  Li Qingming scrutinized Huwang Xiao with a devious smile, “Not bad, brat, to be able to show that we’re tailing behind you, no question even Xiang Mingzhi lost to you. You were able to escape the last time in the Hailstone Treasure space, let's see if you'll still can run away this time. I have no time to dribble nonsense with you, immediately hand over the Hailstone Treasure, the Innumerable Fortune Kasaya, and all those treasures you cheated off Xiang Mingzhi and I could leave you a full corpse. Obviously, as the Black Warrior Institute Principal’s personal disciple, I can let you die more comfortably.”

  Ch.630

  Li Qingming wasn't worried at all about Huwang Xiao escaping. Even though the young man before him wasn’t poor, before a Tenth Order God World master like him, that meager strength was inadequate in his eyes.

  A big smile flashed across Huwang Xiao’s calm face, “Are you so sure you can get rid of me?”

  Li Qingming had a faint scathing smile on his face as he shook his mind, “Although I still can’t figure out how you managed to get away from that Hailstone Treasure space back then, this time around I’ve locked the surrounding space with a God Restricting Golden Silkthread Rope, there’s no way in hell you can escape! ” By the end of his words, Li Qingming waved his hands, as though to prove his words, and golden lights glimmered, exposing long fantastic lines of silkthread enveloping the area around them like a sizable steel cage.

  “This God Restricting Golden Silkthread Rope is an ancient treasure I stumbled upon by accident. There’s an ancient divine formation called God Restricting Spirit Lock Array inscribed on it, completely locking and separating a radius of ten li from the outside space. No matter how tragically you scream, no one outside of this space will know what is happening. Not even Highgod Realm experts can detect any abnormality beyond a hundred li.” Li Qingming’s aura grew more bloodthirsty as he stared at Huwang Xiao, adding another phrase in ridicule, “Of course, if you can eliminate me personally, you can leave this space.”

  Huwang Xiao ignored the blatant ridicule in Li Qingming’s eye, but looked interestedly at the so-called God Restricting Golden Silkthread Rope with shining eyes, praising out loud, “That is indeed a great tool for aiding robbery and murder ah! With this rope, one can even kill without fearing any repercussions on the Cloudsea Mainland!”

  Li Qingming burst out laughing madly hearing what Huwang Xiao said, “Brat, I really don’t know where your confidence comes from. You have already been forced to the finish of the road, but you are still trying to act brave!” His eyes strayed toward the golden Dragon Pearl runic symbol on Huwang Xiao’s forehead, “That golden symbol on your forehead should be some kind of ancient treasure, right? You used this historic treasure last time inside the Hailstone Treasure space to block Zhao Lufei’s strike, which offered you the opportunity to run. However, I guess that relying on your current strength, you can at most use its power only a couple of times.”

  Li Qingming’s eye become increasingly feverish with greed, his eyes staring at the fantastic symbol on Huwang Xiao’s forehead.

  Just a few years back, this Huwang Xiao was only a Second Order God Realm, yet he could already borrow the power out of this golden rune sign to withstand a Tenth Order God Realm’s attack, if he could easily get it, wouldn't he be invincible below the Highgod Realm?

  “Little brat, have you thought it over?” One of the Azure Dragon Institute Elders behind Li Qingming stared at Huwang Xiao with lofty disdain, “Your first choice, obediently give the Hailstone Treasure as well as all the treasures on you, and we’ll leave you an intact corpse. The second choice would be us acting, but you will pass away miserably.”

  Huwang Xiao shook his head, “There’s a third, and that is, I wipe out everyone and everything you lot will be mine.”

  Li Qingming and the two Elders were all briefly stunned for a second before their unrestrained laughter resounded.

  It was at the moment that all three men caught a blinding light flickering from the golden runic mark on Huwang Xiao’s forehead. In the next second, the entire locked space was filled up with majestic dragon might. Before this boundless and majestic dragon might, their breaths were stifled, nearly stopping altogether.

  So did their laughter. Their eyes dilated with fear, and blood drained from their faces as if they noticed the most terrifying existence.

