384: Chapter 384 The Final Test: Lin Ran VS Yue Hanzheng!

Therefore, the immortal seed of core shedding, which can accelerate the cultivation of the Purple Mansion, is likely a supreme treasure that countless people in the world dream of!

The final Opportunity of this ultimate assessment turned out to be such a supreme treasure; from this, one can see that the Empress of the Chenxin Divine Dynasty has indeed invested heavily!

"Since your previous assessments to join the Zifu Holy Land were so simple and crude..."

"Then, this final assessment is actually also very simple and crude."

"What Her Majesty the Empress values is a young Prodigy with an invincible Dao Heart!"

"Among the hundred of you, whoever has confidence in their own strength, come up to the stage first."

"As long as you can defeat everyone who challenges you, you can obtain the immortal seed of core shedding!"

"Of course, this is a gauntlet match, not a group brawl; challengers must naturally come one by one."

The Green-robed Elder explained with a smile.

As soon as these words were spoken, many people indeed clicked their tongues in secret amazement.

This was truly simple and crude enough!

One person challenging the other ninety-nine young prodigies, and in an allowed gauntlet match at that.

This was entirely a test of one's own strength!

In this kind of enduring gauntlet match, once one's strength fails even slightly, defeat is only a matter of time.

To take the top spot in this final assessment, one must have the absolute strength to crush the other ninety-nine people!

"Now then, who will be the first to take the stage?"

As the Green-robed Elder spoke, his gaze immediately turned toward Lin Ran.

He naturally hoped that Lin Ran would be the one to start.

After all, in his view, Lin Ran definitely had the strength to crush the other young prodigies!

After all, a peerless Prodigy like Lin Ran was something he was seeing for the first time in his life!

He feared that even Her Majesty the Empress could not compare to Lin Ran in her youth!

Seeing the Green-robed Elder look at him, Lin Ran immediately understood and knew what the other was thinking.

A wicked smile curled at the corner of his mouth as he lifted his feet and walked slowly toward the battle stage.

At the same time, that young Prodigy from the Thunder Ancestor Dao Mountain also stepped forward and walked toward the battle stage.

The footsteps of the two were surprisingly synchronized, as if they shared a telepathic connection.

Lin Ran and this young Prodigy were both startled for a moment, but they tacitly remained silent, merely stepping onto the battle stage in silence.

Both of them were people with absolute confidence in their own strength.

Among the young prodigies present, likely few could catch their eye; only the other could be regarded as a formidable opponent!

"Daoist Seed of the Thunder Ancestor Dao Mountain—Yue Hanzheng."

Yue Hanzheng's expression was as calm as water as he cupped his fists slightly toward Lin Ran.

"Holy Son of the Flying Immortal Sect—Lin Ran."

Lin Ran thought for a moment and still used the name of the Feixian Sect.

In any case, the Feixian Sect was a power from the Zhangming Emperor Realm, and the people of the Ten Dynasties Divine Realm would not know of it.

He would let the people of the Ten Dynasties Divine Realm guess for themselves just what kind of hidden cultivation sacred land the Feixian Sect was, to produce an invincible Prodigy like him who could sweep through all the prodigies of the world!

"Feixian Sect?! What kind of power is that? Why have I never heard of it?!"

"Are you stupid? To produce a peerless Prodigy like Lin Ran, this Feixian Sect is certainly extraordinary. It's very likely some ancient, hidden cultivation sacred land; it'd be strange if you knew about it!"

"Hmm, that makes sense..."

Yue Hanzheng was slightly stunned, a look of bewilderment appearing on his face.

Clearly, he was also wondering if there truly was a hidden cultivation sacred land in this Ten Dynasties Divine Realm named the Feixian Sect!

"Fellow Daoist Lin, this move is a Seven-Star Divine Technique created by the ancestor of my Thunder Ancestor Dao Mountain while observing the Immortal of the Thunder Ancestor performing the Heaven-Reaching Thunder Law. Please be prepared!"

