Dragon King's Son-In-Law

by Dragon King

  However, Hao Ren who was flying on his sword energies was in a passive situation.

  Hua! Hua…

  Zhao Kuo swirled his heavy tri-point double-edge sword like a windmill.

  In the face of Zhao Kuo’s Killing Tribulation, Hao Ren’s 160 sword energies were scattered easily.

  Dang! Dang… Zhao Kuo’s 320 sword energies followed him like shadows as he struck his tri-point double-edge sword toward Hao Ren’s sword energies, and Zhao Kuo could change positions in the high sky by hitting his weapon against his sword energies.

  Without a flight dharma treasure or having to fly on his sword energies, Zhao Kuo didn’t fall to the ground. In addition, Hao Ren couldn’t escape from him!

  Like a ball, Hao Ren was chased by Zhao Kuo from east to west, and then from west to south.

  The 160 sword energies barely guarded Hao Ren’s body, and he couldn’t fight back at all!

  Bang! Zhao Kuo’s tri-point double-edge sword scattered Hao Ren’s 160 sword energies again.

  However, the scattered 160 sword energies condensed back together immediately like bees.

  “Kid, surrender!” Zhao Kuo hacked toward Hao Ren and yelled in a deep voice.

  “I still have one breath left in me!” Hao Ren yelled.

  Bang! Hao Ren’s 160 sword energies were scattered again.

  In such a fierce competition, Hao Ren had no time to organize and use his sword arrays, and Zhao Kuo wasn’t planning to fight Hao Ren with sword energies as well, knowing that Hao Ren’s sword arrays were stronger than his.

  He would beat Hao Ren to submission with his Killing Tribulation, so that latter would know the great power of Zi’s Third Uncle and the Killing Tribulation and wouldn’t dare to bully Zi anymore!

  As Zhao Kuo and Hao Ren battled in the sky, the cultivators around the ruined arenas had all kinds of emotions on their faces. Most of them were astonished by the fact that the match between a Gen-level cultivator and a Dui-level cultivator was even fiercer than a battle between two Xun-level cultivators.

  “Good! Kill each other!” Oldman Zeng stood beside the arena and said in satisfaction while stroking his beard.

  The moment he murmured those words, dozens of sword energies from the battle shot toward him swiftly!

  Hurriedly, Oldman Zeng raised his arms to block them but failed. With a thud, he fell to the ground. Although his aura was on the level of Qian-level, his real strength was only at Dui-level.

  “Sorry! It was an accident!” With the Killing Tribulation in his hand, Zhao Kuo yelled while he chased Hao Ren in the battle.

  Oldman Zeng struggled up and was greatly disgraced as the old dragon king of the West Ocean Dragon Palace.

  He was about to say something to save his face when Zhao Kuo’s sword energies collided with Hao Ren’s, and dozens of sword energies flew toward him again.

  Prepared, the 12 elders of West Ocean immediately stood before Oldman Zeng to protect him.

  However, the sword energies collided with each other again on the way and changed their direction, shooting toward Zeng Yitao!

  Two elders rushed over to block them and were sent flying by half a meter.

  “The weapons are blind. Be careful, everyone!” Zhao Kuo yelled again.

  “Ok!”

  Many cultivators outside of the arenas yelled at the same time.

  Their responses weren’t just an answer to Zhao Kuo’s warning, but also a subtle way to express their satisfaction with the ‘accidents’.

  After all, Oldman Zeng’s arrogant appearance with the elders of West Ocean brought resentment to the cultivators in the area.

  Therefore, when the bold Zhao Kuo embarrassed the West Ocean Dragon Palace twice in the ‘accidents’, it gave the crowd great satisfaction.

  “Well done! Kid!” Zhao Kuo returned his gaze to Hao Ren and said.

  “He deserved it!” Hao Ren answered while he dodged Zhao Kuo’s tri-point double-edge sword.

  Among the dozens of sword energies, some came from Hao Ren!

  While they were battling fiercely, they heard Oldman Zeng’s gloating words and immediately turned the sword energies at him.

  They coordinated well even though they were in a fierce fight!

  Looking at the agile sword energies, Oldman Zeng didn’t dare to utter another word at the sideline of the arena. His face turned from livid to red while his body shivered violently with pent-up rage.

  “Surrender!” Zhao Kuo shattered a patch of ground with his tri-point double-edge sword before leaping up into the air again.

