Urban All-Round Master

”Leaving so soon?” Shen Ji gritted his teeth, having lost two peak masters of the Divine Sky Sect. As the sect leader, Shen Ji finally realized the situation was getting more severe. If he couldn’t kill the culprit now, how could he maintain his dignity within the sect? Shen Bingxue was killed, Shen Huadong died tragically. Now only Shen Ji, Shen Wuji, and Shen Zhan remained. This was undoubtedly a brutal slap in the face. If the news got out, the Divine Sky Sect’s reputation would be utterly ruined. This was something no one in the Divine Sky Sect wanted to see.

Meanwhile, Lin Zifeng grabbed Da Xiong and Xiao Xiong, pulling them back forcefully. They had to leave immediately. The greatest opponent of the Divine Sky Sect was Shen Wuheng. If Shen Wuheng arrived personally, this battle would be without suspense. Lin Zifeng wasn’t foolish. He naturally understood the principle of knowing when to stop.

”Shoo, shoo, shoo~” Shen Wuji’s eyes were bloodshot, being knocked away by Lin Zifeng’s Heavenly Painting Halberd, with a long bloodstain scratched across his abdomen. If not for his strong abilities, this moment’s combat power could have easily cost him his life. Considered the peak master of the Divine Sky Sect’s first main peak, today he was beaten incredibly aggrieved multiple times. This pent-up anger made Shen Wuji almost spit blood. But Lin Zifeng didn’t care about his feelings; he just aimed to quickly get everyone out of this ghostly place. Since he couldn’t obtain the Immortal Suppressing Tripod, he had to ensure everyone’s safety. If the people of South Heavenly Gate faced a mishap here, then Lin Zifeng would become the sinner of South Heavenly Gate.

”Go!” Lin Zifeng forcefully threw off Da Xiong’s and Xiao Xiong’s bodies, choosing to stay behind and cover the retreat. Da Xiong and Xiao Xiong were reluctant to leave immediately. Lin Zifeng vigorously lifted a huge stone with the Heavenly Painting Halberd and smashed it in front of Da Xiong and Xiao Xiong, blocking their path of advance, forcing them to leave. The situation was so dire now that if they refused to go, only Lin Zifeng would suffer.

”Roar! Roar!” Da Xiong and Xiao Xiong roared loudly but reluctantly turned to linger not far away, leaving Lin Zifeng alone to stand guard in front of the Broken Mountain. Holding the Heavenly Painting Halberd, his outfit flapped noisily in the fierce wind.

”Hear me, people of the Divine Sky Sect. I, Lin Zifeng, declare that South Heavenly Gate and the Divine Sky Sect shall fight to the death!” Lin Zifeng bellowed, standing against the crowd like an ancient War God, guarding the front, daring anyone to come forward; he vowed to fight them to the death!

”Such arrogance will come at a heavy price!” Shen Ji swooped down, wielding the Purple Energy War Spear, aiming directly at Lin Zifeng from dozens of meters away. The Purple Energy War Spear ripped through the Void resistance, piercing toward Lin Zifeng with unmatched force.

Seeing the people of South Heavenly Gate already retreating in the distance, while Da Xiong and Xiao Xiong refused to leave not far away, snapping and roaring repeatedly—a sudden curve of coldness appeared at the corner of Lin Zifeng’s mouth. This minor change was immediately noticed by Shen Ji. However, once he noticed, it wasn’t of much use. The Purple Energy War Spear descended from the sky, and as the spear cut through the long space, Lin Zifeng wielded the Heavenly Painting Halberd with one arm, cutting through the air to produce dazzling Divine Rainbows, which then fiercely collided with the descending Purple Energy War Spear.

”Poh!”

The Heavenly Painting Halberd trembled slightly in his hand, while the opponent’s Purple Energy War Spear was completely scattered between heaven and earth. ”Kid, this time you’re dead!” Just as the Heavenly Painting Halberd broke the Purple Energy War Spear, Shen Ji swooped down at maximum speed, his five fingers spread like a dragon, covering the sky, shrouding every inch of it. Lin Zifeng found it difficult to lift the Heavenly Painting Halberd again.

”Whoosh~” Shen Wuji also leapt forward, following Shen Ji as the Purple Energy War Spear shot out. Two great masters partnering made it extremely difficult for Lin Zifeng to react quickly, no matter how capable. But just as Shen Wuji moved, a black beam suddenly shot out from behind them. The black beam was incredibly concealed, and if it weren’t for Lin Zifeng’s X-ray vision, it would be hard to catch.

”Gaga~ When I make a move, the mountains crumble and follow me.” Just as Lin Zifeng was in grave danger, the sharp voice of Dashuaige echoed across Great Wilderness Mountain.

”What! It’s actually not dead!”

Shen Wuji felt a cold sweat on his back immediately. Because that sound originated from behind him, a minor slip-up could place him in dangerous circumstance. But when Shen Wuji turned around in response, Dashuaige had already transformed into a sharp black beam and dashed toward his back, swinging a muscular forearm with forceful focus on Shen Wuji’s back, sending a powerful blow. Shen Wuji, unable to react in time, felt immense pain in his back, spat out reverse blood with a ”wa” sound, and as he turned, Dashuaige’s fierce claws grabbed forward violently. Puh puh puh... Blood gushed forth as five sharp bloodstains appeared on Shen Wuji’s back.

Blood cascaded like a waterfall, filling the sky. This time, Shen Wuji was seriously injured, his back’s flesh torn apart mercilessly.

This pain brought tears to his eyes.

”Urgh!”

Shen Wuji spun furiously, interweaving his hands to conjure a fiery mass, aiming for a major counterattack, yet Dashuaige wouldn’t give him any chance.

”Heh, kid. I, mighty Ao have shown mercy. What’s up? Got a problem~ Wanna pick a fight with mighty Ao? Come on then!”

Dashuaige’s voice reverberated throughout, swiftly turning into a black beam, avoiding direct conflict with Shen Wuji.

”Kill that beast!”

Shen Wuji bellowed madly toward the sky.

Shen Zhan, who was insanely burning his life force, gradually weakened, wishing to chase Dashuaige for a fatal blow. However, his Primordial Energy was depleting rapidly, until ultimately, he lacked the strength for any action.

Dashuaige descended from above, casually swatting the ground with his muscular forepaws. Shen Zhan gritted his teeth, his face contorted, attempting to fend them off with his arms. The sheer force immediately sent him flying out.

He spat out blood with a ”wa” sound.

”Now’s the chance!”

Lin Zifeng saw Dashuaige succeed in his ambush and successfully diverted Shen Ji’s attention, immediately making his move without hesitation, despite great expenditure. The Heavenly Hand enveloped upwards.

Simultaneously with Shen Ji’s Mysterious Skill eruption.

Seizing the momentum, aiming directly at Shen Ji’s space.

”Barrier!” Lin Zifeng deployed his barrier intending to control the enemy and then using his Space Gravity to crush Shen Ji. Success wasn’t necessary, as his backup plan was the Heavenly Painting Halberd.

Almost ignoring Shen Ji’s attacks, with cultivation realm heightening again, he felt immensely confident in controlling Shen Ji.

”You beast! You’re actually alive!”

Shen Ji’s eyes turned scarlett, gritting his teeth in hatred. Apparently, Dashuaige was supposed to have been killed by the Immortal Suppressing Tripod, unexpectedly still alive. This was the fact Shen Ji could not fathom.

But how would he know that someone like Dashuaige, having lived through endless ages, had experienced life and death more than once—which had almost become as routine as eating meals.
