Covering the Sky: I, Wang Teng, truly lack the bearing of an emperor.

Chapter 365 Using the King of Slaying the Dao as a Stepping Stone

At this moment, the old man with the gap-toothed tooth's aura changed drastically. Although his cultivation level was still at the peak of the Dragon Transformation Realm, the aura he displayed was much stronger. Coupled with the aura of the legendary holy weapon, it made many powerful people around him frown.

"Young friend, be careful!" Xia Jiuyou's protector warned Wang Teng.

The old man with the gap-toothed tooth in front of me is definitely a powerful Dao-Slaying King. He would be considered a living fossil even in the Eastern Wilderness. He would be treated with great respect even in ancient aristocratic families.

Even he, if he encountered such a powerful person in the outside world, would carefully avoid him and would not easily clash with him.

However, the situation is special now, and Wang Teng will definitely not back down easily for the sake of the Bronze Dragon.

"It's alright," Wang Teng said calmly.

Even if he took the bronze dragon and left, Wang Teng had ways to remove the mark left on it.

However, Wang Teng did not like the feeling of having things tampered with.

So, he took action directly.

As the Heavenly Emperor's Holy Sword swept across, a faint imperial might descended from the darkness.

The Heavenly Emperor's Holy Sword is not an ultimate imperial weapon, but Wang Teng was able to incorporate the forbidden techniques from the legacy of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor into his casual strikes.

It seemed like a casual strike, but it was as if an ancient emperor of the same realm had attacked with a forbidden technique from the Chaotic Ancient Emperor Scripture.

With the added blessing of a legendary sacred weapon, Wang Teng's attack was no less powerful than that of a Supreme Elder of the first level of the Sendai Secret Realm.

"How dare you, brat!" the gap-toothed old man sneered.

He raised his hand and swung his battle axe, like an ancient god creating the heavens, unleashing a full-force strike with pure brute force.

Even though the underground palace was protected by an array, the surrounding void was still strongly impacted at this moment, like a stone thrown into a calm water surface, with ripples spreading out in layers, the void fluctuating, and black cracks like spider webs appearing and disappearing.

People around him looked serious and quickly retreated, afraid of being caught in the shockwave.

With their limited perspective, they could naturally see that if they were to get involved, they would suffer serious consequences.

However, Wang Teng met the attack head-on without changing his expression, which had caused other powerful figures to back down.

The Heavenly Emperor's Holy Sword cleaved down, emitting a dazzling golden light. It collided with the battle axe in the old man's hand, producing a loud clang that made everyone around cover their ears.

Even so, beads of blood were still dripping from their mouths and noses.

This attack was too powerful; even sonic waves would be difficult for them to resist!
"Is this still the destructive power of the Dragon Transformation Realm? Wasn't Wang Teng's strength only at the first level of the Dragon Transformation Realm? How could he unleash such a powerful attack!"

The powerful figures watching the battle around them had solemn expressions, and their moods were heavier than the last.

They were somewhat prepared for the old man's power, after all, he was a legendary senior who had lived for thousands of years and had long been famous in Zhongzhou.

However, they found it hard to accept Wang Teng's strength. After all, Wang Teng was just a member of the younger generation, and his strength was suppressed to the first level of the Dragon Transformation Realm, which was even eight minor realms lower than the gap-toothed old man.

Given that Wang Teng's age, experience, and current skill level were all inferior to the old man with the gap-toothed tooth, it was unacceptable to them that he could actually hold his own against him.

"The Dragon Transformation Realm is so powerful, how are the other geniuses supposed to face Wang Teng?"

"Does the younger generation still have a chance? With Wang Teng making his move, I'm afraid no one will have a chance at all?"

"A nightmare for the younger generation. Not to mention the younger generation, even the older generation would have no chance against Wang Teng!"

The expressions of the group of powerful figures around them changed repeatedly. None of them had expected Wang Teng to be so powerful, able to intimidate them with a casual move, which filled them with shock at this young man from the Northern Plains.

Neither the power to rewind time nor Wang Teng's own formidable combat strength are things that ordinary people can handle.

If you can't beat them to begin with, and they can even go back in time to the previous moment and fight in their peak form at all times, how can you possibly win?
Among his generation, as long as Wang Teng is still alive, no one else can ever be his match!
"The Northern Emperor! The well-deserved Northern Emperor, Wang Teng!"

Someone said.

Although the people around them were reluctant to admit it, they still accepted this statement.

The younger generation looked increasingly solemn.

