"A fight also broke out over there!"
"Ah? That is the Young Master of the Gao family, Gao Quan. He is also a formidable character. In the rumors, he has cultivated the High Vault Formless Sword Qi to the pinnacle, able to switch mutually between having form and being formless. The Great Luo Laws filling his whole body exceed more than two million streaks."
"Yeah, just now when I saw him fight against people, every time it was a single streak of sword qi beating the enemy to death. Why is it now that his sword qi was instead shattered in a single strike by someone, and he was beaten into sinking into the ground? Defeated in one move? The newcomers now are truly each more ferocious than the last."
As a commotion broke out here, it immediately attracted a large batch of Yuhua Sect Direct Disciples to come and watch.
Upon seeing that the Young Master of the "Gao family" had his sword qi shattered by Fang Han with one finger, and then directly pressed into the ground under a dragon claw, the crowd was all incredibly shocked.
The nine young masters who entered this time were each and every one genius figures who looked down upon the world and were insufferably arrogant. Among them, exclusively "Feng Yuan" was a bit weaker. This was the shared feeling of many Yuhua Sect disciples, but no one had expected that this "Feng Yuan" would actually defeat the Gao family young master within a single move, displaying deeply hidden strength.
"What is going on?"
The commotion caused by Fang Han and the "Gao family young master" Gao Quan successively alarmed "Lin Feiyu" and "Gu Xun," who were just about to duel, and even alarmed experts like "Xiao Shaoyun" and "Xue Lie."
"Hmm?"
"The strength this Feng Yuan just displayed?"
"This one finger, one dragon claw, is vastly different from what he displayed earlier! Could it be that when he battled Zhang Zhenghui, he hid his strength?"
"Deeply hidden without revealing it?"
Each person had their own thoughts as their gazes shot sharply over, seemingly attempting to see through Fang Han's true cultivation.
"You all fight to the death here, do not implicate me. I entered the Yuhua Sect wanting to quietly cultivate, not coming to be overly competitive and to fight fiercely." Fang Han defeated the Gao family young master Gao Quan with a single strike, his expression flat and indifferent, wooden and rigid. He was about to leave.
"Who would have thought you are also an expert? Actually having hidden for so long. If you are an expert, then stand out and show a hand, let me receive a pointer or two." The overbearingly arrogant, insufferably haughty Hong family young master Hong Zhou, who had just blasted the older disciple flying with one punch causing him to wildly spew fresh blood, saw Fang Han make his move, and a light of excitement surged in his eyes, "Leaving like this is truly meaningless. Take a move of mine, Torrent of the Troubled Times!"
Unexpectedly, he acted right upon saying so, without the slightest bit of scruples.
Hong Zhou directly struck out the heaven-shaking absolute killing move, "Torrent of the Troubled Times."
Rumble!
Within the void, a torrent appeared, and space cracked everywhere. That torrent presented an crimson red color, resembling a mudslide from a mountain flash flood. In the sky, the aura of a troubled time manifested, filled everywhere with an aura of chaos, slaughter, annihilation, and decay.
The firmament cracked, and the great sun lost its light.
The aura of this "Torrent of the Troubled Times" swept all the people into it.
The Hong family young master Hong Zhou stood in the center of the torrent, towering like a mountain atop the tide, like a trendsetter of an era. Turning the palm produced clouds, flipping it produced rain. Within that Torrent of the Troubled Times, countless phantoms of sages manifested, shouting loudly, emitting voices of "How grand! How spectacular! How beautiful!"
"This madman! He actually cultivated this move Torrent of the Troubled Times; does he want to sweep everyone into it?"
Upon seeing this scene, even Xiao Shaoyun, Xue Lie, Lin Feiyu, Shi Feng, Gu Xun, and the other several young masters were greatly shocked. Cursing profusely, they retreated at once, simultaneously circulating their magical power respectively to protect themselves, lest they be swept into the center of the Torrent of the Troubled Times.
