Martial Arts Crossover: My Wife is the Top Scholar

Chapter 191 Li Zhaoting: Senior, are you ready to die?

powerful!
It's so powerful it defies description!

This is not human, it's a monster, it's a god!

Yu He, one of the "Five Evils" at the very top of the martial arts world, the strongest martial arts master of the Qing Dynasty, who had dominated the martial arts world for a century and was extremely arrogant, was killed by Zhang Sanfeng with a single punch.

The most terrifying thing is that after killing Yu He, Zhang Sanfeng's energy did not change at all. He was neither injured or weakened by exchanging punches, nor did he become excited by going all out. He was still a Nascent Soul cultivator.

If Zhang Sanfeng's vital energy weakens, it means that gods can bleed, and killing a god is not a fantasy.

If Zhang Sanfeng's aura intensifies, it means he cannot suppress his overwhelming cultivation level. If Meng Chixing and Bashiba were to go all out, they could send him shattering the void.

However, Zhang Sanfeng's internal energy remained unchanged.

The Void Shattering Tactic has truly been broken.

This is normal.

Martial arts masters are not fools.

Most masters who reach the pinnacle have things they cherish: their lineage, their loved ones, and their families. They don't leave immediately after achieving enlightenment and breaking through the void.

No one can truly be without any attachments.

Even Pang Ban, who is the most indifferent and ruthless and the most focused on pursuing the Dao, had Jin Bingyun's embroidered shoes hidden in his chest pocket just before the void shattered after his duel with Lang Fanyun. Can you say he was truly ruthless?

Since these top masters don't want to leave, they will definitely work hard to figure out how to deal with them. In the martial arts world, having a single trick to get by is more of a fantasy than a fairy tale.

Even if a move was used once or twice decades or even a hundred years ago, as long as it is recorded and poses a great threat, it will be deciphered.

Martial arts innovation is endless. For the sharpest spear, there is the strongest shield; for the most unstoppable offensive moves, there is the strongest protective aura.

Where there is offense, there is defense.

With light-footed skills come constraints.

Where there is a formation, there is a way to break it.

Where there are hidden weapons, there are ways to catch and dodge them.

People who know they have flaws in their martial arts but neither try to make up for them nor make friends, and who still fantasize about being in a high position, often don't live long.

"Tai Chi Yin Yang!"

Lin Lingsu glared at Zhang Sanfeng through gritted teeth.

Despite her descent into evil paths, Lin Lingsu, a master of Taoism, still possessed a solid foundation of knowledge and, based on the records of the ancients, guessed Zhang Sanfeng's method.

Hundreds of years ago, Sun En used the ultimate Yang to clash with Yan Fei's ultimate Yin, using the extreme burst of Yin and Yang true energy to open the gate of heaven and earth. The so-called void-shattering tactic was very similar to this, and could not escape the yin and yang barrier.

What is the convergence of Yin and Yang?
Tai Chi!

Is there any master in the world more skilled in Tai Chi Yin Yang than Zhang Sanfeng? The Yin and Yang energies had just condensed, and Zhang Sanfeng could easily merge them into Tai Chi with a single palm strike.

The Tai Chi diagram, with its cyclical interplay of Yin and Yang, firmly locks the gates of heaven and earth. The attempt to force Zhang Sanfeng to shatter the void through the ultimate Yin and ultimate Yang is actually empowering Zhang Sanfeng and pushing the Tai Chi diagram itself into a desperate situation.

According to the previous plan, Lin Lingsu entered the state of extreme yang with the Divine Firmament Thunder Technique, Meng Chixing entered the state of extreme yin, and the Eight Masters launched a continuous and powerful attack on the soul, while Yu He stimulated Zhang Sanfeng's blood and qi, launching a comprehensive attack on his essence, qi and spirit.

Now, let's think about how to survive!
The spiritual world is a thousand years in a second.

Perhaps he understood, or perhaps he didn't; these things are not important. What is important is that after Zhang Sanfeng killed Yu He with one punch, he unleashed another earth-shattering punch.

The target of this punch was Lin Lingsu.

Lin Lingsu could not possibly withstand that punch.

If Lin Lingsu is killed, this battle will be a complete rout, and all the calculations will come to naught.

