Martial Arts Crossover: My Wife is the Top Scholar

Chapter 190 One Punch Kills, the Power of a Terrestrial Immortal

The assassinations targeting various sects were not far from Wudang Mountain, and most of them took place by water.

Wudang is located at Danjiangkou, the confluence of the Han River and the Dan River, with convenient water transportation. Many martial arts sects prefer to leave Wudang by waterway.

The experts who attacked these sects were led by water ghosts, archers, and body-refining martial artists, and they either used ranged attacks, sank ships, or savagely rammed them.

Everyone knows that with thousands of martial artists from outside gathering at Wudang, someone is bound to take the opportunity to cause trouble, and it's also possible that some outside experts might break into smaller groups and infiltrate Wudang.

Unexpectedly, things happened so quickly and erupted so violently. In a short period of time, five famous sects were attacked, and their experts suffered heavy losses.

Two eminent Shaolin monks, Xuan Nan and Xuan Ming, were ambushed and killed by Mongol Yuan masters Meng Da and Meng Er. Shaolin disciples were also targeted from a distance by the Eight Heroes of Divine Arrows, resulting in the loss of dozens of disciples.

The Kunlun Sect barely held on by relying on its sword formation. Kunlun was too far from the Central Plains, and intelligence transmission was very limited.

People only know that Kunlun is good at lightness skills and has unique skills such as the Nine Forms of the Great Flying Dragon and the Eight Forms of the Great Flying Dragon. Few outsiders know that Kunlun is best at sword formations.

Perhaps only Kumārajīva, who was relatively close to Kunlun and obsessed with martial arts, knew a little about the extent of the truth.

In Kumārajīva's eyes, the Kunlun Chaos Sword Formation was as powerful as the Shaolin Arhat Sword Formation and the Dali Six Meridians Divine Sword Formation, which shows that this sword formation was profound and mysterious.

The Emei disciples were escorted by two Grandmasters, Ximen Chuixue and Hua Manlou. Hua Manlou was impeccable, while Ximen Chuixue's sword strikes were always deadly. The disciples carefully trained by the Western Region Vajra Sect were easily cut down by Ximen Chuixue.

Ximen Chuixue's sword was too swift and too sharp, and it had an absolute advantage over the Vajra Sect's protective techniques.

……

After being reminded by Li Zhaoting, the Five Elders of Kongtong Sect felt it was better to be safe than sorry. They used some tricks and swallowed their pride to ask Lu Xiaofeng and Tang Zhuquan to travel with them.

Caught in a surprise attack, Lu Xiaofeng swiftly struck down several alien experts, only to encounter a formidable foe shortly afterward.

The commander who orchestrated the surprise attack was well aware of the principle of "knowing yourself and your enemy, you will never be defeated." He sent out the big men of the Vajra Sect to attack the Emei Sect and Kunlun Sect, which had relatively weak offensive capabilities, and sent out top experts to attack the Kongtong Sect and Shaolin Sect, which had relatively strong offensive capabilities.

If it weren't for Lu Xiaofeng's chivalrous intervention, he could have killed several people in a single encounter, and within half an incense stick's time, he could have wiped out the Five Elders of Kongtong and the entire Kongtong sect.

Lu Xiaofeng has encountered a formidable foe.

His opponent was a eunuch in red robes.

A eunuch as fast as lightning and as elusive as a ghost.

Lu Xiaofeng shouted sternly, "Shadow Guards?"

"Kid, you've got some guts!"

The old eunuch's voice was high-pitched and ghostly.

In his later years, Emperor Kangxi's nine sons vied for the throne.

To ensure his own safety, Emperor Kangxi ordered his personal eunuch Li Dequan to train a special eunuch squad to protect the palace, which was named the "Shadow Guards".

To commemorate the only ray of light in their hearts and the carefree joy of their childhood, all the eunuchs of the Shadow Guard were given the surname Wei and their names were derived from flowers, plants, and trees.

Lu Xiaofeng's opponent is Wei Tang, the deputy commander of the Shadow Guard, a super old monster who is nearly ninety years old!
"Whizzing!"

The two figures vanished simultaneously.

