67: Lu Hao’s true combat power!

Ming Shi's gaze, hidden beneath his black robe, suddenly turned sharp, looking at Lu Hao like a knife.

Lu Hao noticed it himself, but his heart didn't flutter in the slightest.

A mere Undergoing Tribulation Great Perfection was likely not qualified to make him take things seriously!

Ming Shi's hoarse voice sounded again:

"Living being, your great sin is privately summoning a wandering soul from my Netherworld. The Living Realm and the Netherworld were originally independent and do not interfere with each other; your actions undoubtedly touch upon the rules!"

Hearing his words, Lu Hao sneered inwardly, as if he had heard some kind of joke.

He had already asked the System before deciding to resurrect Daoist Tianqiong.

The System replied that there was no problem; many Cultivators would try every possible method to resurrect the most important people in their hearts.

In the vast Netherworld, there are countless wandering souls; no one would come looking for trouble because of this.

Furthermore, there are quite a few wandering souls in the Netherworld that sneak into the Living Realm.

The order of the Living Realm tacitly approves of this and does not interfere too much.

The Heavenly Dao naturally grants all living things a glimmer of survival, whether they are living beings or wandering souls.

That is why Lu Hao decided to resurrect Daoist Tianqiong.

"Ming Shi, do not try to convict me here using these so-called rules. Could it be that no one else has done such a thing?"

"As far as I know, there are not a few Cultivators in this realm who summon souls for their relatives and loved ones. Have you gone to convict them?"

Lu Hao said with righteous indignation.

"Who I go to convict is not for a tiny Mahayana Cultivator like you to discuss. Today, I will take you, someone who has touched the rules of the two realms, back to the Netherworld for judgment!"

"Hahaha, what a high-sounding excuse. If I am not mistaken, you came here for my Soul Summoning Banner, right?"

Lu Hao said, staring at Ming Shi with a hint of mockery on his lips.

That's right, Ming Shi originally didn't care about these things at all. Within his territory, the number of wandering souls taken away every day was at least a few thousand, if not ten thousand.

Moreover, the number of wandering souls was constantly being replenished at an astonishing speed! So, it had no impact at all.

But today, while he was Cultivating, he suddenly detected a very familiar aura!

He had felt that aura once before—the Soul Summoning Banner!!!

Most importantly, this aura was right near where he was Cultivating!

Feeling the aura of the Soul Summoning Banner, he couldn't sit still for an instant and followed the power of the summons directly to Lu Hao's courtyard.

The attraction of the Soul Summoning Banner to him was simply too great!

When he saw that Lu Hao was merely a Mahayana Cultivator, his inner excitement was beyond words.

"I, Ming Shi, am truly lucky! A treasure of this level can actually fall into my hands?!"

"Heaven has finally favored me for once!!!"

Therefore, he wanted to use the excuse of touching the rules of the two realms to judge Lu Hao.

Now that Lu Hao had called out his true purpose in one sentence, Ming Shi was directly enraged out of shame!

"Sharp-tongued brat, daring to spout wild words with merely Mahayana cultivation! Today, I will make you wish you were dead!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ming Shi rushed straight at Lu Hao and smashed down with a fierce punch. Seeing this, Lu Hao didn't say anything more and met him with a punch of his own.

"Bang!" The two collided fiercely, and a moment later, they both flew backward.

The aftermath of the battle echoed in the courtyard.

Daoist Tianqiong's remnant soul also hurriedly hid inside the Formation, staring at Lu Hao in stunned silence.

"Holy crap! This Mahayana Early Stage can go head-to-head with a Undergoing Tribulation Perfection and not fall behind?"

"This is just too outrageous? I stayed in the Tian Yuan Secret Realm for so many years; has the outside world become this perverted?"

Lu Hao felt the opponent's combat power; it didn't seem that strong, did it? He could completely withstand it with his Physical Body alone.

Seeing that the opponent's strength was not falling behind at all, a flash of shock appeared in Ming Shi's eyes, but his movements were not slow in the slightest as he continued to attack Lu Hao fiercely.

Lu Hao met every move, fearing no technique.

The two fought more and more intensely, to the point that tiny cracks even appeared in the space within the courtyard.

Various visions emerged continuously: the Sky Roc spreading its wings and soaring, the Azure Dragon roaring wildly at the sky.

And various strange scenes appeared and vanished constantly.

After fighting fiercely for ten minutes, Ming Shi saw that he was gradually becoming no match for Lu Hao.

His heart was extremely shocked!

His internal cultivation had been consumed by more than half, but looking at Lu Hao, there was no sign of decline, as if he hadn't consumed anything at all.

In fact, Lu Hao had been fighting until now relying purely on his Physical Body to withstand the blows; he hadn't exerted his cultivation at all.

He was using Ming Shi's hand to test just how far his own combat power had reached.

And his true combat power could only be displayed after using the Cultivation Technique he had fully comprehended.

It could be said that Lu Hao had been fighting Ming Shi in a holding-back state.

However, after entangling for a while, it was about time to end it!

Ming Shi prepared to use his strongest move to end this battle.

Coincidentally, Lu Hao was thinking the same thing.

Ming Shi pressed his palms together, and instantly, countless Nether Evil Qi surged from his black robe.

The Nether Evil Qi rolled and circled constantly, as if it had a life of its own.

This Nether Evil Qi was unexpectedly many times more condensed than the aura emitted during the previous fight; even Lu Hao detected a trace of pressure from it.

The Nether Evil Qi circulated slowly, then Ming Shi instantly separated his hands.

The Nether Evil Qi around Ming Shi suddenly gathered into his right palm, and the right palm became pitch-black as the Nether Evil Qi merged into it.

After it was fully merged, Ming Shi struck with a palm directly at Lu Hao's face!

"Xuanming Divine Palm!"

Looking at the opponent's offensive, Lu Hao's gaze finally gradually became grave. "This is more like it; otherwise, I wouldn't be able to feel any pressure."

This battle also made him feel the desire that existed within his heart. A desire for battle!

Since obtaining the System, Lu Hao had never truly fought with all his might; the opponents he encountered couldn't even withstand his instinctive pressure.

Thinking about it, this time, he could finally test just how strong his combat power was.

However, before that, Lu Hao still quickly buffed himself with dozens of defensive supreme treasures.

Just in case, it's not shameful; no one's life comes from the wind.

Then Lu Hao took a deep breath, condensed all the power within his body, gathered it onto his right palm, and activated a Cultivation Technique he had already learned.

He struck out with his full force at the rushing Ming Shi!

"Great Heaven Creation Palm!"

A moment later, the two palms collided with a bang.

"Boom!"

A huge noise erupted within Lu Hao's Qingfeng Courtyard; Lu Hao's Origin Qi and Ming Shi's Nether Evil Qi rolled constantly, canceling each other out.

A moment later, the collision of the two directly produced an incomparably manic aura that spread rapidly in all directions.

The entire courtyard was constantly ravaged by this aura, impacting the protective Formation of Lu Hao's courtyard!

Even though Lu Hao's courtyard had the protection of an ancient Formation, it felt somewhat shaky.

After waiting for quite a while, the figures of the two finally slowly emerged.

Lu Hao remained motionless in the posture he had before the collision, and there was not a trace of the fight to be seen on his body.

Even his white robe did not have a speck of dust on it.