  Hao Ren immediately tried to block it but fell for ten meters!

  Dang!

  Zhao Kuo hacked at him again with the tri-point double-edge sword.

  Having nowhere to dodge, Hao Ren was forced down another ten meters!

  Dang!

  Zhao Kuo repeated his attack.

  Hao Ren’s body dropped 20 meters, and the shocks his body received messed up his nature essence, making it hard for him to condense his sword energies.

  If his body was not tempered by heavenly lightning, he would have been ripped apart by Zhao Kuo’s attacks even if the 160 sword energies protected him.

  Despite all this, Zhao Kuo’s tri-point double-edge sword shattered his sword energies and hacked onto his shoulder, opening his old wound.

  As blood gushed out from his shoulder, Zhao Kuo hacked toward him again with his tri-point double-edge sword!

  Dang!

  The sword energy’s Hao Ren condensed with great difficulty were scattered again.

  Zhao Kuo’s intention was clear; it was to beat Hao Ren to the ground!

  Seeing the match entering this stage, the viewing cultivators all had their hearts in their throats. They shivered lightly as if Zhao Kuo’s tri-point double-edge sword hit their bodies.

  Some high-leveled cultivators wondered if they could withstand Zhao Kuo’s fierce attacks and shook their heads afterward.

  Dang!

  It was another vicious swing of the sword.

  Not able to remain standing, Hao Ren’s body almost touched the ground with his face down!

  “Surrender, and I’ll make you lose gracefully!” Zhao Kuo said while swinging the tri-point double-edge sword.

  “I haven’t lost!” Hao Ren yelled.

  “You are still stubborn! I’ll make you surrender!” Zhao Kuo moved his hands to the end of the handle of his sword and drew the biggest arc in the air before striking toward Hao Ren’s back.

  If it hit, Hao Ren would drop to the ground face down instantly!

  Dang! Dang… Hao Ren’s sword energies shot out together.

  Bang! The Killing Tribulation in Zhao Kuo’s hands suddenly exploded!

  The Killing Tribulation that was very heavy and sturdy suddenly shattered.

  Without the support of his weapon, Zhao Kuo lost his balance and fell!

  Everyone was dumbfounded.

  Hao Ren hadn’t had the strength to fight back, but Zhao Kuo’s tri-point double-edge sword broke!

  Swoosh! Hao Ren’s body flew five meters forward, and he found the balance.

  Since Zhao Kuo’s weapon was made of water-elemental materials, Hao Ren purposefully increased his earth-elemental sword energies and hit the same location on the sword.

  Zhao Kuo’s movements with the tri-point double-edge sword were swift, but Hao Ren’s sword energies were faster. During each collision, they hit the same spot on the tri-point double-edge sword with accuracy!

  Among the five elements, earth countered water.

  After hundreds of collisions, Hao Ren finally shattered the water-elemental tri-point double-edge sword with his sword energies!

  Without the support of the tri-point double-edge sword, Zhao Kuo start dropping to the ground in a straight line!

  Hao Ren learned the flying sword technique from Fifth Heaven, but Zhao Kuo never liked flight dharma treasures and flew around with his Qian-level nature essence. Therefore, that was why he couldn’t fly on his sword energies.


  Panting, Hao Ren watched Zhao Kuo fall as he felt exhausted all over, and the dragon core in his body cracked.

  At his current state, he couldn’t recover to his full strength even if he took elixir pills

  Zhao Kuo fell straight to the ground, but the moment before his head crashed into the ground, the black dragon tattoo on his chest suddenly began to swim around his body!

  Roar! Zhao Kuo turned into a black dragon!

  “Damn! He can do this?!” Hao Ren immediately flew back on his sword energies.

  426 Slaying the Dragon

  After turning into a black dragon, Zhao Kuo could naturally fly. He was determined to win the match!

  As long as he didn’t fall to the ground, he didn’t lose the match! After all, the rules for the combat exams at the Dragon God Shrine didn’t prohibit transforming into dragons.

  In the previous matches, the cultivators didn’t turn into dragons despite the fierceness of the matches. That was because they couldn’t use their powerful techniques and had to compete with physical strength only. Besides, the dragon cultivators usually wouldn’t want to turn into their dragon forms unless they were in deadly danger.

