Those who escape the fists can enter the Dragon Gate.

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire area fell silent for a moment, completely still.

Countless people thought they had misheard.

To win by taking on multiple opponents and letting them escape? That's not just arrogance, it's utter insanity!

But the voice echoed and reached their ears, as if, single-handedly, it had set new "rules" for the Dragon Gate Contest.

Upon seeing that smiling young face, everyone present understood—this person was truly prepared to take on everyone single-handedly!

Niu Tuntian swallowed hard, feeling that his understanding of Yu Tunzhou based solely on their last encounter was too one-sided, unlike the comprehensive Dragon and Tiger Ranking from the Central Plains.

It decided to retract its previous assessment of Brother Huang Tian as "ignorant of his own limitations" and instead bestow that assessment upon Yu Tunzhou.

The brief silence that followed was like the calm before a storm, quickly giving way to a fierce rebound.

The moment Yu Tunzhou turned and descended the steps, his powerful Fist Intent descended like a curtain from the sky, truly making everyone's hearts pound with fear.

Perhaps none of those who have made it this far are weak.

A deafening laugh erupted from behind the crowd.

"Ha ha ha ha--"

Niu Tuntian strode forward first, his laughter rough and bold, carrying an extreme level of overbearing confidence.

"Brother Yu, I, Old Niu, want the first spot!"

Niu Tuntian laughed heartily, ignoring all the other people's words, and charged straight at Yu Tunzhou!

Its body swelled up, its bronze muscles bulged like mountains, and the black veins on its surface moved like living things. With each step it took, it seemed to make the heavens and earth creak.

To shake the heavens and earth with pure physical strength, achieving a state of Unity of Heaven and Celestial Person, this single move made everyone's gaze freeze.

This physical body is probably even more powerful than a divine weapon from the External Scenery!

boom--

Niu Tuntian's figure was like a moving mountain, carrying an overwhelming momentum, rushing straight upwards and crashing hard into that seemingly frail figure in green robes.

This impact was enough to traverse mountains!

Niu Tuntian's move instantly brought color back to the previously silent scene.

One after another, figures suddenly soared through the air and ascended the steps!

Some people focused their attention on the two, wanting to know the outcome of this battle, but many more were looking to take advantage of the situation.

Jin Buxi withdrew his gaze, his figure suddenly rushing towards Deng Canglan, a magic sword appearing in his hand, and he shouted sharply:

"You fiend, die!"

Deng Canglan sighed, "Why bother?"

Can a few days of brotherhood really not compare to more than a decade of camaraderie among fellow disciples?

According to what he gleaned from the conversation, Brother Jin had been in seclusion for over a decade, rarely meeting Yao Liang, who had died at his hands. Yet, these past ten days had been a period of life and death together!

"That's incredibly audacious of you, trying to stop all of us by yourself."

Wu Xuan, his killing intent palpable, withdrew his gaze, skipped over the crowd, and looked at Lin Yueheng, saying coldly,

"However, Brother Lin, you are more important. I'll kill you first, and then I'll consider where that person's confidence comes from."

"Certainly..."

"Perhaps before I can sink you into the Blood River, this person will already have been killed by someone else."

Lin Yueheng drew his sword, his body Sword Qi as swift as water, meeting the attack head-on.

"You won't have that chance anymore. I'll kill you first, then I'll go and experience Brother Yu's fist techniques."

Suddenly

A figure crashed down from above like a cannonball, just barely missing Wu Xuan. The surging Qi and Blood and qi within it sent chills down the latter's spine.

Wu Xuan suddenly turned his head and saw a fierce figure crashing down from above, drawing a straight line.

If the martial artists along the way dodged in time, they would either have their tendons and bones broken or faint on the spot!

This scene sent a chill down Wu Xuan's spine. He had spoken casually earlier, but he was now extremely vigilant.

When the Dao Path manifested earlier, he failed to discern the true nature of the Yu Tunzhou.

Even if Yu Tunzhou was blinded by the power he was wielding, which is why he dared to utter such arrogant words, he was not prepared to take the lead in battle. Instead, he waited for others to test Yu Tunzhou's strength.

But at this moment, even Niu Tuntian, who is known overseas as a descendant of the Great Sage and whose physical body surpasses his contemporaries, was defeated so decisively!

Below.

Niu Tuntian stood up, shook his head, and felt dizzy, his chest tight, and his internal organs trembling...

Upon seeing this, the martial artist below, who was standing on a higher stone step, gasped in astonishment. Nothing had happened?!

After regaining his senses, Niu Tuntian looked up again at the figure that had been so close but was now so far away, his expression extremely solemn.

Luckily, Old Niu was in good health; otherwise, anyone else would have been kneeling on the ground, waiting for the Underworld to come and pick them up, even if they miraculously survived that punch...

Just now, facing the Niu Tuntian, the Yu Tunzhou stepped out, its steps becoming faster and heavier, until the last step was taken, and the "heaven and earth" in front of everyone seemed to tremble.

In Niu Tuntian's eyes at that moment, the vast Fist Intent that was suspended and did not fall was like a flood pouring down and a mountain collapsing. It was truly a mountain collapsing!

He can smash through a mountain, but the force of a mountain collapsing is completely different from the former.

At this moment, Niu Tuntian recalled that punch from just now and felt it was extremely familiar.

It had seen the same style, stance, and even momentum of the fist when it fought Yu Tunzhou in the second round, but it had an additional Fist Intent.

That's a world of difference.

This guy, whether he has Fist Intent or not, is like a completely different person!

While Niu Tuntian was the first to meet them, many people watched quietly, but some ignored the situation and climbed directly, not believing that Yu Tunzhou could "manage" so many of them at the same time!

One of the figures was the most agile, like a withered leaf swept up by the wind, silent and undetectable, traversing hundreds of meters in a few leaps, heading straight for the Dragon Gate, about to cross the Yu Tunzhou.

There was no probing, not even a glance at the Yu Tunzhou.

Yuan Liu had been concealing his strength until now, precisely to Kong Ling and the others off guard; he had no intention of getting entangled with this Human Race barbarian.

Its goal is the Dragon Gate!

However, with a slight shift in his footsteps, Yu Tunzhou blocked its path, and his Fist Intent pressed down.

Yuan Liu from Plum Mountain's expression darkened. He couldn't help but curse the stupid ox in his heart, thinking it was useless, but he didn't panic.

Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Yuan Liu's eyes suddenly turned cold. He abandoned the idea of fleeing and shouted sharply:

"I had no intention of being your enemy, yet you insist on courting death!"

A grayish-white spiritual light rose from its body, and the power of its Primordial Spirit spread out like a tide, causing the Void to distort and cave in until a grayish-white figure appeared.

It was a Six-Eared Macaque, exactly like its original form, but many times larger.

Its gray-white fur was like withered grass, and its face was arrogant. The most striking feature was its six ears on both sides, layered and thin as cicada wings. The six ears trembled slightly, as if they could hear the whole world without missing anything.

This primordial Primordial Spirit contains profound principles, having transcended the Inner Form and reached the level of the External Scenery Spirit Aspect. Simply by hovering here, it causes the Primordial Spirit of martial artists within a hundred feet to be compromised and their five senses to be deafened.

At this moment, Yuan Liu's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he manipulated the External Scenery Spirit Aspect to pounce forward suddenly.

The gray-white giant ape reached out and grabbed at the Yu Tunzhou, its five fingers spread out like five stone pillars, blotting out the sky and the sun.

Yu Tunzhou doesn't move an inch, and doesn't throw a punch.

Only his shadow seemed to come alive.

A vast, overwhelming shadow spilled out from beneath his feet, and a colossal, suffocatingly dark figure emerged from the shadow beneath Yu Tunzhou's feet.

First, its back, with jet-black scales gleaming with golden patterns.