Yue Hanzheng raised his right hand, palm upward, fingers slightly spread. A terrifyingly violent, multicolored thunderous glow seemed to descend from the sky, landing in his palm as docilely as a kitten.

"Five Thunders God-Sealing Art!"

He struck out with a palm, and the thunderous glow that was as docile as a house cat just a moment ago suddenly became like a fierce tiger, galloping toward Lin Ran.

This terrifying thunderous glow not only possessed a fierce and overbearing intent but also carried the power of sealing.

Using the fierce thunderous glow to inflict injuries on the enemy, it could also take the Opportunity to Seal the opponent's cultivation.

It must be said that this move was indeed remarkable, truly worthy of a Seven-Star Divine Technique created from observing the Immortal of the Thunder Ancestor performing the Heaven-Reaching Thunder Law!

Lin Ran's eyelids lifted slightly as he activated the great power of the Yin-Yang Primordial Dao Ancestral Dragon and the Physical Destiny Runes. He thrust out a finger with force, and a phantom of a Heavenly God rose from the ground behind him, also striking out with a finger.

"Rumble!!"

The ultimate moves of both sides collided. The thunderous glow that the other prodigies feared deeply coiled around and strangled the finger of the Heavenly God phantom, but it was like scratching an itch, unable to cause the slightest injury.

"What?!"

Yue Hanzheng's expression changed slightly, completely unexpected that Lin Ran had already become strong to such an extent.

Like Lin Ran, he had crushed his way through, defeating opponents without any effort at all.

He had originally thought that even if Lin Ran, like himself, defeated opponents in a single move, he shouldn't be much stronger—at least, not stronger than himself.

But now, reality had given him a harsh slap in the face.

Lin Ran was very strong, far stronger than he had imagined!

Only when truly facing Lin Ran could one feel that mountain-like pressure!

"Heaven and Earth Hidden Thunder, Evade!"

Yue Hanzheng formed hand Seals, and clouds of thunder enveloped him. The Ascending Heaven Divine Finger crushed through, but it only struck the air.

"Oh? Borrowing the trend of heaven and earth to hide within it?"

"This move is indeed quite good."

A hint of interest finally appeared on Lin Ran's face as he secretly activated the Yin-Yang Innate Dao Eyes and began to observe silently.

"Correct. This move of mine precisely borrows the thunderous trend of heaven and earth to hide myself within the lightning of the world."

"If you wish to use killing moves against me, you will be contending with the lightning of heaven and earth."

Yue Hanzheng's voice seemed to come from all directions, echoing between heaven and earth.

"I don't think that's quite right, is it?"

Lin Ran said with a half-smile.

"Compared to the Immortal of the Thunder Ancestor, this move of mine is naturally showing off before a master; it cannot compare to the Immortal of the Thunder Ancestor."

"The Thunder Ancestor is the one who truly merges with heaven and earth, merges with the lightning, eternal and indestructible, with vast Dao might."

Yue Hanzheng's tone was filled with reverence for the Thunder Ancestor.

"Lin Ran, I am the Daoist Seed of the Thunder Ancestor Dao Mountain, possessing an Elementary Immortal Body—the Divine Firmament Thunder-Governing Body. With a wave of my hand, I can draw the lightning of heaven and earth and command ten thousand thunders!"

"I hope you can handle the next move!"

"Ten Thousand Thunders Manifestation!"

Yue Hanzheng fully activated the Divine Firmament Thunder-Governing Body, and the might of the thunder immediately spread throughout the entire world like a thick haze, pressing down on everyone's hearts, almost making it impossible to breathe.

Endless lightning transformed into all things: there were divine weapons, rare and exotic beasts, and even ancient mountains and rivers!

The manifestations transformed from lightning carried infinite killing intent, charging toward Lin Ran with an unstoppable momentum!
