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

"Bi Tianyu?"

"He is back?"

"Why don't I see him?"

Everyone looked at Yuan Sifang in confusion. They looked around but still couldn't see Bi Tianyu.

But just then, a strange sound faintly came from the void.

Boom boom boom!
The sound came from afar, as if it had traveled from the vast ancient times, traversing endless time and space to arrive here.

The sound didn't last long before it disappeared.

However, everyone present heard it.

The moment that sound rang out, the whole world seemed to fall silent.

The energy left over from the battle between Su Chen and Yuan Sifang and the others seemed to be suppressed by an invisible energy and quickly subsided.

Upon hearing the voice, everyone felt their hearts calm down, and a sense of awe arose inexplicably.

"It's Bi Tianyu!"

Suddenly, a voice startled everyone, and they quickly saw that a phantom figure was gradually taking shape next to Yuan Sifang.

It was Bi Tianyu.

He was dressed in a blue robe and stood suspended between heaven and earth, as if he had merged with the world, giving people a sense of ethereal beauty.

He was tall and handsome, but these were merely his outward appearance. What truly made him unforgettable was his charisma.

Seeing Bi Tianyu is like seeing all your troubles disappear, and your soul is purified at that moment.

"Tianyu..."

Previously arrogant Yuan Sifang softened his attitude and even spoke with a hint of respect after Bi Tianyu appeared.

"No need to say more, I already know what happened here."

But before he could finish speaking, Bi Tianyu interrupted him, his voice like the first gentle breeze in the world, refreshing and soothing.

"Ah."

Without anger or argument, Yuan Sifang nodded calmly.

This scene caused everyone's expressions to become subtle.

It seems that Yuan Sifang doesn't act like a sect leader in front of Bi Tianyu, but rather like Bi Tianyu's servant.

Ignoring everyone's thoughts, Bi Tianyu looked at Ji Ziyang and asked, "Sect Master, is there anything else you'd like to say to me?"

"Tianyu, now that you know about this, you should know that the fault does not lie with Su Chen."

Ji Ziyang didn't pay attention to Bi Tianyu's tone. The latter was also a Martial Immortal, and the two could be considered peers.

Although Bi Tianyu may not have been as long as him in the Martial Immortal realm, it doesn't necessarily mean that the other party is weaker than him.

He naturally couldn't treat Bi Tianyu the same way he would treat the sect leader.

Of course, Su Chen was the same.

Ji Ziyang glanced at Su Chen and said, "You are all disciples of the Ziyang Sect, and you should get along well. Besides, the current situation is not optimistic. In my opinion, it would be better to resolve this matter peacefully and let it go."

"The sect leader is right." Bi Tianyu nodded in agreement.

Upon hearing this, Ji Ziyang smiled faintly.

Yuan Sifang and the other two exchanged glances, their expressions all somewhat grim.

They hadn't expected things to turn out this way after they brought Bi Tianyu out.

Instead of making a move, the other party sided with Ji Ziyang, making the three of them look like clowns.

"but……"

At this moment, Bi Tianyu suddenly changed the subject, "However, individual actions should not be generalized to the entire gang. The people who have a grudge against Su Chen are not the Yuan Gang, but certain individuals. Yet Su Chen wiped out the entire Yuan Gang. If I don't give him an explanation for such an act, I'm afraid I won't be able to convince the public in the future."

As he spoke, he scanned the area, finally fixing his gaze on Ji Ziyang, and asked, "Sect Master, do you think what I said makes sense?"

"Oh? Then what do you suggest?"

Before Ji Ziyang could speak, Su Chen took the initiative to ask.

He looked at Bi Tianyu with great interest, showing no reverence whatsoever for this legend of the Ziyang Sect.

Just like when they first met, the other party still maintained an arrogant and condescending attitude.

But things are different now. Back then, Su Chen didn't even have the right to speak in front of Bi Tianyu, but now the two are on the same level.

Su Chen was naturally entitled to speak.

This was his doing, he didn't need to explain himself, and he didn't want Ji Ziyang to get involved.

He wanted to see how Bi Tianyu would deal with him.

Upon hearing this, Bi Tianyu chuckled and said, "As expected of a Martial Immortal who is not even a hundred years old, you speak with such confidence."

After a pause, Bi Tianyu continued, "What I want is very simple: take one of my moves."

"Will you take my move?" Upon hearing this, Ji Ziyang's expression softened slightly.

He could accept anything as long as it wasn't a major battle between the two sides.

It's just one move; it shouldn't have a significant impact on the two of them.

"one move?"

Su Chen shook his head and chuckled. Unlike Ji Ziyang, he understood Bi Tianyu's thoughts.

