Translator: KurazyTolanzuraytor Editor: JayC
"You're shameless!" When Huang Daniu saw Duan Ling Tian fly out as soon he finished speaking and utterly didn't give him a chance to prepare himself, Huang Daniu cursed as he hurriedly followed up.
Bang! Bang!
Material earthen yellow energy appeared in the sky beneath his feet, whereas he kicked off from it to flash out swiftly with a speed so swift that it was even faster than Duan Ling Tian.
Even though this wasn't the ground, and he was unable to rely on the assistance of the energy of the earth, he was a fifth level Void Interpretation Stage martial artist that had comprehended fifth level Intermediate Earth Concept after all. Even if he didn't rely on the energy of the earth, he was similarly capable of exerting a strength of 130 ancient horned dragons!
As for Duan Ling Tian, even though he was a fifth level Void Interpretation Stage martial artist, yet he'd only comprehended third level Intermediate Concept, so even if he utilized the other Elementary Concepts he'd comprehended, he was still inferior to Huang Daniu by the strength of a few ancient horned dragons.
Thus, even though Duan Ling Tian was the first to make a move, Huang Daniu had still caught up to him.
The two of them had tacitly chose the same target.
Luo Chen!
"You two!!" Luo Chen who was stunned by Chen Wei's words saw two figures pouncing at him in the blink of an eye, and he instantly shuddered and recovered from his shock, and he even saw ancient horned dragon silhouettes that shocked him appearing in the sky above the two figures and following the violent clothed young man and robust young man to flash towards him.
110 ancient horned dragon silhouettes!
130 ancient horned dragon silhouettes!
Luo Chen was stunned, utterly stunned.
How could the strength of these two people be so strong?
Slap!
Slap!
Two clear slapping sounds resounded out at practically the exact same moment.
Duan Ling Tian and Huang Daniu had arrived before Luo Chen in the blink of an eye, and they slapped him from both left and right.
Instantly, Luo Zhen's face that could be considered to be handsome became swollen, and his head bulged up like the head of a pig.
"You… You two… AH!!" The eyes of Luo Chen who was slapped to the point his face became swollen went gloomy, and he was about to speak harsh words.
But he hadn't had the chance to finish speaking when his belly was struck by Huang Daniu's fist, causing him to be blasted flying and emit a miserable shrill cry that was like a pig being slaughtered.
Luo Chen was barely able to stop his figure, and he was struck to the point of completely sobering up now.
He felt strands of coldness arise on his back as he looked at the 130 ancient horned dragon silhouettes above Huang Daniu. "This big guy is actually so strong!"
Without utilizing a spirit weapon, Huang Daniu was capable of drawing upon the energy of the heavens and the earth to condense 130 ancient horned dragon silhouettes.
If it was a fourth level Void Interpretation Stage martial artist, then only one that had comprehended sixth level Intermediate Concept would be capable of achieving that.
A fifth level Void Interpretation Stage martial artist that had comprehended fifth level Intermediate Concept was capable of achieving it as well.
A sixth level Void Interpretation Stage martial artist only had to comprehend fourth level Intermediate Concept to be capable of achieving it.
However, no matter which type it was, it wasn't an existence that he could afford to offend.
Besides that, there was also the violet clothed young man.
Luo Chen's gaze descended onto the phenomenon of the heavens and the earth in the sky above Duan Ling Tian.
There were 110 lifelike ancient horned dragon silhouettes coiling down from the sky there, and they possessed an imposing aura that shot into the sky like a rainbow.
"He drew upon the energy of the heavens and the earth to condense 110 ancient horned dragon silhouettes… Even he is stronger than me!" Luo Chen's expression was as unsightly as unsightly could be as he looked with concentration at this violet clothed young man that he'd looked down on earlier.
"How strong!" Meanwhile, the Wood Peak disciples that were spectating emitted shocked exclamations in succession.
