Shock, Trouble Erupts
"Hiss!"
Everyone gasped in shock when they saw Ye Liang defeated so easily.
Their eyes widened in disbelief.
"How is this possible? Am I seeing things? Ye Liang was defeated with a single palm strike?"
"Who exactly is this person? With such formidable strength, how come we've never heard of him in the cultivation Immortal Realm?"
"This is outrageous! That's the Holy Son of the Heavenly Revelation Sect! A genius with Seven-Pattern Golden Core, Late Stage of the Golden Core cultivator, and he was just slammed into the mountainside with a single palm strike! It's unbelievable!"
"Hahaha, we Rogue Cultivator have produced such a prodigy! To trample those arrogant geniuses from prestigious sects underfoot—it feels amazing! He's truly brought honor to us Rogue Cultivator!"
Zheng Siqi, Lin Jing, and Li Yan, who were also present, were all momentarily stunned upon seeing this scene, a sense of déjà vu washing over them.
Zheng Siqi let out a long sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders, and her whole body felt relaxed.
"Liu Yi is simply a monster. Even the Holy Ye Liang is no match for him, so what was there for me to hesitate about before?"
Liu Yi did not make another move. After all, with tens of thousands of people watching, it was really inappropriate to kill the Holy Son of the Heavenly Revelation Sect in public.
Just then, he received a message from Xie Tong on Microchat:
"Fellow Daoist Liu, you have shocked me greatly! You actually managed to defeat the Holy Son of the Heavenly Revelation Sect with a single palm strike. That is the Holy Son of the Heavenly Revelation Sect, not Zheng Siqi can compare to."
Fellow Daoist Liu, are you really still in the Dao Seed Realm?
How can there be such a huge gap between my Dao Seed Realm Dao Seed Realm and yours? It's like heaven and earth!
Liu Yi replied, "Thank you for your praise, fellow Daoist. Ye Liang himself is not that strong. If you cultivate to the Peak of the Dao Seed Realm and comprehend the Great Dao Principle..."
It's not impossible to defeat him. I'm still only at the Dao Seed Realm.
He silently added in his heart: It's just that my Dao Seed Realm is slightly above the standard.
Xie Tong replied, "I really don't know which peerless genius created such a powerful Dao Seed Martial Dao Cultivation System."
If it can continue to develop, it might truly surpass the Immortal Cultivation System.
Liu Yi smiled slightly and replied, "Yes, I believe that the Dao Seed Martial Dao Cultivation System can definitely surpass the Immortal Cultivation System."
Fellow Daoist Xie, you should still be careful. Many people saw us together, and I'm worried Ye Liang might cause you trouble.
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Liu, I know what I'm doing. However, since you defeated Ye Liang in front of everyone, be careful that the experts from the Heavenly Revelation Sect don't come after you," Xie Tong replied.
"Yes, I'll be leaving in a bit. I need to go into seclusion for a while and lay low for a bit."
After replying to Xie Tong, Liu Yi sent Qian Duoduo a Microchat message:
"Old Qian, you'd better watch out in the future. I just beat up your Holy Ye Liang."
He knows about my relationship with you. Be careful he doesn't cause you trouble. Or you should just run away.
"Hey, Brother Yi, you're not kidding, are you? How could you possibly beat Ye Liang?" Qian Duoduo replied immediately.
"It's true, I'll send you a video." Liu Yi sent Qian Duoduo a video he had just taken.
"Damn, Brother Yi, you're so amazing now. And how did you end up getting into a conflict with him?"
"I just went to explore the Fortune Secret Realm and accidentally hit your Heavenly Revelation Sect's Holy Son and Holy Daughter. I didn't expect Ye Liang to be so Qi Ingestion after we came out, so I hit him too."
"Damn, Brother Yi, your combat power is so strong now. Also, how come you even managed to fight the Holy Maiden Ye Qingxue?"
She's so beautiful, how could you bring yourself to sleep with her? She's my dream girl. Looks like I really need to be more careful from now on."
Just then, an incomparably powerful aura enveloped the entire Fortune Mountain like dark clouds pressing down, and a domineering voice resounded throughout the mountain:
"My Pure Void Sect Maiden Bai Li of the Qingxu Sect perished in the Fortune Secret Realm. Does anyone know who the murderer is?"
Everyone was stunned by these words.
No one expected that the Holy Maiden of the Pure Void Sect would die in the secret realm.
Bai Li was a genius cultivator with Seven-Pattern Golden Core, possessing formidable combat power. How could she have perished here?
Liu Yi was startled. He hadn't expected Bai Li's death to attract Spirit Transformation Realm expert. Would he discover that he was the one who killed her?
"It seems none of you are aware of this," the voice rang out again. "With the cultivation level of my sect's Holy Maiden, there is absolutely no way the beasts in the Fortune Secret Realm could kill her."
"The only one on the scene capable of killing her without any chance of escape is you. Come back to the Pure Void Sect with me obediently for questioning!"
Before he could finish speaking, Zheng Ming, a Pure Void Sect Spirit Transformation Realm expert from the Qingxu Sect who was hiding in the shadows, had already made his move.
A gigantic hand, imbued with immense spiritual power, appeared out of thin air and lunged at Liu Yi with overwhelming pressure.
"You bastard! You can't find the murderer yourself, so you're trying to make me a scapegoat just because I'm Rogue Cultivator. I'm not someone to be trifled with!"
When Liu Yi saw Zheng Ming attack him directly, his expression suddenly darkened.
Unexpectedly, Ye Liang's exposure of his strength just now led this Spirit Transformation Realm expert to focus his suspicions on him and take action so decisively.
Indeed, in the Immortal Realm cultivation, strength is the only true measure of power.
Perfect timing! He also wanted to test the mettle of a Nascent Spirit Transformation Realm expert and verify his current strength.
Even if he couldn't win, he was confident he could escape.
In the blink of an eye, Liu Yi's aura suddenly erupted, his hands forming a fist seal as he unleashed the Five Elements Fist.
In an instant, the power of the five elements circulated endlessly, generating a terrifying power that could obliterate all things, directly shattering the giant spiritual hand into dust.
"Kill!"
Seeing that he had shattered the giant spiritual hand with a single punch, Liu Yi's confidence soared. He moved with lightning speed, rushing towards Zheng Ming.
The Five Elements Fist was unleashed once more, its five-colored fist energy carrying earth-shattering power as it hurtled towards Zheng Ming.
"How dare you offend the might of Spirit Transformation! Today, I'll teach you a lesson you won't be so arrogant."
Zheng Ming saw that the giant hand of spiritual energy had been shattered, and Liu Yi was still attacking him.
His eyes immediately turned cold, filled with murderous intent. He formed a hand seal, and a wooden spear appeared out of thin air, blasting towards the Five Elements Fist.
"Boom!"
The Five Elements Fist and the wooden spear collided and were both annihilated in mid-air.
Liu Yi and Zheng Ming instantly clashed, exchanging blows and roaring sounds as violent energy swept in all directions.
Ye Qingxue's mouth gaped open in shock as she watched Liu Yi fight Zheng Ming to a standstill.
"How is this possible? He can actually contend with a Spirit Transformation Realm expert."
"Such formidable fighting power; it turns out he had already held back earlier."
"Who is he? Why do I feel a sense of familiarity with him? It's like I've seen him before, but including this time, we've only met four times."
In an instant, she reacted, and immediately flashed forward, grabbing the unconscious Ye Liang in her hand and quickly leaving the battlefield to avoid being injured by the aftershocks of the battle.
The people on Fortune Mountain were all astonished to see that Liu Yi could actually fight head-on with a Spirit Transformation Realm expert.
"Who exactly is this person? He's just a Rogue Cultivator, how can he possess such formidable combat power? This isn't cultivation at all!"
"This is outrageous! How can he be so strong? And without using any Law Treasure, he dares to fight Spirit Transformation Realm head-on with just his bare fists. Is he really only at the Golden Core Realm?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! I must be seeing things."
How could Golden Core Realm fight a Spirit Transformation Realm to a standstill? This person is definitely not Golden Core Realm; he's probably a Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator hiding his true strength!
"Yes! He's definitely at the Spirit Transformation Realm, and a master of body refinement at that! Otherwise, how could he dare to fight against the Spirit Transformation Realm expert with just his bare fists?"
"Whether he's Golden Core cultivator or Spirit Transformation, everyone better run! If we don't run now, it would be such a waste to be killed by the aftershocks of their fight!"
The crowd suddenly realized what was happening and immediately used their various Divine Ability to flee hastily towards the outer edge of the battlefield.
