Chapter 311: Chapter 311: Did You Miss Me?
From the very beginning, Chen Pingping had completely overwhelmed Emperor Tian. When the latter used Divine Skills, Chen also used Divine Skills. Whenever the opponent used another Divine Skill...
A sword light, filled with the breath of the Great Tao, chopped down.
With irresistible force.
He stood as if he were a God from above the Nine Heavens, like an immortal War God, striking with an invincible spirit.
Even for the young prodigies of the Divine Clan, with their bloodlines returning to their ancestors and possessing the power of Emperor Tao Seventh Heaven, it was to no avail.
He was too powerful.
The black vortex still enveloped the area. Emperor Tian cried out in agony, erupting with his utmost power, but still failed to break free.
Everyone was stupefied.
Chen Pingping had fooled the three great empires, ambushed the Purple Gold Divine Clan, and even driven Jin Chan to madness. They all thought this guy actually lacked combat ability, only relying on his tongue to momentarily gain the upper hand.
They never expected that he possessed genuine strength.
"Chen Pingping..." A roar of anger came from the vortex. Emperor Tian’s rage ignited, and he erupted with his Bloodline Power once more. At the same time, he also activated the Sacred Soldier within his body.
It was a golden spear, six feet long and as thick as three fingers, with many ancient characters and some patterns engraved on it.
As the Sacred Soldier revived, the ancient characters separated from it like new life forms and instantly forced open the black vortex.
Seeing this scene, the Purple Gold Divine Clan members, who had been tense just moments ago, breathed a little easier.
"He is about to revive the Sacred Soldier," a cultivator said with a solemn expression.
"It’s not surprising that the Purple Gold Divine Clan has Sacred Soldiers."
"I must admit, Chen Pingping is indeed very powerful. His combat strength is so formidable that it forced Emperor Tian to use a Sacred Soldier."
"If the Sacred Soldier is revived, the battle situation could almost stabilize."
"Yes! Yes!"
The Dean, Lan Xiuzhi, Jiang Ni’er, and Mo Lai all held their breath. Their understanding of Chen Pingping was limited, and they didn’t know if he still had any trump cards. If he didn’t, he might really be unable to withstand it once the Sacred Soldier was revived.
But Guang Xiaoyu couldn’t help but burst into laughter. "Foolish, really foolish."
"What are you laughing at?" others nearby shot her a glance, their faces filled with curiosity. "What’s foolish? Are you talking about Chen Pingping?"
"No!" she lifted her head high and said, "I’m talking about Emperor Tian. He is very foolish."
"Why?"
"He used Divine Skills twice and failed to win both times, yet he still hopes to suppress him by reviving a Sacred Soldier?" Guang Xiaoyu scoffed. "His combat experience is lacking. He doesn’t understand how to judge the situation. Reckless use of Divine Skills is one thing, but not knowing the gap between himself and his enemy, nor finding the weaknesses—at this rate, even holding a Sacred Soldier won’t help him defeat a powerful foe!"
Huh?
The cultivators around her glanced over. They thought they were listening to an elder speaking, but instead, they saw a young girl spouting nonsense.
They indignantly protested, "Even if his battle experience isn’t as good as Chen Pingping’s, Emperor Tian has a deep foundation, many hidden cards, and the entire Purple Gold Divine Clan at his back. He has no reason to lose."
Guang Xiaoyu rolled her eyes and said cheerfully, "I’ll tell you a secret: that guy also has a Sacred Soldier." She pointed at Chen Pingping.
"How do you know?" The cultivators were astonished.
Just as she finished speaking, Chen Pingping raised the Sword Mountain. Without waiting for the opponent’s Sacred Soldier to be revived, he swung Sword Mountain down with both hands.
"???"
Emperor Tian was dumbfounded. So were the powerful members of the Purple Gold Divine Clan.
The Sword Mountain, which stretched for dozens of miles, though not yet fully activated, contained boundless Power Path. It fell from the Heaven Domain, overwhelmingly mighty.
In just an instant, it crushed the land below, toppling mountains with thunderous collapses. The still-reviving spear was also suppressed. Even Emperor Tian’s body was hammered deep into the earth, kicking up dust and soil.
HAHAHA!
Guang Xiaoyu continued to laugh loudly.
