Under One Person, Golden Light Transforms into God

He won!
For this victory, they lost their integrity, their dignity, and their families.

All of this was done just to defeat Zhang Huaidan once.

The inner turmoil resurfaced, and he kept questioning himself: Was it worth it?
These three words echoed in his heart, and for a moment, a bitter smile appeared on Ding Shian's lips.

Soon, the answer came: it was worth it!

Zhang Huaidan will also fail!

Even though he was extremely weak, a victory is a victory.

No matter how shameless or brazen he is, he still won.

Zhang Huaidan is not an invincible person!
The seemingly unreal mountain in his heart crumbled, and Ding Shian's bitter smile slowly transformed into a joyful one!

"Hahaha……"

Ding Shian burst into laughter, hands on his hips, a hearty laugh tinged with bitter tears, oblivious to the fact that he was staring at Zhang Huaidan's location.

Although at this moment, in order to achieve victory, I have become like a maggot.

But Zhang Huaidan's crushing defeat might not be any worse than his own...

The laughter stopped abruptly: "Huh!? You..."

Looking at the smiling young man, Ding Shian felt a terror that came from the depths of his soul!
Belatedly, I realized that at some point, all around was deathly silent, and not a single person made a sound.

The Tang Clan members, who had been making a lot of noise, were all dumbfounded.

Tang Miaoxing and Zhang Wang looked as if they had witnessed something unbelievable, their faces filled with a dazed expression.

A strong sense of terror surged through Ding Shian's heart. His eyes slowly opened wide. What was happening?

What just happened?!
Although his palm strike wasn't intended to kill Zhang Huaidan, it was enough to leave the exhausted man unable to get up.

But why is he completely unharmed?

Ding Shian, who had been so absorbed in his own thoughts and felt that he had won that he hadn't paid attention to what was happening outside, felt like he was going crazy!

……

"Goodness, what just happened? If I'm not mistaken..."

"That palm strike seemed to dissipate the moment it touched a real person."

"That's right, it dissipated, but the question is, how did it dissipate?"

The Tang Clan members stared blankly and muttered to themselves.

Ma Long and Tao Tao narrowed their eyes, their gazes filled with both doubt and contemplation.

“Ding Shian’s palm strike was definitely a real attack. If it were any of us, none of us would be able to withstand it head-on. Of course, it’s different for Master Huai Dan. If he were in good condition, the palm strike would be nothing to him, but the problem is that he is exhausted now.”

Ma Long muttered to himself, "Just now I thought the real person would be knocked down by this palm strike, but as soon as I touched him, he just disappeared inexplicably."

Tao Tao asked in surprise and doubt: "Could it be that the real person has some secret technique that allowed him to absorb the palm force?"

Ma Long shook his head: "Sister Tao, what are you talking about? How could we possibly absorb that devastating power? Besides, don't forget the current state of the True Person!"

Perhaps when Zhang Huaidan was in good condition, he had a secret technique to absorb the strength of others, but now that he is in such a miserable state, how much of that technique can he use?
You should know that Ding Shian's palm strike just now dissipated in an instant, and the person was completely unharmed!
Tao Tao was speechless, and the two of them were shocked.

……

"How is this possible? This doesn't make sense!" Xia Liuqing's forehead was covered in sweat.

Mei Jinfeng was even more horrified: "Master Huaidan clearly has no Qi at all, what is this...?"

Without the driving force of Qi, the Golden Light Thunder Magic cannot be used.

Master Huai Dan's protective methods were indeed powerful, but even the most skilled cook cannot make a meal without ingredients.

So the question is, what method did the real person use to dissipate Ding Shian's palm strike when there was no Qi?

Mei Jinfeng became increasingly alarmed and bewildered as she thought about it.

"Brother Xia, I really can't believe what the real person did."

Xia Liuqing's gaze was deep and unfathomable: "What did the real person do? The real person did nothing!"

"Then..." Mei Jinfeng's mind was in turmoil. If Master Huaidan hadn't done anything, could it be that it was divine protection?
Those who can prove themselves to be true beings are indeed the darlings of heaven and earth, but because they need to elevate the essence of life, they must contend with fate. Whether they are darlings or rebellious children is impossible to distinguish.

Mei Jinfeng was bewildered, while Xia Liuqing's eyes kept flickering.

……

"What's going on? What happened?"

Zhang Chulan looked completely bewildered, while Lu Lin remained silent, her eyes gleaming with wisdom.

Zhang Chulan seemed to have found a savior and looked at him eagerly: "Lu Lin, Brother Lin, please explain this to me, I really don't understand."

