High-level martial arts: Invincibility starts with basic archery.

"That kid's here again!"

The moment Chen Fan entered the secret realm, he was noticed by several dark figures in the sect ruins.

Seeing Chen Fan head straight for the back mountain without stopping, the shadowy figures all showed resentment on their faces.

"This kid really thinks this place is his own backyard, doing whatever he wants?"

"Damn it! If I weren't trapped here, I would definitely extract this brat's soul and make him wish he were dead!"

"Why don't we join in?"

"No!"

The dark figure who had taught Chen Fan the techniques immediately said, "I told you, he is my prey, and you are not allowed to interfere."

Upon hearing this, the other figures in the shadows fell silent.

Yes, they had an agreement.

However, it was incredibly frustrating to just watch the other person hopping around in front of them without being able to do anything about it.

"You really have a way to make him obediently come to you?"

Just then, a dark figure resembling an old man asked with a look of suspicion in his eyes.

It sensed that Chen Fan had gone straight for the precious herbs on the back mountain as soon as he entered, showing no intention of coming over.

"What's the rush?"

The latter glanced at it and said, "Don't you know the saying 'haste makes waste'? He will come looking for me."

After the shadowy figure finished speaking, a cold smile appeared on his face.

It didn't believe that the other party would abandon a supreme-level martial art to cultivate, but the difficulty of supreme-level martial arts was undeniable; even a genius couldn't master it in less than a day...

The next moment, it suddenly opened its eyes wide and saw a scene that it could not believe.

The back of the mountain.

Behind Chen Fan appeared a Vajra statue over thirty or forty meters tall, radiating golden light. Its eyes blazed with tangible fury. At that moment, its left hand was pressing down on a dragon, and its fist, the size of a small mountain, was raining blows upon the dragon.

With each punch, even the mountain peak beneath his feet trembled slightly.

"???"

The shadowy figure gaped in disbelief.

"The wrathful Vajra form?"

"He actually possesses the power of the Great Vajra God?"

"To be able to condense such a high level of Dharma form, his cultivation level of Vajra Power is at least at the Great Completion stage, or even the Perfection stage."

The several dark figures nearby were also quite frightened.

Even within the Crimson Dragon Gate, few people possess the Great Vajra Divine Power to the extent that the memories stored in their minds can achieve.

"strangeness."

A woman-like figure in black asked疑惑地, "Why didn't I see him use this move the previous times he came?"

"Yes, I remember it clearly. Back then, he used the Giant Spirit Hand, and he still needed others or those flying centipedes to restrain him. But today, he alone was able to suppress a mid-level demonic beast?"

"Could it be that he learned the Great Vajra Divine Power before but didn't use it, and now he's finally using it? But that doesn't make sense. It would be much easier to use, so why didn't he use it?"

"This is impossible! This is impossible!"

The dark figure who was imparting the techniques to Chen Fan was trembling all over.

He could guess why Chen Fan hadn't used this martial art at first, but was only using it now—because the latter didn't have it, and it was he who had taught the latter this technique.

But how is that possible?

Before a day had even passed, the other party had already cultivated this supreme-level martial art to the perfect state?

It would never have believed it if it hadn't seen it with its own eyes.

However, the facts are undeniable.

"What's wrong, Black Mountain? You don't look too well?"

Just then, a dark figure looked over. It had already noticed that the other person's expression was strange.

In an instant, the gazes of the other dark figures also turned towards them.

"Black Mountain, the Great Vajra Divine Power, only the Third Elder Council of the Crimson Dragon Gate possessed it. You absorbed his memories, so could it be that the Great Vajra Divine Power that kid used was something you taught him?"

Seeing this, Heishan knew he could no longer hide it, so he could only nod.

"You'd be so kind as to give him that cultivation technique? I understand now. Your so-called backup plan must be to leave some traps in the technique, so that you can lure him in when he encounters problems during cultivation, right?"

Seeing that Heishan had tacitly agreed, the other party smiled and said, "It seems that your methods are not so clever after all. Wait a minute."

The shadowy figure who had been speaking suddenly seemed to remember something and asked, "When did you give him this technique?"

