Chapter 180 – Tremendous Upset Under Countless Gazes!
The silver serpent shot across the surface of the ocean at a breakneck speed. Although it was just a phantom image, Xu Disheng could still see the serpent’s cold, cruel gaze.
“Controlling Waves.”
Xu Disheng lightly flicked his white and blue adorned sleeves. His jet black hair began to sweep in the wind, and even the endlessly roiling surface of the ocean went still for a moment.
The two words that left his mouth were simple, but they made Yu Yangyao’s expression change dramatically.
“How could that be possible?!”
“That’s the third form of Azure Ocean, the Controlling Waves technique!”
Many disciples of the Mingxin Mountain Range shot to their feet in disbelief as they stared wide-eyed at the slender figure of the youth in the white and blue robe.
“This technique requires the user to be at the Dao Foundation stage at the very least. It’s an incredibly powerful technique, but how is a half-step Dao Foundation stage cultivator like him able to use it?”
“That’s Celestial Tide Spirit Master’s Azure Ocean cultivation method!”
“Did he break through to the Dao Foundation stage? But there’s no way! If he really broke through, then he would immediately be teleported out of the Luminous Cloud Abyss by the white mist.”
Through the screens of light, countless people watched the scene taking place between Xu Disheng and Yu Yangyao above the surface of the ocean.
After the ocean’s brief moment of calmness, massive waves suddenly shot up into the sky!
With the added power of the scenario’s environment, the might of the Controlling Waves technique was enough to shock the heavens!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs the enormous waves roared, ocean mist sprayed, sending up screens of spindrift dozens of meters tall. Xu Disheng stood in the air at the crest of the wave. He swept his sleeves, keeping his eyes on the rapidly approaching silver serpent.
The raging waves crashed!
The tremendously powerful waves collided with the silver serpent, battering its body. It was tossed aside by the force, smashing into the surface of the ocean!
This was the might of a cultivation method!
“So strong...!”
“What a powerful cultivation method!”
“Yu Yangyao is going to lose!”
The crowd went into an uproar, filling the air with shouts of surprise.
Back at the Zhao Realm, Zhao Yan, the Dao Foundation stage Vice Peak Master, had used a cultivation method known as the Nine Rotations Blood Pool to suppress Xu Disheng, almost bringing him to his death!
Only a Dao Foundation stage cultivator could truly practice a cultivation method and demonstrate its real power. Now, Xu Disheng was using a cultivation method, the Controlling Waves technique, allowing him to swat the phantom image of the core formation monster that Yu Yangyao was so proud of right into the ocean!
“A genius!”
“This is a true genius!”
“The Controlling Waves technique is a move from Celestial Tide Spirit Master’s cultivation method, Azure Ocean. It can only be cultivated after reaching the Dao Foundation stage because it requires a large amount of the power of heaven and earth to use, which only a Dao Foundation stage cultivator can control!” someone who was familiar with Celestial Tide Spirit Master exclaimed with shock apparent in his tone.
“This guy can control so much of the power of heaven and earth despite only being at the half-step Dao Foundation stage? How could this be?! What kind of unparalleled genius is this?!”
For a moment of time, more and more gazes turned towards Xu Disheng’s screen of light. There were even several Primordial Lords who looked over.
“Primordial Lord Yangze, it seems that your Mingxin Mountain Range has produced quite the terrifying young brat,” Earth Fox Primordial Lord said with praise apparent in his voice as he sized up Xu Disheng’s figure, standing there at the crest of a massive wave.
Primordial Lord Yangze was a bit astonished himself. He took a closer look at Xu Disheng and said, “This cultivation method indeed requires the power of heaven and earth to use this water-type spell. This brat must have already fully comprehended his Dao Path. He must have even completely grasped his profound law foundation in his Jianggong sea of qi, otherwise he wouldn’t be able to bring out combat power on par with a Dao Foundation stage cultivator like he is now.”
“These kinds of unparalleled geniuses that have already fully comprehended their Dao Paths must be rare in the Shangqing Sacred Sect too, no?” Earth Fox Primordial Lord said, curiosity evident in his inquisitive tone.
“That’s right. In the Mingxin Mountain Range, which I rule over, I am the only one,” Primordial Lord Yangze said. He muttered under his breath as if he remembered something and said, “A little while ago, Celestial Tide sent a jade slip to Shangqing Mountain Range’s Clearheart Peak, nominating someone for the title of Sacred Son. It must have been for this brat.”
He gently flicked his sleeves, sending out a watery blue light. It disappeared shortly after, flying out of the Luminous Cloud Abyss in the direction of Clearheart Peak.
Shangqing Mountain Range’s Clearheart Peak was fully responsible for investigating those nominated for the title of Sacred Son and Daughter.
