Chapter 1140: Chapter 1140: Blow Them All Up!!!! Chapter 1140: Chapter 1140: Blow Them All Up!!!! Another battle of life and death had been decided!


    The entire arena was dead silent. The other Hidden Dragon List talents all exhibited a trace of nervousness.


    This year’s competition was truly unprecedented! In the past, fights were stopped before a fatal blow, even when the strongest of prodigies struck, they would always leave a sliver of chance for survival, never severing all hopes completely.


    But this time, Xia Family’s Xia Ding had fallen, and now blood was to be seen!


    It was too cruel!


    Mo Shaoxin and the other five, having acknowledged the death match and vastly outnumbering Huang Xiaolong six to one, saw no interference from their families or sects backing them. After all, stepping in at this time would be an admission of cowardice and a major loss of face. Of course, no one believed there would be any reversal when six were ganging up on one. Not to mention, Mo Shaoxin and Shi Feng, these two prodigies, were both even stronger than Xia Ding.


    “Little brother, you’re really playing a big game!” Duanmu Wei, nestled amongst the array of talents, felt both nervous and a surge of adrenaline. She understood this was a battle where a grassroots challenger would rise up! Huang Xiaolong was at a disadvantage, challenging the authority, determined to unseat the so-called geniuses of old!


    Without a doubt, up to this point, Huang Xiaolong had become the protagonist of this Hidden Dragon List talent battle! Even overshadowing the other talents for the moment… including Nangong Hong!


    Huang Xiaolong stood on the stage, his expression incredibly calm.


    Mo Shaoxin, Shi Feng, and the other four, their expressions solemn, stepped onto the stage. They exchanged glances and spread out in a fan shape, semi-circling Huang Xiaolong in the center.


    The great battle was about to erupt!


    This was a fight between Hidden Dragon List talents, in line with the second round’s rules, so the person overseeing the contest couldn’t intervene.


    “Fight!” Mo Shaoxin called out sharply, while the other five Hidden Dragon List talents also braced themselves, as if facing their greatest life-long enemies!


    For a moment, these six talents exuded light beams like thunder and lightning, their Mana howling tumultuously. Traces of various cultivation techniques and ultimate moves surfaced, filled with endless mysteries.


    Wish-whoosh whoosh~~~


    The air above the stage was constantly being shredded by their sharp auras.


    The six prodigies were powering up, brewing their killer moves, no longer holding anything back, hoping to unleash their strongest strikes!


    Sand and stones were flying!


    In contrast, Huang Xiaolong was very calm, very composed. Facing the combined attack of six prodigies, he seemed as if he was dealing with mere ants.


    “Brat! Still pretending to be mysterious!” Ji Chuchen was closely watching the battle. Seeing Huang Xiaolong’s unflappable demeanor made him feel both envious and annoyed, his pupils shrinking constantly. “I can’t believe it! There’s no way you alone can withstand six opponents!”


    But to tell the truth, Huang Xiaolong’s composed attitude was impressing some spectators and even making many titans within the Bronze Hall nod in approval–setting aside everything else, this young man’s state of mind meant he’d certainly achieve great things in the future! However, today, he was likely to fall, for being too rigid often leads to breakage; he had become the target of public criticism!


    On the stage!


    The first to condense his spirit, Mana, and ultimate moves to their absolute peak was Mo Shaoxin!


    Mo Shaoxin suddenly stood straight and tall, his Mana bursting toward the sky, making him appear larger than life with an indescribable aura. He lifted his right hand, his palm sharp like an axe, shimmering with golden symbols!


    BOOM~~~!!!!!!


    With a single chop, it felt as if a mountain-splitting giant axe was descending upon Huang Xiaolong’s head!


    The power of this chop was immense, enough to split a river in two, bringing a chilling sensation of time freezing, making everything stand still!


    Mo Shaoxin was a disciple of the Hengshan Sect. At this moment, he was using the Hengshan Sect’s lethal Cultivation Technique–‘Mountain Splitting Celestial Axe.’


    Following closely, the second to make a move was Shi Feng, the son of the current Sect Master of the Songshan Sect. Although the Songshan Sect wasn’t as prominent as Shushan, Emei, and other major sects, it was nonetheless an established power, its inheritance unbroken and abundant with various killer moves and forbidden techniques.


    This time, Shi Feng was using one such forbidden technique–


    “Sword Qi Heaven Script!!!”


    Shi Feng brought his hands together, his Mana rising around him, and abruptly above his head appeared a golden book. As this book opened, countless Sword Qi surged forth, flashing violently towards Huang Xiaolong!


    The use of this forbidden technique would reduce his lifespan by more than a decade!


    Shi Feng was prepared to sacrifice his life expectancy just to slay Huang Xiaolong.


    Not to mention Huangfu Tianjiao and the other four Divine Skills Realm young talents who were going all out to assist, each wielding their flying swords to strike Huang Xiaolong from various directions.


    The combined assault of these six was dazzling, their Mana surging like tidal waves, truly a breathtaking spectacle that made one’s eyes blur and stirred the soul!


