Nine Nether Dragon Emperor-Chapter 354: I Feel Like I Can Smash the Chaos Boundary Sea with One Punch!

RUMBLE—

The space roared and shook as the energy lake transformed into an energy pond. All the beings were taken aback.

What astonishing devouring speed!

For a moment, a flicker of worry crept into their hearts.

The old lion's voice arose at just the right moment. "I saw his energy absorption was simply too slow, so I couldn't help but share with him the fruits of my three thousand years. I trust none of you will hold it against me?"

After a moment of stunned silence, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Not at all! You're a righteous one, Old Lion!"

"Old Lion, you've helped us out big time!"

"Yes, yes, at this rate, it won't be long before he becomes a Venerable! Let's keep it up!"

"Keep it up!"

United in their cheers, the beings were filled with enthusiasm. Although their best efforts couldn't stop the energy lake from shrinking into a pond, they were more delighted than ever. They became fully focused and brought out all the stops, especially after their efforts pushed Ning Xuan's cultivation realm to the Eleventh Layer of the Emperor Realm.

Finally, with a final roar, the energy pond dried up.

BOOM!

A terrifying aura burst forth from Ning Xuan's body. He had transcended the Emperor Realm and stepped into the Venerable Realm, becoming a genuine Venerable!

When he first entered the Tianyang Realm, Ning Xuan had only just advanced into the King Realm. Now he had leaped over two major realms!

This is no Martial Arts Initial Realm! The web novels I used to read wouldn't dare to write a plot like this! And now, it's my reality.

Ning Xuan looked at the crowd of suckers, truly feeling a bit reluctant to strike. Their faces were all beaming with smiles.

"We did it! Haven't we just made history?"

"Haha, of course! Who in all of history has ever created a Venerable in such a short amount of time?"

"This is absolutely our most perfect masterpiece! I'm almost reluctant to..."

The being hadn't finished speaking when it was interrupted. "Ning Xuan, now that you've become a Venerable, do you feel unprecedentedly powerful?" As it spoke, it eyed Ning Xuan like a wolf eyeing a lamb.

Ning Xuan nodded excitedly. "Yes, I feel like I could shatter this Chaos Boundary Sea with a single punch!" He brandished his fists, eager to give it a try.

"Haha, ambitious! But this is the Chaos Boundary Sea. Why don't we have a little spar first?" The last creature to speak laughed wildly, its gaze on Ning Xuan no longer concealed. We worked so hard for so long, wasn't it all for this very moment?! A Venerable created through forced growth... I can suppress him with a single move! I can't wait to feel the sense of accomplishment from suppressing a Human Honorable.

"Okay!" Ning Xuan replied with an equally bright smile.

On the periphery, all the beings except for the old lion wore looks of regret as they retreated.

At the same time, Ning Xuan's mind was flooded with their telepathic transmissions. Without exception, they were all telling him how to deal with the challenger. They shared the old lion's desire to make a good impression on the Great Saint.

"Are you ready?" Ning Xuan asked his opponent.

The being had just begun to nod with a laugh.

BANG!

Its body exploded. Ning Xuan had obliterated a Venerable with a single punch!

The other beings were all shocked. However, a smile flickered in each of their eyes.

Further away, the two disciples of the Great Saint were somewhat speechless.

"How can these guys be so foolish? Even we can see through it, and they think they can deceive the Great Saint?"

"They probably didn't think that far ahead at first. But as Ning Xuan's realm rose, their ambition ran wild."

The first one fell silent. After all, no being could refuse the chance to follow a Great Saint.

While only one major realm separated the Venerable and Holy Realms, the gap between them was a truly insurmountable chasm. They had followed the Great Saint for many years but still hadn't been able to cross it. This was true even in the Chaos Boundary Sea; accomplishing such a feat in the outside world was simply impossible.

"Why do I feel that something isn't quite right?" the first disciple to speak voiced his concern again before long. In just a short time, Ning Xuan had blasted apart more than five Venerables. These were not novices like Ning Xuan; they were genuine old monsters who had advanced very far in the Venerable Realm.

"Never mind them. It makes no difference to us," the other disciple said indifferently. He had noticed what was happening but didn't care. He couldn't care less whether these fools lived or died. It would be best if they were all wiped out. The two of them began to watch with cold detachment.

Ahead, one of the remaining beings spoke up. "Ahem, everyone, since it's just us left, let's drop the pretenses. Why don't we just let him choose for himself?" He, too, had noticed something was off.

"Alright!"

"That's how it should be!"

"I have no objection."

Soon, the remaining beings reached a consensus.

"Ning Xuan, would you mind sealing your Six Senses?" the old lion proposed, his approach even more ruthless.

The other beings' eyes all lit up. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"As expected of the Old Lion. What a brilliant idea!"

"The Old Lion is so thoughtful!"

"..."

The remaining beings were all very grateful to the old lion. The corner of Ning Xuan's mouth twitched, and he sealed his Six Senses as quickly as possible. After all, he hadn't had any professional training; he was genuinely afraid he wouldn't be able to hold back.

Facing the hopeful gazes of the beings, Ning Xuan decided not to play favorites.

The beings staring blankly at Ning Xuan soon understood and gave him a thumbs-up.

Drawing straws, how fair!

However...

BANG!

BANG!

After Ning Xuan drew straws twice, obliterating his opponent each time, the remaining beings began to feel a deep sense of unease.

Something is definitely wrong here! Even though the boy can't kill with a single punch like before, why does he still win every time? A Venerable created through forced growth isn't a true Venerable at all!

The remaining beings realized something was amiss, but the duels continued.

Finally, aside from the old lion, only two Venerables were left.

"Wait, I don't want to fight you—" Pfft! one of the Venerables cried out as he saw Ning Xuan still drawing straws. But Ning Xuan happened to pick him. Seeing the bright gleam in Ning Xuan's eyes, the Venerable knew he was done for. Despite retreating immediately, he couldn't escape the attack.

"You bastard! Have you forgotten who helped you raise your realm—" BANG! he roared in fury, cursing Ning Xuan, only to be struck again.

"Brother Leopard, it's no use," the old lion chimed in from the side. "Don't forget, he's sealed his Six Senses. He can't hear a word you're saying. If I were you, I'd be using my full strength."

"Old Lion, how is it that he has never drawn you?" the Venerable standing beside the old lion suddenly voiced his suspicion.

The old lion laughed calmly. "He hasn't drawn you either, has he?"

That Venerable was left speechless.

The old lion then added, "You aren't scared of him, are you?"

"Hah, me? Scared of him?!" the other scoffed. No sooner had the words left his mouth than he tried to send a telepathic message to Ning Xuan, intending to tell him about the Old Lion's Cultivation Technique. As he did, his expression changed dramatically. He snapped his gaze toward the Old Lion, only to be met by the other's faintly mocking eyes.
