Chapter 105: Chapter 101: Cleared! Rewards!

Behind the Southern Heavenly Gate.

Inside the Cosmic Light Fragments.

On Qilin Cliff.

Birds sang amid fragrant flowers under a blue sky with white clouds. An old Daoist, draped in a yellow Daoist Robe, sat cross-legged on a giant boulder. Within this Cosmic Light Fragment, he continuously repeated the contents of his scripture lecture.

Suddenly, a young man wearing a Daoist Robe appeared directly on the mountain path. He walked step by step toward the lecturing old Daoist and declared, "Master Zhang, the descendant of Chen Fuyao has come to challenge you!"

Chen Sha got straight to the point. He assumed the identity of the descendant of the "Chen Fuyao" in this story simply to avoid unnecessary words and start the challenge immediately. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ

Since he entered this old Daoist’s Chapter, over a year had passed in the outside world, yet he had still not cleared this stage. Even more than ten days ago, when he arrived brimming with confidence using the strength he gained after defeating Ancient Transformation Dragon, he finally witnessed the old Daoist’s true power in combat.

However, with over ten days of continuous challenges, he had gradually figured out all of the old Daoist’s Martial Arts.

The opponent’s Realm and Power were not much different from Chen Sha’s; both were at the First-grade Great Innate Realm. But the reason Chen Sha had not yet cleared the stage was that, aside from the Jade Emperor Tower that he had already imparted to Chen Sha, the old Daoist also possessed another heaven-shaking technique.

"So you are the descendant of an old friend?" On the stone platform, the old Daoist lowered his eyes to look at Chen Sha. A trace of emotion welled up in him as he said, "Your age, your Power... Could it be that the Great Yellow Court created by Chen Fuyao is truly that much more profound than my Jade Emperor Tower?"

Seeing that Chen Sha had already reached the same Upper Innate Realm as himself at such a young age, he could not help but suspect that after his falling out with Chen Fuyao over conflicting ideals years ago, Chen Fuyao had managed to create a peerless Divine Skill that combined the strengths of various schools without relying on his Jade Emperor Tower.

"Very well... This old Daoist would also like to see what kind of marvelous ideas the Great Yellow Court created by your master ultimately achieved!"

On Qilin Cliff, numerous Martial Artists watched as Master Zhang stood up and extended his hand in an inviting gesture. Before they could carefully turn around to examine the challenger’s face and posture...

BOOM!

Chen Sha tapped his foot and vanished from his spot. The friction against the air formed a long streak of golden aura. Carrying a tyrannical momentum that could look down upon the entire world, he arrived right in front of Zhang Daoxuan! He raised his palm high, clenched it into a fist, and smashed straight forward!

"What an excellent Fist Technique! So Chen Fuyao actually created such a Hand Seal for the Great Yellow Court!" Admiration blossomed in Zhang Daoxuan’s eyes. He could see that although Chen Sha was using a Fist Technique, its essence was a special Fist Seal.

WHOOSH!

His figure flashed forward. His large, yellow Daoist Robe resembled a cluster of evening clouds as it collided terribly with Chen Sha’s fist.

BOOM!!

A heaven-shaking shockwave erupted with the spot where the two stood as its epicenter. It transformed into a visibly surging impact force, sweeping up the astral winds, sand, and stones on top of Qilin Cliff, instantly rolling in all directions like a sandstorm!

Those who had originally been listening to the lecture on Qilin Cliff suddenly felt as if the sky was turning dark. Even a single grain of sand mixed in the airflow hitting their bodies felt like being struck by a hidden weapon. They cried out in pain and hurriedly fled into the distance!

After the two exchanged blows, their figures separated slightly on Qilin Cliff.

At this moment, Chen Sha saw the old Daoist’s hands forming the Fist Seal Finger Technique that had caused his countless failures before.

Zhang Daoxuan, having blocked Chen Sha’s strike with his surging Jade Emperor Tower Cultivation, immediately crossed and folded his hands in front of him, intertwining his middle fingers. As his knuckles shifted, they actually formed a Lotus slowly blooming in his palms!