In particular, the geniuses of the Hundred Schools of Thought and the prince of the Nine Li Dynasty never expected that someone could be so powerful.

While the group was still in shock and disbelief, Wang Teng was already locked in battle with the gap-toothed old man.

Although both of them were at the Dragon Transformation Realm level, just like the other spectators around them, their battle was exceptionally intense. The surrounding crowd couldn't even see the specific details of their attacks, only two blurry figures fighting, with one powerful figure wielding a long sword overpowering the other.

The aura of sainthood and emperorship permeated the air. Wang Teng had no intention of using this Dao-Slaying King to hone himself. He had already honed himself enough. So he directly used the forbidden technique from the Great Emperor's inheritance, intending to suppress the opponent in a short time.

The gap-toothed old man could also sense Wang Teng's strength, so he didn't hold back and went all out.

The battle axe swung with all its might, each strike unleashed with relentless force, as if Wang Teng were a tree and the axe-wielding lumberjack were the one doing the chopping.

Facing the all-out attack of the former Dao-Slaying King, Wang Teng remained unfazed. Every move he made was like a comet striking the moon, hitting the target with a single blow.

In the sea of ​​suffering, the Chaotic Ancient Emperor, a deity, swam aimlessly, commenting on the attack of the Dao-Slaying King outside.

"Is that all? You dare to use an axe?" commented the deity of the Chaotic Ancient Empire.

He himself was an axe, so he knew more about the various techniques of the battle axe than others. Seeing this Dao-Slaying King swinging his weapon haphazardly, he naturally felt extremely disgusted.

"Why don't you just bring me out and unleash the Chaotic Ancient Legacy, so that guy can see what real axe skills are?" The Chaotic Ancient Imperial Weapon Deity couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up.

"He's just a mere Dao-Slaying King. Why would I need to take action? I can handle him on my own!" Wang Teng said calmly.

If it takes the Chaotic Ancient Imperial Weapon to deal with even a Dao-Slaying King, then what is the point of his many years of cultivation?

"Three Slashes of Chaos! Slay people!" Wang Teng shouted softly, sweeping his Heavenly Emperor Holy Sword horizontally.

The void shattered, and a sharp sword light came from afar, slicing through the old man's eyes.

Before he could even react, Wang Teng struck him with his sword, leaving a horrific wound on his body. The gap-toothed old man's expression turned grave as he reached out, trying to heal his injury.

However, when his hand reached out and landed on himself, it did not help him heal his wounds.

A majestic imperial aura permeated his body, constantly destroying the vitality of his flesh and blood, seemingly burning with his flesh and blood as its life force, bursting out the most intense flames.

“Continue!” Wang Teng said calmly.

He struck again, suppressing the toothless old man.

At this point, the gap-toothed old man no longer dared to confront him head-on.

His moves and methods might not necessarily cause much damage to Wang Teng, but if they were used on him, they would definitely deal him a significant blow.

After a fierce battle, the gap-toothed old man was forced to retreat several steps to the edge of the underground palace, looking at Wang Teng with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty.

"Young man, you have indeed exceeded my expectations. If I had this level of cultivation back then, what chance would my contemporaries have? No, what chance would you geniuses have?" the gap-toothed old man said with emotion.

If he had possessed this level of power back then, all his contemporaries would have been suppressed by him. He might even have been able to challenge the legendary path to becoming an emperor. At that time, these young people would all be overshadowed by his aura and live in his shadow.

Unfortunately, he wasn't that strong back then. Now, when facing Wang Teng, he was also beaten back step by step. Even though his true level and his current level after being suppressed were much higher than Wang Teng's, he still felt extremely strained when they actually fought.

Wang Teng remained silent. This old guy had tried to sow discord between him and others time and time again; he was no good person to begin with.

Furthermore, the fact that he left a mark on the bronze dragon clearly indicates that he planned to catch up and steal it later. Wang Teng would naturally not be polite to such a person.

He made another move, each one dazzling those around him, who couldn't keep up with Wang Teng's pace.

In reality, Wang Teng simply incorporated the power of spacetime into his technique. Each of his attacks was extremely brief, appearing to others as a mere instant, but for Wang Teng, that instant was enough for him to unleash the complete forbidden technique of the Emperor Scripture.

Faced with Wang Teng's attacks, the gap-toothed old man was in dire straits.

He wanted to resist, but no matter how hard he fought back, he couldn't defeat the spirited young man in front of him, even with his battle axe in hand.

Although the boy was only holding a longsword, he seemed to know all the techniques of the battle axe. Before I could even use my skills, he had already seen through me.

"How is that possible! Do you think you're all-knowing and all-powerful?" the gap-toothed old man roared.

As a Dao-Slaying King, he was already the strongest person traveling outside at that time, and he must have his own pride. However, at this moment, he was repeatedly defeated by a young man, and even his proud methods could not break through that young man.

The boy looked to be only in his teens, not even twenty, but he seemed to be omniscient and omnipotent, and had some knowledge of all methods.

Whether it's the True Meaning of Eternal Universe or the Void Scripture, that young man knows them all. He can even handle the power of spacetime, which no one before him has ever mastered.

In the end, even the toothless old man began to doubt himself.

After being knocked away by Wang Teng once again, half of the gap-toothed old man's body was shattered, covered with spider webs like a porcelain doll about to break.

"Are all the geniuses in the outside world this abnormal these days?" the gap-toothed old man muttered to himself, incredulous.

Hearing this, Xia Jiuyou wanted to say that it wasn't the geniuses outside who were abnormal, but only Wang Teng himself who was abnormal, but after thinking about it, she swallowed her words.

Because in the Eastern Wilderness there is another Qi Hao who is also considered to be very abnormal. Although he has not fought with Wang Teng, the question of who is stronger between the two has always been a topic of great interest in the Eastern Wilderness.

"Senior, shall we continue fighting?" Wang Teng asked.

There was no blood on the Heavenly Emperor's Holy Sword, and Wang Teng remained as elegant and otherworldly as ever, showing no signs of the disarray that comes with a great battle. It was as if he had not just fought a powerful opponent, but was simply admiring the scenery.

"I'm not fighting anymore! If you keep fighting, I'll be beaten to death!" the gap-toothed old man sighed and said.

"I've lived for three or four thousand years, so I'm practically a living fossil, but I never expected to end up at your hands, kid," the gap-toothed old man said with a bitter smile.

Then, leaning on his axe, he limped over to Wang Teng, reached out and placed his hand on the bronze dragon in Wang Teng's hand, erasing the mark he had left on it.

Wang Teng nodded slightly upon hearing this.

Indeed, living for three or four thousand years would make him an old monster anywhere, especially in his previous life. Three or four thousand years would have spanned almost the entirety of most civilizations on that planet, and he might even have witnessed Yu the Great controlling the floods.

"Alright, I've removed the mark from it. You can leave with this now." The gap-toothed old man sighed and reluctantly withdrew his gaze.

Even though he was a Dao-Slaying King, he was still full of anticipation for this bronze dragon and what it contained.

If he wants to advance further, he will inevitably have to rebuild those realms in the future. Even if this bronze dragon does not have the legendary top-grade dragon companion behind it, the mere imperial dragon aura is enough to benefit him greatly.

But now, not only is the Bronze Dragon gone, he was also beaten up by Wang Teng in front of everyone. His reputation as a Dao-Slaying King and his past achievements have become Wang Teng's stepping stones.

Unsurprisingly, when people mention Wang Teng, they will definitely think of themselves. At that time, all the glorious deeds they did back then will be brought up and used as stepping stones for Wang Teng.

The thought of becoming a stepping stone for a young man would bring up all sorts of past deeds, not to boast about his strength, but to highlight Wang Teng's strength...

The thought of this made the old man with the gap-toothed tooth feel short of breath.

"Hehe, thank you very much, senior." Wang Teng put away the bronze dragon directly.

He looked up at the people in the underground palace.

There were originally many independent cultivators here, but a number of them died in the initial conflict. Those who survived were the strongest among the independent cultivators. Originally, the conflict was bound to escalate further, but after the prince of the Nine Li Dynasty appeared, he directly suppressed the entire scene with the Mountain and River Map, thus preventing the conflict from escalating further and the casualties from increasing. Therefore, there are still many people in the underground palace.

"Farewell, everyone!" Wang Teng chuckled.

With a casual wave of his hand, ripples spread through the void, and a domain gate opened out of thin air. Wang Teng stepped into it and instantly left the underground palace.

"This..." The group of people around were shocked.

Especially that old man with the gap-toothed tooth, he had just secretly tried to open a passage in the underground palace with the strength of a Dao-Slaying King, but he failed. He didn't expect Wang Teng to be able to leave like this.

"We underestimated him. Luckily, there was no conflict..." Xia Jiuyou's protector breathed a sigh of relief.
