Eternal Heavenly Emperor-Chapter 282 - 272: Without a Fight

Previously, Lin Zhining had been treated just like trash by the Barbaric Girl, flung violently to the ground, and now Wang Shuang was experiencing the same. Considering that the two were fellow disciples, it was hard not to suspect that Chu Hao did it on purpose.

The fact that Chu Hao possessed such strength did not surprise the people of Cang State; after all, this was the man who had defeated Yuan Tiangang!

Since Yuan Tiangang had fought Lin Zhining to a draw, it was no wonder that Chu Hao could easily overwhelm Lin Zhining’s junior brother.

It seemed that Chu Hao had gained quite a bit from his baptism in the Dragon Pool.

Lin Zhining and his companions felt both shock and anger, as they had always known only Yuan Tiangang as the number one prodigy of Cang State, having never heard of the name Chu Hao. Although they had just learned he had replaced Yuan Tiangang, accepting this reality in their hearts was not something that could happen in an instant.

How dare this guy humiliate the people of Yue State like this?

Especially after Lin Zhining had just been violently thrown to the ground, now this happens again? It’s infuriating!

Wang Shuang, as the one being beaten, naturally felt even more furious. He bellowed, "Damn it, you’re courting death!" He tried to grab Chu Hao’s wrist, exerting force to flip their positions.

But he was immediately horrified to discover that his opponent’s strength was unfathomably deep; in front of Chu Hao, his own force was like that of a weak little lamb, utterly insignificant.

Bang bang bang bang, he was thrown around wildly.

Even though he was protected by Star Force, being slammed into the ground felt like hitting a pile of cotton; it wasn’t painful. But being thrown around at such high speed, his head couldn’t take it, spinning around and making his stomach feel like it was turned upside down, about to vomit.

He roared, igniting his Starlight, which was an ultimate weapon. Below warriors, only someone of the same Starlight could withstand it.

Let’s see if you loosen your grip.

Sss, the Starlight jabbed at Chu Hao’s hand, but couldn’t pierce through. It was like encountering a real blade, actually bending upon impact.

What? What? What?

Lin Zhining and the others were dumbfounded. How was this possible? In the Martial Sect Realm, what kind of Cultivation Technique or Martial Technique could possibly withstand Starlight?

Absolutely none!

What was happening?

The people of Cang State revealed smiles. Chu Hao was indeed a true freak with his dual cultivation of body and Star Force. It seemed that after the baptism in the Dragon Pool, this guy’s physique had improved by a large margin, even unafraid of the Eight Meridians Martial Sect’s Starlight.

Of course, Chu Hao’s level of Body Cultivation and Star Force rank were about the same, which meant that inflicting any harm on his physique would require at least the power level of the Nineteen Meridians.

——Either a Ten Meridians martial master who has broken through to the Nine Meridians Martial Sect or a Nine Meridians martial master who has broken through to the Ten Meridians Martial Sect.

In Cang State, apart from Chu Hao, the only other was Yuan Tiangang, and Yue State probably had a few more, but definitely not someone ranked 19th like Wang Shuang.

Bang bang bang bang, Wang Shuang continued to be brutally slammed until he couldn’t take it anymore, and with a whoosh, he vomited. The smell was so foul it seemed as if he had eaten something terrible, making everyone cover their noses in disgust.

Chu Hao quickly flung his hand, tossing Wang Shuang towards Lin Zhining, saying, "He can’t take a hit at all."

Hearing this, Lin Zhining and the six others wanted to object but found themselves speechless. Indeed, although Wang Shuang seemed to be thrown violently, for a Martial Sect, the ground was as soft as cotton. How could such throwing cause any harm?

On Cang State’s side, everyone was smiling from ear to ear. After three consecutive defeats, the triumphant victories from the Barbaric Girl and Chu Hao were one-sided and utterly crushed their opposition, lifting everyone’s spirits and morale. How could they not be exhilarated?

Chu Hao had made a name for himself by defeating Yuan Tiangang, and through this battle, he had established himself as the standard-bearer for Cang State’s younger generation.

Heroes are shaped by the times.

Lin Zhining was struggling to save face. Although he had lost to the Barbaric Girl, it was because he had underestimated her, not realizing that she practiced Body Cultivation, not because he was genuinely less capable.

His ability to fight Yuan Tiangang to a draw was unquestionable proof of his immense strength.

"You’re worth taking on," said Lin Zhining, unwilling to stand by after his junior was humiliated.

"Be careful, this child has also practiced Body Technique," warned the guardian elder of Yue State suddenly.

What, another Body Cultivator?

Lin Zhining and the rest were shocked but quickly realized this explained why Chu Hao remained unharmed by Wang Shuang’s Starlight. If Chu Hao was a Body Cultivator, that made sense.

It was unbelievable that the traditionally weak Cang State would produce not one but two Body Cultivators, both of whom had achieved some level of success.

The Barbaric Girl, with not a trace of Star Force coursing through her body, was a pure Body Cultivator, with the potential to grow into a War Emperor-level powerhouse. She could regenerate just from drops of blood, and even the War Gods would have to be cautious around her.

And Chu Hao? His dual cultivation in body and Star Force, while not on par with the Barbaric Girl’s achievements in Body Cultivation, meant that at this stage, his Body Cultivation gave him greater strength and a more robust physique than other cultivators of the same realm. Who wouldn’t find such an opponent troublesome?

