Chapter 178 - Thirty One Against Five

178: Chapter Thirty: One Against Five 178: Chapter Thirty: One Against Five No one dares turn their back to the arrows of Li Longchuan.Not even Wang Yi Wu, the strong, could be an exception.

As he turned around, his fist was already in motion.

And in the very instant his fist moved, the arrow had arrived.

This was an arrow of Qi.

At the slightest twitch of Qi, the arrow would release; when the Qi flowed, vulnerabilities would emerge.

It seemed as if an arrow, trailing a long tail of white luminescence, clashed against Wang Yi Wu’s fist.

The air roared violently, the fiery wind ostentatious.

Wang Yi Wu advanced, his fist countering the arrow, striding forward!

“Since you are so eager for death, I shall fulfill your wish first!”

On the battlefield, no one could let the people of the Shimen Li Family do as they pleased.

The longer the time was dragged out, the more they could grasp the flaws.

This was a common understanding ever since the progenitor of the Li Family shattered Xiong City with ten arrows.

Therefore, once Li Longchuan decided to take action, he should be the first to kill.

The Qi arrow, countered and rebounding, Wang Yi Wu advanced like a meteor, closing the distance in an instant.

“Vain thoughts of distant mountains and rivers!”

Xu Xiang Qian used his fingers as a brush, swiftly tracing dragons and snakes in the air.

His literary spirit soared to the clouds, rising before Wang Yi Wu.

It made it seem as though he and Li Longchuan, despite being mere inches apart, were as distant as mountains and rivers.

“Fine verse,” Wang Yi Wu sighed lightly, “what a pity it is not of your own talent!”

His left hand spread wide, he grasped the literary spirit of mountains and rivers.

It was as though he picked up a piece of canvas, creasing the painted mountains and rivers.

“Watch as I take pity on the man before me!”

His right fist tightened, shattering the Qi arrow completely, and once more thundered towards Li Longchuan’s face.

Such boldness!

But countless vines and serpents emerged from the ground, twisting before his fist.

With the intervention of Xu Xiang Qian, Jiang Wang’s vine barrier was also ready.

Above the barrier, buds blossomed, revealing gaping maws, the sudden appearance of the Eating Flower!

Throughout this long and arduous journey, Jiang Wang had not been idle.

His Dao Technique became more refined, and he began to develop his own understanding.

On top of the existing vine barrier, he completed a Dao Technique graft.

He integrated the Eating Flower into the vine barrier, mixing defense with attack, enhancing this Dao Technique independently.

And Zhong Xuan Sheng rose with determination.

“What are you waiting for?

If you don’t kill him now, we will all perish!”

Even having ascended from the Zhoutian Environment to the Tongtian Environment, the Secret Technique’s instant casting state of rapid release could not last forever.

So even with an injured body, he must unleash his strongest burst in this most powerful state.

Earth spikes, Wind Blades, vine serpents, golden light arrows.

Four Dao Techniques, empowered by Heavy Technique, roared towards Wang Yi Wu’s back.

At the same moment, Zhang Song discarded his timidity and lifted his head, his gaze sharp as a blade.

But merely glancing at Wang Yi Wu felt like needles on one’s back!

Wang Yi Wu was too strong, he could no longer pretend otherwise.

All present had made their attacks, and Li Longchuan, who confronted Wang Yi Wu directly, was no exception.

He stood tall and formidable, a warrior without equal.

Facing the avalanche-like momentum of Wang Yi Wu, yet his expression remained unchanged.

When Mount Tai collapses before him, his face is still as calm as a flat lake.

In the heart of the lake, an arrow hides.

Water benefits all things without contention, thus the supreme good is like water.

But when water contends, it will surely sweep across the human world!

The arrow shot forth from between his brows, its force like a surging flood.

This was an arrow of Momentum.

The fifty who entered the Heavenly Abode Secret Land could all be considered elite powerhouses below the Ascending Dragon Realm.

And all those present were selected from among those fifty, the strong among the strong, emerging victorious.

They could represent the pinnacle of power among those at the level of the Tongtian Environment.

A concerted assault by these five individuals would be too much for even an ordinary powerhouse of the Ascending Dragon Realm to withstand.

Yet Wang Yi Wu showed no intention of dodging the battle, moving at a visually constant speed, he clenched his fist, raised it, and delivered a punch!

Five fists!

It was as if five fists had appeared simultaneously!

But in reality, it was just the afterimage of fists moving too swiftly.

