The First Venerable of All Paths

"Young Master, you mustn't!"

The two elders quickly tried to dissuade them.

"Fang Xuan was able to kill Wen Kui and severely injure Ming Che; he is far beyond the capabilities of ordinary martial artists. If you rashly make a move, you may be in danger!"

"Danger?"

Wen Yan sneered, her face full of disdain: "You all take him too seriously. Rumors are just rumors. He was just lucky to beat Ming Che. Today, I'll show him what it means to be outmatched!"

"But......"

"No buts."

His gentle tone was displeased: "This is an order!"

Seeing Wen Yan heading towards Fang Xuan's location, the two elders had no choice but to follow closely behind.

At the same time, they felt that with two people accompanying them, even if Fang Xuan had three heads and six arms, they could easily take him down, so they did not intend to inform the family head.

Fang Xuan deliberately slowed down and soon noticed someone approaching quickly.

His eyes sharpened; he knew that a master from the Wen family had arrived.

"They arrived quite quickly."

Fang Xuan smirked, changed direction, and ran wildly in another direction from Qingniu Ridge.

The rain suddenly stopped.

In the mountains and forests, Wen Yan moved as fast as a falling leaf, silent yet swift.

From afar, he saw a figure disappear into the dense forest.

"Fang Xuan? You can't escape!"

Wen Yan grinned menacingly and sped up even more.

Fang Xuan stopped after only half a cup of tea's time.

Because there was no road ahead of him.

Just as Fang Xuan was in a state of panic and confusion, Wen Yan blocked his way.

"Hey kid, why aren't you running anymore?"

Just then, two elders from the Wen family caught up and, from the left and right, joined forces with Wen Yan to surround Fang Xuan.

"Fang Xuan, surrender!"

An elder said coldly, unleashing the full pressure of a first-level Qi Condensation Realm cultivator, "You have no way out. Don't bring trouble upon yourself."

Fang Xuan sneered, said nothing, and stared intently at the elder on his left.

He could tell that the elder's aura was slightly weak, indicating that he had just broken through to the Condensation Realm.

He hadn't even stabilized his cultivation level.

"So, I have no other choice?"

Fang Xuan sighed helplessly.

"Good to know."

With his hands behind his back, Wen Yan arrogantly declared, "Either surrender or die!"

"In that case, then..."

Fang Xuan paused, his Bloodbath Spear flashing with light as he charged straight at Wen Yan.

"court death!"

Wen Yan coldly shouted, "Make your move!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Yan's body was surrounded by faintly glowing array patterns. He dodged the spear while retreating.

at the same time.

The two elders unleashed their Yuan Power, slashing at Fang Xuan with their swords, while also protecting Wen Yan behind them.

Fang Xuan's eyes sharpened, and he instantly activated his Dragon Fish Body Technique, his figure moving like a ghost to avoid one of them.

At the same time, he swept out with the Bloodbath Spear in his hand, the spear light carrying a violent battle intent, aiming straight for the chest of the elder on the left.

The elder's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly brandished his longsword to parry.

However, Fang Xuan's spear technique was too domineering, and coupled with his carelessness, he reacted a beat too late.

"Bang!"

The spear tip slammed into the longsword, and the violent Yuan energy instantly broke through his defenses.

The next moment, scorching undying phoenix fire swept from the tip of the spear, engulfing the opponent.

The elder let out a piercing scream, his long sword flew from his hand, and he was sent flying by the force of the spear.

The man crashed heavily against the cliff face, spitting out blood, his ribs breaking inch by inch, and his breath instantly fading away.

He was already severely injured and had no fighting ability left.

"What?"

Wen Yan and the other elder were shocked. They never expected that Fang Xuan could severely injure a Nascent Soul Realm elder with a single blow.

This level of combat power far exceeded their expectations.

"You little bastard, it seems I underestimated you!"

Wen Yan's face was contorted with rage, and a sinister glint flashed in his eyes.

Immediately, the array patterns around him shone brightly, and he darted to Fang Xuan like a gentle breeze, unleashing a powerful palm strike.