Black Mountain glanced at it, as if to say, "You finally figured it out."

"That's right, it was given to him yesterday when he came alone."

"..."

A collective gasp of astonishment filled the air.

I just gave it to him yesterday?

Has he reached the perfect state of cultivation today?

Are you kidding me?

This is no ordinary martial art; it is a supreme-level martial art. Once mastered to perfection, it can even put up a fight against a martial artist in the Divine Refinement Realm.

"What about the traps you set in your cultivation technique?"

"I... I'm not quite sure either."

Heishan shook his head. "Don't underestimate the few things I changed. Those are the key points of this technique. If he cultivates it the way I gave him, he will never be able to master or perfect this technique. But..."

It glanced into the distance.

The 30-meter-long dragon had been beaten to the point of near death.

"Perhaps it hasn't taken effect yet?" a shadowy figure asked.

"That's possible, but he just went through a battle, so it should take effect soon."

"That being said, it would be too astonishing if this kid could cultivate a supreme-level martial art from scratch to perfection in less than a day."

"More than amazing, he's a monster! I never imagined that after thousands of years, such a peerless genius would appear again. Given time, he might very well become a Martial God."

"A God of War? Hmph, destroying a future God of War would be quite interesting."

Several dark figures stared coldly at Chen Fan.

The more powerful the killers, the more satisfied they feel.

But in Heishan's heart, that sense of unease grew stronger.

It sensed that things were starting to spiral out of control.

……

Baijiang City.

It is a super-large city where the Ice Emperor resides.

Similar to Yandi City, the landmark building here is the towering headquarters of the Awakeners Association.

A few kilometers away from the association's headquarters, there is a tall building that is more than ten meters shorter, echoing the association's high-rise building.

This is the council of elders.

Although the Elders Council is located in two other megacities, there is no danger there.

However, as a member of a prestigious family, the elders naturally felt more at ease with the Ice Emperor.

At this moment, on the top floor of the building, five elderly men are sitting around a round table with a diameter of 100 meters.

They all looked quite old, some even with completely white hair. However, even the three strongest Awakened Ones in Yan Kingdom did not dare to underestimate them, because each of them represented one of the strongest families in Yan Kingdom. The five of them represented the five major families.

The underlying principles contained within are something that even the Awakened Association dares not act rashly against.

"I suppose I don't need to explain why I've gathered everyone here?"

An elderly man dressed in Tang Dynasty clothing, sitting directly to the north, said.

He represents the Su family. In several elections for elders, the Su family has remained steadfast, not only because the Su family has a history of thousands of years and a very deep foundation, but also because the Ice Emperor comes from the Su family.

That is why, by default, one of the five seats on the Elders' Council belongs to the Su family.

"So what if a few people from Maple died? What's the big deal? Is it really necessary to hold a special meeting?" An old man to the left of the man in the Tang suit said casually, and even reached out to pick his ear.

"The one who died wasn't an ordinary person, but Karl from the Revival Society!" An elderly man in black opposite him stared intently at him, emphasizing his words.

"Indeed, the Larsen family holds a high position within the Revival Society. Especially considering that the one who died this time was Karl, the patriarch of the Larsen family, the impact is enormous." Another white-robed elder agreed.

Only one old man remained silent, as if it were none of his business.

"I told you not to bring these Feng Kingdom people back, but you wouldn't listen. Now several have died, and we have to clean up their messes. You're just asking for trouble." The old man said, while continuing to pick his ear.

"What's wrong with accepting it? How can we demonstrate our great power's magnanimity if we don't accept it?"

"Alright, now is not the time to argue."

The elderly man in the Tang suit at the head of the table glanced at the old man cleaning his ears.

It was his idea to bring the people of Fengguo over in the first place.

Was the latter deliberately trying to make things difficult for him by saying this at this time?

But it doesn't matter. According to the principle of majority rule, even if the other side opposes, they will only get one vote.

"The Revival Society just called me, hoping that our Elders' Council will handle this matter as soon as possible and give them an explanation. What do you think?"

