Chapter 671: Wu Zu Arrives in the Western Wastes, Battles the Sumeru Ancestor, and Leaves Behind the Great Heavenly Stele Divine Art!

The Southern Song Dynasty!

Mount Zhongnan!

The Quanzhen Sect!

The Chongyang Palace!

The Six Masters of Quanzhen, along with Wang Chongyang, who had only recently broken through his seclusion, gazed at the Peerless Martial God Ranking in the heavens.

An expression of wonder after welled up unbidden on the faces of master and disciples alike.

"The Battle of Broken Blade Mountain—seizing the moment to spread martial arts across the realm, the first step!"

"The Seventy-Two Forms of Duan Tian Dao Fa!"

"Slaying the angler beyond the heavens, defeating Dantai Shuang of the Guanyin Sect!"

"Killing the Lava Ancestor, invincible in a hundred battles!"

"Is this the might of Wu Zu?"

"Truly beyond imagination!"

"Indeed, who could have imagined that back in those days, Wu Zu had only decided to spread martial arts across the realm because Dantai Shuang had colluded with those from beyond the heavens to fish for the fortune of the world's mighty!"

"And thus resolved to spread martial arts across the realm!"

"Wu Zu's actions truly brought immense benefit to every martial artist across the Nine Provinces of the realm, the Four Seas and Eight Wastes!"

"In five hundred years, who else could, like Wu Zu, influence the countless beings upon the martial path with his own way?"

"No one—not a single one!"

"Apart from Wu Zu Baili Baili Shenyou, there is no second person!"

Wang Chongyang, standing to the side, was moved to the same thoughts.

Wang Chongyang had been in closed-door cultivation for many years; the moment he emerged from his breakthrough, he beheld such a figure upon the Peerless Martial God Ranking!

Naturally, he was utterly astonished.

"In all my life, I, Wang Chongyang, have never thought myself inferior to any man!"

"But today, having witnessed Wu Zu's heroic bearing, I have only just come to know that this world still harbors such a figure!"

"Truly admirable, admirable!"

……

The Great Ming Dynasty!

Jingcheng!

Within the imperial palace!

The Empress Dowager Gongsun Lan gazed at the Peerless Martial God Ranking in the heavens.

A flash of wonder crossed her face!

"If only I had received Wu Zu's legacy back then!"

"How would I have come to suffer as I do today!"

"Wu Zu Baili Baili Shenyou is still among the living!"

"If only we could invite that venerable elder to our Great Ming—how wonderful that would be!"

……

The Southern Song Dynasty.

Outside Lin'an City!

Upstream along the Dajiang!

Jiang Biehe stepped upon a wooden plank, forging against the current!

At this moment.

He gazed at the Peerless Martial God Ranking in the heavens.

His face was full of emotion!

"Wu Zu is actually still alive!"

"If not for the legacy I received from that venerable elder back in those days!"

"How could there be a Jiang Biehe like me today!"

"Among the many legacies Wu Zu left behind, if only I could obtain one or two more of them!"
