How could Cao Ya not notice Shi Zhixuan's subtle actions, which were right under his nose?

Cao Ya chuckled softly:

"Want to challenge me? Come on, all of you, hurry up, don't waste everyone's time."

The expressions of the group of grandmasters and great grandmasters changed slightly, and they looked rather unpleasant.

Although Shan Hai Sanren is strong, this is too much of an underestimation of them.

These are all renowned masters in the martial arts world. Aren't they all high-ranking officials? Aren't they all highly skilled in martial arts? Aren't they all exceptionally talented?

It's understandable that Shan Hai Sanren, a broken being, wouldn't take only three or five people seriously.

The Shattered level is indeed far superior to the Grandmaster and Great Grandmaster levels.

The problem is that there are probably dozens of grandmasters and great grandmasters who have come to Luoyang. Not only are those who have long been famous in the martial arts world, but even the old guys who have been living in seclusion in various sects have come out.

With such a large number, they believed that even the broken ones should be treated with caution.

Little did they expect that the hermit of mountains and seas hadn't even given them a second glance.

They are all powerful figures in the martial arts world; who among them has ever suffered such humiliation?

Not to mention the "Evil King" who was itching to make a move, even those who had vehemently refused were now itching to take action.

Soon, the group reached a consensus and attacked Shan Hai Sanren.

But who will be the first to strike the Broken is another matter entirely.

If Shan Hai Sanren gets really angry, the first one to make a move will probably lose their life.

Even the three grandmasters and powerful figures like the Evil King Heavenly Blade are wary of this.

Their proposal was to act simultaneously, without any particular order.

This is how it should be done to deal with the Broken.

Cao Ya in the sky grew impatient and reached out his left hand to grab at the Grandmasters and Great Grandmasters:

"It's too long-winded and wastes everyone's time."

Splash~~~~~

Golden light swirled around, instantly splitting and expanding in the wind, dozens of palms covering the sky, each striking a Grandmaster or Great Grandmaster.

Whew~~~

On the golden palm, flames of the same intense gold burned, incinerating the void and causing faint fluctuations.

Cao Ya couldn't use too much power; he dared not go all out, otherwise the void would shatter immediately, forcing him to ascend.

Below, the grandmasters and great grandmasters cleared their minds of distractions, their expressions solemn, and used all their might to attack the golden flame palm that was slapping at them.

Everyone understands that although it may seem weak because it was just the power that split off from Shan Hai Sanren's attack, it was an unprecedented enemy for a martial artist who was in a state of disarray!

Song Que, the "Heavenly Blade," had a gleam in his eyes. He suddenly drew his sword and unleashed the full power of the Heavenly Blade technique, the blade flashing and striking the palm.

"Evil King" Shi Zhixuan's blood boiled. His Illusionary Demonic Movement was unpredictable, leaving behind many afterimages. He formed the Undying Seal with his hands and actually took the initiative to meet the golden flame palm that was slapping down.

Ning Daoqi, the "Free Spirit," also used his self-created martial art, "Eight Strikes of Free Hands," which is infinitely varied and unpredictable. His moves are free and unrestrained, like a celestial horse soaring through the sky, unbound by any rules. Between the real and the illusory, there are endless wonders.

"Martial Venerable" Bi Xuan clenched his fist and attacked. There was no wind or energy in his fist, but the surrounding space was scorching hot. He looked at the flames wrapped around his palm and his eyes lit up instantly.

Master Yi Jian Fu Cailin observed intently, then sighed deeply. How could he possibly anticipate the opponent's moves with the Broken One's palm technique? He drew his sword with his right hand and launched an attack despite being at a significant disadvantage.

Besides these five masters, there are also "Empress of the Underworld" Zhu Yuyan, Fan Qinghui, Liaokong, the four holy monks of Buddhism, "Demon General" Zhao Deyan, and even some old guys with weathered faces, whom they don't even recognize.

Without exception, they were all martial arts masters at the grandmaster level or even the great grandmaster level.

When faced with Shan Hai Sanren, they all attacked at once, displaying a dazzling array of martial arts skills that dazzled the onlookers.

Especially for disciples of major sects like Shi Feixuan and Wanwan, whose eyes were sharp enough to see so many unparalleled martial arts techniques, their eyes really lit up.

But when they looked at Shan Hai Sanren, they were greatly shocked.

Shan Hai Sanren looked down calmly, without any emotional fluctuation, and didn't even make a second move.

It seemed that he believed a single move would be enough to defeat these dozens of martial arts masters.

"Damn, that's domineering!" Kou Zhong exclaimed, his body trembling with a mixture of fear and admiration.

"I never imagined that there could be such a terrifying person in the world. Young Master Zhong, how exactly did the Hermit of Mountains and Seas cultivate?" Xu Ziling was also shocked.

Cao Ya looks young, but there are still some people in the martial arts world who know how to maintain their youthful appearance.

To everyone else, Shan Hai Sanren must be an immortal old man who has lived for over a hundred years!

Ba Feng Han didn't feel much. Looking at Bi Xuan, the "Martial Venerable," who was struggling to cope with the golden flames, his chest seemed to be filled with boundless fighting spirit.

"Look, the battle is about to be decided."

Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling stared intently, holding their breath.

Then they witnessed a shocking scene.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

A series of thuds echoed as all the grandmasters were defeated. The great grandmaster fared slightly better, but his face was charred and he was injured.

Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling, and the others were completely dumbfounded.

Oh my god!

I was truly defeated in one move!

They're no longer novice martial artists; they've experienced many things, encountered grandmaster-level figures, and personally witnessed the power of grandmasters... The three of them combined could probably barely survive against a grandmaster now.

This is still a Grandmaster; it's hard to imagine how terrifying a Great Grandmaster is.

But what about now?

Even with dozens of grandmasters and great grandmasters joining forces, they still managed to defeat the Shatterer in one move; it was a completely different world.

No wonder the Shatterer had to break through the void and leave!

Now they understood.

"This...this...is too unbelievable, isn't it? A Broken One can be this strong? Did any Broken Ones in history perform like this?" Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling shook their heads, somewhat at a loss for words.

The onlookers were all stunned, even the grandmasters and great grandmasters stood there dumbfounded for a while.

"Heavenly Blade" Song Que coughed up blood, leaned on his long sword to steady himself, and looked up with burning eyes:

"This power... is definitely not that of an ordinary Shatterer! It really comes from the Upper Realm. Has it progressed very far in this mysterious realm of Shattering?"

Cao Ya laughed:

“Song Que, your path of ‘obtaining the sword and then forgetting the sword’ is feasible. It has the potential to make you a celestial being and even break through to the mortal realm. However, the future still depends on your destiny.”

He made a comment.

Cao Ya believes that Song Que, the "Heavenly Blade," is the person with the greatest chance of breaking through in this world, and that the Evil King and the three Grandmasters must be ranked after Song Que.

Unfortunately, Song Que failed to overcome his emotional entanglements. In the original story, during his duel with Ning Daoqi, he failed to unleash his ninth strike because of his former lover, Fan Qinghui.

If he were to unleash the ninth strike, discarding everything that hindered his "forgetting of the sword," perhaps Song Que could achieve the ultimate state of being a celestial being on the spot.

Although that duel is no longer in the works, Cao Ya has brought to this world a yearning for cultivation and immortality.

Perhaps this will further inspire Song Que's desire to pursue the Dao.