Then came the wings; when those wings spread, the light on the entire long staircase of the Dragon Gate dimmed.

Its wings, like clouds hanging from the sky, transformed into a dark curtain, enveloping most of the long, towering Tongtian.

Then comes Pengshou.

An aura of supreme ferocity and domineering power swept across the entire area. His eyes, which looked down upon all living beings, were deathly indifferent, just like Yu Tunzhou's temperament.

That's... Kunpeng!!!

Under its wings, the originally enormous Six-Eared Macaque appeared so tiny.

"How is that possible?!"

Yuan Liu's pupils shrank sharply. It was unbelievable. How could Yu Tunzhou's Primordial Spirit Spirit Aspect so enormous!

Its expression hardened; it refused to believe that the other party's form was the real thing!

But the next moment, the Kunpeng lowered its head, and a cry fell from the sky, as if it had exploded from the Primordial Spirit of everyone.

Unruly and tyrannical, unparalleled in its might!

In an instant, the entire Tongtian staircase fell silent once more.

Peng Fei, who had been charging forward alongside Yuan Liu, relying on his own speed, had his high-speed charge abruptly halted by this cry.

A pressure emanating from his bloodline forced him to activate the Golden-Winged Great Peng Spirit Aspect to resist the impact.

This scene horrified him.

The Golden-Winged Great Peng Lineage and the Kunpeng may seem similar, but strictly speaking, they are not related by blood.

Their lineage originated from Primordial Phoenix, and the earliest Kunpeng was a primordial being. What makes Yu Tunzhou's Kunpeng so powerful as to exert pressure on him?!

Unless... unless the earliest Kunpeng has already replaced the Primordial Phoenix and taken the position of the ancestor of all birds in the world!

If Peng Fei was like this, the other unprepared martial artists were even worse off, feeling their Primordial Spirit shake, their minds go blank, and their auras become chaotic.

Even Wu Xuan, Lin Yueheng, and the others who were already locked in a fierce battle couldn't help but pause for a moment.

In a secluded corner of the long staircase, a monk silently raised his palm and gently tapped the Void.

Thump!

A deep, ancient, and resonant Buddhist chant echoed in the Void.

Like the sound of a wooden fish echoing throughout the temple.

Like a gentle spring breeze Xiyu, it soothed the disturbance caused by the cry, calming everyone's anxieties.

This is the correct method of calming the mind in Buddhist School.

But then, the expression of the Dharma Master Miedu froze, because a cold gaze passed over Liu Er and fell upon him.

Kunpeng's gaze was indifferent, as if he were looking at a dead man who had already been buried and was just waiting to be laid to rest.

From beginning to end, it didn't even glance at the Six-Eared Macaque.

The hand of the Six-Eared Macaque Spirit Aspect was half-open, suspended there with its five fingers spread, but it was frozen in place, and golden blood was seeping from its six ears.

In the cry just now, the Spirit Aspect of the Six-Eared Macaque was the first to be hit. Due to its own Dao Path, its "hearing" was too good, which caused it to take the full brunt of the sound, and cracks appeared on its body.

Fine beads of cold sweat appeared on Yuan Liu's forehead, forcing him to stop and quickly retreat.

If it were to happen again, its Spirit Aspect would likely shatter and require time to reform!

Peng Fei broke free from his shackles, seized the fleeting opportunity, and spread his golden wings behind him. His figure was like a golden rainbow traversing the sea of clouds. He had already passed the Yu Tunzhou and rushed towards the Dragon Gate at the highest point.

Suddenly, he froze.

The Fist Intent that was originally evenly distributed throughout the world suddenly gathered and fell in layers, as if the overwhelming power of mountains and seas was suppressing him alone.

He felt that every step was difficult, as if he were facing a vast ocean against the current.

Kong Ling Kong Ling, who had been observing calmly, suddenly glanced at Feng Yanleng Yan Leng, who remained inactive, and then decisively took action to buy time for Peng Fei.

