robed middle-aged man stepped forward slowly, lightly tapped the white-haired old man's eyebrows with his right hand, then turned around and said in a deep voice: "You have been marked by the golden dragon by me, I will give you three days, you go to Central City to warn the ten old immortals in Central City on my behalf." If you don't finish my mission after three days, you'll be dead!"
The black-robed middle-aged man looked at the other hunters and said, "As for you, let's abolish your spiritual power and attributes first!" With a wave of his right hand, those hunters only felt that their whole bodies were weak, and they all collapsed to the ground one by one.
"That kid...."The black-robed middle-aged man looked at He Xuansheng and said, "Spirit Beast Master, why can't I feel a trace of attribute from him?"
As he spoke, the black-robed middle-aged man's right hand shook He Xuansheng's weakly, and just as he was about to forcibly drag him over, a wind blade flew towards the black-robed middle-aged man.
The black-robed middle-aged man waved his right sleeve, and the wind blade cracked in response. At this time, Shangguan had already broken free from the shackles of the spirit mirror, quickly moved to He Xuansheng's side, tightly protected He Xuansheng behind him, and said in a deep voice to the black-robed middle-aged man: "The dignified overlord of the Heavenly Forest, is he too embarrassed to make a move on a child?"
"Dry, Qiantianlin Overlord?" the white-haired old man was shocked when he heard this, and his voice trembled, "You said he, he is the Black Horned Golden Dragon King?"
The black-robed middle-aged man glanced back at the white-haired old man, stretched out his left hand and slapped it towards the white-haired old man's void, only to hear a "boom", and the white-haired old man flew out in response and bombarded the stone wall on the side.
"Noise!" The black-robed middle-aged man turned his head, stared at the Shangguan's eyes, and said, "This king, the emperor." ”
Looking at the emperor in front of him, who had a noble and mighty aura, the hunters all lay quietly on the ground one by one, not daring to make the slightest sound. Although they had never seen the Black Horn Golden Dragon King, each of them knew that this so-called Emperor Zun had at least the strength of the late ninth grade, and he could be regarded as a generation of peak powerhouses in the human world, if he accidentally provoked this guy, maybe he would be destroyed in a thought.
Shangguan looked back at He Xuansheng, who was still cultivating, and said to Emperor Zun: "Your Majesty, I don't know if the apprentice has provoked you somewhat, why do you want to attack him?"
Emperor Zun snorted lightly, looked at Shangguan with disdain, and said, "What the deity wants, do you need any more reasons?"
Shangguan's face changed slightly, he looked at the arrogant Emperor Zun, took a deep breath, and said word by word: "My people, no one wants to move!"
"Hmph, that's not up to you!" Emperor Zun raised his right hand, his palm was weak, and a black ball of light gradually enlarged in his hand, and flew towards Shangguan violently.
Shangguan grabbed the void in his right hand, and a silver-white long sword fell into his hand, slashing down at the flying ball of light. Only a "boom" was heard, and the ball of light burst in response. Shangguan waved his right sleeve, and after waving away the smoke from the explosion, he said sharply to Emperor Zun: "Emperor Zun, don't deceive people too much!"
"Hahaha, except for those old immortals in Central City, the deity has never looked down on anyone!" Emperor Zun smiled contemptuously, and in a flash of his figure, he came to Shangguan, and his right hand slammed down on Shangguan. Shangguan's left hand spiritual power was instantly wrapped up, and after receiving a blow from Emperor Zun, he slashed towards Emperor Zun with the sword in his right hand. Emperor Zun flicked his left hand, and a layer of black scales quickly spread upward, turning into a fist and blasting straight towards the sword. I only heard a "boom", and two figures popped out in response, and after taking about ten steps back, they stopped one after another. Emperor Zun looked at Shangguan with a little surprise, snorted lightly, and shot out again, turning his right hand into a claw, and shouted: "The golden dragon breaks the empty claw!"
Shangguan looked at Emperor Zun, his hands were placed at his sides, palms facing up, and he saw a golden ball of thunder and lightning light appear in the palm of his right hand, and a red ball of flame light appeared in the palm of his left hand. Then Shangguan's hands suddenly merged in front of his chest, and when they parted again, a red and yellow ball of light appeared out of thin air. Shangguan glanced at Emperor Zun, and his spiritual power suddenly surged, and the ball of light in his hand slammed out towards Emperor Zun. Emperor Zun watched this ball of light with two elements quickly approaching, his right arm raised slightly, and his sharp claws grabbed directly towards the two-color ball of light.
"Boom-". The sound of the explosion resounded through the mountains and forests in an instant, and when the smoke dissipated, Shangguan spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his face was much paler than before. Emperor Zun, on the other hand, took nearly a dozen steps back, and a trace of blood slowly flowed from the corner of his mouth.
"It's been more than two hundred years, and it's been two hundred years since I was last injured by an old immortal. Emperor Zun looked at Shangguan and said softly, "Tell me, how did you fuse the two elements into one?"
"It's nothing, Your Majesty exaggerated. Shangguan said without humility, "It's just my attribute." ”
"Attributes?" Emperor Zun was stunned and said, "I don't remember any attributes that can be fused with elements?"
"Not really, but that doesn't mean I can't do it. ”
"What's your name?" Emperor Zun said lightly.
Shangguan glanced at Emperor Zun and said in a deep voice: "Shangguan Wenxiu!"
