Chapter 337

Xu Yang couldn't help but shout. He had finally encountered an expert he could fight. He felt as if his blood was about to burn, and his fighting spirit was as hot as fire.

With such a genius, he should be able to fight to his heart’s content today.

On the mountain road, smoke and dust rolled, and strong winds surged. Two powerful auras were like two exotic beasts fighting, startling birds into flight and silencing insects.

The smoke and dust dissipated, revealing two figures in a standoff.

"How is this possible!"

Yan Guiyun showed a look of disbelief.

His Marrow Cleansing realm was already complete, and he had started to attempt the Heaven Origin realm. He originally thought that even if Xu Yang were at Great Perfection of Marrow Cleansing, he could crush him. He never expected that in the first collision, the two were almost evenly matched.

Xu Yang’s martial dao foundation was actually more vigorous than his own; otherwise, it would be impossible for him to be evenly matched with him just after breaking through to Great Perfection of Marrow Cleansing.

"Bang!"

The force exploded at the tips of their fists, and both couldn't help but take large steps back, cracking the ground all the way and leaving footprints two or three inches deep.

Yan Guiyun was uncontrollably horrified. If Xu Yang had been cultivating for as long as he had, he feared this punch would have suppressed and killed him.

And in this punch, Xu Yang didn't seem to have used his golden true qi, but only his pure physical body to bombard him.

"I cannot let you live!" Yan Guiyun’s killing intent surged, no longer calm and composed.

Such talent made even him feel horrified. One had to know that he had been cultivating for two years longer than Xu Yang.

With two more years, he still couldn't suppress Xu Yang.

Xu Yang had been in the sect for less than three years, and not only was his cultivation at Great Perfection of Marrow Cleansing, but he had also cultivated his physical body to a realm capable of resisting semi-spirit weapons.

"Boom!"

His blood and qi boiled, true qi surged, and his disheveled hair danced wildly.

Yan Guiyun stepped forward, light flowing over his whole body. His vigorous true qi quickly converged, finally gathering at his fist to form a layer of fist-aura compressed to the extreme, which he threw out heavily.

"Boom!"

The moment the fist was thrown, the true qi exploded rapidly, like a rushing wave of the sea slapping out, emitting a booming sound and shaking up smoke and dust.

Since his physique couldn't suppress Xu Yang, he would win with vigorous true qi. He had already reached the critical point of the Heaven Origin realm, and the vigor of his true qi was definitely not something Xu Yang could compare to.

Facing this tide-like, dead-end-free true qi attack, Xu Yang only bolstered his protective true qi.

His true qi was not as vigorous as Yan Guiyun’s, but the purity of his true qi was not something Yan Guiyun’s true qi could compare to.

"Boom!"

Golden true qi vibrated out, protecting his whole body. Letting the true qi that was like a raging sea crash onto him, he was like an indestructible mountain.

A golden palm slapped out, instantly tearing through the crimson true qi torrent and slapping onto Yan Guiyun’s fist.

Bear-King Palm, Destroying Mountains and Breaking Peaks!

"Bang!"

Fist and palm collided, emitting a deafening muffled sound. The erupting true qi torrent was like a tide, blasted back by the powerful force.

Xu Yang’s eyes were cold and sharp, his fighting spirit rising, and golden true qi erupted.

Yan Guiyun’s whole body shook, his tendons and bones roared. He felt a sharp, blade-like, domineering, and pure true qi surge from Xu Yang’s palm, easily invading his meridians and causing massive destruction.

"What pure true qi."

He also cultivated a technique to condense true qi. Although it wasn't a technique for heterochromatic true qi like the Golden True Qi, it was still a superior technique. Cultivated to the Great Perfection realm, his true qi would definitely not be weaker than heterochromatic true qi like the Golden True Qi.

But the purity of Xu Yang’s true qi far exceeded his, as sharp as a knife.

"This is definitely not true qi that can be cultivated by the Heaven-True Body-Forging Technique or the Golden True Qi Technique."

As if electrocuted, Yan Guiyun hurriedly withdrew his fist, finally cutting off the true qi Xu Yang had blasted into his body. He felt his whole fist was like being pricked by thousands of needles, with stinging pain everywhere.

"If your third place among the Ten Talents is only this much, today is your death day."

Xu Yang’s posture was like a dragon, and with one step, the earth trembled, his whole body emitting a majestic aura.

The golden palm was like a mountain collapsing and the earth splitting, tearing through the air and slamming out again.

Before the palm arrived, the true qi wind it stirred up already made Yan Guiyun’s face ache, and he felt as if a giant rock were pressing on his heart, making his breathing uncomfortable.

"You dare to look down on me? You think I, Yan Guiyun, am really an empty reputation?" Yan Guiyun’s eyes widened in anger.

With a boom, his true qi burned like a raging fire, heat waves rolled, his whole body turned crimson, and the surging energy stirred up air waves.

A series of joint-roaring sounds came from his body, and his body actually grew half a foot taller in an instant, his muscles bulging like mountain peaks, suddenly turning into a giant over two meters tall.

It was exactly the body-forging technique he cultivated—Burning Heaven Flame Body.

An oppressive aura emanated from him; he seemed to have turned into a ball of raging fire, and Xu Yang’s 1.8-meter height became short in front of him.

