Continuation

Ouyang Feng practiced the Nine Yin Manual in reverse, causing his acupoints to invert and shift position throughout his body.

Huang Rong confidently pressed Ouyang Feng's acupoints, but it was completely useless. After a brief paralysis, he recovered.

Then, he seized the opportunity to strike Huang Rong with a palm.

Facing this palm strike, Huang Rong naturally couldn't dodge. Her mind raced through the joys and regrets of her life...

Suddenly, Ouyang Feng sensed a sound of air being broken, approaching him.

His eyes swept towards the source of the sound, and his heart leaped in alarm. He quickly stopped his attack and retreated several meters.

It turned out to be Huang Yaoshi, who was watching from afar. Seeing his daughter enter the fray, although he disdained ganging up on others, his daughter's safety was paramount.

So, he slowly approached the battlefield. In a duel between masters, his daughter's strength would mean she could be vaporized with a single misstep.

As expected, the battle had barely begun when danger appeared.

There was no other way; his daughter was in danger, and a father had to save her.

Huang Yaoshi threw his iron flute from a distance, aiming directly for Ouyang Feng's temple. He felt that if this strike landed, brains would be splattered everywhere.

Then, he quickly approached his daughter, scooped her up with one arm, and seeing she was unharmed, used his internal energy to push her towards Wang Ming. Wang Ming was, in a way, Huang Rong's half-master, so she would be safer there.

Ouyang Feng broke out in a cold sweat from Huang Yaoshi's sudden attack. Fortunately, he had dodged quickly, or he would have been finished.

Ouyang Feng angrily said, "Huang the Old Heretic, aren't you always proud and disdainful of taking advantage of others and ganging up on them?"

Huang Yaoshi replied with equal hostility, "You were trying to take my daughter's life, what more is there to say?"

With that, he lunged forward and engaged Ouyang Feng in combat.

Huang Yaoshi knew that his daughter had already clashed with Ouyang Feng. If he didn't deal with the Western Venom today, his daughter would likely never have a peaceful life. Thus, he had no choice but to step in and fight Ouyang Feng.

Huang the Old Heretic's true qi had only recovered to sixty percent. Initially, his attention had been drawn to Hong Qi's Dog Beating Staff Technique, and then to the shifting dynamics of the battle. This caused him to slow his recovery.

Huang Yaoshi was already no match for the greatly improved Ouyang Feng, and with only sixty percent of his internal energy, his strength was greatly diminished.

Fortunately, Ouyang Feng wasn't much better off, also suffering from immense exhaustion. The two were pretty evenly matched.

After fighting for over twenty rounds, Huang Yaoshi began to show signs of fatigue. Anyone with keen eyes could see he was about to lose.

Huang Rong had also recovered from her earlier fright and felt a lingering sense of dread. Fortunately, her father had rescued her in time.

When she came to her senses, her impression of the Western Venom, Ouyang Feng, plummeted further.

She stood up indignantly and shouted to those on the field, "To deal with this treacherous Ouyang Feng, we don't need to follow the rules of the martial world. Attack him together!"

Upon hearing this, Hong Qigong and Guo Jing no longer stood by and joined the battle once more.

As master and disciple, Hong Qigong and Guo Jing were familiar with each other's fighting styles and cooperated with remarkable understanding. They pinned Ouyang Feng down from the front.

Huang Yaoshi, meanwhile, provided remote support from the sidelines using his Finger Flicking Divine Skill.

Ouyang Feng was in agony. The coordinated assault from the Hong-Guo master-disciple pair, coupled with the nuisance of Huang Yaoshi, He was now unable to attend to both sides at once. He could barely fend off the two of them with his full attention, but the Eastern Heretic was still a threat from afar.

This left Ouyang Feng in a state of utter panic, unable to relax for even a moment. Any slight lapse in attention would result in an attack landing on him.

After ten more rounds of struggling, he gradually began to feel the strain, becoming increasingly overwhelmed.

Suddenly, Guo Jing and Hong Qi seized an opportunity, and with a move called "Dragon Ascending to Heaven," they successfully trapped Ouyang Feng. Since the encirclement began, their bodies had not touched, and they had dodged attacks by changing direction as they approached. This was why Ouyang Feng had managed to hold on for so long.

But just now, they had closed the distance and exchanged several palms. He immediately had a bad feeling about it.

As expected, several Finger Flicking Divine Skill projectiles flew towards him. Ouyang Feng narrowly dodged these energy attacks.

Just as he turned to escape the battle, He was struck by a palm from Guo Jing on his chest and another from Hong Qigong on his back. At this point, despair began to set in Ouyang Feng's eyes, as he knew there was no way he could escape this predicament.

Huang Yaoshi was no fool and seized the opportunity, using his jade flute to strike Ouyang Feng's head.

"Thump."

A dull sound echoed.

Li Mochou, watching from afar, was startled. She felt that with that blow, Ouyang Feng was surely dead.

The methods used by righteous figures to punish evil surprised Li Mochou. She had seen many group attacks before, but they were always against petty villains, so she hadn't felt anything.

Today, she saw the dignified Northern Beggar Hong Qigong and the Eastern Heretic Huang Yaoshi, disregarding their reputations, attack one person. They were shameless.

She couldn't help but feel fortunate that she had reformed, avoiding such treatment.

She certainly didn't believe she was as powerful as the Western Venom.

Just as everyone thought the matter was settled, Suddenly, Ouyang Feng, who had closed his eyes as if awaiting death, opened them. A powerful surge of energy erupted from his body, repelling the three of them seven to eight meters.

Ouyang Feng propped himself up with his hands, his feet in the air, muttering something unintelligible.

Hong Qigong looked at Ouyang Feng's strange movements with some confusion. However, confident in their numbers, he stepped forward to test him, only to be sent flying back by three palm strikes from Ouyang Feng, delivered from bottom to top.

After receiving these three palms, he felt a surge of qi and blood. He couldn't help but think, "What is going on with this Old Poison? His power has suddenly surpassed ours by so much?"

Huang Yaoshi also went to test him, with the same result.

The three looked at each other, not understanding what was happening. So, the three joined forces and exchanged a few moves with Ouyang Feng.

Guo Jing was the first to be beaten out. He spat out some blood, but his injuries weren't severe.

Before long, Hong Qi and Huang Yaoshi were also forced back, both with bloodstains clearly visible at the corners of their mouths.

"Brother Ouyang, I, your old beggar, admit defeat. The title of The First Under Heaven is yours." Hong Qi's attempts to probe Ouyang Feng had given him the same feeling as Wang Chongyang back then. He knew he couldn't possibly contend with Ouyang Feng at this moment, so he promptly conceded.

Huang Yaoshi also wore a cold expression.

It turned out that while fighting the three, Ouyang Feng's powers had become somewhat unruly. He was practicing the Nine Yin Manual in reverse and was on the verge of a qi deviation. As a result, each of the three landed a strike on him, which had just opened the last three blockages in his body, successfully allowing Ouyang Feng to break through.

Ouyang Feng had become another Innate Master, following in Wang Chongyang's footsteps.

The gap between an Innate Master and Peak Acquired Masters like Hong Qi was narrow, but the difference was significant.

For Acquired Masters, their internal energy was derived from the energy converted from the food consumed by the human body.

Innate Masters, while still needing to eat and obtaining most of their internal energy from food, could also absorb some of the Qi of Heaven and Earth.

Innate Masters opened the Heaven and Earth bridge within the human body, allowing their bodies to draw the natural Qi of Heaven and Earth into themselves.
