Remember in one second 【↘→】, providing you with exciting novel reading. "Rumble"
Within the hundred-foot radius enveloped by brilliant elemental energy, intense fluctuations swept in all directions!
"Bang Bang Bang"
The sound of punches landing on flesh echoed continuously, but one of them sounded like a strange noise, as if striking metal.
"Thud"
Ye Wuxie's lips curled slightly, his eyes blazing with fierce dominance. His right fist, enveloped in a pale golden holy path battle aura, smashed towards the thick arms protecting the chest of the third dark silver puppet!
"Swish"
The third dark silver puppet was immediately flipped over by a powerful force, its tall figure unable to resist the pressure from the flesh and blood cultivator on the opposite side, being thoroughly suppressed.
"This third dark silver puppet is even weaker than Zheng Dao from the Blade City, but its strength and metallic body are indeed terrifying. A typical peak mid-stage Spirit Essence Realm cultivator would not be its match if they faced it."
With broad and sweeping movements, Ye Wuxie tightly adhered to the third dark silver puppet, continuously swinging and smashing his fists, fully utilizing the power of the holy path battle aura.
The dark silver puppet is made from a special metal through a unique method, obedient to its master's commands, without life, only capable of fighting.
Thus, no matter how terrifying the force from Ye Wuxie's punches and kicks, the dark silver puppet never dodged, always facing the attacks head-on. Its originally thick arms were already dented from the impacts.
If there were other cultivators present, they would be incredibly shocked to see a flesh and blood cultivator using his own body and strength to damage a puppet made of metal, which is inherently hard and durable.
"Good opportunity!"
With a low shout, Ye Wuxie's gaze sharpened. Seizing the moment, he exerted force from his waist, took a large step forward, and his right fist, enveloped in a pale golden holy path battle aura, shone to its utmost, breaking through the void and blasting forward!
The third dark silver puppet's body was half-turned, its right arm blocking its mirror-like face, and its left hand clenched into a fist, dark silver light shining as it directly met the pale golden fist blasting towards it!
"Thud" "Boom"
The left fist of the dark silver puppet seemed to be crushed by an overwhelming force, completely deformed, and the right arm blocking its mirror-like face was also twisted and deformed. The tall figure was pushed back dozens of feet before stopping the force of the punch.
"Thud"
His feet planted firmly on the ground, Ye Wuxie's arms hung at his sides, his black hair draped over his shoulders, his eyes blazing like flames, he looked forward and muttered, "Exactly ten moves."
From the start of the battle with the third dark silver puppet to the final punch that defeated it, it was exactly ten moves.
"Hum"
The mirror-like face of the third dark silver puppet suddenly dimmed, its tall figure reversed, returning to its original standing position, and it returned to a state of stillness.
Ye Wuxie quietly watched the silver sun floating in the air, understanding that the activation and cessation of these three dark silver puppets were controlled by Ji Yuanyang.
"Overwhelming physical strength, astonishing combat power, Ye Wuxie, I underestimated you. Haha, good, I didn't expect that even a peak mid-stage Spirit Essence Realm dark silver puppet would not be your match in ten moves, with your peak mid-stage Heroic Essence Realm cultivation..."
After a few breaths of silence, Ji Yuanyang's voice, tinged with a hint of emotion, echoed in the room.
Defeating three dark silver puppets in a row, Ye Wuxie's performance, in Ji Yuanyang's eyes, could no longer be described as excellent, but rather... stunning!
"If you were born in my era..."
Unconsciously, Ji Yuanyang's tone seemed to become more intimate, with a faint sense of relief and deep regret.
Hearing Ji Yuanyang's praising words, Ye Wuxie slightly bowed his head, clasped his hands, and bowed towards the direction of the silver sun.
"Senior, you flatter me. I merely gave it my all. If you were to activate the fourth dark silver puppet, I would definitely not be a match. Thank you for your leniency, Senior."
Ye Wuxie understood that although he defeated the first three dark silver puppets, if Ji Yuanyang activated the fourth one, its cultivation would certainly reach the peak late-stage Spirit Essence Realm. At that time, even if he used the Nine Heavens Holy Lotus, he might not be able to win.
However, the strength of his physical body, which greatly enhanced his close combat abilities, made Ye Wuxie secretly pleased. He understood that the holy path battle aura had been quietly nourishing and enhancing his physical strength, and this battle had further confirmed it.
"Haha, each generation has its talented individuals. With young people like you in the Eastern Land, it is not in vain that I guarded the hundred major cities for so long. The youth are indeed the most captivating, hahaha..."
A hearty laugh echoed from the silver sun, and Ji Yuanyang's voice, filled with沧桑 (cang桑, meaning '沧桑' or 'weathered'), seemed to transform into a sense of pride and genuine relief at that moment.
"I, Ji Yuanyang, have waited for so many years, and finally, I have waited for a genius who can be compared to the sun! A peak mid-stage Heroic Essence Realm cultivator can defeat a peak mid-stage Spirit Essence Realm cultivator with just a mid-grade supreme technique. At such a young age, with such combat power, even in the Central Plains, you would be an exceptionally brilliant existence. Crossing a major realm to fight, winning with lesser strength, this person must possess secrets, but so what..."
