“It’s only been a little over a month since the Battle of Wudang, and he was still a Grandmaster Middle Stage then. Now he’s a Great Grandmaster?!”
“Is he human or a monster?!”
“I’ve roamed the Jianghu for decades, and I’ve never seen anyone so Heaven-Defying!”
“Isn’t that right? An ordinary Martial Artist needs decades of arduous Cultivation to enter the Great Grandmaster Realm; it’s simply impossible without it!”
“And even with hard Cultivation, it’s not enough. One also needs a great Opportunity to Breakthrough the shackles and ascend to the Great Grandmaster Realm!”
“Even those Prodigy figures famous throughout the world need to Cultivate in seclusion for many years, plus an enormous stroke of luck, to achieve the Great Grandmaster Realm!”
“Bu Jingyun is an example of someone who walked that path.”
“But Fahai… what kind of monster is he?!”
“From the last Battle of Wudang until now, just over a month, he’s gone from Grandmaster Late Stage to Great Grandmaster?!”
“A fifteen-year-old Great Grandmaster?!”
“Even with an unparalleled Opportunity, it shouldn’t be this fast!”
“Is this world crazy, or are we crazy?”
“A fifteen-year-old Great Grandmaster, reaching this Realm in just over a month…”
“Hiss—comparing oneself to others truly infuriates one. Compared to Fahai, I’m simply not worth mentioning!”
Shangguan Haitang’s heart was in turmoil, filled with indescribable shock.
If anyone present found it most unbelievable, it was her.
Because she had personally witnessed Fahai start from the Innate Realm, constantly ascending like a dark horse, until now reaching the Great Grandmaster Realm!
When she first heard Fahai’s name, he was only in the Innate Realm, ranked one hundredth on the innate ranking; shortly after, he jumped to twentieth!
In the Battle of Wuliang Mountain, he gained an Opportunity and stepped into the door of a Grandmaster!
The next time she saw him was at the Battle of Daming Lake, where he had already advanced to Grandmaster Middle Stage, fighting eight people alone, shocking the Jianghu!
From then on, the name “Fahai” resounded throughout the Martial Forest!
Then came the Battle of Wudang, where he, in the Grandmaster Late Stage, defeated Yun Feiyang and subdued the entire Wudang!
Until today, only a few months after Fahai first appeared in the Jianghu, he had rapidly climbed from the Innate Realm to a Great Grandmaster!
In a few months, he completed a Dao that ordinary people could not reach in their entire lives!
Demon Monk could no longer describe Fahai’s terror!
Evil Demon!
He was an out-and-out Evil Demon!
Only an Evil Demon could possess such a terrifying Cultivation speed!
Haitang’s eyes were filled with astonishment and disbelief.
Even Bu Jingyun frowned, his heart shaken.
Even with his exceptional talent, he only reached his current Realm at twenty years old!
Yet Fahai entered this Realm five years earlier than him!
In those five years, what terrifying level had he climbed to?
Just as Bu Jingyun was profoundly shaken, a towering golden light suddenly appeared behind him, sweeping across the sky and illuminating half the sky over Jinling!
A nine-zhang tall golden Buddha statue stood majestically between heaven and earth, with a magnificent Aura and endless solemnity!
The Buddha’s face was solemn, with a divine light that was awe-inspiring, like an enforcer from Hell!
Enveloped by the boundless Buddha light, the colossal Buddha shadow exuded an indescribable might.
He looked down with lowered eyes, surveying the Mortal World, where all living beings were like dust and weeds.
Nine Zhang Golden Body, with Buddha light shining, stood between heaven and earth, as if a true Buddha had descended!
…
Everyone looked up, gazing at the mountain-like colossal figure!
The Buddha shadow towered into the clouds, looking down upon the Mortal World!
Before it, those Jianghu heroes were like ants!
A single finger could obliterate them!
“Zhang Liu Golden Body!”
Fahai let out a low shout, raising his hand to strike with a palm, and the Golden Body moved with him!
The Buddha light condensed into a golden rainbow, streaking across the sky and descending from above!
