He was invincible from the beginning of the Heaven-Covering Era.

The world was a vast expanse of white, with mountains and rivers all covered in snow. The wind howled, snowflakes danced in the air, and the air was bitterly cold.

Zhou Qing stood atop the snow-capped mountain, shrouded in white mist, his purple robes fluttering in the wind.

He paused briefly, quickly determined a direction, then imprinted himself in the void and instantly streaked across the sky.

After flying for an unknown amount of time, Zhou Qing's ears twitched slightly as he heard shouts of battle coming from afar.

This is the prototype of the "Follow-the-Wind Ear," an ability even rarer than the "Heavenly Eye." It can not only hear voices from afar but also occasionally capture divine thoughts.

After he was baptized with the Nine Apertures Spirit-Opening Divine Liquid, all of his body's potentials were unlocked, and his abilities in all aspects became much stronger.

"It seems to be flying in my direction."

Based on the changes in the volume of the sounds, Zhou Qing judged that the shouts of battle were getting closer and closer to him.

Sure enough, less than a quarter of an hour later, Zhou Qing saw a figure appear on the horizon, streaking across the sky with a white light.

He was a man in white, seemingly blending into the snowy landscape, otherworldly and ethereal.

However, the man's clothes were stained with blood, and his body was trembling slightly, indicating that he had suffered considerable injuries.

"Mo Chen, you can't escape now. Today is your death day!"

A loud roar came, like a thunderclap, shaking the void and causing the surrounding mountains to shake violently.

It was an old man with a cold expression and a gaunt appearance. He held a crimson spear with a sharp tip, stained with drops of blood, and a dazzling divine light flowing across it, making it difficult to look directly at.

"You escaped by chance last time, but you won't be so lucky this time. I will personally cut off your head to wash away my shame."

The old man shouted, his voice like a divine drum from heaven, carrying for hundreds of miles and stirring up waves of air in the sky.

For the old man, as a powerful being at the Sendai realm, it was a great humiliation that he had been allowed to escape from the grasp of someone who had undergone the Eighth Transformation of Dragons due to his carelessness.

"What kind of Frost Swordsman dares to offend my Myriad Beginnings Holy Land? Even if you escape to the Northern Region, you will surely die. There will be no place for you in heaven or on earth!"

The old man roared, his voice chilling, his body radiating an extreme, sinister killing intent, his eyes fixed on the person in front of him.

However, although Mo Chen's cultivation level was lower than his and he was injured, his flying speed was not slow at all, making it impossible for the old man to get close.

At the same time, as the two people flew in one after the other, Zhou Qing could vaguely see that there was a large group of people following behind them, and a lot of shouts of killing could be heard.

This group of people seemed to include elders from the Wan Chu Holy Land, as well as some passersby who had come to witness this event.

Hearing these words, Zhou Qing's heart was stirred.

Unexpectedly, he had just emerged from the void

Upon returning from the abyss, I encountered a familiar person.

Although they had only met a few times during their previous exploration of the snow-capped mountains and had not spoken, he was still a familiar face.

At this moment, Mo Chen was not in good condition. His abdomen had been pierced by the blood spear, leaving a large hole. Moreover, he needed to get rid of his pursuers as soon as possible, so he had no time to heal his wounds.

After witnessing this, Zhou Qing decided to leave quietly.

This was a feud between other people, and he didn't want to meddle. Besides, he didn't know the cause and effect of it, nor did he have any reason to take action.

As the old man pursued, he gathered divine power in his blood-red spear, emitting streaks of crimson divine light that were so vivid and dazzling they seemed to drip with blood.

Like countless celestial swords, these crimson divine lights rang out, piercing through the air, and boundless killing intent enveloped Mo Chen.

This also prevented Mo Chen from flying at full speed. He kept swinging his snow-white divine sword, unleashing beams of divine light that collided with the crimson divine light.

Although Mo Chen was struggling to cope, he still managed to block all the attacks. Some of the crimson divine light was shattered by him, while others were pushed in other directions.

This also shows that Mo Chen himself should at least have a level of combat power that can be suppressed.