Only fleeting, intermittent afterimages could be seen in the air. Even someone as strong as Tang Zhuquan could only vaguely see the afterimages. He thought to himself that if he were to fight the old eunuch, he would only be able to exchange his life for his own, as his speed was far inferior.

……

Mount Hua was attacked by a master.

Yue Buqun was defeated by the enemy's powerful blows.

Murong Fu, who was traveling with him, faced ten incredibly strong men wielding spears and halberds, as well as the sniping of Mongol archers, and was in grave danger.

Bao Butong and Deng Baichuan were quickly forced to leave the game due to injuries.

There was also a swordsman with a sorrowful face and tattered clothes, who was faster, more ruthless, and more knowledgeable in swordsmanship than Murong Fu, and whose swordsmanship crushed the disciples of the Huashan Sect.

At the critical moment, Linghu Chong stepped forward.

If there is one martial art in the world that is most suitable for using in-game powers, especially against sword masters, and particularly for use in desperate situations, it would definitely be the Dugu Nine Swords.

Coincidentally, before this trip, Feng Qingyang had completely taught Linghu Chong the Dugu Nine Swords.

Linghu Chong had almost no skill in fist and foot techniques or long weapons. He couldn't use the Palm Breaking Style, Spear Breaking Style, or Rope Breaking Style, but the Sword Breaking Style was his specialty.

Faced with the old swordsman's relentless pursuit, Linghu Chong swung his sword to block him and quickly entered a state of enlightenment.

With one sword in hand, I can shatter a thousand swords!

……

Wudang, Zixiao Palace.

Li Zhaoting smelled the blood in the air.

Li Zhaoting could sense the killing intent, and Zhang Sanfeng could too. Looking at the sky, he shouted, "Today is my 100th birthday celebration. I don't want to fight, but you insist on asking for it. Don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Zhang Sanfeng's brows furrowed, and half the sky visibly twisted into a vortex, transforming into a yin-yang symbol, with boundless and endless pressure enveloping the entire Wudang Mountain.

Every blade of grass, every tree, every flower, every leaf is under our control.

This is not the unity of heaven and man; it is turning the entire main peak into one's own domain. This is not a martial arts domain, but a special effect of the Nine Heavens True Scripture's Return to the Boundless.

Seize the opportune moment and the advantageous location!
Whether it's Wudang Mountain, the vast desert, the boundless ocean, an isolated island overseas, the northern polar regions, or thousands of miles of glaciers, they can all be transformed into one's own domain.

Wherever the battle takes place, Zhang Sanfeng will control the timing and location. The martial arts realm that ordinary martial artists would never dare to dream of is merely a side effect of building up momentum, just like the clothes on one's body.

Everyone needs to wear clothes when they go out.

Food, clothing, shelter, and transportation are the most basic necessities of life.

Similarly, for the Nine Heavens True Scripture's Return to the Ultimate Truth, the martial arts realm is the basic effect, like ripples created when rowing a boat, or like throwing a pebble into a calm lake, stirring up waves.

A palm strike with overwhelming force descended from mid-air.

Under this palm strike, even the Grandmasters on the Heavenly Gang Ranking could not move an inch. As for the mystery of the palm technique and the essence of the Nine Heavens True Scripture, they could not understand it at all.

Can flies understand fly swatters?
Just then, a dazzling Buddhist light flashed in the distance, and an immeasurable, boundless, and indescribable spiritual pressure came crashing down on us head-on.

The Mongol Yuan Dynasty's National Preceptor, Bashiba!

One of the Buddhas in the "One Immortal and Two Buddhas" legend.

Ba Shiba was a master of spiritual cultivation, and his spiritual technique of transforming heaven and earth was famous throughout the world. When fighting enemies, he only needed to look at them once to pull them into an illusion.

They may use Buddhist teachings to guide and convert, or forceful methods to kill, or leave psychological trauma, or destroy one's spirit and will.

The spiritual world is a thousand years in a second.

In a split second, the battle for victory or defeat begins.

"Eighth Master Ba! You're not qualified to scheme against me. Come at me, all of you old fogies! Let me see what you're capable of!" "Master Zhang, Meng Chixing requests your guidance!"

A sinister demonic thought surged into the sky. It was not the evil aura of traditional impressions, but a spiritual thought that was almost identical to that of Bashiba. This was the method that Meng Chixing had cultivated throughout his life, using spiritual cultivation to control matter.

The three opposing forces of pressure intertwined and clashed.

As the heavens and man interacted, thick dark clouds gathered in the sky, accompanied by flashes of lightning and thunder.

A Taoist priest riding a white crane, dressed in feathered robes and a tall crown, appeared in the lightning: "I am Lin Lingsu, a junior disciple. Please, Master Zhang, instruct me in the ways of the Tao! Behold my Divine Firmament Thunder Technique!"

"Zhang Sanfeng, do you still remember me?"

An old man carrying a sword walked slowly towards them.

This man was older than Zhang Sanfeng, with white hair and beard, and his face was covered with wrinkles. His imposing manner was no less than that of Ba Shiba and Meng Chixing, and his arrogance surpassed that of Lin Lingsu by three levels. His aura was like that of a madman or a demon.

This person was named Yu He, the first imperial patron of the Qing Dynasty.

Those who stayed in Wudang Mountain were amazed by what they saw.

It is said that the most prominent figures in the martial arts world today are: one immortal, two Buddhas, three demon lords, four supreme beings, five evil spirits, and eight great leaders.

I didn't expect so many people to come.

One Immortal: Zhang Sanfeng;
One Buddha: Eighth Master;
One Demon: Meng Chixing;
The two evil ones: Lin Lingsu and Yu He;
The primordial energy of heaven and earth, spiritual pressure, martial arts domain, and martial arts intent are all mixed together in a chaotic mess. Anyone who dares to unite with heaven and earth at this time and stir up the primordial energy of heaven and earth will inevitably be blasted into dust by the chaotic and disordered energy.

There is no harmony between humanity and nature, only the ego and self!
Li Zhaoting thought of a problem.

How to deal with an invincible master?
1. A strategy of hostage tactics, taking precautions against harming others.

II. Invincible under heaven, yet enemies come from the heavens;

Ba Shiba, Meng Chixing, and others were just a hair's breadth away from shattering the void, while Zhang Sanfeng had already crossed that boundary, but for the sake of the Daoist lineage, he did not ride the wind away.

If one or several people joined forces to unleash Zhang Sanfeng's full power in terms of essence, energy, and spirit, exceeding the limits of the world's capacity and opening the gates of heaven and earth, what choice would Zhang Sanfeng make?
This tactic is not just wishful thinking.

During the Southern Dynasties, "Celestial Master" Sun En fought fiercely against "Sword Saint" Yan Fei in a three-way battle using the Yellow Heaven Great Law. In the midst of their life-or-death struggle, the completely opposite Yin and Yang energies pushed open the gates of heaven and earth, and Sun En took the opportunity to shatter the void.

After hundreds of years of inheritance and development, people have discovered that this is not a shortcut to breaking through the void, because those who want to take shortcuts cannot break through the void. Sun En had no intention of taking shortcuts at all; it was a desperate attack.

Opening the gates of heaven and earth through a decisive battle versus taking a shortcut—these are two different philosophies.

The latter represents a lack of self-confidence. Only a martial artist who lacks self-confidence will try to take shortcuts, and will eventually be plagued by inner demons, failing ten times out of ten attempts.

One hundred and fifty years ago, a demon ravaged the world, and no one could defeat him. The world's masters joined forces to besiege him, and the decisive battle took place on the summit of Kunlun Mountain. The powerful energy opened the gate between heaven and earth, and everyone took the opportunity to rush forward and pull the demon inside.

No one has seen the demon again.

No one even recorded his name.

Perhaps they died, or perhaps they shattered the void.

Martial artists in the martial world only remember one thing: when facing an invincible number one in the world, they can use the method of attacking from the sky to forcibly send the opponent to shatter the void.

The Mongol and Manchu martial arts masters planned this for over a decade, and after numerous exchanges of interests, they chose the time of Zhang Sanfeng's 100th birthday banquet, when the momentum was at its peak, the energy was strongest, and the power was most explosive, to send him to shatter the void.

Ba Shiba, Meng Chixing, and Yu He are all nearing the end of their lifespans, so perhaps they can take advantage of this opportunity to hitch a ride.

