Finally taking advantage of this fleeting moment, Chen Yi instantly reacted, his expression changing dramatically. His Divine Thought swiftly entered a super sensing state, rapidly urging the massive True Qi within his body. At this moment, the terrifying Power erupted from within him to its zenith.

Blast upon blast of visible thunder and lightning encircled Chen Yi, then surged toward Lu Ren like a thunderous serpent.

Very dangerous!!

Without any hesitation, Lu Ren's entire body emitted a faint golden glow. Under the surging of the Ten Earth True Qi, he formed a True Gang around him, the golden radiance pulsating, exuding an invincible aura of bravery and dominance capable of suppressing all.

The extremely fierce Power erupted at this moment.

Boom!!

Under the fierce attack of the massive electric serpent, Lu Ren was like a cannonball shot, flying back and crashing into the entire main hall engulfed in raging flames behind him.

Chen Yi finally calmed down, realizing how many years it had been since he last felt such a near-death experience.

The moment Lu Ren's fist struck him, it instantly awakened a fear he thought he had long subdued.

Years of living in comfort had somewhat dulled his combat awareness.

Chen Yi gasped heavily for air, his face extremely pale, pupils dilated, as the adrenaline rush from a moment ago left his body in a less than favorable state.

The surging True Qi within him continuously circulated, interconnecting with the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Mechanism through the celestial spirit at the top of his head and the Yongquan at his feet.

In just a few breaths, Chen Yi adjusted his mood, uniting his Spirit and mind, synchronizing his True Essence Power with the heavens and earth, entering a state of Unity of Heaven and Man, where the inner and outer world merged.

The hurriedly invoked thunder strike earlier definitely hadn't killed Lu Ren, who walked the path of body cultivation, and would be quite terrifying once he got close.

Chen Yi's expression turned cold and stern, his gaze sharp, with a faint silver glow seeming to swirl around him, moving along with his every gesture.

He slowly spoke: "Since I stepped into the Determination Path Realm twenty years ago, it's been many years since I felt threatened like you have today."

Chen Yi glanced at the ruins and then in the direction where Guo Muyang fled, confirming that the other's presence was still within his sensory range, finally slightly relaxing his mind.

But he also understood that this matter couldn't drag on too long. The Taihang Sword Sect wasn't just those two of them. To hold back that Supreme Elder level super expert of Taihang Sword Sect, several people had already dragged him into the depths of the Taihang Mountain Range, bribing the high echelons of the Taihang Sword Sect internally.

Only with such internal and external cooperation could they swiftly annihilate a first-class sword sect completely in just a day.

The Great Ming Royal Family, allied with four top-tier sects, executed such a swift and decisive operation.

And Chen Yi, left behind to clean up the battlefield, had actually picked up a bargain.

If Guo Muyang could be refined into a Human Pill... No, using the method of seizure to transform the other's body into his own would better unleash the power of the Pure Yang Constitution.

Crash!!

A huge arm emerged from the burning ruins.

Immediately, under Chen Yi's incredulous gaze, Lu Ren, who had unbound the Ten Lands, walked out from the ruins in the Eighteen Feet Golden Body Bodhisattva Dharma Aspect form.

"You are actually a Shakyamuni's Disciple of the Buddhist Zen Sect?!"

Chen Yi's gaze flickered incessantly: "It's quite novel indeed. Ever since the extermination of Buddhism a thousand years ago, the Buddhist Sect in the world has perished. I thought they mostly retreated into the wilds, remaining overseas. I didn't expect to see a Shakyamuni in action here today."

Lu Ren's expression was calm, and he understood this matter as well.

At the founding of the Great Ming Dynasty, there was a Buddhist disaster, which even led to the decline and fall of the previous dynasty being greatly related to the Buddhist Sect. As a result, when the Great Ming was established, it allied with cultivation sects outside the Buddhist sect under the banner of enlightening the world, slaying the Demon Buddha, and saving the people, launching a Buddhist extermination campaign.

At that time, the Buddhist Sect was extremely powerful, even being the country's imperial tutor of the previous dynasty, reaching a height of influencing the court, turning a deer into a horse.

They strongly oppressed the people, with many impoverished people working the tax-free lands as Buddha Slaves.

The top was wealthy and big-headed, while the bottom was starving, with frozen bones by the roadside.

Such actions surely courted their own doom.

"It seems the Beidou has traces of Shakyamuni as well."

Lu Ren's expression turned odd. During his time at the Moon Palace, the vision he saw was intentionally shown by Chang Xin, named the Wandering People's explorer.

In pursuit of ultimate Extraordinary Power, due to the fluctuations of tides, they chased the extraordinary waves that were stirred up, following the footsteps toward the depths of the starry sky.

And stretching their steps across the Heaven, Earth, and Human Three Realms, Shakyamuni and Lao Tzu, these two figures at the level of Buddhist and Taoist Lineages Great Power, seemed to have joined the ranks of the Wandering People, following along this route.

Now, a question lingered in Lu Ren's mind: on Earth, as the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Mechanism from the Kunlun Exotic Realm and the Hidden World continuously invaded and merged, it seemed to trigger some mechanism. The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Mechanism of Earth was slowly awakening as if rebounding from its nadir, rapidly heating up.

Would the ancient Immortal Gods who left return because of this?

Lost in myriad thoughts, Lu Ren's deeply profound golden pupils stared at Chen Yi. With the Seventh Far-Reaching Land Bodhisattva Dharma Aspect Golden Body, his eyes seemingly turned entirely metallic, bearing only a round trace of golden pupils, identifiable as Lu Ren's eyeballs.

"To think you've remained stagnant in the Determination Path Realm for twenty years without progressing forward; is it because your innate talent has been exhausted?"

Lu Ren's words provoked Chen Yi, who had always maintained a decent disposition, into a towering rage.

This one sentence truly struck his sore spot, for indeed, ever since stepping into the Determination Path Realm, it felt as though his potential had been completely exhausted, with his Spiritual disappearing entirely, leaving him with no progress except grinding over time, slowly deepening his Taoist practice.

Finally finding a Guo Muyang, he could finally see a glimmer of hope.

"You're seeking death!"

Chen Yi muttered an incantation, his hands forming seals.

Lu Ren raised an eyebrow, not hesitating at all. As he took a step, with each footfall, the entire mountaintop seemed to tremble; within a moment, he had broken the sound barrier, and owing to the short distance linear acceleration, his explosive burst at that instant reached three times the speed of sound.

In less than a blink of an eye, Lu Ren, with relentless Power, using his shoulder as an axis, the phoenix wings tattoo at his shoulder blades ignited in flames at that moment, further adding a burst of speed.

Thud!!

A muffled sound, a visible shockwave wavelets rippled away from the collision point between the two, the shockwave cracking the ground, reaching out ten meters.

The faint silver glow surrounding Chen Yi shattered in an instant.

The next moment, Chen Yi, closely pushed by Lu Ren's shoulder axis, was slammed heavily into a rock wall fifty meters away.

"The precursor for your Masters' spells is somewhat too long."

During the speech, Lu Ren's actions didn't pause for a moment. His Eighteen Feet Golden Body at this moment, due to the cellular biting structure beginning and under the Beidou Emperor Star's gravity environment ten times stronger than Earth's, his body actually further shrank at this moment.
