Chapter 173: Chapter 173: Convinced or Not?
"This is a third-grade Divine Artifact; is what His Majesty the Divine Emperor said true? If I can withstand his punch, will he really give me this Divine Artifact?"
"His Majesty the Divine Emperor is only in the late stages of Divine King; our cultivations are all at the Divine King level, and some have even reached the pinnacle of Divine King. I don’t believe he can defeat us with one punch!"
"Unless he possesses the Supreme Body, it’s impossible. Qi Yuan is a Divine Emperor, even if it’s a King’s Body, no one would dare to withstand a Divine Emperor while only being at the Divine King level!"
...
The crowd erupted into clamor. 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
Behind Ren Changsheng, the faces of the three Ba Di looked slightly unpleasant. They thought everyone was obedient, but they didn’t expect such disarray and laziness.
"Do they even dare to covet the master’s Divine Artifact?"
A contemptuous look appeared in Spirit Emperor’s eyes. Although Ren Changsheng’s cultivation was only at the level of Divine King, when have we ever seen Ren Changsheng judged solely by his cultivation?
Ren Changsheng possesses the ancestry of Dragon Blood and the Supreme Bone, both of which are supreme existences. Any single one of these traits would be enough to turn the tide in a battle, especially the Supreme Bone, which can make Ren Changsheng’s cultivation reach several realms above his own.
"Is there anyone brave enough to try?"
Ren Changsheng’s faint voice rang out.
"This..."
The eyes of the crowd shimmered; that was a third-grade Divine Artifact, just withstand one punch from Ren Changsheng and it could be theirs!
"I will!"
One Divine King stepped forward.
This Divine King was recently subdued by the three Ba Di.
This person’s cultivation had reached the pinnacle of Divine King; his eyes flickered as he gazed at Ren Changsheng.
To withstand Ren Changsheng’s punch and take the third-grade Divine Artifact—once he obtained it, he just needed to leave.
He believed that so many people were watching, Ren Changsheng would not go back on his word!
He was confident that he could withstand Ren Changsheng’s punch. What worried him were the three Ba Di, those three Divine Emperors, who made him submit.
"Good!"
Ren Changsheng smiled faintly.
The next moment, Ren Changsheng waved his hand, and the Sky-shooting Bow was hurled into the sky above the Divine Emperor’s palace.
"Please!"
Ren Changsheng slightly extended his hand.
"You want me to strike first?"
The Divine King frowned; he was a peak Divine King, a small realm higher than Ren Changsheng.
Originally, the bet was that if he could withstand a punch from Ren Changsheng, he would win, but if he struck first, it meant going all out. With such a strike, Ren Changsheng couldn’t possibly beat him.
"If you don’t take action, then you won’t even have a chance!"
Ren Changsheng looked at him, speaking indifferently.
"Arrogant!"
Anger flashed in the man’s eyes.
He was giving face to the three Ba Di by not wanting to embarrass Ren Changsheng too much.
But who knew Ren Changsheng would be so arrogant.
"Take my punch!"
"Boom!"
The man stepped forward, and in the next moment, the Divine Power within him surged out, forming a formidable Tiger God in front of him.
"Roar!"
The Tiger God roared angrily, its might boundless.
The fearsome Tiger God seemed like it wanted to tear Ren Changsheng to shreds with one swipe; in an instant, it pounced towards Ren Changsheng.
"Well done!"
Light surged in Ren Changsheng’s eyes.
But watching the Tiger God swiping at him, Ren Changsheng didn’t hurry to counterattack; he stood in place as if he didn’t see it.
"You..."
The man was shocked; if this swipe truly killed Ren Changsheng, the three Ba Di would tear him apart.
He desired the Divine Artifact, but he also valued his life!
His intention was to defeat Ren Changsheng, seize the Divine Artifact, not to die here.
If defeating Ren Changsheng was all there was, nobody would have much to say, but killing Ren Changsheng would inevitably make the Spirit Emperor’s Palace ignore the bet.
"Buzz buzz!"
Gritting his teeth, the man withdrew thirty percent of his power, but he was unable to pull back the remaining seventy percent.
Terrifying power descended upon Ren Changsheng.
"Withdrawing thirty percent of your power, this Emperor will spare your life!"
But just when everyone thought Ren Changsheng was about to be defeated, Ren Changsheng’s cold and arrogant voice suddenly rang out.
The next moment, Ren Changsheng made his move.
"Buzz buzz!"
Ren Changsheng took a step forward, and the next moment, a heaven-shocking power rose from his body.
"Bang!"
A dull sound emanated, the divine tiger in the void directly shattered by Ren Changsheng’s strike, his palm turning into a claw descending upon the man.
"How is this possible?"
In the man’s eyes was sheer astonishment. Although the divine tiger had retracted thirty percent of its power, it still had seventy percent of his Divine King peak strength.
This strike was enough to defeat an average late-stage Divine King.
But now, it was directly shattered by Ren Changsheng, his mind was tumultuous, feeling a surge within his body as blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.
"Bang!"
But it was not over yet, Ren Changsheng’s claw directly struck the man’s shoulder.
The next moment, in front of everyone’s astonished faces, half of the man’s body was directly blasted apart!
"Don’t kill me..."
"Ah!"
Screams echoed as the remaining half of the man’s body knelt before Ren Changsheng, his eyes filled with fear.
It was close; his entire body was nearly torn apart.
No one could have saved him then!
"Buzz buzz!"
Silence fell before the Spirit Emperor’s Palace. Ren Changsheng stood there, his expression serene and untroubled, but the crowd before him was utterly shocked.
Too strong.
A Divine King at his peak was nearly annihilated in one strike by Ren Changsheng; even a Divine Emperor couldn’t achieve that.
Is Ren Changsheng truly this powerful?
"What formidable power, just now I didn’t see him using any Divine Power; that was merely the power of his physique!"
"This is way too terrifying!"
...
A group of Divine Kings, their faces filled with terror, it was terrifying. If Ren Changsheng’s claw had landed on that person’s head, the outcome can only be imagined.
"Who else?"
Ren Changsheng’s indifferent voice sounded in the void.
"Buzz buzz!"
An utter silence before the Spirit Emperor’s Palace; even Qi Yuan bowed his head, Ren Changsheng was merely a late-stage Divine King.
But on Ren Changsheng, he felt a force, comparable to his own, even more terrifying than the power he possessed.
"You, come out!"
Ren Changsheng’s gaze fell on Qi Yuan.
"I..."
Qi Yuan swallowed.
"Take my punch!"
"Boom!"
A cold voice sounded, the next moment, Ren Changsheng threw a punch, with that punch, Qi Yuan’s expression instantly changed dramatically.
As the punch descended, he felt as if he was locked in place, a sense of death emanating from Ren Changsheng.
"Roar roar!"
Behind Ren Changsheng, tens of thousands of feet of phantom image appeared, the ancestral dragon bloodline activated, the aura on Ren Changsheng’s body was dozens of times more terrifying than that of a Divine Emperor.