Without hesitation, Kong Ling stretched out her slender hand and immediately unleashed the powerful Five-Colored Divine Light Divine Ability!

Crimson, blue, yellow, white, and black light stretched across a hundred feet of Void, the five elements flowing and endlessly regenerating, spreading out into a vast divine light canopy. Among them, the crimson light fell first, and Yu Tunzhou's figure was swept into it, disappearing briefly.

Witnessing this scene, Kong Ling's lips curled up slightly, but she quickly froze.

The next moment, Yu Tunzhou forcefully broke free from the crimson light's restraints, escaping on his own and calmly stepping out.

He moved faster than anyone else, grabbing Peng Fei by the back of the neck, and like Buddha throwing an elephant, turned and tossed him downwards.

The exchange lasted only a brief moment.

Just as Niu Tuntian got up and rushed up the steps again, he felt a black dot in front of him growing larger and larger.

Upon seeing clearly, its expression changed, and it quickly reached out to catch Peng Fei.

At this very moment.

The martial artists in the Central Plains either remained inactive or were forced to fight others. After witnessing the probing moves of several powerful figures from overseas, they all became solemn.

In a short period of time, three battles were fought, spanning from the physical body to the Primordial Spirit and then to Divine Ability. Not only were they undefeated, but each victory was an overwhelming one!

Peng Fei was not seriously injured, but his face was flushed and his body was trembling.

He suddenly looked up at the lone figure still standing high above, overlooking the Yu Tunzhou below, and said through gritted teeth, enunciating each word clearly:

"If we don't defeat him, none of us will be able to enter the Dragon Gate!"

The nonchalance that had always been in Niu Tuntian's eyes completely vanished, replaced by a calm and profound demeanor.

As Peng Fei said, they only had one option: to defeat Yu Tunzhou.

Because Yu Tunzhou had demonstrated the qualifications and confidence to say those words, giving them a reason to confront him directly.

It's like a battle flag being erected at the very top.

When this flag is truly raised and flies high in the air, everyone is left with only two choices: to flee or to fight.

They cannot escape, not only because they would become a laughing stock if word got out of today, but also because of their own pride.

The fact that they have reached the stage of manifesting the Dao Path proves that they have basically all possessed the path directly to the Dharma Aspect.

In High Antiquity, the Dharma Aspect was equivalent to Immortals and Gods.

Therefore, they only have one choice: defeat Yu Tunzhou, cut down that battle flag, and then step into the Dragon Gate with dignity.

Even sneaking across the Yu Tunzhou and stepping through the Dragon Gate becomes, at this moment, a form of "escape."

Niu Tuntian gently patted Peng Fei's shoulder, said nothing, and strode forward, his aura changing with each step.

And at the very top.

The figure in the green robe slowly descended once more.

Above him, the Kunpeng Spirit Aspect spread its wings and lowered its head, truly embodying the grandeur of the universe, where heaven and earth are but dust beneath its feathers.

At this moment.

A sword light struck first.

The source of the sword light was none other than Lin Yueheng!

He was engaged in battle with Wu Xuan, and no one dared to approach within dozens of feet of them.

Wu Xuan cultivated the Blood River True Scripture to a deep level, a vast, illusory Blood River surrounded him, with turbid waves, floating bones, and wailing souls.

With the Blood River True Scripture, he could communicate with the Netherworld Blood River Netherworld Blood River, which was hidden somewhere, and sense the myriad hellish worlds contained within it. Even borrowing only one ten-thousandth of the power of a world, he could still possess External Scenery might in every move he made.

The sword in Lin Yueheng's hand had transformed back into the plain-colored longsword that had previously hung between the river and the sky, clear as water and spotless.

That was not a physical object, but a manifestation of his Dao Path. The intent of the vast river water was all gathered into a single sword, condensing the power of heaven and earth and the river water, which actually had a potential restraint on the Blood River surrounding Wu Xuan.

This further convinced Wu Xuan that there was some kind of struggle between him and Lin Yueheng was someone he had to kill!

