One person: Senior Brother Zhang Zhiwei, who has mastered the Golden Light Mantra to its fullest lev

Upon seeing this, Zhang Yunyuan's eyes also flashed with boundless killing intent.

Meanwhile, Lu Zhong, who had been unable to break through the defenses for a long time, completely lost his patience.

Seeing that Zhang Yunyuan was only defending and not attacking, he assumed that Zhang was afraid and a sinister smile appeared on his face.

"Hey kid, come here!"

He exchanged glances with the other guards, and at the same time, he swung out several jet-black chains, like several venomous snakes flicking their tongues, from all directions, towards Zhang Yunyuan and Feng Baobao!

This is the "Dragon-Binding Rope," forged by the Lü family at great expense using special techniques.

It is coated with a special medicine to suppress Qi. Once trapped, no matter how high your Qi level is, your meridians will be locked, and you will be unable to exert any of your cultivation, leaving you at the mercy of others.

The chains were about to reach him.

Just as the chains were about to touch Zhang Yunyuan and Feng Baobao's bodies.

An invisible wave, centered on his body, suddenly spread outwards!

It was as if countless tiny arcs of electricity were jumping in the air, emitting a tooth-grinding, fine "sizzling" sound. The surrounding dust moved without wind, and even the light was distorted for a moment!

It was a wisp of white lightning compressed to its extreme, condensed to the point of being almost tangible!

A deafening, muffled sound, as if divine thunder from the heavens had been forcibly crammed into a small space and detonated, was heard!

The next moment, a terrifying scene unfolded!

The expressions on the faces of the Lü family guards, who had been grinning maliciously, froze instantly, turning into extreme terror and bewilderment. Their pupils lost all their luster in an instant.

The dragon-binding ropes in their hands, along with their bodies, seemed to have been struck head-on by an invisible giant hammer forged from lightning!

It flew straight backward for more than ten meters before crashing heavily to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust!

When they landed, they were completely silent. Black blood, scalded by the high temperature, flowed from their seven orifices, and wisps of smoke rose from their bodies.

His dantian was completely shattered, his meridians were severed, and his internal organs were all turned into a pulp by the violent lightning force, leaving him with no vitality!

Lu Zhong stood to the side, dumbfounded, a surge of heat flowing through his legs.

The entire venue fell into a deathly silence.

Lu Ci, who was fiercely attacking Tian Jinzhong, suddenly froze.

He slowly and stiffly turned his head to look at the several clansmen lying on the ground, lifeless, and then at the boy who was still standing there, not even moving a muscle.

His pupils suddenly shrank to the size of pinpoints.

After a brief silence came a raging inferno, powerful enough to set the entire forest ablaze.

"My people!"

Lu Ci let out a roar, his already fierce face contorted wildly with muscles, and his eyes were instantly filled with endless rage and resentment, turning blood red.

At this moment, all the old and new grudges surged into my heart!

Twenty years ago, at the Lü family's birthday banquet, Zhang Yunyuan crippled his uncle Lü Yan with a single palm strike, causing the Lü family to lose face and become a laughing stock in the entire world of supernatural beings!

Twenty years later, he once again killed several elite members of the Lü family in one move, including his most favored son, Lü Zhong!

"Zhang Yunyuan!"

Lu Ci stared intently at him, each word seemingly squeezed out from between his teeth, carrying a chilling coldness and a murderous intent that penetrated to the bone.

"Today, I will kill you!"

Chapter 105 teaches you what Ruyi Jin (如意劲) is.

Zhang Yunyuan sneered: "You think you can take me on?"

Before the words were even finished, the two had already exchanged a palm strike.

There was no earth-shattering roar, only a dull hum like an ancient bell being struck.

An invisible wave of energy exploded outwards from the two of them, instantly sending sand and stones flying, snapping trees on both sides of the mountain path in half, and sending gravel and grass flying everywhere.

The aftershock was so terrifying that Tian Jinzhong, who was already seriously injured, groaned, his vision went black, and he was knocked unconscious on the spot.

Even Lü Zhong, who was terrified and collapsed to the ground not far away, was not spared; his head lolled to the side and he fainted.

Amidst the smoke and dust, only Feng Baobao remained squatting in the same spot, a piece of dried sweet potato now in her hand, which she nibbled on in small bites, as if the devastating attack just moments before was nothing more than a passing breeze.

She raised her head, her clear eyes looking at the two combatants, seemingly curious, yet also seemingly not understanding anything.

In the arena, Lü Ci staggered back three steps, each step leaving a deep footprint on the hard rocky ground.

He felt a powerful yet perfectly harmonious energy surge into his body through his arm, grinding against his meridians like a millstone, making his throat taste sweet and almost causing him to spit out blood on the spot.

He forcibly suppressed his surging blood and qi, raised his head, and looked at the unprecedented horror in his eyes.

The boy who had seemed so weak and about to collapse just moments before now stood there, emanating no astonishing aura, yet he gave the reader a terrifying pressure akin to facing a prehistoric beast.

