Chapter 1759: Chapter 1756: Night of the Full Moon, Forbidden Peak (Part 1)

"Understand what? Lin Tian, what kind of riddles are you and Aunt Wang playing?" Xiao Manxuan suddenly asked from behind, looking like a curious child.

Lin Tian turned his head to glance and found others had come over, all looking curious, except Xiao Manxue seemed to understand something.

"On a full moon night, atop Forbidden Peak, a sword from the west, Outer Heaven Flying Immortal." Lin Tian recited, smiling mysteriously. Of course, in Miss’s eyes, it was a smile that deserved a beating.

"Are you filming a movie?" Zhou Botong exclaimed in an exaggerated manner.

"Film your head, they’re going to duel, haven’t you heard of the battle at Forbidden Peak?" Miss glanced at him disdainfully.

"Duel..." Zhou Botong paused, but before he could finish speaking, a gust of wind blew through the room, and Lin Tian and Wang Wanxi on the sofa disappeared.

"Well, damn..." Although he’d seen Lin Tian’s speed before, this was too fast, but as soon as he finished speaking, another gust blew, and Xiao Manxue vanished too.

Zhou Botong spread his hands helplessly: "Alright, you are all Immortals, and I’m a mere mortal, is that okay?"

"Aren’t you going to follow them?" Zhou Botong saw Ou Qinglan and the others still sitting motionless, puzzled.

Ou Qinglan watched the quickly disappearing figures outside the door and said leisurely: "You already said it, they’re different from us, can you catch up?"

"Then why are they dueling?" Zhou Botong still looked confused.

"To intimidate, being low-key is good, but occasionally showing some martial prowess is not necessarily bad," Ou Qinglan said calmly.

Lin Tian and Wang Wanxi moved like the wind, rushing towards the seaside, with Lin Tian in front and Wang Wanxi behind. Although she couldn’t catch up to Lin Tian, she wasn’t left far behind.

Six streams of energy swirled around Wang Wanxi, like the energy of Liu He, or like six wandering dragons. Every time she tapped the ground, she floated over ten meters away, her movement technique as exquisite as her ethereal demeanor.

Lin Tian was different, having no Ancient Martial movement technique to speak of, just sheer speed, moving directly like a lightning bolt, refracting through rocky formations.

Behind them, there was another figure—Xiao Manxue. Although she was much slower, she pursued steadfastly, knowing that watching the experts duel would benefit her greatly, so she followed along.

Lin Tian and Wang Wanxi first left the villa, then raced along the coast, looking for a suitable location. Both knew that once they started fighting, the commotion would be considerable, and if they didn’t find a sparsely populated area, innocents might get hurt.

"Aunt Wang, if you don’t push harder, you won’t catch up to me." Lin Tian shouted excitedly, turning his head back.

"You brat, daring to talk to Aunt Wang like that, watch how I’ll teach you a lesson." Wang Wanxi shouted, her True Qi accelerating abruptly to the extreme, her speed suddenly soaring, closing the gap with Lin Tian.

Behind them, Xiao Manxue was dumbfounded when she saw this, thinking that if they kept accelerating, she’d eventually lose them. At this point, the distance between her and the two in front grew wider.

Perhaps her prayers worked, as Lin Tian was the first to leap onto a high pile of rocks. Shortly after, Wang Wanxi arrived too; when she stepped on the top, her True Qi retracted, and she stopped, more agile than any car’s brake, demonstrating the advantage of a Mid Innate expert.

"With Aunt Wang’s speed, it would be very difficult for me to sneak attack you," Lin Tian praised sincerely, having witnessed Wang Wanxi’s strength gradually increase, which wasn’t easy.

Wang Wanxi only smiled, looking at the rocks below the coast, and said: "The sea is full of scattered rocks, some protruding from the water, others hidden underneath. For boats, it’s a Land of Death, but it’s indeed a good place for combat."

"Let’s begin." Wang Wanxi decisively shouted, lightly tapping her foot, leaping from the shore towards the sea.

The rock top was more than ten meters above the sea level, and below were jagged rocks and crashing waves. An ordinary person jumping would have slim chances to land in the water, and if they hit the rocks, they’d surely be smashed to pieces.

But Wang Wanxi descended like a dragon entering the sea, spiraling downward, and just before reaching the bottom, her True Qi struck downward, slowing her momentum, then she landed steadily on a rock. Six streams of True Qi circulated around her, no matter how the surrounding seawater surged, it vaporized into steam upon approaching her, leaving her completely dry.

Xiao Manxue, having just arrived, was left slack-jawed, exclaiming: "The Wang Family’s Tai Chi Wandering Dragon Body Skill truly lives up to its reputation."

With a heroic laugh, Lin Tian also leaped into the sea, just like Wang Wanxi. Without any Ancient Martial movement technique, he naturally couldn’t be as graceful.

Just before hitting the bottom, he suddenly launched a punch, even across a distance, Xiao Manxue heard a thunderous boom. The surface of the water exploded, spraying water everywhere, but the sprayed water still couldn’t approach Wang Wanxi, vaporizing when near her.

Using the rebound force from his punch, Lin Tian flipped over and landed steadily on a rock, only a few meters away from Wang Wanxi.

Wang Wanxi watched him curiously, wondering, Lin Tian was obviously an expert, why didn’t he know any advanced Ancient Martial movement techniques? It was illogical.

Lin Tian, unaware of her thoughts, slightly raised his gaze, looking toward a farther part of the shore, where night had fallen like ink.

It seemed impossible to see anything, but Lin Tian still smiled: "Our pursuit seems to have alerted many, there are more than a few spectators now."

"Precisely, we need to show it to them. If there’s no audience, wouldn’t our effort be wasted? Come on, let me see if you’ve progressed since leaving Qingshuang Pavilion." Wang Wanxi laughed heartily, her ethereal aura transforming into that of a Female War God.

Her six streams of True Qi split into black and white strands, curling towards Lin Tian. Lin Tian stood calmly, allowing the True Qi to wrap around his arms. With a simple clench of his fists and a tremor of his arms, power erupted, and the two strands of True Qi were instantly shattered.

Just as the True Qi dissipated, a shadow suddenly enveloped him. Lin Tian slightly raised his eyes, seeing Wang Wanxi swooping in like an eagle, taking advantage of the moment Lin Tian shattered the True Qi, pressing down with a palm strike.

Although the Lifeless Tai Chi Secret Scripture is better at defense, the attack of an Innate expert is never weak. Before her palm arrived, the wind of her strike already made Lin Tian’s clothes flapping and pushed the seawater below into swirling chaos.

Lin Tian didn’t dodge or evade, punching into the sky with a thunderous boom, his fist clashed with the palm, and a violent shockwave spread in all directions, making the sea explode as if a bomb was thrown into it, spraying water sky-high.

But as the water sprayed into the air, it was evaporated into mist by the aftermath of the shockwave. No matter how the residual wave shook, it never got close to Wang Wanxi’s body; the six strands of True Qi around her acted like Protective Gang Qi, resilient and indestructible.
