The Favored Son of Heaven

Bogut, lifting Ma Juntie a hundred meters away with one hand, watched the fight between the younger generation martial artist and the older generation martial artist quietly.

At a hundred feet up in the air, the two met without speaking. But their aura of power clashed with each other, giving the impression of two prehistoric beasts looking at each other.

Many Sacred Martial Hall martial artists craned their necks, looking at this strange scene in the sky in shock. To their surprise, the previous miracle martial artist of the Sacred Martial Hall was challenging Wu Zun today! He had done something that younger martial artists of God know how many generations were not able to do it over these many years!

Facing the strongest martial artist of the Sacred Martial Hall, the super expert who had his own unique energy, surged vigorous aura energy out his body continuously, causing his body to shake ever so slightly. Suddenly, he took a step forward in the sky.

The Six Stars of the Sacred Martial Artists’ eyes twitched simultaneously at the sight of Qin Fen taking this step; after all, no one noticed any precursor to Qin Fen’s movements. All they saw was that the air underneath Qin Fen’s feet and behind him compressed and burst all of a sudden; Qin Fen had bolted to Wu Zun already.

In a flash, Qin Fen’s joints crackled as his muscles bulged again and again. Suddenly, his body grew taller and stronger than Bogut. His figure stretched horizontally and vertically, covering Wu Zun’s line of sight completely like dark clouds covering the sky, giving the impression that the sky was about to collapse.

“Fast! Fierce! Murderous!” Bogut praised in his heart. All his energy was focused in his eyes for the fear of missing a single thing in their exchange. When his eyes focused, he saw Qin Fen’s fist that was like a thick steel column of a pile driver, smashing towards Wu Zun’s slender body.

Investiture of Gods! Qin Fen was quite clear that his tricks tantamount to nothing in front of this top super expert. It was better to go all out from the start! His feet trod the sky like he was walking on the ground as the surrounding air was compressed. Suddenly, the strength exerted by the step of Dragon Canon caused the compressed air to burst, propelling him with the force of ten dragons and elephants. He was like a dragon god roaming in the sky.

Just as the rock-like air under his feet burst, he twisted and hurled his waist at the same time. The true energy seeped into his blood and marrow as his blood vessels conjoined with his heartbeat like a drum, giving the impression that hundreds of thousands of troops were about to launch a sneak attack, like tens of millions lightning were writhing in the clouds.

At the same moment, he craned his neck and puffed his chest like a God descending to the mortal world. His back rose and fell non-stop like waves, issuing sounds and strength like the acceleration of gears.

As soon as Qin Fen made his move, he pushed the Investiture of Gods to its peak since its creation -ten dragons and ten elephants, heavenly dragon folding the body, coupled with Thunder Steps, the Dragon Cannon burst with unprecedented explosive force.

BANG BANG BANG BANG…

Qin Fen’s one attack was like hundreds of artillery shells whistling through the air. The air in the sky stirred and shot all over the place the moment he raised his arm. Whereas Wu Zun, who was standing as still and as proudly as before, had his unique ‘I-am-the-sky’ aura of power swept clean by the storm in an instant.

After Qin Fen raised his martial strength to a great extent, the Investiture of Gods had reached an incredible level. The unprecedented blow broke the balance between both sides’ aura of power, unleashing an unstoppable mighty force.

Wu Zun’s firmament energy mixed with his martial dao created a feeling of uniqueness when both sides’ aura of power was evenly matched, but his world was shattered to pieces by Qin Fen’s purest violence at this moment.

God, what’s that? Devil, what’s that? They are just powerful creatures imagined by human beings who can summon the rain and call the winds. They are worshipped by the people. But are the people worshiping gods or devils? No! The people are worshiping gods and devils’ power!

What power is it? Is it the power that will benefit mankind? No! The humans worshiped nothing but the violence of gods and devils. They prayed for the blessing of gods and devils but in fact, they were praying more for the gods and devils not to destroy them.

Gods and devils were actually the purest representatives of violence! Their superiority wasn’t because of their benevolence or anything. To put it bluntly, the reason why they were high and aloof was because of one thing, and that was their unparalleled violence in the eyes of human beings.

If the gods and devils lost their power to destroy mankind but still retained their abilities to summon the rain and call the wind which could benefit mankind, humans would not worship them. Rather, they would enslave the gods and devils like cattle and horses.

In the special training of the figure of light, Qin Fen understood that one must believe in himself instead of than believing in power. He also understood that the essence of gods and devils’ way was extravagant profits. They had absolute violence! The essence of one’s martial dao was not to be superior or as boundless as heavens, it was violence!

The discovery of martial arts was not to strengthen one’s health or to serve people with virtue! Martial arts were created for the sake of killing the enemy! Martial arts were a special medium to bring violence to its utmost limit!

Violence! Smash! Crush! Destroy! This was the true essence of Godly Fists! To destroy the enemy in front of us in the most violent way was the way of the Godly Fists.

So what if it’s the firmament? So what if it’s the heavenly dao? I will use violence to destroy them all!

BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG…

In the face of Qin Fen’s violent attack, Wu Zun’s sword-like eyebrows twisted together into a solemn look that was rarely seen on Wu Zun’s face. He craned his neck as his eyes burst with sharp glare!

Qin Fen’s Investiture of Gods took the meaning of violence to a whole new level. Destroy the enemy and his momentum with violence!

