Beginning with the Five Animals Fist to Become a Saint

Chapter 661 Battle against a Half-Step Grandmaster!

Below the middle finger peak.

boom!
Accompanied by a loud, resounding impact.

The shockwave exploded, transforming into solid waves that spread in all directions.

The powerful wind pressure instantly whipped up sand and gravel.

At this moment, Feng Zhen was also struck as if by a heavy blow, and his body staggered backward.

“Vice Prefect Feng, you’ve become weaker!” Fang Daoquan said.

Then he smiled and said, "No! I should say I've become stronger!"

At this moment, Fang Daoquan looked extremely confident.

In the brief exchange, Feng Zhen, whom he had previously regarded as a formidable opponent, was easily suppressed by him.

He instantly knew that with his spiritual transformation, he could easily crush Feng Zhen when facing him again.

Despite Feng Zhen's strength not diminishing in the slightest under his mental pressure.

However, due to his suppression, he could only exert 60-70% of his strength at most, and it was even more difficult for him to fully mobilize his power.

In the course of the fight, this manifested as a decline in Feng Zhen's strength.

But he knew that wasn't the case; it was simply that Feng Zhen was no longer able to unleash his full fighting power in front of him.

Looking at Feng Zhen, who was silent at the moment, Fang Daoquan smiled again.

Then, with a swift movement, he shot forth like an arrow released from a bow.

The powerful wind pressure had already reached Feng Zhen before he could.

Feng Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze serious.

"Lord, I'm here to help you!" Just then.

A loud voice rang out from beside him.

"Brother Liu, retreat quickly! You are no match for him!" Feng Zhen said immediately upon hearing the voice beside him.

But at their level, even if it's a short burst of speed and they haven't fully increased their speed, it's still as fast as lightning.

As the sound traveled back and forth, the man beside him had already formed his five fingers into hooks and was grabbing fiercely at Fang Daoquan.

"Nonsense!!" Fang Daoquan sneered as he saw the ordinary people who had suddenly appeared.

Then, he glanced around.

The spiritual pressure forged from the true essence of martial arts erupted instantly.

Boom——

In that man's heart.

At that moment, he felt as if the earth had been struck by lightning, and his mind was greatly shaken.

His strength dissipated, and his true essence, having lost the guidance of his will, instantly deviated from its original course, rampaging wildly within his body.

Fang Daoquan remained unmoved despite sensing the change in the man's aura.

With a single grasp of his five fingers, he pinned the man's hand.

crackling-

The next moment, the sound of popping beans rang out, and the palm was instantly twisted out of shape.

Then, Fang Daoquan moved again, his outstretched palm instantly breaking through the man's center, and a heavy palm struck the man's chest.

boom! !

A muffled thunderclap resounded from the man's chest.

His back was bulging and his chest was sunken.

This palm strike shattered his ribs and internal organs.

The man's body was instantly blasted away like a cannonball.

This series of changes ended in the blink of an eye.

Martial artists at this level move incredibly fast.

Before Feng Zhen could even intervene, the man who had suddenly appeared was blasted away like a sandbag.

Even a man as powerful as a veteran master was like a child at this moment, facing Fang Daoquan alone, yet utterly powerless to fight back.

at the same time.

Jiang Ning had been observing Fang Daoquan's moves.

Just before Lord Zhou Sheng left, his only request was that he restrain Fang Daoquan, one of the five peak masters of Zhixuan Mountain.

Therefore, while Feng Zhen was making his move, he kept observing Fang Daoquan's methods.

After all, Fang Daoquan is currently the number one expert under the master of Zhixuan Mountain.

He is stronger than Fang Yu, who attacked him before.

Now, it is clear that Fang Daoquan has made new progress in strength on the original basis, and has reached a new level. He is only half a step away from stepping into the realm of second-grade grandmaster.

This final step will come naturally and success will follow.

Such achievements forced him to be cautious.

After this brief observation, he had a better understanding of the situation.

Fang Daoquan's current strength is not in his physical physique.

If one wants to become stronger from the current physical foundation, it is almost impossible to make any significant improvement without undergoing a complete physical transformation.

What Fang Daoquan possesses today is a strong spirit and will.

Before Fang Daoquan, whether it was Feng Zhen, the deputy director of the Five Sacred Mountains Inspection Office, Zhong Yue, or the grandmaster man he didn't recognize who had just made his move.

All of them were suppressed by Fang Daoquan's martial will when facing him, making it difficult for them to exert their strength and allowing him to easily crush them.

"Martial will, mental pressure!" Jiang Ning thought to himself.

next moment.

He raised his hand and grabbed, a golden light flashing from his palm.

Then the golden light expanded, transforming into a rough sword embryo that he held in his hand.

boom!
As he moved, the spider cracks beneath his feet immediately spread outwards.

The air, as if filled with water, was parted by the longsword in his hand.

"I've been watching you for a while now!" Fang Daoquan said, his gaze instantly fixed on the man in the silver mask.

