255: 138 Dragon and Tiger Golden Body Shakes the Eight Directions_5 255: 138 Dragon and Tiger Golden Body Shakes the Eight Directions_5 “Although Wu Ming holds the third rank among Little Zen Peak disciples, I’ve heard that Wu Ming has even greater talent than Wu Que, who is ranked second.
It’s just that Wu Ming joined Little Zen Peak later and has had less time for cultivation, which is why his cultivation base is not as high as Wu Que’s.
But everyone at Little Zen Peak believes that it is only a matter of time before Wu Ming surpasses Wu Que.”
“Can’t the people from Four Treasures Peak challenge someone with a lower ranking?”
“It’s a vicious cycle, I guess, especially after that recent fight with Bei Yan.
They must have felt confident that Bei Yan could win, but instead, Bei Yan lost and didn’t get the Peak Bamboo they had calculated on gaining.
So now they have no choice but to continue challenging higher rankings to fight for even more Peak Bamboo.”
“But they have to win first.”
“How do you know for sure that Xiang Ziyu can’t win?
Haven’t you noticed from the two disciples from Four Treasures Peak that have fought before?
We can’t judge the disciples of Four Treasures Peak solely by their cultivation realm.”
“But Wu Ming is really too powerful.”
In the midst of the crowd’s murmuring, Yuan Ci’s face had already turned an iron blue from the direction of Little Zen Peak.
Four Treasures Peak, they’ve come again!
Deliberate, they must be doing this on purpose!
Although his two Little Zen Peak disciples had both won against Four Treasures Peak, one was gravely injured, and the other suffered a backlash.
Especially Wu Fa, when the Hundred Peaks Tournament ends, it’s questionable if he can still remain in the top two thousand.
Now Four Treasures Peak has come to challenge Little Zen Peak again.
Do they want to drag him down with them?
But to have a mutual destruction, he would also need the strength to do so.
Amidst the ongoing discussions in the crowd, Xiang Ziyu and Wu Ming had already descended onto the arena in succession.
Xiang Ziyu looked across at Wu Ming, who, despite his shaved head and monk robes, couldn’t hide his handsome features, and nodded slightly.
“You’re quite more handsome than your two senior brothers.
Indeed, as the main character, it is someone like you that I should be stepping on.”
“Those are my two senior brothers,” Wu Ming corrected while holding a staff as tall as his eyebrows.
Although he is third among the disciples of Little Zen Peak, having joined later than others, he still had to address Wu Fa and the other five as senior brothers.
“So, the junior brother is even stronger?
Then you must be what they call a genius,” Xiang Ziyu said with increasing excitement.
“Indeed, the main character always battles so-called geniuses.
You can perform the Yaksha Transformation that we just saw, right?
Don’t waste time, go ahead and use the Yaksha Transformation.” As he spoke, he had already taken out an Array Plate and expanded it.
Once more, everyone saw an identical Array Plate and became numb to it.
“Truly, it seems that every disciple of Four Treasures Peak could possess such an Array Plate.”
“Look carefully at the spear in his hand; it appears to be a divine weapon.”
“That is the Wind Overlord Spear of the Sixth Generation Peak Master of Sky Overriding Peak, overwhelmingly domineering!”
“The divine weapon in Wu Ming’s hand is no less formidable.
What he holds is the Chaotic Army Breaking Stick of the Seventh Generation Peak Master of Little Zen Peak!”
Zi Chen stood in the crowd, looking at the two divine weapons in Xiang Ziyu’s hand and felt that his previous decision was indeed correct.
Looking at Xiang Ziyu with both an Array Plate and divine weapons, how could he have fought Xiang Ziyu if he hadn’t insisted on not using divine weapons and treasures?
Even so, he lost at that time.
“Yaksha Transformation?” A look of disdain crossed Wu Ming’s face.
“You won’t have the chance to see it,” he declared proudly.
Sensing the constriction around his body, his face did not show any surprise; having just watched the battle between Wu Fa and Bei Yan from above, he understood that the formation map of Four Treasures Peak could restrain an opponent.
Restraint?
So what?
Did they really think he was as mediocre as Wu Fa and Wu Wei?
As his voice fell, ten Perfect Dao Platforms, ten Perfect Immortal Bridges, and ten Perfect inner cores all emerged behind him.
Among them, there were also eight Phenomenon Dao Platforms, seven Phenomenon Immortal Bridges, and five Phenomenon Pills!
Why was he called a genius?
Why was it believed that he would definitely surpass Wu Que, who had already condensed a Golden Core?
Because his talent was too astonishing!
Dao Platforms, Immortal Bridges, inner cores—all at Great Perfection!
And he was blessed with the Vajra body!