This is a rare occurrence. Although Zhou Qing's Eight Forbidden Techniques might make people feel that the combat power of the First Forbidden Technique is not particularly remarkable.

However, in the cultivation world, those who can kill enemies across a realm are always called "defying immortals".

Because the gap between realms is really huge, even a single forbidden realm is extremely rare.

The shattered divine light dissipated into the world, but the crimson divine light, whose direction had been altered, streaked across the sky, piercing through the surrounding snow-capped mountains, displaying astonishing power.

Just as Zhou Qing was about to leave, he discovered that a crimson divine light was being slashed towards him.

Zhou Qing had no choice but to strike out with his palm. There was no dazzling divine light, but when this palm struck the crimson divine light, it shattered it directly.

Originally, the group of pursuers didn't care about passersby, but Zhou Qing's palm strike attracted the attention of some of them.

Among a group of onlookers flying around, a man suddenly exclaimed, "Elder, I saw that person! He's the one who killed the Grand Elder and so many of our disciples!"

Zhou Qing's ears twitched slightly. Although the distance was far and his super hearing wasn't fully developed yet, he could still hear it very clearly.

So he turned his head and glanced at it, and immediately saw several familiar faces.

Among the crowd of onlookers, he spotted a group dressed in matching clothes, seemingly belonging to the same faction.

Zhou Qing was also very familiar with this kind of clothing, because it was the official uniform of the Five Elements Hall, and he had a deep impression of it.

In the center of that group, a very robust middle-aged man stood in the void, his exposed skin a bronze color, strong and powerful, like a coiled dragon.

"Are you sure it's him?" the middle-aged man asked in a deep voice, his eyes like sharp blades, as if he wanted to cut Zhou Qing open.

“That’s right, we absolutely can’t be mistaken, it’s him!” Several disciples around him quickly said, their eyes filled with hatred.

There was also a sense of fear.

"It's been a long time since I've been looking for him. It's been almost a year. I thought he had escaped, but I didn't expect him to still dare to stay in Hanzhou. He's courting death," the middle-aged man said coldly.

At this moment, Zhou Qing felt that he was completely locked onto by the middle-aged man. A cold gaze was fixed on his figure, as if it would chase after him no matter where he flew.

However, Zhou Qing did not intend to leave, because he could tell that this person's cultivation level was probably only about a year after entering the Sendai Secret Realm, and his cultivation level was still at the first small step of Sendai.

At this moment, the Supreme Elder of the Wan Chu Holy Land was chasing Ling Shuang Swordsman. The two of them, one fleeing and the other chasing, flew past Zhou Qing.

The group from the Five Elements Hall followed closely behind the two men, and were not far from Zhou Qing.

"Boy, you're quite capable to have killed one of the Five Elements Hall's Grand Elders at such a young age. I can give you a chance to live. Just kneel before me and agree to become a servant of our Five Elements Hall, and I won't harm you."

The middle-aged man flew to a spot not far in front of Zhou Qing, stood with his hands behind his back, and said coldly.

Zhou Qing's expression also darkened. He felt that this person was extremely arrogant, actually thinking that he would surrender without resistance.

Zhou Qing snorted coldly, showing no fear on his face, and shouted, "What do you think you are? I'll give you a piece of advice: be my dog, and I'll spare your life; otherwise, I'll annihilate you, body and soul!"

The disciples of the Five Elements Hall standing nearby stared wide-eyed, finding it utterly unbelievable. How dare he speak to their Supreme Elder like that? This wasn't just a seventh-stage Dragon Transformation expert; he was a master from the Immortal Platform Secret Realm!

One of the Five Elements Hall disciples was very bold. Perhaps because he was standing next to the Supreme Elder, he started to tremble and shouted repeatedly after hearing Zhou Qing's words.

"Who do you think you are? It is indeed incredible that you could kill our Grand Elder who has reached the Seventh Transformation of Dragon, but you actually dare to speak to the Supreme Elder like this. You are finished. I don't know if you have any chance of surviving!"

The middle-aged man was very arrogant; he never imagined that Zhou Qing would advance through several realms in the past year.

Because every step forward at this level is difficult, he was confident of victory and didn't take Zhou Qing seriously at all.

