Innate Dao Body vs. Demonic True Body (Part One)

Zi Xiang, Niu Geng, Su Huayu, and Mo Wuyan, working together, possess extraordinary strength. However, the strength of the Mysterious Expert in the Alley is even more terrifying.

Su Huayu and Mo Wuyan were the main attackers, Niu Geng's Hidden Weapons served as auxiliary attacks, and Zi Xiang launched surprise attacks. The battle arrangement was quite reasonable, but unfortunately, in the face of absolute strength, these so-called tactics were all so pale and powerless.

Su Huayu and Mo Wuyan, both at the Innate Realm, launched a joint attack, their Sword Qi and Blade Qi flying out. Unfortunately, the Mysterious Expert flicked his finger, and his finger strikes easily shattered their attacks.

As for Niu Geng's Poison Tempering Hidden Weapons, although the technique was exquisite, he could not break through the Protective Qi Barrier of Cultivator in the Return to Simplicity Realm. One after another, the Hidden Weapons that were launched unexpectedly were blocked by the opponent's Protective Qi Barrier.

"Shattered Fang!" Like Ghost, Zi Xiang appeared behind the Mysterious Man. Taking advantage of the man's attention being drawn to the two hidden arrows that Niu Geng was aiming at his eyes, she stabbed her Dagger fiercely into the man's back.

"Get lost!" The Mysterious Man seemed particularly disgusted by Zi Xiang's ghostly aura. With a flick of his finger, sharp finger strikes shot out, not only shattering Zi Xiang's attack but also leaving seven or eight bloody holes in her body amidst Zi Xiang.

"I told you, if I make a move, I won't let you die a quick death," the Mysterious Man's voice, as unpleasant as an owl's, sent a chill down the spine. He treated Niu Geng and the others as mere toys to be tortured to death. With his overwhelming strength, Niu Geng and the others could only be slowly tortured to their deaths in his hands.

"Don't give up, hold on, Zhuge Xiang and the others will be back soon," Mo Wuyan, despite having seven or eight wounds on his body. He kept encouraging Niu Geng and the others, believing that only by holding onto this belief could they persevere in the face of such despairing strength.

"Are you waiting for your companions? That's impossible. The person who intercepted your companions is the strongest Sword Cultivator below the Deity Transformation stage in the entire Yanling Commandery. Your companions are probably already dead," the Mysterious Man said with an unpleasant laugh after hearing Mo Wuyan's words.

Zhuge Xiang and the others? They're long dead? Is that true?

On the other side, in the suburbs of Shuzhong City, Zhang Kuang had completely transformed into the true form of Three Heads Six Arms, six-armed Asura True Body, looking extremely terrifying. However, it was undeniable that the aura emanating from Zhang Kuang at this moment was incredibly fierce.

With the Spear Intent, the complete Asura True Body, and the fact that Zhang Kuang himself was recognized by the Asura Path Will, the increase in his strength was not insignificant.

"You! Die!" Asura Demonic Qi surged forth as Zhang Kuang gripped the Blood Python Spear and charged furiously towards the Green-Robed Man. The Spear in his hand possessed the power to defeat ten thousand men, and he slammed it down fiercely towards his opponent.

Because of the Asura Pill, the surging bloodline power and incomparably strong strength plunged Zhang Kuang into a state of frenzied excitement, burning with fighting spirit.

With a flick of his Azure Edge Sword, the Green-Robed Man seemed to have no time to react. Caught off guard, he was actually forced back two steps by the Zhang Kuang attack.

From the start of the battle until now, the three of them, working together, had been relentlessly suppressed by this Green-Robed Man. Now, they had finally managed to force him back? Regardless, seeing Zhang Kuang's Zhang Kuang achievement, both Zhuge Xiang and Qin Qing were overjoyed.

"Not bad, you're putting some pressure on me now. You've earned my right to use my full strength." However, after taking two steps back, the Green-Robed Man showed no panic. He simply nodded calmly, a resolute look appearing in his eyes.

He's been suppressing Zhuge Xiang and the other two until now, and he hasn't even used his full strength yet?

"Stop playing tricks! Show us what you've got!" The three heads Zhang Kuang simultaneously, their voices in unison. As they spoke, Zhang Kuang pushed off with his feet and continued charging forward, his imposing aura and powerful Qi Energy almost tangible, scraping against the skin with a painful force.

"You have the Spear Intent, I have the Sword Intent; you have the Asura True Body, how could I not have Innate Dao Body?" the Green-Robed Man robe said.

As he spoke, the aura emanating from the Green-Robed Man suddenly changed, becoming increasingly natural and unremarkable, yet simultaneously increasingly dangerous...

Unlike the Asura True Body, this Green-Robed Man unleashed the bloodline of his Innate Dao Body. His body did not undergo any changes, but the Vital Energy between Heaven and Earth and earth actually fluctuated at this moment. Then, visible to the naked eye, countless Profound Mysteries charms appeared and attached themselves to the Green-Robed Man. Those incomparably profound Daoist charms seemed to be the material manifestation of the supreme Dao.

Enveloped in Daoist energy, the aura emanating from the Green-Robed Man underwent a fundamental change, becoming as majestic as a towering mountain, as flowing as a babbling brook, as silent as Qing Feng, and as formless as white clouds...

The man's aura Profound Mysteries yet natural, giving the impression of being like nature itself. However, within this tranquil aura, one could sense an immense danger, like a calm sea that, once unleashed, could unleash a devastating Great Tsunami...

