Chapter 1243: Hong Meng Dragon Tree
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Yuan Venerates would not fight physically, as their powers could crush and overturn mountains and rivers.
However, there were no such restrictions in the fight between Luo Yunyang and Yuan Monarch Xingyuan. As Yuan Monarchs, they were fully capable of controlling their auras and powers.
Thus, it often seemed to ordinary martialists that there was no discernible might in their bouts.
Yuan Monarch Xingyuan, who was a high-level Yuan Monarch of the Taixu Sect, was extremely arrogant and resented Luo Yunyang very much for rebuking him.
He felt extremely bitter and resentful!
Hence, Yuan Monarch Xingyuan took the initiative and threw a mere punch.
A punch that contained all the sky laws he controlled!
The move was simple, so he clenched his fist and blasted it forward!
Some of the attendants in Nantuo City watched the punch blankly, as it exceeded their level of understanding.
From their point of view, a Yuan Monarch was a legendary figure depicted only in books or legends of the past. In their opinion, a conflict or battle between two Yuan Monarchs should at least amount to an earth-shaking sequence.
However, they actually did not feel any form of might when Yuan Monarch Xingyuan made his move.
Weren’t top-notch beings capable of moving mountains and overturning oceans?
Why would the exalted Yuan Monarch who had descended upon them and suppressed their City Lord with ease execute such an ordinary move?
That’s right! It was ordinary!
This was the only word that could describe Yuan Monarch Xingyuan’s move.
However, Yuan Venerate Rihui and Yuan Venerate Yueyao both felt intimidated and frightened by Yuan Monarch Xingyuan’s execution.
While they claimed to be Shentian Taiyi Yuan Venerates, they realized what the disparity between them and Yuan Monarch Xingyuan was after seeing his move.
The attacks of a Yuan Monarch did not need to cause major disturbance or use over-exaggerated movements.
After all, they essentially represented the heavens and the right way!
Ordinary techniques were basically futile against a Yuan Monarch.
Yuan Monarch Xingyuan merely threw a punch, yet it contained a power capable of crushing anything.
Luo Yunyang sensed the power within the punch of Yuan Monarch Xingyuan and understood Yuan Monarch Xingyuan’s intention.
The punch of Yuan Monarch Xingyuan actually intended to shatter Luo Yunyang’s resistance directly.
Luo Yunyang used his finger in retaliation against Yuan Monarch Xingyuan’s intent, as it contained the destructive energy of the sixth-level Obliteration Finger he had comprehended.
Luo Yunyang had managed to comprehend the sixth level of the Obliteration Finger, and Yuan Monarch Xingyuan was merely the first person to experience its full might.
Finger and fist collided in the void!
Judging from their respective forms, it seemed as though Luo Yunyang’s finger was a tad inferior. However, there was no difference between a finger and a fist when it came to a Yuan Monarch.
Both contained the strongest power used by Luo Yunyang and Yuan Monarch Xingyuan.
Fist and finger collided in the void!
Immediately, Luo Yunyang felt a tremendous power within the fist surging toward him. It was as if he was facing the insurmountable power that had gathered within heaven and earth.
However, Yuan Monarch Xingyuan wasn’t having it easy either. The reason he used this simple yet direct method was to crush a newly-advanced Yuan Monarch once and for all!
To crush him swiftly and decisively. Instead, cracks began to appear on Yuan Monarch Xingyuan’s fist.
The sky laws under his control were formidable, but the obliterative intent sent forth by Luo Yunyang’s finger was much more majestic, violent, and crazed.
The cracks appeared, leaving him no choice but to open his fist so that his arm wouldn’t be shattered.
A Yuan Monarch could regenerate his limbs endlessly as long as he wished. However, even a Yuan Monarch cherished their own body very much.
In order to improve their battle prowess, Yuan Monarchs usually made tons of effort to strengthen their bodies to keep them in peak condition. While a regenerated limb or two functioned exactly the same way, they still performed a lot worse than the body that the Yuan Monarch had painstakingly strengthened.
“Release!” Realizing that things were heading south, Yuan Monarch Xingyuan rapidly accelerated the power within his body and unleashed yet another punch in Luo Yunyang’s direction.
However, he retracted his fist quickly before it was fully extended.
Luo Yunyang did not want to take advantage of this opportunity to punish Yuan Monarch Xingyuan for it. However, Yuan Monarch Xingyuan did live up to his own name, as the second wave of energy coming from his fist managed to block off the power of Luo Yunyang’s finger.
Luo Yunyang did not immediately unleash his attack again after seeing Yuan Monarch Xingyuan stagger back for a few steps as he merely stared at him.
