The person holding a silver spear and battling his opponent was none other than Prince Ji!
His cousin!
Prince Ji also found it incredible that the shameless bastard who stole his grey bat had actually appeared here again?
Dammit!
Truly like a lingering spirit!
Or is he just targeting me?
The Trial Field is so vast, why do you have to run into me?
Prince Ji was feeling annoyed, although it did not affect his battle with his opponent, the very clear expression on his face was caught by his adversary.
His opponent was a youth who looked to be in his thirties, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, but with short hair, wearing a black tight-fitting outfit, looking very spirited. His strength was astonishing, each strike forceful and heavy, easily enough to shatter the void.
The fluctuations emitted could instantly reduce a warrior of the earthly owner realm to ashes.
The young man in the black tight-fitting outfit frowned upon seeing someone arriving, but upon seeing Prince Ji's expression, he raised his brow slightly and while fighting, asked with a hint of mockery, "What? Ran into another enemy?"
"Xue Wulei, cut the crap. Although I'm no match for you, it won't be easy for you to kill me. I'll fight to the death if needed, and you won't get off easily either!" Prince Ji's voice was as cold as ice, displaying his usual arrogance.
Chu Mo's heart stirred, and his face showed a hint of surprise. He did not expect that this young man was actually Xue Wulei, who ranked ninth on the Heavenly Ranking. Xue Wulei's strength was definitely far beyond that of Prince Ji. But as Prince Ji said, it would not be so easy for him to kill Prince Ji.
The enmity between Xue Wulei and Prince Ji had long been established. The two had been entangled with grievances and grudges from the Luotian Immortal Domain all the way to the Trial Field.
Despite Prince Ji having the backing of the Luotian Imperial Clan, Xue Wulei was not at all intimidated by him. Behind Xue Wulei was a far more powerful deity, an old ancestor of the Xue Family, a top-tier supreme existence of the ancestral realm.
Thus, even if Xue Wulei really killed Prince Ji here, he would not be afraid of retaliation from the Luotian Imperial Clan. However, for Xue Wulei, the best outcome would be to kill Prince Ji quietly, without anyone noticing. Once it was witnessed, the news would surely spread quickly.
Ji Qi, Prince Ji's brother, would then surely use this year's challenge spot on himself. Against Ji Qi, Xue Wulei did not have such strong confidence.
Xue Wulei looked coldly at Prince Ji, a smirk of mockery flashing across his lips: "Prince Ji, you, a defeated lackey, still have the nerve to speak with confidence? Do you think because someone has come, you'll luckily escape disaster today? Why don't you hurry up and run to your brother Ji Qi to cling to his thigh and cry for help?"
Prince Ji's face flushed with a wave of anger, and he said furiously: "Xue Wulei, there's no need for you to be so arrogant. Sooner or later, I, Prince Ji, will personally flay your skin!"
"Hahaha," Xue Wulei laughed coldly, "I'll be waiting!"
Prince Ji glared at Chu Mo fiercely, then, without another word, turned and left. Although this sudden appearance of the fellow spared him a desperate fight today, Prince Ji was far from grateful to Chu Mo. He had been seen at his most embarrassing moment.
However, the moment Prince Ji turned around, a smug smile appeared on his lips. He thought to himself: Kid, this time it's your bad luck!
Seeing Prince Ji instantly tear through the void and leave, Xue Wulei's lips curled into a cold mocking smile, and then turned his gaze to Chu Mo, gave him a few glances up and down, and said indifferently: "Kid, you've ruined my good deed. Tell me, how do you want to die?"
Chu Mo was taken aback and frowned: "What does this have to do with me? If you're unhappy, you can chase after him and kill him. I promise I won't interfere."
"You've got to be qualified enough to participate!" said Xue Wulei coldly, and then in his eyes, the world began to collapse. Clearly, murderous intent was rising in his heart.
"Draw your weapon!" Xue Wulei immediately raised his fighting spirit to the peak and pointed at Chu Mo: "Your interference with my kill, you'll pay with your life!"
"Are you sick?" Chu Mo was utterly perplexed.
"These are my rules," Xue Wulei said, while striking a palm towards Chu Mo: "Anyone who disturbs my battle, I'll pursue to the end!"
"What kind of nonsensical rule is that?" Chu Mo dodged swiftly, his figure suddenly appearing in the far-off void. Now he began to understand why Prince Ji had left so quickly – it was to divert Prince Ji's attention onto himself.
Dammit!
In his heart, Chu Mo silently cursed Prince Ji for being despicable.
But he had no choice but to focus up and fight with Xue Wulei.
Both were in the Supreme Realm, and the surge of energy from their battle was even stronger than the fluctuations emitted during the fight between Xue Wulei and Prince Ji.
