Chaos Heaven-Dominating Technique

Everyone’s gaze was fixed upon the four golden orbs of light; no one noticed what was happening on the high platform.

With the arrival of the Northern Domain’s Four Heroes and Shen Haoran, the great hall instantly erupted with activity. In the scramble for the Saint Emperor Sect’s inheritance, disciples from the second-class Sects no longer cared about who was stronger. They attacked anyone they saw, launching frenzied assaults on anyone who stood in their way.

But no matter how chaotic the situation became, no one dared to pick a fight with Shen Haoran. The memory of him dispatching the Diamond Death Warrior back in the plaza was still fresh in their minds. Who knew if he might suddenly decide to pull a similar move on them?

Shen Haoran stared at the four golden orbs of light zipping through the air and asked Changmao in his mind, ’Which one should I go for?’

Hearing Shen Haoran’s question, Changmao was taken aback for a moment before replying teasingly, ’Oh? That doesn’t sound like you. Since when do you leave such treasures for others?’

’Tch. You think I want to?’ Shen Haoran shot Changmao a mental glare. ’Forget about whether I *could* even get them all. Even if I did, it would incite a public outcry. All these Martial Artists would swarm us, and we’d never leave this hall alive!’

’I know, I was just kidding,’ Changmao chuckled. ’Go for the one to the northeast. The thing inside gives me a sense of déjà vu, like I’ve seen it somewhere before.’

’Déjà vu? You’ve seen it before?’ Shen Haoran asked. The object within the orb was completely shrouded in golden light. Even his Spiritual Thought couldn’t penetrate it, leaving him clueless as to what it was.

’I don’t know. Just trust me on this,’ Changmao said, shaking his head. ’Hurry up, or someone else will beat you to it!’ Hearing this, Shen Haoran wasted no more time. With a flash of movement, he shot toward the orb of golden light.

The light from this particular orb was much dimmer than the other three, so fewer people were fighting over it. When Shen Haoran joined the fray, however, the expressions of the other Martial Artists soured.

Shen Haoran paid no mind to their expressions. The golden orb was still ownerless, and whoever seized it would do so through their own skill. After joining the battle, his figure flickered, continuously closing in on the orb at a speed countless times faster than the other Martial Artists.

The golden orb seemed to feel the pressure from Shen Haoran, and its speed suddenly skyrocketed. It shot back and forth across the hall’s ceiling like a golden bolt of lightning. The other Martial Artists were stunned by this sight. It seemed the orb had just been toying with them before. At this speed, almost no one could possibly catch up!

’It wants to compete with me in speed?’ A strange smile played on Shen Haoran’s lips as he watched the orb transform into a golden lightning bolt. Speed was his specialty. He had already reached the Fifth Floor in his Cultivation of the Earth Tier Body Technique, the Nine Heavens Shocking Cloud Step. His speed was already astonishing, so much so that even a Spirit Aspect Stage expert could only watch him disappear into the distance. This golden orb had truly picked the wrong opponent to challenge in a contest of speed.

Shen Haoran chuckled. A few afterimages flickered at his feet, and he vanished on the spot. All the onlookers saw was a blur before Shen Haoran appeared directly in the golden orb’s path, blocking it.

Shen Haoran’s abrupt appearance made the golden orb jerk to a halt before it immediately tried to change direction. But before it could get far, Shen Haoran was in front of it again, this time accompanied by a pair of giant hands formed from pitch-black flames.

Seeing this, the golden orb shot backward again. A cold sneer formed on Shen Haoran’s lips. "Still trying to run? You think you can escape?"

With that, Shen Haoran formed a Sealing Technique with his hands. The giant flaming palms instantly sealed off all the orb’s escape routes. He then moved in, ready to seize it.

But just then, two blasts of Spiritual Power struck his giant flaming palms, punching a hole straight through them. Seeing the opening, the golden orb instantly shot through it, escaping Shen Haoran’s grasp once more.

At this, Shen Haoran’s brow furrowed. He looked down and saw Ouyang Shaoyu standing not far away, a faint smile on his face.

Noticing Shen Haoran’s gaze, Ouyang Shaoyu slowly walked forward and said nonchalantly, "My apologies, but I’ve taken a liking to this item as well."

Hearing this, Shen Haoran’s eyes narrowed. He retorted coldly to Ouyang Shaoyu, "Then come and get it, if you have the skill!" With that, his figure flashed as he once again gave chase to the golden orb.

Ouyang Shaoyu snorted coldly, his body also blurring into an afterimage as he gave chase. Their speeds were incredible, and in an instant, they had caught up to the orb. As if by a tacit understanding, both reached for it at the same time.

However, just as they were about to grasp the golden orb, a cold light glinted. A sharp dagger appeared in Ouyang Shaoyu’s hand. In the next instant, he switched targets to Shen Haoran, thrusting the dagger straight at his heart.

"Hmph!" Shen Haoran had anticipated such a move from Ouyang Shaoyu. With a flip of his wrist, a pitch-black Flaming Longsword materialized in his hand to meet the dagger.

CLANG...

The sound of metal on metal rang out between them. The immense force from the impact sent both of them flying backward.

But in the next moment, they charged at each other again. Both Shen Haoran and Ouyang Shaoyu knew that to obtain the item within the golden orb, they first had to eliminate their opponent.

BOOM!

Their figures collided in mid-air like two meteorites. A shockwave visible to the naked eye erupted from the point of impact, forcing the surrounding crowd back.

The commotion from their clash echoed through the entire hall, and everyone couldn’t help but look over. When they saw Shen Haoran and Ouyang Shaoyu locked in fierce combat, looks of astonishment appeared on their faces.

’Hmph. Let the dogs fight it out. Saves me the trouble of dealing with them later,’ Xue Shitian snorted coldly as he watched Shen Haoran and Ouyang Shaoyu battle. He paid them no more mind and launched another attack toward a golden orb in the air.

Quite a few Martial Artists shared Xue Shitian’s sentiment. Shen Haoran and Ouyang Shaoyu were arguably the strongest fighters present. One less competitor meant a larger share of the prize for everyone else. In the face of personal gain, nothing else mattered. They cast a cursory glance at Shen Haoran and Ouyang Shaoyu’s battle before throwing themselves back into the scramble for the golden orbs...
