Chapter 519: Chapter 195: Demon Nest (Part 2)

“Make a move, I can let you take three strikes first.”

Yue Chengzhi said calmly, “As long as you can defeat me, the 53rd place on the Hidden Dragon List is yours to take.”

“No need.”

“Against you, I’ll only need three moves.”

Lin Zheyu retorted, seeing Yue Chengzhi’s arrogant demeanor.

Gu Ye, who was standing with an unfamiliar man watching the spectacle, showed a satisfied expression upon hearing Lin Zheyu’s reply.

Haha, as expected of a Martial Artist who cultivates the Tyrannical True Intent, this domineering aura, I like it!

“Your junior brother is quite arrogant!”

The man beside Gu Ye chuckled.

He was Yue Chengzhi’s senior brother, and the two had come together for a mission.

Passing by the Bitao Pavilion, they encountered Chen Ding. Under Chen Ding’s praise of Lin Zheyu, and given the history between their masters, Yue Chengzhi decided to challenge Lin Zheyu.

“Your junior brother is no different, both are the same.”

“The master can’t win, so the disciple steps up to challenge, the 53rd challenges the 78th on the Hidden Dragon List. You all truly dare to do it.”

Gu Ye glanced sideways at the man, mocking him.

“Rankings are just references, real strength is shown through combat.”

“Recently, Lin Junior Brother has been in the spotlight, with some claiming he has the potential of a Dao Seeker. In a few years, he might compete for the Dao Seeker position against the geniuses of the main sect.”

Kong Bo said with a smile.

“Dao Seeker?”

“What’s going on, Lin Junior Brother is only 78th on the Hidden Dragon List, how could there be rumors of him having the potential of a Dao Seeker?” Gu Ye frowned.

She hadn’t heard such rumors in Wuling City, but they had already spread from the Broken Star Pavilion side, which was unusual.

“That I don’t know.”

“But you’d better be careful.”

“He was exceptionally recruited into Bitao Pavilion, and in less than a year, he already has the strength of someone in the top 60 on the Hidden Dragon List. It’s hard not to attract attention.”

Kong Bo said lightly.

As the two chatted, the battle had already begun.

“Hmph, then let me see your strength!”

Yue Chengzhi snorted coldly, his muscles swelled and expanded, and a terrifying aura spread out.

The eight pavilions of the Infinite Sect, each specializing in different Cultivation Techniques.

Bitao Pavilion specializes in the Infinite Jade Waves True Skill, which can increase a Martial Artist’s capacity for Qi Blood. Upon advancing to Transforming Force, the True Strength within is as vast and continuous as waves.

The Broken Star Pavilion, on the other hand, specializes in strength.

Disciples of the Broken Star Pavilion possess incredibly terrifying strength, reputedly able to shatter stars.

Yue Chengzhi took a step forward, and the stone slabs paved with bricks beneath his feet shattered instantly.

With a booming sound, he charged toward Lin Zheyu with terrifying speed.

Lin Zheyu remained calm, without any aura emanating from him.

His movements seemed exceptionally slow, but when Yue Chengzhi arrived in front of him, he had already set up the Great Power Vajra Fist stance.

Bang!

The collision of fists produced a dull thud.

The moment the fists touched, the confidence in Yue Chengzhi’s eyes vanished, replaced by a look of shock.

His full-strength punch felt as if it hit a mountain cast in molten iron, unable to shake his opponent in the slightest.

Boom boom boom—

Instead, the enormous force transmitted through his fist made him stagger back several steps.

Before Yue Chengzhi could regain his stance, a terrifying storm of energy struck again, and Lin Zheyu’s figure rapidly expanded in his sight.

Boom boom!

The Great Power Vajra Fist struck, and Yue Chengzhi hastily crossed his arms to block.

The immense force once again sent him flying.

Lin Zheyu tapped his toes lightly, pursuing at an even faster speed, delivering a punch from above.

Yue Chengzhi’s body, which was sent flying, crashed down, shattering the stone bricks into powder and leaving a massive crater in the ground.

The surrounding disciples watching were stunned!

Kong Bo was stunned!

Gu Ye was stunned!

Even Men Liuyuan, standing at a distance and leisurely watching, couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

“Well, now I believe Lin Junior Brother truly has the potential to become a Dao Seeker.”

Kong Bo blinked, unable to help but remark.

“I believe it too.”

“Did Yue Chengzhi really make it to 53rd on the Hidden Dragon List with his own strength?”

“Are you sure he wasn’t holding back just now?”

Gu Ye said incredulously.

She knew Yue Chengzhi wasn’t holding back.

She asked only because it was too astonishing.

Gu Ye knew Lin Zheyu’s strength was formidable, perhaps not even weaker than Yue Chengzhi.

She believed that if Lin Junior Brother used his adept Lightweight Skill in a fight against Yue Chengzhi, he would have a decent chance of winning.

But to win this fast!

Too fast to be believed.

“My apologies!”

Lin Zheyu said.

He reached out and helped the dazed Yue Chengzhi up from the ground.

“What cultivation technique did you just use?”

Yue Chengzhi exhaled deeply to calm himself and asked.

“Great Power Vajra Fist,” Lin Zheyu replied.

“Did you reach the Bone Marrow Refining Realm through the Nine Transformations of Qi and Blood?”

“Otherwise, how could your strength surpass mine!”

Yue Chengzhi asked incredulously.

He had reached the Bone Marrow Refining Realm through the Qi Blood Eight Transformations, and coupled with cultivating the Star Shattering Pavilion True Skill, his strength was unmatched among Martial Artists of the same realm.

Yue Chengzhi could accept defeat.

But what Yue Chengzhi couldn’t accept was being so thoroughly defeated in his strongest area of strength.

“Maybe it’s just my extraordinary talent,” Lin Zheyu said with a smile.

“Extraordinary talent?”

“Phew…”

Yue Chengzhi exhaled deeply, finding it hard to accept, “Thank you for the lesson, I’ll come back and challenge you again tomorrow!”

With that, he turned and left.

“Heroism in youth, indeed!”

“Lin Junior Brother, at such a young age, possesses such formidable strength; it truly makes the senior brothers feel ashamed.” Kong Bo came over, smiling in admiration.