For a time, they were shocked by the strengths of these two unfamiliar people, Duan Ling Tian and Huang Daniu.
"They're the Wood Peak disciples Chen Wei and Elder Ke brought back this time?"
"Aren't they too strong? Especially that big guy, he looks to be a little over 30, yet as soon as he made a move, it was like an earth shaking strike, and he drew upon the energy of the heavens and the earth to condense 130 ancient horned dragon silhouettes!"
"That violet clothed young man isn't weak as well. He looked to be around the age of 25, yet his strength has already surpassed Chen Wei and Luo Chen."
…
The group of Wood Peak disciples looked at Duan Ling Tian and Huang Daniu with gazes that contained excitement.
"So long as that big guy isn't poached away by the other three peaks, then our Wood Peak will surely not be at the bottom in the Battle of the Five Peaks this time."
"Exactly! The big guy's strength is already strong and coupled with the Concept he'd comprehended is the Earth Concept. Once he fights on the ground, he'll be able to rely on the extremely terrifying energy of the earth."
"The big guy's strength on the ground is sufficient to crush all the young disciples of the Water Peak, Fire Peak, and Earth Peak!"
…
The gazes of most Wood Peak disciples locked on tightly onto Huang Daniu.
At this moment, at the same time that they revealed excited expressions, their eyes faintly contained a slight perturbed expression, and they were perturbed about whether Huang Daniu would be poached off by the other three peaks.
After all, similar incidents had occurred on numerous occasions, and it caused them to feel rather powerless.
Duan Ling Tian couldn't help but laugh loudly when he noticed the gazes of the surrounding crowd of spectating Wood Peak disciples, and he looked at Huang Daniu as he said, "Haha… Daniu, all of them are extremely afraid that you'd be poached away by the other three peaks."
"Hmph!" Huang Daniu grunted and said with a voice that rumbled like thunder, "All of you think too little of me, Huang Daniu! How could I, Huang Daniu, be a fence sitter that falls over according to how the wind blows…?"
When Huang Daniu spoke up to here, the surrounding crowd of Wood Peak disciples revealed friendly expressions as they felt that their Wood Peak would obtain a young expert that was like a pillar that held up the sky.
But the next words Huang Daniu spoke caused them to be dumbstruck.
"Of course, if anyone is willing to give me around 10 grade two spirit weapons and another 10 plus or 20 Concept Fragments at the seventh level or above, then I think I would be willing to leave the Wood Peak and join their peak." Huang Daniu laughed slyly.
For a time, the crowd of Wood Peak disciples reacted to what he meant and emitted friendly laughter.
Around 10 grades two spirit weapons?
Even if the grade two spirit weapons of the Peak Master and elders were added together, none of the five peaks seemed to possess so many grade two spirit weapons, right?
10 plus or 20 Concept Fragments at the seventh level or above was even more absurd.
Perhaps Huang Daniu's strength wasn't bad and could be considered to be an outstanding talent amongst all the disciples of the younger generation in the Five Element Sect, yet it was still insufficient to make the other three peaks pay such a great price.
"Chen Wei, I truly never imagined that you and Elder Ke actually found two freaks like this… Hong Xi, let's go!" Luo Chen who realized he would be unable to gain an advantage over Chen Wei today glared fiercely at Chen Wei as he rubbed his swollen face, and then he called out to the green clothed young man and intended to leave.
Since the moment he witnessed the strength that Duan Ling Tian and Huang Daniu revealed, Hong Xi's expression had turned extremely unsightly.
Even though his strength wasn't bad, it was only equal to Luo Chen.
If he exerted his full strength while not utilizing a spirit weapon, he would at most possess the strength of 100 ancient horned dragons. Not to mention it was inferior to the big guy, it was even inferior to the violet clothed young man.
Presently, when he heard Luo Chen call out to him, Hong Xi's eyes lit up abruptly, and he flashed towards Luo Chen as if a heavy burden was taken off his shoulders.
He didn't want to stay in this place for another moment.
