Several sword lights flew over, and Chu Tiange shrank his head and hid inside the chariot.

With a flying bronze war chariot, Chu Tiange was almost in absolute safety within the Secret Realm of Soldiers. In the Secret Realm of Soldiers, even Qi Sea realm experts couldn't fly, so as long as he was in the sky, Qi Sea realm Martial Cultivators couldn't threaten him.

However, given his identity as a descendant of the Chu royal family, not many people would dare to offend him, even the likes of Hei Yan and Hei Jue of the Yama Sect didn't want to provoke this young master, and avoided him fervently.

Chu Tiange looked at the items in his Storage Ring and felt a bit disappointed and discouraged. A super large Storage Ring with a capacity of a hundred cubic meters but hardly anything edible.

"Had I known, I would have brought some food in. This cursed place doesn't even have a single demonic beast."

Helplessly, he could only take out a few Golden Pattern Nourishing Yuan Pills and started eating them as snacks.

Peiyuan Pills are pills provided by powerful forces for disciples who have not yet started cultivating, to build their foundation. They can strengthen one's roots and enhance Qi Blood, with no harm to future cultivation, though overeating can lead to excessive Qi Blood, mental excitement, and insomnia.

There are ordinary Peiyuan Pills, Silver Pattern Nourishing Yuan Pills, and Golden Pattern Nourishing Yuan Pills.

Ordinary Peiyuan Pills are refined from extremely precious Spirit Medicine, with mild properties that do not harm the bodies of disciples who have not yet started cultivating, valued at 30,000 gold per pill, only accessible to great family forces.

Even in Beifeng City's Ling family, only the most core disciples have the chance to obtain one.

Silver Pattern Nourishing Yuan Pills are refined by an Alchemy Master, with more lasting effects and milder properties. The effect of strengthening roots and enhancing Qi Blood is more significant, priced higher at 100,000 gold per pill. They are simply unattainable in Beifeng City.

The Golden Pattern Nourishing Yuan Pills are a royal exclusive, not for sale. If priced, they'd be 300,000 gold per pill.

Chu Tiange tossed a 300,000-gold Golden Pattern Nourishing Yuan Pill into his mouth like candy, crunching and chewing it down. Having eaten countless pills since childhood, they barely sufficed as a belly filler.

He still craved meat more.

Lu Yu continued advancing towards the direction of Fist Valley. After traveling for most of the day, he only encountered two light specters. This area had been swept clean by others.

After all, given the large gathering of people at the Sword Abyss earlier, it made sense for the number of specters to dwindle. Once they dispersed, they likely cleared the specters they came across, leaving only one or two for Lu Yu to encounter that might have emerged later.

As Lu Yu walked, suddenly a large swarm of particles rushed towards him. Thinking he was under attack, he quickly pulled out his Ever-changing Arm Shield and Demon-Breaking Saber, preparing to defend. Unexpectedly, he had not sensed the assailant's presence beforehand.

The particles passed through Lu Yu's body, gathering at a spot only half a meter away from him, forming into a light specter gradually.

Though it seemed slow, the entire process of the specter's formation took less than half a second.

Lu Yu turned and vigilantly stared at this uniquely appearing specter. This was a Sword Cultivator specter, and upon noticing the accessories on the specter, Lu Yu was somewhat surprised to discover it was a specter from a disciple of the Five Mountains Sword Sect.

The light specter waved its hand, conjuring a great sword formed of light in its grasp. Holding the great sword, it turned to face Lu Yu, and opened with a core move of the Five Mountains Swordsmanship, concentrating the power of a mountain on its great sword.

Sensing the might of the light specter, Lu Yu showed a look of surprise. This was a specter of a Martial Cultivator at the Qi Manipulation realm, but only just having advanced to it, not a specter left by a pinnacle Qi Manipulation realm cultivator.

There are two possibilities: one, the specter's original body entered the Secret Realm of Soldiers just after advancing to the Qi Manipulation realm; another, the specter's original body broke through the realm within the Secret Realm of Soldiers, leaving the specter.

Lu Yu believed it was likely the latter since no matter how weak, the Five Mountains Sword Sect, as a major sect, wouldn't allocate a spot for a newly advanced Qi Manipulation realm disciple to enter the Secret Realm of Soldiers.

Infinite Fast Fist, Lu Yu struck randomly like a rain of fists falling on the light specter.

As the great sword descended, Lu Yu's expression changed swiftly, hurriedly using Eight Steps to Catch the Cicada, retreating rapidly.

Boom! The great sword imbued with the power of a mountain struck the ground, sending stones flying. Lu Yu casually caught three stones that flew towards him and tossed them aside.

The power of the Qi Manipulation realm Five Mountains Sword Sect disciple's specter was formidable, far surpassing a typical newly advanced Qi Manipulation realm Martial Cultivator. It was comparable in strength to a double Qi Manipulation realm cultivator.

Geniuses retain their prowess post-breakthrough, and capable geniuses can challenge beyond their level and inherently possess power surpassing typical level boundaries.

The attacking power of the Infinite Fast Fist was somewhat insufficient, unable to severely wound the Qi Manipulation realm light specter or interrupt its moves. The great sword imbued with the power of a mountain was something Lu Yu had to dodge.

Lu Yu's gaze sharpened with his momentum instantly changing, shifting from nimble and swift to heavy and forceful.

In martial arts, momentum corresponds with the characteristics of the technique. Exhibiting the appropriate momentum allows for the technique's maximum power output.

This is the advantage of having a realm eternally fixed as unparalleled—a state wherein Lu Yu can always perform Infinite Fist at its best.

Clenching his fist, he felt as if gripping the entire world, his fist heavy as the world itself. The flowing Qi Blood in his arms influenced the air, causing it to rotate slowly around Lu Yu's fist.

A second power of the mountain formed on the light specter's sword, cleaving down towards Lu Yu.

Infinite Heavy Fist! Twice the power!

Lu Yu struck the side of the great sword hard with his doubled strength, snapping the heavy sword imbued with two powers of the mountain. The power on the sword froze, ceased flowing, and with the sword's breakage, unleashed a terrifying force.

Boom! Swish swish swish~ Bang!

At a critical moment, Lu Yu only managed to place the Ever-changing Arm Shield in front of him for defense. The shield was blown off, landing unharmed, while Lu Yu's arms went numb holding the shield up. The light specter had been battered by its own two powers of the mountain.

Lu Yu shook off his numbed arms, delivering a finishing blow to the light specter and retrieved his shield. He hadn't expected the sword, carrying the power of the mountain, to explode upon its destruction, severely injuring even the one wielding it.

If not for the sturdy Ever-changing Arm Shield blocking the power's explosion, Lu Yu wouldn't have merely had numb arms.

"A weakness of the Five Mountains Swordsmanship?" Lu Yu pondered seriously. If a swordsmanship had obvious weaknesses, it was unlikely to be the core Cultivation Technique of a sect.

Thus, it could only be that the power concentrated on the sword was too great, and the freshly advanced Qi Manipulation realm disciple from the Five Mountains Sword Sect couldn't control it.

The Five Mountains Swordsmanship displayed by the Qi Manipulation realm specter, even with a single power of the mountain, was more formidable than three powers of the mountain at the Qi Cultivation realm.
