Chapter 442: Chapter 280: Try Hard_1
He called himself the junior and lowered his stance.
This caused Shen Chongrong and the other Venerables of the Righteous Path behind him to frown deeply.
In the world, among the Peak of Divine Martial, Overlord Gate Master Li Hengjiang was absolutely one of the top figures. He had competed against Leng Aotian, the number one on the Divine Martial List and Heavenly Demon God Monarch, in a fierce battle that lasted three days and nights, ultimately losing by a slight margin.
Even the second and third on the Divine Martial List, the Divine Martial Alliance Leader Ren Weidao and the Freewheeling Peak Master Ning Wuwo, only narrowly outwitted him, which shows the strength of this Overlord Gate Master.
Not only was he extremely powerful in combat, he also acted imperiously and defiantly. Although he wasn’t the only one who was supreme, he looked down upon the world, and even someone as powerful as Leng Aotian could only narrowly defeat him, never able to make him bow his head in fear.
Back in the year when nine cycles of the Jiazi Storm Wars took place, although Leng Aotian won nine battles, making him lose nine times, he never succeeded in dampening his fighting spirit. On the contrary, after each defeat, he was eager to battle again. Leng Aotian regarded him as his greatest opponent, no lesser than the Divine Martial Alliance Leader Ren Weidao.
This revealed the temper of this Overlord Gate Master.
Could such a person really lower his stance and refer to himself as a junior?
While everyone was secretly shocked, upon further thought, it seemed reasonable.
Although the Overlord was powerful, he was still only at the Peak of Divine Martial and hadn’t crossed the boundary.
In contrast, that man had the power to break the Eternal Evergreen Great Array.
As one of the top defensive arrays in the world, the strength of the Eternal Evergreen Great Array goes without saying. Even a strong faction like the Overlord Gate wouldn’t be able to break it unless they used multiple copies of the War God’s Atlas.
In fact, in the nearly ten thousand years of Evergreen Palace’s history, the Eternal Evergreen Great Array had seldom been breached, let alone challenged, which speaks to the array’s strength.
Now, not only had that man broken the array, but he had also turned the tables, taking control of Evergreen Palace, and modified the Eternal Evergreen Great Array, enhancing its power and making it more ominous.
In such circumstances, a strong attack would be unwise.
But not attacking wouldn’t be justifiable either.
Left with no better option, they could only find a middle ground by verbally provoking him to test the waters.
This showed the wisdom of the Overlord Gate Master. Although he usually acted imperiously, he wasn’t rash. Instead, he was strategic, with both intelligence and bravery—only, on ordinary days, few could make him behave this way.
However… would this probing yield any result?
The array was peculiar, almost indistinguishable from the original Eternal Evergreen Great Array yet mysteriously unpredictable. Not to mention these ordinary Venerables, even a person like Li Hengjiang wouldn’t dare to venture deep into it carelessly.
If the other party stubbornly held onto the formation and refused to come out, wouldn’t Li Hengjiang’s efforts be in vain?
Not necessarily, for sometimes, having no result is itself a result.
The crowd furrowed their brows in anticipation, waiting for the other party’s response.
Only when a figure emerged from within the Azure Dragon city center, where the Azure Dragon commanded the formation and countless trees reached for the heavens, tightly arrayed with no gaps, did a man in green clothing appear amidst a movement of ten thousand rays of green light.
It was…
Li Hengjiang’s gaze sharpened as he clasped his hands and said, “I have seen the Martial Ancestor!”
Xu Yang stood with his hands behind his back, hovering in the void, but he did not speak, making the atmosphere even more tense.
Li Hengjiang’s eyes shifted, and the crowd behind him also grew restless, especially Shen Chongrong of Evergreen Palace. If not for his lingering rationality, knowing that his opponent was extraordinary and not to be trifled with, he probably would have already rushed forward to fight to the death with this thief who seized his estate.
In the end, Li Hengjiang chose not to act but spoke in a conciliatory manner, “We already know the full details and cause of this incident. The trouble started with Iron Heart Fortress, with the Pavilion of Heavenly Mechanism and the Demon Sect fanning the flames. The alliances of the Righteous Path had no intention of colluding with them. At this point, it is all a misunderstanding. If the Martial Ancestor is willing, then I would like to mediate between both sides, turning hostility into peace…”
“This…”
Li Hengjiang’s words caught everyone off guard, and Shen Chongrong and Shi Huxiong were both shocked and furious.
With things having come to this point, Li Hengjiang actually wanted to negotiate a peace?
What about our Dragon and Tiger Platform, the foundation of our Evergreen Palace?
The two were furious but were restrained by several Venerables around them, unable to lash out for the moment.
“Brother Shen, Brother Shi, calm down!”
“Gate Master Li is probing!”
“This man’s time has come, and even someone as strong as Gate Master Li would likely find it difficult to capture him. Rather than letting him entangle with our Righteous Path and allowing the evil sects to benefit from it, it is better to direct the disaster toward the Demon Sect!”
“In two hundred years, when the Temple of War God opens, we will settle our score then!”
While persuading Shen Chongrong and Shi Huxiong, everyone else was also secretly weighing their options.
It had to be admitted that Li Hengjiang, the Overlord Gate Master, was indeed insightful and brave.
By this point, that man’s momentum was already established. Even if they from the Righteous Path were to go all out and manage to break through this Azure Dragon Formation, it would be very difficult to capture him. They would only form a deadly enmity and deplete their Yuan Qi, allowing the Demon Sect to benefit.
Under such circumstances, it would be better to deflect the disaster eastward in a “survival of the fittest” move.
Everyone was calculating in their minds, but unexpectedly…
Xu Yang remained silent and then raised his hand to strike.
The Jitu Qilin Seal! fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
The Thunder Fire Rebellion Seal!
The robust power of thick earth and the fierce might of thunder fire.
His first move was an ultimate technique!
“Hmm!?”
Li Hengjiang’s pupils constricted, and he burst forth in the next moment, shattering the void with one step and shaking heaven and earth with a punch.
“Overlord Non-Urgent Body!”
A punch thundered out, shaking the heavens and earth, and a corresponding phantom formed, towering and imperious, as if it were a Demon God.
How could one describe such overwhelming force?
It was indeed the Fighting War Saint Body, the Divine Martial True Skill—Overlord Non-Urgent Body!
The ultimate force, earth-shattering, striking directly at the Thunder and Fire Ground Seal and the Qilin Jade Seal.
“Boom!”
An earth-shaking strike, ultimate techniques colliding, the Thunder and Fire Ground Seal exploding, the image of the Qilin disintegrating, only the Demon God remained undefeated, still towering and imposing. His utmost strength compressed the void, so much so that even those outside the field felt suffocated.
