The battle on the mountaintop was imminent, and the surrounding onlookers felt their blood surge.
Lei Haoxuan sidled up to Lei Qianjun and whispered, "Second Granduncle, the arrangements are made. This time, regardless of whether Ling Feng wins or loses, he's as good as dead!"
Lei Qianjun, his mind taut with tension, had no intention of acknowledging Lei Haoxuan. He casually waved a hand, signaling that he had heard.
Meanwhile, inside Ling Feng's villa, Tang Ru stared at Yang Fei, who was driving over, with a puzzled expression.
"Why are we suddenly moving?"
Yang Fei couldn't explain the impending battle to Tang Ru and the others. He simply urged Tang Ru, Lin Siqi, and Ling Xiaoran into the car.
"Uncle Yang Fei, are we going on a trip? But where's my uncle?" Ling Xiaoran asked sweetly after hopping into the car.
Yang Fei smiled gently. "Heh, Miss Xiaoran, be a good girl. Your uncle will join us soon. One car isn't enough for everyone."
"Oh, we're going on a trip, a trip!"
Children were easily appeased, and Lin Siqi was also well-behaved, not asking any further questions. Only Tang Ru mumbled, "What's going on? We're suddenly going on a trip without any prior notice. I wonder what mischief he's up to now."
With that, Tang Ru pulled out her phone. "I'm going to call my dad. I want to see what Ling Feng is planning!"
*Crack!*
Before Tang Ru could even dial, Yang Fei suddenly lunged and snatched her phone away!
"What are you doing?"
Tang Ru turned to him, annoyed, but upon seeing Yang Fei's cold, emotionless face, she couldn't help but shudder.
"Executing orders!"
Yang Fei coldly spat out the four words.
If Tang Ru were allowed to call Tang Zhao now, wouldn't all their plans be ruined?
Yang Fei absolutely would not allow such a thing to happen!
"I really don't know what he's up to..." Tang Ru could only reluctantly get into the car.
On the summit of Baiyan Mountain, Immortal Master Zhanlong's aura surged, and as his sharp energy scattered, cracks appeared on the ground!
"What a formidable aura! The mere dissipated energy is enough to shatter stone and break metal! Truly worthy of being a Land Immortal!"
From the ridge of a side peak, a martial arts expert exclaimed.
Meanwhile, Jiang Wancheng on the side secretly shook his head. If it were just about aura, Jiang Wancheng believed he could achieve this when fully exerting himself.
This was not the basis for judging Immortal Master Zhanlong as a Land Immortal.
"The fight is about to begin. Whether he's real or fake, we'll find out on the battlefield!" Jiang Wancheng muttered to himself.
Jiang An, hearing this, immediately focused his attention.
"Ling Feng, give me your life!"
Immortal Master Zhanlong suddenly roared, and as he raised his hands in front of him, he flicked his fingers repeatedly!
*Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!*
Sounds of air being cut through filled the air, and the onlookers widened their eyes.
"What? His internal energy has solidified into substance!"
"To be able to unleash such terrifying blade energy with just finger force, it's too powerful!"
"Immortal Master Zhanlong is indeed Immortal Master Zhanlong; he has transcended the mortal realm!"
...
Amidst the crowd's exclamations, streaks of blade energy completely sealed off Ling Feng's escape routes.
Deep furrows were carved into the ground, resembling plowed fields, a testament to the terrifying power of this blade energy!
"A petty trick!"
Ling Feng sneered dismissively. He stepped forward and lightly swept his hand in front of him!
"You court death!"
Immortal Master Zhanlong looked at Ling Feng's movement, completely unable to comprehend what he was doing.
He hadn't seen any internal energy being channeled around Ling Feng. Was he going to block his blade energy with just his bare palm?
*Puff, puff!*
Suddenly, several muffled sounds were heard, like a child passing gas!
Immediately after, everyone's eyes widened in disbelief.
The fiercely charging blade energy, just half a meter in front of Ling Feng, collapsed without any warning.
It was as if there was an incredibly hard, invisible barrier in front of Ling Feng.
"How is this possible?"
Immortal Master Zhanlong exclaimed in astonishment, his entire aura scattering. He couldn't understand what was happening before him.
The vast difference in cultivation realms meant that Ling Feng's methods were naturally beyond his comprehension.
The people around were also completely stunned.
Only Jiang Wancheng on the ridge, his face flushed red, exclaimed with immense excitement, "Immortal power protecting the body! This is the true power of a True Immortal! That's right, it's absolutely correct! I've actually seen a Land Immortal!"
"Father, you... you're saying this young Ling Feng is a Land Immortal?" Jiang An asked, his face filled with surprise and unspeakable shock.
"There's no mistake!"
"Our Jiang family's ancient texts record that those who reach the Land Immortal realm can wield true immortal power to protect their bodies. They are no longer ordinary people; with every gesture, they can break through myriad martial arts!" Jiang Wancheng's emotions were more excited than ever as he suddenly stood up.
"But why is he so young?"
"Land Immortals return to simplicity! You see him looking like he's in his early twenties, but his actual age might be fifty or sixty!" Jiang Wancheng said.
"Ah?"
Jiang An's eyes widened again, still filled with disbelief.
"Jiang An, do not judge a person by their appearance! Watch closely; this battle is a rare sight in a century!" Jiang Wancheng earnestly admonished, then stopped speaking. He calmed his mind, cleared his spirit, and focused entirely on observing the battle!
The conversation between father and son was naturally heard by everyone around, and they were all utterly stunned!
Could Ling Feng truly be a Land Immortal?
Doesn't that mean the Immortal Master Zhanlong over there hasn't reached the Land Immortal realm yet?
This outcome left their thoughts in a tangled mess, filled with nothing but shock.
Lei Qianjun, seeing Ling Feng so easily break Immortal Master Zhanlong's attack, could no longer sit still. He stood up abruptly and gritted his teeth, "This is impossible!"
"Second, Second Uncle, perhaps Immortal Master Zhanlong hasn't used his full strength yet, merely testing Ling Feng's capabilities," Lei Zhengtang still held onto a sliver of hope.
Inside the temporary construction site at the foot of the mountain, in the workers' sheds, Tang Zhao and the others jumped up in excitement.
"Haha, I knew it! Mr. Ling is invincible!"
Tang Zhao laughed almost maniacally.
"That's right, we've already won!"
"Unbelievable! After today, Wuhu Group will no longer be our stumbling block!"
"Mr. Ling is our godsend! Without him, how could we possibly replace Wuhu Group! Haha, when Mr. Ling returns victorious, we must hold a banquet! We won't stop until we're drunk!"
"Haha, we won't stop until we're drunk!"
Everyone was filled with uncontainable excitement. Ling Feng's power had deeply impressed them, and his divine methods just now were etched into their souls.
On the summit of Baiyan Mountain, Immortal Master Zhanlong's failed attack caused him to frown, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
He could already feel the powerful aura emanating from Ling Feng, knowing that Ling Feng had at least reached the Land Immortal realm.
In the war zones, this would be equivalent to a War God!
He said with disbelief, "This is impossible! I, this old man, have cultivated for decades and still cannot break through to Land Immortal. How can you, a mere youth... possess true immortal power?"
Ling Feng smiled indifferently. "That's because you're too trash!"