"Is this the tactic you came up with? I'm so disappointed! Have you ever considered that for every sharpest spear, there is a strongest shield?"

Zhang Sanfeng took a step forward, clenched his right fist, muttered to himself, and showed a look of nostalgia on his face.

"I used this tactic once more than seventy years ago. My enemy at that time was the Carefree King. He was too strong, and I was no match for him at all."

The arrogant and domineering Prince Xiaoyao attempted to collect all the martial arts manuals in the world, integrate all martial arts, and leave only his lineage to inherit all martial arts.

In order to deal with the Carefree King, I, along with my close friends Yi Tianxing and Yi Jifeng, Master Chengkong of Shaolin, and more than a dozen hermits from Kunlun, joined forces to besiege the Carefree King.

That was the most devastating defeat of my life.

The Kunlun hermits were completely wiped out.

Master Chengkong's life force has run out and he is dying.

Yi Tianxing was captured alive by the Carefree King.

Yi Jifeng was slapped on the back of the head, and I was punched in the forehead. I lost my memory and went mad. Zhang Sanfeng's Taoist name is actually Zhang Sanfeng.

The madman's madness!

Do you understand what I mean?

"I want to tell you that your carefully planned tactics against me were already cracked by the Carefree King seventy years ago. You think you can control me?"

Zhang Sanfeng roared to the sky, soaring into the air amidst tangible sound waves, and slammed his fist into Yu He.

Move, block and beat!
One of the most domineering killing moves in Tai Chi.

Before this punch, all the so-called "Reign of the World," "Great Bright Fist," and "Heaven and Earth Overlord Fist" paled in comparison. Of the eight great masters of the martial world, apart from Lang Fanyun and Guo Bujing, none could ultimately defeat these old monsters.

Yu He unleashed both fists, fighting for his life.

The over 100-year-old monster, known as "unrivaled in eight hundred, the martial saint reborn from the Xuanyuan realm," is a master of evil cultivation who rose through the ranks of slaughter. His only flaw is his arrogance, but when facing Zhang Sanfeng, no one dares to be arrogant in the slightest, thus compensating for his only weakness.

This punch was the culmination of Yu He's lifelong cultivation of essence, energy, and spirit. He believed that even if he couldn't injure Zhang Sanfeng, as long as he could make Zhang Sanfeng take half a step back, he would have some room to maneuver.

"boom!"

Yu He never expected that his fist would strike Zhang Sanfeng's abdomen before he could strike, but Yu He added force and suddenly discovered that Zhang Sanfeng's body was as solid as a Buddhist golden body and as supple as a fairy's skin and bones.

Tai Chi Profound Skill: Unity of Body and Mind!

Zhang Sanfeng secluded himself for several months to comprehend the ultimate martial arts techniques, intending to pass them on to the Seven Heroes of Wudang after his birthday banquet. Unexpectedly, they were used on Yu He, truly demonstrating the unpredictability of life.

In the blink of an eye, the force that Yu He had blasted into Zhang Sanfeng's body was shifted by the Tai Chi Xuan Gong and merged with the heavy right fist, striking Yu He's chest heavily.

Progressive block and punch!
The two fist energies, like volcanic lava, invaded Yu He's Ren and Du meridians respectively, destroying the eight extraordinary meridians. Yu He's meridians and bones crumbled inch by inch. No matter how he resisted, he could only watch helplessly as the endless true energy destroyed every bone, every muscle, and every cell in his body.

Before Yu He could utter his last words, nor did he receive any help from his teammates, a loud bang was heard, and the over 100-year-old demon was blasted into dust by a heavy punch.

For those directly involved, the punch was indescribably terrifying. To the spectators, all they saw was Zhang Sanfeng leaping up to throw a punch, and Yu He countering with a punch. The two exchanged blows, and Yu He was eventually killed by Zhang Sanfeng.

How were they bombed to death?
What's the mystery behind this punch?
Can you copy this punch?
Totally impossible!
Even experts like Li Zhaoting and Feng Suzhen couldn't understand it.

This is not a power of the human world.

Ba Shiba and Meng Chixing's hearts sank.

They never imagined that Zhang Sanfeng could kill Yu He with a single punch without any change in his aura.
