Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor
Chapter 1188 - 1173: Human Potential
"Lady, how much further are we from that little bastard?"
In the Ice Snow Mountain range, amidst a swirling void of snow and wind, Gu Yan, the Saintess of Gue Mountain, swiftly traveled alongside the beautiful Snow Lady.
At this moment, Gu Yan's bare feet were stepping on a golden lotus, which was clearly no ordinary treasure. It allowed Gu Yan, with her mere prowess in the Three-star Demigod Realm, to instantly teleport at a speed comparable to the full speed of the Snow Lady.
This Snow Lady, the master of the Ice Snow Wilderness, was a formidable powerhouse at the Five-star Demigod Realm.
However, despite her status as a Five-star Demigod, upon hearing Gu Yan's question, the Snow Lady respectfully replied, "Reporting to the Holy Maiden, at our current speed, we should catch up to that renegade in half a day."
"Half a day?" Gu Yan muttered softly, then laughed coldly, "Good!"
The thought that in half a day they would catch up to that little bastard and torture him to death made Gu Yan feel a thrill in her heart!
Then, the Snow Lady spoke again to Gu Yan, "Holy Maiden, there's something I must report. The renegade you're looking to capture is currently with a young man. If I'm not mistaken, that young man is the Saint Son of Flame Sacred Land, Huo Yu!"
"Huo Yu!" Upon hearing the name from the Snow Lady, Gu Yan wasn't too surprised. She had heard about Huo Yu in Luoshan Great Wilderness, associated with that little bastard.
That Gongsun Taiyin was slain by the alliance of that little bastard and Huo Yu.
As for this Huo Yu of the Flame Sacred Land, at this moment, Gu Yan didn't pay him any mind!
Gu Yan knew that although Huo Yu stepped into the Three-star Demigod Realm years ago, half a year earlier during the Grand Competition among younger generations held by major forces of the Wilderness Continent, Gu Yan saw the Saint Son of Flame Sacred Land Huo Yu, who was still in the Three-star Demigod Realm!
Breaking through to the Four-star Demigod level is no easy feat!
Even if in these six months, Huo Yu successfully entered the Four-star Demigod Realm, Gu Yan still had means to deal with him.
The last time at the Demon God Fallen Land, she, who had never suffered a setback, suffered a big loss and a great humiliation. Upon returning to Gu'e Mountain, Gu Yan brought all her methods with her.
This time, unless she tortures that "little bastard" who offended her at the Demon God Fallen Land to death, she will not rest!
Then, Gu Yan spoke again, asking the Snow Lady, "Besides that little bastard and Huo Yu, what about the little slut by that little bastard's side? Are there any others?"
Gu Yan didn't mind Huo Yu, but she was worried about any senior from the Flame Sacred Land being with Huo Yu. If there was a senior present, even if she used all her means, she would not be a match!
The Snow Lady replied, "Reporting to the Holy Maiden, currently it's only the renegade and Flame Sacred Land. The woman who was with them has already left, and her current whereabouts are unknown!"
"What! The little slut with that little bastard is missing!" At the Snow Lady's words, Gu Yan exclaimed and then her expression turned cold.
She intended to torment the young man and have the woman humiliated by men in front of him, making him suffer both physically and mentally.
Now hearing that the woman is missing makes Gu Yan very unhappy!
Then, Gu Yan spoke coldly again, "Don't you have the Ice Desolate Mirror? Everything in this Ice Snow Wilderness is under your control! How is it that the woman is missing?"
"I don't know why either!" The Snow Lady replied, "The Ice Desolate Mirror usually doesn't fail, but I've used it several times in search and couldn't find the woman. In such cases, it's highly possible that she has entered a mysterious place or has a mysterious treasure on her!"
While responding, the mature and beautiful face of the Snow Lady was extremely serious and earnest, not appearing to be lying.
"Oh, is that so?" Gu Yan still had a cold face, covered with a layer of frost.
"How dare I deceive the Holy Maiden!" The Snow Lady hastily added upon hearing Gu Yan's cold tone.
"Since you're the master of this Ice Snow Wilderness, do you know who this little slut is?" Gu Yan asked again, still in a cold tone.
"I don't know. I have never seen this woman before. It is also possible that, like the renegade and the Flame Saint Son, she isn't from my Ice Snow Wilderness."
"She's not from your Ice Snow Wilderness?" Hearing this, Gu Yan's eyebrows furrowed deeply. She turned to gaze at the Snow Lady beside her, leaving her thoughts unknown.
But the chill on her face did not dissipate!
...
"How long would it take to successfully comprehend that Four-star Half God Battle Technique you used earlier?"
Shi Feng and Huo Yu continued their rapid instantaneous travel, and at this moment, Shi Feng asked Huo Yu.
A great enemy might be near, so what Shi Feng needed was battle power! The stronger he and those around him were, the better.
If Huo Yu successfully comprehended that Four-star Half God Battle Technique, his battle power would far surpass the present level.
Just as in the previous battle, Jueluo and Duo Hee suspected Huo Yu had already perfected the Four-star Half God Battle Technique, so they were cautious and serious about him.
If Huo Yu's move "Heavenly Fire Chaos Dance" was truly mastered, even if Jueluo and Duo Hee teamed up, he had the confidence to cruelly slaughter those Old Dogs, letting them have no chance to mock him!
"Ten days!" Huo Yu answered Shi Feng's question.
Upon hearing Huo Yu's reply, Shi Feng turned to look at him, "How come I heard you say earlier that just three days would be enough to master that Heavenly Fire Chaos Dance?"
Previously, angered by Duo Hee and Jueluo's mockery, Huo Yu did indeed say that.
Just give him three days and he would master the Heavenly Fire Chaos Dance and slay those two Old Dogs.
"That... that was because I was angered by those two Old Dogs and spoke out of rage!" Huo Yu explained.
"If those two Old Dogs truly gave you three days, within that time, you'd either successfully master the technique to counter-kill those Old Dogs or meet your death after three days. How do you think the outcome would be?" Shi Feng pressed further.
Recalling the past, Huo Yu's expression gradually turned serious in response to Shi Feng's question, "If it really came to that, I would definitely work tirelessly, exerting myself to the fullest, possibly even triggering my potential!
There were several times when I was in desperation, genuinely unleashing my potential, achieving things I thought impossible. Human potential sometimes truly knows no bounds."
Last time, Shi Feng gave Huo Yu five days to reach the Four-star Demigod Realm, else he would be slain!
In that desperate situation, what normally took over ten days, Huo Yu achieved in just four, entering the Four-star Demigod level!
Potential!
