The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, becoming a disciple of Yue Buqun.

"Decades ago, the saying 'The sword comes from Mount Hua' was already a testament to the exquisite nature of my Mount Hua swordsmanship. But you must remember, no matter how exquisite the swordsmanship is, it is for people to use. The moves are static, but the person is dynamic. I told you before that the highest level of swordsmanship is to have no moves and be better than having moves. But that doesn't mean you should forget it completely. It means you should break away from the original system, not be bound by the moves, and form your own system. Only by going further on the path of your predecessors can you forge your own path and become a grandmaster."

"My talent is ordinary, and I will never reach this level in my lifetime. But you are different. Your comprehension is very high. I believe that your achievements will be far more than this. You will definitely surpass me, you will definitely surpass everyone, and truly forge your own path. You are already on the way, but before that, you must quietly hone your skills and not be arrogant or complacent. A true master always has a humble and eager-to-learn heart. Only when you truly understand will you understand what it means to..."

"Do whatever you want, and everything will go as you wish."

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At this moment, Yue Buqun's sword was moving at an extreme speed, with dense sword shadows and flying sword energy blasting large holes in the ground, creating a truly astonishing scene.

Zuo Lengchan was also going all out at this moment.

Both were leaders of major sects, with extensive practical experience. They were top masters in the martial arts world, and their control over timing and techniques had reached a superb level.

But at this moment, Zuo Lengchan was gradually falling into a disadvantageous position.

"The Left Master's Great Songyang Divine Palm seems a bit rusty."

At this moment, Chongxu said something.

Zuo Lengchan's signature move was the Great Songyang Divine Palm. Chongxu had seen Zuo Lengchan use it before, but he never expected that after more than ten years, Zuo Lengchan's Great Songyang Divine Palm would seem somewhat rusty, which Chongxu found hard to believe.

Could it be that Zuo Lengchan, as the sect leader, has been focusing on managing the Songshan Sect for so many years, neglecting his own martial arts skills?

Zuo Lengchan's face was gloomy, and his expression was extremely ugly.

He had always taken Yue Buqun seriously before today, especially after Yue Buqun and Ren Woxing fought today, he took Yue Buqun even more seriously. So he didn't hold back at the beginning and directly exchanged blows with Yue Buqun.

Unexpectedly, Yue Buqun's internal strength was so profound that he seemed to have no energy depletion when fighting Ren Woxing, and showed no signs of running out of stamina even after fighting him for so long.

Yue Buqun was even more formidable than he had imagined.

Chapter 393: Self-Destruction

By the time Zuo Lengchan realized this, it was too late.

At this moment, Yue Buqun's every move was aimed at killing him, giving him no chance to stop. As soon as he stopped, Yue Buqun would never stop and would definitely take the opportunity to kill him.

But if this continues, he will eventually run out of internal strength and be defeated.

Thinking of this, Zuo Lengchan's face darkened even more. He no longer held back, dodging Yue Buqun's sword with a quick movement. At the same time, he raised his palm and lunged forward, his speed exploding to the extreme. Clearly, he was going to make a desperate gamble.

Yue Buqun remained calm upon seeing this and countered with a palm strike of his own.

boom!

The two forces of internal energy erupted with a tremendous sound.

Ok?

Yue Buqun's expression changed slightly. He realized that Zuo Lengchan's palm strike was neither a technique from the Songshan School nor Zuo Lengchan's signature move, the Great Songyang Divine Palm, but an unknown palm technique.

An extremely yin and cold internal force surged from the opponent's palm.

Yue Buqun's arm was the first to come into contact with this extremely yin and cold internal force, and water droplets actually appeared on the surface of his skin.

At the same time, this chilling internal force invaded Yue Buqun's body, and Yue Buqun could feel that the blood flow in his body had slowed down slightly.

Yue Buqun frowned, snorted coldly, and activated his Innate Skill at full power to neutralize the internal force.

Bang!

The two forces collided, unleashing a powerful impact that separated the two men who had been locked in combat once again.

Zuo Lengchan flew backwards, and after landing, he continued to retreat into the Songshan Sect's camp.

Yue Buqun only took three or four steps back before stopping.

"Senior brother!"

Lu Bai, Fei Bin, Ding Mian, and the others were shocked to see this and rushed forward to help Zuo Lengchan.

Zuo Lengchan raised his hand to stop him, his gaze turning to Yue Buqun in the distance.

