Fang Xue said,

"Everyone hold on! Although this battle is difficult, if we can safely get through it, I believe everyone will reap great rewards and advance even further."

Wang Hong laughed heartily,

"Such an opportunity is truly once in a lifetime. Fight, exhilarating!"

He was a typical battle fanatic who liked to seek breakthroughs in extreme life and death fights, which was different from Lu Chenzhou, who preferred to let things take their natural course.

There’s no helping it, Lu Chenzhou has the Martial Arts Tree.

There was no need to overly pursue breakthroughs between life and death.

Humans can’t be lucky every time.

Suddenly, Lu Chenzhou leaped down from the city wall, striding through the air. His body twisted, his right arm bent backward, and then he lashed forward with a bow-like strike!

Tiger Claw Thirteen Slaps·Heavenly Return Slap!

A millstone-faced creature attempting to sneak attack Wang Hong from behind was sent flying, engulfed by a golden light explosion—erased. Landing on the ground, Lu Chenzhou said to Wang Hong,

"Brother Wang, take a break for a while, I’ll take over."

Lu Chenzhou realized that Wang Hong’s reactions had noticeably dulled. This was a sign of physical exertion not keeping up with his techniques and brain; the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak. There are limits to human endurance.

Wang Hong reluctantly said,

"Be careful. I’ll rest for two hours."

He ran to a corner and took Great Medicine to recuperate his strength.

Lu Chenzhou looked at the Martial Arts Tree.

[Tiger Claw Thirteen Slaps: Great Success (45%)]

"Come, let the battle begin!"

Lu Chenzhou roared, his tiger claws swiping like door panels back and forth, golden light emerging sporadically in the void, preventing any ordinary Void Things from getting close.

While fighting, he reminisced about his master’s attacks.

"Master’s three moves actually represent the three fundamental divine skills of the Tiger Form school: the Lower Grade Body Technique Divine Skill ’Flying Sky Qiongqi Body,’ the Middle Level Fist Technique Divine Skill ’Mountain Lord Inquiry Fist,’ and the Upper Level Inner Strength Divine Skill ’Lu Wu Demonic Scripture.’"

These three represented the epitome of Tiger Form movement technique, fist technique, and inner strength. The unique divine skills of other Tiger Form practitioners varied only slightly; understanding any single one could make one famous within the Tiger Form school, akin to a one-generation grandmaster.

...

Countless real battles, the three strikes from the Great Grandmaster... These insights cleared Lu Chenzhou’s mind like a mirror, subtly elevating his fist theory. The cultivation of "Tiger Claw Thirteen Slaps" also improved faster than usual mechanical punching, approaching sublime mastery.

Unconsciously, the battle had moved deep into the night in the Human World.

On the Martial Arts Tree, proficiency occasionally increased.

Lu Chenzhou no longer paid attention, focusing solely on punching and killing enemies.

...

Human World.

Imperial Capital, headquarters of the Martial Arts Association.

A figure sliced through the clouds and landed on the ground.

It was Wanshixian.

A staff member hurriedly approached, "President, there’s been a disturbance at the Taihu Virtual Realm, a new type of Void Thing has emerged, probably the work of the Heart Happiness Sect."

Another staff member also reported,

"There’s also a disturbance in Southern Border’s Hundred Thousand Mountains, a presence suspected to be above the Void Emperor emerged from the Forbidden Zone... Currently, the Dragon and Tiger Grand Sky Master has also returned to the Human World and is heading to the Southern Border."

Wanshixian inquired,

"Anything else?"

The staff member nodded,

"The uninhabited area in Qing Province, the Five Girls Mountain in Shu, the Nasi Lake in the Western Regions... The Void Realm converging point found in the eastern international waters, they all exhibit abnormal activities."

Wanshixian said,

"I see."

Back at the command center.

Wanshixian looked at the screen showing red lights over the danger zones.

"Those chaps from the Forbidden Zone have been lying low for so long, they are indeed planning something big, huh. On one hand, they send Void Emperors and Void Venerables to attack humanity’s Oasis City, distracting the Absolute Peak and Top Level experts, while on the other, they coordinate with more wild convergence points, colluding with Human World sects on the inside and the outside to stir up unrest, leaving the Martial Artists stretched thin."

The existence of the Forbidden Zone supremes was extremely powerful. Wanshixian wasn’t sure how powerful, but certainly above the Absolute Peak, otherwise he would have flattened the Forbidden Zone by now. Humanity’s greatest advantage was that these supreme beings, due to some rules, couldn’t leave.

However, how long this situation could last was unclear.

In the past, the emergence of just some Void Kings and Great Void Kings from within the Forbidden Zone were enough to cause disaster to the Human World, with rivers of blood and the fall of mighties.

All of a sudden.

Something caught Wanshixian’s intuition. His figure ascended high into the sky, and within the rolling clouds, a figure emerged barely visible, with a pair of glittering golden dragon eyes looking his way.

Wanshixian asked,

"Star River City hasn’t been attacked?"

The figure in the clouds shook its head, "An unknown Void Venerable led a Void Tide here, but I’ve destroyed it...I suspect this is the Forbidden Zone’s master probing our Absolute Peak’s strength. I was concerned about changes in the Human Realm and came to check on the situation."

Wanshixian said,

"There aren’t any Void Venerables in Imperial Capital City for now... If the strength of the Void Venerables is only this much, Da Xia can withstand it. What’s unclear is the maximum combat power that the Forbidden Zone’s beings can muster. If it surpasses the Absolute Peak, then we’re in trouble."

The figure in the clouds laughed,

"President, you’re about to Breakthrough Eighth, right? Hahaha, don’t worry, I’m not probing for information. I’ve just entered the Absolute Peak not long ago, and although I have several Divine Skills giving me some combat power, I’m still far from you on the path to Breaking through Eighth."

Wanshixian sighed,

"A bit more is needed, breaking through Eighth is much more challenging than Breakthrough Seven... I wonder if the other eleven comrades have found the right path. There’s not much time left."

Hearing this, the figure in the clouds chuckled lightly,

"Given your personality, a bit more...means success is certain. I’m here to congratulate you in advance for your Breakthrough Eighth success. Take the Martial Arts Mountain Peak in the Inner Realm a notch higher!"

After speaking, the golden dragon eyes disappeared into the sea of clouds, vanishing without a trace.

Wanshixian looked at the cloud sea and murmured to himself:
