Chapter 433: Are you young and fearless, or are you simply ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth?
Watching the surrounding Disciples of the Unofficial (Buliangren) unleash various strange techniques, Tong Bo's face showed no signs of panic.
This was because the gap in cultivation base between Tong Bo and these Disciples of the Unofficial was simply too vast.
It could be said that even if Tong Bo stood still and let these Disciples of the Unofficial attack him, he might not suffer the slightest injury.
After all, not long ago, Tong Bo had successfully broken through the final bottleneck of the Innate Realm of the Earthly Immortal, finally stepping into the Heavenly Man Realm of the Earthly Immortal. Tong Bo could now be said to have successfully squeezed into the ranks of the powerhouses from the various major factions of the Nine Provinces currently appearing.
In the face of absolute strength, everything else appears pale; this sentence perfectly explains the battle between Tong Bo and this team of Disciples of the Unofficial.
Watching the Disciples of the Unofficial charge over with their full combat strength, Tong Bo merely let out a soft hum, and the mysterious blue energy floating around him dispersed toward his surroundings like a giant wave in the ocean.
It slowly emitted endless blue ripples.
And the Disciples of the Unofficial who attacked him, upon touching the blue giant wave ripples around Tong Bo, were like tiny boats in the middle of the ocean.
As the blue ripples continued to spread, the numerous Disciples of the Unofficial were one by one knocked out of the battlefield by the blue energy.
In just a short half-quarter of an hour, all the Disciples of the Unofficial on the field had been cleared by this single move used by Tong Bo.
Even the two strongest minor commanders in this squad of Disciples of the Unofficial could only struggle to keep from fainting immediately, clutching their chests as thin trails of blood flowed from their mouths.
This time, as they looked at Tong Bo, Tong Zhan, Dou Dou, and Yin Xiu, the solemnity in their eyes had long since turned into fear and despair.
They had only ever felt this sense of despair radiating from Tong Bo when in the presence of the Grand Marshal of the Disciples of the Unofficial, Yuan Tiangang.
Back when they faced Yuan Tiangang, these Disciples of the Unofficial felt as if their lives were no longer in their own hands, but held by that Yuan Tiangang before them, who felt like an ancient demon mountain, filling them with despair.
This was the fear Tong Bo brought to them.
Seeing Tong Bo resolve the people of the mysterious organization surrounding them in a single move, Tong Zhan, Dou Dou, and Yin Xiu, who were on the sidelines, all widened their eyes in shock.
Dou Dou knew that Tong Bo's strength should be extremely formidable; after all, she was clear about the true combat power of Tong Zhan and Tong Xin and knew how terrifying they were, yet the two of them had still been at a disadvantage when fighting that middle-aged man at the Imperial Sword Villa.
And that was even when Tong Zhan and Tong Xin had joined forces against that middle-aged man from the Imperial Sword Villa.
Yet when Tong Bo stepped in at the critical moment to save them, he alone was able to hold off that powerful middle-aged man.
Moreover, after Tong Bo arrived, the three brothers—Tong Bo, Tong Zhan, and Tong Xin—joined forces and were able to knock that formidable middle-aged man from the Imperial Sword Villa back several meters.
From this, it was evident that Tong Bo's strength definitely surpassed that of Tong Zhan and Tong Xin.
It was just that Dou Dou had originally thought that even if Tong Bo were stronger than Tong Zhan and Tong Xin, he definitely wouldn't be that much stronger.
At most, he would only be a sliver stronger in terms of realm.
That was why, when Dou Dou saw Tong Bo beat this group of people from the mysterious organization until they had no power to fight back in such a short time, she became as surprised as she was now.
Dou Dou suddenly remembered that she had just been lecturing Tong Bo with a high and mighty attitude, and she instantly felt that she really was ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth. If Tong Bo had wanted to make a move against her, she feared that with a single breath, she, Dou Dou, would have suffered a severe injury!
Seeing Tong Bo resolve the mysterious people surrounding them so easily, Tong Zhan's eyes turned from surprise to excitement.
Of course, there was also a trace of fighting spirit burning in Tong Zhan's eyes.
Since childhood, Tong Zhan had regarded Tong Bo as the direction for his own efforts; he had always wanted to surpass this elder brother, who had possessed extraordinary talent for martial arts since he was young, in terms of cultivation and strength.
Now that Tong Zhan saw Tong Bo had become even stronger, his first reaction was to feel happy for his elder brother, Tong Bo, because his strength had inevitably reached a higher level; secondly, Tong Zhan felt even more motivated to urge himself to cultivate diligently.
Otherwise, let alone surpassing his elder brother Tong Bo in strength in the future, even catching a glimpse of Tong Bo's back on the path of cultivation would be a question!
"Big Brother, have you become stronger again!!"
