One Battle

The festive atmosphere of the lanterns and decorations had not yet faded, and the Heavenly Barbarian Sect Main Hall was now silent. Xiao Han calmly played with the wine vessel filled with fine wine in his hand. Even though he made all sorts of difficult moves and even tossed it into the air from time to time, not a single drop of liquid spilled.

As it turned out, he had oversimplified the issue.

Xiao Han had hoped to take advantage of everyone's joy to bring up the matter of exchanging the Saint's Remains, and the group, who had been laughing and joking, suddenly revealed their true colors.

With nearly ten Dou Sheng Experts and several Dou Zun, they were an absolute Super faction even in Central Plains, which made Xiao Han feel quite troubled.

However, what really concerned him was the reaction of the Heavenly Barbarian Sect's higher-ups, or rather, the Huang Jing Tian Sect Master.

Just from the murderous glares of the Elder, Xiao Han could tell that this Sect Master was more reliable.

"The Ice Saint..." After a long silence, Huang Jing Tian's words finally overwhelmed everything else in the hall.

"Or rather..."

"Pavilion Master Su!" Huang Jing Tian said without any joy or sorrow, "I wonder what price you are willing to pay in exchange for the Saint's Remains of my Heavenly Barbarian Sect?"

Xiao Han's expression brightened; was there an opportunity?

In stark contrast to Xiao Han's reaction were the other Elder and the Grand Supreme of the Heavenly Barbarian Sect.

"Sect Master, how can this be!"

"The Saint's Remains are the most precious treasure of our sect. How can we give them away so easily?"

"..."

As the Elder chattered in his ear, Huang Jing Tian gently raised his hand, and all the sounds immediately ceased, but their resentful and questioning gazes still revealed their attitude.

At this Huang Jing Tian, Huang Jingtian's small and thin figure suddenly exuded an overwhelming and domineering aura:

"I agree. Do you have any objections?"

Everyone fell silent. Even the one or two stubborn individuals were pulled back by others before they could speak.

Just kidding. Although the Saint's Remains are precious, their Heavenly Barbarian Sect has quite a few. A lot of them are gathering dust in the Forbidden Ground. The Sect Master has given the order, so their subordinates just need to obey.

The Saint's Remains from the Heavenly Barbarian Sect are different from the commonly circulated accounts of saint corpses on the mainland, all thanks to their unique techniques and cultivation methods.

Every time a Dou Sheng Expert from the Heavenly Barbarian Sect gains a star in cultivation, they leave behind a physical shell, much like a snake shedding its skin. What Xiao Han wants is precisely this Saint's Remains that can serve as the corpse of Dou Sheng.

However, although the remains of the Heavenly Barbarian Sect have accumulated over the years, these remains are of great benefit to body cultivators, and Xiao Han is prepared to bleed heavily for them.

"Then please name your price, Sect Master Huang!" Xiao Han was determined to get these items.

"Hehe!" Huang Jing Tian waved his hand, "No rush!"

His eyes narrowed slightly, and an aura of a Fierce Beast emanated from him, causing Xiao Han's body to tense up involuntarily.

With Xiao Han on high alert, Huang Jing Tian's voice slowly echoed in the hall, "Please demonstrate your abilities first..."

"It's my own right!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Han's expression changed, and a Frost Giant Shield instantly stood in front of him, with a chilling Cold Qi spreading around him.

Immediately afterwards...

A deafening roar echoed throughout the hall, and the incredibly hard shield that Xiao Han had conjured turned to dust as easily as tofu.

Huang Jing Tian's frail figure in his seat slowly disappeared, replaced by the peerless overlord confronting Xiao Han.

At the start of the battle, all the Elder with any sense quickly left the main hall. Then, a giant light shield encompassing the entire mountain range suddenly rose up.

Various patterns flowed across the light shield, and the oppressive aura emanating from it caused all the Magical Beast in the entire mountain range to prostrate themselves on the ground, trembling all over.

Sensing the movement outside, Xiao Han's lips curled into a slight smile:

"Since Sect Master Huang has such an interest, I..."

