After finishing all this, Zhou Yan turned and quickly left the cave.
Just then, a sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside. Hearing these footsteps, Zhou Yan knew he was being tracked, so he quickened his pace and rushed into the depths of the mountain cave.
In a moment, Zhou Yan finally arrived at a vast, empty space. This was a large cave, and the surrounding walls were all inlaid with various luminous pearls, illuminating the entire cave.
And at the front of this cave, on a white stone platform about ten meters long and wide, a young man in black clothes leaned against the stone platform with his eyes closed, resting. This man had fair skin and delicate facial features. If it weren't for the two wisps of mustache remaining on his lips, he would have looked like a beautiful young woman in her late teens.
As this man sensed a slight disturbance behind him, he instantly opened his eyes, his sharp gaze fixed on the person who appeared within his sight.
"Who are you? How dare you trespass into a forbidden area."
The man let out a cold shout, and a strong killing intent erupted from his body.
"Haha, such powerful killing intent. No wonder you could cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage in such a short time. Not bad, truly not bad." Feeling the killing intent emanating from the man, Zhou Yan couldn't help but praise him.
Hearing Zhou Yan's words, the man became even more enraged. "You're seeking death!" With that, the man turned into an afterimage and in the blink of an eye, he was within three meters of Zhou Yan, then slammed his palm fiercely towards Zhou Yan's chest.
Seeing the young man attack, Zhou Yan casually extended his arm and grabbed at the man's fist.
Bang!
As their fists collided, a dull thud followed, and an incredibly violent force instantly burst forth between their fists, forming a visible wave that swept outwards.
Stumble, stumble, stumble!
At the same time, a figure quickly retreated several steps, and with each step, a deep footprint was pressed into the ground.
This figure was none other than Zhou Yan, the master of this place, and the other figure was the master of this place.
Seeing that the other person had still managed to stand his ground, the young man's face showed a hint of solemnity.
Although he had expected Zhou Yan to be strong, he hadn't anticipated him to be so strong. After simply resisting one of his moves, he was completely unharmed.
"Heh heh... indeed very good!" Zhou Yan said with a smile, looking at the man in front of him.
"Kid, who exactly are you?" the man asked coldly, looking at Zhou Yan. The previous exchange had completely ignited his fighting spirit. DaFeng Novel Network
"Haha... guess!" Zhou Yan laughed heartily towards the sky, then looked at the man meaningfully.
Hearing Zhou Yan's words, the man's expression changed, and he said coldly, "Since you refuse to tell me your name, then you shall leave your life here today."
With that, the man directly moved his claws again, lunging towards Zhou Yan.
Seeing the other party pounce again, Zhou Yan's expression also became solemn. This man's strength was indeed formidable, definitely not weaker than himself. Therefore, Zhou Yan also gave his full attention and activated the Nine Yang Scorching Heaven Technique, causing his body temperature to rise significantly. If anyone got too close, they would surely be scorched.
Rumble!
As the two collided again, a violent collision sound immediately rang out, and the terrifying aftermath shattered the cave walls.
Pfft!
Zhou Yan was once again sent flying, and then spat out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing Zhou Yan being repelled, the young man snorted coldly, his figure vanishing from the spot like lightning. In the next second, he appeared above Zhou Yan and dived down, his claws extended, aiming directly for Zhou Yan's head.
"Damn it, how despicable." Zhou Yan cursed after seeing the man's actions, then his figure shot up from the ground and he darted towards the distance.
Seeing Zhou Yan dodge, the young man's eyebrows shot up, and with a flicker of his body, he pounced again.
"Damn it, you think I'm a sick cat just because a tiger doesn't show its fangs?" Zhou Yan cursed again, then with a flick of his wrist, a cold, sharp longsword suddenly appeared in his hand.
Whoosh!
Zhou Yan swung the longsword in his hand, and it immediately whistled towards the young man with a piercing sonic boom.
Ding!
Seeing the flying longsword, the young man flicked his fingers, and several streaks of sharp energy shot out, instantly colliding with the longsword, producing a crisp sound.
Zhou Yan used the rebound force to leap out again. During this process, Zhou Yan had pushed the Nine Yang Scorching Heaven Technique to its limit. The surging fiery energy within his body churned madly, instantly enveloping Zhou Yan's body and forming a fiery red armor.
Shu!
The next moment, Zhou Yan's figure reappeared at the cave entrance, then he lifted his leg and kicked out.
This kick contained terrifying power and instantly collided with the fist kicked by the young man.
Boom!
This time, both Zhou Yan and the young man's bodies trembled, and they both retreated a step. However, Zhou Yan only retreated half a step. After all, Zhou Yan was at the peak of the seventh level of the Martial Ancestor realm, while the young man was only at the early stage of the ninth level of the Martial Master realm, the difference was too great.
"How is this possible?" The young man looked at his fist, and his expression suddenly changed. He never expected that he could only fight Zhou Yan to a draw. To know that he was a genuine Martial King realm expert!
"What's impossible about it? Heh heh... how about we make a bet?" Seeing the surprised expression on the man's face, Zhou Yan said with a smile.
Hearing Zhou Yan's words, the man looked at Zhou Yan in confusion and asked, "Bet on what?"
"If you lose, you tell me about the Profound Ice Palace. If I lose, I'll tell you my name, how about that?" Zhou Yan said playfully.
"Heh heh... you can't win. I advise you to surrender obediently, otherwise, I will kill you. If you don't believe me, try it," the man said with a cold laugh, seeing that Zhou Yan was not agreeing to his terms.
"Heh heh…" Zhou Yan let out a cold laugh upon hearing this, then shook his head and said, "Then let's see who dies first!" With that, Zhou Yan lunged forward again, his longsword slashing directly towards the young man's head.
"Hmph! Stubborn fool!" The young man snorted coldly, then quickly retreated, forming his right hand into a claw and grabbing at the descending longsword.
Clang!
A loud clang echoed, and then Zhou Yan felt a massive force transmitted through the longsword into his right arm. Zhou Yan was then directly repelled five or six steps.
"This guy's strength is terrifying. Fortunately, my weapon is a spiritual artifact, otherwise I would have been defeated just now. Such an enemy is definitely an extremely troublesome existence," Zhou Yan thought to himself, watching the young man who was closing in again.
