"Swipe!"

In the next moment, the Black Shadow made a fierce move, his hands like ghostly hands, attacking Lu Tianxing without any forewarning. The speed was extreme, carrying a terrifying force that could pierce through anything.

This move was overwhelming, and generally, mid-stage Mythical level practitioners wouldn’t even have a chance to retaliate before being killed outright.

Lu Tianxing immediately sensed the terrifying nature of the Black Shadow’s move, and didn’t hold back. The Sky Flipping Seal was instantly unleashed, heavily striking towards the Black Shadow’s palm.

"Bang!"

Their arms collided violently, producing a dull sound of impact that caused a piercing pain in the eardrums, unbearable to endure.

Tang Wenhu only saw a blur before their moves changed once again, their figures turned into afterimages in the air, continuously crashing into each other. The dull sounds were like a series of firecrackers exploding, echoing ceaselessly, spreading terrifying force like a tide, sweeping the surroundings, crushing everything caught in it into powder instantly.

At this moment, neither Lu Tianxing nor the Black Shadow showed any restraint, their attacks were all deadly. True Qi roared like a tide, mighty and unstoppable, not giving the opponent any chance to breathe. Even grasping a slight flaw would invite a storm of attacks, the terrifying power pervaded the air.

Even from a distance, one could clearly feel the terrifying force permeating the air.

"Bang!"

Another earth-shattering sound rang out as their attacks viciously collided again, a terrifying ring of energy swept the surroundings. The once towering red brick wall was demolished in an instant, and the originally uneven ground seemed leveled, sheared off a layer completely.

"Boom!"

This terrifying force erupted once more, causing both Lu Tianxing and the Black Shadow to uncontrollably retreat backward.

With each step they retreated, a clear footprint was left on the ground below.

"Thud!" "Thud!" "Thud!" "Thud!"

They retreated four or five steps consecutively before stopping.

In this brief confrontation, neither gained any advantage, it was evenly matched.

However, within the Black Shadow’s heart, a storm of disbelief raged. He was at the late stage of Mythical level, while Lu Tianxing was only at mid-stage. By rights, subduing Lu Tianxing should have been effortless, yet now they were evenly matched. How did Lu Tianxing cultivate to such a level? Could the answer lie in his unusual cultivation technique?

The Black Shadow’s heart was filled with shock, and Lu Tianxing’s was full of astonishment. He had faced late-stage Mythical level practitioners before, at Qin Island, against Cangwu, and knew the True Qi fluctuations at that level. The Black Shadow’s True Qi refinement was among the best of late-stage Mythical level, suggesting his cultivation technique was high-level and that he had training from a prestigious school. Otherwise, such impressive True Qi fluctuations wouldn’t be possible.

What was the identity of the Black Shadow to be associated with those plotting against him? Which power sent him, and why suddenly attack?

As for being in league with Tang Wenhu, Lu Tianxing never considered that possibility. Although the Black Shadow saved Tang Wenhu, the look in his eyes was as if seeing an ant, not like a partner. Moreover, Tang Wenhu viewed the Black Shadow with awe and fear, not the gaze of an ally.

If the Black Shadow was truly in league with Tang Wenhu, he wouldn’t wait until Chen Wuxiong and others were killed before making a move, which doesn’t align with the behavior of allies. Thus, it’s evident that the Black Shadow and Tang Wenhu have no connection, but why Tang Wenhu knows the Black Shadow and was saved by him remains unknown.

However, Lu Tianxing was not interested in these details, he only knew the Black Shadow before him was a formidable foe.

"Third Young Master of Lu Family, I must admit your strength is terrifying. You might become the undisputed number one in China within ten years, surpassing even your grandfather. You indeed have the basis for arrogance," said the Black Shadow with admiration as he looked at Lu Tianxing.

"I indeed have the basis for arrogance, but you don’t have the ability to kill me, nor can you save him," said Lu Tianxing arrogantly, gesturing towards the distant Tang Wenhu, indicating he would surely kill him and the Black Shadow couldn’t stop it.

The Black Shadow’s face turned extremely unpleasant upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s arrogant remarks again, as it was a repeated provocation to his authority. Did Lu Tianxing truly believe he couldn’t kill him?

In fact, that’s exactly what Lu Tianxing thought, despite the Black Shadow’s formidable strength, killing him was almost impossible.

"Is that so? Then let us see if I don’t have the qualification to kill you."

The Black Shadow eyed Lu Tianxing darkly, a bloodthirsty smile curved on his lips, his figure flickered as he suddenly struck out, flipping his hand to suppress Lu Tianxing with a palm, True Qi surging to enhance the palm’s power even more: "Lu Tianxing, I must admit if given another ten years, no, just five years to grow, there would be no one in this world who could harm you. But unfortunately, you don’t have the time to grow; today your fate is death."

"Fate of death? That will depend on whether you have the ability. Don’t end up dying at my hands instead."

With a cold laugh, Lu Tianxing stepped forward fiercely, True Qi arms sprouting like a crab’s from behind, imposing and empowered with thunderous force, clashed mightily against the Black Shadow’s palm.

With a tremendous bang, their feet sunk, an unimaginable power surged from their bodies into the ground, the earth rumbled like rolling thunder. Immediately, the ground around them exploded, creating a large pit several meters in diameter.

"Such terrifying power, indeed this is the strength a Mythical level should possess."

Lu Tianxing felt a terrifying shock within; the Unbeatable Emperor Fist, upon contact with the Black Shadow’s palm, seemed to strike cotton, unable to inflict any harm but instead a strong force blasted back along the True Qi arms, forcing him to step back to dissipate the Black Shadow’s True Qi.
