Duan Shikong was blatantly disregarding the Holy Son of the Earth Sect!

However, the crowd didn't react much. Although the words were harsh, they were essentially true.

The main reason was that the impression of the Earth Sect's Holy Son being a good-for-nothing was too deeply ingrained. Even reaching the finals of the Prodigy Battle couldn't change that.

He hadn't been through any tough battles, so everyone's impression of him hadn't improved much.

Of course, there was some change... but it was far from enough to compare with the two on the stage at this moment.

Chen Xiao himself didn't care much. After all, everyone looked down on the Earth Sect's Holy Son, which had nothing to do with him, Chen Xiao.

However, the Holy Daughter of the Earth Sect, mixed in with the crowd, was indignant for her Holy Son senior brother!

"Hmph, you shortsighted fools, just wait to be slapped in the face by my Holy Son senior brother!"

Li Miaozhen said proudly in her heart.

On the high platform, the Purple Firmament Dao Leader's face was ashen. She urgently wanted to know the extent of Hu Lifu's strength from the Five Gods Sect.

If he had indeed communicated with more than three Dharma Aspects, then Chen Xiao would be in trouble.

Of course, it would only be troublesome. With Chen Xiao's strength, winning wouldn't be difficult, but only if he summoned the Seven Gods Dharma Aspect.

However, that would risk exposing his identity, which could lead to unnecessary trouble.

Below the stage, everyone had different thoughts.

The two on the stage had much simpler ideas.

All they had to do now was get rid of the other!

After hearing Duan Shikong's words, Hu Lifu grinned, "What you said isn't entirely unreasonable. My master also told me that you have to take one bite at a time. Thinking about the final opponent before defeating you is my mistake!"

"Hmph, I'm just telling you to use your full strength. You can't defeat me with what you've shown!"

Duan Shikong had absolute confidence in himself. He knew that the other party was hiding his strength, but wasn't he doing the same?

Having reached this point, who wouldn't have some trump cards... Of course, it couldn't be ruled out that some people were eliminated before even revealing their trump cards.

For example, Duan Shikong's junior sister, Duan Yuyan.

"Then we'll wait and see!"

Hu Lifu said with a sneer.

As soon as he finished speaking, another Dharma Aspect appeared behind him.

This time, the Dharma Aspect was a giant rat!

Although they had expected it, the crowd couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Regardless of strength, the image alone was shocking enough!

After all, not every cultivator in the Immortal Hidden World had seen a true Dao Integration Realm expert!

As the rat Dharma Aspect appeared, Hu Lifu's cheeks suddenly caved in, becoming thinner, and fine, light gray fluff grew on his face.

The fluff was dense and abundant, making it look very disgusting.

"Tch, scum from the gutter!"

Duan Shikong spat. "It's your honor to be my opponent, but it's also my misfortune, because you're too disgusting!"

"So, I plan to end this battle as soon as possible!"

After saying that, Duan Shikong's figure suddenly swelled!

He was already nearly two meters tall, and after this surge, he became at least four meters tall!

Along with the increase in size, his golden muscles also bulged, the lines like carvings, sharp and distinct, very beautiful!

Then... in full view of the public, Duan Shikong struck poses, showing off his muscles!

"Sure enough, muscles are justice..."

Chen Xiao muttered to himself.

On the high platform, everyone was stunned, but Duan Yanzhuo laughed loudly, "As expected of my disciple, he really has what it takes, ah ha ha ha!"

"Hmph, idiot..."

Hu Lifu sneered. The next moment, his figure shrank, and he suddenly disappeared.

Duan Shikong carefully sensed his surroundings but couldn't feel the other party's aura, and was immediately dumbfounded, "Huh? Gone? Where did this little rat go?"

Just as he was wondering, he suddenly heard rustling sounds coming from under the stage, as if something was moving quickly...

"Hmph, you dare to use your petty tricks in front of me? How laughable!"

The corners of Duan Shikong's mouth twitched, revealing a strong disdain. Then, he punched downwards.

Bang—

The sturdy stage floor, reinforced with magical power, was directly shattered into rubble by Duan Shikong's punch.

A figure was firmly grasped in Duan Shikong's hand, and when lifted up, it was none other than Hu Lifu.

"Hahahaha, little rat, aren't you going to die?"

Hu Lifu's entire body was firmly grasped by Duan Shikong's hands, one hand pinching his head, the other binding his feet.

After Duan Shikong grew taller, his arms became longer and his shoulders became wider. The roughly 1.75-meter-tall Hu Lifu looked like a large sausage in his hands.

"Die!"

Duan Shikong shouted to the sky and exerted force with both hands. With a ripping sound, Hu Lifu's body was directly torn in half from the middle.

Intestines and internal organs fell out with a crash, and blood splattered everywhere.

"Roar—"

Duan Shikong roared to the sky, venting the thousands of heroic feelings in his chest.