The outcome is decided.

"Master!"

Linghu Chong shouted with joy and rushed to Yue Buqun's side.

The other Huashan disciples also rushed forward.

"The Left Sect Leader has actually been defeated."

The onlookers were stunned, especially the martial arts practitioners.

They never expected that Zuo Lengchan would be defeated by Yue Buqun.

Zuo Lengchan had always been known as the number one person in the Five Sacred Mountains, but today that title has been broken.

"Ugh."

Chongxu shook his head, his expression showing a hint of regret for the battle.

Fang Zheng remained expressionless.

"Master, you won! You won!"

Linghu Chong was shouting like an excited monkey.

"What kind of behavior is this, making such a racket!"

Yue Buqun couldn't bear to see him make a fool of himself, so he directly reprimanded him.

Linghu Chong was scolded and froze. Just as he was about to admit his mistake, he noticed Yue Buqun winking at him.

Linghu Chong immediately understood and turned to look at the Songshan Sect.

"Zuo Lengchan, you made a promise when you competed with my master that if you lost, you would have to cripple your martial arts. Now that the outcome is decided, it's time for you to keep your word."

"Who said we lost?"

The members of the Songshan Sect were enraged by Linghu Chong's arrogant behavior, and Lu Bai shouted angrily.

Linghu Chong sneered.

"Everyone saw the result just now. You're not going to admit it? I think your Songshan Sect should keep a low profile from now on."

"you!"

The members of the Songshan Sect were furious and were about to start cursing when Zuo Lengchan stopped them with a gesture.

"Zuo is inferior in skill and accepts defeat."

Zuo Lengchan's expression remained calm at this moment.

Hearing his words, everyone was taken aback.

Is Zuo Lengchan really going to cripple his martial arts?

"Senior brother, please don't!"

Lu Bai hurriedly said, fearing that Zuo Lengchan would really keep his promise.

"At worst, we'll fight them to the death! We'll fight them to the death!"

Fei Bin added.

The other disciples of the Songshan Sect were all trying to persuade them.

However, Zuo Lengchan did not stop at all.

bang ~ bang ~ bang ~

Zuo Lengchan reached out and pressed several acupoints on his chest, then forcefully slapped his chest with his palm.

boom!

Zuo Lengchan's body trembled, and a surge of internal energy spread out from his body.

"puff!"

Zuo Lengchan tilted his head back and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Senior brother!!!"

Lu Bai, Fei Bin, and the others were horrified, their eyes wide with fury, and they cried out in anguish.

Zuo Lengchan's face was pale, a trace of blood remained at the corner of his mouth, and he swayed as if he would collapse to the ground at any moment. Lu Bai, Ding Mian and the others quickly stepped forward to support him.

The crowd gasped in surprise at Zuo Lengchan's actions.

The acupoints that Zuo Lengchan just pressed were all acupoints that would dissipate internal energy.

Has Zuo Lengchan truly crippled himself in martial arts?

At this moment, Zuo Lengchan looked somewhat haggard, and his gaze fell upon Yue Buqun.

"Sect Leader Yue, I have fulfilled my promise. My martial arts are now crippled, and I am now a useless person. Are you satisfied?"

Zuo Lengchan's tone became very weak.

Yue Buqun looked at him without saying a word, his brows furrowing involuntarily.

At this moment, Zuo Lengchan's aura was ordinary, and no internal energy flowed out of his body, as if he had truly become an ordinary person.

Did Zuo Lengchan really cripple his martial arts so easily?

Yue Buqun was somewhat uncertain.

In his opinion, even if Zuo Lengchan lost, he probably wouldn't be so happy and there would inevitably be some wrangling. But Zuo Lengchan didn't even argue. His actions were decisive, as if he had no attachment to the martial arts he had painstakingly cultivated for decades.

However, the acupoints that Zuo Lengchan had just pressed were indeed steps to dissipate internal energy, and Zuo Lengchan was indeed completely without any internal strength at this moment.

"You think your martial arts are ruined just like that?"

Yue Buqun still had doubts and didn't speak, but Linghu Chong spoke directly.

“We haven’t checked you, how do we know if you’re really disabled? What if you’re just lying to us? We have to check you ourselves.”

"Don't deceive people too much!"

Fei Bin said angrily.

The other disciples of the Songshan Sect glared angrily at Linghu Chong.