Lin Zhining had just suffered a huge loss at the hands of the Barbaric Girl, and now he faced another Body Cultivator, which made his expression awkward.

You’d expect to go a few hundred years without seeing a single Body Cultivator, yet suddenly two appear. Isn’t that frightening?

Lin Zhining dared not take anything lightly anymore. His eyes glowed fiercely, the wolf-shaped mark on his forehead became distinctly clear, as if a wolf would burst out through his skull and launch itself at Chu Hao.

Chu Hao, however, remained calm and composed, stepping toward Lin Zhining without a trace of anger.

Lin Zhining couldn’t help but retreat.

He had not fully grasped Chu Hao’s depth, and the previous barbaric girl’s dominance had frightened him, so how could he dare to allow Chu Hao a chance to get close? He naturally had no choice but to retreat to ensure he maintained a safe distance from Chu Hao.

One advancing, the other retreating, a full two minutes passed and they still had not clashed.

The scene was somewhat laughable, the previously arrogant one didn’t even dare to make a move, causing many in the audience to mock him openly.

"Lin Zhining, come on, fight! Weren’t you acting all tough?"

"Why keep retreating? Did you come here to exchange martial techniques, or to compare movement techniques?"

"Heh heh, but I must say, this kind of movement technique is really new to me."

"Hahahaha."

The crowd laughed. After three consecutive defeats, even Yuan Tiangang could only manage a draw against Lin Zhining, which had frustrated everyone. Now, seeing Lin Zhining stepping back at every move Chu Hao made, how could they not feel vindicated?

It was exhilarating.

Hearing the crowd’s ridicule, Lin Zhining was indignant but also realized that he had been overly cautious.

Even if he faced the barbaric girl again, he might not necessarily lose, so why be so wary of Chu Hao?

Just fight normally, what’s there to fear?

With that thought, Lin Zhining’s retreat halted, his fists raised, his formidable aura erupted suddenly.

This was the true manifestation of his strength.

Boom, the aura swept through, and those who had just been mocking him immediately shut their mouths, their faces turning pale. Such an oppressive aura was too shocking, even among martial masters, it was difficult to withstand.

He truly was a talent comparable to Yuan Tiangang.

Chu Hao still walked forward at a leisurely pace, seemingly not taking Lin Zhining seriously at all.

"Damn it!" cursed Lin Zhining inwardly. This guy actually dared to look down on him. Did he think he was one of those freaks ranked in the top five of the Earth Tiger List?

Even if he faced those freaks, in reality, it was only their realms that were higher than his. If the realms were suppressed for a fair fight, it wasn’t certain that he would lose.

Underestimating him would cost him dearly.

Lin Zhining yelled out and took the initiative to attack Chu Hao. As he punched out, more than a dozen Demon Wolves appeared, rushing at Chu Hao, trying to bite him.

Chu Hao merely glared, his blood energy soaring to the skies, and with a thunderous quake, the more than a dozen Demon Wolves shattered to pieces.

His body cultivation might still be slightly less than the barbaric girl’s, but it was only by a slight margin.

Lin Zhining’s face twitched involuntarily; body cultivation was indeed troublesome.

His Demon Wolf Annihilation Fist was very similar to Crescent Slash, both unleashing the star force inside the body to form a ranged attack. The Demon Wolf Fist’s compression level wasn’t as high as Crescent Slash, but correspondingly, he could summon many more wolves. So in terms of power, it actually wasn’t inferior.

But faced with a body cultivator... his attack was crushed directly by the other’s blood energy before it could even touch the body. How was he supposed to fight that?

Thinking back to ancient times, when heavenly materials and earthly treasures were hundreds to thousands of times more abundant than today, practically every martial artist practiced dual cultivation of star force and body. What a terrifying era that must have been?

He glared at Chu Hao resentfully. It seemed that without using his ultimate move, he wouldn’t be able to win.

"Zhining, don’t do it!" The custodian elder from Yue State suddenly spoke out. He was an elder of the Lin Family and had watched Lin Zhining grow up from a young boy, so he knew him well. Seeing his expression, he knew Lin Zhining was about to use his ultimate move.

Using an ultimate move in such a crowd would equate to revealing his trump card to the world. If he faced an opponent of the same level in the future, he might lose his life as the opponent would be prepared.

Lin Zhining hesitated for a moment, but then his expression firmed.

He had to defeat this adversary.

Having already lost to the barbaric girl, if he couldn’t beat Chu Hao, his confidence would be greatly troubled. He was close to breaking through to become a warrior, and if his spirit was not perfect at this moment, he might be stuck here for life.

The world wasn’t lacking for geniuses whose shine was brief, nor was it without those who were ordinary at first but later achieved greatness, their talents blossoming in the late stages.

Fight!

Lin Zhining’s expression turned solemn as he tapped his forehead a few times, and his already shining wolf-shaped mark gleamed brightly as if it turned into a small sun, making it hard for people to keep their eyes open.

"Demon Wolf Annihilation!" He roared, and from his forehead, a blood wolf three meters long leaped out, much smaller than the black Demon Wolves before, but the ferocity was many times stronger.

This was the true Demon Wolf Annihilation Fist of the Lin Family, a technique that could only be performed by their direct descendents.