“You’ve really surprised me!” Yuan Monarch Xingyuan told Luo Yunyang solemnly. “We do not need to continue anymore.”
After he said that, he gestured to the scrawny Yuan Venerate beside him and said, “Let’s go!”
Yuan Monarch Xingyuan said this rather nonchalantly, but the scrawny Yuan Venerate immediately looked really unhappy.
He had followed Yuan Monarch Xingyuan and waited on him submissively all because he yearned to take back everything he had lost. Now, they were actually going to leave just like that.
“Yuan Monarch, we can’t leave! What about the Hong Meng Dragon Tree?”
The scrawny Yuan Venerate would never have disclosed what he considered a secret in front of so many people if it weren’t for the fact that Nantuo City was extremely important to him. As a result, Yuan Monarch Xingyuan’s expression changed.
This brief confrontation made Yuan Monarch Xingyuan realize that he had been defeated. He wasn’t someone with a mild temper, so he was offended greatly by his subordinate’s unwillingness to leave and the fact that he’d shouted at him rudely. Such impudence was disrespectful.
“You can stay if you don’t want to leave.” He snapped right away.
After he said that, he turned to Luo Yunyang. “Nantuo City is not something you can hold on to. Listen to my advice and take the Nantuo City Lord out of here immediately. You might be able to stay alive if you do that. Otherwise, you might die without a proper burial even though you’re a Yuan Monarch!”
Upon saying that, Yuan Monarch Xingyuan turned and left. Although the pint-sized Yuan Venerate was unwilling to leave, he still left with Yuan Monarch Xingyuan when two Shentian Taiyi Yuan Venerates tugged at him.
Yuan Venerate Rihui and Yuan Venerate Yueyao were still in shock. They were really awed and stupefied by Luo Yunyang’s finger technique. They knew that they would be doomed to die if they were the ones challenging Luo Yunyang.
After all, that finger technique went beyond what they could handle even if they teamed up.
All the other Yuan Venerates in the alliance who had come along were also awed and shocked by the outcome.
They had originally thought that they would only obey Luo Yunyang, who was the Alliance Leader, nominally if his cultivation base was only on par with that of Yuan Venerate Rihui and Yueyao. Now, they were frightened to death by what Luo Yunyang had done.
They felt true fear that came from the bottom of their hearts!
“Thank you, Alliance Leader, for saving Nantuo City. I have no idea what the situation would have been like if you hadn’t arrived. In the future, I will do my utmost to do whatever you require!”
The Nantuo City Lord walked toward Luo Yunyang and bowed down respectfully as he spoke.
“The City Lord does not need to be so polite. As allies, we should join forces to help the members of our alliance,” Luo Yunyang gently told the Nantuo City Lord.
“Judging from the tone of Yuan Monarch Xingyuan, it seems like the situation in Nantuo City is not over. It has just begun!” Luo Yunyang chuckled as he continued.
The look on Nantuo City Lord’s face turned unsightly. He was really unwilling to speak out about the Hong Meng Dragon Tree.
It was, after all, a secret of great importance that would increase his strength by leaps and bounds to the extent that even Yuan Sages would no longer be a problem for him, let alone a mere Yuan Monarch.
However, the remarks made by Yuan Monarch Xingyuan made him realize that it was no longer possible for him to have the Hong Meng Dragon Tree all to himself. After all, this incident had attracted the attention of people like Yuan Monarch Xingyuan and even people that surpassed him by far.
Instead of incurring the wrath of Luo Yunyang by hiding the secrets of the Hong Meng Dragon Tree, it would be better for him to speak up honestly now.
Thus, after a moment of thought, the Nantuo City Lord decided to speak truthfully. “Alliance Leader and fellow Yuan Venerates, this is not a place to talk. Let’s head inside and I’ll give all of you a good explanation.”
The Nantuo City Lord led the way. Luo Yunyang and the rest entered a relatively small palace that was embedded with all sorts of seals. It had apparently been constructed to prevent anyone from eavesdropping.
“My fellow Daoists, all of you basically started from nothing, but I inherited Nantuo City.” The Nantuo City Lord started speaking when everyone was seated. “It’s just that Nantuo City has existed for so long that many people have forgotten how it came about. Even I, as the City Lord, have forgotten the reason Nantuo City exists.
“However, there’s an ancient existence that remembers Nantuo City and especially how important it is when a great calamity is about to happen.
“Alliance Leader and everyone here, the reason my city attracted the attention of those people is due to the Hong Meng Dragon Tree.”
