Invincible Beyond Heavens: Cultivating With A Broken EXP System - Chapter 372: Li Hao vs Huang Chen!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

In the next instant, two dazzling streams of light tore across the sky and descended directly into the center of the five Supreme Dragon Thrones.

Beneath them lay a massive arena engraved with countless dark golden runes that radiated an ancient and weathered aura, as though the platform itself had existed since the beginning of time and witnessed the rise and fall of countless supreme experts.

The two streams of light slowly faded away, revealing the figures standing within them.

They were none other than Huang Chen and Li Hao.

“Li Hao, it is said that the saber dominates all weapons with unmatched tyranny and destructive power. Today, I, Huang Chen, want to personally experience whether your Saber Intent is truly invincible, or if my Emperor Lord Bloodline stands above it!”

Huang Chen’s deep voice resounded across the arena as his tall figure trembled slightly. An incomparably domineering aura suddenly erupted from within his body like a violent storm breaking free from its restraints.

The pressure released by that aura was so terrifying that even experts standing at the Peak of the Essence Qi Realm felt their hearts tighten in fear.

“As you wish.”

Li Hao remained as indifferent and taciturn as ever. His expression did not change in the slightest as he slowly raised his hand and drew out an ancient iron saber.

The saber itself appeared plain and unremarkable, looking no different from an ordinary rusted weapon. However, the moment it appeared, an incomparably sharp aura burst forth from the blade, causing the surrounding air to distort violently as though it could no longer withstand the terrifying Saber Intent hidden within it.

Hiss!

The crowd immediately sucked in cold breaths.

“What terrifying Saber Intent! It has likely already reached 70% source mastery! He truly deserves the title of the number one saber-user among the younger generation of the Southern Martial Domain!”

“I disagree with that statement!”

At that moment, another voice rose from the crowd.

“Li Yun is also one of the five great prodigies, and his mastery over the sword is equally terrifying. From what I have seen, his Dao of the Sword is not inferior to Li Hao’s Dao of Saber at all. If Li Hao wishes to claim the title of the strongest saber-user of the younger generation, then he must first defeat Li Yun!”

“Heh, but Li Yun has yet to reveal his Sword Intent throughout the entire Hidden Dragon Tournament,” someone sneered coldly. “No one even knows what level his saber comprehension has reached. Whether he is truly qualified to compete with Li Hao remains uncertain!”

Boom! Boom!

Before the crowd could continue arguing, violent waves of Qi suddenly exploded across the arena.

Everyone hurriedly raised their heads and saw Huang Chen stomp heavily onto the ground. Instantly, a majestic phantom of an ancient emperor appeared behind him.

The emperor phantom radiated overwhelming authority as though it ruled over heaven and earth itself, and with a world-dominating momentum, Huang Chen charged directly toward Li Hao.

“Emperor Lord Fist!”

Huang Chen roared as the emperor phantom behind him raised its massive fist and smashed downward like a falling meteor. The instant the punch descended, the surrounding air throughout the arena shattered violently, turning the entire region into a terrifying vacuum zone.

“Although this move is powerful, it is still far from enough to challenge me. Huang Chen, show me your true strength. Otherwise, you are not qualified to stand against me.”

Li Hao calmly spoke while looking indifferently at the incoming emperor fist. Then, he slowly raised the ancient iron saber in his hand and casually slashed through the air.

Whoosh!

A crescent-shaped saber light instantly shot forward.

The saber arc carried unmatched sharpness capable of severing all things beneath the heavens. The moment it collided with the emperor fist, there was no violent explosion. Instead, it resembled a hot knife slicing through butter as the emperor fist was effortlessly split into two halves.

However, that was only the beginning.

After tearing apart the emperor fist, the saber arc continued flying toward Huang Chen without losing any momentum. Everywhere it passed, the surrounding air was ripped apart by a massive spatial crack, as though the attack itself had severed space.

The spectators were completely stunned.

Li Hao truly deserved to be called the strongest saber-user among the younger generation of the Southern Martial Domain. His attacks possessed unparalleled sharpness and destructive power. In terms of pure offensive might, even Su Fengyan might struggle to compete with him.

One must understand that tearing apart space was not an easy feat upon the Supreme Platform.

Outside this platform, even a fifth-level Essence Qi Realm expert could distort or tear space with a full-powered attack. However, the Supreme Platform contained mysterious Laws that reinforced the surrounding space to an unbelievable degree. Even Peak Essence Qi Realm experts could only shake the air at best.

Actually splitting space apart was virtually impossible.

Yet Li Hao had accomplished such a feat with a casual slash of his saber.

This alone revealed how terrifying his offensive power truly was.

“That attack power has probably already reached the level of a half-step Mortal Core expert, or perhaps even a true Mortal Core Realm cultivator!”

The crowd cried out in shock.

Outside the arena, Long Yutian and the other Mortal Core Realm experts also stared at the scene with expressions filled with astonishment.

Although the five great prodigies had not yet surpassed them in overall strength, everyone could clearly see that such a day was no longer far away. The younger generation was rising too quickly.

The five experts exchanged helpless smiles, feeling both ashamed and excited at the same time.

After all, the stronger the younger generation became, the more prosperous the Southern Martial Domain would become in the future.

“Emperor Lord Breaking Kill Fist!”

At that moment, Huang Chen let out another furious roar as the emperor phantom behind him threw out another devastating punch. With a deafening explosion, the incoming saber arc was shattered apart.

However, Huang Chen and the emperor phantom behind him were both forced backward by seven or eight steps. A visible saber wound had even appeared across the emperor phantom’s palm, from which pale golden blood-like liquid slowly dripped downward.

Hoo…

Huang Chen glanced at the wound before golden light flickered within his eyes. Streams of pale golden Qi surged across the injury, and within moments, the wound completely healed.

Then Huang Chen slowly raised his head and looked directly at Li Hao.

“What a terrifying Dao of the Saber. Your attacks can actually injure the Emperor Phantom. Even Peak Essence Qi Realm experts would struggle to damage it with full force. It seems I can no longer hold back if I want to defeat you!”

“Emperor Lord Bloodline! Full activation!”

The moment those words fell, Huang Chen suddenly raised his head toward the heavens and released a long, domineering roar.

His hands moved rapidly through the air, forming profound seals at astonishing speed while countless afterimages appeared around his fingers.

Under the guidance of those seals, the noble golden Qi within Huang Chen’s body completely erupted into chaos. The pores across his body opened like volcanic vents as endless torrents of golden Qi burst outward and surged into the sky.

The emperor phantom behind him suddenly opened its mouth and swallowed every stream of golden Qi whole.
