"Marquis Cheng!"
Cheng Fei's expression changed drastically as he tried to rush onto the arena to check the situation. However, the life-and-death arena was protected by a powerful barrier, designed to prevent disrespectful old fogeys from interfering. Cheng Fei couldn't get close to the arena; he could only watch with a tense expression as Cheng Hou was cleaved in two from head to toe.
Surprisingly, Cheng Hou wasn't dead despite being split in half. The spilled blood, red and vibrant, wriggled like countless ants, forming a bridge connecting the two halves of his body.
"This is… the Undying Seal?" The Enforcement Elder's expression shifted, his tone filled with doubt.
Undying Seal?
"Eldest Senior Sister, how did Cheng Hou learn this secret technique that was lost in ancient times?" Li Qin asked, her face slightly changed, turning to Lu Chengfeng.
Before Lu Chengfeng could answer, Cheng Fei erupted in wild laughter.
"Hahaha, the Undying Seal, it's actually the Undying Seal! My Hou'er has the potential to become an immortal, my Hou'er has the potential to become an immortal, hahaha…"
Cheng Fei laughed like a madman who had lost his mind, but no one mocked him. Instead, they looked at Cheng Hou, who was healing in the arena, with different eyes. In just a few breaths, Cheng Hou's two halves had merged back together, even his severed arm was restored as if he had never been injured.
The Undying Seal, in Luzhou, one of the nine great states of the Ziyang Great World, was surrounded by endless legends.
There were countless versions of the legend, but the most interesting one was this: In ancient times, there was an unparalleled ruthless man who cultivated a magical technique. He challenged the Moon God, the master of the Moon God Palace, at the peak of the Immortal King realm.
The Moon God was an Immortal Venerable, and an Immortal King was no different from an ordinary person in front of an Immortal Venerable, even a peak Immortal King. However, that ruthless man fought the Moon God for hundreds of years before finally being killed by the Moon God.
Although he was defeated, it could be said that he lost with honor. The Moon God even personally hailed him as the number one person below the Immortal Venerable.
The reason that ruthless man was so strong was because he had cultivated the Undying Seal.
Whether he created the Undying Seal himself or obtained it from somewhere else was unknown, but from then on, the Undying Seal became a legend. Countless predecessors and sages wanted to obtain the Undying Seal, but all their efforts were in vain.
Did Cheng Hou really obtain the inheritance of the Undying Seal? Where did he get it from?
The spectators were all filled with doubts.
At this moment, Lu Chengfeng answered Yu Shui's question.
"It should be from the secret realm that appeared five hundred years ago. The sect hasn't even finished exploring the periphery of that secret realm, its origins are very significant. Cheng Hou's Undying Seal might have been obtained from that secret realm."
Lu Chengfeng said slowly.
"His luck is that good?" Li Qin said in disbelief.
"Luck isn't something that can be seen as directly as character, but if that's the case, isn't the girl's situation very dangerous?" A trace of worry flashed across Li Qin's face. Although she had great faith in Gu Huaiyu's strength, the legend of the Undying Seal was too exaggerated, and she couldn't help but feel worried.
"Don't worry, Sister with the Knife isn't so easy to lose." At this time, Yun Shuang, wearing a veil, appeared beside Lu Chengfeng. Only she would call Gu Huaiyu Sister with the Knife.
The female disciples of Lihun Peak looked at Yun Shuang's figure. Even though they saw it often, they were always envious. Her chest was like two watermelons; which woman wouldn't be envious?
"Yun Shuang, do you know something?" Lu Chengfeng heard the hidden meaning in Yun Shuang's words and asked.
"Watch first," Yun Shuang said with a smile.
Lu Chengfeng nodded.
In the arena, Gu Huaiyu was also curiously staring at Cheng Hou. She had lived in the Tianxuan Sword Sect for thousands of years and naturally knew the legend of the Undying Seal. Now, seeing Cheng Hou being split in half by her and still being able to recover, she was very surprised. Even the vitality of a Saint King or Great Saint wasn't this tenacious, right?
At this time, Cheng Hou's body had completely recovered. His face was gloomy, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent as he looked at Gu Huaiyu, saying in a cold voice, "Three moves have passed, and now it's your death!"
"Three moves have passed? Why does it count if you took the initiative to attack me just now?" Gu Huaiyu scoffed.
"You…"
"Hou'er, no need to talk nonsense with her. In a life-and-death battle, strength is paramount. The winner lives, the loser dies. Kill her quickly!"
Before Cheng Hou could speak, Cheng Fei, who was watching the battle, reminded him. He could see that in terms of words, ten Cheng Hous were no match for Gu Huaiyu.
"That old thing is right, you talk too much nonsense," Gu Huaiyu said, following Cheng Fei's words.
Cheng Fei's face darkened. This stinky girl, he would tear her mouth apart sooner or later.
Cheng Hou finally stopped talking nonsense. He held his Saint Weapon battle blade, staring coldly at Gu Huaiyu.
