So there’s another one. Your opponent is me. Don’t cause trouble for Donor Shen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Golden Buddha’s Light erupted from Wuhua’s body, clashing with the Hand Venerable Envoy’s massive palm and creating a violent roar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lake’s surface began to tremble. As the few of them exchanged blows, the water roiled as if it were boiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The portly Hand Venerable Envoy wiped the water from his face and sneered. \"Xuanxin Temple’s Great Compassion and Great Mercy Palm. So you’re just a little whelp from Xuanxin Temple. It seems you really do care about that Locust Tree. But today, both of you will be leaving your lives here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhua pressed his palms together, his expression grave. \"Two Venerable Envoys from the Upper Evil Sect have come. You truly honor us with your presence.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hand Venerable Envoy sneered. \"The matter of the Locust Tree is of utmost importance. It’s a good thing two of us came. Otherwise, we might not have been able to take you down.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gravity on Wuhua’s face deepened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Twelve Venerable Envoys of the Upper Evil Sect were only considered mid-tier within the sect, but here in Shengyun County, they were the absolute elite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, two of them had appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhua worried the situation was turning grim, and he began to wonder if he should use the Buddha Beads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Buddha Beads had been intended for dealing with the eeriness of the Locust Tree, but that was no longer a priority. In a life-or-death crisis, using them was the only logical course of action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this thought, Wuhua subconsciously reached into his robes, preparing to retrieve the Buddha Beads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just then, a voice suddenly rang out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fatso, forget the Monk! Get over here and help me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two who had been talking froze, turning their heads in unison, only to witness an utterly shocking scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the lake, Shen Bai held his longsword, its blade glowing with a righteous Qi as brilliant as a blazing sun, illuminating the black-cloth-like night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every strike was filled with awe-inspiring righteousness. Every strike was incomparably mighty. Every strike was as terrifying as a demon’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the assault of his Blood Sword Dance, the powerful force of his Qi and blood surged, seeming as if it could pluck the very stars from the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiqu Venerable Envoy’s spear parried again and again, but under the assault of Shen Bai’s longsword, he could only retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Worse, Xiqu Venerable Envoy’s body was already covered in a dense web of cuts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai, in contrast, swung his sword as casually as if he were taking a leisurely stroll through a garden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hand Venerable Envoy was stunned. He hastily charged toward Shen Bai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them knew each other inside and out, and the Hand Venerable Envoy had never seen his partner in such a sorry state. He had to rescue him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhua snapped out of it and blocked his path. \"Your opponent is me. Do not disturb Donor Shen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Wuhua shot Shen Bai a look of astonishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I knew Shen Bai was an expert,’ he thought, ’but I never expected him to be able to fight Xiqu Venerable Envoy without losing ground.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’No, this is more than just holding his own... he’s toying with him.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That casual air on Shen Bai’s face couldn’t be faked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I was just looking for a helping hand... I didn’t expect to find an absolute master.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhua never would have imagined that in a small place like Shengyun County, he’d stumbled upon such a powerful ally to carry him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’That being the case, I absolutely can’t let the Hand Venerable Envoy get past me and interfere.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blocked, the Hand Venerable Envoy roared, \"You’re courting death, little Monk! Killing you first will do just fine!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A red glow materialized over his massive hands, completely enveloping them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The instant the red light appeared, Wuhua felt an overwhelming pressure bear down on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I have to stop the Hand Venerable Envoy, buy Shen Bai some time.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as Wuhua prepared to fight with all his might, a voice cut through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let him through.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both Wuhua and the Hand Venerable Envoy turned to look at Shen Bai in astonishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai’s expression was calm. \"Let him through.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why?\" Wuhua asked, confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai thought for a moment. \"He’s not enough of a challenge.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hand Venerable Envoy: \"?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhua: \"?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looks of utter confusion were plain to see on both their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Shen Bai was unconcerned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Ever since obtaining his Golden Finger, Shen Bai had needed someone to test his skills against.