Chapter 123 - 120: Counter Deception (1/4)

Chapter 123: Chapter 120: Counter Deception (1/4)

"Indeed, a mere Spirit Gathering Realm has no use here, it’s time to go down and explore!"

"We are the favored children of the heavens, how can we risk ourselves!"

"Zhou Heng, we will protect you from behind, just go in with confidence!"

After a slight shock, everyone agreed. As long as it wasn’t them going in, who cared who it was! Moreover, there were only three from the Spirit Gathering Realm who had entered here, and only Jing Tian and Zhou Heng were present, definitely the easiest to bully.

However, Jing Tian was a Ten Stars Earth Spirit Body, treasured immensely by the Heavenly Star Sect, and also protected by Princess Shuiyue, who would dare to compel him? Zhou Heng was different, though he also had a Heaven-Opening Realm expert behind him, there was only one, and that expert was not even present!

It was Princess Shuiyue who pressured him. They were merely adding fuel to the flames, and if An Luochen sought revenge later, he would first have to find Nangong Yuerong. Besides, with mass discontent difficult to offend, would An Luochen dare to confront the entire Cold Blue Country?

For a time, voices were boiling, pushing Zhou Heng to explore inside the golden light cover.

"This woman is truly venomous!" An Yumei whispered into Zhou Heng’s ear.

Indeed venomous, choosing this moment to strike, if Zhou Heng opposed, he would be going against everyone! And if he obediently complied, his life and death would be unpredictable, not to mention losing face thereafter.

"Boy, get in there fast!" Some people lost patience, scowling as they shouted.

Zhou Heng smiled instead of angering, asking, "Why don’t you go in yourself?"

"Nonsense!" Many people cursed him. In their eyes, a mere Martial Artist of the Spirit Gathering Realm was as insignificant as an ant, no matter how talented or unmatched at his level, if he didn’t cross the threshold, he was trash!

"Force him in!" Nangong Yuerong said coldly.

As a current princess and a high disciple of the Heavenly Star Sect, her command held almost a sacred decree.

"By Princess’s decree!" Many complied respectfully. After all, with Princess Shuiyue shielding them, they did not want to wait any longer, eagerly wishing to uncover the secrets hidden inside the light cover.

Time waits for no one!

"Boy, don’t force us to act!" About a dozen people crowded around him.

"How dare you!" An Yumei immediately rebuked sharply, her charming eyes wide open, a powerful pressure swept over, shocking everyone to the point of losing their fighting spirit, nearly falling to the ground in submission.

Dragon Might!

She had refined the Yellow Dragon Pill and acquired Azure Dragon Bloodline, unexpectedly mastering even the Dragon Might, not something necessarily attainable, giving Zhou Heng a sense of pleasant surprise.

Zhou Heng smiled, took a step forward, and said, "So many people, isn’t there even one who will speak a word of justice?"

"The bigger fist is the justice!" someone snorted coldly. After all, they were all at the Initial Separation Realm, the Dragon Might could affect them, but only just that, it couldn’t control their hearts and will.

Zhou Heng’s gaze swept across, his expression turning cold, saying, "I’m easy to talk to and never initiate trouble! However, if someone bothers me, I don’t mind teaching them a harsh lesson!"

"Anyone who strikes me, I’ll throw all of you into that cover!" he pointed at the golden light cover.

"Ha, hahaha!" Everyone burst into laughter, Zhou Heng was declaring war on everyone - did this boy think being unmatched at his level meant he could challenge the Initial Separation Realm? Did he think having a Heaven-Opening Realm father-in-law meant everyone would bow before him?

"Presumptuous boy, let me give you a reality check!" A young man lunged forward, reaching out to grab Zhou Heng.

"Scram!" Zhou Heng snorted coldly, his figure flashed, positioning himself in front of the opponent, and reached out to grab the opponent’s arm, twisting it violently, crack crack crack, the sound of bones shattering rang out, causing the man to scream in pain.

Zhou Heng casually threw him, and the man crashed headfirst into the golden light cover, the screaming suddenly ceased, and the entire person disappeared from view!

Dead? Or transported somewhere else?

No one could verify this!

Since Zhou Heng had made his move, he showed no mercy; his form shifted again, the Swift Cloud Radiant Step unleashed, he moved like a tiger among sheep, with frequent ruthless moves, in just a few breaths, three more men had their arms twisted off, thrown into the golden light cover.

He didn’t care whether throwing people inside was lethal or not, since they wanted to force him in, why should he show any restraint?

Under the bombardment of Spiritual Power, those whose bones he had shattered, even if they possessed Bloodline Power, couldn’t expect to heal quickly; they needed to first dispel his Spiritual Power! And to completely dispel all the Exotic Spiritual Power, that wasn’t a matter of a moment.

— If entering the golden light cover didn’t lead to death, then let them suffer alive; anyway, don’t expect an easy time!

The mastering of movements combined with the Swift Cloud Radiant Step, with forty times the strength of an ordinary person at the Initial First Layer Heaven, aside from the Initial Second Layer Heaven who could still struggle a bit, no one else had the power to fight back, were thrown into the light cover like weeds.

Screams rose and fell but then abruptly stopped.

"This, this isn’t the Spirit Gathering Realm!"

"Initial Separation Realm!"

"Damn it, this kid has entered the Initial Separation Realm!"

"Monster! Before entering the ruins, he was clearly just at the Initial Period of the Third Layer Heaven in the Spirit Gathering Realm. How could he possibly have broken through to the Initial Separation Realm so quickly!"

