Chapter 591: His name is so arrogant, isn't he afraid of being beaten to death?

"Master!"

Seeing Ma Xiaotian walk over, the crowd called out one after another.

The first and second disciples were full of shame, lowering their heads as they said, "Master, we have brought disgrace upon you."

Ma Xiaotian glanced at his two disciples; they were not injured, so it seemed the other party had held back.

They had not come to pick a fight.

This made him feel relieved in his heart.

In such matters, the fear was always that the other party had come specifically for their Dahe Sect.

He merely gave a faint 'hmm', strode into the arena, and cupped his hands, saying, "I am Ma Xiaotian. Greetings, Brother Zhetian. Many thanks to Brother Zhetian for showing mercy."

Yin Qi returned the salute and smiled slightly, saying, "Sect Master Ma is too kind. Although I have come to challenge you, it is not to stir up trouble, but rather to spar with you seniors in hopes of catching a glimpse of a higher realm of the Martial Dao."

Ma Xiaotian was enlightened, and he sighed, "The Heaven Realm is already the peak of the Martial Dao. This is all thanks to Yang Daoren of the ancestral land, who created a brand-new Heavenly Realm Cultivation Method and opened up a broad, smooth path for us martial artists. But above the Heaven Realm is the Immortal Realm; even for those who cultivate immortality, breaking through to the Earth Immortal level is extremely difficult, let alone for us in the Martial Dao."

Yin Qi said with a solemn expression, "Just because it is difficult, must we martial artists be content with the status quo? Since the Yellow Emperor founded the Martial Dao until now, over a hundred thousand years have passed, yet Heaven Realm cultivation has never been perfected. Now that Yang Daoren has been able to perfect the Heavenly Realm Cultivation Method, why can we not create an Immortal Realm that belongs to our Martial Dao?"

Looking at the earnest Yin Qi, Ma Xiaotian did not mock him; instead, a sense of admiration arose, and he said, "Brother Zhetian has great aspirations. If there is a need, my Dahe Sect is willing to contribute a small effort."

Yin Qi said, "Then I thank Brother Ma in advance. Actually, I also know that relying solely on my own strength to create an Immortal Realm Martial Dao is almost impossible, so I intend to unite all fellow practitioners of the Heaven Realm to discuss the possibilities of an Immortal Realm Martial Dao together. At that time, I hope Brother Ma will be able to attend."

A flash of brilliance passed through Ma Xiaotian's eyes, and he suddenly asked, "So, this is the reason you challenged me?"

Yin Qi said, "Correct. I need fame, and I hope Brother Ma can provide guidance."

"Good!"

Ma Xiaotian cupped his hands and said, "Brother Zhetian has such grand ambitions, and I admire it. But for the sake of the world, I will give it my all."

"Naturally! Please!"

Yin Qi also cupped his hands, then assumed a fighting stance.

The two stood facing each other, and two massive waves of Blood Qi surged out, like two erupting Volcanoes, forcing the surrounding disciples to retreat one after another until they were outside the martial arts arena.

"Hiss, this Zhetian is so strong. Can the Sect Master defeat him?"

"Although this Zhetian is arrogant, I cannot bring myself to dislike him. If he can truly create an Immortal Realm Martial Dao, then we martial artists can finally stand tall in front of those who cultivate immortality."

"Indeed, our Martial Dao cultivation does not rely on innate talent; this is the future of our Human Race."

Two terrifying auras were colliding crazily; although they were invisible and intangible, the disciples present felt as if they heard endless sounds of metal clashing, like a fierce wind and rain, ringing incessantly.

"Dahe Divine Fist!"

Ma Xiaotian struck first.

With a deep shout, his entire body's Blood Qi merged with his Divine Power of soul, condensing into the Dahe Divine Power, and then he threw a punch.

As this punch was thrown, it was as if the Milky Way of the nine heavens were pouring down, vast and mighty.

"Shattering Vacuum!"

Yin Qi said faintly, merely slapping out a palm from a distance.

In an instant, he resonated with Heaven and Earth, and endless power of Heaven and Earth swarmed over, then surged outward.

Everywhere it passed, everything turned into dust.

The vast and mighty Dahe Divine Fist instantly dissipated into nothingness, and then Ma Xiaotian let out a muffled groan, a look of horror appearing in his eyes.

It was as if he had been fiercely struck by something, and he could not help but retreat repeatedly.

