The Dazzling New Star of the Heroes of the Martial World
In the outskirts of the Martial Bamboo Divine Domain, Huangfu Mingmo fiercely battled the Demoness. As soon as the sword was drawn, the flames of war ignited. In Huangfu Mingmo's eyes, there was only Qiu Yuxia; no matter what Dreamy Beauty did, Huangfu Mingmo remained indifferent, focused solely on the fight. Seeing that her seduction had failed, Dreamy Beauty had no choice but to resort to forceful measures. The Mingfeng Qianniu Sword was unleashed again, and amidst the flickering sword shadows, the tip of the sword approached Huangfu Mingmo's side.
The Sword God, feeling a surge of pent-up anger in the Martial Bamboo Divine Domain, channeled all his hatred and fury into techniques against Dreamy Beauty. The two sides exchanged blows, neither yielding, battling with fierce intensity as clouds surged and the sun and moon dimmed. After testing each other's moves, Huangfu Mingmo took the lead and executed his famous move, One Sword Transforms into Nine Thousand. In an instant, air currents converged, and sword energy radiated directly at Dreamy Beauty. Not wanting to prolong the entanglement any further, Dreamy Beauty gripped her Qian Niu tightly, channeling energy throughout her body as Chaotic Power slowly gathered on her sword. With a powerful slash, the energy surged forth like a tsunami. The impact shook the ground and startled even spirits. Dreamy Beauty gained the upper hand; the force of Chaotic Power knocked Huangfu Mingmo to the ground. After this move, Dreamy Beauty captured Huangfu Mingmo and took him to Eighteen Floors.
Inside Drunken Red Mansion, the madam refused to let her top courtesan Ruhua attend to Premature Aging. Premature Aging was seen channeling Qigong, preparing to collapse the entire Drunken Red Mansion. The madam signaled her guards to enter; as soon as they did, they struck at Premature Aging with their staffs. At that moment, Premature Aging suddenly withdrew his Qigong and said, "If you level this place to the ground, where will I go for entertainment? Let's take it slow." After speaking, a faint aura emanated from his hands; many guards with Inner Strength were powerless against it and fell to the ground one after another. The madam was taken aback and thought: So he is a master; it seems my guards cannot handle him. I should call for that monk to deal with him.
After defeating the guards, Premature Aging ascended the stairs and reached the middle of them when Daxiong Temple Monk Tang Xuanzhuang emerged from a room upstairs and said, "Amitabha! Who is causing trouble here? Let me send him to meet Buddha and repent for his sins."
Hearing this, Premature Aging smiled and replied, "Monk, you truly know how to enjoy life. However, you cannot focus solely on your own pleasure while ignoring others; this is a public place. I want to enjoy myself just like you. What did you say? You want to send me to meet Buddha and repent? Little do you know that only those who have done wrong need to repent; have I done anything wrong today?"
Tang Xuanzhuang replied, "From your voice alone, I can tell you are an old man in your seventies or eighties. You disguised yourself here seeking pleasure which violates this establishment's rules; now you've injured many guards—this is indeed a mistake upon mistake and sin upon sin. Therefore, you must repent before Buddha."
Premature Aging responded: "Rules are shackles that bind the minds of the weak by the strong; if the weak do not follow these rules, disaster will befall them. Thus, they become even more submissive to the strong. The rules you speak of hold no power over me because these so-called rules are set for you weaklings. Moreover, I never repent before others; others must repent before me. Even Buddha himself—if he exists—would probably have to repent before me. However, this so-called Buddha is merely a group of fools clinging to a glimmer of hope in their helplessness; this self-deceiving Buddha exists only in the hearts of those who are lost in despair."
