My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 920 Great Battle (Part 2)

Sanjiang City is a city built next to the hub where three golden waterways converge.

It was almost able to leverage these three golden waterways to radiate influence over most of the southeastern provinces of the Yuan Dynasty.
Also because of this,

This city has attracted countless people, with a permanent population reaching over a million!
Throughout the world,
In terms of both population and scale, there are fewer than ten things that can compare to it!

As for Wangjiang Tower,

It is for this reason that it has become one of the must-visit places recommended by many young heroes of the martial arts world when they travel around the world.

Not only because you can see the magnificent scenery of the confluence of three rivers here, but also because you can eat the most delicious finless porpoise in the world.

It is precisely because of this place,
Being able to see the most prosperous and industrially developed cities in the southeastern part of the Yuan Dynasty greatly broadened one's horizons!

Such a prosperous metropolis

Naturally, there is no shortage of powerful figures and martial arts masters in the martial arts world!
It's not just that they don't lack anything,

On the contrary, there are countless forces of all sizes and martial artists from all walks of life!
This is because although Sanjiang City is prosperous,
However, it is, after all, a city with a strong commercial character, and there is no top-tier local force in the vicinity that can command respect in the martial arts world.

It does not belong exclusively to any one powerful individual or force.

Therefore, various forces in the martial arts world who coveted the interests of Sanjiang City either opened branches and sub-branches to directly intervene in Sanjiang City, or supported their disciples to establish martial arts schools, escort agencies, or even local groups such as gangs and societies.

As a result,
The entire city of Sanjiang naturally became extremely "vibrant," with far more idle martial arts practitioners than in other cities.

of course,

These martial arts figures may be numerous,
However, there were no truly outstanding masters among them.

at least,

There are no Grandmaster-level beings in this city.

Even the Grandmaster level beings are only said to exist in seclusion here, with only one or two in legend.

But whether this rumor is true or not, no one can be sure.

But this is not very important.

The key factor is the intertwining of various forces and the gathering of numerous martial arts practitioners.

In addition, countless eyes are hidden in the numerous dark alleys throughout Sanjiang City.

Events concerning the martial arts world that occur in this city can quickly spread to other places.

It is for this reason that
Lu Changhe, a nine-bag elder in the Beggars' Sect, was a powerful and influential figure. He was domineering, but after finding Shen Changchuan's target, he did not take immediate action. Instead, he used the "courtesy first, then force" approach to give Shen Changchuan a choice.
Since he led a large group of elite Beggars' Sect disciples into the city,
The Beggars' Sect's every move
It can be said that all of this has already been seen by various martial arts figures and informants within the city.

The situation is too domineering and arrogant, which will inevitably damage the reputation of the Beggars' Sect in the martial arts world.

If it were anywhere else,

He probably would have slapped him already!
In fact it is.

When the Beggars' Sect disciples surrounded Wangjiang Tower...
Martial arts practitioners from all walks of life in Sanjiang City have already gathered here.

Someone jumped up the tree.

Someone was standing on the wall.
Some people were standing on the roof.
Standing on high ground, I looked towards the direction of Wangjiang Tower.

"Hey, hey, hey, what's going on here? If I'm not mistaken, that should be Elder Lu Changhe, one of the nine-bag elders of the Beggars' Sect's four innate grandmasters, right? What could possibly make him personally lead a team to this run-down place?"

Some people stared in shock at the direction of Wangjiang Tower, which was surrounded by a group of elite Beggar Clan disciples.

This was a martial arts practitioner who had just arrived and was just watching the commotion without understanding what was happening.

"Could it be that the Beggars' Sect stole the Wangjiang Tower's property? But so what if they took it? Are they going to make a bunch of beggars cook for them? Hahahaha!!"

Someone answered, laughing loudly without any attempt to hide their laughter.

Clearly, they didn't really respect the Beggars' Sect, the number one gang in the world, and there seemed to be some grudge between them.

"What a joke! A grandmaster of the Innate Realm, one of the four Nine-Bag Elders, personally leading a team, just to rob Wangjiang Tower? The Beggars' Sect will probably become the laughing stock of the martial arts world the next day!"

Another voice said,

The man shook his head.

His gaze toward Wangjiang Tower was cautious.

He also exuded a powerful aura that was no less than that of others.

