Although the six appeared respectful, a fleeting exchange of glances revealed a shared understanding. If Wen Lanfeng defeated Bi Changchun, all would be well; but if he lost, given that six top experts had gathered together and this matter concerned their honor and disgrace, today would be Wen Lanfeng's death day. A fierce battle was inevitable, and the Wen family would be completely wiped out of the Cultivation World.

All six remained in their previous positions, their gazes silently fixed on Wen Lanfeng, awaiting his reply...

Although Wen Lanfeng had been troubled by love for many years, he was no ordinary person, having survived to this day in the Cultivation World and possessing such a high level of cultivation. Sensing the strange shift in the atmosphere among them, his melancholy eyes deepened in an instant, his gaze sweeping coldly over the group before finally settling on the obsequious Yin Baikang. Yin Baikang, however, remained unmoved...

"Besides Bi Changchun, who dares to claim the Number One Expert Under Heaven?" Wen Lanfeng replied calmly. His long robe, which had been fluttering slightly in the wind, came to a complete stop, as if even the strongest wind could not make a sound.

A sudden gust of wind arose, causing the surrounding tree branches to sway violently. The group of people below, who had been struggling in the Cultivation World for many years, naturally noticed that something was amiss in the atmosphere above... The seven people's clothes were as heavy as a thousand pounds, unmoved by the wind, making them seem like stone sculptures floating in the air.

No one spoke; they all exchanged silent glances, preparing themselves to avoid being caught in the crossfire.

Yin Baikang asked with some surprise, "Could it be that Brother Wen did not fight Bi Changchun? Or did Brother Wen and Bi Changchun fight to a draw? Otherwise, given Bi Changchun's temper, he probably wouldn't be so easy to talk to! Would he allow Brother Wen to freely enter and leave the Demon Ghost Domain?"

"Bi Changchun's cultivation is unfathomable, and he has the ability to amaze heaven and earth. He is worlds apart from me. He broke my century of hard-earned cultivation in three moves and seriously injured me. It is only thanks to Nong Zhu's timely arrival that I am able to stand here and talk so confidently today." Wen Lanfeng slowly told the truth, without any intention of covering up his shame.

There's no need to hide anything. Even if he were to go into seclusion and cultivate for another hundred years, he still wouldn't be a match for Bi Changchun; the difference in skill level is simply too vast. His own cultivation is nothing but child's play compared to Bi Changchun's; it's utterly insignificant.

He had a vague idea of what the six were planning, but he still spoke the truth without fear. Because he was determined to fight them all today!

Wen Lanfeng also had his own pride. He accepted his defeat to Bi Changchun, but he also wanted to prove that his ranking as the second best in the world was not undeserved! He wanted to show her by severely defeating six experts at the late Spirit Transformation stage that although Wen Lanfeng was no match for Bi Changchun, he was not a coward either!

Furthermore, Wen Rui recounted to him the bitter history of the Wen family's descendants over the past century, a history marked by his defeat. During his hundred years of seclusion, the glory of the Wen family, once the foremost Lineage in the Cultivation World, had gradually faded. As the pillar of the Wen family, he had a responsibility to restore Lineage former glory!

At the same time, the promise made on Shuntian Island needs to be kept. If they want to support Yue Qianchou, they also need to demonstrate strength that can intimidate the world; otherwise, someone will always try to pull a fast one. For example, these six top experts in the Cultivation World right now!

That's why he, who was known for his good temper in the Cultivation World, is no longer docile and is about to prove his formidable strength to the entire Cultivation World!

Three moves! Everyone gasped in shock. Bi Changchun had actually defeated Wen Lanfeng in just three moves? That was simply unbelievable! However, no matter how much they doubted it, they believed that Wen Lanfeng had no reason to elevate Bi Changchun by belittling himself.

That man who made a fleeting appearance in the Cultivation World was terrifying every time he appeared, causing the entire Cultivation World to submit.

He wore a light blue robe and had a signature gaunt face, never smiling. Cold and indifferent, with icy and ruthless eyes, he was quick to kill, like a shadow hanging over everyone in the Cultivation World.

That name is like a towering monument, forever unsurpassable, inspiring fear and trepidation.

Now, hearing the news of Wen Lanfeng's defeat in three moves, everyone's emotions were indescribable. That person still lived up to his reputation as the number one expert in the Cultivation World! He was indeed an insurmountable existence...

The six men's expressions shifted between light and shadow, the news filling their mouths with bitterness, their saliva dry and unable to swallow. How vast was the difference between these two experts, late Spirit Transformation stage!

After a moment of distraction, Yin Baikang swallowed hard and silently transmitted his voice to the five people. "You were defeated by Bi Changchun in just three moves, yet you dare to challenge all six of us at the same time. You are underestimating us too much. Everyone! Now is the time to put aside our prejudices and cooperate. If you don't show some support now, you'll all have to keep a low profile from now on!"

That being said, who will start this fire? Yin Baikang is indeed flexible and adaptable, but it's impossible for him to take the lead.

