Chapter 377 Ch 377: Stormwatch Leader: Du Baicheng
After a day of rest, Ling Xiaolong departed from the Solar Phoenix Sect alongside the emissary of the Stormwatch Sect.
It took them only half a day to reach the Stormwatch Sect.
Rather than heading directly to meet the Sect Leader of the Stormwatch Sect, he instructed the Emissary to summon the Sect Leader to come personally and meet him.
Not long after, a powerful aura could explode from somewhere inside the Stormwatch Sect. This aura belonged to an expert at the Ninth Stage of the Celestial Awakening Realm.
.....
A few minutes earlier...
"Sect Leader!"
The gate of the main hall was pushed open by the emissary as he dashed inside.
Inside the main hall, the sect leader was discussing an important matter with the elders of Stormwatch Sect. He frowned deeply and traces of anger were reflected in his eyes when the door of the main hall was pushed open rudely. This content originates from n0v3lbin•
"Meng Fu, how dare to barge here? Do you have no regard for politeness or permission?"
The sect master was a pale-faced middle-aged man. His face was covered with a dark expression at this moment. His name was Du Baicheng.
The other elders also had frosted expressions. None of them liked the emissary's action of barging inside the main hall without permission.
Meng Fu didn't concern himself with these details. He hastily explained the situation, portraying Ling Xiaolong as an arrogant individual who seemed unaware of his limits. However, he also conveyed his apprehension about Ling Xiaolong's strength. He couldn't forget the overwhelming pressure that descended on him like a mountain.
He described everything precisely, including the fact that the aura emanating from Ling Xiaolong's body matched that of Sect Leader Du.
Then he conveyed to Du Baicheng that Ling Xiaolong had accompanied him to the Stormwatch Sect and expressed Ling Xiaolong's desire for Sect Leader Du to go there and personally welcome him.
"How dare he?"
Du Baicheng stood up in anger the moment he heard Ling Xiaolong's daring words. An incomparable aura exploded forth as he disappeared from the main hall.
In the next few seconds, he could be seen standing in the sky.
Boom! Boom!
Du Baicheng placed his hands behind his back and acted like an expert. The aura around his body soared and instantly created an enormous vortex in the sky.
The pressure belonging to a Ninth Stage Celestial Awakening Realm warrior instantly enveloped the entire Stormwatch Sect.
Du Baicheng's heart was filled with soaring heroic spirit. He took a step forward into the sky and disappeared in front of the experts of Stormwatch Sect.
Appearing again, Du Baicheng was just a few meters away from Ling Xiaolong.
Du Baicheng was dressed in a white robe with beautiful embroideries of several dragons that looked extremely lifelike.
Wearing this dragon robe, Du Baicheng looked like a high and mighty emperor. With great momentum, he walked towards Ling Xiaolong step by step in the air.
With every step he took, his aura increased a little.
When Du Baicheng's aura was enhanced to the extreme, even Ling Xiaolong had to acknowledge that this person was indeed powerful. Du Baicheng's aura roared like a giant dragon, showing off its might.
All of a sudden, Du Baicheng made his move. His originally slow footwork suddenly sped up, as if he had teleported.
In a moment, Du Baicheng arrived in front of Ling Xiaolong and lightly slapped him with his palm. This light palm contained a terrifying and overbearing power.
Ling Xiaolong didn't retreat. Instead, he moved forward and threw out his right fist through the air. It was incomparably domineering. His fiery punch brought the rise in temperature along.
"Interesting!"
Du Baicheng instantly determined the level and strength behind Ling Xiaolong's punch and could not help but praise.
"Although your punch is strong, you yourself are too weak." Du Baicheng had a relaxed expression. He slammed his palm into the Fiery Fist and then clenched his fist. A violent force swept out from his fist and instantly broke through the Fiery Fist.
After this force broke through the Fiery Fist, it rushed towards Ling Xiaolong without slowing down.
"Under the pressure of my aura, you can't even exert 70% of your power. How can you be my opponent when using a borrowed strength from a forbidden technique?" Du Baicheng said lightly.
However, at this very moment, Du Baicheng noticed a peculiar expression on Ling Xiaolong's face.
Immediately thereafter, a force capable of shaking the heavens and earth surged violently into Du Baicheng, sweeping out a fiery storm spanning 3,000 meters.
The impact of Du Baicheng's attack against Ling Xiaolong's Fiery Fist was absorbed into the blazing storm that seemed to have appeared without leaving a trace just at the moment Du Baicheng's attack broke through Ling Xiaolong's Fiery Fist.
"What!?" The calmness on Du Baicheng's face disappeared without a trace, and his facial expression changed drastically. He could not understand the sudden turn of events.
At this moment, Ling Xiaolong released a stronger power facing Du Baicheng without holding back at all.
Waves of powerful strength surged out with Ling Xiaolong at the center. Flames shot out, burning the surrounding air.
Du Baicheng's aura seemed to have encountered an unprecedented crisis. It immediately collapsed.
Du Baicheng used all of his aura's pressure on Ling Xiaolong, but it was broken by Ling Xiaolong in an instant.
Not only that, Ling Xiaolong seemed to have transformed into a high and mighty Fire God. Although his body did not change much, he gave the Du Baicheng the feeling that he was tens of thousands of meters tall giant.
This time, it was Du Baicheng who was being oppressed by Ling Xiaolong's powerful aura.
