Chapter 1042: Intimidating the Gods

Everybody inside and outside of the arena fell silent!

Nothing could be heard except their heartbeats!

The gods and their servants were wide eyed in disbelief as they looked at the Rain Clan's prince, who had been stepped upon like a dead dog.

The noble prince selected from a high-ranked clan had been insulted like that!

Was the human aware that he was not just insulting a prince, but also tarnishing the dignity of the entire Rain Clan?

"You!"

"Bastard human being, what are you doing?"

Outside of the arena—the other two princes of the Rain Clan burst into fits of rage after seeing how Mo Feng had failed so disgracefully, and how Su Ping had brazenly stepped on his head, even though they had gloated at his failure at first!

They could let him kill Mo Feng, but they couldn't let him insult the Rain Clan!

Mo Feng was the most infuriated one at the moment. His lungs were exploding due to his mounting rage, and his head went blank. He looked at Su Ping in the eye and at the foot on his face. How distinguished and honorable had he always been? He would become an unparalleled emperor in the future, yet that human ant had stepped on his head!

"You, you, you…"

Mo Feng's bloodshot eyes almost popped out. He summoned all his strength, trying time and again to push Su Ping away. However, his strength was dispersed by Su Ping every time. He pushed the ground with both hands, but his head was still being stepped upon. There seemed to be a world under Su Ping's foot!

"I'm going to kill you! Ahhhh!"

"Are those your last words?" Su Ping's voice was cold and emotionless. He watched the strange patterns on Mo Feng's body wriggling quickly and swallowing his body. Then, he raised his leg without mercy.

The moment he raised his leg… Mo Feng—who had been trying to get back to his feet—propelled himself upwards and roared, "I'm going to…"

Su Ping had stomped upon his head again before he finished the roar, at an even faster speed, with dazzling divine brilliance and overwhelming power of faith.

After a boom, a sun seemed to be exploding underneath Su Ping's foot!

Mo Feng's head hit the ground at an even higher speed. Then, it exploded. Brain matter and blood splashed far in every direction. Golden blood was spreading on the ground!

All the gods held their breath.

That human being had killed the Rain Clan's prince under everyone's watch!

Although one of the duel's participants would surely die in the arena, everybody was shocked to find that the victim was not the human, but the honorable Rain Clan's prince!

Su Ping had shown shocking strength since the beginning of the battle. In particular, his second world was an astounding revelation; a human had condensed a second world while still being a Celestial God. Many God Warriors were incapable of such a feat!

"You!"

Outside the arena—both of the Rain Clan's princes changed their expressions to reflect troubled feelings. Mo Feng's death was a good thing for them; there would be one less competitor. However, Mo Feng's death was truly humiliating. He had been brutalized and killed by a human being!

The prince had even summoned the Ancestral God's protection and the God Scaring Curse, but he was still unable to turn things around!

Mo Feng had made the Rain Clan lose all face in that battle!

The old man responsible for the arena changed his expression and looked at Su Ping thoughtfully. He didn't expect the battle to end like that, either.

Human beings have always been weak. Such an unusual genius who's almost as gifted as an Ancestral God has emerged among them… The old man felt conflicted.

"He's so strong. That human is unbelievable!"

"It's crazy. He even weathered through the Ancestral God's pressure. Although the Rain Clan's prince only summoned part of the Ancestral God's aura, it's already too much for us to endure!"

"Who's that human? I have a feeling that his name will spread throughout the Realm of Gods as a rising genius!"

"He's already risen. His name will be known on every continent after today's battle!"

"The Rain Clan's prince was crushed and killed by a human with a lower realm. This will be a legend that the gods will talk about for thousands of years!"

The magnificent Ancestral God's shadow faded away after Mo Feng died, and the horrifying pressure occupying the arena had dispersed. The gods and their servants looked at the young man in the arena with shock.

They felt they witnessed the acts of an unparalleled genius who was about to distinguish himself and shock the entire universe!

In the arena—after the Ancestral God's shadow disappeared—Su Ping finally stopped shivering. He had devoted seventy percent of his strength to resisting the horrifying Ancestral God's shadow as he fought. If he had bent and knelt to the shadow, he wouldn't have had the courage to fight Mo Feng!

Was it a taste of how strong the Ancestral Gods are? One tiny bit of his pressure almost collapsed me!

I'm not strong enough. I'm too weak. One day, I will stand in front of an Ancestral God and look them in the eye! Su Ping swore to himself, unwilling to stay weak.

If the others knew what Su Ping was thinking, they would probably vomit blood. The guy had killed a God Warrior prince while still being a Celestial God. If he wasn't strong, then who was?

"Woo!"

The ownerless Tiger Grief was trembling; it did not dare to approach Su Ping.

Su Ping ignored it and kicked Mo Feng's body toward the Inferno Dragon, letting it swallow the body.

That prince had a powerful divine constitution, pure blood and energy that shouldn't be wasted.

The Inferno Dragon didn't hesitate; it bit the body and chewed it.

"How dare you!"

"What are you doing?"