This move made everyone keep a respectful distance, showing its unparalleled ferocity and world-dominating dominance.
"For Hong Zhou to be so domineering and arrogant, he indeed has the qualifications. This move Torrent of the Troubled Times, in the rumors, is the absolute learning of an ancient Heavenly Lord that flowed down to the Hong family. The Hong family had geniuses emerging across many generations for ages and none could successfully cultivate it, yet upon reaching his hands, he instead had a fortuitous encounter and successfully cultivated it."
"So formidable! With a single move struck out, nations are heavily stacked, and the intent of the troubled times covers everlasting antiquity. As the torrent impacts, any person will suffer a catastrophic disaster."
"Furthermore, within the rumors. When this move Torrent of the Troubled Times is exerted to its limit, it can display eight times combat power; it is simply horrifying and terrifying, scaring immortals to death alive."
"Look at him, he has manifested fully three shadows; it is the Supreme Hegemon Divine Dao, three times combat power. How terrifying. Goodness knows how much Primordial Qi this move will consume."
"Hmph, I am not unaware that the Primordial Qi upon him is dense. That Hong family of Hongzhou plundered by trickery and force, charging and seizing four or five First-Tier Spirit Veins over the past several millennia. As for the rest, the Second-Tier and Third-Tier Spirit Veins are innumerable. Their wealth is abundant, and they are not lacking in Primordial Qi."
"By exerting three times combat power, that Feng Yuan will definitely be unable to hold on. Even if he is a remarkable talent, he surely lacks Primordial Pills. Even if he holds a secret method to display several times combat power, it has no effect."
The crowd rapidly exchanged divine senses, once again flying somewhat further away. Because the power of that "Torrent of the Troubled Times" grew greater and greater. In the end, it was equivalent to a desolate dragon undying for billions of ages, devouring the great sun of the Heavenly Realm.
Everyone knew that with such immense power, under this single strike, that Feng Yuan definitely could not survive.
"Hmph! What's so amazing about the Torrent of the Troubled Times; watch my Ultimate Judgment!"
Suddenly, from within that torrent, Fang Han advanced against the current. An extra spear abruptly appeared in his hand. This spear merged with a strand of dark and mysterious judgment intent from the sky, condensing into a shape. Countless intents of judgment appeared within the spear. Endless Great Immortal Techniques revolved around the body of the spear. The lightning punishments of the immemorial times, and the lightning techniques of the void, were all entwined upon the body of the spear.
Fang Han struck a blow holding the spear, transforming into the incarnation of judgment, causing a shock mid-air. That single spear thrust pierced through heaven and earth, directly slicing apart the "Torrent of the Troubled Times."
Bang bang!
Within the Torrent of the Troubled Times, the shadows manifested by Hong Zhou's additional three times combat power were all pierced and killed into explosions by the spear body.
"Amidst troubled times, the living creatures are in chaos; only judgment can end the troubled times!" Between Fang Han's brows, Great Luo Laws condensed, intricately interweaving over three million streaks. Moreover, he displayed absolute mastery and control ability over the Great Luo Laws.
Holding the phantom of the Spear of Judgment, like a deity presiding over judgment, he thrust forward once again.
"Om!"
That Hong Zhou was provocatively flicked flying by him with a single spear thrust on the spot. Sending him collapsing far across the sky, he crashed into a gigantic Heavenly Crystal Stone pillar in the Yuhua Sect's square, shattering the pillar to the point of cracking, and then it collapsed with a rumble.
"A total piece of trash. What Hong family young master, what Torrent of the Troubled Times; unable to withstand a single blow, and you still dare to make me stay? I am keeping a low profile, wanting to practice quietly and peacefully, but that does not mean I lack strength."
With a clap of his two hands, Fang Han dispersed the phantom of that Spear of Judgment, transforming it into countless source qi and taking the Great Luo Laws into his body.
"Spear of Judgment? That is the phantom of a King-grade Immortal Artifact, the Spear of Judgment? That move he used just now?"
