Just then, Zhao Erhu, dressed in black, silently emerged from the shadows of the woods.

"Qin Feng".

His tone was filled with doubt and uncertainty.

A new habitat?!

It's only been a few days?

Six days ago, when this kid was being ridiculed by everyone in the testing hall, he was only at the fourth level of Body Forging!

Even for those legendary holy-grade spiritual roots, it would take at least a month to break through from the fourth level of Body Forging to the New Life Realm, even with a massive amount of resources.

Did this kid grow up eating elixirs of immortality?!

"I don't know what kind of evil magic you used."

Suppressing his shock, Zhao Erhu gave a cold laugh, his muscles tensing and crackling.

"But don't think that fast cultivation speed makes you invincible!"

"Dare to oppose us? You'll only face death!"

Qin Feng turned around, his expression calm.

He uttered two words calmly:

"Noisy."

"You should lie down too."

"Arrogant!!"

Zhao Erhu laughed in fury, his eyes flashing with a fierce light:

"How dare you, a mere third-level cultivator of the Rebirth Realm, oppose me, an eighth-level cultivator of the Rebirth Realm?!"

"Today I will show you that the difference between each level of the New Realm is like a chasm!"

"Bull-like strength!!"

boom!

Zhao Erhu roared, and the ground beneath his feet suddenly cracked open!

He transformed into a raging, savage beast, unleashing a terrifying, suffocating aura as he punched Qin Feng in the face!

This punch was so powerful and heavy that it created a piercing explosion in the air!

"Well done!"

Qin Feng's eyes narrowed, and he dared not be careless.

After all, there was a full five minor realms between the two!

Even with dual-elemental sacred spiritual roots as a foundation and abnormal spiritual power fused from three major cultivation techniques, he would be seriously injured if he were not careful when facing a true master like this!

Om-!

Inside the dantian, the colorless energy ball began to spin wildly!

The three distinct spiritual energies of water, fire, and wood instantly merged, transforming into a raging torrent of blue, green, and red colors that instantly poured into the entire body!

"break!!"

Qin Feng shouted loudly, clenched his right fist, and without dodging or avoiding, slammed it into Zhao Erhu's fist!

boom--! ! !

Two fists collided!

A deafening roar, like a thunderclap rising from the ground!

A terrifying shockwave emanated from the two of them, exploding wildly in all directions and kicking up clouds of dust!

"Wh...what?!"

Zhao Erhu felt an overwhelming, terrifying force surge into his body through his arm!

That power was domineering, scorching, and tenacious, instantly and irresistibly shattering his protective spiritual energy!

"puff--!"

Zhao Erhu coughed up blood and his burly body flew backward like a tattered sack!

Click!Click!

He crashed into two large trees, each as thick as a bowl, and finally slammed heavily to the ground. His chest was caved in, and several of his ribs were broken. He lost consciousness on the spot!

The smoke and dust cleared.

Qin Feng stood still, motionless.

He looked at his unharmed fist, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"I haven't even used my full strength yet..."

"You collapsed?"

This battle made him fully realize just how terrifying his current combat power truly was!

With dual-elemental sacred spiritual roots, plus the support of the Earth-rank cultivation technique brought by the divine brush, he is simply invincible among his peers!

"A divine brush... truly defying the heavens!"

Qin Feng didn't glance at the group of crippled people on the ground again. He turned around and walked back to Tian Shu Peak step by step.

……

On the mountain, in front of the main hall.

More than twenty disciples were waiting anxiously.

Everyone was stunned when they saw Qin Feng walk back unharmed and throw several bulging storage bags on the ground.

"What... what is this?"

Lu Qianlang opened a bag with trembling hands; it was full of spirit stones and pills!

"This is the interest we got back from them."

Qin Feng said calmly:

"Distribute these to the injured disciples to treat their wounds."

"Peak Master..."

The disciples were shocked by what they saw, and were moved to tears.

In the past, when they were on other peaks, they could only swallow their anger when they were bullied. Who would stand up for them?

But now, the peak master not only went down the mountain alone and beat up the people, but also brought back the spoils to share with everyone!

This unprecedented sense of belonging completely united the hearts of these teenagers!

"Peak Master is mighty!!"

"I swear to follow the Peak Master to the death!!"

Qin Feng waved his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet:

"Don't go down the mountain these next few days; focus on your cultivation."

"I'll go and get justice for you...!"

……

The Lin family's main hall.

"Snapped!"

Lin Zhengnan slammed the teacup in his hand to the ground, shards flying everywhere.

"What did you say?!"

"Zhao Erhu lost?! And he was seriously injured by a single punch?!"

"How is this possible?!"

Lin Zhengnan stared wide-eyed at the disciple who had come to deliver the message, as if he were looking at a madman.

Wang Tianyi, who was sitting next to him, was so shocked that he stood up abruptly, his old face turning deathly pale.

"New Realm, Level Three..."

"Six days... He only took six days to break through from the fourth level of Body Forging to the third level of the Rebirth Realm?!"

"This cultivation speed... even the founding patriarch wouldn't have been this outrageous!"

"Unprecedented! Unparalleled!"

Wang Tianyi's voice was trembling, and his eyes showed not only shock but also deep fear.

He knew Zhao Erhu's strength all too well!

The eighth level of the new realm!

That's a real tough nut to crack!

Even if his cultivation speed is fast, what makes Qin Feng think he can kill him by crossing five minor realms?!

In a daze, Wang Tianyi seemed to see Qin Xiaotian, who was full of vigor and dominated his generation decades ago, standing right in front of him again!

"No...we absolutely cannot let him live!"

Wang Tianyi clenched his fist tightly, his nails digging deep into his flesh:

"If this child is not eliminated, both our families... will surely face annihilation!!"

Lin Yuyan, standing to the side, stared blankly into space.

"He... he's become this strong?"

That good-for-nothing son-in-law she once regarded as worthless, someone she wouldn't even deign to look at...

How did he become a genius who could even defeat Zhao Erhu in an instant?

"Could it be... that I made the wrong choice back then...?"

Lin Yuyan murmured to herself, a feeling of "regret" welling up in her heart for the first time.
