Powerful auras erupted from both of them. Monkey knew full well how formidable Ye Xiwen was. He had been able to tell during the earlier sermon that Ye Xiwen's strength was unfathomable, like the bottom of a pool so deep one could not see its end.
Monkey did not dare relax in the slightest. He shouted, "In that case, I'll begin!"
The iron staff in Monkey's hand showed no mercy as it smashed down. In an instant, mountains and rivers shattered, the vault of heaven broke apart. There was no technique to it—just a simple blow descending with the force of ten thousand jun.

Ye Xiwen's physical body was unparalleled; with every gesture, he could seize stars and grasp moons, make heaven collapse and earth split.

Bang!
With a tremendous crash, the two sides collided viciously