"Brother Wen!" Bing Chengzi spoke first after a moment of silence, and all eyes were on him, waiting for him to continue. But he said instead, "Since we are not welcome, we will take our leave. There's no need to make things awkward for everyone."

It wasn't that he didn't want to join forces with everyone to eliminate this troublesome opponent, but Wen Lanfeng was not so easy to deal with. Even if they won, one or two of the six would probably be unlucky, and it was hard to say who they would be.

It wasn't that he was afraid of trouble, but rather that he didn't want to take the risk at the moment. The Demon Codex had finally found a suitable successor, and he needed to wholeheartedly support him. If something happened to him, his disciples, with their limited cultivation levels, would be utterly incapable of helping Yan Zhuixing establish himself in the Cultivation World.

In truth, among the top experts in the Cultivation World, besides Bi Changchun and Wen Lanfeng, even if his cultivation level is the highest, he doesn't care about being number one or number two. It's meaningless to him; even if he were number one, it wouldn't break the curse on him. To fulfill the mission passed down through generations, he doesn't want any conflict with either Bi Changchun or Wen Lanfeng unless absolutely necessary.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the other five people changed slightly. They hadn't expected that the one with the highest cultivation among the six would back down.

Unexpectedly, Wen Lanfeng's words granted the five people's wish. "Bing Chengzi, do you think this is a place where you can come and go as you please? It's not difficult to leave. My request is not excessive. Each of you loses a finger, and I will let the six of you leave."

A murmur rippled through the crowd. Wen Lanfeng was arrogant enough; if this demand wasn't excessive, then what would be? Hu Changshou sneered, "Brother Bing, you've given in, but others aren't giving you the time of day!" The other four exchanged glances, their gazes hardening.

Bing Chengzi narrowed his eyes and said, "Wen Lanfeng, why be so aggressive? Do you really think the six of us are afraid of you?"

Suddenly, a powerful aura erupted from Wen Lanfeng, unleashing countless almost tangible wind blades that surged towards the six like a storm. Wen Lanfeng's actions showed them that this battle was unavoidable.

A broadsword, gleaming with silver light, suddenly appeared. Wen Lanfeng loosened his arms, which he had been holding to his chest, and the world-famous 'Giant Silver' sword fell into his hands...

As the six quickly dodged, a wall of shimmering light appeared in front of them, clattering and blocking the wind blades. The group below scattered hastily, fearing being caught in the blast...

Above the distant woods, Wen Rui's heart was in his throat. His ancestor was fighting six late Spirit Transformation stage experts by himself; how could he not be worried?

Man Hu, Yan Zhuixing, and the others were also heading in this direction when they suddenly noticed a group of people appearing in the air ahead with their backs to them. Their intrusion only elicited a fleeting glance from these people; a few Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivators were not worth their attention.

In the air ahead, the powerful aura emanating from the seven people was swirling wildly, the wind howling, and the intense killing intent soaring into the sky made it difficult for them to breathe, so they quickly stopped.

Witnessing the scene of six trapped in one, Man Hu was shocked. His master was among them. He bowed to the person beside him and asked, "Senior Mu, what is going on?"

The other disciples were also shocked. How could this be? Judging from the situation, their master seemed to be dealing with one person along with the other five. Yan Zhuixing was equally shocked. In his understanding, a master at the late Spirit Transformation stage was already powerful enough. The cultivation level of someone who even a master at the late Spirit Transformation stage had to join forces to deal with must be unimaginable.

The distance was too great, and with his cultivation level, he couldn't see clearly. So, when no one was paying attention to him, he narrowed his eyes to almost slits, with a faint red light flickering within them, and immediately saw the situation there clearly.

The person being questioned was Mu Sang from the Wuyan Kingdom. He was there on behalf of Huo Zongming and the others to gather information. Upon hearing this, he sneered, "What's going on? Your master and six other experts at the late Spirit Transformation stage are going to join forces to fight Wen Lanfeng. What do you think is going on?" It was unclear which side he was mocking for overestimating their abilities.

"Ah..." The four members of the Man Hu family were shocked and speechless. In this situation, there was no room for them to interfere. They couldn't even help their master. They could only stare blankly and wait for the result!

That person was Wen Lanfeng, the second-ranked expert in the world? He actually fought six late Spirit Transformation stage experts all by himself? Yan Zhuixing clenched his fists slightly, feeling his demonic blood being stimulated and instantly boiling, a strong desire to fight surge within him. He desperately suppressed it.

He himself didn't know what was going on, but ever since he started practicing the Demon Codex, it seemed that a seed of war had been planted in his body, gradually sprouting and growing...

"He asked for it, don't be polite with him!" Pei Fang roared. A dazzling blue blade appeared in his hand. No explanation was needed; at this point, there was no point in being polite with the six of them. Between them and Wen Lanfeng, it was either you die or I live.

Spiritual treasure-level weapons appeared in their hands one after another, and for a moment, the dense killing intent actually formed a faint gray mist among the seven people...