"This is probably because of the recent incident involving the Beggars' Sect branch that has caused quite a stir."

"Not long ago, I heard that Elder Lu Changhe spent a great deal of money to invite Lu Wenzong, the Chasing Yama, to take action. Judging from the current situation, the culprit has probably already been caught!"

"Oh dear, that audacious fiend has actually fallen? I heard that he has already harmed eight or nine Beggars' Sect branches. Not long ago, he even killed Yan Chengyou, the leader of the Beggars' Sect's Suzhou branch. That's quite a slap in the face. I thought he had some skills, but it turns out he's finished?"

"What do you mean 'fallen' or 'fallen'? He's not dead yet!"

"He's not dead yet, but he's almost dead."

"There are only a handful of innate grandmasters in the world. I don't remember anyone who has mastered such strange demonic techniques. So that person must be a newcomer who has just started out. Perhaps he is a newcomer trained by the demonic path in the north who is sent here to train and cause trouble."

"But no matter what his background is, as a newcomer, he has no choice but to die in front of a senior innate master like Tieguaizi Lu Changhe!"

"Moreover, given that he's already gone too far, committed a major taboo of the Beggars' Sect, and angered the entire sect, and doesn't have any Grandmasters or even Supreme Grandmasters as his backers, his fate probably won't be good."

"That's true."

The large crowd of onlookers gathered and began to discuss the matter.

Most people undoubtedly felt sorry for Shen Changchuan, one of the main figures in this incident.

With their eyesight, they could naturally see Shen Changchuan by the third-floor window, surrounded by many elite members of the Beggars' Sect and Lu Changhe, the nine-bag elder of the Beggars' Sect.

A very young figure,

To possess such strength and accomplish such great things at such a young age...

Without a doubt, if he survives and accumulates even stronger internal energy over the years, he will surely grow into a prominent figure in the martial arts world!
But unfortunately,
That young man's journey has come to an end!

Among the onlookers,
Almost everyone feels this way.

They don't think so.

Given the current situation, what possibility does the young and inexperienced Shen Changchuan have of turning the tables?

Just as passersby were watching the play and discussing it,
suddenly,

From the third floor of the distant Wangjiang Tower, Lu Changhe made his move! Immediately afterwards...

Boom! ! !

A deafening roar suddenly erupted, and the ground trembled visibly!
Before the crowd outside could react, a visible white shockwave suddenly erupted from the third-floor window, sweeping across the area for hundreds of feet like an invisible giant blade!
Along the way, the air rippled like giant waves visible to the naked eye!

at the same time,

Pairs of eyes widened in shock, mouths agape as they stared at the scene.

A chilling sensation rose up my spine!

I see,

With that earth-shattering roar, the carved wooden windows on the third floor of Wangjiang Tower shattered instantly, the beams and pillars broke one after another, and the tiles poured down like a torrential rain amidst the violent shaking of the entire building!

In the blink of an eye, as shocking cracks appeared in the center of the building, the upper half of the building slowly tilted before the horrified eyes of the crowd, and finally collapsed with a roar amidst a cloud of dust!

It has been passed down for over a hundred years.

The building, which could almost be called a landmark of Sanjiang City, collapsed at this moment!

Before anyone else could react,

Amidst the billowing dust and ruins of the collapsing building, a figure could be vaguely seen. Another figure in his hand transformed into a series of afterimages, stepping on the bricks, tiles, and beams that were falling like a torrent, and easily flew out of the collapsed Wangjiang Tower!

It eventually landed on a rooftop not far away.

Meanwhile, on the other side,
A more robust and powerful figure could only blast away the various brick and stone fragments falling from above like a cannonball, charging around and forcibly breaking through with his powerful true energy!
The smoke and dust had not yet cleared.

The burly figure shot into the sky like a cannonball, surrounded by a torrent of boiling true energy, tearing through the surrounding dust and smoke, and finally landed on a rooftop not far away on the other side!

Who else could it be but the Nine-Bag Elder of the Beggars' Sect—Iron Crutch Lu Changhe?!

But at this moment, he

disheveled hair,

His clothes were covered in dust.

He looked like he had rolled around in the mud, and he looked extremely disheveled!
"Good good!"

Right now,

Lu Changhe's eyes were bloodshot, and his face showed extreme anger mixed with a forced smile.

