Chapter 387: Heavenly Emperor Ye, everyone step back, I'm about to show off

~9 min read 1,620 words

The intervention of the Great Ming imperial court made the already tense atmosphere of the centennial banquet even more turbulent.

Despite the court offering such generous terms—Wudang to become the state religion and Zhang Sanfeng to become the State Preceptor—the offer was ultimately rejected.

With such a lack of respect shown to the court, Zhu Wushi naturally would not sit idly by; he had to step forward to meet this Zhang Sanfeng.

Zhang Sanfeng was a legend of the Great Ming martial arts world, while Zhu Wushi was a prince of the imperial court and did not belong to the world of the jianghu.

In the entire martial arts world, not many people knew the true strength of Zhu Wushi.

Even his three adopted children were the same!

Seeing that Zhu Wushi intended to act, the Earth-rank secret agent Guihai Yidao took the lead and volunteered:

"Why must Foster Father act? Let me meet this True Person Zhang."

"I am your elder brother; let me handle this to relieve Foster Father of his worries," Duan Tianya said.

Zhu Wushi looked at his two adopted children, his heart moved slightly; if it were an ordinary opponent, he certainly would not have acted, leaving the opportunity to his two adopted children.

But the opponent was Zhang Sanfeng, a Master of a generation, whose martial arts were unfathomable.

Even if Guihai Yidao and Duan Tianya attacked together, they would not last ten moves.

Furthermore, this was a task handed down by the Yongle Emperor; to ensure success, he had no choice but to act himself.

"You are only juniors; what qualifications do you have to cross swords with True Person Sanfeng?" Zhu Wushi said.

Hearing this, Zhang Sanfeng's expression was gentle as he said:

"Divine Marquis, actually, it is not impossible for you all to attack together."

"I only hope the imperial court can allow my Wudang to remain independent from the outside world and stop provoking us."

"..., bullying the few with the many does not conform to the Tao; furthermore, today is the True Person's centennial birthday banquet. If the court truly moved against Wudang, it would not just be the few of us coming, but one hundred thousand iron hooves of the Great Ming," Zhu Wushi said, his expression unchanged.

"If one hundred thousand iron hooves of the Great Ming were to besiege Wudang, this old Taoist would not mind paying a night visit to the Imperial Palace," Zhang Sanfeng said with a carefree laugh.

If it were any other sect facing the court, they would basically be timid and submissive.

But at this moment, a heroic spirit surged from the bottom of his heart; he was already one hundred years old, and if he didn't get passionate now, he would never have the chance again.

Hearing these rogue-like words from Zhang Sanfeng, Zhu Wushi's expression darkened.

If Zhang Sanfeng really went to the Imperial Palace, there was likely no one who could stop him.

"Arguments are meaningless. True Person Zhang, please offer your guidance."

As he finished speaking, Zhu Wushi leaped, executing a supreme lightness skill to fly outside the Taiqing Hall.

If they were to fight in the Taiqing Hall, he feared the great hall would not withstand the devastation of their power.

Zhang Sanfeng took a step; this step covered ten meters, then a hundred, easily passing over the many sects to arrive outside the hall.

His posture was ethereal, like an immortal, carefree and natural, as if carved by nature itself.

Seeing this, the many sects watching the spectacle followed closely behind, fearing they would miss out.

As for Cui Shan, he was not so important at this moment.

With Zhang Sanfeng insisting on protecting him, who could dare to act recklessly?

As long as Zhang Sanfeng disregarded the Tao of righteousness, who in the righteous martial arts world could threaten him?

By comparison, the duel between Zhang Sanfeng and Zhu Wushi was far more eye-catching.

If he wins, Wudang is free and will continue to stand on the land of the Great Ming.

If he loses, the Wudang Sect enters the imperial court and becomes a lackey of the court.

"Xuan Ge, let's go take a look together."

Ye Fan smiled and was about to take the initiative to pull Xuanzang's arm.

But he was intercepted by Hua Xiaogu in advance, causing him to return empty-handed.

"Let's go," Xuanzang said.

Previously, what he faced were all gods, ghosts, monsters, Bodhisattvas, demons, and creatures of Darkness!

Now, watching the top experts of this martial arts world compete was also quite interesting.

"Sigh, if True Person Sanfeng had been this brave earlier, there would be no business for the other sects," Li Chungang could not help but say.

"Indeed."

The Bad Commander nodded, then with his hands behind his back, he executed a ghostly movement technique, arriving outside the Taiqing Hall in the blink of an eye.

