Chapter 1328 The Elder's Wish
The words spoken by the woman in red on the stage were like a thunderclap from a clear sky.

This involves Huang Chao, who lost his integrity and died that very night.

It also involves Zhou Nian, the martial arts fanatic and leader of the Quan Yi Men sect, who is also well-known in the martial arts world.

But what truly surprised them was...
Zhou Nian, with his ninth-rank strength, fought Sheng Zhijing to the death in the northern desert!
And
Zhou Nian has come up with a fist technique that breaks the divine drum that all martial artists in the world practice.

Even those who were martial artists or ordinary people present, even if they didn't understand what the person in red was saying, could still sense the astonishment in their eyes.

But those who understand are not fools; they are extremely clear about what the Ninth Rank Victory Realm means, and they are even clearer about what will happen to a martial artist if the Divine Man's Fist Technique is broken.

A martial art that is unparalleled in the world is worlds apart from a martial art that has techniques to break it.

Everyone stared intently at the red-clad figure on the stage, holding their breath and listening intently.

Huangquan Sect's Zhu Su then spoke up: "How can you prove it!"

The way he spoke made it clear that he was planning to go into the ring.

After all, Zhu Su had practiced the Divine Drum for decades and barely managed to break through the eleventh level, his fists already capable of shattering mountains and rivers.

Although Zhou Nian was once at the Zhijing realm, how could a ninth-rank cultivator devise a method to break the Divine Man's Fist Technique, and how did he manage to defeat Zhijing?

Su Chang'an looked at Zhu Su and shook his head: "I have practiced the Divine Drum to the twelfth level. I once sparred with Senior Zhou Nian. When I saw Senior Zhou Nian's punch, I knew that the punch could break the power of the Divine Drum. Unfortunately, I won that battle because I was at the limit level, while Senior Zhou's strength had regressed to the limit level. Otherwise, it would be hard to say."

Zhu Su's pupils contracted, and she blurted out instinctively, "The twelfth floor?!"

Back then, he sat face to face with Huang Chao, who told him that if someone could master his divine drumming skills to the twelfth or even thirteenth level, then all the martial arts practitioners in the world would have to bow down to him as they do to him!
boom!
Su Chang'an looked at Zhu Su without saying much. But the moment he released the fist intent from his body, a powerful and majestic fist intent suddenly pressed down on the hearts of everyone present!

Zhu Su trembled, looking at the woman on the arena with golden patterns all over her hands in disbelief.

Especially noticeable is the flow of fist intent throughout his body, and his golden eyes.

The fist's intent remained alive, as if a god had descended.

Zhu Su was not the only one who witnessed this scene. At that moment, not only those martial artists who had reached the pinnacle of their cultivation, but also those who had not yet reached the pinnacle, all looked at the woman on the arena as if she were the heavens.

With Huang Chao's death, all the warriors in the world could see the blue sky and climb to the top to become the next leader of warriors.

But right now.
Everyone stared at the woman on the arena, and their bodies trembled for no apparent reason.

"Good heavens, this is incredible!" Huo De Dao Ren tugged at Duanmu Wenya's shoulder, staring intently at the woman with golden eyes beneath her mask, her hair wreathed in arcs of lightning. "This isn't Li Yunxian, this is the new Huang Chao!?"

Wang Changcao shook his head: "It is not Huang Chao, but the leader of all the martial arts masters in the world."

The monk Long Shi appeared out of nowhere and squinted at Su Chang'an, saying, "She's a woman who practices martial arts. There's going to be someone who writes a new story in the martial world."

The old celestial master smiled without saying a word, only looking at the Empress. In fact, he was also a little surprised. Unbeknownst to him, the Empress had actually mastered the Divine Drum to the twelfth level.

Especially this boxing manual; judging from the boxing intent it just revealed, it has probably already reached a high level.

Even though Xie Xie had lost, he clutched his chest with one hand, and blood was still flowing from the corner of his mouth. He was still in defeat, but looking at the red-clad figure on the stage...

It's only natural that we lost!

Bang!
Zhu Su leaped up and jumped directly onto the arena.

The moment his feet touched the ground, the hunched old man straightened his back, exuding an aura of wildness. His entire body was covered in golden patterns, including his face!
The immense fist intent burst forth with a thunderous roar.

It wasn't about competing with Su Chang'an's fist intent, but rather...
Never give up!
The old man, who was originally hunched over, now had a majestic presence. He raised his hand and clenched his fist, his cloth clothes were stretched by his muscles, and his eyes were full of energy and spirit, which was unparalleled!

It's like an old man explaining a principle to a woman in front of him.

I have yet to be defeated!
This position of martial arts champion is not for you!

