Chapter 261: Chapter 261: Signing a Life-and-Death Agreement
For that peerless inheritance, the elders all endured.
They had someone bring pen and paper, wrote down the life and death agreement, and had Shi Hao and Lu Yun sign it.
“Is that sufficient?” Luo Haodian asked in a deep voice, already very impatient.
Shi Hao smiled, “Let’s begin.”
As the news spread, more people rushed over, even reaching the Artefact Hall, Formation Hall, and Hall of Elixirs.
The crowd parted, making space for Shi Hao and Lu Yun.
Lu Yun looked at Shi Hao coldly, “Don’t you feel like a clown?”
“Why do you say that?” Shi Hao asked.
“Hmph, pandering for attention,” Lu Yun stated, “You’re merely at the Soul Nurturing level and clearly no match for me, yet you still put on a show and create this life and death agreement. Isn’t this the behavior of a clown?”
He was annoyed because he was the one who had to perform alongside this clown!
Lu Yun was immensely confident, although he was just a True Disciple, he believed that with his powerful Thunder Spirit Root, not even Hong Taihe would be unbeatable, as long as he could cultivate the highest techniques of the Zhenwu Sect.
—Even if realms are the same, the cultivation techniques can greatly differentiate the power and soul strength of a Martial Artist.
Thus, he could only fight across two levels, approaching three, but if he cultivated more advanced techniques, he believed he could definitely conquer the challenge of three levels.
Then, how would Hong Taihe compare?
The only one he truly feared was actually Shi Hao, for this fellow could fight across four levels, a truly monstrous feat.
Therefore, he must seize the opportunity to eliminate Shi Hao.
Shi Hao flashed a smile, “Whether I’m pandering for attention, we’ll know after we fight, and then we’ll see who the real clown is!”
“I really don’t know where your confidence comes from!” Lu Yun scoffed.
“Certainly not from you,” Shi Hao shook his head.
“Let me gift you another defeat, to teach you a lesson!” Lu Yun leapt forward, charging at Shi Hao.
Shi Hao stood with his hands behind his back, proudly upright.
“Really showing off!”
“But, where does he get his confidence?”
“How can Soul Nurturing compete with the Other Shore?”
“Moreover, Lu Yun is at the second island and can fight across nearly three levels!”
“Anyway, if he’s going to be defeated, might as well show off and then lose; at least he can boast about it.”
“Alright then.”
The crowd all shook their heads, it seemed only one move would be needed for Shi Hao to face a humiliating defeat.
Lu Yun’s lips also revealed a hint of scorn as he struck out with a palm using a third of his strength.
This strike was enough to severely injure Shi Hao.
Let you jump!
Only when the palm was about to hit, did Shi Hao make a move.
To the onlookers, his punch, though apparently slow and deliberate, met Lu Yun’s palm just right.
“Huh!” Luo Haodian and other Self-Observation powerhouses all uttered a cry of surprise, this punch mesmerized them.
—To them, Shi Hao’s strength was normally negligible, but this punch was effortless yet swift, containing an indescribable essence, sparking the thought that if they could master this essence too, their combat power would greatly increase.
Telling this would be unbelievable, prominent Self-Observation powerhouses actually wanting to learn from someone at the Soul Nurturing realm?
But before they could ponder further, bang, fist met palm, and they saw Lu Yun stagger back repeatedly.
And Shi Hao?
He stood firm, as unshakeable as a mountain.
What!
Seeing this, everyone was shocked, their scalps tingling, unable to believe their own eyes.
How could this be?
How could someone at the Soul Nurturing realm be so powerful as to repel the Other Shore, and with the second island level no less?
A sheer fantasy.
“He broke through!”
“Definitely so.”
“Only the Other Shore can counter the Other Shore, it’s an iron law!”
“His quick progression to the Other Shore must be due to that peerless legacy he received!”
“I’m so envious!”
“And on top of that, he’s so handsome!”
Amidst the exclamations from the crowd, Lu Yun steadied his stance.
He had only used a fraction of his strength, so when he discovered that Shi Hao’s power was like a vast ocean, he promptly enhanced his strength, although he was still sent flying, he remained unharmed.
He looked at Shi Hao with utter astonishment, his eyes filled with disbelief.
So quickly, this young man had reached the Other Shore!
How could he possibly kill him now?
Such a monstrous talent, once surpassed in cultivation, could he ever surpass him in return?
Therefore!
Lu Yun had a moment of realization, this was his only chance to kill Shi Hao.
Moreover, they had even signed a life-and-death contract.
Very well, even at the risk of losing the powerful legacy and being scolded by Luo Haodian, he must kill Shi Hao.
Otherwise, he would forever be merely following Shi Hao’s lead.
“No wonder you’re so arrogant, it turns out you’ve broken through to the Other Shore!” he said grimly, drawing his sword that flashed coldly like autumn water.
Shi Hao smiled faintly, “Back then, you tried to kill me with your high cultivation. Today, I will settle this score with you!”
“Hahaha!” Lu Yun laughed loudly, displaying extreme disdain, “You’ve only just reached the Other Shore, whereas I am already Second Island. You can surpass by four levels in combat, but I can almost surpass by three levels.”
“So, you want to settle scores? On what basis!”
He was extremely arrogant, attempting to provoke Shi Hao into the fiercest battle possible. Then, if he “accidentally” killed Shi Hao, Luo Haodian, even if dissatisfied, would not blame him.
Shi Hao stared at him, a murderous intent rising in his gaze.
“When I kill you, you’ll know on what basis I do so.”
“Ridiculous!” Lu Yun roared, attacking Shi Hao again. His figure soared, enveloping Shi Hao like a white cloud.
With a slash of his sword, the cold light exploded and thunder roared.
Shi Hao smiled, his fist clenched and thrown, the thunder boiling similarly.
Thunder Spirit Root! Both were Thunder Spirit Roots!
The crowd was shocked once more. Among all Spirit Roots, the Thunder Spirit Root was the strongest in attack. It could be said that out of ten thousand people possessing Spirit Roots, at most, only one could have a Thunder Spirit Root.
Yet now, both these individuals had Thunder Spirit Roots.
Thunder wrapped around the Dark Force, pounding towards Lu Yun.
Boom!
Lu Yun swung his sword, striking the thunder, and his whole body trembled violently, as if he were having a seizure.
How could this be?
Everyone was stunned. In the battle of Elemental Powers, Lu Yun was actually being defeated by Shi Hao!
My god, the strength of the Elemental Power is entirely determined by the strength of the soul. Lu Yun, being Second Island, how could he possibly lose to Shi Hao?
Monstrous, too monstrous!
Shi Hao’s figure flashed, and he was already in front of Lu Yun, swinging a punch.
Lu Yun hastily twisted his body, narrowly dodging the punch.

Shi Hao was unfazed and pointed at Lu Yun, emitting a zzzz sound as tiny arrows of thunder shot out, their speed indescribable.
Soul Force radiated outwards!
Everyone wanted to cry out in shock; having a Thunder Spirit Root was already astonishing, but Shi Hao could even project his Soul Force outward.
Dear God, why do you favor one person so much?
And moreover, make him so handsome.
