"Yu Brother, the visitor comes with ill intent, grab your weapon!" Ma Yuzhao said aloud.

Yu Chenfeng was already prepared. Upon hearing this, he reached under his bed to grab a pair of small hammers.

They were small copper hammers with fist-sized heads, arm-length handles, and chains.

Lin Qianxuan didn't wait for his opponents to be ready. He twisted his spear, stepped forward, and fiercely thrust at Ma Yuzhao.

At some point, Ma Yuzhao had a feather fan in his hand.

It seemed not to be made from real feathers, but woven from some kind of metal.

The feather fan swung, fanning toward Lin Qianxuan.

Lin Qianxuan's spear suddenly retracted, as he tapped lightly and retreated swiftly.

"Boom~!"

Scorching flames fanned out from the feather fan, covering several meters in front of Lin Qianxuan.

The heat wave swept over, causing him to frown slightly.

If he hadn't dodged, he might have been scorched by the red flame. Even with timely inner qi protection, he would have been in an embarrassing state.

However, through this move, he discerned the opponent's identity.

Red Flame Fan Ma Yuzhao.

The Manor Master of Wanxiang Manor.

An innate master among loose cultivators.

How did he connect with the Yu Family?

"Little thief, take this!"

Almost as soon as the words fell, Yu Chenfeng's hammer came flying over.

Even though the hammer was only fist-sized, its power was not weak.

Lin Qianxuan, drawn by the incoming hammer, blocked with his spear.

"Clang~!"

Lin Qianxuan's figure struggled and was pushed into the courtyard.

On the opposite side, Yu Chenfeng pulled slightly, using the force to catch the flying hammer. At some point, Ma Yuzhao had stealthily moved to Lin Qianxuan's side, his feather fan waving, innate true qi bringing a trace of heat, burning toward Lin Qianxuan's back neck.

"Boom~!"

Lin Qianxuan's inner qi burst at his feet, creating a pit in the ground and even shattering the sole of his shoe, causing him to shoot backward, evading the attack.

Facing two innate masters simultaneously was not easy for him.

Yu Chenfeng pursued, the chain of the double hammers shook with sound, one hammer flying straight at Lin Qianxuan.

Lin Qianxuan took a steady step and swiped, the spear shaft clashing with the flying hammer.

"Boom~!"

The flying hammer deflected to the side, smashing a head-sized pit in the ground, then flew back to Yu Chenfeng's palm.

On the other side, Ma Yuzhao displayed his lightweight skill, stepping over three meters in a single stride, the feather fan in his hand sweeping lightly, a streak of red true qi scattering, scorching a few hairs and strands of Lin Qianxuan's hair, while the flowerbed where Lin Qianxuan initially stood was completely turned to charcoal.

No time to celebrate, the flying hammer approached again, this time with a faint blue glow, leaving Lin Qianxuan with no choice but to sweep with his spear.

"Clang~!"

His spear, refined with high-quality steel, now bore a cut mark from the slash.

Though not deep, it reminded Lin Qianxuan not to take the opponent's attacks lightly.

True qi's energy comes from heaven and earth, hence inherently possesses special attributes.

Ma Yuzhao's true qi had a scorching temperature, like a fierce flame, thus earning him the title of Red Flame Fan.

And Yu Chenfeng's Wind-Rattling Hammer was even more formidable, though he wielded a blunt weapon, his true qi seemed to carry a sharp attribute, slicing gold and jade with ease.

If one mistakenly assumed he dealt blunt damage without proper defense, it could result in a lethal strike.

Lin Qianxuan had just saved on inner qi, directly clashing the spear against the opponent.

If not for his well-crafted spear, that clash would have shattered it and cost him his life.

The opponent's innate true qi would have instantly sliced through the spear and then his body.

"Sneaky old fox!"

Lin Qianxuan couldn't help but silently curse, while also channeling inner qi to protect his spear, colliding with the next flying hammer.

His inner qi cultivation, though raised by a small realm, had undergone some qualitative change, also slightly increasing in quantity.

But ultimately it didn't have many special attributes. The only commendable aspect was its control and ease of use.

This allowed Lin Qianxuan to perform many tricks.

For example, injecting inner qi into the spear, shaping more diverse forms, producing lotus-like spear beams at the tip.

Also, the burst speed of inner qi could be faster and more powerful.

Thus, the advantage of inner qi lies in technique.

"Whoosh whoosh~!"

Heat waves came rushing, but this time Lin Qianxuan did not dodge. With a wave of his sleeve, inner qi dispersed, creating a wind to extinguish the opponent's flames.

At the same time, he launched an aggressive move towards Ma Yuzhao.

The spear was spinning, the tip's spear beams striking fiercely.

Ma Yuzhao's close-combat skills were apparently not strong, relying on the special nature of his innate true qi, playing tricks like "Blowing Fire" and distant palm force.

This level of martial arts was fine against ordinary postnatal masters, but against those of the same realm, it fell short.

"Clatter clatter clatter~! Clang clang clang~!"

The spear spun, scraping the feather fan, producing sparks. Even with both hands gripping the fan, Ma Yuzhao couldn't stop Lin Qianxuan's advancing posture, his true qi protection already penetrated by Lin Qianxuan's more concentrated inner qi.

"Swoosh~!"

Seeing Lin Qianxuan about to defeat Ma Yuzhao, the sound of wind in his ears caused his movements to stall.

"Clang~! Bang~!"

Lin Qianxuan blocked the flying hammer with his spear, stumbled backward, barely coming to a stop, leaving a several-meter-long furrow on the ground.

He was slightly out of breath.

The Inner Qi consumption was already more than half, and this was his weakness.