When Zhou Heng took action, he could no longer hide his aura of the Initial Separation Realm. After all, he didn’t have the ability to suppress his power at the Third Layer Heaven of the Spirit Gathering Realm while still handling people so easily. free𝑤ebnovel.com

Since he had been discovered, so be it. The Dayan Sect’s relics were filled with opportunities, and breaking through a Great Realm wasn’t entirely unacceptable.

A few minutes later, Zhou Heng had thrown more than thirty people into the barrier. The remaining people retreated behind Princess Shuiyue and two other strongest ones in the Initial Separation Third Layer Heaven, as only they could now face Zhou Heng.

Nangong Yuerong’s face was extremely unsightly. She had thought she could easily handle Zhou Heng, but within just a few days, he had jumped into the Initial Separation Realm! She would never think that just because she was two Minor Realms higher, she could surely beat Zhou Heng. His power was terrifyingly strong, and with at least a Middle Grade Earth Level martial arts technique, it could very well decide the victory!

She wasn’t unaware of the proverb about fattening a tiger to one’s harm, but who could have imagined that this abomination could achieve such a breakthrough in such a short time?

"So many people have gone in already, what are you still being polite for?" Zhou Heng said with a slight smile, "You have two choices, the first is to go in by yourselves, without any suffering! The second, is to be thrown in by me, but then you’ll be losing an arm!"

"Don’t be too arrogant!"

"You’ve just entered the Initial Separation Realm, there are plenty of people who can handle you!"

The remaining people all shouted out in dissatisfaction.

"Hmph, when you thought you had the upper hand and pressured me before, why didn’t you say that?" Zhou Heng coldly stated, "Now that my fist is bigger than yours, yes, I am bullying you. What about it?"

"Bastard!" Moved by strong feelings, they, who were all the favored sons of their own sects, had never suffered such humiliation, "Let’s go together, take him down!"

Nobody knew who shouted first, but nearly seventy Initial Separation Realm Martial Artists surged forward, attacking Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng was strong. Though he was at the Initial Separation First Layer Heaven, his combat power was at least at the Third Layer Heaven! But fists alone couldn’t stand against multiple hands, and the numerous fighters proved the old saying true!

An Initial Separation Third Layer Heaven Martial Artist could simultaneously face off against five from the Second Layer Heaven, and one from the Second Layer Heaven could also almost stand against five from the First Layer Heaven. The remaining seventy or so people, with a third of them at the Second Layer Heaven, combined power was something even Princess Shuiyue wouldn’t dare confront head-on!

However, they had overestimated themselves and underestimated Zhou Heng.

"Audacity!" An Yumei roared furiously, her voice as compelling as a dragon’s call, with overwhelming might rolling forth!

Everyone was alarmed, reacting involuntarily slower by a half beat, but during this Zhou Heng suddenly surged forward, crack, crack, crack, sounds of snapping bones echoed, and another seven or eight people had their bones shattered and were thrown into the light barrier by him.

"Dragon, Dragon’s Might!" Nangong Yuerong’s eyes flashed with astonishment, glaring intensely at An Yumei, displaying a color of disbelief.

In her eyes, An Yumei was nothing more than a flirtatious fragile lady. If not for her father of Heaven-Opening Realm standing behind her, she was no better than a brothel woman. Yet this dragon call shattered her perception; the might of a dragon, though lacking actual killing power, when properly used, was no less inferior to any high-tier martial techniques!

How could this woman suddenly possess the Dragon’s Might?

Piecing together Zhou Heng’s sudden advancement to the Initial Separation Realm, Nangong Yuerong felt an insight: these two must have obtained a great opportunity from the ruins!

Envy, jealousy!

She was the princess, the real favored daughter of heaven, these opportunities should have been hers!

"Enough!" Someone lunged out, punching towards Zhou Heng, his punch fierce like a dagger, tearing the air apart, manifesting immense power.

"You say it’s enough?" Zhou Heng met the punch without showing weakness, bang, a loud impact echoed, both figures reeled back three steps, unexpectedly an even match.

Seeing this outcome, Nangong Yuerong’s face changed again.

She naturally recognized the one exchanging blows with Zhou Heng, the man was Fei Xiaoquan from the Poisonous Blood Sect, considerably strong. He had sparred with her before, and she had a slight advantage in strength, but only by ten to twenty percent!

If Zhou Heng could match Fei Xiaoquan in strength, then he wouldn’t be much inferior to her! The key was that Zhou Heng was only at Initial Separation First Layer Heaven; if he reached the Third Layer, who among his peers could stand against him?

Initially, she thought his Bloodline Power was weak, and the higher his realm, the smaller his potential. Contrarily, he was becoming more demonic!

"You are quite good!" Fei Xiaoquan stated arrogantly, "Serve under me, and I guarantee you a lifetime of glory!"

"Too bad, you aren’t even worthy to be my dog!" Zhou Heng retorted mercilessly.

"How audacious!" Fei Xiaoquan’s gaze turned frosty. He wasn’t from the Cold Blue Country, but from the Poisonous Blood Sect, the main Sect in Bright Moon Country; the Cold Blue Country was just a minor branch, and he naturally looked down on these "natives."

With his insight, he could tell Zhou Heng held great secrets, hence he had approached to recruit Zhou Heng, intending to seize Zhou Heng’s opportunity. Unexpectedly, he was almost publicly insulted by Zhou Heng, how could he not be furious?

"Zhou Heng, you are very bold, wandering around after killing two of my sect members!" Fei Xiaoquan glanced at Zhou Heng, then his greedy eyes landed on An Yumei’s increasingly voluptuous and seductive body beautified by Zhou Heng, "I will kill you and then thoroughly enjoy your woman! Rest assured, with my methods, any woman will submit!"
