We're practicing all martial arts, so why did you switch to easy mode?

The moment Shen Wan saw the disc, he felt a sharp pain in his neck, and his whole body seemed to spin in an instant. Then he saw a corpse below, blood gushing out like a pillar. Immediately afterward, darkness rapidly filled his vision.
The headless corpse was dressed exactly like him!
Boom boom boom!
Shen Wan's head fell to the ground with a crisp sound, and his body fell down as well, facing his head in mid-air. His eyes were wide open, filled with a look of unrepentant death.

He hadn't expected that Su Chen would act so suddenly, without any regard for Huang Jinsha's strength or his background.

He never expected that Su Chen was so strong that he killed him in less than a single exchange, leaving him no chance to resist.

After dealing with Shen Wan, Su Chen didn't even glance at the uninvited guests who had come from afar. Instead, he leaped up, transformed into a streak of rainbow light, and quickly left the yellow sand desert.

"Where to go!"

Not long after takeoff, Su Chen heard a loud shout behind him, and then he felt a powerful energy rapidly approaching him.

It was Huang Shamen's men who discovered his departure and launched an attack in time to try to stop him.

Su Chen didn't take this move seriously. He smiled faintly, bent his palm, and then punched out. While flying, he used the momentum to increase his speed and widen the distance again.

"Look quickly, that's Huang Qin from Huangshamen. Who is the person he's chasing?"

"Could he be the murderer who killed the disciples of the three major sects of Huangsha Sect a few days ago? But he looks rather young."

"It's Huang Qin from Huangsha Sect! He's one of the top three ruthless disciples among the seven true disciples. I heard he's been in seclusion for almost ten years. I didn't expect him to come out. I wonder what level his strength has reached. I remember he was already at the minor completion stage of supernatural powers ten years ago. I didn't expect Huangsha Sect to send him out!"

"That kid's in trouble. Huang Qin is not someone to be trifled with. Now that he's been targeted, he probably can't escape. But he's got guts. Facing Huang Qin's pursuit, he still dares to fight back. It's a bit like an ant trying to shake a tree."

"Yes, Huang Qin cultivates a great divine power, which seems to be called the Earth Dragon Ascension Technique. This great divine power is renowned even in the martial arts world. It is said that if one cultivates this divine power to its extreme, one's own power can be compared to the power of the sky and the power of the sea. Standing on the ground, one is invincible and receives the assistance of the power of the earth, making it extremely terrifying. More than ten years have passed, and he should have cultivated this divine power to perfection, otherwise he would not have come out of seclusion."

"Let's hurry over there and see, maybe there'll be a good show to watch."

"..."

After flying for over a hundred miles, Su Chen gradually slowed down.

This immediately caught Huang Qin's attention. He had been following behind Su Chen the whole time, and now that he saw Su Chen slowing down, he was curious, but he couldn't help but speed up and catch up with Su Chen.

He scrutinized Su Chen, his eyes revealing a look of scrutiny and surprise. The chase just now had shown him that Su Chen was no ordinary person. Although he hadn't used his full strength, the other party seemed to be handling it with ease. In a real contest, he might not be able to catch up with him.

"This is a great place!"

Su Chen ignored Huang Qin's gaze, instead looking around and clicking his tongue in approval.

“That’s right, this is indeed a good place for you to be executed.” Hearing Su Chen’s words, Huang Qin was not angry, but nodded seriously.

Su Chen wanted to kill him, but he also wanted to capture Su Chen and bring him back to receive his orders.

Thinking of this, Huang Qin's expression turned serious. He stared at Su Chen and said, "You are so young yet you have such skills. You should have kept a low profile and waited for the right opportunity to make a name for yourself. Instead, you are so ruthless and killed three true disciples of my three major sects. If you didn't have a powerful family background, I'm afraid you wouldn't have the guts. Tell me your background, and maybe I can spare your life!"

"Are all the true disciples of your three major sects so full of nonsense, with a thousand concerns and ten thousand worries?" Su Chen retorted.

Even through the air, Huang Qin could feel the sarcasm in the other person's words. His face darkened: "What did you say!"

"Just like that Huang Yunfei before, you are the same. If you want to make a move, then make a move. Why bother to find out my background? If you are so afraid, then why bother practicing martial arts? Martial artists are born between heaven and earth. What does it matter what kind of powerful background they have? Anyone who goes against my way and dares to provoke me will be killed without mercy!"