But would he be able to leave just because he wanted to?
Swoosh! Swoosh!
An azure bolt of lightning that was accompanied by an earthen yellow bolt of lightning flashed through the sky to appear on Hong Xi's path and stopped him.
A violet clothed young man that was completely enveloped in an azure colored gale and a robust young man who was enveloped in an earthen yellow light barrier firmly blocked Hong Xi's path.
"What're you two doing?!" Luo Chen's face darkened.
Hong Xi's face darkened as well when he saw the two people that appeared before him, and then he took a deep breath and squeezed out a trace of a smile with great effort. "I… I didn't…"
"Didn't my ass!" Hong Xi hadn't finished speaking when Huang Daniu had already shouted out explosively to interrupt Hong Xi, and at the same time, he struck out swiftly like a bolt of lightning.
Bang!
Huang Daniu struck out with a punch that seemed like a collapsing mountain and vast earthen yellow energy gushed out to transform into an earthen yellow colored divine dragon that collided fiercely with Hong Xi's chest.
Bang!
The vast energy collided with Hong Xi's chest and smashed Hong Xi flying like an arrow that left the bow.
"AH!" At the instant Hong Xi flew out, his face flushed red as he spat out a large mouthful of blood, and within this blood was blood red chunks. Obviously, his internal organs had been shattered by Huang Daniu's punch.
Bang! Bang!
When he saw Hong Xi's being blasted flying, Huang Daniu obviously didn't intend to let him off just like this, and he stomped on the ground, causing an enormous earthen yellow rock that appeared out of thin air beneath his feet to collapse while he used this counterforce to fly out.
Swoosh!
Huang Daniu's speed was like a swift bolt of lightning, and he caught up to Hong Xi in a short moment.
Bang!
He struck out with another punch that hit precisely on Hong Xi's Dantian, causing his Dantian to be destroyed completely and the Origin Energy within it gushed out uncontrollably.
"AH!!" Hong Xi emitted a miserably shrill cry that sounded like a pig being slaughtered, and then the Origin Energy on his body was extinguished, causing his body to lose the support of his Origin Energy and plunge down.
Without his Origin Energy, even if Hong Xi was capable of sensing the Concept in the heavens and the earth, yet without Origin Energy to be its host, he was unable to fuse the Concept into his body to support him.
"Luo… Luo Chen! Save… Save me!" Hong Xi's body accelerated as it dropped down, and he opened his mouth with great difficulty to seek for help from Luo Chen. If Luo Chen didn't save him, then he would surely fall to his death.
When Hong Xi's Dantian was destroyed by Huang Daniu, the way Luo Chen looked at Hong Xi had changed completely.
Now, when he heard Hong Xi seeking for help, he grunted coldly. "Hmph! Useless trash."
After that, he flew off to leave without turning back, and he left Hong Xi to continue plunging down before falling onto a cliff with a bang and transforming into a pile of mush.
"Hong Xi is pitiable." Duan Ling Tian withdrew his gaze from Hong Xi and glanced at Luo Chen's figure that was disappearing into the distance, and the he shook his head.
"Luo Chen is really trash! I, Big Brother Daniu, showed great mercy and only crippled his companion's Dantian, yet didn't intend to kill his companion… But he actually disregarded his companion and fled directly." Huang Daniu smacked his lips as he cursed.
Showed great mercy?
The surrounding crowd of Wood Peak disciples were speechless when they heard Huang Daniu.
You f*cking crippled his Dantian, yet it's showing great mercy?
If you didn't cripple his Dantian, then would he fall to his death?
"Let's go." Chen Wei seemed to be accustomed to Huang Daniu's violent nature, and he called out to Duan Ling Tian's group of three before continuing to descend towards the pavilion below.
"Hmph! Hmph! Luo Chen was really let off lightly." Ye Xuan who was brought down from the sky by Duan Ling Tian clenched her small fists tightly as she spoke hatefully.
