Yi Jiuzhou struck the Roaring Sovereign in less than a second, but the process of the Roaring Sovereign being knocked back and falling lasted for over ten seconds.
The Roaring Sovereign had already fainted in the sky, and as it flew through the air, a large amount of blood scattered around. When the wind blew, it formed a mist of blood.
The entire venue was silent; even Xu Feng was stunned, and Su Ji couldn't believe it no matter what.
No one believed that Yi Jiuzhou, who had just come out of seclusion, could knock back one of the Three Statues of Wuwei Academy with a single move. They didn't even see how he made his move.
One strike to finish it off; the Three Statues of Wuwei Academy seemed too worthless.
It felt like a hundred years had passed before the sound of the Roaring Sovereign crashing into Mountain Valley finally reached them.
In the Mountain Valley of Brokeback Mountain, after Broken Backer, they welcomed their second guest: the Roaring Sovereign.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
Bailu Mountain erupted with deafening roars, and all the disciples couldn't help but shout in excitement.
This was incredible; Koukou Group finally produced an Expert who could knock back someone at the Late Stage of Great Achievement. This was something unimaginable that had come to life right before their eyes.
Han Lei opened the formation gate, and all members of Koukou Group rushed out, flying into the sky and surrounding Su Ji tightly. It was clear to everyone that as soon as Yi Jiuzhou made a slight move, this head of the First Academy would become the third guest of Brokeback Mountain.
Su Ji seemed to foresee this outcome. At this critical moment, the demeanor of the head of the First Academy was revealed; he remained calm and composed.
Yi Jiuzhou raised his hand again, pointing at Su Ji.
The Late Stage of Great Achievement cultivator, who had once looked down on others, now appeared before Yi Jiuzhou like a fragile ant. With just a slight movement from Yi Jiuzhou, he could be reduced to a puddle of flesh.
Hundreds of eyes were fixed on Yi Jiuzhou's finger, watching how he would crush the head of the First Academy.
"Wait."
Xu Feng spoke up. He had to intervene; if he delayed even a moment longer, Yi Jiuzhou would unleash his astonishing strike.
"You all go back, I need to talk to him."
What? Go back?
The disciples looked at Xu Feng in confusion, while Lu Zhongxiang had already drawn his sword.
At a time when the oppressed were rising, they should have pressed their advantage, yet the Group Leader actually wanted them to retreat?
The first to respond was Yi Jiuzhou. He lowered his terrifying hand, obeying Xu Feng's command, and turned to walk back.
Gao Jingsong shot a furious glance at Su Ji and led everyone down towards Bailu Mountain.
Halfway through their flight, Yi Jiuzhou suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at Sky, and said, "If you dare to make a move, I will kill you."
Everyone was startled and followed Yi Jiuzhou's gaze, only to see a yellow cloud hovering far on the western side of Bailu Mountain.
Upon hearing Yi Jiuzhou's words, the cloud suddenly transformed from a mere cloud into a hand. It flicked its fingers, and a gray-white energy sliced through the air, shooting down rapidly.
Yi Jiuzhou's eyes involuntarily narrowed.
Xu Feng didn't have time to think; he drew his bow and shot an arrow. The Golden Snake Bow was used for the first time, firing three arrows in a triangular formation towards the incoming energy.
"Hmph!" A cold snort came from within the cloud.
The three arrows clashed with the energy but failed to block it even slightly; the gray-white energy continued its trajectory towards Yi Jiuzhou.
Yi Jiuzhou raised his right hand, about to draw his symbol, when he noticed another energy coming from a different direction in the distance. This energy was green with hints of purple and sliced horizontally through the air, accurately striking the previous energy.
With a muffled sound, the two energies collided in Sky's vicinity, bursting into a dazzling display.
Two voices immediately followed.
"With countless waters flowing, let the juniors handle their own matters."
"If it were Nongxingdi trapped, you would act the same way."
"Self-inflicted humiliation is different from being humiliated by the enemy. Su Ji's current situation is also related to your indulgence."
"...Hmph!"
The yellow giant hand fell silent for a moment before transforming into a stream of light and vanishing.
Similarly, in an inconspicuous corner, an old man also disappeared into thin air.
