Lying Low in the Martial World to Become a Saint Chapter 304 - 156: Showdown

As their voices fell, the two figures moved in unison, landing on the vast arena below in an instant.

Instantly, a dead silence fell before the gates of the Wutai Sect. You could hear a pin drop.

All the onlookers—be they disciples of the Four Great Sects, heroic figures of the Jianghu, representatives from the Court, or spies from various factions—held their breath, their hearts pounding. Their eyes were locked on the two figures in the arena, who represented the pinnacle of Cultivation in Yunlin Prefecture.

A duel between Astral Force masters, one that would decide the future of the Yunlin Martial Arts world, was about to erupt!

Commander Zhao’s brow furrowed. He spoke in a low voice to the young man beside him, "Watch this fight closely. Don’t miss a single detail."

The youth nodded gravely. Then, the two Astral Force masters on the high platform began their duel.

Leng Qianqiu struck first. She seed to transform into a flash of lightning, the sound of thunder exploding in the ears of the crowd as a crushing pressure spread out. It was the Thousand Illusion Cloud Thunder Palm.

She had clearly cultivated the Thousand Illusion Cloud Thunder Palm to the Extre Realm. As her Palm Seal descended, it carried a surging Thunderous Montum.

Fast!

Too fast!

Aside from the other Astral Force masters present, few could clearly see her movents. Even Chen Qing could barely make out an afterimage.

Geng tal True Gang flowed within He Yuzhou’s body. He threw a punch, instantly engulfing the lightning flash before him.

BOOM!

The entire arena shuddered. Rings of Gang Qi expanded outward, wave after wave surging forth like a sudden clap of thunder.

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

Rings of Gang Qi spread out in all directions like tidal waves.

The disciples standing closer felt a powerful gust of wind wash over them, whipping their clothes about and making it hard to even open their eyes. It was accompanied by a temporary ringing in their ears.

"What astonishing power!"

Chen Qing was inwardly shaken by the sight.

If the True Qi of the Embracing Pill Force realm was like a piece of wood, then True Astral was like a block of iron—harder and far more solid.

Leng Qianqiu let out a sharp cry. Her voice bood like thunder from the heavens, carrying the oppressive might of her Thunderous Montum as it rolled forward. "He Yuzhou, you haven’t disappointed after all."

He Yuzhou replied expressionlessly, "The honor is all mine."

The two stared at each other from a distance. The surface of the nearby lake began to churn, the water roiling as it was whipped into massive waves.

The roaring sound echoed like thunder, shaking one’s Heart and Spirit.

Then, without another word, the air seed to freeze. Chen Qing stared intently at the two of them, as if trying to discern sothing from Leng Qianqiu’s technique.

He Yuzhou attacked again. With a lift of his palm, the Geng tal True Gang within him surged forth before he unleashed a vicious punch.

BZZT!

BZZT!

As the punch flew, the very air began to tremble and hum.

Vajra Armor-Breaking Fist!

A Palm Seal descended from above, as if a mountain were toppling, causing the arena floor to crack and splinter for yards at a ti.

Evidently, the Sect Leader had also cultivated his Vajra Armor-Breaking Fist to the level of ’Montum’.

"So strong!"

Even the expressions of the Wutai Sect’s Deans and Elders changed slightly at the sight.

Leng Qianqiu’s gaze was frigid. She extended a palm, and a blast of Langyue True Astral shot forth.

BOOM—!

This Palm Seal was unbelievably fast, covering several yards in an instant and transforming into a crashing bolt of lightning.

Seeing the Palm Seal approach, He Yuzhou advanced instead of retreating, a cold glint appearing in his eyes.

He threw another punch forward.

BOOM—!

The surrounding True Astral surged violently, accompanied by an incomparably sharp shriek.

The nearby experts hurriedly used their Qi Force to block their ears. The ’Sound Wave’ wasn’t aid at them, but the residual power alone was enough to make them miserable.

Disciples who hadn’t reached the Embracing Pill Force realm retreated again and again, their faces pale and heads ringing. They temporarily lost their hearing.

Seeing this, Leng Qianqiu’s left hand seed to frost over as she channeled her Cold Ice True Gang and struck viciously.

SHOOOM—!

At the sa ti, her Langyue True Astral and Cold Ice True Gang manifested together, releasing a shocking aura and power.

"So this is Leng Qianqiu’s true strength!?"

"Langyue True Astral and Cold Ice True Gang!"

"To cultivate two Heart thods at the sa ti... It’s unbelievable."

...

The mbers of the Wutai Sect were all deeply shaken by this sight.

The reason Leng Qianqiu was hailed as one of Yunlin’s top masters was precisely because she cultivated both Langyue True Astral and Cold Ice True Gang simultaneously.

Now that both types of True Astral had erupted, she instantly gained the upper hand in terms of sheer power.

KRA-KA-KA—!

Before everyone’s horrified eyes, the two forms of True Astral rged into one and bore down viciously on He Yuzhou.

His Fist Force could no longer withstand the terrifying pressure and shattered in an instant. The residual energy continued to plumt down fiercely.

"Is Sect Leader He going to lose?" Shi Ziyi whispered.

"Don’t be so anxious."

Shi Kaishan said calmly, "He Yuzhou has presided over the Wutai Sect for over twenty years. It’s not that simple. It’s still too early to say who will erge victorious."

Countless experts had gathered around. The duel between these two masters would determine the future direction of the Yunlin Martial World, and it captivated everyone’s hearts.

’Fight. The more viciously you fight, the better.’

In the distance, a cold smile appeared on the lips of the Liu Family’s Great Tributor as he watched the scene.

After the fall of the Zheng Family, the Liu Family’s power had grown considerably. They had beco the sole dominant force in the Yunlin Comrce Association and recruited many experts. But taking another step forward was incredibly difficult—unless sothing happened to the Four Great Sects.

Just then, He Yuzhou’s Geng tal True Gang erupted with the brilliance of a blinding sun.

BOOM!

The two attacks collided with an earth-shattering sound, and both combatants were forced back several steps.

Many of the Astral Force masters watching this frowned deeply.

Shi Kaishan was inwardly astonished. ’As expected of the Canglang Fisherman. The purity of his True Astral is unbelievable.’

Increasing the purity of one’s True Astral is extrely difficult. It’s usually done by accumulating power after failing to break through a bottleneck, or by consuming top-tier Treasure dicine or Treasure Fish. He Yuzhou was clearly the latter case. And the one thing that could improve the purity of True Astral was, without a doubt, Earth Core Milk.
