Alchemy Emperor Of The Divine Dao Chapter 1468 - Troublemakers

The king tiers all lowered their proud and n.o.ble heads, crawling through the dog flap one after another. However, this wasn’t the end. Rather, this was just the beginning of an entertaining show. Since the new disciples had already bowed their heads and abandoned their dignity, their resistance would only become weaker and weaker as time pa.s.sed.

Smiles stretched across the faces of the older disciples, and they chuckled in delight as they pointed at the new disciples. Meanwhile, some of them wore expressions of recollection. It was as if they could see a shadow of themselves on the bodies of these new disciples.

However, they had finally pushed through that torturous period. Now, it was they who were suppressing the new disciples!

There were only 100 new disciples, so even if their movements were slow, how long would it take for all of them to crawl through the dog flap?

“Hmm? Why are you three still standing there?” a senior disciple asked as he glared at Ling Han and the others. The other king tiers were all lining up before the dog flap, with seven or eight of them still yet to crawl through. However, these three new disciples remained standing where they were, calm and composed as if this had nothing to do with them. It was as if they were watching a show.

“What else should we be doing?” Ling Han asked with a smile.

“Come over here and line up! Then crawl through the dog flap!” the senior disciple replied.

“You don’t even know how to crawl through a dog flap?” another senior disciple asked with a cold sneer. They all felt a rush of excitement upon seeing the king tiers being humiliated. Perhaps this was also one of the reasons why this “tradition” hadn’t been abandoned even after so many years.

“I genuinely don’t! Why don’t you people demonstrate it for me? After all, I’m sure you all have a lot of experience,” Ling Han replied with a casual smile. There wasn’t a hint of anger on his face.

Gasp!

However, his words managed to enrage all of the senior disciples.

He was clearly opening up old wounds. The older disciples had all been mentally scarred by this, and it was only through becoming the oppressors themselves that they could wash away their humiliation. Regardless, their experiences were still a torturous stain in their memory.

Yet, Ling Han had actually dared to mention this?

He was asking for a beating!

A senior disciple stepped forward, saying, “There are always some difficult disciples. By the looks of it, it’s you three this time.” He swept his gaze over them. However, his gaze suddenly stopped when it arrived at Empress Luan Xing. His jaw involuntarily dropped, and there was a stunned expression on his face.

Her demeanor was far too intoxicating. Even though he hadn’t witnessed her appearance, his heart was already starting to race. It was beating so fast that it seemed like it were about to jump out from his chest.

“Master, I’ll deal with them!” Jiuyao said as he stepped forward. During the compet.i.tion in the Sunken Abyss Valley, he hadn’t had the chance to battle against the other powerful elites. Thus, he was itching to fight at this moment.

Ling Han pondered for a moment before nodding and replying, “Go ahead.”

After receiving the benefits from the Sun Stone, Jiuyao had already advanced to the middle stage of the low extreme of the Heavenly Body Tier. Meanwhile, the senior disciple before them was also only at the low extreme of the Heavenly Body Tier. Even though he was at the peak stage, Ling Han was confident that Jiuyao wouldn’t be at a disadvantage.

“Come battle!” Jiuyao was burning with fighting spirit. He wanted to see just how powerful the disciples of the Star Sand Martial Arts Academy were.

“Junior Brother, this senior brother will give you some guidance today. Even if we’re both king tiers, I’ll show you just how large the gulf between us can be!” His body shuddered, and a black mist started to flow out from beneath his feet. This black mist then enveloped both him and Jiuyao.

This was one of his ultimate techniques. This black mist could obstruct his opponent’s vision and senses, thereby reducing their battle prowess by at least 50-60%.

Weng!

A brilliant light suddenly exploded from within the black mist. This light was like the sun, and it instantly dispersed the thick cloud of black mist.

Sun Physique!Ling Han had ascended the gigantic golden boulder above the Sunken Abyss Valley and obtained the greatest opportunity. However, his success had also allowed the others to obtain more benefits. With the blessing of heaven and earth lasting for so long, those who had reached the second stage had all absorbed some of the essence of the Sun Stone. This had allowed their cultivation to advance, and had even allowed them to obtain the Sun Physique.

Of course, these were far inferior to the Great Accomplishment stage Sun Physique that Ling Han had obtained. However, this was only the Immortal Realm, and thus even an iota of power from the Celestial Realm was already more than impressive enough.

