RPAGF Chapter 98 A draw
Chapter 98 A draw
From the corner, Li Lan finally spoke.
He had no intention of getting involved in the conflict; he had only come here to gather information, but he never expected to encounter these things.
When Kujue mentioned him, he was filled with a mix of emotions. So many years had passed, and he never expected that the people of the Abyss Realm would still remember him.
Shangguan Xiaoxiao was even willing to fight Li Hao to protect the reputation of a dead man...
However, he could tell that the cultivation technique Shangguan Xiaoxiao practiced was from the same source as the "Sun, Moon and Stars Technique" that Mingzun had passed down to him, but it was not as profound and comprehensive as the Sun, Moon and Stars Technique, and it was far from being fully mastered.
If she makes a move now, she will most likely suffer a great loss.
Who is this person?
"How dare you say that Shangguan Xiaoxiao can easily defeat Li Hao?"
"Are you looking for death?"
Many people looked over, and even Shangguan Xiaoxiao was very puzzled.
"You boast shamelessly, you try to attract attention, you pretend to be profound in order to gain empty fame. If you want to die, I will grant your wish."
Li Hao merely glanced at Li Lan indifferently, not taking her seriously at all!
He'd seen plenty of people like that.
""
Li Lan responded calmly, then looked at Shangguan Xiaoxiao and said, "Miss Shangguan, may I come over for a drink?"
Shangguan Xiaoxiao had some doubts, but she still went over. Li Lan picked up his chopsticks, dipped them in the wine, and drew on the table, saying:
"His Heavenly Dragon Phenomenon is not yet fully developed and has many flaws. First, his Qi is insufficient. The place where the Heavenly Dragon attaches must be the place where the Qi is received... Second, his meridians are easily disordered. If his Heavenly Dragon is guided to rotate and move into the Seven Heavens, his Qi will instead harm himself."
Li Lan used chopsticks as a pen to describe everything. He didn't use any secret language to transmit his voice; he just spoke plainly, and all the cultivators inside and outside the restaurant could easily hear him!
Ordinary people may not understand the significance, but many geniuses and even hidden masters were all taken aback at this moment.
"This person...this person's analysis is extremely insightful! Listen carefully!"
"No, what he said... seems to be true!"
"This person's theory actually coincides with Li Hao's extraordinary phenomenon?!"
For a moment, many knowledgeable people listened to Li Lan's words while looking at the strange phenomenon that Li Hao had displayed in the sky.
Originally, his extraordinary phenomenon was extremely dazzling and captivating, leaving many cultivators breathless. But now, as they looked at it one by one as Li Lan had instructed, they instantly felt as if the clouds had parted and the sun had shone through, and their minds had been enlightened.
If Li Hao's extraordinary phenomena made him seem like a colossal elephant that could dominate the world, then Li Lan at this moment was like a skilled butcher dissecting an ox, instantly deconstructing all his mystique.
"There is indeed a flaw. How could this person know so much about Li Hao's unusual phenomena?"
"Exceptional insight, this person's insight is truly extraordinary!"
"Even I feel there's a chance I could cause trouble for Li Hao..."
For a moment, the eyes of many geniuses and experts in the arena lit up!
Meanwhile, in the sky, Li Hao's face was extremely gloomy.
No one understood his vision better than him, so he was very clear that what Li Lan was saying at this moment was true.
His extraordinary abilities have only recently awakened and are still developing; he is far from reaching a state of perfect harmony and invincibility.
But how did Li Lan figure it out? You must know that he is the only one in the entire Li family who has awakened this phenomenon!
"Very good, very good. I never expected that such a master would be hidden in this small restaurant..."
He spoke in a deep voice, staring at Li Lan: "My strange phenomenon is right here. Why don't you try to break it?"
Li Lan hit the nail on the head, but he was not afraid at all. Instead, he was angry. So what if the other party could see his weakness?
As a top genius, he has the confidence to suppress everything!
Li Lan didn't reply, but Shangguan Xiaoxiao said, "Our battle isn't over yet, why are you in such a hurry to challenge others?"
She turned around instantly, and with a swift movement, stepped out of the restaurant and stood in the air. With a wave of her slender hand, countless stars shone brightly!
The stars twinkled, the moon rose, and a halo of sunlight lingered in the distance. At first glance, the scene was mysterious and breathtakingly beautiful, like a fairy dancing under the moonlight.
"She also awakened to the phenomena?"
"impossible!"
"Are all unusual phenomena free now?"
For a moment, everyone in the room was shocked. The scene surrounding Shangguan Xiaoxiao was truly astonishing, almost indistinguishable from a strange phenomenon.
"No, that's not a phenomenon!"
Suddenly, an elder powerful figure spoke up: "That is the law she evolved. Her law is too powerful, it actually has the potential to rival a supernatural phenomenon!"
Upon hearing this, everyone gasped in shock!