Eighth Master Ba's eyes shone with golden light as he activated the Heaven-Shattering Earth-Shattering Spiritual Technique to condense an illusion. Meng Chixing crossed his hands, using his spirit to control matter and drawing upon the primordial energy of heaven and earth. Lin Lingsu disregarded everything and activated the Life-Destroying Technique of Residual Yuan.

"boom!"

Lin Lingsu was sent flying by a single punch.

Seriously injured, but not dead!
Lin Lingsu was overjoyed. He hadn't been killed, which meant that Zhang Sanfeng's fist power seemed to be... Damn!

Lin Lingsu looked down and saw three young people standing with swords, locking onto his landing spot. In the instant before he landed, they immediately attacked him with the Three Talents Formation.

Li Zhaoting, Feng Suzhen, and Cheng Huaixiu.

Zhang Sanfeng found watching the fight boring, and wanting to help his old friend's disciple, he held back his strength when he threw a punch, severely injuring Lin Lingsu and leaving her to be dealt with by Li Zhaoting.

"Fellow Daoists, let's find another place to fight!"

Zhang Sanfeng's robes fluttered, and he seemed as ethereal as a celestial being.

Meng Chixing shouted, "Very well! I will experience the ultimate skills of Master Zhang and fight with all my might. Even if I die, I will have no regrets!"

Ba Shiba smiled without saying a word and nodded in agreement.

Those who have reached the level of martial arts masters like Meng Chixing and Ba Shiba are all people of unwavering resolve. It's just that Zhang Sanfeng's strength is too terrifying, which is why they wanted to use a trick to defeat him. Even if it's a trick, it still means fighting to the death with all your might, and there can be no retreat whatsoever.

Tactics have failed, and escape is hopeless. It's better to have a final, epic battle with Zhang Sanfeng and slaughter everyone in a bloodbath!
……

Li Zhaoting stared intently at Lin Lingsu.

Li Zhaoting had long admired this man.

Lin Lingsu was originally a Taoist master with unparalleled talent in Taoist magic and martial arts. She founded her own sect at a young age and was a rising supernova.

Because her life had been too smooth, Lin Lingsu wanted to find some excitement for herself, and her behavior became increasingly crazy. First, she demolished temples and built Taoist temples, trying to wipe out the eight branches of Buddhism. Then she compiled the Taoist Canon, hoping to gather all the major branches of Taoism under her own tutelage. At the same time, she wanted to take the imperial route and plot to seize the position of Grand Preceptor of the Song Dynasty.

Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism all launched a manhunt for him.

The sect founded by Lin Lingsu was wiped out, its scriptures were burned, its disciples were arrested, and its lineage was completely severed in the Central Plains. In a fit of anger, he fled to the Jin Kingdom.

The Jin Dynasty was the predecessor of the Qing Dynasty. At that time, the Aisin Gioro clan took advantage of the Wanyan clan's foreign wars to launch a surprise attack, wiped out the Wanyan clan's experts, and usurped the throne.

The Wanyan clan's experts formed an alliance and stirred up trouble within the Qing Dynasty, hoping to regain control of the country.

The Jin Kingdom urgently needed a master to stabilize the situation, so it treated Lin Lingsu with great courtesy. After Lin Lingsu recovered from her injuries with the help of the Jin Kingdom's resources, she immediately betrayed them and sold the Wanyan royal family to the Mongol Yuan Dynasty, thus becoming the Mongol Yuan's national advisor.

The Mongol Yuan dynasty was divided into several factions, some of which believed in Buddhism and others in Taoism. Most of the Taoists believed in the Quanzhen School of Taoism. Lin Lingsu was skilled at pretending to be a god or ghost and, relying on the Shenxiao Thunder Technique, gained the recognition of several tribes and was honored as the national teacher.

Lin Lingsu is truly despised by everyone and even dogs.

Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism—none of them didn't hate him!

Killing Lin Lingsu at any time, in any place, and in any way will grant a huge amount of reputation. Zhang Sanfeng didn't need reputation, so he gave this benefit to his old friend, Li Zhaoting, so that Li Zhaoting's good name would spread throughout the world.

Consider it compensation for my old friend!
After all, the old man had mastered martial arts back then and thought himself the best in the world. He was brutally beaten by Zhang Junbao in front of thousands of people with the Arhat Fist, losing all face.