Xiang Ziyu grew even more excited as he looked at the Dao Platforms, Immortal Bridges, and inner cores and the Vajra phenomena behind Wu Ming: “Yes, this is more interesting, the greater the genius the better.”
Behind him emerged ten Phenomenon Dao Platforms, ten Phenomenon Immortal Bridges, and one Phenomenon Pill.
“This phenomenon!”
“What kind of phenomenon is this!”
From above, weaker disciples looking at the phenomena within Xiang Ziyu’s Dao Platforms, Immortal Bridges, and inner core felt an inexplicable urge to kneel in awe.
“Playing mysterious and profound games!”
Wu Ming sensed the overbearing and royal aura within Xiang Ziyu’s illusory shadow and snorted coldly.
His hands suddenly grasped the long stick in his grip, mana coursing rapidly through his body.
The next moment, he raised the long stick high and smashed it down mightily before him.
Despite the vast distance between him and Xiang Ziyu, it was as if Xiang Ziyu was right before his eyes when he swung down with that stick.
As the stick fell, suddenly, a colossal stick that seemed to pierce the heavens itself appeared within the skyline.
The stick crashed down with a thunderous impact, shaking the heavens along with it.
For a time, the earth shook, the mountains trembled, and the colors of the heavens and earth changed.
At that moment, every being between heaven and earth seemed to encompass only that single stick.
Vaguely, people felt as if a wrathful Vajra from ancient legends, wielding a giant stick, was smashing down upon them.
They even had the illusion that this single stick could destroy the whole of Immortal Gathering Peak.
With the fall of the stick, heaven and earth were in shock.
The stick was clearly a great distance away from Xiang Ziyu, yet when it fell, it aimed straight for the top of Xiang Ziyu’s head.
Vaguely, one could sense that the long stick was formed from countless golden Buddhist characters.
Buddhist chants accompanied by the whistling wind echoed through the Gathering Immortals Platform.
Around, everyone was greatly astonished.
“This is… Little Zen Peak’s Divine Skill, ‘Horizon is Within Reach’!
It seems far away but can instantly reach right before you.”
“Wasn’t this Divine Skill said to be lost?
When did Little Zen Peak find their heritage again?”
High above, Yuan Ci looked in the direction of Four Treasures Peak, a sneer appearing on her face.
Cao Zhen, you probably did not expect this today.
The transmission of ‘Horizon is Within Reach’ was not lost, only because the Four Agama Sutras were incomplete.
After completing the Four Agama Sutras, the disciples of Little Zen Peak could naturally cultivate the ‘Horizon is Within Reach’ Divine Skill.
Among them, Wu Ming possessed the highest talent, even higher than Wu Xiang’s, proving to be the one who cultivated ‘Horizon is Within Reach’ to the greatest profundity.
And the person who completed the Four Agama Sutras was none other than Cao Zhen.
Cao Zhen had lifted a stone only to drop it on his own feet.
Xiang Ziyu, watching the stick descending upon him, swiftly raised the long spear in his hand and held it horizontally in front of him.
Although he did not favor the spear, wielding a Divine Weapon was always better than being without.
High up, those who saw Xiang Ziyu’s actions were utterly perplexed.
“What is he doing?”
“Has Xiang Ziyu gone mad?
The opponent is using a Divine Skill, and he doesn’t use one in return but directly uses a Divine Weapon to block?”
“What is he thinking?”
At the Five Evils Gathering Place, Beichen Ying and the others widened their eyes in shock.
This Xiang Ziyu, he was playing his part a bit too poorly, wasn’t he?
If you want to lose, you should take a leaf out of your junior brother and sister’s books, lose in a way that no fault can be found.
Even in defeat, everyone would think that the two tried their utmost, and it’s a pity, believing that if not for bad luck or facing opponents who displayed extraordinary combat strength, they would have won.
What are you doing?
If you lose on purpose like this, and others guess our plot with Four Treasures Peak to gain Spirit Stones from the Hundred Peaks Competition, the Sect Leader will be the first to spare none of you.
They had previously studied the disciples of Four Treasures Peak and concluded that all the disciples were fine except for Xiang Ziyu, who was the least trustworthy, and, sure enough, Xiang Ziyu was causing trouble!
The next moment, the long stick smashed down heavily, and as it was about to hit the long spear held high by Xiang Ziyu, his hands suddenly turned, and the spear went from being held horizontally above his head to thrusting upwards, stabbing straight at Wu Ming!
‘Horizon is Within Reach’ was not just about an attack flying from a distance to nearby, but it instantly brought the entire person right in front of the opponent, and Wu Ming was already in front of him.
Xiang Ziyu had never intended to defend.
Defense, is that the protagonist’s approach?
For the protagonist, it is always offense as the best defense!
The protagonist always counters attack with attack, for retreating even a step is not the way of the protagonist!
