Chapter 48: Successive Emergence of Experts
"Who are you talking about?" Tian Ming shouted with a furious face.
"Whoever is there calling, I'm naturally talking about whoever it is." Zhang Huaming responded with a look of disdain.
"Despicable! You're looking for death." As soon as Tian Ming's words fell, his figure darted towards Zhang Huaming like a ghost, with bursts of explosive sounds echoing through the air.
"Kayan, I'm here." Zhang Huaming directly stopped Kayan who was about to make a move, his figure rushing up like a whirlwind.
Bang! Bang! A crashing sound came from the void, and in the next moment, two figures separated and flew apart.
Thud! Zhang Huaming stumbled backwards three steps before regaining his balance after hitting the ground.
Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud!!! After landing heavily on the ground, he retreated seven or eight steps in a row before stabilizing his body. Then, with a "pu" sound, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and his complexion suddenly turned pale.
Tianfeng saw that his son was at a disadvantage and suddenly became furious, without even saying hello, he directly took action. A person in the realm of the God of War is indeed not bragging, before the attack arrived, the air in the entire hall seemed to solidify.
"Brother, I'm here." Seeing Tian Ming actually take action, Karyn's small face suddenly flushed with anger, and her figure disappeared on the spot.
Boom! Boom! Boom! A series of explosions rang out, and two figures retreated simultaneously. The entire great hall shook several times, and everyone in the great hall was knocked back by the aftershocks.
"Halt." A loud shout like thunder rang out in the great hall, causing everyone inside to feel a shock to their hearts. Those with lower cultivation even spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot.
"Senior brother Yu, what is the meaning of this?" Tian Ming asked with a face full of anger, staring at Yu Zong who was blocking his way.
Yu Zong's face turned cold and his eyes narrowed: "This is the Yu family, not the Tian family, so Tian family members should be more restrained."
"Do you want to intervene?" Tian Ming said with a threatening tone.
"I'm telling you again, this is the Yu family's home, not your Tian family's. If the master of the Tian family insists on starting a fight here, don't blame me for not giving face." Yu Zong's tone was filled with murderous intent, and at this moment, he had truly become enraged.
"Kaiyan, come back." Zhang Huaming's voice rang out.
"Yes, brother." Karyn heard his brother's call and immediately responded with a voice, then retreated to Zhang Huaming's side, vigilant and guarding the direction of the Tianjia position.
"Haha! Senior Yu, the prestige of the Yu family is indeed great! I, Tian Jia, have taken note of this matter." Tian Ming let out a cold snort and retreated back to the Tian family's camp.
"Oh! The Tian family has been quite arrogant lately? They actually took my words as a mere rumor, not afraid of being exterminated. You can try to move the Yu family and see." A cold laugh sounded, and in the next moment, several figures suddenly appeared out of thin air in the grand hall.
The King of Heaven glared at Tian Ming after he woke up, let out a cold hum, and then sat down in the camp of the Heavenly Family.
"Haha! Tianba brother, this one must be a top-notch disciple, right? Not bad, under the age of twenty and already has Wu Zun cultivation, great prospects ahead!" An old man who came with Xuan Tianba smiled and praised.
"Ming Er, come here."
"Yes, Master."
"Come, let me introduce you. This is Zheng Qintian of the Zheng family, Xue Xiao of the Xue family, Liu Mao of the Liu family, and Yan Rui of the Yan family. These are your four uncles."
"Yes, Master." Zhang Huaming bowed to Zheng Qintian and the other three, saying: "Your junior has seen the four seniors."
"Haha! No need, it's our first meeting, I'll give you a gift. " Zheng Qintian said with a smiling face, and the next moment, a crystal clear jade stone appeared in his palm and was handed to Zhang Huaming.
"What a fine piece of Wu Yuan Jade!" The younger generation of the Zheng family, who had some knowledge and experience, looked at the jade in Qin Tian's hand with eyes shining brightly. The same was true for the younger generation of the Tian family. After all, this piece of Wu Yuan Jade was too exciting to ignore. Generally speaking, if a cultivator possessed a piece of Wu Yuan Jade, their cultivation speed would be at least twice as fast as usual.
Note: In the world of martial arts, the hardest currency is not gold or silver, but Wu Yuan Stone. There are different grades of Wu Yuan Stone: lower-grade, middle-grade, high-grade, top-grade, and premium-grade. The exchange rate between each grade is 1:100, meaning that a middle-grade Wu Yuan Stone can be exchanged for 100 lower-grade Wu Yuan Stones.
"Since Old Zheng has already given a gift, we elders must also show our respect. Otherwise, this old fellow will laugh at us in the future! Come, my strange nephew, this is what I've prepared." Liu's family ancestor, Liu Mao, said with a smile, holding out a flower that seemed to be woven from fresh blood.