"Have you broken through now? Have you become a powerhouse of the Heavenly Man Realm of the Earthly Immortal!"
Tong Zhan walked to Tong Bo's side and stared very seriously into Tong Bo's eyes as he spoke.
Looking at Tong Zhan at this moment, Tong Bo was also slightly stunned.
Tong Bo knew in his heart that this younger brother of his had been very competitive since childhood.
Especially in terms of cultivation and martial dao, Tong Zhan had always taken him as the target ahead.
Tong Bo looked at Tong Zhan's very determined eyes, then smiled, reached out his right hand to gently pat Tong Zhan's head just like when they were children, nodded, and said softly:
"Yes, not long ago I successfully broke through the bottleneck of the Innate Realm of the Earthly Immortal and stepped into the Heavenly Man Realm of the Earthly Immortal."
"However, Tong Zhan, with your talent, you will definitely be able to behold the scenery of the Heavenly Man Realm of the Earthly Immortal in the future."
"Big Brother was just lucky to reach this step ahead of time."
Hearing Tong Bo's words and the gesture that was just like when they were children, Tong Zhan was uncharacteristically shy; he immediately shook his head to shake Tong Bo's hand off and walked toward Dou Dou.
However, compared to just a moment ago, besides being filled with fighting spirit to become stronger, his eyes also held a trace of tenderness for their kinship.
Just as the four of them—Tong Bo, Tong Zhan, Dou Dou, and Yin Xiu—were about to leave this place, find a place to stay, and then figure out a way to resolve the matter of the Water Moon Cave Heaven Secret Realm being frozen...
Suddenly, a man wearing a black robe and a mask appeared before the four of them.
This person was none other than Yuan Tiangang, who had rushed here from Changancheng to investigate the freezing of the secret realm!
As he was about to arrive, Yuan Tiangang had sensed a strong aura of battle...
He then rushed in this direction, which led to the current scene.
Seeing a mysterious person suddenly appear before them, Tong Zhan, Yin Xiu, and Dou Dou were all startled.
Unable to sense the cultivation fluctuations of the Yuan Tiangang before them, Dou Dou was about to walk forward to push aside this person blocking their path.
However, just as Dou Dou was about to walk forward, she was stopped by a powerful arm.
The person who stopped Dou Dou was none other than Tong Bo.
Just now, Tong Zhan, Dou Dou, and Yin Xiu had been too focused on the suddenly appearing Yuan Tiangang to notice Tong Bo's current expression.
In fact, the moment Yuan Tiangang appeared before them, because Tong Bo's cultivation was much higher than that of Tong Zhan, Dou Dou, and Yin Xiu, he had felt an incomparable sense of oppression from Yuan Tiangang.
According to Tong Bo's guess, this black-robed man blocking their path was definitely also a top-tier powerhouse of the Heavenly Man Realm of the Earthly Immortal, and one with a very high rank within the Heavenly Man Realm!
The moment Tong Bo saw Yuan Tiangang, the composure he had previously held vanished from his eyes, replaced by incomparable solemnity.
"Tong Zhan, take Dou Dou and Yin Xiu and leave first."
"I will catch up with you shortly."
Tong Bo stared fixedly at the Yuan Tiangang before him and said loudly.
This was also the first time in all the years since they were children that Tong Zhan had seen his elder brother, Tong Bo, become this solemn.
He knew the severity of the situation and had no extra words, only leaving behind the sentence, "Big Brother, you must catch up with us!"
He then grabbed Dou Dou and Yin Xiu by their collars and flew rapidly toward the rear.
Seeing Tong Bo actually let his companions leave while he stayed behind alone...
Tong Bo's standing in Yuan Tiangang's heart rose a notch, but because their stances were different, it was impossible for Yuan Tiangang to abandon the mission Li Shimin had entrusted to him just because he appreciated Tong Bo's character.
"Do you think it's useful for you to let them run ahead?"
"Do you think you alone can stop this Marshal?!"
"Should I say you are young and fearless, or that you are ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth?"
A very harsh, metallic voice emanated from Yuan Tiangang's mask, but even with this voice, Tong Bo could detect a hint of mockery in Yuan Tiangang's words.
"Sometimes, don't underestimate your opponent!"
"Whether I can stop you or not, I'll only know after I try!"
Tong Bo's eyes stared fixedly at the Yuan Tiangang before him, the solemnity in his eyes gradually turning into rolling fighting spirit.
This was the first time since he had become a Heavenly Man Realm Earthly Immortal that he had encountered such a terrifying opponent.
Tong Bo wanted to exchange blows with this mysterious person in the black robe to see just how strong he was now!
As for letting Tong Zhan, Dou Dou, and Yin Xiu leave first, it was also so that Tong Bo could enjoy the upcoming battle without any distractions! ===== CHAPTER 434 =====
