The reason was simple.
Once he took out the token, it would definitely cause a sensation in the entire cultivation world of the Eastern Continent. Even the Ninth Rank Sects would have to be courteous to the Myriad Pill Pavilion from now on. What did this mean?
It meant that the Myriad Pill Pavilion would be extremely popular. With a period of accumulation and development, they would definitely be able to reach the height of a Ninth Rank Sect, or even surpass it!
But the female Immortal Supremacy who suddenly appeared took away his token …
How was he going to explain this to the nameless old man? He didn't know what status the nameless old man had in the Wuji Immortal Palace, but to be able to give out the Immortal Supremacy token, it proved that he was definitely not simple. At least not lower than the Immortal Supremacy in front of him. But he didn't dare to ask for it.
Fortunately, the Immortal Supremacy didn't intend to confiscate it, which made him relieved.
…
"Let the competition continue!" The female Immortal Supremacy slowly floated to the main seat in the middle of the rostrum. After sitting down cross-legged, she said faintly, "Strength is everything. This Immortal will not be partial to anyone, nor will I bury anyone. There are indeed a few good geniuses in this Inter-Sect Competition. Although there is still a big gap between you and the other regions, it is very rare for you to be able to grow to such a level in the Eastern Continent. Work hard! "
…
"Phew …"
Xia Youyou patted her full and bulging chest. She, who was nervous and frightened to the extreme, finally breathed a long sigh of relief at this moment.
Helian Wuzi and Tantai Lian were the same.
The disciples of the Star-Picking Sect and the Myriad Pill Pavilion also walked out from the state of near despair, suffocation, and anger. They looked at each other, and everyone's face revealed a touch of joy after being reborn. Faintly, they clearly felt that their souls and states of mind seemed to have a trace of enlightenment, and suddenly became clear.
…
"Next!"
The referee's magnificent voice suddenly rang out.
Chen Hao took a deep breath, and his angular face flickered with a wisp of unprecedented coldness. No one knew what had happened in Chen Hao's body just now. No one knew that Chen Hao, who had no confidence when he met Wu Ruochen earlier, now had absolute confidence. Pressure. The casual attack of the Heavenly Sword Sect's sectmaster had exerted enormous pressure on him. Boundless anger and anger had caused him to sink into madness. The seven-colored Nascent Soul, blood, meridians, muscles, shackles, and even every cell in his dantian, as well as his essence, energy, spirit, and soul, all of them had instantly fallen into a frenzy. A frenzy that seemed to want to pierce through heaven and earth was operating madly. Unfortunately, under the restriction of the Heavenly Sword Sect Master's peerless divine ability, he was unable to unleash even the slightest bit of it …
However, it was precisely because of this irresistible pressure that all the power in Chen Hao's body surged and burned. His body had unknowingly become his cauldron, causing all the energy in his body to explode. This feeling was similar to when he had faced the powerful Xiao Jihan for the first time in the Xiao family. Chen Hao had undergone a metamorphosis in just a few seconds.
There was no change in his realm.
…
Boom!
Wu Ruochen also took a deep breath and flew violently toward the arena. He was extremely frustrated, and the degree of frustration was not inferior to Chen Hao's at all. Originally, when he saw that Chen Hao had defeated Meng Lang, his battle intent had already soared to the peak. That was exactly the result he wanted. He wanted to use his absolute power to viciously crush Chen Hao. He wanted everyone to understand that he, Wu Ruochen, was not inferior to anyone. So what if he was the only one left in the Heavenly Sword Sect?
He was the true number one genius of the Heavenly Sword Sect. He was the one who could ultimately turn the tide!
At that time, it could be said that this brother's essence, energy, and battle intent had all reached the peak. He was like a badass with the surname Gao and the name Chao. However, his idiotic sectmaster had suddenly put on a show, which directly caused this brother to fall into a daze … It would have been fine if that show had succeeded. However, not only had it failed, but he had also been smashed on the head by the female Celestial Supremacy. Although he had not been scared to the point of shitting his pants, his entire body was smelly …
This brother had already been scared silly. How could he still have any battle intent left?
Fortunately, the female Celestial Supremacy's words before the start of the competition had reignited his battle intent! Strength was everything. As long as he was strong, why would he need to consider the Heavenly Sword Sect? Only when he was strong, would he be truly strong!
…
The aura of the peak of the mid-stage of the Embodiment Realm instantly filled the entire arena. The terrifying pressure and soaring battle intent caused everyone in the arena to once again lock their eyes on the arena where Chen Hao and Wu Ruochen were.
Without a doubt, this battle would be the most intense battle since the beginning. Moreover, it would definitely be a battle between the top twenty individuals in advance!
It seemed that Chen Hao, who had already been chosen by the Celestial Supremacy, could defeat the super genius Wu Ruochen, who was more than a level higher than him?
The buzzing sounds of discussion instantly increased in intensity and quickly spread to every corner of the Martial Arts Practice Field.
This year's Inter-Sect Competition's top twenty individuals were already very clear. The sixth group was Chen Hao and Wu Ruochen. No one had expected that Chen Hao would be able to make it to this stage. After all, Chen Hao's strength lay in his potential, not his strength. Originally, everyone thought that the two people in the sixth group would be Wu Ruochen and Meng Lang.
