Chapter 727: 789 Chapter 727: 789 Chapter Seven Hundred Eighty-Nine
Boom!
Crack!
Bang!
Atop the Silver Dragon Cliff, two figures danced back and forth at such speed that the naked eye could hardly catch them.
Their punches and kicks, with every collision, exploded like grenades, creating violent bursts of air, causing the entire cliff to tremble.
Long Xiaoshan’s External Incarnation, an Ancient Exotic Breed, possessed an unparalleled powerful physical body.
Since last devouring Qiu Zhen, and continuously nurtured by the Spiritual Liquid provided by Long Xiaoshan, it had improved beyond comparison.
...
It was several times more powerful than the Heavenly Silkworm freshly emerged from its cocoon in Death God Valley.
In its actions, it bore the unstoppable momentum of the vast primeval wilderness.
Should he face Qiu Zhen again, there would be no need for the Devouring Divine Power; simply relying on the sheer strength of his physical body and demonic power, he could burst Qiu Zhen apart.
However, the battle with Tang Honghu

had shown him what a real Grandmaster was.
Compared to veteran Grandmasters like Qiu Zhen and Tang Honghu,
the former was outclassed by several folds.
Qiu Zhen could unleash but couldn’t retract his power.
Though called a Grandmaster, he was still half a step away from truly entering the Grandmaster Realm; whereas Tang Honghu had stepped into the Grandmaster Realm decades ago.
Even though he was advanced in age and his physical strength was not at its peak,
his understanding of the Martial Dao was profound and masterful, his Gang Qi pure and mighty, and with every move, he could draw upon the Force of Heaven and Earth, effortlessly releasing or containing power—explosive like a volcano when unleashed, and as elusive as mist when withdrawn.
The two fought to an impasse.
If not for Long Xiaoshan’s incredibly strong Body of a Monster Beast, Tang Honghu’s superior comprehension of martial arts would have already overwhelmed him.
Yet, he fought more fiercely as the battle waged on.
With a never-ending flow of demonic power and leveraging his formidable physical body, his attacks were as desperate as a strategy of mutual destruction, clinging to Tang Honghu with ferocious assaults.
The more Tang Honghu fought, the more alarmed he became.
His eyes betrayed a hint of shock.
He could clearly feel that his Martial Dao strength was superior to his opponent’s, but somehow, Long Xiaoshan’s “Inner Strength” was robust, not at all inferior to his, and his physical body was incomparably tough, his speed lightning-fast.
It was only with difficulty that one of his palms landed on his opponent.
The opponent tumbled through the air, but in the blink of an eye, was back leaping and bounding into the fray.
Whereas a mere graze from the opponent’s fist caused Tang Honghu’s protective Gang Qi to shatter, almost forcing a mouthful of old blood from him.
No matter how vivid Tang Honghu’s imagination was,
he could never conceive that he was not battling a human, but fighting an Ancient Exotic Breed.
Rumble!
As their fight escalated into a climax!
More and more craters appeared on the cliff.
A punch from Long Xiaoshan, grazing Tang Honghu’s frame, crashed into the ground, creating an unfathomably deep pit.
With a sweep of Tang Honghu’s leg, a gigantic crack over ten meters long appeared on the ground.
Seeing the cliff riddled with holes within a radius of several dozens of meters,
the onlookers trembled uncontrollably.
“This isn’t human at all!”
“Is this what a Grandmaster is?
My God!
Too terrifying!”
Among the hundreds of Hidden Sect powerhouses present, very few had ever witnessed a Grandmaster in action, let alone seen two Grandmasters clash.
At the level of Grandmaster, exalted and above mundane concerns, seldom were there life-and-death battles without deep hatred.
Even sparring was typically a casual exchange of moves.
A few probing moves to gauge the opponent’s depth were usually enough.
They seldom fought like Tang Honghu and Long Xiaoshan, each with a fiery intensity and full force deployed.
Fu Xuelan’s clear pupils reflected the two battling silhouettes on the cliff, a wry smile appearing on her fair, creamy face as she whispered softly, “No wonder, you regard our Bodhisattva Gate as insignificant.