  Zhao Kuo’s transformation into a dragon at this moment surpassed everyone’s expectation.

  “Third Uncle, you are cheating!” Zhao Yanzi blurted out as she stood on the sideline of the arena.

  After all, only the cultivators above Dui-level could transform into dragons. At Dui-level, dragon cores would have enough unlocked openings, which provided the necessary nature essence for the dragon cultivators to transform into dragons.

  However, Hao Ren was only at Gen-level.

  Boom! While everyone was looking at Zhao Kuo’s magnificent black dragon form in astonishment, Hao Ren suddenly shed his blue robe and became a small silver dragon!

  “What… is this!”

  Everyone including Oldman Zeng was stupefied.

  After all, transforming into a dragon at Gen-level was beyond common senses!

  Zhao Kuo, who was about to press Hao Ren to the ground with his claws, paused in the air in astonishment as well.

  However, Hao Ren didn’t hesitate and flew up with a sway of his body!

  He was in high spirit while he battled with Zhao Kuo. After seeing the latter transforming into a dragon, he immediately turned into a dragon as well!

  Transforming into the dragon form consumed a great deal of nature essence and would cause some damage to the body, and that was why the dragon cultivators rarely did it.

  Hao Ren forced himself into the dragon form at only Gen-level, thus causing greater damage to his body!

  While the audience was still in shock, the small silver dragon and the black dragon began battling in the high sky above the arena!

  Both Zhao Kuo, the black dragon, and Hao Ren, the silver dragon, were hornless; they were known as Chi Dragons.

  Although the body of the silver dragon was only one-fourth to one-third the size of the black dragon and looked weaker, it still had a length of more than 100 meters.

  Hao Ren’s 320 sword energies were suddenly released.

  Zhao Kuo’s 640 sword energies also appeared!

  Bang!

  Hao Ren released an aura and created another 320 sword energies, increasing the number of his sword energies to 640, the same as Zhao Kuo’s!

  Wow! The audience member looked up and exclaimed in astonishment like mortals.

  Zhao Kuo and Hao Ren each had 640 sword energies which encircled their dragon forms with mysterious colors.

  The sword energies were their nature essence. Even in dragon forms, Zhao Kuo and Hao Ren, who cultivated the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll, didn’t need any dharma treasures to use their techniques!

  Although Hao Ren’s dragon form was smaller than Zhao Kuo’s, his body looked heavier with the 640 sword energies encircling him.

  Clap! Clap… Before the two dragons got close, their sword energies began to collide with each other fiercely.

  The 1280 sword energies traveled with each other.

  Riding on the sword energies, Hao Ren’s speed was greater than Zhao Kuo’s.

  The small silver dragon shot up into the high sky in a straight line, and the black dragon followed closely.

  Suddenly, the silver dragon paused in the sky.

  Zhao Kuo was about to strike his claws onto Hao Ren, but he suddenly realized that he was trapped.

  The 640 sword energies formed the Four Gates Base Guard Array Formation!

  The dense sword energies formed four square arrays in four directions.

  Zhao Kuo, who was flying up to chase Hao Ren, had the middle portion of his body trapped in the center of the array!

  The sword array was activated!

  The 640 sword energies instantly closed!

  Zhao Kuo tried to flee, but his dragon form was hundreds of meters long. Instantly, he felt great pain in his middle section!

  The sword energies hacked into Zhao Kuo’s dragon form while the five-elemental sword energies connected and became unbreakable!

  At only mid-tier Gen-level, Hao Ren’s sword array was quite weak when he forced himself to activate the 640 sword energies. Otherwise, this attack would have cut Zhao Kuo into two!

  Chi Dragons were the weakest dragons, and they had no hard scales on their bodies. Thus, the sword energies all cut into Zhao Kuo’s body!

  Slaying the dragon!

  “Roar!” Zhao Kuo roared, almost shattering the only remaining stone pillar in the arena.

  “Third Uncle!” Zhao Yanzi yelled immediately, feeling hurt for Zhao Kuo.

  Black blood oozed from Zhao Kuo’s dragon form.

  The five-elemental sword energies stabbed into Zhao Kuo’s dragon form from four directions with doubled power. They buzzed and interacted with each other, almost cutting off Zhao Kuo’s supply of nature essence.

  Even though the watching cultivators had never experienced the sword arrays, they knew that this sword array formation was of extraordinary power.

