Chapter 195: Hard Against Hard!

Except for the four expressionless Emperor Realm cultivators, the rest of the people spoke up one after another.

At the same time, a monstrous pressure bore down upon Lu Tianyu.

Hum!

Cui Jinjia's entire body shimmered with golden light as he gripped his Golden Blade horizontally: "Are you all trying to challenge the majesty of my Tianjia Sect!"

"I am right here; let's see which one of you dares to stop me!"

At the same time, she signaled to Lu Tianyu, telling him to leave.

"Hehehe!"

An Emperor Realm cultivator said disdainfully: "No matter how powerful you are, you are only one person; if you go head-to-head with us, you will definitely be the one to suffer!"

"With so many of us, we could just abduct this kid, then have him duel this young master; sending him back after the duel ends wouldn't count as bullying you for having fewer people!"

Someone laughed: "You killed his two sons, yet you don't even dare to accept it when he brings people to your door for revenge."

"If you leave now, your path of martial arts is practically at an end; you might as well just commit suicide and be done with it!"

Others also spoke up to provoke him: "You just gave your word in front of all of us."

"Leaving repeatedly is equivalent to not giving us face, and it also brings total disgrace to your master, Gui Sheng Xie Yi."

"Do you want to be a coward!"

They were very eager to see just how strong Lu Tianyu was, and why the Tianjia Sect was so impatient to recruit him.

Logically, there should have been some kind of assessment; the Tianjia Sect does not just recruit disciples casually.

If it were them, they would certainly be extremely cautious.

Lu Tianyu, however, chuckled: "Who said I wouldn't accept the challenge?"

"It is your own sordid minds that think I would avoid the fight; I, Lu Tianyu, am not that kind of person!"

He sent a voice transmission to Cui Jinjia: "Senior, rest assured, I know what I'm doing!"

He turned to Tian Guilong: "If your sons are all things like this, I think you should have no descendants left!"

Lu Tianyu felt a slight shock in his heart.

This Tian Guilong's heart was too cruel; he had actually refined his own sons into living corpses—such a person is terrifying.

From this, it is evident that the Joyous Harmony Heaven Sect is even more ruthless and vicious than he had imagined; it is a sect that does not treat people as human beings at all.

He must be very careful in his future actions.

"You!" Tian Guilong's gaze was filled with murderous intent: "It's useless for a brat to have a sharp tongue; later, you will definitely die a hideous death!"

He shouted sharply: "Long'er, sever this brat's four limbs for me, then scrape the flesh off bit by bit to kill him!"

The man in white did not speak, instead transforming directly into a white shadow and charging over.

He used his own body as a weapon, intending to collide with and send Lu Tianyu flying.

Lu Tianyu snorted coldly and struck out with a five-colored handprint.

Clang!

The man in white's body emitted a sound like steel colliding; he performed a somersault in the air and charged at Lu Tianyu again like a cannonball.

He let out a low growl, his five fingers forming claws as he reached for Lu Tianyu's crown.

Golden light shimmered on Lu Tianyu's fist, and he slammed it into the man in white's five fingers, once again producing a loud "Clang!"

Two moves had passed, and the two were evenly matched.

Tian Guilong narrowed his eyes slightly as he stared at Lu Tianyu, a flash of shock crossing his eyes.

He knew Lu Tianyu practiced a Body Refining Technique, but he felt that no matter how powerful Lu Tianyu was, his body's hardness could not possibly be superior to a Copper Corpse.

The Copper Corpse had been forged in fire with various materials, just like forging steel.

Therefore, from the start, he had urged the Copper Corpse not to hold back.

But in reality, Lu Tianyu's Body Refining Technique was quite formidable, capable of being just as hard as the Copper Corpse.

Tian Guilong thought to himself, this brat is truly a genius worthy of killing his two sons; his strength is not something an ordinary person can compare to.

The watching Emperor Realm cultivators also turned solemn; those who had been disdainful all put away their contempt.

As the saying goes, once an expert makes a move, you know if they have the goods.

They had all observed that Lu Tianyu's Body Refining Technique was not ordinary body refining; otherwise, it would be impossible for him to be evenly matched with the Copper Corpse.

Especially the Qi on his fist—supple yet without losing its ferocity—it was simply perfect Qi.

To go head-to-head with a Copper Corpse bare-handed and not fall behind is something an ordinary Body Refiner could not achieve.

This is the level that only a Body Refining sect among the Hidden World Sects could reach.

Moreover, besides body refining, this kid can also perform Qi Refining; he hasn't even shown his Qi Refining methods yet.

"Roar!"

The Copper Corpse suddenly let out a low roar and performed several backflips in the air.

His white robes fluttered, wisps of black energy swirled around his body, his eyes turned a jade-green color, and his fists were wreathed in black and green gas.

Amidst a sizzling sound, the air was corroded by the gas, emitting waves of pungent, foul stench.

Whoosh!

The man in white transformed into a streak of light and charged at Lu Tianyu, both fists striking out toward Lu Tianyu's forehead.

Where his fists passed, bursts of air explosions rang out; the momentum was terrifying.

Red light shimmered on Lu Tianyu's fists, and he likewise struck out with both fists to meet him, unleashing the Great Perfection Fire Dragon Fist.

Bang!

A loud explosion.

The black and green gas on the Copper Corpse's fists emitted a sizzling sound and actually vanished by half.

A series of gasps erupted from the surroundings.

"This is Great Perfection Fire Attribute Gang Qi; I underestimated this kid!"

"Indeed! Being able to cultivate Fire Attribute Gang Qi to Great Success is already quite extraordinary, but this kid has actually cultivated it to Great Perfection; he is truly a rare genius!"

"This kid possesses the complete Five Elements Gang Qi; if he were to cultivate all of the Five Elements Attribute Gang Qi to the Great Perfection state, that would be too monstrous!"

"Not necessarily; his cultivation realm still has a gap compared to that kid's. Although he has the upper hand for now, it might not be the case as time goes on."

"That's right, his stamina is limited, and Great Perfection Gang Qi consumes energy very quickly!"

A cold sneer also appeared on Tian Guilong's face.

He felt that Lu Tianyu must be using his full strength at this moment, otherwise he would not be able to block the Copper Corpse's attack.

If things continued like this, Lu Tianyu certainly would not be able to hold on for long.

But the ensuing battle made him gasp in cold air.

He saw the aura on Lu Tianyu's body suddenly grow twofold, and an inexplicable power was added to him, causing his combat strength to surge twofold.

Bang!

The Copper Corpse was sent flying by a punch from Lu Tianyu.

Following that, Lu Tianyu pressed forward, throwing punch after punch, and the speed of his punches became faster and faster.

From one punch per breath at the start, to over a dozen punches per breath!

The sounds of bang, bang, bang rang out incessantly.

The Copper Corpse was currently being beaten back repeatedly, just like a living target.

Its speed was a notch behind Lu Tianyu's, its punching speed was also inferior, and its power was also a grade lower.

Bang, bang, bang—the fists continuously slammed into the Copper Corpse's body, emitting clanging sounds like a broken gong being struck.

The Copper Corpse's expression was ferocious, revealing stark white fangs, and it continuously emitted low growls from its mouth.

Strands of green liquid continuously flowed from the corners of its mouth.

Anyone with a discerning eye knew that this was no ordinary liquid, but the Copper Corpse's blood.

The Copper Corpse was being struck incessantly by Lu Tianyu, its muscles, bones, and even internal organs were shaken and injured, which was why green liquid was flowing from its mouth.
