Boom!
Boom!
Energy vibrated.
Within Tiankeng, out of nowhere, a battle broke out.
Swish!
An afterimage flashed.
At a certain intersection, a long-haired young man was recovering his energy. Suddenly, in front of him, a shadow appeared and passed by him, followed by an old man. After arriving at the intersection, the old man paused and looked at him, "Where did he run to?"
"Huh?" The long-haired young man was stunned for a second before tremblingly pointed at a direction, "Over there."
"Humph!"
That old man sneered. It was obvious he didn't want to waste more time.
After he left, the long-haired man licked his dry lips and looked at the intersection where the black shadow went. Obviously, he had pointed the wrong one to the old man. That shadow went to the other side. What's more unfortunate was the intersection the black shadow went was a dead end!
"My chance is here."
That long-haired young man was excited.
The cruelty of this trial was beyond his imagination. With life domain and peak domain espers around, all they could do as an absolute domain esper is flee! Who would have thought that they aren't even eligible for a token?
Four hours had passed, and he didn't even have a chance!
He didn't even dare to touch those life domain and peak professional espers. The moment he saw them, he fled. All he could do now is rely on luck to find someone weaker. When he thought he wouldn't have a chance, one man actually delivered himself to his door!
"Hehe, to cause a peak domain esper to chase him, he definitely has a token with him." The long-haired young man smirked, "Kill him and hide. Then this daddy's future is guaranteed."
Looking left and right to make sure there was no one nearby, the long-haired young man headed to the other direction.
Phew~
After confirming that the foe was no longer chasing him, Su Hao sighed in relief.
It's too terrifying!
At first, he thought that the current him is already strong enough. Never did he expect that even within this maze, even when he has a physical advantage thanks to his body, he still got oppressed horribly! The moment he saw a peak domain esper, he fled! The moment he met a life domain esper, he fled! As for absolute domain espers, usually they won't have a token with them.
"Damn it." Su Hao cursed for a second.
Since he reached 4, 999 points, Su Hao's physical body alone is no weaker than an absolute domain esper. If he's able to perfectly capitalize his advantage in physical body, he can definitely contend against an absolute domain esper. Even if the foe has powerful origin techniques, he could still suppress that absolute domain esper!
Of course, these are all only in theory.
It's all because the only origin technique mastered by Su Hao is Mountain Breaker!
The number of people with physical body talent in the Su family is close to zero. In fact, the probability of getting a grade A physical body talent is near zero. Because of this, the Su family has no suitable origin techniques. As for the remaining universal origin techniques, their power isn't as great as Mountain Breaker.
Su Hao could only give up.
To improve his strength in a short period of time, even if there is some growth while in Tiankeng, the only way is to find powerful physical origin techniques!
As for his physical fitness?
When trying to breakthrough, no matter how much energy he absorbed, his strength won't increase. There is literally no difference between 36% and 20%. Only when he reaches 100% will that the energy integrated within his body erupt, completing the breakthrough!
As for now...
Not even one bit of energy can be sensed!
"What a fraudulent ability this is." Su Hao sighed.
Of course, these aren't the main points. The main point is, how does he get into the Tian family? This problem that was originally thought to be simple, had been disrupted by this Tiankeng trial presented by the Tian family.
Without a token, forget about entering the Tian family.
With Su Hao's strength, it's not like he won't have any killing moves. However, in the eyes of the public, once Rule Force is used, there will be the risk of him being exposed. Moreover, even if he's to kill that old man, after getting the token, can he guard it till the end?
Su Hao shook his head slightly, sat cross-legged and prepared to take a break. Just as he sat down, Su Hao's ears twitched.
"Someone is coming!"
Bang!
Su Hao stood up and instantly evaded.
Boom!
The place he originally sat at experienced a big explosion, forming a giant pit. One long-haired young man appeared in front of him. Upon seeing him, Su Hao narrowed his eyes.
"It's you?"
"Hehe." The long-haired young man smirked, "Hand over the token and I will spare your life."
"I don't have a token." Su Hao shook his head.
"Who would believe such a lie?" The long-haired young man sneered, "Then I can only kill you."
As the voice just left his mouth, the young man suddenly made a move with killing intent. Su Hao shrugged his shoulders helplessly. He really didn't have a token with him. Why do these people never believe him?
Boom!
One fist was slammed down.
Both took a step back.
Crack!
The domain of the young man with long hair actually formed a small crack. Raising his head with a slight shock, the young man's pupils shrunk. An absolute domain itself is illusory, but a crack was still formed. It's a powerful force that can only indicate that the opponent is too strong.
