Eternal Heavenly Emperor-Chapter 376 - 366: Snowy Plains Sect Admits Defeat
Chu Hao swiftly pursued and charged towards the twin with a severed arm.
"Bastard, go to hell!" the other twin slashed at him with the arm blade, intending to block Chu Hao’s path.
Chu Hao thrust his sword forward. In such a short time, he couldn’t execute the Mad Thunder Sword Technique again, but a layer of flaming blade shimmered on his sword, emitting a heart-pounding glow.
He had laid the Starlight upon his sword edge.
Even though the Deep Blue Sword was of Sixth Grade True Gold, the Starlight Chu Hao had condensed twentyfold was truly terrifying; it even gradually turned the sword’s edge red, and there seemed to be signs of softening.
"Impossible!" the White-haired Demon Lord cried out urgently.
Splat!
Chu Hao’s sword struck the other twin’s arm blade, and the Deep Blue Sword smoothly sliced through, sending half of a severed arm flying through the air, trailing a streak of fresh blood like a rainbow.
"Ah!" That twin screamed as well, following his brother’s footsteps.
In an instant, both of the formidable twins had a limb severed, which was their greatest capability.
Meanwhile, the three who had been sent flying had just steadied themselves, their bodies still trembling as the power of the lightning had not entirely dissipated.
The entire place fell silent. Who would have thought that five Peak Warriors attacking one from the fourth spring would result in three being shoved back and two being maimed?
Chu Hao twirled his sword, stabilizing the boiling Star Force within him.
Those few moves, though appearing simple, had manifested his full strength.
Starlight, Mad Thunder Sword Technique, Body Cultivation, elemental powers; he had almost exhausted all his ultimate moves to achieve such a feat. This had drained him significantly, and he needed a moment to recuperate.
"Senior Brother Chu! Senior Brother Chu! Senior Brother Chu!" The disciples of the Spirit Spring Sect called out one after another, releasing all the suppressed anger. At this moment, Chu Hao was their hero.
Once the Star Force within him stabilized, Chu Hao attacked once more. With a boom, Life Spring gushed out a powerful Star Force, leading to another massive explosion. Chu Hao charged forward with the Deep Blue Sword, aiming to finish off the twin brothers.
They hadn’t met before today and naturally had no personal grievances, but their differing stances had ignited an intense killing intent towards these strangers in Chu Hao’s heart.
—It was you who provoked this.
Kill!
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, the Deep Blue Sword once again gathered light, and a Thunder Dragon was rapidly forming.
"Think again!" The other three had also dispelled the electric power within them, skillfully avoiding the front and attacking Chu Hao from different angles.
The twin brothers, however, had almost lost all their combat power. Their primary weapons were their arm blades, and without them, they lost at least ninety percent of their combat effectiveness, essentially becoming cripples.
Chu Hao deployed the Wind and Cloud Step, whoosh, he suddenly accelerated, instantly appearing in front of the twin brothers.
"Bastard!" the two brothers retaliated simultaneously, slapping towards Chu Hao with their other hands.
Chu Hao’s left hand swept across, Starlight flashed, splat, splat, two heads soared into the air while two headless bodies spurted fresh blood, shooting up three to four meters high like fountains before falling.
Only then did he turn around, the Deep Blue Sword struck out, the Thunder Dragon formed and roared forth.
However, since the other three had already scattered, this strike naturally could only target one person, while the remaining two rapidly moved in from the left and right, each thrusting their swords at Chu Hao.
Chu Hao merely protected his eyes with his left hand, letting the two men stab him.
Was he seeking death?
Elemental Transformation could only protect one part, but now faced with swords thrusting from both sides, it was impossible to cover both.
Splat, splat, both swords nearly simultaneously struck, but when their tips touched Chu Hao’s body, they couldn’t penetrate at all.
What was happening?
The two men pushed their swords with all their might, yet the blades slightly bent but still could not pierce Chu Hao’s skin.
Chu Hao smiled, his right hand wielding the sword.
Splat, splat, two more heads flew into the sky, dancing in the air.
Only one left.
"Such a terrifying physique!" Everyone exclaimed. This time Chu Hao hadn’t used Elemental Transformation but had endured the attacks of the two men with his sheer physical strength, fully displaying the immense power of Body Cultivation.
The last individual had just neutralized the Thunder Dragon’s Roar, but upon looking around and realizing he was the on
The White-haired Demon Lord’s body was surrounded by ripples of Star Force, which blocked all the splashing blood. He snorted coldly and said, "The Snowy Plains Sect needs no cowards, nor does it harbor any."
How ruthless—a thirty-year-old Eighth Tier Warrior could be considered a talent anywhere he went, yet he was mercilessly killed with a single palm strike.
Chu Hao’s boiling anger finally found an outlet. His expression was icy as he looked at the remaining seven from the Snowy Plains Sect and said, "You can all come at me together."
"Hmph, there’s no need to continue," the White-haired Demon said as he looked toward War Emperor Tianshuang, "We admit defeat this time. However, the true genius of our Sect is still in closed-door training, striving for ’Ten Springs Unified.’ He will surely succeed before the Heaven Talented Assembly in Nine States. Then...we will see the real victor."