At that moment, Lin Yueheng suddenly flipped his wrist and unleashed a sword strike, the Sword Qi bursting forth from the tip of the sword.

At first it was just a line, but in an instant it transformed into a mighty river stretching across the sky.

The river surged and the waves piled up in countless layers. Each wave was like a Sword Qi, and each Sword Qi carried the immense power of the entire Coming Dragon River.

This sword strike was Lin Yue's full power after manifesting his Dao Path, without holding back in the slightest.

"Gentlemen--"

Lin Yueheng's voice fell from above, followed by a loud laugh.

"This guy is already so arrogant, why are you still being so polite to him?!"

"Beat!"

The Sword Qi struck instantly.

"Well said!"

Niu Tuntian his head back and laughed, his demeanor completely different from before. In just a few steps, he traversed several miles and was the first to rush to Yu Tunzhou's side.

"Yu Tunzhou, now take another punch from me, Niu!"

A punch lands!

Before the fist even arrived, the force of the punch had already compressed the air around Yu Tunzhou to almost nothing. Behind him, an Primordial White Bull stood tall and imposing, its horns piercing the sky!

The chaotic battle that Yu Tunzhou had been eagerly anticipating finally erupted.

His body surged with the Fist Intent, shattering the sword light with a single punch. Then he faced Niu Tuntian and all those who attacked him, striking in all directions without missing a single one.

"Good punch! I've never seen you use this punch before!" The white bull behind Niu Tuntian raised its head and roared, speaking in a deep voice.

This punch was unlike any of the moves Yu Tunzhou had used before.

It was neither the collapse of Ten-Thousand-Ren High Mountain nor the ethereal Mind Wanders the Heavenly River. This punch was like a Kunpeng leaping out of the Northern Darkness, spreading its wings for ninety thousand miles, traversing the four seas, domineering to the extreme, fierce to the extreme, and free to the extreme.

This is the third punch created by Yu Tunzhou to comprehend the true form of Kunpeng. It is based on the principles of vertical and horizontal movement and is bounded by the Eight Extremes. It is named:

[Ranging Freely Across the Eight Extremes!]

His Fist Intent roams freely across the eight directions of heaven and earth, reaching far and wide. It is fierce and domineering. Combined with the Eight-Nine Mysterious Art, every punch and every move mobilizes the power of heaven and earth. No matter which direction the opponent attacks from, he can break them with a single punch!

He and Niu Tuntian attacked first, exchanged dozens of blows in an instant, neither retreating nor dodging, only attacking and not defending!

With each punch, Niu Tuntian's body trembled slightly, but he noticed that Yu Tunzhou's body remained motionless. It wasn't that his fist had weakened, but rather that something inside the other's body seemed to be dissolving and neutralizing the power of his punch!

"Inner Heaven and Earth?"

Niu Tuntian suddenly looked up, his copper bell-like eyes reflecting the figure of Yu Tunzhou, and he was filled with realization.

"Are you using us to hone yourself and forge your Inner Heaven and Earth?!"

Yu Tunzhou delivered a powerful backhand punch, his mountain-like Gang Qi filling the heavens and earth.

His Inner Qi had spontaneously refined into Limitless Gang Qi) in the short span of time.

Every move, every clash, is like a hammer blow, transforming the body's Inner Qi into Limitless Gang Qi through the tender shoots of the Great Dao in the Dantian!

Yu Tunzhou unleashed a seemingly ordinary punch, yet it was incredibly powerful, sending Niu Tuntian flying backward. He then laughed loudly:

"Brother Niu, isn't that right?"

With the Dao Embryo already formed and the Dao Sprout already formed, Yu Tunzhou was only one step away from becoming an immortal embryo. Without any further hesitation, he began to set up his Inner Heaven and Earth.

Regardless of Higher Vehicle Lower Vehicle, the Inner Heaven and Earth must learn from the heavens and earth, and incorporate the wonders of the heavens and earth into its inner world.

