Urban Martial Saint

Shen Tianjun and the masked elder were rescued, yet Corpse Ghost Dragon and Great General Helian Tiehua stood face to face, very close to each other.

Corpse Ghost Dragon, in a fit of rage, upon seeing Great General Helian Tiehua, immediately roared, ”They got away, so you will die for me instead!”

As he said this, Corpse Ghost Dragon extended his right hand and directly pressed down towards Helian Tiehua’s head.

Helian Tiehua hurriedly raised his hand to block, but as Corpse Ghost Dragon said, the gap between them was completely one of higher realm. Corpse Ghost Dragon’s hand descended, effortlessly crushing Helian Tiehua’s arm down as well. Helian Tiehua couldn’t hinder him in the slightest.

Seeing that his hand was about to press down on Helian Tiehua’s head, it must be noted that while Helian Tiehua had the Thirteen Protectors’ Horizontal Golden Bell Shield, it was still inferior to the Buddhist Golden Body. If Corpse Ghost Dragon’s hand landed, even if Helian Tiehua didn’t die, he would be half-crippled!

At this critical moment, three other people rushed over from behind, attacking Corpse Ghost Dragon from three directions. These three were none other than the Purple Robe Lama, Ding Lianshun, and Yin Xianzi.

The Purple Robe Lama had practiced the Crossing the River with a Reed technique left by Patriarch Bodhidharma, while Ding Lianshun and Yin Xianzi had practiced the Carefree Movement from Ancestor Chen Tuan, all achieving Qinggong far beyond ordinary people. Although not as swift as Helian Tiehua’s A Stone’s Throw Away, their speed was still much faster compared to others.

The three rushed in, and Corpse Ghost Dragon didn’t pay attention to them, focusing solely on finishing Helian Tiehua. Seeing this situation, the three exerted their full strength, all three moves landing on Corpse Ghost Dragon.

Even though Corpse Ghost Dragon was incredibly powerful, these three were still peak masters, especially the Purple Robe Lama, one of the Five Unmatches of the World. The trio’s combined attack forced Corpse Ghost Dragon back half a step; though uninjured, it made his arm sway slightly.

Taking this opportunity, Helian Tiehua roared, managing to free himself from the grip of Corpse Ghost Dragon’s hand. He promptly retreated, and, combined with Corpse Ghost Dragon’s swaying arm, this action let him evade. Although Corpse Ghost Dragon couldn’t grab Helian Tiehua’s head, he left several bloody marks on his shoulder.

Seeing this, the surrounding crowd gasped in shock. It was known that Helian Tiehua’s Thirteen Protectors’ Horizontal Golden Bell Shield couldn’t be penetrated by Famed Instruments, and yet Corpse Ghost Dragon had scratched his shoulder, showcasing his mighty strength. His entire body seemed even more formidable than a Famed Instrument!

Corpse Ghost Dragon, having failed to kill Helian Tiehua, was furious, letting out a wild roar, spreading his arms wide as he bellowed, ”None of you will escape!”

As Corpse Ghost Dragon spread his arms, a strong force of suction emerged from him, drawing all three who came to rescue Helian Tiehua toward him. Even though the three were peak masters, Corpse Ghost Dragon’s power was far superior, and they couldn’t escape.

Seeing this, Helian Tiehua once again charged his strength, the ultimate move of A Stone’s Throw Away was unleashed instantly, striking directly toward Corpse Ghost Dragon. In the blink of an eye, Helian Tiehua was upon Corpse Ghost Dragon, throwing a heavy punch at him.

Corpse Ghost Dragon neither dodged nor avoided, continuing to channel his power, enduring Helian Tiehua’s punch directly without any damage. On the contrary, Helian Tiehua was also caught by his force, unable to retreat.

The four top-level masters were all drawn to Corpse Ghost Dragon’s power, rapidly approaching him.

In the distance, Shen Tianjun and the masked elder, witnessing this, were equally shocked. They rushed over simultaneously, unleashing Karmic Retribution and Endless Cycle to form a large circle around Corpse Ghost Dragon, attempting to temporarily suppress him.

Corpse Ghost Dragon had previously suffered under this combined attack and was fully aware of its potent power. Now, seeing them coming again, he was enraged. He freed a hand, spread his fingers wide, and reached for the large circle. Suddenly, he swiftly closed his fingers, forming a fist. It was as if he had grasped the circle, and it shrank instantly. Nevertheless, the power within the circle was immense; as it contracted, its compressed strength grew even more terrifying.

Corpse Ghost Dragon tightly held the hand, now having no time to concern himself with Helian Tiehua and the others, focusing entirely on restraining the large circle. Meanwhile, Helian Tiehua and the others seized this chance, quickly retreating to escape Corpse Ghost Dragon’s vicinity.

”Trying to escape!” Corpse Ghost Dragon shouted angrily, suddenly swinging the hand that held the large circle toward Helian Tiehua and the others. The large circle seemed gripped in mid-air, and as he swung, it flew directly at the four.

Seeing the situation unfold, Shen Tianjun and the masked elder’s faces changed dramatically, Shen Tianjun exclaimed urgently, ”Run!”

