CHAPTER 1013: CHAPTER 696: BROKEN POT, BREAKING WORSE!_2

Because of the way their heads grow, they cannot take care of their backs, so their back defenses are incredibly terrifying!

In the same realm, not many dare claim they can destroy the back defenses of the Xiongtou Race!

Even Cai Kun doesn’t dare guarantee it!

If you want to deal with the Xiongtou Race, you can only attack from the front!

As Guan Wanli’s Dharma image emerged, it spread out tens of thousands of zhang, a thunderous roar echoed between heaven and earth, and a gray radiance illuminated the entire void, countless rays intertwined to form layers of gray armor, emitting a solid and heavy aura!

"Such powerful Heavenly Dao defenses! Guan Wanli has become even more formidable than ten years ago!"

"Ten years ago, he was defeated by Xu Jue with just one move difference, surely he must have reflected deeply over these years, and his proficiency has increased markedly!"

"This strength, perhaps even stronger than Xu Jue was ten years ago? If Xu Jue came today to challenge, he might not be able to defeat him."

"Yes!"

The people below the stage were all shocked, watching Guan Wanli’s Heavenly Dao Dharma image. Many knew Guan Wanli was powerful, but they did not expect him to be this strong!

For a moment, they were all overwhelmed by the Heavenly Dao power Guan Wanli controlled, even forgetting about the missing "Broken Throw"!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The powerful energy exploded in the void, dazzling light distorted visibility, and the void seemed to tremble, the violent Spiritual Power waves impacting the battle stage. Even though these waves couldn’t harm the crowd, they were still terrified!

But at this moment, all the gray light suddenly became agitated, and a black-and-white vortex flashed through the middle, spinning rapidly.

The originally destructive Heavenly Dao power became incredibly chaotic.

Swoosh!

A figure descended from the void like a projectile, crashing down the battle stage and hitting the ground.

Everyone focused and saw that it was Guan Wanli!

Could it be that Guan Wanli was defeated?

And defeated so easily?

Many couldn’t process this, they didn’t even understand how Guan Wanli lost, only knowing he had just displayed his unparalleled, earth-shaking Heavenly Dao power, while everyone thought this would be a hard battle—

Guan Wanli was tossed out!

They didn’t even see clearly what Heavenly Dao power "Broken Throw" used!

The entire venue fell silent!

Everyone was stunned!

Including the defeated Guan Wanli himself, who looked completely bewildered.

"How did I lose?"

Guan Wanli’s mind was blank!

He hadn’t sustained any actual injuries, it seemed that person had no intent to kill him, yet all his power was depleted in an instant, now he couldn’t even lift his arms.

And on his arm, the Dao Palace insignia had already vanished!

"Thank you! Daoist Guan! Until we meet again."

A voice came from the void.

This voice was still quite polite, sounded like a well-behaved child.

——

"Is this the Broken Dao Race?"

He Qing sat in the corner of the audience seats, also stunned by this battle!

Just now "Broken Throw," as known as the "Broken Pot" brother, briefly revealed his visage, but she didn’t recognize him.

He Qing’s brows furrowed even more tightly!

She had initially improved significantly after comprehending the Dao Stone, thinking she could challenge the top experts, thus came today to assess the gap.

However, Broken Throw’s action completely overturned her imagination, making her realize there are always bigger fish, and she has a long way to go before entering the top hundred of the Earth Ranking to earn breath soil.

"I thought the Human Race was already powerful enough, yet unexpectedly there appeared a Broken Dao Race!"

She couldn’t help but think of Xiang Beifei.

He is also a very monstrous genius!

One move finished Cai Kun and Tang Yingxin!

Originally she was a bit skeptical of Xiang Beifei’s statement that Broken Hat and Ragged aren’t himself, but now she could be completely sure!

Xiang Beifei indeed has no connection with the Broken Dao Race!

Because when Xiang Beifei made his move, the aura emitted was completely different from that of Broken Throw earlier!

Xiang Beifei’s actions carried an air of laziness and impatience within the strong power.

Whereas Broken Throw’s move was accompanied by politeness with sharpness, decisiveness shining through his sharpness!