Having already visited Xuandu Heaven and Eight Sceneries Palace, Yu Tunzhou naturally had no shortage of "objects to imitate".

He first used the Fist Intent as a sword, and a divine mountain rose from the ground, its peaks like the Kunlun veins of Kunlun, majestic and solitary, piercing straight into the blue sky!

It is indeed one of the Eight Sceneries, [Mountain Peaks Surpassing Kunlun]!

His fist stance changed, shifting from Ranging Freely Across the Eight Extremes to Ten-Thousand-Ren High Mountain. His fist was like a mountain range in the sky, heavy and steady, carrying the supreme pressure of Mountain Peaks Surpassing Kunlun. With one punch, he once again repelled Peng Fei who was attacking from the side.

"Benefactor Yu, I'm also itching to try my hand at it."

The figure of the Daoist Xuanfa appeared.

The young Daoist priest looked apologetic and sounded very embarrassed, but he showed no mercy in his attack.

He formed a mudra with his hands, his fingertips radiating spiritual light, creating an ancient and profound hand seal.

True Martial Demon-Subduing Seal!

As the hand seal took shape, the Void trembled, and a huge golden seal phantom appeared out of thin air. The words "Sweep Away Demons" were engraved on the seal's surface. With the supreme power to suppress demons in the Three Realms, it slowly pressed down on Yu Tunzhou's head.

Almost at the same instant that Daoist Xuanfa made his move, Kong Ling on the other side also moved.

The True Martial Demon-Subduing Seal pressed down from above, as heavy as a mountain;

Five-Colored Divine Light swept in from the side, brushing away everything in its path.

Furthermore, Yuan Liu moved with ghostly speed, quietly approaching Yu Tunzhou from the right. Having learned from his previous experience, he no longer rashly confronted Yu Tunzhou with his Primordial Spirit.

It possesses the bloodline of the Six Ears and is also skilled in the art of physical combat. In addition, it comes from Plum Mountain and has inherited the incomplete Eight-Nine Mysterious Art, which is a supreme level of inheritance. If it weren't incomplete, that stupid ox would have to step aside for it!

The three top experts attacked simultaneously, forming a perfect pincer movement that sealed off all of Yu Tunzhou's escape routes.

Faced with this devastating double attack, Yu Tunzhou showed no sign of apprehension; instead, he burst into loud laughter:

"Good timing!"

Instead of retreating, he advanced, his fist stance rising, his Fist Intent spreading throughout Bajiquan, striking in all directions.

With a single punch, the Zhenwu Seal inscribed with the words "Demon Slayer" began to crumble.

Yuan Liu, attacking from the right, struck Yu Tunzhou in the chest with a palm strike, but felt as if he had struck a sacred mountain rather than flesh and blood.

It finally understood the difficulty of Niu Tuntian, but it was too late.

The next moment, its expression changed as it saw a layer of golden light permeating the texture of the Yu Tunzhou, which had not shattered under its palm strike.

This light... it seems so familiar?

In the blink of an eye, Yu Tunzhou had already sent it flying with a single punch.

Even with its six-eared body, the bones and tendons of the creature could not help but crack and snap as they broke.

Kong Ling coldly looked upwards.

The Kunpeng Spirit Aspect a claw, blocking her Five-Colored Divine Light.

Only you have Spirit Aspect?

Kong Ling snorted coldly. She refused to believe that her peacock form would lose to the other party's Kunpeng!

"Get out of here!"

Nine suns soared into the sky, transforming into the tenth great sun, hanging overhead in the Huang Tian.

He cleared a path with his own body, showing no intention of joining forces with the others, and radiating heat comparable to the sun.

His fierce, masculine energy and Blood Qi were overwhelming. Unlike Niu Tuntian's "gentleness," he slapped Yuan Liu, who was flying backward, away with one palm, and then forced back Kong Ling, who was blocking his way.

Kong Ling, who had been forced back, looked annoyed and was about to make a move when her expression suddenly changed, and her five-colored dress showed signs of spontaneous combustion.

