Chapter 103-104: Powerful Physical Physique

an City, and disregard the lives of one hundred thousand people.Zhao Fang asked himself.He couldn't accept it very well.Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!“Lord Zhao, take some t...As soon as the words were spoken.

Zhong Shanrong looked at the person in front of him, and a sudden strong warning flashed in his heart.

Afterimage!

Had he not been acutely perceptive, he would not have noticed that the figure standing in place had at some point become a mere shadow.

The next moment.

Zhong Shanrong turned around directly.

Then, a golden fist came into view.

"Well done!"

He showed no fear, and threw a punch just like before.

Under the divine power...

The golden fist, like a collapsing mountain, contained terrifying power.

Boom--

>

Two forces collide.

The golden divine power shattered.

>

Zhong Shanrong only felt a terrifying force coming at him, causing his right fist to crack and bleed.

"Why is your flesh so strong!"

As he was knocked back by that surge of power, his eyes showed an undeniable shock.

That punch just now.

Although he didn't use his full power, he was still beyond the capability of a mid-stage Divine Realm expert to contend with.

To my surprise,

Under such immense power, not only did it fail to harm the opponent, but it actually shattered its own skin from the force.

Such physical strength left the veteran disciple in shock.

>

With a punch that shattered his opponent's skin, Shen Changqing unleashed another powerful palm strike. The terrifying force erupted suddenly.

"There are still many things you can't imagine."

And then he fell silent.

The powerful fist was already close at hand.

This time.

Zhong Shanrong was already prepared, and no longer held any slighting thoughts. His entire body's strength condensed, and with an immensely powerful palm strike, he shattered the void.

Boom!

The golden palm strike collided.

Shen Changqing's body trembled slightly. When his palm force shattered, a terrifying force swept in.

However.

This force, though formidable.

But it only caused his physical body to tremble slightly, with faint cracks appearing that vanished completely within a breath.

Upon seeing this.

Shen Changqing's eyes flashed with a sharp gleam.

The five-layered fleshly body of the Celestial Grotto was stronger than he had expected.

But that's okay.

The stronger one's physical body, the greater one's chances of winning.

“Then I shall see, whether your flesh is strong, or my divine power is more mighty!”

Seeing that his first strike had no effect, Zhong Shanrong's eyes turned as cold as ice. He concentrated his divine power on the surface of his body, causing his entire being to be enveloped in gold.

Next.

Two bodies collided directly.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Boom!!!

> On the stage.

An overwhelming surge of divine power emanated, causing the platform to tremble violently.

Zhong Shanrong truly lived up to his reputation as a powerhouse at the ninth level of the Divine Realm. His divine dao foundation was beyond comparison for ordinary cultivators, and each strike was imbued with the immense power of countless believers' faith.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

In comparison.

Shen Changqing's foundation in Shinto was indeed lacking.

However.

Although Shinto is quite different.

Yet, he was formidable in his physical strength. He could stand undefeated in the Divine Realm's mid-stage by relying solely on his physical prowess.

If combined with the profoundness of Shinto, even a late-stage god realm cultivator could have the power to fight.

Below, many disciples are all intently watching the battle on the platform.

According to their plan.

Shen Changqing should lose soon.

But not until now.

Only then did these disciples realize in astonishment that they had underestimated the other party.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“To be able to withstand a Ninth-Level God Realm with the strength of a Fifth-Level God Realm, this reputation of the Family Head of the Enemy Clan is indeed well-deserved. Although Zhong Shanrong isn't very impressive, he is considered quite strong among the Ninth-Level God Realms.”

Here is the translation of your provided text:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Interesting, really interesting!

A hint of surprise flickered across Zhong Shanhai's refined features.

Even with his arrogant personality, he couldn't help but admit that Shen Changqing was indeed a peerless genius.

If it were your own words.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Even at the fifth level of the Divine Realm, I wouldn't have been able to stand against a powerhouse at the ninth level.

Especially.

He was a ninth-rank divine realm expert, still a direct disciple of the Candle Sect.

If the other party receives clan training again, it is highly likely that they will become a top-tier existence in the future.

>

“His father was Zhōng Shān Bái Yuè, it is normal to have such talent, it's a pity that Zhōng Shān Bái Yuè failed to ascend to the position of Shen Wang back then, but who knows if he can surpass his father!”

Someone nearby, a close disciple who had heard the words, spoke with a slightly sour tone.

