Kuo Yi was able to exchange blows with Li Yuan of the 9th layer of the "Big Martial Scripture" when he was only at the 6th layer, and at that time, he already knew that his body was superior to ordinary people, it is very likely that the bamboo shoot liquid he drank in that mysterious bamboo forest changed his physique.
That bamboo forest is a place where even the likes of Lin Daiyu would feel uneasy, it's definitely not an ordinary place. Every single blade of grass and tree inside has been spiritualized, and can't be measured by common logic.
Now Guo Yi has reached the realm of Wu Sheng, breaking through the mortal body, and his physical strength has also taken a leap forward, far surpassing that of an ordinary mid-level Wu Sheng.
His palms cracked open, his entire body's bones were like they were shattering, yet he gritted his teeth and persisted: "I won't lose."
"You have already lost."
Guo Yiyi pressed his palm print on his chest, and instantly sent Jiemi Tian flying out, unable to get up again.
"The four great geniuses are nothing more than this."
Guo Ye is not a person who would take advantage of someone in distress. After Li Xiaoyan's defeat and disappearance, he wanted to leave, but someone didn't want him to go.
"Oh! Is that so? I'd like to experience your superior wisdom, you actually don't put the four of us geniuses in your eyes."
Not far from the outer gate of Wan Jingling Palace, a white-clad man stood tall on a pavilion, with three one-foot-long short swords strapped to his back. His face looked somewhat sickly, with a prominent Adam's apple, and his voice was slightly hoarse, as if his throat had been slit.
The man in white clothes emitted a strong sense of combat as soon as he appeared, completely at odds with his sickly temperament, like a fierce beast escaping from its cage.
Kuo Yi was astonished to find that the air around him had changed, as if it were all flowing towards the man in white, as if he had become the center of the entire world.
"Master, this is a master who is at least twice as powerful as the Silent Heaven, even if he hasn't entered the Martial Rankings yet, he has the strength to rival those on the Martial Rankings."
Guo Ye was on his guard and asked: "How should I address you?"
"Swallows are scarce." The sickly man's determination grew stronger.
The people surrounding him, after hearing the sickly man report his name, began to discuss among themselves: "It's actually him, the first of the four great geniuses. Isn't he always confined within the Wind Spirit Palace?"
"It's said that he was naturally talented, and three years ago he could have already ascended to the 'Martial Arts Rankings', but unfortunately he was secretly plotted against by a master, destroying his cultivation door and cutting off his path to immortality. Later on, however, he relied on his great willpower to rebuild his cultivation door and reached the realm of a high-level Martial Saint."
"Reshaped the Immortal Gate, still need to continue on the Immortal Path, heard that only the City Master has the ability in the entire Sealed City, he wants to make a bet, follow the City Master's will, kill Guo Yao, and contend for the City Master's son's position."
"It's not necessarily so, I've heard that Yan Que has a deep grudge against the city master, and he may have come here to kill the city master's illegitimate son."
……
Hua Er Lou said: "Yan Que is the elder brother of Yan Hong Lei, three years ago he was known as the number one genius in You Yin City, unfortunately he was secretly attacked by a mysterious person and his cultivation path was cut off. He once knelt outside the city lord's mansion for three days and three nights, wanting to ask the city lord to help him continue his cultivation path, but unfortunately the city lord did not agree."
"What you mean is......" Guo Yi looked at Yan Que again and suddenly felt that this person was quite dangerous, a man who would stop at nothing for great power.
Hua Er Lou continued: "The city master cut off his hope, he might come to kill the city master's illegitimate son, even if you're just a fake one."
Guo Jie was fearless and said: "Who will behead whom is still uncertain."
Yan Que opened the door to immortality, able to mobilize a wisp of spiritual energy for his own use. His white robes fluttered like a crane as he slid down from the loft, looked at Guo Yi, and then gazed at the Sealing Order on Guo Yi's chest: "Indeed, it is the third Sealing Order, but I dare to say that the City Master would never have an illegitimate child."
Guo Yidao said: "I've never said that I have a relationship with the master of Youjin City, it's just what they think."
"Then I can kill you with more peace of mind."