"Zhu Su of the Yellow Spring Sect has broken the rules of the Celestial Master today, and will naturally apologize afterward. However, since the intent of the fist has been expressed, there is no way to retreat, nor does he intend to. Please forgive him, Celestial Master!"

Zhu Su looked in the direction of the old Celestial Master and bowed with clasped hands.

The old celestial master laughed and said, "Just keep hitting."

Zhu Su clasped his hands in a fist salute again, then looked at Su Chang'an and said, "Girl, this old man wants to ask about the punch that Zhou Nian came up with!"

Wow!
The fierce fist intent of the Divine Drum on Su Chang'an dissipated, and turned into an extremely gentle fist intent, like flowing water and raindrops. It did not have the oppressive feeling that made people tremble, but rather the feeling of a light rain falling. At a glance, the fist intent was still powerful, but it was as gentle and soft as a drizzle.

However, even the Grandmasters at the Limitless Realm could see that the girl in red had suppressed her strength to the level of an ordinary Limitless Realm expert, and was clearly about to unleash her punch with that strength.

Zhou Nian, whose strength seemed to be at its peak, threw a punch.

Zhu Su squinted. "It's a boxing manual, but it's not. Did Zhou Nian modify the boxing technique?"

Su Chang'an said, "Yes, it was changed, and the name was changed as well. Senior Zhou jokingly called it the 'Ant Shaking a Tree Fist'."

Zhu Su laughed: "Are you saying that we ants are always thinking of shaking Huang Chao? That's Zhou Nian's style."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Su took a step forward!
The drums are beating loudly!

Zhu Su said loudly, “Girl, since we martial artists have already taken to the punch, no matter what happens in the world, we can just keep fighting. We must fight for the world, for our peers, and even more so for ourselves! Zhou Nian is dead. You should tell all the martial artists in the world on his behalf that he broke Huang Chao’s divine drum. Then you will continue the breath he has held back for decades!”

"Today, I, this old man, will witness Zhou's fist, which he will die without regret. I will also see what method this ant will use to shake the tree! And I want to see if he's lying!"

As he spoke, golden lightning threads crisscrossed and flickered on the surface of the Zhu Su ant.

The moment the punch was thrown at Su Chang'an, countless cracks exploded on the arena.

Of all the martial arts in the world, the divine drum is the most revered.

Many people want to break the Divine Man's Fist Technique.

You, Zhou Nian, a martial artist whose spirit is broken and who only feels he has been defeated, could come up with that punch?!
From the clouds, the giant fist crashed down, heading straight for Su Chang'an!
The essence of the fist can be seen by no one, except for Su Chang'an, who faces it directly.

Can.
Su Chang'an transformed his fists into palms, and the intent of his fists, like fine rain, swirled around his arms. At first glance, it seemed as if his red clothes had transformed into the intent of his fists. However, as he raised his hands, his palms trailed fine rain and mist.

Between the fierce arcs of thunder, a gentle rain and flowing water passed by.

When Zhu Su realized it, he saw that the fist, guided by the intent of the fist, had appeared in his chest!
Especially since it hadn't been touched. But this punch...
It has already been unleashed!

boom!
A gust of wind roared backward from where Zhu Su was!

"puff!"

Zhu Su's fist intent was shattered by the blast, and he even spat out a mouthful of blood.

That day, Zhou Nian used this punch to approach Su Chang'an, but Zhou Nian was only a ninth-rank cultivator and could not break through Su Chang'an's protective aura, so it was useless.

But that punch.
But it hit Su Chang'an squarely.

As Su Chang'an just said, if Zhou Nian is at the end of his realm, then his punch with the Divine Drum has already been deflected!
Like Zhu Su, who was punched in the present moment.

Zhu Su swayed, but snorted and steadied himself, looking at Su Chang'an: "Inch Force?"

Su Chang'an nodded: "Yes."

Zhu Su looked down at his chest, where his clothes were torn and crushed by the force of the fist, leaving a fist imprint on his chest.

That punch, though the hand had barely been raised, was imbued with the intent of raindrops—it appeared incredibly fast, yet also incredibly slow, yet it condensed instantly, striking without ever touching the user.

Dripping water can wear away stone, and an ant can shake a tree!
Such a simple principle.

but.
It did indeed break through the punch of the Divine Drum.

Even if the woman in front of him was the one who threw that punch.

But that extremely gentle yet instantly fierce punch was enough to break through the Divine Drum's punch.

They are all experts, not laymen.

Simply by facing this punch head-on, one can understand its secret.

There's no need for a second punch, nor is a second punch necessary.

Ants trying to shake a tree
Whether the tree can be shaken is irrelevant; what matters is whether the ant does it or not.

