Excessive ferocity due to caution

Xu Changsheng vaguely remembered that in the Canghai Stone Forest, his teacher was beaten to death by Ren Wudi and thrown into the sea to feed the fish in order to protect the mystery of Yin and Yang.

He would never forget the look of despair in Yan's eyes when he fell into the sea!

More than forty years.

Xu Changsheng spent forty years mastering the Yin-Yang techniques he learned from his master, and made his own improvements and innovations based on them.

I had planned to wait until he had perfected the affairs of the sect before going to Yinxia Mountain to find Ren Wudi for a final battle.

I never expected that Ren Wudi would actually show up on his own today!

Since that's the case, let's settle this blood feud today!

Xu Changsheng flipped his left hand, and the Yin and Yang energies of heaven and earth gave birth to black and white fish, and the profound laws of heaven and earth were revealed in the Yin and Yang fish!

The wind has ceased!

Yin-Yang Technique - Swift Wind Slash!

As Xu Changsheng unleashed his profound technique, the wind howled like a tiger in an instant, and the air flowed extremely fast. Some invisible winds condensed into hundreds of swords, spears, and halberds, which rushed towards Ren Wudi!

These weapons, formed from condensed air, are extremely fast and colorless, making them impossible to defend against!

Ren Wudi did not dodge. He condensed his protective qi, and a dark red shield appeared beside him, appearing and disappearing, easily blocking the hundreds of qi soldiers!

"The tricks used to fool people in the martial arts world are used to fight enemies; it's really childish."

"Without true power cultivated by oneself, how could one achieve the feat of splitting the heavens and destroying cities?"

"Can you withstand my Primordial Qi Sword?"

Ren Wudi finished speaking coldly, then condensed his energy into a sword and pointed out with one finger!

Hundreds of blood-red demonic swords surged from within his robe, first drinking from the dragon's ascent to the sky, then using starlight as a bridge, descending from the heavens to attack Xu Changsheng!

Have you not seen the Yellow River's waters come down from the sky?

This single gesture of pointing the sword across the river left almost everyone present dumbfounded!

Ren Wudi's invincible qi weapon is not formed from the qi of heaven and earth, but from the true qi cultivated in his own qi sea!

Ordinary martial artists' Qi Sea is like a small, cold pool, no more than thirteen feet deep, and can only store limited true power.

Of these, 99% of the martial artists couldn't even fill the small, cold pool in their Qi Sea.

People like Ren Wudi, who dare to use their qi to form a river, are almost unheard of throughout history!

For at least several thousand years, from the Great Zhou Dynasty to the present... there has been no other like it!

Only Ren Wudi is invincible!

Upon seeing the Sword River, Xu Changsheng was covered in sweat, his eyes wide open.

Is this something a human could do?!

"As expected of the unparalleled Ren Wudi!"

"With this single gesture of pointing the sword across the river, one can witness the pinnacle of martial arts!"

"I fear that in this world... there is no one left who can rival Ren Wudi!"

Those watching from afar were deeply moved.

"That's not necessarily true... Among the various schools of thought, there are many reclusive masters, especially those with profound lineages. Perhaps they are just too lazy to come out into the world."

Do you even believe that yourself?

"I……"

"Perhaps Fan Qingxue could put up a fight?"

"Fan Qingxue... certainly possesses unparalleled talent, but he lost because he was too young..."

"If he had been born ten years earlier, he might have become Ren Wudi's lifelong nemesis."

As everyone chatted, the battle on the field entered a crucial moment!

Xu Changsheng had studied Yin-Yang techniques for decades and was by no means an ordinary person. Faced with Ren Wudi's invincible finger strike, he activated the pure and turbid energies in his body, made hand seals, and the black and white fish swam together, completely merging into a Tai Chi disc. He raised it above his head, and the Tai Chi disc continued to grow larger, actually blocking the Sword River!

Countless blood-red demonic swords were swallowed into the Tai Chi disc and disappeared!

This Tai Chi disc continuously erodes Ren Wudi's true power, transforming it into the pure and turbid energy of heaven and earth, dissipating into nothingness!

But after the two had been locked in combat for a while, Ren Wudi's sword river not only did not dry up, but became more and more turbulent, and Xu Changsheng, who was struggling to hold on, had beads of sweat on his forehead!

The Tai Chi diagram also began to gradually disintegrate because it had absorbed too many sword rivers!

Everyone could see that if this stalemate continued, Xu Changsheng would surely die!

"Siming, I'm here to help you!"