  Bang! Zhao Kuo’s dragon form dropped from the sky, sending countless debris flying.

  The sword array formation built by Hao Ren’s 640 sword energies struck down a black dragon! The cultivators in the audience were all stunned.

  Oldman Zeng of the West Ocean Dragon Palace was dumbfounded as well.

  He thought Zhao Kuo’s failure in the Heavenly Tribulation and the drop to Dui-level was great news for the West Ocean Dragon Palace, but he now realized that the previously insignificant Hao Ren was even more powerful than Zhao Kuo!

  Swoosh! Swoosh! Two low-leveled cultivators who had been looking up at the high sky suddenly realized that their robes were gone.

  While they were panicking, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili flew up into the high sky and put the robes on Hao Ren from the front and the back.

  Returning to his human form, Hao Ren landed on the stone pillar in the arena with steady feet.

  “Ren Yin is the winner,” Qin Shaoyang stood up and said reluctantly.

  He lifted his hand, and the identity token of Yi Mao which had fallen flew into his hand and instantly turned black.

  “Gongzi, this is yours!” Lu Lili picked up Hao Ren’s identity token from the ground in the distance and handed it to him.

  Premier Xia, who had been standing beside Zhao Guang, rushed into the arena and took out a sheet of silk from his storage space and spread it across Zhao Kuo’s wounded body before yelling anxiously, “Third Lord! Third Lord!”

  “Grunt…” Zhao Kuo returned to his human form and spat out half a mouthful of blood.

  “Third Uncle…” Zhao Yanzi rushed to Zhao Kuo’s side, crying.

  “Hehehe… Your third uncle can’t do it…” Zhao Kuo looked at Zhao Yanzi with a forced smile.

  “Third Uncle, don’t die!” Zhao Yanzi picked up Zhao Kuo’s rough hand while tears fell from her cheeks.

  Squatting by Zhao Kuo’s side, Premier Xia choked at Zhao Yanzi’s words.

  “Third Lord even survi
ved the Heavenly Tribulation; how could he die of Fuma’s sword array?” he thought.

  “Princess, Third Lord meant that he couldn’t beat Fuma,” Premier Xia whispered to Zhao Yanzi.

  “Oh! Oh… You meant that…” Zhao Yanzi immediately turned her gaze to Zhao Kuo and said, “Third Uncle, you are the most powerful man in my heart! Always!”

  “Hehe… I wanted to teach that kid a lesson for you…”

  “You don’t have to do that, Third Uncle! I can teach him a lesson myself!” Zhao Yanzi stood up abruptly.

  “Hao Ren, I won’t forgive you for wounding Third Uncle this bad!”

  She was about to walk to Hao Ren who was standing on the stone pillar, but Hao Ren pointed his finger at Qin Shaoyang and said coldly, “Examiner Qin, I want to challenge you!”

  Wow! The audience was shocked.

  427 Black Dragon Spike

  Shocked, Qin Shaoyang looked at Hao Ren and wondered if his ears were playing tricks on him.

  However, Hao Ren was still pointing at him while standing on the stone pillar.

  “What did you say!?” Qin Shaoyang asked while emphasizing each word, and his golden robe fluttered slightly.

  He could still tolerate it when Su Han challenged his authority since she was a Qian-level cultivator and a former level 4 inspector.

  However, how dare Hao Ren also challenge his authority?!

  “I want to see how powerful a main examiner is,” Hao Ren said.

  “Reckless!” Qin Shaoyang couldn’t bear it anymore. Standing up, he abruptly released an overwhelming aura and said, “As the main examiner, I disqualify you from the combat exam!”

  “Examiner Qin, are you afraid to fight me?” Hao Ren looked at Qin Shaoyang and asked in a louder voice.

  “Boo…” Hearing his words, the nearly tens of thousands of cultivators all booed.

  Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu exchanged a look, wondering what Hao Ren meant by that.

  Covered in blood, Zhao Kuo sat up and with the sheet of silk draped on his shoulders. He looked up at Hao Ren and thought, “Is this kid crazy after so many battles?”

  Zhao Kuo couldn’t even defeat Qin Shaoyang who was a mid-tier Kun-level cultivator, let alone Hao Ren who was almost depleted of his nature essence.

  Su Han frowned in confusion as she looked at Hao Ren. After each battle, her regard for him increased gradually.
