Chapter 1981 - 1974: This Is the Master’s Scent
"This thing, could it be something left behind by someone from our family?" Zhang Menglong stared silently at the totem on the armor.
But to Ji Xuan, this silence seemed to turn into another emotion, as if he believed Zhang Menglong was intimidated by the power of the armor.
"Gu Xiao, you wouldn’t have expected this, would you? This armor grants me the power of the Dao realm’s limit. I don’t know how many times stronger this power is than common Dao realm martial artists, but killing you people is as easy as slaughtering chickens!"
With a single move, he repelled 17 peak Dao realm martial artists, causing Ji Xuan’s confidence to swell to an almost uncontrollable level.
"Even the world force, what can it do to me?"
The world force, provoked, suddenly began to gather. There was an unknown powerful ancestor behind Zhang Menglong, but on what grounds could Ji Xuan provoke it here?
A bolt of lightning formed by world force descended from the sky, directly striking Ji Xuan, but a red glow appeared on the armor, blocking the world force completely from harming him in the slightest.
"Hahahahaha!" Ji Xuan laughed even more wantonly, "The world force can’t do anything to me, how could you people kill me?"
Seeing Ji Xuan’s confidence, the entire atmosphere of the Divine Profound Hall shifted. Just now, under the attack of the alliance martial artists, they were retreating step by step, but now, they were revitalized.
Gu Xiao had shown many means just now, like the fortified virus, the Eight Trigrams Formation, and the previous Divine Armor, but these were all within the rules of this world.
And now, even the world’s rules couldn’t limit Ji Xuan anymore. What did the Divine Profound Hall still need to fear? Ji Xuan alone was enough to make the whole world submit to him!
"Gu Xiao, you are a talent. Hand over your soul mark and submit to me, and I can consider sparing your life," Ji Xuan said, "If you are willing, your status in the Divine Profound Hall will be second only to mine, and I am willing to offer you the position of Vice Hall Master. What do you say?"
Ji Xuan seemed to already believe he was very benevolent. After all, in his eyes, Zhang Menglong was a very capable person, and he indeed appreciated talent.
"Brother, are you dreaming?" Zhang Menglong shrugged, "What’s so good about your Divine Profound Hall? Being a Vice Hall Master means facing your donkey face every day? And you think you’re worthy of my soul mark?"
"Gu Xiao, this is the last chance the Hall Master gives you. I advise you not to be ungrateful!"
"Wow, you’re so generous," Zhang Menglong said sarcastically, "Do you think you’re quite handsome now?"
"It seems you do not intend to accept my goodwill to you," Ji Xuan shook his head, "What about the rest of you? Is anyone willing to submit to my Divine Profound Hall? In the future, your recruitment and training of disciples will not be interfered with by the Divine Profound Hall, as long as you look up to the Divine Profound Hall."
"Hmph, I may be a woman, but I understand that poverty can’t move me, and power can’t bow me!" The owner of the Yue Yue Palace sneered at Ji Xuan’s behavior, "The deceased disciples and elders of the Yue Yue Palace would not allow this kind of thing to happen either."
"Ji Xuan, give it up. Unless you kill us all, it’s impossible for us to be your accomplices!"
"Very well, very well!" Ji Xuan seemed to have anticipated their answer long ago, not at all surprised by the result, "Since this is the case, then you cannot blame me for disregarding our past friendships and emotions."
The power of the armor was reactivated, the breath on Ji Xuan’s body was crazily climbing, just now he was only giving a small display.
"Wow, 500 times Dao realm power, 600 times, 700 times, 1000 times..." It was now noticed that Zhang Menglong was wearing a strange-looking pair of glasses.
"Brother Gu Xiao, what’s this?" someone next to him asked.
"A combat power detector, it can see the opponent’s specific strength and realm," Zhang Menglong said.
"Bang!" It seemed that the power erupting from Ji Xuan was too strong, and the glasses exploded directly.
"Wuhu, combat power is off the charts," Zhang Menglong rubbed his temple which was a bit sore from the explosion, unaware of how much energy the Dao realm’s limit could compress.
[Dean, according to my preliminary estimate, the power of the Dao realm limit can reach about 100,000 times. There would be some differences between different individuals, but it’s almost like the amount of blood in a person’s body. Compressing the entire body’s strength into a drop of blood is also the limit that energy can be compressed.]
"10,000 times energy of a peak Dao realm martial artist... it is indeed a bit frightening." Only now did Zhang Menglong realize the huge gap between ultimate lifeform and ultimate life form.
A character like Bei Xu, who knows how long it took, only managed to consolidate his body’s energy to several hundred times, still far from 100,000 times.
The 100,000 times energy of the peak Dao realm had already made Ji Xuan extremely powerful, even his breathing could cause space to collapse and distort, even the world force couldn’t harm him, at most they were evenly matched.
"Do you see it? This is the power of this armor, hahahaha!" Ji Xuan laughed, "Give me some more time, and maybe I can comprehend the secrets beyond the Dao realm lifeforms. What do you people have to fight me?"
"Hall Master, don’t waste words with them, they won’t understand your generosity," Ji Ze added vinegar from the side.
"That’s right, even if these people pretend to submit now, they might still harbor rebellious thoughts in the future. While the Hall Master need not fear, it would cause some unnecessary trouble after all."
"You’re right," Ji Xuan nodded, "Alright then, it’s no more than putting in a little extra time and effort to cultivate people. The resources of you 17 superpowers, my Divine Profound Hall will take them all!"
Ji Xuan took a step forward, the wind pressure created by his body’s strength rushed towards the alliance, those weaker martial artists were immediately blown off balance and flew out.
The only ones who could remain standing were the Dao realm martial artists, but the wind pressure still made it hard for them to open their eyes.
"It’s over!"
Ji Xuan thrust his spear forward, the power of destruction descended, everyone seemed about to be overturned by this force.
However, at this moment, Zhang Menglong took a step forward, "Hey, what’s-it-called, shouldn’t you see who you’re using your power to attack? Your nerve is really big, can’t even recognize the master’s people?"
No one heard what Zhang Menglong said at that time, but that attack suddenly came to a halt when it was less than twenty meters from Zhang Menglong.
Time and space seemed to stand still for a moment, yet besides this spear light, everything else was as usual, it seemed only this attack was frozen.
A voice like that of a child came from the armor on Ji Xuan.
"This is... the master’s scent! It’s the master’s presence!"
