Chapter 149: Chapter 111: Asking the Grandmaster with All Things_2
Mountain Map!
It was as if a towering mountain peak, majestic and beautiful, appeared behind Li Hao, suppressing the surroundings and giving his body a sense of stability, immovable and unshakable!
“Hmph!”
Li Tian Gang’s divine soul had a cold expression, and although his heart was shocked, his steps did not stop. What was a mountain to him? In the lands of Northern Yan, he had slain countless demons. If there were demons, he’d slay demons; if there were mountains, he’d level mountains!
Everything would be crushed under his feet!
But just then, a sudden low roar, like that of a cow, echoed.
A dark shadow emerged from behind Li Hao, its shape like a mixture of a tiger and an ox with wings on its back, landing on the Mountain Map.
Its eyes were fierce and bloodthirsty, its gaze cruel and gloomy, staring intently at Li Tian Gang, emitting an ancient murderous aura and ferocity.
This was a monstrous beast from the Great Wilderness Heaven, Qiong Qi!
Its divine might was as if a true monster beast had descended!
Li Tian Gang’s face changed as the blazing divine flames on his divine sword were forced to dissipate, revealing only the shiny blade.
With three kinds of pressure, together with the earlier Tiger Press, the young man standing in the midst of the battlefield had his hair moving without wind, surrounded by beasts as if he were the king of the mountains, exuding a terrifying power and wildness!
Even the Grandmaster Li Tian Gang’s divine soul couldn’t help but stop, slightly dazed by the terrifying pressure, for even a grandmaster would have to bow in its presence!
Was this his own son?
The Fifteen Li Realm, able to battle grandmasters!
Such talent was so astounding that it could be considered peerless, a source of pride.
But, his nature was wild and difficult to tame!
Li Tian Gang’s gaze turned icy again, slightly regretting in his heart. Perhaps he should have taken Li Hao with him from the start, taken him to Northern Yan. Even if it had been more dangerous, to keep him close and watch over him himself, he might not have developed such wildness.
Otherwise, with such talent, how could he not shine brightly upon the world?
“Very good, but you’ve chosen the wrong path!”
Li Tian Gang took a deep breath. As his eyes opened and closed, an entrancing divine light burst forth.
He no longer showed mercy, his divine soul fiercely gripped the blade, unleashing an extremely tyrannical slash!
The terrifying blade force emerged, as if it were going to split the entire Green Lotus Courtyard and even the Divine General Mansion apart!
Such might was several times more ferocious than the Endless Sea swordsmanship previously displayed by Li Hao.
“Li Tian Gang!”
Li Qingzheng couldn’t help but change color, shouting angrily.
But Li Tian Gang, as if deaf to the outcry, aimed the blade directly at Li Hao’s divine soul.
The killing intent within the blade, like millennium-old ice, carried the power to split the heavens and the earth, unstoppable.
Li Hao’s face changed drastically, and even though he had the properties of three famous paintings to resist the opponent’s divine might, he couldn’t block this slash!
Without any hesitation, Li Hao swiftly retracted his divine soul into his body, united soul and body, and employed his control of objects power to dodge at full speed.
His body suddenly became ten times lighter. With the enhancements of the Thousand Mountains Birds Flying Painting and the Snow Mountain Spirit Fox Painting, his movement speed surged dramatically.
Yet, the slash was fierce, and even as Li Hao did his utmost to dodge, he was still struck; the opponent had suddenly increased speed while he was trying to evade!
With a spluttering sound, Li Hao spat out blood, his body flying backward, tumbling like a broken sack and only stopping after crashing through several walls of the courtyard.
The house servants and maids within the courtyard all stood dumbstruck watching Li Hao rolling inside.
In the midst of the dust, the young man’s figure, coughing blood in a disheveled state, struggled to rise.
Without pausing, Li Hao rushed at full speed towards the outside of the Divine General Mansion.
Although his heart was filled with extreme anger, the difference in realm was simply too vast. Staying here would result in more than just injuries!
“Where do you think you’re going!”
A roar sounded, and Li Tian Gang’s figure, like a burning divine light meteor, pursued.
Li Hao did not turn his head, unleashing his control of objects power at full speed, fleeing from the mansion.
His controlling speed was forty li in a single breath, and now, activating all his main meridians and releasing the power of the Yin and Yang Dual Pulse, his speed surged further by several li.
This was far beyond the speed of the Fifteen Li Realm, but the whooshing sound from behind was even faster!
Li Tian Gang had once wielded the True Dragon authority, receiving enhancements from various realms in the ancestral shrine. Plus, being in the Three Immortal Realms, though he had suffered injuries that caused a brief fall, he was still far beyond what the Fifteen Li Realm could compare to.
With a loud thud, a palm strike came flying.
Li Hao was barely out of the Divine General Mansion when he was struck from midair and slammed hard onto a building on the street.
Li Hao climbed out from the scattered ruins of the building, with many nearby people injured from the shockwave, but at that moment, he had no time to care about these matters.
However, as he rose, Li Hao saw a father-and-son figure outside the building’s wreckage.
Zhou Zheng and his father.
Li Hao trembled slightly, his mind involuntarily recalling the angry shout he had heard before class:
“…I know my son is a person, an upright and proper person, not a mouse that spoils a whole pot of porridge!”
“…Just because he is not suited for martial arts doesn’t mean he’s unfit to be a human!!”
“Although my son may not be highly talented, he is kind-hearted. Even if he is only in the Power Passage Realm, he is my pride. What right do you have to insult him so?!”
Li Hao spit out a bit of fresh blood, his eyes showing a self-mocking look.
Strange, why do I remember so much, so clearly, from a stranger’s words?
Did I perhaps harbor any expectations deep down?
Is it the power of bloodlines, or is it the idea instilled by society that father and son should have a deep bond?
Or is it the gratitude for the slaying of demons in my youth that loosened my heart?
I was truly touched and grateful for the grace I received.
Who would have expected that it would cause me such wounds today?
At this moment, a ferocious palm wind descended from above, as if it wanted to shatter the entire earth.
Li Hao looked up, the wind lashing his face, and as he saw the divine palm above, he saw those angry, icy eyes behind it and couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh.
