I Have Unlimited Dantians-Chapter 43 - 34: I am Yangg Yan’s Master (Part 2)
’Not even someone from the Qi Sect would have this kind of finger strength. This... who in the world is this?’
’I’m afraid this hole was made during a fight, not even with a full-powered strike. If they’re this formidable without using their full strength, what level of power do they possess?’
Those who could become a Clan Leader and Elders were no fools. With just a single glance, they understood what had happened, and every one of them began to tremble in fear.
"Who is making such a ruckus here and disturbing my Cultivation?"
Just as they were reeling from the shock, an overwhelmingly tyrannical aura suddenly emanated from behind the rock. Under this pressure, the several Elders and Yangg Tiecheng felt like ants prostrating before a Divine Dragon, completely devoid of any will to resist!
’What kind of power is this...’ Cold sweat beaded on all of their foreheads.
’Although I haven’t reached the Qi Sect level, I’m already at the Peak of the Seventh Layer Armor Realm, and very close. This is definitely not an aura a Qi Sect expert could possess. A Qi Sect’s aura couldn’t render me so utterly powerless to resist. Could it be... an Ultimate Venerable Level master?’
Yangg Tiecheng trembled all over.
A Qi Sect Powerhouse at the Eighth Layer of Qi Sea Nine Heavens might have already reached the level of a First Generation Grandmaster and possess formidable strength, but they definitely couldn’t exert such a powerful pressure! The sheer force of this pressure suggested he was at least at the Ultimate Venerable Level!
The Ultimate Venerable. The highest level of the Qi Sea Nine Heavens. The entire Divine Wind Empire only had a few... How could one possibly appear in a small place like Luoshui City?
"Senior, we were just passing by. We meant no offense..."
Though terrified, Yangg Tiecheng and the others didn’t dare to leave abruptly, afraid they would anger this senior and be killed with a single poke of his finger! They certainly didn’t believe their bodies were tougher than a granite boulder dozens of meters in diameter!
"You disturbed my peaceful cultivation and you dare say you meant no offense? Get over here!" The voice from behind the rock sounded furious as it barked a cold order.
With that shout, the oncoming pressure intensified, washing over them like an overwhelming tide and making it hard for them to breathe!
"Clan Leader, what should we do? Should we go over?" Hearing the command to approach, the Elders all hesitated.
’We don’t know who this person is. What if we go over there, annoy him, and he kills us all in a single breath?’
"We go. If we don’t, I’m afraid it will only anger him further. We absolutely cannot afford to offend a senior of this caliber!"
Taking a deep breath, Yangg Tiecheng made his decision.
The man could emit such a potent pressure and pierce such a massive rock with a single finger; his power was far beyond their imagination. Since he was ordering them to approach, he probably didn’t have much malicious intent. Otherwise, even if they didn’t go, he could just as easily kill them where they stood!
’I don’t think I have what it takes to escape from a powerhouse like that!’
"Alright!" Although the Elders were extremely reluctant, after a moment’s thought, they also concluded that approaching was the best option. They nodded in unison and followed Yangg Tiecheng toward the rock.
Behind the boulder was a wide, open clearing. As they walked around it, they saw a man in black robes sitting cross-legged on a stone about thirty meters away.
This black-robed man’s beard and hair were completely white, and he had the transcendent air of an immortal. It was obvious at a glance that he was a super-powerhouse with profound Cultivation.
"The Clan Leader of Luoshui City’s Yangg Family and its Elders pay our respects to you, Senior!"
Although the black-robed man currently seemed to have no aura at all, Yangg Tiecheng knew that killing him would be incredibly simple for the man. Not daring to be arrogant, he immediately performed the salute of a junior.
WHOOSH!
The moment his words fell, the black-robed man slowly opened his eyes, and a radiant golden light shot out from his pupils!
’Essence Qi transforming into Divine Spirit? An Ultimate Venerable Level master! This is definitely an Ultimate Venerable Powerhouse!’