The Golden Body struck down with a palm, and fierce winds howled, sweeping in all directions!
The might of this palm strike was enough to shake heaven and earth!
As the palm intent descended, the heroes retreated in droves!
Though they knew it wasn't directed at them, they still felt immense fear!
Because even being grazed by the residual force could mean instant death!
Bu Jingyun’s face changed drastically; he dared not hesitate, activating all his True Qi and striking out fiercely!
“Paiyun Palm!”
This palm strike was also extremely powerful!
Wild winds roared, tearing through the air!
As the palm strike was unleashed, even the flowing clouds of heaven and earth were drawn in, rolling back towards Fahai!
The momentum was grand and terrifying!
Immediately after, the two palm forces collided with a thunderous crash!
The next moment, a jaw-dropping scene unfolded!
After only a brief clash, the Paiyun Palm instantly disintegrated!
Turbulent Qi waves sent Bu Jingyun flying!
Bu Jingyun coughed up blood and fell back, shocking everyone!
A dignified Second-Rank Great Grandmaster, facing Fahai, couldn’t even withstand a single move!
In an instant, the entire scene fell silent!
Everyone’s faces turned crimson, as if their throats were choked, their faces filled with horror!
One move!
Just one move!
It was this Golden Body again!
It was truly terrifying!
During the Battle of Wudang, this Golden Body had turned the tide of battle, shocking the Martial Forest!
Now, it had descended again!
“And… this Golden Body seems even stronger than it was at Wudang!”
“Indeed, back then, Fahai’s Golden Body was definitely not this massive!”
Haitang gazed at the Golden Body, her emotions fluctuating.
“This Golden Body has grown even stronger; it is now nine zhang tall, incomparable to how it was before!”
“What kind of Martial Arts Divine Ability is this? Such a Golden Body is truly astonishing!”
“Senior Brother Yun!”
Seeing Bu Jingyun sent flying, Nie Feng immediately leaped up to catch him!
Fahai floated in the air, looking down coldly at Nie Feng below.
“Don’t waste time; both of you attack together.”
Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun exchanged glances, their expressions solemn.
“Fahai, don’t get too arrogant too soon!”
With their combined strength, even against a Third-Rank Great Grandmaster, they had a chance to fight!
“Paiyun Palm!”
“Wind God’s Leg!”
Wild winds suddenly rose, clouds surged, and Qi swept in all directions, changing the color of heaven and earth!
With the combined power of Wind and Cloud, unleashing their ultimate techniques, even a Third-Rank Great Grandmaster would fall under this strike!
“What a pity.”
Fahai sighed softly, slowly raising his palm.
“Rulai Divine Palm!”
A colossal palm, covering the sky, tore through the wind and clouds, crashing down from the heavens!
The terrifying palm strike could shatter mountains and break peaks, unstoppable!
Under this single palm, the two were instantly blasted a hundred zhang away, crashing heavily to the ground, like dead dogs, their lives hanging in the balance!
Witnessing this scene, everyone was shocked into silence.
Fahai… had he become this strong?!”
Gasps of cold air were incessant, the heroes’ faces were pale, filled with horror!
These two—Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun, once ranked fifth and sixth on the heavenly pride ranking, both Second-Rank Great Grandmasters!
Yet they were severely wounded in a single move, utterly defenseless!
Previously on Wudang Mountain, Yun Feiyang was able to fight fiercely with Fahai for a long time before finally losing to him.
But in today’s battle, the combined forces of Wind and Cloud were easily defeated, unable to even resist!
Fahai truly was a Prodigy among Prodigies!
With such terrifying growth speed, who in the Jianghu could rival him?
For thousands of years, there had never been such a terrifying Genius as Fahai!
Even Wang Xianzhi, known as Number Two Under Heaven, had not reached such a Realm at the same age!
Wang Xianzhi’s position as Number Two was truly well-deserved!
If Wudang and Six Doors were to learn of Fahai’s growth to this extent, they would likely lose sleep!
Suddenly, someone seemed to realize something and exclaimed, “With Fahai’s rate of advancement, he will probably reach the Heavenly Human Realm far sooner than anyone anticipates!”
