Chapter 1090: Chapter 1064: Tangyu vs. Pan Chenyu
Ye Ren conceded graciously, cupping his fists towards Tangyu and saying, “I admire you. Indeed, it is no wonder that someone who directly cultivates the Yin Yang Dao Foundation is so formidable. Although I am at the Seventh Level of the Mystic Law Realm, my Dao Foundation has always been my shortcoming. In terms of talent, I cannot compare with you. It seems that only Pan Chenyu can be your match, and I look forward to the great battle between you two.”
Hearing Ye Ren’s words, Tangyu also confirmed that it seems the most formidable this time should be Pan Chenyu, an extraordinary genius of the Pan Family, who also directly cultivates the Yin Yang Dao Foundation. Tangyu knew a bit about this situation. The Pan Family is the lineage of Pangu, the founding ancestor of the Jiuzhou Immortal Sect. It is said that the Pan Family descends from Pangu Immortal Venerate and Nuwa Immortal Venerate, though this rumor has never been confirmed, and its truth remains uncertain.
Nonetheless, the disciples of the Pan Family have always regarded themselves as the descendants of Pangu Immortal Venerate and Nuwa Immortal Venerate. Moreover, throughout generations, the great powers of the Jiuzhou Immortal Sect have been controlled by the Pan Family. From this point of view, the Pan Family is indeed very powerful.
Tangyu cupped his fist in return and said, “I merely managed to gain a slight edge. To have cultivated to the Seventh Level of the Mystic Law Realm, your talent alone is truly admirable. If you were even stronger in your Dao Foundation, you would absolutely be unparalleled.”
Ye Ren chuckled, perhaps this is heaven’s balance. He has always been trying to cultivate the fifth type of Dao, but has never succeeded. This has frustrated him greatly.
“Let’s spar again if there’s a chance in the future,” Ye Ren said. “I believe we’ll have plenty of opportunities. To fight against a master like you is truly a blessing.”
Tangyu also smiled wryly and said, “The honor is mine as well, and I believe we’ll have many chances in the future.”
Ye Ren nodded, then left. After defeating Ye Ren, Tangyu’s target was now Pan Chenyu. As for Hua Wuliang—well, if there’s a chance to battle, then so be it. For now, Tangyu’s primary target was Pan Chenyu.
This time, even before Tangyu could go looking for Pan Chenyu, Pan Chenyu had already proactively approached him. Once they met, it was like two tigers meeting in the mountains, instantly igniting intense fighting spirit.
Outside the light ball, numerous gazes also fell on this battle. By this time, more than four thousand people had been eliminated, clearly nearing the end of the second round of trials.
The three Elders, including Elder Yu, were also watching Tangyu and Pan Chenyu with great interest. Clearly, a peak duel was about to unfold between them.
Elder Yu seemed to be in a good mood, stroking his beard with a smile, “So, Elder Xiao, Elder Mo, what do you think? Ye Ren was also defeated by Tangyu, and now only Pan Chenyu is left. Both of them directly cultivate the Yin Yang Dao Foundation, with equal foundations in their realm. I think their strengths are quite evenly matched. Whom do you think will be the last one standing in this battle?”
Elder Xiao said, “Tangyu is indeed quite remarkable. To have come this far is beyond my expectations. But speaking of which, I still have more faith in Pan Chenyu. Tangyu, without advantage in Dao Foundation Realm, I don’t think he is capable of defeating Pan Chenyu. After all, Pan Chenyu is the direct descendant of the Sect Master, and it is said he has received personal guidance from him. The Sect Master favors Pan Chenyu greatly, and I’m sure his tactics are not something Tangyu can match.”
Elder Mo also nodded cautiously, “I’ve always thought that Pan Chenyu’s strength must be very strong, and he might have hidden it, so he should have a greater chance of winning. Tangyu defeating Ye Ren and Yan Huohuo is already quite impressive. However—I’m quite fond of Hua Wuliang. As a disciple trained by the Seven Eccentrics of Xiaoyao, he must not be simple. I’ve always thought he might be the biggest dark horse, with strength that doesn’t seem as simple as it appears. Maybe he has hidden his strength.”
Elder Yu nodded, “Yes, I feel the same. Anyone that the Seven Eccentrics of Xiaoyao vie to take as a disciple is certainly not simple. His carefree demeanor is a great disguise. The strength he has shown is not lesser than Yan Huohuo’s.”
Above the Nine Heavens, within the Immortal Palace.
The scruffy elder said, “Old Pan, your great-grandson is about to take the stage. Who do you think will win? Your great-grandson or this kid?”
The Sect Master Immortal casually replied, “Both are not bad, both have a chance of winning.”
The scruffy elder said, “Old Pan, don’t be so vague. Tell me who you favor.”
The Sect Master Immortal then said, “If I must say, naturally, it would be Pan Chenyu.”
The scruffy elder immediately gave the Sect Master Immortal a disdainful look and said, “I knew you would say that. After all, he’s your own great-grandson, so you’re bound to be a bit biased. Moreover, you’ve personally guided him. If he loses, you’d lose face, wouldn’t you? However—I’d like to make a bet with you. I’m more inclined to favor that kid, so why not have a little wager? A small bet adds excitement; surely, you, old bull-nose, aren’t afraid?”
