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

"Fight or fight!"

Lu Hai, without hesitation, unleashed his Yuan Power to confront Wu Mo, his arrogance and fury palpable.

But before they could make a move, they were stopped.

"Both of you are sect elders, why make such a fuss over a disciple? Regardless of whether Su Chen is a member of the Heavenly Demons or not, it's pointless to say anything now. Su Chen is trapped in the Demon Cave, and he has probably already been killed by the demons or Heavenly Demons."

An elder from the Xuan Yin Sect spoke up, stopping the two impulsive individuals.

Immediately, the others stepped forward to persuade the two.

They wouldn't care about the two fighting in private, but what's more important right now isn't Su Chen, but the news of the Heavenly Demon's birth.

If this is true, it would be enough to cause a sensation throughout the entire world.

After the Heavenly Demon is born, driven by its hatred for the human race, it will surely come to attack the Ten Directions World.

Their most urgent task should be to report this matter to their respective sects and discuss how to fight against the Heavenly Demon, rather than engaging in internal strife.

Hearing this, Wu Mo snorted coldly: "Lu Hai, this time, for the sake of everyone, I will consider the overall situation and not fight with you. But you had better know your place. Don't think that just because you have the Ziyang Sect backing you up, you can be unreasonable in front of us!"

"Wu Mo, after all these years, you're still as sharp-tongued as ever. I'll say it again: make Feng Bai explain what happened when he left, whether he stopped Su Chen from leaving or not. If this matter isn't clarified today, then nothing else matters!"

Lu Hai showed no sign of compromise, nor was he going to compromise.

After learning about Su Chen's performance in the Demon Cave from Yun Xi, he immediately realized Su Chen's potential.

Su Chen has only been a member of the Ziyang Sect for a short time!
All in all, it's less than six months.

But his strength improved so quickly.

According to his memory, when Su Chen entered the Ziyang Sect, he was only at the minor level of supernatural powers. In less than two months, Su Chen broke through to the major level of supernatural powers and gained the opportunity to participate in the demon hunt. After entering the demon hunt, he stepped into the perfect level of supernatural powers in one fell swoop. Even He Qiu was no match for him and was killed by him.

Such astonishing talent is unmatched not only within the entire Ziyang Sect, but also among the most outstanding talents throughout the history of the Ten Directions World.

That's why he was so anxious when he learned that Su Chen was trapped in the Demon Cave.

With such talent, coupled with the resources and nurturing provided by the sect, it's only a matter of time before Su Chen overcomes the Five Signs of Decay.

At his current age, is the so-called time issue still an issue?

It probably won't be long before Su Chen is able to overcome the Five Signs of Decay of Heaven and Man, thus breaking through to the Martial Immortal realm.

At that time, the Ziyang Sect will gain another powerful member!
But this wasn't what he valued most; rather, it was Su Chen's potential after breaking through to the Martial Immortal Realm.

How great will the achievements of such a young martial arts master be in the future?
He cannot be estimated.

But at least, if Su Chen can maintain this momentum of rapid progress, the Martial Immortal Realm will definitely not be his end.

How could he possibly give up on such a prodigy?

Not only should we not give up, but we must do everything we can to rescue them.

After all, Su Chen's feelings for the Ziyang Sect were not deep. After this incident, he would definitely become devoted to the Ziyang Sect.

He will not stand idly by if the Ziyang Sect faces difficulties in the future.

Hearing Lu Hai's forceful words, Wu Mo shook his head slightly, chuckled, then suddenly his smile vanished, his face darkened, and he said coldly, "You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Mo waved his hand and gently clenched his fist, gathering all the surrounding Yuan energy into his small palm. In an instant, a huge Yuan energy mountain was formed, reaching a height of a hundred feet. The moment it was formed, it covered the sky and the moon, pressing down on Lu Hai.

"Move the mountain!"

This is Wu Mo's supreme divine power: moving mountains.

It can move not only real mountains, but also invisible mountains.

The mountains are filled with powerful arrays of supernatural abilities, which are terrifying in both speed and power.

Lu Hai dared not be careless. He quickly lifted his hands up, and boundless Yuan Power surged from his body. The Yuan Power gushed out like a flood, transforming into a vast ocean behind him, stretching for tens of thousands of meters. In the silence, one could hear the ebb and flow of the tides and the raging waves.

"Reclaiming land from the sea!"

