Chapter 113: A Stroke Above

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Soon, the prodigies of the three sects and three races.

Empyrean Sword Sect, Shen Ran.

Heavenly Demon Sect, Gu Shuyu.

Beast Taming Mountain, Lei Qianren.

Young master of the Zhou family, Zhou Ziran.

Young master of the Xu family, Xu Liangfeng.

Young master of the Zhao family, Zhao Shiqiu.

These six geniuses of the Southern Region were temporarily gathered in front of this forbidden mystic realm.

Gu Shuyu did not expect Shen Ran to last so long. A teasing expression gradually appeared on his face. Then, an even more violent black storm formed three ferocious tornadoes that rushed towards Shen Ran.

Shen Ran’s figure was like a huge bell, unmoving.

“Bang!”

Three swift and fierce auras collided. Shen Ran’s body shook, and layers of mystic light spread out, each layer carrying an extremely strong deterrent force.

The two rising auras collided again, and the air was torn apart. For a moment, astral winds rose in all directions, and all the elements, earth, water, fire, and wind in the mystic realm were torn apart.

The nearby void was already extremely distorted. The air quickly compressed and exploded, and the surrounding energy of the impact caused a chain reaction

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

The three layers of mystic light responded to the three whirlwinds and directly dissipated them.

The tremors permeated the whole place and the energy waves surged in all directions.

Layer after layer of energy waves immediately enveloped the various Itinerant cultivators with spiritual power barriers, but many of them were still accidentally injured.

“Pfft!”

“What’s going on?”

A group of Itinerant cultivators a hundred miles away suffered slight internal injuries and spat out a few mouthfuls of blood.

Gu Shuyu’s expression also changed. He stared at Shen Ran sinisterly and emitted a pressure ten times more terrifying than before.

Shen Ran, let’s see how long you can last??a weird smile appeared on Gu Shuyu’s face, revealing a row of white teeth.

The black runes on his face deepened as well, almost seeping into his blood.

The black aura quickly transformed into countless skeleton soldiers that rushed towards Shen Ran and let out terrifying screams.

“Ahhhhhhhh!!”

Like hundreds of thousands of ghost soldiers wailing together, they pounced at Shen Ran.

Shen Ran’s body still did not move. He shook again and exerted strength in his feet to stabilize his lower body. The spiritual energy around him quickly condensed and activated the Supreme Bones in his body. The mystic light that fluctuated turned into a huge invisible dragon that forged ahead.

Vast and surging energy rushed down. With a dragon roar, it rushed towards the group of skeleton soldiers.

“Roar!!”

The power of the huge dragon condensed from mystic light instantly shattered these skeleton soldiers, and a ferocious energy attacked Gu Shuyu.

Gu Shuyu’s expression changed slightly. A bone hairpin fell to the ground, causing him to take half a step back from the dragon’s attack.

Gu Shuyu’s face instantly turned bloody, and a hint of killing intent appeared in his eyes.

He did not expect Shen Ran to have some ability to make him suffer a small loss.

His eyes flickered with endless anger as he stared at Shen Ran.

From the beginning to the end, there was only one expression on Shen Ran’s face. He was calm.

At first, everyone thought that this calmness was just a show. The ignorant were fearless and stupid. However, after that scene just now, everyone could not help but be wary of Shen Ran’s true strength.

This scene made the expressions of the few geniuses present change drastically.

Zhou Ziran couldn’t help but widen his eyes. Then he narrowed his eyes and looked at Shen Ran. He couldn’t help but mutter, “No wonder Shen Ran is so calm. So he has some strength.”

Xu Liangqiu and Zhao Shiqiu exchanged glances, equally shocked by Shen Ran.

A mere fifth level Illumination Realm cultivator could actually make Gu Shuyu take half a step back.

They were secretly shocked and realized that they had underestimated Shen Ran.

After all, even they could not make Gu Shuyu as angry as he was earlier on.

At the same time, Gu Shuyu, who was forced to take half a step back, quickly restrained the anger on his face and instead gave an arrogant sneer.

Then he still looked at Shen Ran arrogantly and said indifferently, “You’re young and impetuous. Very good.”

“However, don’t be too rash. If you jump too high, you will fall one day,” Gu Shuyu said calmly. He still did not treat Shen Ran as a real opponent.

However, the scene just now still shocked the Itinerant Immortals watching from the periphery. They exclaimed repeatedly.

“Shen Ran actually forced Gu Shuyu to back half a step?”

“How is that possible!!!”

“How did Shen Ran do it?”

“Gu Shuyu isn’t angry?”

“According to Gu Shuyu’s temperament, Shen Ran would have died countless times.”

“Shen Ran is indeed too arrogant…”

“A tall tree attracts the wind. Shen Ran is courting death by provoking Gu Shuyu like this…”

“…”

Many Itinerant cultivators couldn’t help but discuss what had just happened.

However, they were more inclined to worship and admire Shen Ran more.

“Shen Ran actually defeated Gu Shuyu? As expected of a disciple of the Empyrean Sword Sect. Such talent is simply heaven-defying. He definitely has the aura of a True Emperor!”

“Shen Ran is only at the fifth level of the Illumination Realm, but he actually defeated Gu Shuyu. This is something that no genius in the Southern Region can compare to.”

“No wonder Shen Ran is so calm. This is because he knew that he had the strength.”

“Shen Ran is definitely not stupid. He only dares to face the enemy head-on because he has the strength.”

“…”

After a few discussions, these Itinerant cultivators admired Shen Ran even more.

Compared to Shen Ran, these geniuses instantly lost their luster.

Gu Shuyu and the other geniuses could naturally hear these people’s discussion. Their expressions changed and they were extremely angry.

Unexpectedly, not only did they not embarrass Shen Ran this time, they even let him shine.

The few geniuses were inferior to Shen Ran and naturally regarded him as a great enemy.

If he rose, no sect or clan in the Southern Region could compare to him.

Chen Beixuan, who was secretly observing from the side, was in disbelief.

How is that possible!!!

Shen Ran actually defeated Gu Shuyu?

In his memories of his previous life, Gu Shuyu finally relied on his talent to become a True Emperor of the demonic path. He was insufferably arrogant and mighty.

But now…

He actually didn’t kill Shen Ran immediately and was still dealing with him!

Just now, he was even suppressed by Shen Ran’s aura and took half a step back!

“Gu Shuyu, you’re simply trash!” Chen Beixuan was anxious. His eyes were red as he cursed inwardly, “You don’t even f*cking attack!! Trash! Hurry up and attack!”

Chen Beixuan was more anxious than anyone present.

In fact, the reason why Gu Shuyu did not kill him was because of the few geniuses present.

If he attacked brutally, it was very likely that the rest would benefit.

When the snipe and clam fought, the fisherman benefited.

He knew this truth.

Therefore, he specially restrained his killing intent towards Shen Ran and turned to intimidate him.

Unexpectedly, he had underestimated Shen Ran and allowed him to gain some limelight.

At this moment, spiritual herbs were about to be born in this forbidden area. In order to compete for the spiritual herbs in this forbidden area, he had to restrain himself.

Gu Shuyu’s expression was indifferent. He had a rough estimate of Shen Ran’s strength.

To kill Shen Ran, he still needed to use all his magic power.

Thinking of this, Gu Shuyu’s eyes darkened.

It had been many years since he had encountered an opponent who required him to use his full strength.