    Huang Xiaolong, in the midst of these attacks, looked as if he were a small boat amidst a storm, seemingly on the verge of capsizing. He appeared to be in grave danger!


    However–in the blink of an eye, Huang Xiaolong conjured up a ghostly hand!


    BOOM~~~~!!!!!!


    Terror without bounds, a ghastly and malevolent miasma of ghostly and corpse qi, mixed with the energy of the underworld, immediately filled the arena. The combined mana, momentum, and killing techniques of the six geniuses were scattered considerably!


    In an instant, the combined forces of these six geniuses were abruptly shattered!


    They experienced a terrifying sensation–as if each of them had been isolated, with no comrades in arms beside them, left alone to face Huang Xiaolong!


    “Not good~~!!!”


    A sense of alarm suddenly surged in the hearts of the six.


    A ghostly hand, as dark as the tide, reached out directly from within Huang Xiaolong’s body!


    Wrapped around this dark hand were innumerable ghost kings, all screeching, howling, bloodthirsty, and clamoring for lives–


    “Give me your life!”


    “I died such a miserable death!”


    “Yang qi! I want to devour thousands of miles of yang qi from the human world! I am the king of myriad ghosts!”


    …


    This ghostly hand changed infinitely, containing the resentful thoughts of countless ghost kings, directly shattering people’s spirits!


    In a flash, Huang Xiaolong transformed into King Yan, the Yin Emperor, controlling the underworld, commanding life and death–as if he possessed immense authority, ruling over a thousand souls and myriad ghosts of the underworld, ready to conquer wildly and take over the living realm to rewrite the order and the rules!


    Bang~~ Bang~~ Bang~~~!


    The ghostly hand blasted apart every attack from the six aspiring dragon list geniuses.


    Then, with another sweep, Mo Shaoxin, Shi Feng, and others’ bodies, as fragile as paper mache, burst apart one after another!


    The sky filled with fragments of flesh and blood, fluttering downwards. The ghost kings attached to the ghostly hand extended their crimson, hideous tongues, voraciously snatching up pieces of the corpses and devouring them.


    Even the souls of Mo Shaoxin, Shi Feng, and the others, as soon as they attempted to escape, were sucked in and chewed up.


    Death!


    These six geniuses, brimming with life just moments before, were now completely dead, their spirits and forms extinguished.


    The scene was too horrifying for words!


    “Ah~~~~!!!!! My son! Feng’er! My son dying at the hands of this wicked beast! Ah! My son was destined to become an immortal, the backbone of our Songshan Sect! Why did he have to die young! Why! Ah, the injustice!”


    Within a hovering bronze great hall in the void, a wail as heartbreaking as the mourning of bereaved parents erupted–that was the voice of the current Sect Master of the Songshan Sect, Shi Feng’s father.


    A tremendous aura burst forth as if the Sect Master of the Songshan Sect was about to descend directly onto the arena and reduce Huang Xiaolong to dust. He was heartbroken; his own son had died just like that, a son with so much potential, dying a wrongful death! He had thought it would be a conclusive fight with six against one, but now, the tables had turned disastrously!


    Simultaneously, the higher-ups of the Hengshan Sect, relatives of Huangfu Tianjiao, the Child of Falling Snow, and others, also let loose terrible howls of agony.


    Chaos reigned on the spectator platform.


    “Silence~~~!!!!!!”


    That desolate, ancient voice, echoing through eternity, rang out once more, its majesty suppressing all directions.


    The uproar was subdued by his command.


    Huang Xiaolong, having slaughtered six people, retracted the ghostly hand. The ghastly qi on the stage quickly dispersed, and he stood unmoving, with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile on his lips, utterly unconcerned, his gaze sweeping across the entire field.


    Even the geniuses on the Hidden Dragon List present on the spectator platform, upon making eye contact with Huang Xiaolong, felt as if they’d been struck by lightning, hastily diverting their eyes, not daring to look directly at Huang Xiaolong.


    “This man is ferocious! An unparalleled fiend! His means are so brutally vicious, it’s simply outrageous!!!! You must not provoke him! One cannot afford to provoke this person!”


    Many people began to develop a fear of Huang Xiaolong in their hearts.


    From someone who was once despised, Huang Xiaolong had become someone to be feared, all by taking the lives of genius after genius!

    Huang Xiaolong’s gaze finally rested on Ji Chuchen.


    At that moment, even Ji Chuchen’s supremely arrogant face was somewhat distorted, his complexion not looking too good. His pupils contracted repeatedly, and it was unclear what he was thinking about.


    “Ji Chuchen, ranked sixth on the Hidden Dragon List, I now issue you a challenge once again. Heh, do you dare to fight?” Huang Xiaolong sneered. “The same rules apply–a fight to the death. If you don’t dare to fight, then give up your ranking. Heh heh~~ To think you all hesitated earlier when I let you eight join forces, but now, after I’ve defeated you one by one, do you regret it?”


    Huang Xiaolong looked imperiously upon the world, like a demonic emperor!
