I'm in Shrouding the Heavens Practicing Eternal Life

“I want to challenge you.”

“Alright.”

Tianzi was somewhat surprised when Huang suddenly walked up to him and issued the challenge, but he agreed.

Although he didn't know why Huang would suddenly challenge him, he was not afraid and accepted.

Shi Hao didn't expect the Ten Crown King to agree so readily. He had originally prepared some remarks, but this was good. A real man should fear nothing!

The Violet Jade Spirit asked him to beat the first two people he saw, but with a condition: 'worthy of a fight'.

As a result, many geniuses recognized by everyone were not considered 'worthy of a fight' in the eyes of the Violet Jade Spirit and were directly rejected. Many so-called peerless geniuses who had cultivated three strands of immortal energy were nothing in the eyes of the Violet Jade Spirit. Shi Hao could feel the disdain transmitted through the Violet Jade.

Shi Hao recalled what the elders had once said:

Some people's immortal energy is not cultivated by themselves but transplanted onto their bodies through special methods.

Now it seems that this is indeed the case; they were disliked by the Violet Jade Spirit.

Your immortal energy is too fake.

He learned the two Ten Ferocious Techniques very quickly because within the two clusters of runes, there was some understanding of the Ten Ferocious Techniques from the Violet Jade Spirit. This was an understanding of precious techniques from a creature about to become an immortal!

Moreover, although the Violet Jade was heavy, forcing him to use his strength to support it at all times, in addition to replenishing vitality, it also had a special enlightenment effect. When practicing, a halo of wisdom would emanate from the Violet Jade, allowing Shi Hao to be in a state of enlightenment at any time, and his cultivation speed was extremely fast.

Therefore, despite obtaining the Nine Nether Hound precious technique and the True Phoenix precious technique in a short time, Shi Hao had cultivated the two precious techniques to an extremely profound level in a short period, even surpassing those he had obtained before.

“What? Huang wants to compete with the Ten Crown King?”

“This is a major event. I don't know what happened between these two people that they want to compete.”

“Quick, call people! This is a great show.”

… …

The Heavenly Deity Academy became lively. Duels between geniuses often occur, but duels between the strongest figures like the Ten Crown King and Huang are rare; they don't clash easily.

‘Challenge two at the same time.’

From within the Violet Jade, Luo Mo suddenly transmitted a divine thought.

Shi Hao: … …

With just a touch of your lips, I have to give it my all.

The Ten Crown King is a fierce person. Shi Hao felt that fighting one Ten Crown King was barely within his grasp, but if you add another one, and a super expert of the Ten Crown King's level, then there is no hope.

As peerless geniuses, none of us are made of clay. A two-on-one is too difficult.

‘Don't, they have their own pride and shouldn't accept the challenge, bullying the few with the many.’ Shi Hao rejected the proposal.

‘Wager two Ten Ferocious Techniques as a bet.’

Luo Mo's words made Shi Hao choke back his refusal.

Although everyone has self-esteem and pride and disdains a two-on-one, if you use two Ten Ferocious Techniques as a bet, then there's nothing to say; they will definitely want them.

But the mischievous child was also very clever and immediately thought of a possibility: ‘Do you want to trick them out of their Ten Ferocious Techniques?’

‘Can what I do be called tricking? It's called willingly accepting defeat!’

Shi Hao: Ah, yes, yes, yes.

‘Are you sure you want to do this? I'm confident in fighting one, but I'm really not sure about two.’

Even Shi Hao himself didn't feel that he could deal with two experts like the Ten Crown King at the same time.

Although he also wanted to get his hands on other people's precious techniques, he had to be able to do it.

‘We'll know after fighting. I'll see where your weaknesses are and help you fill in the gaps.’

Shi Hao's eyes lit up.

Having such a strong person to help find weaknesses is a great thing.

It's just a pity about the two precious techniques, and I might get beaten up.

‘Let's do it!’

Don't be cowardly! For a more powerful cultivation, for a creature about to become an immortal to help find weaknesses, it's worth it!

They went to a battlefield in the Heavenly Deity Academy used for competitions, attracting many people along the way to watch the excitement. Hearing that Huang was going to compete with the Ten Crown King, everyone stopped cultivating and called their friends to watch the fun.

Even the elders of the Heavenly Deity Academy heard the news and ran over, hiding their figures around to watch this dragon-tiger fight.

Shi Hao and the Ten Crown King entered the academy's battlefield. Shi Hao's eyes swept across the crowd, then locked onto a woman with unparalleled elegance. She was very beautiful, but when Shi Hao saw her, his expression became strange, and he muttered, ‘Why choose her?’

Then he pointed his finger.

“Wang Xi, you come too!”

Wang Xi, a genius woman from the Wang family, a long-lived family. The Wang family has the peerless precious technique, the Rebellion Suppression Art, one of the three strongest sword techniques in the world.

Wang Xi, who came to watch the excitement after hearing that Huang was challenging the Ten Crown King, was a little puzzled. What does this have to do with me? Aren't you two going to duel?

