After breaking through to dual sanctity in both sword and martial arts, Jun Changxiao’s entire temperament underwent a comprehensive sublimation, making him appear even more graceful and imposing.
“Sect Master!”
Just as he walked out of the great hall, Li Fei smiled and said, “You’re even more handsome than before!”
Jun Changxiao placed his hand on his disciple’s shoulder and smiled, “Your eye for detail is getting sharper and sharper. This seat is very pleased.”
System: “……”
“Sect Master.”
Li Qingyang approached and asked, “Are we still going to continue staying here?”
“No need.”
Jun Changxiao said, “Pack up and prepare to leave.”
All the tasks were completed. He planned to have Jiang Xie, Elder Ge, and the others take turns standing guard here, then wait for disciples to break through to peak Martial King and consume Enhancement Talismans to undergo training.
Moreover, he had already discussed it with Ke Jinnan.
They would engage in friendly sparring at regular intervals to deepen their relationship.
“Step.”
Jun Changxiao stopped at the martial training ground and mobilized his spatial power.
“Whoosh—”
He appeared out of thin air several dozen miles outside the stronghold and said, “Let me find a strong opponent for a good fight.”
Since he had stepped into dual sanctity of sword and martial arts, he absolutely needed to find an opponent with decent strength to measure just how strong he had become.
……
Lingyuan Continent stronghold.
Ke Jinnan, who had awakened from his death state, had bandages wrapped around his chest. He sat in the great hall discussing matters with several elders.
Truthfully speaking, using the Fake Death Pill to get away with it—now that he thought about it carefully, it was really quite unexpected.
“Sigh.”
One elder said bitterly, “Several hundred years ago, if our Lingyuan Continent had such pills and cooperation from the plane, how could we have achieved victory in the Slaughter Asura Battlefield at the cost of near-total annihilation?”
As an old-tier plane, they had been forced to declare war on other planes back then.
Although they achieved victory, casualties were severe, ultimately causing the continent’s top-tier forces to weaken considerably. Only now had they barely recovered.
“Valley Master.”
Another elder worried, “In the eyes of warriors from all planes, we have already perished. If they discover we’re still alive, how should we explain it?”
“This……”
Ke Jinnan fell into silence.
For two hundred thousand natural spirit stones, he had chosen to gamble. Although he won the bet, he hadn’t considered the aftermath at all.
Actually, he wasn’t worried about being discovered by plane warriors—what he feared was the upper realm finding out and descending punishment.
“Valley Master!”
A subordinate hurriedly came to report, “We just received news that Sect Master Jun fought several Earth-tier powerhouses and defeated them all in just a few moves.”
The elders’ mouths twitched.
Having just left the Slaughter Asura Battlefield less than a day ago, Jun Changxiao was already out causing trouble. Wasn’t he afraid of exposing himself?
Ke Jinnan didn’t consider this matter, but instead inquired, “Did Sect Master Jun use his divine weapons?”
Like warriors from all planes, he believed that Jun Changxiao could be so strong entirely due to divine weapon enhancement. Without them, his strength level was merely somewhere between Profound-tier and Earth-tier.
Indeed.
Before breaking through to dual sanctity, Dog Sheng’s true strength was at this level. To deal with Earth-tier powerhouses, he could only rely on his equipment to suppress them.
The subordinate said, “According to eyewitnesses, Sect Master Jun fought the Earth-tier powerhouses barehanded, and even…” He paused before continuing, “With one punch, he sent his opponent flying over twenty miles away.”
“What?”
Ke Jinnan and the elders immediately widened their eyes.
At their Earth-tier level, attacking lower-tier warriors could achieve this, but for Jun Changxiao to use his fists alone to send someone of the same level flying so far—how terrifying must his strength be!
……
“Boom!”
In a certain area of the battlefield, a heaven-shaking explosion suddenly rang out. A human figure flew like a cannonball from one end to another, covering a distance of over ten miles!
“Crack crack crack—”
At the source of the power explosion, space couldn’t bear the load and directly shattered, spreading infinitely in all directions.
Because it was at low altitude, the ground was affected. It seemed as if an invisible mountain had pressed down hard, causing an area of several hundred zhang to collectively sink.
If low-tier warriors saw this scene, they would definitely be scared weak in the knees.
“Pff!”