With every step he took, the ground collapsed, forming one large pit after another, with dust rising everywhere.

Not until he retreated to the edge of the martial arts arena did Ma Xiaotian stand firm.

Hiss!

The entire arena was silent, with only the sound of gasps rising and falling.

All the disciples were stunned.

Their invincible Master had actually been easily defeated by Zhetian's hand.

Ma Xiaotian's face flushed red, and he needed to suppress his boiling blood and Qi; he cupped his hands and lowered his head, saying, "I admire you. I concede defeat."

Being defeated in one move, although it made him lose some face.

But in his heart, there was a faint sense of burning excitement.

This Zhetian was too strong; he had basically already stood at the peak of the Heaven Realm, yet he still could not take a single move from the other party, which meant the other party had gone much further on the path of the Heaven Realm, and perhaps he really could catch a glimpse of an Immortal Realm Martial Dao.

Yin Qi said faintly, "I accept your concession! I intend to head to Yong City and challenge famous experts along the way. If Brother Ma is interested, you can also head to Yong City, and we can gather together to discuss the possibilities of an Immortal Realm Martial Dao."

Ma Xiaotian said solemnly, "Good, I will!"

"I have offended you today. Brother Ma, I shall take my leave now, and we shall meet again."

Yin Qi did not linger and turned to leave.

He needed to build his reputation, and he still needed Ma Xiaotian and the others to beat the drums and shout, so that more people would know about this matter.

Otherwise, the Great Yong Immortal Dynasty was so vast, how much time would it take for him to gather a group of top-tier martial artists?

Watching Yin Qi's disappearing back, Ma Xiaotian's gaze was burning, and he said in a deep voice, "Pass on my Sect Master's order: spread the news of today's events. I want everyone in the country to know within ten days."

"Master!"

The disciples' expressions changed, and they exclaimed in shock.

Being defeated in one move was not a glorious thing.

Ma Xiaotian glared, sweeping his gaze across the arena: "You heard Zhetian's words earlier; this concerns the future of our Martial Dao. To build prestige for him, what does my personal honor or disgrace matter?"

The third disciple said with a bitter smile, "Master. Throughout history, countless talented predecessors have said they wanted to standardize the Heaven Realm, but none have ever succeeded, let alone creating an Immortal Realm Martial Dao."

Ma Xiaotian said sternly, "Even if there is a glimmer of possibility, we cannot give up. Moreover, even if we cannot create an Immortal Realm Martial Dao, many colleagues gathering together might still yield results. Being at the peak of the Heaven Realm, I am far inferior to him, which shows that I still have plenty of room for improvement."

The disciples were all moved in their hearts.

Their Master was at the peak of the Heaven Realm, almost comparable to an Earth Immortal expert.

If Zhetian could defeat their master in a single move, does that not mean the other party's combat power has already reached the Earth Immortal Realm?

Just as their master said, even if one cannot pioneer the Immortal Realm Martial Dao, if one can learn something from Zhetian and walk further on the Heaven Realm, being able to fully rival an Earth Immortal would also be a huge gain.

"Yes, Master."

Very quickly, the news that the Dahe Sect Master was defeated by Zhetian in one move spread throughout the Zilin Kingdom.

Countless people exclaimed:

"What, Sect Master Ma actually lost, and it was in one move; how is this possible?"

"Hiss, where did this Zhetian pop out from, to actually be able to defeat Sect Master Ma in one move? And his name is so arrogant, is he not afraid of being beaten to death?"

"Truly, a fierce Dragon does not cross the river; the name Zhetian is very wild, but the other party does indeed have real ability."

"He actually wants to pioneer the Immortal Realm Martial Dao? Hmph, this is wishful thinking."

"What kind of realm was the Yellow Emperor in back then? Even he stopped at the Heaven Realm when pioneering the Martial Dao, let alone a mere Zhetian?"

"Hehe, I would like to see what kind of waves this Zhetian can stir up."

The former discussions were from martial artists, the latter were from immortal cultivators; they were disdainful, viewing it entirely as a joke.

If pioneering the Immortal Realm Martial Dao were that easy, the mere Heaven Realm would not have remained unstandardized for over ten thousand years, requiring Yang Daoren to emerge and pioneer a brand-new method of cultivation.

In these tens of thousands of years, countless people have tried to standardize it, among whom were no shortage of Heavenly Pride and outstanding figures.