Compared to Innate Masters who could continuously recover True Qi, his endurance was clearly insufficient.

The previous opportunity was already the best chance he could find for a kill; it would be hard to find such an opening again.

Ma Yuzhao knew that with his fierce attacks, he would definitely not rashly approach him again.

The three of them were in a standoff, all contemplating the situation.

Ma Yuzhao and Yu Chenfeng now roughly guessed Lin Qianxuan's identity.

They couldn't let Lin Qianxuan leave anymore.

The Lanxi Sect had a True Disciple with Lin Qianxuan's level of strength, and they feared that once he returned, their death date would come.

As for reconciliation?

In Jianghu, there's only one scenario for reconciliation, and that's when both sides have similar strength, being wary of each other.

But the Lanxi Sect, to which Lin Qianxuan belonged, was absolutely dominant; how could they possibly reconcile with them?

"Young friend, you possess extraordinary grace and strength, but I don't know where I, Yu Chenfeng, have offended you, to have you come after us like this? Could there be some misunderstanding in all this?" Yu Chenfeng spoke up.

He clearly knew what he had done but was trying a psychological approach.

Lin Qianxuan didn't respond but slightly tightened his grip on the spear shaft, pursing his lips, he spoke to himself, "I created a spear technique before, which I couldn't demonstrate because of cultivation limitations. Now that fate has brought us together, let me test my skills on you."

While speaking, the pure Inner Qi within Lin Qianxuan's body was slowly channeling into the spear, compressing.

The long spear made a creaking sound, caused by the overloading of Inner Qi.

At the same time, Lin Qianxuan felt slight pain in his meridians.

Compressing Inner Qi isn't an easy task.

Normal Inner Qi is already the limit a Martial Artist can control.

Only when displaying Martial Techniques does Inner Qi coalesce at the moment of outburst to achieve power far beyond normal limits.

However, even that's no more than a fifty percent compression.

Martial Techniques capable of compressing Inner Qi more than double are not present in the Lanxi Sect, and rare in the world.

It's either because it can't be done or it's unnecessary.

Compressing more than double still can't compare to Innate True Qi.

Moreover, what Martial Artist has a physique strong enough to manipulate Inner Qi like that?

But Lin Qianxuan, in Martial Arts Creation, did not consider these.

He just created, as long as it was theoretically feasible.

As for how many conditions the theory requires, that was none of his concern!

At this moment, he was compressing Inner Qi comparable to Innate True Qi.

The Inner Qi was constantly changing until at a certain moment, its nature slightly altered.

The originally transparent Inner Qi had now become white as jade, dense as fat.

The entire long spear seemed like it was turning into jade.

Now the Inner Qi on the spear was compressed to at least four times the quality of Lin Qianxuan's normal Inner Qi in his Dantian!

Lin Qianxuan no longer hesitated, his form leapt high as he thrust his spear, heading straight for Ma Yuzhao.

Ma Yuzhao almost immediately understood that he couldn't stop this spear.

"Whoosh~!"

Ma Yuzhao waved the fan, and flames enveloped Lin Qianxuan, but Lin Qianxuan was already unstoppable, the flames formed by Innate True Qi burned through his hair tie, ignited his clothes, and singed his skin, yet the spear still advanced.

Yu Chenfeng understood his fate was tied to Ma Yuzhao's and gripped his Copper Hammer, blocking Lin Qianxuan's spear.

But this was exactly Lin Qianxuan's intent.

The blue True Qi whirled around the Copper Hammer, and the sharpness left several scars on Lin Qianxuan's cheek.

Yet, at the moment the spear met the Copper Hammer, it was as if it pierced into tofu, effortlessly penetrating the Copper Hammer, breaking through the True Qi's defense.

Squish~!

The spear pierced through Yu Chenfeng's chest.

Squish~!

The spear tip penetrated Ma Yuzhao's neck, piercing through both, stringing them together.

Lin Qianxuan flicked his arm, Inner Qi burst from the spear, destroying the meridians inside the two, and at the areas where the spear pierced, acupoints exploded instantly, spraying blood.

The next instant, Lin Qianxuan appeared behind Ma Yuzhao, withdrew the spear, and walked quickly.

Behind him, the blood from the two flowed like it cost nothing, spilling onto the ground.

The jade-like glow of the long spear in Lin Qianxuan's hand faded, leaving only a melted spear tip and a spear shaft marred with axe and sword cuts.

[Tip: You challenged and defeated two Mid-Innate Masters in the Postnatal Realm, gaining the "Rare in the World" level milestone [Exceeding Level Coalescence].]

[Exceeding Level Coalescence: The Root Bone attributes of enemies you kill beyond your level will all be absorbed by you. (Note: In your view, realm differences seem nonexistent.)]

The level of this milestone was one he had never seen before, a "Rare in the World" level, with the color of the text presented in blue.

Suddenly, Lin Qianxuan felt the stinging pain from his meridians lessen significantly.

He had a hunch, likely because he had absorbed the Root Bone attributes of Yu Chenfeng and Ma Yuzhao.

The addition of the Root Bone attributes from two Masters capable of reaching the Innate level, one couldn't help but wonder if his current Root Bone, if quantified, would measure up significantly?

Lin Qianxuan stepped, intending to rest on the side, but as he took the step, he stumbled, nearly falling.

"Screech~!"

You Xi swooped down, catching the falling Lin Qianxuan, allowing him to lie on her back.

Then she gently pecked Lin Qianxuan on the head, seemingly scolding him for his recklessness.

Lin Qianxuan dropped the spear, holding You Xi, said, "I dare do it again next time."

Yet You Xi did not continue to complain, just gently smoothing Lin Qianxuan's disheveled long hair.
