Duan Ru stood like a god in the sky, the divine river and the blue sky merging behind him, looking at Pang Xu:
“You are my senior, my senior brother… If I could, I would not wish to fight you.”
In such major martial arts sects, a true disciple is considered a generation for fifty years.
Duan Rushen is the foremost true disciple of the Shenjiang Sect in this generation, while Pang Xu was a true disciple from two generations ago. The Shenjiang Sect and the Jiuyang Sect are not far apart, and disciples of the two sects often compare and compete with each other.
Although the two sects specialize in completely different martial arts, their relationship is not bad. Both are major sects in the Eastern Wilderness Continent, and Duan Rushen naturally does not want things to get too ugly.
"You little brat, you think you've got me cornered?"
Pang Xu smiled contemptuously, his eyes turning cold:
"I want to see what kind of methods this number one of the Divine River Sect, a figure on the Xuan Gold List, has."
Boom!
Without any warning, Pang Xu made a sudden move. With a long dragon's roar, a vast crimson light soared into the sky, transforming into a lifelike crimson dragon.
Its power was like that of a real dragon beast descending, raising its head and roaring in a sea of fire, spewing out a mouthful of dragon flame that would instantly burn rivers and boil seas!
The sudden fight stunned everyone.
Those sent by the Wang family to provoke them never expected that Pang Xu would start a fight in the Ling family's place. They were immediately slammed back by the scorching air currents, feeling excruciating pain. Clearly, Pang Xu had no intention of taking care of them.
Even the area within a ten-mile radius of the Ling family's residence was shaken violently, and the walls of their exceptionally sturdy houses began to creak as if they were about to collapse.
The Ling family, and even the Wang family hiding in the shadows, were shocked.
"The situation has changed. Quickly inform the head of the family and the eldest son."
Originally, the plan was to create public pressure and get Pang Xu to step forward, thus drawing out the Ling family patriarch. No one expected that this guy would take action so suddenly and storm in.
Boom!
"you……"
Duan Rushen frowned, somewhat annoyed.
In an instant, a great river appeared around him, its waves surging and ebbs and flows, with wave after wave colliding with the crimson dragon's flames.
Magnificent as a celestial river irrigating the land, and as devastating as a tsunami, it relentlessly blocked the crimson dragon's attack.
The battle between the celestial beings and the human beings caused a huge commotion that shook the entire Thousand Machine City. Countless people rushed out to watch the spectacle, and experts from all sides witnessed this clash.
The law enforcement team, which was originally there to maintain order in the city, dared not interfere in the fight between the two.
That sword, as powerful as a god, possessed the strength of a great river with every gesture, its aura vast and unfathomable. With each heavy strike, it was on par with the crimson dragon.
However, the crimson dragon was clearly full of vitality, and its crimson color seemed to be constantly oppressing the blue sky, making it look like Duanru Shen could only struggle to hold on.
"This Pang Xu is empowered by the Crimson Dragon, and with his mastery of the Nine Yang Divine Skill, he's incredibly strong!"
Lin Fan's expression changed slightly; he hadn't expected things to escalate to this point so quickly.
He turned to look at Li Ming, who was standing with his hands behind his back, watching with great interest, rather than worrying about who would win or lose.
Ling Yongyi, standing to the side, was clearly not so calm. His expression was very serious as he watched the two fighting in the air intently.
Li Ming said calmly, "Let's wait and see. This 'divine judgment' isn't as simple as it seems."
As Li Ming had predicted, although Duan Rushen appeared to be under great pressure, he actually spared some of his strength to protect the aftershocks of the battle, blocking most of the power in mid-air and preventing it from affecting the Ling family too much.
Clearly, he has achieved a level of mastery in controlling this immense power.
During the stalemate, Duan Rushen was clearly getting angry.
With a casual wave of his hand, countless waves surged forth from all directions and began to pound against Pang Xu's body. The resulting gale was so strong that it stung people's faces, but Pang Xu, surrounded by crimson light, showed no fear whatsoever.
The crashing waves, powerful enough to split mountains and shatter rocks, couldn't even break his skin, demonstrating his incredible physical strength.
Boom!
After the collision, Pang Xu also noticed something was wrong. His gaze sharpened as he looked at Duan Rushen.
"Your power seems to be inexhaustible?"
"The Divine River is vast, nurturing thousands of miles of mountains and rivers. I take the form of the Divine River and contemplate the Milky Way. How can you imagine its power?"
