Canglong's Overbearing Power

Chapter 18: Canglong's Overbearing Might

Gu Feng flashed a smug smile. The other two disciples from North Xu Palace cheered, believing victory was within their grasp.

Bi Fan's momentum didn't decrease at all. His fist transformed into a palm, his wrist bending slightly. Two slender fingers, like jade, pointed to the sky as he proactively met Gu Feng's precious sword.

Gu Feng's precious sword slid through Bi Fan's fingers. Bi Fan exerted force with his two fingers, instantly clamping down on the opponent's sword.

The precious sword stopped instantly. No amount of pulling worked. Gu Feng's expression changed drastically.

"Your strength... isn't enough..." Bi Fan lightly wagged his fingers with his other hand, his tone extremely dismissive.

Gu Feng was so enraged he almost spat blood. He struggled to pull back his precious sword, his face turning purple from the exertion. The precious sword remained clamped by Bi Fan, unmoving.

With a strong pull, Bi Fan yanked Gu Feng closer and unleashed a punch with his left hand.

"Bang!" The punch landed squarely on Gu Feng's chest.

Gu Feng spewed a mouthful of crimson blood, no longer able to hold his precious sword. He was sent flying off the stage.

Gu Feng lost. The spectators below gasped in unison.

Most people had assumed Gu Feng had won for sure, so the outcome was beyond everyone's expectations.

Not only did Bi Fan win, but he won with ease.

In total, Bi Fan had only used one set of Myriad Ancestor Fist. The final ultimate skill didn't resemble a martial arts move, and no one knew what it was called.

"How is this possible? Gu Feng lost just like that."

"Yeah, nobody even understood what happened before Gu Feng lost. Gu Feng was clearly one realm higher. What's going on?"

"Bi Fan's **strength is incredibly powerful, his overall combat power has reached the Great Strength Realm. It's not strange that Gu Feng lost."

"To have the combat power of the Great Strength Realm at only the Valiance Realm is too formidable. If he continues to advance, who knows what will happen." Many exclaimed.

Dongfang Canglong and Jing Feng remained calm. Jing Feng knew some of Bi Fan's ultimate skills, and Dongfang Canglong, who also cultivated **strength, recognized Bi Fan's extraordinary abilities.

"Qingyang Sect's Bi Fan wins!" When the referee announced the result, the crowd quieted down slightly before erupting into noise again.

Mainly, many people had lost Crystal Stones and were naturally dejected, spitting curses. Gu Feng was particularly lambasted.

Gu Feng couldn't be bothered to claim the high-grade Magic Tool anymore. He fled with his companions.

Bi Fan naturally accepted the high-grade Magic Tool with a smile. It was worth several hundred Crystal Stones; it would be foolish not to take it.

Jing Feng laughed heartily. Winning fifteen thousand Crystal Stones at once made him "wealthy."

"Brother Bi Fan, it was all thanks to you this time," Jing Feng said with a smile.

Bi Fan replied, "Brother Jing Feng, you're too kind. You just had a good eye."

"Alright, we should head to the outer perimeter of the Demon Realm. We still don't know the situation with the Sha Qi," Jing Feng said.

"Can I go with you?" Dongfang Canglong suddenly asked.

Jing Feng sized up Dongfang Canglong but remained silent.

Bi Fan thought for a moment and nodded. "Okay, traveling together will be good for mutual support."

Seeing that Bi Fan had agreed, Jing Feng didn't object.

The three purchased teleportation jade tokens and entered the outer perimeter of the Demon Realm.

Because of Gu Feng's trouble and the martial arts competition, Bi Fan hadn't had a chance to understand the situation. He didn't know what was happening with the Sha Qi, nor what that massive explosion was about.

Bi Fan was also anxious to understand what was happening inside, especially regarding the Dragon Sable and the Evil Fire Snake Lion, whom he wanted to find as soon as possible.

Upon entering the outer perimeter of the Demon Realm, the three headed straight for the Sha Qi region.

Along the way, Jing Feng generously gave Bi Fan a pet belt. He had profited greatly this time and didn't care about a pet belt.

Dongfang Canglong only had the strength of the Spiritual Wisdom Realm, but his cultivation of **strength was very potent. Although not as exaggerated as Bi Fan's, his **strength had reached five Cloud Stones.

Despite their different personalities, the three were all spirited men and quickly hit it off.

However, from Dongfang Canglong's conversation, it was evident he wasn't happy and even seemed somewhat solitary.

"Bi Fan, when can we spar? It seems your **strength is even greater than mine. I really don't know how you cultivate; you're a freak!" Dongfang Canglong said seriously.

Bi Fan gave a wry smile. "Alright, perhaps another time."

Dongfang Canglong had mentioned it several times. He was a martial arts fanatic, and Bi Fan just wanted to keep his distance, lest he didn't know when it would end.

Dongfang Canglong knew Bi Fan was just placating him. He never changed his mind once he set his sights on something.

"Brother Bi Fan, you've been in the outer perimeter of the Demon Realm for a while. Do you know anything about the Sha Qi situation?" Jing Feng asked.

"I was undergoing training when the Sha Qi erupted into the sky, and then everyone, humans and Mo Beasts alike, rushed to the vicinity of the Sha Qi region," Bi Fan recounted slowly. "The Sha Qi region was vast. At the time, many wanted to explore it. Not long after entering, some went mad and died."

He paused and continued, "Everyone had to retreat. Later, some experts at the Spiritual Wisdom Realm and above, even many at the Mortal Transformation Realm, ventured in. They also suffered heavy casualties and eventually had to retreat.

"After these people came out, they brought experts from their sects. When they entered, a massive explosion occurred, followed by a storm that swept me into the second layer of the Demon Realm. I used a teleportation jade token to return to Xiguan Town. I almost died; it was truly perilous."