Jiuyao was as radiant as the sun as he dispersed the black mist.

“What?!” the one dozen or so senior disciples exclaimed in astonishment.

“What cultivation technique is this? It’s actually capable of dispersing Junior Brother Chu’s Extreme Night Dark Mist?!”

“Why do I feel like I can’t even open my eyes?” someone asked, their expression changing drastically.

“My divine sense can’t detect any movement inside that light!” someone exclaimed in shock.

The Extreme Night Dark Mist was the ultimate technique of the eighth campus. Moreover, because the Tranquil Heart Saint had succeeded his Dao through formations, this ultimate technique naturally made use of formations as well. However, one didn’t need to use formation eyes for this formation. Instead, they would act as the formation eye themself.

The integration of humans and formations was incredibly mighty—this wasn’t something that cultivators at the same cultivation level could defeat!

So, why had it been ineffective?

Jiuyao charged forward, launching a wild and ferocious punch.

This was slightly risky. Unless one possessed a physique as freakish as Ling Han’s, one generally wouldn’t be willing to draw too close to their opponents. This was because doing so would increase their own chance of being struck as well. Moreover, this would be especially dangerous if their opponent possessed a G.o.d Tool. If they were struck by a G.o.d Tool, allowing its murderous aura to enter their body, they would definitely suffer severe damage.

However, the situation right now was different. That senior disciple was blinded by the dazzling radiance of the Sun Physique, and all that he could see was a blurry sheet of white. His divine sense had also been disturbed. In other words, he was as good as blind.

It was because of this that Jiuyao dared to charge forward.

The senior disciple was astonished. However, his battle instincts caused him to immediately leap backward in an attempt to escape the area that was affected by Jiuyao’s “sunlight”.

This was a very sound response. However, Jiuyao continued to advance as the other retreated, maintaining the short distance between them.

One of them was retreating, while one of them was advancing. However, both were incredibly quick.

The senior disciple became more and more shocked. Regardless of how he retreated, his surroundings would always be flooded with a blinding light. He couldn’t see anything. This caused terror to rise in his mind.

‘This… won’t last forever, right?’

Boom!

The rising panic in his mind naturally caused him to make a slip-up. His retreat suddenly became slower, and Jiuyao’s fist immediately arrived before his body.

Pa!

He was instantly sent flying. However, at the same time, he also exited the area that was enveloped by the blinding light.

He crashed into the ground with a loud thud. There was a slightly salty taste in his mouth, and opening it, he immediately spat out three broken and bloodied teeth.

Jiuyao retracted his Sun Physique, a satisfied smile on his face.

He hadn’t activated the power of his bloodline. Instead, he had only activated his newly obtained physique. Even so, he had managed to defeat a fellow king tier at the same cultivation level with ease.

The Sun Stone was a precious stone from the Celestial Realm, and it was a stone that had nurtured and given birth to the Nine Heavens Flame, an ancestral flame. Thus, even if Jiuyao had only received a tiny fraction of benefits from it, this was still incredibly freakish when viewed in the context of the Immortal Realm.

The other senior disciples were all stunned. Meanwhile, the young king tiers who still had yet to crawl through the dog flap stood up, complicated expressions on their faces as they gazed at Ling Han, Empress Luan Xing, and Jiuyao.

These were people who dared to resist and fight back. Although they were destined to lose, just their willpower alone was already worthy of their respect and admiration.

“Humph! Sure enough, you people are troublemakers,” Yi Gaoning said with a baleful expression. “You might be strong, but this is completely useless. In fact, it will only cause you to suffer more.”

Jiuyao wagged his finger in disagreement, saying, “Is there anyone else? For those at the same cultivation level, I’ll fight against however many of you step forward! In fact, I’ll even fight against those at the medium extreme or high extreme!” Right now, he possessed two different physiques, both of them extremely powerful. This caused his confidence to rise significantly.

So intimidating was his domineering aura that none of the senior disciples dared to step forward and accept his challenge.

“Humph! You’re a measly cultivator at the Heavenly Body Tier… I can suppress you with a single finger!” Yi Gaoning looked at him in disdain, saying, “Don’t forget, this isn’t a sparring session. Rather, we’re here to give you a ‘welcome ceremony’! Since you’re resisting, we’ll beat you down first!”