I originally thought this would be an easy victory.
The result, however, was a wake-up call for him!
Not only was he humiliated and disgraced, but he also lost face as a once high-ranking and powerful Grandmaster of the Innate Realm.

The elite Beggars' Sect disciples he brought with him also suffered heavy losses in this unprepared moment!

In that brief moment of collision,
Accompanied by the force of the impact, like a torrent or a tsunami,

Those elite Beggars' Sect disciples who were closer were instantly killed by the shockwave.
Those further away escaped immediate destruction, but the intense fight between the two men later caused the entire Wangjiang Tower to collapse in half, resulting in a deluge of falling bricks, tiles, and heavy wooden beams.

The result is that of the nearly one hundred elite Beggars' Sect disciples he brought, perhaps less than half are still alive!
To be "teased" like this by a mere boy
How could Lu Changhe not be furious?
The crimson eyes were burning fiercely, seemingly about to scorch through the void and burn Shen Changchuan to ashes!

What Lu Changhe didn't know was that

If the Beggars' Sect hadn't acted less domineeringly, they might not have suffered such a devastating loss!
Just now,
After surrounding Wangjiang Tower, they immediately kicked out all the diners, waiters, managers, and other unrelated personnel.

As a result, there was no innocent person left in the entire Wangjiang Tower.

This left Shen Changchuan with no more reservations.
It unleashed its strongest power directly.

The collision of the two
This had a wide-ranging impact on the elite Beggars' Sect disciples he had brought with him.

If from the beginning,
If the Beggars' Sect hadn't been so ruthless as to simply clear the area, there would still be other innocent people inside.

Shen Changchuan would most likely be somewhat wary.

Perhaps they would choose to avoid that palm strike.
He took Liu Ruyin and flew away to another battlefield to avoid harming innocent people.

can only say,
They chose this themselves!

However, it is obvious that

Lu Changhe would only think that the kid in front of him was too despicable and cunning, and would not think that it was his own problem.

"You little beast, today I'll show you what a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm truly is!"

Lu Changhe roared and slammed his palms together. The pressure of a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm erupted without reservation. At this moment, the primordial energy of heaven and earth seemed to be stirred by an invisible hand, turning into a huge vortex!

The immense pressure caused bricks and tiles around the Luchang River to shatter and crumble in rapid succession.
The passersby and spectators who stood thousands of feet away and peered out all felt a sense of oppression, as if a huge rock was pressing down on their hearts!
"Prison-Suppressing Dragon Devouring Hand!"

With a roar,

Lu Changhe lowered his body, transforming from extreme stillness to extreme movement. He touched the ground with one foot and shot out like a bolt of lightning, rushing towards Shen Changchuan like a heavy truck speeding at lightning speed!

In an instant,
It was as if a dragon's roar echoed throughout the heavens and earth.
A shocking event has occurred!

People thousands of feet away could feel the subtle vibrations in the air.

"That move?!"

The moment Lu Changhe made his first move, the knowledgeable experts among the many martial arts practitioners watching immediately recognized his starting stance.

"This is Lu Changhe's signature move! It is said to have originated from the Beggar Clan's Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, and after decades of refinement, its power is no less than that of the latter!"

"Many years ago, it was rumored that when Lu Changhe first entered the Innate Realm, he used this palm to kill Qi Huai, a notorious bandit who had been rampant in the Jiangnan waters at the time. Qi Huai was an old-timer who had already been promoted to the Innate Realm for many years!"

"The last time Elder Lu used this move was probably ten years ago, right? Who is that kid on the other side that forced Elder Lu to use such a deadly move?!"

"Regardless of that kid's background, and regardless of the outcome of today's battle, from today onwards, that kid is likely to become famous throughout the world."

Some people had complicated expressions and muttered to themselves.

Comments from passersby
It didn't have any impact.

Amidst the surging air currents, Lu Changhe grasped at the void with his palm, his powerful energy flowing and surging.
His palm transformed into the head of a ferocious dragon, roaring and sweeping across the heavens and earth with unparalleled power capable of destroying everything!

Under that terrifying power

The surrounding space, spanning a hundred feet, seemed to dim in light at that moment.

Only one enormous dragon head, several meters long, roams the world!

We must completely erase Shen Changchuan from this world!
