The scorching energy erupted from Xu Tianzhi’s swollen, crimson body.

Everything around him burned even more fiercely.

Flames scorched the moisture from the plants, producing crackling sounds.

"Ah... Ah..."

Suddenly, a few soldiers in Li Xuanji’s team caught fire.

Flames surged on them, then shot up high, spreading over their bodies.

The soldiers, unable to endure the heat, shouted loudly.

"Retreat further!"

Seeing this, Li Xuanji’s heart trembled, and he ordered the soldiers to retreat again.

At the same time, he commanded other soldiers to step on the flames on those on fire.

After issuing the orders, Li Xuanji looked towards Xu Tianzhi.

He couldn’t believe that aside from invoking the divine, Xu Tianzhi could perform such martial arts, pushing his potential to the extreme.

Xu Tianzhi had such power, yet he was escaping from the Abbot Kong Wo at the Great Buddha Temple; illustrating the strength of Kong Wo.

After Xu Tianzhi performed the Nine Yang Burning Body Technique, the True Qi in his meridians seemed to turn into flames.

Driven by his mind, it was all infused into the Nine Yang Thunderbolt.

In an instant, there was a booming sound.

The nine fireballs, already the size of a two-handed embrace, inflated again.

In mere moments, they were as long as a person, resembling nine miniature suns pressing towards Su Que.

Dark Evil Fist Seventh Heaven (9th Realm Shocking 39%), Dark Evil Fist Seventh Heaven (9th Realm Shocking 40%)...

After Xu Tianzhi’s power surged, Su Que’s Dark Evil Fist Seventh Heaven rose faster under pressure.

Xu Tianzhi’s Nine Yang Thunderbolt was resisted by Su Que’s Dark Fist Force, gradually pressing towards Su Que.

Confronted with such a deadly move, Su Que’s gaze didn’t waver in the slightest, still urging the Dark Evil Fist Force to fend off the nine enormous fireballs ahead.

"Hah!"

Xu Tianzhi shouted loudly, pushing the Nine Yang Thunderbolt forward again.

Xu Tianzhi felt deeply anxious.

He had invoked the divine and performed the Nine Yang Burning Body Technique, his power greatly amplified.

Yet, he still couldn’t crush the mysterious figure wearing the sinister mask before him.

Knowing that invoking the divine and then using the Nine Yang Burning Body Technique boosted his power significantly, but would also lead to faster exhaustion.

If he couldn’t defeat this person, his moment of weakness would be his doom.

Under Xu Tianzhi’s fierce push, the nine huge fireballs suddenly flattened.

Su Que pulled his right fist back, then struck forward again!

The Dark Evil Fist Force, like a flood, surged from his fist, charging towards the nine massive fireballs!

Boom!

The nine fireballs couldn’t withstand Su Que’s fist force, explosively shattering!

Flames mixed with Dark Evil Fist Force scattered in the air like fireworks.

At that very instant, Xu Tianzhi’s heart hardened, and he braced the ground with his feet, charging at Su Que.

His hands ignited with fierce flames, instantly forming two Flame Sabers.

’Fiery Sun Saber!’

This was a martial art acquired from mastering the Nine Yang Divine Skill.

The two flame sabers formed by Xu Tianzhi were a full twelve zhang, overwhelming the skies, radiating an imposing aura.

Xu Tianzhi swung his hands, the fiery serpents dancing of the flame sabers aimed to strike Su Que!

Dark Evil Fist Seventh Heaven (10th Realm Shocking the Ancients 1%)

Through the battle with Xu Tianzhi earlier, the Dark Evil Fist Seventh Heaven ascended swiftly.

Unnoticed, it had reached the 10th Realm Shocking the Ancients.

The Third Heaven of Dark Evil Fist Seventh Heaven had already been mastered.

Upon mastering this realm, one could awaken a skill: Unrivaled.

This skill allowed one to materialize energy into form, creating avatars.

Facing Xu Tianzhi’s Fiery Sun Saber, furiously slashing forward.

Su Que’s mind stirred, first utilizing the First Heaven ability of the Dark Evil Fist: Time Pause.

Black vortexes akin to tiny black holes appeared on each of his fists.

In the next moment, everything around seemed to be shrouded in darkness.

Time, in an instant, paused.

Xu Tianzhi’s facial expression suddenly froze.

His eyes stared straight ahead at Su Que.

The hands he swung down briefly halted in midair.

The two blazing Fiery Sun Sabers swinging down in the air also seemed to suddenly lose momentum, suspended in the air.

At this moment, Su Que’s heart moved.

From the darkened Dark Evil Fist Force surrounding him, a completely black figure suddenly separated!

Materializing energy into form to create avatars.

This figure was the result of him using the "Unrivaled" skill of the Dark Evil Fist Third Heaven.

Under his mind control, the avatar took on his current likeness.

Wearing martial attire, with a menacing mask on the face.

With a thought, the completely black avatar shot out from his Dark Evil Fist Force, rushing towards Xu Tianzhi. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

In the next moment, time resumed, and everything around seemed to regain its color.

Xu Tianzhi’s facial muscles started moving again.

His swinging hands fell once more.

The giant Fiery Sun Sabers, originally suspended in the air, now crashed towards Su Que like executioner axes.

Yet at that moment, Su Que’s ink-black avatar flew diagonally to Xu Tianzhi’s front.

With a thought, the avatar swung its right fist, smashing onto Xu Tianzhi’s chest with a deafening boom.

Xu Tianzhi felt as if struck by a meteor descending from the sky.

His entire form suddenly blurred as he flew backward.

Without the support of Nine Yang True Qi, the two giant Fiery Sun Sabers in the sky shattered like fireworks, scattering sparks in all directions.