Having experienced a lifetime of storms and dominating the Eastern Land, Ji Yuanyang's insight was astonishing. He naturally saw that apart from his innate talent, Ye Wuxie must have had unique experiences, accumulating a profound foundation and astonishing combat power, allowing him to fight across a major realm.
However, this would not make Ji Yuanyang have any ulterior motives towards Ye Wuxie; it would only make him even happier. 【←↘】
"Since you have defeated three dark silver puppets in a row, I will give you the reward I promised. Ye Wuxie, what do you think of the combat technique used by the second and third dark silver puppets?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Wuxie's eyes immediately lit up!
If there was one thing that left the deepest impression on Ye Wuxie during the continuous battles with the three dark silver puppets, it was the same combat technique used by the second and third dark silver puppets.
Silver waves sweeping in all directions, a silver moon shining in the void.
Moreover, Ye Wuxie always felt that this combat technique, when used by the dark silver puppets, was not fully unleashed, as if it was forced, awkward, and not smooth.
But even so, the power of this technique was still terrifying. If it weren't for the enhancement and improvement of the Struggle Holy Law and the Earthly Fiend Tiger General Fist, victory would not have been easy.
"Ha, you guessed it. That technique was forcibly stored in the dark silver puppets by me. The dark silver puppets themselves do not have the ability to store combat techniques, so even when used, the power is greatly reduced. Now, I will pass this technique to you. Actually, if you can pass the remaining two levels..."
Ji Yuanyang's voice paused, and a faint silver-white glow radiated from the silver sun floating in the air.
"Whoosh"
The silver-white glow shot out from the silver sun and instantly entered Ye Wuxie's forehead.
Ye Wuxie did not resist at all, closing his eyes and focusing his mind.
After a moment.
Ye Wuxie, who had his eyes closed, suddenly opened them, his pupils flashing with excitement and enthusiasm!
"Rising Moon at Sea! Using elemental energy to form an ocean, and from the ocean, a bright moon is born, the sky and sea merge, the sea supports the moon, and the moon reflects the sea. If I can master this technique, it will certainly enhance my combat power!"
Ji Yuanyang transmitted the essence of the Rising Moon at Sea technique into Ye Wuxie's divine soul space through his divine consciousness, allowing Ye Wuxie to comprehend and practice this combat technique.
As if sensing Ye Wuxie's excitement and enthusiasm, the silver sun in the air flickered, and Ji Yuanyang, with a smile, said, "What do you think of the Rising Moon at Sea technique, Ye Wuxie?"
"Senior, the power of this technique is unparalleled, and I am deeply grateful for your gift," Ye Wuxie replied respectfully.
This was not a lie. Over the past ten years, Ye Wuxie had been focusing on the Struggle Holy Law, and the only combat technique he had been exposed to was the Earthly Fiend Tiger General Fist. Even during the Hundred Cities War, the opponents he faced mostly used high-grade supreme techniques.
However, the power of the Rising Moon at Sea technique made Ye Wuxie feel that its grade must far surpass high-grade supreme techniques, though he was not sure exactly what grade it was.
"Haha... At your age, saying such words is not an exaggeration. But Ye Wuxie, if I tell you that the Rising Moon at Sea is just the first move of a combat technique set, what would you think?"
Ji Yuanyang's words immediately made Ye Wuxie's body tremble, his mind racing.
"No wonder! It makes sense now. I always felt that there should be more variations after the Rising Moon at Sea, as it is just the first move of a combat technique set..."
With this thought, Ye Wuxie's eyes narrowed, his desire reaching its peak. He instantly understood that Ji Yuanyang might have a purpose in telling him this, or in other words, it was a form of encouragement.
"Ye Wuxie, if you can pass the remaining two levels, all my inheritance will be yours, including the combat technique set of which the Rising Moon at Sea is the first move. Additionally, I can tell you that this combat technique set is called the Sun and Moon Martial Canon, and its grade is mid-grade yellow level."
"Sun and Moon Martial Canon... mid-grade yellow level..."
Muttering to himself, at this moment, Ye Wuxie clenched his fists tightly. Kong had told him that the world is vast, and above high-grade supreme techniques, there are yellow-level combat techniques. Even a low-grade yellow-level technique is ten times more powerful than a high-grade supreme technique!
And the Sun and Moon Martial Canon, with the Rising Moon at Sea as its first move, not only reaches the yellow level but is also mid-grade. How astonishing would the power of this combat technique set be?
"Therefore, Ye Wuxie, strive hard. Pass the remaining two levels, and the Sun and Moon Martial Canon will be yours. Additionally, I once said that to obtain all my inheritance, besides reaching the limits of combat power and divine soul strength, you must also have outstanding luck. Haha, if your luck is bad, others might compete with you for it."
Ji Yuanyang's words immediately made Ye Wuxie's heart race, not out of fear, but because he thought of those who had entered the Yuan Yang Hall before him.
"May I ask, Senior, where are those who entered the Yuan Yang Hall before me now?"
Voicing his question, Ye Wuxie spoke in a deep voice.
The silver sun flickered, and upon hearing Ye Wuxie's question, a brilliant silver light shot out from the silver sun, condensing in the air and forming a ten-foot-wide silver screen.
"Hum"
Ye Wuxie raised his eyes to the silver screen floating in the air. In the next moment, his originally calm face turned extremely grim, and a chill flashed in his eyes!
