Disciple, Watch Closely! This Is the Might of Great Perfection of Qi Refining-One Finger Imprisons Heaven and Earth!
Misty Sect.
Everyone below wore a dull, stunned expression.
Those who had stayed far from Chu Feng all revealed traces of shock in their eyes.
"This Seat has acted all his life. Why should he care about others..."
"A grandmaster? Mere ants..."
Neither sentence had sounded harsh or explosive in the slightest. They had been spoken in an utterly calm tone, as though he were merely recounting an insignificant matter.
Yet those two plain sentences had struck everyone's minds like thunder from a clear sky.
If such words had come from an ordinary person, they might have thought him insane.
But they had come from Chu Feng, whose aura alone had suppressed the four directions. Waves of horror now lingered in everyone's hearts, leaving them trembling without end.
To regard a grandmaster as an ant—what kind of arrogance was that?
The gazes of the many who had fallen prostrate intertwined from the corners of their eyes upon the young man standing on the Training Ground.
Could it be that Xiao Huohuo's master had truly broken through the grandmaster realm, just as he claimed, and reached an even higher level?
Could it be that the legendary Heavenly Man Realm was more than just a legend?
Six hundred years ago, Bodhidharma Patriarch had reached the summit of the world. Could he, too, have become a figure like Xiao Huohuo's master?
Thoughts churned in everyone's hearts, including those of Mo Wanli and the other grandmasters.
Clutching his chest, Mo Wanli staggered to his feet from the ground.
The aura that had seemed so mild moments ago had shaken his meridians until they trembled, and had nearly torn his internal organs apart.
Fortunately, he was highly experienced and had protected himself with internal force in advance.
Otherwise, merely being struck by that young man's aura would have sent his soul to the underworld.
His eyes still held a trace of fear, but he understood that if they could not persuade this young man today, none of them would leave alive.
Mo Wanli could only brace himself and continue:
"Senior, you should think this through carefully."
"What these ants can give you, my Black Underworld Sect can give you as well—and even more."
"My Black Underworld Sect occupies the territory of the Three Continents. We are far beyond what these ants can compare to. If you become friends with my Black Underworld Sect..."
Before he could finish, the young man in his sight slowly stepped into the air, as though invisible walls and stairs existed beneath his feet. Each step made it seem as if he were walking on solid stairs rather than air.
When he reached midair, all eyes fixed upon him.
Chu Feng gazed at the distant sky, his indifferent voice echoing between heaven and earth:
"I have no interest in eliminating a scourge for the Great Zhao."
"This so-called generous reward holds no interest for This Seat either."
Hearing these words, the hundreds of martial artists from Cangzhou below revealed despairing expressions. Their eyes sank into utter hopelessness.
By contrast, Mo Wanli and the other Black Underworld Sect members, who had been standing rigidly with furrowed brows, all relaxed and rejoiced!
However, before the smile at the corner of Mo Wanli's mouth could spread fully, his expression suddenly froze.
"However, you have obstructed This Seat's path."
"You coveted This Seat's disciple and This Seat's cultivation technique."
"You have displeased This Seat greatly."
As his voice fell, thunder flashed across the heavens.
Beneath the rolling silver lightning, Chu Feng turned and looked downward, his gaze settling on Xiao Huohuo:
"Disciple, have you not always been curious about the might of the complete move behind Half Finger Shakes the Heavens, which is only half a move, and what the scene of Great Perfection of Qi Refining is like?"
"Today, Your Master will demonstrate the complete move of Half Finger Shakes the Heavens for you with the cultivation of Great Perfection of Qi Refining!"
Chu Feng's indifferent voice echoed between heaven and earth.
The group from the Black Underworld Sect felt a sense of unease rise in their hearts upon hearing this.
"Wh-what is going on..."
Suddenly, trembling voices rang out from all across Misty Sect's mountain.
The ground began to tremble faintly.
The sand and mud covering the earth seemed to have been affected as well, and the tremors grew increasingly violent.
A fierce gale suddenly swept across the bodies of everyone below.
The crowd looked up at the sky in terror.
At some point, the clouds above had already grown incomparably dense.
The heavy black clouds spun amid flashes of thunder, resembling a whirlpool upon the surface of the water.
Beneath the sky, violent energy stirred up a storm.
The trees swayed wildly in every direction, the halls and buildings shattered, and countless grains of sand and stones were swept upward like flowing streams.
The winds grew stronger and the aura grew heavier.
Suddenly, a sharp glint flashed through Chu Feng's eyes as he raised his hand toward the sky.
Thunder raged and coiled as an aura capable of destroying heaven and earth spread down from the sky.
Beneath that weighty aura, even the Five Grandmasters seemed incomparably tiny.
Mo Wanli stared blankly at the divine and demonic scene in the sky, and his body immediately began to tremble. His legs went weak.
With a thump, the Five Grandmasters all fell to their knees.
Tears glimmered at the corners of Mo Wanli's eyes. His head trembled violently as he repeatedly kowtowed and begged for mercy:
"Senior, we were wrong. We'll leave immediately."
"Please spare us. As long as you are willing to let us go, we'll do anything."
With every sentence he spoke, he slammed his head heavily against the ground.
A line of blood slid down his forehead, yet he did not stop.
But in the sky, Chu Feng paid no attention to his pleas.
Those eyes flashing with divine light looked down indifferently upon the five grandmasters of the Black Underworld Sect. His lips parted slightly.
A voice seemingly descended from the primordial wasteland echoed across the sky.
"Great Desolation Prison Heaven Finger."
"One finger—imprisons heaven and earth!"
As his voice fell, a colossal finger emerged from the slowly rotating mass of dense black clouds.
The instant the giant finger appeared.
The area where the Five Grandmasters stood seemed to have countless great mountains crash down upon it. They were pressed firmly into the earth, and beneath that terrifying might, even the surrounding space seemed to stretch out like threads before their eyes.
The Five Grandmasters could all sense an incomparably powerful force around them, restricting their paths of retreat.
Mo Wanli and the other four, drenched in sweat and pale-faced, exchanged a glance. They all saw despair and resolve in each other's eyes.
Startled and enraged, they circulated their internal force to its utmost limit and rose boldly.
"We'll fight him!"
The five men each took up a stance and unleashed their supreme techniques.
Their internal force was drained completely as they violently sent out five Mountain-Suppressing Giant Palms imbued with the artistic conception of mountains and rivers.
The giant palms surged toward the sky.
At that moment, the colossal finger of destruction also descended from the heavens.
Boom!
The finger and palms collided in midair.
The instant they touched, the giant palms futilely raised their arms against the cart. They held out for less than a breath before collapsing. The palms actually crumbled into smoke and ash like scraps of paper.
Immediately afterward, in the Five Grandmasters' incredulous and terrified eyes, the descending finger of destruction grew faster and faster, drawing ever closer.
It filled their entire pupils!
Rumble!
The giant finger struck the ground, sending dust billowing across the sky. The halls and buildings collapsed, and the entire Misty Mountain shook violently as though a heavenly disaster had descended.
After a long while, when the dust had dispersed, the crowd finally saw the scene clearly once more.
More than half of the Training Ground where the Five Grandmasters had stood had vanished completely.
A massive pit dozens of meters in diameter appeared before everyone's eyes.
The earth was charred black.
Within that deep pit, the Five Grandmasters and more than ten Xiantian experts had all been crushed into powder.
They were dead beyond dead!