Centered on Huang Tian, a True Yang Domain spread out, forming its own little world, regarding all laws and things around it as "fuel" that could be melted and devoured.

Even the stone path beneath their feet bore faint traces of burning.

Kong Ling, who was closest, even sensed an unnamed fire surging within his Primordial Spirit, causing him to feel dizzy, lightheaded, and flushed.

This is... Immortals and Gods intervention!

She quickly retreated, creating distance between herself and the enemy.

Wherever Huang Tian goes, there are only himself and his enemies.

"Yu Tunzhou!"

Huang Tian laughed loudly, his voice like thunder.

"My master ordered me to come and see if you are still the same person you were in the grotto-heaven!"

A Golden Crow leaped into the sky, confronting the Kunpeng before it. Despite being several sizes smaller, it showed no fear whatsoever, truly deserving of its former title as the Primordial Demon Emperor.

A glint of light flashed in Yu Tunzhou's eyes.

"Come!"

With a single step, his already unleashed Fist Intent reached its peak, surging like oil on a raging fire. His clothes fluttered wildly as he lunged forward, attacking Huang Tian.

The two clashed head-on, Yu Tunzhou felt flames raging both inside and outside his body, exceeding the level he could suppress through his Unity of Heaven and Celestial Person.

This is a method of Dharma Aspect practice!

He activated the Dao Sprout within his Dantian, and the Wuji intent spread out, extinguishing the inner fire.

"Take this punch!"

With a roar, an invisible Daoist aura permeated Yu Tunzhou's body, and his fist manifested Primordial Unity Wuji chaos, dark and devoid of light, swallowing everything and forcefully breaking through the True Yang field.

Ta-da!

Huang Tian was struck squarely in the chest by this punch. The force was so great that he staggered back several steps, his Qi and Blood churning violently, and a metallic taste rushed to his throat.

The battle has reached this point.

The martial artists from all sides, positioned at the lower part of this long staircase, had ample time to reach Yu Tunzhou.

But the Void seemed to be churning, with the energy and aftershocks of the battle between the people above sweeping in all directions. Facing these aftershocks was like an indirect confrontation with the people above.

Only now did they realize how absurd and ridiculous their previous plan to besiege them had been.

All they could do was retreat, keep retreating.

From ten zhang, a hundred zhang...

Until it gradually stops.

in.

Xie Linxue's face flushed red. With the help of the Spirit Rhinoceros Sword, he also possessed the combat power of External Scenery cultivator. He did not believe that he was no match for these people.

Spirit Rhinoceros Sword was drawn, its Sword Intent condensed into a phantom sword curtain around him, with countless sword shadows that made it difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion!

However...

Huang Tian, who was knocked down by Yu Tunzhou's punch, was furious. He pushed his True Yang Domain to its limit, igniting all the laws around him.

This is a supernatural Divine Ability at the Dharma Aspect form level, yet he managed to integrate it into the field.

Even Yu Tunzhou would not want to fight this fellow at close range for long, and has already repelled him more than ten times.

However, this guy's physical body is second only to Niu Tuntian, and his skin is really tough and thick.

Xie Linxue unleashed her full power to ascend with her sword, only to collide with Huang Tian, who had been knocked down.

Huang Tian ignored Xie Linxue, his eyes only on Yu Tunzhou. He strode past Xie Linxue, and all the sword light "burned" in an instant, turning into ashes.

This scene left Xie Linxue dazed.

He had a brief encounter with Huang Tian in the Dragon Palace, but it was nothing like the despair he felt now.

The next moment, Xie Linxue's face turned pale, and the Spirit Rhinoceros Sword in her hand was also ignited, with a corner melting!

"Amitabha."

The Dharma Master Jiese, clasped his hands together and chanted a prayer to the Buddha of Miedu who had been facing him for so long. Finally, his hands were itching to join the battle.

Miedu laughed heartily and was the first to join the battle.