Tang Xuanzhuang said: "What nonsensical words! All fallacies! Take this!" With that, Tang Xuanzhuang activated Buddhist Qi Gong in his hands and launched a sudden attack; his energy surged up the stairs directly at Premature Aging. Premature Aging leaned aside as Tang Xuanzhuang's Buddhist Sect energy brushed past him and struck an ornament downstairs with a loud crash, shattering it into pieces. Everyone present was filled with terror; however, Premature Aging remained calm and composed. Tang Xuanzhuang's first attack failed; he summoned more Buddhist energy determined to teach a lesson to this disrespectful person.
Premature Aging warned: "Though I am humble like an empty vessel, my patience has its limits—do not push me! If you come again, hell may claim another soul." He then waved his hand to block Tang Xuanzhuang's second attack; however, its residual force was too great and caused the entire staircase to collapse. Premature Aging leaped onto the second floor with a single bound; as he moved gracefully through the air, his energy surged forth directly at Tang Xuanzhuang. When this sudden strike came rushing toward Tang Xuanzhuang like a meteor chasing the moon, it was too late for Tang Xuanzhuang to react—the energy struck him unexpectedly hard. Tang Xuanzhuang was knocked down to the first floor and spat out nearly half a liter of blood. The madam immediately ordered her servants to take Tang Xuanzhuang to Dreaming Medical Pavilion.
Premature Aging entered Ru Hua's room as desired; upon seeing such a dashing young man, Ru Hua secretly admired him. At that moment, Premature Aging stepped out of the room again and jumped down one floor directly addressing the madam: "I've lost all interest; I'll come back another day." With that said, he quickly left Drunken Red Mansion.
At Martial Arts Alliance, Years Leave No Trace unexpectedly encountered Yi Junsheng and Reverse Head. Years Leave No Trace recognized Evil Blade behind Yi Junsheng and intended to seize it. Yi Junsheng said: "Years Leave No Trace! Do you want to act like a thug? Aren't you afraid of degrading your own status?"
Years Leave No Trace: "Enough nonsense, hand over the Evil Blade for eternal life, or you will only have a dead end. You choose."
Yi Junsheng of the Wolf Tooth Club stepped forward and said, "Come on, let me see what skills you have to dare rob me." With that, he charged straight at Years Leave No Trace. Seeing this, Reverse Head also stepped in to assist Yi Junsheng. However, Years Leave No Trace was a top-notch swordsman, and Yi Junsheng and Reverse Head were simply no match for him. Without even drawing his blade, Years Leave No Trace defeated both Yi Junsheng and Reverse Head with bare hands. After teaching them a lesson, Years Leave No Trace seized the Evil Blade. At that moment, Bai Wujin was searching for the Evil Blade in the Martial Arts Alliance and happened to arrive at the scene. Upon seeing the Evil Blade in the hands of Years Leave No Trace, he launched a surprise attack.
Caught off guard by the ambush, Years Leave No Trace was struck by the force and lost grip of the Evil Blade, being sent flying several dozen feet. Bai Wujin leaped up and retrieved the Evil Blade. Yi Junsheng said, "Great! Bai Wujin! This blade has returned to its rightful owner; there’s nothing more for us here. Let’s leave." Thus, Yi Junsheng and his companion departed from the scene.
Unwilling to accept defeat, Years Leave No Trace drew his sword, preparing to fight Bai Wujin to the death. However, when he returned to where he had been struck, he found that Bai Wujin had already left. Looking around, he could find no trace of him. Years Leave No Trace said, "Damn it! I should still look for Premature Aging, first clear out the path for Eternal Years." Following this, Years Leave No Trace sheathed his sword and left the scene.
Inside Smoke and Rain, Absolute Flower, Eighteen Floors, the injured Huangfu Mingmo lay motionless in the room of Dreamy Beauty. At this moment, Dreamy Beauty was preparing to indulge with Huangfu Mingmo, slowly beginning to undress him. After a while, she planned to use her body to absorb his Inner Strength. At this point, Huangfu Mingmo was like fish on a chopping board, ready to be slaughtered. Just as Dreamy Beauty began to absorb his Inner Strength, an unexpected event occurred: Huangfu Mingmo, having anticipated this move from her, had coated his vital parts with deadly poison. As soon as they made contact, both would be poisoned simultaneously.