"Innate Dao Body?" Zhuge Xiang's gaze turned serious. This Green-Robed Man not only comprehended Sword Intent, but also possessed Innate Dao Body? Just who was this man?

The wind caressed his face, the willows swayed naturally in the breeze, yet this seemingly casual sword Zhang Kuang, brimming with arrogant power, caused him to scream in agony, sent flying backward, coughing up blood...

"My cultivation level may not seem like much in the entire Cultivation World, but it is definitely top-tier in the Qi Refining Stage. In Yanling Commandery, I am even known as the number one Sword Cultivator below the Deity Transformation stage," the Green-Robed Man said calmly after sending Zhang Kuang flying with a light Zhang Kuang strike.

"The strongest Sword Cultivator below the Deity Transformation stage?" Upon hearing the words of the Green-Robed Man, Zhuge Xiang's expression changed slightly, and he finally realized what was going on.

Throughout the Cultivation World, there are regulations stipulating that in battles between forces, if the Battlefield is between Qi Refining Stage cultivators, Deity Transformation are not allowed to intervene. For example, in the Asura Sect Inner Sect, although the three Hall Masters are all Nascent Deity Transformation stage cultivators, no matter how intense the conflict between the Inner Sect and other forces, the three Hall Master cannot directly intervene. The only exception is in a situation like the annihilation of the Puppet Cult Deity Transformation, where a Nascent Sect. Otherwise, in battles for resources, even if all Qi Refining Stage disciples are slaughtered, Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator are absolutely forbidden from intervening. This is a rule throughout the Cultivation World.

The Major Realm Qi Refining, Deity Transformation, and Void Refinement each have their own Battlefield and stages. It is absolutely unacceptable for Deity Transformation cultivator to lead Qi Refining Stage Cultivator to attack Qi Refining Stage Cultivator from another force.

This Green-Robed Man is said to be the strongest below the Deity Transformation stage. Could it be that he is on the verge of breaking through to the Deity Transformation stage?

Zhuge Xiang had also heard that whether it was the Asura Sect or other sects, there would be a group of genius Cultivator who deliberately suppressed their cultivation at the Tenth Layer of Return to Simplicity Realm and did not break through, so that they could be of great help when competing for resources among sects.

This Green-Robed Man, with his Tenth Layer of Return to Simplicity Realm, had also comprehended Sword Intent and possessed Innate Dao Body. With his talent, breaking through to the Deity Transformation stage should have been just around the corner. Zhuge Xiang suddenly realized that he should have guessed it soon. After all, Sword Intent was the passport to the Nascent Deity Transformation stage. How could someone with Sword Intent at the Tenth Layer of Return to Simplicity Realm be so easy to find?

"Zhang Kuang! Qin Qing, you two leave immediately! I'll hold him off for you." Zhuge Xiang knew that even if the three of them joined forces today, they would not be a match for this powerful figure who Deity Transformation close to breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage and possessed an Innate Dao Body and Sword Intent. Therefore, he had the idea of retreating.

"Escape!? No way! How can we run away! We'll leave you to face this alone!" Zhang Kuang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shook his head firmly.

Having just Knockback away with a single move, Zhang Kuang had come to realize the strength of this Green-Robed Man. Even if Zhuge Xiang was stronger than him, his strength was still limited. Facing him alone? It would be a near-death experience.

"Zhang Kuang! Let's go! Otherwise, none of us will be able to leave." However, compared to Zhang Kuang's determination, Qin Qing nodded and agreed to Zhuge Xiang's suggestion.

Zhang Kuang was unaware, but Qin Qing understood perfectly well that Zhuge Xiang possessed Phoenix Feather Wings, and if he wanted to escape, no one except Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator could stop him.

"Zhang Kuang! Trust me! I will definitely leave safely!" Understanding why Zhang Kuang was unwilling to leave, Zhuge Xiang felt a warmth in his heart, so he said to Zhang Kuang with a firm look in his eyes.

Zhuge Xiang was so confident that even Qin Qing wasn't worried about him. Considering that Zhuge Xiang also possessed Demonic True Body, Zhang Kuang hesitated for a moment, then nodded emphatically and said seriously to Zhuge Xiang, "Alright, I'll go, but you have to promise me that you must leave alive. You are my rival. Without you, I can't find anyone else to measure my strength."

"Don't worry, I haven't lived enough yet, I don't want to die," Zhuge Xiang nodded and said to Zhang Kuang. After they made their decision, Qin Qing and Zhang Kuang turned around and rushed back into Shuzhong City.

"Trying to leave? You've forced out my Innate Dao Body and Sword Intent, how can I let you go?" Seeing Qin Qing and Zhang Kuang trying to leave, how could the Green-Robed Man agree? The wind brushed his face, but it was very swift, and he arrived behind Zhang Kuang and Qin Qing in the blink of an eye.

Bang!

The ground beneath Zhuge Xiang's feet exploded, sending mud and rocks flying. As if moving in an instant, Zhuge Xiang shielded Zhang Kuang and Qin Qing from behind.

A pair of jet-black demonic claws gripped Sword of Slaughter. Horns rose from his head, and he stood nine feet tall. Zhuge Xiang's crimson eyes were fixed on the Green-Robed Man. "Sorry, now it's time for the relay. Your opponent is me."

The Demonic True Body!!! (To be continued.)