Shen Changqing's displayed depth and potential made most of his direct disciples jealous.

Upon hearing this.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Zhong Shan Kong Zhou calmly glanced at the other person.

A simple glance sent a chill down the heart of the disciple, who dared not utter another word.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Also a direct disciple.

The gap is enormous.

It is quite obvious.

>

Though he was strong, compared to Zhong Shan Kong Zhou, his strength fell short by a considerable margin.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

As for the other teachings' conversations, Zhong Shanpeng ignored them. Instead, his eyes were fixed intently on the battle in the field, all his attention focused on Shen Changqing.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

“Such a powerful physique, how did he hone himself to such a state!”

In this day and age where Shinto is the mainstream, there aren't many cultivators who truly understand how to hone their physical bodies.

Meanwhile.

Those who have achieved a certain level of accomplishment in the physical realm are even rarer.

I can't speak for others.

If it were just about physical prowess, Zhong Shanpeng was confident that none of his disciples could compare to him.

But now.

Here is your translated text:

Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

He realized he was wrong.

Shen Changqing's current physical foundation is much stronger than his own.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

It is obvious.

This talent in the physical aspect was equally astonishing.

for a while.

Zhong Shanpeng was eager to try.

Unlike the practitioners of Shinto, he yearns for a good physical confrontation with other cultivators.

In the past, while there were many talented individuals within the Candle Sect, none had achieved significant accomplishments manifested in their physical bodies.

Even Kong Zhou of Zhongshan, in terms of physical body, is inferior to me.

...Up to now.

Shen Changqing's sudden appearance made Zhong Shanpeng feel as if he had finally met a worthy opponent.

That feeling made him feel highly motivated to fight.

On the rostrum.

Zhong Shanxia's eyes flickered slightly: "It's been a while since we last met, Zhong Shanqiu's progress in the physical realm is too fast. If I'm not mistaken, with his physical foundation, he has already reached an invincible position in the mid-stage of the Divine Realm."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

However, he did not, like Zhong Shanpeng, have a strong fighting spirit surge in his heart.

Let's explore the reasons behind this.

It is precisely because Shen Changqing's strength has always been too weak.

Even with a powerful physical foundation, one has not reached the level comparable to the later stages of the Divine Realm.

Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!

And his cultivation in the Taoist way was also only at the middle stage of the Divine Realm, even inferior to the progress of his physical body by a few points.

Overall strength.

Although it is able to fight with the gods of the ninth heaven.

But in front of a powerhouse who can cleave through a demigod with his sword, this strength is actually nothing.

Hearing Zhong Shan Xia's words, the other elders all had different expressions.

Originally, they were a bit resentful that Shen Changqing had suddenly been given a spot.

After seeing the opponent's actual strength, that bit of dissatisfaction had almost completely dissipated.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Although the other party does not act according to rules.

But if one possesses such talent, then perhaps it wouldn't be a problem to take a shortcut.

> From a different perspective.

Even if Shen Changqing lost this battle, they would rather give the spot to him than Zhong Shanrong.

After all.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Zhong Shanrong, as a ninth-tier Divine Realm cultivator, failed to suppress a fifth-tier Divine Realm cultivator immediately. Moreover, in the battle so far, he has not gained any advantage.

Here, although it is because Shen Changqing's strength is too strong.

But whatever.

This should help! Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate.

In their eyes, Zhong Shanrong had already disgraced the Ninth Heaven of the Divine Realm.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Even if he were a genius himself, in the presence of Shen Changqing, his brilliance would be dimmed.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

However.

>

Not all elders think that way.

>

Among the many elders, there was also the master of Zhong Shanrong.

"Hmph, no matter how strong one's physical body is, in the end, all creatures across the heavens and worlds are judged by their actual strength, not their innate potential. A talent that cannot grow, how can they be considered a true genius."

Back then, wasn't Zhongshan a genius too But so what Now all that's left is his name.

And that fame won't last long either!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

After the words fell.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Zhong Shanren shook his head slightly: "Elder Ji, your words are wrong. Although the myriad races of the heavens prioritize strength, my Zhongshan clan does not lack resources, it only lacks truly talented individuals worth cultivating."

Though Zhong Shan Bai Yue fell, he did kill a god king.

Even a single Mount Zhongshan's defeat is significant, then what if there are ten Even if we stop at the level below the Divine King, it would significantly increase our clan's strength.

