“Yin Hao, let me show you the martial techniques I’ve mastered while traveling in the outside world.”
Huo Zhang, his hands shaped like dragon claws, attacked Yin Hao.
“Child’s play.”
Yin Hao also used a martial technique, and as the two Great Accomplishment Immortal Emperors clashed with fist and claw, space vibrated and True Qi exploded.
The two moved so swiftly that even Daluo Golden Immortals couldn’t clearly make out their figures.
“Is this the strength of a Great Accomplishment Immortal Emperor?”
Lu Changsheng struggled to keep up with the leaders of the Candle Dragon Clan and realized the gap between himself and a Great Accomplishment Immortal Emperor.
For every one of the nine realms of Immortal Emperors, one’s strength sees a tremendous boost.
“Myriad Dragons Subdue Spirit!”
As Huo Zhang and Yin Hao fought to a stalemate, Huo Zhang suddenly changed his cultivation technique. True Qi morphed into myriad Candle Dragons, towering above and suppressing Yin Hao!
Any single True Qi Candle Dragon was more than enough to kill a Loose Immortal with ease.
A myriad of Candle Dragons, all suppressing Yin Hao alone!
Yin Hao spread his hands, desperately holding off the might of the myriad Candle Dragons, sweat beading on his forehead, “What cultivation technique is this?”
“As I said, I have traveled the outside world for many years, sparring with many human experts, and my understanding of the Great Dao has already surpassed yours.”
Huo Zhang’s white hair fluttered as he exerted his full strength, the myriad spirit dragons pressed down, and Yin Hao’s body steadily sank.
If things continued like this, Yin Hao might be suppressed by Huo Zhang into the depths of the earth.
“Leader is mighty!”
The clan members of the Red Pupil Tribe cheered unceasingly.
With a slight edge in strength over Yin Hao, Huo Zhang just needed to defeat his opponent to become the next Clan Leader of the Candle Dragon Clan.
A vicious light flickered in Yin Hao’s eyes. He could not afford to lose the position of Clan Leader at any cost.
Yin Hao swallowed a Demon Pill, and the pill’s immense spiritual power filled him, reaching every corner of his viscera. Yin Hao’s eyes turned bloodshot as his energy surged.
With a swipe of his claw, Yin Hao shattered the True Qi dragons.
“What?”
Huo Zhang was taken aback.
He had not anticipated such a sudden surge in Yin Hao’s strength, almost as if he had ascended to a higher realm.
“The position of Clan Leader belongs to our Silver Pupil Tribe! Hah!”
Yin Hao roared, his claws tearing through the myriad spirit dragons, and finally landed a blow on Huo Zhang.
With that claw, amid the Dragon Yuan True Qi and enveloped with rolling Demonic Qi, he struck Huo Zhang.
Huo Zhang fell like a meteor from the sky and struck the ground, creating an abyssal crater.
“Leader!”
The clan members of the Red Pupil Tribe cried out in alarm as they witnessed their leader being heavily injured.
Members of Tai Hua Holy Land and Guanghan Holy Land both wore grave expressions.
It was clear that Yin Hao had used a Demon Sects’ elixir, which could enhance his strength suddenly by stimulating his potential; however, the side effects were not to be underestimated.
The use of a Demon Sects’ sacred medicine by the Silver Pupil Tribe’s leader likely involved a connection to the Blood Sea Palace.
“Yin Hao, you have turned to the Demon Sects and used their sacred medicine to win—this victory is not honorable.”
Huo Zhang burst out from the ground, wiping the fresh blood from his lips, not willing to accept defeat by Yin Hao in such a manner.
His true strength was superior to Yin Hao’s, but he would never be satisfied if Yin Hao won through such methods.
“You Silver Pupil Tribe are taking things too far. The selection of the Clan Leader should be fair and just!”
“I propose that we disqualify the Silver Pupil Tribe!”
The Red Pupil Tribe’s clan members came forward to defend their leader.
“Indeed, the Silver Pupil Tribe is in the wrong here.”
The Clan Leader of the Golden Pupil Sector also shook his head, it was clear to the discerning that Yin Hao had nearly cheated, only able to defeat Huo Zhang by relying on an external object, and furthermore, it was a Demon Sects’ sacred medicine.
Yin Hao, however, was indifferent, coldly scanning his surroundings, “Only the strong can lead the Candle Dragon Clan. No matter what means are used, to win is to win. Huo Zhang, you’re not vicious enough, you don’t have what it takes to lead the Candle Dragon Clan.”
The Clan Leaders of the Blue Pupil Sect, Purple Pupil Sect, and Gray Pupil Sect nodded, their members, seeing their leaders did not object, dared not say anything.
Huo Zhang watched this, his heart skipped a beat, aware that these three tribal leaders were very likely bribed by Yin Hao, siding with him.
The leaders of the Black Pupil Sect and Yellow Pupil Sect seemed hesitant, apart from his own Red Pupil Tribe and the Golden Pupil Sector leader who supported him.
“Our Candle Dragon Clan has always invited members from Guanghan Holy Land to supervise the selection of the Clan Leader to prevent incidents like today’s. The Silver Pupil Tribe’s Yin Hao is devoid of martial virtue, and he is not worthy of being the Clan Leader!” Huo Zhang’s voice was deep and resolute.
The Black Pupil Sect and Yellow Pupil Sect were in an uproar, these neutral tribes held reservations about Yin Hao violating traditions.
“The victor reigns as king, those who follow me prosper, those against me perish! Who dares to disagree?”
Yin Hao swept his gaze over the Clan Leaders of the Black Pupil Sect and the Yellow Pupil Sect, who visibly struggled, hesitating whether to support Huo Zhang.
Yin Hao’s blatant use of a Demon Sects’ sacred medicine during the election suggests he has come prepared.
If Yin Hao becomes the Clan Leader, he will surely settle scores with those who did not support him.
At that moment, Jin Yun Immortal Fairy of Guanghan Holy Land spoke up, “Our Guanghan Holy Land has been supervising the selection of the Candle Dragon Clan’s Leader for over a hundred million years. Today, you collude with the Demon Sects and seek to ascend through illegitimate means, we cannot approve.”
Jin Yun Immortal Fairy gestured with her right hand, and the Immortal Sword behind her soared into the sky, Sword Qi reaching up to the Nine Heavens!
This Immortal Sword was an Emperor Soldier of superior quality!
An Emperor Soldier-grade Immortal Sword, with Sword Qi that stretched for ninety thousand miles, commanding and formidable, left every member of the eight tribes of the Candle Dragon Clan utterly moved.
After all, Guanghan Holy Land is an Ancient Holy Land with an incredible foundation.
Jin Yun Immortal Fairy was not simply an invited guest to supervise the Clan Leader’s election but also the younger martial sister of the Palace Master of Guanghan Palace.
At the least, Jin Yun Immortal Fairy’s strength was not inferior to any Clan Leader of the Candle Dragon Clan, not to Huo Zhang, nor Yin Hao!