Lu Lin said solemnly, "I don't know either!"

Zhang Chulan's anxious expression froze, his eyes rolled downwards, and he muttered to himself, "This is unscientific. Brother Dan didn't use any golden light to protect himself, he didn't use any magic at all..."

He felt like he was going crazy.

Feng Baobao tilted her head: "You can't do it without using magic..."

Zhang Chulan was speechless. Why did Bao'er have to get involved in this?

"Of course not, Sister Bao'er. Think about it carefully. When has Brother Dan ever not used any techniques? If he didn't use techniques, could he really do it with just his body..."

Zhang Chulan's voice abruptly stopped.

I don't know who said it, but if you discard all the wrong answers, the one that's most outrageous might just be the right one!

Feng Baobao blinked: "It's just that my body can't..."

Zhang Chulan was terrified: "My mind is a mess, let me think it over."

Lu Lin trembled violently: "With just the physical body, with just the physical body, how is that possible! How is that possible!"

……

Inside the arena, Zhang Huaidan wore a half-smile. Yes, he won his bet!
The consumption of a full eighty-one pills not only tempered his body to the limit of a quasi-true person, but also broke through a layer of heavenly barrier, allowing his physical body to advance further!
He was now extremely exhausted, lacking even the strength to stand up. He had no true qi or primordial qi in his body and could not use any techniques.

It can be said that he is now at his weakest point in more than twenty years, even weaker than when he was an infant.

However, his Dharma body was initially formed!

The term "Dharma Body" refers to the physical body that has achieved something on the path to becoming a true person.

Was Ding Shian's palm strike powerful?

It is indeed powerful; if one is in good condition, the golden light protecting the body is enough to make it negligible.

But now, exhausted, he couldn't use his golden light to protect himself, and was no match for him.

However, under the newly formed Dharma body, the palm force dissipated without a trace, posing no threat whatsoever.

Zhang Huaidan's smile grew increasingly indifferent. At this moment, although he appeared to be completely exhausted, he was still someone that Ding Shian could not defeat.

This shows how powerful and difficult it is to achieve the Dharma body; even the initial stage of its formation is so unreasonable.

This is because tempering the physical body and solidifying the Dharma body is actually one of the paths to becoming a true person of an outsider sect.

In ancient times, this would have been the path to physical immortality!

……

Zhang Huaidan's ambiguous smile was reflected in Ding Shian's pupils, and his eyes, which were on the verge of madness, suddenly widened.

'Whoosh! Swoosh!' The true qi within their bodies surged, and a fierce wind rose within the Tang Tomb, blowing the robes of everyone present.

Ding Shian's eyes turned bloodshot, and a massive palm print cleaved through the air, crashing down on Zhang Huaidan with unstoppable force, like Mount Tai pressing down on him.

Upon seeing this, everyone inside the tomb slowed their breathing by half a beat, and Ding Shian's eyes widened.

Therefore, he didn't miss a single detail, watching as the enormous palm print vanished into thin air upon contact with Zhang Huaidan's body.

When water is poured into a furnace, it will evaporate, but it will also produce steam, which is traceable.

But the palm print vanished upon contact with Zhang Huaidan, disappearing in a completely illogical way.

Ding Shian stood there, stunned, staring blankly at his hands. The true qi consumed in his body was real, and the moment the palm print was pushed out was real as well.

He looked up again, but Zhang Huaidan's expression remained unchanged.

A half-smile, half-mocking, as if mocking, as if ridiculing, as if looking at a lively monkey, yet as if nothing at all, merely a calm smile.

Ding Shian's body began to sway uncontrollably.

……

'It's certain that Master Huaidan didn't use any special techniques. How did he manage to do it? Even if he just physically endured it, it shouldn't be like this.'

Tang Miaoxing and his two companions were not far away. Tang Miaoxing had witnessed two strange events and was filled with doubts.

One thing is certain: Master Huaidan has not recovered any Qi, so he cannot use any method to resist the palm strike.

The two instances of palm strikes disappearing were both due to contact with Master Huai Dan's body.

Although Tang Miaoxing found it utterly absurd, he had to admit that Zhang Huaidan had indeed withstood the attack without using any special techniques, relying solely on his physical body.

Then the problem comes again.

When it comes to the physical body, it's normal for those who undergo external training to hone their muscles and bones and use their bodies to withstand attacks from others.

But this is completely different from what happens to real people.

Ding Shian's palm strike dissipated out of thin air; it wasn't something he forcefully withstood!

Two powerful palm strikes vanished into thin air, leaving everyone baffled.

Is Master Huai Dan currently using some kind of external martial art?

Tang Miaoxing was full of guesses.

