Chapter 82: Deliberately Making Friends

  There's another update tonight!

  "Qin Xiaoge, this time I'm inviting you personally, you won't refuse again, will you?" Ximen Yu said with a smile.

  "As long as you don't mind me, I'd also like to experience the extravagance of the Daijia family, haha."

  Ximen Yu's heart was delighted to hear the tone of Qin Wushuang's voice. It could be seen that Qin's family's hostility towards Ximen's clan had basically been eliminated.

  At this time, Xun Slope got off his donkey and smiled: "Then I'll be waiting for your arrival at the mansion at any moment."

  "Alright, alright." Qin Wushuang's ears suddenly perked up, "We're being too loud, someone is coming."

  An old man and a young boy exchanged a smile, having an unspoken understanding. Their silhouettes swiftly parted, darting into the bamboo forest, vanishing in an instant.

  In this battle, neither side wants to expose themselves. Ximen Yutian, a true martial artist of the ninth rank, can't defeat a young martial child, and naturally doesn't want this matter to be leaked out.

  Qin Wushuang, having temporarily made amends with Ximen Yu, naturally did not want to reveal the contents of this battle. After all, a sixteen or seventeen year old young martial artist, was too overbearing and attention-seeking.

  ……

  The commotion of this battle was quite large, especially the momentum of the strong fighting, which continued to spread out. Although the two chose a remote location, they still attracted onlookers.

  This bamboo forest is quiet in the midst of noise, and there are many inns around it. In these inns live martial youths from various counties of Nanyun Province.

  One by one, they heard the sound and rushed over in this direction.

  "Look over there..."

  "What's going on? Is it a landslide?"

  "What's going on? The terrain is so neatly dug out? And these trenches, they still reek of the aura of a fierce battle between strong foes."

  "What an intense and powerful masculine aura! This is absolutely a showdown between masters!"

  By the side of the big pit, a crowd gathered in an instant, including Da Xiyang and Yun Qingyan, who were both present. From their expressions, it was clear that they were all shocked to the core.

  The sound of discussion continued, and among familiar martial arts practitioners, they were even more head-to-head, exchanging their insights with each other.

  A huge pit that can bury dozens of people. Next to the pit, there are concentric trenches as deep as knee level.

  They could see the shock in each other's eyes.

  This is a devastating destructive power that is beyond compare.

  According to the common sense of the martial arts practitioners, a duel that can cause such destruction should be at least between top-notch True Martial Realm cultivators.

  "This is definitely a battle between two strong masters of the Seventh Stage of the True Martial Realm!" exclaimed a martial youth excitedly.

  "What a pity! We're one step too late! If we could have seen the top-notch True Martial Realm experts' showdown, it would have been greatly beneficial to our cultivation!"

  "Yang Shao, didn't Qin Wusuo come out with you?" Yun Qingyan joined in the excitement for a while, and when she walked over, not seeing Qin Wusuo, she couldn't help but ask.

  Da Xiyang shook his head slightly, his eyebrows furrowed, carefully observing the large pit. From time to time, he walked to the deep ditch and rummaged through it.

  "What are you looking at?" Yun Qingyan asked curiously.

  "This ravine was actually trampled down by foot power!" Da Xiyang said in a deep voice, "This kind of cultivation is probably not as simple as the seven segments of the True Martial Realm."

  "How did you know?" Yun Qingyan was even more puzzled.

  Da Xiyang smiled faintly and didn't respond. Zhen Wu Realm Seventh Stage, his father Da Xi Heng was also at the Seventh Stage of the Zhen Wu Realm. Da Xiyang still had a good understanding of his father's strength.

  It's possible to deliberately trample this trench with foot strength, but the trench in front of us is clearly left over from a battle. In other words, the person who did this didn't have any intention or artificial effort, but rather a natural and powerful force that plowed the ground into such deep trenches.

  Strong, not just strong!

  "Da Xu brother, based on your speculation, what kind of terrifying realm have the two strong men in this decisive battle actually reached?"

  A martial artist from another county walked over and asked tentatively.

  "Unfathomable..." That was all Da Xiyang could say.

  "How profound is it?"

  The wutong trees next to them were all shocked, and someone muttered: "It can't be the ninth stage of Zhenwu Realm, right?"

  "Nine Dan? Impossible!"

  "How is it impossible?"