The Sect Master Immortal immediately shook his head, “Don’t even think about tricking me, not in your wildest dreams. What could you possibly have to gamble with against me? Do you really think I’d fall for it? You’re the type to not give when you lose but demand when you win. Do you think I’d ever do such a losing deal?”
“If you’re afraid, just admit it, don’t make so many excuses. Just watch,” the scruffy elder said.
In the sphere of light, the battle between Tangyu and Pan Chenyu had already begun. This was also a struggle that would draw everyone’s attention, destined to be a showdown at the peak. In fact, many had already gathered to watch.
Crack—
Boom—
Both began their moves simultaneously. Both had cultivated the Yin Yang Dao Foundation and were at the sixth layer of the Mystic Law Realm. Although Tangyu had practiced the First Transformation of the Undying Nine Transformations and Divine Demon Body Refinement, he couldn’t gain any advantage against Pan Chenyu. It was evident that Pan Chenyu also cultivated formidable techniques in body refining, making his bodily strength and defense on par with Tangyu.
Pan Chenyu’s weapon, surprisingly, was also a giant axe. However, unlike Tangyu’s Pangu Axe, which had metal attributes, Pan Chenyu’s giant axe had Yin Yang attributes, making it an extremely fitting weapon for him.
Tangyu directly employed the Yin Yang Wheel. The Yin Yang Wheel wasn’t specifically crafted as a weapon, so it wasn’t as easy to wield, though it didn’t actually affect anything, just lacked that imposing aura.
Yin Yang Style and Wheel Character Seal were simultaneously unleashed. Pan Chenyu stood coldly there like a mighty warrior, raising his giant axe high, transforming into an ancient giant, intending to slash the heavens and earth open with the axe in his hand. The might of the giant axe instantly stirred the Yin Yang of the cosmos, connecting with the force of eternity. This move bore the essence of Pangu splitting heaven and earth, with the sharp edge of Yin Yang piercing through to the Nine Heavens, resembling a streak of extreme light cleaving through the boundless void.
This vast momentum made those witnessing it feel a surge of terror. The axe’s force was so terrifying it seemed as if this entire realm would be forcefully cleaved apart by this strike.
Tangyu’s brows furrowed, his face filled with solemnity. The might of this axe actually made Tangyu feel he couldn’t withstand it. Yet, he had to block it. Biting his teeth hard, Tangyu pushed the Yin Yang Style to its utmost, and the Wheel Character Seal also crazily slammed down.
“What, is this the legendary Pangu Nine Axes? Said to be the Immortal Technique created by Pangu Immortal Venerate, has Pan Chenyu actually cultivated it?”
“Terrifying, truly terrifying, this must be the Pangu Nine Axes. Even the Immortal Technique has been cultivated by Pan Chenyu. Indeed, he is a genius of this age. This time, the first place is without a doubt going to be his, Pan Chenyu’s.”
“Unbeatable, absolutely unbeatable, has the Immortal Technique really been cultivated?”
On the plaza, there was an uproar of admiration, each person filled with awe.
In the crowd, Yaomei was also a bit worried about Tangyu: “Master, Master, you can’t lose, can you? I’m waiting to rise to success with you.”
Elder Xiao approvingly nodded: “True to form, Pan Chenyu has somewhat touched upon the path of Pangu Nine Axes. Although he hasn’t yet cultivated the first axe, he has started well. Before reaching the Golden Core stage, he’ll definitely cultivate the first axe. If he can indeed cultivate the first axe, Pan Chenyu will be the first extraordinary talent to do so in the Mystic Law Realm after Pangu Immortal Venerate. No wonder, even the Sect Master values him so much; probably in the future, the Sect Master will personally guide him.”
Elder Yu also nodded: “The Pangu Nine Axes is the Immortal Technique created by Pangu Immortal Venerate, which could be said to shake the entire Cultivation World, and is one of the treasures of our Jiuzhou Immortal Sect. Through the ages, very few have successfully cultivated it. Cultivating the first axe in the Mystic Law Realm is unprecedented. Pan Chenyu might indeed create history here. It seems Tangyu is indeed in some trouble.”
“About to lose.” Elder Mo lightly shook his head.
Above the Nine Heavens, the Sect Master Immortal was evidently quite satisfied with Pan Chenyu’s performance, smiling slightly and nodding.
The shabby old man’s eyes also glinted slightly: “Yo, old Pan, in your descendants finally comes one with some promise. His talent seems even stronger than yours; indeed, full of potential. To touch upon the Pangu Nine Axes, this level of Immortal Technique, as a youngster in the Mystic Law Realm, is truly remarkable. Good, good, but—I still think that youngster won’t lose.”
“Oh, you’re so sure?” the Sect Master Immortal asked.
The shabby old man grinned: “How about it, want to make a bet? You can bet now, dare to join?”
The Sect Master Immortal raised his eyebrows slightly, but ultimately shook his head: “You sly old fox, don’t hope to make me bet with you; I’ve been tricked by you twice, if I lose a third time, I can’t hold onto my dignity.”
“Don’t say that, only twice, not much. Besides, you might not necessarily lose this time, right? Saying thus proves your lack of confidence in that youngster. When it comes down to it, still afraid, right? If you truly believe in him, why worry about me taking advantage of you?” The shabby old man continued to provoke the Sect Master Immortal.