A disciple of the Yin-Yang School stepped forward, channeled his Yin-Yang energy, and poured it into Xu Changsheng's body!

Immediately afterwards, other disciples from the Yin-Yang School followed suit!

Soon, Xu Changsheng's strength was replenished.

The Tai Chi diagram, which was on the verge of collapse, has now returned to its original form!

But Xu Changsheng knew that even with these dozen or so disciples, they were no match for Ren Wudi!

We can't outlast them!

He must take the initiative!

Xu Changsheng made a hand seal with one hand, pointed a finger to the sky, bit his tongue until it bled, and shouted:

"Hiss becomes clouds and rain, his laughter becomes thunder!"

"Reaching the heavens and penetrating the earth, emerging from the darkness and entering the light!"

"Yin Yang - Divine Thunder!"

This lightning-summoning technique is extremely deadly. It is a secret technique passed down from the split Taoist sects and is listed as one of the forbidden techniques by the Yin-Yang School!

The main reason is that every time this technique is used, it shortens one's lifespan!

Thunder belongs to the power of heaven and earth; mortals should not use it lightly!

At this moment, Xu Changsheng clearly saw just how terrifying Ren Wudi's strength was...

He is no longer the invincible Ren Wudi he was more than forty years ago!

Ren Wudi's cultivation level is now unparalleled, and he is no longer a martial artist of this world. There is no way he can defeat Ren Wudi!

In that case... it would be better to perish together with Ren Wudi!

This divine lightning bolt consumed all of his true essence and lifespan, in an effort to exchange one for one with Ren Wudi!

Boom!

The sky trembled, and a thunderclap suddenly resounded in the previously cloudless sky!

Ren Wudi looked up.

In the bright night sky, purple lightning flashed and blue light condensed!

A terrifying pressure gathered, and everyone on the star-gazing platform took another twenty steps back, fearing they would be affected!

"Save me!"

Ren Wudi was fearless, and smiled at the sky.

boom!

As a bolt of lightning struck, the divine power contained within it slammed down on Ren Wudi!

A violent explosion rang out where Ren Wudi was, and at the same time, Xu Changsheng, who had cast the lightning spell, collapsed to the ground, his eyes rolled back, and his life candle was about to go out...

The other disciples stepped forward to help Xu Changsheng up and burst into tears.

"Elder..."

Before their cries had even subsided, a powerful voice rang out from the lingering dust in the distance:

"Not bad...not bad!"

"Xu Changsheng, you are stronger than your master!"

"This lightning spell is comparable to Fan Qingxue's sword strike from the west!"

He strode out.

His body was almost completely unharmed.

Only his forehead was injured.

There was a little bleeding.

His eyes flashed with a sharp light, which frightened tens of thousands of spectators into retreating!

They're not dead?!

Or perhaps it was just a minor injury that wasn't even considered serious?

and also……

He said Fan Qingxue's sword came from the west... Doesn't that mean the two of them have already fought?

Now that Ren Wudi is alive, what about Fan Qingxue...?

Upon hearing Ren Wudi's words, Su Xingcan immediately disregarded the people below the Star Gazing Tower who were trying to stop him, and stepped forward with glaring eyes, saying:

"You killed him?!"

Ren Wudi slowly turned his head, using the faint starlight to examine Su Xingcan, and suddenly smiled:

"I broke his sword, but I did not kill him."

Su Xingcan let out a long sigh of relief upon hearing this.

"But tonight... I will kill you."

Su Xingcan tensed up upon hearing this, and he forced a smile:

"I'm just a nobody in the martial arts world, with only rudimentary skills. I'm neither worthy to be your opponent nor have I ever had any grudge against you... Why would you kill me, sir?"

Ren Wudi said calmly:

"Ren has never done any good deeds in his life; he only loves killing and arson..."

"But I just don't like owing people favors."

"But what a coincidence is... I do owe the King of Qi a favor."

Su Xingcan's pupils contracted.

Ren Wudi raised his hand.

He bestowed upon Su Xingcan a finger.

Clang!

The sound of metal swords clanging rang out.

A clash of murderous intent!

Su Xingcan, caught between murderous intent, stood frozen in place, her hair standing on end.

After a long while, he touched himself.

In good condition.

Am I... alright?

He looked up in disbelief, only to see that Ren Wudi had already set his sights on someone else.

Someone he had only recently met.

P.S.: Get out of the way!

I'm about to show off! (Screams like a baboon and slams its fist on the table!)