  “H-Highgod Realm Divine Dragon grasp!” Li Qingming stammered, looking straight at the thousands of foot coiling dragon hovering behind Huwang Xiao.

  The divine dragon was non-e other than Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi.

  ly, in the Hailstone Treasure space, he did not have a complete confidence that he'd have the ability to kill all 6 people however now, merely killing one Li Qingming, Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi had this much confidence.

  As for both Azure Dragon Institute Elders, both were of no consequence.

  Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi’s small lake-sized eye glanced condescendingly at Li Qingming’s group of three.

  Looking at his own reflection in Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi’s cold and murderous eyes, Li Qingming was jolted back to his senses, and his first thought was-run!

  Run! The further the better, as fast as he could.

  Suddenly, a beam of bright light soared from Li Qingming’s body, transforming into individual talisman icons that combined to create a barrier oddly resembling a tortoise shell, fully wrapping Li Qingming within.

  “Golden Cicada Shell Shedding Art?!” Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi exclaimed slightly amazed viewing Li Qingming’s form.

  This Golden Cicada Shell Shedding Art was a quite a clever escaping method. Activating this method allowed a person to hide their body and aura completely, it was even capable of preventing the opponents’ spiritual sense and Godforce from locking onto them.

  But then Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi’s lips curled back in a cool smile. If it were other general Highgod World masters, they really might let Li Qingming get away with this technique. Unfortunately, Li Qingming’s opponent was him.

  Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi stretched his jaw wide, making out a thunderous dragon roar. It was akin to tens of thousands of dragons roaring, almost like crossing time and space, originating in an era long gone. It created numerous horrifying swirling hurricanes, blasting through the encompassing space.

  Li Qingming, who had just successfully concealed himself, was severely jolted out of the void, his bloodied body was filled with savage cuts and wounds from the soundwaves blasting through the void. The two Azure Dragon Elders fared far worse, being directly blasted into pieces, turning out to be a rain of blood.

  The void storm lasted for a long time before dissipating, alongside the echoes of dragon roars.

  Li Qingming laid on the enclosed space’s floor, gasping weakly, but his fearful eyes were fixed on Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi. He didn't suppose Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi would be so powerful!

  Huwang Xiao walked up, coming to a stop in front of Li Qingming with a cold sneer on his face, “Who informed you?”

  Li Qingming understood that Huwang Xiao was referring to him leaving the Dark Warrior Institute, but he snorted, “Huwang Xiao, the Azure Dragon Institute won't spare you if you dare to kill me, you better think this through carefully.”

  The coldness in Huwang Xiao’s eyes deepened. His feet crushed down on Li Qingming’s chest, and sounds of bone fragments popping and shattering sounded as well as Li Qingming’s scream of pain.

  “I think I've thought it through very carefully.” Huwang Xiao’s ridiculing expression was glaringly obvious, “But it seems you haven’t thought it through.”

  Li Qingming glowered at Huwang Xiao with ferocious eye, hatred and rage surging in his heart, erupting just like a wrathful volcano, “Huwang Xiao, don’t assume that just because you have a Highgod Realm divine dragon guarding over you, our Azure Dragon Institute won’t be able to get rid of you! When that point comes, your death will be a hundred times more tragic than mine!”

  Huwang Xiao’s expression was less than lukewarm at
Li Qingming’s threat, “Whether I will die tragically or not, I don’t know. But, I know that at this moment you’ll perish tragically.” Huwang Xiao opened up his palm, uncovering his vibrant immortal essence fire. Before Li Qingming’s baffled gaze, Huwang Xiao sent the open fire getting softly on Li Qingming’s body with a wave.

  Viewing this, Li Qingming issued a disdainful snort. This Huwang Xiao was actually ignorant to the kind of level, didn't he know a mid-level God World mater’s godflame couldn't destroy a high-levels God Realm master?

  However, before he could make a sound, his eyes abruptly widened in great horror. Within the next moment, a soul-wrenching scream originated from his throat. The immortal substance fire that got on his body experienced begun to devour him. It had been slowly traveling upward, beginning with his fingers, then it traveled to his hands, chest, and lower body.