Just a young man, already an Alchemy Grandmaster, and in martial arts, you’ve reached the pinnacle.
In this vast world, I fear there are already few things that can catch your eye!”
Her fists clenched tight.
Slowly relaxed, the hint of unwillingness in her eyes completely dissipating.
No matter how proud Fu Xuelan’s heart was, when the gap was unimaginably wide, she had already lost even the thoughts of jealousy and pursuit.
It seemed, in this world.
There truly were some people destined to be the protagonists.
No matter how hard others tried, they were but leaves meant to highlight their presence.
Crack, crack!
Accompanied by the extremely violent battle between the two individuals.
Everyone felt the ground tremble, as if an earthquake was occurring.
A giant fissure was continuously extending beneath their feet.
“Not good!
The cliff is going to collapse!”
People cried out in alarm.
The place where they were standing moments ago was a slightly protruding chunk of cliff that weighed thousands of tonnes, with the ceaseless flow of the Silver Dragon Waterfall below.
Due to the overwhelming power of the two Grandmasters, their strikes constantly hammered upon the massive cliff.
Finally, it could no longer bear the force, and signs of fracture appeared.
People fled in panic, flying back into the distance, seeking refuge in the Tang Family Manor.
Even Tang Xun, the head of the Tang Family, ran out.
The residual shockwaves of the two combatants’ punches and kicks had almost blasted him to death.
In the blink of an eye, only Tang Honghu and Long Xiaoshan remained on the cliff.
The two had been entangled in a fight for a long time.
Although Tang Honghu had been maintaining the advantage.
Long Xiaoshan’s physical body was too strong to be killed.
And as his offense continued.
After all, he was a man nearing a hundred years old.
Even though he was of a Grandmaster’s physique, his stamina could not compare with his younger self, and in the end, he was caught by Long Xiaoshan in a lapse.
A palm strike hit his chest—bang—and Tang Honghu’s protective Gang Qi exploded, his body tumbling until he finally stopped at the edge of the cliff.
Tang Honghu’s face was ashen.
A trace of fresh blood hung from the corner of his mouth.
He struggled to his feet, watching Long Xiaoshan who was steadily approaching.
The cliff trembled beneath his feet, loose stones continuously falling into the raging waterfall below, yet Long Xiaoshan’s expression did not change in the slightest, showing no concern for the cliff that was about to collapse.
“Long Xiaoshan, how about we cease this battle now?
At our level, there is no feud that cannot be resolved.
Those juniors of mine, offending a Grandmaster, they deserve to die!
I will absolutely not bear grudges, and furthermore, I can see that although you possess the strength of a Grandmaster, your Martial Dao realm is not high.
In this regard, we can exchange insights.
I would surely impart everything I know.
We both are from Xichuan.
If we join hands, who else could rival us in the Southwest Hidden Gates in the future!”
“What’s more, the Tang Family’s century-long foundation is lacking a successor.
If you take a daughter from the Tang Family, after my hundred years have passed, the entire Tang Family would be yours; would that not be wonderful?”
Tang Honghu’s eyes flashed as he spoke confidently, analyzing the pros and cons.
True to his reputation as an old fox.
Seeing that the situation was beyond his control, he immediately switched tactics.
He believed Long Xiaoshan would definitely see the huge benefits; as long as Long Xiaoshan was not a fool, he would surely accept his condition.
As long as he survived this ordeal, he would find a way to kill Long Xiaoshan eventually.
A Grandmaster may be strong, but he was not beyond scheming against.
With a trap set up like a net in the heavens and on earth, even a Grandmaster could be slaughtered!
“Really?” Long Xiaoshan chuckled with a snap of his fingers.
“But I think by killing you, the Tang Family would still be mine.”
Tang Honghu’s face darkened, and he said sharply, “Long Xiaoshan, I’m offering you a way out in good faith.
Don’t make a mistake.
Do you really think you’re assured of victory?
I, Tang Honghu, have lived for nearly a century; how could I not have some trump cards?
It’s quite simple to drag you down with me, but that’s meaningless.”