Duan Ru stood in the air, his blue robes flowing gracefully, exuding extraordinary presence.
The two had already exchanged blows several times, yet his expression remained calm and composed, as if he were not the one being attacked all along.
"You... really think you're invincible?"
Seeing the other party's arrogant demeanor, Pang Xu felt a surge of anger rising in his heart. His pupils transformed into a pair of crimson dragon eyes, and the blood energy around him surged even higher, breaking through the clouds and stirring up the wind and clouds.
He's really getting serious.
The crimson dragon coiled around its body, its aura still surging...
"For decades, it seems you've been digging into the power of this bloodline, single-mindedly trying to use this power for your own purposes, but you've also been swayed by your dragon nature..."
His judgment was as sharp as a god's, and his eyes were as bright as a torch; he had clearly seen through the other party's true nature.
His tone further ignited Pang Xu's anger.
Swayed by his dragon nature, his mental state had deteriorated considerably. Enraged, Pang Xu roared:
"Who do you think you are, pontificating about the world?"
With a long roar, surging blood energy rolled across the sky, and a crimson spear appeared in his hand, piercing through the void and heading straight for Duan Rushen.
This spear was incredibly sharp; wherever its crimson light reached, it burned everything in its path, tearing a long gash in the waves.
"Alright, since Senior Brother Pang is going to be serious, I won't hold back either."
Duan Rushen remained calm, and the waves behind him rose several times higher than before, spreading in all directions like a vast ocean. The surging waves seemed to extinguish the crimson light.
In an instant, the entire Ling family began to tremble, the shockwaves spreading for hundreds of miles around the city, creating a vast expanse of water that seemed to obscure the light of the sun.
It was as if that divine river, stretching for ten thousand miles, had truly descended upon this place.
Boom!
The azure waves surged to the sky, colliding with the crimson light.
After the terrifying collision, the vast Thousand Machine City shook, but fortunately, the magic array within the city was activated, which barely stabilized it.
The power of the gods is terrifying.
Many people watched with bated breath, as such a high-intensity exchange hadn't been seen in decades, while others were extremely excited.
The clash of martial arts masters is something that countless people yearn for.
As Lin Fan watched this scene, he was sometimes amazed and sometimes furrowed his brows, as if he had been drawn into this great battle.
"A true martial arts master should be like this..."
He murmured, wishing he could take his place right now.
"Your future achievements will certainly not be lower than those of any one of them."
Li Ming seemed to see through Lin Fan's thoughts and said calmly.
The other party's entry has changed a lot.
Not only is he blessed with good fortune, but his comprehension, innate qualities, and physique have all undergone a complete transformation, becoming top-notch in every aspect.
According to Lin Fan, he had a series of fortuitous encounters and gained many benefits in the previous month.
Even Li Ming couldn't help but sigh, "What goes around comes around."
Upon hearing Li Ming's assertion, Lin Fan's fighting spirit immediately soared.
Although his martial arts were crippled, he met Li Ming and turned misfortune into blessing. Not only did he condense a top-grade golden core, but the profound martial arts techniques of the past became easy to understand in his eyes.
He could only attribute this change to Li Ming.
As for why Li Ming did this, he didn't think much about it. After all, why would someone who is a cripple be worth scheming against?
The two were talking.
The battle in the sky has taken another turn.
Each terrifying collision caused a change in the celestial phenomena.
Pang Xu went completely berserk, showing no mercy, as if he had transformed into a rampaging dragon king, stirring up the sea of clouds.
From a distance, it looks like a crimson dragon descending to punish, burning everything in its path.
"Duan Rushen, you truly deserve to be called the number one person of the Shenjiang Sect in this generation. It's a pity that you are only at the initial stage of the Celestial Realm. You are still too young to stop me!"
Pang Xu laughed coldly.
His purpose in coming here was twofold: first, to gain some benefits; and second, to defeat Duan Rushen and suppress this rising star of the Shenjiang Sect.
It's not that he's narrow-minded or can't stand seeing others do well.
After all, with the arrival of this great era, if the Shenjiang Sect becomes too strong, the Jiuyang Sect will be the first to be threatened.
As a member of the Nine Yang Sect, he naturally had to share the sect's burdens.
Most importantly, as the number one prodigy of the Shenjiang Sect, Duan Rushen will definitely go to the Primal City to participate in the "Primal Secret Realm".
They are direct competitors to the geniuses of their Nine Yang Sect.
