Asura Emperor Venerable

Chapter 84: Chapter 84: Shift of Strength and Weakness

Shi Hao smiled.

Martial Venerables, namely Soul Nurturing realm martial artists, he had already encountered them, so when he suddenly saw Shi Pojun unleashing the power of frost, he was not at all surprised.

However, the power of frost was indeed terrifying, and the temperature around seemed to have suddenly returned to the deep winter.

You must know, it was now the sunny April, and the grass had long since grown and orioles had taken flight.

Shi Hao clenched his fists, his Soul Force expanded, drawing in the Fire Element, and with a boom, fierce flames suddenly ignited on his fists. Then, he too unleashed the Flying Cloud Fist, charging towards Shi Pojun.

Flying Cloud Fist against Flying Cloud Fist, frost against fire.

...

Bang, their fists collided, one white and the other red, one icy and one fiery, starkly contrasting.

Shi Hao immediately was forced to retreat step by step; under the same martial technique, naturally the one with the stronger power emerged victorious, and in Shi Pojun’s case, his power even reached 1.5 million jin. With the enhancement of the Flying Cloud Fist, he possessed nearly a million jin of crushing might.

Luckily, Shi Hao had trained his physique to an incredibly formidable level using the Tyrant Body Technique; otherwise, this single strike would have been enough to shatter his arm bones, depriving him of the ability to fight again. @@novelbin@@

However, he did not suffer in the clash of Elemental Powers; instead, he gained a slight advantage, putting Shi Pojun in quite an embarrassing situation.

“Traitor!” Shi Pojun couldn’t help but shout lowly. If Shi Tianyang hadn’t taught the Flying Cloud Fist to Shi Hao, how could a mere country boy unleash a Sun-Level high-grade martial technique?

At most, it would just be Tiger Wind Fist.

Then, his power advantage would expand to nearly two million jin.

What does that mean?

He could kill Shi Hao with one punch.

Flying Cloud Fist, this is a secret technique of the Shi Family, only those core members could practice it, yet Shi Tianyang passed it to an outsider.

“A mere outsider dares to practice the forbidden knowledge of our Shi Family, I must take your head today!” Shi Pojun said coldly.

Shi Hao sneered and said, “Using the Flying Cloud Fist, it’s because my foster father taught it to me. Do you really think I covet your Shi Family’s possessions?”

Shi Pojun burst with fury, you even look down upon it?

If you have the ability, don’t use it!

“You insolent boy, if you don’t use the Flying Cloud Fist, I can kill you with one punch!” the old man said gravely.

“Come!” Shi Hao changed his fist style, now using the Eight Extremes Fist.

This is what you asked for.

Shi Pojun saw this and couldn’t help but rejoice.

He was still young after all, too easy to deceive.

Otherwise, if it were him, regardless of what you say, of course, he would use the strongest martial technique.

He quickly put up his fists to meet the attack, aiming to kill this exceedingly young Martial Venerable in one blow.

Bang!

Their fists collided again, and Shi Pojun’s face suddenly changed, feeling a huge force resonating from the opponent’s fist, involuntarily making him retreat.

Step by step, he retreated ten steps before stopping, while Shi Hao only took seven steps back.

That is to say, Shi Hao’s power was not only not weaker than his, but it even somewhat surpassed him.

This!

Of course, Shi Pojun didn’t believe that Shi Hao’s cultivation had suddenly skyrocketed; there was only one reason, which was that the martial technique used by Shi Hao even exceeded the Flying Cloud Fist in rank.

My god, if the Flying Cloud Fist was a Sun-Level high-grade martial technique, then surpassing the Flying Cloud Fist would mean… a Sun-Level martial technique!

At this moment, Shi Pojun was both extremely shocked and regretted to death.

How could a country boy possibly learn a Sun-Level martial technique?

If he had known earlier, why would he provoke Shi Hao not to use the Flying Cloud Fist?

“He really dug a hole and buried himself!”

“Damn it, I’ve seen people who mess things up but never someone who messes themselves up like this.”

And this outcome was something the Shi Family couldn’t accept. How did their awe-inspiring ancestor suddenly find himself at a disadvantage?

They had just been thrilled to discover that their family had a Martial Venerable, feeling indescribable pride and arrogance. And now what?

It hadn’t been long before they were dealt a severe blow.

Shi Hao burst out laughing, relentlessly attacking with his Eight Extremes Fist, as the power of fire boiled over, “Old man, are you satisfied now?”

Shi Pojun was in a bind, unable to say he was very dissatisfied and demanded Shi Hao to switch back to Flying Cloud Fist, could he? But to say he was satisfied would be like swelling one’s face to fill out fatness.

This kid… is really scheming.

He clearly possessed Sun-Level Martial Techniques yet didn’t use them, choosing to wait until he was provoked to seem like he had been tricked, but in the end, he was the one who got trapped.

Damn it, how could someone so good-looking have such a dark heart?

However, Shi Pojun wasn’t scared.

His combat power was indeed slightly inferior to Shi Hao’s, but only by a little; this only allowed Shi Hao to hold the advantage, but it wasn’t enough to turn it into a winning position.

Furthermore, Shi Hao’s Primitive Strength was much weaker than his, relying entirely on martial techniques for bursts of power. But as everyone knows, the strength of the human body is limited, and once it’s exhausted, that power will plummet.

By then, Shi Hao would be heading for a dead end.

Of course, he had a hidden concern—his age. He was too old and well past the prime of his physical strength. In terms of endurance, he was certainly not as good as Shi Hao, who was on the rise. Therefore, he might not last longer than Shi Hao.

After all, he was an old fox. Once he realized this, he began to adopt a more defensive posture, strengthening his defense instead. This way, he would use less energy than Shi Hao.

Heh heh, experience always comes out on top. When he defeats Shi Hao, he’ll remind him of that saying.

Would Shi Hao not see through this?

Of course, he saw it coming. He had acquired Yuan Chengmie’s memories, not to mention the numerous battles he had experienced, which far surpassed his current martial realm.

Old man, do you think you can outlast me like this?

Suddenly, Shi Hao activated the Nine Revolutions Sky-Plundering Scripture, draining the surrounding Power of Heaven and Earth completely. This immediately caused Shi Pojun’s punch, which had lost the support of the Frost Element, to falter, while Shi Hao’s Fire Fist remained utterly unaffected and powerfully struck down.

What!

Shi Pojun’s face instantly flashed a variety of expressions, facing a drastic turn he absolutely hadn’t anticipated and leaving him no time to react.

Boom!

The two fists collided, causing a temporary stalemate, but the raging power of fire fiercely set Shi Pojun’s entire arm ablaze.

“Ah!” Shi Pojun screamed, staggered back, his face filled with shock and pain.

He tried to lift his right hand but found he couldn’t do it at all. His whole right arm was thoroughly roasted—how could he possibly exert any force now?

How could this be?

He couldn’t comprehend why his connection with the Frost Element had suddenly been interrupted.

Did Shi Hao tamper with it?

If so, this kid’s abilities were too terrifying, utterly unheard of!

But if not, then why was the timing so perfect?

Being a powerful figure, he didn’t believe in coincidences.

Having gained the upper hand, Shi Hao didn’t relax but continued to launch fierce attacks. His Soul Force hadn’t fully recovered, and he could only use the Nine Revolutions Sky-Plundering Scripture a limited number of times. Therefore, he had to resolve the fight quickly.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

His Fire Fist was overwhelming and mighty.