  Regardless of how he struggled, rolled, and turned his body, Li Qingming was struggling to extricate himself from the fireplace, nor was he able to extinguish the horrifying flames.

  Huwang Xiao did not let him pass away immediately. Instead, he controlled the fire, allowing it to devour Li Qingming’s body bit by bit so that Li Qingming could watch his own body being devoured in . by inches, dying as he screamed in excruciating pain.

  It lasted more than an hour. In the final end, Li Qingming’s existence was completely erased from the world under the immortal fact fire.

  Huwang Xiao collected the God Restricting Golden Silkthread Rope and the three people’s spatial bands, placing them away in the Asura Ring.

  “Let’s go, there are people proceeding this way, and one of them is very powerful.” Suddenly, Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi’s grim tone of voice sounded as he flew back into the Dragon Pearl space in Huwang Xiao’s forehead.

  Huwang Xiao blanked for a moment, but he quickly reacted. Taking out his Mulberry Sword, he flew away at breakneck speed. Shortly after Huwang Xiao still left the place, five silhouettes attained high speed. When these five people stopped, demonic energy noticeable to the naked vision surfaced in their proximity.

  Ch.631

  Upon their arrival, all five men made quick observations of the surroundings, then under the command of the middle-aged man clad in golden brocade robe, all five flew in the direction Huwang Xiao had left earlier.

  The five pursued more than ten thousand li before stopping on an uninhabited planet.

  The eyes of the middle-aged man were sharp like an eagle as his gaze swept over the surrounding, ordering the other four: “Separate and search, that brat cannot run far!”

  “Yes, Great Ruler!” The other four respectfully complied, each picked a direction and sped off. Whereas the golden brocade robed middle-aged man himself blurred into a flicker, appearing on a tall peak on the planet. As his feet landed, the ground sunk somewhat, and then, with the mountain maximum under his ft as the guts, the mountains within 100 thousand li radius erupted like volcanoes, scorching magma glowing like fiery ember red shot out from deep underground like geysers.

  “Logically, that brat shouldn’t have the ability to avoid my Soul Lock Oculus.” Golden brocade robed middle-aged man muttered to himself as a light glimmered in his eye, “On top of that, how did those three folks from the Azure Dragon Institute go missing?”

  Not long after, the four people who left earlier returned, all of them shaking their minds, revealing the result of their pursuit. None of them managed to find any clues about Huwang Xiao’s whereabouts.

  This made the golden brocade robed man’s expression switched grim. He led the four people, making another attempt to locate Huwang Xiao, but to no avail. Only then do the band of five gave up and left.

  Soon after the five men still left, on the spot where in fact the golden brocade robed man stood earlier on the mountain peak, Huwang Xiao’s silhouette emerged.

  “Just what a scary demonic qi and whelming pressure!” Huwang Xiao exclaimed with a look of lingering apprehension on his face. If it weren’t for the Godly Mt. Xumi and Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi helping to hide all of his aura, before this fantastic brocade robed middle-aged man, he previously zero likelihood of hiding.

  “That golden brocade robed man is definitely a Highgod Realm master of the demonic beasts faction!” Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi too breathed in relief seeing that the five men got left, “Moreover, I estimate that his power, among the four galaxies’ top demonic beast clan masters, could definitely enter the very best five! Even if he isn’t your Master’s opponent, his strength is only slightly weaker.”

  Huwang Xiao nodded.

  In the four galaxies: Black Tortoise, Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Vermillion Bird, although the human race forces were powerful, the demonic beast clans were by no means weaker.

  Being able to enter the top five among the demonic beast clans in all four galaxies, one could imagine that man's terrifying strength!

  “However, with no shackles that bind me to the Dragon Pearl, I wouldn't be afraid of that golden brocade robed man.’ Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi announced confidently.