However, since you're so eager to know my background, I might as well tell you. I am a disciple of the Holy Origin Sect. If you have the ability, then make your move. I want to see if you have the strength to face the Holy Origin Sect's overwhelming wrath.

Su Chen didn't take action; instead, he fabricated a background story.

Upon hearing this, Huang Qin, who was already harboring concerns, suddenly changed his expression. The name of the Holy Yuan Sect truly intimidated him.

This is a top-tier power in Shengyuan City, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it ranks first. It is backed by the entire royal family of the Shengyuan Kingdom, so you can imagine how deep its foundation is.

Although the Huangsha Sect is a powerful force in the Huangsha Desert, they still have to be half a head shorter than the Shengyuan Sect.

Now that he knows Su Chen is a disciple of the Holy Origin Sect, and judging from his tone, he seems to be a very important disciple, Huang Qin, who was full of morale just now, suddenly became hesitant and dared not make a move against Su Chen.

After all, no one knows whether Su Chen has reported this matter to the Holy Origin Sect. If he kills Su Chen, the experts of the Holy Origin Sect will come knocking on their door. In order to appease the Holy Origin Sect's anger, the Yellow Sand Sect might hand him over directly to the Holy Origin Sect. At that time, even if he has extraordinary abilities, it will be useless, and he can only be slaughtered by the Holy Origin Sect.

“I am somewhat acquainted with Yuan Ye of the Holy Origin Sect, and I have visited the Holy Origin Sect several times by chance. I am fairly familiar with the Holy Origin Sect. You are so young to have become a disciple of the Holy Origin Sect. May I ask what your Daoist name is in the Holy Origin Sect? If we are destined to meet in the future, I will certainly visit you in the Holy Origin Sect!”

As Huang Qin was pondering, a charming voice, like the sound of a clear spring, came from the sky. The newcomer was wearing a long purple dress, and the golden sunlight shone on her skin, emitting a dazzling light, especially on her low-cut dress, which almost blinded others.

"Who are you?" Upon hearing the voice, Su Chen looked at the person who had come, vaguely guessing their identity.

As expected, the woman in purple stopped smiling, her expression turning cold. She said in silence, "You really have a short memory. You just killed the manager of my Golden Sands, and you've already forgotten everything. I am Yin Luo, the person in charge of Golden Sands here. How could I let you get away with killing someone from Golden Sands? I have come here specifically to demand an explanation from you."

"So it's Manager Yin from Golden Sands. Manager Yin is quite good-looking, but why are your words so absurd? I bid farewell to Manager Shen long ago, how could I have killed him? How could Manager Yin slander someone's innocence without reason!" Su Chen chuckled and denied it outright.

Upon hearing this, Feng Mei frowned with a cold glint in her eyes, then said coldly, "In terms of the ability to lie through one's teeth, among all the people I have ever met, you are undoubtedly the number one." "Thank you for the compliment!" Su Chen said seriously, as if Yin Luo was genuinely praising him.

Huang Qin, who was standing to the side, understood the whole story from their conversation, and his surprise grew as they talked.

Unexpectedly, Su Chen even took the opportunity to kill the people of Golden Sand. Yin Luo of Golden Sand has a very mysterious background, and even the three major sects dare not provoke him easily. It has to be said that Su Chen is really bold, which makes him more and more hesitant. He suspects that Su Chen may have some powerful background and doesn't know whether he should take action.

Suddenly, Yin Luo said to Huang Qin, "Young Master Huang, what this person just said was just to fool you. According to our Golden Sands investigation, this person is not a disciple of the so-called Holy Origin Sect at all. If I am not mistaken, he is just a rogue cultivator. The basis for this judgment is that he does not even have a decent supernatural ability. If he were really a person of a great power, how could he be so down and out?"

"Is that really true?" Huang Qin's eyes lit up, but he still looked skeptical. He asked back, wanting to get a positive answer from the other party.

Yin Luo nodded and said, "Of course, if Young Master Huang is worried, I am willing to join forces with you to capture this person!"

Although she was certain that Su Chen didn't have a powerful background, she didn't dare to be careless. After all, Su Chen had killed several martial artists with supernatural abilities, so his strength was not to be underestimated. To prevent any mistakes, she planned to join forces with Huang Qin. This would reassure Huang Qin so that he wouldn't have to worry about Su Chen's identity, and she also wanted to use Su Chen to see just how strong Huang Qin had become.

However, after receiving Yin Luo's affirmation, Huang Qin shook his head and smiled, regaining his composure: "Miss Yin Luo is too kind. Dealing with him doesn't require your special effort. Please watch as I capture him within three moves!"

