Shaoyun Bai nodded. "Senior apprentice-brother Zuo, please enlighten me."
"You and I fought against each other more than ten years ago. At that time, we also happened to go through a banquet. But at that time, you and I were still too weak. This time is the perfect stage for us to perform. Sword Qi Song."
Zuo Li circulated his aura and formed a hand seal. His energy began to erupt. Unexpectedly, he was also at the ninth level of the Dharma Opening Realm. A large amount of sword qi flew out of his palm.
This was very similar to the Sword Heart Finger.
"Song in the Sky!"
His body was like a bow, and all his aura was concentrated in his hands. The dozens of sword qi overlapped, forming a shocking sword light. It exploded out under Zuo Li's control.
The sword qi overlapped, and it was as if all the sword qi had a life of their own. Each sword let out a deafening hum. They were so fast that it seemed they were going to eat Shaoyun Bai in one move.
"Cloud Lion Roar!"
This time, Shaoyun Bai didn't use his signature Heavenly Heart Finger. Instead, he used a magical art that all Secret Dao Realm disciples in Tianmen Province could use.
Cloud Lion Roar
However, the Cloud Lion Roar he unleashed took the form of a 10-meter-long lion. With Shaoyun Bai's full strength, the lion leaped forward and bit down on the sword beam with its sharp fangs.
Clang!
The sword light was filled with a domineering aura, but it was crushed by the lion. The sword qi scattered, and the lion leaped in front of Zuo Li.
"Junior apprentice-brother, thank you for letting me win."
Zuo Li decisively cupped his fists and admitted defeat.
At the same level, he still wasn't Shaoyun Bai's match. He returned to his seat on the right.
Stomp!
An expert from Tianmen Province flew out from the main stage and continued to challenge Shaoyun Bai.
But he still couldn't take a single move from Shaoyun Bai. The other experts were all at the same level as Chi Xinshuai and Qiu Lengji. None of them were Shaoyun Bai's match.
"Senior apprentice-brother!"
In just a short while, several people had been defeated by Shaoyun Bai's sword. Just as more experts were about to give it a try, a woman descended from the heavens.
Shaoyun Bai was surprised. He looked at the woman and said, "Lu Lan, junior apprentice-sister Lu."
6 Lan
It was as though the banquet had arrived. Everyone was staring at and discussing Lu Lan. Most of them were talking about her beauty, but there were also people discussing her background and strength.
All in all, she had only been in Tianmen Province for six years. Had she reached the ninth tier of the Dharma Cave State in less than ten years?
It was already a miracle that she was able to reach level 9 of the Secret Path Realm. Could it be that this woman had defied the heavens?
It was especially so for the envoys from the Zhao Kingdom. Both Lord Pang and Shen Huangqi seemed to be paying attention to Lu Lan. Among the higher-ups of Tianmen Province, the leader of the Jade Heron tribe and the Heaven Gate's Saint Emperor seemed to be having a private conversation.
"Lu Ming's smug look!"
Su Fang came back to his senses. He might be very surprised, but he was looking forward to seeing Lu Lan's true strength. Everyone had their own fortuitous encounters. Lu Lan had been hailed as the no.1 prodigy since she was young and was a proud daughter of heaven. She must have some outstanding points, and the Lu Clan would be a formidable enemy of the Su Family in the future. He wanted to see what kind of hidden depths this proud daughter of heaven had.
He had also seen Lu Ming standing near the higher-ups and standing out like a crane among chickens. It seemed like Lu Ming had become more presentable after following Lu Lan.
It was unknown where Lu Lan got her confidence from, but she dared to exchange moves with Shaoyun Bai. "Senior Brother, Junior Sister is courteous. Senior Brother doesn't have to show mercy to Junior Sister!"
"Junior Sister, be careful!"
Both of them were from the same dao hall. Shaoyun Bai wasn't the only one who was surprised. The rest of the people were also puzzled. During the banquet, it was rare for geniuses from the same dao hall to compete.
Shaoyun Bai didn't hold back. He was able to come here because he wanted to be noticed by the envoys from the Zhao Kingdom and the Heaven Gate's Saint Emperor to see his talent.
Hence, he couldn't give up this great opportunity just because of a woman.