"Bang!"
Cheng Hou moved, his body turning into a blur. Then, the light of the blade enveloped the entire arena.
The power of heaven and earth continued to condense. At this moment, Cheng Hou used his full strength from the start; he didn't want to give Gu Huaiyu any chance.
Gu Huaiyu's eyes narrowed, and she instinctively raised her blade horizontally in front of her chest.
"Boom!"
The two blades collided, erupting in an incomparably terrifying energy ripple. Gu Huaiyu was forced back several feet by a powerful force, but Cheng Hou didn't move at all.
"Drink!"
Cheng Hou swung his blade, the light of the blade crisscrossing!
Gu Huaiyu also swung an earth-shattering blade, but her blade light was purple. The direction she was standing in was also the east of the heavens and earth, with a hint of the charm of purple energy coming from the east.
"Rumble!"
Two incomparably powerful blade lights clashed between the two, erupting in intense purple light.
Cheng Hou's eyes narrowed. The purple light was too strong, making his eyes feel uncomfortable.
"Watch the blade, Overlord Dragon!"
At this time, Cheng Hou heard Gu Huaiyu's cold shout. He couldn't help but recall the way he had been split in two by the dragon blade energy before. His heart was startled, and he immediately held his battle blade in front of him, fully adopting a defensive posture.
However, what appeared in the purple light was not a blade, but a fist entwined with purple energy. Because Cheng Hou's vision was filled with purple light, the purple energy was hidden in the purple light, and he didn't notice this fist at all. By the time he came back to his senses, the fist had already smashed into his chest.
"Boom!"
Cheng Hou only felt his chest cave in, and his heart was shattered by this powerful force.
"Ah!"
Cheng Hou screamed in pain, his entire body flying out, slamming heavily into the barrier of the arena, and then bouncing back to the ground, spitting out blood.
Cheng Hou was seriously injured, but he didn't die. He endured the pain, raised his head, and stared fixedly at Gu Huaiyu. He said in a hoarse voice, "You are shameless!"
Gu Huaiyu chuckled and said, "Who told you that someone who practices the blade can't fight with their fists? You wouldn't naively think that I would use whatever moves I say, would you? You've lived for more than two thousand years, and your IQ isn't even as good as our Lihun Peak's Ah Huang."
"Pfft!"
The people of Lihun Peak and some people who knew Ah Huang's identity couldn't help but laugh.
Ah Huang was a dog raised by a disciple of Lihun Peak.
"You…" Cheng Hou was furious, and it was clear that he also knew what Ah Huang was.
Although Cheng Hou's heart was shattered, he possessed the Undying Seal secret technique, and it only took him a few breaths to recover, his momentum undiminished. This allowed the spectators to once again directly feel the power of the Undying Seal.
However, the stronger the Undying Seal was, the more it showed that Cheng Hou was trash.
Possessing such a powerful secret technique, he was repeatedly dealt fatal injuries by someone a major realm below him. What was this if not trash?
In Cheng Hou's case, the crowd didn't experience the essence of the saying "All are ants beneath a Saint."
Seeing Cheng Hou jumping around again, Gu Huaiyu was helpless, but now she had taken a fancy to the Undying Seal secret technique. So she said, "Hey, let's discuss something."
"What?" Cheng Hou frowned.
"Tell me how to cultivate the Undying Seal, and I won't kill you later, I'll just cripple your cultivation, how about that?" Gu Huaiyu said with an expression that she was giving him a great deal.
"You… you are humiliating me!" Cheng Hou was furious, his aura fluctuating unsteadily.
"How is letting you live humiliating you?" Gu Huaiyu frowned, not understanding why Cheng Hou would have such a big reaction. Wasn't living good? She had worked very hard to live back then.
"Go to hell!"
Cheng Hou swung his blade at Gu Huaiyu.
Gu Huaiyu was helpless and shouted, "Watch the blade, Overlord Dragon!"
"Hmph, don't think you can trick me again!" Cheng Hou didn't dodge or defend, his blade intent even stronger.
"Aowu!"
But the next moment, a hundred-foot-long divine dragon suddenly appeared, domineeringly and rudely splitting him in half again.
But soon, Cheng Hou recovered again. He looked at Gu Huaiyu in exasperation and said, "You are too shameless."
"I'm shameless? You say I'm shameless when I change moves, and you say I'm shameless when I don't change moves. You wouldn't be thinking of letting me stand here and let you cut me, would you? You idiot!"
Gu Huaiyu looked at him with contempt, then she shouted again, "Watch the fist!"
Cheng Hou raised his blade to block, but was once again knocked back by a ghostly fist.
"Watch the blade, World-shocking!"
A flash of blade light passed, and Cheng Hou was split in two, but he quickly recovered again.
"Watch the blade, Overlord Dragon!"
……
"Watch the blade, Drawing Sword Technique!"
……
"Watch the fist!"