But now, Chen Hao had already created a miracle that was beyond everyone's imagination. He had won consecutively and easily defeated Meng Liang, who was in the early-stage of the Embodiment Realm, in his "exhausted" state. Now, he was facing Wu Ruochen, who had the qualifications to become a Young Master and was recognized by everyone as being in the top four.
Could Chen Hao, who was only at the peak of the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, continue to create miracles?
…
On the arena, Chen Hao was as still as a mountain. In the face of Wu Ruochen's terrifying pressure and fighting spirit, his chiseled face did not change in the slightest, except for the incomparably fierce look in his eyes.
Clang! Clang!
Two clear sounds of unsheathing rang out almost at the same time.
"Ah?"
But it was also at this moment that the entire arena suddenly burst into waves of astonishment. Even Chu Qingtian, Xia Youyou, and Gu Xing revealed a trace of astonishment. Their expressions were rather strange.
"Wu Ruochen actually uses a saber? This … is too unexpected? "
No one would have thought that Wu Ruochen, who had always used a sword, would turn into a saber when facing Chen Hao. The two-meter-long silver saber was slightly blue and emitted a cold and terrifying aura. Mysterious and exquisite runes covered the hilt and body of the saber. The long groove that ran through half of the saber was actually dark red, like solidified blood. It emitted a strong murderous and bloody aura. In Wu Ruochen's hand, it made a buzzing sound, like a thirsty beast that could not wait to kill and drink blood …
Just from its appearance alone, everyone knew that this saber was definitely a top-grade spiritual weapon!
"You're very strong! Until you defeated Meng Lang, I had never taken you seriously. I admit that I underestimated you! You're only in the Nascent Soul Realm, yet you've forced me to reveal my hidden weapon. You should be proud of yourself! "
Boom!
Following Wu Ruochen's words, a cold, domineering, and majestic saber intent soared at a terrifying speed. The saber intent seemed to want to split the sky and cut the earth. Just the saber intent alone made people feel as if they were facing a saber blade …
"Saber intent in the Mastery of the Way of the Saber?"
Hiss! Hiss!
Gasps could be heard in the entire Martial Arts Practice Field. If Wu Ruochen's revelation that he was a saber wielder was shocking, then the saber intent realm that he displayed now shocked everyone. Even Chu Qingtian frowned slightly.
A saber wielder was as famous as a swordsman. A swordsman was extremely fierce and domineering. Anything that stood in his way would be cut in half, as if he was cutting vegetables!
Wu Ruochen's saber intent realm had reached the Mastery of the Way of the Saber. The Mastery of the Way of the Saber was between the Fourth Heaven and the Sixth Heaven. Wu Ruochen's saber intent was obviously in the Initial Stage of the Great Mastery, which was the peak of the Fourth Heaven. Even so, everyone was shocked. This was because no one had heard of anyone in the Incarnation Realm who could cultivate the Way of the Saber or the Way of the Sword to the Fourth Heaven, at least in the Eastern Mainland.
Chen Hao stared at Wu Ruochen, whose aura was still soaring, and his lips curled into a devilish smile. He said calmly, "Fourth Heaven of the Way of the Saber? Your aura is not bad … Unfortunately, you have no hope of suppressing me with this. It's just like how a shameless person wants to slander me. It's meaningless … "
Crash …
Everyone in the Martial Arts Practice Field who was paying attention to Chen Hao was shocked. Even Helian Wuzi and Tantai Lian, who were familiar with Chen Hao, were surprised. This … Did Chen Hao really say this?
In everyone's eyes, Chen Hao was a man of few words. He was only cold and had shocking strength. Yet, at this moment, he had suddenly spoken. Furthermore, his words were so sharp and arrogant, as if he was looking down on the formidable Sectmaster of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
No one expected Chen Hao to be like this.
There was a reason why Chen Hao was like this. First, he was clear about Wu Ruochen's purpose in directly exposing his identity as a saber wielder and saying these words. Whether it was an expert in the Way of the Saber or the Way of the Sword, they all paid attention to aura, especially during a peak confrontation. If one could suppress the opponent in terms of aura, it would undoubtedly be the beginning of victory. How could Chen Hao let him have his way? Even if Wu Ruochen couldn't suppress him, he couldn't let his confidence soar, right?
Besides, since he wanted to challenge the Sky Sword Sect, he had to do it thoroughly. Especially after seeing the ugly face of the Sky Sword Sect Master, Chen Hao felt even more disdain, anger, and even anger. Anyway, these two guys were trash that Chen Hao had a strong desire to kill. Chen Hao naturally wanted to vent his anger at this moment!
And just as Chen Hao said these words, something even more shocking happened …
An incomparably sharp sword intent rose from his body without any warning. In an instant, it filled the entire arena. What was extremely shocking was that the saber intent and sword intent emitted by the two people actually collided in the void. In an instant, the entire arena emitted a crackling sound!
"The peak of the Fourth Heavenly Level of Sword Intent?"
"This … Chen Hao is actually at the Fourth Heavenly Level of the Way of the Sword?"
Countless voices filled with disbelief instantly resounded throughout the arena. Only a few people who knew Chen Hao well knew that Chen Hao was a swordsman. However, no one knew that he was at the peak of the Fourth Heavenly Level of the Way of the Sword. This was the realm that he had broken through to after going through Heaven's Punishment. Even Leng Yihan, who knew Chen Hao's combat strength best, was a little surprised.