"Of course I'll oblige!"

His body moved like Flowing Light, and countless Ice Blue Spear shot towards Huang Jing Tian under Xiao Han's control.

Along the path the spear traversed, the jet-black Space Rift, sharp as arrows, gradually healed.

Faced with this move that even a typical Seven Star Dou Sheng would have to temporarily avoid, Huang Jing Tian stood calmly.

Immediately, a low shout rang out!

His originally thin body suddenly swelled up, and the spear pierced the latter's body hard, producing a sound of metal clashing together.

"Heavenly Barbarian Sect, truly worthy of being called Body Cultivator Holy Land!" Xiao Han exclaimed in admiration. Just based on their unparalleled defensive capabilities alone, they were enough to make them a role model for body cultivators.

"But..." Xiao Han formed a strange hand seal with his left hand, "This isn't enough!"

"Oh?" Hearing Xiao Han's words, Huang Jing Tian became even more excited. "Haha~"

"Then let me see the capabilities of the experts from Central Plains!" A furious shout followed.

"Barbarian King Golden Body!" Huang Jing Tian transformed into a dazzling Golden Statue, his heartbeat so conspicuous in the scene, each punch and kick possessing the power to shatter the heavens and split the earth.

"Then I'll grant your wish!" Xiao Han's figure suddenly disappeared, and a blizzard swept through the hall, the frigid temperature enough to freeze any expert below the Dou Sheng level to death.

"Bind!"

"Ice Fiend Spear!"

White Silk Thread shot out from the ice-blue spear that Huang Jing Tian had previously deflected, tightly wrapping around Huang Jing Tian's entire body.

The latter tried to pull it, but was surprised to find that the threads were being wrapped even more tightly.

Under Xiao Han's control, countless Ice Spear flew through the air, then slammed into the walls of the hall with unstoppable force. The immense pressure caused dense cracks to appear in the walls, and endless halos flowed through the spears, with a golden body at their center.

Huang Jing Tian suddenly felt his fighting Dou Qi rapidly draining away.

Faced with this situation, the former remained calm and instead commented with great interest, "Your mastery of formations is truly admirable!"

Xiao Han directly concealed the formation within his attack. If he encountered an ordinary Dou Sheng, it would be impossible to defend against and would cause great trouble.

Alas...

Huang Jing Tian's face flushed red, his muscles bulged, and he stomped down suddenly!

Tens of thousands of strong silk threads were torn apart by brute force! And the ground beneath Huang Jing Tian's feet caved in several feet.

The many powerful members of the Heavenly Barbarian Sect who were controlling the protective shield from the outside felt an instant increase in pressure. They all shouted and poured their Dou Qi into the entire Grand Array, and the originally blue light shield gradually became mixed with some blood red.

Everyone felt a bitter taste in their mouths. Their Sect Master was already a monster, and now they actually encountered a monster who could go toe-to-toe with him!

Back in the battlefield inside the main hall, the floor, which had withstood the bombardment of Dou Sheng Expert without being destroyed, was now riddled with dents from the two's battle.

Xiao Han's white robe was covered by a solid layer of Frost Battle Armor, his face was completely covered by a mask with ice dragon patterns, and he held a blue spear. Every move he made resembled a warrior charging into battle.

Before him stood a figure radiating brilliant golden light, somewhat resembling the Arhats and Buddhas of the Buddhist cultivators of Central Plains. The crisp sound produced each time it clashed with Xiao Han's spear proved the terrifying hardness of this golden body.

"The Spear Lock, the Dark Sun!"

Xiao Han's spear traced an eerie arc, and a cold star pierced through space, instantly appearing before Huang Jing Tian's eyes. The spear exuded a dense Cold Qi, and the latter seemed to see the glorious sun freeze, fall, and plunge into darkness under this spear.

Immediately, Huang Jing Tian awoke from the illusion, filled with ecstasy. He stepped back slightly, and a circle of Light Seal swirled in his palm, absorbing the surrounding space.

"Barbarian King Art, Void-Cleansing Seal!"

It then slammed down with a cold, sharp blow!
