Chapter 775 - 771: Kan Long Crown Prince

Chapter 775: Chapter 771: Kan Long Crown Prince

Xiu Xiu possessed Innate Runes that seemed to embody profound cosmic principles. To the Zhu Jian, such a creature was priceless.

But Xiu Xiu’s speed was astonishingly fast. After striking, it vanished without any visible movement.

Lin Hao was just as fast. Using the Heaven-Stepping Step, his body merged into the void, moving at a speed that even the Zhu Jian’s Divine Sense couldn’t follow.

The Zhu Jian’s eyes swiveled. With a flip of its claws, it seized the entire stretch of space.

With one claw above and one claw below, it held the entire world in its grasp.

Lin Hao’s body appeared within the captured world, and so did Xiu Xiu.

Lin Hao’s body came to a halt. Xiu Xiu, however, flickered and continued to pierce through the void, but it was useless. It couldn’t escape.

"No matter what tricks you have, don’t even think about escaping my grasp!"

The Zhu Jian spoke as its two claws, crackling with arcs of electricity, began to close in.

Lin Hao sat cross-legged, and the Six Paths of Reincarnation reappeared behind him.

The Zhu Jian’s closing claws paused, meeting resistance.

And in just an instant, that resistance became even more terrifying.

Because Lin Hao had merged the Six Dao, a feat he accomplished instantly.

Within the world manifested by the Zhu Jian, endless rumbling echoed and boundless energy surged. That was Lin Hao resisting its powerful domain.

But he couldn’t contend with it.

Even though the Zhu Jian was wounded, it was still not an opponent Lin Hao could handle.

Blood trickled from Lin Hao’s nose.

Xiu Xiu remained carefree, already perched on Lin Hao’s shoulder.

The moment the blood appeared, it wiped it away with its paw and then clutched its paw, licking it maniacally.

The bleeding was endless. In addition to his nose, blood now began to trickle from the corner of Lin Hao’s mouth.

The bloodlust in the Zhu Jian’s eyes grew even more terrifying. It stared at Lin Hao and Xiu Xiu, its excitement palpable.

Lin Hao was already a prize in its grasp, and it would also get a creature containing the profound truths of the law. It was impossible for it not to be thrilled.

At this moment, dozens of miles away, among a complex of palaces, two people stood on a mountain peak, taking in the entire scene.

One of them had white hair and a white beard, his robes fluttering like an Immortal King’s. The other was very young, dressed in apricot-yellow dragon-patterned robes, adorned with four five-clawed golden dragons.

The latter’s identity was obvious from his attire; he was the Crown Prince of the Kan Long Dynasty.

The old man who resembled an Immortal King spoke at this moment, "Kan’er, what do you think of him?"

"Great-Imperial Grandfather, he is very strong, beyond my expectations," the Kan Long Crown Prince answered respectfully, but then his tone shifted.

"However, it’s meaningless. He won’t survive in the Zhu Jian’s grasp. Hmph! That Demon Venerable is truly audacious, daring to have its Devil Soldiers lurk outside my Da Kan Royal Court! Since it dared to show itself, it can forget about escaping."

"I’ll leave them to you. Remember, never underestimate anyone, no matter who they are. Cough, cough..." The old man spoke, then immediately coughed up blood.

The Kan Long Crown Prince’s expression changed slightly. Just as he was about to speak, the old man pressed a hand down, signaling that it was nothing.

Then, without any visible movement, the old man vanished into thin air.

The Kan Long Crown Prince stared into the void for a moment, then turned to look outside the Royal Court and whispered, ’A Harmony Dominator Body is not something a Devil Beast like you can enjoy, Zhu Jian.’

Just then, his expression changed drastically.

In the void outside the Royal Court, the battle between the Zhu Jian and Lin Hao had taken an unexpected turn.

In the distance, within the world manifested by the Zhu Jian, a blazing sun hung in the sky and a full moon fell to the earth. Lin Hao, positioned between the sun and moon, had actually manifested his own world within the Zhu Jian’s.

The Zhu Jian’s closing claws met with even greater resistance, and its expression changed as well.

"Chaos Qi and Hongmeng Purple Qi intertwining to manifest a sun and moon... what a powerful Overlord Body!" Seeing this, the distant Kan Long Crown Prince couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement.

