The Strongest Martial Arts Grandmaster!

Du Li was stunned. His Iron Cloth Shirt had long since reached the Great Accomplishment stage, and he had even used the Gang Transformation Pill to briefly refine Qi into Gang. He believed that even facing a true Grandmaster, he could at least entangle and fight for a while with his Iron Cloth Shirt, if not win outright.

But the result? The opponent had easily killed him with a single saber strike?

"Second brother!"

"Second brother!"

Du Meng and Du Ying, who had been waiting on the sides for Du Li to tie up Tang Jie before seizing the opportunity to kill him, were also stunned. They only saw a flash of dazzling golden light before their eyes, causing a slight disorientation, and Du Li had already been cut in half from the chest.

Du Li's eyes widened, and he slowly lost consciousness. His heart was filled with confusion and unwillingness. He was a Martial Arts Grandmaster himself now. They had used the same method to deal with a Martial Arts Grandmaster before, but it didn't work against Tang Jie?

"What... what is this?"

Du Jue and Tang Tianhao were also dumbfounded. Facing the siege of three Grandmasters, they had been filled with worry, expecting a fierce battle. However, Tang Jie had killed one of them almost instantly! It was no different than slicing vegetables!

By using Golden Bell Gang Qi to propel the Boyhood Art, Tang Jie's cultivation could ascend to the Boyhood Golden Body state. In this state, his power would far surpass that of the Red Sun Art cultivation. This was the first time Tang Jie had used it in combat.

Without looking back at Du Li's corpse, Tang Jie walked towards Du Ying.

"Bang bang bang!"

With every step Tang Jie took, Du Ying's heart pounded as if Tang Jie was stepping on his chest.

"I'll fight you to the death! Eagle Claw Art!"

Du Ying couldn't help but take a step back, but seeing Du Li's unclosed eyes in death, his face contorted into a ferocious expression. He let out a roar and lunged at Tang Jie.

"Chichichi!"

Du Ying leaped up, like a great eagle spreading its wings and soaring through the sky. His claws, like an eagle's talons, lunged towards Tang Jie's head, weaving a series of claw shadows. With his current Refining Qi into Gang cultivation, he could pierce even the hardest human skull like tofu!

"Pfft!"

However, Tang Jie's figure flickered slightly. It seemed slow, but in reality, it was an instantaneous movement that left a trailing afterimage. While evading Du Ying's eagle claws, he drew the Iron Cutting Saber from its sheath, which flashed with a cold light. He drew a horizontal line, and then the Iron Cutting Saber returned to its sheath.

"Swish!"

Du Ying's body fell to the ground. A blood line appeared at his waist, and his body split apart. His internal organs and blood mixed and dripped onto the ground.

"Is this... the Bull Demon King Tang Jie? Just as the rumors say... invincible..." Du Ying's mouth bled, and a sense of powerlessness arose in his heart. He was not an opponent on the same level. Even though they had used the Gang Transformation Pill to stimulate all their potential, they were still unable to withstand Tang Jie's saber strike!

"Second brother, third brother!"

In the blink of an eye, both brothers had died by Tang Jie's hand. Du Meng's eyes turned red; he had never expected such a result.

"Tang Jie! Take this saber strike!"

Du Meng roared with red eyes, charging madly at Tang Jie. He tightly gripped a heavy-bladed saber in both hands and slashed horizontally at Tang Jie like a roaring fierce tiger.

"Five Tiger Soul Severing Saber!"

Du Meng's saber strike cut through the air, making a whistling sound. This was his all-out strike, his most peak strike in this life. The saber moved like the wind, accompanied by the sound of a tiger's roar, as if it were meant to sever the soul!

"Clang!"

With a whistling sound, Du Meng's blade stopped in mid-air because a golden palm had gripped the blade, preventing it from advancing even half an inch!

"Crack!"

Tang Jie clenched his five fingers with force, unleashing a surge of Gang Qi. The heavy-bladed saber then made crisp cracking sounds like glass. A piece of the saber's blade was crushed by Tang Jie's fingers, and the shattered blade fell to the ground, reflecting the golden light from Tang Jie's body.