"Boom!"

Flames rose on Yan Guiyun’s body, his wild hair danced, and his aura became stronger than before. His knotted muscles almost burst his wide robes, and his palm, as large as a cattail leaf, slapped out violently, colliding with Xu Yang again.

The two seemed not to want to compare moves, but just wanted to see who was tougher and whose martial dao foundation was more solid.

"Bang!"

A giant sound like a mountain collapsing and the earth splitting came, and the earth beneath their feet roared, shaken into a terrifying crack.

Force erupted, broken stones filled the sky, and amidst the cracking sounds, Xu Yang’s protective true qi rippled, appearing with fine cracks, and his tendons and bones roared together.

His King of Wisdom Immovable Body realm was still quite a bit behind Yan Guiyun’s Burning Heaven Flame Body. His body’s jade-like luster was the manifestation of the King of Wisdom Immovable Body being pushed to the extreme, and his surging blood and qi made his skin faintly red, as if his blood and qi were about to be shaken out of his body.

He felt a powerful force come from the opposite palm, couldn't help but step back, and felt a tightness in his chest.

"Satisfying!" he shouted.

The true qi in his body surged with a boom, dots of gold appeared, and his body turned golden, as if cast from gold.

He also activated the Golden True Qi Technique, his robes billowed, and his powerful aura swept out like a volcanic eruption, suppressing his surging blood and qi.

"Golden True Qi Technique!" Yan Guiyun’s eyes shone with intense light, and killing intent surged.

Xu Yang actually still had a trump card!

Once this Golden True Qi Technique came out, the strength he had finally managed to suppress Xu Yang with was immediately leveled again, and he no longer held any advantage.

"Come again!"

Xu Yang’s fighting spirit soared. Several collisions gave him a sense of unbridled satisfaction. The soil beneath his feet collapsed, and his body suddenly disappeared from where he was, shooting out like an arrow from a bow, bringing with it a sharp whistle and stirring up a terrifying true qi wind.

True qi gathered in his golden palm, carrying suffocating pressure, and he simply and crudely slapped out another palm.

"Boom!"

A deafening roar, the air seemed to have been blasted into an invisible passage, and in just a flash of light, his palm was already close at hand, the pressure making the flames on Yan Guiyun’s body sway.

"I don't fear you!"

Yan Guiyun’s palm, which seemed to be burning with blood flames, slapped out like lightning, containing ten thousand jin of giant force, like a mountain collapsing and the earth splitting.

"Bang!"

The two palms collided, causing a terrifying explosion. Xu Yang’s tendons and bones roared, his face turned red, and with a crack, the golden true qi was directly shaken away by the terrifying vibration force, and a tide of soil rose around him.

"Puchi!"

A look of pain appeared on Yan Guiyun’s face, his internal organs were displaced, and the true qi burning like raging fire outside his body was also directly extinguished, revealing his expanded and taller body, his muscles trembling.

Protective true qi reappeared, and Xu Yang’s golden palm slapped out again, one palm heavier than the last.

The Bear-King Palm was originally a palm technique that was extremely rigid and fierce, open and closed, with no flashy moves. Both were geniuses with successful body-forging, and their physical bodies could resist semi-spirit weapons.

For a time, the forest was like two steel giants colliding. The ground within a radius of ten or twenty zhang was vibrating, constantly shattering, and the smoke and dust stirred up had already shrouded the mountain forest a hundred zhang wide.

The more they fought, the more satisfying Xu Yang felt. This kind of close-quarters physical combat and hard collision made his fighting spirit soar higher and higher, and his emotions were excited to the extreme.

Yan Guiyun, however, was more and more horrified the more they fought!

Both of their physiques were extremely tough, and coupled with protective true qi, after twenty or thirty moves, he still couldn't do anything to Xu Yang, feeling that even if they fought for hundreds more moves, the result would be the same.

Although Xu Yang hadn't been cultivating for as long as he had, he also had no shortcomings.

The two continued to fight, and in the blink of an eye, they had passed a hundred moves. Even though both of their physiques were very strong, they felt their physical strength decline. After all, both were outstanding, and they had been fighting head-on, so even an iron body couldn't withstand such constant collisions.

"You can't do anything to me, and I can't do anything to you. Let’s call it quits, how about we write it off? Otherwise, let’s have a weapon duel?" Yan Guiyun shouted.

He didn't want to fight anymore.

Fighting any longer would mean mutual destruction, and even if he won, it would be a miserable victory, not worth the loss.

In a weapon duel, he also had no certainty. Xu Yang could temper his physical body and physique to this degree, so his attainments in weapons would definitely not be low. If they really used weapons, they might truly end up in mutual destruction.

Their bodies could resist semi-spirit weapons, but it also depended on whose semi-spirit weapon it was.

"I can't do anything to you? Write it off?" Xu Yang’s long hair flew, his whole body golden, faintly glowing with red light.

After a hundred moves of fierce battle, his vigorous blood and qi seemed to be about to evaporate from his body, and new blood surged in his body like thunder.

It wasn't that he couldn't do anything to Yan Guiyun, but that it was rare to encounter such an expert, and it was in such a quiet place where no one disturbed them. He couldn't bear to kill him immediately, so he borrowed the other party to ignite his own fighting spirit.

"Boom!"