The reason the other party said "one move" was not out of kindness or a desire for peace, but because they believed that defeating Su Chen would only require one move.

"Is one move not enough?"

Gu Xiaoyao, who hadn't spoken until now, said something with a half-smile.

Ever since Bi Tianyu appeared, his gaze had never left him.

The main reason is that after arriving in the Ten Directions World, the person he spent the most time with was Su Chen, but the person he heard the most about was Bi Tianyu.

If he hadn't known so much about Su Chen, he might have been shocked by Bi Tianyu's deeds.

Unfortunately, with such a brilliant example before him, Bi Tianyu's legendary life seemed somewhat dim in comparison to Su Chen's.

That being said, he was still very curious about Bi Tianyu's strength.

Especially after seeing Bi Tianyu in person, he noticed that the other man exuded a strange aura that even he found odd.

This aura doesn't seem to belong to the Ten Directions World.

Of course, this was just his guess, since he didn't know much about the Ten Directions World.

This world is more mysterious than he imagined; he has only been here a short time, so it is impossible for him to know everything.

It's perfectly normal for him to feel that way.

Upon hearing this, Bi Tianyu glanced at Gu Xiaoyao, his gaze slightly narrowed: "You are not from the Ten Directions World."

With just one glance, he saw through Gu Xiaoyao's identity.

"what?"

These words did not startle Ji Ziyang and the others, but rather Yuan Sifang and the other two.

The three looked at each other, staring at Gu Xiaoyao in disbelief.

If he's not from the Ten Directions World, doesn't that mean he comes from another world? Is he cultivating a completely new law?

Thinking of this, the gazes of Yuan Sifang and the other two became subtle, occasionally falling on Gu Xiaoyao.

Gu Xiaoyao naturally noticed the change in the three people's eyes.

Before, he might have found it strange and wondered why, but after talking with Ji Ziyang, he knew the reason.

All of this is related to the Five Elements Laws of cultivation in the Ten Directions World.

Chaos gives rise to Yin and Yang, Yin and Yang give rise to the Five Elements, and all things in the world are composed of the Five Elements.

Therefore, the Ten Directions World, which cultivates the Five Elements Law, is naturally able to cultivate the laws of other worlds, because the former can encompass everything.

Moreover, the acceptance rate was much higher than that of Gu Xiaoyao, who cultivated both the Five Elements Laws. Furthermore, there was another reason: leaving this world and traveling to other worlds was far too difficult.

Many martial artists at the peak of the Martial Immortal realm cannot do this.

The reasons behind this are unknown even to Gu Xiaoyao; it is estimated that only the strongest beings in the Heavenly Demon World would know.

After all, the latter frequently invades other worlds and might have some knowledge in this area.

When a martial arts immortal reaches a point where they can no longer improve, the best way to enhance their strength is to travel to other worlds and cultivate other laws.

There are countless laws governing the world, but the laws that cultivators in each world cultivate are fixed and unchanging.

For example, in the Ten Directions World, martial artists can only cultivate the Five Elements Law, and then many other laws are extended from this framework.

However, strictly speaking, these laws all belong to the Five Elements theory.

This means that once one's understanding of the laws reaches a certain level, there is no further progress.

Without seeking new ways out, one will be trapped in one place for the rest of one's life and unable to break free.

However, if one could travel to other worlds and cultivate the laws of those worlds, the probability of breaking through would be greatly increased.

Based on his deductions after talking with Ji Ziyang, it is believed that the cultivation laws of each of the myriad worlds are different.

Only when the laws cultivated by the Martial Immortal reach a certain level can one truly transcend the world and thus achieve immortality.

To achieve this, traveling the world is the key.

Unfortunately, in both the Gu Master world and the Ten Directions world, no one has been able to achieve this for hundreds of thousands of years.

Based on this, Yuan Sifang and the other two may have had the same guess, which is why they showed such expressions.

The three wanted the cultivation laws on Gu Xiaoyao's body.

“Not bad.” Gu Xiaoyao did not deny it, and responded succinctly.

Despite already guessing Gu Xiaoyao's identity, Yuan Sifang and the other two still gasped.

"Then how many moves do you want?"

These words were not spoken to Su Chen, but to Gu Xiaoyao.

Gu Xiaoyao was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Su Chen, who replied, "One move will suffice."

His opponent wanted to defeat him in one move, and he wanted to defeat his opponent in one move as well.

He also wanted to see just how strong Bi Tianyu really was.

Upon hearing this, Bi Tianyu chuckled lightly, without any sarcasm, but rather with indifference. He calmly said, "As you wish, but I have one condition."

