Chapter 545: 0352 Accompanying the Tiger to Jiangnan, Witnessing the Dao at Yun Meng Lake (5k)_2

The burly man knew that Lu Chenzhou could reverse the battle realm and break through the third level of the Black-robed Gun Demon.

But he didn’t expect that his Third Realm strength, paired with modern weaponry for a stealth attack, wouldn’t harm him in the slightest.

After dozens of loud explosions, Lu Chenzhou’s feet were suspended in mid-air. Like a swallow, he dodged a blade light that shot towards the sky and ascended to a height of a hundred feet.

"Quick, bring him down for me! Little Eight, use your Tang Sect hidden weapon!"

After another round of ineffective attacks, the burly man’s expression turned uncertain. He held his long blade and... turned and fled!

"Brothers, this guy’s too tough, split up and run!"

The motley crew scattered in an instant. Lu Chenzhou opened his mouth and spat out alloy bullets, which shot through the air. Shadows fell to the ground in response, clutching their legs and howling in pain, their faces filled with terror. Lu Chenzhou rode the gale, walking in the air. He quickly caught up to the burly man in the vest: "May I ask you a question?"

The burly man in the vest knew he couldn’t run away, so he turned around and slashed out with a blade. The rainbow glow hadn’t even approached when it was shattered by a punch from Lu Chenzhou: "What do you want to ask?"

Lu Chenzhou asked earnestly: "What is Dao?"

The burly man in the vest: "???"

He thought Lu Chenzhou was going to ask him who he was and who was behind the scenes.

"Making fun of me, go to hell! Don’t think being a genius makes you unbeatable!"

With the momentum of a moth to a flame, he slashed towards Lu Chenzhou. The blade light was like a cascading silk, and the tendons and bones rang like a whale.

Lu Chenzhou realized: "I understand, your Dao... is the Dao of seeking death! Then I’ll grant your wish!"

His figure soared infinitely higher, and the Qiongqi Spirit behind him transformed into the phantom of a mountain god with a tiger head and a human body.

Essence, spirit, and qi unified, he dropped the encapsulated energy, forming a black divine mountain of fist shadows that locked onto the burly man and crashed down!

Martial Arts Killing Move: Divine Mountain Pressing!

Bang bang bang—the burly man roared, raising his blade to slash out. At the moment the fist collided with the blade, his leg bones cracked, blood sprayed, and his body bent like a freakish pine tree weighed down by snow. If he hadn’t practiced fighting techniques, he would have already knelt. His heart quivered: "A punch shaking my divine weapon?? What kind of monster is this?"

Secret Technique: Whale Flood!

The burly man unleashed a fighting killing move; his spirit surged like a massive torrent, transforming into a giant white whale that crashed towards Lu Chenzhou.

The red tiger head conjured by the Tiger Subduing Seal roared out, piercing through the white whale and imprinting on the burly man’s forehead, rendering him momentarily dazed. Lu Chenzhou landed on the ground, the Green Snake on his right arm curving and knotting, golden flames surrounding him like dragons. His muscles tightened and loosened in turn, and his punch shot forth like a big spear, piercing through the burly man’s left chest and pulling out a charred, blazing heart.

The burly man spat fresh blood, his vitality rapidly fading, and the Tiger Head Saber fell powerlessly.

He stared at Lu Chenzhou, smiling: "No wonder you’re a genius. In peaceful times, with your prowess, you’d undoubtedly rise to great heights and be remembered forever. But in this endless dark night, what good is a genius? Even if you’re at the absolute peak, so what? A man’s life is but a moment to the divine. When the curtain shatters, you too will turn to nothingness."

Lu Chenzhou asked: "What’s your name?"

The burly man replied: "Zhang Dongshan."

Lu Chenzhou shook his head: "Never heard of you."

The burly man’s expression twisted, and he laughed: "Of course, how could I compare to a Martial Arts Genius like you?"

His muscles buzzed, his body swelled like a balloon, and he exploded with a boom.

Lu Chenzhou soared into the clouds, avoiding the dirty blood mist that splattered.

"A fighting master, reduced to a bandit... Why bother? Your will was too weak."

He picked up the Tiger Head Saber and the storage ring. The saber, named [Tiger Flood Dragon], was a low-class divine weapon, useless to him but could be exchanged for some battle merits.

The ring also had nothing good, just a middle-level true skill fighting technique and some marginally useful cultivation resources.

Finally, he stood before the remaining four people, asking coldly:

"Who sent you?"

"If we tell you, will you give us a chance to turn over a new leaf?"

"No... You’ve already been stained with too much blood."

"You can’t kill us. This is an abuse of private punishment! We demand to be handed over to the judicial authorities!"

A burst of fist wind shattered the four of them into pieces, and they were silenced forever.

Feeling a sense of resonance, Lu Chenzhou sighed: "Your Dao went astray."

You could have relied on your own hands to labor and prosper, but instead, you took advantage of the arrival of the Dark Night Era to plunder your compatriots.

People like this, if left alive, are a blight on civilization.

He found the hiding place of Brother Tiger and disappeared into the wilderness.

High in the sky, an unfathomable figure silently watched everything, without joy or sorrow.

...

In the following month.

Lu Chenzhou traveled on foot, accompanied by a tiger down to Jiangnan.

He went to Magic City and asked Wang Gang what Dao was. Wang Gang was dumbstruck, you ask me, I ask who?

He asked Ye Chen, who said, the Dao of Yong Chun, is the sun and moon, it is to make friends with fists, and defeat heroes of the world!

He went to Hang City, initially intending to ask Jiangnan Wu University’s chief student Ye Lingyun, but since Ye was currently busy in seclusion for breakthrough, he let it go.

He asked the Garrison Commander of Hang City, Grandmaster Gong. Elder Gong said his Dao, like his title, is Absolute God.

A thousand people have a thousand interpretations of Dao.

Dao is ambition, pursuit, it is a kind of comprehension that can represent the essence, spirit, and qi of a martial artist!

As time passed, while practicing the ’Mountain Lord Inquiry Fist,’ he inquired about Dao from people, and his Martial Arts Tree gradually grew to a height of ninety-five feet.

During this period, there were occasionally some fools who came to pick a fight, and after inquiring about Dao, he sent them off with a punch.

...

Yun Meng Base City, formerly Yueyang City.

Dongting Lake, which will eventually become the prototype of Yun Meng Lake, is expanding like a tide, gradually connecting to other large lakes.

Lu Chenzhou settled here, ending his journey of seeking Dao.

At this time, his Martial Arts Tree had already reached ninety-nine feet, only one step away.

Through asking Dao from others, he gained many insights, but the most crucial one was to ask himself!

As he practiced his punches, he pondered:
