Suddenly, Pei Xuanjing’s eyes flickered slightly and he chuckled, “Is this how you always keep your comings and goings a mystery, Zhao?”

Pei Xuanjing was not at all surprised by Zhao Baiyang’s appearance. During their fight yesterday, he had already sensed the energy of several exceptionally powerful Martial Artists concealed in the crowd.

Even though these people had managed to disguise themselves, when Pei

Xuanjing was duelling with the old Master, their energy inevitably leaked. Despite being fleeting, both Pei Xuanjing and the old Master were able to capture it.

He had originally thought that Zhao Baiyang had left with the other Martial Artists. He did not expect him to still be on the mountain, peeking at him.

“Ha haha ha!” Zhao Baiyang appeared tens of feet away. Thought he had hidden himself well, he was easily exposed by Pei Xuanjing.

However, even if his stealth was exposed, he didn’t care, and laughingly said,

“Your performance yesterday was so dazzling, Pei. It made me envious!”

Before witnessing the battle, Zhao Baiyang thought highly of Pei Xuanjing’s strength but did not think Pei Xuanjing was a match for the old Master.

The strength that Pei Xuanjing exhibited yesterday, without a doubt, showed

Zhao Baiyang what “Give respect to a man who has lain down for three days!”

The strength of the other party far exceeded his imagination, it exceeded him and equal to the old Master’s strength.

Pei Xuanjing remained indifferent to this, his eyes flashing with a different color, and he softly said, “Aren’t you afraid that I might keep you here?”

As he spoke, his previously gentle demeanor completely disappeared, his momentum gradually rising, locking his energy onto Zhao Baiyang, showing signs of a possible conflict.

“Huh?” Zhao Baiyang also couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows, unsure whether Pei Xuanjing was serious or joking.

After all, the current Pei Xuanjing was not the same as before; he really might have the ability to keep him here and so he became vigilant.

However, despite his wariness, this was not the time to show fear. With an exaggerated swagger, Zhao Baiyang spoke, “If you’re interested, I wouldn’t mind sparring with you, so I can experience the techniques of the future’s number one.”

Despite the proclamation of an even match from Yu Yangzi’s yesterday, it still caused a huge ripple.

Looking at them again, one having lived for over two hundred years, was gradually declining, and the other one, just past thirty, was rising like the sun. Speaking of who would be more formidable in the future, there is no need to say more.

Thus, after yesterday, many took to using the title of future’s number one as a compliment to Pei Xuanjing. Their intent to form an alliance was obvious and undisguised.

Pei Xuanjing looked at Zhao Baiyang with a nonchalant smile. “Since you’re interested, then it’s only natural that I shouldn’t refuse.”

His momentum continually rose; his wrist moved slowly but steadily. The Innate Thunder Gang Qi circulated inside his body. A purple and green thunder light gathered in his palm, and a chilling aura began to emanate from him.

Zhao Baiyang’s eyes narrowed slightly, his hands hanging behind him slowly lowered, his fingers flexing, vibrant energy flowing around him, creating visible ripples around his body.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…

On top of the peak, the storm intensified; a big fight was imminent.DisCover 𝒖pdated novels on n(o)v/elbin(.)co𝒎

“Cough, cough…”

The voice came before the person.

From afar, came the coughing voice of the old Master from everhead slowly came, “Do you two want to ruin this mountain peak that I use for meditation?”

A figure descended in the middle of the two. The gentle aura separated the their wildly fluctuating True Qi.

Seeing the old Master’s appearance, the two quickly stopped their techniques.

“The Master is joking.” Pei Xuanjing said with a smile.

This mountain peak is originally the old Master’s cultivation site, and today it was merely lent to Pei Xuanjing for use.

“Pay my respects to the Master!” Zhao Baiyang cupped his fist towards the old Master and saluted.

The old Master glanced at the two, and cheerfully said, “Could you two give me some face and stop the duel today?”

Pei Xuanjing never had the intention of starting a fight and chuckled, “When the Master speaks, how can one not comply?”

“Guests follow their host’s lead; we’re under the Master’s command.”

Zhao Baiyang came here today to tell Pei Xuanjing something and didn’t have the intention to fight with Pei Xuanjing. Since the Master made his intentions clear, he wouldn’t go against it.

The conflict was resolved, the old Master then made a suggestion to discuss cultivation and compare notes. Pei Xuanjing was fine with that; he had originally intended to discuss cultivation with the old Master, to validate his learning.

Thinking of the Martial Studies followed by the Maitreya Sect Leader, he couldn’t help but smile at the corners of his mouth, showing no signs of refusal.

Zhao Baiyang eyes flashed with pleasant surprise. He had not expected to encounter such good fortune when he came today. Naturally, he was willing to participate and wanted to discuss cultivation with these two, who were arguably the best in the world of martial arts.

The three of them each chose a giant rock to sit on, forming a triangle.

The old Master spoke first with a smile on his face, he asked Pei Xuanjing, “I am assuming that you entered the Unity of Heaven and Man realm yesterday, weren’t you?

“Correct!” Pei Xuanjing nodded.

Unity of Heaven and Man!

Intense envy flashed in Zhao Baiyang’s eyes. He hadn’t imagined that the grand battle yesterday would offer such an opportunity to enter the legendary Unity of Heaven and Man realm.

Seeing Zhao Baiyang’s envy, the two did not elaborate further on the matter.

With a light sigh, the old Master said, “I recall my relentless cultivation for two hundred years to reach the peak of Martial Arts. Only then did I understand the bitterness of our forefathers. Knowing that there is a future, but being bound by heaven and earth and unable to move forward, is truly unfortunate and regretful. ”

Sometimes, what is most regrettable is not being unable to see the future.

The most regrettable thing is that you can clearly feel or see the future, but due to the constraints of heaven and earth, you can never move forward. In the end, you can only watch, that’s absolutely regrettable.

Since the Tang Dynasty, one can’t count the number of individuals with extraordinary talents who end up sitting in despair. How regrettable indeed!

Pei Xuanjing hasn’t been cultivating for long, he is constantly improving and doesn’t have a deep understanding of this.

On the other hand, Zhao Baiyang nodded slightly as he could relate to the feeling.

Before the world changed, although transitioning from Mortal Realm to Spirit Realm was challenging for a Martial Artist, it was not truly nine deaths and one life; otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many cultivators.

At his level, he had also felt the restraints of heaven and earth. If it weren’t for these restraints, given his talent, he would have already stepped into the Spirit Realm.

Over the years, Zhao Baiyang has been continuously collecting fragments of the White Lotus Sect to find his way.

No one wants to stand still forever, especially with the temptation of immortality.

“Today, I am bold enough to follow the ancient sages and invite you both to sit and discuss the way. Discuss without considering grudges, right or wrong. Only cultivation and the pursuit of the way will be discussed. I wonder who amongst you would like to start?” the old Master said slowly.

Pei Xuanjing and Zhao Baiyang glanced at each other, and instantly made a decision.

Zhao Baiyang gave a hearty laugh, “Today I’ve had the good fortune to discuss the way with both of you.. Why don’t I start by laying the first brick?”