The moment Wu Zun stiffened his neck, the firmament energy filled every inch of his body. His spacious martial suit suddenly seemed to inflate, flapping and vibrating as it bulged again and again. Although his body didn’t grow, his aura of power gave the impression his figure expanded rapidly in an instant!

Hundreds of streams of firmament energy shot out of his acupoints like a rain of arrows shot in every direction, making the turbulent airflow caused by Qin Fen’s Investiture of Gods even more turbulent. He raised his left elbow back like a spear taking on the challenge, resisting the Qin Fen’s mighty punch.

BOOM!

With a deafening blast equivalent to a hundred thousand TNT blast, a ring of air blast visible to the naked eye spread outwards with the two at the center. Bogut was left with no choice but to hit the oncoming ring with full force using Nuclear Fusion Fist. Yet he flipped several times in the air from the impact of this shock wave.

In the eyes of the outsiders, Qin Fen’s punch was able to break the moon into pieces. Nevertheless, his punch was taken by Wu Zun with a single elbow!

Their super nano battle suits were torn to pieces in an instant but they recovered to their original condition just as instantly, as if they weren’t damaged at all.

“This is the firmament energy that’s on par with Qilin!? The super-strong expert of the Sacred Martial Hall!?”

Qin Fen wasn’t surprised that his Investiture of Gods could not take down Wu Zun, rather, he admired him even more so. If any of the Six Stars of the Sacred Martial Hall had taken this punch, he was a hundred percent sure that he would have smashed them into nothing! Unless they dodged it, they would have died then and there for sure! Even biochemical beast fusion would not have saved them!

Having resisted the Investiture of Gods with his elbow stance, Wu Zun rolled his elbow, hurling a spiral force at the Investiture of Gods. Immediately after, he closed the distance while his left hand formed a hammer, smashing towards Qin Fen’s head!

Simple, direct, and without any fancy move, not even a feint. Wu Zun also knew that his feint would not be as effective as his direct move against someone as strong as Qin Fen.

In the blink of an eye, all the cells in Qin Fen’s body were excited! His trip to Earth this time wasn’t to show off his martial strength to the Six Stars of the Sacred Martial Hall; his real goal was to seek the strongest expert and test his strength against them. At the same time, see if he could push himself ahead using other’s experience.

Master hadn’t made any explanatory speeches on martial dao. All he could do was fumble and advance. Qin Fen knew that the Master did this for his own good.

Although fighting with Master and others in the spiritual space was exciting, it was always lacking real life and death. Qin Fen needed this feeling, and this feeling could only be found in reality.

The moment Wu Zun’s left hand moved a little, Qin Fen felt his own bright world suddenly turn dark!

Firmament Energy! This was Wu Zun’s so-called Firmament Energy! This was a kind of qualitative change that had almost reached the point of mystery. The moment he made his move, it gave the opponent the feeling of facing the starry sky, an endless starry sky that only God knew where it ended.

“So thrilling!” In between life and death, Qin Fen felt his heart pounding in excitement, uncontrollable excitement.

Qin Fen withdrew his right fist halfway and brought it down immediately! Holding his forearm straight downwards, he brandished his arm towards his head with his elbow as the point. In the next moment, the feeling of darkness disappeared into thin air as if the huge curtain of the black sky was torn by this elbow in a flash.

Qin Fen’s elbow smashed straight into Wu Zun’s left-hand hammer and hauled his left hand that was hiding by his waist upwards, punching the perfect upper hook in boxing!

Wu Zun brought his hammer downwards as he lifted his right leg knee and made a horizontal sweep, slamming it towards Qin Fen’s uppercut! Close combat, Neo Muay Thai’s Tiger Style Knee Kick!

Qin Fen immediately pulled his left fist inwards and downwards, turning it into a knife-hand strike, cutting it towards Wu Zun’s thigh!

The corner of Wu Zun’s eyebrows rose as an ‘oh’ escaped from his lips. Meanwhile, he adjusted his knee angle slightly, kicking it towards Qin Fen’s knife-hand strike. Their strength pushed both sides’ respective attack back but none of them planned on retreating, even a bit. Both of them used the close combat techniques in their arsenal, one after another, competing in speed and fierceness of their martial skills.

For a moment, the Sacred Martial Hall martial artists on the ground covered their ears. The corresponding shockwaves were too much to bear.

Bogut’s eyes widened as he shook his head vigorously. He wanted to see each of their moves but he discovered that he was unable to understand all of them. Often, he needed to think for a thousandth of a second when he saw a move in a fight, only then could he understand what was the purpose of that move.

In just a few seconds, the intense and stormy fight in the air suddenly came to an end.

Qin Fen retreated a hundred meters away as his enlarged body returned to normal. The super nano battle suit on his body didn’t seem to have suffered any damage. No one knew what happened between the two. The only certain thing was that Qin Fen might have lost, but he had not lost as miserably as the Six Stars had lost in Qin Fen’s hands.

“Very good.” Wu Zun stretched his neck and looked up at the sky, a smile on his face. “I haven’t been so happy in a long time. You are better than I thought. Let’s go to Qilin then.”

It’s over!? Everyone looked at Qin Fen who flew away without even looking back, puzzled. Everyone was rooted in their places for a moment, stunned. After that fierce roar, the Sacred Martial Hall turned silent, leaving everyone looking at each other.
