Chapter 29: Why Is My Career Panel in 2D Anime Style? Chapter 12

"Today, both of you are staying here."

Hearing this, Wu Gensheng slowly retracted the smile from his face and said calmly, "Then lay out your terms—I accept."

Zuo Ruotong shook his head slightly and said nothing, only shifting his foot.

The next instant, he was already standing before Wu Gensheng.

In just a few seconds, the two exchanged blows multiple times.

Li Ang could barely make out their movements.

'If both Wu Gensheng and Li Muxuan die here today, it will truly be a major event for the One World.'

On the other side, Li Muxuan stared blankly at what was unfolding before him.

Though he had spoken boldly moments ago, now that it was actually happening, his heart began to tremble with fear.

The wicked child, the wicked child—after all, he's still just a child.

Boom—

As Wu Gensheng's Push-Heart Palm struck Zuo Ruotong's chest, the two broke apart instantly.

Watching his Master exhale lightly, Li Ang felt no emotion, even a faint urge to laugh.

In the current One World, under one-on-one conditions, as long as Zuo Ruotong didn't want to die, he basically couldn't die.

Except from old age.

At this moment, Wu Gensheng gazed at the Great Full Immortal before him, his eyes deeply shadowed.

He was certain his palm had shattered the other's heart—but the result was complete unharmed.

"Master Zuo, must it come to this?"

Seeing Zuo Ruotong showed no intention to reply, Wu Gensheng exhaled deeply, then uttered a single word:

"Fine."

As his words fell, the eyes and mouth of the Xingzhang Sect leader erupted in white light.

Divine Spirit.

Its function is to untangle bizarrely shaped Qi into its original form.

In other words, this ability can freely destroy the Qi-transformed skin, flesh, tendons, and bones of Sanyi Sect cultivators in Reverse Birth state.

Zuo Ruotong merely clashed with Wu Gensheng for an instant, and he knew the rumors were true.

"Finally..."

Whispering softly, Zuo Ruotong's gaze gradually brightened—he had finally found the path to the Third Layer.

At this moment, Wu Gensheng realized what the Sanyi Sect leader intended to do.

He grinned, blood smeared on his lips, about to speak—when a sudden voice interrupted him.

"Wu Gensheng, if you don't want to see a full-scale war between Sanyi and Xingzhang after today, don't do what you're about to do."

It was Li Ang.

Having read the original novel, he knew what was coming next.

Zuo Ruotong would break through to the Third Layer with Wu Gensheng's help, and then...

His Dao heart would shatter.

At this moment, Wu Gensheng gripped Zuo Ruotong's hand tightly, his face twisted in rage as he snarled, "Kid, do you think I don't want to stop now?!"

As his words ended, a blinding white light erupted across the clearing.

The next second, Zuo Ruotong's body was flung backward, crashing heavily to the ground and vanishing without a trace—leaving only his robe floating in midair.

Seeing this, Wu Gensheng gasped heavily, then grabbed Li Muxuan, who had collapsed to the ground beside him, and sprinted down the mountain.

Li Ang did not stop them, only looked up at the sky.

It wasn't that he didn't want to stop them—he wasn't even sure if he'd return to the Main World after today's events. If he got injured intervening against Wu Gensheng, it would surely harm his chances of returning.

He hadn't attacked Li Muxuan earlier for the same reason.

Under Li Ang's gaze, the robe floating in midair was instantly filled with milky-white True Qi, and then a figure surrounded by milky-white cloud Qi appeared in the air.

"Reverse Birth"

"Third Layer."

Having read the original plot, Li Ang knew this was his Master's Reverse Birth: Three Layers reaching the Third Layer.

Too bad

What's fake is still fake.

Zuo Ruotong, whose entire body had now transformed into Primordial Qi, looked at his own hands with a complex expression.

His earlier uneasy suspicion had now been confirmed.

Reverse Birth: Three Layers—cannot reach Heaven.

Technique is still only technique.

The Great Full Immortal closed his eyes in pain.

Seeing this, Li Ang took a deep breath—he felt things weren't yet at their worst.

After all, unlike the original plot, Wu Gensheng hadn't even had time to help his Master make the final confirmation before fleeing—he still had room to act!

At the same time, three messages appeared on Li Ang's career panel.