Deep within those calm eyes lurked a malevolent god, looking down upon all living beings with indifference as he watched this ignorant ant.

This pressure was even more intense and suffocating than when he faced his own father or even the old Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain!

"Lu Ci, twenty years have passed, and your Ruyi Jin has only improved by so little."

Zhang Yunyuan dusted off non-existent dust from his Taoist robe, his tone as calm as if he were catching up with an old friend.

But these plain words sounded more jarring to Lü Ci than any insult.

"You...when did you become so terrifying?!"

Lu Ci's voice was hoarse. He couldn't believe that the young man in front of him was Zhang Yunyuan from twenty years ago.

Zhang Yunyuan sneered, slowly raised his hand, his five fingers slightly spread, "Today, Grandpa will teach you what the real Ruyi Jin is!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he moved.

Unlike Lü Ci's fierce and relentless attacks, his movements were even somewhat free and unrestrained, as if he were not fighting a life-or-death battle, but rather practicing a set of boxing techniques that he knew by heart.

Lu Ci roared, suppressing the fear in his heart, and pushed his cultivation to its limit.

He cannot back down; the dignity of the Lü family and his personal pride will not allow him to retreat!

"A frenzied dance!"

He waved his arms, and dozens of cunning and ruthless Ruyi energy vortexes, like living venomous snakes, blocked all of Zhang Yunyuan's escape routes from all directions, and frantically bit him!

Each vortex contained the power to shatter gold and split rocks, enough to tear a top-tier expert to shreds in an instant.

However, faced with this overwhelming onslaught, Zhang Yunyuan neither dodged nor evaded, letting the vortexes hit him.

A strange scene happened.

When Lü Ci's Ruyi Force, powerful enough to split stone tablets, came into contact with the thin, almost invisible layer of Hunyuan Dao Qi on Zhang Yunyuan's body, it was like a mud ox entering the sea, failing to even stir up a ripple.

That spiraling, piercing, and tearing force was forcibly decomposed, assimilated, and vanished into nothingness the instant it touched a more primal and domineering force.

"What...what kind of sorcery is this?!"

Lu Ci's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. His lifelong pride in the Ruyi Jin technique had been so easily neutralized, completely overturning his understanding of the world.

"Watch closely, this is how you use 'jin' (劲, strength)."

Zhang Yunyuan's voice rang in his ears, like the whisper of death.

He struck out with his palm in the backhand.

On his palm was a force that was all too familiar to Lü Ci, yet so powerful that it felt completely foreign to him.

The same spiral, the same piercing, the same domineering, but in terms of the refinement of the force and the subtlety of the changes, it far exceeded his comprehension!

Use your tricks to slap yourself in the face!

Lu Ci was terrified. He tried to dodge, but Zhang Yunyuan's palm seemed to lock onto his vital energy. No matter how he dodged, he felt that he would be hit head-on.

Left with no other choice, he could only cross his arms in front of his chest, muster all his strength, and take the blow head-on.

With a deafening crash, Lü Ci was struck as if by lightning. The bones in his arms cracked instantly with a sickening "crack" sound.

A force ten times more violent than his own Ruyi Jin tore through his protective Qi, slamming into his internal organs.

"puff--!"

A mouthful of blood mixed with fragments of internal organs gushed out of Lü Ci's mouth, tracing a gruesome arc in the air.

His body flew backward like a tattered sack, crashing into three or four large trees before falling heavily to the ground, convulsing all over, unable to get up again.

He lay on the ground, his eyes wide open, staring intently at the boy who was walking slowly towards him. His eyes were no longer filled with anger and resentment, but were completely filled with an emotion called "fear".

The defeat was so decisive, so thorough, so... humiliating.

His family's secret skills, which he was so proud of, seemed like a joke in front of the other party.

The opponent could even use the same move with a hundred times greater power without hesitation.

This is no longer a difference in strength; it's a crushing defeat on a dimensional level.

Zhang Yunyuan walked up to him, looking down at him with a calm expression.

"Was Duanmu Ying kidnapped by your Lü family?"

His voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable authority.

Lu Ci's teeth trembled, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "If you have the guts, then kill me!"

Zhang Yunyuan sneered, pressing two fingers like swords against Lü Ci's forehead.

Lightning crackled at his fingertips, emanating an extremely terrifying aura.

"You think I don't dare?!"

Zhang Yunyuan was filled with murderous intent. Just as lightning erupted from his fingertips, a tremendous force appeared out of nowhere and forcefully pushed him away.

Several auras even more terrifying than Lü Ci's appeared!

The newcomer had white hair and a deeply lined face; he was none other than Lü Shou, the head of the Lü family!

Lu Shou, who was at the very bottom of the hierarchy, and several other elders of the Lu family who were also at the pinnacle of heroes.

"Junior Nephew Yunyuan, it's been a long time."

Lu Shou's gaze swept around and finally settled on Zhang Yunyuan.

Seeing Zhang Yunyuan's unchanging appearance over the years, a hint of envy appeared in his eyes.