A light suddenly shone in Xue Wulei's eyes, and he couldn't help saying, "Not bad..."
He had already struck over three thousand palms by the time he said "not".
He struck over four thousand more palms as he said "bad".
And when he said "yeah", another five thousand palms followed!
Three words, a dozen thousand hits!
Each blow forceful and heavy, each could easily shatter a huge star.
Over twelve thousand palms, almost covering the entire void!
In the skies, virtually everywhere was filled with the palm shadows left by Xue Wulei. Large swaths of the void collapsed under his palms. His vast power tore apart the entire space. Chu Mo, within this space, was completely sealed by Xue Wulei's power.
At that moment, Chu Mo used his splitting firewood technique!
With one slash, he cleaved through the myriad palm shadows!
With a single stroke, the entire void was rent apart.
Making Xue Wulei's attack fall into emptiness in an instant!
A trace of shock flashed through Xue Wulei's eyes, squinting at Chu Mo: "Not bad... your Daoism is quite profound!"
As he spoke, over thirty thousand palms were hurled towards Chu Mo from every corner of space.
His speed was too fast, and his attacking methods seemed simple, yet there were no blind spots.
The only solution was to clash head-on with him!
And close combat was exactly what Xue Wulei preferred.
But coincidentally, Chu Mo liked it too!
Clang!
Once again, Chu Mo unleashed a slash to break open Xue Wulei's field, then, he swung his fists, starting to punch.
"So what about being in the top ten of the Heavenly Ranking...?"
When Chu Mo uttered the word "Heavenly," he had already thrown over five thousand fists, and by the time he said "Ranking," he had launched over ten thousand. In total, this nine-word statement meant that Chu Mo had executed over ninety thousand punches by the time he finished speaking!
Bang bang bang bang...!
The vast expanse of the void was filled everywhere with the thunderous sound of explosions.
The close-quarters combat between the two practically turned white-hot in an instant!
Bang bang bang!
Yet another barrage of dull thudding sounds from their fists and feet collided, sending out a terrifying signal.
The physical bodies of these two individuals were both too strong!
Shock filled the hearts of both men.
Chu Mo thought: Could it be I've encountered a cultivator whose fleshly body is second only to mine, could he also possess an ancestral realm physique?
Xue Wulei was completely stunned, receiving a blow that Chu Mo couldn't have possibly imagined!
How could this man possess a physique stronger than mine? My physique... should be the strongest in the entire Luotian Great Universe!
This irrational world is full of irrational powerhouses. Many people say that it's impossible for someone to be so strong from birth, and that one must strive and work hard in the later stages of life.
But Xue Wulei was too strong, he was immensely powerful from the moment he was born!
That's because he had an unparalleled ancestor, and his parents were "children" greatly favored by that supreme being. Therefore, when Xue Wulei was born, he was immediately blessed by that ancestor, who used divine abilities to wash his marrow and transform his physique.
Without detailing the process, the involvement of a being from the ancestral realm naturally ensured extraordinary results. Although Xue Wulei's physical body did not undergo full body bone refining and blood refinement to achieve an ancestral realm physique like Chu Mo's, the difference was not much. His physique was definitely far superior to that of the Daoist Realm!
Afterward, that supreme being from the ancestral realm allowed Xue Wulei to stay by his side for three years, diligently instructing him all the while. Only after these three years did he allow Xue Wulei to return to his family.
This almost legendary experience made Xue Wulei far stronger than his peers from a very young age.
However, perhaps because of this experience, the pride ingrained deep within Xue Wulei's bones was also always much stronger than that of other children his age.
He couldn't help but be proud, for with such an experience, anyone would be filled with pride.
Therefore, everything has its advantages and disadvantages. Xue Wulei surpassed his peers at a very young age. But in his journey towards enlightenment, especially after reaching the path, the advantage from his past became smaller and smaller. Finally, he was surpassed by some of his contemporaries. For Xue Wulei, this was an unbearable blow, but he never publicly expressed it. Instead, he worked even harder, aiming to overtake them and reclaim his place as the number one among his contemporaries!
But how easy is that? You strive, others strive as well, and some even work harder than you!
Especially after reaching the Daoist Realm, at the level of the supreme, there's less and less that others can do to help you. Almost every step requires your own enlightenment, every advancement must be made independently.
Xue Wulei wasn't dull; his talent was quite remarkable, definitely ranked among the top tier of his age group. But that was just one of them, not the only one.
In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged more than thirty thousand rounds!
Without spells or weapons, they engaged in pure close combat!
However, the result displayed by their realm of close combat was astonishing.
Xue Wulei gritted his teeth, looking at Chu Mo coldly: "What physique do you have? How can you possibly be stronger than me?"
Chu Mo bared his teeth with a smile: "The killer physique!"
