Starting with the divine power of the Great Vajra, he traversed the heavens.

Chapter 505 Harmonious Law vs. Zhou Tian Flowing Fire
Skyfire fan.

The Book of Changes states: "Heaven and fire are in harmony with man; the superior man distinguishes things by their categories."

Heaven and fire are of the same nature, making it relatively easy for them to merge.

Ren Shaoyang focused his attention on the palm strike, noting that it was three parts fierce and seven parts elusive, with the upper trigram Qian and the lower trigram Li, resembling heavenly fire descending upon the world.

"That's fucking awesome!"

He shouted loudly, and with a flick of his sleeves, he thrust out a sword, which scattered in all directions, only flickering in the palm of the big man's hand.

Ok?
The leader suddenly sensed something was amiss.

His "Heavenly Fire Together" technique combines the essence of his life's martial arts skills, with a single palm strike containing five layers of power: "integration, absorption, deflection, horizontal movement, and rotation," all unified as one. Ordinary masters, unless their skill is several times greater than his, would find it extremely difficult to neutralize.

Even someone as powerful as Bodhidharma was forced to fall into the river by this move.

But the white-robed youth in front of her had an unpredictable sword style and a leisurely demeanor, as if he were playing around.

The more violently the leader's Iron Palm struck, the more Ren Shaoyang moved about, his longsword seemingly resting on the edge of his palm, deflecting each of the five strikes, letting them come and go as they pleased.

"Hey, this is interesting!" The big man's eyes lit up, and he laughed, "It's actually the method of rhythm?"

Ren Shaoyang said, "Good eye!" As he spoke, his swordplay intensified.

Suddenly, the longsword twisted and turned, and with a soft "pop" like a bubble bursting, it drilled a hole in the palm force, and the sword tip focused on a single point and swiftly pierced in!

The leader's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed "Wonderful!" He then reversed his hand to perform the Kui Xing Kick the Dipper stance, his left palm supporting the sky and his right foot off the ground. With a sweep of his left hand, his right hand slammed down with a whoosh.

In an instant, a powerful palm strike, like a waterfall cascading from the heavens, crashed down!

"Fire and Heaven are abundant!"

The Book of Changes says: "Fire in the sky, the Great Possession. The superior man punishes evil and promotes good, in accordance with the will of Heaven." This move of punishing evil and promoting good is indeed a thunderous method.

With Ren Shaoyang attacking back and forth, neither of them could escape.

"The law is extinguished!"

Ren Shaoyang laughed loudly, his sword strikes suddenly becoming swift, sword shadows appearing in all directions. No one knew how many sword strikes he made, but layers of crimson light surged towards the big man like waves crashing against him.

"deep!"

A sonic boom echoed across the sky, and the dragon-capturing creature circled left and right, vibrating and making a chaotic noise.

Ren Shaoyang felt a sharp energy invade his meridians, causing his whole body to tremble. Surprised, he immediately used the "Harmony with Heaven's Law" technique to regulate his meridians and shouted, "Here you go!"

That sharp energy circulated within him before flowing back along the sword.

Seeing this, the burly man chuckled and said, "Boy, you dare use my kung fu to hit me?" He didn't move his hands or feet, but swayed slightly. In an instant, boundless energy suddenly erupted!

The leader waved his hand and shouted, "You have the art of rhythm, but I have 'Flowing Fire of the Heavens,' take this!"

Suddenly, with a loud "whoosh," a giant wave shot into the sky.

Ren Shaoyang swung his sword, splashing water everywhere, but unexpectedly, the water hit the riverbank, and pebbles flew and hit him.

"Damn!"

Ren Shaoyang spun around and drew his sword, shredding the rubble.

"Shhhhhh!"

Countless blades of grass burst forth from the stones, then rained down upon them.

Ren Shaoyang flicked his wrist, and with a "stop" motion, the grass lost its strength and fell down in a rustling sound.

Suddenly, the leader appeared, raised his hand and flicked it, and with a "bang," a raging fire broke out, burning along the grass.

Ren Shaoyang was also surprised to encounter such supernatural power. He pointed his longsword again and used the "Law Tracing" technique to force the fire grass back.

boom!
As their forces clashed, a huge fire suddenly exploded in the sky.

