At a glance, screams rang out as that noble young master was unexpectedly penetrated by the sword light! His inner core shattered! His lower body was severed by a bronze axe right at the waist! His intestines spilled onto the ground, and the dantian was pierced through by an iron rod, firmly pinned to the earth! Meanwhile, the ghostly figure with skin stretched over it continued to pound frantically with fists like the wind, directly aiming at the heart! Blood and flesh became indistinct, the flesh shredded like rain!

"Ah, ha ha ah!"

The noble young master wanted to scream again, but just as his breath reached his throat, it spurted out with hot blood, for unknowingly, his throat had also been split into two by sword energy, leaving a huge opening...

He died.

"Bang bang bang!"

Even after death, the figure continued hammering, until the body was thoroughly flattened, unable to be picked up, after which Huangfu Yi finally ceased his actions.

Is it over just like that? Didn't they say this round was high-end? Why did it feel pretty easy?

Even Huangfu Yi couldn't understand, and neither did he have time to think it through thoroughly.

Because he had exerted full strength right from the start, who would have thought the opponent would be so easily beaten to death, resulting in the accumulated True Qi within his body unable to be discharged, swiftly stirring his Qi Storage, turning the Dantian Qi Sea inside his body into a boiling rush, with all his muscles and bones cracking and stretching, every pore on his body breathing in comfort, even drawing in the Heaven and Earth Spirit Spring!

Withstand it, withstand it! Core Formation, Core Formation!

For the moment, Huangfu Yi couldn't bother with anything else, rapidly collected himself, and dove headfirst into the pool, mobilizing the Daoist energy throughout his being to assault the Qi Sea, trying to absorb the surging True Qi, cultivated the Basic Sword Control Technique from the finely honed Innate Sword Qi like an ox's hair already condensed, introduced into the Qi Sea Dantian, attempting to prevent a collapse... er, breakthrough during a slaying disaster.

He had broken through.

Huangfu Yi felt, in that instant, as if he had suddenly crossed that fine line between perception and unreachability.

Like a flash, the meridians and organs were emptied all at once, and the swirling Qi explosion within the Qi Sea wrapped around that thread of Innate Sword Qi, suddenly condensing into a bamboo leaf-like sword tip!

At this moment, an inner spiritual vision displayed the bamboo leaf, drawn by the needle-like Innate Sword Qi, growing nine veins, evolving into Taiji Nine Qi, its leaf colored blue-green with the hues of Danqing, evidently condensed from Innate Dao Breath!

The spiritual marrow of the Divine Court, the lotus flower within the Heart Chamber, and the bamboo leaf within the Dantian, interconnected through the meridians of the whole body, reflecting off one another, resonating and harmonizing, akin to a heartbeat, each explosive beat bringing the essence, energy, and spirit to a state of complete fullness!

What is this situation... can you reach Core Formation just with Basic Sword Control Technique?

"Plop!"

Just then, another dull thud suddenly interrupted Huangfu Yi's state of elevation, opening his eyes, he saw an iron axe had fallen over the water pool from above.

Hmm? Wait a minute...

Glance at the iron axe, then at the bronze axe and silver axe beside him; Huangfu Yi fell silent briefly.

"Wuu wuu wuu..."

Then came the sound of crying from the shore.

This unfolding...

Somewhat dazed, Huangfu Yi instinctively picked up the three axes and peeked his head out for a look.

There, by the lake, an old woodsman was crying, appearing to be an ordinary person.

The system didn't mention such a twist…

Unconsciously, Huangfu Yi walked out from under the water surface,

"Old sir, why are you crying here?"

The old man cried,

"Wuu wuu, I am old and useless, had a fall and lost my axe."

A slip…

Huangfu Yi inspected the marks on the ground; err, after just killing two, the shore indeed was stained a mess of blood...

"Oh, is this your axe?"

So Huangfu Yi handed over the iron axe he picked up, only to see the old man shaking his head,

"No."

"No?"

Huangfu Yi was stunned, momentarily wondering if he had asked in the wrong order.

Then the old man lifted his head, cast his quiet eyes over, and pointed at the gold and silver dual axes at Huangfu Yi's waist.

"That iron one belongs to my master, needs to be returned later. These two are mine, unexpectedly ended up in your hands."

In a moment of bewilderment, Huangfu Yi's heart tightened suddenly, and a loud trill of "Wuuu——!" abruptly echoed in his mind! The horn in his bosom even vibrated and roared, shocking him awake in a flash!

This is wrong! A secret realm disaster! How could there be an ordinary woodsman! And clearly right in front of him, why couldn't he see the features or expressions! He's a master!

But by the time he realized this, it was already too late. Before Huangfu Yi could react, the woodsman had grabbed his wrist, pulling him from the water to his side, casually retrieving the gold and silver dual axes, shaking his head as he sighed,

"Walking by the river often gets you wet; alas, your trip made me stumble severely.

A millennium of calculations ending in ruin in an instant. Such a pity, such a pity, the Heavenly Destiny is unchangeable after all…"

Huangfu Yi roared,

"Unleash!"

However, no sword aura emerged, nor was any sword hiss heard, leaving only the woodsman holding Huangfu Yi with one hand, with the other conjuring, as though performing magic, the Leech Horn, Nine Heavens Sword Pavilion, Thousand-Petal Screen, golden rod, iron plate, one by one to the ground, lastly fishing out a sword bag, lifting it for a look,

"Sword Sect? Dragon Temple? Crane Temple? Or from the palace? No, no, these things should not belong to you, all of them stolen, mere blinding techniques…"

Then he suddenly twisted his head, staring coldly at Huangfu Yi,

"Kid! Which dog bastard pointed you to foil my grand scheme! Speak honestly for a swift death!"

Seeing even the sword bag was taken from him, his wrist squeezed blue from a Break Defense grip, and the Mysterious Lady Refining Form Gang Fist Dominating Body proving useless, Huangfu Yi knew he was in deep trouble this time, a trial smashed hard like hitting an iron plate.

Momentarily bewildered and shaken, he regretted not running immediately after eliminating the two as suggested by the system…

The woodsman's brows furrowed, "Westward Flow? Whose Taoist name is that, never heard of it…"