  Huwang Xiao shook his mind, “Let’s not discuss this now, let’s first get away from here, who knows if that demonic beast king will suddenly backtrack here. ” Even as he said that, Huwang Xiao acquired already taken out his Mulberry Sword, traveling off at broadband.

  Huwang Xiao was accurate along with his prediction. In less than half an hour after Huwang Xiao sped off on his sword, the golden brocade robed man came back with his four subordinates.

  For Huwang Xiao, he kept a steady flying velocity after leaving the uninhabited planet, continuing to absorb the lightning drive hidden in the deep void as he flew. When his energy depleted, he would choose an uninhabited world to rest, consuming the Three Revolutions Golden Pills to cultivate.

  One month later, Huwang Xiao’s strength, which had reached peak late-Fifth Order God World, once again improved, getting him nearer to his discovery to Sixth Order God Realm. In addition, one month of absorbing the lightning force had helped his soul become more limpid than before. ly, if Huwang Xiao’s soul resembled a grayish-white paper, now, most of the grayness was ‘washed’ away, cleansed, disclosing the white brightness underneath.

  But according to Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi, this method of using the hidden lightning force in the deep void such as a baptism to purify his spirit would require at least a hundred years to reach an optimum condition. At that point, he'd have a seventy percent chance of success in forming his godhead after achieving Tenth Order God World.

  “A hundred years and only a 70 % chance?” Huwang Xiao’s eyebrows rose to his forehead at Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi’s explanation.

  Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi harrumphed at Huwang Xiao’s doubt, “If not for your True Dragon Physique enabling you to absorb the lightning force hidden within the deep void, purifying your soul, forget one hundred years, you’d be hard pressed to touch a seventy percent chance even if you were given ten thousand years! You think it's so easy to form a godhead? If it were so, Highgod Realm experts would be overcrowding the galaxies everywhere. Exactly like that Eldest Older Apprentice-brother Liu Yun of your, he had at least ten thousand years of cultivation, right? If he forcefully makes a breakthrough attempt at this stage, his success rate would not even be fifty percent!”

  Huwang Xiao was stupefied.

  “What, cat got your tongue?” Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi taunted, “Still, your condition may not necessarily take a hundred years, when you can find some naturally born lightning treasure, there would be a chance of reducing it down to a dozen years or so. Then again, achieving complete spirit purity can only just form an average godhead.”

  Huwang Xiao ate another piece of shock pie, “Then what degree of soul purity will one need to be considered high level? Wait around, godheads have different ranks too?!”

  A lazy laugh came from Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi before he continued, “When you awoke your martial spirits at age seven, martial spirits were also divided into strong and weak, a total of fourteen grades,
no? Just the same, godheads have their own distinctions and levels, from rank one to rank ten. Above rank ten, there are even ruler rank and emperor rank. Above the emperor rank is the supreme deity godhead The supreme deity godhead is the strongest of all, also known as the lord of godheads! Under the heavens, each individual that was able to form a lord of godheads were all lauded monstrous geniuses with astonishing growth, a hegemony presence spanning across worlds! However, as far as I know, there's never been anyone from the Black Tortoise Galaxy in a position to form a lord of godheads !”

  Huwang Xiao sucked in a breath of chilly air, “Not a single person in thousands of years?!”

  Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi nodded, “That’s right, not only the Dark Tortoise Galaxy, even the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Vermillion Bird Galaxies don't have anyone who succeeded in forming that level of godhead in numerous a large number of years. A completely limpid soul, in general, could form a rank four or five godhead, which would be average. If it is a rank seven godhead, that is considered a high-rank godhead. In all four galaxies, the number of individuals who could form a godhead above rank seven is very little, the probability is one or two in 100.”

  Huwang Xiao could barely retain his calm hearing this.

  Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi’s firmness suddenly turned complacent, “My original body is a Five-clawed Golden Dragon. Cultivating in the ancient Dragon Clan’s supreme techniques, the godhead I created that year was known as the Heavenly Dragon Godhead, a rank seven godhead that borders the eighth rank.”

  Capable of forming a rank seven godhead infinitely close to rank eight, Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi indeed had the capital to feel proud!
