The River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting dashed out of the Dragon God Shrine and toward the East Ocean Dragon Palace.
Little White turned into its puppy form and bit Hao Ren's heel, barking excitedly and complaining that Hao Ren didn't bring it along to show off in such a powerful battle.
Although it wasn't intelligent yet, it was much smarter than other pets. It knew that Qin Shaoyang was a bad guy, and it was happy for Hao Ren that Hao Ren defeated Qin Shaoyang majestically.
Premier Xia looked at Hao Ren with admiration, but it wasn't convenient for him to praise Hao Ren since Zhao Kuo had just lost to him.
It was the first time that the East Ocean Dragon Clan participated in the Dragon God Shrine's general exams, and Hao Ren had won a lot of honor for the East Ocean Dragon Clan. Zhao Hongyu was so excited that her face turned red, but she didn't let the victory get to her head. After a pause, she asked Hao Ren, "Ren, how did you reach peak Qian-level? That black sword was the old dragon king's personal weapon. Why did he give it to you?"
Even though Zhao Hongyu was smart, she didn't know that the old dragon king, Zhao Haoran, had reached the end of his lifespan.
Zhao Kuo's face darkened, and she didn't speak.
"Auntie, I'll tell you in detail when we get back to the East Ocean Dragon Palace." Hao Ren didn't know how to explain it to Zhao Hongyu, but he knew that Zhao Guang and the others would find out about Zhao Haoran sooner or later.
He wanted to defeat Zhao Kuo to prove himself, and Zhao Kuo didn't want to lose to Hao Ren, who was a junior. Therefore, the battle became more and more intense, and the result was that Hao Ren's meridians were continuously shaken, and the elixir core that contained Zhao Haoran's 1,000-year cultivation strength shook a little.
Hao Ren was able to suppress the elixir core with the power of nature. When he used up all his nature essence to defeat Zhao Kuo, Zhao Haoran's 1,000-year cultivation strength was released unintentionally.
At this moment, Zhao Haoran's 1,000-year cultivation strength was rampaging in Hao Ren's body, and it was enough to make Hao Ren feel like he would rather be dead than alive!
It was all thanks to his willpower that Hao Ren was able to keep his composure and speak.
"Ok …" Zhao Hongyu thought that Hao Ren must be tired after fighting several battles. Although she still had many questions, she didn't continue to ask.
Hao Ren sat down cross-legged, frowned, and adjusted his breathing. Zhao Haoran's strength was too powerful, and he couldn't control it with his mid-tier Gen-level realm.
On the other hand, if Hao Ren were at Zhen-level, his body would explode and he would die if he used this power.
Zhao Kuo looked at him and snorted lightly. His face was a little pale, but he wasn't really injured.
In this battle, Hao Ren had shown his strength and prestige. In the end, they both wanted to defeat each other, and Zhao Yanzi was the key to it.
Zhao Kuo wanted to prove that Hao Ren was not strong enough, but Hao Ren wanted to prove that he was not weak. From the bottom of their hearts, they weren't fighting for the victory but for Zhao Yanzi!
"Gongzi …" Lu Linlin and Lu Lili sat on either side of him and put their hands on his shoulders to help him regulate his internal energy.
With their Qian-level cultivation strength, they worked together to help Hao Ren. Gradually, the rampaging nature essence in Hao Ren's body calmed down.
Zhao Yanzi turned to look at Hao Ren and then at Zhao Kuo who was also meditating. After a moment of consideration, she picked up the furry Little White and sat in a corner of the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting.
Xie Yujia exhaled deeply. Standing on the edge of the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting, she looked at the white clouds passing by and finally relaxed.
Each of Hao Ren's battles was thrilling, and Xie Yujia stood on the sidelines and watched Hao Ren's every move. Of course, she was also very nervous.
At this moment, Hao Ren came back victorious. Xie Yujia, who was watching the battle, felt exhausted as if she had won several matches.
Zhen Congming sat on the top of the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting with his back to the crowd. He took out a pen and paper from his necklace and started writing.
In fact, he had always wanted to go to the Dragon God Shrine, but he never had the chance.
This time, he went with Zhao Guang and the others to the Dragon God Shrine's general exams. However, he wasn't interested in the battles between the low-leveled Dui-level, Xun-level, and even Kun-level cultivators. From the beginning to the end, except for the battle between Hao Ren and Zhao Kuo, he was observing the layout inside and outside of the Dragon God Shrine.
The Dragon God Shrine was the headquarters of the dragon cultivators, and the resources they had were even more than the four ocean dragon palaces.
Zhen Congming lived with Qiu Niu in the East Ocean Dragon Palace for the time being, and he couldn't poach from the East Ocean Dragon Palace no matter how shameless he was. As for the West Ocean Dragon Palace, he got a lot of treasures from them and made a flight dharma treasure for Little White.
