The supreme heaven mystic realm became smaller by the minute, and everyone could sense it already. By the next morning, the sky reaching mountain with the snow caped peak was no longer just a distant outline to all the geniuses. Today was the third day since the supreme heaven mystic realm opened. This was the final deciding day according to the rules, otherwise the geniuses would be reduced to fleeing for their lives. By the end of this day, peak imperial realm beasts could appear!
A single of those would cause an absolute bloodshed in the supreme heaven mystic realm. And apparently, the cities would lose their protection today as well. Although they didn't really understand how that would happen, everyone both within and outside the cities was tense. As the mystic realm shrunk to half of it's size, the eight cities were already visible to each other and the center mountain was similarly visible as well.
The landscape seemed to just be silently merging into each other, leaving no trace of the valleys, forests and other sights that existed. At this moment, at the foot of the center mountain, Huang Fang Hao's eyes fluttered open, his black pupils glimmering coldly. The beasts corpses around him had long since surpassed a thousand in numbers and over a hundred of them had the auras of Imperial beasts. The strongest among the corpses gave off an aura stronger than even Jin Bao!
But they all had the same fate before Huang Fang Hao; dead! His aura began to stir underneath his skin and he swept his gaze across the eight cities surrounded by tall metal walls.
"This is enough. It's time for me to move" he muttered, them vanished instantly, leaving a faint afterimage where he once stood. Huang Fang Hao was the center of attention to all those watching from outside, and his movement was caught by many people.
"Huang Fang Hao has moved!"
"What? Where did he go?"
"Isn't that obvious, dimwit? A show is about to begin!" Many people began to search for Huang Fang Hao's figure in the screen, looking for his whereabouts. Huang Fang Hao had suddenly appeared before a peak spirit realm genius of a high ranked continents.
"Your token!" He ordered calmly without a change in his tone or expression. The youth's face turned colourful. He had been stopped by Mei Ling earlier and she had nearly stripped him bare. He was still feeling aggrieved after losing his first token and some of his treasures, but now he ran into Huang Fang Hao, the uncrowned leader of the seven overlords. He could only sigh and hand over his token without daring to speak. He had no doubts that if he said a single word of defiance, he would certainly regret it.
Huang Fang Hao grabbed the token and vanished without a word, appearing before a nearby rank seven spirit realm warrior and asking the same question with the exact same indifferent tone. The spectators outside watched with wide mouths as Huang Fang Hao moved from genius to genius, taking their tokens. The most absurd thing was that even the geniuses of his own Desolate Continent were not excluded!
They all handed over their tokens without a word when they met him and sent him off respectfully, as though that was the most natural thing to do. Since he didn't leave out his own fellow sect members, then it was definite that he didn't plan to give an exception to anyone.
"H- he wants to take everyone's token? Even if just once each, he would gather an unimaginable number of points! Isn't this against the rules?"
"What rules? There's only one rule; and that is the strongest always wins. Even the envoys know this and that is why they're seeking the strongest. Rules are bullshit before power!" A red faced young lady stared at Huang Fang Hao through the screen with fervent admiration. Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings. Almost all young ladies watching Huang Fang Hao's dazzling feat were filled with similar feelings of admiration and fanaticism.
Huang Fang Hao was unaware of all these, and even if he was aware, he would still remain indifferent. He continued his actions, gathering dozens of tokens in a short time. A rank two Imperial level genius from the thunder sky continent had hesitated to hand over his token earlier. Before anyone could react, a hole appeared through his chest, nearly grazing his beating heart. It wasn't fatal but it made the genius's legs to turn to jelly and he knelt on the ground, terrified.
He hadn't even seen Huang Fang Hao moved. All he sensed was the sharp pain in his chest and the flowing blood. He handed over his token with shivering arms and fled immediately, looking for a place to heal. Huang Fang Hao was like a plague in the mystic realm. As if shrank further, it brought all the geniuses over to him for him to take their tokens. And judging by his direction, he was headed towards the Southern City!
It took just an incense stick worth of time for him to arrive at the city gate after stopping by anyone he met and taking their tokens. The wild beasts gathered around the city gate began to roar ferociously when he approached, baring their fangs at him. There were over a hundred peak spirit level beasts among them, dozens of rank one and two Imperial beasts, a few rank three Imperials and one rank four Imperial beasts leading them.
This force alone could deter any genius in the mystic realm, including the Overlord geniuses. Jin Bao alone wouldn't dare to head over here to face these beasts. But Huang Fang Hao's expression didn't even change. He barely seemed to notice their auras as he approached, stepping through the air as though he was walking on the solid earth. The agitated wild beasts began to rush at him, their combined auras blotting the sky. Huang Fang Hao paused, stared at the wild beasts charging over then flicked his wrist.
A golden spear appeared in his right hand which he flourished, leaving a dazzling beam of golden glow in the air. His overwhelming Spear Dao energy erupted again, piercing into the sky and spreading across the entire mystic realm, causing widespread shock among all the geniuses. Earlier, the mystic realm was too large and so only the strongest geniuses had sensed his ridiculous Spear Dao. But now, everyone could sense it, from the weakest rank six spirit realm warriors to the overlord geniuses.