"Um?"

Fang Xuan's expression changed slightly.

Although Wen Yan was only at the peak of the Qi Gathering Realm, his strength was not weak, and his movement technique was extremely strange.

However, Fang Xuan was not afraid at all.

Without dodging or avoiding, he switched from gun to fist and unleashed a powerful punch.

A surge of killing intent erupted from his Yuan energy.

"King's Fist Shakes the World!"

Unlike Wen Yan's gentle palm strikes, Fang Xuan's fist strikes were domineering and fierce.

"Bang!"

With fists and palms clashing, Fang Xuan remained motionless, but Wen Yan was forced to retreat several steps.

Before Wen Yan could regain his footing, a figure like a ferocious beast charged forward again, unleashing a deadly punch at him once more.

"Slaying with overwhelming force, shattering mountains!"

This punch was far more domineering and terrifying than the previous ones.

Wen Yan looked horrified and subconsciously raised his hands, trying to block Fang Xuan's attack.

"snort!"

Wen Yan retreated swiftly, a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

"This punch will send you on your way!"

Fang Xuan's third punch, Dao Yun Quan Jue, followed immediately.

"You little bastard, don't you dare harm my young master!"

At this moment, the other elder of the Wen family finally reacted and slashed at Fang Xuan with his sword.

If Fang Xuan wanted to kill Wen Yan, this strike would surely take Fang Xuan's life as well.

Fang Xuan's eyes flashed with killing intent, and he immediately turned around and threw a punch at the person behind him.

"when!"

As the fist's energy clashed with the blade's edge, Fang Xuan's feet scraped the ground as he staggered backward.

The long knife in the Wen family elder's hand had a nick in the blade, and it almost slipped out of his grasp.

"hiss!"

The elder gasped.

This kid has such domineering power!

He naturally didn't know.

Fang Xuan possesses the Chaos Saint Body, making his physical strength far surpass that of ordinary martial arts soldiers.

Otherwise, without reversing the flow of essence and blood to improve cultivation and using sword cultivation techniques, how could one possibly fight beyond their realm?

"Kid, you are indeed strong, but I am at the Qi Condensation Realm!"

The elder roared, "Even if I can't kill you, I can still exhaust your vital energy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the elder stomped his foot on the ground and transformed into a blur as he rushed straight towards Fang Xuan.

The long sword in his hand was wielded with such force that it created a sharp, piercing blade that enveloped Fang Xuan.

Upon seeing this, Fang Xuan's eyes flashed with a cold light.

He planted the Bloodbath Spear in the ground and formed a sword incantation with both hands.

"All swords return to nothingness, slay!"

The sword case trembled, and several sword energies roared out from it, slashing towards the Wen family elder like streaks of light.

"Snap!"

The blade's edge was shattered, simultaneously tearing through the Wen family elder's Yuan Power shield.

"Pfft pfft pfft!"

The sword energy flashed, and a scream rang out.

The elder of the Wen family had his hands severed instantly, and several holes were exposed in his body.

"You... wow!"

He was about to speak when blood replaced his words, and he collapsed to the ground, lifeless.

In the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, Fang Xuan severely injured one person, defeated Wen Yan, and killed another.

Fang Xuan drew his spear and slowly walked towards Wen Yan.

"Next, it's your turn!"

Wen Yan trembled as she sensed the chilling killing intent emanating from Fang Xuan.

"Fang Xuan, you wouldn't dare kill me, would you?"

Wen Yan retreated repeatedly, saying, "I am a member of the Wen family, I..."

"You talk too much nonsense!"

Fang Xuan swept his spear, sending Wen Yan flying.

"Pfft!"

Wen Yan landed heavily on the ground, spitting out blood, and his face turned deathly pale.

With his disheveled hair, he no longer resembled the young master of the Wen family at all.

"You've already brought your men here to hunt you down, do you still think I'd let you go?"

Fang Xuan channeled his inner energy into the spear, causing the spear tip to flash with a cold light.

"Young Master Wen, may you rest in peace!"

