Chapter 1983 - 1976: Am I Really This Awesome?

"Senior Brother Gu Xiao, you’re awesome!"

"Senior Brother Gu Xiao, mighty and powerful!"

...

When Zhang Menglong stepped on Ji Xuan, the alliance martial artists finally snapped out of their earlier stupor. They cheered and jumped up and down, as they had won the final victory in this battle against the Divine Profound Hall!

"Ji Xuan, our grudge ends here!"

Zhang Menglong slightly increased the pressure under his foot, and Ji Xuan’s head burst open instantly. The power at the peak of the Dao Realm directly destroyed his body and soul, causing the Hall Master of the Divine Profound Hall, a generation of formidable figures, to fall.

The elders and several vice hall masters of the Divine Profound Hall were all shocked and frightened as they looked at the ghastly corpse on the ground.

The dominance Zhang Menglong now displayed was something no one could counter. If he wished, he could kill everyone here in an instant.

"Brother Gu Xiao, what should we do with the remaining members of the Divine Profound Hall? Should we disband them or cripple them?"

"It’s not necessary," Zhang Menglong said. "The so-called upper beam not straight, lower beam crooked; the Divine Profound Hall became so arrogant and overbearing starting from its leadership. In the end, it all stems from Ji Xuan’s ambitious desires to annex all superpowers. It’s also him who indulged the Divine Profound Hall members to keep causing conflicts, even if not directly instructed by him, he was certainly involved."

"Then what do you suggest?"

"Replace the leadership team. I don’t believe there are no good people within the entire Divine Profound Hall. As long as the leadership changes its mindset, naturally, they will strictly restrain the disciples of the Divine Profound Hall. As for the position of Hall Master..."

"Senior Li Yang!"

"Brother Gu Xiao!" Li Yang could actually foresee what was going to happen next. Even though he tried hard to suppress his excitement, his body couldn’t help but start trembling slightly. He had waited too long for this day.

"Mr. Li Yang was originally one of the founders of the Divine Profound Hall. Having you manage the Divine Profound Hall now is like returning the ownership to the rightful owner. I hope Mr. Li Yang will thoroughly reorganize the entire Divine Profound Hall and strictly discipline its disciples."

"Brother Gu Xiao, rest assured. The incident of Ji Xuan will never happen again in the Divine Profound Hall," Li Yang immediately promised.

In fact, everyone clearly knew, even though Zhang Menglong is currently just an ordinary outer sect disciple of the Sunset Sect, the leaders of the 18 superpowers are all genuinely admiring him.

In other words, he has already become the invisible overlord, although everyone would not take the initiative to mention it, it is already a fact.

As long as Zhang Menglong wills it, the leader of any superpower could be replaced immediately. He is the ruler of this continent!

...

The battle at the Divine Profound Hall concluded, and all the superpowers returned to their original places to begin rebuilding their sects.

Although this time, each superpower suffered severe losses, with only about two or three-tenths of their strength preserved, it might not be a bad opportunity to break and establish anew.

All the superpowers have obtained inheritance from ancient superpowers from Zhang Menglong, and their next task is to spend a considerable amount of time digesting their gains and then start cultivating a new batch of talents. At most in several hundred years, all the superpowers will become renewed, even stronger than before.

After that day, Zhang Menglong mysteriously disappeared. He had avenged his great enemies, and there was nothing tying him to this place anymore. What he needed to do now was fulfill his destiny, but before that, he still needed to do something.

He had been occupying Gu Xiao’s body for a long time. Previously, because he was within the Divine Cultivation Realm, he could only cling to a sliver of the chance to revive Gu Xiao, but now, he was preparing to break through to the Dao Realm, at which point he would have enough power to resurrect Gu Xiao.

Zhang Menglong sat cross-legged at the edge of the continent, countless crystal cores swirling around him. The surging energy was so thick that it even made the air hard to breathe.

Countless warcraft gathered nearby, as even a tiny bit of leaked energy was great nourishment for them. Moreover, for some reason, the warcraft seemed almost entirely immune to the soul shards contained within the crystal core energy.

The energy needed for Zhang Menglong’s advancement was so vast that this state was maintained for over a year.

During this time, many people sensed the energy there, but when they learned it was Zhang Menglong, no one dared to disturb him, and they even warned their friends and disciples to stay far away from that area.

"It’s about time!"

The energy within Zhang Menglong had accumulated to its limit, and his life level had long reached the pinnacle of life evolution. At this moment, the accumulation of energy transcended from quantitative change to a qualitative change, and he smoothly entered into the Dao Realm.

"My strength is a hundred times greater than at the peak of the Divine Cultivation Realm," Zhang Menglong roughly felt his own power. He was now only at the first-grade of the Dao Realm, but his energy reserves had already surpassed that of an ordinary peak Dao Realm martial artist!

With the improvement of his realm, many of the martial arts techniques Zhang Menglong cultivated had also made groundbreaking progress at this time.

"Ah, it’s been so long since I’ve used my own body!" Zhang Menglong detached from Gu Xiao’s body, the latter still in a state of a half-comatose slumber.

"You’ve really lucked out, following me for years, from a wastrel to becoming a Dao Realm martial artist, you probably never imagined it, huh?" Zhang Menglong said to himself.

Although he had detached from Gu Xiao’s body, the body Zhang Menglong used during cultivation was Gu Xiao’s; his own body and Gu Xiao’s body grew at nearly the same pace.

During this time, Gu Xiao barely had a faint consciousness. To exaggerate, it was as if he took a nap, and upon waking, he became a person of great influence in the entire continent.

Currently, Gu Xiao’s body coursed with the bloodline of the Destruction Demon Dragon, and his perception of the power of fortune reached the pinnacle of the Nine Nether Sunset Art. Besides, he held countless top-level martial arts techniques, his body akin to a vast treasure trove awaiting his own exploration.

Zhang Menglong infused a stream of energy into Gu Xiao’s body, and soon, Gu Xiao awoke from his coma. His eyes were filled with confusion; he distinctly recalled being in his room before losing consciousness.

Seemingly, a meteor had crashed into his house, and then he lost consciousness.

"Hello, Gu Xiao!" Zhang Menglong greeted him.

"May I ask who you are?"

"Oh, my name is Zhang Menglong, consider me a friend," Zhang Menglong explained everything that occurred while he was attached to Gu Xiao’s body, which to Gu Xiao’s heart, felt like a stormy sea.

He... no, Zhang Menglong, had accomplished so many earth-shattering feats!

After a long while, he finally came to terms with this fact, as he casually crushed a mountain range with one palm. The surge of power flowing within him left him with no choice but to believe Zhang Menglong’s words.

"So now, what am I exactly?" Gu Xiao asked, "Am I the imperial son-in-law of the Yanlan Empire, an outer sect disciple of the Sunset Sect, or..."

"Now, you are the overlord of this entire continent!"

Gu Xiao’s lips moved several times before squeezing out a sentence, "Am I... am I really that powerful?"
