Chapter 556: The Great Divine Power – Wang Chongyang

Knives, lightning, and bars crashed down on the two floors of the apartment where Kai Xin lived. Kai Xin wasn’t sure of the details, but from Yin Hu’s words, it seemed his capabilities had improved again, evolving further toward professionalism.
At first, Kai Xin thought it unnecessary, but Yin Hu said such preparations were always useful—best if not needed, but in case someone tried something, their abilities would give them a chance to react.
In the end, Kai Xin allowed three people to fiddle around nearby. Rather than seeing them as extra bodyguards, it was more like having three friends by his residence—let them do as they wished. With a resigned attitude, Kai Xin ate something and returned to the game to continue fighting.
The Dragon and Tiger Arena had reached its final moments. Zhang Sanfeng stepped down voluntarily while facing Zhang Wuji; Xiao Feng defeated Linghu Chong but was then defeated by Zhang Wuji…
“I didn’t expect it to be Zhang Wuji, the leader of the Ming Sect, who would become the martial arts champion in the end.”
“Quanzhen Sect, Wang Chongyang—please grant us your guidance, Master Zhang!” A loud voice resounded across the Dragon and Tiger Arena as Kai Xin returned to the game. He raised an eyebrow, surprised by another extraordinary figure appearing.
“Wang Chongyang has arrived too.”
Kai Xin frowned inwardly. Among the Five Great Masters of the Central Plains—The Eastern Evil, The Western Poison, The Southern Emperor, The Northern Beggar, and The Great Divine Power—Wang Chongyang was the strongest. It was unexpected that he too would appear at this martial arts assembly.
Although Zhang Wuji possessed the seventh level of Qiankun Da Nuoyi and the supreme skill Nine Yang Divine Skill, along with Taiji Skill, his opponents this time were quite tough.
Wang Chongyang practiced the equally extraordinary skill—Xianqian Gong!
This Taoist skill could transform acquired abilities into innate ones, gathering essence, spirit, and energy while absorbing the forces of heaven and earth to strengthen oneself. Its potential was limitless; its attacks were invisible, capable of easily damaging one’s vital organs.
Moreover, he was also the owner of the Nine Yin Manual!
This version of the Nine Yin Manual wasn’t the quick-learning version obtained by Zhou Zhiruo. Back then, the entire martial arts world fought over it, with even the Five Great Masters getting involved. After years of bloodshed, it finally fell into Wang Chongyang’s hands.
It could be said that Wang Chongyang was clearly stronger than Zhang Wuji.
Even Kai Xin couldn’t determine Wang Chongyang’s realm.
But just by watching Wang Chongyang move, effortlessly putting Zhang Wuji at a disadvantage, and seeing Zhang Wuji’s handsome face turn red as he activated the Nine Yang Divine Skill, it was clear that Wang Chongyang was already a level above him.

But as the founder of the Quanzhen Sect, Wang Chongyang also did not wish to easily harm Zhang Wuji, hoping only that the latter would back down in the face of difficulty. The two fought for over a hundred moves in no time. Just as it seemed Zhang Wuji was about to lose, suddenly shrill sounds of bowls ringing as a warning came from outside Hero Villa. The master of Hero Villa and masters from various sects all paled in alarm. “What’s going on?” Master Yue shouted angrily. Soon, replies from the masters of Hero Villa came from beyond the city walls: “Masters from the Tianmo Sect are attacking! Master!! They’ve crossed the moat—there’s an emergency in the north!” “What!” Master Yue was furious. “These damned demons! As expected, they don’t want this martial arts conference to proceed smoothly…” “This isn’t the time to talk about this. Since the masters of the Tianmo Sect have arrived early and all our top fighters are here, let’s meet them head-on!” “Exactly!” “I really want to see who these people from the Tianmo Sect are. With all the top martial artists in the world gathered here, they still dare to break in…” Masters from various sects drew their swords, declaring their intent to fight against the demonic sect! On the fighting platform, Wang Chongyang and Zhang Wuji had stopped fighting to restore their inner energy. “Hahaha…” Just as the masters near the Dragon and Tiger Fighting Platform declared their readiness to fight, a wild and unrestrained laugh resounded powerfully above the platform: “It’s perfect that all of you self-proclaimed upright people are here. This saves us the trouble of searching everywhere. Today, everyone of you will stay here.” His voice was like thunder, causing Happy and the others to feel their vital energy shaken so severely that they couldn’t gather it at all. They also felt an oppressive weight on their shoulders, as if crushed by a mountain, making it hard to breathe. Even martial arts masters like Miss Murong showed unusual expressions at his words. Wang Chongyang stepped forward. “You have quite the bold claim!” His voice was clear and rang through the sky. The martial artists near the Dragon and Tiger Fighting Platform felt a sense of relief, as the inexplicable pressure dissipated greatly, allowing them to regain their mobility. However, this scene already alerted Happy. Someone who dared to speak so arrogantly in front of so many top martial artists was likely one of the few old demons in the martial world. Could it be that one of them was among them this time? In his past life, Happy wasn’t afraid of NPCs because he could grasp some of their movements through the plot, but only a few were difficult to understand or control… “Which member of the Tianmo Sect are you? May I know your name?”

As he spoke, Wang Chongyang turned his gaze toward Master Kongxiang, the abbot of Shaolin. The latter understood immediately and shook his head. “When Lao Na left, he specifically ordered someone to watch over Punishment Peak—no one will come down from there.”
“Punishment Peak? That idiot monk? His strength is decent, but his mind is rusty. Despite having extraordinary skills, he’s willing to spend the rest of his life on that lonely peak. Hmph!”
A wild and unrestrained voice rang out again; it seemed the speaker had heard Kongxiang’s bell-like voice.
“If it’s not him, then the five old demons of the Heavenly Demon Sect don’t possess your strength. Please show yourself!”
Meanwhile, shouts of battle came from all sides of the Heroic Villa, with chaos steadily advancing toward the Dragon and Tiger Arena. It seemed all four city gates were under attack and had already fallen.
“Wasting time on dead people!”
Just as the Heroic Villa ordered people to go rescue them, a cold, charming voice, laced with authority, rang out: “Attack!”
As soon as the words faded, the sound of countless arrow feathers slicing through the air arose like a swarm of locusts. A rain of arrows filled the sky outside the Dragon and Tiger Arena, with a fierce whistling sound that clearly indicated they weren’t shot from ordinary strong bows.
Yet, such tactics posed no challenge to the masters of the various sects!
Those who could enter the Dragon and Tiger Arena were by no means ordinary people.
Facing the arrow rain, their expressions remained unchanged.
On the Dragon and Tiger Arena, Zhang Wuji raised his hands, and the arrows nearby instantly changed direction with a rustling sound. Drawn together by the Great Heaven and Earth Shift, they formed a huge “hedgehog”!
Wang Chongyang was even more remarkable! Facing countless arrows alone, he merely snorted coldly. The air in front of him trembled violently, shattering countless arrows, which then fell to the ground in a clatter.
Although the masters of the various sects below the arena seemed slightly inferior, protecting themselves and their disciples was effortless for them!
The group of players, from the sudden upheaval to the abrupt end of the martial arts conference, were struggling to keep up.
But with so many masters here, they weren’t worried about anything happening…
Only Happy’s expression suddenly became extremely serious after hearing that cold, charming, yet authoritative female voice!
The Yin Gui Sect, the Yin Queen—Zhu Yuyan!
