Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 308

Chapter 308 Broke Through After The Fight

Wu Haohan's movements became more exaggerated in the ring.

He even rolled like a donkey to dodge the gigantic beast's foot; he could not be bothered as long as he could stay alive.

Nonetheless, the more embarra.s.sed he looked, the more the crowd was shocked. The Yang Grade powerhouses kept exchanging glances and noticed how afraid they all were.

'What will happen if we were in his shoes and couldn't bear the attack?' They wondered.

All of a sudden, Wu Haohan gritted his teeth and charged at Ou Yangming. Judging from his action, he seemed like he wanted to perish with the young fellow. Nevertheless, when Wu Haohan was within 5 steps from Ou Yangming, he jumped left and right as though he was tremendously shocked. Right after he landed, he rolled backward and ran around the ring.

His breathing became heavier such that those who were nearer to the ring could hear him pant like a cow.

With a grave expression on her face, Wu Hanning called out to Ou Yangming, “Brother Ou, please show mercy!” Ou Yangming turned around and caught Wu Hanning's gaze, who was on another ring. When he looked at her graceful body, he recalled the pile of red and green clothes and somehow felt guilty.

He quickly looked away and withdrew his mental power. Wu Haohan, who was jumping around, tensed up and stopped at once. The daunting gigantic beast, which could extend across Heaven and Earth, disappeared.

The other people would be baffled, but being an imperial house martial artist, Wu Haohan knew the cultivation method of the mental power secret technique, so he was aware of the cause and effect.

When he was pursued by the gigantic beast, he was focused on escaping and had no time for other thoughts, but he came back to his senses once the beast vanished.

Wu Haohan lowered his head and looked at Ou Yangming in fear.

He finally understood why the first few Yin Grade martial artists pa.s.sed out earlier.

Spiritual pressure-it was because of spiritual pressure!

Before this, Wu Haohan guessed this as well, but he quickly cast aside the possibility. He did not believe that someone else other than Her Royal Highness could cultivate mental power to such an unbelievable stage.

However, after being hunted down by a mental-power-stimulated ancient beast, it would only be strange if he was still clueless about Ou Yangming's mental power.

Wu Haohan took a deep breath and was about to speak when his heart thudded.

His eyelids twitched, then he sat with his legs crossed and entered a wonderful state.

Ou Yangming was stunned. 'He has already been defeated. How can he be so thick-faced by staying in the ring…'

Despite that, Ou Yangming was too shy to drive Wu Haohan off the ring due to his status as an imperial family martial artist.

The crowd exhaled deeply as well. They did not know to laugh or to cry when Wu Haohan directed and performed the Shaman Dance on his own, but a feeling of fear somehow lingered between them, hence they dared not clamor.

When Wu Haohan was finally not being attacked by Ou Yangming's mental power anymore and collapsed, the crowd relaxed at the same time.

That said, they looked at Ou Yangming differently.

It might be accidental that Ou Yangming defeated a Yang Grade powerhouse, but it was definitely not fortuitous that he triumphed over two Yang Grade powerhouses in a row; he had to be truly skilled.

Perhaps one was only considered a genius if one was a Yin Grade martial artist but had powers superior to a Yang Grade powerhouse's.

The crowd focused on the victor and no longer paid attention to the loser even though the latter was one of the renowned powerhouses from the imperial family.

Despite that, some people finally noticed the abnormality in Wu Haohan after a brief moment.

“Why isn't Wu Haohan getting off the ring? Does he want to dominate the ring?”

“Heh, he gave his all just now, so is he worn out now?”

Questioning voices filled the air, but the guards around the ring were helpless.

They were imperial guards, so they would naturally handle the situation justly if someone else stayed on the ring without wanting to leave. However, Wu Haohan was an imperial family powerhouse, whose status was way above theirs, thus they dared not be unrestrained.

Having said that, they had to do something when the crowd began to discuss this matter.

A head guard bit the bullet and went up to the ring, then he carefully approached Wu Haohan, who was sitting with his legs crossed. Just as the guard was going to persuade Wu Haohan, a cold voice was heard coming from another ring. “Back off!”

The head guard was taken aback. He immediately bowed and retreated without a sound.

It was Princess Wu Hanning who spoke, and no imperial guard in the capital would disobey Her Royal Highness.

Wu Hanning looked at the confused crowd and noted loudly, “Wu Haohan is in the process of breaking through to the peak of Yang Grade Cla.s.s Five, so if anyone disturbs him now, you'll be his enemy for life. If any of you aren't pleased, by all means, you can go up to the ring.”

The crowd looked at each other and secretly cursed.