Huang Qin wasn't stupid; he didn't believe Yin Luo's one-sided story. So, he didn't plan to kill Su Chen, but instead intended to capture Su Chen and hand him over to the sect. That way, even if the higher-ups blamed him, he wouldn't have to take responsibility.

Su Chen paid no attention to their thoughts. After Huang Qin finished speaking, he sighed and then took the initiative to make a move, appearing even more impatient than Huang Qin.

Of course he couldn't wait. Ever since he obtained the Soul Searching Technique, he had been eager to find the Pure Yuan Pill to cultivate it to its limit. The two people in front of him, one was the manager of Golden Sand, and the other was a true disciple of the Yellow Sand Sect. Weren't they just perfect money-bringers?

Therefore, Su Chen took the initiative and seized the opportunity when only Huang Qin was making a move to quickly capture him. Then he grabbed Yin Luo. However, while making his move, he was also on guard against Yin Luo interfering.

Yin Luo had no intention of making a move. Upon seeing Huang Qin attack, he immediately retreated, his gaze shifting between the two men before he used his Yuan Power to protect himself.

boom!
The two quickly clashed, their fierce movements creating a powerful impact. In mid-air, their ghostly figures intertwined, each exchange unleashing tremendous force that swept across the battlefield like surging waves.

"What a strong body!"

The brief exchange startled Su Chen slightly. He had chosen to fight with his bare hands to finish the battle quickly, but his opponent not only did not dodge, but also charged forward, fighting him purely with his physical body.

After exchanging blows, Su Chen directly experienced the power of Huang Qin's physical body, which was in no way inferior to his own.

He knew that the other party must have cultivated a supernatural power, because the power of supernatural power surged in the other party's moves.

"Then let's see whose physical body is stronger!"

This was the first time Su Chen had ever seen a martial artist who could rival him in physical strength, and his fighting spirit was immediately ignited.

He seemed to transform into a primordial beast brimming with boundless power, engaging Huang Qin in a brutal, hand-to-hand combat.

Bang bang bang!
In a short while, the entire sky was filled with their chaotic figures, and a series of thunderous impacts resounded, like a string of musical notes, echoing in Yin Luo's ears.

The trembling of her eardrums could not conceal the solemnity in Yin Luo's eyes.

"Huang Qin truly lives up to his reputation as a true disciple of the Huangsha Sect, a prodigy of heaven. In addition to cultivating the Earth Dragon Ascension Technique, he has also cultivated a body-refining divine ability. Furthermore, he has combined the Earth Dragon Ascension Technique with this body-refining divine ability, using the power of the earth to temper his physical body. As long as the power of the earth continues, he will have inexhaustible energy to support him. Moreover, judging from his strength, he seems to have cultivated this divine ability to a very high level, no weaker than a martial artist who has mastered a divine ability."

On the other hand, while that man was strong, he wasn't as powerful as Huang Qin. I wondered how long he could last, but what surprised me was his incredibly robust physical body; he had managed to fight Huang Qin for so long. Could it be that he had also cultivated a body-refining technique? But why couldn't I sense any divine power? Or had he cultivated his physical body to a level comparable to a divine power purely through his own strength? If so, then… then this person was even more powerful than Huang Qin!”

Having discovered something, Yin Luo's expression suddenly became somewhat astonished.

She turned her gaze away from Huang Qin and instead stared intently at Su Chen, observing his every move.

It seemed they wanted to see clearly whether Su Chen's physical body was as they thought, and whether he had cultivated any supernatural powers.

As she looked, Yin Luo's eyebrows furrowed slightly, because after a long time, she still couldn't figure it out.

"Strange, what kind of martial arts does this person practice? I can't see through it at all!"

Yin Luo was extremely curious, as she could not discern not only the supernatural abilities Su Chen cultivated, but also the Yuan Power Su Chen used.

boom!
Just then, a piercing metallic scraping sound suddenly rang out across the sky, instantly attracting Yin Luo's attention.

Yin Luo looked up and her pupils contracted immediately as she saw Huang Qin, who had been sent flying by Su Chen's punch.

Huang Qin's body spun several times in the air before collapsing as if it had lost its support, crashing heavily into the desert below and kicking up a cloud of dust.

"This..." Upon seeing this, Yin Luo's fiery red lips parted wide, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Su Chen actually knocked Huang Qin down with a single punch using only his physical strength! (End of Chapter)
