“After a long absence, senior brother I miss the splendour of the Seven Peaks of True Martial Arts, and I also miss my brothers and teachers very much.”
The flying figure stopped in the air and smiled at Xuan Chen.
“Xuan Guang ——,” Xuan Chen said through clenched teeth.
The laughing figure in front of him, Xuan Chen would not forget in another ten years, because he was the one who helped him ascend to the position of the True Martial Sect, and was also the one Xuan Chen wanted to eliminate day and night.
At some point, and for some reason, Xuan Guang was also involved in this attack on the Daoist Sect. His arrival heralded the arrival of a local warrior force outnumbering the Daoist Sect.
“You’ve been promoted to Tong Shen? You were the one who attacked the Supreme Daoist yesterday?” Xuan Chen even asked.
He really did not expect to see this former senior brother appearing here, so much so that he lost his concentration and was struck by a palm by Bai Annihilation.
Luckily, Yin Yang Martial Arts was very good at removing force and defence, and the Daoist robe Xuan Chen was wearing was not an ordinary product, so the slap was not a big deal.
“Wasn’t it all thanks to you that I was able to achieve the rank of God? Why do you have to pretend to be confused? As for the attack on Tai Shang Daozi ——”
Xuan Guang said with a somewhat odd expression on his face, “Although senior brother had an idea, someone else did it first before I did.”
Apparently Xuan Guang, or the Devil’s Dao, also had an inside man in the Tai Zhen Palace. After all, there were quite a few sects staying at the Tai Chen Palace, and it was normal for one or two of them to be compelled by people from the Devil’s Dao to act as spies.
Whether Xuan Chen believed what he said or not, Xuan Guang suddenly struck out after a few words that appeared to be a catch-up, before even the smirk on his face faded away.
“Buzz–”
There was a buzzing sound, and space seemed to tremble as a huge palm print of black and white mixed with rolling fierce Qi lingered outside and came down with a bang.
Bai Annihilation sent out another palm, the palm energy showing its true form for the first time, the pitch-black shadow of the palm imprinting on Xuan Chen’s sword blade, forcing him to dodge in time. And then, the invisible shadow disappeared into place.
“The Heavenly Derivative Four Elephant Palm?”
Xuan Chen felt the omnipresent sense of suppression around him and knew that he was within the suppression range of the Heavenly Derivative Four Elephant Palm.
However, this Heavenly Derivative Four Elephant Palm contained a strong fierce fury, which was not what he remembered.
Since he could not dodge it, he had no choice but to attack it head-on. Xuan Chen held his sword upwards, and the two qi of yin and yang converged, forming a true qi that seemed to be tangible and invisible, which was difficult to name.
“The two rhythms rush and harmonise, Qi travels through Tai Xu.”
The figure flickered abruptly, becoming somewhat indistinct. There was a profound dao intent spreading from Xuan Chen’s body, and the sword qi he wielded seemed to have the mysteries of all things within it.
“—”
Seemingly silent, yet seemingly audible, the sword light pierced through the palm print, splitting it in two. The remnants of the sword qi grazed Xuan Guang’s shoulder, leaving a bloodstain.
“Taixu Wuji Sutra, even my battle body can hardly defend against this technique, fearful and eager!”
A thick fierce aura filled Xuan Guang’s body, reckless battle lines appeared on his face, and his entire figure pulled up three inches out of thin air, filling his wide robes to fullness.
“The battle lines of the Southern Witch Sect, so it is.”
Xuan Chen stood with his sword hanging down, lowering his eyebrows as he muttered to himself, “The True Martial Jade Bone has made up for your deficiency in perception, and even easier the Southern Frontier Witch Clan bloodline, making up for your physical deficiency, so that you have advanced to the Tong Shen level.”
“Xuan Guang, you make the poor dao marvel.”
The sword light rose again, and the unnamable sword qi cut straight at Xuan Guang who was really playing with his battle body, setting off another great battle.
“The Heavenly Demon Sect, the Blood Demon Sect, and the Southern Witch Sect, the three great origin streams of the Demon Dao all have people fighting, this meeting of the Dao has become a battlefield of the Tong Shen realm.”
Qing Yu witnessed all this from below, diving faster and faster.
The people of the Devil’s Dao were coming with a vengeance, or had come prepared. On the Daoist side, a Tong Shen realm powerhouse, Tian Yang Zhen, had died yesterday, and today, they were temporarily short of two more combatants, so the Daoist Sect had already taken a big disadvantage in this battle.
However, the Daoist clan was not yet in a desperate situation.
Qing Yu looked towards a courtyard at the back right, his gaze ghostly.
As sects qualified to compete for the position of the Daoist Sect, Divine Sky Dao and Mingxuan Guan naturally lived near the Pure Yang Palace.
The Gods of Heaven and Dragon Tiger Mountain are great enemies, and the True Martial Sect is not considered a friend.
And Mingxuan Guan ——
The first time I saw this, I thought about the object I had seen before.
The first time I saw it, I knew that it was the one who had left behind Zhang Yuanchu.
“Boom…”
A booming aura caused the storm clouds to surge in the sky as the Tong Shen realm powerhouse from Ming Xuan Guan struck.
The awe-inspiring figure stepped into the air, and every step he took caused his aura to rise again, as if there was no end to it.
The people in the air who were fighting were also intimidated by this man’s aura, and stopped to look at him warily.
“Who are you?”
The one who spoke was not from the Devil’s Dao side, but Xuan Chen, the head of the True Martial Sect.
With his aura alone, he had caused all the Tong Shen realm powerhouses present to stop their hands, so this person’s strength was evident. No one would believe that such a strong man was from the Ming Xuan Guan, who had been silent all this time.
“This seat, Pei Dongliu.”
The raised face shifted several times, and his hard, marble-like face was reflected in the eyes of the crowd, and his hid figure glowed with the aura of a man who wanted to compete with the heavens.
“Pei Dongliu, number one in the world.” The blood-clad youth from the Blood Demon Sect suddenly spoke softly.
Although it was a whisper, those present were all facing each other at the moment, and the scene was so calm that the whisper was no different from a whisper.
When they heard the name “The World’s Number One”, the faces of all those present twitched, and Pei Dongliu’s unruffled face even looked pale.
Everyone in the world knew that the most powerful person in the world was Lord Tai Shang Dao, and they also knew who the “Number One in the World” was. The name “The World’s Number One” is not a good name.
The “Heaven” of Pei Dongliu’s “Number One in the World” is the “Heaven” of the Heavenly List. The “number one in the world” is actually the “number one under the Heavenly Ranking”.
Pei Dongliu trained in the art of combat, and his combat skills were rarely seen in the past or present, and he was once called the “King of Combat”. He had once fought all over the world and defeated countless experts of the Tong Shen realm, thus making this name.
However, after gaining this name, Pei Dongliu was not willing to stop there. He had to challenge even stronger opponents.
Since an ordinary Tong Shen realm expert could no longer defeat him, he went on to challenge the strongest.
At that time, although Pei Dongliu had not yet reached the realm of the Space Opening Supreme, his combat power was much greater than that of ordinary God-Realm powerhouses. So, with the intention of challenging a stronger opponent, Pei Dongliu went to the Western Region and approached the Cang Sheng Sect.
Cang Sheng Sect’s master, Mu Cang Sheng, was the tenth in the Heavenly Ranking, the most suitable opponent for the strongest man.