"Snow Lotus?" Zhang Huaming's expression changed slightly as he saw what Liu Mao was holding, a top-grade spiritual herb. This is the best spiritual herb for refining elixirs! Even if it's not used to refine elixirs and taken directly, anyone below the Martial God realm can increase their cultivation by a small stage.
"Wow! Old Liu, you're really generous! You actually gave away a top-grade spiritual herb just like that. Did this old fellow strike it rich somewhere recently?" Yan Jia's ancestor, Yan Rui, said with a smile on his face, but his hands moved swiftly, and a black object appeared in his hand.
"What is this thing?" Zhang Huaming slightly paused, and in the next moment, a sharp light flashed through his eyes.
"Hehe, Tianba brother, I know my alchemy skills are not as good as yours. There's nothing good to give, so I'll just give this small Nine-Turn Pill that I recently refined to your nephew. Don't blame me." Yan Rui's tone was full of humility, but his expression seemed like he was seeking praise.
"Nine Turns Dan?" Xuan Tian Ba's expression slightly froze upon hearing this, and the next moment his face broke into a smile: "Yan younger brother indeed lives up to being an alchemy genius, actually even able to refine such heaven-defying objects, Ming Er, properly thank him."
Zhang Huaming wasn't quite clear what the Nine Turns Dan was, but seeing his master and those old men's expressions, he knew that this so-called Nine Turns Dan was definitely a good thing. He hastily bowed to Yan Rui again, saying: "Junior thanks senior for the gift."
"It's just a small thing, never mind." Yan Rui casually waved his hand and said, but in his heart, he was secretly bleeding! To think that last time, in order to refine the Nine Turns Dan, he had used up all the precious materials and treasures he had collected over tens of thousands of years, and only managed to refine five pills. It's unimaginable how valuable this one pill is, so at this moment, he hated Zheng Qitian. You said you were fine, but you actually sent a Wu Yuan Jing stone, which made these people behind him suffer heavy losses.
"Old Blood, the three of us old guys have all given gifts to celebrate our meeting. What about you, Master Blood?" Yan Rui asked with a smile, turning to the motionless Blood Smile.
Xue Xiao heard Yan Rui's words, glanced at him with a cold smile on his face, and suddenly a stone-like object appeared in his hand.
"Voidbringer Stone?" Zheng Qintian and others changed their expressions after seeing what was in Xue Xiao's hand.
Kong Ming Stone, this is the main material for refining spatial rings! You know that after the great war in ancient times, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth disappeared, and some rare treasures also gradually became extinct with the disappearance of spiritual energy in this realm. Kong Ming Stone was already considered a good thing in ancient times, let alone tens of thousands of years later today, its value is simply immeasurable.
"Kid, this stone is for you." Xue Xiao's words were as rare as his smiles, and his tone was quite awkward. He directly threw the Kong Ming Stone in his hand to Zhang Huaming, then closed his mouth again, seeming to want to distance himself from the people around him.
"Junior thanks all seniors for their generosity."
At this moment, the grand hall of the Yu family was quiet and still. Everyone's eyes, whether from the Yu family or the Tian family, were fixed on Zhang Huaming. He believed that if his master were not present at this moment, these people would probably raise their arms and kill him directly, snatching everything from him.
Tian Ming's heart was even more unpalatable, grandma, others were just apprentices, those great gods all sent things, their own ancestors were also great gods, why didn't anyone send things to themselves? Grandma, this is really too unfair, people are really going to be angry to death.
Xuantian saw the scene of Yan Rui and others staring at each other, feeling both angry and amused in his heart. He opened his mouth and said: "Alright, you old guys have been fighting for many years, how are you still like this? You came just in time today, I was thinking of finding a daughter-in-law for my beloved apprentice."
"Oh! With that kind of relationship, us old guys can still ask Tianba brother for a cup of celebratory wine to drink." Zheng Qintian said with a smile.
"That is, that is."
"Tianba brother, I wonder which little girl is lucky enough to be your apprentice wife? Let me take a look." Yan Rui said with a smile.
"Xuántiān Bà, you're going too far! This marriage was clearly arranged by my Tianjia family first. What makes you say that she's the daughter-in-law you've chosen?" The Heavenly King said with a furious expression.
"What? You old fellow still don't admit defeat? If you're not convinced, let's continue with a one-on-one fight. Don't worry, I absolutely won't use my knife skills, how about it?"
"Damn it! Even if you don't use your knife skills, that little Tian Wang is still no match for you." Zheng Qintian and the others thought to themselves.