The birth of an extraordinary phenomenon is extremely difficult and rare. Its emergence signifies the appearance of an unparalleled genius who is invincible among his peers. But in this world, is there a technique that can rival an extraordinary phenomenon when used?!
"Could it be... the technique of the Great Sage Luo Tian?!"
Suddenly, a low shout came from the shadows!
"Heaven, earth, sun, moon, stars... indeed very similar. The Great Sage Luo Tian received the inheritance of the Bright Venerable, and this technique also originated from the Bright Venerable. However, the Bright Venerable no longer exists, and the Great Sage Luo Tian has also disappeared for thousands of years. How could his technique suddenly reappear in the world?"
"It's the seal of literature and art... Back then, the Great Sage Luo Tian left behind a legacy within the Sun Moon Sect because of his beloved, a seal of literature and art. Has this woman actually broken it?"
"Impossible! Countless people have tried to unlock the Sun Moon Sect's legacy, but none have succeeded... After all, even the most talented individuals would not waste their entire lives on literature."
Many powerful senior experts were secretly watching the battle, so they were able to discern the origin of the technique used by Shangguan Xiaoxiao.
They were all filled with doubt and uncertainty!
Now the source is trembling, gray fog is spreading beyond the border, and the whole world knows that the saints have returned in strange forms, and the laws created by the Bright Venerable have suddenly appeared in the world... This has aroused too many speculations.
"Beware!"
Even behind Li Hao, an old man appeared and spoke solemnly; he was Li Hao's protector.
……
In a corner, Li Lan calmly watched the battle.
During the time of Dali, Shangguan Xiaoxiao obtained five thousand years of literary fortune from him. Her inheritance should have originated from that time!
The Mingzun once said that he passed on the Sun, Moon and Stars Technique to a disciple, who was naturally the Great Sage Luo Tian. However, the technique that the Mingzun passed on to the Great Sage Luo Tian was not complete.
Therefore, the spell that Shangguan Xiaoxiao was using at this moment was somewhat different from the spell that Li Lan had mastered, which clearly showed that Luo Tian Dasheng had deduced it with his own talent.
Although it cannot compare to the complete cultivation method created by the Mingzun, it is still extremely powerful and has many unique features!
……
Boom!
Meanwhile, on the battlefield, Shangguan Xiaoxiao rushed into the sky dominated by Li Hao like a shooting star. She was like a fairy walking on water, passing through the air, wearing a holy coat like moonlight. In the blink of an eye, she rushed to the front of Li Hao's heavenly dragon phenomenon!
"Be careful, she's going to provoke your dragon soul!"
The protector sends a secret, telepathic reminder.
Li Hao snorted coldly. He had naturally heard Li Lan swaggeringly point out many of his flaws.
Therefore, he knew Shangguan Xiaoxiao's current goal—to attack his Heavenly Dragon Phenomenon. Once his Heavenly Dragon Phenomenon erupted, it was very likely to go out of control and damage his Dao foundation.
In his vision, with a thought, he was already in front of Shangguan Xiaoxiao, and casually stomped down on her!
This kick was exactly the same as the one Li Jue used to defeat Jian Yingzhou, originating from the Heavenly Dragon Skill. However, under his control, its power was more than a hundred times greater than Li Jue's. When it erupted, there were thunderous roars and dragon cries amidst the strange phenomena.
Everyone was shocked. The strength Li Hao displayed at this moment was too great. Even experts at the Nascent Soul Realm would not be able to withstand this kick!
But at that very moment, Shangguan Xiaoxiao neither dodged nor avoided, and forcibly condensed a sun halo around her body. The area illuminated by the sun halo was extremely dazzling, and the light directly enveloped Li Hao!
This is a forbidden technique in her cultivation method of "Heaven, Earth, Sun, Moon and Stars" - "Great Sun Descending in the Sky"!
Given her cultivation level, using this technique at this moment was already a stretch, and it would severely injure herself. However, she did not hesitate at all. The forbidden technique was so sudden that even Li Hao did not have time to dodge!
"Oh no! Her target isn't the Celestial Dragon Phenomenon at all, but Li Hao himself!"
"How dare she! Is she trying to risk her life?"
"The sun in the sky can refine anything that is touched by its light, but her cultivation level is clearly insufficient for that. Is she trying to cause mutual destruction by doing this?"
Everyone was extremely surprised.
Under the blazing sun, Li Hao's face was grim as he said, "You think you can refine me?!"
He was truly enraged. Ever since he achieved his extraordinary cultivation, he had been invincible. Since entering the Sinful State, he had won battle after battle, and no one could rival him.
Now, someone actually wants to refine him? This is an utter disgrace!
"I'd like to see who refines whom!"
He didn't panic. Instead, he unleashed all his spiritual power and confronted Shangguan Xiaoxiao head-on.
The forbidden technique of "Soaring Sun in the Sky" is extremely terrifying, but if the power of the person being refined is too strong... Shangguan Xiaoxiao herself will also suffer severe injuries, or even die!