The entire space vibrated and crackled, splitting open countless dark gaps.

Ren Shaoyang felt as if the vast force had struck empty air; his chest tightened, and he almost coughed up blood. He immediately mounted his sword and soared into the air, looking up.

But then they saw the leader standing with his arms crossed, his cloak billowing and swaying like a large bird, his body radiating powerful energy.

River water, sawdust, aquatic plants, pebbles, mud, and broken bricks—all tangible things—fell into the powerful energy, tumbling and dancing in the air.

"Hey, boss!" Ren Shaoyang couldn't help but complain, "Isn't this a knock-off version of the 'Six Void Flow Technique'?"

The leader paused for a moment, then laughed heartily: "Indeed, it's very similar! However, my 'Zhou Tian Liu Huo Gong' emphasizes following the natural order and timing, arranging troops and formations, and transforming oneself into king. It's quite different from that 'self-generated divine power' Zhou Liu Liu Xu Gong!"

The burly man gave him another deep look: "Boy, what kind of divine skill are you using?"

Ren Shaoyang smiled and said, "It harmonizes with the laws of nature."

The leader raised his thick eyebrows and laughed, "It sounds a bit like 'The Way of Harmony'."

Ren Shaoyang clapped his hands and laughed, "It is indeed derived from the 'Way of Harmony'! This skill was developed by Liang Xiao and me based on the Hetu and Luoshu."

Well, Liang Xiao was doing the calculations and I was cheering him on from the sidelines.

Rounding up, how can it not be considered as being developed together?

The big man laughed heartily: "Interesting, very interesting!"

"Boss, I don't understand," Ren Shaoyang asked, "Why did you launch a sneak attack on Bodhidharma?"

"A sneak attack? No, I'm simply using their own methods against them."

The leader glanced at the river, a forced smile on his face. "Back when I was shattered, I was ambushed and beaten in the void by more than a dozen supreme grandmasters. This Hu monk was the one who attacked me the most viciously."

Ga?
Ren Shaoyang narrowed his eyes, secretly chuckling to himself, "So even the leader has been beaten up before?"

However, if you put yourself in their shoes, what if you had just broken through and found a dozen or so masters at the same level as Bodhidharma, eagerly waiting for you to fight?

Who the hell wouldn't break down and hold a grudge?

Ren Shaoyang shivered and looked at him with pity. "What kind of look is that, pity?" the leader sneered. "Back then, I didn't back down an inch!"

"Does it hurt?"

"How can it not hurt? I almost died!"

"So, you've got to get your revenge?"

"How can I swallow this insult if I don't retaliate against them one by one?"

"Then you," Ren Shaoyang narrowed his eyes, "beat me up for no reason, what's the logic behind that?"

The burly man was stunned for a moment, scratched his head, and said, "Oh my! You're so strong and so handsome, I couldn't resist!"

Ren Shaoyang chuckled: "Oh?"

The leader shook his head and sighed, "Alas! If I don't repay this debt of karma in the future, I'll be the one who suffers in the end."

Ren Shaoyang's expression shifted, and he thought to himself, "Could it be that our encounter in the Nine Realms today is the reason why the leader will give me the cheat code in the future?"

Just as he was thinking this, a long roar came from the river, like an eagle soaring into the sky, full of energy.

His anger was also quite strong.

The man in white robes and the burly man exchanged a glance, their expressions changing: "Our ancestor is about to unleash his power!"

Suddenly, the leader chuckled, turned and ran: "Beating you is a personal matter, Ancestor, don't blame me." As he spoke, he disappeared into the clouds.

With a puff!
Bodhidharma emerged from the river, cursing loudly, "You're not a human being! You're not a human being!"

Golden lightning bolts shot into the sky from his body, shattering the dark clouds and revealing the sun, moon, and stars. His unparalleled aura shook the heavens and the earth, reverberating along with the curses.

This space-time could no longer be maintained; black rifts spread rapidly like a spider web, instantly covering the entire world.

Ren Shaoyang helplessly spread his hands and could only smile wryly: "Hey, I haven't seen the old sword saint yet!"

