Chapter 513: Chapter 231: The 4 Saints of the East Sea and the Guixu Divine Technique

But Fang Shuwen wasn’t just parrying—he was doing it with only one hand.

It was as if every technique Ji Changzui unleashed was completely within his expectations.

In the midst of the flurry, he even had the leisure to reach out with his left hand and make a pulling motion toward the distant Sikong Cheng.

Sikong Cheng saw this clearly and instantly understood that this bizarre phenomenon was the work of the masked expert.

He couldn’t help but feel a surge of astonishment.

’Where in the world did this person come from?’

’His Martial Arts are unbelievably high, but his style is completely unfamiliar. He’s definitely not from the East Sea.’

’He appeared here with Luo Shuqing, so could he be an expert from the Eastern Domain?’

’But does the Eastern Domain even have an expert of this caliber?’

’Don’t tell me Luo Shuqing managed to invite the number one expert of the Eastern Domain?’

These thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning.

Sikong Cheng did not let himself be swept away by the current. Instead of allowing Fang Shuwen to pull him over, he circulated his qi and gave a slight twist of his body.

A surge of True Qi instantly enveloped his body, actually managing to partially neutralize Fang Shuwen’s North Nether Divine Technique.

At that moment, Sikong Cheng’s expression changed drastically.

"How can this be?"

Fang Shuwen let out a soft "Hm?" of his own.

Both were surprised, but Fang Shuwen was far calmer than Sikong Cheng.

Sikong Cheng, on the other hand, felt his head buzzing. His position as the Island Master of Nameless Island was not achieved through his own efforts alone.

Aside from the six great experts who supported him, the most important factor was the ultimate art he cultivated: the Guixu Divine Technique.

Earlier, when Fang Shuwen had pushed Shen Cangming away, the palm strike Sikong Cheng had unleashed was the Guixu Divine Palm from within the Guixu Divine Technique.

This technique’s power was tyrannical to the extreme, capable of returning all things to oblivion.

When Fang Shuwen used the North Nether Divine Technique to try and pull him through the air, Sikong Cheng circulated his Guixu True Qi throughout his body.

Ordinary Martial Arts True Qi would dissipate into nothing upon contact with Guixu True Qi, while the Guixu True Qi itself would remain completely unharmed.

The reason Sikong Cheng’s expression had changed so drastically was because in that split second, while Fang Shuwen’s North Nether True Qi had indeed been neutralized and vanished, a sliver of his own Guixu True Qi seemed to have been ripped away.

This should have been absolutely impossible!

The Guixu Divine Technique was one of the supreme Martial Arts in the entire East Sea, and it was Sikong Cheng’s greatest reliance.

Accumulating even a little True Qi was incredibly difficult, let alone having it stolen away by someone else?

’If he can rip away a sliver,’ he thought, ’does that mean he can rip away all of my True Qi?’

The moment he considered this, the fat on Sikong Cheng’s face began to tremble.

The terror in his heart reached its peak in an instant.

But at that very moment, with a WHOOSH, a figure arrived before him.

Sikong Cheng shot his head up. The person who had arrived was none other than Ji Changzui!

Of course, Ji Changzui hadn’t come over willingly... he had been thrown by Fang Shuwen.

Although Fang Shuwen was surprised that the Guixu Divine Technique could actually thwart his North Nether Divine Technique, he was nowhere near as shaken as Sikong Cheng.

Nevertheless, Sikong Cheng’s Martial Arts had caught his attention.

Thus, taking advantage of the window while Sikong Cheng was reeling with shock and doubt, he instantly broke through Ji Changzui’s Drunken Dream Scripture and his frenzied, demonic Saber Technique, then grabbed him and hurled him toward Sikong Cheng.

Ji Changzui was not Shen Cangming; he was the only person Sikong Cheng could rely on now.

He certainly couldn’t use the Guixu Divine Palm to counter this.

He could only press forward with both hands to catch him.

However, the immense force carried by the body still far exceeded Sikong Cheng’s expectations.

The two figures, one behind the other, were seen scraping backward across the ground, retreating uncontrollably toward the edge of the room.

Just as they were about to hit the wall, Sikong Cheng barely managed to halt their retreat. He hurriedly checked on Ji Changzui, but one look made his heart sink.

Ji Changzui... was already dead!

Fang Shuwen’s Inner Strength had used the man as a vessel. While Sikong Cheng hadn’t dared to receive it with brute force, the two opposing forces had ultimately collided repeatedly within Ji Changzui’s body.

After all that, how could he possibly have survived?

His life had been completely snuffed out in the blink of an eye.

But Sikong Cheng had no time for grief. As he looked up, he saw that Fang Shuwen had already arrived.

He curled his five fingers into a claw, aiming the Nine Yin Divine Claw straight for his head.

Sikong Cheng let out a furious roar. He no longer cared if his Guixu Divine Technique’s True Qi would be ripped away by Fang Shuwen. It was a life-or-death moment; how could he worry about such a loss now?

He unleashed his Guixu Divine Palm, meeting claw with palm.

The Palm Technique was suffused with Guixu True Qi; as long as Fang Shuwen was within its range, he should be constantly worn down by it.

But once again, things went beyond Sikong Cheng’s expectations.

Fang Shuwen changed his claw into a grip, dodged the direct path of the Guixu Divine Palm, and seized his wrist.

Logically, Fang Shuwen should have been within the range of the Guixu Divine Palm’s technique, yet he was completely unaffected. Not the slightest sign of being worn down or returned to oblivion could be seen.

Before Sikong Cheng could even cry out ’This is impossible!’, he felt a powerful force yank him forward.

The positions of the two men were instantly reversed.

Sikong Cheng froze, utterly bewildered. In the next moment, he saw Fang Shuwen’s fists raining down on him like a storm.

Fang Shuwen didn’t dare use the Sea-Shaking Divine Fist. The power of that Martial Art was too immense, and he was worried one punch might kill Sikong Cheng. There were still things he wanted to ask the man.

Therefore, what he used this time was the Great Demon Subduing Fist from the Nine Yin Scripture.

But even though it was the Great Demon Subduing Fist, when executed by Fang Shuwen, its power was on a completely different level.

Pummeled relentlessly by the flurry of fists, Sikong Cheng was forced back step by step. He could only parry, with no strength left to fight back.
