Jie Teachings Watch the Show, Lightning Strikes Puxian

Following the sound, one could see Tai Yi, Puxian, Qingxu, Yu Ding, Huang Long, and the others all stepping forward from the surroundings.

At this moment, their expressions were also solemn, their gazes toward Li Yun filled with wariness and gravity.

The latter's instant kill of Cihang had already made them all aware that Li Yun was no simple opponent; moreover, his strength was indeed as their Master had said—invincible at the same realm, and even when crossing a major realm in battle, he was not to be underestimated.

Precisely because of this, they absolutely would not allow Guang Chengzi to make the first move.

It wasn't that they feared Guang Chengzi defeating Li Yun, but rather that they worried Guang Chengzi might fail without understanding the specific situation and the gap between both sides.

As they had said, Guang Chengzi, as the senior direct disciple, represented the entire face of the Chan Teachings. If he were to be defeated here like Cihang, then the Golden Immortal Realm Combat Tournament would be a complete failure before it even ended.

"You all—"

Opening his mouth, Guang Chengzi also understood the thoughts of Yu Ding and the others.

For a moment, his inner emotions were complex. Even though there were some conflicts and even struggles among them individually, at this time, they had to unite against the external threat and work together with one heart.

After all, besides the Golden Immortal Realm cultivators of the Jie Teachings, Li Yun was now also a force not to be underestimated.

Thinking of this, the battle intent on Guang Chengzi's body also subsided somewhat. He looked at Yu Ding and the others and said, "In that case, let the various Junior Brothers go first!"

"Good!"

Receiving Guang Chengzi's reply, Yu Ding and the others did not hesitate. After exchanging glances, Puxian stepped forward, cupped his fist in salute to Li Yun, and said, "Junior Brother Li Yun, please grant your instruction."

This scene left Duobao and the other Jie Teachings disciples watching in stunned disbelief.

Li Yun's instant kill of Cihang had shocked the entire venue, but now the eleven Golden Immortals of the Chan Teachings were clearly planning to launch a wheel battle against Li Yun, which left them utterly dumbfounded!

If they remembered correctly, wasn't this supposed to be a conflict between the disciples of the Chan Teachings and the Jie Teachings?

How had it suddenly turned into the twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Teachings taking turns fighting Li Yun?

"Big Senior Brother, what should we do next—"

Exchanging glances, Jin Ling, Gui Ling, and Wudang stepped forward to ask.

"No rush—"

Waving his hand, Duobao, as the big senior brother, quickly calmed down and then said, "Since the Chan Teachings Senior Brothers want to exchange pointers with Junior Brother Li Yun, we naturally shouldn't interfere with anything!"

"If Junior Brother Li Yun can defeat the twelve Golden Immortals, then we'll go and exchange pointers with him as well—"

At these words, Gui Ling and the others' bodies trembled, instantly understanding the meaning behind Duobao's words.

Watch the show.

Now they would see whether Li Yun could defeat all twelve Golden Immortals.

If the twelve Golden Immortals still lost in a wheel battle, then the Chan Teachings' face would suffer a massive blow.

After that, if they then defeated Li Yun, it would indirectly prove that the Jie Teachings disciples had surpassed those of the Chan Teachings, and then—

"Kong Xuan—"

Almost instantly, Duobao turned his head to look at the five figures standing nearby and said, "You all must not act rashly either. This concerns the reputation of our Jie Teachings. We absolutely cannot gang up on Junior Brother Li Yun. We have already promised him; even if we fight, it can only be one-on-one."

So that's how it is!

Hearing this, Kong Xuan and the others in the nearby area suddenly understood.

When they saw the twelve Golden Immortals about to start a wheel battle, they had wondered why, if they were uniting against a common enemy, the eleven Golden Immortals of the Chan Teachings didn't just attack together.

It turned out they had already promised Li Yun to fight one-on-one. Under such circumstances, they really couldn't join forces against him; otherwise, it would be going back on their word. Not only would it be shameful, but it might even lead to alienation from the disciples of both teachings, or even expulsion by the Saints.

Thinking of this, Kong Xuan and the others nodded and said, "We understand, Big Senior Brother."

"We will definitely keep the agreement!"

"..."

Seeing this, Duobao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After resolving the last unstable factor, Duobao immediately said, "Alright, no more talk. Let's just watch the show."

"Junior Brother Li Yun is not to be underestimated. We should also observe and learn a thing or two."

At these words, many people immediately nodded in agreement.

Without any hesitation, the group of Jie Teachings disciples quickly retreated some distance, stood together, and looked toward the area within the arena.

"Senior Brother Puxian, please—"

Within the square, Li Yun looked at Puxian, who had stepped forward, and without wasting words, cupped his fist in salute.

"Yuqing Divine Thunder—Kill!"

In response, Puxian did not hesitate.

Li Yun had suddenly struck and instantly killed Cihang; now he too fiercely unleashed the Yuqing Divine Thunder, sending it hurtling toward Li Yun, as if to avenge Cihang.

But such an attack was extremely slow in Li Yun's eyes. Almost the moment Cihang's Yuqing Divine Thunder was unleashed, Li Yun also raised his hand and launched his own attack: "Taiqing Divine Thunder—Kill!"

The next second, two bolts of azure divine thunder surged forth.

But the difference was that Puxian's Yuqing Divine Thunder appeared pale cyan, while Li Yun's Taiqing Divine Thunder was clearly much deeper and richer in luster.

Almost instantly, the two bolts of thunder collided in the midair region.

Crackle, pop—

Thunderbolts converged, clashed, shattered, and broke apart.

Under the watchful eyes of many cultivators, the Yuqing Divine Thunder lasted only five seconds before it crumbled.

Immediately after, the Taiqing Divine Thunder surged straight toward Puxian's location like a splitting bamboo.

"Not good~"

As the crisis struck, Puxian dodged at the first moment.

With a loud bang, the area where Puxian had stood was instantly scorched black.

Though it hadn't broken the ground, this plaza was a dojo forged by a Saint. Not to mention Li Yun, even a Quasi-Saint couldn't have damaged it.

Just then, Li Yun raised his hand and swung it fiercely: "Taiqing Divine Thunder Thunder Tribulation~"

Rumble, rumble—

Rumble, rumble—

In an instant, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and cyan lightning danced within them.

Almost immediately, a mysterious and profound force locked onto Puxian's location. Before he could react, bolts of Taiqing Divine Thunder descended from the heavens, transforming into writhing flood dragons in midair, claws bared and fangs exposed, targeting Puxian directly, carrying a locking ability that left no room for evasion.

In just a dozen breaths, over ten bolts of Taiqing Divine Thunder had surrounded Puxian in an encirclement.

Then, with no way to avoid it, more than ten bolts of Taiqing Divine Thunder struck him from all directions.

"Ah..."

A scream echoed across the plaza. The thunder's roar ceased abruptly as the power of the Taiqing Divine Thunder gradually dissipated. Standing there, his body charred black, Puxian exhaled a puff of white smoke and looked weakly at Li Yun: "Junior Brother Li Yun, you win."

Having said that, Puxian could no longer hold on. With a thud, he collapsed to the ground and fell into unconsciousness.

"Junior Brother Puxian!"

Seeing this, the Chan Teachings disciples behind him changed expressions drastically.

Almost instantly, two figures dashed into the arena.

One of them helped Puxian up and quickly carried him away, while the remaining one glared at Li Yun and said: "Li Yun, you've gone too far."

"A sparring match, and you strike so ruthlessly!"

"Next, let me, Juliusun, be your opponent. I will definitely defeat you~"