Seeing this scene, the audience from the Immortal Hidden World revealed expressions of shock.

People in the Immortal Hidden World cultivated the Supreme Emotionless Dao, and rarely even fought, let alone killed people.

A scene as bloody, brutal, and violent as this was the first time most of them had ever seen it.

However, while Duan Shikong was shouting, he couldn't help but feel a sense of doubt in his heart.

Is that it? Was it that easy?

Judging from the strength the other party had shown, he shouldn't have won so easily!

Almost the instant this thought arose in Duan Shikong's mind, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck.

One had to know that after cultivating the physical body to his level, it was already difficult to feel pain.

And this pain was from the inside out, a tearing pain.

In fact, he was indeed being torn apart...

A sharp claw pierced through the back of Duan Shikong's neck, which was wrapped in thick gold paint, and stabbed deeply into it!

This claw, like a rat, belonged to Hu Lifu, whose face was covered in dense fluff!

At the same time, the corpse torn apart by Duan Shikong had turned into a section of wooden stick.

Hiss—

In front of the giant Duan Shikong, Hu Lifu was like a little monkey.

His fingernails pierced into the back of Duan Shikong's neck and scratched downwards...

Zzzt—

A long, conspicuous crack appeared on Duan Shikong's back.

The flesh on his back had been clawed away by Hu Lifu's claws, revealing white bones, as if a hollow gully had appeared!

"Ah—"

Duan Shikong let out a miserable scream.

This time, everyone heard clearly that he was in pain!

On the high platform, a trace of shock and heartache appeared in Duan Yanzhuo's eyes, and he murmured, "What a brilliant substitute technique. Could it be that the brat from the Five Gods Sect has even communicated with weasels?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge weasel Dharma Aspect appeared behind Hu Lifu!

At this point, Hu Lifu had communicated with four Dharma Aspects.

Everyone was dumbfounded, with incredulous expressions on their faces.

Four Dharma Aspects. One had to know that the Five Gods Sect only had five Venerable Dharma Aspects, and he had communicated with four of them alone. What a genius!

Moreover, the most important point was that Duan Shikong seemed to have no chance of winning!

Buzz—

Boom—

Just then, a stream of pure golden gas suddenly erupted from Duan Shikong's back!

The pure golden gas was extremely powerful, directly pushing Hu Lifu, who was hanging on Duan Shikong's back, away.

At the same time, the flesh and blood on Duan Shikong's back was also rapidly growing. In just two or three seconds, his injuries had recovered as before.

"Hehe, well done, my disciple. You can't be defeated so easily!"

Duan Yanzhuo's muscles were tense, and he was clearly very excited.

A burst of fierce cheers also erupted from the crowd.

This place had clearly become Duan Shikong's home ground, and no one would support a piece of trash from the Five Gods Sect.

"Hehe, four Dharma Aspects, is this your true strength?"

The fighting spirit in Duan Shikong's eyes grew stronger and stronger, like a blazing flame. "Very good, you snake and rat scum have angered me. It seems I have to get serious with you!"

After saying that, Duan Shikong's body shook, and a ball of golden light slowly condensed behind him, gradually becoming solid.

The golden light continued to rise, soaring into the sky, quickly reaching a thousand meters above the ground!

When the golden light faded slightly, a golden figure appeared from within the golden light.

He was clad in golden armor, holding golden double maces, majestic and dignified!

A war god descending from the sky!

"This is... the War God Dharma Aspect! No wonder Senior Brother Duan has always been so confident. So, the Holy Son of the Human Sect has already achieved Dao Integration!"

On the high platform, a representative of a super sect exclaimed directly.

The so-called Holy Sons and Holy Daughters refer to cultivators under the age of eighty. Those over eighty are not eligible to be Holy Sons or Holy Daughters.

Eighty years old is actually only considered adolescence for people in the Immortal Hidden World, whose average age is three or four hundred years!

Those who can enter the Dao Integration Realm before the age of eighty are definitely geniuses among geniuses, with unlimited potential!

Of course, every cultivator who can enter the Dao Integration Realm can be called a genius.

However, the vast majority enter the Dao Integration Realm at the slightly more mature age of one hundred and thirty or forty.

Some who bloom late enter around the age of two hundred.

Those who are even older are rare.

Because entering the Dao Integration Realm depends on will, on a breath, a surge of energy.

This will can be understood as the will of high spirits.

So, the older you get, the weaker this will becomes!

That being said, Duan Shikong, who entered the Dao Integration Realm during his time as a Holy Son, is a rare talent seen only once in a thousand years.

While this is directly related to the nurturing of the Human Sect, a super sect, it mainly depends on Duan Shikong himself.

Therefore, Duan Shikong was indeed qualified to proudly say this at this moment: "Hehe, I said long ago that in this Prodigy Battle, I am the only prodigy, and only I can become the final winner!"
