Chapter 182 Chase (1/2)
Saint Remains Domain.
Countless geniuses gazed at the majestic Saint mountain inside the Saint tower. They were naturally also able to see the green flood that poured down from the endless stone steps.
Even from so far away, they could still clearly feel its dreadful power. Under the surging green flood, the geniuses within were akin to ants...
”Wu Huang, Ye Ming, Li Chunjun and the rest are pretty amazing. Can't believe that they've adapted so quickly and have already begun their steady advance forward.”
”As expected of these apex level geniuses. There is clearly a gap between them and the others.”
Many whispers could be heard. Numerous individuals also noticed Zhou Yuan, whom was dead last. After all, his performance in the Saint Remains Domain had been extremely attention grabbing.
”What's up with Zhou Yuan? To think that's he's fallen to last place.”
”Zhou Yuan is only at the Heaven Gate stage. His explosive power is pretty good, but his Genesis Qi cultivation is unable to match the others. That's why his performance is so lackl.u.s.tre.”
”From the looks of it, it will not be long before he is washed out of the tower and loses his qualifications…”
”It's already amazing for him to have reached this stage.”
Several individuals were gloating at Zhou Yuan's performance. They had been unable to enter the Saint tower to vie for the blessing within, and naturally felt a little better seeing someone struggle inside.
...
Outside the Saint Remains Domain.
The Sacred Palace envoy, Zhao Pan, watched the first group, his eyes staying on Wu Huang in particular as a satisfied smile surfaced on his face.
”Good. Wu Huang, continue bravely advance towards the peak in this manner. If you want to join the Sacred Palace, you'll have to crush all the other geniuses and become the strongest one!.”
With a slight smile on his face, Zhao Pan's gaze s.h.i.+fted downwards a little, landing on the figure at the back of the pack. The corners of his lips immediately lifted slightly in a mocking manner.
”What a useless person, he's unworthy of being Wu Huang's foe.”
He secretly shook his head.
”This brat… what the heck is he doing?” The Cangxuan Sect envoy, Mu Wuji, was gently tapping his pipe, a frown on his face as he watched Zhou Yuan's figure.
Although it was true that one needed to rely on one's Genesis Qi to resist the green flood, Mu Wuji did not believe that this was where Zhou Yuan would be stopped in his tracks.
”Zhou Yuan ah Zhou Yuan, that old mister thinks so highly of you, so you'd better buck up. Or how am I going to explain things when I return?” Mu Wuji sucked on his pipe as smoke drifted out from his nose, his expression turning solemn within the rising smoke.
”Oh?”
Almost immediately after however, Mu Wuji's eyes suddenly focused. At the same time, the other five envoys also gasped softly.
All of their sharp eyes had seen powerful gold Genesis Qi suddenly erupt from Zhou Yuan's body at this moment. The strength of this Genesis Qi was in no way weaker than those geniuses who had stepped into the Alpha-Origin stage!
Mu Wuji's eyes brightened as he cursed with a grin, ”Stinking brat, to think that he was acting weak.”
However, he too did not know that Zhou Yuan had no such intentions. It was purely Yaoyao's disappearance that made him lose himself for a while, resulting in him being pushed to the last spot by the green flood.
”Kid, show me your true capabilities. Let's see why that old mister has so highly recommended you…”
...
Rumble!
On a stone step, dark gold Genesis Qi spouted out from Zhou Yuan's body like an erupting volcano. Along with it came a tremendous power that flowed throughout his body and into his limbs.
Although Zhou Yuan was currently at the mid Heaven Gate stage, with regards to the power and abundance of Genesis Qi, he would not falter even when directly facing a true Alpha-Origin expert.
After all, his Genesis Qi had been able to reach a height of over 400 feet when he reached the Heaven Gate stage, a height that could match numerous advance Heaven Gate pract.i.tioners.
With his blood-red Qi Dwelling, the Omni Python Qi and the steps he had taken in his cultivation since then, the current him would not fear a true Alpha-Origin even in a head-on clash of Genesis Qi.
Boom!
Dark gold Genesis Qi roared around Zhou Yuan. The green flood charged towards him again, but a foot long crack was torn open within it by the dark gold Genesis Qi.
Dong!
Zhou Yuan took a sudden step forward as his figure rapidly shot forth.
Thump thump thump!
The green flood before him was rapidly ripped apart, a m.u.f.fled thump echoing each time Genesis Qi smashed into Genesis Qi. Under countless shocked gazes, Zhou Yuan's feet crossed stair after stair as he swiftly dashed upwards.
”So fast!”
Countless cries of surprise erupted in the Saint Remains Domain. In their eyes, Zhou Yuan seemed to have transformed into a flash of dark gold light, breaking through layer after layer of the green flood as he continuously pa.s.sed the geniuses in front of him.