The Ten Crown King also asked, “What are you calling her for?”

“One is not enough; the two of you can come together.” Shi Hao's expression was exceptionally annoying when he said this.

The crowd watching in the academy were extremely surprised. This Huang is really bold, daring to challenge the Ten Crown King to compete, but to say he wants to challenge two people at the same time is just nonsense!

The Ten Crown King's face darkened. “I don't have time to fool around with you!”

After speaking, he turned to leave. As a genius, he has his own pride. In a one-on-one battle, he is never afraid of anyone, but asking him to join forces with another person to deal with a peer is an insult to him!

But just after he turned around, exclamations rang out around him.

“That is — —”

“That's right!”

“Huang actually has these two precious techniques!”

The Ten Crown King couldn't help but turn his head when he heard the voices of the people around him, and he saw what was in Shi Hao's hands.

In his left hand was a ferocious beast condensed from runes, with black armor and red fur, a ferocious appearance, and the power of destruction surging. Just a glance from afar made people feel frightened.

Nine Nether Hound!

This should be the Nine Nether Hound among the Ten Ferocious Beasts recorded in ancient books, composed of runes. This is the precious technique of the Nine Nether Hound clan!

And in Shi Hao's right hand was a True Phoenix flapping its wings, also composed of runes.

True Phoenix Precious Technique!

The two great Ten Ferocious Techniques appeared in Shi Hao's hands, attracting everyone's attention. Even the elders of the Heavenly Deity Academy who were observing in secret revealed their figures.

“That's right, it's the Nine Nether Hound precious technique and the True Phoenix precious technique among the Ten Ferocious Techniques!”

“Hasn't Huang already displayed the Kun Peng precious technique and the Lightning Emperor precious technique? It turns out that it wasn't his full strength at all; he was still hiding something!”

“Four great Ten Ferocious Techniques gathered in one body; he is truly loved by fortune.”

“Too lucky.”

Even the Great Elder of the Heavenly Deity Academy, Meng Tianzheng, showed himself, looking at Shi Hao with a smile on his face.

Even the gaze of the Ten Crown King lingered on the two Supreme Treasure Techniques of the Ten Ferocious, as he asked, "What is the meaning of this?"

"This is the wager. If you win, you can learn these two treasure techniques," Shi Hao said.

A clamor erupted around them, and many people became excited.

"To take out the Supreme Treasure Techniques of the Ten Ferocious as bets, what a grand gesture."

"No one can refuse such a temptation, right?"

Some were so excited that they stepped forward and shouted, "Huang, I will fight you!"

Shi Hao glanced at him, then casually said, "You're not good enough. You're not qualified."

When his gaze swept over someone, the Purple Jade Lifeform would give a hint, indicating whether that person could be his opponent. In this case, the Purple Jade Lifeform expressed disdain.

Brother, is your immortal energy transplanted?

"Don't look down on people!"

The man was furious, and flames erupted from his pores, transforming into a Flame God. His body flowed with the essence of flame, turning everything he passed into molten lava. The space seemed to collapse, making him exceptionally terrifying.

But Shi Hao simply formed a hand seal with his left hand, and an eye of destruction opened, releasing the aura of destruction from the Nine Netherworlds. It transformed into a dark black ray that pierced through the Flame God with a single blow. Nothing could stop it. A large hole appeared in his chest, and the dark power of destruction was continuously eroding his body. What essence of flame? Everything was annihilated under the power of destruction, about to annihilate his body and drag his primordial spirit down to the abyss of the Nine Netherworlds.

He circulated various wondrous techniques, and the divine fire in his body surged, trying to extinguish the power of destruction in the large hole in his chest, but it was ineffective. The more intense his struggle, the more excited the power of destruction became, gradually spreading throughout his body, about to destroy his tangible form.

A golden light flashed, and the Great Elder Meng Tianzheng of the Heaven Mending Pavilion made a move, dispelling the power of destruction.

"Great Elder."

"Great Elder."

The surrounding people respectfully saluted, because the Great Elder's cultivation was unrivaled in the human world, virtually invincible below the level of immortals. Even the various great families had to give him face.

The Great Elder Meng Tianzheng came between Shi Hao and the Ten Crown King and asked Shi Hao, "Are you sure you want to challenge them both, and use the Nine Nether Hound Treasure Technique and the True Phoenix Treasure Technique as wagers?"

"Yes, Great Elder."

The Great Elder Meng Tianzheng nodded, then looked at the Ten Crown King, "If you are willing to accept the challenge, then bring out an equal wager."

The Ten Crown King looked troubled, because he only had the True Dragon Treasure Technique among the Supreme Treasure Techniques of the Ten Ferocious, and the wagers were not equal.

At this moment, Shi Hao received a voice transmission from Luo Mo, and his expression became strange. He muttered, "This is acceptable? Isn't that too cheap for them?"

However, these two treasure techniques were given to him by Luo Mo, so he would do as Luo Mo said.