"Fellow benefactor, come and experience the Little Tathagata Divine Palm of my Little Thunderclap Temple!"

Yu Tunzhou punched Huang Tian back again, then looked up and laughed loudly, "You Buddhist lineage, you like to add 'little' to everything? That's really not enough! You all come at me now, let's see if you can do anything to me today!"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding attackers all snorted coldly.

"You scoundrel, do you really think you're invincible here?"

Kong Ling shouted, finally unleashing his full power. The Peacock Spirit Aspect appeared behind him, its tail feathers unfurling as the true Five-Colored Divine Light Great Divine Ability swept down.

In a battlefield below.

Deng Canglan looked helpless as Jin Buxi pointed his magic sword directly at his brow.

"Brother Jin," he said earnestly, trying to persuade the man to give up the fight, "Look how arrogant that fellow is, why don't you let me go and put a stop to his arrogance?"

Jin Buxi did not answer, his eyes were cold, and his magic sword moved even faster.

Deng Canglan sighed, "Then I have no choice but to offend you. I really don't want to miss this battle... Blame it on Young Hero Yu!"

At this moment, among the top experts, besides Deng Canglan, there are only two figures, one in red and one in white, who have not yet joined the battle.

Feng Yanleng Leng's thin lips were slightly pursed, his eyes gleaming as he stared intently at Yu Tunzhou, who remained unrestrained despite being surrounded by the crowd.

Yu Tunzhou's Fist Intent roamed freely across the eight extremes. Surrounded by enemies, he resembled the Kunpeng once floated and sank in the ancient world.

Stretching across the clouds, suddenly appearing from the deep sea!

With the strength of three thousand, we rise up; with the speed of ninety thousand, we march forth!

With each punch, a top expert was swept away.

From beginning to end.

He stood at the very top of this long staircase.

Behind him, at the end of the long staircase, stood the Eternal Dragon Gate, standing silently.

Yet, no one was able to enter from beginning to end.

It's like one man holding the pass.

An Ruyu stood quietly, like a white lotus blooming in the Void.

She gazed at the figure in the blue robe who stood tall in the arena, her mind slightly lost in thought.

Since High Antiquity times, only two overlords have emerged in this world. One is the Peerless Imperial Lord unified the Central Plains four thousand years ago, destroyed countless lineages, caused heavy losses to both Daoism and Buddhism, and was eventually removed from the history books.

The other is Lu Daolin, the Martial Ancestor carried on the legacy of martial arts a thousand years ago and truly established the Martial Dao. It is said that at the height of his Human Cauldron, he was only one step away from the realm above Immortals and Gods.

To reach this level in the Age of Dharma Decline, before the Great Dao was even opened, is simply inconceivable, tantamount to defying the heavens. If this person had been born a few thousand years earlier, not only the Central Plains, but the entire world within his sight would have been transformed.

Countless beings, even those beyond the realm of Immortals and Gods, would have to rely on its influence to return...

According to the joint prophecy of the old mothers, three overlords will appear after the High Antiquity.

Each one will dominate an era, becoming the only sun in the world.

"I wasn't satisfied."

The second wondrous scene within Yu Tunzhou's body had been sculpted to its fullest extent, but it was still missing the final stroke.

The Dao Sprout Immortal Embryo in the Dantian only need final tempering before it can sprout and know "spring"!

At this very moment.

His surroundings were cleared, leaving him temporarily without any adversaries.

He deliberately withdrew his Fist Intent and slowly walked down to face the group of formidable enemies.

One step, two steps, three steps.

Neither too fast nor too slow, neither too heavy nor too light

Then, smiling, he poured some hot oil on everyone, hoping they would work even harder and stop holding back.

"Today, Dragon Gate is truly a place where a hundred flowers bloom."

These words carried a touch of emotion, as if praising everyone in front of him, each one deserving of his serious attention, which made even the panting Niu Tuntian raise his head.

"Unfortunately..."

Someone bared their fangs and smiled.

"When my flower blooms, all other flowers wither."
