Tang Zhan and Liu Ye

The lotus platform of the Xihe Flower Array has suffered severe damage, with some petals broken.

"Smack!"

Li Weiyi shattered the ice covering his arms, feeling pain in his skin as he was frostbitten by the cold air from the "Hellfrost Descent" technique.

To fight against the inheritors of the Ninth Heaven with their bare hands, one must cultivate the Longevity Body to 70% of its full strength.

Li Weiyi's "muscles and skin" are at 60% strength, while Jin Gu is even weaker, at 50% strength.

If all of them could be upgraded to 70% strength, even a third-level Major Technique wouldn't be able to harm him in the slightest. He could withstand it without battle armor, protective aura, or any protective magic.

A magical artifact below the Thousand Character Artifact Vessel can be easily destroyed with just two hands.

Like some powerful demonic beasts, their fur is their armor, their claws are their magical weapons, and their blood is their magical power.

"In the end, there is still a gap between them and the inheritors of the Ninth Heaven."

Li Weiyi's greatest reliance now is his physical strength.

Martial arts skills and mental power are merely icing on the cake.

The reason he was able to cultivate his physical combat power to such an abnormal level against the odds is that he cultivated both the Wind Mansion Dragon Seed and the Twelve-Character Dao Seed of the Divine Palace at the same time. Each breakthrough in his realm would temper and enhance his physical body.

Other martial arts practitioners, upon reaching the Sixth Heaven, only saw their physical bodies improve six times.

However, by the time he reached the Sixth Heaven, his physical body had already advanced twelve times: six times in the Wind Palace and six times in the Divine Palace.

Seven zhang away at the bottom of the water.

Tang Zhan's telepathic message reached Li Weiyi's ears.

After listening, Li Weiyi nodded slightly, took out a Divine Speed Talisman, stuck it to his chest, and sent a telepathic message back. "Thank you for the reminder, Young Master and Your Excellency. Let's go together."

When Li Weiyi was Six-star Mind Master, the "Xing" Divine Speed Talisman he crafted was already faster than that of ordinary Ninth Heaven martial artists. Now that his mental power has broken through to the seven-star Mind Master realm, the speed of the "Xing" Divine Speed Talisman he crafts is unimaginable.

Qiong Ji Daozi narrowed his eyes, not expecting that the other party had withstood the "Hellfrost Descent" without his skin turning slightly red, showing no signs of being seriously injured.

How can this physical body be so strong?

It should be noted that Qiong Ji Daozi's physical body is not weak; he has cultivated to 30-40% of the strength of the Longevity Body, placing him at the forefront of all Ninth Heaven martial artists in the Lingxiao Shengjing.

"Trying to escape using talismans? Do you think you can escape the Dao Heart Manifestation?"

Qiong Ji Daozi pressed his hands to his temples.

The rice-grain-shaped crystal between his brows instantly emitted a bright, star-like radiance, unleashing countless Sword Qi.

Each Sword Qi strike tore through the sea, creating towering waves.

Like a net of swords, a rain of swords, and a curtain of swords, they covered the sky and flew towards Li Weiyi from all directions, blocking his retreat and filling all the space in the sky and the sea.

Li Weiyi dodged and quickly retreated.

The crystal Qiong Ji Daozi's eyebrows slowly moved outward.

It was actually a crystalline ancient sword, its blade seemingly bursting out of his skull.

In the sky, a Giant Sword, hundreds of meters long, appeared, its light and shadow like moonlight breaking through the clouds. The sword tip pointed downwards and the hilt upwards.

The sword tip pointed directly at Li Weiyi on the sea below, locking onto him.

Throughout the entire Moon Dragon Island market, within the area enveloped by the Dao Heart Manifestation Qiong Ji Daozi, all the magical weapons and swords of martial cultivators trembled slightly.

"No matter how strong your physical body is, you can't possibly withstand the Thousand Character Artifact. Even less likely, you can't withstand my Tian Ji Sword."