'Won't the imperial family be embarra.s.sed if someone disturbs Wu Haohan while he's trying to break through? As long as one isn't crazy, I suppose n.o.body would have the guts to do that?'

'Even if one's a lunatic… Do you really think the imperial guards are incompetent? They'll definitely join hands to beat that person up and drag him to the prison to be tortured.'

Before long, the crowd was struck with another thought.

'Why did Wu Haohan suddenly break through at this moment?'

In particular, the Yang Grade powerhouses looked grim, and their eyes lit up. Those who could advance to Yang Grade were not idiots, so they had an idea of what was going on when they recalled what happened. It was not easy for a martial artist to upgrade to another cla.s.s or rank. Apart from acc.u.mulating enough experience, one needed to break through the martial arts bottleneck.

It was not tough to acc.u.mulate experiences because it was bound to happen as long as one persistently worked hard and did not ruin one's foundation. On the opposite, n.o.body could guarantee a successful advancement through the bottleneck.

A fateful chance would be needed for a breakthrough. If one had a chanced encounter or acc.u.mulated enough experiences to arrive at the upper limit, one could successfully break through.

Without a chanced encounter, one could not even be able to advance half a step, which was the usual case for many people.

Although powerful resources could sometimes lower the condition to break through a bottleneck, resources were always rare.

Unless one was a G.o.d-favored child, for instance, Zuoqiu Hongyuan, Wu Hanning, and He Liangce, who were nurtured regardless of the costs, how could one acquire those resources?

Therefore, most martial artists were left with one option to break through.

They would cultivate to a bottleneck then get into a life-or-death-battle with an equally formidable enemy, hoping that they would gain apprehension and make it through the bottleneck.

Nonetheless, how could anyone easily get into a life-or-death battle with an evenly-matched opponent? It would not be effective if one's opponent was too weak, and it would be a tragedy if one's opponent was too powerful. Besides, n.o.body could guarantee a breakthrough in a life-or-death battle like that.

It was certainly not an easy task because a martial artist's path of cultivation was full of hards.h.i.+ps.

Normally, one would die before being able to break through.

When the crowd looked at Wu Haohan, who was sitting with his legs crossed on the ring, they experienced an upsurge of emotions and could no longer calm down.

They felt like they stumbled upon a wonderful method through Wu Haohan.

Just as everyone brewed ulterior notices, Wu Haohan released a threatening aura without warning. It was so intense and violent that it could not be put into words.

Wu Hanning curled her lips into a faint smile. While Wu Haohan was not a core figure in the imperial family, he was part of the collateral branch, hence the imperial family's combat power would increase if he could enter the peak of Yang Grade Cla.s.s Five.

Moreover, those who were at the peak of Yang Grade Cla.s.s Five had a higher chance of becoming a Supreme Great Ancestor.

It was just a faint hope, but every Supreme Great Ancestor entered Extreme Grade from the peak of Yang Grade Cla.s.s Five, and there had been no exceptions. If one could not even arrive at the peak of Yang Grade Cla.s.s Five, one would not have the hope of becoming a Supreme Great Ancestor at all.

Wu Haohan slowly stood up. His aura was unstable, and he had a complicated look on his face.

When he looked at Ou Yangming again, he did not know what he was thinking and how he was feeling.

That being said, he was very clear that the spiritual pressure from the gigantic beast, which was stimulated by Ou Yangming was so real that he could not get rid of it. It was enough to prove that Ou Yangming's mental power was far beyond what he could imagine.

Although Wu Haohan's martial art cultivation base improved, he knew that the outcome would be the same even if they fought again.

Wu Haohan sighed and cupped his fist at Ou Yangming. “Thank you.” Following that, he flashed and left the ring, then he walked far away.

Two imperial guards instantly escorted him, whereas the other people looked at him in envy.

They knew Wu Haohan had left to cultivate in isolation to stabilize his state, and he would be welcomed by a brand new world once he finished the process.

Ou Yangming grinned and shook his hand a little, causing a white light ring to appear around him.

The light ring did not cover a huge area as it was only a few meters around him.

Ou Yangming closed his eyes in the ring, and he inhaled deeply to enjoy the marvelous moment.

On the other hand, the faces of Wu Hanning, Zuoqiu Hongyuan, Bai s.h.i.+xue, and some formidable cultivators changed. They either mumbled softly or spoke to themselves.

'Vigor Spell…'

'It's the legendary Vigor Spell.'

Bai s.h.i.+xue had a strange look on her face when she glanced at the ceramic bottles in her hands.

She gathered every Vigor Medicine from the store, but before she could get them to Ou Yangming, he had already performed the Vigor Spell.

'What exactly does the young fella not know…'
