WHOOSH!
Lin Mu's words imdiately stirred up towering waves on Dongting Lake.
Asking Wen Lie to co down and et his death? This Lin Wudi, such audacity!
"Lin Wudi, you're courting death!"
Indeed, Wen Lie was furious!
BOOM!
With a single leap, Wen Lie launched himself from Yueyang Tower. His towering, iron-like figure dove like a bomb, straight toward Lin Mu on the lake's surface. A violent surge of his Internal Energy erupted thunderously.
All gazes imdiately focused on Wen Lie, their eyes filled with fear.
"Wen Lie's aura is terrifying. His fist intent has clearly reached a subli level. He must be in the Transformative Realm, right?"
"Correct. Wen Lie, just as his na implies, is unbridled and fierce. It's just hard to say whether he's stronger or weaker than Lin Wudi."
"Although Wen Lie is strong, his opponent is Lin Wudi! This ruthless man's combat power is renowned throughout history—simply terrifying!"
Lin Mu slightly tilted his head, looking at Wen Lie with a trace of surprise in his eyes. Wen Lie, the Sect Leader of the Eight Extres Gate, ranked twenty-fourth on the Sky Ranking... Interesting.
"Dad, save ! Save !" Wen Hao, still in Lin Mu's grasp, started struggling excitedly and calling for help.
As his cries faded, Wen Lie, now suspended mid-air, fixed his sharp gaze on Lin Mu and roared, "Lin Wudi, release my son at once, or I will kill you!"
"Want to save him?" Lin Mu scoffed. "On what grounds?"
"You..." Wen Lie hadn't expected Lin Mu to be so insolent.
"You are a Grandmaster, after all. Such behavior degrades your status!" Wen Lie said coldly.
"Oh, so you realize I'm a Grandmaster, too?" Lin Mu grinned. "Then your son shouldn't have provoked , and you especially shouldn't have challenged ."
"Bullshit!" Wen Hao yelled. "You, Lin! Let go! Otherwise, my father will kill you right now!"
"It seems you still don't understand the principle that a Grandmaster must not be insulted," Lin Mu's mouth curled into a smirk. "Since that's the case, then open your dog eyes wide and watch how I kill your father!"
As he finished speaking, Lin Mu stamped his foot on the surface of the lake.
BOOM!
A ferocious surge of energy instantly erupted from beneath Wen Lie's feet. Wen Lie's expression tightened, and he abruptly moved, dodging the column of water that shot upward.
THUD!
With a heavy impact, the lake's surface exploded, sending a massive plu of water into the air.
「On Yueyang Tower.」
The crowd gasped. They hadn't expected Lin Wudi to be so domineering as to strike without another word!
"Lin Wudi, do you really think you're invincible? I, Wen Lie, can kill you as easily as flipping my hand!" Wen Lie leaped up, his voice shaking the entire area. "Lin Wudi, face your doom!"
Wen Lie raised his hands and abruptly threw a punch.
RUMBLE!
That punch was imbued with frenzied Internal Energy. It made the lake's surface burst apart, and the endless mist ford into a raging dragon that roared as it charged toward Lin Mu.
"re parlor tricks." Lin Mu laughed heartily, lifting his right hand and making a light gesture.
"Break!"
As the word left his lips, the massive, raging dragon froze in mid-air. Following the sacred sound from Lin Mu's mouth, it suddenly exploded.
Lin Mu remained motionless, standing upon the lake with one hand behind his back, his clothes fluttering in the wind.
"Wen Lie, it seems your title as a Grandmaster isn't so impressive after all."
「On Dongting Lake.」
Lin Mu and Wen Lie stood upon the water, a hundred ters apart. One was shrouded in a violent aura, while the other showed no sign of power at all. And yet, the skill Lin Mu had displayed by nullifying Wen Lie's punch with a single hand was simply unfathomable.
「On Yueyang Tower.」
The spectators' expressions changed, their faces growing serious.
"I never expected Lin Wudi to be this powerful. He is truly a heaven-sent genius," Master Zhang exhaled a turbid breath, his heart racing.
"Master Zhang, you speak too soon. Grandmaster Wen is no ordinary man. No matter how strong Lin Wudi is, how could he possibly be Grandmaster Wen's match!"
The spectators on Yueyang Tower were all experts Wen Lie had invited to watch, so they naturally understood this was no simple affair. anwhile, the martial artists watching from other locations grew even more excited by the scene. From farther away, droves of people continued to rush over, eager to witness the battle with their own eyes.
To witness a battle between two Grandmasters in my lifeti... I can die without regrets!
"After this battle, regardless of whether Lin Wudi wins or loses, his na will once again shake the world!"
「On Yueyang Tower.」
A woman with an excited expression eagerly asked, "Master, who do you think will win this battle?"
Her master was Qing Ni, the Sect Leader of the Ei Sect. While not yet a Grandmaster, she was not far from it. But at that mont, Master Qing Ni's face was also flushed as she stared at the lake in astonishnt.
"Ling Yun, this battle is too profound, too advanced. Even I cannot see through it," Qing Ni said, a bitter smile on her face.
"What?" Ling Yun clutched her chest. "Even you can't tell, Master?"
Her beautiful eyes blinked as she stared at the unmoving figure of the young man on the lake's surface.
***
「On Dongting Lake.」
"Fight!" Wen Lie let out a thunderous shout, and a violent torrent of Internal Energy instantly erupted from his body. With him at the center, the energy roared wildly in all directions. Wherever it passed, it seed to split the entire surface of the lake in two.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Countless massive waves crisscrossed the sky!
"Eight Extres Stabilizing the Universe!" Wen Lie unleashed a punch!
BOOM!
The air exploded. An imnsely potent force burst forth from his fist, infusing every droplet of lake water and instantly locking onto Lin Mu. In that mont, the vast Dongting Lake seed to be sealed by innurable streams of fist energy.
Qi Locks Heaven and Earth!
Fist Defines the Universe!
"You want to compete with fists against ?" A mocking smile appeared on Lin Mu's lips. Instead of retreating, he advanced, unhesitatingly throwing a punch of his own.
"Slaying Gods and Demons and Punishing Immortals' Twelve Forms!"
"Third Form—Deicide Fist!"
With one punch, the colors of heaven and earth changed.
CRACK!
With a crisp snap, the force of Wen Lie's technique was instantly broken. Lin Mu's punch, however, continued unabated, appearing before Wen Lie in an instant as his fist descended.
BANG!
Their fists collided, and the resulting overwhelming shockwave swept out in all directions.
Wen Lie violently spat out a mouthful of blood as his body was sent flying backward, his eyes wide with shock.
He was actually no match for Lin Mu! He'd lost the very first exchange. He had thought Lin Wudi was all hype, but seeing him today, his reputation was clearly well-deserved!
As the two had clashed, their energies collided, causing the lake's surface to thunder. Waves tens of ters high surged into the sky. The entirety of Dongting Lake churned, its violent currents crashing against the shores.
BOOM!
Those on Yueyang Tower felt an unparalleled force sweep toward them, causing the entire structure to shake violently.
Mist rose, and the tower trembled!
Many spectators were blown away by this terrifying force. The experts seated on Yueyang Tower were powerful figures in their own right, but at that mont, even they felt their bodies sway, and they could barely remain standing.
Everyone turned pale with horror.
So this is the terror of a Grandmaster!
At this mont, a particular poem seed especially fitting:
In August, the lake water is level,
Enveloping the void, blending with the great void.
Vapors steam the Cloud Dream Marsh,
And its waves shake Yueyang City
