Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 236 - The Weakest Other Shore
Chapter 236: Chapter 236: The Weakest Other Shore?
Chapter 236: Chapter 236: The Weakest Other Shore?
“What are you doing two zhang away?”
Lu Yun couldn’t help but chuckle. This was not how one pretended to be skilled!
However, as a practitioner of the Other Shore Realm, his body naturally sensed danger and reflexively raised his hand to block.
Bang!
He was immediately forced back three zhang, feeling numbness in his palm.
If it weren’t for the timely activation of his power over his palm, it might have been shattered.
He showed a look of shock.
This damn thing is Dark Force!
My God, someone in the Soul Nurturing realm is actually using Dark Force!
No no no, this is impossible, it violates the iron laws of martial arts, it can’t be true.
So, this guy must actually be of the Other Shore Realm, just disguised as Soul Nurturing realm with some kind of artifact or cultivation technique to hide his real identity.
It must be so, the Dark Force absolutely doesn’t “lie”.
Around them, the crowd of onlookers was growing, and they began to nod in agreement that Shi Hao was definitely of the Other Shore Realm, only pretending to be in Soul Nurturing, otherwise, how could he wield Dark Force?
“You really are cunning!” Lu Yun snorted. This explained why the opponent had effortlessly dissolved his attack with Nine Lotuses.
The Other Shore, huh!
But, judging from the strength the opponent had displayed, he was very weak, far inferior even to one island’s level.
This must be a deliberate show of weakness to lure him into carelessness and then strike with a thunderous blow.
Too cunning.
Shi Hao smiled faintly and took the initiative to strike.
Boom, now that he had revealed his ability to use Dark Force, he didn’t mind using it again. After all, for a practitioner of the Other Shore Realm, being able to use Dark Force was nothing out of the ordinary, right?
Moreover, confirming his identity as someone of the Other Shore Realm meant even less suspicion would fall upon him.
Shi Hao didn’t want the matter of the Fire Paulownia to become a buzz and then get linked to him.
Sizzle, the Thunder flashed.
“Hmm?” Lu Yun was taken aback. Once Shi Hao was “confirmed” to be of the Other Shore Realm, he didn’t really pay him much mind, but upon witnessing the might of the Thunder, he was naturally startled.
A Thunder Spirit Root.
He had always prided himself on his Spirit Root, the lethal and punishing Thunder Attribute, so even those with Dual Spirit Roots did not concern him, confident he would undoubtedly triumph in a head-to-head clash of Elemental Power.
Yet, Shi Hao also possessed a Thunder Spirit Root!
This put him in an awkward position, while his killing intent soared.
There were pitifully few in the world who possessed a Thunder Spirit Root, and being chosen by the Second Elder as a Direct Disciple relied not only on talent but importantly on the Thunder Spirit Root.
In the Zhenwu Sect, having one person with a Thunder Spirit Root was already enough!
“Go——”
Bang!
He struck back with a palm, but to his astonishment, Shi Hao had launched another bout of Dark Force from a different direction.
What?
You see, aside from those lucky few endowed by heaven, able to project Soul Force outward, others had to rely on Dark Force to deliver Elemental Attacks.
Yet, Shi Hao was casting Elemental Attacks and Dark Force separately.
My God, what does this mean?
This guy can project Soul Power.
Thunder Spirit Root and the ability to project Soul Power—how could he not be jealous of these combined traits?
He, too, could not project Soul Power.
Lu Yun was somewhat flustered, for Shi Hao was initiating Elemental Attacks while unleashing Dark Force, a feat that took but a moment of thought for Shi Hao, requiring neither waving of arms nor kicking of legs.
Therefore, bolts of Thunder sliced through from every angle, naturally troubling him.
Mainly, he had never encountered such an opponent before.
Fortunately, though the opponent was uniquely gifted with both the Thunder Spirit Root and the ability to project Soul Power, the opponent’s strength and Soul Force were weak, far inferior to that of the Other Shore Realm.
He harbored even more jealousy, such talent all granted to such a waste!