The middle-aged man who had been sent flying over ten miles clutched his chest and immediately spat blood, his eyes filled with shock.
Jun Changxiao stood in the low sky, his entire body shrouded in dense aura, giving people a feeling of being unstoppable.
“Too weak,” he shook his head.
The system remained silent and secretly felt fortunate that it hadn’t made a definitive judgment back then, or it would have been thoroughly slapped in the face again!
How so?
Because the middle-aged man who had been sent flying over ten miles was already comparable in strength to a Grade Five Martial Saint from Xingyun Continent.
A powerhouse of this level was sent flying so far by Jun Changxiao’s single punch, even coughing up blood—one could see just how terrifying the power was!
If it were the Grade Two or Three Martial Saints the system had mentioned earlier, one punch could probably send them from the Eastern Tang Dynasty all the way to the Western Heaven.
“Too terrifying!”
“Just came out of the Asura Battlefield, didn’t even rest, and immediately came to bully weaker Earth-tier powerhouses. Doesn’t he get tired?”
There were quite a few warriors in the surrounding area. At this moment, their eyes had completely widened, especially when looking at Jun Changxiao—it was like looking at a monster.
“Sect Master Jun.”
The middle-aged man suppressed his injuries, his face somewhat pale as he said, “Are you satisfied?”
“Satisfied.”
Jun Changxiao said, “You may leave.”
“Farewell!”
The middle-aged man cupped his fists, then flew away without looking back. Only after disappearing from everyone’s sight did he cough up another mouthful of blood and think to himself, “This person is far too much!”
He had originally been searching for opportunities when he was suddenly blocked by Jun Changxiao who wouldn’t let him leave unless he took one punch.
This Earth-tier powerhouse wasn’t the first unlucky one—there were several others before him, the most miserable having been sent flying over twenty miles with one punch.
“Who else dares to fight Jun?”
Jun Changxiao turned around, sweeping his gaze across the shocked warriors from various planes in the distance.
When the crowd’s eyes met his, their faces immediately showed alarm, then they hurriedly said, “Sect Master Jun’s strength is too formidable. We are no match!”
“Sigh.”
Jun Changxiao shook his head and said, “Go back and tell the others that the day after tomorrow, this seat will set up an arena outside Xingyun Continent’s stronghold, welcoming all Earth-tier powerhouses to battle. Anyone who can defeat this seat will receive one hundred thousand Six-Pointed Star Stones.”
Finding opponents on the battlefield was too difficult. He could only use spirit stones as enticement.
“One hundred thousand Six-Pointed Star Stones?” The plane warriors widened their eyes.
This type of martial dao resource came from the Nine Heavens Continent. If they obtained it, it would definitely significantly improve their realm!
Of course.
They also recognized that Jun Changxiao absolutely had confidence in his strength, otherwise only an idiot would dare to play like this and waste Six-Pointed Star Stones.
“Farewell!”
“See you again!”
The crowd didn’t dare linger and left as quickly as possible. News about Jun Changxiao setting up an arena outside the stronghold quickly spread throughout the battlefield.
Warriors without sufficient strength merely gossiped and discussed, while those who had reached Earth-tier were moved upon hearing the news.
With their strength, on the battlefield they could only pray for lucky encounters with opportunities to obtain martial dao resources. If they could defeat Jun Changxiao, they would receive one hundred thousand Six-Pointed Star Stones—undoubtedly extremely tempting!
“Decided!”
One Earth-tier powerhouse, after careful consideration, said, “The day after tomorrow, I’ll go to Xingyun Continent’s stronghold!”
“For one hundred thousand Six-Pointed Star Stones, I must give it my all no matter what!”
“This old man hasn’t felt such passion boiling in his blood for a long time. It feels like returning to my youth!”
“Since Jun Changxiao is so arrogant as to set up an arena challenging Earth-tier warriors, this lord naturally cannot disappoint him!”
More and more Earth-tier powerhouses decided to go to Xingyun Continent’s stronghold. Their reasons were twofold: first, for the Six-Pointed Star Stones, and second, to see just how strong that fellow really was.
When Lingyuan Continent learned of this matter, Ke Jinnan said admiringly, “Sect Master Jun is truly fierce!”
The Nine Heavens Continent also found out. Mo Shangsheng’s facial expression was quite interesting, after all, the one hundred thousand Six-Pointed Star Stones mentioned were all from his household!
