“Cut off my future?” Xiao Yun smirked as he replied, “I’m afraid that you, Fang Hao, don’t have the right to do so. The one whose future will be cut off is you. I’ll show you that the men of our Xiao family aren’t to be bullied.”

“Cut the nonsense. Let me see how strong you are,” Fang Hao coldly said with a smile as he swept out his hands. A ball of Essence Qi gathered, turning into a seal in front of him as a massive wave of pressure emanated out from it.

This was the Heavy Mountain Seal. Once Fang Hao condensed it, a powerful aura swept out from it, but Xiao Yun continued to stand his ground. The airflow in front of him became berserk, as if there really was a mountain crashing down on him.

This sort of seal was more berserk and domineering than the Eight Extremes Palms, and gave off a chilling feeling that it would suppress everything. This was especially so because Fang Hao had stepped into the middle stage of the Innate realm, and his cultivation was stronger than Zhou Lin’s.

However, even in the face of such a seal, Xiao Yun only calmly smiled.

“Dragon Snake Dual Travel!” Xiao Yun’s eyes flashed; he did not seem nervous at all. His hands also moved as Essence Qi swept out, and made an attack towards Fang Hao.

The Essence Qi congealed into the form of a dragon and a snake, and although they had not become corporeal, they still looked extremely lifelike. They gave off a ferocious air, as if they could obliterate a mountain. If a normal cultivator was hit by them, it was likely that they would be snapped in half like a plank of wood by the dragon and snake’s tails.

“Suppress!” Fang Hao’s eyes gleamed as a gigantic magic seal took shape. Following the motions of his hands, it started to descend towards the youth in front of him. As the magic seal descended, the air above the stage started to go into a frenzy.

This sort of ferocious and dominating attack shocked everyone present. The youths in the distance stared, dumbfounded – this was no less than expected from someone in the middle stage of the Innate realm!

Boom!

Just as the magic seal was about to descend on its target, the dragon and snake from Xiao Yun’s hands swung their tails towards the magic seal. The two attacks clashed together, creating a berserk ripple of Essence Qi. Under the collision from the shockwaves, the magic seal trembled and was blocked.

Bang!

Following a loud explosion, the magic seal suddenly collapsed. However, the dragon and the snake from Xiao Yun’s hands were also destroyed, and held no advantage in the clash.

A powerful wave of Essence Qi swept out like a tsunami, and both youths trembled as they were blasted back by the massive shockwave. Only after taking six steps back did they manage to restabilise their bodies.

Fang Hao’s steps became incredibly heavy, and he regained his balance with great difficulty. Following this, he tightly frowned as he glared at the youth opposite him. By now, Xiao Yun had also stabilised himself. From this exchange of blows, it was evident that none of them had come out on top.

“You’ve also stepped into the middle stage of the Innate realm?” Fang Hao asked as he stared at the youth opposite him in shock.

From their clash just then, it seemed that the density and ferocity of Xiao Yun’s Essence Qi was no weaker than his own!

“You think that only you can step into the middle stage of the Innate realm?” Xiao Yun replied calmly with a cold expression.

“What?! Xiao Yun has also stepped into the middle stage of the Innate realm?” everyone beneath the stage exclaimed.

“No wonder he could dominate the geniuses of the various families. He’s stepped into the middle stage of the Innate realm!”

“Is this Xiao Yun even human? Three months ago, he was only at the Sixth Layer of Body Tempering. How could he have rocketed to the middle stage of the Innate realm?”

“Mother of god! He’s not just a genius anymore; he’s simply a demon!” The cultivators from the various families were unable to remain calm anymore – such a cultivating speed could only be described as terrifying. If Xiao Yun was allowed to continue to grow like this, how could Fang Hao compare to him?

Even if Fang Hao had an Ice Martial Spirit, with such powerful cultivation, Xiao Yun could still suppress him! In this world, cultivation was the foundation of strength; Martial Spirits were merely supports.

“We can’t allow this brat to continue to live.” A serious expression appeared on the Fang family’s elder’s faces as they felt a sense of danger.

“He actually stepped into the middle stage of the Innate realm?” A cold flash of chilling intent appeared within the Fang family’s old patriarch’s narrowed eyes. This sort of genius was enough to threaten their Fang family.

Under the cheers of the entire arena, Fang Hao also felt a sense of danger.

“Luckily, you’re only at the middle stage of the Innate realm. There’s still time. As long as I cripple you today, so what if you have astounding potential?” Fang Hao deeply breathed in and out as a cold light shone in his eyes.

“Haha, you shouldn’t have come out in public after regaining your talent. If I were you, I would have hidden away in a forest or mountain until I was powerful enough. Unfortunately, you don’t have that choice anymore. I, Fang Hao, am the only genius who can reside in the Violet Cloud County.” Fang Hao’s words were incredibly cold, and he had a savage look on his face.

From his expression, he most likely wanted to kill the threat in the cradle while Xiao Yun still wasn’t very powerful yet.

“Hide away in a forest or mountain? What a joke,” Xiao Yun retorted coldly as he stared down the youth opposite him. “You think you can cripple me? Don’t think too highly of yourself. Today, I’ll defeat you, and not only that, I’ll enter the Heaven Origin Sect.”

“Join the Heaven Origin Sect?” Fang Hao calmly laughed, “You’re too naïve.”

“Have a taste of the might of my Ice Martial Spirit.” Fang Hao’s eyes flashed as a wave of Chilling Qi emanated out from his body. Instantly, it felt as if winter had descended on the entire stage, and the air almost began to freeze.

Under the assault from the Chilling Qi, the nearby cultivators also felt a bone-chilling coldness.

“Is this the aura of the Ice Martial Spirit?”