“Hmph, such a colossal waste!” he snorted, his body wrapped in thunder, as he charged to attack Shi Hao.
They both wielded the Power of Thunder, so it was a matter of who could summon the stronger thunder.
Crackling sounds filled the air as the Thunder Shi Hao had unleashed struck his opponent, only to be shattered by the surrounding Thunder Power, unable to inflict the slightest injury.
Lu Yun rushed forth, a cruel smile on his lips, though of course, no one could see it.
Shi Hao also smiled, swiftly retreating, and with a thought, boom, a huge fireball smashed towards Lu Yun.
Damn!
Lu Yun was so shocked he almost lost his breath—Fire Attribute?
Heaven, this guy actually had Dual Attributes of Thunder and Fire!
He never envied those with Dual-Attribute Spirit Roots, but Thunder and Fire, both were major offensive attributes.
Dear heavens, is this waste your illegitimate child?
Are you favoring him this much?
Thunder Power could also fend off the Power of Fire, but for those of non-similar attributes, it wasn’t about who was stronger but about the consumption of Thunder Power.
Shi Hao kept retreating, while Lu Yun kept pressing forward relentlessly.
Almost there.
Shi Hao “saw” that the 729 characters in his Soul Sea had recovered and could be used again.
Good!
Suddenly, Shi Hao halted his retreat and charged towards Lu Yun.
“Seeking death!” Lu Yun sneered, though Shi Hao was also of the Other Shore Realm, and even loved by the Heavenly Bell, possessing Dual Attributes Spirit Root and the ability to channel Soul Power externally, his strength was truly weak.
Do you dare confront me head-on?
Isn’t that seeking death?
He naturally didn’t mind, and with all his strength erupting from his palm, he released a thunderous attack towards Shi Hao.
Nine Rotations Plundering the Heavens!
Shi Hao extended his Soul Power, turning it into a web of tendrils, frantically extracting, and in an instant, the Thunder Power coiled around Lu Yun vanished.
In the middle of Lu Yun’s boundless shock, Shi Hao struck, and with a punch, Thunder, Fire, and Frost—three types of Elemental Power—manifested simultaneously.
Boom!
Lu Yun’s palm struck Shi Hao first, but two lotuses bloomed on Shi Hao’s body, dissolving Lu Yun’s full-powered blow, and then, Shi Hao’s fist also landed on Lu Yun.
A formidable power exploded, and the three types of Elemental Power activated concurrently.
Lu Yun was immediately blasted away, crashing hard into the mountain wall behind him, but a Light Shield appeared around him, enveloping him and preventing Shi Hao’s trio of Elemental Powers from penetrating.
Body-Protecting Spirit Instrument!
Shi Hao’s brow furrowed, was this from the Lu Family, or was it bestowed upon this individual by the Second Elder?
But that wasn’t important; with such a Spirit Instrument for protection, killing Lu Yun just became more difficult.
His Soul Force hadn’t fully recovered, and even if it did, he could at most carry out nine forceful Elemental Power plunders, preventing Lu Yun from drawing on the Power of Thunder.
With fewer than nine opportunities, could he break the opponent’s Spirit Instrument?
Difficult!
Realizing this, Shi Hao didn’t hesitate, he turned and fled.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh, his figure flew, disappearing in an instant.

Lu Yun supported himself up from the rock; his strength far surpassed Shi Hao’s, so Shi Hao’s punch had only caused a minor injury, and with the Light Shield’s protection, the trio of Elemental Powers had also not hurt him.
What made him burn with anger was that he had almost been defeated!
All thanks to the might of a Spirit Instrument.
To think such a proud individual as himself had to rely on a Spirit Instrument to avoid defeat?
He was not content, his opponent’s strength was clearly weaker than his own, but because of some bizarre secret techniques, he had almost suffered a great loss.
“I will definitely find you!” Lu Yun gnashed his teeth, possessing a Triple-Attribute Spirit Root, able to externalize Soul Power, of the Other Shore Realm—the one fitting these three criteria would be truly rare.
