Chapter 5058
The golden light protecting Tianci’s chest shattered instantly. His entire body was sent flying like a kite with a broken string, crashing into the stone wall and creating a deep pit!
“What?!”
Elder Tong’s pupils shrank, his face filled with disbelief.
The hand that had been leisurely stroking his beard froze mid-air, and several strands were unknowingly torn off.
A third-rank Scattered Immortal had actually repelled a fifth-rank cultivator with a single punch?

Tianci crawled out of the rubble, his face ashen. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.
He looked down at the charred fist imprint on his chest, and a flash of horror appeared in his eyes.
The white-robed woman was equally shocked. She knew Tianci’s strength—he was the pride of Tianyuan Pavilion, someone who could fight above his rank.
And yet, this same Tianci, two whole realms higher than Kai, had just been knocked back by one punch?
Wasn’t this too absurd?
What made it worse was that Tianci had used a weapon, while Kai fought bare-handed.
The gap was obvious. Not using a weapon was practically an insult to Tianci.
Mo Qingyun let out a breath of relief upon seeing Kai defeat Tianci in a single blow. Her admiration for Kai deepened.
After all, what woman wouldn’t fall for a strong and handsome genius like him?
“You’ve got some skill… but unfortunately, it’s not enough!”
Tianci slowly stood up, roaring with rage. The humiliation was unbearable.
He was a prodigy of Tianyuan Pavilion, admired by countless people.
And now, as a fifth-rank Scattered Immortal, he’d been bloodied by a third-rank—and without the opponent even using a weapon.
He spat out a mouthful of blood as golden light surged around him. Behind him, a ten-foot-tall golden figure materialized—a mighty god clad in golden armor, wielding a long halberd, its lightning-like eyes radiating oppressive power.
“A Dharma Body?” Elder Tong frowned at the sight.
As the Dharma Body appeared, the entire ruins trembled. Tianci’s aura surged dramatically, faintly approaching the sixth rank of the Scattered Immortal Realm.
“This guy’s lost it… Using his Dharma Body this early is a huge strain on his body,” Elder Tong muttered.
The white-robed woman looked at the frenzied Tianci and gently shook her head.
“Die!”
Tianci pressed his palms together, and his golden Dharma image mimicked the movement. A colossal golden palm descended from the sky, vast enough to blot out the sun.
The palm’s lines were distinct, and in its center condensed an ancient “Zhen” seal, radiating the power to suppress all things as it slammed toward Kai.
Tianyuan Demon-Suppressing Palm!
This was Tianci’s strongest killing technique. Even before the palm wind arrived, the ground had already begun to collapse, and the stone slabs beneath Kai’s feet cracked inch by inch.
Kai looked up. A flash of seriousness crossed his eyes, but there was no panic.
He swiftly formed hand seals, channeling all the forces in his body. A massive black vortex emerged around him, swirling with cosmic energy—faint stars shimmered within it, as if it could devour all power.
The golden palm slammed down with a thunderous boom, but the moment it touched the black vortex, it began to disintegrate and was slowly absorbed.
The ancient “Zhen” seal trembled violently, then crumbled into countless glowing fragments.
Rumble!
What remained of the palm’s power gouged a ten-foot-deep crater in the ground, sending smoke and dust soaring into the air.
As the dust settled, Kai was still standing. A trace of blood stained the corner of his mouth, and his robe was slightly torn.
“Impossible!”
Tianci was utterly stunned, his face pale as paper. He had used his full strength—and yet Kai endured it!
“Now it’s my turn.”
Kai wiped the blood from his mouth. Suddenly, a Dragon-Slaying Sword appeared in his hand, and the spiritual power within him erupted like a volcano.
With a wave of the blade, thousands of sword shadows burst forth from his body, weaving into a sword net in the sky.
Swish, swish, swish—!
In an instant, the shadows converged into a single massive sword, a hundred feet long. Blood-red dragon patterns coiled along its blade, and a star-like gleam shimmered at its tip. Carrying the momentum of a force capable of splitting heaven and earth, it slashed toward Tianci!
In a panic, Tianci summoned a golden shield to block—but it was cleaved in half by the sword.