Outside of the arenaa—the two Rain Clan's princes couldn't hold back any longer. Not only had the guy killed their family member and stomped on his face; he had also asked his pet to eat the body?

"Make that beast stop! You think no one in the Rain Clan can defeat you?" one of the princes stood and roared; his voice echoed in the arena, with a shocking power that left everyone in awe. The Rain Clan was indeed extraordinary. Mo Feng had died, but those two guys were just as horrifying.

Su Ping glanced at the speaker; he looked particularly cold with the golden divine blood that had splashed over his body. "So what? He thought that no human could defeat you, and chose to challenge me to a duel. You think he could return in one piece after entering the arena?"

"You're asking to be killed!"

The young prince roared furiously, "Don't think you're truly invincible. You want to cause a disaster for humans?"

Su Ping's eyes were brimming with coldness. He stared at the prince and said, "Is this what the high-ranked clans too? You ask for your seniors' help when you can't defeat me? Come here if you think you're good. I can still fight!"

I can still fight!

His words echoed throughout the field; he sounded confident and invincible.

The gods looked at the human. It was obvious to them that Su Ping had exhausted his energy in the battle against Mo Feng. Su Ping would very likely fail if another Mo Feng were there!

However, Su Ping still had the courage to challenge them. He wasn't just being pretentious. The confidence in his eyes was a sign that Su Ping had more power that he hadn't used yet!

The young prince was silent for a moment. Su Ping had just killed Mo Feng and was about to have his body eaten, imposing such a heavy pressure that the prince didn't dare to say anything back.

"I'll go to the Rain Clan and challenge all of you!" declared Su Ping coldly. "If you're really capable, fight me at my level. Let's see which of us is the best one here!"

Everybody changed their expression. They were awed by Su Ping's aura again.

They had also noticed the young human was a mere Celestial God!

He killed a prince and a God Warrior while being Celestial God. Could anyone at his level defeat him?

Up in midair—both of the Rain Clan's princes looked awful. They felt humiliated by what Su Ping had said, but they couldn't come up with anything to retort. They weren't confident of beating Su Ping even if they used their full strength, let alone if they were in the same realm. After all, they didn't practice such forbidden skills as the God Scaring Curse.

However, that was the only opportunity to beat Su Ping at the moment, since he was exhausted after the battle. Even if he had the confidence of fighting again, it was strength that really mattered in a fight!

The two princes looked at each other with glittering eyes. They were waiting for the other guy to take action first.

While the two princes hesitated, the Inferno Dragon finished chewing Mo Feng's body and swallowed it; the dragon only listened to Su Ping's words. His master didn't tell it to stop, so it simply ate the body.

All of a sudden…

The Inferno Dragon felt a horrifying aura that appeared inside his body, even more horrifying than a viper. It immediately felt compelled to roar.

"Huh?"

Su Ping turned around and saw black mist rising from the Inferno Dragon's body. The black fumes carried a strange and horrifying aura; it was neither divine power nor deity aura, but something weird and special. It was wicked and terrifying.

The pet was obviously in pain while wreathed in the black mist. It roared, as if it wanted to push something out.

Su Ping narrowed his eyes, as he had figured out the reason: it was the secret technique that Mo Feng had used. The black mist's aura felt exactly the same as the strange black patterns that swallowed his body.

However, Su Ping actually dared to let the Inferno Dragon eat the body because he wasn't afraid of any accidents.

After all, he was in a cultivation site, and they could resurrect at any time.

"Hold on!" said Su Ping softly. He rushed over to stand next to the Inferno Dragon and sooth it. Then, he sent it back to the summoning space.

Unless necessary, Su Ping preferred to avoid revealing his resurrection ability in public.

After all, the Heaven Path Institute was supervised by an Ancestral God, who might be asleep or might be awake. It would be terrible if said being noticed something wrong and caught Su Ping for research.

"Humph. I told you not to eat it. Do you see what's happened?" The young prince's eyes were cold when he saw that, but there was also wariness deep inside. "Your beast is dying. The only way to rescue it is to pull the body out of its stomach."

"It's not so easy to eat the Rain Clan's prince!" said the other prince with a sneer.

The old man responsible for the arena changed his expression and secretly snorted after hearing what the young prince said. Su Ping would be haunted by that thing if he did what the prince said and pulled the body out. Then, it would be Su Ping himself dying instead of the dragon.

However, it was none of his business. He waved his hand and said indifferently, "The duel is over. Just go back."

He glanced at Su Ping with glittering eyes after saying that. He felt sorry given Su Ping's shocking talent, so he said telepathically, "It's the God Scaring Curse, an ancient curse at that. You'd better abandon your dragon right now, so that you won't be affected."

Then, he looked at the void, as if something invisible was active in that area.

He slightly shook his head and left.

Su Ping was stunned for a moment when he heard what the old man said, then became sullen. It was impossible for him to abandon the Inferno Dragon. Without a word, he dashed out of the arena the moment the barrier disappeared. He left so fast he didn't even have the time to say goodbye to Joanna.

The two Rain Clan's princes, seeing how quickly Su Ping had left, suddenly felt they had missed an opportunity. Perhaps, it was their best chance to kill Su Ping!