And among so many geniuses, if even one succeeds in proving the way, then all the previous efforts are insignificant.

Upon hearing this.

Zhong Shan Ji looked at the other party, his face was not very pleasant: "Second Elder, when did you become so optimistic about Zhong Shan Chou"

He can remember.

The other party has never looked kindly upon Zhongshan, although they wouldn't go out of their way to cause trouble. They also wouldn't speak up for him when necessary.

Last time the statue of Zhong Shan's vengeance god collapsed, he was the first to come out and try to seize its original believers for himself.

But now.

It's only been a short while.

So, he changed his tune.

“Master Ji, don't forget that we both ultimately belong to the Zhongshan clan. When it comes to matters of right and wrong, we should be clear. Zhongshan Chou's potential now is something our Zhongshan clan has never seen in ten thousand years.”

His growth would benefit the entire clan.

Zhong Shanren shook his head slightly, his expression still calm.

That's right.

He didn't hold much regard for Zhong Shanqiu before, but ever since the latter grasped the Essence of Time, his opinion completely changed.

Such a powerful individual, placed in any clan, would be a valuable asset worthy of focused cultivation.

If one were to oppose it, that would be tantamount to betraying their own race.

What is more important.

Zhong Shanren still understood very clearly.

And —

He cast a fleeting glance at Zhong Shan Dong Xuan, who was standing in the center.

This divine king.

As for that disciple whom he also valued highly,

From the fact that he directly intervened in the void battlefield, intercepting Emperor Tushan Tian, it can be seen.

Moreover.

The killings of several Divine Kings before this were largely to avenge the incident where Zhong Shan Ba Yue was besieged and killed.

Five hundred years ago, the fall of that genius. Though the other party didn't say anything, they actually always kept it in their heart.

Love your house, love its sparrow.

...and Shen Changqing's extraordinary talent that he displayed.

It is perfectly understandable that Zhong Shan Dong Xuan would value him highly.

Within the clan.

The most important thing is that the God-King values it.

If one is favored by the Divine King and possesses great potential, then the possibility of becoming powerful in the future greatly increases.

As for what happened five hundred years ago —

Zhong Shanren shook his head secretly.

Things from that year.

It may not necessarily reappear again.

Right now, the God Summoning Platform of Zhongzhou has reappeared. All creatures from the myriad heavens are focusing their attention on the God Summoning Platform. Very few truly pay attention to the Zhongshan clan.

Besides.

The peerless genius of a clan is nothing more than that of the clan itself.

Given the current situation with the emergence of the Divine Platform, it is not certain that other races will intervene.

The worst-case scenario.

>

Those who were formerly enemies of the Zhōngshān clan will likely make a move.

But with the current Zhongshan clan, there is some confidence in dealing with it.

Let me know if you have more text you'd like translated!

So.

In his view.

At this point, it was already unnecessary to secretly target Shen Changqing's words.

This principle, Zhong Shanren believes that Zhong Shanji should also be able to understand.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!

The only difference is.

Zhong Shanrong is the disciple of the other party.

It's understandable to feel resentful when someone takes away a family member's position, especially something as important as Zhong Shanrong's clan name.

The stage is set.

The battle between the two is still ongoing.

Zhongshan Rong's background is profound, needless to say. But in comparison, Shen Changqing is not much weaker.

The physical foundation perfectly complements the shortcomings in the spiritual aspect.

The two complement each other, and the power they exert is truly formidable.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Bang——

Another collision of forces.

After Zhongshan's retirement, his icy face was covered by a golden divine light.

With a single punch, he unleashed an attack. In the void, a towering phantom instantly materialized, and boundless power descended from the heavens.

Boom!

The power is vast and surging.

When that towering figure threw a punch, the two fists merged into one, and a shockingly powerful blow was born.

Second Rank Divine Ability!

Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Vast Desolate Ancient Fist!

>

"Death!"

Zhong Shanrong's eyes were as cold as ice.

Although he didn't bring the Desolate Ancient Fist to its perfected state, it had reached the level of divine ability sevenfold. The essence of this divine ability was already mastered by him.

This punch!

Even at the tenth heaven, there is a possibility of suppression.

"The Second Rank Divine Ability, Primal Chaos Ancient Fist, I didn't expect that Zhong Shanrong had already cultivated this Divine Ability to such a level. If he is given some more time, it is possible that he might even achieve complete mastery!"