Li Hao's cultivation level was clearly higher than Shangguan Xiaoxiao's, so his spiritual power was more abundant and enduring, surpassing Shangguan Xiaoxiao's. The two were locked in a stalemate for only a moment before Shangguan Xiaoxiao's stunningly beautiful face was already covered in sweat!
But she showed no sign of giving up!
"Are you crazy?"
"This is suicidal!"
"If this continues, she will be refined!"
Everyone was surprised and spoke up.
Jian Yingzhou, Jian Yinyue, Shi Zhong, Shi Hao, and the others all looked extremely anxious. Monk Kujue sighed softly, wanting to lend a hand, but he couldn't get involved now!
In the corner, Li Lan glanced at Shangguan Xiaoxiao and Li Hao a few times, then drank the last sip of wine and got up to leave.
The outcome is decided.
Boom!
He had just turned around when suddenly, Li Hao's entire phenomenon began to tremble, and countless rays of light seemed to be about to reverse their course!
"This is bad! She's trying to force you to overdraw your spiritual power and cause your entire phenomenon to tremble... In that case, even if you kill her, you'll lose a hundred years of cultivation! The phenomenon will collapse!"
Li Hao's protector spoke in shock, only now finally understanding Shangguan Xiaoxiao's scheme.
Her initial attack on Tianlong, and later her refining of Li Hao... were all just a smokescreen. Her true purpose was to sacrifice her own life to cut off a period of Li Hao's life, causing him to lose a part of his time!
"What a cruel heart!"
"This woman is not only terrifying in cultivation, but her mind is also truly frightening. But is it worth it for that so-called Abyss Realm, for that long-deceased Imperial Preceptor?"
"Incomprehensible!"
Everyone wore complex expressions, admiring Shangguan Xiaoxiao's resolute decision, yet also filled with doubt and confusion...
Who exactly was Li Lan, who died in Dali?
How could a genius like the monk Kujue worship him like a god, and a promising young woman like Shangguan Xiaoxiao risk her life for him?
This is absolutely incomprehensible!
Li Hao, under the blazing sun, was now completely panicked!
A century lost?
This is unacceptable!
It should be understood that geniuses compete for supremacy, and time is of the essence. If he is injured as a result and it takes him a hundred years to recover to his current level, he will fall far behind. How will he then compete with the geniuses of his generation?
Shangguan Xiaoxiao only lost her life, but he lost his honor!
"You bitch!!"
He gritted his teeth, unable to maintain even the composure of a peerless genius, appearing furious and wishing he could kill Shangguan Xiaoxiao immediately and grind her bones to dust.
But the more anxious he became, the more strange phenomena were stirred up by him.
"point!"
Suddenly, a golden hand descended from the sky, reaching directly beneath Li Hao's extraordinary celestial dome. The golden hand, carrying a powerful aura of immortality, pressed down, and Shangguan Xiaoxiao's Great Sun Soaring Technique was directly neutralized!
The anxious Shangguan Xiaoxiao and Li Hao were forcibly separated by this immortal hand!
In an instant, Shangguan Xiaoxiao was sent flying thousands of meters away, and Li Hao also retreated repeatedly, his face pale!
Beside Li Hao, a middle-aged man in a black robe gracefully landed. He was an immortal, Li Hao's protector!
"Is this the Li family? The younger generation is competing, and the elders are interfering? Have they forgotten the decrees of the Celestial Court?!"
Beside Shangguan Xiaoxiao appeared a middle-aged beauty whose appearance bore a resemblance to Shen Xingyue, who had gone to the Great Li Realm. At this moment, her eyes were filled with mockery.
In fact, she was prepared to take action; she couldn't let a genius perish like that. It was just that the Li family couldn't hold back first... so the Sun Moon Sect had the upper hand.
"Fellow Daoist Xingqing, how about we call this a draw?"
Li Hao's protector cupped his hands and said, "Miss Shangguan and Hao'er are both geniuses of our time. It's a real pity that they both suffer heavy losses!"
Shen Xingqing sneered and said, "Today, it was your Li family that took the initiative to seek peace!"
She stopped pursuing the matter, after all, in a sense, Wu Shang's draw with Li Hao was a win for Shangguan Xiaoxiao!
"A draw..."
Li Hao's expression darkened. He said, "What is this...?"
He was clearly stronger; he could have easily defeated Shangguan Xiaoxiao…
"Hao'er!"
His protector sternly shouted to stop him!
Li Hao was helpless; he knew that the matter was already settled.
Suddenly, his gaze swept over a figure leaving the scene, and he immediately turned cold, saying:
"stop--"
It wasn't that he was intentionally looking for them, but at this moment, everyone was paying attention to them, and it would be somewhat... conspicuous for him to leave alone.
"Such a highly accomplished person as you, it would be a pity to simply leave!"
The rage in Li Hao's heart found an outlet. He stared at Li Lan's retreating figure, then with a sweeping wave of his hand, he unleashed a devastating attack—

My family elders have passed away, so updates may be delayed. Please forgive me.