Zhang Wang was also busy.

Aside from the protective techniques, one relies entirely on the physical body to resist.

This was different from the extraordinary people he knew.

Zhang Wang was completely baffled and could only attribute it to the unique nature of Zhang Huaidan's external martial arts skills.

Neither Zhang Wang nor Tang Miaoxing could figure it out.

Needless to say, Xu Xin, who has been imprisoned for decades, is another case in point.

……

"The dissipation of those two palm strikes was merely due to your physical condition?"

"What kind of external martial arts is this? I've never heard of it before."

"No way, Ding Shian can't even handle a real person in their current state?"

The Tang Clan members were all greatly surprised and had many speculations.

Tao Tao and the others in the crowd brainstormed, and Tao Tao said, "I have never seen such a physical training technique before. Besides, the Master is a successor of the Celestial Master's Mansion and a disciple of the Old Celestial Master. Where would he have the time to train in such a way?"

Ma Long's mind raced, and he whispered, "That shouldn't be something that the external training method can do. Have you noticed that Ding Shian's palm force dissipates as soon as it touches a real person? It reminds me of the relationship between a remote control and a television. When you press a button on the remote control, the television screen goes out."

Han Yin and Li Yuan'er nodded repeatedly, but soon a deeper doubt arose in their minds.

Remote controls rely on infrared light, but what do real people rely on?
Could it be that a real person is emitting infrared rays?
But palm strikes aren't like a television set!

The group was starting to feel overwhelmed.

……

"Ninety-one pills..."

Xia Liuqing murmured as if in a dream: "What level did the True Person push his physical body to with the help of those eighty-one pills?"

At this moment, there is no doubt that Zhang Huaidan's use of the Pill Devouring Technique was solely for the purpose of tempering his physical body.

Dan Shi is the most potent poison in the world, causing double damage to the body and the three treasures.

Even if Zhang Huaidan used them for cultivation, the effects of each one would definitely be extremely abnormal.

As a result, Zhang Huaidan refined a full eighty-one pills. Xia Liuqing could hardly imagine the current level of Zhang Huaidan's physical body.

Mei Jinfeng had followed Wugensheng for a period of time, and with her experience of over a hundred years, a thought flashed through her mind: "Master, could it be that you are going to take the path of physical immortality?"

There is more than one path to becoming a true saint; physical immortality is one of the heretical paths.

Although this is an unorthodox path, those who attain enlightenment through it are extremely rare.

When Xia Liuqing heard the words "physical sainthood," her head exploded!
"A true person is one who walks the orthodox path of life and destiny. If one also seeks to cultivate the physical body to achieve sainthood, then..."

Xia Liuqing shuddered; this was not as simple as one plus one equals two.

Such an existence would inevitably amplify the intensity of calamities, and similarly, if successful, it would possess unimaginable power!
Xia Liuqing calmed her trembling heart and stared intently at Zhang Huaidan, who sat motionless on the ground.

The young man had no aura at all, appearing to be an ordinary person who was completely exhausted, but in his eyes, it was as if he were looking up at an endless mountain range!

……

"Dan is too strong, it's outrageous!"

Zhang Chulan opened his mouth wide, speechless.

Although he didn't have the depth of Xia Liuqingmei and Jin Feng's guesses, this direct and unshakable feeling still deeply shocked him.

Lu Lin sighed, her expression complicated: "I feel that right now, even if Huai Dan is just exhausted, or even if he only has one breath left, there are very few people in the world who can do anything to him."

Even though the tiger is on its last legs, no birds or beasts can approach it!
Lu Lin felt with a profound sense that, in front of Zhang Huaidan now, she barely even qualified to be a sparrow or a squirrel.

Zhang Chulan was speechless, feeling both sad and relieved.

He understood perfectly well that he could see Zhang Huaidan's face, but he could no longer see his back.

He kept telling himself that this was normal. Even if he hadn't suppressed it for ten years, Dan was still someone he couldn't reach.

But deep down, I still feel a little sad.

Today, that sadness suddenly vanished; he was numb, numb to the point of acceptance!

……

Ding Shian, who was in the room, was unable to accept the reality before him. He looked at his hands for a while, and then at Zhang Huaidan's face.

Could it be that even now, when Zhang Huaidan is completely exhausted, he still cannot defeat him?

Ding Shian is really going crazy!
Victory was within reach, just a stone's throw away. I stretched out my arms and strained my neck, but it felt like the ends of the earth.

"Zhang Huaidan!"

Tears welled in his eyes as he used the Earth-Walking Immortal technique to vanish into the earth. (End of Chapter)