Zhong Shanhai's eyes flickered.

Second-rank divine ability!

Those who are taught by personal transmission, they are all considered top-tier.

Among all celestial races, divine abilities are not uncommon, but those of the top three ranks are quite precious.

Second-Rank Divine Ability.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

needless to say.

Besides.

Gaining supernatural powers is one thing, but being able to hone them to a high level is another.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

With his keen eyesight, he could tell that Zhong Shanrong had already brought the Great Desolate Ancient Fist to an extremely profound level. It wasn't perfect, but it was close.

That's possible.

In internal transmission, it is considered rare.

On the elder's seat.

Zhong Shan Ji's face broke into a relieved smile: "Not bad, not bad. I didn't expect Zhong Shan Rong to be able to cultivate the Da Huang Ancient Fist to the seventh realm. Just with this punch, it has the power to suppress ordinary gods at the tenth level."

In his view.

As soon as Zhong Shanrong made this move, Shen Changqing had no way to resist.

When he spoke, the words fell silent.

Elder Zhong Shan, the Fourth Elder, nodded slightly: "The Great Wilderness Ancient Fist is considered top-tier among second-rank divine abilities. Back when the Great Wilderness God King was in the Divine Realm, he relied on this divine ability to directly suppress a Heaven and Earth God King."

If a disciple could truly comprehend the profound mysteries of the Great Wilderness Ancient Fist, they wouldn't simply replicate the path of the Great Wilderness Divine King. Even an ordinary divine realm wouldn't be able to withstand them.

By comparison, Zhong Shanqiu's depth of knowledge was ultimately superficial.

The ancient Fist of the Great Wilderness emerges.

He didn't think Shen Changqing had a chance of resisting.

Fifth Heaven of the Divine Realm.

It has always been the fifth level of the Divine Realm.

To be able to contend with an average God Realm Ninth Heaven expert is already astonishing. As for wanting to defeat them, the possibility is not high.

Especially Zhong Shanrong mastered the Great Desolate Ancient Fist, his strength was much stronger than that of ordinary God Realm Nine.

That's all I have to say on that.

>

Zhong Shan turned his head and looked at Zhong Shan Dong Xuan.

Shen Changqing has made it clear that if he loses, he will voluntarily give up his spot.

As for their own Sect Leader, it was clear that they wanted to cultivate the other.

If Shen Changqing truly fails, what will he do then

Is it about forcefully placing the quota on Shen Changqing, or adding an extra quota, or completely giving up on him and letting Zhong Shanrong take his place

I've given it some thought.

He thinks the second possibility is more likely.

After all, the Zhuzong also values its reputation. Shen Changqing's initial involvement was already inappropriate, and now that he has lost, if he continues to occupy a place in Zhongshan Rong's quota, it would be completely unacceptable.

The same.

A genius who can contend with a Ninth Stage Divine Realm cultivator at the Fifth Stage Divine Realm, the sect couldn't possibly not cultivate them.

The only remaining possibility is to create one more position.

But—

Every additional quota is equivalent to the clan having to provide one more resource.

The reason why Zhuzong limits the number of participants to ten is largely due to resource constraints.

Don't look at the large clan, as if adding one more quota or subtracting one has no significant impact.

But it should be clear.

So-called full cultivation is not that simple.

The resources consumed are even more difficult to imagine.

However.

Given Shen Changqing's potential, it wouldn't be a big problem for the clan to create an extra spot for him.

On stage.

Its towering figure stood aloft, its falling fist shaking the heavens and earth.

Shen Changqing stood motionless, watching as the fist fell, his body already revealing a shadowy silhouette.

The red snake's body twisted and turned.

Golden eyes, like the presence of divinity, shimmered with profound and mystical ripples.

God-like innate talent and supernatural powers!

The eye of time!

Within the realm of my vision, I see time relentlessly flowing. All things, before the passage of time, wither and decay.

Even that earth-shattering punch, under the wear of time, would also gradually diminish and dissipate.

"Oh no!"

Zhong Shanrong's face changed drastically.

He almost forgot.

The opponent wasn't just an ordinary disciple; they possessed divine abilities and supernatural powers at the level of a celestial master, an unparalleled genius.

The eye of time!

That was the terrible power of time touched.