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’He desperately needed to know what his true combat strength was.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’The Xiqu Venerable Envoy before him had perfect control over his Qi—as easy as an arm commands a finger. He was clearly in the Three Treasures Realm.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’But for me, he’s far from enough.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I want to see if I can handle it if I add another Three Treasures Realm opponent—the Hand Venerable Envoy—to the mix.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Of course, this is all based on the premise of my own safety.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’If things go south, I can just have Wuhua stall the Hand Venerable Envoy again while I quickly dispatch the Xiqu Venerable Envoy.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An opportunity like this to test himself was a rare one, and Shen Bai didn’t want to miss it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hand Venerable Envoy sneered. \"Boy, your arrogance will be the death of you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised his massive palm and lunged at Shen Bai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red light on his massive palm pulsed with a dangerous glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wuhua wanted to intervene, but remembering what Shen Bai had said, he held back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, Wuhua remained on high alert. The moment things looked wrong, he would intervene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the Hand Venerable Envoy joining the fray, the pressure on Shen Bai instantly soared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two masters of the Three Treasures Realm were no joke. Furious at Shen Bai’s humiliating taunt, their attacks grew even swifter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In that case, try and take this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai circulated his Qi and unleashed a strike with his full power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this one strike, his Qi and Blood were like a Dragon, his righteous aura like the sun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The roar was unending.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hand Venerable Envoy and Xiqu Venerable Envoy joined forces to block Shen Bai’s strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both men spat up blood, fear already etched onto their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Is this man... a monster?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The same thought occurred to both of them simultaneously, and the desire to retreat began to bloom in their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Shen Bai’s next words were terrifyingly eerie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good thing I pulled back on that last strike, or it would’ve been no fun. Well then, let’s try a Fist Technique.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Golden Buddha’s Light enveloped his fists as Shen Bai unleashed the Vajra Demon Subduing Fist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden light was sacred, yet it carried a murderous intent, like a Buddha descending to the mortal world to vanquish demons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CRACK!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiqu Venerable Envoy’s spear snapped in two on impact. The fist slammed into his body, and a horrifying, bloody hole appeared in his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blow was instantly fatal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With just one punch, Xiqu Venerable Envoy let out a wretched scream as his Life Energy began to plummet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the influence of Shen Bai’s Qi, his head exploded into a shower of blood that spattered across the clear surface of the lake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The body sank into the lake, quickly disappearing into the depths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aaargh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the Hand Venerable Envoy’s blood ran cold. He grit his teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’So he really was just using us to test his abilities.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I have to go all out!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red light on the Hand Venerable Envoy’s palms intensified. The fat on his body seemed to rapidly shrink as the power of his massive hands continued to climb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’An ultimate move?’ Shen Bai mused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Consider it an honor to die by this palm strike.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hand Venerable Envoy struck at Shen Bai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, the power had multiplied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Hand Venerable Envoy suddenly realized that Shen Bai hadn’t even moved to face the attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A white light, pure as brilliant jade, illuminated the surface of the lake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hand Venerable Envoy’s massive palm landed on Shen Bai’s body. His expression froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt a familiar sensation radiating from the white light on Shen Bai’s body—an energy from the very same source as his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Starting from the Hand Venerable Envoy’s palms, cracks began to spread, inch by inch, across his entire body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’This is... a Defense Technique? And it can reflect attacks?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood gushed from the cracks. This was the Hand Venerable Envoy’s final thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’If this boy isn’t eliminated, the Upper Evil Sect is doomed.’\u003C\u002Fp>",1460,"2026-06-03T14:13:26.865Z","2026-06-03T14:13:33.156Z",1,"novelbin.me","71f4dd9a45e9acfb8d4cc19447a659778f64f0ba2de2182150eb93a074286474","i-can-extract-divine-power-chapter-37","i-can-extract-divine-power-chapter-35",322,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-can-extract-divine-power-cover.jpg"]
