91: Are you hiding your strength again?
"Finally out!"
When the seven-colored Void Realm portal appeared on the quest stele, Old Master Deng and the others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
However, Old Master Deng's face showed worry as Yu Xiu was about to emerge.
During the time Yu Xiu was in the Holy Tomb, many people had already arrived.
When Yu Xiu entered previously, only a few hundred people had gathered here.
But now, thousands of people had gathered, with many Martial Venerable powerhouses among them.
"Hmm? What's going on?"
Yu Xiu walked out of the seven-colored Void Realm portal, seeing so many people around, and couldn't help but frown.
However, at that moment, Old Master Deng led two hundred death warriors and immediately surrounded him.
"You're finally out."
Yu Xiu frowned and said, "What's with these people? Why are so many suddenly gathered here?"
Old Master Deng explained, "In the month you were in the Qiusuo Realm, news of this place has already spread."
"Now, among these people, there are many Martial Venerable powerhouses. With our strength, it will be very difficult to deal with them."
"So, I told the commander about this place earlier, and according to the schedule, the reinforcements will arrive here this afternoon."
As Old Master Deng spoke, Yu Xiu was dumbfounded.
A month?
He had been in the Holy Tomb for a month?
How was this possible?
In his opinion, he had only been in the Holy Tomb for a few hours at most.
Amidst his surprise,
Yu Xiu seemed to recall something.
It must have been a long time that had passed while he was asleep in the pool.
But sleeping for a whole month still left Yu Xiu a bit confused.
However, after thinking about it, and then recalling the information that appeared in his mind later,
Martial God Foundation.
It seemed nothing was impossible anymore.
Moreover, he now suspected that this world was not just a simple Martial Dao world.
So, sleeping for a month didn't seem so unacceptable.
"Yu Xiu, the Qiusuo Realm is a treasure of the entire Huaxia. Now that the Huaxia Secret Realm City is in crisis, we hope you will share what you gained in the Qiusuo Realm for the safety of the Huaxia people."
"That's right, the nation comes before the individual. We hope Yu Xiu, you can consider the bigger picture."
"Yu Xiu, share everything you gained in the Qiusuo Realm."
Although the expressions of these leading figures were amiable, their eyes were full of greed, as were those of the thousands of people around them.
"For the bigger picture?"
Yu Xiu suddenly laughed in anger.
"You people talk to me about the bigger picture? In the cities where you reside, when you exploit commoners, when you deprive them of Cultivation resources, did you talk about the bigger picture?"
"When you forced commoners to join the Blood God Sect, did you talk about the bigger picture?"
"And then there's the Training Camp you proposed, with no restrictions on death. When you made these moves, did you consider the bigger picture?"
"You don't need to deny it; I know the change in the Training Camp rules was proposed by your Family representatives."
"Now, with the Secret Realm City in crisis, the Elders are all on the front lines and have no time to deal with outside matters."
Yu Xiu said coldly, "Now you talk to me about the bigger picture? With your families' selfishness, do you think I'll believe you?"
"Stop all this nonsense! I'm too lazy to argue with you here. Don't you just want to snatch my Opportunity?"
"Don't use moral blackmail. Besides, aren't you just trying to force me to act? I'll fight to the end."
The leading figures, hearing Yu Xiu's words, showed a sly smile in their eyes.
They naturally knew Yu Xiu wouldn't hand over the Opportunity; it was just a pretext.
Anyway, they had already tried to persuade Yu Xiu with national righteousness; now he was just being ungrateful.
Thus, under everyone's greed, they could take the Opportunity to eliminate Yu Xiu.
At that time, they wouldn't have to worry about blame from above; after all, the law doesn't punish a crowd!
"Yu Xiu, your actions are a betrayal of your race, a betrayal of Huaxia."
"Do you know how serious this crisis is? How can you be so selfish?"
"In your heart, are the lives of the Huaxia people so worthless?"
"You'd rather enjoy the Opportunity alone than use it to enhance the nation's overall combat power? You'd rather the Huaxia people perish when the crisis descends than give up your selfishness?"
This accusation made it sound as if Yu Xiu was a great villain.
These words also made Yu Xiu laugh.
"You constantly speak of the Huaxia people, but when have you ever truly cared about them?"
"If the crisis descends, in my opinion, the people who will protect the nation and quell the crisis will always be the commoners you oppress, never you so-called powerful families."
"With countless times more resources than commoners, how many of you will appear on the battlefield in times of national crisis?"
"Now you use the people to pressure me? I ask, do you bastards deserve to?"
At this point, Yu Xiu's expression darkened again. "In my Qin Province, when did the Blood God Sect dare to show its head? But in your provinces? How did the Blood God Sect act?"
"Is this what you constantly say, that you care about the Huaxia people?"
"Fine!"
"More words are useless. If you want to fight, then let's fight! Keeping you villains around, you'll only be a burden in times of national crisis."
As he spoke,
Yu Xiu merely stomped his foot and charged towards the few leading figures who had spoken earlier.
But as soon as he leaped, Yu Xiu noticed a difference.
His body seemed lighter than before, his strength seemed more contained, and both his speed and reaction had greatly improved.
Even more astonishingly,
Yu Xiu actually felt his blood boiling within him, as if a mysterious power inside him was pushing his body into an excited state; it was truly miraculous.
Not only that,
He could even glide through the air and briefly hover.
This!!!
Could this be the benefit of the Martial God Foundation?
My current body seems to have sublimated many levels, more like a qualitative change.
Boom!
With just one punch as he landed, several leading Martial Venerable powerhouses were easily sent flying over ten meters away.
"This power..."
Honestly, Yu Xiu himself was a bit stunned, his mind buzzing.
When had his strength increased so much? It was terrifying.
"Try the Qi Induction Technique!"
At this moment, Yu Xiu prepared to briefly try the Qi Induction Technique he had memorized.
Although the Qi Induction Technique had not yet been formally Cultivated to a proficient level,
Simple blood Qi manipulation was still possible, and furthermore, using blood Qi to unleash Elementary Martial Skill was also no problem.
Boom!
Another punch.
The several Martial Venerable powerhouses who were attacking Yu Xiu were instantly sent flying back, spitting blood.
Yu Xiu was bewildered!
Was this still the power of an Elementary Martial Skill?
"Yu Xiu!"
"Have you been hiding your strength all this time? Are you a Martial King powerhouse?"
Yu Xiu's might had completely shocked those Martial Venerables. In their opinion, a Martial Venerable absolutely could not possess combat power like Yu Xiu's.
Rumors outside said Yu Xiu was only a One-Star Martial Honor, but this combat power...
When could a One-Star Martial Honor utterly defeat veteran Martial Venerables?
If Yu Xiu used multiple Talents stacked, defeating a Martial Venerable would be understandable.
But Yu Xiu did not use multiple Talents stacked; he merely used an Elementary Martial Skill.
And with that, he could completely defeat veteran Martial Venerables?
No one would believe it, not even ghosts.
Could Yu Xiu really be a Martial King powerhouse?
