Chapter 727: Chapter 140 Emperor Hall Competition (Requesting Monthly Votes)_2
Unless the other party had hidden tactics that had not been fully revealed before, he could not be too certain in his speech now.
While Emperor Canghai was deep in thought, a faint smile appeared on the face of the young man in red robes next to him, and suddenly, intense red flames burst forth from his body, seemingly about to set the Emperor Hall ablaze.
“Your Majesty granted me the Incense Fire of twelve cities, along with Princess Yun Ji—I am qualified, and I deserve it!”
He turned around and faced the young man in purple, his eyes blazing like golden flames: “And what are you supposed to be, to bargain with me?”
The young man in purple’s expression changed instantly; the words were incredibly harsh, and his face darkened completely as a hint of shock appeared in his eyes.
Twelve cities’ Incense Fire?
...
He had thought that everyone was offered the same, the Incense Fire of five cities!
“Your Majesty, he has been granted the Incense Fire of twelve cities?”
Next to him, the stunningly beautiful woman clad in cloud-patterned garments, showed a look of surprise, her eyebrows knitting as she questioned Emperor Canghai.

Emperor Canghai knew such matters could not be concealed, as the offering of Incense Fire was tangible and could easily be investigated. He nodded slightly and said:
“Yes, Chi Guang, having opened the Five Extremes Realm and mastered the Fire Element Divine Ability, was granted the Incense Fire of twelve cities.”
“Five Extremes Realm?”
Hearing Emperor Canghai’s words, both the young man in purple and the woman in cloud-patterned garments had a slight firmness in their gaze. Those capable of mastering the Five Extremes Realm were at least at the Saint Child Level of the Holy Land.

“Is this enough to merit the Incense Fire of twelve cities? Then I definitely asked for too little!”
Dissatisfaction and a hint of anger appeared in the eyes of the young man in purple.
He himself had only received five cities, less than half of the other.
“You, that sort of caliber, should be grateful for five cities. If you ask me, even those are better off given to me.”
Chi Guang’s gaze was cold and disdainful, not taking the other seriously at all.
The young man in purple suddenly burst forth with a sky-reaching aura, his hair turning golden and releasing the Divine Power Extreme Realm. Simultaneously, with a murderous look in his eyes, he declared:
“Let’s give it a try then! If I defeat you, your twelve cities’ Incense Fire will be mine, and forget about marrying Princess Yun Ji—marry a wild dog instead!”
Li Hao was also somewhat surprised; he had thought it was ten cities of Incense Fire for everyone, not expecting there to be a disparity.
But thinking about it seemed reasonable; it was unlikely that everyone was at the same standard.
However, by that logic, him only gaining ten cities’ Incense Fire seemed like a loss, his bargaining skills lacking.
At this moment, seeing the two about to clash, Li Hao looked towards Emperor Canghai and saw that the latter did not intervene. Clearly, if intervention occurred, the trouble would shift towards him, and it was more fitting for Martial Artists to decide among themselves.
Li Hao said nothing more, just quietly moved aside.
The woman in cloud-patterned garments noticed Li Hao’s movement, her eyebrows slightly raising as she glanced at him, then also silently moved to the side.
Five cities, or twelve, she too wanted to see if the two men, who were considered higher and lower than herself, were truly worthy.
“Seeking death!”
Seeing the other insulting him, Chi Guang’s eyes suddenly burst with Divine Flame, and in a flash, he disappeared using Returning Ruin Instantaneous Movement.
The young man in purple also teleported instantly, his mastery of the Returning Ruins Extreme Realm matching the other. With a loud bang, the space vibrated suddenly, spreading a sea of fire intending to ignite the Emperor Hall.
But Emperor Canghai slightly lifted his hand, and Array formations solidified around him, isolating the fierce flames, not even allowing the temperature to seep through.
“Violet Extreme Celestial Might!”
The young man in purple roared suddenly, his body emitting vast amounts of purple energy, and behind him faintly emerged the figure of an ancient emperor.
The figure was blurry, but even just the outline faintly conveyed a bearing of holding up heaven and earth, bringing a shocking coercive force.
Soon after, he suddenly took action, along with the blurry figure behind him, reflecting off his palm, aiming to suppress Chi Guang with one strike.
Chi Guang glanced up, mockery in his eyes, and suddenly his body’s Divine Flame turned into golden fire, seeming able to incinerate everything. The purple-clad young man’s vestment robe and even his hair caught fire.
Gold patterns emerged on Chi Guang’s forehead, and he softly said: “Flame Extreme Divine Ability, Supreme Heart Flame!”
As his words fell, the surrounding laws condensed, and surges of overwhelming firelight shot into the sky. At the same time, the young man in purple also burst into flames, his entire body emitting a scream.
This scene made both Li Hao and the cloud-patterned woman’s gazes turn grave, a hint of shock appearing in the woman’s eyes. She had not taken Emperor Canghai’s praise of the other’s divine skills seriously before, but hadn’t expected them to be this powerful!
This was a top-tier Divine Skill, cultivated to an extremely high level, a Divine Skill that was hard to guard against just on its own.
Li Hao watched the young man in purple engulfed by golden flames. This fire stemmed from the opponent’s heart, evoking Heart Fire, making it extremely hard to guard against.
Divine Skills were killing techniques mastered by those in the Dao Law Realm. This particular Divine Skill had already touched a hint of the essence of “Entering Dao,” and compared to Haoyue Saint Son, it was not inferior.
As the fierce flames burned over his body, the young man in purple hastily used Returning Ruin Instantaneous Movement, but the fire came along, unextinguishable.
He emitted a pain-filled roar, his body enveloped in purple light, the towering figure behind him grabbing hold of him, and with a burst of purple light, it took a long while to extinguish the fire.
During this process, Chi Guang did not attack again, merely watching coldly.
And when the flames finally went out, the young man in purple was charred and shiny, his War Body cracked everywhere, a sight of absolute misery.
His expression turned incredibly ugly, recalling that there was still a woman nearby, he hastily took out a set of Vestment Robe from the Heaven and Earth Space and put it on. His body was filled with scorch marks and burns, but compared to the physical pain, the humiliation in his heart made him even more miserable and angry.