  "In our Southern Yun State, there is only one person who has reached the 9th stage of Zhenwu Realm, and that is Xi Men's Sect Master! It can't be that he alone can split a clone to fight with himself, right? Haha."

  "Well, I suppose so."

  This inference is also logical, after all, the Ximen family is a big shot in Nanyun Prefecture, standing out from the crowd, and there are no other branches.

  Zhenwu Realm Ninth Stage, only the Ximen Dafang family has it. Other families, Zhenwu Realm Eighth Stage are extremely rare.

  It should be known that theoretically, a true martial artist of the 8th rank already has the qualifications to compete for the position of Grandmaster.

  "So that's what it means to be a true martial artist at the 8th level of the Zhen Wu Realm. It's truly too powerful, I wonder when I'll be able to reach this realm, even if it means living ten years less, I'm willing to do so."

  "Ten years? I'd rather take twenty years in exchange."

  The martial arts practitioners were filled with emotion, their tone was one of boundless admiration. In a world that revered martial prowess, the worship of the strong and the yearning for great power was something that no one could escape.

  Talking about it, feeling emotional about it, envying it...

  Daxi Yang stayed for a moment, but couldn't find any more clues, so he turned around and left. Yun Qingyan saw Daxi Yang return to the inn, and since he was alone and didn't want to stay either, he followed him back.

  ……

  Qin Wushuang returned to the inn, sat cross-legged, and regulated his breathing to calm down the turbulent energy in his body. In his previous life, he was killed by the backlash of true energy and died after going mad from entering the fire. After reincarnation, he naturally couldn't afford to make the same mistake again. A person can't fall twice on the same road.

  "Ximen valve master, indeed worthy of being a true martial realm 9th rank. Fortunately, my 'Yang True Classic' is extremely strong and unyielding, otherwise today would be quite troublesome. Indeed, I have finally seen the true strength of a true martial realm 9th rank expert. But I wonder, what level is this Ximen valve master among the 9th ranks?"

  Similarly, as a true martial artist of the 9th rank, there must be differences in realm and strength between each other.

  Today at Ximen's place, he verified it again and his confidence increased a lot. At least, he can now exchange blows with a Ninth-Order True Martial Realm cultivator.

  And his "Yan Yang Zhen Jing" although reached Dzogchen, but the fire is still owed some, this need time to temper.

  What's most important is that he didn't use the ultimate move of the Nine Suns Palm - Nine Suns Destroying the World - when he exchanged that one palm with Sima Yi.

  In other words, he didn't use his trump card, otherwise, Ximen Chuixue would have suffered a loss just now.

  Just finished vomiting and was about to get out of bed when there was a knock at the door outside.

  The door opened, but it was Da Xiyang and Yun Qingyan, which was not unexpected for Qin Wushuang.

  "Qin Wushuang, what are you doing closing the door in broad daylight? It's lively outside, don't you want to go take a look?" Yun Qingyan called out loudly.

  "What's all the commotion?" Qin Wushuang asked knowingly.

  "The super strong clashed, blasting out a huge pit, with many gullies and ravines, what a wonderful scene. Everyone judged that this should be the peak duel between the strongest of the True Martial Realm's eighth stage."

  Clouds lightly smoke eyebrow flying color dance ground describe

  Zhen Wu Realm Eight Stage? Qin Wusuo secretly smiled bitterly, if one side was Zhen Wu Realm Eight Stage, then the battle just now would have left a corpse on the scene.

  When a true martial artist of the eighth rank encounters one of the ninth rank, it is a situation where death is certain.

  "What a pity I didn't get to see such a duel, it's really regrettable." Yun Qingyan sighed.

  "What a pity? It's really timely, but it may not be a good thing." Da Xiyang suddenly walked over, glanced at Qin Wushuang and smiled slightly, then asked, "Wushuang, have you been staying in the house all along?"

  "Yes." Qin Wushuang replied calmly, "I just heard it was very lively outside, and it turned out to be this kind of thing."

  Da Xiyang smiled again, but didn't say anything else.

  At this moment, a commotion broke out in the corridor. A martial youth shouted loudly: "Breaking news! The Western Gate's Grand Elder is hosting a banquet tonight to invite all the martial youths participating in the trial from Nan Yun State. What do you guys say? Are we going or not?"

  As soon as this news was announced in the inn, it immediately caused a sensation. The martial arts students who had already returned to their rooms rushed out again.
