Shennong Dao Master

"Get lost, you’re not qualified to step on my island yet."

A voice as loud as heavenly thunder rolled in from the east.

Eight thousand miles east of the floating island, a muscular man with red hair and eight diamond-shaped plates on his chest issued a warning.

The eight mountains that Lord Ya Shi conjured up didn’t crush Zhao Xing, and instead, his aura grew even stronger, which made Ya Shi wary.

However, Lord Ya Shi didn’t recognize Zhao Xing because he had been in seclusion for many years, and Zhao Xing had only risen to fame in these recent millennia.

Gaining entry by purchasing a spot was indeed done through the War God Hall. Even though he knew the War God Hall had another partner, he was only aware of the Five Poison Emperor, Emperor Hongshan, and Zuo Qiyu, having never heard of Zhao Xing.

Zhao Xing finally pinpointed the adversary’s location, learning through his interface that this was a late-stage Lord Qi Sect Martial Artist named ’Ya Shi.’

"I called you senior, yet you got so arrogant! So you’re just a Lord-level?"

Zhao Xing’s Taichu Avatar instantly swapped places with his true form.

Inside the Law Realm, his Taichu Avatar and true form could teleport in an instant.

"Boom!"

Without a word, Zhao Xing activated the Red Lotus Demon Ape Transformation and charged at Lord Ya Shi.

"Huh?"

Lord Ya Shi was in the midst of comprehending the Life Dao Map in the sky. Upon sensing Zhao Xing’s suddenly surging aura, he looked over in surprise.

"Just now it felt like the aura of an early-stage Emperor, how did it increase so much in an instant?"

"Could he be of the Demon Race, is this his true form?!"

Lord Ya Shi didn’t recognize this as the Marquis Transformation Method, after all, Zhao Xing’s practice of it was now profound.

Moreover, could someone with merely the aura of an early-stage Emperor achieve such frightening heights by using the Marquis Transformation Method?

Lord Ya Shi could no longer afford to be nonchalant, sensing that this Demon Ape before him could indeed threaten him.

He abruptly ceased his comprehension, soaring into the sky to face the threat.

"Demon, taste my hammer!"

Lord Ya Shi charged forward, the large hammer in his hand turned into a stream of light, with layers of space overlapping, which took Zhao Xing by surprise.

Among Qi Sect Martial Artists, it’s rare to see anyone wield weapons, yet Lord Ya Shi was not only skilled but very adept at using one.

The Hammer Dao Soldier wielded by him, combined with secret space techniques, unleashed formidable power, yet its trajectory was extraordinarily agile.

Zhao Xing, however, caught Lord Ya Shi’s Meteor Hammer with his bare palms.

The Demon Ape Transformation perfected over the past two centuries could rival the Qi Sect Martial Artists of mid Emperor level, and with the Red Lotus Magical Power’s boost, his strength reached late-stage Emperor level.

A Lord-level like Ya Shi reaching the fourth level must be a genius, yet Zhao Xing couldn’t believe he could be overpowered.

"Boom!"

The large hammer was directly caught by Zhao Xing, with visible ripples forming in the space between his hand and the hammer.

Lord Ya Shi was stunned: "He actually caught it!"

To catch his Lifebound Daoist Soldier barehanded, even though it was just a middle-grade, was still incredible.

Yet the more astonishing part was yet to come.

"Ha!"

Zhao Xing exerted force with his hand, and the Red Lotus Magical Power burst out in a flash, crushing the Meteor Hammer into shards!

"What?!" Lord Ya Shi’s eyes dulled in disbelief.

Crushed? He never could have imagined his Meteor Hammer would be crushed like this, it was monstrously unbelievable!

However, he had no idea that Zhao Xing’s perfected Demon Ape Transformation had also enhanced his innate secret technique. One of the innate skills of the Demon Ape Clan, the [Shattering Realm Palm], was improved by integrating over ten thousand Life Dao Maps from the first three levels, capable of crushing even a Realm Wall.

Coupled with the enhancement from the Destruction Path of Red Lotus Magical Power, this was bound to be the outrageous outcome. Had it been a higher grade, Zhao Xing wouldn’t have been able to crush it.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" Zhao Xing used the innate secret technique of the Demon Ape Clan, flinging the crushed hammer fragments towards Lord Ya Shan.

A meteor shower engulfed him, the fragments ignited by Red Lotus Magical Power, each piece unbelievably fast, matching the full force strike of a mid Emperor.

Lord Ya Shi shuddered as eight arms suddenly extended from his body, each gripping a hammer of identical quality to the previous one.

"Clang clang clang!!"

The eight hammers summoned storms and rains as if the sky would collapse, pounding against the meteor shower.

Utilizing the force perfectly, the eight hammers were overwhelming, seemingly brighter than the meteor shower, remarkably managing to thwart it entirely.

However, with each block, Lord Ya Shi stepped back, retreating all the way into the rocky layers behind him once the meteor shower passed.

His entire body, with arms swollen and golden bones numb, had consumed half of his Qi-Blood!

"Huff huff~"

Lord Ya Shi panted heavily.

Once he came back to his senses, and the smoke cleared, he found Zhao Xing standing coldly in front of him.

Breath caught in his throat, Lord Ya Shi realized he was no match for Zhao Xing.

"Do I qualify now?" Zhao Xing’s pink hair fluttered; his hulking red-skinned muscles ablaze with red flames as he looked at Ya Shi indifferently.

"If you want to kill, then kill, why waste your breath? Think I’ll submit to the Demon Race? Humph!" Lord Ya Shi stood straight, full of disdain.

Zhao Xing reverted to his human form and cursed: "Open your damn eyes, this is the genuine Minister of Agriculture Marquis Transformation, you’re the demon, your whole family is demon!"

"What?" Lord Ya Shi was caught in bewilderment, "You, you’re the Minister of Agriculture?"

"Didn’t I just say so, I am a Coral-level member of the Primordial Realm."

"Clang!" Lord Ya Shi dropped the eight iron hammers to the ground, decisively kneeling on one knee: "I had eyes but failed to recognize, please forgive me, senior."