The sword that grows between Qiong Ji Daozi's eyebrows was absorbed into his body when he was still a stalk of Benevolent Rice. In addition, he devoured and absorbed one of his twin brothers when he was a fetus.

Dao Zu felt that this child was so domineering and fierce even in the womb, and might go astray and become uncontrollable. Therefore, he entrusted him to An Xianjing for education, in order to suppress his temperament as much as possible.

"Whoosh!"

The Tian Ji Sword flew out from Qiong Ji Daozi's eyebrows, moving as fast as a shooting star, leaving a long white trail on the sea.

The seawater is divided in two.

The phantom of the Giant Sword in the sky also suddenly fell.

With a splash, Tang Zhan emerged from the water, wielding two swords.

"Bang!"

With his right hand, he wielded a sword that clashed with the Tian Ji Sword, creating a sky filled with sword light.

With his left hand, he swung his sword at Qiong Ji Daozi from a distance of one mile, the Sword Qi causing the seawater within that mile to surge into a giant arc-shaped wave.

Qiong Ji Daozi raised a shield with Thousand Character Artifact seal, but was knocked back several miles by Tang Zhan's sword.

The hand holding the shield in Qiong Ji Daozi was throbbing with pain and numbness from the shock, and his blood and qi surged within him. He immediately retrieved the Tian Ji Sword that was flying on the sea. His pupils contracted as he stared at Tang Zhan, who had suddenly appeared.

Behind Tang Zhan, Li Weiyi had already swung his Peach Wood Staff, striking the Giant Sword phantom that was falling from the sky and shattering it into a waterfall of flowing light.

Li Weiyi looked at Tang Zhan, who had appeared.

It was discovered that this person's cultivation was simply unfathomable; any senses that landed on him dissolved into nothingness.

Any light that shines upon him is swallowed up.

Like a black stone statue holding two swords, devoid of any other color.

"And who are you?"

Qiong Ji Daozi sensed a very unusual aura emanating from Tang Zhan.

Tang Zhan said, "Who I am is not important."

"Then I will dispel the darkness surrounding you and see your true face, what you really look like." The Tian Ji Sword in Qiong Ji Daozi's hand shone brightly.

You are not qualified.

Tang Zhan looked behind Qiong Ji Daozi.

On the dim sea, a crimson figure of a straw man walked with steady steps, leaving ripples in his wake.

Like a three-meter-long human torch, it exudes a powerful aura and marches towards the battlefield.

Tang Zhan said, "He can! Dao Palace Huo Xin, born with a pure Yang body, already possesses the physical strength of a 50 Longevity Body, and has even entered the fourth level of the Blazing Divine Flame. But, there's no need for tonight, let's go."

Li Weiyi and Tang Zhan unleashed their maximum speed and headed towards the deep sea.

"Haha, you know me so well, why are you leaving? Today, neither of you is allowed to escape."

With a long Huo Xin laugh, the crimson light around his body burst into flames, instantly setting the sea within a mile radius ablaze and boiling over.

He increased his speed dramatically, quickly closing the distance between himself and the two people in front of him.

The martial arts practitioners on the numerous ships in the harbor were all shocked by the great battle at sea.

"Is this a clash between the strongest experts below the Longevity Realm? It feels more like a battle between Longevity Realm Giants."

"That martial artist shrouded in darkness must be Liu Fengshu's companion. He's too domineering. He broke through Qiong Ji Daozi's attack with a single sword strike and repelled him with a second. Truly, there are heavens beyond heavens and people beyond people."

"This is a clash between Inheritor-level; each one is highly skilled and displaying their unique abilities."

"Even among those who inherit the legacy, there are differences in skill level. The people from the Dao Palace are clearly extraordinary."

"What a pity! They are all heroes from beyond the borders. Our experts from the Twenty-Eight Prefectures of Lingxiao Shengjing gathered together, yet they were completely overshadowed. If Tang Wanzhou, Zuoqiu Ling, Song Yulou, and others had not broken through to their realms, they would surely have shone brightly, representing Lingxiao in fierce competition with them, and challenging them on the seas."