Lu Hai let out a soft shout and, facing Wu Mo's Mountain-Moving Divine Power, directly unleashed the Sea-Filling Divine Power. Similar to the Mountain-Moving Divine Power, the so-called Sea-Filling Divine Power was also composed of Yuan Power and contained many divine powers, which were combined to form a divine power array.

The sudden attack by the two caught everyone around off guard. It was too late to stop them, so they could only protect their own sect's disciples and retreat repeatedly. In the blink of an eye, they had retreated to a distance of tens of thousands of meters, watching from afar.

Both Wu Mo and Lu Hai are formidable warriors, having survived at least three tribulations. When warriors of such strength clash, their power is devastating. A slight misstep could not only affect their own juniors but also injure them.

"Then let me see whether my ocean fills your ocean, or your ocean drowns my ocean!"

Seeing this, Wu Mo snorted softly, and then his palm slid down. As it slid down, the hundred-zhang mountain tore through the air with a world-destroying momentum. All sorts of pressure came down, and the darkness that filled the sky descended like a flood of ferocious beasts, instantly covering all directions.

Giant waves surged and rose from the ground, unleashing countless water dragons that roared skyward, their sounds like thunder echoing through the heavens and shaking the universe. Under this thunderous roar, the sea level rose continuously until, in the end, it seemed as if thousands of meters were submerged in the ocean. The people could no longer see the scene ahead, only the mountains and sea colliding and roaring.

Under such a brutal collision, the world was quickly engulfed in dust and wind. Rings of energy storms spread outwards from the two of them, sweeping everything away. Countless strong winds, sharp as blades, ravaged the earth and destroyed living beings.

The power of their fight exceeded everyone's expectations, forcing them to retreat even further.

The entire battleground was now filled with dust, sand, darkness, and elemental energy, looking like a chaotic mess.

"It's been so long since I last saw him, and Wu Mo has become even stronger. I never expected him to have broken through to the fourth tribulation martial artist!"

"Yes, we're still standing still, while he's far ahead of us."

"Lu Hai's strength is only at the third tribulation level, which is far too much weaker than Wu Mo's fourth tribulation level. It is impossible for him to defeat Lu Hai."

"..."

On the field, some of the more powerful elders were able to perceive the specific details of the confrontation between the two.

They quickly realized the true strength of Wu Mo and Lu Hai.

Lu Hai survived three tribulations and became a third-tribulation martial artist, while Wu Mo survived four tribulations and became a fourth-tribulation martial artist.

A calamity creates a new world.

The difference in their strength was so great that nothing could bridge it.

As expected, as the battle intensified, Lu Hai's vast ocean gradually became illusory and shaky, showing signs of collapse. In contrast, Wu Mo's mountains became increasingly solid, unchanged, and incredibly heavy, constantly pressing down as if they were truly going to fill in the ocean and completely defeat Lu Hai.

Bang!
Lu Hai persevered desperately, but ultimately did not last long. Suddenly, a clear sound rang out, and the vast ocean rapidly transformed into a rain of elemental energy, pouring down from the sky and landing on the earth, bringing a feeling of withered trees coming back to life.

Amidst this magnificent scene, a slightly disheveled figure shot backward—it was Lu Hai.

"Elder Lu Hai!" Upon seeing this, Yun Xi rushed forward to catch Lu Hai, but before she could get close, the force emanating from Lu Hai instantly sent her flying. She tried to use her Yuan Power to stop him, but it was to no avail, and she flew backward along with Lu Hai.

After retreating to a distance of ten thousand meters, Yunxi finally felt the force on her body gradually disappear. Then she shouted loudly and tried to use her Yuan energy to buffer the momentum. Finally, under such a strong suppression, the two of them gradually came to a stop.

puff!
However, at that moment, Lu Hai coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face suddenly turned pale, and his breath instantly weakened.

"Elder Lu Hai, are you alright?" Yun Xi asked worriedly.

Lu Hai shook his head and said, "I'm fine!"

As he spoke, he looked up at Wu Mo, who was looking down at him from above, and his expression was extremely unpleasant.

Even he hadn't expected that Wu Mo would overcome his tribulation again and enter the fourth tribulation realm.

Wu Mo noticed Lu Hai's gaze and smiled, a smile tinged with sarcasm: "Lu Hai, what else do you have to say? If I hadn't held back just now, you would be dead today!"

"You..." Lu Hai was instantly enraged by the other party's merciful tone, and his face turned red.

The truth was not as Wu Mo claimed at all. If he hadn't withdrawn in time, Wu Mo would have definitely killed him.

