The Five-Mountain Bracelets broke into pieces.

Peak Qian-level… The presence of a power beyond peak Qian-level suddenly burst out.

Su Han's skirt bulged up abruptly.

More than 40,000 sword energies that dashed toward her and instantly turned around!

The longsword in Su Han's hand emitted dazzling green lights.

Hao Ren who was a few hundred meters away was stunned.

Hao Ren has tried the Five-Mountain Bracelets before. It could suppress most of the nature essence in one's body, and it was 100 times stronger than the Mount Tai Bracelets which were just heavy.

Now, Su Han was wearing five Five-Mountain Bracelets!

It meant that she had been suppressing her strength and forcing herself to cultivate while wearing the Five-Mountain Bracelets! These five Five-Mountain Bracelets at least locked 60 percent of her nature essence. She was only using 40 percent of her nature essence, and that reached peak Qian-level ready!

Using the Five-Mountain Bracelets to suppress her nature essence and force herself to cultivate would indeed be effective. However, it was too crazy to wear Five-Mountain Bracelets long-term and cultivate until reaching the peak Qian-level!

Su Han might have been wearing these Five-Mountain Bracelets ever since she entered the Dragon G.o.d Shrine without taking them off!

If she was capable of fending Zhao Kuo's sword array formation, she might be wearing it until she charged at the Heavenly Dragon Realm!

Whoos.h.!.+

Zhao Kuo felt a powerful pressure that pressed toward him and was shocked when he saw hundreds of sword energies flying back like waves.

He had already paid attention to Su Han. He discovered that her realm wasn't low, but her strength was normal and wasn't above-par.

The cultivators like him who raised their realms through wars and battles looked down at the cultivators like Su Han who relied solely on cultivation to raise her realm.

Who could have thought that Su Han was wearing Five-Mountain Bracelets and fighting against herself every minute and every second!

Bam! Bam! Bam! Zhao Kuo rotated his Black Dragon Spike quickly and blocked the sword energies that were sent back.

These sword energies were composed of the five-elemental nature essence. Although they were disarrayed when they came back, Zhao Kuo's arms were still numb.

Unexpectedly, Su Han revealed her hidden strength!

Zhao Kuo was happy instead of afraid and yelled loudly, “Great!”

His Black Dragon Spike emitted black lights, and the thick murderous spirit almost solidified into black sand.

Su Han's gaze was extremely calm.

Zhao Kuo forced her to shatter the Five-Mountain Bracelets. He was indeed powerful! If she didn't shatter the Five-Mountain Bracelets, she couldn't take more than five of his strikes!

Cold breeze surrounded the Dragon G.o.d Shrine instantly.

Icicles suddenly covered the black Dragon G.o.d Shrine that had a layer of red light around it, and the icicles hung on the four corners of the Dragon G.o.d Shrine.

Those level 1 and level 2 Inspectors almost couldn't resist this coldness that could freeze their meridians.

Suddenly, the top level of the Dragon G.o.d Shrine released a layer of light and covered the inspectors near the Dragon G.o.d Shrine, making them feel the warmth of spring instantly.

On the side of the East Dragon Ocean Clan, Zhao Hongyu raised the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting, transforming it into a dome-like s.p.a.ce and surrounded many cultivators.

The wind and snow in the area were two times colder than before! If not for the coverage of Zhao Hongyu's dharma treasure, these young dragon cultivators would be freezing to death right away!

All of Su Han's strength burst out, and it could kill cultivators below Gen-level easily.

“Great! Great! Great!” Zhao Kuo who jumped up yelled.

The stronger Su Han was, the more excited he got. Originally, he thought that Su Han couldn't even fight back. However, it was merely a warm-up for Su Han, and she was really putting all her effort in now!

Su Han's thin lips were pressed together, and she swung the longsword. Countless ice and snow spun and rushed toward Zhao Kuo.

When one cultivated to the peak Qian-level, he or she would have already surpa.s.sed the level of cultivation technique and was capable of comprehending the natural laws. Su Han obtained the Sky-Patching Scroll from the Nine Dragon Palace. The more she thought about it, the more profound it seemed.

As she fought against Zhao Kuo now, her understanding increased, and her strength was condensed into her sword.

Feeling that the nature essence was tilting toward him, Zhao Kuo quickly moved his nature essence and used a sword array formation for defense.

He suppressed Su Han a while back, but he felt weaker now.

However, this was what he wanted!

Zhao Kuo wanted to find a master who could pressure him and help him break through his limit!

The Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll also borrowed the power of nature to unleash attacks!

The sword energies were dense and connected; they created an array formation for slaughter!

The two cultivators both borrowed the power of nature, and the platform that extended from the center of the Dragon G.o.d Shrine was shattered into pieces.

The Dragon G.o.d Shrine and the large platform relied on the array formation to maintain their stability, and the core of the array formation was meant to absorb the nature essence in the area.

At this moment, the nature essence was drawn away by Zhao Kuo and Su Han, and there wasn't enough nature essence for the array formation.

The platform broke and dropped piece by piece, and the Dragon G.o.d Shrine had also begun to wobble.

“Shrine Master!”

On the top level of the Dragon G.o.d Shrine, nine Deputy Shrine Masters looked at the Shrine Master in panic.

The Shrine Master who was wearing a black robe stood still in this wobbling Dragon G.o.d Shrine and looked calm.