Too strong that the absolute domain couldn't repair it with energy in time!
Buzz~
Energy flashed.
The absolute domain returned to normal, but the long-haired young man's face wasn't looking great. The opponent's strength was unexpectedly strong, "I don't want to fight with you, but you should be clear of our gap. Just take out your token. I don't want to kill you."
"Why must you think that I have a token?" Su Hao sighed.
"Without a token, why will you be chased by a peak domain esper?" The long-haired young man retorted.
"I really don't have one." Su Hao bitterly laughed. Why do these guys never believe him?
"If you don't have one, then let me inspect you for a second." The young man sneered.
Su Hao raised his head and saw a red light within the young man's eyes. He seemed to have understood something
Whether or not he has a token or not, is that really that important?
No!
Whether or not he has a token, it's not something you clarify and that's it. Only by defeating the opponent and truly inspecting the opposing strength will one find out whether they have one or not! For these people, every token is holds hope, which is why they won't let go of any chances.
Even when you know that person doesn't have a token with a glance...
They still want to give it a try!
"So whether or not I have a token or not, I will always be interrogated and checked?" Su Hao seemed to have understood the situation he was in. If he has one, then after the inspection, he would suffer a more horrifying death. If he doesn't have one, then when one has a close physical examination, would the other party let go of such a good opportunity?
One move and you get to kill a competitor.
To allow one to come closer for an inspection itself is a big risk. Who would dare to hand oneself over to others? Thus, whether he has a token or not, he must never let the foe come close! In other words, whether you have a token or not, when you see someone appear, it's destined to be a big battle.
Inevitable!
Thus, don't think that you have no danger for not having a token.
If you really believe someone and let them inspect you, then that would result in a tragic fate.
"Seems that you finally understand." The young man sneered.
Su Hao gritted his teeth and then looked at his eyes seriously, "I want to give up this trial. After I let you inspect, will you let me off?"
"Of course." The long-haired young man smiled, "My goal is a token. It's not wise to waste my energy on you. If you're willing to cooperate, that would be even better."
"Alright." Su Hao took off his outer clothes, "Then come."
The long-haired young man stepped forward. In fact, Su Hao didn't wear much. When he took off his outer clothes, he only has an unlined garment on. There is no place to hide on his body.
"Humph!"
The long-haired young man snorted. Looking at Su Hao's relaxed composure and not using any energy, he then quietly walked closer. After searching for a bit over Su Hao's body, indeed he didn't find any token or any origin technique that hid the token.
In fact, these tokens of the Tian family are very sensitive to energy. As soon as one gets close, they would be able to find clues. Now, there is obviously no clue on Su Hao's body.
"You really don't have." The young man was somewhat at a loss.
"I already told you just now." Su Hao smiled bitterly.
"I'm sorry." The young man looked down and sighed.
"No worries, I already give up." Su Hao smiled bitterly and shook his head, "If I knew this earlier, I wouldn't have come here. I just broke through into the domain realm and thought that I could make a name for myself by joining the Tian family. Who would have thought..."
Su Hao was somewhat sad.
"No worries." The young man tried to comfort him. His long hair lowered even more. As his right hand was gently raised up, at a spot when Su Hao didn't notice, he suddenly attacked, revealing his sly face. Without any hesitation, he slammed Su Hao, "Kid, go to hell if you don't have a token!"
Boom!
Energy erupted.
The young man used all his force. With these two so close, Su Hao had no time to react, let alone when his strength is stronger than Su Hao.
"Naive kid." The young man revealed a mocking look, but at this moment, he suddenly noticed a sardonic look coming from Su Hao.
What was that?
The young man was startled, and while he's in disbelief, Su Hao made his move. His ordinary body, which was calm all this time, suddenly erupted like a tiger leaving the mountain. A horrifying force was summoned from his flesh, causing the young man to suffocate.
Crack!
Crack!
Su Hao's two arms precisely struck on his arms, causing the origin technique to let loose and erupt near them.
Boom!
Su Hao put his arm forward and aimed at the man's body. With a loud bang, he pinned the man to the ground. The pin was so tight that the man couldn't move.
"How dare you!" The long-haired young man was stunned.
He would have never imagined that he would fail. The moment when Su Hao attacked, he understood completely. This is a rare physical talent! People with such a talent, after reaching the professional realm, that's the end of their journey. As for domain realm espers, it was hard to be seen.
Because of this, he had miscalculated.
"Damn it!" The young man cursed for a second. With his arm twisted, he couldn't break away from Su Hao's hold. He simply used the energy eruption from his body to suppress Su Hao.
"Idiot, you think a physical talent is very formidable?"
Boom!