So he said to the Ten Crown King and Wang Xi, "How about this? If you win, you can both learn these two treasure techniques. Even if you lose, you are allowed to choose one."

What the heck?

Such a good thing exists!

Many people became excited. Even if they lost, they would still get a Supreme Treasure Technique of the Ten Ferocious. I can do it too!

But Shi Hao's previous move had suppressed them. Ordinary prodigies did not dare to act rashly, and those who were confident in their strength did not dare to be presumptuous in front of the Great Elder.

"Then what is the price?" Wang Xi asked. She didn't believe that a pie would fall from the sky.

"If you lose—" Shi Hao pointed at the Ten Crown King, "I want your True Dragon Treasure Technique."

The Ten Crown King nodded, "Okay."

Although it was a bit shameless that they could get a Supreme Treasure Technique of the Ten Ferocious even if they lost, the Ten Crown King did not refuse. After all, it was a Supreme Treasure Technique of the Ten Ferocious. Of course, he was also confident that he would not lose.

Then Shi Hao pointed at Wang Xi, "I want your Wang family's Rebellion Suppression Art."

Wang Xi shook her head, "The Rebellion Suppression Art is not my personal property, but the Wang family's secret that is not passed on to outsiders. Change the condition."

"Then you owe me a favor, and I will bring it up when I think of it in the future."

Shi Hao felt that this was too cheap for the Wang family, but the Purple Jade Lifeform wanted him to do this, saying that it could be manipulated through karma to steal the Rebellion Suppression Art.

Shi Hao didn't understand the specific operation, but he would just do as he was told, so that he could have a chance to observe the Rebellion Suppression Art in the future.

He had been coveting the Wang family's Rebellion Suppression Art for a long time, but what was circulating outside was only the superficial part. The true Rebellion Suppression Art was only passed down within the Wang family.

Wang Xi originally wanted to refuse, but after seeing the two Supreme Treasure Techniques of the Ten Ferocious in Shi Hao's hands, she really couldn't say any words of refusal. Even though she was a disciple of the Wang family, a longevity family, and had one of the Three Great Sword Arts, the Rebellion Suppression Art, she still wanted the Supreme Treasure Techniques of the Ten Ferocious. After all, it never hurts to have more skills.

"Okay."

What's more, she didn't think she would lose.

'Tsk, she's hooked,' Luo Mo teased.

'Where is she hooked? Looking at this situation, I'm going to be beaten up by them together!' Shi Hao quickly asked for help.

'Don't worry, with me here, you won't be beaten to death at least. Your life can still be saved.'

Shi Hao: Then I really thank you!

"Since it's settled, let's begin."

The Great Elder Meng Tianzheng's figure disappeared in an instant, leaving the battlefield to the three young people.

In an instant, the Ten Crown King and Wang Xi both burst forth at the same time. The Ten Crown King unleashed the True Dragon Fist, his fist exuding an aura that dominated mountains and rivers, showing no mercy because it was two against one, respecting Shi Hao as an opponent.

Wang Xi wanted to show some restraint, her sword light dazzling, like wandering silk and drizzling rain, covering Shi Hao's surroundings, forcing him to fight the Ten Crown King head-on, wanting to win this battle as soon as possible while also being unwilling to hurt Shi Hao.

But in the next moment, the dazzling sword light shattered completely, and a terrifying aura soared from Shi Hao's body. The phantom of the Nine Nether Hound roared behind him, and a destructive light wave shot out in a straight line, shattering the Ten Crown King's Dragon Fist, forcing him to use the True Dragon Movement Technique to dodge. The destructive light wave swept away several mountain peaks, and the destructive aura swept across the battlefield, causing people's minds to sway.

"The Nine Nether Hound Treasure Technique is so powerful?"

"Even the Dragon Fist can't withstand it!"

The Ten Crown King suppressed the palpitation in his heart. That kind of power could affect the mind, dragging people from matter to soul into the abyss of destruction. It was a pure art of destruction, extremely terrifying. No wonder it was the most ruthless among the Ten Ferocious, representing the Nine Nether Hound of destruction!

Moreover, Shi Hao used it with exceptional skill, completely unlike the quality that a cultivator of this realm should have. The Ten Crown King himself had comprehended the True Dragon Treasure Technique for many years, but he had not reached Shi Hao's level of proficiency with the Nine Nether Hound Treasure Technique.

After all, when Shi Hao obtained the Nine Nether Hound Treasure Technique and the True Phoenix Treasure Technique, he also had a cultivation experience. His application of the two great treasure techniques had already surpassed other treasure techniques.

Beams of destructive light shot out from Shi Hao's eyes from time to time, each containing astonishing power. Even if the Ten Crown King and Wang Xi joined forces, they didn't dare to take them head-on and could only dodge. One after another, treasure techniques filled with the power of destruction flew from Shi Hao's hands, and the bombardment of spells was like a torrential rain from the heavens, continuous and endless, with infinite divine power. The two of them were actually being suppressed and beaten by one person.

This scene caught everyone off guard.
