A Brand-New Fusion Power

On the spacious platform, the atmosphere became quieter because of that sudden shout. Many disciples of the Fire Division looked at each other and then fell silent.

They all knew Zhang Hao's personality. Even without Lin Langtian's serious injury to Xiao Lie, he probably wouldn't have easily made a new disciple who had only been in the Fire Division for less than a month his Personal Disciple Grand Disciple.

From another direction, Ling Chi saw this scene, and a playful look flashed in his crimson eyes.

For some reason, he felt a slight sense of apprehension towards Lin Langtian, this aggressive newcomer. However, as Spirit General, he knew he couldn't personally confront a newcomer.

As one of the seven direct disciples, Zhang Hao, with his peak Eight Yuan Nirvana Stage strength, was the perfect person to test Lin Langtian.

Mo Tie and the others frowned, looking at Lin Langtian with some worry. They were currently on the same side as him and were naturally happy to see Lin Langtian's status rise in the Fire Division.

But Zhang Hao's intervention was somewhat frustrating, since, regardless of the circumstances, Zhang Hao's reputation within the Fire Division far surpassed Lin Langtian's.

However, under the watchful eyes of Mo Tie and the others, Lin Langtian remained calm, as if he had not been disturbed at all.

In mid-air, Fen Cang glanced at Zhang Hao, his brows furrowing slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Zhang Hao, are you questioning this leader?"

"Uncle-Master Fen Cang is too kind. This disciple dares not question Uncle-Master Fen Cang's orders. However, the Personal Disciple Grand Disciple is the role model and example for all disciples in the hall. Not only does he need to have extraordinary strength, but he also needs to have convincing qualifications."

"Although this Junior Brother Lin Langtian has good talent, isn't it a bit too hasty to promote him to the Personal Disciple Grand Disciple now?" Zhang Hao clasped his hands in a fist Fen Cang and said in a deep voice.

Ordinary disciples usually address Fen Cang as "Lord of the Department," but Personal Disciple Grand Disciple like Zhang Hao can be addressed as "Uncle-Master," which shows the high status of this Personal Disciple Grand Disciple.

Upon hearing Fen Cang, Fen Cang's old face relaxed slightly, and he then pondered, "In that case, what you said makes some sense. Lin Langtian, what do you think?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fen Cang Lin Langtian and narrowed his old eyes slightly.

Before Lin Langtian could reply, Zhang Hao looked at him, smiled faintly, and said, "Junior Brother Langtian, although you have good talent, I don't think you are qualified to be ranked alongside us seven Personal Disciple Grand Disciple."

Upon hearing this, many disciples of the Fire Division on the platform grimaced; those were rather harsh words.

Mo Tie and the others were also angered by Zhang Hao's words. Ever since they came to the Fire Division, they had regarded Lin Langtian as the leader of their faction. Now that Lin Langtian was being slighted, they were naturally extremely angry.

Although they were furious, they didn't dare to interrupt or say anything recklessly. After all, this was the Yuan Sect, where there was a hierarchy, and Zhang Hao's status and strength in the Fire Division were far beyond their reach.

Therefore, Mo Tie and the others turned their gazes to Lin Langtian, whose handsome face curved into a smile. Then, under the watchful eyes of many, he turned around and looked directly at Zhang Hao.

Zhang Hao, however, sneered at Lin Langtian's gaze, crossed his arms, and exuded an extraordinary aura that pressed down on the former. His strength as a peak Eight Yuan Nirvana Stage was enough to make him look down on Lin Langtian.

"Oh, this senior brother surnamed Zhang, I wonder what threshold you consider to be required for qualification?" Lin Langtian stared at Zhang Hao and said with a faint smile.

Upon hearing Lin Langtian's words, which were laced with the threat of sticks, all the Fire Division disciples present were taken aback. Then, their expressions brightened, realizing that another good show was about to unfold.

Upon hearing this, Mo Tie and the others behind Lin Langtian twitched their lips slightly, barely suppressing the laughter in their hearts.

The senior brother surnamed Zhang, with just a title, directly slapped Zhang Hao in the face, and even insulted him without using any vulgar language.

Lin Langtian was indeed the same domineering figure they remembered, never willing to suffer a loss.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Hao's expression immediately darkened. As the Personal Disciple Grand Disciple of the Fire Division, although his status was not as noble as that of the Yuan Gate Three Young Kings and Eight Spirit Generals of the Yuan Sect, he was still one of the most core members among the tens of thousands of disciples of the Yuan Sect.

However, Lin Langtian was now calling him Zhang repeatedly, clearly showing no respect for him whatsoever.