Two great powerhouses!
The members of Koukou Group felt a lingering fear, even beads of sweat appeared on Yi Jiuzhou's forehead. Xu Feng exchanged glances with others, and they all retreated back into the Mountain Guardian Formation.
Su Ji remained silent; the previous conversation pierced his heart like a needle. Self-inflicted humiliation? I fought desperately for Wuwei Academy, only to end up in such disgrace?
Xu Feng secretly felt fortunate that he hadn't attacked Su Ji. If Su Ji were injured, Wan Shui Liu would definitely not let it go easily and might annihilate Koukou Group on the spot.
Xu Feng also considered that killing Su Ji would provoke Wuwei Academy's Transcending Tribulation experts, but he didn't expect Wan Shui Liu had already followed them.
In Power King's memory, he had never seen Wan Shui Liu; he only knew of this person.
Wuwei Academy has three Transcending Tribulation experts, the most among the Xian Dao Ten Schools. Other sects only have one Transcendence Period expert each, which is one of the important reasons for Wuwei Academy's top ranking. In terms of Great Perfection Stage cultivators, Wuwei Academy cannot compare to Shennong Valley in quantity, nor can it match Light Rain Tower in quality, or Golden Stone Workshop in equipment, or Li Hua Palace in tactics.
In these thousands of years, none of Wuwei Academy's three Transcending Tribulation experts have ascended, and the Late Stage of Great Achievement cultivators below them have also failed to advance to Transcending Tribulation. This has impacted Wuwei Academy's reputation as a city of strength. To remedy this situation, Wan Shui Liu, ranked second among the three great powerhouses, instructed Su Ji to suppress various sects, hoping that while he remained stagnant, other sects would also be unable to develop.
As the dean, Su Ji found himself powerless and had to obey Wan Shui Liu's orders, committing many wrongdoings.
Xu Feng said, "Take your people and leave here. Do not return in the future. I do not wish to kill you; do not force my hand."
Su Ji was at a loss for words; the current situation was beyond his control, and nothing seemed to help.
Su Ji leaped down into the valley of Brokeback Mountain to retrieve Roaring Sovereign and returned to Zheguo.
With the crisis averted, Bailu Mountain was filled with celebration, while Yi Jiuzhou found himself overwhelmed by questions from dozens of people.
“Vice Leader, you were so cool just now, so handsome!”
“What do you mean just now? Yi Vice Leader has always been that handsome.”
“Jiuzhou, what spell did you use just now? Even cultivators at the Late Stage of Great Achievement couldn't defend against it?”
“Vice Leader, can you give me your autograph? I’m in love with you!”
In the end, it was Lin Fangxin who stepped in to diffuse the situation. “What are you all shouting about? Go back and practice. In a few days, we’ll arrange for Yi Vice Leader to give a lecture. You can ask your questions then.”
Back in the inner courtyard, Yi Jiuzhou thanked Lin Fangxin. “Thanks for helping me out.”
The three Vice Leaders were among the first disciples of Koukou Group, having met during the Liuxiang Kingdom Six Major Sects Competition, which forged a strong bond between them.
Lin Fangxin chuckled, “We’re all so familiar; no need for formalities. Besides, I helped you get rid of them because I wanted to ask you the same question.”
“…”
Everyone present was part of the core group of Koukou Group. Not only were others curious, but even Xu Feng leaned in with interest.
Yi Jiuzhou had no choice but to say, “Actually, I was just using a set of sword techniques.”
“What sword techniques?”
Yi Jiuzhou replied, “It’s the Five Pen Sword Technique that Group Leader gave me back in the day.”
"Uh," Xu Feng was taken aback; what Yi Jiuzhou was practicing was actually the Five Pen Sword Technique that Li Hongxiu had passed on to him! This sword technique was extremely peculiar, consisting of only five basic sword forms: horizontal, vertical, slanting, pulling, and folding.
When Xu Feng first saw it, he thought it was a typing method. He had a deep affection for blade techniques and was not as skilled in swordsmanship as Yi Jiuzhou, so he gave this incomprehensible Sword Manual to him. Unexpectedly, Yi Jiuzhou truly excelled and managed to comprehend such a powerful sword path from it.
