Peak Perfection Realm! (4,000 words; votes requested midmonth)

"Huh?"

Li Xiuwen's eyes widened.

If this illusion was real, just how powerful had the Grandmaster been?

He had parted the world's hair down the middle with one punch?

The One-Punch Daoist?

Li Xiuwen came to his senses and looked again.

The tsunami had been flattened!

The dark clouds had been swept away!

Even the whirlpool was trembling.

Countless monsters dissolved into bloody mist beneath the invisible waves of vibration.

The entire stretch of sea became an ocean of blood.

Li Xiuwen saw nine great golden characters in the starry sky.

They shone across the eternal heavens like stars!

Crooked and uneven, they still blazed with force!

"Heaven and Earth Shaken!"

"Sea Trembled, Whale-Splitting!"

"Chan!"

Boom—crack!

The illusion vanished.

Li Xiuwen woke as if from a dream.

"Looks like my guess was right. The ultimate form of the Whale-Killing Fist is Heaven and Earth Shaken, Sea Trembled, Whale-Splitting Chan. Otherwise, the Grandmaster wouldn't have hidden this move at Peak Perfection Realm."

Li Xiuwen put the vision behind him.

He looked toward the [Incense Burner].

[Whale-Killing Fist: Fifth Layer (Peak Perfection)]

This was the first time he had trained a Combat Method to Peak Perfection Realm.

Fifth Layer: Suppressing the Heavenly Abyss!

Before, Li Xiuwen had never understood the name.

After seeing the vision the Grandmaster had left behind, he understood.

This was the Grandmaster's ambition!

Fight the Giant Whale, command the four seas, stand alone to suppress the Heavenly Abyss!

Survey the world, and every robed figure in the hall was an old fossil!

Li Xiuwen clenched his fist, veins bulging. The surging Qi and Blood from his ten blood seeds found an outlet, bursting through his pores to form a visible ring of dark azure force that lingered around him.

Mr. Long's words echoed in his mind.
