Longevity Begins with Internal Organs

Xie Tianfeng was both shocked and furious.

He was shocked by Zhao Ya’s truly formidable strength, especially the knife technique, which was incredibly elusive.

The elders under him couldn’t even withstand a single move and were injured by Zhao Ya.

He was furious because, despite being seriously injured, he was not someone a Fifth Realm Martial Artist could easily humiliate.

So he took a deep breath, channeling all the Profound Yang True Power in his dantian, and infused it separately into his hands and feet through the four opened meridians.

After that, he faced off against the charging Zhao Ya head-on.

Bang, bang, bang.

In a series of explosive sounds, palm shadows appeared like a mountain, and Xie Tianfeng pushed his flesh palms to the limit, surprisingly resisting Zhao Ya’s storm-like knife attacks.

Moreover, Xie Tianfeng’s body moved rapidly, looking for openings in Zhao Ya’s knife techniques and counterattacking.

This put great pressure on Zhao Ya.

One had to admit that Xie Tianfeng’s strength was impressive. At least without using his Breaking Realm talents, Mountain Demon Body, and Ghostly Eye, it was quite difficult for Zhao Ya to defeat him.

However, Zhao Ya was not in a hurry because time was on his side.

He didn’t believe Xie Tianfeng could maintain such a high-intensity offensive for long.

As soon as he showed signs of exhaustion, his defeat was imminent.

Sure enough.

Only after more than twenty moves, Xie Tianfeng, unable to break through Zhao Ya’s impenetrable knife defense, became enraged and shouted angrily.

"Cowardly wretch, besides ambushing and dodging, what else can you do? If you have the guts, fight me head-on."

As he spoke, the speed of his palms slowed imperceptibly.

Zhao Ya knew that he was already at the end of his strength, so he smiled slightly.

"Fine, then I’ll make you admit defeat wholeheartedly."

With those words, Zhao Ya suddenly sheathed his knife.

Xie Tianfeng was overjoyed.

The thing he feared most was Zhao Ya’s elusive knife.

Now Zhao Ya, provoked by his words, put away his knife. Wasn’t this asking for trouble?

Many people present witnessed this scene and couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

Still too young.

He abandoned his greatest strength, provoked by a few words from Xie Tianfeng.

Only Lu Dingtai and a few others knew that Zhao Ya was not someone who could be easily provoked.

He must have had his reasons for doing so.

Sure enough.

When Xie Tianfeng thought his plan had succeeded and rushed to kill Zhao Ya with a palm strike.

Zhao Ya was unperturbed, raised his hand, and threw a punch.

Boom!

Upon impact, both Zhao Ya and Xie Tianfeng retreated a few steps.

Then Zhao Ya smiled at the bewildered Xie Tianfeng, "Did you really think I couldn’t handle you without the knife?"

After saying this, he unleashed another punch.

Xie Tianfeng was filled with shock.

He never thought that Zhao Ya was not only outstanding in knife techniques, but also possessed astonishing Fist Techniques.

As he was about to dodge, unexpected black light flashed in Zhao Ya’s eyes - Ghostly Eye activated.

With the blessing of this Breaking Realm talent, although Zhao Ya’s strength hadn’t changed much, his reaction speed greatly increased.

So before Xie Tianfeng could react, Zhao Ya had already moved close, and in a split second, punched Xie Tianfeng’s chest.

Crack.

The ribs that even the Cold Iron Saber hadn’t severed finally gave way under the punch’s burden.

Additionally, under the tremendous force, the sharp breaks instantly pierced into the viscera.

Xie Tianfeng roared in pain, finally showing a hint of fear in his eyes.

He finally realized that he was facing not a Fifth Realm Martial Artist measurable by common sense but a complete monster.

Otherwise, how to explain his ghostly Body Technique, superior knife techniques, and horrifying Fist Techniques.

Each of these alone could make a powerful martial artist, yet this man had all three.

Could it be that he started practicing martial arts in the womb?

Amidst his doubts, Xie Tianfeng no longer cared about his reputation, leaping back, trying to escape the battlefield using Zhao Ya’s punch.

But in the next instant, a slash of knife light appeared and cut horizontally.

No martial integrity!

This was the last thought that flashed through Xie Tianfeng’s mind before the knife light sliced through, severing his neck like cutting a radish.

Blood spurted skyward, head fell to the ground.

The scene was silent.

Zhao Ya landed, glanced at Xie Tianfeng’s fallen corpse, and casually twirled his knife.

"This thing is still the most effective!"

Then Zhao Ya looked around, seeing many watching him with expressions of shock or disbelief, and smiled slightly.

"Continue fighting, don’t mind me."

Saying that, Zhao Ya rushed towards the camp of the Profound Sun Sect and Noble Families.

This action seemed to press the play button on the paused battlefield.

In an instant, everyone snapped back to reality, and the battle reignited, even more fiercely than before.

However, the situation had greatly reversed.

Previously, the people from the Profound Sun Sect had the upper hand, always on the offensive.

The Capital Prefecture was slightly on the defensive, always guarding.

But now, with the Profound Sun Sect Leader Xie Tianfeng beheaded by Zhao Ya, the Profound Sun Sect’s members were utterly shattered, no longer having any fight left, all wanting to flee.

The Capital Prefecture’s people wouldn’t give up such a rare opportunity, each pursuing relentlessly.