Then, he twisted his body, bent over with a clang, and his fist transformed into a spearhead.

boom--

The shockwave exploded in front of him instantly, turning into a white mist that spread outwards.

In an instant.

Jiang Ning's sword blocked Feng Zhen's path, and the blade struck hard against Fang Daoquan's incoming fist.

clang! !

The sound of metal clashing instantly reverberated at the foot of the mountain.

This strike was powerful and heavy, and Fang Daoquan immediately took three steps back.

With each step, the ground caved in and the soil cracked.

Jiang Ning, however, was already standing in front of Feng Zhen, several steps ahead.

"Thank you, brother!" Feng Zhen behind him said.

"No need! I'm acting on the Marquis's orders!" Jiang Ning said calmly, then added, "Leave this man to me, and Chief Feng, go and support the other brothers!"

“Okay!” Feng Zhen immediately responded upon hearing the silver-masked man’s words.

Then, he glanced at Fang Daoquan and saw that Fang Daoquan's face was slightly flushed.

Clearly, Fang Daoquan did not fare well in their recent exchange.

Blood and qi surged, and breathing became turbulent.

"So powerful! I wonder which member of the royal family this person belongs to?" Feng Zhen thought to himself, secretly amazed as he looked at the back of the man in the silver mask.

"This man is now in your care!" Feng Zhen said to Jiang Ning.

After saying that, he immediately slipped away.

at the same time.

Fang Daoquan's eyes snapped open.

boom!
As he moved, the air around him exploded like a tidal wave.

"You're underestimating me, aren't you?" Jiang Ning said.

With each step, it was like an arrow piercing the sky.

next moment.

He held his long sword horizontally.

The air was instantly compressed into a tangible tide by this slap.

Fang Daoquan had already experienced the brute strength of the silver-masked man.

In his view, this power was simply unreasonable, an inhuman existence.

Before he could even react in surprise, he instinctively put his arm across his body to block the attack.

Bang!
The sword slammed heavily onto his arm.

An immense force pressed down, and Fang Daoquan was sent flying once again.

After a brief delay by Jiang Ning, Feng Zhen was able to escape Fang Daoquan's blockade.

Then, Fang Daoquan landed heavily on the ground again.

He shook his hands, his blood and qi surging, dispelling the numbness in his hair, while his eyes remained fixed on the man in the silver mask.

"You're very strong! You're clearly not a second-grade Grandmaster, yet you can exert this kind of pressure on me. You're the first person to do so!" Fang Daoquan stared intently at the man in the silver mask and said.

"Thank you for the compliment!" Jiang Ning's tone remained completely unchanged.

Under the silver mask, no change in his expression could be seen; he was as cold as a machine.

"With such strength, you must be no nobody. May I ask your name?" Fang Daoquan asked the man in the silver mask again.

Upon hearing this, a slight smile appeared on the lips beneath the silver mask, curving upwards.

Jiang Ning then pointed to the silver mask on his face.

"What do you think?" Upon hearing the silver-masked man's words, Fang Daoquan's lips twitched.

He suddenly realized how stupid his words had been.

Since the man in front of them, who appeared to be royalty, was wearing a mask, he was clearly trying to conceal his identity.

Under such circumstances, how could one reveal their identity?

"It seems you are also a cowardly coward hiding your true colors!" Fang Daoquan said immediately.

Jiang Ning smiled and said, "Peak Master Fang, say whatever you want! But with me here, Peak Master Fang shouldn't overthink it!"

Upon hearing this, Fang Daoquan glanced at him.

With Feng Zhen's arrival, although Zhixuan Mountain had more Grandmasters, they were still at a disadvantage.

boom!
Accompanied by a loud bang.

A grandmaster-level elder was instantly swept away by Feng Zhen's staff, crashing heavily into the rocks.

He glanced at it briefly before looking away.

He knew that what truly determined the outcome of today's battle was not the battlefield Feng Zhen had joined.

It was a battlefield between him and the man in front of him wearing a silver mask.

It was also the battlefield where Lord Zhou Sheng and Lord Yunshan Haishan had already clashed in the sky.

Either of these two battlefields will end first, which will cause the situation on the battlefield where Feng Zhen is located to become unbalanced.

As the thought flashed through his mind, Fang Daoquan immediately exhaled deeply, completely suppressing the turmoil within his body and the disorder of his breath.

next moment.

He raised his hand and with a flash of white light, a long spear appeared in his hand.

The gun is seven feet two inches long.

“Since you won’t tell me, then I’ll expose your true colors myself!” Fang Daoquan said.

The words fell.

He twirled his spear and flicked the tip.

boom! !

The air exploded instantly, and white mist spread.

“Come on!” Jiang Ning said.

Looking at Fang Daoquan at this moment, his fighting spirit rose, and he felt a little excited.

Fang Daoquan, the peak master of Zhixuan Mountain, is the strongest opponent he has faced in direct combat so far.

That was a powerful being who was just half a step away from becoming a second-grade Grandmaster.

Moreover, their accumulation and foundation in the three ranks are extremely profound.