Hao Ren reached out to grab Xie Yujia and Zhao Yanzi who stood beside him. He was afraid that they would fall from the constantly shrinking platform.

In the frosty mist, Hao Ren suddenly saw the Heavenly Dragon cultivator who appeared on Eighth Heaven. He didn't know when she appeared or what time she came!

Bam!

The white platform that supported the black Dragon G.o.d Shrine had lost a large section.

Su Han and Zhao Kuo had already struck at each other many times in the thick frosty snow and messy sword energies.

At this moment, those low-leveled cultivators didn't dare to look up while those high-leveled cultivators widened their eyes but still couldn't see everything clearly!

Su Han's longsword created many sword shadows. After removing the Five-Mountain Bracelets, she was now swift. It seemed like there were more than dozens of Su Han moving in the sky and leaving behind shadows.

Zhao Kuo's Black Dragon Spike controlled dense sword energies, and his body bugled up, increasing the size of the black armor and looking invincible.

Peng!

The Dragon G.o.d Shrine started to fall to the ground.

Zhao Kuo and Su Han suck away the nature essence within 10,000 kilometers of the Dragon G.o.d Shrine.

Peng!

A red glow shot through the white fog and quickly struck toward the east.

Creak!

To the surprise of the Deputy Shrine Masters, the Dragon G.o.d Shrine suddenly stopped falling.

The ice-cold white mist started to disperse.

Zhao Kuo whose shoulder was pierced through by a sword landed with one knee on the ground, and the blood gushed out from the back of his shoulder.

Su Han stood there quietly and pulled back her longsword; everyone was stunned.

The platform of the Dragon G.o.d Shrine raised slowly and returned to its original alt.i.tude.

“I'll be charging at the Heavenly Dragon Realm in three days,” Su Han said calmly.

This sentence sounded like she was talking to Zhao Kuo but also announcing it to everyone.

Peng! Su Han landed on one foot before flying toward the Dragon G.o.d Shrine.

The inspectors who were near the Dragon G.o.d Shrine dodged quickly but could only see Su Han's back.

“Third… Third Uncle!”

Zhao Yanzi was the first to react and ran toward Zhao Kuo.

Hao Ren finally reacted as well, and he strode out and held Zhao Kuo before Zhao Yanzi.

Xie Yujia ran over quickly, took out an elixir pill from her storage bracelet, and put it in Zhao Kuo's hand.

Zhao Kuo remained kneeling on one knee. It seemed like he didn't understand how he lost.

Zhao Yanzi felt sad when she saw Zhao Kuo like this. Yet, she was relieved when she saw that Zhao Kuo didn't suffer any severe injuries. It was probably because Su Han went easy on him.

Zhao Hongyu and Zhao Guang ran over quickly as well, and they were slightly shocked when they saw that Xie Yujia took out a level 5 Detox Pill.

In fact, Xie Yujia had created a batch of elixir pills when she reached the Core Formation Realm and successfully made level 5 elixir pills. However, she didn't intend to spread the news around.

“Third Brother…” Zhao Guang patted Zhao Kuo's shoulder to comfort him.

He knew that this failure would be a serious setback for Zhao Kuo. All sorts of reputation and respect were secondary; the most important thing was that he lost his qualification in charging at the Heavenly Dragon Realm.

The battle between him and Su Han was more of the contest for the chance of charging at the Heavenly Dragon Realm.

Only the strongest dragon cultivator had the chance of charging at the Heavenly Dragon Realm, and that was why Zhao Kuo tried to maintain his status. Yet, Su Han was stronger than him, and this meant that he didn't have the chance of charging at the Heavenly Dragon Realm anymore.

In contrast, Su Han defeated Zhao Kuo and gained confidence in charging at the Heavenly Dragon Realm, and she wouldn't hesitate. After resting for three days, she would be charging at the Heavenly Dragon Realm in her best condition.

This also proved that Su Han wasn't injured in this battle!

The generals of East Ocean stood still foolishly and didn't know what to do. Su Han defeated the No.1 Master of East Ocean.

“Third Uncle, let's treat your injury first,” Hao Ren said.

In every battle, there would be a winner and a loser. Hao Ren was grateful that neither of them was heavily injured.

However, for Zhao Kuo who was completely focused on charging at the Heavenly Dragon Realm, losing to Su Han meant losing the opportunity of charge at the Heavenly Dragon Realm. This ma.s.sive blow might be even worse than the failure in the Heavenly Tribulation.

“Third Lord…”

Those generals ran over and kneeled in front of Zhao Kuo.

“Ay…” Zhao Kuo sighed, finally seeming to come back from the defeat and swallowed the level 5 Detox Pill.

He cultivated for more than 200 years and reached peak Qian-level twice, but he still couldn't defeat Su Han who cultivated only for more than 20 years.

She wasn't just a prodigy but a monster!

Zhao Kuo was unwilling to accept defeat, but he lost fair and square.

“I thought I was the best in the world. Now, it seems like I can't blame the Heaven Dao when I failed the Heavenly Tribulation last time!” he thought.

Zhao Kuo stood up right away, and he flew toward the East Ocean Dragon Palace without caring about the bleeding injury.

He was going into seclusion cultivation to self-examine and cultivate desperately!

Elder Xingyue in white shook her head helplessly and chased.

Hao Ren turned his head to look at the black Dragon G.o.d Shrine. After thinking for a bit, he flew out of Dragon G.o.d Shrine.