Right now, he didn't even release his aura presence. He congealed an ordinary Cloud Lion's Roar and pounced towards Lu Lan.
Lu Lan looked weak and frail, and it was hard for her skinny body to burst out with power. However, everyone was wrong. She might not have formed any seals, but when she waved her hand, cold air appeared and turned into chains.
Boom!
The cold air chains lashed onto the tyrannical Cloud Lion's Roar, and the Cloud Lion's Roar was immediately frozen. The cold ice chains returned to Lu Lan's surroundings.
"This is …"
She didn't form any seals and didn't release any aura presence. Shaoyun Bai was shocked. "This Junior Sister, could you have grasped a divine ability?"
The chains around Lu Lan turned into formless cold air again. "That's right. I was fortunate enough to obtain a divine ability inheritance. I directly cultivated the divine ability art and didn't cultivate any sorcery!"
Divine Ability
Once she said this, it was like a rolling thunder. Not only was Shaoyun Bai shocked, but all the disciples and experts from Tianmen Province were also shocked!
Even the leaders and higher-ups of the Jade Heron Division didn't expect Lu Lan to have grasped a divine ability.
Amaze the world with a single brilliant feat
The envoys from the Zhao Kingdom were also having a discussion. From their expressions, it could be seen that they didn't believe Lu Lan had grasped a divine ability.
Sorcery required the formation of seals, and it mainly came from one's own spirit power.
Divine Abilities were different. Part of it came from sorcery, and part of it came from the unfathomable nature. What was unfathomable? Heaven Fire, Heaven Thunder, and any power of nature were unfathomable.
Cultivators cultivated to grasp divine abilities and comprehend the power of nature.
Right now, everyone had the same question in their minds. How was Lu Lan able to grasp a divine ability?
"Lu Lan, it's no wonder you came looking for me personally to take revenge for Lu Fung. So you have such methods!" At this moment, Su Fang finally realized how powerful Lu Lan was.
Right now, Lu Lan was like the bright moon in the night sky. Everyone only had her in their eyes.
"Junior Sister is indeed a rare genius in our Jade Heron Training Ground. Just based on the fact that Junior Sister has grasped a divine ability, Senior Brother will admit defeat!"
Who knew that Shaoyun Bai would leave without a fight?
Even if he couldn't grasp a divine ability with his strength, he could still use his advantage in cultivation to defeat Lu Lan. However, he didn't do so.
He could see Lu Lan's potential, and it was better for him not to have any conflicts with her.
"This girl is not bad. Greetings!"
Suddenly, there was a commotion from one of the seats. A muscular man in armor flew out and landed on the ground, emitting an aura of 500 kilograms.
There were still some people who weren't resigned and wanted to take advantage of Lu Lan's short cultivation time to steal her limelight and obtain the reward from the Zhao Kingdom's envoy.
"Watch my Mighty Tyrant Palm Wind!"
The muscular man's aura burst out, and he was actually an expert at the eighth level of the Dharma Hole Realm. As he exerted his strength, cracking sounds could be heard from his bones to his joints.
He then sprinted straight for Lu Lan. When his right hand struck out with a large amount of force, it turned into an astonishing palm shadow. With the momentum of Mount Tai, he wanted to defeat Lu Lan.
"Go!"
Lu Lan had just released her aura and sent out waves of force. It turned out that she was at the sixth level of the Dharma Hole Realm.
The formless cold air was like a long river. With a point of Lu Lan's finger, it swept towards the incoming palm shadow. That palm shadow was immediately sealed in ice and was soon surrounded by the cold air. Ka Ka Ka! A cold ice sword qi condensed and instantly pierced through a hole in the palm shadow.
Bang! The cold ice sword qi pierced the muscular man's armor. The muscular man didn't know what happened, but his entire body was covered in a layer of cold air. He lost his balance and was sent flying by the cold air.
"You are not a match for me!"
An even more divine ability appeared. Lu Lan actually didn't use any artifacts or magic arts. She simply floated in the air along with the cold air and looked down at the muscular man who was struggling on the ground. She didn't have any intention to make a move.
"Alright, watch the reward!"
The fourth envoy from the Zhao Nation shouted loudly.