"Pfft!" Another mouthful of blood spurted from Zhu Su's mouth.

Su Chang'an was about to step forward.

Zhu Su raised his hand to stop him, clutching his chest with the other: "No wonder Huang Chao remembered Zhou Nian's name. He's clearly a mediocre madman with only a broad vision, yet Huang Chao said that Zhou Nian of the Quan Yi Men is a very interesting person."

After saying that, he gave a self-deprecating laugh: "I underestimated Zhou Nian."

Zhu Su pounded his chest: "I'll remember this punch! Since you're a martial artist who practices external martial arts, and you've spoken on behalf of Zhou Nian to the world today, I urge you not to refuse to challenge me when you come to practice the Divine Drum!"

Su Chang'an clasped his hands in return, saying, "This junior will accept the fist of the world on behalf of Senior Zhou."

Zhu Su immediately laughed: "Support him my ass! He's dead, so be it. A ninth-rank expert surpassing the peak realm, Zhou the Madman died with dignity. Among all martial artists below the peak realm, who can surpass the peak realm? Zhou Nian is number one. And you're saying this on his behalf to the world? You're just taking the punch yourself. He can't afford it. After I recover from my injuries, I'll come looking for you, little girl! But... are you the current head of the Fist Intent Sect?"

Su Chang'an shook his head: "I am not the successor of the Fist Intent Sect. I was just entrusted by Senior Zhou to tell the world the truth that even an ant can shake a tree, and to fulfill his wish."

After saying that, Su Chang'an smiled and said, "Although it is not appropriate for me to explain this principle, I just want to tell everyone that there was a Quanyi Sect whose entire family was loyal and died in the defense of the Great Xia. There was also Zhou Nian, who was a madman and was ridiculed for decades, but he comprehended a fist that could shake the two invincible fists of the past."

Su Chang'an smiled and said, "This sounds a bit pretentious, but it's what I have to say. What do you all think? Feel free to continue on the stage."

"Hahahaha! Cough cough cough~~" Zhu Su laughed loudly, but suddenly coughed a few times, and then said in a deep voice: "Little girl, I look forward to your real battle with Yan Yunxiao, the old master, Yu Taohua, Wu Qinhu and the others! Moreover, among the martial arts practitioners, you are the current empress, standing in the sky."

Having said that, he clasped his hands in a respectful bow to Su Chang'an: "In the battle just now, I was defeated! Zhou Nian's understanding of this punch is powerful!"

Su Chang'an returned the greeting with clasped hands.

Then he looked down at the martial arts practitioners training in the horizontal stance.

Many older practitioners of external martial arts, such as Mi Gangfeng and Wu Huaisu, all clasped their fists in greeting.

They can see it clearly.

That punch was absolutely incredible!
The old Celestial Master, the old Sword Saint, and others saw it even more clearly.

That punch.
Especially this technique
It was Zhou Nian who touched the threshold of his own transformation.

To reach the threshold of the ninth rank—this is what Daoist Huode meant by something extraordinary!

Su Chang'an watched as these senior figures bowed.

While returning the greeting with clasped hands, looking at these grandmasters of the pinnacle of external martial arts, and at so many people, I didn't feel so pretentious as to say anything like, "Senior Zhou, I've helped you achieve your goal."

Because of our farewell on the grasslands that day, Senior Zhou said, 'Your Majesty, you can take this boxing manual. Use it to tell the world, and then this fist technique will be yours. There's no need for sentimentality; they only need to know that I succeeded. It's not out of vanity; I just want to tell my senior brothers and sisters that this seemingly useless person has shaken Huang Chao's martial arts! So... well, enough said. We martial artists don't have so many pretentious things to say! That's all I have to do with this matter, Your Majesty!'

"Have you finished the fight?"

But just then, Yang Huayan came up to her with the Moon Talisman in her arms.

Su Chang'an looked at Yang Huayan with a puzzled expression.

But before Su Chang'an could speak, Yang Huayan grabbed Su Chang'an's fist and said, "Don't hit me, I can't beat you. I just thought we wouldn't have to fight anymore."

After saying that, he looked at Zhu Su with a look of disgust: "Get down here right now, don't get in my way."

Zhu Su hesitated to speak, mainly because Yang Huayan was of a higher generation and it was not appropriate to say anything.

Two disciples from the Yellow Springs Sect had already arrived and quickly came forward to help their master leave.

Yang Huayan looked at the fifth pair: "Fifth pair, there are only two left! Liu Wawa and I made it into the top twelve, right? We don't need to fight anymore, right?"

Su Chang'an looked at Yang Huayan, who was beaming with excitement: "Huh?"