And because of these afterimages, his punching pattern seemed clear and even slowed down.

Wang Yi Wu, almost at the same time, sequentially delivered five punches.

And visually, those five punches simultaneously exploded.

Without Me, Without Victory.

Invincible Without Presence.

Power splitting mountains and rivers as though they were nothing, killing intent like a twister.

The Selfless Murderous Fist!

Wang Yiwu saw Li Longchuan as the prime target for elimination, and correspondingly, Li Longchuan became the one whom everyone else was set on saving.

Tactics are like warfare.

Target the enemy’s must-save, and the battlefield I command, the victory or defeat I decide!

At that moment, Wang Yiwu put forth all his effort, unloading the strongest Selfless Murderous Fist, intent on deciding the outcome once and for all.

Boom!

Deafening.

In fact, there were five blasts that were almost simultaneous, compounding into one.

Li Longchuan retreated three steps, a sweetness lingering in his throat.

Zhongxuan Sheng sat down hard on the ground, blood surging like it was desperate to escape his body.

There were streaks of blood running down the corners of Zhang Song’s eyes.

Xu Xiangqian’s right index finger was twisted, already broken.

Jiang Wang was sent flying even farther, his hand hanging off the stone platform, pulling himself back up to avoid plunging into the abyss.

This was the strength of Wang Yiwu.

In a single clash, all five were wounded!

No wonder he demanded Zhongxuan Sheng concede right outside Moon Lake.

No wonder he came striding over mountains, landing with demands for everyone to hand over the Azure Dragon’s Horn.

No wonder he was so arrogant, for he had the capital for such arrogance.

But what surprised Wang Yiwu the most in this clash wasn’t Li Longchuan or Zhongxuan Sheng, but that timid young man he had at first failed to notice at all.

His eagle eyes shifted, staring directly over.

“You’re not Zhang Song.

The Feng Xian of the Zhang Aristocratic Family doesn’t have such Pupil Skill!”

Even given the current situation, this revelation was enough to shock Xu Xiangqian.

That wretched young man from a fallen aristocratic family, he isn’t the genuine article?

His teacher once wrote poetry lamenting the Feng Xian of the Zhang Aristocratic Family’s plight, and he himself had spoken with righteous indignation by Moon Lake.

Yet, the person who showed up here was an imposter?

“Does it really matter?” At this moment, there was no trace of timidity on Zhang Song’s face.

He used a finger to gently wipe away the blood trickling from the corner of his eye.

With just a faint smile, all traces of his youthful naivety vanished.

“I just wanted to sneak my way through to gain a Divine Skill, slowly regaining the strength I lost.

We’re at the final stretch, and here you are, going mad.”

“Wang Yiwu, you should know that…

the killer is always meant to be killed!”

As his words fell, his eyes flared with rage and his hair flew wildly!

It was impossible to see what happened.

Roar!

There was only the sound of a tiger’s roar.

Above Wang Yiwu’s head,

A fleeting shadow of a Tiger Talisman flashed by.

Wang Yiwu remained motionless, but Zhang Song closed his eyes and toppled backward, headfirst.

“So you’re willing to expend the life-saving Tiger Talisman bestowed upon you by the military god,” Zhongxuan Sheng thought with surprise, but his lips curled into a sneer, “You truly are deeply loyal to Xuan Zun!”

What shocked him was not just that Zhang Song could push Wang Yiwu this far.

What was even more shocking was Wang Yiwu’s willingness to go to such lengths.

Zhang Song’s Pupil Skill attack might not have been unsurvivable for Wang Yiwu, but resisting it head-on would surely lead to injury.

Even he couldn’t be so confident to claim victory over five such opponents in an imperfect state.

So, he resolutely used the life-saving Tiger Talisman gifted by Jiang Mengxiong of the Great Qi military god, just to ensure an absolute victory, which showed the firmness of his killing intent.

For Xuan Zun, what would Wang Yiwu not dare to do?

To Xu Xiangqian and Jiang Wang, individuals from foreign lands, it might not matter much, but Li Longchuan’s eyebrows knitted tightly together, betraying his inner turmoil.

“One must first regard oneself lightly before he can be taken lightly by the world!”

Wang Yiwu chose not to push Zhang Song to the brink but instead turned suddenly, swinging his fist directly at Zhongxuan Sheng: “Let’s see what qualifications you have to contend with Xuan Zun!”

He was clearly enraged beyond measure.

Better to cherish the person right in front of you.” originates from Yan Shu’s “Huan Xi Sha.”
