At this moment, Li Bai, who was the most eye-catching person on the field, did not stop because the four drunken monks hesitated.
His eyes were filled with disdain and slight disappointment as he sheathed his longsword.
"You are not worthy to die by this sword!"
Before he finished speaking, his figure had already risen into the air and was suspended in the sky.
A carefree laugh echoed in all directions, reaching everyone's ears—
"Old Zhang, watch carefully!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned and looked bewildered.
The four monks, who were drinking heavily, were even more surprised and suspicious, and their vigilance grew even stronger.
If they had known more about Li Bai's martial arts skills than they did, they would not have stood idly by even if they were no match for him.
However, things are unpredictable.
Out of caution, they could only wait and see, hoping that Li Bai would make the first move.
The unknown is what is most frightening!
Only Zhang Sanfeng and He Zudao blushed slightly upon hearing this.
Knowing that the other party had noticed their conversation, she looked slightly embarrassed.
The two looked up, their gazes fixed on Li Taibai.
They understood that this was intentional guidance from the other party.
Therefore, his eyes were wide open, afraid of missing even the slightest detail.
They didn't keep everyone waiting for long.
Standing with his hands behind his back, seemingly floating on air, Li Bai's voice boomed like a bell as he recited a long, clear poem—
"The sword of the great river descends from the heavens!"
In an instant, thunderclouds surged in the sky!
A suffocating pressure suddenly descended, enveloping the entire Wudang Mountain!
The four drunken monks were the first to be hit, and their faces suddenly turned pale.
Then, to everyone's astonishment—
From the depths of the dark clouds, a cold light suddenly appeared, and a long sword exuding a chilling killing intent materialized out of thin air!
Wherever the sword's edge points, a chilling aura pierces to the bone!
Just a glance was enough to send chills down one's spine, chill one's limbs to the bone, and sting one's eyes with unbearable pain!
The sword light, like a rainbow, suddenly disappeared into the clouds!
The threat is already looming over the heads of the four drunken monks!
The shadow of death looms!
In the blink of an eye!
The four drunken monks felt a chill run down their spines, and were drenched in cold sweat!
In his shock, he didn't have time to think it through.
He immediately channeled all his strength to desperately block the attack!
"It is... a literary mind that embodies the Way, talent that condenses into a sharp edge, poetry completed and sword drawn! Words spoken become law!!!"
Zhang Sanfeng's pupils trembled violently.
The shock had not yet faded from the aged face, and now it was tinged with even more astonishment.
Several strands of his white beard were torn off.
Still completely unaware!
Such astonishing skills
It is truly unprecedented and unparalleled!
038 - The Sacred Power of Confucianism and Taoism! The Sword Unveils the Secrets of Heaven! Zhang Sanfeng Awakens to the Tao!
He Zudao stared in astonishment upon hearing this.
The integration of literature and martial arts is still understandable.
This art of combining poetry and swordsmanship,
Isn't this divine intervention?!
Zhang Sanfeng seemed to have some kind of understanding.
The pinnacle of terrestrial immortals
To obtain the true essence of Tai Chi
At this moment, guided by the sword intent,
The threshold between heaven and man is actually loosening!
The key to breaking through to the Celestial Realm lies in comprehending the Dao that is uniquely your own!
The three thousand great paths each have their own strengths.
Only by comprehending one's own unique path can one break free from the shackles of being a terrestrial immortal, Jin Ren!
But one thing always puzzled him.
Li Bai's Daoism, at first glance, appears to be Confucianism and Daoism, but upon closer examination, it contains a unique mystery.
It even contains a hint of domineering aura!
It's as if he's wandering between Confucianism and Taoism, and hegemony.
It is still difficult to determine which category it belongs to.
If I had to summarize—
The title "tyrannical scholar" might be quite fitting.
Just as the two men were displaying different expressions.
On the other side of the battle.
The four, including the Drunken Monk, sensed that death was imminent.
He immediately exerted all his strength and used all his life's skills!
"Ten suns burn the sky!"
"Buddha's Palm! Shifting Stars and Changing Constellations!"
"Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill!"
"The Golden Body of an Arhat!!"
Ten dazzling golden lights soared into the sky.
Like the blazing sun overhead,
The surrounding temperature suddenly soared!
The dark clouds gathered into a giant, sky-covering hand.
Each finger needs a person to encircle it!
The most striking figures are Tianchi Eccentric and Xuancheng.
Although they respectively used the Golden Bell Shield and the Vajra Indestructible Technique,
However, its entire body also shone with dazzling golden light.
It looks like a statue cast in gold!
Shockingly,
The ancient sword that hung above the four of them
It seemed as if it possessed a spiritual connection, managing to evade the brunt of the ten-day onslaught.
It pierced through the illusory palm print with unstoppable force!
Then, its power remained undiminished, and it went straight for the four of them!
The deafening roar shook Wudang Mountain.
A vast and mighty force surged in the void.
Centered around these four individuals, they swept across all directions.
The specially designed training ground was instantly filled with flying stones.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye!
As the smoke cleared, the onlookers regained their footing and all turned their gazes toward the scene.
A massive crater, ten feet in diameter, suddenly appeared before them. The four drunken monks sat slumped within it, their faces deathly pale, their clothes torn and stained with blood.
With just one glance, everyone gasped, overwhelmed with shock.
It's astonishing that four top experts at the Land Immortal Realm have been utterly defeated!
This result far exceeded everyone's expectations!
Everyone was filled with awe at Li Taibai's terrifying strength at the Celestial Realm.
Some martial artists even murmured to themselves in a daze—is this really the way of martial arts? It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that a god has descended to earth!
However, Zhang Sanfeng was the only one who stood out from the crowd.
He closed his eyes and concentrated, carefully comprehending the lingering effect of Li Bai's strike. As if the clouds had parted to reveal the sun, all the doubts he had had in his cultivation became clear.
He calmed his mind and fell into deep thought.
'His doctrine is that of a domineering Confucian scholar; what then is my doctrine?'
A single thought arises, and thoughts surge forth.
It felt like an hour had passed, yet also like only a moment.
As the events of his first half of life flashed through his mind, the confusion in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by determination.
"The Tao gives birth to One, One gives birth to Two, Two gives birth to Three, Three gives birth to all things. All things carry Yin and embrace Yang, and through the interaction of these two forces, they achieve harmony. Thus, there is Taiji!"
As he whispered, Zhang Sanfeng's eyes grew even brighter.
Could there actually be three powerful figures surpassing Li Bai?!
Even if it's just speculation!
But those who frequent the underworld know an ironclad rule—
Without overwhelming strength, one simply cannot maintain control over those in high positions!
Even if you manage to reach the top by chance, you'll be pulled down in the blink of an eye!
Even a master as strong as Li Bai.
Which one of them isn't proud and arrogant?
If you don't have real skills.
How could we tolerate mediocre people riding on our heads?
Such a terrifying organization as the Azure Dragon Society!
The internal hierarchy must be extremely strict!
Therefore, it can be inferred that there are six more people who can be compared to Li Bai!
The more I think about it, the more horrifying it becomes!
The more I think about it, the more horrifying it becomes!
'Such comprehension... alas, it truly makes one feel ashamed of one's own abilities!'