Yan Que suddenly made a move on Guo Yi, he didn't use the three short swords on his back, just swung out one claw and completely locked down Guo Yi.
The swallow's claw was only waved out, but in Guo Yi's eyes, there were countless claw shadows that swept across the sky, as if to tear him apart.
Guo Yi stretched out his palm and quickly met the claw shadow, without retreating in the slightest. Every collision was like an iron claw scraping across his palm.
"Explode!"
Guo Yi saw the true claw, and with one punch, the countless claw shadows disappeared. Yan Que's five fingers were hit by Guo Yi's fist, causing immense pain, almost breaking them off.
"His physical strength is incredibly fierce, no wonder he was defeated so miserably by Jiemo Tian. Yan Que began to take his opponent seriously and decided to use the power of the Xianmen."
"Kwok Yat let out a loud roar: 'You take one of my punches too!'"
Kuo Yiwu's five fingers clenched tightly, mobilizing the strength of his entire body. With one foot, he crushed the stone slab on the ground and threw a punch at Yan Que. This punch was incredibly powerful, with an air shadow of a fist appearing in mid-air, as if it could shatter a great mountain with a single blow.
Looking at Yan Que, there was no sign of illness on his body. He stretched out his hand and took out a short sword. The door to immortality opened wide, and a thread of spiritual energy transmitted onto the blade of the sword. An ordinary knife suddenly turned into a divine weapon, capable of cutting through even iron blocks, let alone human fists.
Hua Er Lou saw Guo Yi unexpectedly use his fist to touch the blade of Yan Que's sword, and was suddenly frightened, shouting: "Boss, it's too reckless, let's retreat."
Hua Pangzi was very ungrateful and turned around to run away. In just a few steps, he disappeared into the crowd.
"You think your fists are made of iron, and you actually want to break my spiritual sword." Yan Que sprang up, his sword slashing towards Guo Yao.
Guo Yel sneered, "You have a sword, I also have a sword. Your sword is held in your hand, but mine is hidden in my fingers. Let's see who cuts whom."
"Look at me, one finger breaks the sword."
Kuang Ye also leaped into the air, heading towards Yan Que. With a flick of his wrist, he transformed his fist into a finger, pointing at the short sword that shone with spiritual light. The tip of his finger was calm and unremarkable, yet it seemed confident and composed.
Someone was shocked by Guo Yi: "This guy must be crazy, even the top masters of Wu Bang would not dare to be so arrogant as to use one finger to block Yan Que's sword, this is seeking death!"
"This guy is too fierce, I feel like it's not two masters dueling, but two kids playing with each other, how much power can one finger have?"
Yan Que looked at Guo Yao's expression, which was also filled with disdain and ridicule. "Truly ignorant."
One finger, one sword collided together, and suddenly a shattering sound that pierced the eardrum was emitted. People only saw a golden light bursting out from Guo Yao's fingertips, like a fierce sun in the sky, making it impossible for people to see anything.
"Boom!"
The short sword in Yan's hand shattered instantly, and before he could take out a second short sword, the fragments of the first short sword pierced him, leaving countless terrifying wounds, with blood staining his white clothes red.
When everyone's vision recovered and looked back at the battlefield, they found that Guo Yi was pointing at Yan Que's brow, and Yan Que's hands were holding a short sword inserted into Guo Yi's abdomen. The two of them seemed to have petrified, motionless, as if they had both died.
"Could it be that the two of them will die together?"
No one knew what had just happened in that instant, Guo Yi had already gained the upper hand, yet he was still stabbed by two swords from Yan Que, almost piercing his body through.
"Two geniuses fallen just like that?"
At this time, almost everyone has placed Guo Yi in the category of genius. Two of the four geniuses who defeated Youjin City were killed by him, and even Yan Que, who was one realm higher than him, died at his hands. Such a person can only be described as a genius, and cannot be described with any other words.
It's a pity that such a brilliant talent has just emerged and immediately withered, without even asking for the world, he will be buried in the yellow earth. This may be a joke from God to him.
People began to feel sorry for Guo Yi, thinking that it was a pity for him to die together with someone whose path to immortality had been cut off, and if he didn't die, he would definitely leave his mark on the "Martial Arts Ranking".