Seeing that radiant golden light, Yangg Tiecheng cried out inwardly, his mind reeling as if hit by a tidal wave.
He had once read a description of Ultimate Venerable Powerhouses in the family’s books. It was said that when experts of this level circulate their energy, their eyes emit a faint golden light as their Essence Qi transforms into Divine Spirit!
This black-robed man matched the description in the books perfectly. Coupled with the methods and pressure they had witnessed, what else could he be but an Ultimate Venerable Powerhouse?
"The Yangg Family of Luoshui City? Do you happen to know Yangg Yan?" the black-robed man suddenly asked.
"Yangg Yan? That is my humble son..." Yangg Tiecheng didn’t know why the man was asking this. His heart skipped a beat, unsure if this was a blessing or a curse.
"Normally, I would kill anyone who disturbs my rest on the spot! However, since you are my disciple’s father, it wouldn’t be right for me to act. Leave at once. If I find you loitering around here again, watch your worthless hides!"
The black-robed man waved his hand dismissively.
"My disciple’s father? Senior, you are Yangg Yan’s... my humble son’s master?" Hearing the man’s words, Yangg Tiecheng’s heart leaped into his throat, nearly scaring him to death.
"That boy, Yangg Yan, is very much to my liking. I casually bought a Fiery Flame Axe for him and taught him a set of axe-based Martial Arts. You could call him half a disciple. Hmph. If not for that, do you think I would have let you go today?"
Hearing the question, the black-robed man glared. A monstrous aura descended from the heavens once more, like a Celestial God appearing in the mortal world. The immense pressure made the knees of Yangg Tiecheng and the others buckle, nearly forcing them to the ground!
"Yes, yes! We will leave at once..." Sensing this aura, Yangg Tiecheng knew the senior before him was now angry. Too scared to ask anything else, he fled in a panic with his Elders.
They sprinted for a mile or two before they could no longer feel that deadly aura. Only then did they let out a simultaneous sigh of relief. When they looked at each other, they found their clothes were all soaked through with cold sweat, clinging uncomfortably to their bodies.
"Clan Leader," one of the Elders said after a moment, finally putting the pieces together, "he said he casually bought a Fiery Flame Axe for Yangg Yan... which means... he’s the one who killed the first heir, Yangg Jun..."
"So what if he killed him? Are you going to go get revenge?" another Elder retorted irritably.
"Get revenge on him..." The first Elder thought of the pressure from just moments ago, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead again. "I’m not tired of living yet... Forget me, even all of us combined would be no match for that man..."
"He may have killed Yangg Jun, but he also took Yangg Yan as a disciple. If we can build a good relationship with Yangg Yan, wouldn’t that mean our family will have an Ultimate Venerable Level powerhouse backing us in the future?" the second Elder’s eyes lit up as he had a sudden realization.
"This..."
Hearing this, all the Elders were tempted. However, the final decision still rested with the Clan Leader. After all, both Yangg Yan and Yangg Jun were his sons.
Listening to the Elders’ discussion, Yangg Tiecheng was also deep in thought.
’So what if I know he killed my son? His power is too immense. If we anger him, forget one son—he could wipe out the entire Yangg Family in a matter of moments!’
’In this world, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests!’
’He may be the man who murdered my son, but he is also my other son’s master. With his incredible power, if we can truly build a good relationship with him, the Yangg Family’s rapid rise to become the number one family in Luoshui City would be just around the corner!’
"You are right. It seems I will have to start paying attention to this son I have never valued..."
Taking a deep breath, Yangg Tiecheng let out a sigh.
The man killed his son, and yet he had to find a way to curry favor with him. There was nothing to be done about it. This was the reality of power.
"Let’s go back. Today’s hunt is over. There’s no need to continue!"
Having figured out his course of action, Yangg Tiecheng waved his hand and led the few Elders quickly back toward their clansmen.
The purpose of the hunt was to select the family’s first heir. With such a perfect opportunity laid out before them, was there any need to choose anyone else?