Du Meng weakly lowered his arm, staring blankly at the tall young man before him. His voice held a hint of bitterness as he asked, "Why... why? We killed a Grandmaster using the same method before, but now... we've failed?"

Tang Jie looked at him, pondered for a moment, and said earnestly, "Perhaps it's because I'm stronger among Grandmasters."

Du Meng's mouth twitched slightly. Although he hadn't met many Martial Arts Grandmasters, Tang Jie's combat power was definitely the strongest among them, so strong it seemed to exceed the boundaries of a Grandmaster! Even the three of them, top-tier martial artists who had briefly possessed Grandmaster combat power, were as fragile as infants when facing Tang Jie!

"Bull Demon King... I admit defeat. You've won. I hope you can leave a significant mark on the path of martial arts in the future. Also, please bury me with my two brothers." Du Meng showed a wry smile on his face.

"Chih!"

Du Meng raised his damaged blade and, with a swift and clean motion, sliced it across his own neck. Instantly, flesh tore, and blood gushed out. Du Meng collapsed softly onto the ground, blood spreading beneath him.

The loser dies!

Tang Jie looked at the corpses on the ground, falling into a moment of silence. This was the martial world; it was impossible not to have blood on one's hands. These three wanted the heads of his father and himself to have their wanted status revoked. They failed, so they died!

He believed that if Tang Jie's strength hadn't exceeded their imagination, their father and son would be the ones whose heads would be separated from their bodies!

"Father, Uncle-Master, I'll help you remove the poison."

After dealing with the invading enemies, Tang Jie walked over and said to the stunned Du Jue and Tang Tianhao.

"Hmm... what martial art did you just use?" Tang Tianhao asked as he nodded, unable to suppress his curiosity. The martial art Tang Jie had just used was very similar to the Boyhood Art, but it was clearly much stronger than the Red Sun Art, the highest realm of the Boyhood Art!

Du Jue also looked at Tang Jie, his curiosity at its peak. The strength Tang Jie had just displayed had surpassed his understanding of martial artists!

As Tang Jie helped Tang Tianhao and Du Jue circulate their energy to remove the poison, he explained, "Two days ago, after using the Sarira to cultivate the Golden Bell Shield to the tenth level, Refining Qi into Gang, I discovered that these two martial arts could cooperate to unleash even greater power."

"So... that's how it is."

Tang Tianhao and Du Jue exchanged glances, seeing the wry smiles in each other's eyes.

Both the Boyhood Art and the Golden Bell Shield had reached profound realms, and this unexpected synergy had occurred. They knew nothing of it, and even now, they understood that they would never be able to reach such a realm in their lifetime.

"Your current cultivation is far superior to Master's. Giving that Sarira to you truly maximized its effect," Du Jue sighed. Tang Jie's current cultivation was now far superior to their Master, Master Zhiqing!

He suspected that among all the martial artists in the world, only a few could defeat Tang Jie, and Tang Jie was only in his early twenties. It was truly difficult to imagine what realm he could reach in the future!

"Let's bury their bodies," Tang Jie said after finishing the detoxification for Tang Tianhao and Du Jue.

These bodies definitely needed to be buried.

"Mm, Amitabha!" Du Jue nodded. He sighed, acknowledging that feuds and killings were a daily occurrence in the martial world, something no one could stop.

Tang Jie and the other two carried the bodies to the back mountain for burial.

Meanwhile, at the foot of Great Green Mountain, nearly a hundred soldiers in armor were heading up the mountain.

"Lord Sun, ahead is Great Green Mountain. According to the intelligence, the Du Tang Three Fiends are on the mountain!"

A soldier reported respectfully.

A middle-aged man, clad in armor and built like a bear, sat atop a horse. A smile played on his lips as he dismounted, waving his hand. "Let's go, brothers! These Du Tang Three Fiends have been at large for years, but they dare to trespass on our territory. Today, we'll make sure they never leave!"

The nearly hundred soldiers marched up the mountain with a sense of excitement. The Du Tang Three Fiends were wanted criminals, and capturing them would bring a substantial reward!