“Those with a Martial Spirit are indeed extraordinary. It’s tantamount to them having an extra divine skill!”

The spectators below the stage cried out in shock while also looking at Fang Hao with admiration in their eyes. That was how extraordinary Martial Spirits were – they gave a divine skill that normal people didn’t have. Just this alone was what allowed those with awakened Martial Spirits to look down on others and defeat those with higher cultivation.

“Can Xiao Yun defend against young master Fang Hao’s Martial Spirit?” Feeling the icy aura, a look of excitement appeared on the faces of some of the youths. They all wanted to see how Xiao Yun would defend against Fang Hao. The aura of an Ice Martial spirit was enough to make even a cultivator at the late stage of the Innate realm fearful!

“Hmph, we’ll see how your big brother Xiao Yun can contend with young master Fang Hao!” Lin Xiao Man, who had just been staring wide-eyed in shock, gave a pleased smile after feeling the Chilling Qi emanating out from Fang Hao’s body and looked towards the young girl next to her.

“You tasteless fellow.” Yan Shi Yan rolled her eyes at Lin Xiao Man and stared towards the stage with a hint of nervousness in her eyes. This was the beginning of the true battle – how would it turn out?

“You definitely have to cripple him this time!” Fang Wei and the other youths coldly cried out as they stared with savage expressions.

On the stage, the Chilling Qi swept out, and Fang Hao’s figure began to look eerie and strange. There was Chilling Qi encircling the area between his eyes, and ice crystals had started to gather there.

“Ice Martial Spirit?” Feeling the cold aura, a calm smile appeared on Xiao Yun’s face.

This sort of Chilling Qi was indeed quite terrifying – it could cause even an Innate realm cultivator’s feet and legs to feel numb, as if the Essence Qi within their body was being sealed. When circulating their Essence Qi, the flow would also be much slower.

As such, when normal people were facing Fang Hao, not only did their movements become more sluggish, but the Essence Qi inside their bodies was also unable to condense in time to fight with him. With such a disadvantage, how could they possibly fight against Fang Hao? Even those at the late stage of the Innate realm would find it difficult to fight against Fang Hao, and if they let down their guard, they could even be defeated in a single strike.

However, this sort of Chilling Qi was not enough to deal with Xiao Yun. The Chilling Qi he had extracted from Xiao Ling’Er last time was far more monstrous than the Chilling Qi Fang Hao was currently releasing!

“I actually needed some Chilling Qi to nourish my Martial Spirit. Hmph, I’ll take as much as you can give.” Xiao Yun’s eyes suddenly narrowed as he started to activate the Heaven-Devouring Divine Art. A vortex appeared within his dantian and started to absorb the Chilling Qi.

Following this, Xiao Yun’s Martial Spirit moved, and a jade-green branch stretched out into his dantian as it began to absorb the Chilling Qi.

All of this had happened in an instant, and Xiao Yun had revealed no outward signs, so no one realised what had just happened. When everyone else looked over, they saw that the Chilling Qi was continuously entering Xiao Yun’s body, and thought that he would be frozen.

Chilling Dark Hand Seal!

Fang Hao’s eyes gleamed as his Martial Spirit continued to emanate Chilling Qi that seemed to cover the sky. The roiling Chilling Qi curled in a circle like a gigantic, ferocious snake. It wrapped around Fang Hao’s body, and was condensed into a gigantic magic seal. This magic seal was wonderous, and had many runes and inscriptions on it, which gave it a mystical look.

Just as the magic seal took form, it gave off a terrifying sense of pressure, as if a wave of extreme coldness and darkness had descended. This magic seal was evidently even more powerful than the Heavy Mountain Seal.

“Chilling Dark Hand Seal?” Xiao Yun slightly frowned, feeling how powerful that magic seal was.

“What sort of magic seal is this? How could it create such a realistic, gigantic hand that contains both a chilling and dark aura? From how much fear it strikes into one’s heart, it should be a Black grade advanced Martial Skill, or even an Earth Martial Skill. How could the Fang family have such a Martial Skill?”

On the platform, some of the elders were incredibly shocked.

Even some of the True Essence realm cultivators were incredibly surprised.

“Who would have thought that Fang Hao had such a Martial Skill.” Xiao Hong deeply frowned, revealing an expression of worry.

“This is my Heaven Origin Sect’s Martial Skill.” Nearby, Qiu Yu Chen, who had been silent this entire time, spoke as he gave a slight smile.

“Heaven Origin Sect’s Martial Skill?” Everyone stared in surprise before exclaiming, “No wonder why! Apart from a few very powerful families, only a sect like the Heaven Origin Sect would have a Black grade, advanced level Martial Skill. At the very most, the ordinary families would have a Black grade, intermediate level Martial Skill.”

“Die!” Fang Hao coldly laughed and pushed out with his hands as the magic seal filled with Chilling Qi slammed towards Xiao Yun. From the distance, it looked like the hand of a god that had come from beyond the heavens to suppress the world.

“Black grade, advanced level Martial Skill?” Xiao Yun narrowed his eyes, staring at the gigantic hand as a fiery look appeared within them. “Very well. Let me test out how powerful your Martial Skill is.” After saying this, Xiao Yun’s hands swept out as he moved to meet the attack.

“This Xiao Yun is planning to directly receive the attack?” Everyone revealed a flabbergasted expression.

The Chilling Dark Hand Seal was enwrapped with Chilling Qi, and froze the air it passed by. How could it be directly received like this?

Wasn’t Xiao Yun seeking death in doing this?

It wasn’t difficult to imagine that upon getting hit by the Chilling Dark Hand Seal, the youth would definitely be frozen by the extreme Chilling Qi.