They were all astounded by the sheer power of his spear Dao. They weren't close to him, but they felt as though a huge spear was pointed right at their foreheads. Long Feng's pupils shrank in the northwest city and his spirit energy nearly erupted instinctively without his control. This was just how much caution his instincts felt towards Huang Fang Hao. Huang Fang Hao raised his spear straight with the tip pointed at the hundreds of wild beasts rushing towards him.
The tip of the spear glowed with a piercing glint. Then he thrust out the spear. A single casual stab at thin air aimed at the hundreds of wild beasts. A beam of light shot out from the spear tip and rapidly expanded as it flew till it became like an enormous horizontal spear that devoured the hundreds of wild beasts. A huge explosion echoed throughout the supreme heaven mystic realm and a great shockwave spread out. A minor earthquake also seemed to hit the mystic realm as all the cities began to rumble.
Large cracks spread out across the ground from where Huang Fang Hao's attack had landed and a portion of the Southern City wall collapsed along with the gate. When the dust settled, the spectators were horrified to see that all the wild beasts were completely vaporized! Not even a drop of blood was left where almost a thousand wild beasts stood!
From the rank seven spirit level beasts to the single rank four Imperial level wild beast, they were all gone, leaving a wide and deep crater filled with piercing spear energy remnant. The feelings the spectating juniors outside had was no longer just shock and admiration. It was now true horror at Huang Fang Hao's strength! A rank four Imperial level wild beast was vaporized as well with a single attack! This was beyond shocking. It was terrifying to these eliminated youths.
Huang Fang Hao stood calmly, his expression completely unchanged by the destruction he just caused. He took a step forward and appeared within the Southern City, floating above and looking down at all the terrified youths that hid inside.
"Your tokens!" He ordered in his signature Indifferent tone. The youths were still dazed after witnessing Huang Fang Hao's strength, and they naturally didn't have the guts to refuse him. They all handed over their tokens respectfully, unable to hide the horror and awe in their eyes. Huang Fang Hao collected dozens of tokens and vanished immediately without a trace, continuing on his path. This time, he headed towards the Southeast City, stopping by anyone he met and taking their tokens as he moved.
The entire mystic realm was shaken by Huang Fang Hao's attack. Although none of the geniuses had witnessed it except for those in the Southern City, everyone has felt the shockwave. The expressions of all six other overlord geniuses and Long Feng all changed.
"This is Huang Fang Hao's energy? He is much stronger than Jin Bao!" Long Feng gasped. He didn't expect that Huang Fang Hao was so unbelievable. Just the shockwave that spread earlier let Long Feng know that Jin Bao was definitely far from being Huang Fang opponent.
"The seven overlords are truly deserving of their titles. They're all more monstrous than the other!" Long Feng furrowed his brows and quickly decided to leave the city. He wasn't of the opinion to sit still and wait for whatever was coming to find him. He had a feeling that staying in the cities right now wasn't the best idea. With this thought, he immediately left the Northwest City without alerting anyone. His attention was quickly drawn to the tall mountain in the center of this world.
He instantly realized that the mystic realm had shrank greatly. When he looked around, he could view the distant cities far away. Calculating the direction from where he sensed Huang Fang Hao's energy, Long Feng realized that it came from the Southern City. That meant Huang Fang Hao was there, or around that area. As for what he was doing there? That was something only he would know. But Long Feng was perfectly willing to steer clear of that place.
He wasn't at all willing to meet Huang Fang Hao, because he honestly didn't have an ounce of confidence in facing that guy. But then again, the entire mystic realm was slowly shrinking. Soon, they would probably all meet at one point, unless they were reduced to three hundred geniuses before then and the mystic realm closed. Long Feng threw these thoughts aside and began to slaughter more wild beasts again while keeping away from the Southern area.
The sun rose high in the sky, showering the realm with it's burning heat energy, dying everything in a fiery red hue. Some people would occasionally look up and wonder if this sun was also an illusion, a fake. The outside spectators began to boil with excitement at this moment. Their gazes were focused on the screen, following Huang Fang Hao's every movement. And right now, Huang Fang Hao had finally paused, truly paused for the first time since he made his move and after gathering over a hundred tokens.
Standing across from him was a thin youth, handsome and calm with an unfettered smile. He gave off a feeling similar to a cloud in the sky that as slowly moving, faint, unreachable yet it was definitely there. Ping Ran of the Drifting Clouds Overlord Continent! One of the seven overlord geniuses! Otherwise known as The Cloud Saber! Finally, Huang Fang Hao had met a real opponent.
The two overlord geniuses stood far apart, staring at each other; Ping Ran calm yet cautious while Huang Fang Hao was as indifferent as always. After what seemed like an eternity, Ping Ran opened his mouth and spoke faintly,"Huang Fang Hao, this isn't the time nor the place for us to fight. We'll meet in the next round and decide who is stronger between us eventually." Saying this, Ping Ran turned around and was about to walk away. Many people watching with expectation sighed in disappointment.
They were truly expecting to watch a great fight between two overlords. Just as they thought this fight wouldn't occur, Huang Fang Hao finally spoke in his eternally indifferent tone,"Your token!"