Zhang Junbao did not do it on purpose.

He was in a state of enlightenment at the time, and relied entirely on his martial arts instincts to attack. By the time he woke up, his old friend had already been defeated by him with the Arhat Fist.

Cheng Huaixiu angrily rebuked, "Lin Lingsu, you are an incorrigible heretic, I will kill you today!"

"You three juniors?"

Lin Lingsu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He guessed Zhang Sanfeng's thoughts and thought to himself that Zhang Sanfeng was too arrogant. If it were Shi Yan and Mu Daoren from Wudang Yuxu Palace, Tieqi Yinping Daoist from Zhenwu Temple, or the Sanjiu Zhenren, the guardian of the back mountain, Lin Lingsu might be somewhat wary. But with just three young men in their twenties, Lin Lingsu's eyes flashed with killing intent!
"Little girl from Cihang Jingzhai, your Sword Heart Clarity is nothing special. Even if you master the Scattering Technique and even go into seclusion, I will not take you seriously!"
Righteous spirit, Confucian swordsmanship? I never imagined that Han Chinese scholars would still practice martial arts! Does the Changge Sect still exist? It must have been wiped out long ago!
You're surrounded by multiple sword intents, and you can make these sword intents blend together seamlessly without any conflict. You must be a disciple of the Famous Sword Manor, right? How many sword techniques have you learned?
If I capture you alive, will Zhang Sanfeng let me leave Wudang? If I'm destined to die here, how many martial arts masters can I kill before I die?

Lin Lingsu was rambling on and on, and before she could finish speaking, she struck Feng Suzhen with a palm. Lin Lingsu had dedicated her life to practicing thunder magic and was most skilled in attack and killing.

Thunder magic is not about summoning wind and rain or divine arts, but rather pure yang energy, from which thunder arises.

For example, Sun En's "Yellow Heaven Great Law" can be cultivated to the highest level, Yellow Heaven Limitless and Supreme Yang Limitless, which can summon the Yang Thunder of the Nine Heavens and unleash an extremely powerful attack.

Of course, as I said before, the martial arts tradition has never been interrupted, and it has continued to develop.

Hundreds of years ago, Sun En unleashed his most powerful move during his decisive battle with Yan Fei. Today, when Pang Ban's Waves Over Clouds and Moon Fill the River, this level of attack is nothing more than a casual basic attack from Pang Ban. Pang Ban casually unleashed it hundreds of times, and Waves Over Clouds withstood hundreds of attacks without sustaining any damage. To think that this method could open the gates of heaven and earth is pure wishful thinking.

Martial arts are becoming increasingly popular.

The gate between heaven and earth grew ever thicker and heavier.

The difficulty of breaking through the void is increasing.

What the sages left behind was not a complete path, but a philosophy of cultivation. Later generations modified and improved upon these philosophies, creating even more brilliant martial arts techniques.

Those who cling to old ways and remain stagnant will be killed by their enemies, even if they possess unparalleled talent.

Lin Lingsu was clearly not that kind of person. He was more radical than anyone else. He studied Sun En's martial arts based on the incomplete Huangtian Dafa and supplemented it with various Taoist scriptures. After countless crazy ideas, he created the Shenxiao Thunder Law.

Three swords were thrust at Lin Lingsu.

Holy King Sword Technique!

Hundred-step flying sword!

The sword's heart is clear!

Lin Lingsu blocked the sword light and laughed: "The three of you are all top geniuses with great lives. Why be misled by the underworld, the righteous path, the evil, the immortals and demons of this world?"
What is an immortal? What is a Buddha? What is a demon? What is a monster? What is righteousness? What is evil?
Is Wudang the righteous path?

Is the Demonic Cult an evil sect?

Did Confucius represent humanity?

Does Cihang Jingzhai represent the Way of Heaven?
Is Kendo a matter of right and wrong, or good and evil?

Everyone says I am a heretic or evil person, but if I can achieve great things, I will be the source of all laws. I admit my failure back then; I was indeed too eager for quick success.

However, my ideas are not wrong!
"I will become the source of all paths sooner or later!"

Lin Lingsu was seriously injured and could not attack as fiercely as before. She could only use words to coax Li Zhaoting and the others to gain a chance to catch their breath. The lightning in her hand remained condensed and she was ready to attack at any time.