Originally injured, now being poisoned again made Huangfu Mingmo suffer even more. After being poisoned, Dreamy Beauty quickly dressed herself and attempted to expel the poison using her internal energy; however, no matter how hard she tried to circulate her energy, she could not expel the toxin. Laughing heartily, Huangfu Mingmo said: "Wicked world’s Demoness, I didn’t expect you’d meet your end like this. Let me tell you; this poison is called Dissolution Powder. The more you circulate your energy, the more power you consume and the deeper your poisoning becomes; the only way out is to take the antidote."
Upon hearing this, Dreamy Beauty immediately demanded the antidote from Huangfu Mingmo, but after searching through all his clothes she could not find it. She said: "Aren't you also poisoned? With one of the five great swordsmen of the martial world accompanying me down to hell, I feel somewhat comforted." Just as both were succumbing to their poison, two individuals from the Lingxie Demon Domain, namely Evil Demon Reincarnation and Demon Among Demons, came seeking revenge. The main gate of Eighteen Floors had been shattered by their Qigong, and in an instant, both appeared before Dreamy Beauty. Upon seeing her lips turn purple and her complexion darken from poison, Evil Demon Reincarnation realized that she was gravely poisoned: "It seems we arrived just in time! Today marks the end for you, Demoness." With that said, he unleashed a sinister attack towards the poisoned Dreamy Beauty.
However, how could Dreamy Beauty sit idly by? She immediately channeled her Qigong and made a desperate attempt to block it. Due to her prior poisoning, she had already lost some of her internal strength; thus her power was insufficient against that of Evil Demon Reincarnation 's attack. As a result, she spat blood all over the room—blood that was entirely black. With another strike from Demon Among Demons , she was sent flying out of Eighteen Floors . Severely injured again, she used her exceptional lightness skill to escape from the scene while Demon Among Demons pursued her relentlessly.
After escaping from Eighteen Floors , members of the Lingxie Demon Domain known as Five Great Ghosts stormed into Eighteen Floors . Many Female Guards fought fiercely in resistance as both sides engaged in a life-and-death battle. The Female Guards had numerical superiority and with Dreamy Beauty ’s exorcism formation within the building; thus Five Great Ghosts found themselves in dire straits as their situation worsened. At this moment, Golden Phantom said: "Everyone set up the Five Elements Sacrificial Killing Formation to break through!" The other four ghosts immediately summoned their respective elemental powers and initiated the formation. Suddenly five-colored lights surrounded Five Great Ghosts illuminating all of Eighteen Floors ; in an instant, beams of energy shot out—golden, woodsy green, watery blue, fiery red, and earthy brown—shattering the formation of the Female Guards while Five Great Ghosts seized their chance to escape from Eighteen Floors .
Golden Phantom remarked: "Our abilities are insufficient; we must wait for Lord Demon to arrive before we can occupy Eighteen Floors ."
Wood Spirit replied: "I didn’t expect that Dreamy Beauty would leave behind an exorcism formation inside; we almost suffered greatly because of it."
Meanwhile, Dreamy Beauty raced through the wilderness preparing to seek help from Yi Zhangzhi at Martial Bamboo Divine Domain . However, midway through her journey she encountered an obstruction from Liu Yi and Old Witch . Liu Yi declared: "She indeed possesses Chaotic Power ; we cannot let her leave alive."
"Let me end her lascivious life," said the Old Witch. After speaking, the Mianju Qigong surged forth violently. The Dreamy Beauty summoned all her Inner Strength, fighting desperately for a chance at survival. However, it was like an ant trying to shake a tree; the Dreamy Beauty suffered another severe blow, with half of her meridians severed, and her life hanging by a thread.