On the other side, Great General Helian Tiehua and his group of four knew the danger as well, but no matter how fast they were, their speed couldn’t match the power of the Corpse Ghost Dragon. The large circle closed in quickly, and when it approached not far behind them, the Corpse Ghost Dragon suddenly released its fist, freeing the large circle.

The power of the large circle had been compressed to the extreme by the Corpse Ghost Dragon, and now, as it was suddenly released, the compressed power exploded. At that moment, it was like a terrifying bomb exploding nearby; its powerful force directly knocked the four people away until they collided with a distant rock wall, where they finally stopped, all injured.

Fortunately, before coming here, Ye Qing had distributed the Devouring Demon Flower to them. The moment they landed, all four quickly took out the Devouring Demon Flower and swallowed it, and its power rapidly healed their injuries, giving them the strength to fight again.

”Taking medicine now, don’t you think it’s too late?” The Corpse Ghost Dragon laughed coldly, scanning everyone present, saying, ”I heard you have acquired the Secret Technique from Patriarch Bodhidharma, why not display it for me to see? Hahaha, if you don’t show it now, you won’t have the chance to do so later!”

Everyone’s faces were extremely grim; gathering so many peak masters, yet in front of the Corpse Ghost Dragon, they didn’t gain any advantage at all. The Corpse Ghost Dragon’s power was far too formidable.

”Corpse Ghost Dragon, don’t be too complacent!” Helian Tiehua said in a deep voice, ”Tonight, you will certainly meet your end here!”

”Oh, really?” The Corpse Ghost Dragon laughed loudly, ”Hahaha, what an exaggerated boast. Just relying on you, unable to break through my Indestructible Demon Body, dreaming of killing me? What a joke!”

”Your Indestructible Demon Body isn’t perfect yet, it’s not fully realized, so it naturally has flaws.” Shen Tianjun said in a deep voice, ”Corpse Ghost Dragon, you haven’t reached the highest realm of the Indestructible Demon Body, not yet Undying and Indestructible. Today, you’re certainly doomed!”

”Ridiculous! Even though I haven’t reached the Undying and Indestructible realm, an Indestructible Demon Body is more than enough to deal with you.” The Corpse Ghost Dragon said coldly, ”The realm of the Indestructible Demon Body far surpasses your so-called peak, a realm you will never touch in your lifetime. This is a difference in realm, like a top-level master unable to break Great General Helian Tiehua’s Thirteen Protectors’ Horizontal Golden Bell Shield because a top-level master’s power is simply insufficient to break it. And now, you’re the same; your realm is not enough to break the Indestructible Demon Body. Even if I haven’t reached the Undying and Indestructible realm yet, killing you is as easy as flipping my hand!”

”Ridiculous! Do you think you’re a Buddhist and Taoist demon, capable of crushing us by realm?” Ding Lianshun said coldly, ”Throughout history, the peak is the human pinnacle. Corpse Ghost Dragon, do you think you’ve become a god?”

”The human pinnacle?” The Corpse Ghost Dragon burst into laughter, ”Hahaha, this is the biggest joke I’ve heard. You fools really think the peak is the human pinnacle of power? Hmph, all of you live your lives in someone else’s lies, and you think so highly of yourselves. Today, I’m going to show you what surpassing peak power truly is!”

The Corpse Ghost Dragon’s words left everyone on this side stunned. According to the Corpse Ghost Dragon, the peak was not the pinnacle of human power. And in fact, since they consumed the Devouring Demon Flower, everyone had vaguely suspected that there were realms above the peak. It’s just that all these years, people have believed the peak to be the ultimate limit of human power. Hearing the Corpse Ghost Dragon say this, it’s clear everyone’s understanding is wrong, could it be there are realms above the peak?

The Corpse Ghost Dragon didn’t give them time to think, once more roared angrily, sweeping his arms horizontally across his chest, a strong force immediately whipped up a fierce wind, rushing towards everyone here.

The fierce wind howled, breaking all trees in its path. The immense force swept up surrounding crushed stones and fine sand, and when it reached everyone, it had already turned into a sandstorm, sweeping in with terrifying power.

Here, everyone facing this sweeping force was already prepared. Nalan Jingwei stood at the forefront, and where he walked, golden lotus bloomed everywhere; eight golden lotuses rose simultaneously, forming a golden wall to block the sweeping force.

However, when the force rapidly rushed in, Nalan Jingwei’s expression changed suddenly. Because he was quite aware of his move’s power, it seemed insufficient to resist this force.

”Sect Leader, assist me!” Nalan Jingwei shouted, having no retreat at this moment.

The Blood Robe Sect Leader stood not far away and, hearing Nalan Jingwei’s shout, immediately rushed to assist. The power of Enlightenment Bodhi was simultaneously infused into Nalan Jingwei.

This Enlightenment Bodhi can not only calm the mind and sharpen the sight but also enhance one’s power, truly miraculous. As the power was infused into Nalan Jingwei, he felt a clarity throughout his body. With a low exclamation, the eight golden lotuses in front of him seemed with newfound strength at this moment, glowing with dazzling golden light, astonishingly brilliant.