The Dean, Lan Xiuzhi, Jiang Ni’er, and Mo Lai were all agape.
Among them, the most shocked was the Saintess, who stared slack-jawed, fixated on the battlefield ahead. Sacred Soldiers? Sword Mountain? Was the senior who once stood behind Chen Pingping also Chen Pingping himself?
BOOM!
Chen Pingping once again lifted Sword Mountain. The skies trembled, and he smashed it down fiercely.
"Some young prodigy from the Purple Gold Divine Clan?"
"PFFT!"
"Even at Emperor Tao Seventh Heaven..." he said disdainfully as he looked into the deep pit. But no one dared to refute him.
Emperor Tian had used Divine Skills twice in a row, and both times Chen Pingping had suppressed him. Now, even after Emperor Tian began to revive his Sacred Soldier, Chen Pingping still overwhelmed him.
Within a hundred li, silence reigned.
All eyes landed on Chen Pingping.
After what seemed an eternity, a graceful figure stepped out. It was none other than Jin Yi, another prodigy of the Divine Clan.
Her steps were light, and her internal energy fluctuations were contained. She was different from the brash Emperor Tian; she exuded simplicity and ordinariness. She completely lacked the ostentation of the Purple Gold Divine Clan.
After a few steps, Jin Yi arrived.
Chen Pingping’s gaze sharpened. "Are you also going to make a move?" He caught a peculiar fluctuation, akin to Chen Shixian’s.
The girl before me is probably the Divine Body of the Divine Clan. Her depth is unknown, her energy concealed. If she were to act, especially with Emperor Tian reviving his Sacred Soldier, it would not bode well for my situation. No way! I must resolve this quickly.
Chen Pingping narrowed his eyes, a few strands of killing intention flitting across them.
"Emperor Tao Seventh Heaven. When your combat strength bursts forth, you can rival those of the Ninth Heaven. Practicing the Six Tao, you’ve just used the True Solar Scripture and the Sword of Vegetation... You are quite good!" Jin Yi spoke.
Chen Pingping was shocked, disbelieving.
Throughout his cultivation journey, some could discern the Six Tao, but almost no one knew of the True Solar Scripture. The Sword of Vegetation was only partially understood by others. Because these Tao techniques originated from his system rewards, they did not exist in this world and did not belong to this world. Thus, no one should have known of them.
Yet, the woman before him spoke of them so easily. Truly inconceivable!
His heart skipped a beat.
"Hey..." Guang Xiaoyu walked out from the crowd, quite a distance away, and called out to Jin Yi, "Divine Body practicing Demon Art, don’t you bully my Senior Brother!"
Hmm?
Hearing the voice, Chen Pingping looked up joyfully. "Xiaoyu, how come you’re here?"
Guang Xiaoyu beamed with a bright smile. "Surprised, aren’t you? HEHE! Senior Brother, have you missed me?"
"..."
"Come on, say that you’ve missed me." She blinked, her cheeks turning scarlet as she showed a shy demeanor.
"Where’s Lao Huang?" Chen Pingping looked at her, noticing only Mao Qiu lying motionless on her shoulder, with no sign of Lao Huang behind her.
He sighed with a hint of frustration. In this situation, how great it would be if Lao Huang were here. Among the four pets, Lao Huang has the strongest combat strength!
Guang Xiaoyu rolled her eyes, a look of grievance on her face. "You only care about that cow. You don’t care about me at all!"
Nine Heavens Bigshot: "Trouble’s brewing! The Demon Emperor is pouting!"
"I do care!" Chen Pingping chuckled. "But... your Senior Brother is in a battle right now! You stand aside first."
Guang Xiaoyu shook her head and said, "You fight Emperor Tian; I’ll take on the Divine Body." She pointed at Jin Yi. "This woman is tough to deal with. She can see everything about you from your eyes. This cultivation technique originates from the Demon Race’s great world. She must have visited the Demon Race; she’s really something."
Chen Pingping wiped away a cold sweat and suddenly remembered a saying, To deal with a woman, you really do need another woman! If Guang Xiaoyu hadn’t stepped forward, I might have fallen for Jin Yi’s trick, mistaking her for someone just like myself!
Jin Yi looked at Guang Xiaoyu with amused interest. "Demon cultivator?"
Guang Xiaoyu answered with a smile, "Heavenly Spirit Body?"