The power of the runes on Li Weiyi's chest Divine Speed Talisman erupted completely. He unleashed a Psychic Power Spiritual Light, enveloping Tang Zhan and carrying him away at breakneck speed, even faster than Huo Xin.

Tang Zhan was secretly surprised, thinking that it must have been the Jiu Li Hidden Gate that bestowed upon Li Weiyi's only escape treasure.

A vast and ancient voice echoed from above, "One Body, Twin Birth All Rice, One Root; all rice people under heaven are one family. Your enmity against the Lingxiao Dao Cult is your enmity against the Dao Palace."

Zhen Xin radiated an icy blue glow, standing in the sky above a patch of bluish-gray clouds, bathed in starlight.

The next moment.

He leaped down from the clouds and intercepted the sea thousands of feet below, like an immortal descending to the mortal realm.

"We can't let him stop us, we have to fight him."

Tang Zhan leaped into the air, his twin swords slashing out a horizontal and vertical cross-shaped sword mark.

With Zhen Xin fearlessness, he drew circles with his hands, clasped them together in front of his chest, and his spiritual energy and scriptures burst forth from his ancestral field. His body was then enveloped by an ice-blue iceberg, colliding with the cross-shaped sword imprint coming from below.

"Crack."

The power of the cross-shaped sword seal far exceeded Zhen Xin's expectations, shattering the iceberg's Imperial Road with overwhelming force.

He Zhen Xin dodged the attack, his magical robes torn by the Sword Qi, leaving bloodstains on his skin. Before he could regain his footing, a peach branch struck him.

The peach branch grew from the Peach Wood Staff in Li Weiyi's hand, formed by condensing Psychic Power Spiritual Light.

"Bang!"

Zhen Xin hurriedly struck out with his palm, which collided with the peach branch, causing him to be forced back.

In this first encounter, Tang Zhan and Li Weiyi cooperated seamlessly, seizing the opportunity perfectly and demonstrating extraordinary combat experience, Zhen Xin Zhenxin's attempt to intercept them.

Zhen Xin glanced at the faint bloodstain on his left arm, then looked at the two fleeing figures and said, "You two are both experts. Killing you would be quite a challenge, but I believe it would also be a very enjoyable experience."

Zhen Xin and Huo Xin merge into one, heading towards the deep sea.

They didn't believe that the "Liu Fengshu's" escape talisman could last forever.

"Whoosh!"

A long spear emerged from the seabed, drawing out a streak of magical energy hundreds of meters long from south to north.

The sea before Zhen Xin and Huo Xin was like a giant mouth, ready to devour them.

"It's you again."

The Huo Xin roared, unleashing the fourth level of the Blazing Divine Flame, which boiled the vast ocean.

He Zhen Xin spat out a bead-like magical artifact and struck it towards the seabed.

The two recognized the man by the long spear before them; they had already encountered him once in Old Yuzhou. His combat prowess was extremely strong; he was the second most skilled young fighter they had met since arriving in the East Sea, second only to Princess Dengfeng.

The Liu Ye burst forth from the water, cleaving out a second spear thrust.

"Boom!"

The entire sea area exploded, and the three of them were simultaneously blasted back.

Liu Ye glanced in the direction of the deep sea and found that Li Weiyi and Tang Zhan had disappeared into the mist. So, she decisively picked up her spear and left to chase after them.

With Huo Xin gaze fixed on the receding figure carrying a spear, he asked, "Shall we pursue him?"

"With the two true disciples gone, there's no point in chasing after them. These three together already pose a significant and troublesome problem," Zhen Xin said.

The Huo Xin said, "Then let them live a few more days."

"What are the origins of these three? They couldn't possibly be from the Demon Kingdom, could they?" Zhen Xin fell into deep thought.

The two had very high standards; only a few ancient religions and kingdoms in Southern Yingzhou met their criteria.
