Chapter 1918: A Preliminary Display of Power

"Kid, do you really want to fight me?"

Li Kunn was surprised to hear Xu Nian actually took the initiative to request a battle.

"That’s right, didn’t you say that defeating you grants qualification to sit here? Then let’s do it." Xu Nian sat cross-legged directly on the ground.

It seemed he intended to fight Li Kunn while sitting.

This action raised doubts among many experts around.

Is this guy really that arrogant?

Even Ye Shumin was taken aback by Xu Nian’s actions.

Though knowing Xu Nian’s strength might not be inferior to Li Kunn’s, seeing Xu Nian sitting still was unexpected.

"Kid, you’re planning to fight me sitting?" Li Kunn asked, surprised.

"That’s right, there’s no need to stand against you. The sooner the fight ends, the better." Xu Nian said calmly.

These words caused an uproar in the audience.

Has this guy gone mad?

An Undying Emperor Perfection facing a Peak of Divine level expert, wanting to fight sitting?

If not seen firsthand, they would never believe it’s true.

"Fine, kid, since this is your choice." Li Kunn shouted and immediately employed his Great Tao True Intent.

Sixth Level Earth Attribute Great Tao True Intent; his punch was incredibly powerful.

The Sixth Level Great Tao True Intent directly pressed towards Xu Nian.

Everyone around changed expression; if this punch lands, even an Undying might be seriously injured.

Ye Shumin frowned too.

Yet, as everyone believed Xu Nian couldn’t withstand this punch, Xu Nian gently smiled.

He remained seated without any movement.

"Buzz!"

An invisible wave of Great Tao True Intent erupted from him.

Blocking Li Kunn’s punch with Xu Nian’s Great Tao True Intent.

"What?"

Li Kunn was shocked, his punch made no progress.

And the surrounding crowd showed looks of surprise.

"Ninth Level Great Tao True Intent?" The crowd discerned the level of Xu Nian’s Tao Intent, gasping in disbelief.

The Divine-level experts were dumbfounded too.

Not only Li Kunn, even Ye Shumin was astounded.

"Well? Am I qualified now?" Xu Nian laughed, looking at Li Kunn.

"Yes, yes!" Li Kunn nodded quickly.

Dare not show any disrespect.

Ninth Level Great Tao Intent, not to mention Divine, even among God Level it’s rare.

Such a level of master has unmatched future potential, and in terms of power, defeat is certain.

Though bewildered that the youth’s cultivation is just Nether Emperor level, achieving Ninth Level Great Tao Intent is terrifying.

Everyone around was shocked, even God-level experts now regarded Xu Nian seriously.

Not only eligible to sit in the center, but even closer upfront if desired.

"If that’s the case, why aren’t you gone yet?" Xu Nian said.

"Yes, please forgive, I will leave immediately!" Li Kunn hurriedly replied and quickly departed.

Ye Shumin was dumbfounded, her gaze at Xu Nian became profound and inscrutable.

"You reached Ninth Level Great Tao Intent?" Ye Shumin asked surprised.

"Yes, fortunately broke through." Xu Nian smiled.

"But weren’t you only Sixth Level before?" Ye Shumin found it hard to believe.

"I was hiding strength then, actually at Eighth Level Heaven cultivation." Xu Nian smiled.

Ye Shumin realized.

Xu Nian had been withholding his abilities.

Xu Nian saw Ye Shumin believed him, he gave a slight smile.

Actually, he hadn’t withheld; he truly was Sixth Level Heaven.

But the Chaos Divine Palace’s abilities couldn’t be exposed easily.

Normally, he wouldn’t choose to confront Li Kunn.

Today, he did it intentionally, his goal was simple—to meet the Netherworld Lord.

So he must display his uniqueness as much as possible, not knowing whether the Netherworld Lord witnessed.

Even for a shred of hope, he’d act.

"Xu Fenn brother, actually I hid something from you." Ye Shumin pondered so said.

"Is it about the Nine Heavens Golden Xuan Bamboo?" Xu Nian smiled.

He seemed to know what Ye Shumin wanted to say.

"You knew?" Ye Shumin visibly surprised.

"I know, I obtained one too, so no need to feel guilty, Sister Ye." Xu Nian smiled.

Ye Shumin relaxed and smiled.

"Unexpectedly, Xu Fenn brother also obtained Nine Heavens Golden Xuan Bamboo, I’m relieved." Ye Shumin said.

In the past, whether to inform Xu Nian didn’t matter.

But now, given Xu Nian’s extraordinary talent, if discovered later, he’d harbor resentment.

Even revealing the Nine Heavens Golden Xuan Bamboo, she had to build favor with Xu Nian.

Unexpectedly, Xu Nian already knew and obtained it.

She felt fortunate sharing.

"You’re called Xu Fenn?"

Suddenly, a voice sounded.

Ye Shumin turned to see the newcomer, her face changed.

Xu Fenn turned to regard the newcomer, showing surprise.

Since the person’s arrival unnoticed meant superior strength.

The newcomer was a grey-haired elder, yet his face was baby-like.

"The junior is indeed Xu Fenn!" Xu Nian said respectfully.

"Very well, follow me, sit beside me." The elder said.

Then walked towards the plaza’s forefront.

"He is one of the Netherworld God Temple’s Law Enforcement Elders at Daluo God level." Ye Shumin transmitted to Xu Nian.

"Daluo God?" Xu Nian obviously.

Unexpectedly, they were a master at Daluo God level.

After his move, he caught a big fish.

Yet the fish wasn’t as expected.

Nonetheless, Xu Nian obediently proceeded to sit cross-legged beside the Daluo God.

"Would you like to take me as your mentor?" The Daluo God level expert suddenly asked Xu Nian.

Xu Nian hesitated.

Unexpectedly, they want to recruit him as a disciple?

This made things complicated.

He didn’t come here for a mentor, nor to stay long.

But refusing a Daluo God level expert might upset them.

"No need to rush answering me; after this lecture ends, you can respond. I can tell you my cultivation reached Daluo God Middle Stage level, and my insight reached First Level Luo God Heavenly Dao." The Daluo God level expert said.

Xu Nian heard, deeply shocked.

Daluo God Middle Stage?

First Level Luo God Heavenly Dao?

Experts at such levels could easily crush him.
