One person: I am Li Buren, I cannot bear to do anything!

Do you know the story of Liu Bei's three visits to Zhuge Liang's thatched cottage?

"Even Zhuge Liang needed to be invited three times before he would come out. You've only asked me twice, so why should I agree?"

Li couldn't bear it and shook his hand.

He is about to enter the second stage of Feng Hou Qi Men, and after this matter is settled, he will go to Lu Jin to discuss the Tongtian Lu.

He is currently experiencing a bottleneck period.

"To be honest, I've recently reached a crucial point in my spiritual practice, and I didn't originally intend to fight you."

Li couldn't bear it, so he lowered his head, kicked away a pebble, and turned his back.

A cool night breeze blew against my face.

"But then I thought, when in life is there no spiritual practice? Where in life is there no crucial moment?"

Li couldn't bear it and paced forward in small steps.

"But it's precisely in times like these that it's actually..."

He turned around abruptly and met Ding Shian's gaze.

"The more one practices, the more one should cultivate oneself."

For the first time, Ding Shian felt that a person's gaze could actually be described as "sharp".

He exhaled and gave a genuine smile.

"I think you should know why I challenge masters everywhere."

"I feel that everything in this world has the potential to hurt me, so I have no choice but to keep becoming stronger."

"So strong that no one can hurt me, how about that? Doesn't that sound a bit stupid to you?"

Li Buren shook his head.

"If you weren't Ding Shian, I would think you're stupid."

"But you are indeed Ding Shian."

Ding Shian paused for a moment, then muttered something.

Then he looked up.

"Whether it's challenging you or challenging the Old Master, I just want to experience the taste of defeat."

"To be honest, I've rarely experienced failure since I became famous."

"If you're going to break through again soon, then my challenge is meaningless, and I'll have to do it all over again."

Li scratched his head, unable to bear it any longer.

"So, you mean you're not going to get it?"

The man with the buzz cut didn't respond, but instead asked a question.

"When I was gathering information before, I heard that when you were practicing martial arts at Wudang, you once shattered a mountain peak with a single palm strike?"

He grinned.

"That's why I decided to come to you. I also saw the video, and to be honest, I don't quite believe it."

Ding Shian didn't hide anything and spoke the truth.

Li Buren shook his head.

"That must be photoshopped. Shattering a mountain with a single palm strike is just too terrifying."

Ding Shian nodded: "I agree."

After a moment of silence between the two...

A voice suddenly rang out.

"I used two palms."

The night wind howled, and a silent stillness enveloped the land; something changed in an instant.

"Let me prove it, I'll just throw one punch."

"One palm strike."

The hour of Chen (7-9 AM) had passed, and the moonlight sank into the night, yet both men facing off exuded an inexplicable fighting spirit.

Invisible Qi flowed around the two of them. Although they did not move, their Qi had already begun to fight each other.

Li couldn't bear to look at the crew-cut man in front of her in the dim moonlight.

His features were sharp and angular, and the scars, some deep and some shallow, were like medals branded on his face.

Her eyes, however, held a pure clarity like a spring, which seemed somewhat out of place on her face.

Ding Shian also sized up Li Buren in front of him.

His assessment and feelings were brief.

handsome.

He lowered his head, adjusted his stance, and then subconsciously looked up at Li Buren.

But this time, Li Buren's expression changed.

He was no longer the Taoist who treated cultivation like a leisurely stroll, coming and going freely between the world and the mortal realm.

Now, he is more like a pure seeker of the Tao.

And it seems that I am just an obstacle on the road the other side is building.

Li couldn't bear to speak, but Ding Shian clearly saw a message in the young Taoist's eyes.

"This is the time for spiritual practice."

boom!

Without any warning, as if they had planned it together, the two simultaneously activated the Qi that was swirling around them.

Countless energies collided in an instant, like two armies locked in battle.

The ground where the two were standing suddenly sank and shattered, and two sharp whooshing sounds broke the silence of the long night.

Ding Shian could only feel the wind from the palm blowing against his face.

Pain.

He could no longer see the young Taoist priest opposite him clearly.

His pure fighting instincts erupted from his countless life-or-death battles, from his decades of martial arts training, and from the most primal and pure bloodline.

The mountains, the grass and trees, the moonlight, even the sounds, and the figures in front of me.

Everything vanished, leaving only a hand hurtling towards him from afar.

All other thoughts vanished in that instant.

All the Qi in the body gathers in the fist, just like practicing a million times. Sink your waist, twist your body, and throw a punch.

boom.

...

"Damn, so many 'Ruhua' types are really troublesome!"

"My senior brother is also missing. I wonder if he also encountered a powerful enemy."

Wang Ye, who originally came to support the siege of Ma Xianhong, is now also caught in a fierce battle.

Jin Yong, with a massive number of Ru Hua's, surrounded Wang Ye, forcing Wang Ye to resort to a Qimen formation to deal with the situation.

Looking at Jin Yong, who was hiding in the distance and always kept a distance from Wang Ye.

Wang Ye cursed inwardly.

"This guy does seem to be a bit smarter than his stupid younger brother."

"So you actually guessed that my Qimen Dunjia divination chart has a fixed range, and therefore deliberately kept a distance to prevent me from using any tricks?"

Thinking of this, Wang scratched his head in frustration.

"Does Feng Hou Qi Men still have such limitations?"

"Or is there something wrong with my approach?"

Dealing with these cunning women within the Qimen formation was a piece of cake for Wang Ye.

But the real trouble lies outside the battle lines.

With a casual wave of his hand, he unleashed several wide-range spells, clearing away the surrounding beauties. Wang Ye and Jin Yong then gazed at each other from afar.

Jin Yong was initially taken aback by the power of Wang Ye's magic, but quickly recovered.

Using techniques like lightning and crimson flames also revealed the range of his magic to some extent.

In the distance, a guy disguised as a doll chuckled twice unconsciously.

"Now that we're surrounded, we should finally understand the true secrets of Feng Hou Qi Men."

"Not everyone is like that kid Li Buren, with an incredibly high level of ambition and talent."

"Sometimes I think, I really wonder if this road will ever end for him."

Zhou Sheng, disguised as Ru Hua, shuddered and shook his head, no longer thinking about Li Buren.

"Let that kid figure it out on his own. I'd rather focus on training Xiao Wang."

"This time, Ding Shian will have to fight him again."

Zhou Sheng glanced at Wang Ye, who was deep in thought, and sighed.

"Anyone who comes into contact with this Feng Hou Qi Men is likely to get lost. The downside of the outer center palace is that everyone has ambitions."

"Everyone will lose themselves in the pursuit of power. The world is so big, and even the most powerful Qimen Dunjia formation has areas it cannot cover."

"Wang Ye, by sheer luck, escaped unscathed due to his lazy nature."

"If I give him a hint later, he might understand the principle."

"The mountain is ten thousand feet high, but you can climb it in just one step."