"The Jiangnan Martial Arts Association has gone too far, especially that kid named Chen Fan. He actually killed a member of the Revival Society in broad daylight in the city. It's utterly lawless. In my opinion, given time, he will become another wanted criminal and should be executed immediately. As for the other members of the Jiangnan Martial Arts Association, although they didn't kill anyone, they are still involved in this matter. Why not capture them and hand them over to the Revival Society for punishment?"

The old man in black snorted coldly.

"I agree with Lao Qin's opinion."

The white-robed elder beside the black-robed elder nodded and said, "I've also learned the details of this matter. These people from the Jiangnan Martial Arts Association usually let things slide when they rob their fellow countrymen; as long as they don't go too far, we can usually turn a blind eye."

But this time they chose the people of Feng Kingdom as their target, and even killed them. This is outrageous! It's foreseeable that after this incident, the people of Feng Kingdom will have an even worse impression of us, and if word gets out, it could cause other surviving forces to become suspicious of us. The consequences would be terrible.

The old man who was cleaning his ears burst out laughing when he heard this.

"Zhao Chunyuan, what are you laughing at? What's so funny about this?"

The old man in black couldn't help but slap the table in front of him.

He had really been putting up with the other person for a long time.

"You guys really haven't changed at all."

Zhao Chunyuan shook his head, looking at the two with a look of sympathy.

"What exactly are you trying to say?"

Anger flashed in the eyes of the old man in black.

"I want to say, the story I heard is different from what you told me. It was clearly those Fengguo people who robbed others first, but they were unskilled and got killed. Then those brats from the Song family, along with that Karl guy, went to seek revenge."

As a result, they lost both their wife and their army. Strangely enough, the Song family, never ones to suffer losses easily, why didn't they go to Jiangnan City to settle accounts with their opponents for so long? Instead, they went to the Revival Society seeking help. If I'm not mistaken, the Song family's involvement was partly to encourage the Revival Society to come to them.

"So what? It's a done deal that that kid named Chen Fan killed Karl from the Revival Society. Our Elders' Council will definitely give the Revival Society an explanation," the old man in black said in a deep voice.

"And then there's the Song family. Although we're competitors, they're still a prestigious family. For someone to openly oppose a prestigious family like them—this kind of behavior must not be allowed to continue!"

"Since everyone has different opinions on this matter, let's start voting as usual."

As the old man in white spoke, his gaze fell upon the elderly man in the Tang suit who was at the head of the group.

The latter nodded slightly and then said, "Those who agree that the elders should intervene in this matter, please raise your hands."

After saying that, he raised his right hand.

At the same time, the old man in black and the old man in white also raised their hands.

The elderly man in the Tang suit glanced at the person diagonally opposite him, who had remained silent since the beginning of the meeting.

But he's gotten used to it.

The Yan family is skilled in beast taming and their strength should not be underestimated. They also have a demon beast with the strength of the Divine Refinement Realm in the family, so they can occupy a place in the world.

Fortunately, unless it involves the interests of that family, he is like a transparent person.

But at that moment, that person also slowly raised their hand.

The elderly man in the Tang suit was somewhat surprised.

"Four votes in favor."

He looked at Zhao Chunyuan.

To his surprise.

The latter shrugged and then slowly raised his hand as well.

"Don't you dislike the Revival Society?" the old man in black mocked.

Of course, if Zhao Chunyuan didn't raise his hand, he would still mock him.

"Although I'm unhappy that you're standing up for the Revival Association, and especially since the Revival Association was in the wrong first, you're right about one thing: no matter how much our families fight among ourselves, it's a matter between us."

"But this is about the person, not the matter. The Jiangnan Martial Arts Association dared to target our family, so we must make an example of them. Otherwise, what if other martial arts associations follow suit?"

A smile immediately appeared on the old man's face.

Indeed, the dignity of a noble family cannot be violated!

Especially these martial artists from the associations, it's time to let them know who has always been the one to call the shots on this land.

"Since it passed unanimously, I will later send a judgment to the Jiangnan Martial Arts Association in the name of the Elders Council, ordering them to come and apologize. If they comply, they may be given a lighter sentence; if they do not, the Jiangnan Martial Arts Association will cease to exist from this day forward."