Before he could finish speaking, the space suddenly froze, then shattered before his eyes as if a mirror had been struck by a heavy blow—
Ren Shaoyang clashed with the leader in the Nine Realms, and the "Harmonious Heaven Law" and "Zhou Tian Flowing Fire Skill" collided for the first time, causing a cataclysmic battle that nearly knocked the dog's brain out.

In the real world, however, Fengxi Town is a peaceful place.

It is now late at night, the stars are twinkling, and the hottest time of the day has passed. A gentle breeze blows, and the bright moon chases the drifting clouds, having already climbed over the mountaintop and hangs high in the sky.

The moonlight seemed to carry a coolness, driving away the remaining heat.

The night in Fengxi Town becomes exceptionally comfortable. The leaves rustle along the riverbank, the water murmurs, and residents sit and enjoy the cool air.

Ding'an did not carry a sword. Instead, he wore a coarse cloth jacket, carried a large urn on his back, and slowly walked across the stone bridge toward Zhonghua Pavilion.

Twelve years later, this blockhead became increasingly fond of rambling: "Oh dear, little beggar, really! I've been saving up 'peach blossom wine' for twelve years, why did you take it all out?"

"And the Nameless Senior and Pig King Senior too! They can drink so much, they don't leave a single drop!"

"But the braised chicken that my sister-in-law made was so delicious! Gun Gun and Pang Hu were drooling all over the place, haha!"

Ding An sighed, "Sigh, these drunkards, they're still not satisfied with this? They want me to fetch more wine? Humph! I'll drink them all to death!"

Just then, a group of snotty-nosed kids came running over, shouting, "Uncle Ding'an! Uncle Ding'an!"

Ding'an sighed, "You've already eaten your fill tonight, why are you still bothering me?"

A little girl with pigtails said with a grin, "Boss Hongxiu said that as long as we find Uncle Ding'an, there will definitely be delicious food!"

"Yes, Boss Hongxiu said Uncle Ding'an is the best!"

"She never refuses anyone!"

The little kids chattered away, showering him with compliments, which made Ding An very happy. He couldn't help but chuckle and say, "Alright, alright!" As he spoke, he took out a bag of peach blossom pastries from his pocket and handed them to them, instructing them, "Eat slowly, don't get indigestion."

"Hehe! Thank you, Uncle Ding'an!"

The children happily accepted the peach blossom pastries and ran off, shouting, "Uncle Ding'an, when are you getting married?"

Ding An's face darkened: "A bunch of heartless bastards, can't you even speak properly!"

"Hahaha!"

Not only the snotty-nosed kids, but even the adults watching from a distance burst into laughter.

Ding An was furious and tried to explain himself, saying strange things like it wasn't that he couldn't find it, but that his standards were too high.

Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.

Helpless, Ding'an could only cover his face and run wildly, heading straight for Zhonghua Pavilion.

Under the cover of night, a group of Japanese ronin sneaked into Fengxi Town swiftly and silently, like ghosts.

They were calm and swift in their movements.

The leader was a burly man with a topknot, a long face, dark skin, thick eyebrows, and a downturned mouth, giving him a very menacing look.

His forehead was full and shiny, his temples were slightly raised, and his large hands had a metallic sheen, clearly indicating that he had cultivated his internal energy and external skills to an extremely high level.

Suddenly, he waved his hand and shouted, "Stop!"

Gah!
The ronin stopped as if by one, bowed their heads and replied, "Yes, sir!"

A man walked up behind him and said respectfully, "Captain Funakoshi, this is the Chunghwa Pavilion!"

Looking at the restaurant's signboard in the distance, the wine signboard swaying in the breeze.

The man grinned: "Is Nameless here?"

The subordinate chimed in, "The Nameless One is known as the 'Martial Arts Legend,' and is the strongest master in China besides the 'Three Fiends'!"

The man sneered, "That's excellent! First, defeat the Nameless One, then find the Three Villains! I, Tang Shou Funakoshi, will witness the pinnacle of China!"

Just then, a man in the distance awoke like the wind.

Ding An calmly brushed past them, hands tucked into his sleeves.