’He realized he had still underestimated Lin Hao.’

’Lin Hao’s potential was immeasurable.’

In the distance, the phenomenon changed again.

The sun and moon merged into one, forming a Tai Chi symbol. Lin Hao stood at its center, using his own body to anchor his world.

Immediately after, the Tai Chi Array Map began to rotate, unleashing a powerful force.

This power made the Zhu Jian’s expression change, because it was actually showing signs of losing control.

It roared, shaking the void.

Immediately, its massive body began to crack apart, but its two claws closed in at an astonishing speed.

The Zhu Jian launched an even more powerful attack at the cost of its own body.

PFFT!

A sickening crack echoed from Lin Hao’s body as he simultaneously spat blood, but the Tai Chi Array Map became even more terrifying, slamming outward violently.

A world-shaking collision occurred, and the void shattered.

Both Lin Hao and the Zhu Jian were sent flying backward, both slamming into the ground.

Dust and sand flew into the air, and the very earth trembled.

The Zhu Jian, in particular, with its immense body, gouged a massive trench into the ground where it landed.

Lin Hao also crashed to the earth, the trench he created running deep.

Then, both of them leaped out of their trenches at the same time.

Though the Zhu Jian was dripping with blood, it landed with terrifying force. It stared in Lin Hao’s direction, a red light flickering in its eyes.

Lin Hao, on the other hand, couldn’t even stand. Every bone in his body felt like it was about to fall apart.

The Zhu Jian was an ancient, ferocious beast that had cultivated for thousands upon thousands of years in the Dragon Transformation Ancient Realm. Even wounded, it was still terrifying.

Even with his Harmony Dominator Body, Lin Hao couldn’t gain the slightest advantage against the wounded beast.

The red light in the Zhu Jian’s eyes grew deeper as its aura locked onto Lin Hao. At the same time, it began walking toward Lin Hao, one step at a time.

With every step, its aura grew stronger.

At the same time, a greatbow materialized in the air above the Zhu Jian.

Lin Hao’s pupils contracted. He sighed softly as a gleam of light appeared on his finger.

Just as he was about to use the Phantom Ring, Lin Hao abruptly looked up.

And the Zhu Jian’s greatbow, which had been aimed to annihilate Lin Hao, suddenly changed its target.

From the direction of the Kan Long Royal Court, a massive hand reached out from the void, its speed pushed to the absolute limit.

The arrow disappeared into the void. The massive hand pressed down, seeking to suppress the Zhu Jian’s body.

The Zhu Jian went berserk, and runes began to flash across its body.

But it couldn’t change its fate of being suppressed.

Its body began to shrink.

Finally, the Zhu Jian’s body transformed into a humanoid form and was pinched in the great hand’s grip, then confined and dragged into the Royal Court.

"You yellow-haired whelp! A few hours ago you were hiding in your hole like a coward, and now you strike when I’m injured! How detestable!" The Zhu Jian’s voice echoed from the void.

Lin Hao raised an eyebrow, remaining motionless.

At the same time, from the direction of the Kan Long Royal Court, two streaks of light shot rapidly toward Lin Hao’s location.

Across a distance of dozens of miles, the two streaks of light arrived in the blink of an eye.

Two Martial Artists appeared before Lin Hao.

They were completely covered in armor, with only their two pairs of cold eyes exposed.

Lin Hao saw through their cultivation levels with a single glance.

’Sealed Martial Realm Third Layer!’

’This was somewhat astonishing.’

’These two were clearly just Royal Court Guards.’

"Young Master Lin, we have been ordered to invite you to be a guest at the Royal Court!"

Without waiting for Lin Hao’s reply, the two Royal Court Guards attacked simultaneously, one grabbing for his left arm and the other for his right.

Lin Hao didn’t move.

BOOM!

The two Royal Court Guards who had reached for Lin Hao suddenly knelt before him with a tremendous thud.

"My good Guards, you’re being too polite. It’s just a visit, there’s no need for such a grand ceremony. I’ll go, I’ll go." As Lin Hao spoke, he reached out as if to help them up.

At that moment, looks of horror appeared in the two Royal Court Guards’ eyes, because they discovered they were utterly unable to control their own bodies.

The next moment, the two of them bent at the waist, and their heads slammed violently into the ground, as if they were kowtowing to Lin Hao.