Even a powerful technique like the Second Rank Divine Ability, Great Wilderness Ancient Fist, would directly decay and vanish upon touching the mysteries of time.

In an instant.

Zhong Shanrong also appeared with a shadowy figure illuminated by candlelight.

Fortunately, the spatial formation within the arena was large enough, otherwise, there would be no way to accommodate the two figures that resembled mountains.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The candle shadow stretched out.

Her eyes closed shut.

Moment.

Darkness descends.

On the vast stage, where Zhong Shanrong stood, darkness enveloped him, as if trying to devour everything. Where Shen Changqing stood, endless light rose, like the sun rising in the east.

Hello world!

", you would give me: "Hello world!".

While in the eyes of other disciples.

The stage was completely occupied by darkness and light.

The two sides were at odds, their powers incompatible and engaged in a fierce struggle.

“The Eye of Time!”

"The Abyss of Darkness!"

Zhong Shanren looked at the darkness and light in the field, his eyes solemn.

In a sense.

The two talents are both interconnected and opposed to each other.

...and on the next level.

Touching the eyes of time, empowered by the strength of ages, surpasses even the darkness of the abyss.

However—

The competition of innate abilities isn't just about one's foundation, but also about how well one masters those innate abilities.

"Zhong Shan Rong entered the candlelight sect a thousand years ago, his mastery of the Abyss of Darkness surpasses that of ordinary first-grade divine abilities. Though he hasn't truly reached the level of a God King, he is still not to be underestimated."

Though Zhōng Shānchóu’s eyes of time are powerful, unfortunately, his understanding of it is limited.

Here is the translation of your text:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Moreover, its foundation was a bit too shallow. Compared to Zhong Shanrong, there was still a considerable gap. In this competition of heavenly talents and divine abilities between the two, it's hard to say who is stronger!

This is a simple example.

On the Elder's seat, Zhong Shanling, who had been paying close attention to the battle in the arena, suddenly spoke.

Speaking, he regretfully shook his head.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The last incident with Bai Yuzong made her view Shen Changqing very favorably.

So.

Deep down, I also hope that the other party can win.

Although the eye of time is powerful, Zhong Shanrong's abyss of darkness is no weaker.

To truly want to crush others with innate talent and supernatural abilities, the difficulty is not ordinary.

Upon hearing this.

Although the other elders did not speak, they slightly nodded their heads in acknowledgment of what had been said.

Just take a look.

A majestic voice echoed into their ears, yet it was Zhong Shan Dongxuan, who had always been silent, who spoke.

Upon seeing this.

These elders all solemnized their faces, and no longer spoke.

As for the disciples in the stands, they were all intently watching the competition on the stage.

For the eye of time.

This should be followed by the content you want translated. For example: I will then translate "Please translate this sentence into English.

It is a beautiful day today." to:"Please translate this sentence into English.

It is a beautiful day today."Let me know what you'd like me to translate!

They had only heard rumors, and many had never actually seen them.

Now that the legendary divine powers are within reach, it would be a shame to miss out.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

On the stage.

Time is constantly battling with darkness.

The power of time washes away, seeking to purify all darkness in the world.

>

However.

The darkness before me was like the root of darkness itself, and no matter how much time washed over it, it could never truly be broken apart.

Scene —

For a time, things came to a standstill.

"If we delay any longer, there's bound to be trouble!"

Shen Changqing's face was expressionless, the divine fire in his識海 (spiritual sea) was gradually dimming.

Even at the fifth level of the Divine Realm, the consumption of a god-level innate ability was unsustainable for long.

If he could reach the sixth or seventh level of the Divine Realm, he wouldn't fear a battle of attrition against Zhong Shanrong.

But the problem is.

He is not at the sixth or seventh level of the Divine Realm, he has only just entered the fifth level.

Therefore.

If you keep procrastinating, the first one to run out of power will be yourself.

As soon as I thought of this.

Shen Changqing had no hesitation anymore. With his serpentine body wrapped in the infinite power of time, he smashed fiercely into the darkness. The overwhelming force caused the darkness to tremble.

>

Next.

He struck out with a palm strike.

In the space of a palm, there seems to be an infinite power encompassing the entire universe. Even the source of darkness, before this power, can only crumble and shatter inch by inch.can the shackles of humanity confine oneselfNo matter how much Shen Xu refused to believe it, the facts before his eyes clearly told him that the other party could indeed use a human-made chain to res...