Seeing Lin Langtian's indifferent expression, Zhang Hao gritted his teeth in hatred, his eyes blazing with anger, and said in a deep voice, "To become the Personal Disciple Grand Disciple of the Fire Division, one must naturally have the trust and strength of all the disciples of the Fire Division."

"Senior Brother Zhang is right, but I'm new to the Fire Division, and I'm not familiar with many of the senior brothers, so I don't really have an advantage in terms of credibility. But as for my strength..."

At this point, Lin Langtian paused slightly, then looked at Zhang Hao and chuckled, "I wonder if Senior Brother Zhang would be willing to learn a thing or two from me?"

Lin Langtian's gentle voice echoed across the platform, causing many disciples to pause in surprise.

Challenging Zhang Hao is incredibly arrogant. Zhang Hao is different from Xiao Lie, not only because he is at the peak of the Eight Yuan Nirvana Stage, but also because he has cultivated the Fire Division's ultimate technique, the ' Flame Emperor Canon's Scripture,' making him quite powerful.

Even if Lin Langtian is able to challenge opponents of higher levels, Zhang Hao, as the Personal Disciple Grand Disciple the Fire Division, cannot be measured by his cultivation level. Defeating him will not be an easy task for Lin Langtian.

"How dare a mere newcomer utter such arrogant words as challenging me?" Zhang Hao's face darkened as he sneered.

"Because I am Lin Langtian!" Lin Langtian stared directly at Zhang Hao and declared firmly.

These words exuded an aura of dominance. Even those who were hostile to Lin Langtian Lin Langtian to admit, upon seeing his confident demeanor, that the champion of the Hundred Dynasties War truly possessed an invincible air. At the same time, they couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and admiration.

Even Zhang Hao was momentarily stunned when faced with Lin Langtian's seemingly invincible aura. He quickly regained his senses and, seeing the respectful gazes of the surrounding disciples toward Lin Langtian, a hint of jealousy flashed in his eyes. He flicked his sleeve and sneered.

"Such arrogance! I'd like to see whether you, Lin Langtian, are truly a rising star or utterly worthless!"

As your Personal Disciple Grand Disciple, I can't afford to bully you. How about this: if you can withstand even one of my moves, I'll acknowledge your position as my Personal Disciple Grand Disciple!

"One move?"

Those around him exchanged glances, their eyes flickering with uncertainty.

They knew that given Zhang Hao's temperament, even though it was only a one-move agreement, he would definitely not hold back in this move. If Lin Langtian wanted to take this move, he might be in mortal danger.

Upon hearing this, Mo Tie and the others also showed worried expressions, but when they thought of Lin Langtian's performance on the Ancient Battlefield, they gradually calmed down.

Since Lin Langtian dared to challenge Zhang Hao, he must have his own confidence!

"Since you two have agreed on the position of Personal Disciple Grand Disciple in one move, then this leader cannot stop you. In this way, it is fair and reasonable." After pondering for a moment, Fen Cang nodded and said.

As soon as he finished speaking, Fen Cang his hand, clearing the stage and leaving it to Lin Langtian and Zhang Hao.

Upon seeing this, the disciples of the Fire Division all showed excitement. A newcomer challenging the Personal Disciple Grand Disciple was a major news event that the Fire Division had not seen in decades.

"You're courting death!"

Zhang Hao stared at the handsome young man who stepped forward, his eyes narrowed, a hint of murderous intent surging within them.

Since being promoted to the Personal Disciple Grand Disciple of the Fire Division, this was the first time he had been treated so arrogantly. He immediately retaliated without hesitation, taking a step forward and unleashing a storm of violent Yuan Power. The intensity of his power was several times greater than that of Xiao Lie.

Boom!

Above the sky, fiery clouds began to gather at some unknown time, and then everyone realized that the elemental energy of this world was showing signs of becoming somewhat violent.

Suddenly, streaks of fire roared down from the fiery clouds above, instantly transforming the entire area into a world of flames.

Zhang Hao, meanwhile, hovered in mid-air amidst the cascading flames, his slightly gloomy face now radiating a chilling, sinister aura.

Immediately, under the watchful eyes of many, Zhang Hao slowly extended his palms, flames converging behind him, and in that instant, it was as if the God of Flames had descended.

"Next, I'll show you the supreme martial arts of my Fire Division. If you can withstand this move, I, Zhang Hao, will agree to promote you, Lin Langtian, to my Personal Disciple Grand Disciple!"

Zhang Hao's voice, like a raging fire, contained a boundless, fiery intent, and spread outwards. In the next instant, his hands suddenly formed a strange hand seal.

"This is..."

The disciples of the Fire Division stared at the hand seals in Zhang Hao's hands, their pupils suddenly contracting, followed by unusually solemn murmurs.

"Senior Brother Zhang Hao has unleashed the Flame Emperor Canon!"