This ghostly movement technique stunned the people from the Six Great Sects and Hulong Villa.

"Who is this? When did such an expert appear in the jianghu?" Shangguan Haitang exclaimed in shock.

Guihai Yidao was silent; apart from killing, he knew nothing.

"Look at him showing off."

Li Chungang was no longer pretending; Sword Qi erupted beneath his feet, man and sword became one, transforming into a sword shadow that arrived outside the hall, causing another stir.

With this method, no one present could possibly replicate it.

"So powerful!"

In the crowd, the low-key Sword Immortal of Xueyue, Li Hanyi, saw this scene, her pupils constricting.

As a Sword Cultivator herself, Li Hanyi knew deeply how difficult it was to reach the level of Li Chungang.

If she were to attempt this set of fluid, effortless movements, she certainly could not complete it.

"With such profound Sword Dao cultivation, who exactly is he?"

"If I cannot cross swords with him, I fear it will become a lifelong regret."

A fighting spirit rose in Li Hanyi's heart, and she decided to find an opportunity to challenge this mysterious Sword God.

"Damn, everyone is showing off now, aren't they?"

"I, Ye Fan, the Heavenly Emperor, do not accept this!"

"Moving Word Secret, let's go!"

Ye Fan's feet moved with layers of phantoms, and he also arrived at Taiqing Hall with extreme speed.

Of course, he still restrained himself quite a bit, not directly transforming into golden light or erupting with great power; otherwise, he did not know how many people he would have frightened.

And although his strength was currently in the lower-middle range among the group members, he was at least a Four Extremities cultivator; placed in this martial arts plane, that was an existence far exceeding the ceiling.

Ye Fan had restrained himself, but he still shocked many onlookers?

Where did this expert come from? Such movement technique is simply divine.

"This Ye Laoliu!" Shi Hao said.

Xuanzang, Bai Qian, and Wang Wu did not cause any commotion and walked normally.

Outside the hall, Ye Fan appeared calm on the surface, but was actually extremely excited inside, thinking:

"No wonder those grassroots protagonists all like to return to the newbie village to show off; it's this feeling, the gaze of the masses, it's so comfortable, and my thoughts are instantly clear."

On the Taiqing Yutai Square of Wudang, Zhu Wushi and Zhang Sanfeng stared at each other!

They did not make a move immediately, but instead looked at each other, gathering momentum and ready to strike!

In a duel between experts, it is not about moves, but one's own momentum!

The stronger the momentum, the higher the combat power that erupts will be.

No matter how fierce the kingly momentum of Iron-Gall Divine Marquis Zhu Wushi was, Zhang Sanfeng remained calm and composed, light as the wind and thin as the clouds, unhindered by objects, entering the realm of Heaven and Human Unity, his heart becoming the infinite firmament!

In the end, Zhu Wushi could not gain any advantage at the level of momentum; if he continued, he would only be asking for humiliation, as one wanes and the other waxes!

He looked at the two stone lions on the Taiqing Jade Platform that weighed a thousand catties, waved his large hand, and thought to himself:

"Sucking Power Great Method!"

A terrifying power of Devour controlled the two stone lions to fly into the sky, and surging true Qi was continuously injected into the stone lions, actually making the stone lions come alive and possess life!

This is the miraculous aspect of the Sucking Power Great Method: turning decay into magic and making the world serve one's own use!

And at this moment, the realm of the Iron-Gall Divine Marquis was also thoroughly exposed: Heavenly Human Realm perfection, only one step away from entering Land Immortal!

But the level of his true Qi was comparable to a Land Immortal, and even more terrifying.

Seeing this earth-shattering power of the Iron-Gall Divine Marquis, looking across the Great Ming martial arts world, I am afraid few people could deal with him.

"Foster father is actually this strong!" Shangguan Haitang's face revealed a look of surprise.

And the six major sects saw this, and a sense of foreboding arose in their hearts.

If Zhu Wushi is this strong, it would be easy for him to destroy their sects.

"Divine Marquis, good technique!"

Zhang Sanfeng smiled, stepped on the seven stars, his posture swaying, his arms embracing the sky and pulling the moon, and a Yin-Yang Taiji fish immediately appeared under his feet, and this Yin-Yang Taiji fish expanded rapidly, covering ten zhang!

Within ten zhang, the Taiji twins are born, Yin and Yang mutually assist, making me the king!