Jing Feng and Dongfang Canglong's mouths hung open, and it took a long while for them to regain their composure.

"It seems the Sha Qi is truly formidable, even those old monsters couldn't handle it," Jing Feng marveled.

"Quickly, let's go see what's going on," Dongfang Canglong shouted.

The three of them sped along, rushing towards the area where the Sha Qi had erupted.

"Roar!" Suddenly, a pack of Magic Wolves appeared ahead. There weren't many, only twenty-one in total, all of the Magic Wolf level, with the strongest reaching the Spiritual Wisdom Realm.

"Excellent, another good fight! Don't try to snatch them from me, these Magic Wolves are mine." Dongfang Canglong said excitedly.

Bi Fan and Jing Feng exchanged glances, shaking their heads and smiling wryly.

Dongfang Canglong pulled out a dark, watermelon-knife-like Top-grade Magic Tool and charged directly into the Magic Wolf pack.

"Mountain Splitting Chop! Force of a Thousand Pounds!"

The small watermelon knife, in Dongfang Canglong's hands, actually emitted the might of thunder.

"Boom!" With one slash, a Magic Wolf's head was severed, its blood spraying three meters away.

Dongfang Canglong paid no mind, and with another slash, struck at another Magic Wolf. His movements were swift and fierce, his power overbearing and ferocious.

"This kid is good, so brave. Coupled with his resolute character, his future achievements are limitless," Jing Feng lightly fanned his jade fan, praising him.

The jade fan in Jing Feng's hand had been replaced. It was finally a Top-grade Magic Tool Jade Fan, not only elegant but also useful for combat.

Bi Fan chuckled, "Dongfang Canglong seems to have specialized in Strength, his combat power is very strong."

"Brother Bi Fan, haven't you also specialized in Strength? I remember during the Registered Disciple selection, his Strength was no different from ordinary cultivators. How did he become so powerful so quickly?" Jing Feng pouted.

"Uh..." Bi Fan was suddenly speechless.

Dongfang Canglong killed the Magic Wolves as easily as slicing vegetables.

Watching Dongfang Canglong's moves, there were no exquisite martial skills to speak of. It was simply a combination of strength, bravery, and dominance. Jing Feng was different; his was a combination of elegance and dominance. Dongfang Canglong, with the simplest and most direct moves, was invincible. Almost no Magic Wolf could withstand three moves.

In a short while, the entire Magic Wolf pack was annihilated by Dongfang Canglong.

Jing Feng and Bi Fan watched, dumbfounded, their hearts churning.

"Brother Jing Feng, Brother Bi Fan, hurry up and collect the Magic Wolf corpses," Dongfang Canglong shouted.

After a fierce battle, Dongfang Canglong was in a very good mood.

"Brother Canglong, you hunted all the Magic Wolves, so the spoils naturally belong to you," Jing Feng said with a smile.

"Everyone gets a share, why say so much? My Cosmic Bag is limited, and I can't carry so many Mo Beast corpses. We'll definitely encounter more Mo Beasts later," Dongfang Canglong said.

Bi Fan and Jing Feng stopped being polite and casually collected a few Magic Wolf corpses. They didn't pay attention to whether there were Crystal Cores inside.

The chance of Crystal Cores appearing in Mo Beasts was very low. Powerful Yao Beasts were the most likely to yield Crystal Cores.

The three of them divided all the Magic Wolf corpses and continued on their way.

Dongfang Canglong, having just fought, didn't expend much energy. He took an Inner Breath Pill to restore his Inner Breath and, after a brief period of adjustment, recovered his full strength.

Along the way, the three of them traveled at full speed. They encountered several waves of Mo Beasts, all of which they easily dealt with.

Finally, after traveling thousands of miles, they arrived at the vicinity of the Sha Qi area.

The surroundings of the Sha Qi area were devastated. Many towering trees were broken in half, and in some places, even the soil and rocks had been scraped away.

People were everywhere around the Sha Qi area, all stopping to observe, none daring to venture in.

Bi Fan said, "Brother Jing Feng, Brother Canglong, you two wait here and watch. I'm going to search the surroundings for the Gluttonous Sable."

The Evil Fire Snake Lion couldn't be exposed for now, especially not around the Sha Qi area. Once exposed, many people would likely remember the young man who ventured deep into the Sha Qi area.

"Go, be careful," Jing Feng said.

Bi Fan turned and disappeared into the forest. He began searching everywhere, continuously signaling the Evil Fire Snake Lion through a wisp of its soul.

As long as the Evil Fire Snake Lion wasn't too far away, it should be able to sense him.

The wisp of soul from the Evil Fire Snake Lion was still there, so it should be fine.

After a while, the Evil Fire Snake Lion responded. The wisp of soul trembled and pointed Bi Fan in a direction.

Bi Fan quickly rushed over and was overjoyed to find both the Evil Fire Snake Lion and the Dragon Sable unharmed.

"Fire Lion, Gluttonous Sable, I'll have to trouble you to enter the pet belt for now. It'll be quite troublesome if someone recognizes you," Bi Fan said.

The Evil Fire Snake Lion nodded and immediately agreed.

Although the Dragon Sable was somewhat reluctant, it also understood the urgency of the situation and finally nodded.

Bi Fan put them into the pet belt, prepared plenty of food for them, and then quickly left.

The Sha Qi area had undergone a great explosion and a Sha Qi storm. The Sha Qi had not weakened; instead, it had become even more ferocious.

The old fellows who had entered last had all retreated, looking disheveled and very embarrassed. They likely hadn't gained anything.

After several elders emerged, they immediately announced the sealing of the Sha Qi area, forbidding anyone from entering. Everyone else could only watch from the outside.