In the inner realm of the Luminous Cloud Abyss, Xu Disheng was naturally unaware of his own screen of light. In the sea of clouds, he was already the focus of tens of thousands of gazes. He took several precious True Qi Pills, then prepared to use the Controlling Waves technique once more.
A True Qi Pill cost 400 spirit stones in the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion, and could restore a Dao Foundation stage cultivator’s profound qi at a very fast rate.
Although Xu Disheng hadn’t reached the Dao Foundation stage yet, this one move had cost him 70% of the profound qi in the ancient bell in his sea of qi. A Qi Boosting Pill was no longer sufficient for him to replenish his profound qi, so he could only use True Qi Pills, which even Dao Foundation stage cultivators found extremely precious.
“How could this be?!” Yu Yangyao muttered. He was standing there with the Coiling Serpent Pike in his hands, still unable to regain his bearings.
“Senior Martial Brother Yu.”
As Xu Disheng stood there at the crest of the waves, he spoke, looking down at Yu Yangyao.
“You broke through to the Dao Foundation stage, didn’t you?” Yu Yangyao asked as he looked up at Xu Disheng with a hint of hope deep in his eyes, hoping for a straight answer.
When Xu Disheng shook his head, Yu Yangyao’s heart slowly dropped.
In reality, one of the major reasons he could be the first place genius in the Mingxin Mountain Range was because Killing Heart Spirit Master had been allocating him the necessary cultivation resources, as well as his rare Rank 4 Spiritual Root aptitude.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe fact that Xu Disheng could already move a bit of the power of heaven and earth at only the half-step Dao Foundation stage, and could even practice a cultivation method that only those at the Dao Foundation stage could cultivate meant that he was the greater genius.
This was difficult for Yu Yangyao, who was always proud and aloof, to accept.
He looked down at the waves below Xu Disheng that towered dozens of meters tall, and saw the water elemental energy coursing within, amplified by the scenario’s environment. The aura it was emitting was growing more and more terrifying, and he knew that if he made even the slightest move, it would crash upon him like a thousand bolts of thunder. What would he use to block something like that?
Yu Yangyao felt discouraged and disheartened. Without any further words, he activated his jade identity tablet and teleported out of the inner realm of the Luminous Cloud Abyss.
In the sea of clouds, Yu Yangyao’s figure appeared outside the massive cloud gate. Moments later, the gazes of countless people from sects large and small all turned towards him with varying expressions in their eyes.
He lifted his head and looked at the hundreds of screens of light in the sky, his eyes falling on Xu Disheng’s enormous screen of light. The ocean shattered to pieces, and the youth in the white and blue robe was wrapped up in white mist and teleported elsewhere.
Feeling the gazes upon him, Yu Yangyao felt complex emotions welling within him. He immediately left the Luminous Cloud Abyss, silent and speechless.
“Senior Martial Brother Xu is a real genius!”
At some unknown point in time, Xu Disheng had gained the respect of many among the tens of thousands of disciples in the Mingxin Mountain Range. They were now cheering for him with excited looks on their faces.
“Senior Martial Brother Yu is too disappointing. When the match between him and Xu Disheng began, I bet 70 spirit stones, but now I lost everything!” A disciple in one of the marketplaces in the sect shouted angrily, eyes full of regret as he watched the scene taking place on the screen.
Atop the cloud chariots, the far-reaching gazes of the Divine Core stage Spirit Masters fell upon Xu Disheng, each with a different look in their eyes.
“With this one match, this child revealed such unparalleled powers of comprehension ... Even if his Spiritual Root talent is ordinary, he is worth fully supporting and nurturing.”
“I hear that this child is tied to Celestial Tide Spirit Master’s influence. With such a frightening display of power of comprehension, he is now the first ranked Sea of Qi stage genius in the Mingxin Mountain Range. I suppose fame really does follow merit.”
“How does this child compare to people like Ji Haohan and Mo Yue?”
“They can’t even be mentioned in the same sentence! Even though this child’s powers of comprehension are outstanding, it’s apparently recorded that his talent is only a Rank 6 Spiritual Root. There’s no way he can match up to unparalleled geniuses like Mo Yue and the others, who have Rank 3 Spiritual Roots.”
“It’s a pity. If his talent was higher, the title for Sacred Son this time might...”
“The Sacred Son from the Sea of Qi division will definitely be Zhang Yangui.”
“Exactly. Zhang Yangui is not only the direct grandson of Qingfu, the Realm Master of the Yuluo Realm, but he has also spent decades training under Red Lotus Primordial Lord. Besides, if it wasn’t for the Burning Heart Sword Poison... he might have already broken through to the Divine Core stage.”