Between the two, there is a difference.

Thus it seems, the Broken Dao Race should be a rising new race, acknowledged by Dao Palace, which is why "Broken Hat" and "Ragged" were placed on what originally belonged to Xiang Beifei’s rank.

Yet He Qing now silently anticipates one thing.

"Broken Hat," "Ragged," and "Broken Pot Broken Throw" of the Broken Dao Race are rising dark horses, Xiang Beifei is also a hidden super genius!

If Xiang Beifei were to fight against these four individually, who would be stronger?

This would be an exceedingly exciting battle!

"Although that guy speaks quite annoyingly, he should be able to win, it’s a pity."

He Qing still holds some confidence in Xiang Beifei, but unfortunately, as a member of the Human Race, Xiang Beifei has no way to climb the Heaven and Earth Ranking, hence cannot shine on the Earth Ranking.

He Qing finds this quite regrettable.

——

Divine Feather City.

It’s only about seven or eight thousand li away from Chi Mu City.

Today in Divine Feather City, the crowd isn’t particularly large. To highly-ranked cultivators across Edge Corner Airspace, the distance between the two cities isn’t considered far, and many powerful individuals have gone to Chi Mu City to witness the world-renowned Xu Jue’s Ranking battle. The streets appear rather desolate.

In the Divine Feather Commercial Tower, Dongfang Xuan is resting on the top pavilion of the tower.

Last time, the Divine Feather Commercial Tower auctioned two rare Dao Stones, gaining significant reputation, and in the two months since, many more trading guests have arrived, many willing to have items appraised.

"Xu Jue’s Ranking defense, interesting."

Dongfang Xuan gently poured a cup of tea, looking relaxed.

He didn’t go to Chi Mu City because he believes that today’s ranking defense won’t have many surprises. Generally, the Demon Tentacle Race’s Xu Jue still has strength.

But just then, he suddenly sensed something, slightly frowns and looked to the left.

To the left, a shadow had already stood at some unknown time.

The figure was cloaked in a black robe, not a hint of aura exuding, appearing lifeless, making it hard to discern their depth.

"So strong."

Dongfang Xuan’s brows revealed a hint of solemnity.

Though he is merely at mid-stage immortality, in essence, his strength is formidable, not actually weaker than Cai Kun, only over-aged for the Earth Ranking, thus unlisted.

Now someone infiltrated his pavilion without him noticing, making him extremely wary!

The person able to do this is not simple!

But Dongfang Xuan, as the elder of Divine Feather Commercial Tower, has seen countless people, experienced many grand occurrences.

He calmly stood up and cupped his hands in salute: "Daoist friend gracing Divine Feather Commercial Tower, what might be the matter?"

"Dongfang Xuan, don’t you recognize me?"

The hood atop the person’s head transformed into black mist and dispersed, revealing his true face.

This was a middle-aged man with graying hair, bushy white eyebrows particularly striking, his eyes profoundly deep, carrying a sharp aura.

"Ge Hengzi?"

Dongfang Xuan was quite stunned, sizing up the other’s figure closely, then smiled wryly.

"It’s been years since we last met, never thought your proficiency has progressed so much." Dongfang Xuan sighed.

In their youth, they were friends, but after parting ways, they hadn’t seen each other for thousands of years.

"I’ve cultivated at the Dao Palace for some years, the opportunities gained are beyond your imagination," Ge Hengzi said.

"You cultivated at the Dao Palace?"

"Indeed."

Ge Hengzi suddenly produced a token, showing it to Dongfang Xuan.

Dongfang Xuan looked at the token, his expression changed slightly, and he exclaimed, "Dao envoy order, you—"

"I represent Dao Palace today." Ge Hengzi spoke indifferently.

Dongfang Xuan regained his composure, suppressed the tumult within, and cupped his hands in respect: "Greetings, Honorable Dao Envoy."

Dao envoy order!

The token from the Dao Palace headquarters, those who possess the Dao envoy order represent the will of the Dao Palace and bear supreme authority!

And Ge Hengzi, dispatched by the Dao Palace as a Dao Envoy, holds an extraordinarily esteemed status!