With a thrust of the spear, it suddenly pierced towards Wen Yan's throat.

"Boom!"

Just as the spear was about to pierce Wen Yan, a terrifying aura suddenly erupted from Wen Yan's body.

Even the falling rain was strangely suspended in mid-air at this moment, none of it able to fall.

"Hehe, Fang Xuan!"

Wen Yan gripped the spear, his face contorted with rage, and let out a hoarse, cold laugh.

"Do you really think I don't have a backup plan?"

Wen Yan suddenly exerted force, and a powerful and heavy force swept out from Wen Yan's body, knocking the spear away.

"Snap!"

The spear was planted diagonally into the mountainside, penetrating several inches deep.

Fang Xuan cracked his knuckles and said calmly, "This is your trump card? It seems nothing special."

"This is nothing."

Wen Yan smiled coldly, opened his arms, and then suddenly clenched them.

"To subdue the dragon and suppress the mountain, all forces must unite!"

The next moment, terrifying forces swept in from all directions and surged into Wen Yan's body.

"Boom!"

The atmosphere of gentle words gradually intensified.

Finally, he actually broke through the barrier of the Qi Gathering Realm and reached the Yuan Condensation Realm.

Moreover, he is even more terrifying than an ordinary martial artist at the first level of the Qi Condensation Realm.

"Oh? Using the power of the formation to enhance cultivation?"

Fang Xuan raised an eyebrow and said, "Not a bad idea, but unfortunately, although this formation is extraordinary, your method of using it is too crude."

"Just empty talk!"

Wen Yan sneered, "I heard you used the power of an array to kill that idiot Ming Yang. Well then, today I'll use the power of an array to kill you and avenge my brother!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Wen Yan formed a hand seal.

"The Mountain-Suppressing Seal, break!"

The next moment, Green Ox Ridge trembled slightly, and boundless Yuan Power gathered, condensing into a huge magic seal, which pressed down on Fang Xuan.

This seal is formed from the power of an array, containing extremely terrifying power.

Even some martial artists at the Qi Condensation Realm would not be able to withstand this attack.

The terrifying nature of array masters was on full display at this moment.

"Using the power of formations to gather the strength of mountains and rivers is indeed a good method."

Fang Xuan said indifferently, "But I said, you used it far too crudely!"

"Stop your empty talk, or you'll die!"

The seals fell heavily, as if they were about to shatter the entire Green Ox Ridge.

"Then let me show you what the true way of formations is."

Fang Xuan saw the array diagram appear in his eyes and lightly stomped his foot on the ground.

The next moment, countless array patterns spread out in all directions from Fang Xuan as the center.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Xuan put two fingers together and gently tapped upwards.

"The array locks the mountains and rivers, sealing off all things!"

A bizarre scene unfolded.

The array patterns and seals in mid-air hovered for a moment, then gradually separated and crumbled, transforming back into the power of heaven and earth, and dissipating into nothingness.

"How is that possible?"

Upon seeing this, Wen Yan's pupils suddenly contracted, her face filled with disbelief.

"I don't believe it!"

Seeing the mocking look on Fang Xuan's face, Wen Yan changed the hand seals again.

"Dragon Subduing Transformation, Annihilation!"

The array patterns condensed into ropes, and then into a long array dragon, which crashed headlong into Fang Xuan.

"That's more like it."

Fang Xuan nodded, seemingly quite pleased.

This further spurred Wen Yan, causing him to directly inject all his Yuan Power into the array pattern dragon, multiplying its power.

"Unfortunately, it's still not enough."

"Snapped!"

Fang Xuan snapped his fingers, and the fallen leaves all over the mountain immediately floated up and condensed into chains.

"Splash!"

The chains flew across the sky, instantly binding the array-patterned dragon.

"break!"

Fang Xuan's lips moved, and the array pattern dragon exploded instantly.

"Wow!"

Wen Yan, suffering a backlash, spat out another mouthful of blood.

His aura plummeted from its peak to its lowest point.

The look in his eyes as he looked at Fang Xuan had changed from shock to terror.