"Hong Zhou displayed three times combat power and still suffered a miserable defeat?"
"Just how strong exactly is this person? I originally thought his strength was the weakest, yet who would have expected he is the most tyrannical one?"
Many people practically couldn't believe their own vision. Hong Zhou genuinely got defeated by "Feng Yuan"!
Especially people like "Xue Lie," "Xiao Shaoyun," "Shi Feng," and "Gu Xun," their bodies trembled slightly. It was unknown whether it was excitement or some other emotion.
"Xue Lie, it seems your vision is not good enough. This Feng Yuan's strength is tyrannical to the extreme. It is not that he cannot utilize the power inside his body; rather, he deliberately presented an appearance of clumsiness." After a long while, Xiao Shaoyun suddenly laughed loudly and said to Xue Lie.
"Fine, I admit my judgment was mistaken." Xue Lie nodded: "Strong, very strong! This Feng Yuan is indeed very strong. He is able to skillfully utilize various moves, and has reached the pinnacle millimeter level regarding the Great Luo Laws within his body. Moreover, he is skilled at concealing himself; he is an immense competitor for our advancement to the seed state in the future."
"I also admit he poses a significant threat to us."
Gu Xun said silently.
Seeing Fang Han's tyranny, he felt his mind losing the desire for minor struggles; he needed to cultivate even more painstakingly to defeat this person.
"Truly an eye-opener." The shock within Lin Feiyu's heart was already unaddable. The ten newcomers who entered this time were each more ferocious than the last and were deeply hidden without revealing themselves, making him feel a multiplied amount of pressure: "By defeating Hong Zhou, this Feng Yuan has become a hot candidate to compete for the seed disciple position in one fell swoop. As long as one advances to a Peerless Golden Immortal, one can be sent into the highest organization of our Yuhua Sect in the Heavenly Court, to compete alongside the many seed disciples of the past for the candidate of the Holy Son! That status truly belongs to the upper echelons of our Yuhua Sect, an existence that can only make us look up."
In everyone's heart, there existed the hope to climb upwards. The rule of the Yuhua Sect was to first select geniuses among the many Direct Disciples, called "seeds," and then the many "seeds" would enter the high-level organization together for further selection and nurturing. The outstanding ones among them would be the "Holy Sons."
Lin Feiyu originally felt he possessed great hope, but now the strength displayed by Fang Han shocked his heart.
Practically all the geniuses felt a dense threat, subconsciously treating that Fang Han as their own enemy.
Fang Han also sensed these dense hostility, but he knew that within the Yuhua Sect, the more fierce and domineering one acted and the more strength one displayed, the more one would feel the respect of the upper echelons.
"There is no one coming to obstruct me anymore, right." Fang Han looked at the scene all around, then looked at the two great young masters Hong Zhou and Gao Quan, who had been launched flying and pressed into the ground by him respectively. Giving a light smile, he turned around and left, heading toward the Jiangshan Courtyard.
Sure enough, no one obstructed him anymore.
The fingers of Xue Lie and Xiao Shaoyun twitched simultaneously. It appeared they wanted to unleash Great Immortal Techniques to stop him, but until Fang Han's back disappeared, they still did not unleash them.
Because both of them felt they lacked absolute certainty in defeating Fang Han.
"Very good, extremely good. Having a powerful opponent from now on makes me exceptionally excited." Xue Lie said coldly, "The current struggles are indeed nothing to speak of. Seeing who advances into a Peerless Golden Immortal first is the true sign of the strong. Without reaching Golden Immortal, a genius remains merely a concept; even a great figure is ultimately a small figure."
"Then let us discern, who will advance to a Peerless Golden Immortal first."
Xiao Shaoyun gave a long whistle, soaring up into the sky.
"Hmph! In an era where experts emerge in large numbers, one must occupy a place!" Gu Xun also lost interest in fighting with others and rose straight from the ground.
The numerous genius young master experts each left one by one.
