Chapter 610 - 604: Forcibly Detaining Xi Huang
Seeing Xi Huang fallen into silence, Lin Yuan took the initiative to speak: "Xi Huang, I want to know, what price did Wa Huang pay to save the Peacock Great Ming King?"
"We are willing to compensate for the price Wa Huang paid, just asking you to let him go."
If this battle could be avoided, Lin Yuan certainly preferred not to fight.
First of all, Xi Huang was here to deliver a message for peace, keeping him here was an act of desperation and somewhat inappropriate.
Secondly, nine days from now would be the great battle with the World Honored.
In the world, Lin Yuan had the World Honored as an enemy.
In the Void, they also had the Buddha and Demon Lord as two major enemies.
With enemies everywhere, there was no need to completely offend Wa Huang; if they could save the Peacock Great Ming King peacefully, that would be the best.
Moreover, the Peacock Great Ming King was still in Wa Huang’s Palace, for his safety, unless absolutely necessary, they should avoid force.
Using force was a last resort, no choice but to resort to.
What price did Wa Huang pay?
She owed Daoist Venerable an enormous karma.
Compensate?
Xi Huang thought to himself, do you, kid, have the capability to compensate for this?
No, you do not.
"The price Wa Huang paid, you can’t bear it, you can’t afford it!" Saying this, Xi Huang looked at Lin Yuan and asked: "Kid, what exactly do you want?"
"Lay out the path, I’ll take them one by one."
With this statement from Xi Huang, Lin Yuan knew there was no room for negotiation.
Despite knowing force was the least desirable option, Lin Yuan was truly out of ideas apart from this last resort.
Lin Yuan gritted his teeth and said to Xi Huang: "In this case, I must ask Xi Huang to stay as a guest!"
"Rest assured, I will certainly entertain you well!"
As Lin Yuan finished speaking, Elder Bai and the others did not hide any longer.
Everyone immediately began setting up the array according to Elder Bai’s arrangement.
Xi Huang’s strength was formidable; among the present, except for Lin Yuan who possessed the Human King Armor and Human King Sword.
Anyone else, including Elder Bai and the Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder, were far inferior in strength to Xi Huang.
In such a situation, if they wanted to assist Lin Yuan, there was only one way, which was to set up the array.
Individually they could not match Xi Huang, but with the support of the array, it was different.
The array could link their powers together; five fingers alone are weak, but forming a fist is much stronger.
Seeing Lin Yuan dare bring so many people to attack him, Xi Huang lost his previous good temper.
As the saying goes, even a clay person has three parts fire, let alone Xi Huang.
"Bold kid, dare attack me."
"Very well, let’s see your measure." Xi Huang’s face remained composed and calm.
In the next moment, Xi Huang was the first to strike.
"Crash."
Xi Huang lightly waved his hand, and suddenly, countless mud flowed from his sleeve, instantly covering a vast area of the sky.
The people of Wa Huang’s Palace seemed adept at molding mud.
According to the Peacock Great Ming King, when he last encountered Xi Huang, Xi Huang had used mud bowls to trap him.
The seemingly ordinary mud bowls last time could trap the Peacock Great Ming King for so long,
The current mud was clearly extraordinary.
The mud hovered in the air, like a waterfall made of mud.
At this moment, it was as if an invisible giant hand was continually kneading the mud.
Following this invisible hand’s manipulation, a formidable mud dragon was shaped within the mud.
The mud dragon slowly extended its head from the mud waterfall, exuding a terrifying aura.
This aura was in no way inferior to the Kshatriya and Brahma previously slain by Lin Yuan.
There’s no doubt that compared to Xi Huang, Kshatriya and Brahma were leagues behind.
Xi Huang used magic, casually molding a giant mud dragon with the power to match Kshatriya and Brahma.
"Woohoo!"
The mud dragon emerged from the mud waterfall, letting out a deafening dragon roar.
However, after emerging from the mud waterfall, its body began transforming at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Before everyone’s eyes, the mud dragon astonishingly transformed from a clay dragon into a flesh-and-blood body.
The dragon came to life, fully alive.
Lin Yuan: "????"
Witnessing this scene, Lin Yuan was utterly shocked.
Regardless of the strength of this power,
The mere act of creating a creature exceeded Lin Yuan’s imagination.
Conjuring a dragon from thin air, is this the technique of Wa Huang’s Palace?
Terrifying, truly terrifying!
Clouds follow the dragon, winds follow the tiger.
The formidable dragon transformed from mud to flesh, carrying wind and clouds, charged towards Lin Yuan.
Under the massive body of the formidable dragon, Lin Yuan’s figure appeared as tiny as an ant.
Though tiny, humans can fight against heaven and earth.
At the moment the formidable dragon charged, the Human King Sword in Lin Yuan’s hand surged with sword energy.
The enormous sword energy erupted from the Human King Sword, the tremor force from this powerful sword energy required Lin Yuan to clasp the sword with both hands to barely hold it.
At this moment, it was not Lin Yuan wielding the sword against the formidable dragon, but the Human King Sword leading Lin Yuan in battle against the formidable dragon.
The Human King Sword carried Lin Yuan through moves and combat techniques once used by the Human King.
Undoubtedly, the Human King Sword was seizing the opportunity to teach Lin Yuan swordsmanship.
With this realization, Lin Yuan couldn’t help but feel delighted.
Led by the Human King Sword, Lin Yuan engaged in battle with the formidable dragon.
Initially, Lin Yuan was at a disadvantage, but as the fight progressed, his disadvantage slowly turned into an equilibrium.
Then, it gradually shifted into an advantage.
Lin Yuan had a high level of perception, quickly grasping swordsmanship.
Basically, after going through a set of swordsmanship shown by the Human King Sword once, Lin Yuan could remember most of it.
If he viewed it a few more times, aside from not fully understanding the essence, he could master most of the external moves.
Seeing his molded mud dragon falling into a disadvantage, Xi Huang was anxious.
What was this?
Was this world so abnormal?
Kshatriya fell here, Brahma fell here, even Demon King Bosun would fall here, right?
Peacock Great Ming King was still trapped in Wa Huang’s Palace, thus Xi Huang also knew, even if he were captured, his life wasn’t in danger.
But who was Xi Huang? He was the top under the four great innate gods.
If he were trapped by Lin Yuan’s group of youngsters, how could he possibly show his face?
Though Xi Huang was rather gentle, he was also very proud.
Moreover, losing personal face aside, he couldn’t disgrace Wa Huang’s Palace!
With this thought, Xi Huang decided internally that he must leave today, no one could stop him.
