Cultivation Begins from Infancy - Chapter 276

Volume 3 - Chapter 30: The Ferocity of Youth - Part 1

“Stop pretending to be divine. If you were truly of the God Race, why would you rob us? Why steal our Young Master’s treasure robe and weapon?”

Two elders of the Qin Family, though wary and filled with doubt, refused to be intimidated by Li Hao’s presence and shouted angrily to probe him further.

“He offended me. Naturally, I won’t show mercy,” Li Hao replied with deliberate arrogance.

“God Race or Ghost Race, it doesn’t matter. Once I tear your head off, we’ll see what you truly are!”

Qin Tianchen had no interest in continuing the conversation or uncovering Li Hao’s identity. His younger brother had been brutally killed, and all he wanted now was to vent his rage by killing Li Hao.

A so-called divine name trying to awe the Ancient Prodigy—how laughable!

With a swift motion, he attacked. As he stepped forward, an afterimage lingered where he had been, and his real body, accompanied by a sharp burst of killing intent, appeared instantly in front of Li Hao.

A palm strike lashed out, aimed directly at Li Hao’s head.

Li Hao was momentarily startled, his pupils contracting sharply. Without hesitation, he swung his sword, a gleaming arc of sword light slashing forward.

Boom!

Sword energy erupted, surging like a silver dragon, crashing onto Qin Tianchen’s palm.

Qin Tianchen’s palm, crystalline and flawless like glazed jade, absorbed the sword light with an almost fluid grace. The edge of the blade couldn’t touch his palm—it bore the mark of the Supreme Body.

The sword’s edge slid across, but his palm continued its path, aiming straight for Li Hao’s face.

Li Hao immediately unleashed the oppressive aura of his Diagram of All-Manifestations, his eyes blazing with wrath as a wave of lethal intent surged outward.

Roar!

It was like a tiger’s roar crashing forward, like a flood dragon emerging from the sea!

Tiger Pressure! Blood Sea Savage Flood Dragon Diagram!

The two oppressive forces surged out in tandem, shaking the very soul. Qin Tianchen’s palm hesitated for an instant, giving Li Hao just enough time to strike with a counterpunch. His fist collided with Qin Tianchen’s palm, creating a powerful explosion of force that sent both of them hurtling back several hundred meters.

The brief exchange revealed the strength of both combatants.

“It’s the Qin Family’s Peerless Legacy Movement Technique, Three Thousand Shadows!”

“What speed! It’s almost like teleportation. So this is the true strength of Qin Tianchen?”

“And yet that youth actually withstood it!”

Observers on the surrounding peaks were stunned by the rapid clash. Many still stared in awe at the lingering afterimage of Qin Tianchen’s initial step. The shadow was so vivid that it seemed real, only disappearing after Li Hao forced Qin Tianchen to retreat.

“If he had attacked us, we wouldn’t have even had time to react before being slain by Qin Tianchen!”

“Hmm?”

Qin Tianchen swayed slightly, feeling a faint numbness in his palm. The overwhelming force of that punch carried a domineering, invincible quality.

His eyes narrowed as he finally acknowledged that the youth before him wasn’t just some nobody. No wonder this youth had killed that useless old servant, forcing him to use a Reverse Fate Opportunity.

With strength like this, his younger brother likely never stood a chance of escaping.

This realization darkened Qin Tianchen’s gaze with icy malice. His aura surged, releasing a torrent of true power as he struck again.

He drew his sword, unleashing a brilliant sword light that seemed to split the clouds in the sky.

“Let me show you how to wield a sword!”

This time, his movement technique was even faster. Shadows appeared in rapid succession as his original body left a trail of afterimages in its wake.

From the trajectory of the shadows, it seemed as though he was launching a frontal assault.

However, Li Hao suddenly pivoted, slashing to the side. His sword light tore through the air, arriving later yet striking first.

Clang!

A shrill metallic screech echoed as Qin Tianchen was forced out of his near-teleportation speed. The sword stance he had been gathering turned into a hasty block, and the force of Li Hao’s strike caused his qi and blood to churn. It felt as if he had collided with a solid wall.

Qin Tianchen’s body wavered slightly before erupting into a cascade of shadows, dozens upon dozens, encircling Li Hao completely. He executed the true essence of his movement technique!

In an instant, over a hundred Qin Tianchens appeared in the void, each wielding a sword and attacking from different angles.

The sight was terrifying, causing many onlookers to shudder in fear.

Li Hao’s expression grew solemn as he discerned Qin Tianchen’s cultivation level—Reverse Fate Realm.

Yet this was the strongest Reverse Fate Realm expert he had ever encountered. That movement technique was undoubtedly at the Absolute Technique Stage, comparable to Heaven and Earth Unbounded Technique.

Old Feng’s movement technique was already at a half-step Absolute Technique level.

Once perfected, it could even rank among the pinnacle techniques of the Absolute Technique Stage, making it nearly impossible to counter.

As the countless Qin Tianchens closed in, Li Hao’s figure flickered, executing the Heaven and Earth Unbounded Technique to vanish from the encirclement. His gaze swiftly locked onto the faint, transparent shadow concealing Qin Tianchen’s true body. He slashed toward it.

Heaven’s Grasp Sword Intent!

Shrinking space, wielding the Reincarnation Sword Technique, shaking heaven and earth!

This strike condensed two layers of sword intent, erupting like concentrated auroras, appearing instantaneously before Qin Tianchen.

Qin Tianchen’s pupils shrank in shock. He hadn’t expected Li Hao to locate his true body.

Furious, he swung his sword.

Boom!

Frost-like sword energy shattered into whirlpools. The remaining sword force tore through, shredding Qin Tianchen’s treasure robe.

The hundred shadowy Qin Tianchens vanished without landing a single strike.

Before anyone could react, the battlefield had shifted. Li Hao had already forced Qin Tianchen back with a single sword strike.

“What!”

“Qin Tianchen actually lost?”

“Who is that youth? He defeated Qin Tianchen in one move again!”

The crowd was aghast, staring at Li Hao’s figure in disbelief. His movement technique seemed to also belong to the Peerless Legacy!

Cultivating a Peerless Legacy required immense talent, as it was a technique comprehended by Absolute Technique Stage experts. It contained profound truths and a path to sainthood.

For Li Hao to grasp such a technique at the Three Immortals Realm and use it effectively was evidence of his terrifying level of mastery.

“Could this youth truly be a prodigy of the God Race?”

“Am I seeing things? His aura is faint, yet the parts that leak out clearly show he’s only at the Three Immortals Realm?!”

The crowd buzzed with shock, their voices filled with excitement and disbelief.

It was true that prodigies could fight across cultivation levels. But now, Qin Tianchen—himself capable of such feats—had been defeated in turn.

...

In the crowd, several figures of extraordinary bearing fixed their gazes on Li Hao. Even they, who held Qin Tianchen in high regard, found themselves stunned as the furious Qin Tianchen failed time and again.

“Damn it!”

Qin Tianchen, forced back by the sword energy, felt his arm tremble. The strength Li Hao unleashed wasn’t just equal to his—it was stronger!