However, the Dragon God Shrine was different. Zhen Congming wasn't a dragon cultivator, and he wasn't familiar with the Dragon God Shrine. To him, the famous Dragon God Shrine was a treasure mountain.
Gradually, Zhen Congming's white paper was filled with complicated lines, symbols, and annotations. It was more complicated than the most complicated mathematical reasoning and stricter than the most rigorous architectural design.
Even if it fell into the hands of the most famous scientist in the world, he wouldn't be able to understand it. With Zhen Congming's IQ, the linear algebra and advanced mathematics that had defeated many students in university were child's play!
As a master of array formations, Zhen Congming could overturn the most complicated mathematical theories and laws of physics in the world!
If he wanted to learn programming, he would be the most powerful hacker in the world!
In just one hour, he had deduced and even recreated the array formation outside the Dragon God Shrine. If this wasn't insane, then what was it?
Zhen Congming was a bit arrogant, but his IQ was indeed a genius among geniuses!
The River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting flew in the sky above the white clouds. Everyone was quiet. Some were meditating, and some were deep in thought. Everyone had their own plans and concerns.
"We are here," Zhao Hongyu suddenly said.
Hao Ren opened his eyes and saw that they were above the sea. The port of East Ocean City was about ten kilometers away from them.
With the help of Lu Linlin and Lu Lili, the exploding nature essence in his body was finally stuffed back into the elixir core in his Qihai Acupoint, and it was sealed by the trace of pure natural essence.
"Congratulations, Gongzi!" Lu Linlin and Lu Lili stood up from his side and said in a crisp voice.
Although they were all at Qian-level, Zhao Haoran's 1,000-year cultivation strength was at peak Qian-level. Now that they were done, they were all sweaty, and half of their silk dresses were soaked.
Hao Ren clenched his fists and stood up. The dragon core near his Dantian felt refreshed, and the number of openings he had unlocked reached 178.
Zhao Haoran's 1,000-year cultivation strength was forcefully charging into his body and taking back the elixir core bit by bit. In fact, he was using the peak Qian-level cultivation strength to cleanse Hao Ren's body, and the benefits were obvious.
Hao Ren's body experienced a tug-of-war of nature essence equivalent to that of three Qian-level cultivators. Of course, he sweated more than Lu Linlin and Lu Lili did.
However, his sweat wasn't the crystal-clear sweat of Lu Linlin and Lu Lili. Instead, it was black and smelly sweat!
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili stood beside Hao Ren and looked at him with smiles. They didn't mind Hao Ren's smelly sweat at all.
Hao Ren looked down at the layer of muddy dirt on his skin and knew that his physique had greatly improved again!
The congratulatory words of Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were actually referring to this!
"Ah! It stinks!" Zhao Yanzi, who was dozing off with Little White in her arms, suddenly smelled the stench coming from Hao Ren's body and couldn't help but yell.
"Hehe, please go wash yourself, Gongzi!" Lu Linlin pushed Hao Ren off the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting with her jade-like hands.
Hao Ren fell from a height of hundreds of meters, and huge waves were surging below him!
If it were in the past, Hao Ren would have yelled in panic. But now, Hao Ren wasn't panicking at all!
Splash!
Hao Ren's body fell into the sea, and the waves instantly covered up the small waves. After being tempered by the heavenly lightning bolts, Hao Ren's body was much stronger. The collision between his skin and the waves didn't affect Hao Ren's body at all.
Hao Ren moved his legs and swam dozens of meters under the surface of the sea. He had lived by the sea and knew how to swim. Now, his body was much more flexible than before, and his strength had increased by dozens of times. With a little bit of effort, he could move quickly in the sea like a tuna.
The seawater washed away the mud on Hao Ren's skin, and his pores felt more comfortable.
Grabbing the two robes that were tied together, Hao Ren casually put on one of them. Then, he dashed out of the ocean while stepping on a grey sword energy.
Hua!
Hao Ren felt refreshed and jumped onto the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting that was hundreds of meters high! His face turned from black to clean, and his hair was wet, giving him a sense of handsomeness.
The stench was gone, and it was replaced by the salty smell of the sea.
"Gongzi has become more handsome!" Lu Linlin took the opportunity to flatter Hao Ren. Standing beside Lu Linlin, Lu Lili covered her mouth and giggled. She looked at Hao Ren with admiration in her eyes.
Xie Yujia looked at Hao Ren with a faint smile and didn't say anything.
"Handsome, handsome, handsome! What's the use of being handsome? It's not like you can make a living! "Zhao Yanzi yelled and couldn't help but look at Hao Ren.
"Auntie, let's go back to the East Ocean Dragon Palace as soon as possible. We have something important to discuss," Hao Ren said to Zhao Hongyu.
He circulated the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll and filled his body with fire-elemental nature essence, instantly drying the wet robe.