The strength of a top-tier grandmaster speaks for itself.

He gripped his longsword tightly, then slashed it, the blade cutting through an arc.

Right now.

Roar!
The moment Fang Daoquan moved, in Jiang Ning's eyes, he transformed into a dragon emerging from the sea.

A powerful sense of oppression suddenly descended upon him as if it were a tangible force.

Martial arts will!

A thought flashed through Jiang Ning's mind.

Immediately, his divine sense erupted.

In an instant.

His eyesight was restored.

Then, with a swift stroke of his longsword, he easily lured Fang Daoquan's dragon out of the sea.

Seeing this, Fang Daoquan withdrew his spear, his power now perfectly controlled.

boom--

Another stab.

This thrust was like a dragon reaching out with its claws.

Up close, Jiang Ning could even see every wrinkle and texture of the Azure Dragon's head.

"As expected of a half-step Grandmaster!" he thought to himself.

His eyes regained their clarity in just a moment, and then the longsword in his hand drew a circle once more.

Guided by his power, he easily deflected another attack from Fang Daoquan.

At this moment, Fang Daoquan not only did not retreat, but launched an even fiercer attack.

In their brief exchange, he could tell that the silver-masked man could essentially ignore his mental pressure.

Although they did not reach his level in terms of mental and physical tempering, they were clearly far superior to Feng Zhen and others.

Roar!
Roar!
Roar!
With each thrust of the spear, the azure dragon that appeared before Jiang Ning's eyes became even more ferocious and more realistic.

Jiang Ning, however, remained calm and composed.

With the combined power of the Two Elements Sword and the Shifting Stars technique, his defensive capabilities were extremely strong. He could easily neutralize Fang Daoquan's offensive and turn it into his own.

As the intense exchanges continued, Fang Daoquan suddenly saw a circle rising around the silver-masked man.

"What kind of sword move is this?" He wondered, and his attack slowed down a bit.

at this time.

Jiang Ning moved swiftly, thrusting his longsword forward.

Boom——

This sword thrust was so powerful that it could shatter the heavens and the earth.

The condensed energy was suddenly released at this moment.

"not good!!"

Upon feeling the pressure emanating from the silver-masked man's sword strike, Fang Daoquan's expression immediately changed slightly.

He then stepped back with his right foot, crouched slightly, and his whole body formed a taut bowstring, with the spear in his hand as the arrow on the string.

A surge of energy erupted from his body, like waves crashing forward, rushing toward the tip of the spear.

In an instant, the power was accumulated to its maximum.

Roar! ! !
Fang Daoquan unleashed his full power once again, thrusting out this spear with his peak strength.

Faced with the silver-masked man's outburst, he had no intention of backing down; he only wanted to confront him head-on.

Boom——

The moment the sword tip and the spearhead collided.

The ground beneath their feet suddenly tore apart, the earth churned like waves, and ravines and cracks spread in all directions.

A deafening explosion resounded through the sky.

It attracted a lot of attention.

Everyone's eyes immediately fell on Fang Daoquan's right arm, which was holding the gun, with the tattered cloth on his shoulder fluttering in the wind.

"That's great!!" Fang Daoquan grinned as he looked at Jiang Ning, who was several feet away, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit.

He twirled his spear again, placing it behind his back as if he were carrying it on his back.

He then crouched slightly, his eyes fixed on the man in the silver mask, his gaze unusually bright.

"Come!"

he said loudly.

The voice fell.

boom!
The ground beneath his feet exploded once more, and his figure transformed into a blur as he charged towards the silver-masked man.

He spun the long spear on his back as if it were a sledgehammer.

next moment.

When he reached within ten feet of the silver-masked man, the man swung his spear around wildly.

He gripped the butt of the gun with both hands and then slashed down suddenly.

boom! !

He swung the spear in a perfectly round motion, forming a bow-like arc.

As the spearhead slashed downwards, the air instantly spread out like lake water.

The pale blue liquid is visible to the naked eye.

Watching Fang Dao unleash his full power in splitting Mount Hua.

A golden light suddenly appeared around Jiang Ning.

Then, he thrust out his long sword like lightning.

laugh!
At that moment, the void was torn apart by the tip of his sword, like a tattered cloth.

A visible flow of air ripples along the blade.

boom! !

There was another roar.

The earth collapsed again.

Spiderweb-like cracks spread outwards from Jiang Ning's feet in all directions.

Even though the force was transmitted into the earth, his feet sank several inches deep into the soil.

Fang Daoquan's pupils contracted again as he looked at the unmoving silver-masked man.

His strike was more than a thousand pounds heavy.

That was a strike that gathered all the strength in the body and unleashed its most powerful force.

The silver-masked man, however, took the attack from the spot with ease.

This clearly indicates that the man with the silver mask is stronger than he imagined.

"He's not a second-grade Grandmaster, yet he has a physique far superior to mine. Could he be the legendary invincible Grandmaster?"

The thought of this possibility stirred up a wave of emotions in Fang Daoquan's heart.