At that moment, he heard what Zhou Qing said to him, and his face instantly turned cold, looking at Zhou Qing as if he were looking at a dead person.

"Fine, fine, since you're so arrogant, then go die! You can regret your choice in the underworld!"

The middle-aged man roared, and his body emitted a terrifying aura, as if a god or demon had descended, and he stretched out an ancient, large hand.

He didn't even use his magic power; he just slapped Zhou Qing directly with his palm, intending to crush him with his bare body.

Zhou Qing remained calm and showed no fear. He traced the path with his palm and went straight to meet the attack.

"click"

The middle-aged man let out a scream. His entire right palm was deformed beyond recognition, revealing white bone fragments and dripping with blood.

"What? The Supreme Elder of the Five Elements Hall actually lost in a physical contest? How is that possible? Could it be that his physical body is even stronger than that of an expert from the Immortal Platform Secret Realm?"

At this moment, some of the onlookers flew over and stood outside the battlefield between Zhou Qing and the Five Elements Palace members, watching this good show.

Seeing this astonishing scene, everyone was stunned. This was a master from the Sendai Secret Realm! Zhou Qing didn't look that old, yet he had completely overwhelmed him physically.

"You think you've got me cornered without even using your magic? Now you'll learn your lesson!" Zhou Qing said coldly.

Chapter 64 The Battle Between the Mountain Embracing Seal and the Supreme Yang Seal

The middle-aged man staggered backward, his face pale. His right hand was almost smashed by Zhou Qing, and blood splattered everywhere.

At that moment, he was filled with anger and felt a sense of shame.

One moment he was boasting that he would kill Zhou Qing, and the next moment his hand was smashed in half, and in front of everyone no less! It was a disgrace, a tremendous disgrace!

"Ah, I will definitely kill you!" the middle-aged man roared, his eyes bloodshot, as if he had gone mad.

Although his right hand was injured, a crimson mist of blood quickly rose from the wound, and a dazzling divine light flowed across its surface. The bleeding stopped immediately.

Zhou Qing sneered, "What a coincidence, I don't want to let you go either!"

Zhou Qing didn't have the habit of waiting for others to heal before making a move, so he took advantage of the middle-aged man's right hand recovery time and attacked directly.

He stretched out a hand, which quickly enlarged, forming a giant handprint that covered the heavens and earth, pressing down with immense force.

The surrounding void was almost crushed, as if a mountain had fallen from the sky and pressed down, causing the middle-aged man's expression to change immediately.

Under this giant hand, space was sealed off, all around was silent, and a divine might of the Great Dao surged down instantly.

This was an unparalleled power, as if a small world had formed in the palm of his hand, intending to trap the middle-aged man within it.

Even Elder Wan Chu, who was not far away, couldn't help but turn his head. This power was too amazing. Even he would have to do his best to block this palm.

The middle-aged man, however, did not surrender easily. He let out a loud shout, his entire body glowing, and a terrifying aura emanated from him, as if he were about to pierce the sky.

"Baoshan Seal!"

The middle-aged man's black hair danced wildly as he slowly moved his fingers, finally bringing them to his front and embracing them with both hands.

Within his embrace, a truly imposing mountain appeared, radiating an extremely powerful aura.

Although it's not as big as a real mountain, it's incredibly realistic. Every blade of grass and every tree on the mountain is clearly visible, and you can even see creatures like rabbits and wolves.

A heavy, misty fog swirled from the mountains, pressing down so hard that it caused the space beneath the middle-aged man to collapse.

"It's him! The genius from the Five Elements Hall 150 years ago! It turns out he's the one who broke through to the Sendai Secret Realm!"

At this moment, some passersby exclaimed in surprise, seemingly recognizing the man's identity.

"Huh? How did you recognize me?" another passerby asked in confusion.

"Can't you even recognize this? Look at his Embracing Mountain Seal, the evolution is too detailed. One hundred and fifty years ago, there was a genius in their generation who was most proficient in this move, and the evolution method was exactly the same, only stronger than before!"

The passerby looked down on the person next to him, as if not recognizing the man was a shameful thing.