"Let’s go!" He swept up the disciples of the Snowy Plains Sect, both dead and alive, within a force field, and his figure shot upwards, disappearing in an instant.
The Withered Wood War Emperor flashed a grin at Chu Hao and likewise shot into the air, following after them.
They had won, and it was a resounding victory.
But the disciples of the Spirit Spring Sect were only briefly excited before they again became silent.
Their victory was not because the Spirit Spring Sect was stronger; it was because they had Chu Hao, the newly ranked top of the Fledging Dragon List in Cang State, who was exceedingly powerful. The strength of a sect is not sustained by one person alone—unless Chu Hao could reach the level of a War Emperor or even a War God.
Looking at the average strength of this generation, it was clear that the Snowy Plains Sect was stronger, having successively killed five Heaven Talented disciples from the Spirit Spring Sect.
A strong sense of urgency arose in everyone’s hearts; they had to become stronger, or else they could only cower in the presence of the Snowy Plains Sect in the future.
Chu Hao returned to his original position. Dong Wei had already lifted the body of Yang Jin, as the dead deserved a swift burial.
Zhang Tianhua was still in closed training, and Ke Ruoshan had left for his own trials. When they learned of Yang Jin’s death, they would undoubtedly grieve deeply.
The Barbaric Girl approached. When she saw Xiaocao, even this brash girl showed a hint of fear. Her physique was robust, nearly invulnerable to peers in her realm, but facing Xiaocao, with her Innate Poison Body, she was devastatingly overpowered.
"Girl, would you be interested in joining our sect?" War Emperor Tianshuang asked with keen interest, looking at Xiaocao. Previously, he had underestimated her. He hadn’t expected that a woman with only Martial Sect cultivation could so easily kill a Warrior.
"Not interested." Xiaocao refused without a second thought. Her interest lay in cultivating Spirit Grass and refining Pills, not pursuing higher Martial Arts Realms. Otherwise, with her ability to consume poisonous plants to augment her cultivation, she wouldn’t still be at the level of only a Martial Sect.
War Emperor Tianshuang was rebuffed and felt somewhat embarrassed. He glanced at Chu Hao, naturally hoping that Chu Hao would help persuade her.
How could Chu Hao force Xiaocao to do something she was unwilling to do? He pretended not to see the look War Emperor Tianshuang sent him, which only made the old man want to stomp his feet in agitation.
But then he thought, the Spirit Spring Sect already had Chu Hao and the Barbaric Girl—they shouldn’t be too greedy.
Gu Qingcheng regarded Chu Hao as if seeing him for the first time, her eyes filled with wonder.
She had only heard of Chu Hao’s strength, that he had taken the top spot of Cang State’s Fledging Dragon List, but frankly, the level of martial arts in Cang State was the lowest among the Nine States. Cang State’s top talent placed in another state, even the eighth-ranking Yue State, would only rank about tenth.
So, although she had accepted this task, she had actually just wanted to visit Cang State for leisure. She wasn’t particularly concerned about recruiting talents like Chu Hao, Yue Feng, or Zhou Xi.
But now she realized she had been wrong. Chu Hao’s potential was immense; in Wood State, he could be ranked among the top five.
Such a talent is definitely something the Gu family must secure!
"Brother Chu!" she said sweetly, and although Chu Hao knew she was a fatally enticing siren, he still couldn’t help being stirred by her seductive voice.
"I once again extend my invitation for you to visit the Gu family, and you can set the conditions," she said.
Chu Hao smirked and asked, "What if my condition is you?"
"Impudent rogue!" Yiyi immediately chided.
However, Gu Qingcheng giggled and replied, "That’s not something we can’t discuss. Once at the Gu family, we can slowly foster our affection."
That was clearly an empty promise. Believing her would be foolish.
Chu Hao also smiled and said, "I still have a battle with Yue Feng ahead, and after that, I will be attending the Heaven Talented Assembly in Nine States soon. I really don’t have the time to visit Wood State now."
"You might not be able to go, but your words could," Gu Qingcheng began to deploy her charm. "Could you first agree to visit the Gu family, please?" She looked at Chu Hao with imploring, alluring eyes.
Chu Hao’s heart wavered, but his strong will reminded him that this was her trap of tenderness—not to be ensnared. But then he remembered that under the influence of the Thousand Illusion Fruit’s medicinal properties, he had transformed into a baby and had taken some liberties with Gu Qingcheng.
Even though Gu Qingcheng was unaware of it, Chu Hao felt somewhat guilty, as if he owed her something.
Thus, he nodded and said, "I agree. I’ll visit after the Heaven Talented Assembly."
Gu Qingcheng’s smile blossomed. "Thank you, Brother Chu."
Xiaocao watched quietly, yet suddenly, an impulse to poison Gu Qingcheng surged within her—a shock, as Gu Qingcheng hadn’t done anything evil. Why then did she harbor thoughts of poisoning her?
Moreover, it was contrary to her usual habit of not wasting "fertilizers."
She tilted her head, puzzled by such thoughts for the first time in her life, which left her feeling somewhat unsettled.
"Chu, you and Yun Cai have both made good progress in Body Techniques. I actually know of a martial technique well-suited to you both, but acquiring it involves some risks," War Emperor Tianshuang suddenly said. (To be continued.
