Chapter 451 Sowing Discord
Rumble—
The void trembled, and the entire underground cavern shook.
"Lu Hao, you still dare to make a move!"
"Locust King roared. After all, the illusory image of the Origin Dao in the void had disappeared, which meant that Lu Hao had successfully broken through and was now at the peak. He could no longer attack other cave warriors. Locust King suppressed his spiritual power, trying to stop Lu Hao. He did not expect Lu Hao's combat power to be so strong. He was still breaking through and could kill a ninth-rank warrior with one move. In just a short while, Lu Hao had killed 11 ninth-rank warriors. If he continued to kill, would there be a good outcome?"
Fortunately, Lu Hao had already advanced, otherwise he would have stopped Lu Hao even at the risk of breaking the agreement. The people Ji Yao brought were also quite useless; several ninth-rank self-destructions did not cause any damage to Lu Hao.
"Hmph, so you're the King of Locust Trees, aren't you? I've been wanting to test my skills against a peerless expert for a long time. Today, I've just advanced to the peerless level, so I'll have some fun with you, you old dog."
Lu Hao snorted coldly, his mental power instantly shattering Huai Wang's mental power. He then flew towards the edge of the forbidden zone. The strength he was currently displaying was only around one million units of Qi and Blood, which was much stronger than a weak peak cultivator. Huai Wang and Zhang Tao were not surprised by this, since Lu Hao's combat power had already exceeded the ninth rank before his breakthrough. It was not suspicious that he had improved so much now.
Meanwhile, Huai Wang also attacked Lu Hao. After all, he had just lost the battle with Zhang Tao. If he didn't make a move in the face of Lu Hao's provocation, people would probably underestimate him. Moreover, he could take advantage of Lu Hao's recent breakthrough, so he wasn't worried.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Hao saw the figure of the Huai King. He slashed at the Huai King in mid-air, and the blood-red blade light cleaved through the void. A silver-white flower bloomed in the void, but it only had three petals. It couldn't bloom any longer because breaking through to the fourth level required 120 million calories of blood energy, and Lu Hao was only using 100 million calories of power.
King Huai was not to be arrogant. He struck out with his palm, and the void shattered instantly to the fourth level. King Huai's strength was not bad. He had already revealed the fourth level. Otherwise, one would have to have strength to be a servant of the seven surnames.
Seeing that the palm strike had dispersed Lu Hao's blade light and was heading straight for him, Lu Hao didn't intend to reveal his strength. Zhang Tao, standing beside him, also made a move, throwing a punch that clashed with Huai Wang's incoming palm strike. "Lu Hao, you've just advanced, so don't rush to spar with these old guys. Leave this to me."
Zhang Tao said with a smile, "Now Lu Hao has also reached the pinnacle. With a little more progress, he will be able to carry the banner of humanity. The human race will finally usher in another pinnacle."
"Minister Zhang, I just broke through and wanted to test the strength of the True King of the Underground Cave. It seems that King Huai is quite capable."
Lu Hao said with a smile, not taking the gloomy-faced King Huai seriously at all. It was just that he couldn't reveal his full strength now, otherwise, someone like him wouldn't even be able to withstand the aftershock of his strike.
"You can improve slowly once you know your shortcomings. After all, you're still young, unlike us old men. It will be easy for you to beat these old guys when the time comes."
Zhang Tao shook the blood off his hands and said.
"King Wu, don't teach your descendants here anymore. If you want to teach them, take them back to your land of rebirth."
King Huai snorted coldly, inwardly cursing all the other True Kings. He had said that there were resurrected warriors who had broken through to the True King level, but what did it mean that they didn't send out a single one?
If someone were to distract Zhang Tao now, they might be able to injure Lu Hao. As for killing him, King Huai knows that's impossible, and the other human peak experts wouldn't stand idly by. Neither side wants to start a true king war right now, so there are minor skirmishes, but no major battles.
"Hahaha, King Huai, humanity has finally produced a peerless master, can't I even be happy?"
Zhang Tao said with a smile.
"Hmph, I'd like to see what chance of victory we have in the battles of the Southern Seven Regions without Lu Hao."
King Huai glanced at the situation in the Southern Seven Regions and said with a smile.
"I don't know what's going on in the Southern Seven Regions, but King Huai should think carefully about why the Royal Court didn't send a True King here. Maybe they're planning to let you perish here. After all, do you really think you can withstand two peerless experts?"
Zhang Tao seizes every opportunity to sow discord.
Although he knew Zhang Tao was trying to sow discord, King Huai still harbored a seed of doubt. After all, he had said that someone in the Land of Rebirth had advanced to the rank of True King, and the royal court must have received the news. However, it was hard not to believe that he had been abandoned after so long without a single True King showing up.
Seeing that Huai Wang had fallen silent, Zhang Tao smiled. This kind of provocation was something that needed to be done from time to time. When the time came to create a rift between them, it might just turn them into enemies.
Lu Hao, watching Zhang Tao's performance, couldn't help but admire the old fox's skill. A mere Emperor-level being disguised as a powerful peak expert was a perfect disguise. He really needed to learn from Zhang Tao.
Below, as Lu Hao broke through and killed the ninth-rank cultivators, Ji Yao quickly recalled the seventh and eighth-rank cultivators, wanting to leave the Southern Seven Domains. After all, Lu Hao had killed all nine ninth-rank cultivators she had brought in one fell swoop. Without these ninth-rank cultivators, Ji Yao felt extremely unsafe. Even with her ancestor's spiritual power clone, a True King had just been born among the resurrected humans, making it easy for them to deal with the spiritual power clone. Ji Yao was afraid; she didn't want to die here, so she quickly recalled the seventh and eighth-rank cultivators.
However, the recall wasn't as simple as Ji Yao had imagined. Of the fourteen eighth-rank warriors, one was already dead, and the remaining thirteen were barely holding off Wu Kuishan. On the seventh-rank side, Fang Ping's Golden House was still intact, with over ten seventh-rank warriors inside. The seventh-rank warriors outside were also tied down by Fang Ping and his two companions and couldn't retreat at all. Ji Yao looked around at the situation, gritted her teeth, and directly led the remaining two eighth-rank warriors away. After all, if she were captured, her death would be a minor matter; what if the resurrected warriors figured out a way to deal with the ancestor's primordial energy in the storage space? Now, there was only one ninth-rank warrior left opposite Nan Yunyue. The other two had been killed by Lu Hao, and with Nan Yunyue's combat power, she could kill this ninth-rank warrior in no time. If he then turned his attention to her, she would have nowhere to retreat.
Ji Yao quickly retreated in the direction she came from. She had come with great confidence, after all, there shouldn't be any problems with more than fifty high-ranking officials. But now, Fang Ping had not killed them, and all nine of her uncles, who were also at the ninth rank, had died. Ji Yao blamed all of this on Fang Ping. If it weren't for her own uncles, how could they have died here?