Immediately, an expert flew out and handed an empty bag to Lu Lan in front of everyone while shouting in all directions.
Lu Lan bowed to the envoy from the Zhao Nation and kept the empty bag. She then looked around and asked, "Is there anyone else who wants to give it a try?"
Who would dare to go up?
An expert at the eighth level of the Dharma Hole Realm was easily defeated by her divine ability. Even an expert at the ninth level might not be able to defeat Lu Lan.
Furthermore, anyone with discerning eyes could see that she had gained the favor of the envoy from the Zhao Nation.
Who would dare to go up and take her punishment?
"The opportunity is here!"
There might be people who wanted to go up and fight with Lu Lan, but they didn't have the guts to do so. However, no one expected that Su Fang would actually walk out silently.
Many people thought that Su Fang was going to do something and didn't pay much attention at first. However, when he flew towards Lu Lan from the rostrum, everyone knew of his motive.
"Junior Brother Su is going!"
You Junke, Lian Zhan, and the others were confused.
Qiu Lengji, who was sitting behind Yang Zhongjue, immediately knitted her brows. She didn't expect Su Fang to go up at this moment. It was obvious that he wanted to challenge Lu Lan. Was he a match for him?
Tu Yueye looked at Yang Zhongjue, but Yang Zhongjue spoke first, "Junior Brother, isn't this Su Fang from our dojo?"
Tu Yueye said, "It is him. Previously, he had hidden himself and performed meritorious deeds twice. The leader knew about it, but we didn't expect him to challenge Lu Lan!"
"Then let's see how this person performs. Our dojo has been lacking talents for the past few years!" Yang Zhongjue nodded and said.
"However, with his Secret Dao Realm cultivation, he is naturally not a match for Lu Lan!"
Tu Yueye had some doubts.
"Su Fang, you are a reckless fellow. I hope that Junior Sister won't be polite and will chop him into pieces. Anyway, he is courting death!"
On the other side, among the experts from the Jade Heron Dojo, Lu Ming's eyes flickered with a sinister and complacent gaze. He was waiting for Su Fang to be taught a lesson by Lu Lan. It seemed like he still remembered how Su Fang stole his spotlight during the Summit Tournament.
He could let Lu Lan take his revenge today.
In the plaza, when Lu Lan saw Su Fang flying over, the killing intent in his heart was ignited. "Junior Brother Su, I will not be polite!"
After Su Fang landed, he looked indifferently and said, "Lu Lan, I will not be polite either!"
"Hmph, you are courting death!"
When enemies met, their eyes would turn red. Lu Lan burst out with his sixth-level aura and sent a cold light at Su Fang.
Su Fang also burst out with his aura and displayed his ninth-level Secret Dao Realm cultivation in front of everyone.
"I didn't expect Su Fang to step into the ninth-level Secret Dao Realm from the first level within a year!"
Although it was nothing compared to Lu Lan, Tu Yueye, Qiu Lengji, and Chi Xinshuai were all in disbelief at Su Fang's cultivation.
Moreover, from what they knew, Su Fang was only at the first level of the Secret Dao Realm. Normally, he would only be at the second level of the Secret Dao Realm. No matter how much of a genius he was, he would only be at the third level.
However, he actually reached the ninth-level Secret Dao Realm in a year.
Even Yang Zhongjue, Hou Ping, and the other upper echelons were attracted by Su Fang. Lu Lan might be the favored daughter of the emperor, but Su Fang wasn't any different.
Both of them were geniuses among geniuses.
Lu Lan was also very surprised. "So you are so incredible to be able to step into the ninth-level Secret Dao Realm in a few years. Back then, you were a cripple. However, are you able to challenge me? You are gravely mistaken!"
"Knot!"
Su Fang executed several seals and looked at the cold light that was approaching. Some demonic aura actually surged out from his skin, making Su Fang look like a demonic dao monster in the plaza.
"As expected!"
Luo Muxue smiled with surprise.
"Demonic dao!"
Countless people trembled and cried out in alarm.
Even Lu Lan was so shocked that she took a step back. She might be powerful, but she was naturally afraid of demonic aura.
On the rostrum, Yang Zhongjue couldn't help but shake his head. "This child is actually able to control demonic aura!"