Someone wanted to go and collect the bodies of the two geniuses, but before they could get close, they were repelled by an invisible force. The two short swords that had pierced Guo Yao's abdomen suddenly melted like molten iron, and two misty gates opened from the wound, allowing countless spiritual energies to pour in wildly, as if they had found a vent for their release.
Two gates, each the size of a fist, are located below the Dan Tian. One emits golden light and the other emits crimson red light, like two small suns intertwined, then start rotating to form a mysterious Taiji pattern.
"Some people exclaimed: 'He actually opened the door of cultivation, reviving the dead.'"
"The Gate of Cultivation can only have one path, why does he have two? I've never heard of a cultivator having two Gates of Cultivation."
"This is a heaven-defying move, you see that behind those two cultivation gates, two paths of cultivation have actually opened up."
Sure, here is the translation:
As expected, behind the two golden and crimson gates of the Immortal Cultivation Path, a misty aura dispersed, revealing two broad paths leading to infinity. Countless shimmering threads crisscrossed the paths, and in the distance, one could vaguely see a palace situated at the intersection of the two paths, with half of it emitting golden light and the other half radiating crimson light.
The strange phenomenon shook the city of Yu Jing, and more people rushed to this place. The strong elders of the four major families and the three major spiritual palaces were also startled, and they all came rushing over, but they didn't see Guo Yi.
Because when they arrived, a woman in black clothes with a black veil took Guo Yao away first. The woman in black drove a white bone-built ghost car, rose into the air, and the ghost fire on the ghost car was overwhelming, disappearing at the northern horizon. Even a master who chased north for three thousand miles did not see the shadow of the white bone ghost car, and could only return reluctantly.
At that time, the Wan Jing Ling Palace was the closest, an elder saw a strange phenomenon in Guo Yao's body, and hurried back to the palace to flip through ancient books. Finally, he found relevant records from the ancient printing edition, but unfortunately, there were only a few words, with only one complete word: "Two Instrumental Immortal Body..."
On this day, the city of Youjin was once again in an uproar. Guo Ye and Yan Que had a showdown outside the Wan Jingling Palace, resulting in one death and one disappearance. The phrase "One Body Two Immortal Gates" was also circulating within the city, becoming increasingly bizarre with each retelling. Some people even claimed that the number one genius of Youjin City had been born.
However, there are still people who claim to want to kill Guo Yicai, and four of the five top martial artists in the "Wu Bang" have expressed their intention to challenge him, all wanting to step on his halo to rise to prominence.
Now everyone sees Guo Yi's potential, and it is likely that he will become a powerful master in the Xianxia world after thousands of years. If he can be defeated or even killed before he grows up, it will certainly make him wither away and eliminate a potential threat.
Moreover, the first city master's messenger once again conveyed the city master's message, declaring "Everything before was just rumors, Guo Yao and the city master have no relation whatsoever. Whoever among the younger generation can kill him will become the next generation's Youjin City Master, but it is absolutely not allowed for the older generation to take action, otherwise the city master will personally take action to kill them."
As soon as this was said, several top masters of the "Martial Arts Leaderboard" were no longer restrained and sought out Guo Yi's whereabouts, making the entire Sealed City even more chaotic.
"Some people received news that Guo Yue appeared in the distant Changguo country, nine hundred thousand miles north of Youyin City. At this time, the four great masters of the Wu Bang had already driven their flying war chariots and were rushing there without stopping, fearing they would arrive at Changguo country tonight."
"It's not just the secluded city, even the ancient immortal city 300 million miles away and the Wind City 700 million miles away have strong masters from the 'Martial Board' rushing to Changguo Country. This time, there will be more than ten strong masters from the 'Martial Board', all of whom are ruthless characters who want to take Guo Yishen's life."
"How did Guo Yan end up in Changguo State, 90,000 miles away?"
"Who knows, but it can be foreseen that a shocking and bloody battle will surely take place nine thousand miles away tonight. I heard that several top masters of the 'Martial Arts Ranking' have even brought several spiritual artifacts with them, hoping that the Long Valley Nation won't be destroyed in one battle."