Yi Jiuzhou said, "I have been in seclusion for many years to understand its mysteries. The first time I emerged from seclusion, I defeated Wu Wei's Three Types using the Five Pen Sword Technique. At that time, I only grasped its form and had not yet attained its essence. This time, I have finally mastered it and have not disgraced this extraordinary sword technique."
"Mastered it?" Everyone could only feel like banging their heads against a wall. To injure the Late Stage of Great Achievement Roaring Sovereign with just one move was merely considered 'mastery'? That was too much of a mockery; how were others supposed to live?
Xu Feng couldn't help but break into a sweat. With Yi Jiuzhou's current strength, his forty Sword Formations could no longer restrain him. Only the newly refined one hundred and fifty super Sword Formations might be able to defeat him.
With such a master stationed at Koukou Group, unless a Transcending Tribulation Stage Cultivator intervened, no one could rival him.
That evening, Gao Jingsong gave He Xunji's Zhui Ri Jian to Yi Jiuzhou.
Yi Jiuzhou had used only a hand sword to injure Roaring Sovereign; relying solely on sword intent had such great power. Zhui Ri Jian was a Medium-Grade Dao Artifact, and paired with the Five Pen Sword Technique, Xu Feng couldn't think of anyone below the Transcending Tribulation stage who could defeat Yi Jiuzhou.
After this battle, Koukou Group's reputation soared even higher. Yi Jiuzhou emerged prominently and was known alongside Xu Feng as the Immortal Path Dual Heroes. There were even envious people who referred to them as the Two Great Bandits.
Yi Jiuzhou defeated the Late Stage of Great Achievement Roaring Sovereign with one sword strike while Xu Feng easily defeated He Xunji. With both of them appearing simultaneously at Koukou Group, Zheguo secretly rearranged the immortal rankings; the Xu family squeezed into the top ten while Koukou Group surpassed Golden Stone Workshop to become sixth in Xian Dao. Mu Jianlin and Azure Cloud Pavilion both fell out of contention.
Yi Jiuzhou repelled Wuwei Academy's tenth-ranked cultivator. A mid-stage Great Perfection Stage cultivator named Luo Ding arrived at Jingcheng Auction and specifically requested to meet Yi Jiuzhou. Yi Jiuzhou then met him in the square.
Jingcheng Auction was an enterprise of Light Rain Tower, and this person was indeed a master from Light Rain Tower.
Xu Feng had heard Luo Hongyi's story from Shennong Valley. Luo Hongyi was recognized as the number one swordsman below heaven and known as the Sword God. After ascending, his descendants established Light Rain Tower and revered Luo Hongyi as their ancestor.
The swordsmanship of Light Rain Tower received true inheritance from Luo Hongyi and is also known as the number one sword technique below heaven.
Luo Ding's intention was very clear; he came to seek guidance on swordsmanship from Yi Jiuzhou.
Xu Feng did not want to offend Light Rain Tower, so he suggested that the two compete with their Divine Separation Stage strength. This way, even if there were any mishaps, it wouldn't lead to serious injuries.
The two individuals were fencing in the square, and thousands of cultivators rushed to the scene, including Qiu Wuling and Hua Wanduo.
However, the duel only lasted for three exchanges.
After the third exchange, with no clear winner, Luo Ding bowed to Yi Jiuzhou, acknowledging his swordsmanship, and then gracefully departed.
No one asked who won or lost, and Yi Jiuzhou did not bring it up again, as if the event had never occurred.
Strangely, in the following ten years, the swordsmanship of Liuxiang Kingdom advanced by leaps and bounds, as if many exceptionally skilled swordsmen had emerged overnight. These swordsmen shared a common experience: they had all witnessed the three exchanges between Luo Ding and Yi Jiuzhou at Bailu Mountain.
Yi Jiuzhou gained fame in Zheguo and had long become the number one swordsman in Liuxiang.
Yi Jiuzhou's sword shook the world, and nearly thirty experts from Koukou Group achieved great success, becoming the biggest dark horse on Xuan Continent.
Two years later, Xu Feng visited Shennong Valley and then disappeared without a trace.