"What are the conditions?" Ji Ziyang was even more anxious than Su Chen and couldn't help but ask.

Bi Tianyu didn't speak, but looked at Su Chen, indicating that the other party should speak up.

Seeing this, Bi Tianyu didn't hold back: "If I win, I want his cultivation method!"

He was referring to Gu Xiaoyao.

Yuan Sifang and the other two knew about Gu Xiaoyao's special qualities, and he naturally knew as well.

In the past, defeating Su Chen would have been a casual act for him, nothing to worry about.

But now, because of Gu Xiaoyao's appearance, he has become serious and more interested.

"You want my cultivation method?"

Gu Xiaoyao chuckled and agreed on Su Chen's behalf without waiting for him to think it over.

"No problem. If you lose, you'll have to hand over your cultivation method. How about that?"

He trusted Su Chen a lot. Bi Tianyu wanted his cultivation method, and he wanted the other party's cultivation method just as much.

After all, no matter how much one exchanges cultivation insights with Su Chen and Ji Ziyang, it is not as profound as the experience of cultivating oneself.

Observing the cultivation methods of others can achieve the same effect.

“Agreed!” Bi Tianyu nodded.

Su Chen: "...!"

"Aren't you afraid I'll lose the duel?" Su Chen transmitted his voice to Gu Xiaoyao.

Gu Xiaoyao replied, "It doesn't matter if I lose. Anyway, the cultivation method of the Gu Master is different from the cultivation method of your Ten Directions World. Even if I show it to him, he will not be able to cultivate it. At most, he can only learn a little bit of knowledge."

This is true.

Su Chen had a fairly good understanding of Gu Xiaoyao's cultivation methods.

It's no exaggeration to say that Gu Masters almost entirely rely on Gu worms for cultivation.

Especially in the early stages, one cannot cultivate without Gu worms.

Even at Gu Xiaoyao's level, he couldn't completely abandon the Gu worms and still needed to cultivate with their help from time to time.

Therefore, even if Gu Xiaoyao told Bi Tianyu about his cultivation method, he could only watch and could not cultivate it.

This is why Su Chen did not cultivate the laws of the Gu Dao world after breaking through to the Martial Immortal realm.

It's true that even a skilled cook can't cook without rice; it's better not to practice at all.

Seeing that Gu Xiaoyao had no objections, Bi Tianyu assumed that Su Chen had also agreed, and thus prepared to take action.

Yuan Sifang and the others stepped back to make room for Su Chen and Bi Tianyu.

The crowd below looked on with anticipation as they saw that Bi Tianyu was preparing to fight Su Chen.

Before Su Chen appeared, Bi Tianyu was the number one young person in the Ten Directions World.

His former rivals, who were once more formidable than Bi Tianyu, have all now been left far behind, only able to look up to him from afar.

But ironically, in less than ten years, another prodigy like Su Chen has emerged in the Ten Directions World.

He broke through to the Martial Immortal realm at less than a hundred years old, which is truly terrifying.

The clash and confrontation between the two is bound to attract countless eyes.

Time passed slowly, and their auras accumulated, filling the void with a chilling intent.

The two stood suspended in the air, neither choosing to attack immediately, but calmly gazing at each other.

After an unknown amount of time, everyone felt an extremely oppressive atmosphere, and their minds and bodies were beginning to feel unbearably stifled.

At this moment, Bi Tianyu made a move.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he suddenly flipped his hand, and a vast power spread out from the center of his palm.

'The power of laws?'

Before he even made a move, he had already condensed his own power of laws.

Upon noticing this, Su Chen's expression hardened slightly.

Bi Tianyu has actually cultivated to this level!
This made him even more vigilant, as he was already on high alert.

Without hesitation, Su Chen's arm trembled, and the Heaven-Severing Blade appeared, followed by a surge of law power.

His power of laws is extremely complex and all-encompassing; even he himself doesn't know how many laws it contains.

Although there are many varieties, none of them are particularly powerful, a fact he has experienced firsthand.

But now is not the time to focus on these things.

When Bi Tianyu saw that Su Chen had also condensed the power of law, his usually calm eyes revealed a rare look of solemnity.

"Freeze the world!"

A deep voice came out from Bi Tianyu's mouth. He made his move!
Even the voice was icy cold, and before it even finished, everyone felt the temperature drop sharply.

It not only froze their blood and qi, but also their primordial energy and spirit.

In just a moment, some martial artists were overwhelmed and had to retreat.

Even more powerful than the blue-robed man's water law, Bi Tianyu's ice law spread out in an instant.

A pale blue hue, as the sound faded completely, swept across a vast territory, engulfing Su Chen! (End of Chapter)
