Chapter 107: Chapter 105: Human-Beast Unity

In a confrontation between two Sects, every victory and defeat was critical. It wasn’t just about the one hundred thousand Top-grade Spirit Stones; the Sect’s reputation and honor were also on the line.

This was especially true for the Void Sect. They were fighting on their home turf, and if they were to be so easily defeated by the Wolf Fang Sect, word would spread and they would become the laughingstock of the world, their reputation in tatters.

"Wake the little ones in seclusion. That man, Zhang Shao, is full of tricks. He never fights a battle he isn’t certain he can win. The three he’s brought with him are anything but simple."

Yun Xuzi dared not be careless and decided to have the Core Disciples handle it.

Soon, five young people—four men and one woman—walked into the great hall of the main peak, their faces etched with displeasure.

"This disciple greets the Sect Leader and the Elders."

They were the Core Disciples of the Void Sect’s younger generation, all at the Refining God Ninth Heaven Realm. They had been in secluded cultivation attempting to break through to the Purity Realm but were forcefully awakened, and they were extremely unhappy about it.

"No need for formalities." Yun Xuzi pointed to the group from the Wolf Fang Sect and continued, "I’m sure you already know why you were awakened. Go on now. Fight and show them the might of our Void Sect!"

He had great confidence in these Core Disciples. He had personally hand-picked every one of them years ago. Whether in terms of Cultivation talent or combat awareness, they were all first-rate.

The first to step out was a youth in flowing white robes named Leng Fei. He already had one foot in the Purity Realm. Despite his youth, he had been a Core Disciple for nearly a decade and was considered one of the top seeds among the Void Sect’s younger generation.

"So, you’re the three who want to challenge my Void Sect?" Leng Fei looked at the trio from the Wolf Fang Sect, his eyes filled with disdain. He waved his hand impatiently. "What a waste of time. Just come at me all at once."

As a Core Disciple, he was constantly praised and admired by other disciples and even the Elders. Combined with his own exceptional talent, he had long ago developed a personality of looking down on everyone.

No one would be happy about having their breakthrough cultivation interrupted.

So, what Leng Fei wanted most right now was to give the three disciples from the Wolf Fang Sect a savage beating.

Zhang Shao chuckled, the corners of his lips curling up into a strange smirk.

He looked at his own three disciples and said, "See that? That’s how a genius is supposed to act. Proud and overbearing! Do you see the difference between yourselves and a top disciple of the Void Sect now? Have you learned something?"

"This disciple requests to fight," a youth said, kneeling on one knee before Zhang Shao.

Zhang Shao barely lifted his eyelids and chuckled, "But he said he wants to take on all three of you."

The youth’s tone was unchanging. "If I cannot defeat him within three moves, I will answer with my life!"

"Good!" Zhang Shao clapped his hands and smiled. "You said it yourself. In that case, go and experience the lofty techniques of the Void Sect’s disciple."

"As you command." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

The youth rose, gave Leng Fei an indifferent look, and crooked his finger. "Come on."

Leng Fei was furious. This person had actually proclaimed he would defeat him in three moves! He had never suffered such a humiliation!

"Fine, fine, fine! I’d like to see just how you’ll beat me in three moves!" Leng Fei laughed through his rage. Leaping into the air, he instantly split into a hundred figures that completely surrounded the Wolf Fang Sect youth and launched an attack.

Yun Xuzi nodded in satisfaction at the sight. The weight on his heart was finally lifted.

"I hadn’t expected Leng Fei to have cultivated the Illusion Body Technique to Great Success. Against anyone in the same Realm, no one can discern his true form. He’s already in an invincible position. Excellent!"

The other Elders all nodded in praise.

The Illusion Body Technique was a Martial Technique of the High Tier of Profound-Level that allowed the user to create a hundred figures to confuse an opponent.

It was a dizzying mix of illusion and reality, impossible to parse.

If one couldn’t pinpoint the true body, the user could toy with them to death.