Now that he has retreated, how could Wu Mo dare to kill him in front of everyone?

But in the other party's mouth, it turned out that he was magnanimous and let Lu Hai go, which was truly shameless!
Lu Hai took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He knew that there was no point in saying these things now. He was no match for Wu Mo, and forcing Wu Mo would only humiliate him.

"Wu Mo, stop with the high-sounding words. If you refuse to admit it, then hand over the runes to activate the summoning array. I will activate it myself and take Su Chen away!"

Lu Hai knew that the chances of getting the truth out of Feng Bai were slim, so he changed the subject and revealed his real purpose.

Regardless of whether Feng Bai was responsible for Su Chen's inability to leave the Demon Cave, his ultimate goal was still to rescue Su Chen.

Wu Mo would definitely not agree to take action, so he decided to do it himself.

"no!"

As he expected, Wu Mo refused without hesitation after hearing this.

“If we activate the summoning formation now, who knows whether we’ll summon Su Chen or a Heavenly Demon? If we summon a Heavenly Demon, can you bear the consequences? Can the Ziyang Sect bear the consequences? To activate the formation for an unknown nobody and endanger the entire Ten Directions World—not only me, but everyone here would not agree to this!”

Lu Hai said expressionlessly, "You don't need to worry about this. I will take care of it all myself. Moreover, I have a way to contact Su Chen. As long as the great formation is activated, I can rescue Su Chen without attracting any Heavenly Demons or Demons!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Mo's eyes flickered slightly, revealing a thoughtful expression.

'Could it be that Lu Hai really has a way to contact Su Chen?'

Seeing Lu Hai's confident demeanor, he was skeptical, but regardless of whether it was true or not, he would not hand over the rune.

Wu Mo still refused, saying, "Lu Hai, I advise you to give up on this idea!"

"Wu Mo, if you refuse to give it to me, then I will use my own runes to randomly open the Demon Cave. You'd better think it over!"

Lu Hai said coldly, "A single rune can activate the summoning array, but its location is unknown. If it happens to be located in the Heavenly Demon Land, the consequences would be unimaginable."

Lu Hai had no other choice but to take a desperate gamble.

"you……"

Wu Mo was furious that Lu Hai would dare to do such a thing. He regretted not killing Lu Hai at any cost.

Now that things have come to this, it's too late for him to make a move.

Wu Mo's eyes darted around, and he said, "Then let's ask the others for their opinions. If they agree, I have no objections!"

"it is good!"

……

While Wu Mo and Lu Hai were locked in a stalemate, Su Chen also encountered a problem.

Under the sweeping attacks of the Heavenly Demons, the number of demons is decreasing, while the number of Heavenly Demons is increasing, and they have already occupied all the demon caves.

As a result, he had nowhere to even settle down.

Fortunately, he had been hiding himself using the power of the Heavenly Demon, which prevented him from being exposed.

"The number of demons has increased, and their strength has also grown. It must be the appearance of the Asura King. But judging from their current appearance, they seem unaware that there are human warriors in the Demon Cave. If they are exposed, the consequences could be dire!"

After observing for a period of time, Su Chen came to this conclusion.

This is also why he has never dared to expose himself.

Once exposed, he will not be facing these demons and asuras, but the Asura King.

Su Chen didn't think he had the ability to survive against the Asura King.

But if this continues, as the number of demons increases, the risk of him being exposed also increases.

This army of demons is highly disciplined. Once it becomes organized, he may not be able to infiltrate it every time and escape by chance.

"I remember that the escape route planned by the dragon was to go to the far west of the Demon Cave. There is a mountain there called Demon Ridge. After going to Demon Ridge, I might be able to take the opportunity to leave the Demon Cave. It's just a pity that the dragon's memory did not explain what was special about Demon Ridge. I can only take it one step at a time."

Following the dragon's memories, Su Chen traveled westward, frequently encountering celestial demons along the way, but he managed to avoid them all.

"Stop, command!"

As he was flying, a group of demons suddenly caught up with him and called out to him.

Password?

"A lama came from the east, and a mute came from the west..." Su Chen recited a tongue twister.

This confused the demon leader: "What the hell?"

Before he finished speaking, Su Chen made his move and refined them all.

After obtaining their memories, they learned his password.

"So the password was 'King Asura, with boundless strength, invincible in attack and unbeatable in battle', how shameless!"

Su Chen shook his head slightly, and after reading all the memories, he was suddenly stunned.

"Huh, the Pure Yang Pool!" (End of Chapter)