Countless flames poured down from the fiery clouds above, their intense heat reverberating throughout the platform, as if the entire world itself had become scorching hot at that moment.

"That Lin Langtian actually dared to provoke Senior Brother Zhang Hao, he's really courting death." A follower behind Ling Chi sneered.

"Yes, only Senior Brother Ling Chi and the top-ranked Personal Disciple Grand Disciple have a chance to defeat Senior Brother Zhang Hao. How could Lin Langtian, a mere newcomer, possibly be worthy of fighting Senior Brother Zhang Hao?" another person said.

Ling Chi smiled faintly, said nothing, put his hands behind his back, and looked at a thin figure in the midst of the raging fire with his crimson eyes. Then, a cold smile appeared on his lips.

"Boom!"

As Zhang Hao's hand seals changed, the fiery clouds in the sky suddenly began to writhe rapidly, and then gradually transformed into a giant fiery palm.

At the palm of that giant fiery hand, countless flames swirled, and the terrifying temperature was exceptionally chilling.

Under the illumination of the raging flames, the sinister smile on Zhang Hao's face grew even more intense. In the next instant, he pressed down with his palm, and the giant flaming palm, with its terrifying flames, suddenly burst forth like a flamethrower.

At the same time, the giant fiery palm, carrying a world-destroying momentum, crashed down towards Lin Langtian. Waves of extremely astonishing destructive power spread wildly, even distorting the space itself.

"Such a violent fluctuation! As expected of the Personal Disciple Grand Disciple, his combat strength is truly remarkable..."

Lin Langtian stared at the giant fiery hand forming in the sky, a look of solemnity flashing in his eyes. The Yuan Sect truly lived up to its reputation as the top Super Sect, and the disciples it cultivated indeed possessed remarkable combat power.

Although Zhang Hao is only at the peak of the Eight Yuan Nirvana Stage, he is already comparable to most Nine Yuan Nirvana Stage cultivators in the outside world.

However, although Zhang Hao was not weak, Lin Langtian was not to be underestimated either. With a thought, he fused together the Nine Nether Origin Energy, Mental Power, Devouring Power, and even the power of the Vermilion Bird Sky Burning Flame. Immediately, a beam of light in three colors, dark red and black, suddenly shot out from his body.

Lin Langtian's Mental Power has now reached the Five Seal Heavenly Talisman Master, which is already quite strong. In addition, this is his first attempt to fuse with the Vermilion Bird Sky Burning Flame. The Fusion Power is obviously quite formidable!

"Condense!"

As Lin Langtian rapidly formed hand seals, a pillar of light condensed behind him, and in the blink of an eye, under the gaze of countless eyes, it transformed into a giant hand exuding an ancient and savage aura and a Martial Ancestor Phantom that seemed to shake the heavens and the earth.

However, the giant hand and the Martial Ancestor Phantom are different from before. They are now a mixture of dark black and red colors, giving them a more domineering and destructive feel.

"Great Desolation God Extinguishing Palm!"

"Martial Ancestor Reversal Heavenly Art!"

A deep shout suddenly came from Lin Langtian's mouth, and then the huge phantom behind him seemed to stretch out a giant arm and pierce the sky, and the energy of heaven and earth exploded at this moment.

"Break!"

With the support of the new Fusion Power, the colossal hand of God Extinguishing Giant Palm, filled with ancient and savage aura, and the Martial Ancestor Phantom, radiating powerful fluctuations, both swept away with extremely strong pressure.

Wherever the giant palm and the Martial Ancestor Phantom passed, the space trembled violently. Finally, under the watchful eyes of many, it slammed directly onto the giant palm of flames!

"Oh, so you're using two Spirit Martial Skill to defend at the same time? But what is that strange power..." Fen Cang murmured, noticing the dark black and crimson power.

Simultaneously using two Spirit Martial Skill is nothing special; Spirit Martial Skill that are worth a fortune in the outside world are simply not worth mentioning in the Yuan Sect.

Even with his strength at the Life Profound Stage Great Success, he couldn't see through the source of the dark crimson power that Lin Langtian was using. It felt like a fusion of multiple powers, which made Fen Cang somewhat wary.

If Lin Langtian also possessed the strength of the Life Profound Stage, he would likely be helpless against this power...

At this moment, all eyes in the arena were fixed on the Martial Ancestor Phantom and the God Extinguishing Giant Palm, exclaiming in surprise. They could feel the intense pressure emanating from the two illusory figures, which made their hearts tremble.

The next moment, the two collided with a deafening roar. At the instant of impact, the space rippled like a lake where a boulder had been thrown in.

The originally solid ground was now riddled with cracks several meters wide, which spread rapidly under the aftershocks of the two attacks, and in the horrified gazes of the onlookers!