The Wolf Fang Sect youth twitched his nose and sneered inwardly. ’Trying to use Phantom Clones against someone from the Wolf Fang Sect? Doesn’t he know how sensitive we are to scents?’

His gaze instantly locked onto one of the hundred figures.

"Found you! Now, break!"

The youth surged forward and threw a punch.

The expression on that particular figure of Leng Fei’s changed, revealing his shock.

He never expected the youth to find his true body in an instant. In his mind, he was still scheming how to use his illusions to trick him.

In his panic, he threw up his arms to defend himself.

BOOM!

The hundred figures vanished, and Leng Fei was sent flying. He stumbled back four or five steps upon landing before he could regain his footing.

The sleeves on both his arms had been blown to shreds, revealing red, swollen arms.

’Such immense power!’ The sharp pain shooting through his arms shocked Leng Fei, and he finally shed his contemptuous attitude.

That punch from the youth had nearly broken his arms!

Everyone from the Void Sect was stunned. How had the Wolf Fang Sect youth located Leng Fei’s true body? It made absolutely no sense!

Just then, Zhang Shao spoke up. "Hey, get serious. That was one move; you’ve got two left. This great disciple from the Void Sect doesn’t need you to hold back. No more testing the waters."

The youth nodded. "Rest assured, Sect Leader. I won’t hold back anymore."

The members of the Void Sect were stunned again. ’That punch was just a probe? He was holding back?’

’For real?’

"Hmph, stop your boasting! I was just careless. Again!" Feeling his pride severely provoked, Leng Fei couldn’t bear it.

He gathered his True Essence, drawing on the Power of Heaven and Earth to raise his aura to its absolute peak, and charged the youth again.

The youth held out his right index finger, bit the tip until it bled, and then quickly pressed it to the center of his brow.

"Limitless Heaven and Earth, Human-Beast Unity, activate!"

Instantly, a ray of white light flared from the center of his brow. In the next moment, to everyone’s astonishment, the youth’s body suddenly swelled and shot upward, ripping through his clothes as brown fur sprouted all over him and sharp fangs jutted from his mouth.

He had become half-man, half-beast.

A savage, ferocious aura filled the great hall, an aura that far surpassed the Refining God Realm.

"Th-this is..." Among the Void Sect’s Elder Council, Ji Lin’s expression changed dramatically. He had seen a similar scene before.

During the disciple competition for the Earth-level Spiritual Ore, in the final match, Jin Quan had demanded to activate their "final solution." The Wolf Fang Sect disciple back then had reacted just like this, merging as one with his Beast Pet, his strength soaring from the Refining God Ninth Heaven to the Purity Realm.

At the critical moment, if Liu Hui hadn’t unleashed his divine might, the Void Sect would have lost any claim to the Earth-level Spiritual Ore.

And now, the Human-Beast Unity this youth was using was clearly on a higher level and far more powerful than the one used by the disciple during the fight for the Spiritual Ore.

"This is bad! Leng Fei, concede now!" Ji Lin cried out, trying to stop the match, but it was too late.

Leng Fei, who was lunging forward for the kill, was caught in the transformed youth’s grasp.

"Domain, hold him!" Leng Fei roared. A peculiar energy burst forth from his body—the power of a Domain.

"Useless. You’ve only just stepped one foot into the Purity Realm, so all you can manifest is a Pseudo Domain," the youth rumbled. "That was the second move. And now for the third!"

The youth raised Leng Fei high, gave a fierce squeeze, and then violently slammed him into the ground.

KRAKT! BOOM...

The Pseudo Domain was squeezed until it shattered. Leng Fei coughed up a mouthful of blood, and before he could even process what was happening, he was intimately introduced to the floor.

The specially reinforced floor tiles of the great hall shattered into pieces. Leng Fei lay on the ground, his body twisted at an unnatural angle, convulsing uncontrollably. It was impossible to tell how many of his bones had been shattered, and he was clearly on his last breath.
