Three figures appeared not far from Yang Qing, their entire bodies covered in black armor. Even their heads and faces were hidden, making their true appearances impossible to discern.
Without exception, all three radiated terrifying auras. They were clearly no ordinary people.
"Kill!"
The three figures had clearly noticed Yang Qing as well. Without wasting a word, they roared in unison and charged at him.
Yang Qing was momentarily stunned. What was going on?
He had only just been sent down Sacred Cliff by his master. He had neither family nor connections in this world, so logically, he should have had no enemies.
Yet these three clearly had not mistaken him for someone else. Their target was unmistakably him, and they had come to kill him.
"Why does this aura feel somewhat familiar?" Yang Qing murmured.
As the three made their move, he suddenly sensed a familiar aura, as though he had encountered it somewhere before.
He remembered. It was the aura of Undying Mountain!
These three came from Undying Mountain, and that explained everything!
Undying Mountain and the Saint Body lineage were sworn enemies. It was not strange at all for people from Undying Mountain to come kill him.
It seemed that when he had accompanied his master to Undying Mountain last time, the Supremes within Undying Mountain had already set their sights on him.
Although his thoughts raced and he considered many things in an instant, Yang Qing's reaction was not slow.
As the three figures charged at him, he took a deep breath, stepped forward, and swung the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist to meet them.
As his cultivation gradually rose, the might the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist could unleash in his hands had long since become incomparable to before.
His essence, qi, and spirit boiled at that moment, converging into a single fist. It was the manifestation of every Dao fruit he had cultivated thus far.
When he punched forward with the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist, pressing onward without hesitation, he immediately unleashed a twilight of fallen gods. Deities wailed, and visions erupted one after another.
The next moment, the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist displayed world-shaking power. Mountains collapsed, seas roared, the sun and moon lost their light, and stars shifted through the heavens. It was terrifying beyond measure.
"Rumble!"
Amid the violent collision, Yang Qing felt tremendous pressure. Yet rather than frightening him, it made him even more excited.
His battle-loving instincts were completely awakened at that moment. It was as if he had been born for battle and had long been starving for it.
At that moment, he suddenly understood that both the Saint Body and the Huo Linfei template had been born for battle.
One had to maintain an unwavering conviction amid fierce combat, carving out a bright and clear world and a mountain of corpses and sea of blood.
There were only strong warriors forged through killing, never strong warriors cultivated in peace!
To prove the Dao through slaughter—perhaps that was why his master had sent him down the mountain!
After gaining this realization, his fist truly began to possess "intent," and its bearing changed completely.
"How is this possible?"
The three men from Undying Mountain were shocked. Before coming here, they had already gathered sufficient information on their target.
This man before them was the disciple of the Great Accomplishment Saint Body. Just over a month ago, he had only been a cultivator in the Wheel Sea Realm.
The Great Accomplishment Saint Body must have gone mad. His disciple was so weak, yet he had actually dared to let him leave alone.
With their cultivation at the second level of the Immortal Platform Realm, killing this man should have been nothing more than using a butcher's knife to kill a chicken.
But could someone tell them what was happening now?
Wasn't he supposed to be in the Wheel Sea Realm? How had he become an Immortal Platform Realm cultivator?
In just over a month, even if he had ridden a rocket, his cultivation could not possibly have risen so quickly.
Could it be that the Great Accomplishment Saint Body had deliberately concealed it, causing the Supremes to misjudge him?
But that could not be right! No matter how heaven-defying the Great Accomplishment Saint Body was, he could not possibly hide it from several Supremes!
However, they had no time to think further. A terrifying fist intent had already descended, as though it could shatter the Myriad Worlds.
The three roared in unison. Rather than retreating, they struck together, bearing down like three great mountains.
So what if he was in the Immortal Platform Realm?
This man was only at the first level of the Immortal Platform Realm, while they were at the second level!
Their cultivation was a full major realm higher. Could they possibly still lose?
The two sides clashed, and heaven and earth seemed to collapse in an instant. Terrifying forces intertwined, forming dreadful visions that blanketed the world.
Yang Qing swung the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist. His blood and qi surged around him, shooting into the sky and blotting out the heavens as a great sun slowly rose.
The three from Undying Mountain simultaneously unleashed killing moves. They came from a Forbidden Zone of Life; not only was their inheritance ancient, it was also extraordinary.
"Rumble!"
In the brutal battle, Yang Qing was forced back step by step by the three from Undying Mountain at first.
This was his first real battle. The gap between theory and practice revealed itself at once, leaving him somewhat unaccustomed to it.
But he soon halted his decline. His battle instincts gradually emerged, and his combat strength steadily climbed.
The three from Undying Mountain were shocked once again. They had never seen anyone like this—someone who could continuously improve during battle.
It was as if they had become whetstones. Under their pressure, this man only grew stronger the more he fought, as though he had no limit.
Yet their cultivation was a full major realm above his, and there were three of them working together. By all reason, they should have crushed him quickly.
The fact that he could barely hold on had already shocked them greatly. Yet he could even grow stronger in battle—what kind of monstrous freak was this?
Yang Qing grew more frenzied with every exchange. His blood and qi became increasingly turbulent, and suddenly, the vision of Immortal King Descends Upon Nine Heavens appeared.
He transformed directly into an unmatched Immortal King, descending from the sky as he swung the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist at one of them.
The other two attacked at the same time, but he ignored them completely. At that moment, his eyes held only one target.
"You—"
That man had never expected Yang Qing to be so frenzied. Faced with the overwhelming killing intent, he could not help but feel a trace of fear.
Intimidated by the fist intent, it was already too late when he tried to react. Yang Qing's punch shattered half of his body.
Afterward, Yang Qing battled the remaining two. The Six Paths Reincarnation Fist grew ever more blazing, becoming stained with golden radiance.
True Solar Power boiled as Solar Divine Sense merged with his fist intent. In battle, he gradually found a fighting style that belonged to him.
The more he fought, the clearer his mind became. Yang Qing had already passed the initial difficult stage, and instead was no longer in any hurry to end this battle.
Such excellent sparring partners—wouldn't it be a pity to kill them right away?
Undying Mountain was truly thoughtful, specially sending him three sparring partners whose strength happened to be just right.
If they had been any weaker, they could not have tempered him at all. If they had been any stronger, he would not have been able to defeat them.
They were perfect as they were, allowing him to gradually adapt to the rhythm of battle and no longer fear brutal slaughter.
Where else could he find such a good thing?
"You go too far!"
Before long, the three from Undying Mountain saw through Yang Qing's intentions. Fury burned within each of them. How could they endure such humiliation?
Unable to bear the insult, the three erupted with astonishing combat strength. Yang Qing was instantly overjoyed and charged forward with the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist.
After the brutal battle, the three from Undying Mountain lay on the ground, their bodies shattered and their eyes vacant and lifeless.
"My lord rules the rise and fall of the mortal world. He will never let you go!"
With endless unwillingness, the three from Undying Mountain closed their eyes, ending their sinful lives.
This battle was not because they were incompetent. Their opponent had simply been too monstrous. The fault was not theirs!
