The strength displayed by Chu Nan took Huo Ba by surprise, even in the Imperial Capital, few martial artists of his level existed.

Growing to such a level in the small Qingxuan Province already spoke of his extraordinary nature.

Even Huo Lingjun was defeated at his hands.

Huo Ba had secretly resolved that if such a prodigy could not be brought under his command, he would kill him to nip any potential threats in the bud.

All eyes were on Chu Nan, the promise of breaking through the Sea of Clouds, the qualification to enter the Imperial Capital.

Would Chu Nan refuse such terms? Impossible, right?

After a slight pause, he softly said, "I am surprised."

Seeing this, Huo Ba smirked slightly, knowing Chu Nan was tempted and said, "Shouldn't it be surprise?"

But Chu Nan gently shook his head, "I'm surprised that the martial artists of the Imperial Capital are as foolish and arrogant, as ignorant as you."

"Back then, Huo Lingjun said something similar, and then she ran away with her tail between her legs after I beat her."

"As for you... you won't have that opportunity!"

Hearing Chu Nan's words, Huo Ba's expression turned extremely grim.

He had made a promise, with such generous terms, yet Chu Nan still refused.

Is this person truly confident, or is he arrogant enough to disregard even the Imperial Capital...

That is the cultivation holy land of the Celestial Crossing Realm, compared to anywhere in the Qin Kingdom, the Imperial Capital is far superior.

Huo Ba coldly said, "Chu Nan, you'd better think carefully before deciding, this is an opportunity to break through the Cloud Sea Realm, something many people can't even wish for."

Chu Nan slashed with a sword, passing by Huo Ba's side, answering Huo Ba's words.

"It took me less than a year to go from the Martial Arts Realm to today's Divine Illumination Realm."

"The Cloud Sea can be shattered with a flick!"

Everyone was shocked, no one expected that in Chu Nan's eyes, the Cloud Sea Realm was so easily shattered.

Zhi Qingge was also amazed by Chu Nan's bravado, repeatedly praising, "Well said, what is the Imperial Capital anyway."

"Without your protection, can't we break through the Cloud Sea Realm? You strong races take yourself too seriously."

Huo Ba's face was as cold as ice, he had confirmed Chu Nan was not going to follow him.

If he couldn't obtain him, he'd destroy him, a murderous aura exploded within him.

"Fine, fine, fine!"

"Since you're so stubborn, I'll show you the power of the strong races of the Imperial Capital."

Immediately, Huo Ba snorted coldly, his body turning into a residual shadow, sweeping with a gust like a hurricane.

His speed was far beyond Zhang Lei before.

Chu Nan's pupils narrowed, with killing intent also reflected in his eyes, and he met the attack with a punch.

"Thunderous Tyrant Fist!"

Crash!

The two forces collided in midair, the deafening roar scattering the clouds above the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect.

Huo Ba retreated ten steps in succession, while Chu Nan retreated over twenty steps.

Seeing this, Huo Ba sneered, "For someone in the third level of the Divine Illumination Realm to withstand one of my moves, your strength is indeed impressive, but this is your limit."

As the words fell, Huo Ba's eyes were filled with even more killing intent.

Chu Nan, however, showed a disdainful smile, "Imperial Capital martial artists are nothing special, since Huo Lingjun got away last time, I'll make it up with you today."

As the words fell, Chu Nan's body began to transform in midair.

Soon, a humanoid demon beast with its entire body covered in dark red scales, tail emerging from its waist, appeared before everyone, a fierce and violent aura pervading the air.

Huo Ba was in the sixth level of the Divine Illumination Realm, Chu Nan without using the Desolate Profound Transformation could hardly have the power to kill him.

"Demon Blood Mutation Technique?" Huo Ba judged in his mind and then smiled, "If this is your trump card, then today you cannot escape your doom."

With a shout, light flashed in Huo Ba's hand, a dragon-patterned long staff appeared, clearly a royal grade Spirit Martial artifact.

The long staff swung, stabbing towards Chu Nan like a long snake.

Chu Nan wielded the Blood Pattern Sword, immediately striking it, colliding with the long staff in midair.

Crack!

Light exploded, the two forces burst in the air, fragments of Sword Qi and Spiritual Power scattered outwards.

Huo Ba revealed a surprised expression, not expecting this strike to be evenly matched with Chu Nan.

Taking advantage of the situation, Chu Nan taunted, "Is this the power of the Imperial Capital's strong race? If that's all, you are doomed to die at my hands today."

Seeing Chu Nan dare to declare he would kill him, Huo Ba's face showed anger, "How bold! Chu Nan, you forced my hand."

Instantly, Huo Ba's aura erupted, spewing out like a volcano in all directions.

A golden armor emerged on him, the earth shook as Huo Ba's aura exploded.

The Power of Earth permeated around Huo Ba.

"Chu Nan, to die under my Earth Awakening Resonance is enough for you to be proud," Huo Ba said arrogantly, charging at Chu Nan like a giant mountain.

Chu Nan slashed with his sword, the Blood Pattern Sword landed on Huo Ba, producing a painful hum.

Bang!

The long staff thrust towards Chu Nan, hitting his chest.

Chu Nan, like a meteor, was struck down from the air by Huo Ba, creating a deep pit.

Huo Ba slowly landed, step by step walking towards Chu Nan, "Chu Nan, if you kneel and beg me to be your master now, it's not too late, otherwise my next attack will take your life!"

A few breaths passed in a flash, Huo Ba did not receive Chu Nan's plea for mercy, but rather a torrent of flames.

"Celestial Fire Torrent!"

A sky-filling wave of fire surged from the pit where Chu Nan was, instantly engulfing Huo Ba.

The intense heat caused his flesh to begin to shrivel, a sinister look appeared on Huo Ba's face, "Chu Nan, I will extract your soul, so you will always suffer, unable to live, unable to die!"

Huo Ba tore through the flames, the armor on him burned crimson, making him appear extremely battered.

"Celestial Star Burst!"

With a fierce shout, Huo Ba, like a meteor, launched his entire body towards Chu Nan in the pit.

In his path, the spreading waves lifted countless grass, wood, bricks, and stones.

Chu Nan climbed out of the pit, seeing Huo Ba charging in, he immediately motioned with one hand, revealing a golden small tower in his palm.

"Dragon Slaughter Tower, go!"

After breaking through the Divine Illumination Realm, this was the first time Chu Nan used the Dragon Slaughter Tower, its power under the Divine Illumination Realm cultivation was even more terrifying than before.

Rumble!

Accompanied by the sound of dragon roars, the Dragon Slaughter Tower shot out of his hand, growing larger and meeting Huo Ba's direction.

Bang!

A man and a tower collided, and the seemingly unstoppable Huo Ba was sent flying.

His body crashed into a grand hall, causing the entire hall to collapse.

"Having come to my Cyan Mountain Sword Sect, even if you're from the Imperial Capital strong race, you must crawl on the ground like a worm."

"Dragon Slaughter Tower, suppress!"

Under Chu Nan's control, the Dragon Slaughter Tower landed directly on Huo Ba's head, its terrifying weight pressing down like a thousand-foot mountain.

Huo Ba, who had just prepared to get up, was heavily pressured, truly like a worm pinned to the ground.

"Chu Nan!"