The Ninth-Grade Lotus!!

Once this Seal Technique was formed, every muscle and trace of True Qi on the old Daoist’s body throbbed violently. This throbbing felt like the powerful force of a life being born. Every beat was like a blade of grass forcefully pushing aside the stone above it...

BOOM!

As the old Daoist took a step forward, the airflow and dust on the ground were trampled into a circular ripple. Immediately after, the circular ripple exploded, transforming into countless streams of aura that shot across the path! It looked as if giant White Lotuses were blooming and withering in an instant.

Ninth-Grade Lotus, Lotus Blooming with Every Step!

Chen Sha had previously been defeated by this seal hundreds of times in a row. Once this seal was formed, Elder Zhang transformed from an old Daoist giving a lecture into the Incarnation of some Immortal. Every strike he landed carried an irresistible, abundant force, as if his original Cultivation and strength had been forcibly elevated several times over!

This was the old Daoist who could be called the leader of the Daoist Sect’s Loose Cultivators alongside Chen Fuyao, the creator of the Great Yellow Court. Besides the Jade Emperor Tower, an Inner Power Heart Method, he also possessed this "Ninth-Grade Lotus" Martial Arts.

However, the old Daoist who had formed the Lotus Seal suddenly shrank his pupils. He saw that Chen Sha, not far away, just as he was about to approach... had actually also folded his hands together and intertwined his middle fingers, forming the "Ninth-Grade Lotus Seal." His knuckles bloomed like petals one by one...

"How could this be..." The old Daoist could not believe it. "The Ninth-Grade Lotus is the Supreme Martial Art of my Daoist Hidden Lineage. Even Chen Fuyao never learned it. How did you..."

Chen Sha did not explain, nor could he explain it to him. He simply stepped forward like the old Daoist, trampling up clouds of airflow and dust that condensed into lotus-like shapes in the air, appearing one after another. It was also Lotus Blooming with Every Step!

BOOM!

Following that, their palms and fingers collided, emitting an earth-shattering muffled boom that cracked dozens of feet of the ground on Qilin Cliff. The cracking patterns faintly resembled lotuses!

In the blink of an eye during their exchange, Chen Sha’s Fist Techniques linked together. His hands turned the seals, morphing into a dragon shape, and his arms flipped, changing from a smashing posture to a grabbing posture. The surrounding dust and gravel were blasted and vibrated by his terrifying explosive aura, flying chaotically in all directions. With him at the center, they shot out dozens of feet away to form a splashing sphere. It was an incredibly shocking sight.

Zhang Daoxuan continuously blocked several of Chen Sha’s Fist Techniques empowered by the Ninth-Grade Lotus. Finally, Chen Sha’s Fist Technique elevated once more. Building upon the foundation of the Ninth-Grade Lotus Seal, he smashed his hand into the center of his fist and explosively chopped toward the old Daoist...

BOOM!

The old Daoist looked in astonishment at the punch that had struck him. Stumbling backward endlessly, he looked up at the sky and sighed, "To think this old man would actually lose to the descendant of Chen Fuyao? I have truly lived a hundred years in vain!"

After these words were spoken, Chen Sha retracted his fist and stood in place. He watched as the old Daoist’s figure dissipated, and suddenly, the world collapsed as well.

"Congratulations, Sect Leader, for clearing Zhang Daoxuan’s first section, ’Lecturing on Qilin Cliff.’ You have unlocked Zhang Daoxuan’s second section, ’Three Religions’ Joint Ascension Chart’..."

"Because the Sect Leader has successively defeated all key figures within this scenario Realm, the clearance is successful. The dropped items are: one ’thumb ring,’ the Sect Leader token of the Daoist Hidden Lineage... one portion of Old Ghost Xu’s Forty Years of Middle Innate Power... one piece of Guu Changming’s Spirit Communication Jade... Zen Master Shede’s ’Two Thousand Words of the Divine Nun Taie on Shattering Vajra Realm’..."
