Seeing Cheng Sheng perform such a demonic secret technique, a glint flashed in Zhou Yu's eyes.

The Red Blood Sword in his hand was instantly withdrawn, and the next moment, the True Yuan within his body began to continuously transform into the Power Of Thunder.

In the blink of an eye, his entire body was shrouded in Thunder Light.

The Power Of Thunder naturally restrains those yin-evil spells. Seeing Cheng Sheng's demonic Qi soaring to the sky, Zhou Yu felt that the Five Thunders Technique should restrain him rightfully.

As Zhou Yu unleashed the Power Of Thunder, he immediately changed his previous fighting style, opting instead for a direct confrontation with Cheng Sheng...

In an instant, explosions echoed across several mountain peaks.

The area within a ten-kilometer radius shook violently, as if a meteor were descending from the heavens.

Meanwhile, while Zhou Yu and Cheng Sheng were battling, about fifty kilometers away from the battlefield.

On the peak of a high mountain, several figures stood there, watching the distant battle.

One among them stepped respectfully toward a man dressed in a silver robe, embroidered with a large silver sword on his body.

He spoke with some concern.

"Young Sect Leader!"

"That Cheng Sheng is a master cultivated meticulously by the Heavenly King Sea, supported by their powerful resources and foundation. It's no surprise he possesses such cultivation."

"But that Zhou Yu, for him to contend equally with Cheng Sheng, proves the rumors true—he's trouble too."

"I just don't know if they both suddenly appeared here, aiming for the secret treasure left by that peak Sword Dao master."

The man referred to as the Young Sect Leader was Jian Chen, son of the Supreme Elder of the Divine Sword Sect.

And also the next heir to the position of Sect Leader.

Jian Chen spoke indifferently:

"No matter, the sudden emergence of this secret treasure is already causing quite a stir. It's estimated that Heavenly King Sea and top forces from the Northeast Three States will all get involved."

"Although Zhou Yu's strength is impressive, compared to those people, he's insignificant."

"Now, I have a good grasp of his capabilities while he knows nothing about me."

"I am in the dark, he is in the open. Soon, I'll show them what it means for the mantis to stalk the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind."

Upon hearing this, the man instantly understood Jian Chen's intentions.

A sinister smile spread on his face.

"Young Sect Leader is wise!"

...

In another direction.

In the sky.

A figure stood, stepping into the air.

The biting cold wind above the snow-capped mountain didn't affect him in the slightest.

His figure was tall, features distinct, sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, both in stature and appearance, exuding a charismatic aura of a natural leader.

At this moment, he was silently observing the battle in the distance.

His eyes burned with a strong sense of battle.

He was Xia Houyun.

Ranked third on the Human List, the strongest among the younger generation of Heavenly King Sea.

Of course, the ranking on the Human List only reflects his past achievements; his true power remains unknown.

Xia Houyun saw Zhou Yu and Cheng Sheng's fierce battle.

He muttered to himself, evaluating them.

"Impressive Sword Domain."

"This Thunder Technique is interesting, but I can't tell if it's a real Thunder Technique or just True Qi transformed."

"Cheng Sheng's Golden Arhat Body seems to have improved significantly."

To Xia Houyun, his life revolved around one word: 'battle.'

He constantly sought to challenge the strongest among his peers, and when there were none to match him, he aimed higher.

To him, as long as he could battle, it was the most exhilarating experience.

Now, with his cultivation, there were only two or three among his peers worthy of his attention.

The winner between Zhou Yu and Cheng Sheng would become his next target.

As Xia Houyun was closely watching, he suddenly looked toward the southwest.

Instantly, he furrowed his brows.

"Something courting death!"

As soon as the words fell, and a shadow flashed by, Xia Houyun's figure vanished from its place.

...

Meanwhile, within ten kilometers of where Zhou Yu and Cheng Sheng were battling.

An elder clad in a black robe suddenly appeared.

His appearance was incredibly eerie.

Like a ghost, he revealed no trace of his presence.

Thus, neither Zhou Yu nor Cheng Sheng, locked in their fierce confrontation, noticed him at all.

However, if Zhou Yu had seen him, he would have shown a shocked expression.

For this elder was indeed Yu Fengtian, the mysterious president behind Letian Association who had once secretly opposed the Lin Family in Qinzhou.

Back then, Zhou Yu almost traversed several cities in Qinzhou, peeling layer after layer until he found Yu Fengtian and killed him.

Unexpectedly, he appeared here once again, alive.

But upon closer inspection, one would notice a terrifying depth in Yu Fengtian's eyes.

At this moment, as Yu Fengtian gazed toward the distant battlefield, a chilling light flashed in his eyes.

"It's actually this kid."

"My body holds an intense obsession against this kid, for it was killed by him back then."

"It's decided, I might as well get rid of this kid, lest he ruins things for me in the future."

As he spoke, Yu Fengtian sat cross-legged, and the next moment, a Primordial Spirit silently floated above his head, launching a fierce attack toward Zhou Yu's back...
