"Buzz~"
The deafening roar resounded throughout the entire venue.
The "Evil Hero's" attack mobilized too much of the power of heaven and earth; even though it wasn't aimed at anyone else, the aftershocks were already astonishing.
The residual force is already so great, so what will happen to Lin Ce, who is at the very center of this attack and bears the brunt of it?
Many people were looking in one direction.
That was where Lin Ce had stood, and also where the "evil swordsman" had struck.
Smoke and dust filled the air.
This attack not only completely destroyed the stands, but also created a huge crater in the ground.
Between the "villain" and the point of impact, the blade also carved out a huge trench.
In this situation, Lin Ce, who is merely a flesh and blood body, seems to have little chance of surviving.
Most noticeably, Su Caiying, who was standing some distance behind Lin Ce, had turned deathly pale.
Of all the people present, she was probably the one most worried about Lin Ce's safety.
But there was nothing she could do but watch from behind.
"Ouch...that hurts! You've hurt me!"
A voice rang out from the smoke and dust.
While everyone else was still looking bewildered, Su Caiying was already beaming with joy.
She recognized Lin Ce's voice, of course.
Sure enough, as the billowing smoke and dust gradually thinned, a figure emerged from it.
It was Lin Ce, who, with his innate level of cultivation, challenged the "evil knight," a half-master.
"How could he not die after such a terrible attack?"
Some martial artists were horrified.
"Fortunately, he was injured after all. Such a terrible blow, even if he survives, will certainly be severely injured, with broken arms and legs being the least of his worries..."
Some martial artists made such malicious speculations.
Seeing others in dire straits, they were clearly even more gloating.
Unfortunately, reality did not satisfy their perverse sense of humor.
Lin Ce appeared before everyone unharmed.
"Didn't you say you were injured?"
Some people looked at Lin Ce with a sense of bewilderment.
"Yes, he was indeed injured. Didn't you see the blood seeping from between his fingers as he clenched his fist?"
A sharp-eyed martial artist spotted this scene.
"That's right, the power of this attack was indeed beyond my expectations."
Lin Ce nodded, shook his hand, and flicked away the blood droplets.
Visibly, after the blood droplets were shaken off, a small wound on his hand healed rapidly.
"Could this be the unique feature of the 'Flawless Body'?"
The masters watching the battle exchanged glances, and the same thought arose in their hearts.
While they were aware of the special constitution of the Flawless Body, they were not fully aware of its specific unique characteristics.
Little did they know that while the flawless body was indeed powerful, Lin Ce's performance was not solely due to that reason.
The main reason is the integration of "Qingyan Breaking Mountain Fist".
Moreover, just at that very moment, he suddenly received a notification from the system.
Someone successfully escorted the goods and received the corresponding reward.
"Li Qingshan, just this one time, promoting you to head镖师 (bodyguard/escort) is already a worthwhile investment."
With this in mind, Lin Ce decisively used the skill points he had just received as a reward for escorting goods on his own martial arts.
In less than a breath, the "Green Cliff Mountain-Breaking Fist" had already risen to a new level.
[Qingyan Mountain-Breaking Fist (Sixth Level) Completed]
A power like a tidal wave surged forth, forming deep within his body.
In just a moment, Lin Ce could feel that his strength had changed dramatically.
"Is this... artistic conception?"
A thought struck him, and he vaguely sensed that something was different.
At this moment, he seemed to have a different understanding of the martial art "Qingyan Breaking Mountain Fist".
This insight seems to be what is called the artistic conception of martial arts.
No, at present, it is only in its initial stage.
Perhaps it should be called the rudimentary form of martial arts conception.
"My rudimentary martial arts concept seems to be named 'Mountain Breaker'?"
Lin Ce blinked, somewhat helplessly.
Besides these, he also discovered that his martial arts intent was not like that of other martial artists who could project their intent outwards and influence their surroundings.
His rudimentary martial arts concept could only remain within his body, at most enveloping his fist, which could be considered an external manifestation.
This is what makes the "Flawless Body" special, allowing him to progress in martial arts in ways that are different from those of ordinary martial artists.
It seems like I've thought about a lot of things, but in reality, it only took a blink of an eye.
The "villain" was indeed astonished that he had not been harmed.
But now that things have come to this, the "evil hero" certainly can't stop.
At that moment, he felt a jolt throughout his body, and his internal energy roared.
We're one step closer to completing the outdoor scenes.
This, of course, brought him a considerable increase in strength.
Those who are also masters are most sensitive to this change in him.
"How long has it been, and he's already broken through again?"
"If this continues, will he really do what he said before, and in one fell swoop today, completely achieve the Outer Realm and become a true Grandmaster?"
"Very likely..."
The masters looked very somber.
If they were previously only concerned about other things and didn't really care much about the "villain," things are completely different now.
During the war, their opponents, who had improved their strength several times, became increasingly difficult for them to deal with casually.
Unlike the other grandmasters who looked somber, the "evil knight" was unusually excited at this moment.
He certainly felt the changes within himself.
"Hahaha, interesting. I didn't expect that every breakthrough I made was brought about by you, kid. I'm almost reluctant to kill you."
The "evil hero" laughed triumphantly, "If I capture you and use you as a sparring partner, wouldn't I no longer have to worry about my progress in martial arts?"
Such remarks are obviously made in jest.
The "evil hero" also understood that the boy in front of him was obviously much more difficult to deal with than he had imagined.
If I hadn't just made another inexplicable breakthrough, it would have been really difficult to defeat my opponent in today's battle.
How could you let someone like that continue to grow stronger if he was your enemy?
The best course of action is to take advantage of the moment when my strength is overwhelming and kill him today, here and now.
The "evil hero" didn't think he was bragging.
In that last strike, he had already figured out his opponent's weaknesses.
The opponent had reached their limit after withstanding that attack.
Faced with a new attack after his strength has increased, the opponent will surely die a horrible death.
Unless, like himself, the other party has also undergone a major upgrade at this moment.
But how is that possible?
Breakthroughs in the heat of battle are not something commonplace that can be found everywhere.
The primordial energy surged, and an even greater amount of the power of heaven and earth was mobilized.
A massive longsword, as large as an ordinary mountain peak, slashed down towards Lin Ce.
